Tx:2.38  ones, but they could not withstand the strength of the attack and  had to be brought back. Angels came, too, but their protection did
Tx:2.38  because the separated ones were not interested in peace. They  had already split their minds and were bent on further dividing

Tx:5.12 God honored even the miscreations of His Children because they  had made them, but He also blessed them with a way of thinking that
Tx:5.18  of His separated Sons. This is the vocation of the mind. The mind  had no calling until the separation, because before that it had only

Tx:5.49  but you did not recognize how to undo their existence because you  had made them.
Tx:5.52 I heard one voice because I  had learned that learning is attained by teaching. I understood that

Tx:6.3  how faithfully you have observed it. It was quite evident that you  had already developed the ability to follow a better model if you

Tx:6.13  that this was only because of the projection of others, because I  had not harmed anyone and had healed many. We are still equal as
Tx:6.13  of the projection of others, because I had not harmed anyone and  had healed many. We are still equal as learners, even though we need
Tx:6.19  crucifixion entirely without anger, because their own sense of guilt  had made them angry.
Tx:6.20  These are not like the several slips into impatience which I made. I  had learned the Atonement prayer, which I also came to teach, too
Tx:6.20  too well to engage in upside-down thinking myself. If the Apostles  had not felt guilty, they never could have quoted me as saying, “I
Tx:6.21  could they have described my reactions to Judas as they did if they  had really understood me. They would have realized I could not have

Tx:6.57  but He teaches only to make you equal with Him. This is because you  had already taught wrongly, having believed what was not true. You
Tx:6.57  did not believe in your own perfection. Could God teach you that you  had made a split mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What

Tx:18.57  it is. Yet this could only be if God were wrong. God would have  had to create differently and to have separated Himself from His Son
Tx:18.57  separated Himself from His Son to make this possible. He would have  had to create different things and to establish different orders of
Tx:18.79  one by one into this holy place, but they will not depart as they  had come, alone. The love they brought with them will stay with them,
Tx:18.93  in the waters of forgiveness, and cleansed of every evil thought you  had laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the Son of God, and
Tx:19.13  offers you faith to give unto each other. Your faithlessness  had driven you apart, and so you did not recognize salvation in each
Tx:19.48  regret. For it is nothing in itself and stood for nothing when you  had greater faith in its protection. Would you not rather greet the
Tx:19.56  at last forgiven me. For I became the symbol of your sin, and so I  had to die instead of you. To the ego sin means death, and so

Tx:27.81  are you to escape effects of all the dreams the world has ever  had? Is it your wish to let no dream appear to be the cause of what

Tx:30.74  and beyond correction or escape. There would be one mistake which  had the power to undo creation and to make a world which could
Tx:30.82  God have left the meaning of the world to your interpretation? If He  had, it has no meaning. For it cannot be that meaning changes
Tx:31.6  to you in every moment of each day, since time began and learning  had been made?

Tx:28.34 Count, then, the silver miracles and golden dreams of  happiness as all the treasures you would keep within the storehouse
Tx:28.46  to have the “benefits” of sickness when he has received the simple  happiness of health? What God has given cannot be a loss, and what is
Tx:28.66 Your home is built upon your brother's health, upon his  happiness, his sinlessness, and everything his Father promised him.
Tx:29.14  with Him. And nowhere else His gifts of peace and joy and all the  happiness His Presence brings can be obtained. For they are where He
Tx:29.20  is. And he must save who would be saved. On saving you depends his  happiness. For who is savior but the one who gives salvation? Thus he
Tx:29.30  to you. Do not ascribe a role to him which you imagine would bring  happiness to you. And do not try to hurt him when he fails to take
Tx:29.42  of God's Son! How free from fear, how filled with blessing and with  happiness! And what a joyous thing it is to dwell a little while in
Tx:29.43  His place. There is no other answer you can substitute and find the  happiness His answer brings. Seek not outside yourself. For all your
Tx:29.43  that you be right or happy? Be you glad that you are told where  happiness abides and seek no longer elsewhere. You will fail. But it
Tx:29.44  dream that there is something outside of himself that will bring  happiness and peace to him. If everything is in him, this cannot be
Tx:29.51  of yourself. Seek not outside your Father for your hope. For hope of  happiness is not despair.
Tx:30.21  is not so. Until this point is reached, you will believe your  happiness depends on being right. But this much reason have you now
Tx:30.30  with and how the friend whose counsel you have sought perceives your  happiness. You always ask advice before you can decide on anything.
Tx:30.32 It needs but two who would have  happiness this day to promise it to all the world. It needs but two
Tx:30.38  limits. They are the belief that there are forms which will bring  happiness and that, by limiting, is all attained. It is as if you
Tx:30.58  of hope because its only purpose is to be a place where hope of  happiness can be fulfilled. And no one stands outside this hope
Tx:30.59  because he is united in his purpose with himself. There is a hope of  happiness in him so sure and constant he can barely stay and wait a
Tx:30.65  Give up the world! But not to sacrifice. You never wanted it. What  happiness have you sought here that did not bring you pain? What
Tx:30.65  has no cost. It is your sacred right, and what you pay for is not  happiness. Be speeded on your way by honesty, and let not your
Tx:31.7  you see. It is a world of terror and despair. Nor is there hope of  happiness in it. There is no plan for safety you can make that ever
Tx:31.26  that occurs. Learn this and learn it well, for it is here delay of  happiness is shortened by a span of time you cannot realize. You
Tx:31.36  learn. For from this lowest point will learning lead to heights of  happiness in which you see the purpose of the lesson shining clear,
Tx:31.39 Think not that  happiness is ever found by following a road away from it. This makes
W1:28.5  you—something beautiful and clean and of infinite value, full of  happiness and hope. Hidden under all your ideas about it is its real
W1:62.4  as those who seem to be far away in space and time to share this  happiness with you.
W1:62.7 Then devote a minute or two to considering your function and the  happiness and release it will bring you.
W1:63.1  you! What purpose could you have that would bring you greater  happiness?
W1:64.4  is because your function is to be happy by using the means by which  happiness becomes inevitable.
W1:64.6  remembering that they are really very simple. Each one will lead to  happiness or unhappiness. Can such a simple decision really be
W1:66.1  on the connection between fulfilling your function and achieving  happiness. This is because you do not really see the connection. Yet
W1:66.2  So does it do constant battle with the Holy Spirit about what your  happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego attacks and the
W1:66.2  respond. He knows what your function is. He knows that it is your  happiness.
W1:66.3  about what it is. We will not become hopelessly involved in defining  happiness and determining the means for achieving it. We will not
W1:66.4  a very real connection between the function God gave you and your  happiness, but that they are actually identical. God gives you only
W1:66.4  happiness, but that they are actually identical. God gives you only  happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be happiness, even
W1:66.4  gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be  happiness, even if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are
W1:66.6 God gives me only  happiness. He has given my function to me. Therefore my function must
W1:66.6  He has given my function to me. Therefore my function must be  happiness.
W1:66.8 The first premise is that God gives you only  happiness. This could be false, of course, but in order to be false
W1:66.8  God as something He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not  happiness is evil. God cannot give what He does not have, and He
W1:66.8  have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless God gives you only  happiness, He must be evil. And it is this definition of Him which
W1:66.12  fairly and consider also whether it was ever reasonable to expect  happiness from anything the ego ever proposed. Yet the ego is the
W1:66.15 My  happiness and function are one because God has given me both.
W1:69.9  possible in view of the importance of today's idea to you and your  happiness, remind yourself that your grievances are hiding the light
W1:73.7 Suffering is not  happiness, and it is happiness you really want. Such is your will in
W1:73.7 Suffering is not happiness, and it is  happiness you really want. Such is your will in truth. And so
W1:83.5 [66] My  happiness and my function are one. All things that come from God are
W1:83.5  Oneness and must be received as one. Fulfilling my function is my  happiness because both come from the same Source. And I must learn to
W1:83.5  And I must learn to recognize what makes me happy if I would find  happiness.
W1:83.7 This cannot separate my  happiness from my function. The oneness of my happiness and my
W1:83.7 This cannot separate my happiness from my function. The oneness of my  happiness and my function remains wholly unaffected by this. Nothing,
W1:83.7  by this. Nothing, including this, can justify the illusion of  happiness apart from my function.
W1:92.6 Truth is a savior and can only will for  happiness and peace for everyone. It gives its strength to everyone
W1:95.19 Do not forget today. We need your help, your little part in bringing  happiness to all the world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence
W1:96.5  with itself. Without its function then, it has no peace, and  happiness is alien to its thoughts.
W1:98.5  worth five minutes of your time each hour to be able to accept the  happiness that God has given you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly
W1:98.11  you to understand your special function. He will open up the way to  happiness, and peace and trust will be His gifts, His answer to your
W1:100.2 God's Will for you is perfect  happiness. Why should you choose to go against His Will? The part
W1:100.2  to what He wills. This part is as essential to His plan as to your  happiness. Your joy must be complete to let His plan be understood by
W1:100.4  heals sorrow and despair. They are the proof that God wills perfect  happiness for all who will accept their Father's gifts as theirs.
W1:100.5  to you by God. Thus do you fail to show the world how great the  happiness He wills for you. And so you do not recognize that it is
W1:100.7 You are God's messenger today. You bring His  happiness to all you look upon, His peace to everyone who looks on
W1:100.7  for this today in our five minute practice periods by feeling  happiness arise in us according to our Father's Will and ours.
W1:101.1 Today we will continue with the theme of  happiness. This is a key idea in understanding what salvation means.
W1:101.2 If sin is real then  happiness must be illusion, for they cannot both be true. The sinful
W1:101.6  it is the basis for today's idea. God's Will for you is perfect  happiness because there is no sin, and suffering is causeless. Joy is
W1:101.8 God's Will for me is perfect  happiness. There is no sin; it has no consequence.
W1:101.11 God's Will for me is perfect  happiness. This is the truth because there is no sin.
W1:102.3  longer practice periods to exercises planned to help you reach the  happiness God's Will has placed in you. Here is your home, and here
W1:102.5 I share God's Will for  happiness for me, and I accept it as my function now.
W1:102.7 Be happy, for your only function here is  happiness. You have no need to be less loving to God's Son than He
W1:102.7  pause frequently today to tell yourself that you have now accepted  happiness as your one function. And be sure that you are joining with
W1:103.1  Happiness is an attribute of love. It cannot be apart from it, nor
W1:103.2 This strange belief would limit  happiness by redefining love as limited and introducing opposition in
W1:103.4 God, being Love, is also  happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of joy.
W1:103.5  which corrects the false belief that God is fear. It also emphasizes  happiness belongs to you because of what He is.
W1:103.6  placed within your mind each waking hour today. Then welcome all the  happiness it brings, as truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you
W1:103.7 God, being Love, is also  happiness. And it is happiness I seek today. I cannot fail because I
W1:103.7 God, being Love, is also happiness. And it is  happiness I seek today. I cannot fail because I seek the truth.
W1:106.3  truth. Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your  happiness within His hand, held out to you in welcome and in love.
W1:109.1  all the turmoil born of clashing dreams. We ask for safety and for  happiness, although we seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we

W1:116.2 [101] God's Will for me is perfect  happiness. God's Will is perfect happiness for me. And I can suffer
W1:116.2 [101] God's Will for me is perfect happiness. God's Will is perfect  happiness for me. And I can suffer but from the belief there is
W1:116.3 [102] I share God's Will for  happiness for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His Son. What He
W1:116.5 God's Will for me is perfect  happiness.
W1:116.7 I share God's Will for  happiness for me.
W1:117.2 [103] God, being Love, is also  happiness. Let me remember love is happiness and nothing else brings
W1:117.2 [103] God, being Love, is also happiness. Let me remember love is  happiness and nothing else brings joy. And so I choose to entertain
W1:117.5 God, being Love, is also  happiness.
W1:118.2  joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes which I have made for  happiness and peace.
W1:121.8  forgive. If you are willing, you can learn today to take the key to  happiness and use it on your own behalf. We will devote ten minutes
W1:121.13  not forget throughout the day the role forgiveness plays in bringing  happiness to every unforgiving mind, with yours among them. Every
W1:121.14 Forgiveness is the key to  happiness. I will awaken from the dream that I am mortal, fallible,
W1:122.1  cannot give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want  happiness, a quiet mind, a certainty of purpose, and a sense of worth
W1:122.2  and attack. And when you wake again, it offers you another day of  happiness and peace. All this forgiveness offers you, and more.
W1:122.11 Sink into  happiness as you begin these practice periods, for they hold out the
W1:124.3  equal love in which we were created, smiles on us and offers us the  happiness we gave. Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor
W1:133.2  buy, to eminence as valued by the world, you ask for sorrow, not for  happiness. This course does not attempt to take from you the little
W1:135.21  to be its own. And it will lead you on in ways appointed for your  happiness according to the ancient plan begun when time was born.
W1:135.28  believe would benefit you most. For you cannot conceive of all the  happiness that comes to you without your planning. Learn today. And
W1:136.13  plan defenses which would alter it. Truth merely wants to give you  happiness, for such its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a little when
W1:139.8  us not forget the goal that we accepted. It is more than just our  happiness alone we came to gain. What we accept as what we are
W1:R4.11  them be the messages they are. We need no more than this to give us  happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all our
W1:R4.12  the thought that made the day a special time of blessing and of  happiness for us and through our faithfulness restored the world from
W1:141.1 [121] Forgiveness is the key to  happiness.
W1:151.14  them back as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness and the  happiness God wills His Son as proof of His eternal Love. And as each
W1:153.8  the endless joy our function offers us. We would not let our  happiness slip by because a senseless fragment of a dream happened to
W1:153.10  be with them. Who is holier than they? Who could be surer that his  happiness is fully guaranteed? And who could be more mightily
W1:153.12  teach them that the game of fear is gone. His game instructs in  happiness because there is no loser. Everyone who plays must win, and
W1:155.7  lead your brothers from the ways of death and set them on the way to  happiness. Their suffering is but illusion. Yet they need a guide to
W1:159.6  with perfect certainty for everything that can contribute to your  happiness. All are laid here already. All can be received but for the
W1:162.2 Here is the Word by which the Son became His Father's  happiness, His Love, and His completion. Here creation is proclaimed
W1:165.1  What but your thoughts of misery and death obscure the perfect  happiness and the Eternal Life your Father wills for you? And what
W1:165.2  soft your resting place and smooth your way, lighting your mind with  happiness and love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in your mind
W1:166.1  without exception, holding nothing back that can contribute to your  happiness. And yet unless your will is one with His, His gifts are
W1:166.13  is another way for them to walk. Teach them by showing them the  happiness that comes to those who feel the touch of Christ and
W1:166.15  everyone. God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in your  happiness to how transformed the mind becomes which chooses to accept
W1:185.8  Consider but what you believe will comfort you and bring you  happiness. But be you not dismayed by lingering illusions, for their
W1:191.5  he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the way to  happiness that changed his whole perception of the world.
W1:193.1  His Will extends to what He does not understand in that He wills the  happiness His Son inherited of Him be undisturbed, eternal and
W1:195.2  all pain is healed and suffering replaced with laughter and with  happiness. Nor could the even partly sane refuse to take the steps
W1:199.8  practice brings even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and  happiness each time you say:
W1:200.2  which each one must come at last, to lay aside all hope of finding  happiness where there is none, of being saved by what can only hurt,
W1:200.3 Yet you can ask as easily for love, for  happiness, and for eternal life in peace that has no ending. Ask for
W1:200.4 Come home. You have not found your  happiness in foreign places and in alien forms which have no meaning

W2:235.1  in mind my Father's Will for me is only happiness to find that only  happiness has come to me. And I need but remember that His Love

W2:WIB.3 The body is a dream. Like other dreams, it sometimes seems to picture  happiness but can quite suddenly revert to fear, where every dream is
W2:272.1  by Your will and mine. Can dreams content me? Can illusions bring me  happiness? What but Your memory can satisfy Your Son? I will accept
W2:281.1  and that he is as You created him. Your Thoughts can only bring me  happiness. If ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten what You
W2:287.1 Where would I go but Heaven? What could be a substitute for  happiness? What gift could I prefer before the peace of God? What
W2:290.1 Unless I look upon what is not there, my present  happiness is all I see. Eyes that begin to open see at last. And I
W2:290.1  I made is real an instant longer. This the day I seek my present  happiness and look on nothing else except the thing I seek.
W2:290.2  I ask have You already given me, and I am sure that I will see my  happiness today.
W2:307.1  it is senseless and will cause me pain. Your will alone can bring me  happiness, and only Yours exists. If I would have what only You can

Tx:13.54 The Holy Spirit needs a  happy learner in whom His mission can be happily accomplished. You

Tx:13.54  can never do, believing that unless you learn it, you will not be  happy. You do not realize that the foundation on which this most
Tx:13.59  what you have made, they see in you more than you see. They will be  happy learners of the lesson which this light brings to them because
Tx:13.60  so you learn that what seemed hardest was the easiest. Learn to be  happy learners. You will never learn how to make nothing everything.
Tx:13.61 If you would be a  happy learner, you must give everything that you have learned over to
Tx:13.62 The  happy learner meets the conditions of learning here, as he also meets
Tx:13.64  the same as that which interferes with all your thinking. The  happy learner cannot feel guilty about learning. This is so essential
Tx:13.65  for without both, you do not see yourselves as whole and therefore  happy. Yet you are whole only in your guiltlessness, and only in your
Tx:13.65  in your guiltlessness, and only in your guiltlessness can you be  happy. There is no conflict here. To wish for guilt in any way, in
Tx:13.66  you are deciding against your happiness and will not learn how to be  happy. Say therefore to yourself gently, but with the conviction born

Tx:17.28  them by God. The function you have given them is clearly not to make  happy. But the holy relationship shares God's purpose, rather than

Tx:18.23  the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of  happy dreams from which awaking is so easy and so natural. For as

Tx:21.5  it would, the learning of it would be no problem. You are not  happy learners yet because you still remain uncertain that vision
Tx:21.17  of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal. Be  happy, and you gave the power of decision to Him Who must decide for

Tx:30.14  when once you have decided by yourself the rules which promise you a  happy day. Yet this decision still can be undone by simple methods
Tx:30.28 It must be clear that it is easier to have a  happy day if you prevent unhappiness from entering at all. But this
Tx:30.29 We said you can begin a  happy day with the determination not to make decisions by yourself.
Tx:30.32  Your judgment has been lifted from the world by your decision for a  happy day. And as you have received, so must you give.

W1:140.3 The  happy dreams the Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming
W1:140.3  another form of sleep, so that the dreamer dreams another dream. His  happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of truth upon the mind. They

Tx:7.46  it is inspired by His Voice and is in accord with His laws. Yet if  healing is consistence, it cannot be inconsistently understood.
Tx:7.47  His teaching is limited, because he is learning so little. His  healing lesson is limited by his own ingratitude, which is a lesson

Tx:10.19  Healing is a sign that he wants to make whole. And this willingness
Tx:10.19  whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far beyond the  healing you would undertake, for beside your small willingness to
Tx:10.40 What is  healing but the removal of all that stands in the way of knowledge?
Tx:10.84  his Father accepts him and heal him unto Christ, for Christ is his  healing and yours. Christ is the Son of God, who is in no way
Tx:10.85  you will give it because you want it. Nothing will be beyond your  healing power because nothing will be denied your simple request.
Tx:10.86  himself, for his split mind is yours, and you will not accept your  healing without his. For you share the real world as you share
Tx:10.86  his. For you share the real world as you share Heaven, and his  healing is yours. To love yourself is to heal yourself, and you
Tx:10.87  guidance, for He would save you from all condemnation. Accept His  healing power and use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal
Tx:11.3  part. Every loving thought is true. Everything else is an appeal for  healing and help. That is what it is, regardless of the form it
Tx:11.4  “battles” with reality in which you deny the reality of the need for  healing by making it unreal. You would not do this except for your
Tx:11.15  remembered alone. This is what you have forgotten. To perceive the  healing of your brother as the healing of yourself is thus the way to
Tx:11.15  you have forgotten. To perceive the healing of your brother as the  healing of yourself is thus the way to remember God. For you forgot
Tx:11.16  brother as yourself. Answer his call for love and yours is answered.  Healing is the love of Christ for His Father and for Himself.
Tx:11.64  As your function in Heaven is creation, so your function on earth is  healing. God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the Holy
Tx:12.16  in this mind is so apparent when it is uncovered that its need of  healing cannot be denied. Not all the tricks and games you offer it
Tx:12.17 And yet he is not crucified. Here is both his pain and his  healing, for the Holy Spirit's vision is merciful, and His remedy is
Tx:12.19  Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His  healing power, for by not offering total love, you will not be healed
Tx:12.19  for by not offering total love, you will not be healed completely.  Healing must be as complete as fear, for love cannot enter where
Tx:12.23  is about you. You have been told that your function in this world is  healing, and your function in Heaven is creating. The ego teaches
Tx:12.32  interpret yours. If you accept your function in the world of time as  healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of time in which healing
Tx:12.32  time as healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of time in which  healing can occur. For healing cannot be accomplished in the past and
Tx:12.32  emphasize only the aspect of time in which healing can occur. For  healing cannot be accomplished in the past and must be accomplished
Tx:12.50  the present, for it holds the only things that are forever true. All  healing lies within it because its continuity is real. It extends to
Tx:12.53  witnesses to His creation. Those whom you heal bear witness to your  healing, for in their wholeness you will see your own. And as your
Tx:12.76  sorrow from the Mind of God's most holy Son, where it cannot abide.  Healing in time is needed, for joy cannot establish its eternal reign
Tx:13.5  thus brings you nearer to the end of time by bringing healed and  healing sight into the darkness and enabling the world to see. For
Tx:13.7 Be you content with  healing, for Christ's gift you can bestow, and your Father's gift you
Tx:13.9  as are the miracles which you created in His name. They need no  healing, nor do you when you know them.
Tx:13.26  done so. He has seen separation, but knows of union. He teaches  healing, but He also knows of creation. He would have you see and
Tx:13.69  that comes from choosing to be free of guilt. Everyone you offer  healing to returns it. Everyone you attack keeps it and cherishes it
Tx:14.9  the guiltlessness which must have been denied to produce need of  healing. Do not withhold this glad acknowledgment, for hope of
Tx:14.17  love's beneficence. What is kept apart from love cannot share its  healing power, because it has been separated off and kept in
Tx:14.44 Could you but realize for a single instant the power of  healing that the reflection of God, shining in you, can bring to all
Tx:14.44  perceives it as the same. All bring their different problems to its  healing light, but all their problems are met only with healing there.
Tx:14.44  to its healing light, but all their problems are met only with  healing there.
Tx:14.45  no contradiction in what holiness calls forth. Its one response is  healing, without regard for what is brought to it. Those who have
Tx:14.45  for what is brought to it. Those who have learned to offer only  healing because of the reflection of holiness in them are ready at
Tx:15.103  you. Let yourself be healed completely that you may join with Him in  healing, and let us celebrate our release together by releasing
Tx:16.1  the ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, knowing that  healing pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts to enter into
Tx:16.3  to hurt it nor to heal it in your own way. You do not know what  healing is. All you have learned of empathy is from the past. And
Tx:16.3  the past real and so perpetuate it. Step gently aside and let the  healing be done for you. Keep but one thought in mind and do not lose
Tx:16.7  which hovers over it and blesses it silently by enveloping it in  healing wings. Let this be, and do not try to substitute your
Tx:17.42  alike on all relationships, for in it they are one. For here is only  healing, already complete and perfect. For here is God, and where He
Tx:18.13  limits and reaches out to every broken fragment of the Sonship with  healing and uniting comfort. This is offered you in your holy
Tx:18.94  does make lovely, but it does not create. It is the source of  healing, but it is the messenger of love and not its Source. Here you
Tx:19.2  which makes this purpose real because you make it whole. And this is  healing. The body is healed because you came without it and joined
Tx:19.2  healed because you came without it and joined the mind in which all  healing rests.
Tx:19.3 The body cannot heal because it cannot make itself sick. It needs no  healing. Its health or sickness depends entirely on how the mind
Tx:19.4  the body will seem to be sick, for you have made of it an “enemy” of  healing and the opposite of truth.
Tx:19.7 Here then is  healing needed. And it is here that healing is. For God gave healing
Tx:19.7 Here then is healing needed. And it is here that  healing is. For God gave healing not apart from sickness, nor
Tx:19.7  then is healing needed. And it is here that healing is. For God gave  healing not apart from sickness, nor established remedy where
Tx:19.14  No error interferes with its calm sight, which brings the miracle of  healing with equal ease to all of them. For what the messengers of
Tx:19.33 If sin were real, it would forever be beyond the hope of  healing. For there would be a power beyond God's, capable of making
Tx:19.36  upon each other as yourself. Your relationship is now a temple of  healing—a place where all the weary ones can come and find rest.
Tx:19.37  and freedom to everyone who draws nigh unto your temple, where  healing waits for him.
Tx:20.74  disappear when they are recognized for what they are. This is the  healing and the remedy. Believe them not, and they are gone. And all
Tx:21.64 If you choose sin instead of  healing, you would condemn the Son of God to what can never be
Tx:21.77  or helplessness, is the choice of whether to attack or heal. For  healing comes of power and attack of helplessness. Whom you attack
Tx:22.54  Neither of you alone can serve at all. Only in your joint will does  healing lie. For here your healing is and here will you accept
Tx:22.54  at all. Only in your joint will does healing lie. For here your  healing is and here will you accept Atonement. And in your healing is
Tx:22.54  here your healing is and here will you accept Atonement. And in your  healing is the Sonship healed because your wills are joined.
Tx:22.59  that God has given Him to make each little gift of love a source of  healing for everyone. Each little gift you offer to the other lights
Tx:23.50  attracts you and that you do not recognize for what it is limits the  healing and the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet
Tx:24.36  to miracles. For miracles are merely change of purpose from hurt to  healing.
Tx:24.49  of the night. He is your savior from the dreams of fear. He is the  healing of your sense of sacrifice and fear that what you have will
Tx:24.52 Forget not that the  healing of God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only
Tx:24.52  Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see the  healing of the Son as all you wish to be accomplished by the world,
Tx:25.3 The body needs no  healing. But the mind that thinks it is a body is sick indeed! And it
Tx:25.83  one deserves to lose. And what would be unjust to him cannot occur.  Healing must be for everyone because he does not merit an attack of
Tx:25.83  from others as less worthy, more condemned, and thus apart from  healing. Who is there who can be separate from salvation if its
Tx:25.83  if some errors are unforgivable and warrant vengeance in place of  healing and return of peace?
Tx:25.84  bears no witness to. And everyone is equally entitled to His gift of  healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the Holy
Tx:26.14  which has no resolution, you have made it great and past the hope of  healing. You deny the miracle of justice can be fair.
Tx:26.47 This is a course in miracles. And as such, the laws of  healing must be understood before the purpose of the course can be
Tx:26.47  and arrange them in a way that summarizes all that must occur for  healing to be possible. For when it once is possible, it must occur.
Tx:26.51  some are given greater value and less willingly offered to truth for  healing and for help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears
Tx:26.52  that it is real has made some errors seem forever past the hope of  healing and the lasting grounds for hell. If this were so, would
Tx:26.61  cause and consequence are brought together, not kept separate. The  healing of effect without the cause can merely shift effects to other
Tx:26.62  justify a miracle, whatever form they took. In every miracle all  healing lies, for God gave answer to them all as one. And what is one
Tx:26.64 In crucifixion is redemption laid, for  healing is not needed where there is no pain or suffering.
Tx:26.72  And in overlooking this, is it protected and kept separate from  healing. For a miracle is now. It stands already here in present
Tx:27.6  sting of fear. Attest his innocence and not his guilt. Your  healing is his comfort and his health because it proves illusions are
Tx:27.11  is Heaven free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect  healing take the place of death. The body can become a sign of life,
Tx:27.11  grown sick of breathing in the fetid scent of death. Let it have  healing as its purpose. Then will it send forth the message it
Tx:27.13 Is  healing frightening? To many, yes. For accusation is a bar to love,
Tx:27.15  be for one and not the other. Who forgives is healed. And in his  healing lies the proof that he has truly pardoned and retains no
Tx:27.16 Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a  healing to your brother and yourself. You must attest his sins had no
Tx:27.16  A broken body shows the mind has not been healed. A miracle of  healing proves that separation is without effect. What you would
Tx:27.17  to teach that it has never suffered pain because of him. And in its  healing can it offer him mute testimony of his innocence. It is this
Tx:27.17  offer nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So does your  healing show your mind is healed and has forgiven what he did not do.
Tx:27.18  and so he stands condemned. Yet it is given you to show him by your  healing that his guilt is but the fabric of a senseless dream.
Tx:27.19  of full deliverance from guilt upon your brother and yourself. Your  healing saves him pain as well as you, and you are healed because you
Tx:27.19  because you wished him well. This is the law the miracle obeys; that  healing sees no specialness at all. It does not come from pity but
Tx:27.20  that your salvation sacrifices his. The Holy Spirit knows your  healing is the witness unto his and cannot be apart from his at all.
Tx:27.20  his suffering is purposeless and wholly without cause. Show him your  healing, and he will consent no more to suffer. For his innocence has
Tx:27.21 Who then fears  healing? Only those to whom their brother's sacrifice and pain are
Tx:27.21  to reason with an argument for sickness such as this? And need your  healing be delayed because you pause to listen to insanity?
Tx:27.27  being made aware of any function other than Its own. And thus is  healing given both of you.
Tx:27.44  help, but you are needed that it can begin. Accept the miracle of  healing, and it will go forth because of what it is. It is its nature
Tx:27.45  Your single purpose makes this possible. But if you are afraid of  healing, then it cannot come through you. The only thing that is
Tx:27.45  it cannot come through you. The only thing that is required for a  healing is a lack of fear. The fearful are not healed and cannot
Tx:27.45  gone forever from your mind. For if it were, there'd be no need for  healing then. But it does mean, if only for an instant, you love
Tx:27.46  that one instant are you healed, and in that single instant is all  healing done.
Tx:27.48  sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's face instead.  Healing replaces suffering. Who looks on one cannot perceive the
Tx:27.49 Thus is your  healing everything the world requires that it may be healed. It needs
Tx:27.50  And thus while he perceives it, he can not perceive it as it is. But  healing is apparent in specific instances and generalizes to include
Tx:27.51 Your  healing will extend and will be brought to problems that you thought
Tx:27.51  from situations to their opposites and bring the same results. All  healing must proceed in lawful manner in accord with laws which have
Tx:27.53 Peace be to you to whom is  healing offered. And you will learn that peace is given you when you
Tx:27.53  And you will learn that peace is given you when you accept the  healing for yourself. Its total value need not be appraised by you to
Tx:27.53  love entered in without attack will stay with you forever. Your  healing will be one of its effects, as will your brother's.
Tx:27.53  by merely counting up its separate parts. God thanks you for your  healing, for He knows it is a gift of love unto His Son, and
Tx:27.59  and the throes of death itself are but a single sound—a call for  healing and a plaintive cry for help within a world of misery. It is
Tx:27.61 The resurrection of the world awaits your  healing and your happiness, that you may demonstrate the healing of
Tx:27.61  awaits your healing and your happiness, that you may demonstrate the  healing of the world. The holy instant will replace all sin if you
Tx:28.3 Nothing employed for  healing represents an effort to do anything at all. It is a
Tx:28.3  to interfere with truth. All things the Holy Spirit can employ for  healing have been given Him, without the content and the purposes for
Tx:28.10  more have you. And so your innocence has not been lost. You need no  healing to be healed. In quietness, see in the miracle a lesson in
Tx:28.17  by its effects, which are as limitless as is itself. Yet must all  healing come about because the mind is recognized as not within the
Tx:28.17  the body, and its innocence is quite apart from it and where all  healing is. Where then is healing? Only where its cause is given its
Tx:28.17  is quite apart from it and where all healing is. Where then is  healing? Only where its cause is given its effects. For sickness is a
Tx:28.18  Love's effect and must be cause because of what he is. The cause of  healing is the only Cause of everything. It has but one effect. And
Tx:28.19  depending on the purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of  healing or for dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in that it
Tx:28.29  brother's mind prevents the cause of sickness and perceived effects.  Healing is the effect of minds which join, as sickness comes from
Tx:28.35  there. And sickness will be seen without a cause. The dream of  healing in forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you never
Tx:28.46  all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will place the miracle of  healing where the seeds of sickness were. And there will be no loss,
Tx:28.58  not his tiny oath to be forever faithful unto death. And by his  healing is his brother healed.
Tx:28.61  your wholeness and your health, the Source of help, the Call to  healing, and the Call to heal? Your savior waits for healing, and the
Tx:28.61  the Call to healing, and the Call to heal? Your savior waits for  healing, and the world waits with him. Nor are you apart from it. For
Tx:28.61  and the world waits with him. Nor are you apart from it. For  healing will be one or not at all, its oneness being where the
Tx:28.61  For healing will be one or not at all, its oneness being where the  healing lies. What could correct for separation but its opposite?
Tx:28.63  Nor is it idly blamed for what it did not do. It serves to help the  healing of God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It will
Tx:30.76  which appearances are true. If one appearance must remain apart from  healing, one illusion must be part of truth. And you could not escape
Tx:30.92  heal all dreams. There is no miracle you cannot have when you desire  healing. But there is no miracle that can be given you unless you
W1:70.4  His. He wants you to be healed, and so He has kept the Source of  healing where the need for healing lies. You have tried to do just
W1:70.4  healed, and so He has kept the Source of healing where the need for  healing lies. You have tried to do just the opposite, making every
W1:70.4  attempt, however distorted and fantastic it might be, to separate  healing from the sickness for which it was intended and thus keep the

W1:97.6  everywhere He knows they will be welcome. And they will increase in  healing power each time someone accepts them as his thoughts and uses
W1:107.6  of pain but looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of  healing, for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no attack is
W1:109.6  that has passed away. Let it be still and thankfully accept its  healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God.
W1:110.5 The  healing power of today's idea is limitless. It is the birthplace of
W1:126.10  Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the Voice of truth and  healing speak to you, and you will understand the words He speaks and
W1:132.8 But  healing is the gift of those who are prepared to learn there is no
W1:132.19 You need not realize that  healing comes to many brothers far across the world as well as to the
W1:135.11 These are the thoughts in need of  healing, and the body will respond with health when they have been
W1:135.11  distress of mind. You do not heal but merely take away the hope of  healing, for you fail to see where hope must lie if it be meaningful.
W1:136.1  intent of any kind, it cannot be at all. When this is seen,  healing is automatic. It dispels this meaningless illusion by the
W1:136.16  for just this invitation which we give today. We introduce it with a  healing prayer to help us rise above defensiveness and let truth be
W1:136.18  Healing will flash across your open mind as peace and truth arise to
W1:137.1  idea remains the central thought on which salvation rests. For  healing is the opposite of all the world's ideas which dwell on
W1:137.2  cannot surmount. The world obeys the laws that sickness serves, but  healing operates apart from them.
W1:137.3  be healed alone. In sickness must he be apart and separate. But  healing is his own decision to be one again and to accept his Self
W1:137.3  to be dismembered and without the unity that gives it life. But  healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no power to attack
W1:137.4 Sickness would prove that lies must be the truth. But  healing demonstrates that truth is true. The separation sickness
W1:137.4  to illusions must be shown that what they look upon is false. So  healing, never needed by the truth, must demonstrate that sickness is
W1:137.5  Healing might thus be called a counter-dream which cancels out the
W1:137.5  Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were accomplished,  healing but removes illusions that have not occurred. Just as the
W1:137.5  world will arise to take the place of what has never been at all,  healing but offers restitution for imagined states and false ideas
W1:137.6 Yet think not  healing is unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ becomes
W1:137.7  sin and the real world will occupy the place of what you made, so  healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before
W1:137.8  Healing is freedom. For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail
W1:137.8  For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the truth.  Healing is shared. And by this attribute, it proves that laws unlike
W1:137.8  sickness is inevitable are more potent than their sickly opposites.  Healing is strength. For by its gentle hand is weakness overcome. And
W1:137.9  Healing, forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the world of
W1:137.10  nor realize how great your offering to all the world when you let  healing come to you. But you are never healed alone. And legions upon
W1:137.11 Those who are healed become the instruments of  healing. Nor does time elapse between the instant they are healed and
W1:137.11  time elapse between the instant they are healed and all the grace of  healing it is given them to give. What is opposed to God does not
W1:137.12  Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of  healing will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet
W1:137.13  our function is to let our minds be healed that we may carry  healing to the world, exchanging curse for blessing, pain for joy,
W1:137.15 When I am healed, I am not healed alone. And I would share my  healing with the world, that sickness may be banished from the mind
W1:137.16 Let  healing be through you this very day. And as you rest in quiet, be
W1:140.1  from the body, where it thinks the mind exists. Its forms of  healing thus must substitute illusion for illusion. One belief in
W1:140.6  does it seek to heal what is not sick, unmindful where the need for  healing is. This is no magic. It is merely an appeal to truth which
W1:140.7 Let us not try today to seek to cure what cannot suffer sickness.  Healing must be sought but where it is and then applied to what is
W1:140.8  another shift among them. We will try today to find the source of  healing, which is in our minds because our Father placed it there for
W1:140.9  us as sick. We go beyond appearances today and reach the source of  healing from which nothing is exempt. We will succeed to the extent
W1:140.10  form they took. We will be still and listen for the Voice of  healing which will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the
W1:140.14  it is real. This will we learn today. And we will say our prayer for  healing hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the
W1:140.14  be given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the day when  healing comes to us. This is the day when separation ends and we
W1:151.14  eternal Love. And as each thought is thus transformed, it takes on  healing power from the Mind Which saw the truth in it and failed to
W1:159.2 You understand that you are healed when you give  healing. You accept forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when you
W1:164.6  looks back on them in a new light. And what you see becomes the  healing and salvation of the world. The valuable and valueless are
W1:165.3 Who would deny his safety and his peace, his joy, his  healing and his peace of mind, his quiet rest, his calm awakening if
W1:166.14  Your tears are theirs. If you are sick, you but withhold their  healing. What you fear but teaches them their fears are justified.
W1:167.3  about yourself. It is the reason you can heal. It is the cause of  healing. It is why you cannot die. Its truth established you as one
W1:193.15  about all things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart from  healing. Let us give them all to Him Who knows the way to look upon
W1:196.1  yourself. And you will understand his safety is your own, and in his  healing you are healed.
W2:WS.2  and merely was. But when the mind is split, there is a need of  healing. So the thought which has the power to heal the split became
W2:270.2  everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through His sight, we offer  healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created
W2:275.1  apart. It is in this that all things are protected. And in this the  healing of the Voice of God is found.
W2:275.2 Your  healing Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to
W2:323.1  doubt and freely let Your Love come streaming in to his awareness,  healing him of pain and giving him Your own eternal joy. Such is the
W2:WIM.5 Miracles fall like drops of  healing rain from Heaven on a dry and dusty world, where starved and
W2:349.1  me a miracle to give. And giving as I would receive, I learn Your  healing miracles belong to me.

M:6.2  No teacher of God should feel disappointed if he has offered  healing and it does not appear to have been received. It is not up to

M:7.1 This question really answers itself.  Healing cannot be repeated. If the patient is healed, what remains to
M:7.1  If the patient is healed, what remains to heal him from? And if the  healing is certain, as we have already said it is, what is there to

Tx:24.44  strength their purpose holds is given them. And what they see and  hear and hold and lead is given light that you may lead as you were

Tx:24.46  their sightless eyes and sings to them of Heaven that their ears may  hear no more the sound of battle and of death. He reaches through
Tx:24.46  Christ is all there is to see. The song of Christ is all there is to  hear. The hand of Christ is all there is to hold. There is no journey
Tx:24.70  that it is there because you still can feel it with your hands and  hear it move. Here is an image that you want to be yourself. It is
Tx:25.28  his anger turned to an event which justifies his love. He will  hear plainly that the calls to war he heard before are really calls
Tx:25.39  And hate because there is no sin in him for you to see. Nor do you  hear his plaintive call, unchanged in content in whatever form the
Tx:25.39  shrieks, such is the call that God has given him that you might  hear in him His Call to you and answer by returning unto God what is
Tx:26.6  Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been lost.  Hear then the song your brother sings to you. And let the world

W1:125.3 In stillness we will  hear God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts,
W1:125.4  Hear, holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you
W1:125.6  to be called upon today to help make ready your most holy mind to  hear the Voice of its Creator speak.
W1:125.9  your vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You will  hear the Word in which the Will of God the Son joins in His Father's
W1:126.10  what it really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to  hear the Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you will

W1:140.11  and thus delay the time when we can hear our Father speak to us. We  hear Him now. We come to Him today.

W1:151.15  the holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you  hear the Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will

W1:154.3 It is through His ability to  hear One Voice Which is His own that you become aware at last there
W1:154.10  minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our voice we  hear as we attend Him. He alone can speak to us and for us, joining
W1:155.6  them. Yet it has stepped back, and it is not illusion that they  hear you speak of nor illusion which you bring their eyes to look on
W1:160.8  His Son forever. He has answered you who ask, “Who is the stranger?”  Hear His Voice assure you, quietly and sure, that you are not a

W1:161.15 And He will answer Whom you called upon, for He will  hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now

W1:169.3  aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that an open mind can  hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against God's Voice. It

W1:182.7  alien thoughts. His patience has no limits. He will wait until you  hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to let Him go in peace
W1:182.8  ideas cease to have value in your restless mind, then will you  hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not
W1:182.12  this you yearn. This is your heart's desire. This is the Voice you  hear, and this the Call which cannot be denied. The holy Child
W1:183.3  healed of their sickly thoughts. The blind can see; the deaf can  hear; the sorrowful cast off their mourning, and the tears of pain
W1:183.7  Hear nothing else. Let all your thoughts become anchored on this. No
W1:183.8  idols cherished by the world. They cannot reach Him thus. He cannot  hear requests that He be not Himself or that His Son receive another
W1:186.5  which might affront their stance. Yet are the humble free to  hear the Voice which tells them what they are and what to do.
W1:186.12  inconsistent and unsure of everything? Let not its voice direct you.  Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a function given you
W1:191.11  and devastated dreams, born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain,  hear this: all power is given you in earth and Heaven. There is
W1:195.7  in our memory and gathers clarity as we are willing once again to  hear.
W1:198.5  His gift with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself to  hear His Voice and learn the simple lessons He would teach, instead
W1:198.6  born in God, and come to you with Heaven's love upon them. Those who  hear His words have heard the song of Heaven, for these are the words
W1:199.9 I am not a body. I am free. I  hear the Voice that God has given me, and it is only this my mind
W1:200.9  let him stray forever from his home. The Father calls; the Son will  hear. And that is all there is to what appears to be a world apart
W2:221.1  and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to  hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will
W2:221.1  hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will  hear my call and answer me.
W2:221.2  we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will  hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We
W2:221.2  for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent—to  hear our Father's answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still
W2:221.2  to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to  hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His
W2:226.2 Father, my home awaits my glad return. Your arms are open, and I  hear Your Voice. What need have I to linger in a place of vain
W2:232.1  that You have remained with me and always will be there to  hear my call to You and answer me. As evening comes, let all my
W2:237.1  the day. I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I  hear as God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that
W2:WIW.2  could not cause such insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears  hear falsely. Now mistakes become quite possible, for certainty has
W2:WIW.4  to the world. Follow His light and see the world as He beholds it.  Hear His Voice alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him give you
W2:245.2  world we give the message that we have received. And thus we come to  hear the Voice of God, Who speaks to us as we relate His Word, Whose
W2:WIS.1  What need have they of sights or sounds or touch? What would they  hear or reach to grasp? What would they sense at all? To sense is not
W2:254.1 Father, today I would but  hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to hear Your
W2:254.1  but hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to  hear Your Voice and to receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this:
W2:256.2  we come to You in Your appointed way. We have no goal except to  hear Your Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has pointed out to
W2:264.1  everywhere I go. You are in all the things I look upon, the sounds I  hear, and every hand that reaches for my own. In You time disappears
W2:271.1  I am choosing what I want to look upon, the sounds I want to  hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the truth for me. Today I
W2:272.2 Today we pass illusions by. And if we  hear temptation call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn
W2:275.1  day. Yet has this day been chosen as the time when we will seek and  hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of
W2:290.2  me up today while I but seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to  hear me, Father. What I ask have You already given me, and I am sure
W2:296.1  my voice today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and  hear Your Word through me. I am resolved to let You speak through me,
W2:296.1  For having damned it, I would set it free that I may find escape and  hear the Word Your holy Voice will speak to me today.

W2:WILJ.1 Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of God the gift to  hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false and what
W2:311.2 Father, we wait with open mind today to  hear Your Judgment of the Son You love. We do not know him, and we
W2:WICR.5 Our Father calls to us. We  hear His Voice, and we forgive creation in the name of its Creator,
W2:327.1  on the basis of an unsupported faith. For God has promised He will  hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my
W2:334.1  again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all who  hear and choose to follow Him. This is my choice today. And so I go
W2:339.2  is Your day. It is a day in which I would do nothing by myself but  hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting only what You offer
W2:340.1  today Your Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he will  hear Your Voice directing him to find Christ's vision through
W2:347.2 Listen today. Be very still and  hear the gentle Voice for God assuring you that He has judged you as
W2:WAI.4  a world redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that  hear the Voice of God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds
W2:352.1  both the memory of You and One Who leads me to it. Father, I would  hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I would love my own
W2:357.1  in my brother, then in me. Your Voice instructs me patiently to  hear Your Word and give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son
W2:357.1  Word and give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I  hear Your Voice instructing me to find the way to You as You
W2:361.1  I will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He will  hear and answer me because He speaks for God, my Father, and His holy

M:15.3  the world, teacher of God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and  hear the Voice of Judgment in yourself? Or do you still attempt to

Tx:10.82 You have  heard the answer, but you have misunderstood the question. You have

Tx:17.52 Throughout the Sonship is the song of freedom  heard in joyous echo of your choice. You have joined with many in the
Tx:18.12  error which shattered Heaven. And what became of peace in those who  heard? Return with me to Heaven, walking together out of this world
Tx:19.55  where no sound but singing and a softly joyous whispering is ever  heard. This is a feast which honors your holy relationship and at

Tx:21.8  whose name is long forgotten, and the circumstances in which you  heard completely unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with

Tx:26.4  invisible in such a world. Nor can his song of union and of love be  heard at all. Yet is it given him to make the world recede before his
Tx:26.40  past seems real, as if it were the present. Voices from the past are  heard and then are doubted. You are like to one who still
Tx:27.34  symbols fade, and nothing which the eyes have ever seen or ears have  heard remains to be perceived.

Tx:28.51  Yet are there other sounds and other sights which can be seen and  heard and understood. For eyes and ears are senses without sense, and
Tx:29.31  is a place in you which time has left, and echoes of eternity are  heard. There is a resting place so still no sound except a hymn to

Tx:29.68  dreams a melody is heard which everyone remembers, though he has not  heard it since before all time began. Forgiveness, once complete,
Tx:29.68  complete, brings timelessness so close the song of Heaven can be  heard, not with the ears, but with the holiness which never left the
Tx:29.68  the Son of God. And when he hears this song again, he knows he never  heard it not. And where is time, when dreams of judgment have been

W1:125.1  He abides. Hear Him today. No peace is possible until His Word is  heard around the world; until your mind, in quiet listening, accepts
W1:125.6  speaks to you. His Voice awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be  heard until your mind is quiet for a while and meaningless desires
W1:152.3  that the truth is true and nothing else is true. This you have  heard before, but may not yet accept both parts of it. Without the

Tx:13.40 You will not remember change and shift in  Heaven. You have need of contrast only here. Contrast and differences
Tx:13.41  only this one thing, and it will be sufficient: God wills you be in  Heaven, and nothing can keep you from it or it from you. Your wildest
Tx:13.43 God willed you  Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The Holy Spirit knows
Tx:13.43  The Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that  Heaven will not be yours, for God is sure, and what He wills is as
Tx:13.44  remain unchanged throughout eternity. You do not have to know that  Heaven is yours to make it so. It is so. Yet the Will of God must be

Tx:13.66  allays. Learning is living here, as creating is being in  Heaven. Whenever the pain of guilt seems to attract you, remember

Tx:14.10  creation. And every teaching that points to this points straight to  Heaven and to the peace of God. There is no pain, no trial, no fear
Tx:14.37  those He gives the power to create like Him can never be dissolved.  Heaven itself is union with all of creation and with its One Creator.
Tx:14.37  itself is union with all of creation and with its One Creator. And  Heaven remains the Will of God for you. Lay no gifts other than this
Tx:14.42  Creator shines forth from you to all around you. You can reflect  Heaven here. Yet no reflections of the images of other gods must dim

Tx:15.3  assures you that Heaven is not for you. How can the guilty hope for  Heaven? The belief in hell is inescapable to those who identify with
Tx:15.5  reconciled. The ego teaches thus: Death is the end as far as hope of  Heaven goes. Yet because you and itself cannot be separated, and
Tx:15.6 The ego teaches that  Heaven is here and now because the future is hell. Even when it
Tx:15.8  because you are afraid of it. The Holy Spirit leads as steadily to  Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the Holy Spirit, Who knows only

Tx:15.14  who share it with you. As long as it takes to exchange hell for  Heaven. Long enough to transcend all of the ego's making and ascend

Tx:15.34  Hear not his call for hell and littleness, but only his call for  Heaven and greatness. Forget not that his call is yours, and answer
Tx:15.34  His holy altar, which rises above the stars and reaches even to  Heaven because of what is given it.
Tx:15.51  a picture whose likeness does not exist. For there is nothing in  Heaven or earth that it resembles, and so however much you seek for

Tx:15.89  and long remain willing to linger here. For it is your will to be in  Heaven, where you are complete and quiet in such sure and loving

Tx:16.44  love relationship is the ego's chief weapon for keeping you from  Heaven. It does not appear to be a weapon, but if you consider how
Tx:16.45  all seem to be the unnatural ones. For this world is the opposite of  Heaven, being made to be its opposite, and everything here takes a
Tx:16.45  here takes a direction exactly opposite of what is true. In  Heaven, where the meaning of love is known, love is the same as
Tx:16.46  of the ego that you believe this specialness is not hell, but  Heaven. For the ego would never have you see that separation can only
Tx:16.46  that separation can only be loss, being the one condition in which  Heaven cannot be.
Tx:16.47 To everyone  Heaven is completion. There can be no disagreement on this, because
Tx:16.47  for nothing would remain to interfere with it. This is its idea of  Heaven. From this it follows that union, which is a condition in
Tx:16.48  is a strange and unnatural ego device for joining hell and  Heaven and making them indistinguishable. And the attempt to find the
Tx:16.50  see this special self in each other, the ego sees “a union made in  Heaven.” For neither one will recognize that he has asked for hell,
Tx:16.50  for hell, and so he will not interfere with the ego's illusion of  Heaven, which it offered him to interfere with Heaven. Yet if all

Tx:17.37 The holy instant is a miniature of Heaven, sent you from  Heaven. It is a picture, too, set in a frame. Yet if you accept this

Tx:18.11  Heaven is restored to all the Sonship through your relationship, for
Tx:18.11  for in it lies the Sonship, whole and beautiful, safe in your love.  Heaven has entered quietly, for all illusions have been gently
Tx:18.11  and how holy is your relationship, with the truth shining upon it!  Heaven beholds it and rejoices that you have let it come to you. [And
Tx:18.11  was created.] The universe within you stands with you, together. And  Heaven looks with love on what is joined in it, along with its
Tx:18.12  Their call is but an echo of the original error which shattered  Heaven. And what became of peace in those who heard? Return with me
Tx:18.12  And what became of peace in those who heard? Return with me to  Heaven, walking together out of this world and through another to the
Tx:18.23 Yet  Heaven is sure. This is no dream. Its coming means that you have
Tx:18.23  the same wishes in your mind, so do the real world and the truth of  Heaven join in the Will of God. The dream of waking is easily
Tx:18.27  accepted God. The holiness of your relationship is established in  Heaven. You do not understand what you accepted, but remember that
Tx:18.29 In your relationship, you have joined with me in bringing  Heaven to the Son of God, who hid in darkness. You have been willing
Tx:18.31 Not one light in  Heaven but goes with you. Not one ray that shines forever in the Mind
Tx:18.31  one ray that shines forever in the Mind of God but shines on you.  Heaven is joined with you in your advance to Heaven. When such great

Tx:18.42  build a ladder planted in the solid rock of faith and rising even to  Heaven. Nor will you use it to ascend to Heaven alone.
Tx:18.42  of faith and rising even to Heaven. Nor will you use it to ascend to  Heaven alone.
Tx:18.43  every holy instant which you do not arrange, thousands will rise to  Heaven with you. Can you plan for this? Or could you prepare
Tx:18.49  learn, for it is [in that] realization that the Kingdom of  Heaven is restored to you. For God created only this, and He did not
Tx:18.49  depart from it nor leave it separate from Himself. The Kingdom of  Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of God, who left not his
Tx:18.49  Son of God, who left not his Father and dwells not apart from Him.  Heaven is not a place nor a condition. It is merely an awareness of
Tx:18.50  else, something outside yourself, has cost you the awareness of  Heaven and the loss of your Identity. And you have done a stranger
Tx:18.58 You can stretch out your hand and reach to  Heaven. You whose hands are joined have begun to reach beyond the
Tx:18.72  It draws a circle, infinitely small, around a very little segment of  Heaven splintered from the whole, proclaiming that within it is your
Tx:18.79  a desert was. And everyone you welcome will bring love with him from  Heaven for you. They enter one by one into this holy place, but they
Tx:18.80  and see your little garden gently transformed into the Kingdom of  Heaven with all the love of its Creator shining upon it. The holy
Tx:18.81  shining Self will lift the tiny aspect which you tried to hide from  Heaven straight into Heaven. No part of love calls on the whole in
Tx:18.81  the tiny aspect which you tried to hide from Heaven straight into  Heaven. No part of love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God
Tx:18.85 This is the little part of you, you think you stole from  Heaven. Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have
Tx:18.85  little part of you, you think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to  Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven.
Tx:18.85  of you, you think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to Heaven.  Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the
Tx:18.85  back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of  Heaven. Let the Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in
Tx:18.97  lifted high above the darkness and gently placed before the gates of  Heaven. The holy instant in which you were united is but the
Tx:19.24  choice. Approach it not lightly, for it is the choice of hell or  Heaven.
Tx:19.33  has as its purpose now the goal of proving this is impossible.  Heaven has smiled upon it, and the belief in sin has been uprooted in
Tx:19.35 In the holy instant, you will see the smile of  heaven shining on both of you. And you will shine upon each other in
Tx:19.35  that has been given you. For sin will not prevail against a union  Heaven has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy
Tx:19.35  has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy instant  Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise your eyes in
Tx:19.35  raise your eyes in faith to what you now can see. The barriers to  heaven will disappear before your holy sight, for you who were
Tx:19.42  universe and its Creator. This little wall would hide the purpose of  Heaven and keep it from Heaven.
Tx:19.42  This little wall would hide the purpose of Heaven and keep it from  Heaven.
Tx:19.45 There is a hush in  Heaven, a happy expectancy, a little pause of gladness in
Tx:19.45  little pause of gladness in acknowledgment of the journey's end. For  Heaven knows you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions stand between
Tx:19.45  of the journey's end. For Heaven knows you well, as you know  Heaven. No illusions stand between you now. Look not upon the little
Tx:19.64  nothing you have paid for brought you peace. Are you not glad that  Heaven cannot be sacrificed, and sacrifice cannot be asked of you?
Tx:19.66  from what is offered you in gratitude for giving peace its home in  Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous message of the end of
Tx:19.80  of the insane, dedicated to madness and set against the peace of  Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who created neither sin nor death,
Tx:19.101  need forgiveness of each other, for you will share in madness or in  Heaven together. And you will raise your eyes in faith together or
Tx:19.104 There is no grace of  Heaven that you cannot offer to each other and receive from your most
Tx:19.108  quiet that you seek, the reason for the journey from its beginning.  Heaven is the gift you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you
Tx:19.109  he gives and what is given him. Nor is it given anything in hell or  Heaven to interfere with his decision.
Tx:20.12  our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway to the open door of  Heaven, the home we share in quietness, and where we live in
Tx:20.14 This is the way to  Heaven and to the peace of Easter, in which we join in glad awareness
Tx:20.15  way of innocence together, singing as you behold the open door of  Heaven, and recognize the home that called to you. Give joyously to
Tx:20.26  Here there is only holiness and joining without limit. For what is  Heaven but union, direct and perfect, and without the veil of fear
Tx:20.29 Sin has no place in  Heaven, where its results are alien and can no more enter than can
Tx:20.29  And therein lies your need to see your brother sinless. In him is  Heaven. See sin in him instead, and Heaven is lost to you. But see
Tx:20.29  your brother sinless. In him is Heaven. See sin in him instead, and  Heaven is lost to you. But see him as he is, and what is yours shines
Tx:20.70  look upon each other, you will see an altar to your Father, holy as  Heaven, glowing with radiant purity and sparkling with the shining

Tx:21.32  the state of certainty is reached. In Heaven they are unknown. Yet  Heaven is reached through them.
Tx:21.37  that He has given you is more than anything that stands this side of  Heaven. The instant for its recognition is at hand. Join your
Tx:21.37  it and in the innocence which makes the sight of it as beautiful as  Heaven.

Tx:21.47  of another world, brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers  Heaven, and now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at last, from
Tx:21.47  to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and now it sees that  Heaven has come to earth at last, from which the ego's rule has kept
Tx:21.47  to earth at last, from which the ego's rule has kept it out so long.  Heaven has come because it found a home in your relationship on
Tx:21.47  on earth. And earth can hold no longer what has been given  Heaven as its own.
Tx:21.66 That you are joined is your salvation—the gift of  Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you?
Tx:21.66  is your salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does  Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness, yes. And yet what
Tx:21.66  what madness sees must be dispelled by reason. Reason assures you  Heaven is what you want, and all you want. Listen to Him Who speaks
Tx:22.3  He denies not his own reality, because it is the truth. Just under  Heaven does he stand, but close enough not to return to earth. For
Tx:22.3  Heaven's holiness. How far from home can a relationship so like to  Heaven be?
Tx:22.15  holy relationship, the home prepared for them as earth is turned to  Heaven.
Tx:22.22  you can pause uncertainly, waiting to choose between the joy of  Heaven and the misery of hell. Until you choose Heaven, you are in
Tx:22.22  between the joy of Heaven and the misery of hell. Until you choose  Heaven, you are in hell and misery.
Tx:22.23 There is no part of  Heaven you can take and weave into illusions. Nor is there one
Tx:22.23  and weave into illusions. Nor is there one illusion you can enter  Heaven with. A savior cannot be a judge, nor mercy condemnation. And
Tx:22.28  sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for yourself? Can you reach  Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to remain in misery?
Tx:22.28  Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to remain in misery?  Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and God created it for you.
Tx:22.39  the other choice. This is not so. A choice made with the power of  Heaven to uphold it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. There will
Tx:22.41  such a long and lonely journey where you walked alone. The gates of  Heaven, open now for you, will you now open to the sorrowful. And
Tx:22.55  accepted in your relationship corrects the error and lays a part of  Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who let this gift be given!
Tx:22.55  place. How blessed are you who let this gift be given! Each part of  Heaven that you bring is given you. And every empty place in Heaven
Tx:22.55  part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And every empty place in  Heaven that you fill again with the Eternal Light you bring shines
Tx:22.56  to others? And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in  Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the Holy
Tx:23.4  attraction. Would you, for all these meaningless distractions, lay  Heaven aside? Your destiny and purpose are far beyond them in the
Tx:23.6  you but is part of you. Look on it lovingly, and see the light of  Heaven in it. So will you come to understand all that is given you.
Tx:23.6  you once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of  Heaven. How beautiful it is to walk clean and redeemed and happy
Tx:23.31  you made for your salvation. They hold in place the substitute for  Heaven which you prefer. This is their purpose; they were made for
Tx:23.37 There is no life outside of  Heaven. Where God created life, there life must be. In any state
Tx:23.37  Where God created life, there life must be. In any state apart from  Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it seems like life; at worst, like
Tx:23.37  not life, equal in their inaccuracy and lack of meaning. Life not in  Heaven is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere.
Tx:23.37  of meaning. Life not in Heaven is impossible, and what is not in  Heaven is not anywhere. Outside of Heaven, only the conflict of
Tx:23.37  is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere. Outside of  Heaven, only the conflict of illusions stands; senseless, impossible,
Tx:23.37  and beyond all reason, and yet perceived as an eternal barrier to  Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their content is never true.
Tx:23.39  another nor that return from one is easier. The whole descent from  Heaven lies in each one. And where your thinking starts, there must
Tx:23.40  form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from  Heaven. Yet any instant it is possible to have all this undone. How
Tx:23.40  all this undone. How can you know whether you chose the stairs to  Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you feel? Is peace in
Tx:23.40  Are you certain which way you go? And are you sure the goal of  Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, your Friend
Tx:23.47  of safety. In Him is no attack, and no illusion in any form stalks  Heaven. Heaven is wholly true. No difference enters, and what is all
Tx:23.47  In Him is no attack, and no illusion in any form stalks Heaven.  Heaven is wholly true. No difference enters, and what is all the same
Tx:23.52  a miracle instead of murder. And God Himself and all the lights of  Heaven will gently lean to you and hold you up. For you have chosen
Tx:23.53  gone and not perceived. The body stands between the Father and the  Heaven He created for His Son because it has no purpose.
Tx:24.10  of special goals. And would you now defeat the goal of holiness that  Heaven gave it? What perspective can the special have that does not
Tx:24.14  them as one with Him. They chose their specialness instead of  Heaven and instead of peace and wrapped it carefully in sin to keep
Tx:24.18  release to both of you. Here stands your brother with the key to  Heaven in his hand held out to you. Let not the dream of specialness
Tx:24.20  have reached this final obstacle that seems to make God and His  Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in this holy place
Tx:24.22  could make the truth of God and you as one seem anything but  Heaven and the hope of peace at last in sight.
Tx:24.46  He gives them vision for their sightless eyes and sings to them of  Heaven that their ears may hear no more the sound of battle and of
Tx:24.47  seek salvation in a war with love, consider this: the holy Lord of  Heaven has Himself come down to you to offer you your own completion.
Tx:24.50 Without you there would be a lack in God, a  Heaven incomplete, a Son without a Father. There could be no universe
Tx:24.60  no sacrifice is asked, no strain called forth, and all the power of  Heaven and the might of truth itself is given to provide the means
Tx:24.66  gone. Its holy purpose gave it immortality, setting another light in  Heaven, where your creations recognize a gift from you, a sign that
Tx:24.67  you are but means, along with it. God is a Means as well as End. In  Heaven, means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the state of
Tx:25.8 Since you believe that you are separate,  Heaven presents itself to you as separate too. Not that it is in
Tx:25.20 How could the Lord of  Heaven not be glad if you appreciate His masterpiece? What could He
Tx:25.27  where it must be and light the body up instead of it. The lamps of  Heaven are not for it to choose to see them where it will. If it

Tx:25.35  you homeless. Those who offer peace to everyone have found a home in  Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it is large enough to hold the
Tx:25.36 In you is all of  Heaven. Every leaf that falls is given life in you. Each bird that
Tx:25.36  for you. What aim can supersede the Will of God and of His Son that  Heaven be restored to him for whom it was created as his only home?

Tx:25.41  fulfilled is but the means to let yours be. And so you walk toward  Heaven or toward hell, but not alone. How beautiful his sinlessness
Tx:25.42  His love for you; through your attack believe He hates you, thinking  Heaven must be hell. Look once again upon your brother, not without
Tx:25.42  your brother, not without the understanding that he is the way to  Heaven or to hell as you perceive him. But forget not this—the role
Tx:25.50  a wish to make this world's foundation sure as love, dependable as  Heaven, and as strong as God Himself. The world is safe from love to
Tx:25.51  Nor can the basis of a world He did not make be firm and sure as  Heaven. How could it be that hell and Heaven are the same? And is it
Tx:25.51  not make be firm and sure as Heaven. How could it be that hell and  Heaven are the same? And is it possible that what He did not will
Tx:25.59  assigned to you in God's Own plan to show His Sons that hell and  Heaven are different, not the same. And that in Heaven they are all
Tx:25.59  Sons that hell and Heaven are different, not the same. And that in  Heaven they are all the same, without the differences which would

Tx:25.68  the “fires” of Heaven by God's own angry hand. They do believe that  Heaven is hell and are afraid of love. And deep suspicion and the
Tx:25.72  one that you accept brings joy to Him as well as you. He knows that  Heaven is richer made by each one you accept. And God rejoices as His
Tx:25.77  way, as God appointed for His holy Son. This is the only justice  Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special
Tx:25.78  you will forgo all values of this world in favor of the peace of  Heaven. Not one sin would you retain. And not one doubt that this is
Tx:25.79  is lost to you or anyone, but cherished and preserved [for you] in  Heaven, where all of the treasures given to God's Son are kept for
Tx:26.5  for you. Yet it can become a treasure house as rich and limitless as  Heaven itself. No instant passes here in which your brother's

Tx:26.8 And as he is in  Heaven, so must he be eternally and everywhere. He is the same
Tx:26.17  intact and undefiled. And all you need to do is but to wish that  Heaven be given you instead of hell, and every bolt and barrier that
Tx:26.19  There is a borderland of thought which stands between this world and  Heaven. It is not a place, and when you reach it is apart from time.
Tx:26.19  are judged to be untrue. This borderland is just beyond the gate of  Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is
Tx:26.22 Salvation stops just short of  Heaven, for only perception needs salvation. Heaven was never lost
Tx:26.22  stops just short of Heaven, for only perception needs salvation.  Heaven was never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a
Tx:26.22  so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a choice between the wish for  Heaven and the wish for hell unless he recognizes they are not the
Tx:26.25  the world gives way to simple justice past the gate that opens into  Heaven. No one forgives unless he has believed in sin and still
Tx:26.26  see. Each flower shines in light, and every bird sings of the joy of  Heaven. There is no sadness, and there is no parting here, for
Tx:26.27  beyond the universe to touch the heart of all creation? What is  Heaven but a song of gratitude and love and praise by everything
Tx:26.27  set where once sin was believed to be. And here does every light of  heaven come to be rekindled and increased in joy. For here is what
Tx:26.28 Forgiveness brings no little miracles to lay before the gate of  Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to receive each gift that
Tx:26.29  will become an altar to the truth, and you will join the lights of  Heaven there and sing their song of gratitude and praise. And as they

Tx:26.30  made except the way to Heaven. You but choose whether to go toward  Heaven or away to nowhere. There is nothing else to choose.

Tx:26.45  Yet God has given him a better Friend in Whom all power in earth and  Heaven rests. The one illusion that you think is friend obscures His
Tx:26.52  of healing and the lasting grounds for hell. If this were so, would  Heaven be opposed by its own opposite, as real as it. Then would

Tx:27.11  this empty space, from which the goal of sin has been removed, is  Heaven free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect
Tx:27.75  unites with you in holy innocence. And from this dream, the Lord of  Heaven will Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream of your brother's
Tx:29.10  a simple way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to find yourself in  Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up nothing, until you
Tx:29.16  you found yourself before. There is no change in immortality, and  Heaven knows it not. Yet here on earth it has a double purpose, for
Tx:29.31  heard. There is a resting place so still no sound except a hymn to  Heaven rises up to gladden God the Father and the Son. Where both
Tx:29.31  Where both abide are They remembered both. And where They are is  Heaven and is peace. Think not that you can change Their dwelling
Tx:29.32 The changelessness of  Heaven is in you, so deep within that nothing in this world but
Tx:29.35  you attack him with the hands of hate? Who would lay bloody hands on  Heaven itself and hope to find its peace? Your brother thinks he
Tx:29.40  God gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only  Heaven would not pass away.
Tx:29.43  For it will fail, and you will weep each time an idol falls.  Heaven cannot be found where it is not, and there can be no peace
Tx:29.56  miracle restores to what has life and power worthy of the gift of  Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the truth, the
Tx:29.60  sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be given less? In  Heaven would the Son of God but laugh if idols could intrude upon his
Tx:29.60  speaks and tells you idols have no purpose here. For more than  Heaven can you never have. If Heaven is within, why would you seek
Tx:29.60  have no purpose here. For more than Heaven can you never have. If  Heaven is within, why would you seek for idols which would make of
Tx:29.60  Heaven is within, why would you seek for idols which would make of  Heaven less, to give you more than God bestowed upon your brother and
Tx:29.61  the mind that God created perfect as Himself. And in that dream was  Heaven changed to hell, and God made enemy unto His Son.
Tx:29.68  Forgiveness, once complete, brings timelessness so close the song of  Heaven can be heard, not with the ears, but with the holiness which
Tx:29.69  do not feel a deep content, a certainty of help, a calm assurance  Heaven goes with you—be sure you made an idol and believe it will
Tx:30.33  will. He joins with you. He did not set His Kingdom up alone. And  Heaven itself but represents your will, where everything created is
Tx:30.35  you thanks, for it is by your will that it was born. No light of  Heaven shines except for you, for it was set in Heaven by your will.

Tx:30.45  in an eternal sky. So high in Heaven is it set that those outside of  Heaven know not it is there. Yet still and white and lovely will it
Tx:30.46  it in its perfect place, which is as far from earth as earth from  Heaven. It is not the distance nor the time which keeps this star
Tx:30.48  sky, no changeless star, and no reality. The mind of Heaven's Son in  Heaven is, for there the mind of Father and Son joined in creation
Tx:30.59 Not yet is  Heaven quite remembered, for the purpose of forgiveness still
Tx:30.60  a perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one outside of  Heaven knows how this can be, for understanding this is Heaven
Tx:30.60  outside of Heaven knows how this can be, for understanding this is  Heaven itself. Even the real world has a purpose still beneath
Tx:30.64  fear forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the gate of  Heaven itself. For He Whose hand you hold was waiting but for you to
Tx:30.90  reality. For that is changeless and has no effects which anything in  Heaven or on earth could ever alter. But appearances are shown to be
Tx:30.91  keep their unreality obscure and give to them reality instead. And  Heaven gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be given you
Tx:31.62  you have chosen that you want it so. But choose the Spirit, and all  Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless your holy sight, that you
Tx:31.65 Only in arrogance could you conceive that you must make the way to  Heaven plain. The means are given you by which to see the world that
Tx:31.65  the world that will replace the one you made. Your will be done! In  Heaven as on earth, this is forever true. It matters not where you
Tx:31.67  Child of God. It does not matter if you think you are in earth or  Heaven. What your Father wills for you can never change. The truth in
Tx:31.81  Be not deceived by what appears as many choices. There is hell or  Heaven, and of these you choose but one.
Tx:31.93  yet be so intense and so inclusive it is but a step from there to  Heaven. To your tired eyes I bring a vision of a different world, so
Tx:31.94  And all the loveliness which they concealed appear like lawns of  Heaven to our sight to lift us high above the thorny roads we

W1:45.11  thing is necessary—approach it as you would an altar dedicated in  Heaven itself to God the Father and God the Son. For such is the
W1:45.11  but an exercise in holiness and an attempt to reach the Kingdom of  Heaven.
W1:47.8  of your mind, and reach down and below them to the Kingdom of  Heaven. There is a place in you where there is perfect peace. There
W1:50.4  to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of  Heaven. Such is the resting place where your Father has placed you
W1:60.2  reflection of God's Love on earth. It will bring me near enough to  Heaven that the Love of God can reach down to me and raise me to my
W1:73.4  light is in it because it does not oppose the Will of God. It is not  Heaven, but the light of Heaven shines on it. Darkness has vanished;
W1:73.4  does not oppose the Will of God. It is not Heaven, but the light of  Heaven shines on it. Darkness has vanished; the ego's idle wishes
W1:73.6  Forget the ego's arguments which seek to prove all this is really  Heaven. You know it is not so. You cannot want this for yourself.
W1:73.9  done. And end forever the insane belief that it is hell in place of  Heaven that you choose.
W1:76.12  His Voice will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of  Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. We will repeat today's
W1:78.11  of love the Holy Spirit showed you in their place. The world and  Heaven join in thanking you, for not one thought of God but must
W1:89.5  I would make no exceptions and no substitutes. I want all of  Heaven and only Heaven, as God wills me to have.
W1:89.5  make no exceptions and no substitutes. I want all of Heaven and only  Heaven, as God wills me to have.
W1:95.19  help, your little part in bringing happiness to all the world. And  Heaven looks to you in confidence that you will try today. Share,
W1:98.11  then of Him Who knows the function that you have on earth as well as  Heaven. He will be with you each practice period you share with Him,
W1:99.3 How could there be a meeting place at all where earth and  Heaven can be reconciled within a mind where both of them exist? The
W1:100.4  God's plan. Just as your light increases every light that shines in  Heaven, so your joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows
W1:110.13  of God that sets you free. This is the key that opens up the gate of  Heaven, and which lets you enter in the peace of God and His eternity.
W1:121.7  release from hell through you and turns to you imploringly for  Heaven here and now. It has no hope, but you become its hope. And as
W1:122.6 Here is the answer! Would you stand outside while all of  Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you give,
W1:126.5  escape the justified repayment for his sin. Think you the Lord of  Heaven would allow the world's salvation to depend on this? Would not
W1:129.10 Today the lights of  Heaven bend to you, to shine upon your eyelids as you rest beyond the
W1:130.11  what you see. Perception is consistent with your choice, and hell or  Heaven comes to you as one.
W1:130.12  sight, and what you will behold is hell indeed. Yet the release of  Heaven still remains within your range of choice to take the place of
W1:131.5 Be glad that search you must. Be glad as well to learn you search for  Heaven and must find the goal you really want. No one can fail to
W1:131.6  nor affect His perfect, timeless, and unchanging Love. You will find  Heaven. Everything you seek but this will fall away, yet not because
W1:131.7 Why wait for  Heaven? It is here today. Time is the great illusion; it is past or
W1:131.8  Heaven remains your one alternative to this strange world you made
W1:131.8  and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not make two minds, with  Heaven as the glad effect of one and earth the other's sorry outcome
W1:131.9  it be His Son could be in hell when God Himself established him in  Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal Will has given him to be his
W1:131.10  contradicts what has no opposite. He thinks he made a hell opposing  Heaven and believes that he abides in what does not exist, while
W1:131.10  Heaven and believes that he abides in what does not exist, while  Heaven is the place he cannot find. Leave foolish thoughts like these
W1:131.17 You cannot fail today. There walks with you the Spirit  Heaven sent you that you might approach this door some day and
W1:131.18  and meaningless laments. Salvation's time has come. Today is set by  Heaven Itself to be a time of grace for you and for the world. If you
W1:133.14  more than merely letting you make choices easily and without pain.  Heaven Itself is reached by empty hands and open minds, which come
W1:133.17  what waits for everyone who reaches unencumbered to the gate of  Heaven, which swings open as he comes. Should you begin to let
W1:134.22 No one is crucified alone, and yet no one can enter  Heaven by himself.
W1:135.21 Without defenses, you become a light which  Heaven gratefully acknowledges to be its own. And it will lead you on
W1:135.26  wonder why you ever thought that you must be defended from release.  Heaven asks nothing. It is hell that makes extravagant demands for
W1:136.10  to die. And so the body is more powerful than everlasting life,  Heaven more frail than hell, and God's design for the salvation of
W1:136.11 Such is your planning for your own defense. And you believe that  Heaven quails before such mad attacks as these, with God made blind
W1:136.12  remains unheeding of the laws by which you thought to govern it. And  Heaven has not bowed to hell, nor life to death. You can but choose
W1:138.1 In this world,  Heaven is a choice because here we believe there are alternatives to
W1:138.1  that all things have an opposite, and what we want we choose. If  Heaven exists, there must be hell as well, for contradiction is the
W1:138.2 It is this strange perception of the truth that makes the choice of  Heaven seem to be the same as the relinquishment of hell. It is not
W1:138.6 In this insanely complicated world,  Heaven appears to take the form of choice rather than merely being
W1:138.9  Heaven is chosen consciously. The choice cannot be made until
W1:138.10 The conscious choice of  Heaven is as sure as is the ending of the fear of hell when it is
W1:138.11 We make the choice for  Heaven as we wake and spend five minutes making sure that we have
W1:138.13  Heaven is the decision I must make. I make it now and will not change
W1:149.2 [138]  Heaven is the decision I must make.
W1:151.17  the world unites with us and happily accepts our holy thoughts which  Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has our ministry begun at
W1:152.11  gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's Love, his right to  Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as our own. Now do
W1:153.18  where you will walk in true defenselessness, for you will know that  Heaven goes with you. Nor would you keep your mind away from Him a
W1:154.1  a larger plan we cannot see in its entirety. Our part is cast in  Heaven, not in hell. And what we think is weakness can be strength;
W1:157.1  is a special time of promise in your calendar of days. It is a time  Heaven has set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless light upon
W1:157.3 Today it will be given you to feel a touch of  Heaven, though you will return to paths of learning. Yet you have
W1:157.6  to the same experience in which the world is quietly forgot and  Heaven is remembered for a while.
W1:157.7  becomes a little closer to the end of time, a little more like  Heaven in its ways, a little nearer its deliverance. And you who
W1:157.8  of life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide to  Heaven given you has dreamed for you this journey which you make and
W1:159.1  requires first you have it in your own possession. Here the laws of  Heaven and the world agree. But here they also separate. The world
W1:159.3  which never died but has been kept obscure. Christ's vision pictures  Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that what God created
W1:159.3  Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to  Heaven that what God created perfect can be mirrored there. The
W1:159.4  receiver are united in extension here on earth as they are one in  Heaven. Christ beholds no sin in anyone, and in His sight the sinless
W1:161.1  Here is Atonement made complete, the world passed safely by, and  Heaven now restored. Here is the answer of the Voice of God.
W1:161.9 This do the body's eyes behold in one whom  Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and God created perfect. This is
W1:161.11  to you of ancient melodies you will remember. You are not forgot in  Heaven. Would you not remember it?
W1:164.1  yet He hears them faintly, for beyond them all He hears the song of  Heaven and the Voice of God more clear, more meaningful, more near.
W1:165.4 Deny not  Heaven. It is yours today but for the asking. Nor need you perceive
W1:168.4  hearts rise up and claim the light as theirs. What now remains that  Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What remains undone when your
W1:169.11  that grace provides will end in time, for grace foreshadows  Heaven yet does not replace the thought of time but for a little
W1:R5.10  And together we will teach them to our brothers. God would not have  Heaven incomplete. It waits for you, as I do. I am incomplete without
W1:182.3  The home he seeks cannot be made by him. There is no substitute for  Heaven. All he ever made was hell.
W1:182.4  Child shall go is holy ground. It is His holiness that lights up  Heaven and that brings to earth the pure reflection of the light
W1:182.4  earth the pure reflection of the light above, wherein are earth and  Heaven joined as one.
W1:182.9  messages to those who think he is their enemy. He holds the might of  Heaven in His hand and calls them friend, and gives His strength to
W1:184.8  you made the world. Illusions, yes! But what is true in earth and  Heaven is beyond your naming. When you call upon a brother, it is to
W1:184.12  to those who chose the teaching of the world to take the place of  Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds accept
W1:185.1  further sorrow possible for you in any form, in any place or time.  Heaven would be completely given back to full awareness, memory of
W1:185.9  be asked of all of them: “Is this what I would have, in place of  Heaven and the peace of God?” This is the choice you make. Be not
W1:186.1  It but acknowledges the Will of God is done on earth as well as  Heaven. It unites all wills on earth in Heaven's plan to save the
W1:186.14  Itself. Forgiveness is an earthly form of love which as it is in  Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed here is given here as it is
W1:187.10  of God is on our lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of  Heaven shine in our reflection of our Father's Love.
W1:188.1 Why wait for  Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The
W1:189.10  as well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a part of  Heaven now. Amen.
W1:190.8  does fear appear to triumph over love and time replace eternity and  Heaven. And the world becomes a cruel and a bitter place, where
W1:190.11  choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and  Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are
W1:190.11  place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, and the light of  Heaven for the darkness of the world.
W1:191.11  and suffer pain, hear this: all power is given you in earth and  Heaven. There is nothing that you cannot do. You play the game of
W1:191.13  Remember this and all the world is free. Remember this and earth and  Heaven are one.
W1:192.2  it is the means by which untruth can be undone. And who would pardon  Heaven? Yet on earth you need the means to let illusion go. Creation
W1:192.4 Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in  Heaven, sees them disappear, and leaves the world a clean and
W1:193.2  perception is made true and beautiful enough to let the light of  Heaven shine upon it. It is He Who answers what His Son would
W1:193.3  to be received by every mind which had forgotten it as it exists in  Heaven and in God. Thus He encompassed what He could not see nor
W1:193.20  the Love of God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to  Heaven. God will take this final step Himself. Do not deny the little
W1:194.1  the distance is that it encompasses, it sets you down just short of  Heaven, with the goal in sight and obstacles behind. Your foot has
W1:198.6  love upon them. Those who hear His words have heard the song of  Heaven, for these are the words in which all will merge as one at
W1:198.12  illusion which proclaims there is no condemnation in God's Son, and  Heaven is remembered instantly; the world forgotten, all its weird
W1:199.8  world is blessed along with you; God's Son will weep no more, and  Heaven offers thanks for the increase of joy your practice brings
W1:200.2  by what can only hurt, of making peace of chaos, joy of pain, and  Heaven out of hell. Attempt no more to win through losing, nor to die
W1:200.3  for hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to find that  Heaven lies before you, through a door that opens easily to welcome
W1:200.6  In truth it has no function and does nothing, for it is unknown in  Heaven. It is only hell where it is needed and where it must serve a
W1:200.8  as different and leading from this fresh perception to the gate of  Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting goals,
W1:200.9 Let us not lose our way again today. We go to  Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we attempt to wander can
W1:200.10  sought before. Now are they underfoot. And you look up and on toward  Heaven, with the body's eyes but serving for an instant longer now.
W2:223.2  And we would not forget You longer. We are lonely here and long for  Heaven where we are at home. Today we would return. Our Name is
W2:224.1  glorious and great, wholly beneficent and free from guilt that  Heaven looks to it to give it light. It lights the world as well. It
W2:226.2  I to linger in a place of vain desires and of broken dreams when  Heaven can so easily be mine?
W2:227.2 And so today we find our glad return to  Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God this day lays down
W2:WS.5  dreams are done, eternity has shined away the world, and only  Heaven now exists at all.
W2:231.2  me, and with the One as well Who is our Father. To remember Him is  Heaven. This we seek. And only this is what it will be given us to
W2:WIW.4  let Him give you peace and certainty, which you have thrown away but  Heaven has preserved for you in Him.
W2:241.2  at last to You again. Father, Your Son, who never left, returns to  Heaven and his home. How glad are we to have our sanity restored to
W2:249.1  of joy, abundance, charity, and endless giving. It is now so like to  Heaven that it quickly is transformed into the Light that it
W2:WIS.5  is no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold return to  Heaven back? How long, oh holy Son of God, how long?
W2:252.2  who am Your Son, that I may waken to the truth in You and know that  Heaven is restored to me.
W2:253.1  am I led past this world to my creations, children of my Will, in  Heaven where my holy Self abides with them and Him Who has created me.
W2:255.1  God's Son can have no cares and must remain forever in the peace of  Heaven. In his name I give today to finding what my Father wills for
W2:WIB.4  was made to fence him into hell without escape, yet has the goal of  Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. The Son of God extends
W2:263.2 And while we still remain outside the gate of  Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy vision and the eyes of
W2:265.1  no fear in it. Let no appearance of my “sins” obscure the light of  Heaven, shining on the world. What is reflected here is in God's
W2:WIC.3  and at home in God alone, does Christ remain at peace within the  Heaven of your holy mind. This is the only part of you that has
W2:272.1 Father, the truth belongs to me. My home is set in  Heaven by Your will and mine. Can dreams content me? Can illusions

W2:281.2  today. For I am far beyond all pain. My Father placed me safe in  Heaven, watching over me. And I would not attack the Son He loves,
W2:283.1  idols. I am He my Father loves. His holiness remains the light of  Heaven and the Love of God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is
W2:283.1  of God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is not the light of  Heaven infinite? Is not Your Son my true Identity, when You created
W2:286.1  peace is mine. My heart is quiet and my mind at rest. Your Love is  Heaven, and Your Love is mine.
W2:287.1 Where would I go but  Heaven? What could be a substitute for happiness? What gift could I
W2:292.1  meet. Yet is the ending certain. For God's Will is done in earth and  Heaven. We will seek and we will find according to His Will, which

W2:306.1  today when it can offer me a day in which I see a world so like to  Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me? Today I can forget the
W2:310.1  The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for it comes from  Heaven to Your Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder to remember

W2:326.1  of God, and so I have the power to create like You. And as it is in  Heaven, so on earth. Your plan I follow here, and at the end I know
W2:326.1  the end I know that You will gather Your Effects into the tranquil  Heaven of Your Love, where earth will disappear and separate thoughts
W2:340.2  in fear, and none the Father will not gather to Himself, awake in  Heaven in the Heart of Love.

W2:E.5  that hell will claim you not and that each choice you make brings  Heaven nearer to your reach. And so we walk with Him from this time
M:4.10  for here is Heaven's state fully reflected. From here the way to  Heaven is open and easy. In fact, it is here. Who would “go” anywhere
M:4.15  has meaning to the sane? Who chooses hell when he perceives a way to  Heaven? And who would choose the weakness that must come from harm in

M:11.4  of God has entered. What else but a thought of God turns hell to  Heaven merely by being what it is? The earth bows down before its
M:13.4  all his peace. And to possess them must he sacrifice his hope of  Heaven and remembrance of his Father's Love. Who in his sane mind
M:13.7  is total. There are no “half sacrifices.” You cannot give up  Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in hell. The Word of God
M:14.3  restored. It goes against all the thinking of the world, but so does  Heaven.
M:14.5  it departs, for it will not end as it began. To turn hell into  Heaven is the function of God's teachers, for what they teach are
M:14.5  function of God's teachers, for what they teach are lessons in which  Heaven is reflected. And now sit down in true humility and realize
M:16.10  to give up all that he never had. And for this “sacrifice” is  Heaven restored to his awareness.
M:16.11  Fear is withdrawn from them, and so they go. And thus the Gate of  Heaven is reopened, and its light can shine again on an untroubled

M:19.5  picture the mind desires to see. Remember this. In this lies either  Heaven or hell, as you elect. God's justice points to Heaven just
M:19.5  lies either Heaven or hell, as you elect. God's justice points to  Heaven just because it is entirely impartial. It accepts all evidence
M:21.3  his decision offers it to him, as he requests. Herein lie hell and  Heaven. The sleeping Son of God has but this power left to him. It is
M:21.5  of His Spirit, raising them from meaningless symbols to the call of  Heaven itself.
M:22.1  Atonement is a meaningless idea, just as special areas of hell in  Heaven is inconceivable. Accept Atonement, and you are healed.
M:23.6 No one on earth can grasp what  Heaven is or what its one Creator really means. Yet we have
M:24.6  total escape from the past and total lack of interest in the future.  Heaven is here. There is nowhere else. Heaven is now. There is no
M:24.6  of interest in the future. Heaven is here. There is nowhere else.  Heaven is now. There is no other time. No teaching that does not lead
M:28.2  of forgiveness. There is no sorrow still upon the earth. The joy of  Heaven has come upon it.

W1:166.7  and all the witnesses with proof to show this is not you. You  heed them not. You go on your appointed way, with eyes cast down lest

Tx:13.32 No illusion that you have ever  held against him has touched his innocence in any way. His shining

Tx:17.6 Be willing, then, to give all you have  held outside the truth to Him who knows the truth and in Whom all is
Tx:19.30  The only power which could change perception is thus kept impotent,  held to the body by the fear of changed perception which its teacher,
Tx:19.87  hands, it holds in perfect safety every miracle you will perform,  held out to you. The miracle of life is ageless, born in time but
Tx:19.90  without the fear of death? What would you feel and think if death  held no attraction for you? Very simply, you would remember your
Tx:20.24  the Son of God and give him thanks for all the happiness which he  held out to you? Did you recognize each other as the eternal gift of

Tx:9.83  willing to give up your own perfect helpfulness and your own perfect  Help.
Tx:9.96  Yet the Son is helpless without the Father, Who alone is his  help. We said before that of yourselves you can do nothing, but you
Tx:9.98  you have been much mistaken. Yet this can be corrected, and God will  help you, knowing that you could not sin against Him. You denied Him
Tx:10.5  lies the beginning of knowledge, the foundation on which God will  help you build again the thought system which you share with Him. Not
Tx:10.22  on how you see it. The Holy Spirit is there, although He cannot  help you without your invitation, and the ego is nothing whether you
Tx:10.85  loving thoughts are recognized, and because no one is without your  help, the Help of God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing

Tx:10.85  God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing to accept this  Help by asking for it, you will give it because you want it. Nothing
Tx:11.3  loving thought is true. Everything else is an appeal for healing and  help. That is what it is, regardless of the form it takes. Can anyone
Tx:11.3  Can anyone be justified in responding with anger to a plea for  help? No response can be appropriate except the willingness to give
Tx:11.4  that it is not perfectly clear. If you maintain that an appeal for  help is something else, you will react to something else, and your

Tx:11.6  not perceive God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit does not need your  help in interpreting motivation, but you do need His. Only
Tx:11.6  is due him for both his loving thoughts and his appeals for  help, for both are capable of bringing love into your awareness if

Tx:11.8  of your brother's need is your interpretation of yours. By giving  help you are asking for it, and if you perceive but one need in

Tx:11.10  thoughts in others and to regard everything else as an appeal for  help, He has taught you that fear is an appeal for help. This is what

Tx:13.5  into the darkened world to make Christ's vision possible even here.  Help Him to give His gift of light to all who think they wander in
Tx:13.40  without a difference of any kind. For you will need no contrast to  help you realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not

Tx:15.34  of God and of the Heaven that is in him. For where you would  help your brother be, there will you think you are. Hear not his call
Tx:16.26  not beyond yourself, the witnesses to your teaching have gathered to  help you learn. Their gratitude has joined with yours and God's to
Tx:16.27  gratitude to your Self, Who teaches you what He is, will grow and  help you honor Him. And you will learn His power and strength and
Tx:16.37  waits silently, and your creations are holding out their hands to  help you cross and welcome them. For it is they you seek. You seek
Tx:16.40  hate and in every fantasy that rises to delay you but the call for  help which rises ceaselessly from you to your Creator. Would He not
Tx:16.60  and comfort you. There is a way in which the Holy Spirit asks your  help if you would have His. The holy instant is His most helpful tool
Tx:16.69 The Holy Spirit asks only this little  help of you. Whenever your thoughts wander to a special relationship
Tx:16.79  of God and not the ego in seeking how Atonement can come to you. His  help suffices, for His Messenger understands how to restore the
Tx:16.81 Forgive us our illusions, Father, and  help us to accept our true relationship with You in which there are
Tx:17.53  many mistakes since then, you have also made enormous efforts to  help Him do His work. And He has not been lacking in appreciation for
Tx:18.9  you would have it be. Give Him but a little faith in each other, to  help Him show you that no substitute you made for Heaven can keep you
Tx:18.20  nor snatch it away from you. [But He does use it differently, as a  help to make His purpose real to you.] Your special relationship will
Tx:18.30  fear that you experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to  help us do together what your separate pasts would hinder. You have
Tx:18.42  attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's  help. That is His function. Your part is only to offer Him a little
Tx:18.84  and needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional thought needs  help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son of God, whole
Tx:19.15  will keep your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith  help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden
Tx:19.28  What could it be but a mistake you would keep hidden—a call for  help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the
Tx:19.34  the instant that you give it no power over each other. And you will  help each other overcome mistakes by joyously releasing one another
Tx:19.97  led you here. No obstacle to peace can be surmounted through its  help. It does not open up its secrets and bid you look on them and go
Tx:19.105  and remove all trace of guilt from his disturbed and tortured mind.  Help him to lift the heavy burden of sin you laid upon him and he
Tx:20.3  not wander into the temptation of crucifixion and delay him there.  Help him to go in peace beyond it, with the light of his own
Tx:20.33  you to learn. For He Who knows the rest will see to it without your  help. But think not that He does not need your part to help Him with
Tx:20.33  without your help. But think not that He does not need your part to  help Him with the rest. For in your part lies all of it, without
Tx:20.71  of weakness, vulnerability, and loss of power. Can such a savior  help you? Would you turn in your distress and need for help unto the
Tx:20.71  such a savior help you? Would you turn in your distress and need for  help unto the helpless? Is the pitifully little the perfect choice to
Tx:21.40  serve the Holy Spirit's goal and give it power to serve as means to  help the blind to see. But in their seeing, they look past it, as do
Tx:21.50  from you to be itself. But your awareness of it needs your  help because it is your choice. Listen to what the ego says and see
Tx:21.51  as breathing to the body. They are the obvious response to calls for  help, the only one It makes. Miracles seem unnatural to the ego
Tx:21.59  Reason will also tell you when you think you sin, you call for  help. Yet if you will not accept the help you call for, you will not
Tx:21.59  you think you sin, you call for help. Yet if you will not accept the  help you call for, you will not believe that it is yours to give. And
Tx:21.89  final question. Your answer to the others has made it possible to  help you be but partially insane. And yet it is the final one that
Tx:22.31  a key, across the road to peace. No one who looks on it without the  help of reason would try to pass it. The body's eyes behold it as
Tx:23.5  of him. Leave him not frightened and alone in his temptation but  help him rise above it and perceive the light of which he is a part.
Tx:23.25  this third principle. Now it becomes impossible to turn to Him for  help in misery. For now He has become the “enemy” Who caused it and
Tx:23.25  in its attack. And now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the  help of God. And now salvation must remain impossible because the
Tx:23.26  is the Will of God. From where all this begins, there is no sight of  help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And God
Tx:24.8  you journey with him to a goal that is the same? Would you not  help him reach it in every way you could if his attainment of it were

Tx:25.28 The time he chooses can be any time, for  help is there, awaiting but his choice. And when he chooses to avail
Tx:25.31  himself? Is this a sin or a mistake, forgivable or not? Does he need  help or condemnation? Is it your purpose that he be saved or damned?
Tx:25.71  being separate and apart from love. And what but vengeance now can  help and save, while love stands feebly by with helpless hands,
Tx:25.84 Salvation cannot seek to  help God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles,
Tx:25.84  you want it solved. To keep it for yourself to solve without His  help is to decide it should remain unsettled, unresolved, and lasting
Tx:26.30  learn. And you can learn it many different ways. All learning is a  help or hindrance to the gate of Heaven. Nothing in between is
Tx:26.51  value and less willingly offered to truth for healing and for  help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears some are more
Tx:27.44  only way to heal is to be healed. The miracle extends without your  help, but you are needed that it can begin. Accept the miracle of
Tx:27.59  are but a single sound—a call for healing and a plaintive cry for  help within a world of misery. It is their sameness that the miracle
Tx:28.37  you are free of dreams of pain because you let him be. Unless you  help him, you will suffer pain with him because that is your wish.
Tx:28.61  if you deny yourself your wholeness and your health, the Source of  help, the Call to healing, and the Call to heal? Your savior waits
Tx:28.62  it does, it can be seen as not your home but merely as an aid to  help you reach the home where God abides.
Tx:28.63  disease. Nor is it idly blamed for what it did not do. It serves to  help the healing of God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be
Tx:29.13  that you will look on them and take them for your own. He needs your  help in giving them to all who walk apart believing they are separate
Tx:29.24  him. This is the spark that shines within the dream—that you can  help him waken and be sure his waking eyes will rest on you. And in

Tx:29.30  meant to be. He asks for help in every dream he has, and you have  help to give him if you see the function of the dream as He perceives
Tx:29.69  you are fearful if you do not feel a deep content, a certainty of  help, a calm assurance Heaven goes with you—be sure you made an
Tx:30.1  thing alone—your willingness to practice every step. Each one will  help a little every time it is attempted. And together will these
Tx:30.20 This works against the sense of opposition and reminds you that  help is not being thrust upon you but is something that you want and
Tx:30.29  you decide. For they are made with idols or with God. And you ask  help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose will join with
Tx:30.71  natural reaction to distress which rests on error and thus calls for  help. Forgiveness is the only sane response. It keeps your rights
Tx:31.15  split between the two. And every friend or enemy becomes a means to  help you save yourself from this.
Tx:31.17  for death or calls for life, for hate or for forgiveness and for  help, is not the same in outcome. Hear the one, and you are separate
Tx:31.50  the way you see yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit find a way to  help you see this concept of the self must be undone if any peace of
Tx:31.64  that this should be your choice. For you can see the body without  help but do not understand how to behold a world apart from it. It is
W1:3.2 The point of the exercises is to  help you clear your mind of all past associations, to see things
W1:5.5  giving greater weight to some subjects than to others. It might  help to precede the exercises with the statement:
W1:10.5 This idea will  help to release me from all that I now believe.
W1:10.9 This idea will  help to release me from all that I now believe.
W1:26.4 Practice with today's idea will  help you to understand that vulnerability or invulnerability is the
W1:30.4 Real vision is not limited to concepts such as “near” and “far.” To  help you begin to get used to this idea, try to think of things
W1:33.5  the idea to yourself several times. Closing your eyes will probably  help in this form of application.
W1:34.7  If you find you need more than one application of today's idea to  help you change your mind in any specific context, try to take
W1:34.7  to repeating the idea until you feel some sense of relief. It will  help you if you tell yourself specifically:
W1:38.2  with yourself and with anyone else. It is equal in its power to  help anyone because it is equal in its power to save anyone. If you
W1:50.4  Repeat it, think about it, let related thoughts come to  help you recognize its truth, and allow peace to flow over you like a

W1:62.4  to make the day as happy for you as God wants you to be. And it will  help those around you as well as those who seem to be far away in
W1:64.9  reflecting on this with closed eyes. Related thoughts will come to  help you if you remember the crucial importance of your function to
W1:64.10  may need to repeat “Let me not forget my function” quite often, to  help you concentrate.
W1:69.7  effort and small determination call on the power of the universe to  help you, and God Himself will raise you from darkness into light.
W1:70.4 God would not have put the remedy for sickness where it cannot  help. That is the way your mind has worked, but hardly His. He wants
W1:72.4  with what he does in a body. We are doing more than failing to  help in freeing him from its limitations. We are actively trying to
W1:73.17  you are tempted to hold a grievance of any kind. This will  help you let your grievances go instead of cherishing them and hiding
W1:81.7 Let this  help me learn what forgiveness means. Let me not separate my function
W1:93.2 These are beliefs so firmly fixed that it is difficult to  help you see that they are based on nothing. That you have made
W1:95.19 Do not forget today. We need your  help, your little part in bringing happiness to all the world. And
W1:97.5 Give Him the minutes which He needs today to  help you understand with Him you are the Spirit that abides in Him,
W1:98.13  once more that you accept the part which He would have you take and  help you fill, and He will make you sure you want this choice, which
W1:102.3  to devote our longer practice periods to exercises planned to  help you reach the happiness God's Will has placed in you. Here is
W1:R3.11  things, but try to keep the thought with you and let it serve to  help you keep your peace throughout the day as well. If you are
W1:R3.11  are shaken, think of it again. These practice periods are planned to  help you form the habit of applying what you learn each day to
W1:R3.12  serve you in all ways, all times and places, and whenever you need  help of any kind. Try, then, to take it with you in the business of
W1:125.6  Word in quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon today to  help make ready your most holy mind to hear the Voice of its Creator
W1:126.2  your attitudes have no effect on them, and their appeals for  help are not in any way related to your own. You further think that
W1:126.8  the truth that giver and receiver are the same. You will need  help to make this meaningful because it is so alien to the thoughts
W1:126.8  it is so alien to the thoughts to which you are accustomed. But the  Help you need is there. Give Him your faith today and ask Him that He
W1:126.10  changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat today's idea, and ask for  help in understanding what it really means. Be willing to be taught.
W1:126.12 All that I give is given to myself. The  Help I need to learn that this is true is with me now. And I will
W1:127.5 No laws the world obeys can  help you grasp love's meaning. What the world believes was made to
W1:127.8  what love means. He will shine through your idle thoughts today and  help you understand the truth of love. In loving gentleness, He will
W1:130.8  hands of all the petty treasures of this world. You wait for God to  help you as you say:
W1:136.16  which we give today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to  help us rise above defensiveness and let truth be as it has always
W1:137.10 His life becomes your own as you extend the little  help He asks in freeing you from everything that ever caused you
W1:138.7 So we begin today considering the choice that time was made to  help us make. Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from the
W1:138.9  raised to understanding to be judged again, this time with Heaven's  help, and all mistakes in judgment which the mind had made before are
W1:153.11 It is the function of God's ministers to  help their brothers choose as they have done. God has elected all,

W1:182.11  called you friend and brother. He has even come to you to ask your  help in letting Him go home completed and completely. He has come as
W1:185.10  of what you wanted, where to look for it, and where to turn for  help in the attempt. Help has been given you. And would you not avail
W1:185.10  where to look for it, and where to turn for help in the attempt.  Help has been given you. And would you not avail yourself of it by

W1:193.12 God would not have you suffer thus. He would  help you forgive yourself. His Son does not remember who he is. And
W1:196.12 There is no thought of God that does not go with you to  help you reach that instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and
W1:199.5  you take. There is no thought that will not gain thereby in power to  help the world, and none which will not gain in added gifts to you as
W1:R6.11  He will not fail to be available to you each time you call to Him to  help you. Let us offer Him the whole review we now begin, and let us
W2:234.2  thanks for all the gifts You have bestowed on us, for all the loving  help we have received, for Your eternal patience, and the Word which

Tx:5.3  It is impossible for a Child of God to love his neighbor except as  himself. That is why the healer's prayer is:

Tx:6.37  the Holy Spirit perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees  Himself, and because He is united, He offers the whole Kingdom

Tx:7.5  you are determines your gifts, and if God created you by extending  Himself as you, you can only extend yourself as He did. Only joy
Tx:7.9  which they share, can transfer to it. When a brother perceives  himself as sick, he is perceiving himself as not whole and therefore

Tx:7.14  of the law is not adapted at all, being the law of creation. God  Himself created the law by creating by it. And His Sons, who create
Tx:7.24  efforts and all results. By teaching the power of the Kingdom of God  Himself, He teaches you that all power is yours. Its application does
Tx:7.30 God has lit your minds  Himself and keeps your minds lit by His light, because His light is
Tx:7.43  This is coincidental, because the healer may not be experiencing  himself as truly helpful at the time, but the belief that he is, in

Tx:7.48  It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He  himself must think he can, or he would not perceive himself as sick.
Tx:7.48  His Mind. He himself must think he can, or he would not perceive  himself as sick. He therefore does not know what his self is.
Tx:7.50 That is how God  Himself created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in love.
Tx:7.76 Only honor is a fitting gift for those whom God  Himself created worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the
Tx:7.80  are part of God. You are as lonely without understanding this as God  Himself is lonely when His Sons do not know Him. The peace of God is
Tx:7.91  you to deprive yourself of your creations than He wills to deprive  Himself of His. Do not withhold your gifts to the Sonship, or you
Tx:7.100 Yet the function which God  Himself gave your minds through His you may deny, but you cannot
Tx:7.104  The Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God  Himself trusts you, and therefore your trustworthiness is beyond

Tx:8.9  sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of God should turn to find  himself? The ego has never given you a sensible answer to anything.
Tx:8.14  this is how you were created. Because your Creator creates only like  Himself, you are like Him. You are part of Him Who is all power and
Tx:8.18  teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means of God  Himself.
Tx:8.20  thyself. There is nothing else to learn. Everyone is looking for  himself and for the power and glory he thinks he has lost. Whenever
Tx:8.24  So do you. God gives whatever belongs to Him, because He gives of  Himself, and everything belongs to Him. Giving of your self is the
Tx:8.31  my will alone cannot help you. Your will is as free as mine, and God  Himself would not go against it. I cannot will what God does not
Tx:8.44  he came home, the father welcomed him with joy, because only the son  himself was his father's treasure. He wanted nothing else.
Tx:8.45  left your Creator, but they extend your creation as God extended  Himself to you. Can the creations of God Himself take joy in what is
Tx:8.45  creation as God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of God  Himself take joy in what is not real? And what is real except the
Tx:8.46  be no question of its worth because its value lies in God's sharing  Himself with it and establishing its value forever.
Tx:8.48  It cannot be contradicted by thought. God does not contradict  Himself, and His Sons, who are like Him, cannot contradict themselves
Tx:8.50 Our creations are as holy as we are, and we are the Sons of God  Himself and therefore as holy as He is. Through our creations, we
Tx:8.50  has joined cannot be separated, and God has joined all His Sons with  Himself. Can you be separated from your life and your being?
Tx:8.53  you will always experience depression. When a Child of God thinks of  himself in this way, he is belittling himself and seeing his brothers

Tx:8.57  he is holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with part of God  Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His
Tx:8.98  and, believing that punishment is inevitable, attempts to teach  himself to like it. The truth is, very simply, that no one wants

Tx:9.46 God  Himself is incomplete without me.
Tx:9.47  anything else. Return your part of Him, and He will give you all of  Himself in exchange for your return of what belongs to Him and
Tx:9.56 Can your grandeur be arrogant when God  Himself witnesses to it? And what can be real that has no witnesses?
Tx:9.57  for your return. God, through His Voice, reminds you of it, and God  Himself keeps your extensions safe within it. Yet you do not know

Tx:9.61  And what He knows can be known because He does not know only for  Himself. He created you for Himself, but He gave you the power to

Tx:9.74  do love Him. Can you change your reality? No one can will to destroy  himself. When you think you are attacking yourself, it is a sure sign
Tx:9.77  Your recognition of him as part of God teaches him the truth about  himself, which he is denying. Would you strengthen his denial of God
Tx:9.80  anywhere in the Kingdom merely by denying them completely in  himself. I can heal you because I know you. I know your value for
Tx:9.88  Everything else is merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet God  Himself has protected everything He created by His laws. Therefore,
Tx:9.92  is the remaining call of creation. Put all your faith in it, and God  Himself will answer you.
Tx:9.100  What is of God is His forever, and you are of God. Would He allow  Himself to suffer? And would He offer His Son anything that is not
Tx:9.102  Son if he were not free. To interfere with you would be to attack  Himself, and God is not insane. When you denied Him, you were insane.
Tx:9.102  of God. To know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity. God gave  Himself to you in your creation, and His gifts are eternal. Would you
Tx:9.103  to Him, the Kingdom will be restored to His Son. His Son removed  himself from His gift by refusing to accept what had been created for
Tx:9.103  gift by refusing to accept what had been created for him and what he  himself had created in the Name of his Father. Heaven waits for his
Tx:10.5  For you dwell in the Mind of God with your brother, for God  Himself did not will to be alone.
Tx:10.6  There are no beginnings and no endings in God, Whose universe is  Himself. Can you exclude yourself from the universe or from God, Who

Tx:10.27 God hides nothing from His Son, even though His Son would hide  himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his glory, for God wills him
Tx:10.29  would know what belongs to you. Guard carefully His temple, for He  Himself dwells there and abides in peace. You cannot enter God's
Tx:10.37 At God's altar Christ waits for the restoration of  Himself in you. God knows His Son as wholly blameless as Himself, and
Tx:10.37  of Himself in you. God knows His Son as wholly blameless as  Himself, and He is approached through the appreciation of His Son.
Tx:10.57  Christ they need demonstrate nothing, for Christ speaks to them of  Himself and of His Father. They are silent because Christ speaks to

Tx:10.77 No one can withhold truth except from  himself. Yet God will not refuse the answer He gave you. Ask, then,

Tx:10.87  not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against  himself and perceive no one but through His guidance, for He would

Tx:11.80  love you can never forget Him, for no one can forget what God  Himself placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose
Tx:11.92 The journey which the Son of God has set  himself is foolish indeed, but the journey on which his Father sets
Tx:11.92  of release and joy. The Father is not cruel, and His Son cannot hurt  himself. The retaliation he fears and which he sees will never touch
Tx:12.18  For you call for love to your Father as your Father calls you to  Himself. In that place which you have hidden, you will only to unite
Tx:12.40  should offer Him. For every Son of God is given you to whom God gave  Himself. And it is God to Whom you must offer them to recognize His
Tx:12.43  the vision that is given you, for through Christ's vision He beholds  Himself. And seeing what He is, He knows His Father. Beyond your

Tx:12.65 It is God's Will that nothing touch His Son except  Himself, and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from
Tx:12.65  and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from pain as God  Himself, Who watches over him in everything. The world about him

Tx:13.15  The idea that the guiltless Son of God can attack himself and make  himself guilty is insane. In any form, in anyone, believe this not.
Tx:13.19  your Father has in you. He does not value you as you do. He knows  Himself and knows the truth in you. He knows there is no difference,
Tx:13.28  light. The altar to your Father is as pure as He Who raised it to  Himself. Nothing can keep from you what Christ would have you see.
Tx:13.29  and see the light of love shining as steadily and as surely as God  Himself has always loved His Son. And as His son loves Him. There is
Tx:13.30  no idea what love is like. No one who condemns a brother can see  himself as guiltless in the peace of God. If he is guiltless and in
Tx:13.30  in peace and sees it not, he is delusional and has not looked upon  himself. To him I say,
Tx:13.35  the perceived and harsh intrusion of guilt on peace. Yet no one sees  himself in conflict and ravaged by a cruel war unless he believes
Tx:13.35  between forces that are real and unreal powers, he could look upon  himself and see his freedom. No one finds himself ravaged and torn in
Tx:13.35  powers, he could look upon himself and see his freedom. No one finds  himself ravaged and torn in endless battles which he himself
Tx:13.35  No one finds himself ravaged and torn in endless battles which he  himself perceives as wholly without meaning.

Tx:13.70 No penalty is ever asked of God's Son except by  himself and of himself. Every chance given him to heal is another
Tx:13.70 No penalty is ever asked of God's Son except by himself and of  himself. Every chance given him to heal is another opportunity to
Tx:13.70  darkness with light and fear with love. If he refuses it, he binds  himself to darkness because he did not choose to free his brother and
Tx:13.72  else can His Son see or choose to look upon without imposing on  himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the
Tx:13.87 You who belong to the First Cause, created by Him like unto  Himself and part of Him, are more than merely guiltless. The state of
Tx:13.88  undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He will give  Himself to you as He has always done. Giving Himself is all He knows,
Tx:13.88  Father, He will give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving  Himself is all He knows, and so it is all knowledge. For what He
Tx:13.90  God is right and you are wrong about yourself. He created you out of  Himself but still within Him. He knows what you are. Remember that
Tx:13.90  Son. For this small gift of appreciation for His Love, God will  Himself exchange your gift for His.
Tx:14.1  knowledge is swept away from recognition in the very mind where God  Himself has placed it. If you would but listen and learn how

Tx:14.4  to communicate because each sees the other unlike the way he sees  himself. God can communicate only to the Holy Spirit in your mind
Tx:14.8  away the heavy veils of guilt within which the Son of God has hidden  himself from his own sight. We are all joined in the Atonement here,
Tx:14.10  no fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of God  Himself supports this teaching and guarantees its limitless results.
Tx:14.23  can fail to come where God has called him if he close not the door  himself upon his Father's welcome.
Tx:14.34  Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that God  Himself wills with His Son is quite impossible here. Unbroken and
Tx:14.37 The link with which the Father joins  Himself to those He gives the power to create like Him can never be
Tx:14.37  be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom God gives  Himself, He is given. Your little gifts will vanish on the altar
Tx:14.42  of hidden darkness you have drawn upon it. God will shine upon it of  Himself. Only the clear reflection of Himself can be perceived upon
Tx:14.42  it. God will shine upon it of Himself. Only the clear reflection of  Himself can be perceived upon it. Reflections are seen in light. In
Tx:14.57  wherever it is not recognized, you will recognize it. And God  Himself, Who wills to be with His Son forever, will bless each
Tx:14.67  so little. Yet He cannot compel His Son to turn to Him and remain  Himself. It is impossible that God lose His Identity, for if He did,
Tx:14.67  if He did, you would lose yours. And being yours, He cannot change  Himself, for your identity is changeless. The miracle acknowledges
Tx:14.67  by seeing His Son as he always was and not as he would make  himself. The miracle brings the effects which only guiltlessness can
Tx:14.73  anything. It is only this that you need do. The Holy Spirit will, of  Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for Him.
Tx:15.7  but always as a foretaste of the future. For no one who considers  himself as deserving hell can believe that punishment will end in
Tx:15.18  The blessed instant reaches out to encompass time, as God extends  Himself to encompass you. You who have spent days, hours, and even
Tx:15.27 When God gave  Himself to you in your creation, He established you as host to Him
Tx:15.29  the awareness of magnitude to the host whom God appointed for  Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to give the gift of God,
Tx:15.29  to give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would give  Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone and beyond
Tx:15.38  and immaculate is the holy altar on which your Father has placed  Himself? This you will recognize in the holy instant in which you
Tx:15.62  No one who has not yet experienced the lifting of the veil and felt  himself drawn irresistibly into the light behind it can have faith in
Tx:15.69  savagery belongs not around the chosen host of God, who cannot make  himself host to the ego. In the name of his release, and in the name
Tx:15.71  in love with sacrifice. And for this sacrifice, which he demanded of  himself, he demands the other accept the guilt and sacrifice himself
Tx:15.71  of himself, he demands the other accept the guilt and sacrifice  himself as well. Forgiveness becomes impossible, for the ego believes
Tx:15.82  ensure your perfect creation. This was His gift, for as He withheld  Himself not from you, He withheld not His creation. Nothing that ever
Tx:15.85  you want, it is translated into knowledge by the part which God  Himself plays in the Atonement, for it is the only step in it He
Tx:15.104  to cast it out though it was part of you. Who can perceive part of  himself as loathsome and live within himself in peace? And who can
Tx:15.104  you. Who can perceive part of himself as loathsome and live within  himself in peace? And who can try to resolve the perceived conflict
Tx:15.104  Heaven out and giving it the attributes of hell without experiencing  himself as incomplete and lonely?
Tx:15.105  And who can suffer sacrifice and loss without attempting to restore  himself? Yet how could you accomplish this yourselves when the basis
Tx:15.109  where He would be. And by your welcome does He welcome you into  Himself, for what is contained in you who welcome Him is returned to
Tx:17.1  He need not be forgiven, but awakened. In his dreams he has betrayed  himself, his brothers, and his God. Yet what is done in dreams has
Tx:17.9  forgiveness on it. And with this final blessing of God's Son upon  himself, the real perception, born of the new perspective he has
Tx:17.22  the Creator of the one relationship has left no part of it without  Himself.
Tx:17.52  with you. Think not your choice will leave you comfortless, for God  Himself has blessed your holy relationship. Join in His blessing, and
Tx:18.11  beholds it and rejoices that you have let it come to you. [And God  Himself is glad that your relationship is as it was created.] The
Tx:18.24  insanity. What you forgot was simply that God cannot destroy  Himself. The light is in you. Darkness can cover it but cannot put it
Tx:18.27  only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given forever, for God  Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted God.
Tx:18.31  with you to give the little spark of your desire the power of God  Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are coming home together
Tx:18.49  only this, and He did not depart from it nor leave it separate from  Himself. The Kingdom of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of
Tx:18.50 What could God give but knowledge of  Himself? What else is there to give? The belief that you could give
Tx:18.57  barrier between God and His Son, nor can His Son be separated from  himself except in illusions. This is not his reality, though he
Tx:18.57  God would have had to create differently and to have separated  Himself from His Son to make this possible. He would have had to
Tx:18.57  cannot put a barrier around yourself because God placed none between  Himself and you.
Tx:18.58  experienced what he would call a sense of being transported beyond  himself. This feeling of liberation far exceeds the dream of freedom
Tx:18.63  means you still find sin attractive. No one accepts Atonement for  himself who still accepts sin as his goal. You have thus not met your
Tx:18.94  the messenger of love and not its Source. Here you are led that God  Himself can take the final step unhindered, for here does nothing
Tx:19.12  of God is seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon  himself. Faith sees him only now because it looks not to the past to
Tx:19.14 In the holy instant, you stand before the altar God has raised unto  Himself and both of you. Lay faithlessness aside and come to it
Tx:19.18  is guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making  himself what God created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal,
Tx:19.18  illusion” underlying all the ego's grandiosity. For by it, God  Himself is changed and rendered incomplete.
Tx:19.19 The Son of God can be mistaken; he can deceive  himself; he can even turn the power of his mind against himself. But
Tx:19.19  can deceive himself; he can even turn the power of his mind against  himself. But he cannot sin. There is nothing he can do that would
Tx:19.23  sin is real—the natural expression of what the Son of God has made  himself to be and what he is. To the ego, this is no mistake. For
Tx:19.31  are not. If creation is extension, the Creator must have extended  Himself, and it is impossible that what is part of Him is totally
Tx:19.31  is totally unlike the rest. If sin is real, God must be at war with  Himself. He must be split and torn between good and evil—partly
Tx:19.32  of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than God, before which God  Himself must bow and offer His creation to its conqueror. Is this
Tx:19.39  What need is there for seeing then? When God has taken the last step  Himself, the Holy Spirit will gather all your thanks and gratitude
Tx:19.41  asked to let it go for yourselves alone. Christ asks it of you for  Himself. He would bring peace to everyone, and how can He do this
Tx:19.63  is your Father's Son. He has not lost communion with Him nor with  himself. When you agreed to join each other, you acknowledged this is
Tx:19.73  messages of hatred and attack if he but understood he sends them to  himself? Who would accuse, make guilty, and condemn himself?
Tx:19.73  he sends them to himself? Who would accuse, make guilty, and condemn  himself?
Tx:19.75  guilt is the escape from pain. Not one but must regard the body as  himself, without which he would die, and yet within which is his
Tx:19.80  death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will of God  Himself. Where can such opposition lie but in the sick minds of the
Tx:19.81  by its maker, and lamented by every mourner who looks upon it as  himself. You who believe you have condemned the Son of God to this
Tx:19.85  lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that God  Himself is powerless before the ego's might, unable to protect the
Tx:19.86  nursed by angels, cherished by the Holy Spirit, and protected by God  Himself. It needs not your protection; it is yours. For it is
Tx:19.91  at last. For this dark veil, which seems to make the face of Christ  Himself like to a leper's and the bright rays of His Father's love
Tx:19.102  power to forgive your sins, as you for him. Neither can give it to  himself alone. And yet your savior stands beside each one. Let him be
Tx:19.107  as I look on you, and overlook the sins he thinks he sees within  himself. Offer each other freedom and complete release from sin here
Tx:20.1  a risen Christ becomes the symbol of the Son of God's forgiveness of  himself; the sign he looks upon himself as healed and whole.
Tx:20.1  of the Son of God's forgiveness of himself; the sign he looks upon  himself as healed and whole.
Tx:20.5  acceptance and delight acknowledges the lack of value he places on  himself.
Tx:20.7  and the giver. No one but sees in his chosen home an altar to  himself. No one but seeks to draw to it the worshipers of what he
Tx:20.11  has become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that God  Himself could give. For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have
Tx:20.26  my will for both of you and for each of you for one another and for  himself. Here there is only holiness and joining without limit. For
Tx:20.32  given, whose special function here is to release him and so to free  himself. In the world of separation, each is appointed separately,
Tx:20.37 In this world, God's Son comes closest to  himself in a holy relationship. There he begins to find the certainty
Tx:20.44  should offer it to him and know it rests in safety? He looks upon  himself not as his Father knows him. And yet it is impossible the
Tx:20.56  to choose to spend this instant paying tribute to the body or let  himself be given freedom from it. Here he can accept the holy
Tx:21.17  is the determiner of every situation in which he seems to find  himself by chance or accident. No accident nor chance is possible
Tx:21.21  that he has the power to make God powerless and so to take it for  himself and leave himself without what God has willed for him. This
Tx:21.21  power to make God powerless and so to take it for himself and leave  himself without what God has willed for him. This is the mad idea you
Tx:21.27  are like his Father's. Yet in creating them, the Son does not delude  himself that he is independent of his Source. His union with It is
Tx:21.33  the Son of God believe that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to  himself, but strong in faith in his illusions about himself. For
Tx:21.33  he faithless to himself, but strong in faith in his illusions about  himself. For faith, perception, and belief you made as means for
Tx:21.60  as sinful and still perceive the other innocent. Who looks upon  himself as guilty and sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful
Tx:21.60  sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and look upon  himself apart from it? Sin would maintain you must be separate. But
Tx:21.61 No one can think but for  himself, as God thinks not without His Son. Only were both in bodies
Tx:21.65  because he must be one with you. You are responsible for how he sees  himself. And reason tells you it is given you to change his whole
Tx:21.69  reality. It but attests to it. Where could his freedom lie but in  himself if he be free already? And who could bind him but himself if
Tx:21.69  lie but in himself if he be free already? And who could bind him but  himself if he deny his freedom? God is not mocked; no more His Son
Tx:21.69  there is he held a prisoner, waiting in chains his pardon on  himself to set him free.
Tx:21.71  a sorry army, each one as likely to attack his brother or turn upon  himself as to remember they thought they had a common cause.
Tx:21.74  his helplessness and let sin tell him that his enemy must be  himself. But let him only ask himself these questions, which he must
Tx:21.74  sin tell him that his enemy must be himself. But let him only ask  himself these questions, which he must decide to have it done for him:
Tx:21.84  the Son of God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong who sees  himself as helpless. Desire what you will, and you will look on it
Tx:21.88  because desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom God  Himself will never fail to answer. God has already given him all that
Tx:22.1  perception, seen in the other yet believed by each to be within  himself. And each one seems to make a different error, and one the
Tx:22.2  the other has what he has not. They come together, each to complete  himself and rob the other. They stay until they think there's nothing
Tx:22.3  his completion, he would extend it by joining with another, whole as  himself. He sees no difference between these selves, for differences
Tx:22.15 Christ comes to what is like  Himself; the same, not different. For He is always drawn unto
Tx:22.15  like Himself; the same, not different. For He is always drawn unto  Himself. What is as like Him as a holy relationship? And what draws
Tx:22.24  it were possible the Son of God could leave his Father's Mind, make  himself different, and oppose His Will, would it be possible that the
Tx:22.27  that extends forever is your holy relationship, beloved of God  Himself. How still it rests, in time and yet beyond, immortal yet on
Tx:22.37  his sins. And so it must become impossible for each to see  himself as causing sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet reason
Tx:22.40  it nor you. You will become His messengers, returning Him unto  Himself.
Tx:22.44  it to offer this miracle to everyone! No one who has received it for  himself could find it difficult. For by receiving it, he learned it
Tx:22.56  bring you do not recognize, and yet you will remember. Who can deny  himself the vision that he brings to others? And who would fail to
Tx:22.56  who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in Heaven through  himself? The gentle service that you give the Holy Spirit is service
Tx:23.10  before your sight into the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was God  Himself, to Whom all conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind are

Tx:23.15  who are beloved of Him are no illusions, being as true and holy as  Himself.
Tx:23.20  are more valuable and therefore true. Each one establishes this for  himself and makes it true by his attack on what another values. And
Tx:23.22  What he has done is thus interpreted as an irrevocable sentence upon  himself, which God Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be
Tx:23.22  thus interpreted as an irrevocable sentence upon himself, which God  Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being the
Tx:23.23  as sensible, made real by what the Son of God has done both to  himself and his Creator. The arrogance on which the laws of chaos
Tx:23.26  help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And God  Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. Think not the
Tx:23.35  harm him and be saved. Who can find safety from attack by turning on  himself? How can it matter what the form this madness takes? It is a
Tx:23.52  on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of murder. And God  Himself and all the lights of Heaven will gently lean to you and hold
Tx:24.1  the universe secure? God does not wait upon illusions to let Him be  Himself. No more His Son. They are. And what illusion that idly seems
Tx:24.8  from one another. What you keep is lost to you. God gave you both  Himself, and to remember this is now the only purpose that you share.
Tx:24.10  For each demands the other bow to it against his will. And God  Himself must honor it or suffer vengeance. Every twinge of malice or
Tx:24.14  Him. His “special” sons are many, never one, each one in exile from  himself and Him of Whom they are a part. Nor do they love the Oneness
Tx:24.15  your ears to hear its soundless voice, and yet the Call of God  Himself is soundless to you.
Tx:24.17  all his specialness and all the sins he held in its defense against  himself will vanish as his mind accepts the truth about himself as it
Tx:24.17  against himself will vanish as his mind accepts the truth about  himself as it returns to take their place. This is the only “cost” of
Tx:24.21  savior from your specialness. He is in need of your acceptance of  himself as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to God as God
Tx:24.21  as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to God as God is to  Himself. He is not special, for He would not keep one part of what He
Tx:24.21  He is not special, for He would not keep one part of what He is unto  Himself, not given to His Son but kept for Him alone. And it is this
Tx:24.22 Give him but what he has, remembering God gave  Himself to both of you in equal love that both might share the
Tx:24.22  does him. God's love gave you to him and him to you because He gave  Himself. What is the same as God is one with Him. And only
Tx:24.26  but partly to forgive. No one who clings to one illusion can see  himself as sinless, for he holds one error to himself as lovely
Tx:24.26  one illusion can see himself as sinless, for he holds one error to  himself as lovely still. And so he calls it “unforgivable” and makes
Tx:24.26  then give his forgiveness wholly, when he would not receive it for  himself? For it is sure he would receive it wholly the instant that
Tx:24.26  gave it so. And thus his secret guilt would disappear, forgiven by  himself.
Tx:24.30  them and left behind. Salvation challenges not even death. And God  Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, must say, “Thy will
Tx:24.33  be free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would God condemn  Himself to hell and to damnation? And do you will that this be done
Tx:24.33  out for your forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His Son and on  Himself. Deny them not. They ask of you but that your will be done.
Tx:24.40  in you is very still. He looks on what He loves and knows it as  Himself. And thus does He rejoice at what He sees because He knows
Tx:24.45  the fear you thought you saw within yourself. His holiness shows you  Himself in him whose hand you hold and whom you lead to Him. And what
Tx:24.46  your brother's in your own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in  Himself. He gives them vision for their sightless eyes and sings to
Tx:24.47  in a war with love, consider this: the holy Lord of Heaven has  Himself come down to you to offer you your own completion. What is
Tx:24.48  walks beside you and before, leading the way that He must go to find  Himself complete. His quietness becomes your certainty. And where is

Tx:24.55  a body? Where is your peace but in his holiness? And where is God  Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your brother's
Tx:24.56  benediction unto you. His errors cannot withhold God's blessing from  himself nor you who see him truly. His mistakes can cause delay,
Tx:24.57  to you is done and he is risen from the past. He who condemned  himself, and you as well, is given you to save from condemnation
Tx:24.68  the Father must have a Son. Yet must this Son have been created like  Himself. A perfect being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed,
Tx:25.4  brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the holy Christ unto  Himself; nor are any differences perceived to stand between the
Tx:25.5  stand condemned. Set in his holiness, the Christ in him proclaims  himself as you.
Tx:25.7  His. His Life is manifest in you who are His Son. Each aspect of  Himself is framed in holiness and perfect purity, in love celestial
Tx:25.16  no frame, for what He has created He supports and frames within  Himself. His masterpiece He offers you to see. And would you rather
Tx:25.20  happiness complete and theirs along with His. The gratitude of God  Himself is freely offered to everyone who shares His purpose. It is
Tx:25.22 You are the same, as God  Himself is one and not divided in His Will. And you must have one
Tx:25.24  His Son believes it is, and from His Son's belief He could not let  Himself be separate entirely. He could not enter His Son's insanity
Tx:25.28  help is there, awaiting but his choice. And when he chooses to avail  himself of what is given him, then will he see each situation that he
Tx:25.31  think he can be hurt. What could this be except a misperception of  himself? Is this a sin or a mistake, forgivable or not? Does he need
Tx:25.40  it will give to each an equal strength to save the other and save  himself along with him. Forgiven by you, your savior offers you
Tx:25.42 Against the hatred that the Son of God may cherish toward  himself is God believed to be without the power to save what He
Tx:25.42  save what He created from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows  himself is God made free to let His Will be done. In each of you, you
Tx:25.43  evil, nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is different from  himself. And as he loves them, so he looks upon himself with love and
Tx:25.43  is different from himself. And as he loves them, so he looks upon  himself with love and gentleness. He would no more condemn himself
Tx:25.43  upon himself with love and gentleness. He would no more condemn  himself for his mistakes than damn another. He is not an arbiter of
Tx:25.43  vengeance nor a punisher of sin. The kindness of his sight rests on  himself with all the tenderness it offers others. For he would only
Tx:25.46  his special function and fulfills the part assigned to him to make  himself complete within a world where incompletion rules.
Tx:25.47  by this act of special faithfulness to one perceived as other than  himself, he learns the gift was given to himself, and so they must be
Tx:25.47  one perceived as other than himself, he learns the gift was given to  himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only function

Tx:25.48  was not denied but changed in form to let it serve his brother and  himself and thus become a means to save instead of lose. Salvation is
Tx:25.48  means for either, as he always did. The specialness he chose to hurt  himself did God appoint to be the means for his salvation from the
Tx:25.49  choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against  himself. Only in darkness does your specialness appear to be attack.
Tx:25.50  foundation sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as God  Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin
Tx:25.64  saved. You are not called upon to do what one divided still against  himself would find impossible. Have little faith that wisdom could be
Tx:25.72  at God's right hand and give the Son of God the power to forgive  himself of sin.
Tx:26.4  greater sacrifice could be demanded than that God's Son perceive  himself without his Father? And his Father be without His Son? Yet
Tx:26.9 Condemn him not by seeing him within the rotting prison where he sees  himself. It is your special function to ensure the door be opened
Tx:26.9  to release the holy Son of God from the imprisonment he made to keep  himself from justice? Could your function be a task apart and
Tx:26.25  Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers it until he sees  himself as needing it no more. And thus is he returned to his real
Tx:26.28  miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God  Himself comes to receive each gift that brings him nearer to his
Tx:26.36  no longer is. And who can stand upon a distant shore and dream  himself across an ocean to a place and time that have long since gone
Tx:26.36  he is elsewhere and in another time. In the extreme, he can delude  himself that this is true and pass from mere imagining into belief
Tx:26.52  becomes impatient, splits the world apart, and relegates attack unto  Himself. Thus has He lost His Mind, proclaiming sin has taken His
Tx:26.61  in any form is possible, then is God's Son made incomplete and not  himself. [Nor will he know himself nor recognize his will.] He has
Tx:26.61  then is God's Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he know  himself nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his Father and

Tx:26.67  gift of truth but let to be itself—the Son of God allowed to be  himself and all creation freed to call upon the Name of God as one.
Tx:26.87  than that he be deprived of what he is, denied the right to be  himself, and asked to sacrifice his Father's love and yours as not
Tx:27.4  in its wake. The witness is believed because he points beyond  himself to what he represents. A sick and suffering you but
Tx:27.15  retains no trace of condemnation that he still would hold against  himself or any living thing.
Tx:27.34  not canceled out. And thus is God left free to take the final step  Himself. [For this you need no pictures and no learning aids.] And
Tx:27.44  and received. No one can ask another to be healed. But he can let  himself be healed and thus offer the other what he has received. Who
Tx:27.44  upon another what he does not have? And who can share what he denies  himself? The Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to someone
Tx:27.56  otherwise he lies, if you should call him by the holy Name of God  Himself.
Tx:27.57  what you believe it holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God  Himself what it should feel and what its function is. Yet must He
Tx:27.60  powerless. The purpose of a miracle is to accomplish this. And God  Himself has guaranteed the strength of miracles for what they witness
Tx:27.62  the dreamer is unconscious of what brought on the attack against  himself, he sees himself attacked unjustly and by something not
Tx:27.62  unconscious of what brought on the attack against himself, he sees  himself attacked unjustly and by something not himself. He is the
Tx:27.62  himself, he sees himself attacked unjustly and by something not  himself. He is the victim of this “something else,” a thing outside
Tx:27.62  himself. He is the victim of this “something else,” a thing outside  himself for which he has no reason to be held responsible. He must be
Tx:27.62  what he does, but what is done to him. Yet is his own attack upon  himself apparent still, for it is he who bears the suffering. And he
Tx:27.62  suffering. And he cannot escape because its source is seen outside  himself.
Tx:27.65  Otherwise is the avenger's knife in his own hand and pointed to  himself. And he must see it in another's hand if he would be a victim
Tx:27.65  he suffers from the wounds a knife he does not hold has made upon  himself. This is the purpose of the world he sees. And looked at
Tx:27.68  is how all illusions come about. The one who makes them does not see  himself as making them, and their reality does not depend on him.
Tx:27.73  that he has lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war upon  himself. So fearful is the dream, so seeming real, he could not waken
Tx:27.75  you in holy innocence. And from this dream, the Lord of Heaven will  Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream of your brother's kindnesses
Tx:27.81  No one asleep and dreaming in the world remembers his attack upon  himself. No one believes there really was a time when he knew nothing
Tx:27.82  gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as separate from  himself and done to him. Into eternity, where all is one, there crept
Tx:28.4 The Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God  Himself is there. Yet this is not a memory of past events, but only
Tx:28.12  For in that instant does the Son of God do nothing that would make  himself afraid.
Tx:28.15  an instant will suffice to reach beyond? For God has closed it with  Himself. His memory has not gone by and left a stranded Son forever
Tx:28.18 Always in sickness does the Son of God attempt to make  himself his cause and not allow himself to be his Father's Son. For
Tx:28.18  does the Son of God attempt to make himself his cause and not allow  himself to be his Father's Son. For this impossible desire, he does
Tx:28.21  dream is not awake but does not know he sleeps. He sees illusions of  himself as sick or well, depressed or happy, but without a stable
Tx:28.22  he was author of the dream, and not a figure in the dream. He gives  himself the consequences which he dreams he gave his brother. And it
Tx:28.23  since He was no longer their Creator. In the dream, the dreamer made  himself, but what he made has turned against him, taking on the role
Tx:28.33  room for Him Who wills to come and bridge His Son's returning to  Himself.
Tx:28.37  you share not his wish to separate and let him turn illusions on  himself. Nor do you wish that they be turned instead on you. Thus
Tx:28.39  you, your brother thinks he is a dream. Share not in his illusion of  himself, for your identity depends on his reality. Think rather of
Tx:28.44  instead of just a little broken bit which he insisted was  himself. And when he sees this picture, he will recognize himself. If
Tx:28.44  was himself. And when he sees this picture, he will recognize  himself. If you share not your brother's evil dream, this is the
Tx:28.44  the Father will receive His Son, because His Son was gracious to  himself.
Tx:28.57  you perceive yourself attacked. No one can suffer if he does not see  himself attacked and losing by attack. Unstated and unheard in
Tx:28.59  And what he substitutes is not his will, who has made promise of  himself to God.
Tx:28.60  either, who have promised to be one. God's promise is a promise to  Himself, and there is no one who could be untrue to what He wills as
Tx:28.60  as part of what He is. The promise that there is no gap between  Himself and what He is cannot be false. What will can come between
Tx:28.61  with all your brothers is a part of you because it is a part of God  Himself. Are you not sick if you deny yourself your wholeness and
Tx:28.66  of safety, resting on God's promise that His Son is safe forever in  Himself. What gap can interpose itself between the safety of this
Tx:29.21 Think you the Father lost  Himself when He created you? Was He made weak because He shared His
Tx:29.22  of light where God abides within the darkness, you will see that God  Himself is where his body is. Before this light the body disappears,
Tx:29.24  that have hidden him and shines on you in gratitude and love. He is  himself, but not himself alone. And as his Father lost not part of
Tx:29.24  him and shines on you in gratitude and love. He is himself, but not  himself alone. And as his Father lost not part of Him in your
Tx:29.35  him, created by his Father as His home? If God esteems him worthy of  Himself, would you attack him with the hands of hate? Who would lay
Tx:29.44  lingering illusion, or some dream that there is something outside of  himself that will bring happiness and peace to him. If everything is
Tx:29.44  cannot be so. And therefore by his coming, he denies the truth about  himself and seeks for something more than everything, as if a part of
Tx:29.44  body—that it seek for what he lacks and give him what would make  himself complete. And thus he wanders aimlessly about in search of
Tx:29.45  idol that he seeks is but his death. Its form appears to be outside  himself. Yet does he seek to kill God's Son within and prove that he
Tx:29.53  which you do not have. No one believes in idols who has not enslaved  himself to littleness and loss. And thus must seek beyond his little
Tx:29.60  thing as well. And thus is every living thing a part of you, as of  Himself. No idol can establish you as more than God. But you will
Tx:29.61 The slave of idols is a willing slave. For willing he must be to let  himself bow down in worship to what has no life and seek for power in
Tx:29.61  happened to the holy Son of God that this could be his wish—to let  himself fall lower than the stones upon the ground and look to idols
Tx:29.61  A dream of judgment came into the mind that God created perfect as  Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed to hell, and God made
Tx:29.62  have need of idols which will hold the judgment off from resting on  himself. Nor can he know the Self he has condemned. Judge not,
Tx:29.63  justice that who judges him will not escape the penalty he laid upon  himself within the dream he made. God knows of justice, not of
Tx:29.65  Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and real but seen outside  himself, where they can turn against him for his treachery to them.
Tx:29.65  And so he makes of anything a toy to make his world remain outside  himself, and play that he is but a part of it.
Tx:30.34  not free. And would God leave His Son without what he has chosen for  himself? God but ensured that you would never lose your will when He
Tx:30.35  not your will that it be bound. What lies in you has joined with God  Himself in all creation's birth. Remember He Who has created you and
Tx:30.36  merely waits your blessing to be free? If you be prisoner, then God  Himself could not be free. For what is done to him whom God so loves
Tx:30.36  be free. For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to God  Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you co-creator
Tx:30.42  him, he would not be as God created him. What idol can he need to be  himself? For can he give a part of him away? What is not whole cannot
Tx:30.48  still; the sky has never changed. But you, the holy Son of God  Himself, are unaware of your reality.
Tx:30.56  could God's plan for his salvation be, except a means to give him to  Himself?
Tx:30.59  beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made perfect in  himself. He has no wish for anything but this. And fear has dropped
Tx:30.59  And fear has dropped away because he is united in his purpose with  himself. There is a hope of happiness in him so sure and constant he
Tx:30.60  is forgiveness, not idolatry. And so is Heaven's Son prepared to be  himself, and to remember that the Son of God knows everything his
Tx:30.73  God the sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees  himself as guilty can avoid the fear of God. But he is saved from
Tx:31.4  powerful enough to render God forgotten and His Son an alien to  himself, in exile from the home where God Himself established him.
Tx:31.4  and His Son an alien to himself, in exile from the home where God  Himself established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son of
Tx:31.13  does not respond. Who could be hurt in such a war unless he hurts  himself? He has no enemy in truth. And can he be assailed by dreams?
Tx:31.46  harshly with defenseless innocence? No one who makes a picture of  himself omits this face, for he has need of it. The other side he
Tx:31.56  And everyone believes that he must find the answer to the riddle of  himself. Salvation can be seen as nothing more than the escape from
Tx:31.65  you look upon nor what you choose to feel or think or wish. For God  Himself has said, “Your will be done.” And it is done to you
Tx:31.68  the “good” are innocent. And no one here but holds a concept of  himself in which he counts the “good” to pardon him the “bad.” Nor
Tx:31.75  this he learns when first he looks upon one brother as he looks upon  himself and sees the mirror of himself in him. Thus is the concept of
Tx:31.75  upon one brother as he looks upon himself and sees the mirror of  himself in him. Thus is the concept of himself laid by, for nothing
Tx:31.75  and sees the mirror of himself in him. Thus is the concept of  himself laid by, for nothing stands between his sight and what he
Tx:31.77  torment? Who has learned to see his brother not as this has saved  himself, and thus is he a savior to the rest. To everyone has God
Tx:31.78  upon and sees his own salvation everywhere. He holds no concept of  himself between his calm and open eyes and what he sees. He brings
Tx:31.88 The images you make can not prevail against what God  Himself would have you be. Be never fearful of temptation then, but
W1:35.1  for anyone who thinks he is in this world to believe this of  himself. Yet the reason he thinks he is in this world is because he
W1:38.5  cannot do. In the situation involving ______ in which _____ sees  himself, there is nothing my holiness cannot do.
W1:43.2  means by which the Son of God forgives his brother and thus forgives  himself.
W1:58.4  about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with God  Himself, all idols vanish.
W1:64.3  to regard yourself as unworthy of the task assigned to you by God  Himself.
W1:66.12  rests. We can share in this conclusion, but in no other. For God  Himself shares it with us.
W1:67.4 Any attribute which is in accord with God as He defines  Himself is appropriate for use. We are trying today to undo your
W1:67.4  are also trying to emphasize that you are part of His definition of  Himself.
W1:68.2  you have become, for no one can conceive of his Creator as unlike  himself.
W1:68.4  God in their own image as it is certain that God created them like  Himself and defined them as part of Him. It is as sure that those who
W1:69.7  determination call on the power of the universe to help you, and God  Himself will raise you from darkness into light. You are in accord
W1:72.5  for salvation be? What could it be but death? In trying to present  Himself as the Author of life and not of death, He is a liar and a
W1:72.15  them of the infinite Creator of infinity, Who created you like  Himself:
W1:73.3  is the will of Both together. Would God create a world that kills  Himself?
W1:78.8  us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as holy as  Himself:
W1:94.6  to yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the truth. God has  Himself promised that it will be revealed to all who ask for it. You
W1:95.18  your illusions and your doubts. This is your Self, the Son of God  Himself, sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and His
W1:97.2  Father's love and peace and joy. You are the Spirit which completes  Himself and shares His function as Creator. He is with you always, as
W1:100.3  the world cannot be saved. While you are sad, the light which God  Himself appointed as the means to save the world is dim and
W1:100.10  goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is God  Himself? He will be there. You are essential to His plan. You are His
W1:102.7  less loving to God's Son than He Whose Love created him as loving as  Himself. Besides these hourly five minute rests, pause frequently
W1:105.6 Today accept God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete  Himself as He defines completion. You will understand that what
W1:109.2  is the thought in which the Son of God is born again, to recognize  himself.
W1:110.8  try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of God  Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God and
W1:112.3  me. I will remain forever as I was, Created by the Changeless like  Himself. And I am one with Him, and He with me.
W1:123.3  well that you are changeless, for the Son He loves is changeless as  Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be glad you have a function in
W1:124.1  the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the thought that God  Himself goes everywhere with us.
W1:125.2  it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to save  himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever in his mind
W1:125.5  you return your mind to Him to give His Word to you. He has not hid  Himself from you while you have wandered off a little while from Him.
W1:127.4  are and what love is. Love's meaning is your own, and shared by God  Himself. For what you are is what He is. There is no love but His,
W1:127.4  what He is, is everything there is. There is no limit placed upon  Himself, and so are you unlimited as well.
W1:127.8 Call to your Father, certain that His Voice will answer. He  Himself has promised this. And He Himself will place a spark of truth
W1:127.8  that His Voice will answer. He Himself has promised this. And He  Himself will place a spark of truth within your mind wherever you
W1:129.4  and plain as day, remains unlimited for all eternity. And God  Himself speaks to His Son as His Son speaks to Him. Their language
W1:131.5  God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he try to force delay, deceive  himself, and think that it is hell he seeks. When he is wrong, he
W1:131.9  split in two. How could it be His Son could be in hell when God  Himself established him in Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal
W1:131.10  Son of God make time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies  himself and contradicts what has no opposite. He thinks he made a
W1:132.7  is ready to accept it, and each one must go as far as he can let  himself be led along the road to truth. He will return and go still
W1:132.13  with you who are His Son, for He makes no distinctions in what is  Himself and what is still Himself. What He creates is not apart from
W1:132.13  for He makes no distinctions in what is Himself and what is still  Himself. What He creates is not apart from Him, and nowhere does the
W1:132.14  made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a part of God  Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a world which comes from
W1:133.11  tarnished as his own—the rust a sign of deep unworthiness within  himself. He who would still preserve the ego's goals and serve them
W1:134.10  meaningful and keep your mind as free of guilt and pain as God  Himself intended it to be and as it is in truth. It is but lies which
W1:134.12 He does not have to fight to save  himself. He does not have to kill the dragons which he thought
W1:134.22 No one is crucified alone, and yet no one can enter Heaven by  himself.
W1:135.1 Who would defend  himself unless he thought he was attacked, that the attack is real,
W1:135.1  attacked, that the attack is real, and that his own defense can save  himself? And herein lies the folly of defense—it gives illusions
W1:135.27  value when you have received your function from the Voice of God  Himself?
W1:139.2  who could ask this question except one who has refused to recognize  himself? Only refusal to accept yourself could make the question seem
W1:139.3  he question? Who can answer him? He merely states that he is not  himself and therefore, being something else, becomes a questioner of
W1:140.1  in sickness takes another form, and so the patient now perceives  himself as well.
W1:R4.4  gave creation to the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with  Himself. It is this thought which fully guarantees salvation to the
W1:R4.9  to Him. So will communion with the Lord of Hosts be yours, as He  Himself has willed it be. And as His own completion joins with Him,
W1:151.3  more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal Voice of God  Himself.
W1:151.8  great that doubt is meaningless before Its face. Christ cannot doubt  Himself. The Voice of God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His
W1:152.10  true humility instead to Him Who has created us immaculate, like to  Himself in power and in love. The power of decision is our own. And
W1:152.14  up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask our Self that He reveal  Himself to us. And He Who never left will come again to our
W1:154.12  miracles and then receive a thousand more but will not know that God  Himself has left no gift beyond what you already have nor has denied
W1:155.8  It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step back, he finds  himself again.
W1:155.10  nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as  Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You know not
W1:156.3  His remains unshared by everything that lives. What lives is holy as  Himself because what shares His life is part of Holiness and could no
W1:156.6  perhaps, but who would waste an instant in approach to God  Himself for such a senseless whim?
W1:159.4  the sinless are as one. Their holiness was given by His Father and  Himself.
W1:160.1  but a madman could believe he is what he is not and judge against  himself?
W1:160.3  your place and let you be a stranger to yourself? No one would let  himself be dispossessed so needlessly unless he thought there was
W1:160.5 How simply, then, the question is resolved. Who fears has but denied  himself and said, “I am the stranger here. And so I leave my home to
W1:160.5  knowing who he is, uncertain of all things but this—that he is not  himself and that his home has been denied to him.
W1:160.6 What does he search for now? What can he find? A stranger to  himself can find no home wherever he may look, for he has made return
W1:160.8  God has joined remains forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to  Himself.
W1:161.8  he will attack because what he beholds is his own fear external to  himself, poised to attack and howling to unite with him again.
W1:163.4  down to idols such as this? Here is the strength and might of God  Himself perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite
W1:166.2  solid, trustworthy, and true believes in two creators or in one,  himself alone. But never in one God.
W1:166.3  to claim them as his own, is being pressed to treachery against  himself. He must deny their presence, contradict the truth, and
W1:166.12  thing more you had forgotten. For His touch on you has made you like  Himself. The gifts you have are not for you alone. What He has come
W1:167.10  we imagine it. Who changes life because he shuts his eyes or makes  himself what he is not because he sleeps and sees in dreams an
W1:167.10  an instant where the thought of life eternal has been set by God  Himself.
W1:168.3  which God leans to us and lifts us up, taking salvation's final step  Himself. All steps but this we learn, instructed by His Voice. But
W1:168.3  but this we learn, instructed by His Voice. But finally He comes  Himself and takes us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of our
W1:170.10  impenetrable, fearful and beyond surmounting, is the fear of God  Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of
W1:170.13  of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for love, as God  Himself replaces cruelty.
W1:182.5  home as well. He will return. But give Him just a little time to be  Himself within the peace that is His home, resting in silence and in
W1:182.7  unceasingly to you. For He would bring you back with Him, that He  Himself might stay and not return again where He does not belong and
W1:183.6  minds, you have established there an altar which reaches to God  Himself and to His Son. Practice but this today; repeat God's Name

Tx:29.8 The body, innocent of any goal, is your excuse for variable goals you  hold and force the body to maintain. You do not fear its weakness,

Tx:30.64  of the world of fear when you have recognized Whose hand you  hold! Within your hand is everything you need to walk with perfect
Tx:30.64  and quickly reach the gate of Heaven itself. For He Whose hand you  hold was waiting but for you to join Him. Now that you have come,
Tx:30.68  when you look back, and you will not perceive Whose loving hand you  hold. Look forward, then, and walk in confidence with happy hearts
Tx:30.94  you look upon when you decide there is not one appearance you would  hold in place of what your brother really is. Let no temptation to
Tx:31.12  ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception which we  hold of what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember
Tx:31.30  source of sin and keep it in the prison-house it chose and guard and  hold itself at bay, a sleeping prisoner to the snarling dogs of hate
Tx:31.31  no one as prisoner to what you have escaped. You will not want to  hold in guilt your chosen enemies nor keep in chains to the illusion
Tx:31.62  What you decide in this determines all you see and think is real and  hold as true. On this one choice does all your world depend, for here
Tx:31.72  On its behalf, remember what the concept of yourself which now you  hold has brought you in its wake, and welcome the glad contrast
Tx:31.72  brought you in its wake, and welcome the glad contrast offered you.  Hold out your hand that you may have the gift of kind forgiveness
Tx:31.73 The concept of yourself which now you  hold would guarantee your function here remain forever unaccomplished
Tx:31.73  and futility. Yet it need not be fixed unless you choose to  hold it past the hope of change and keep it static and concealed
Tx:31.76  space that holds your brother off unoccupied by love. Yet while you  hold this sword, you must perceive the body as yourself, for you are

Tx:15.106  that you would keep away holds all the meaning of the universe and  holds the universe together in its meaning. For unless the universe

Tx:18.12  this world and through another to the loveliness and joy the other  holds within it. Would you still further weaken and break apart what
Tx:18.62  with your desire for it is the irresistible appeal the holy instant  holds. It calls to you to be yourself within its safe embrace. There
Tx:19.51 The fierce attraction which guilt  holds for fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. What

Tx:20.75  is the projection which gives the “nothing” all the meaning that it  holds.
Tx:21.66  from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still  holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness.

Tx:22.19  is faith in sin if the belief excludes one living thing and  holds it out apart from its forgiveness.
Tx:22.21  to the ego this must be impossible, and no one undertakes to do what  holds no hope of ever being done. You know what your Creator wills is
Tx:22.47  nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in between. God  holds your hands, and what can separate whom He has joined as one
Tx:23.12  made them is insane, and they remain part of what made them. Madness  holds out no menace to reality and has no influence upon it.
Tx:23.30  is for? And here a final principle of chaos comes to the rescue. It  holds there is a substitute for love. This is the “magic” that will
Tx:24.1  it is His Will. Can you believe a shadow can hold back the Will that  holds the universe secure? God does not wait upon illusions to let
Tx:24.23  love's substitute and serve it faithfully. And no relationship that  holds its purpose dear but clings to murder as safety's weapon and
Tx:24.26  No one who clings to one illusion can see himself as sinless, for he  holds one error to himself as lovely still. And so he calls it
Tx:24.33  both from hell. Look on the print of nails upon his hands that he  holds out for your forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His Son and on
Tx:24.42  the sights He sees, the sounds He hears. How beautiful His hand that  holds His brother's, and how lovingly He walks beside him, showing
Tx:24.44  because they serve a different purpose, the strength their purpose  holds is given them. And what they see and hear and hold and lead is
Tx:24.46  love is in you now and safely held in you by that same hand that  holds your brother's in your own. Christ's hand holds all His
Tx:24.46  that same hand that holds your brother's in your own. Christ's hand  holds all His brothers in Himself. He gives them vision for their
Tx:24.58  him not as prisoner to them. It cannot be what governs part of God  holds not for all the rest. You place yourself under the laws you see
Tx:25.16  that God has set within this frame is all there is to see. The body  holds it for a while without obscuring it in any way. Yet what God
Tx:25.79  given to God's Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but  holds out his hand in willingness they be received. Nor is the
Tx:26.42  day and every minute in each day and every instant that each minute  holds, you but relive the single instant when the time of terror was
Tx:26.56  be true? What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which  holds all things within Itself? There is no sin. And every miracle is
Tx:27.15  as well. For no one in whom true forgiveness reigns can suffer. He  holds not the proof of sin before his brother's eyes. And thus he
Tx:27.43  has been barred. But bring the problem to the only place which  holds the answer lovingly for you. Here are the answers which will
Tx:27.56 This body, purposeless within itself,  holds all your memories and all your hopes. You use its eyes to see,
Tx:27.57  knows it is not real. For nothing could contain what you believe it  holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God Himself what it should
Tx:28.4  a present state. You are so long accustomed to believe that memory  holds only what is past that it is hard for you to realize it is a
Tx:28.5  a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go. Memory  holds the message it receives and does what it is given it to do. It
Tx:28.16  no end. Its starting and its ending are the same. But in itself it  holds the universe of all creation, without beginning and without an
Tx:28.19  what you wanted shown to you. An empty storehouse with an open door  holds all your shreds of memories and dreams. Yet if you are the
Tx:28.31  and love was never in the world of dreams. The gap is little. Yet it  holds the seeds of pestilence and every form of ill because it is a
Tx:29.14  now can do could not be done without the love and grace His Presence  holds.
Tx:29.35  on Heaven itself and hope to find its peace? Your brother thinks he  holds the hand of death. Believe him not. But learn instead how
Tx:30.42  content you not, but in the whole completely lovely Thought God  holds of you.
Tx:30.44  it. It was always there, but you were unaware of it. The Thought God  holds of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. It will
Tx:30.45  not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering. The Thought God  holds of you is like a star, unchangeable in an eternal sky. So high
Tx:30.46  knows the Father knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which  holds it safe, forever lifted up, and anchored sure. Its perfect
Tx:30.46  whether it is seen on earth or not. The sky embraces it and softly  holds it in its perfect place, which is as far from earth as earth
Tx:30.47 Beyond all idols is the Thought God  holds of you. Completely unaffected by the turmoil and the terror of
Tx:30.47  of forms that fear can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God  holds of you remains exactly as it always was. Surrounded by a
Tx:30.47  changelessness and of its rest in its eternal home, the Thought God  holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as
Tx:30.48 Where could the Thought God  holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a thing apart
Tx:30.48  Nor can you be aware of more than one. An idol or the Thought God  holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that idols must keep
Tx:31.23  but his call for mercy and release from all the fearful images he  holds of what he is and of what you must be. He is afraid to walk
Tx:31.25  the journey is and how it must be made. For next to you is One Who  holds the light before you so that every step is made in certainty
Tx:31.29  that the mind need serve nor sets conditions that it must obey. It  holds in prison but the willing mind that would abide in it. It
Tx:31.68  are the guilty “bad;” the “good” are innocent. And no one here but  holds a concept of himself in which he counts the “good” to pardon
Tx:31.76  you and your brother, kept apart by an illusion of yourself which  holds him off from you and you away from him. The sword of judgment
Tx:31.76  to the illusion of yourself that it may fight to keep the space that  holds your brother off unoccupied by love. Yet while you hold this
Tx:31.76  yourself, for you are bound to separation from the sight of him who  holds the mirror to another view of what he is and thus what you must
Tx:31.78  in all he looks upon and sees his own salvation everywhere. He  holds no concept of himself between his calm and open eyes and what
Tx:31.80  by old concepts and prepared to look on only what the present  holds. It cannot judge because it does not know. And recognizing
W1:22.1 Today's idea accurately describes the way anyone who  holds attack thoughts in his mind must see the world. Having
W1:23.4  where is the world you see when its cause is gone? Vision already  holds a replacement for everything you think you see now. Loveliness
W1:45.1 Today's idea  holds the key to what your real thoughts are. They are nothing that
W1:53.4  offers no grounds for trust. Nothing in madness is dependable. It  holds out no safety and no hope. But such a world is not real. I have
W1:56.4 [28] Above all else I want to see differently. The world I see  holds my fearful self-image in place, and guarantees its continuance.
W1:57.2  prison door is open. I can leave it simply by walking out. Nothing  holds me in this world. Only my wish to stay keeps me a prisoner. I
W1:68.3  Can all this arise from holding grievances? Oh, yes! For he who  holds grievances denies he was created by Love, and his Creator has
W1:68.10 Love  holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances go, I will know I
W1:68.12 Love  holds no grievances. Let me not betray my Self.
W1:68.14 Love  holds no grievances. I would wake to my Self by laying all my

W1:84.5 [68] Love  holds no grievances. Grievances are completely alien to love.
W1:96.8  they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy Spirit  holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to peace.
W1:96.8  it was done. Thus is salvation kept among the thoughts your Self  holds dear and cherishes for you.
W1:99.5 The Holy Spirit  holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him within the
W1:106.3  to the truth. Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who  holds your happiness within His hand, held out to you in welcome and
W1:108.5  to all minds. For these are but some special cases of one law which  holds for every kind of learning if it be directed by the One Who
W1:122.11  the peace forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil  holds out to you.
W1:123.8 Receive His thanks, and you will understand how lovingly He  holds you in His Mind, how deep and limitless His care for you, how
W1:124.12 Add further jewels to the golden frame that  holds the mirror offered you today by hourly repeating to yourself:
W1:126.3  a true equality with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It  holds out a gift to him but hardly to yourself.
W1:127.3  everything as one, the link between the Father and the Son which  holds them both forever as the same.
W1:129.6  loss can be for you in choosing not to value nothingness? This world  holds nothing that you really want, but what you choose instead you
W1:138.11  brought to what is real, is flimsy and transparent in the light. It  holds no terror now, for what was made enormous, vengeful, pitiless
W1:R4.3 My mind  holds only what I think with God.
W1:R4.6 And yet your mind  holds only what you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot take
W1:R4.8 My mind  holds only what I think with God.
W1:153.11  fail to teach what you have learned, salvation waits and darkness  holds the world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you learn that light
W1:157.8  journey which you make and start today with the experience this day  holds out to you to be your own.
W1:164.9  unsatisfying goals? Let not today slip by without the gifts it  holds for you receiving your consent and your acceptance. We can
W1:164.9  you? Can His promise fail? Can you withhold so little when His Hand  holds out complete salvation to His Son?
W1:166.3 The gifts of God are not acceptable to anyone who  holds such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to accept God's
W1:166.12  you, you now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His giving  holds, for He has saved you from the solitude you sought to make in
W1:169.5  idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No mind  holds anything but Him. We say “God is,” and then we cease to speak,
W1:169.7  in His Mind, accomplished and complete. He recognized all that time  holds and gave it to all minds that each one might determine from a
W1:182.9  only love's messages to those who think he is their enemy. He  holds the might of Heaven in His hand and calls them friend, and
W1:183.3  the world responds by laying down illusions. Every dream the world  holds dear has suddenly gone by, and where it seemed to stand you
W1:183.9  silently, and let His Name become the all-encompassing idea which  holds your mind completely. Let all thoughts be still except this
W1:183.11  and it is given you. No prayer but this is necessary, for it  holds them all within it. words are insignificant and all requests
W1:186.1  away from every mind. Here is the thought of true humility which  holds no function as your own but that which has been given you. It
W1:186.3  your Father still remembers you and offers you the perfect trust He  holds in you who are His Son. It does not ask that you be different
W1:190.9  and come without defense into the quiet place where Heaven's peace  holds all things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and
W1:192.4  is the means by which the fear of death is overcome because it  holds no fierce attraction now, and guilt is gone.
W1:194.4 God  holds your future as He holds your past and present. They are one to

W1:198.12  unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the gift the Holy Spirit  holds for you from God your Father. Let today be celebrated both on
W1:199.3  dear. Be not concerned that to the ego it is quite insane. The ego  holds the body dear because it dwells in it and lives united with the
W2:222.1  safety from all pain. He covers me with kindness and with care and  holds in love the Son He shines upon, who also shines on Him. How
W2:WS.4  our final dream. It is a dream in which there is no sorrow, for it  holds a hint of all the glory given us by God. The grass is pushing
W2:241.1  joy there is today! It is a time of special celebration. For today  holds out the instant to the darkened world where its release is set.
W2:252.1  have ever looked upon. Its love is limitless, with an intensity that  holds all things within it in the calm of quiet certainty. Its
W2:264.1  that stands beyond Your one creation or without the Love Which  holds all things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We
W2:WIRW.2 The real world  holds a counterpart for each unhappy thought reflected in your world,
W2:293.2  the sounds of fear. There is a real world which the present  holds safe from all past mistakes. And I would see only this world
W2:330.1  images of pain? Why should we teach them they are powerless when God  holds out His power and His love and bids them take what is already
W2:332.2 We would not bind the world again today. Fear  holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the means to set it
W2:338.2  But the Thought You gave me promises to lead me home, because it  holds Your promise to Your Son.
W2:340.1  I was born into this world but to achieve this day and what it  holds in joy and freedom for Your holy Son and for the world he made,

M:22.2  God has given him long before he has learned all that his acceptance  holds out to him. It is only the end that is certain. Anywhere along
M:27.2  in dust and disappointment and despair could but be feared. He  holds your little life in his hand but by a thread, ready to break it
M:27.3  of the fear of God. His love is blotted out in the idea, which  holds it from awareness like a shield held to obscure the sun. The
M:27.3  of the symbol is enough to show it cannot co-exist with God. It  holds an image of the Son of God in which he is “laid to rest” in

W1:155.12 We walk to God. Pause and reflect on this. Could any way be  holier or more deserving of your effort, of your love, and of your
W1:183.1 God's Name is holy, but no  holier than yours. To call upon His Name is but to call upon your

Tx:1.43  miracle uncovers it and brings it into the light where it belongs.  Holiness can never be really hidden in darkness, but man can deceive
Tx:1.44  miracles, which are really intercessions. They intercede for man's  holiness and make his perceptions holy. By placing him beyond the

Tx:1.83  It does this by the underlying recognition of perfect equality and  holiness between the doer and the receiver on which the miracle rests.
Tx:2.45  step is to realize that a temple is not a building at all. Its real  holiness lies in the inner altar around which the building is built.

Tx:14.38  not make holy. You were created holy. It merely brings unholiness to  holiness, or what you made to what you are. The bringing together of

Tx:15.11 Time is inconceivable without change, yet  holiness does not change. Learn from this instant more than merely
Tx:15.13  to give it to your brothers on behalf of theirs. For the instant of  holiness is shared, and cannot be yours alone. Remember, then, when
Tx:15.14  your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be holy if you offer  holiness. How long is an instant? As long as it takes to reestablish
Tx:15.15  to you. He Who transcends time for you understands what time is for.  Holiness lies not in time but in eternity. There never was an instant
Tx:15.15  beyond attack and without variability. Time stands still in his  holiness and changes not. And so it is no longer time at all. For,
Tx:15.17 Do not be concerned with time and fear not the instant of  holiness which will remove all fear. For the instant of peace is

Tx:15.29  the birth of holiness into this world, join with me, who decided for  holiness for you. It is our task together to restore the awareness of

Tx:15.58 All separation vanishes as  holiness is shared. For holiness is power, and by sharing it, it
Tx:15.58 All separation vanishes as holiness is shared. For  holiness is power, and by sharing it, it gains in strength. If you

Tx:15.102  total to give Him welcome, for the Presence of Holiness creates the  holiness which surrounds it. No fear can touch the host who cradles
Tx:16.10 You still think  holiness is difficult because you cannot see how it can be extended
Tx:16.10  everyone to be holy. Concern yourselves not with the extension of  holiness, for the nature of miracles you do not understand. Nor do
Tx:16.17  will increase, and peace will grow with its increase. The power of  holiness and the weakness of attack have both been brought into
Tx:16.17  And this has been accomplished in minds firmly convinced that  holiness is weakness and attack is power. Should not this be a
Tx:16.38  your completion. Fear not to cross to the abode of peace and perfect  holiness. Only there is the completion of God and of His Son
Tx:16.67  for you have come too far to yield to the illusion of the beauty and  holiness of guilt. Only the wholly insane could look on death and
Tx:16.81  in which there are no illusions and where none can ever enter. Our  holiness is Yours. What can there be in us that needs forgiveness
Tx:17.16  relationship unholy. For unholiness seeks to reinforce itself, as  holiness does, by gathering to itself what it perceives as like
Tx:17.22  Whom God has joined as one, the ego cannot break apart. The spark of  holiness must be safe, however hidden it may be, in every

Tx:17.67  can be lacking in any situation. But remember this: the goal of  holiness was set for your relationship and not by you. You did not
Tx:17.67  set for your relationship and not by you. You did not set it because  holiness cannot be seen except through faith, and your relationship
Tx:17.69  faithlessness against each other. No relationship is holy unless its  holiness goes with it everywhere. As holiness and faith go hand in
Tx:17.69  relationship is holy unless its holiness goes with it everywhere. As  holiness and faith go hand in hand, so must its faith go everywhere
Tx:18.20  therein lay its misery. As its unholiness kept it a thing apart, its  holiness will become an offering to everyone.
Tx:18.27  received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted God. The  holiness of your relationship is established in Heaven. You do not
Tx:18.35  yourself for Him. It is impossible to make arrogant preparations for  holiness and not believe that it is up to you to establish the
Tx:18.46 When you feel the  holiness of your relationship is threatened by anything, stop
Tx:18.84 You have been told to bring the darkness to the light and guilt to  holiness. And you have also been told that error must be corrected at
Tx:19.13  not recognize salvation in each other. Yet faith unites you in the  holiness you see, not through the body's eyes but in the sight of Him
Tx:19.20  arrogance, and the acceptance of the self as sinful is perceived as  holiness. And it is this doctrine which replaces the reality of the
Tx:19.38  with Him? For it is He Who offered your relationship the gift of  holiness, without which it would have been forever impossible to
Tx:19.103  loveliness. Yet still He holds forgiveness out to you to share His  holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still offers you salvation as
Tx:19.105  offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been given the gift of  holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove all trace of guilt
Tx:20.4  joy and not of mourning. Look on your risen Friend and celebrate his  holiness along with me. For Easter is the time of your salvation,
Tx:20.13  joy. We go beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other's way. The  holiness that leads us is within us, as is our home. So will we find
Tx:20.18  not afraid of it, for it is within the truth they recognized their  holiness and rejoiced at what they saw. They looked on it directly,
Tx:20.24  each other as the eternal gift of God to you? Did you see the  holiness that shone in both of you to bless the other? That is the
Tx:20.25  your freedom lies. He seemed to be crucified beside you. And yet his  holiness remained untouched and perfect, and with him beside you, you
Tx:20.26  for each of you for one another and for himself. Here there is only  holiness and joining without limit. For what is Heaven but union,
Tx:20.59  that follows the sudden change in a relationship from sin to  holiness should now be almost over. To the extent you still

Tx:20.61  Is this not perfectly consistent with the goal of holiness? For  holiness is merely the result of letting the effects of sin be lifted
Tx:20.61  always true is recognized. To see a sinless body is impossible, for  holiness is positive, and the body is merely neutral. It is not
Tx:20.75 Only two purposes are possible. And one is sin, the other  holiness. Nothing is in between, and which you choose determines what
Tx:20.77  come after? Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the  holiness God gave His Son. And never need you think that there is
Tx:21.2  disaster and catastrophe, you tried to crucify him. If you see  holiness and hope, you joined the Will of God to set him free. There
Tx:21.22 The Holy Spirit can give you faith in  holiness and vision to see it easily enough. But you have not left
Tx:21.31  opposite directions. What faith you give to sin you take away from  holiness. And what you offer holiness has been removed from sin.
Tx:21.31  you give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you offer  holiness has been removed from sin.
Tx:21.32 Faith and belief and vision are the means by which the goal of  holiness is reached. Through them the Holy Spirit leads you to the
Tx:21.34  is all you want to see. Then will you give your faith to  holiness, desiring and believing in it because of your desire.
Tx:21.35  as all the means that once served sin are redirected now toward  holiness. For what you think is sin is limitation, and whom you try
Tx:21.35  are dear to you. And so the body has your faith and your belief. But  holiness would set your brother free, removing hatred by removing
Tx:21.36  all limitations be removed. Desiring to look upon their brothers in  holiness, the power of belief and faith goes far beyond the body,
Tx:21.36  all who choose to look away from sin are given vision and are led to  holiness.
Tx:21.90  will never change. For you have asked that nothing stand between the  holiness of your relationship and your awareness of its holiness.
Tx:21.90  between the holiness of your relationship and your awareness of its  holiness.
Tx:22.2 The  holiness of your relationship forgives you both, undoing the effects
Tx:22.3  enough not to return to earth. For this relationship has Heaven's  holiness. How far from home can a relationship so like to Heaven be?
Tx:22.12  seeming new and yet as old as He, a tiny newcomer, dependent on the  holiness of your relationship to let Him live.
Tx:22.36 Let not the form of his mistakes keep you from him whose  holiness is yours. Let not the vision of his holiness, the sight of
Tx:22.36  keep you from him whose holiness is yours. Let not the vision of his  holiness, the sight of which would show you your forgiveness, be kept
Tx:22.36  with his body, which you believe can sin? Beyond his errors is his  holiness and your salvation. You gave him not his holiness but tried
Tx:22.36  his errors is his holiness and your salvation. You gave him not his  holiness but tried to see your sins in him to save yourself. And yet
Tx:22.36  but tried to see your sins in him to save yourself. And yet his  holiness is your forgiveness. Can you be saved by making sinful the
Tx:22.36  is your forgiveness. Can you be saved by making sinful the one whose  holiness is your salvation?
Tx:22.37 A holy relationship, however newly born, must value  holiness above all else. Unholy values will produce confusion, and in
Tx:24.10  made clean of special goals. And would you now defeat the goal of  holiness that Heaven gave it? What perspective can the special have
Tx:24.31  the great Creator of the universe, the Source of life, of love and  holiness, the perfect Father of a perfect Son, for your illusions of
Tx:24.45  God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within yourself. His  holiness shows you Himself in him whose hand you hold and whom you
Tx:24.46  out His hand that everyone may bless all living things and see their  holiness. And He rejoices that these sights are yours to look upon
Tx:24.47  you except he be as perfect as yourself and just as like to Him in  holiness as you must be?
Tx:24.49 Before your brother's  holiness the world is still and peace descends on it in gentleness
Tx:24.49  you that all your doubts about yourself may disappear before his  holiness. See in him God's creation. For in him, his Father waits for
Tx:24.50  not part of Him, and nothing is but is alive in Him. Your brother's  holiness shows you that God is one with him and you—that what he
Tx:24.53  both in hell. Yet will his perfect sinlessness release you both, for  holiness is quite impartial, with one judgment made for all it looks
Tx:24.54  no sight nor place nor time where He is not. Within your brother's  holiness, the perfect frame for your salvation and the world's, is
Tx:24.54  brother's body shows not Christ to you. He is set forth within his  holiness.
Tx:24.55 Choose, then, his body or his  holiness as what you want to see, and which you choose is yours to
Tx:24.55  your salvation if he is but a body? Where is your peace but in his  holiness? And where is God Himself but in that part of Him He set
Tx:24.55  God Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your brother's  holiness that you might see the truth about yourself set forth at
Tx:24.56 Your brother's  holiness is sacrament and benediction unto you. His errors cannot
Tx:24.56  judgment you have laid on both of you. The Christ in you beholds his  holiness. Your specialness looks on his body and beholds him not.
Tx:24.58  in you can see your brother truly. Would you decide against the  holiness He sees?
Tx:24.61 You who believe it easier to see your brother's body than his  holiness, be sure you understand what made this judgment. Here is the
Tx:24.63  and your changelessness is recognized in its acknowledgment. The  holiness in you belongs to him. And by your seeing it in him, returns
Tx:24.64  claims you instead? How can you fail to know it is in his  holiness? Seek not to make your specialness the truth, for if it
Tx:24.64  be lost indeed. Be thankful, rather, it is given you to see his  holiness because it is the truth. And what is true in him must be as
Tx:24.65  is your condemnation of your own. Weave, rather then, a frame of  holiness around him that the truth may shine on him and give you
Tx:24.66  for nothing. Whatever is perceived as means for truth shares in its  holiness and rests in light as safely as itself. Nor will that light
Tx:25.1  be housed in death. No more can you. Christ is within a frame of  holiness whose only purpose is that He may be made manifest to those
Tx:25.1  were. Then will their bodies melt away that they may frame His  holiness in them.
Tx:25.2  Son of God abide exactly where he is and walks with him within his  holiness, as plain to see as is his specialness set forth within his
Tx:25.3  His purpose folds the body in His light and fills it with the  holiness that shines from Him. And nothing that the body says or does
Tx:25.4  means to do it. For the mind is His. And so it must be yours. His  holiness directs the body through the mind at one with Him. And you
Tx:25.4  are any differences perceived to stand between the aspects of His  holiness, which meet and join and raise Him to His Father, whole and
Tx:25.5 How can you manifest the Christ in you except you look on  holiness and see Him there? Perception tells you, you are manifest in
Tx:25.5  you will see your sinfulness wherein you stand condemned. Set in his  holiness, the Christ in him proclaims himself as you.
Tx:25.7  manifest in you who are His Son. Each aspect of Himself is framed in  holiness and perfect purity, in love celestial and so complete it
Tx:25.18  it, not in flesh and bones, but in a frame as lovely as Itself. Its  holiness lights up the sinlessness the frame of darkness hides and
Tx:25.18  of death. God kept it safe that you might look on it and see the  holiness that He has given it.
Tx:25.19  becomes your strength, and both will gladly look within and see the  holiness that must be there because of what you looked upon in him.
Tx:25.19  of what you looked upon in him. He is the frame in which your  holiness is set, and what God gave him must be given you. However
Tx:25.73  from him? For that would be injustice and unfair indeed to all the  holiness that is in him, however much he recognize it not. God knows
Tx:26.5  as Heaven itself. No instant passes here in which your brother's  holiness cannot be seen, to add a limitless supply to every meager
Tx:26.6  to witness to that you may see it and rejoice with him. Make not his  holiness a sacrifice to your belief in sin. You sacrifice your
Tx:26.7 Yet every instant can you be reborn and given life again. His  holiness gives life to you, who cannot die because his sinlessness is
Tx:26.79  of light. Because of Them. It is Their Presence which has lifted  holiness again to take its ancient place upon an ancient throne.
Tx:28.45  gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your  holiness, complete and perfect, lies in every one of them. And they
Tx:28.66  Son unto his home. And with this holy purpose is it made a home of  holiness a little while because it shares your Father's Will with you.
Tx:29.68  the song of Heaven can be heard, not with the ears, but with the  holiness which never left the altar which abides forever deep within
Tx:31.78  could you be the savior of the Son of God? How would you know his  holiness while you see him apart from yours? For holiness is seen
Tx:31.78  would you know his holiness while you see him apart from yours? For  holiness is seen through holy eyes that look upon the innocence
Tx:31.87  release your minds from everything that hides His face from you. His  holiness is yours because He is the only power that is real in you.
Tx:31.91  as natural as fear and agony appeared to be before the choice for  holiness was made. For in that choice are false distinctions gone,
W1:29.3  stands beyond your little range. When vision has shown you the  holiness that lights up the world, you will understand today's idea
W1:35.4  unreal because you do not look upon yourself through the eyes of  holiness.
W1:36.1  or a part of His Mind would be sinful. Your sight is related to His  holiness, not to your ego and therefore not to your body.

W1:38.1 Your  holiness reverses all the laws of the world. It is beyond every
W1:38.1  restriction of time, space, distance, and limits of any kind. Your  holiness is totally unlimited in its power because it establishes you
W1:38.1  as a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. Through your  holiness, the power of God is made manifest. Through your holiness
W1:38.1  your holiness, the power of God is made manifest. Through your  holiness the power of God is made available. And there is nothing the

W1:39.4 Your  holiness is the answer to every question that was ever asked, is

W1:152.2  of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect  holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at
W1:156.3 Yet where He is there must be  holiness as well as life. No attribute of His remains unshared by
W1:156.3  lives is holy as Himself because what shares His life is part of  Holiness and could no more be sinful than the sun could choose to be
W1:156.5  The light you carry is their own, and thus they see in you their  holiness, saluting you as savior and as God. Accept their reverence,
W1:156.5  you as savior and as God. Accept their reverence, for it is due to  Holiness itself Which walks with you, transforming in Its gentle
W1:156.9 I walk with God in perfect  holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all the minds which

W1:158.11  is reflected in a way so accurate its image shares its unseen  holiness; its likeness shines with its immortal love. We practice
W1:159.4  no sin in anyone, and in His sight the sinless are as one. Their  holiness was given by His Father and Himself.
W1:159.5  forgot, and never able to obscure the light that shines beyond them.  Holiness has been restored to vision, and the blind can see.
W1:162.5 We honor you today. Yours is the right to perfect  holiness you now accept. With this acceptance is salvation brought to
W1:162.5  is salvation brought to everyone, for who could cherish sin when  holiness like this has blessed the world? Who could despair when

W1:164.4  peace you carry in your heart and have not lost. There is a sense of  holiness in you the thought of sin has never touched. All this today
W1:164.7  from misery. All that we see will but increase our joy because its  holiness reflects our own. We stand forgiven in the sight of Christ,
W1:167.12  For the wakened mind is one that knows its Source, its Self, its  holiness.
W1:170.14  Your glory, and in them we find our peace. Holy are we because Your  holiness has set us free. And we give thanks. Amen.
W1:173.3 [156] I walk with God in perfect  holiness. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:182.4  endure forever. Where this Child shall go is holy ground. It is His  holiness that lights up Heaven and that brings to earth the pure

W1:186.4  be certain only that He knows our strengths, our wisdom, and our  holiness. And if He deems us worthy, so we are. It is but arrogance
W1:186.6  for God assures you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and the  holiness to go beyond all images. You are not weak, as is the image
W1:187.9  you offer him beside them. Who could fear to look upon such lovely  holiness? The great illusion of the fear of God diminishes to

W1:190.5  And what was seen as fearful now becomes a source of innocence and  holiness.
W1:190.9  put aside the withering assaults with which you seek to hide your  holiness. Here will you understand there is no pain. Here does the

W1:191.12  he made. In error it began. But it will end in the reflection of his  holiness. And we will sleep no more and dream of death. Then join
W1:192.6  Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son to look again upon his  holiness. With anger gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's
W1:194.5  all his glory shines upon a world made free with him to share his  holiness.
W1:198.14 There is no condemnation in him. He is perfect in his  holiness. He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could give him gifts

W2:228.1 My Father knows my  holiness. Shall I deny His knowledge and believe in what His
W2:228.2  came. I have not left that Source to enter in a body and to die. My  holiness remains a part of me, as I am part of You. And my mistakes
W2:235.2 Father, Your  holiness is mine. Your Love created me and made my sinlessness
W2:238.1  I must be beloved of You indeed. And I must be steadfast in  holiness as well, that You would give Your Son to me in certainty
W2:240.2  free. Let us forgive him in Your Name, that we may understand his  holiness and feel the love for him that is Your own as well.
W2:252.1 My Self is holy beyond all the thoughts of  holiness of which I now conceive. Its shimmering and perfect purity
W2:256.1  And who would yet remain asleep in heavy clouds of doubt about the  holiness of him whom God created sinless? Here we can but dream. But
W2:264.1  There is no Source but This, and nothing is that does not share Its  holiness, that stands beyond Your one creation or without the Love
W2:283.1  unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I am He my Father loves. His  holiness remains the light of Heaven and the Love of God. Is not what
W2:285.1  by me. And I will ask for only joyous things the instant I accept my  holiness. For what would be the use of pain to me, what purpose would
W2:285.1  and loss avail me, if insanity departs from me today and I accept my  holiness instead?
W2:285.2 Father, my  holiness is Yours. Let me rejoice in it and through forgiveness be
W2:285.2  be restored to sanity. Your Son is still as You created him. My  holiness is part of me and also part of You. And what can alter
W2:285.2  My holiness is part of me and also part of You. And what can alter  Holiness Itself?
W2:288.2  know you have forgiven me if you behold your brother in the light of  holiness. He cannot be less holy than can I, and you cannot be holier
W2:291.1  and for the world as well. What loveliness we look upon today! What  holiness we see surrounding us! And it is given us to recognize it is
W2:291.1  we see surrounding us! And it is given us to recognize it is a  holiness in which we share; it is the holiness of God Himself.
W2:291.1  given us to recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the  holiness of God Himself.
W2:299.1 My  holiness is far beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet God

W2:299.2 Father, my  holiness is not of me. It is not mine to be destroyed by sin. It is
W2:299.2  healed, for they remain as You created them. And I can know my  holiness. For Holiness Itself created me, and I can know my Source
W2:299.2  for they remain as You created them. And I can know my holiness. For  Holiness Itself created me, and I can know my Source because it is

W2:304.2 You lead me from the darkness to the light, from sin to  holiness. Let me forgive and thus receive salvation for the world. It
W2:306.1  I made. Today I can go past all fear and be restored to love and  holiness and peace. Today I am redeemed and born anew into a world of

Tx:5.22  possible. As a result, there are choices which you must make. In the  holy state, the will is free in the sense that its creative power is

Tx:5.30  but we must respond to the same mind to do this. This mind is the  Holy Spirit, whose will is for God always. He teaches you how to keep
Tx:5.31  God, my message is for you to hear and give away as you answer the  Holy Spirit within you.
Tx:5.32 The way to learn to know your brother is by perceiving the  Holy Spirit in him. We have already said that the Holy Spirit is the

Tx:5.32  two ways of thinking would not be open to healing. He is part of the  Holy Trinity because His Mind is partly yours and also partly God's.
Tx:5.33 The  Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. Being thought, the idea gains as
Tx:5.33  idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the  Holy Spirit shares the property of other ideas, because it follows

Tx:5.35 The Voice of the  Holy Spirit is weak in you. That is why you must share it. It must be
Tx:5.35  by being shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the  Holy Spirit in yourself alone, your meditations will frighten you
Tx:5.36  and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the  Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy
Tx:5.36  the Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the  Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct opposition to the ego's notions,
Tx:5.36  because true and false perceptions are themselves opposed. The  Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the ego has made. He undoes
Tx:5.38 The  Holy Spirit is the Mediator between the interpretations of the ego
Tx:5.38  Understanding is light, and light leads to knowledge. The  Holy Spirit is in light because He is in you who are light, but you
Tx:5.38  but you yourselves do not know this. It is therefore the task of the  Holy Spirit to reinterpret you on behalf of God.
Tx:5.39  is your life, your eternity, and yourself. It is of this that the  Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the Holy Spirit sees. This
Tx:5.39  It is of this that the Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the  Holy Spirit sees. This vision invariably frightens the ego because it
Tx:5.40 The  Holy Spirit is as vigilant as the ego to the call of danger, opposing
Tx:5.40  His strength, just as the ego welcomes it with all its might. The  Holy Spirit counters this welcome by welcoming peace. Peace and
Tx:5.41 The ego is the symbol of separation, just as the  Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you perceive in others, you
Tx:5.41  strengthening in yourself. You let your mind misperceive, but the  Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The
Tx:5.41  Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The  Holy Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses only what your minds
Tx:5.41  already understand to teach you that you do not understand it. The  Holy Spirit can deal with an unwilling learner without going counter
Tx:5.41  than the ego, even though the ego does not recognize it. The  Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, because it is His own dwelling
Tx:5.42  only in eternity. The ego made the world as it perceives it, but the  Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego made, sees it only as
Tx:5.42  made, sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. The  Holy Spirit must perceive time and reinterpret it into the timeless.
Tx:5.43 The  Holy Spirit must work through opposites, because He must work with

Tx:5.45  They are beyond destruction and beyond guilt. They came from the  Holy Spirit within you, and we know what God creates is eternal. What
Tx:5.46  can safely fail to acknowledge anything that is true. However, the  Holy Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you
Tx:5.47  of the Kingdom. Nothing good is lost because it comes from the  Holy Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not good was
Tx:5.53  attraction of the parts of the Sonship, which hear the call of the  Holy Spirit to be as One.
Tx:5.54  and the mind which was in me rejoices as you choose to hear it. The  Holy Spirit atones in all of us by undoing and thus lifts the burden
Tx:5.56  at the same level. It is impossible to share opposing thoughts. The  Holy Spirit does not let you forsake your brothers. Therefore, you
Tx:5.57  of God lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the  Holy Spirit is lacking.
Tx:5.58 How can you who are so  holy suffer? All your past except its beauty is gone, and nothing is
Tx:5.59  ego's use of guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the  Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful
Tx:5.59  can be egotistic. The ego's logic is as impeccable as that of the  Holy Spirit, because your mind has all the means at its disposal to
Tx:5.59  appropriate here because, once what you have made is undone by the  Holy Spirit, the blessed residue is restored and therefore continues
Tx:5.67 The  Holy Spirit, like the ego, is a decision. Together they constitute
Tx:5.67  the alternatives which the mind can accept and obey. The ego and the  Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. God created one, and so
Tx:5.73  was in me is in you, for God creates with perfect fairness. Let the  Holy Spirit remind you always of His fairness, and let me teach you
Tx:5.74 The ego speaks in judgment and the  Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, much as the Supreme Court has the
Tx:5.75  wicked shall perish.” There are many others, but if you will let the  Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His own light, they will suffice.
Tx:5.76  the fact that vengeance cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the  Holy Spirit, who will undo it in you because it does not belong in
Tx:5.77  beyond itself. Actually, all the quotation means is that the  Holy Spirit in later generations retains the power to interpret
Tx:5.82  device which will be abolished when it is no longer useful. The  Holy Spirit, Who speaks for God in time, also knows that time is
Tx:5.83  set) on Him,” a statement which means that God's peace is set in the  Holy Spirit because it is fixed on God. It is also fixed in you. You,
Tx:5.85  is the pull of God, on whom your mind is fixed because of the  Holy Spirit's irrevocable set. “Irrevocable” means “cannot be called
Tx:5.85  “cannot be called back or redirected.” The irrevocable nature of the  Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The Holy
Tx:5.85  of the Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The  Holy Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought cannot occur
Tx:5.87 Second, although Freud misinterpreted what the  Holy Spirit told him, or better, reminded him of, he was too honest
Tx:5.93  for everything you have made which is not in accord with His  holy Will. I have made His plan perfectly explicit to you and have
Tx:5.95  the following as sincerely as you can, remembering that the  Holy Spirit will respond fully to your slightest invitation:
Tx:5.96  because I want to be at peace. I do not feel guilty, because the  Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I
Tx:6.13  as learners, even though we need not have equal experiences. The  Holy Spirit is glad when you can learn enough from mine to be
Tx:6.14  on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling yourselves to hear the  Holy Spirit in others, you can learn from their experiences and gain
Tx:6.14  from them without experiencing them yourselves. That is because the  Holy Spirit is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to
Tx:6.14  nor was I. You are not asked to repeat my experiences, because the  Holy Spirit, Whom we share, makes this unnecessary. To use my
Tx:6.15  that no perception which is out of accord with the judgment of the  Holy Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show this was true in a
Tx:6.16 Remember that the  Holy Spirit is the communication link between God the Father and His
Tx:6.28  its abilities are directed by the mind which has a better Voice. The  Holy Spirit as well as the ego utilizes projection, but since their
Tx:6.29 The  Holy Spirit begins by perceiving you as perfect. Knowing this
Tx:6.29  for both because it establishes inclusion. Perceiving equality, the  Holy Spirit perceives equal needs. This invites Atonement
Tx:6.31 The perfect equality of the  Holy Spirit's perception is the counterpart of the perfect equality
Tx:6.31  knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but the  Holy Spirit remains the bridge between perception and knowledge. By
Tx:6.31  that this meeting is impossible, yet it is your perception which the  Holy Spirit guides. You might remember that the human eye perceives
Tx:6.32  other, because they were created neither partially nor in part. The  Holy Spirit enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You can no
Tx:6.32  alone. Prayer is the restatement of inclusion, directed by the  Holy Spirit under the laws of God. God created you to create. You
Tx:6.33  Although perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, and the  Holy Spirit can therefore use it well. He can inspire perception and
Tx:6.34 The  Holy Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. Coming from God, He
Tx:6.34  for good, but He does not believe in what is not true. Since the  Holy Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also be able to believe
Tx:6.34  your minds must also be able to believe only what is true. The  Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for God. He
Tx:6.35  because it can so easily make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the  Holy Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what
Tx:6.36  all of your perceptions into the one parallel line which the  Holy Spirit sees. This line is the direct line of communication with
Tx:6.36  perception, because it means that all perception is guided by the  Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy Spirit can
Tx:6.36  is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the  Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy Spirit is
Tx:6.36  on God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the  Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is true in your
Tx:6.37  difference between the ego's use of projection and projection as the  Holy Spirit uses it is very simple. The ego projects to exclude and
Tx:6.37  simple. The ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The  Holy Spirit projects by recognizing Himself in every mind and thus
Tx:6.37  them as one. Nothing conflicts in this perception, because what the  Holy Spirit perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees Himself,
Tx:6.38  mind forever, but it must shine outward to make you aware of it. The  Holy Spirit was given you with perfect impartiality, and only by
Tx:6.38  impartially can you perceive Him at all. The ego is legion, but the  Holy Spirit is One. No darkness abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but
Tx:6.40 The  Holy Spirit still holds knowledge safe through His impartial
Tx:6.41  you are to be conflict-free yourselves, you must learn only from the  Holy Spirit and teach only by Him. You are only love, but when you
Tx:6.42 The only real safety lies in projecting only the  Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your own
Tx:6.45 Remember that the  Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The ego always speaks
Tx:6.45  it at any moment. If it meant you well, it would be glad, as the  Holy Spirit will be glad when He has brought you home and you no
Tx:6.47  you fully understand one basic fact that the ego does not know. The  Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. Everyone has
Tx:6.47  another and in one way or another and has been answered. Since the  Holy Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which means that
Tx:6.48 The ego cannot hear the  Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the same mind that made
Tx:6.50 Hear then the one answer of the  Holy Spirit to all the questions which the ego raises. You are a
Tx:6.55 That is why the  Holy Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which
Tx:6.55  Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the  Holy Spirit demonstrates does not exist. Fidelity to premises is a
Tx:6.57 Like any good teacher, the  Holy Spirit does know more than you do now, but He teaches only to
Tx:6.60 The  Holy Spirit never itemizes errors because He does not frighten
Tx:6.60  they are frightened, because they do not know the difference. The  Holy Spirit makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them
Tx:6.60  you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and the  Holy Spirit, shining with the light from God Himself, speaks only for
Tx:6.62  It is clearly a separation device and therefore does not exist. The  Holy Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and translates it
Tx:6.63 We have said that the  Holy Spirit is the motivation for miracles. This is because He always
Tx:6.63  By the laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the  Holy Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in miracles. This is
Tx:6.65 The  Holy Spirit, who leads to God, translates communication into being,
Tx:6.65  The insanity of this perception makes it a fearful one indeed. The  Holy Spirit sees the body only as a means of communication and
Tx:6.66  allegiance but always for what each one can get separately. The  Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He never
Tx:6.72  then, is the undoing of the getting concept. Accordingly, the  Holy Spirit's first lesson was “to have, give all to all.” We said
Tx:6.74  of mind in the thinker. Meanwhile, the increasing clarity of the  Holy Spirit's Voice makes it impossible for the learner not to
Tx:6.76  you that it is up to you to decide which voice is true, but the  Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God, and your
Tx:6.76  cannot change it. As you begin to realize the quiet power of the  Holy Spirit's Voice and its perfect consistency, it must dawn on your
Tx:6.76  before that there was help in reminding yourselves to allow the  Holy Spirit to decide for God for you.
Tx:6.77  believe that it is up to you to decide what God's creations are. The  Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is. Therefore, His
Tx:6.81  accepted that is a demonstration of your growing awareness that the  Holy Spirit will lead you on.
Tx:6.82  salvation is critical to the whole Sonship. We said before that the  Holy Spirit is evaluative and must be. Yet His evaluation does not
Tx:6.83 What you must remember, however, is that what the  Holy Spirit rejects, the ego accepts. This is because they are in
Tx:6.83  crucial issue vary, and that is why it promotes different moods. The  Holy Spirit never varies on this point, and so the one mood He
Tx:6.84 The  Holy Spirit does not teach your mind to be critical of other minds,
Tx:6.84  established what you can project with perfect safety. Therefore, the  Holy Spirit's third lesson is:
Tx:6.88  that you can choose either one. By teaching what to choose, the  Holy Spirit will ultimately be able to teach you that you need not
Tx:6.88  direct it towards creation within the Kingdom. Choosing through the  Holy Spirit will lead you to the Kingdom. You create by what you are,
Tx:6.89  step will still be taken for you by God, but by the third step the  Holy Spirit has prepared you for God. He is getting you ready for the
Tx:6.95  second step, but I also told you that the third one follows it. The  Holy Spirit will enable you to go on if you follow Him. Your
Tx:7.6  Him is to share the perfect love He shares with you. To this the  Holy Spirit leads you that your joy may be complete, because the
Tx:7.6  and nothing that is true needs to be explained. However, the  Holy Spirit has the task of translating the useless into the useful,
Tx:7.7  a time concept. He is first in the sense that He is the first in the  Holy Trinity itself. He is the Prime Creator, because He created His
Tx:7.10  is to correct perception in your brother and yourself by sharing the  Holy Spirit with him. This places you both within the Kingdom and
Tx:7.15  is to change the form so that the original meaning is retained. The  Holy Spirit is the translator of the laws of God to those who do not
Tx:7.16 The  Holy Spirit's purpose in translating is naturally exactly the
Tx:7.17  it cannot be consistent unless it is remembered. That is why the  Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He
Tx:7.22  defeat its purpose. Therefore, it does not really learn at all. The  Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has made to teach the
Tx:7.22  applied to the learning. You could not have a better example of the  Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The Holy Spirit has
Tx:7.22  example of the Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The  Holy Spirit has taken very diversified areas of your learning and has
Tx:7.23 You made the effort to learn, and the  Holy Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He adapts the ego's
Tx:7.24  to be no connection, because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the  Holy Spirit teaches one lesson and applies it to all individuals in
Tx:7.30  to question reality is to question meaninglessly. That is why the  Holy Spirit never questions. His sole function is to undo the
Tx:7.34 The  Holy Spirit must work through you to teach you He is in you. This is
Tx:7.34  you are in God, because you are part of Him. The miracles which the  Holy Spirit inspires can have no order of difficulty, because every
Tx:7.34  is God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the  Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the
Tx:7.35 All abilities, then, should be given over to the  Holy Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He can use them only
Tx:7.35  wholeness you learn to remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the  Holy Spirit still knows that your forgetting must be translated into
Tx:7.36 The ego's goal is as unified as the  Holy Spirit's, and it is because of this that their goals can never
Tx:7.36  or to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and separate. The  Holy Spirit always seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are
Tx:7.36  seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are healed, because the  Holy Spirit sees no order of healing. Healing is the way to undo the
Tx:7.38  not recognizing its existence in your brothers. This strengthens the  Holy Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge
Tx:7.39  matter are so apparent that they need no elaboration here, but the  Holy Spirit's decision to use the body only for communication has
Tx:7.41  can develop and must develop if he is to be healed. Healing is the  Holy Spirit's form of communication and the only one He knows. He
Tx:7.44 The  Holy Spirit does not work by chance, and healing that is of Him
Tx:7.48  he could not have changed his mind. That is how you perceive the  Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never
Tx:7.48  That is how you perceive the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the  Holy Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He himself must think
Tx:7.51  is to share nothing. [Would I try to share an illusion with the most  holy children of a most holy Father?] Yet I do want to share my mind
Tx:7.51  I try to share an illusion with the most holy children of a most  holy Father?] Yet I do want to share my mind with you, because we are
Tx:7.54  reciprocal. They make or create, depending on whether the ego or the  Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will return to the mind
Tx:7.60 The  Holy Spirit undoes illusions without attacking them merely because He
Tx:7.60  by perceiving conflict as meaningless. We said before that the  Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is
Tx:7.60  perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is meaningless. The  Holy Spirit does not want you to understand conflict; He wants you to
Tx:7.61 If you will keep in mind what the  Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God
Tx:7.61  which are not true and would never have been called upon by the  Holy Spirit if you had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that,
Tx:7.64  committed to untruth, perceiving in total contradiction to the  Holy Spirit and to the knowledge of God.
Tx:7.65 You can be perceived with meaning only by the  Holy Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of God. Any belief
Tx:7.68 In this depressing state, the  Holy Spirit reminds you gently that you are sad because you are not
Tx:7.68  is unchangeable, no real conflict of will is possible. This is the  Holy Spirit's perfectly consistent teaching.
Tx:7.71  because it will be used for attack, but in the service of the  Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of
Tx:7.82  as a way of getting rid of something it does not want. To the  Holy Spirit, it is the fundamental law of sharing by which you give
Tx:7.83 Projection, to the  Holy Spirit, is the law of extension. To the ego, it is the law of
Tx:7.88  the errors as yours, do not keep them. Give them over quickly to the  Holy Spirit to be undone completely so that all their effects will
Tx:7.89 The  Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth
Tx:7.91  is of the Soul, because that is how God created it. The  Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the ego and the
Tx:7.95  unknown to them. Your creations are protected for you, because the  Holy Spirit, Who is in your mind, knows of them and can bring them
Tx:7.100  His Will as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. The  Holy Spirit will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of
Tx:7.100  this goal if he recognized it. The problem is not whether what the  Holy Spirit says is true, but whether you want to listen to what He
Tx:7.101  know what is joyful and are in fact very apt to confuse the two. The  Holy Spirit's main function is to teach you to tell them apart.
Tx:7.101  This confusion is the cause of the whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the  Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up the ego. But you will be
Tx:7.103 The  Holy Spirit always sides with you and with your strength. As long as
Tx:7.103  then, can this decision mean except that you want to be fearful? The  Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the ego always does. When
Tx:7.104  of this decision is confusion, this is hardly surprising.] The  Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God Himself trusts
Tx:7.107 The  Holy Spirit will always guide you truly, because your joy is His.
Tx:7.110  has become the perfect teacher, because he has learned it of the  Holy Spirit, Who wants to teach him everything He knows. When a mind
Tx:8.8  confused and totally confusing. Even if you could disregard the  Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you could learn
Tx:8.10  Will with you. His Voice teaches only His Will, but that is not the  Holy Spirit's lesson because that is what you are. The lesson is that
Tx:8.11  freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The  Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of God,
Tx:8.11  a Son of God, knowing that the will of the Son is the Father's. The  Holy Spirit leads you steadily along the path of freedom, teaching
Tx:8.12 We said before that the  Holy Spirit teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is
Tx:8.13 The  Holy Spirit's teaching takes only one direction and has only one
Tx:8.15 To what else except all power and glory can the  Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is
Tx:8.17  be forced upon you, being an experience of total willingness. The  Holy Spirit knows how to teach this, but you do not. That is why you
Tx:8.18  Fatherhood must be extended outward. You who belong in God have the  holy function of extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon
Tx:8.18  of extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the  Holy Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means
Tx:8.19 When you meet anyone, remember it is a  holy encounter. As you see him, you will see yourself. As you treat
Tx:8.20  find them in yourself, because it does not know where to look. The  Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only at yourself, you cannot
Tx:8.22  someone else, you had thought that he was someone else. And every  holy encounter in which you enter fully will teach you this is not so.
Tx:8.23  from them. The ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The  Holy Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you.
Tx:8.35 The  Holy Trinity is holy, because it is one. If you exclude yourself from
Tx:8.35 The Holy Trinity is  holy, because it is one. If you exclude yourself from this union, you
Tx:8.35  one. If you exclude yourself from this union, you are perceiving the  Holy Trinity as separated. You must be included in It, because It is
Tx:8.38  As we unite, we unite with Him. Glory be to the union of God and His  holy Sons! All glory lies in them because they are united. The
Tx:8.41 The ego's way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The  Holy Spirit has one direction for all minds, and the one He taught me
Tx:8.42  The world can add nothing to the power and the glory of God and His  holy Sons, but it can blind the Sons to the Father if they behold it.
Tx:8.45  your creations as He wants His. Your creations are your gift to the  Holy Trinity, created in gratitude for your creation. They do not
Tx:8.50 Our creations are as  holy as we are, and we are the Sons of God Himself and therefore as
Tx:8.50  holy as we are, and we are the Sons of God Himself and therefore as  holy as He is. Through our creations, we extend our love and thus
Tx:8.50  our creations, we extend our love and thus increase the joy of the  Holy Trinity. You do not understand this for a very simple reason.
Tx:8.52  beloved of God are wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and free the  holy will of all those who are as blessed as you are.
Tx:8.54 Remember that the  Holy Spirit interprets the body only as a means of communication.
Tx:8.54  Being the communication link between God and His separated Sons, the  Holy Spirit interprets everything you have made in the light of what
Tx:8.54  in the light of what He is. The ego separates through the body. The  Holy Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not perceive your
Tx:8.54  through it to others. You do not perceive your brothers as the  Holy Spirit does, because you do not interpret their bodies and yours
Tx:8.55  is. This is God's way of making unlimited what you have limited. The  Holy Spirit does not see the body as you do, because He knows the
Tx:8.56  ends separation. Attack promotes it. The body is beautiful or ugly,  holy or savage, helpful or harmful, according to the use to which it
Tx:8.56  put yours. If the body becomes for you a means which you give to the  Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you will not
Tx:8.56  already done so by misusing it. Interpret anything apart from the  Holy Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred
Tx:8.57  in littleness and thus escape from yours. As part of you, he is  holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with part of God Himself
Tx:8.58  power and glory for you, with which you can perfectly accomplish His  holy will for you when you so will it yourself. He has not withdrawn
Tx:8.59  it can be put. To use the body unnaturally is to lose sight of the  Holy Spirit's purpose and thus to confuse the goal of His curriculum.
Tx:8.60  world. In fact, it is ultimately why the world is depressing. The  Holy Spirit's curriculum is never depressing, because it is a
Tx:8.61  to be ruled by chaos. Guided by the ego, it is. Guided by the  Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a means by which the part of
Tx:8.61  return to the Soul. The ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the  Holy Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In
Tx:8.74  call upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, nor does the  Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the Holy
Tx:8.74  the Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the  Holy Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The
Tx:8.76  endless prescriptions for avoiding catastrophic outcomes. The  Holy Spirit, perfectly aware of the same data, does not bother to
Tx:8.78  except truth. When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. The  Holy Spirit's Voice is as loud as your willingness to listen. It
Tx:8.78  listen. It cannot be louder without violating your will, which the  Holy Spirit seeks to free but never to command.
Tx:8.79 The  Holy Spirit teaches you to use your body only to reach your brothers,
Tx:8.79  heal you. Everything used in accordance with its function as the  Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. Everything used otherwise is. Do
Tx:8.79  is the natural state of anything whose interpretation is left to the  Holy Spirit, Who perceives no attack on anything. Health is the
Tx:8.80 We once said that the  Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to everything, because He
Tx:8.80  its questions. When the ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the  Holy Spirit to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the
Tx:8.80  that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the  Holy Spirit teach you the right perception of the body, for
Tx:8.82  what joining means if you are sleeping under its guidance. Yet the  Holy Spirit, too, has use for sleep and can use dreams on behalf of
Tx:8.83  did you place it? Whenever you wake dispiritedly, it was not of the  Holy Spirit. Only when you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep
Tx:8.83  when you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep according to the  Holy Spirit's purpose. You can indeed be “drugged by sleep,” but this
Tx:8.84  to love, since all healing involves replacing fear with love. The  Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of error, for if He
Tx:8.89 The unification of purpose, then, is the  Holy Spirit's only way of healing. This is because it is the only
Tx:8.93  it remains available but cannot help you. When we said that the  Holy Spirit's function is to sort out the true from the false in your
Tx:8.94  process can only be what you think you lose. Yet it is only what the  Holy Spirit sees that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many
Tx:8.94  that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many times that the  Holy Spirit will never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if
Tx:8.94  anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of yourselves, the  Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not God's Will because it is
Tx:8.95  this is precisely what you will ask for. You may insist that the  Holy Spirit does not answer you, but it might be wiser to consider
Tx:8.98  but it is still true that they do not want them. Can you ask the  Holy Spirit for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive
Tx:8.98  for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive them? [The  Holy Spirit is totally incapable of giving you anything that does not
Tx:8.100 When you ask the  Holy Spirit for what would hurt you, He cannot answer, because
Tx:8.100  not a request. It is merely a denial in the form of a request. The  Holy Spirit is not concerned with form at all, being aware only of
Tx:8.100  form at all, being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the  Holy Spirit for anything because there is complete communication
Tx:8.100  failure between them. Yet you can ask for everything of the  Holy Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would
Tx:8.100  Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would the  Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? And could He fail to recognize it
Tx:8.108 Let us suppose, then, that what you request of the  Holy Spirit is what you really want, but you are still afraid of it.
Tx:8.109  be true if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the  Holy Spirit for anything will ensure a response. Yet it is equally
Tx:8.109  a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response given by the  Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. It is
Tx:8.110  in me whose faith in you cannot be shaken. Can you ask of the  Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his words are true
Tx:8.111  about him determines the message you receive. Remember that the  Holy Spirit is in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What
Tx:8.111  is in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What can so  holy a brother tell you except truth? But are you listening to it?
Tx:8.111  his words true and making you able to hear them. His words are the  Holy Spirit's answer to you. Is your faith in him strong enough to
Tx:8.112 Salvation is of your brother. The  Holy Spirit extends from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot
Tx:8.112  in you unless you extend it. You will not trust the guidance of the  Holy Spirit or believe that it is for you unless you hear it in
Tx:8.113  me. Knowing what you are, I cannot doubt you. I hear only the  Holy Spirit in you, who speaks to me through you. If you would hear
Tx:8.118 You can ask of the  Holy Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can give to Him
Tx:9.1  to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance the  Holy Spirit would have you maintain. Egos are critical in terms of
Tx:9.1  understand this kind of sense because it is sensible to them. To the  Holy Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and
Tx:9.3  of your brother's ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the  Holy Spirit does not perceive his errors. This must be true if there
Tx:9.3  be true if there is no communication at all between the ego and the  Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not
Tx:9.3  between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the  Holy Spirit does not attempt to understand anything that arises from
Tx:9.4 When you react at all to errors, you are not listening to the  Holy Spirit. He has merely disregarded them, and if you attend to
Tx:9.5  them, you are accepting yours. If you want to give yours over to the  Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless this becomes the one
Tx:9.7  and keep it, see only truth beside you, for you walk together. The  Holy Spirit in you forgives all things in you and in your brother.
Tx:9.7  the ego. Correction is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The  Holy Spirit forgives everything, because God created everything.
Tx:9.8  learn to want this, and for this all learning was made. This is the  Holy Spirit's good use of an ability which you do not need, but which
Tx:9.11  which is given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The  Holy Spirit merely reminds you of what is your natural ability. By
Tx:9.11  in its judgment. All their helpfulness lies in the judgment of the  Holy Spirit.
Tx:9.14 Forgiveness through the  Holy Spirit lies simply in looking beyond error from the beginning
Tx:9.14  order to be forgiven. What has no effect does not exist, and to the  Holy Spirit, the effects of error are totally non-existent. By
Tx:9.15 Miracles are merely the sign of your willingness to follow the  Holy Spirit's plan of salvation in recognition of the fact that you
Tx:9.23  as unhelpful as the older ones, because form does not matter to the  Holy Spirit and therefore does not matter at all. According to the
Tx:9.23  is equated with the mind, the mind's corrective power through the  Holy Spirit is denied.
Tx:9.28  not of him. Yet, being for him, it must also be for his patient. The  Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He makes healing perfectly clear
Tx:9.29 As you awaken other minds to the  Holy Spirit through Him and not yourself, you will understand that
Tx:9.31 How can you become increasingly aware of the  Holy Spirit in you except by His effects? You cannot see Him with
Tx:9.32 It seems to you that the  Holy Spirit does not produce joy consistently in you only because you
Tx:9.35  are not yet awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply the  Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you
Tx:9.40 It is perfectly obvious that if the  Holy Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, He looks with love
Tx:9.40  there. Its evaluation of you, however, is the exact opposite of the  Holy Spirit's, because the ego does not love you. It is unaware of
Tx:9.41  these evaluations are, because you do not understand how lofty the  Holy Spirit's perception of you really is. He is not deceived by
Tx:9.41  ego is deceived by everything you do, even when you respond to the  Holy Spirit, because at such times its confusion increases. The ego
Tx:9.44  from beyond it, because, within it, its foundation does stand. The  Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's thought system
Tx:9.44  not true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it means anything. The  Holy Spirit judges every belief you hold in terms of where it comes
Tx:9.56  What good can come of it? And if no good can come of it, the  Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of
Tx:9.58  it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely is. Ask the  Holy Spirit what it is and He will tell you, but do not be afraid of
Tx:9.60  if you are God's only creation, and He created you eternal? Your  holy will establishes everything that happens to you. Every response
Tx:9.61  for your self so you could be like Him. That is why your will is  holy. Can anything exceed the love of God? Can anything, then, exceed
Tx:9.66  with neither? You do not remember being awake. When you hear the  Holy Spirit, you merely feel better because loving seems possible to
Tx:9.69  this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the  Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge
Tx:9.91  is the recognition that his brother can do it. It is a call to the  Holy Spirit in his mind, a call to Him which is strengthened by this
Tx:10.5  upon it but will be blessed by Him, for you will be restoring the  holy dwelling place of His Son, where He wills His Son to be and
Tx:10.12  is merely because it is yours. You do not know what it is, but the  Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will
Tx:10.12  be too often repeated that you do not know it. Whenever what the  Holy Spirit tells you appears to be coercive, it is only because you
Tx:10.15 You are asked to trust the  Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God,
Tx:10.19  whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of the  Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far
Tx:10.20 The  Holy Spirit cannot speak to an unwelcoming host because He will not
Tx:10.22  is not real freedom, for it still depends on how you see it. The  Holy Spirit is there, although He cannot help you without your
Tx:10.29  that you may enter the temple and find it waiting for you. But be  holy in the Presence of God, or you will not know that you are there.
Tx:10.50  can be accomplished, and God's purpose can not. According to the  Holy Spirit's teaching, only God's purpose is accomplishment, and it
Tx:10.53 The ego analyzes; the  Holy Spirit accepts. The appreciation of wholeness comes only through
Tx:10.54  of perception are, and would have to be, the exact opposite of the  Holy Spirit's. The ego focuses on error and overlooks truth. It makes
Tx:10.73  because it is His Will to be known. The real world is all that the  Holy Spirit has saved for you out of what you have made, and to
Tx:10.75  what you perceive, for its meaning is lost to you. Yet the  Holy Spirit has saved its meaning for you, and if you will let Him
Tx:10.80  than to be told very clearly that if you ask you will receive. The  Holy Spirit will answer every specific problem as long as you believe
Tx:10.81  that asking is taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. The  Holy Spirit will give you only what is yours and will take nothing in
Tx:10.81  and you share it with God. This is its reality. Would the  Holy Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting
Tx:10.82  the question. You have believed that to ask for guidance of the  Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do
Tx:10.87  and are condemning God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the  Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against himself and
Tx:10.90  only in yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the  Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you
Tx:11.3  of all motivation that makes any sense. And because it is the  Holy Spirit's judgment, it requires no effort at all on your part.
Tx:11.6  him your help, and you will not perceive God's answer to you. The  Holy Spirit does not need your help in interpreting motivation, but
Tx:11.9 By applying the  Holy Spirit's interpretation of the reactions of others more and more
Tx:11.9  the recognition is necessary to demonstrate the need for escape. The  Holy Spirit must still translate it into truth. If you were left with
Tx:11.9  as a crucial step in the undoing of the ego. Consider how well the  Holy Spirit's interpretation of the motives of others will serve you
Tx:11.13  of its reality than by answering the appeal for it by giving it? The  Holy Spirit's interpretation of fear does dispel it, for the

Tx:11.39  to find is hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would keep? The  Holy Spirit offers you another promise, and one that will lead to
Tx:11.40  within yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the  Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He will guide you to your home
Tx:11.42  awaits only the recognition that you have been redeemed. The  Holy Spirit guides you into life eternal, but you must relinquish
Tx:11.46 The  Holy Spirit's love is your strength, for yours is divided and

Tx:11.54 The  Holy Spirit is your strength because He perceives nothing but your

Tx:11.58  to you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the  Holy Spirit will lead everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits
Tx:11.59  which He knows because He knows His Father's love for Him. When the  Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father,
Tx:11.59  perception fuses into knowledge because perception has become so  holy that its transfer to holiness is merely its natural extension.
Tx:11.59  elements in all situations, the transfer of your training under the  Holy Spirit's guidance increases and becomes generalized. Gradually
Tx:11.60  is the reinstatement of knowledge. At the altar of God, the  holy perception of God's Son becomes so enlightened that light

Tx:11.61  will radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to everyone the  Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child of God His
Tx:11.63 The  Holy Spirit is invisible, but you can see the results of His
Tx:11.63  and mass, of prediction and control is transcended, for what the  Holy Spirit enables you to do is clearly beyond all of them.
Tx:11.64 You cannot see the  Holy Spirit, but you can see His manifestations. And unless you do,
Tx:11.64  real to you as its presence becomes manifest through you. Do the  Holy Spirit's work, for you share in His function. As your function
Tx:11.64  is healing. God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the  Holy Spirit shares His with you on earth.
Tx:11.65  is the destruction of peace, a goal in direct opposition to the  Holy Spirit's purpose. You see what you expect, and you expect what
Tx:11.66 I am the manifestation of the  Holy Spirit, and when you see me, it will be because you have invited
Tx:11.72  you will find it, for by making it manifest, you will see it. Its  holy witnesses will surround you because you called upon them and

Tx:11.79  true became invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for the  Holy Spirit sees it with perfect clarity. It is invisible to you
Tx:11.79  is up to you to decide what reality is. What can be seen is what the  Holy Spirit sees. The definition of reality is God's, not yours. He
Tx:11.82 Everything you made has never been and is invisible because the  Holy Spirit does not see it. Yet what He does see is yours to behold,
Tx:11.82  and truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The  Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees nothing else in you. What is
Tx:11.89 Long ago we said that the  Holy Spirit shares the goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim
Tx:11.89  themselves unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they know. The  Holy Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His
Tx:11.92  he sees will never touch him, for although he believes in it, the  Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end
Tx:11.92  he believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The  Holy Spirit stands at the end of time, where you must be because He
Tx:11.95 As you perceive the  holy companions who travel with you, you will realize that there is
Tx:11.99  guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The  Holy Spirit dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it
Tx:12.10  full extent. You may also think that it would be easy enough for the  Holy Spirit to show it to you and dispel it, without the need for you
Tx:12.13  it, and the whole world you think you control would vanish. The  Holy Spirit, then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would
Tx:12.17  he is not crucified. Here is both his pain and his healing, for the  Holy Spirit's vision is merciful, and His remedy is quick. Do not
Tx:12.19  your love, or you will be hiding a dark place in your mind where the  Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His
Tx:12.29 Would you recognize a  holy encounter if you are merely perceiving it as a meeting with your
Tx:12.29  no one, and the sharing of salvation, which makes the encounter  holy, is excluded from your sight. The Holy Spirit teaches that you
Tx:12.29  which makes the encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The  Holy Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter
Tx:12.29  Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter is  holy because you are. The ego teaches that you always encounter your
Tx:12.29  you always encounter your past, and because your dreams were not  holy, the future cannot be, and the present is without meaning. It is
Tx:12.29  be, and the present is without meaning. It is evident that the  Holy Spirit's perception of time is the exact opposite of the ego's.
Tx:12.30 The  Holy Spirit interprets time's purpose as rendering the need for it
Tx:12.30  For only now is here, and it presents the opportunities for the  holy encounters in which salvation can be found.
Tx:12.31  time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for like the  Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its own. The
Tx:12.31  can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in time, while the  Holy Spirit would release you from it. It is His interpretation of
Tx:12.42  And He sees for you as your witness to the real world. He is the  Holy Spirit's manifestation, looking always on the real world and
Tx:12.44 The  Holy Spirit is the light in which Christ stands revealed. And all who
Tx:12.44  they looked upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as the  Holy Spirit sees them. And with this vision of the truth in them came
Tx:12.52  gladness and thanksgiving for the light to the Creator of light. The  holy light that shines forth from God's Son is the witness that his
Tx:12.54  ask for love are grateful for it, and in their joy, they shine with  holy thanks. And this they offer you, who gave them joy. They are
Tx:12.55  given it. And here will everything remind you of your Father and His  Holy Son. Light is unlimited and spreads across this world in quiet
Tx:12.67  happy dreams of love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the  Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams, where all perception is.

Tx:12.68  are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a world? Without the  Holy Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet because of Him, the answer
Tx:12.70 Only the  Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He will give you all things that
Tx:12.71  His goal. God's Son is not a traveler through outer worlds. However  holy his perception may become, no world outside himself holds his
Tx:12.73 The  Holy Spirit leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go? What
Tx:12.75  restore to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The  Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is
Tx:12.76  The sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind of God's most  holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in time is needed, for joy
Tx:13.1 All therapy is release from the past. That is why the  Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not
Tx:13.2  at its loftiest is never complete. Even the perception of the  Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in
Tx:13.2  of Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no perception, however  holy, will last forever.
Tx:13.4 Apart from the Father and the Son, the  Holy Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, being in
Tx:13.6  the One Reality of God. The only miracle that ever was is God's most  holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his Father. Christ's
Tx:13.7  and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God through the  Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit knows your part in
Tx:13.7  the Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The  Holy Spirit knows your part in the redemption and who are seeking you
Tx:13.8  free yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me under the  holy banner of His teaching, and as we grow in strength, the power of
Tx:13.8  over, and we will all unite in the eternity of God the Father. The  holy light you saw outside yourself in every miracle you offered to
Tx:13.14  of everything you cherish, for it is the means by which the  Holy Spirit can separate the false and the true, which you have
Tx:13.16  of God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the  Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for
Tx:13.19 Within you is the  holy sign of perfect faith your Father has in you. He does not value
Tx:13.21  for this strange purpose! And you forgot that real relationships are  holy and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the Holy
Tx:13.21  are holy and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the  Holy Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure. [If you displace
Tx:13.21  which makes them pure. [If you displace your guilt upon them, the  Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting for your own ends
Tx:13.25  learn that guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The  Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were real,
Tx:13.26 The  Holy Spirit does not keep illusions in your mind to frighten you and
Tx:13.26  is gone. Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The  Holy Spirit does what God would have Him do and has always done so.
Tx:13.28  cloud of guilt that dims your vision, and look past darkness to the  holy place where you will see the light. The altar to your Father is
Tx:13.29  not in the Mind of God where you are. And this is reason, which the  Holy Spirit would restore to you. He would remove only illusions. All
Tx:13.32  guilt forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of Your most  holy Son, whom You have created guiltless forever.
Tx:13.38  of sharing while you still remember the results of not sharing. The  Holy Spirit points quietly to the contrast, knowing that you will
Tx:13.39  minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the  Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and
Tx:13.39  accomplished from accomplishment. Whatever your reactions to the  Holy Spirit's Voice may be, whatever voice you choose to listen to,
Tx:13.39  He is invariable as the peace in which you dwell and of which the  Holy Spirit reminds you.
Tx:13.40  you realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not the  Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The
Tx:13.41  They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The  Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the
Tx:13.42  flows to you from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The  Holy Spirit will teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to
Tx:13.43 God willed you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The  Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven
Tx:13.43  to save. It will not be possible to exempt yourself from what the  Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His
Tx:13.45 The  Holy Spirit cannot fail to undo for you everything you have learned
Tx:13.45  substitute for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto peace. The  Holy Spirit has a very different kind of reconciliation in His Mind
Tx:13.46  Him you cannot wander, and there is no possibility that the plan the  Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone will not
Tx:13.47  you have the means for learning it and seeing it quite clearly. The  Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the ego, except
Tx:13.47  us now turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the  Holy Spirit teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth
Tx:13.50  touched, and your dream is sacred to you. That is why God placed the  Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream.
Tx:13.52 Any direction which will lead you where the  Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He
Tx:13.53 The  Holy Spirit, therefore, must begin His teaching by showing you what
Tx:13.54 The  Holy Spirit needs a happy learner in whom His mission can be happily
Tx:13.54  must first recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The  Holy Spirit cannot teach without this contrast, for you believe that
Tx:13.56 The  Holy Spirit, seeing where you are but knowing you are elsewhere,
Tx:13.57  they are kings with golden crowns because of them. All this the  Holy Spirit sees and teaches simply that all this is not true. To
Tx:13.57  and delude themselves into believing that it is not nothing, the  Holy Spirit says, with steadfast quietness:
Tx:13.58  you. Offer your faith to Me, and I will place it gently in the  holy place where it belongs. You will find no deception there but
Tx:13.59 Like you, the  Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He
Tx:13.61  learner, you must give everything that you have learned over to the  Holy Spirit to be unlearned for you. And then begin to learn the
Tx:13.62  the conditions of knowledge in the Kingdom. All this lies in the  Holy Spirit's plan to free you from the past and open up the way to
Tx:13.62  the hands of Christ Who gives it to you that you may join Him in the  holy task of bringing light to darkness. For, like your brothers, you
Tx:13.63  instant that it is perceived. Where everything is clear, it is all  holy. The quietness of its simplicity is so compelling that you will

Tx:13.68  the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the  Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of decision is
Tx:13.70  darkness has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the  Holy Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy
Tx:13.72  himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the  Holy Spirit would gladly offer him.
Tx:13.74  that what they want is good. Yet will was given them because it is  holy and will bring to them all that they need, coming as naturally
Tx:13.74  of value. Yet because they do not understand their will, the  Holy Spirit quietly understands it for them and gives them what they
Tx:13.76  Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the  Holy Spirit everything and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel.
Tx:13.77  would define what salvation is and what you would be saved from. The  Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from guilt. You have
Tx:13.77  against this strange distortion of the purity of the Son of God, the  Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong protector of your
Tx:13.79 Seek not to appraise the worth of God's Son, whom He created  holy, for to do so is to evaluate his Father and judge against Him.
Tx:13.80 Say to the  Holy Spirit only, “Decide for me,” and it is done. For His decisions
Tx:13.80  cannot know when all knowledge lies behind every decision which the  Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach
Tx:13.88 When you have let all that obscured the truth in your most  holy mind be undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He
Tx:13.92  in summer. Only your own volition seems to make deciding hard. The  Holy Spirit will not delay at all in answering your every question
Tx:14.3  God. It does not teach you what you are or what your Father is. The  Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely teaches you how to
Tx:14.4  unlike the way he sees himself. God can communicate only to the  Holy Spirit in your mind because only He shares the knowledge of what
Tx:14.4  only He shares the knowledge of what you are with God. And only the  Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what God is.
Tx:14.5  nothing of value here and everything of value there. Listen to the  Holy Spirit and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is
Tx:14.11  only this. You will not be exempt from the effects of this most  holy lesson, which seeks but to restore what is the right of God's
Tx:14.12  of perfect purity from which no one is excluded. Within its  holy circle is everyone whom God created as His Son. Joy is its
Tx:14.13  calling you to peace. Teach peace with me and stand with me on  holy ground. Remember for everyone your Father's power that He has
Tx:14.14  aim. It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The  Holy Spirit sees only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would
Tx:14.15 Each one you see you place within the  holy circle of Atonement or leave outside, judging him fit for
Tx:14.15  Holiness must be shared, for therein lies everything that makes it  holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all
Tx:14.15  for therein lies everything that makes it holy. Come gladly to the  holy circle, and look out in peace on all who think they are outside.
Tx:14.15  this is what he seeks, along with you. Come, let us join him in the  holy place of peace, which is for all of us, united as one within the
Tx:14.17 The quiet light in which the  Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness in which
Tx:14.20  you have made for breaking your communication with your Father. The  Holy Spirit reinterprets it as a means of reestablishing what has not
Tx:14.20  been made obscure. All things you made have use to Him for His most  holy purpose. He knows you are not separate from God, but He
Tx:14.20  it to crucify yourselves must learn of Him how to apply it to the  holy cause of restoration.
Tx:14.21  maker. You who made it are but expressing conflict, from which the  Holy Spirit would release you. Leave what you would communicate to
Tx:14.23 The  Holy Spirit's function is entirely communication. He therefore must
Tx:14.28  not defend itself. Defense is of your making. God knows it not. The  Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth only because you made
Tx:14.29  you made, must be gently turned to your own good, translated by the  Holy Spirit from means of self-destruction to means of preservation
Tx:14.30 The  Holy Spirit asks of you but this—bring to Him every secret you have
Tx:14.31  one purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which the  Holy Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to your mind with
Tx:14.32  let all that would hide your glory be brought to the judgment of the  Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for glory is saved
Tx:14.34  do know God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the  Holy Spirit shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting
Tx:14.34  Him. Communication between what cannot be divided cannot cease. The  holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the
Tx:14.34  holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the  Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that
Tx:14.36  creation is accomplished by the Creator and by His creations. In the  holy meeting place are joined the Father and His creations, and the
Tx:14.38 The Atonement does not make  holy. You were created holy. It merely brings unholiness to holiness,
Tx:14.38 The Atonement does not make holy. You were created  holy. It merely brings unholiness to holiness, or what you made to
Tx:14.38  bringing together of truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the  Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from your Father,
Tx:14.40  though His worshiper placed other gods upon it. The temple still is  holy, for the Presence that dwells within it is Holiness.
Tx:14.41  joy of living. For God is Life, and they abide in Life. [Life is as  holy as the Holiness by Which it was created.] The Presence of
Tx:14.41  that lives, for Holiness created life and leaves not what It created  holy as Itself.
Tx:14.43  to see no one can fail to understand. It is the message that the  Holy Spirit is holding to the mirror that is in him. He recognizes it
Tx:14.50  to arrange by judgment. [Therefore, it is not your function, but the  Holy Spirit's.] It will seem difficult for you to learn that you have
Tx:14.50  you have no basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the  Holy Spirit teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that
Tx:14.52 The only judgment involved at all is the  Holy Spirit's one division into two categories—one of love and the
Tx:14.55  you hold is for yourself. If you would remember your Father, let the  Holy Spirit order your thoughts and give only the answer with which
Tx:14.56 As God communicates to the  Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit translate His
Tx:14.56 As God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the  Holy Spirit translate His communications through you so you can
Tx:14.56  for all. Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from the  Holy Spirit is nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a
Tx:14.56  interpretation you would lay upon a brother is senseless. Let the  Holy Spirit show him to you and teach you both his love and need for
Tx:14.63  this in one form or another. And each bright lesson, with which the  Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide,
Tx:14.68  with certain aspects of your lives alone that the guidance of the  Holy Spirit is limited. Thus would you make Him undependable and use
Tx:14.69 Do you think that what the  Holy Spirit would have you give He would withhold from you? You have
Tx:14.70  no dark lessons of guilt can abide in what He has established as  holy by His Presence. Thank God that He is there and works through
Tx:14.71  your Father. The miracle of creation has never ceased, having the  holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is the Will of God for all
Tx:14.73  not upon the ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The  Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for
Tx:15.2  is your belief that this takes time, and that the results of the  Holy Spirit's teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the
Tx:15.2  Spirit's teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the  Holy Spirit uses time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is
Tx:15.2  uses time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, like the  Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the
Tx:15.2  teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the  Holy Spirit the goal is life, which has no end.
Tx:15.8 The  Holy Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego
Tx:15.8  from understanding the present, because you are afraid of it. The  Holy Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell.
Tx:15.8  leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the  Holy Spirit, Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by
Tx:15.9 The  Holy Spirit would undo all of this now. Fear is not of the present
Tx:15.10  it takes no time at all to be what you are. Begin to practice the  Holy Spirit's use of time as a teaching aid to happiness and peace.
Tx:15.10  completely free, and wholly without condemnation. From this  holy instant wherein holiness was born again, you will go forth in
Tx:15.11  lies Heaven. And Heaven will not change, for the birth into the  holy present is salvation from change. Change is an illusion, taught
Tx:15.11  is no change in Heaven because there is no change in God. In the  holy instant in which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you
Tx:15.12  “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a time to the  Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need
Tx:15.13 You will never give this  holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you
Tx:15.13 You will never give this holy instant to the  Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to give
Tx:15.13  attest to your willingness to be released and to offer time to the  Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an instant? It is as short
Tx:15.13  are enslaved by time and thus make time their friend for them. The  Holy Spirit gives their blessed instant to you through your giving
Tx:15.14  you give is your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be  holy if you offer holiness. How long is an instant? As long as it
Tx:15.15 Time is your friend if you leave it to the  Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore God's whole
Tx:15.15  in that shining instant of perfect release. Offer the miracle of the  holy instant through the Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you
Tx:15.15  perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the  Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you to Him.
Tx:15.16  For unless God is bound, you cannot be. An instant offered to the  Holy Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, and in that instant you
Tx:15.16  the blessed instant, you will let go all your past learning, and the  Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What
Tx:15.17  eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's  holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His teaching
Tx:15.18  uphold its weakness, do not perceive the Source of strength. In the  holy instant, you will unchain all your brothers and refuse to
Tx:15.19  Yet they are far stronger and much more compelling witnesses for the  Holy Spirit. And they support His strength. It is, therefore, your
Tx:15.19  It is, therefore, your choice whether they support the ego or the  Holy Spirit in you. And you will know which you have chosen by their
Tx:15.19  by their reactions. A Son of God who has been released through the  Holy Spirit in a brother, if the release is complete, is always
Tx:15.19  of this, you have not given one single instant completely to the  Holy Spirit. For when you have, you will be sure you have. You will
Tx:15.20  until you hear one witness whom you have wholly released through the  Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The holy instant has
Tx:15.20  through the Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The  holy instant has not yet happened to you. Yet it will, and you will
Tx:15.20  recognized in any other way. You can practice the mechanics of the  holy instant and will learn much from doing so. Yet its shining and
Tx:15.21 Start now to practice your little part in separating out the  holy instant. You will receive very specific instructions as you go
Tx:15.25 There is no doubt about what your function is, for the  Holy Spirit knows what it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude,
Tx:15.26  to the ego or host to God?” Let this question be asked you by the  Holy Spirit in you every time you make a decision. For every decision
Tx:15.27  for hell and will bring you awareness of what you decided for. The  Holy Spirit can hold your magnitude, clean of all littleness, clearly
Tx:15.30  and all the little offerings you have given slip into nothingness.  Holy Child of God, when will you learn that only holiness can content

Tx:15.37  decision to join in any plan but His. I call you to fulfill your  holy part in the plan that He has given to the world for its release
Tx:15.38 Would you learn how perfect and immaculate is the  holy altar on which your Father has placed Himself? This you will
Tx:15.38  which your Father has placed Himself? This you will recognize in the  holy instant in which you willingly and gladly give over every plan
Tx:15.38  you have been willing to meet its conditions. You can claim the  holy instant any time and anywhere you want it. In your practice, try
Tx:15.38  for finding magnitude in littleness. It is not there. Use the  holy instant only to recognize that you alone cannot know where it is
Tx:15.39 I stand within the  holy instant, as clear as you would have me. And the extent to which
Tx:15.39  to be willing to accept me is the measure of the time in which the  holy instant will be yours. I call to you to make the holy instant
Tx:15.39  in which the holy instant will be yours. I call to you to make the  holy instant yours at once, for the release from littleness in the
Tx:15.40 You could live forever in the  holy instant, beginning now and reaching to eternity, but for a very
Tx:15.40  and not to let it go. The simple reason, simply stated, is this: The  holy instant is a time in which you receive and give perfect
Tx:15.41  could do that is to deny the perfect communication that makes the  holy instant what it is. You believe that it is possible to harbor
Tx:15.42  that interferes with it go forever?” If the answer is no, then the  Holy Spirit's readiness to give it to you is not enough to make it
Tx:15.42  it cannot come into a mind that has decided to oppose it. For the  holy instant is given and received with equal willingness, being the
Tx:15.43 The necessary condition for the  holy instant does not require that you have no thoughts which are not
Tx:15.44  not to protect the thoughts you would keep unto yourself. Let the  Holy Spirit's purity shine them away and bring all your awareness to
Tx:15.45 The  holy instant is the Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for
Tx:15.45 The holy instant is the  Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for teaching you love's
Tx:15.47  can give you more than others? The past has taught you this. Yet the  holy instant teaches you it is not so.
Tx:15.48  perfect. In His function as Interpreter of what you have made, the  Holy Spirit uses special relationships, which you have chosen to
Tx:15.49 The  Holy Spirit knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you
Tx:15.50  which you would substitute for another has not been offered to the  Holy Spirit for His use. There is no substitute for love. If you
Tx:15.52  special relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the  Holy Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the
Tx:15.52  Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the  holy instant no one is special, for your personal needs intrude on no
Tx:15.52  Nor would you see any separation between yourself and them. In the  holy instant, you see in each relationship what it will be when you
Tx:15.53  nothing, having always known you exactly as He knows you now. The  holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all perception out of
Tx:15.53  have built by which to judge your brothers. Once this is gone, the  Holy Spirit substitutes His frame of reference for it. His frame of
Tx:15.53  frame of reference for it. His frame of reference is simply God. The  Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy instant,
Tx:15.53  God. The Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the  holy instant, free of the past, you see that love is in you, and you
Tx:15.54 All your relationships are blessed in the  holy instant because the blessing is not limited. In the holy
Tx:15.54  in the holy instant because the blessing is not limited. In the  holy instant, the Sonship gains as one. And united in your blessing,
Tx:15.54  you have been told to offer miracles as Christ directs and let the  Holy Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the holy
Tx:15.54  the Holy Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the  holy instant, you unite directly with God, and all your brothers join
Tx:15.55  Love. With love in you, you have no need except to extend it. In the  holy instant, there is no conflict of needs, for there is only one.
Tx:15.55  there is no conflict of needs, for there is only one. For the  holy instant reaches to eternity and to the Mind of God. And it is
Tx:15.56  condemn part of a relationship and find peace within it. Under the  Holy Spirit's teaching, all relationships are seen as total
Tx:15.57  as it is in you, or it would be a limited gift to you. In the  holy instant, we share our faith in God's Son because we recognize
Tx:15.60  accepted, and so no one is aware that perfect love is in him. In the  holy instant, you recognize the idea of love in you and unite this
Tx:15.60  relinquish it. By holding it within itself, there was no loss. The  holy instant thus becomes a lesson in how to hold all of your
Tx:15.61 In the  holy instant, the laws of God prevail, and only they have meaning.
Tx:15.62 In the  holy instant, nothing happens that has not always been. Only the veil
Tx:15.62  the light behind it can have faith in love without fear. Yet the  Holy Spirit gives you this faith because He offered it to me and I
Tx:15.62  faith because He offered it to me and I accepted it. Fear not the  holy instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me
Tx:15.62  instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the  Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that
Tx:15.62  Let no need that you perceive obscure your need of this. For in the  holy instant, you will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son
Tx:15.64 In the  holy instant God is remembered, and the language of communication
Tx:15.64  is remembered together, as is truth. There is no exclusion in the  holy instant because the past is gone and with it goes the whole
Tx:15.67  open-eyed at this, for ugliness such as this belongs not in your  holy mind. The host of God can have no real investment here.
Tx:15.69  chain that binds the Son of God to guilt, and it is this chain the  Holy Spirit would remove from his holy mind. For the chain of
Tx:15.69  to guilt, and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would remove from his  holy mind. For the chain of savagery belongs not around the chosen
Tx:15.69  closely at the relationships which the ego contrives and let the  Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you will
Tx:15.75  will feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the  Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate.
Tx:15.75  Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. The  Holy Spirit cannot teach through fear. And how can He communicate
Tx:15.77  in communication as surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the  Holy Spirit's teaching function to instruct those who believe that
Tx:15.77  the power of God in Him and you is joined in real relationship, so  holy and so strong that it can overcome even this without fear. It is
Tx:15.77  that it can overcome even this without fear. It is through the  holy instant that what seems impossible is accomplished, making it
Tx:15.77  is accomplished, making it evident that it is not impossible. In the  holy instant, guilt holds no attraction, since communication has been
Tx:15.79 The  holy instant does not replace the need for learning, for the Holy
Tx:15.79 The holy instant does not replace the need for learning, for the  Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the holy instant
Tx:15.79  for the Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the  holy instant has extended far beyond time. For a teaching assignment
Tx:15.80  desire with all your hearts. Let us join together in making the  holy instant all that there is by desiring that it be all that there
Tx:15.81  of failure as nothing more than a mistake in who you are. For the  holy host of God is beyond failure, and nothing that he wills can be
Tx:15.81  that he wills can be denied. You are forever in a relationship so  holy that it calls to everyone to escape from loneliness and join you
Tx:15.83 The  Holy Spirit is God's attempt to free you of what He does not
Tx:15.83  And because of the Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The  Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He would teach you
Tx:15.84 The  Holy Spirit knows that it is not understandable, and yet He
Tx:15.84  of what God cannot know and what you do not understand. It is His  holy function to accept them both, and by removing every element of
Tx:15.85  limit your perception of your brothers to the body, so would the  Holy Spirit release your vision and let you see the Great Rays
Tx:15.85  to God. It is this shift in vision which is accomplished in the  holy instant. Yet it is needful for you to learn just what this shift
Tx:15.87  relationships have no limits, having been established by God. In the  holy instant, where the Great Rays replace the body in awareness, the
Tx:15.89 If you would but let the  Holy Spirit tell you of the love of God for you and the need your
Tx:15.90  vision of God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the  Holy Spirit must undo to set him free. For his belief in limits has
Tx:15.91  and your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the  Holy Spirit teach you how to use the body only for purposes of
Tx:15.91  sees in it, you will learn you have no need of a body at all. In the  holy instant there are no bodies, and you experience only the
Tx:15.92  time nor season means anything in eternity. But here it is the  Holy Spirit's function to use them both, though not as the ego uses
Tx:15.92  my birth into the world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the  Holy Spirit teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him.
Tx:15.93 The  holy instant is truly the time of Christ. For in this liberating
Tx:15.94  have offered it to everyone. It is in your power to make this season  holy, for it is in your power to make the time of Christ be now.
Tx:15.102  the host who cradles God in the time of Christ, for the Host is as  holy as the Perfect Innocence which He protects and Whose power
Tx:15.103 This Christmas, give the  Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let yourself be healed
Tx:15.107 In the  holy instant, the condition of love is met, for minds are joined
Tx:15.109 God offers thanks to the  holy host who would receive Him and let Him enter and abide where He
Tx:15.111 I give you to the  Holy Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will be released,
Tx:15.112  There is much to do, and we have been long delayed. Accept the  holy instant as this year is born and take your place, so long left
Tx:15.112  by making it all the same. And let all your relationships be made  holy for you. This is our will. Amen.
Tx:16.1  suffering is shared. The capacity to empathize is very useful to the  Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His way is very
Tx:16.2  this you may be sure—if you will merely sit quietly by and let the  Holy Spirit relate through you, you will empathize with strength and
Tx:16.7  conflict because they contain an element of specialness. Only the  Holy Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He
Tx:16.10  everyone. And you have learned that it must include everyone to be  holy. Concern yourselves not with the extension of holiness, for the
Tx:16.13  Sonship as one has been made. When you have made this joining as the  Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to use as He knows
Tx:16.14  Yet this is your position. You would have perfect faith in the  Holy Spirit and in the effects of His teaching if you were not afraid
Tx:16.19  that makes for happiness. You have never given any problem to the  Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. You
Tx:16.25 Your teaching has already done this, for the  Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither God nor
Tx:16.25  of the Self you do not know. And they communicate to you through the  Holy Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their creation
Tx:16.28 To your most  holy Self, all praise is due for what you are and for what He is Who
Tx:16.41  more forget the truth in you than you can fail to remember it. The  Holy Spirit is the bridge to Him, made from your willingness to unite
Tx:16.47  There can be no disagreement on this, because both the ego and the  Holy Spirit accept it. They are, however, in complete disagreement on
Tx:16.47  disagreement on what completion is and how it is accomplished. The  Holy Spirit knows that completion lies first in union and then in the
Tx:16.60  be unable to find you and comfort you. There is a way in which the  Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The holy instant is
Tx:16.60  in which the Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The  holy instant is His most helpful tool in protecting you from the
Tx:16.68  within it. Wait no longer, for the love of God and you. And may the  holy instant speed you on the way, as it will surely do if you but
Tx:16.69 The  Holy Spirit asks only this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts
Tx:16.69  special relationship which still attracts you, enter with Him into a  holy instant and there let Him release you. He needs only your
Tx:16.75 Against the ego's insane notion of salvation, the  Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the
Tx:16.75  ego's insane notion of salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the  holy instant. We said before that the Holy Spirit must teach through
Tx:16.75  Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the  Holy Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses opposites to
Tx:16.75  teach through comparisons and uses opposites to point to truth. The  holy instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed belief in salvation
Tx:16.75  fixed belief in salvation through vengeance for the past. In the  holy instant, it is accepted that the past is gone, and with its
Tx:16.76 For a time you may attempt to bring illusions into the  holy instant to hinder your full awareness of the complete difference
Tx:16.76  of truth and illusion. Yet you will not attempt this long. In the  holy instant, the power of the Holy Spirit will prevail because you
Tx:16.76  will not attempt this long. In the holy instant, the power of the  Holy Spirit will prevail because you joined Him. The illusions you
Tx:16.76  will prevent you from keeping the experience in your mind. Yet the  holy instant is eternal, and your illusions of time will not prevent
Tx:16.77  giving. You will receive because it is His Will to give. He gave the  holy instant to be given you, and it is impossible that you receive
Tx:16.77  it. When He willed that His Son be free, His Son was free. In the  holy instant is His reminder that His Son will always be exactly as
Tx:16.77  His Son will always be exactly as he was created. And everything the  Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have received what
Tx:16.78  have been forgiven, for it is you who offered them illusions. In the  holy instant, this is done for you in time to bring to you the true
Tx:16.80 Seek and find his message in the  holy instant, where all illusions are forgiven. From there the
Tx:17.7  you will see the Son of God. You will behold the beauty which the  Holy Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the Father for. He
Tx:17.13  trembling with readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the  Holy Spirit to give you this is so intense He would not wait,
Tx:17.15  to its power. It is these shadow figures which would make the ego  holy in your sight and teach you what you do to keep it safe is
Tx:17.19  of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can the  Holy Spirit bring His interpretation of the body as a means of
Tx:17.21 The  Holy Spirit wills only to make His resolutions complete and perfect,
Tx:17.23 This is the only part of the relationship the  Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is true. You have
Tx:17.25  follows from them comes from what they are and is as true as is the  holy Source from which they came.
Tx:17.26 My  holy brothers, I would enter into all your relationships and step
Tx:17.26  and your goal of madness. Be not separate from me, and let not the  holy purpose of Atonement be lost to you in dreams of vengeance.
Tx:17.28  yet it is possible to make happy. We have said repeatedly that the  Holy Spirit would not deprive you of your special relationships but
Tx:17.28  function you have given them is clearly not to make happy. But the  holy relationship shares God's purpose, rather than aiming to make a
Tx:17.29  the special relationship was the ego's answer to the creation of the  Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the
Tx:17.30  system which the ego evolved to protect the separation from the  Holy Spirit was in response to the gift with which God blessed it and
Tx:17.30  within itself the truth about everything. And the truth is that the  Holy Spirit is in close relationship with you because in Him is your
Tx:17.30  to you. The relationship with Him has never been broken because the  Holy Spirit has not been separate from anyone since the separation.
Tx:17.30  from anyone since the separation. And through Him have all your  holy relationships been carefully preserved to serve God's purpose
Tx:17.36 That is why the  holy instant is so important in the defense of truth. The truth
Tx:17.37 The  holy instant is a miniature of Heaven, sent you from Heaven. It is a
Tx:17.37  your willingness to focus all your attention on the picture. The  holy instant is a miniature of eternity. It is a picture of
Tx:17.42  relationship with Him lies in our relationship to one another. The  holy instant shines alike on all relationships, for in it they are
Tx:17.43 The  holy relationship is the expression of the holy instant in living in
Tx:17.43 The holy relationship is the expression of the  holy instant in living in this world. Like everything about
Tx:17.43  in living in this world. Like everything about salvation, the  holy instant is a practical device, witnessed to by its results. The
Tx:17.43  holy instant is a practical device, witnessed to by its results. The  holy instant never fails. The experience of it is always felt. Yet
Tx:17.43  it is always felt. Yet without expression, it is not remembered. The  holy relationship is a constant reminder of the experience in which
Tx:17.43  is a continuing hymn of hate in praise of its maker, so is the  holy relationship a happy song of praise to the Redeemer of
Tx:17.44 The  holy relationship, a major step toward the perception of the real
Tx:17.44  It is the old unholy relationship transformed and seen anew. The  holy relationship is a phenomenal teaching accomplishment. In all its
Tx:17.44  it was. This is the first result of offering the relationship to the  Holy Spirit to use for His purposes.
Tx:17.45 This invitation is accepted immediately, and the  Holy Spirit wastes no time in introducing the practical results of
Tx:17.48  that the rewards of faith are being introduced. If you believed the  Holy Spirit was there to accept the relationship, why would you now
Tx:17.49  Him not now, nor each other. This relationship has been reborn as  holy.
Tx:17.50  explained to you as you perceive its purpose work in it to make it  holy. You will find many opportunities to blame each other for the
Tx:17.52  in joyous echo of your choice. You have joined with many in the  holy instant, and they have joined with you. Think not your choice
Tx:17.52  choice will leave you comfortless, for God Himself has blessed your  holy relationship. Join in His blessing, and withhold not yours upon
Tx:17.53 You undertook together to invite the  Holy Spirit into your relationship. He could not have entered
Tx:17.53  of thanks and gratitude, you make yourselves unable to express the  holy instant, and thus you lose sight of it.
Tx:17.54  But where are you? To give thanks to each other is to appreciate the  holy instant and thus enable its results to be accepted and shared.
Tx:17.54  but to make it powerless in its effects. You have received the  holy instant, but you have established a condition in which you
Tx:17.55 You stand together in the  holy presence of truth itself. Here is the goal, together with you.
Tx:17.56  freely given to each other, you will also accept the effects of the  holy instant and use them to correct all your mistakes and free you
Tx:17.57 The practical application of the  Holy Spirit's purpose is extremely simple, but it is unequivocal. In
Tx:17.57  for this it is apparent that it must be clear. The setting of the  Holy Spirit's goal is general. Now He will work with you to make it
Tx:17.60  is quite noticeable that this approach has brought you closer to the  Holy Spirit's sorting out of truth and falsity. The true becomes what
Tx:17.61  for the ego believes the situation brings the experience. The  Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the goal determines it and
Tx:17.62  of truth requires faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of the  Holy Spirit's purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the
Tx:17.62  Where the goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The  Holy Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the
Tx:17.67  cannot be seen except through faith, and your relationship was not  holy because your faith in one another was so limited and little.
Tx:17.69  and used your faithlessness against each other. No relationship is  holy unless its holiness goes with it everywhere. As holiness and
Tx:17.70 The power set in you in whom the  Holy Spirit's goal has been established is so far beyond your little
Tx:17.71  You can leave nothing of yourself outside it and keep the situation  holy. For it shares the purpose of your whole relationship and
Tx:17.72  [Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room for truth.] When the  Holy Spirit changed the purpose of your relationship by exchanging
Tx:17.73  loneliness in God must be a dream. You whose relationship shares the  Holy Spirit's goal are set apart from loneliness because the truth
Tx:17.74 The  holy instant is nothing more than a special case or an extreme
Tx:17.74  of what every situation is meant to be. The meaning which the  Holy Spirit's purpose has given it is also given to every situation.
Tx:17.74  and left unused, that faith might answer to the call of truth. The  holy instant is the shining example, the clear and unequivocal
Tx:17.75 This simple courtesy is all the  Holy Spirit asks of you. Let truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon
Tx:17.76 Would you not want to make a  holy instant of every situation? For such is the gift of faith,
Tx:17.76  faithlessness is laid aside unused. And then the power of the  Holy Spirit's purpose is free to use instead. This power instantly
Tx:18.1  perceive at once how much at variance this is with the goal the  Holy Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute
Tx:18.2 The  Holy Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one
Tx:18.2  Where the ego perceives one person as a replacement for another, the  Holy Spirit sees them joined and indivisible. He does not judge
Tx:18.2  separate. Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the  Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything seems to come between the
Tx:18.8  far outside you. And turn you to the stately calm within, where in  holy stillness dwells the living God you never left and Who never
Tx:18.8  dwells the living God you never left and Who never left you. The  Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your
Tx:18.9  Within yourselves you love each other with a perfect love. Here is  holy ground in which no substitution can enter and where only the
Tx:18.9  entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant truth to which the  Holy Spirit has committed your relationship. Let Him bring it here,
Tx:18.10  are. You are not joined together in illusions but in the Thought so  holy and so perfect that illusions cannot remain to darken the holy
Tx:18.10  so holy and so perfect that illusions cannot remain to darken the  holy place in which you stand together. God is with you, my brothers.
Tx:18.10  join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our most  holy and perfect reality, which we share in Him.
Tx:18.11  and His whole creation have entered it together. How lovely and how  holy is your relationship, with the truth shining upon it! Heaven
Tx:18.13 You have been called together to the most  holy function that this world contains. It is the only one which has
Tx:18.13  with healing and uniting comfort. This is offered you in your  holy relationship. Accept it here, and you will give as you have
Tx:18.13  of God is given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The  holy light that brought you together must extend, as you accepted it.
Tx:18.20 The  Holy Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and
Tx:18.20  your dreams of fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the  Holy Spirit does in your special relationship. He does not destroy it
Tx:18.21  will be a means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed through your  holy relationship. It will be a happy dream, and one which you will
Tx:18.21  all who come within your sight. Through it, the blessing which the  Holy Spirit has laid upon it will be extended. Think not that He has
Tx:18.23  special relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship, the  Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of happy
Tx:18.27  was merely the wish to understand. That wish was the desire to be  holy. The Will of God is granted you. For you desire the only thing
Tx:18.28  Your desire is now in complete accord with all the power of the  Holy Spirit's will. No little, faltering footsteps that you may take
Tx:18.29  light and is removed forever. My need for you, joined with me in the  holy light of your relationship, is your need for salvation. Would I
Tx:18.30  in you has been brought to light. Carry it back to darkness from the  holy instant to which you brought it. We are made whole in our desire
Tx:18.32 The  holy instant is the result of your determination to be holy. It is
Tx:18.32 The holy instant is the result of your determination to be  holy. It is the answer. The desire and the willingness to let it come
Tx:18.32  that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to give the  Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the ego unto Him
Tx:18.32  who adds the greatness and the might. He joins with you to make the  holy instant far greater than you can understand. It is your
Tx:18.33  why you came. If you could come without them, you would not need the  holy instant. Come to it not in arrogance, assuming that you must
Tx:18.33  must achieve the state its coming brings with it. The miracle of the  holy instant lies in your willingness to let it be what it is. And in
Tx:18.34  than greatness, which comes not of you. Your difficulty with the  holy instant arises from your fixed conviction that you are not
Tx:18.35 The  holy instant does not come from your little willingness alone. It is
Tx:18.36  but merely receive the answer as it is given. In preparing for the  holy instant, do not attempt to make yourself holy to be ready to
Tx:18.36  In preparing for the holy instant, do not attempt to make yourself  holy to be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse your role with
Tx:18.38  will add if you prepare yourself for love. The preparation for the  holy instant belongs to Him Who gives it. Release yourselves to Him
Tx:18.39 It is this that makes the  holy instant so easy and so natural. You make it difficult because
Tx:18.39  that it is not personally insulting that your contribution and the  Holy Spirit's are so extremely disproportionate. You are still
Tx:18.40  it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. If you believe the  holy instant is difficult for you, it is because you have become the
Tx:18.41  between truth and illusion, the Atonement would have no meaning. The  holy instant, your holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and
Tx:18.41  the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy instant, your  holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the means by
Tx:18.41  would have no meaning. The holy instant, your holy relationship, the  Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the means by which salvation is
Tx:18.42 Never approach the  holy instant after you have tried to remove all fear and hatred from
Tx:18.42  function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the  Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. Your part is only to offer
Tx:18.43 Through your  holy relationship, reborn and blessed in every holy instant which you
Tx:18.43 Through your holy relationship, reborn and blessed in every  holy instant which you do not arrange, thousands will rise to Heaven
Tx:18.44  for you to understand. You do not even realize you have accepted the  Holy Spirit's purpose as your own, and you would merely bring unholy
Tx:18.45 It is no dream to love your brother as yourself. Nor is your  holy relationship a dream. All that remains of dreams within it is
Tx:18.45  it is still a special relationship. Yet it is very useful to the  Holy Spirit, Who has a special function here. It will become the
Tx:18.46  relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the  Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him exchange
Tx:18.46  in spite of fear to let Him exchange this instant for the  holy one which you would rather have. He will never fail in this. But
Tx:18.46  Yet just as this is impossible, so is it equally impossible that the  holy instant come to either of you without the other. And it will
Tx:18.48 I desire this  holy instant for myself that I may share it with my brother, whom I
Tx:18.48  it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the  Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and keep us both in
Tx:18.52  function of the body, it cannot change its function from what the  Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The body was not made by love. Yet
Tx:18.55  is the host of God that you have made. And neither God nor His most  holy Son can enter an abode which harbors hate and where you have
Tx:18.61  physical restrictions, you experience much of what happens in the  holy instant; the lifting of the barriers of time and space, the
Tx:18.62  takes place with your desire for it is the irresistible appeal the  holy instant holds. It calls to you to be yourself within its safe
Tx:18.66 It is impossible to accept the  holy instant without reservation unless just for an instant you are
Tx:18.66  against sin. [Enormous effort is expended in the attempt to make  holy what is hated and despised.] Nor is a lifetime of contemplation
Tx:18.67 Your way will be different, not in purpose but in means. A  holy relationship is a means of saving time. One instant spent
Tx:18.69  activity of the body ceases to demand attention. Into this place the  Holy Spirit comes and there abides. He will remain when you forget
Tx:18.79  love with him from Heaven for you. They enter one by one into this  holy place, but they will not depart as they had come, alone. The
Tx:18.80  of Heaven with all the love of its Creator shining upon it. The  holy instant is your invitation to love, to enter into your bleak and
Tx:18.81  no barriers which would interfere with its glad coming. In the  holy instant, you ask of love only what it offers everyone, neither
Tx:18.84  the little thought that seems split off and separate, which the  Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and needs no
Tx:18.85  Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the  Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in which you set it
Tx:18.85  barricades is still a tiny segment of the Son of God, complete and  holy, serene and unaware of what you think surrounds it. Be you not
Tx:18.87  Yet God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the  Holy Spirit through seeming terror, trusting Him not to abandon you
Tx:18.94  interfere with love, letting it be itself. A step beyond this  holy place [of forgiveness], a step still further inward but the one
Tx:18.97  above the darkness and gently placed before the gates of Heaven. The  holy instant in which you were united is but the messenger of love,
Tx:18.98 And when the memory of God has come to you in the  holy place of forgiveness, you will remember nothing else, and memory
Tx:19.2  And he is healed because you offered faith to him, giving him to the  Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand your ego would make
Tx:19.2  make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision does the  Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has given it, and so He
Tx:19.4  apart from being healed. Your faithlessness has thus opposed the  Holy Spirit's purpose and brought illusions centered on the body to
Tx:19.11  separate from yours. Each one appears just as he is perceived in the  holy instant, united in your purpose to be released from guilt. You
Tx:19.12  for knowledge as is the real world. For faith arises from the  Holy Spirit's perception and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith
Tx:19.13 Your  holy relationship, with its new purpose, offers you faith to give
Tx:19.13  mind that receives it looks instantly beyond the body and sees the  holy place where it was healed. There is the altar where the grace
Tx:19.14 In the  holy instant, you stand before the altar God has raised unto Himself
Tx:19.15  your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith help the  Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden which He
Tx:19.15  so will faith help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most  holy garden which He would make of it. For faith brings peace, and so
Tx:19.27  perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, not error. The  Holy Spirit cannot punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and would
Tx:19.28  help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the  Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this
Tx:19.32  be split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what God created  holy could not prevail against it nor remain itself before the power
Tx:19.33  to His and in eternal opposition to Him and to each other. Your  holy relationship has as its purpose now the goal of proving this is
Tx:19.35 In the  holy instant, you will see the smile of heaven shining on both of
Tx:19.35  a union Heaven has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the  holy instant Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise
Tx:19.35  you now can see. The barriers to heaven will disappear before your  holy sight, for you who were sightless have been given vision, and
Tx:19.37  them, extending past completely unhindered. The extension of the  Holy Spirit's purpose from your relationship to others to bring them
Tx:19.38  placed before it. This will you do, for nothing undertaken with the  Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of nothing you
Tx:19.38  of nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the  Holy Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting-place where you will
Tx:19.39  are looking where He is and not apart from Him. You cannot see the  Holy Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. And the light in
Tx:19.39  When the peace in you has been extended to encompass everyone, the  Holy Spirit's function here will be accomplished. What need is there
Tx:19.39  there for seeing then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the  Holy Spirit will gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have
Tx:19.39  Him and lay them gently before His Creator in the name of His most  holy Son. And the Father will accept them in His Name. What need is
Tx:19.42 The  Holy Spirit's purpose rests in peace within you. Yet you are still
Tx:19.43  purpose apart from each other nor apart from the one you asked the  Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall away so
Tx:19.44  who answered, He Who answered you would call. His home is in your  holy relationship. Do not attempt to stand between Him and His holy
Tx:19.44  your holy relationship. Do not attempt to stand between Him and His  holy purpose, for it is yours. But let Him quietly extend the miracle
Tx:19.46  settle briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose now. Before the  Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to have a mighty
Tx:19.49  the truth, for there it sees itself, with which it would unite in  holy union and completion. As love must look past fear, so must fear
Tx:19.53 The  Holy Spirit has given you love's messengers to send instead of those
Tx:19.54 If you send forth only the messengers the  Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see
Tx:19.54  cannot ask love's messengers to remove from it and see it still. The  Holy Spirit has given you His messengers to send to each other and
Tx:19.55  joyous whispering is ever heard. This is a feast which honors your  holy relationship and at which everyone is welcomed as an honored
Tx:19.55  and at which everyone is welcomed as an honored guest. And in a  holy instant, grace is said by everyone together as they join in
Tx:19.61  as murder. Here is the source of the idea that love is fear. The  Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the body, calling the
Tx:19.61  messengers are sent far beyond the body, calling the mind to join in  holy communion and be at peace. Such is the message that I gave them
Tx:19.62  suffer. Is it a sacrifice to be removed from what can suffer? The  Holy Spirit does not demand you sacrifice the hope of the body's
Tx:19.62  can it bring you fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the  Holy Spirit asks, and this He would remove.
Tx:19.63  your Father, not a little mound of clay, to be your home. In your  holy relationship is your Father's Son. He has not lost communion
Tx:19.64  is no obstacle which you can place before our union, for in your  holy relationship, I am there already. We will surmount all obstacles
Tx:19.66 From your  holy relationship truth proclaims the truth, and love looks on
Tx:19.66  which the Father and the Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the  holy union of the Father and Son in you! And keep you not apart from
Tx:19.67  teaching freedom to each other and so releasing me. I am within your  holy relationship, yet you would imprison me behind the obstacles you
Tx:19.68 Your little part is but to give the  Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He
Tx:19.73  invested is given by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the  Holy Spirit both recognize this, and both also recognize that here
Tx:19.73  also recognize that here the sender and receiver are the same. The  Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for it would
Tx:19.76  and what is offered must also be received to be truly given. For the  Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving from the
Tx:19.76  the Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the  Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is sent
Tx:19.77 To you in whose special relationship the  Holy Spirit entered, it is given to release and be released from the
Tx:19.79  dedication is not to death nor to its master. When you accepted the  Holy Spirit's purpose in place of the ego's, you renounced death,
Tx:19.82  the body incorruptible and perfect as long as it is useful for your  holy purpose. The body no more dies than it can feel. It does
Tx:19.86  you. Your newborn purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the  Holy Spirit, and protected by God Himself. It needs not your
Tx:19.88  with such seeming uncertainty of meaning, judge it not. Remember the  holy Presence of the One given to you to be the Source of judgment.
Tx:19.94  And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace and drive the  Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence of the quiet recognition
Tx:19.98  while and tremble not. You will be ready. Let us join together in a  holy instant, here in this place where the purpose given in a holy
Tx:19.98  in a holy instant, here in this place where the purpose given in a  holy instant has led you. And let us join in faith that He Who
Tx:19.102  each of you is one who offers you the chalice of Atonement, for the  Holy Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or accept
Tx:19.103 Behold your Friend, the Christ Who stands beside you. How  holy and how beautiful He is! You thought He sinned because you cast
Tx:19.104  that you cannot offer to each other and receive from your most  holy Friend. Let him withhold it not, for by receiving it you offer
Tx:19.105 Here is the  holy place of resurrection to which we come again; to which we will
Tx:19.105  is before you would condemn him. And offer thanks to God that he is  holy and has been given the gift of holiness for you. Join him in
Tx:19.106  not separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the  Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer
Tx:19.106  for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer to the  Holy Spirit this same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in
Tx:19.106  gave. He leadeth you and me together that we might meet here in this  holy place and make the same decision.
Tx:19.110  they have a purpose. Yet it is given you to see this purpose in your  holy Friend and recognize it is your own.
Tx:20.1  of victory and the acceptance of the truth. Let us not spend this  holy week brooding on the crucifixion of God's Son, but happily in
Tx:20.2 This week begins with palms and ends with lilies, the white and  holy sign the Son of God is innocent. Let no dark sign of crucifixion
Tx:20.3  rests on Christ, along with mine. A week is short, and yet this  holy week is the symbol of the whole journey the Son of God has
Tx:20.9  you have asked for and received another sight. Those who accept the  Holy Spirit's purpose as their own share also His vision. And what
Tx:20.10  them not. Nor can you use what I have given unless you share it. The  Holy Spirit's vision is no idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about
Tx:20.11  of illusion that God Himself could give. For what God gave the  Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto you for his
Tx:20.13 Would you not have your  holy brother lead you there? His innocence will light your way,
Tx:20.13  you its guiding light and sure protection, and shining from the  holy altar within him where you laid the lilies of forgiveness. Let
Tx:20.15  and the strength to lead you there. And come before each other's  holy altar where the strength and freedom wait, to offer and receive
Tx:20.17  interference which makes it difficult for you to recognize your  holy relationship for what it is.
Tx:20.18 The  holy do not interfere with truth. They are not afraid of it, for it
Tx:20.21 Who in a  holy relationship can long remain unholy? The world the holy see is
Tx:20.21 Who in a holy relationship can long remain unholy? The world the  holy see is one with them, just as the world the ego looks upon is
Tx:20.21  just as the world the ego looks upon is like itself. The world the  holy see is beautiful because they see their innocence in it. They
Tx:20.22  a purpose, but he will not remain before the shining light the  Holy Spirit offered and you accepted. For there the stranger is made
Tx:20.24  shone in both of you to bless the other? That is the purpose of your  holy relationship. Ask not the means of its attainment of the one
Tx:20.27  will lead the other to the Father as surely as God created His Son  holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of God's eternal
Tx:20.28  power at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the  Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He gives no power
Tx:20.28  and misery and pain. These things have not occurred because the  Holy Spirit sees them not and gives no power to their seeming source.
Tx:20.28  keep you free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the  Holy Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already given and
Tx:20.29  And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in giving, as the  Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of God
Tx:20.33  two by two, yet the beginning of another world goes with them. Each  holy relationship must enter here to learn its special function in
Tx:20.33  relationship must enter here to learn its special function in the  Holy Spirit's plan, now that it shares His purpose. And as this
Tx:20.35  one function that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the  Holy Spirit will not arrange for you without your effort.
Tx:20.37 In this world, God's Son comes closest to himself in a  holy relationship. There he begins to find the certainty his Father
Tx:20.38  is the unity of love proclaimed and given welcome. Peace to your  holy relationship, which has the power to hold the unity of the Son
Tx:20.41  is as little use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as the  Holy Spirit teaches, it has no function, for minds need not the body
Tx:20.41  sight that sees the body has no use which serves the purpose of a  holy relationship. And while you look upon each other thus, the means
Tx:20.41  and end have not been brought in line. Why should it take so many  holy instants to let this be accomplished, when one would do? There
Tx:20.42 You look upon each  holy instant as a different point in time. It never changes. All that
Tx:20.44 Be comforted and feel the  Holy Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence in what
Tx:20.46 Nothing can show the contrast better than the experience of both a  holy and an unholy relationship. The first is based on love and rests
Tx:20.49 The  Holy Spirit's temple is not a body, but a relationship. The body is
Tx:20.49  in its idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for here love cannot enter. The  Holy Spirit does not build His temples where love can never be. Would
Tx:20.50 You cannot make the body the  Holy Spirit's temple, and it will never be the seat of love. It is
Tx:20.51  Your temple is not threatened. You are idolaters no longer. The  Holy Spirit's purpose lies safe in your relationship and not your
Tx:20.51  have escaped the body. Where you are the body cannot enter, for the  Holy Spirit has set His temple there.
Tx:20.53  Is this the substitute you want for the eternal blessing of the  holy instant and its unlimited beneficence? Is the malevolence of the
Tx:20.53  and so invested in a false attraction, your preference to the  holy instant which offers you peace and understanding? Then lay aside
Tx:20.53  transcend it, rising to welcome what you really want. And from His  holy temple, look you not back on what you have awakened from. For no
Tx:20.54 The  holy relationship reflects the true relationship the Son of God has
Tx:20.54  true relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The  Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will endure forever.
Tx:20.54  to its own. Here the unholy instant is exchanged in gladness for the  holy one of safe return. Here is the way to true relationships held
Tx:20.56  body or let himself be given freedom from it. Here he can accept the  holy instant, offered him to replace the unholy one he chose before.
Tx:20.56  learning this may still be fearful, but you are not immobilized. The  holy instant is of greater value now to you than its unholy seeming
Tx:20.58  of means and end and how these must be brought in line before your  holy relationship can bring you only joy. But we have also said the
Tx:20.58  can bring you only joy. But we have also said the means to meet the  Holy Spirit's goal will come from the same Source as does His
Tx:20.60 To obtain the goal, the  Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the means as
Tx:20.65  body is the sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the  Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy
Tx:20.65  the means the Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a  holy relationship achieve its purpose through the means of sin?
Tx:20.65  it cannot look on sin. And thus it leads you to reality. Your  holy brother, sight of whom is your release, is no illusion. Attempt
Tx:20.66  not that his sinlessness is your escape from fear. Salvation is the  Holy Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing look
Tx:20.67  it was lost to you through your desire for something else. Open the  holy place which you closed off by valuing the “something else,” and
Tx:20.68  you not willingly be free of misery and learn again of joy? Your  holy relationship offers all this to you. As it was given you, so
Tx:20.68  this to you. As it was given you, so will be its effects. And as its  holy purpose was not made by you, the means by which its happy end is
Tx:20.69  sinlessness is given you in shining light, to look on with the  Holy Spirit's vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will
Tx:20.69  for it with real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the  Holy Spirit and at one with Him on what salvation is. Be willing,
Tx:20.70 The  Holy Spirit guarantees that what God willed and gave you shall be
Tx:20.70  as you look upon each other, you will see an altar to your Father,  holy as Heaven, glowing with radiant purity and sparkling with the
Tx:20.70  can the engine of destruction be preferred and chosen to replace the  holy home the Holy Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you?
Tx:20.70  of destruction be preferred and chosen to replace the holy home the  Holy Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you?
Tx:20.72  before you. All that could save you, you will never see. Your  holy relationship, the source of your salvation, will be deprived of
Tx:20.72  source of your salvation, will be deprived of meaning, and its most  holy purpose bereft of means for its accomplishment.
Tx:20.76  at all or merely judged against. Vision is the means by which the  Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into happy dreams; your wild
Tx:21.1  is meaningless. Everything looked upon with vision is healed and  holy. Nothing perceived without it means anything. And where there is
Tx:21.13  relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you offer to the  Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very little on
Tx:21.17  decide for God for you. This is the little gift you offer to the  Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by
Tx:21.18  you see goes with it. Never was so much given for so little. In the  holy instant is this exchange effected and maintained. Here is the
Tx:21.22 The  Holy Spirit can give you faith in holiness and vision to see it
Tx:21.23  upon them, and what is really there you cannot fail to see. The  holy instant is not an instant of creation but of recognition. For
Tx:21.29  from the accepted purpose of the relationship. And that is why the  Holy Spirit must change its purpose to make it useful to Him and
Tx:21.32  the means by which the goal of holiness is reached. Through them the  Holy Spirit leads you to the real world and away from all illusions
Tx:21.34 The  Holy Spirit has a use for all the means for sin by which you sought
Tx:21.34  you might choose among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The  Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision
Tx:21.34  Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision of a  holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you give your
Tx:21.37 Those who believe in sin must think the  Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their
Tx:21.37  this is how they think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the  Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no
Tx:21.39 Think you the  Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what it is His
Tx:21.40  looked upon quite differently. You can have faith in it to serve the  Holy Spirit's goal and give it power to serve as means to help the
Tx:21.41 The  Holy Spirit will never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will
Tx:21.43  themselves from their belief that their identity lies in the ego. A  holy relationship is one in which you join with what is part of you
Tx:21.44  And what your reason tells you now, the ego would not hear. The  Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your mind the ego
Tx:21.44  knows no sin. How, otherwise, could it have been willing to see the  Holy Spirit's purpose as its own?
Tx:21.45  you. And now you recognize that it was not the ego that joined the  Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be something else. Think not
Tx:21.46 There is no inconsistency in what the  Holy Spirit teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have
Tx:21.53  you now, being eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the  Holy Spirit can abide and where He is. He must have been there since
Tx:21.55  and you have gone past this. Reason is a means which serves the  Holy Spirit's purpose in its own right. It is not reinterpreted and
Tx:21.57  in union with your Father's to the undoing of insanity. Here was the  Holy Spirit's purpose accepted and accomplished both at once. Reason
Tx:21.66  in order to escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the  Holy Spirit still holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness.
Tx:21.82  asks if you are willing to exchange the world of sin for what the  Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the world of sin denies. And
Tx:21.90 What is the  holy instant but God's appeal to you to recognize what He has given
Tx:22.3 A  holy relationship starts from a different premise. Each one has
Tx:22.4 Think what a  holy relationship can teach! Here is belief in differences undone.
Tx:22.4  circle where you recognize the Son of God. For what is born into a  holy relationship can never end.
Tx:22.11 So in each  holy relationship is the ability to communicate instead of separate
Tx:22.11  is the ability to communicate instead of separate reborn. Yet a  holy relationship, so recently reborn itself from an unholy
Tx:22.12 Think what is given you, my  holy brothers. This child will teach you what you do not understand
Tx:22.14  to deny illusions is to recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the  holy home, where fear is powerless, love enters thankfully, grateful
Tx:22.15  For He is always drawn unto Himself. What is as like Him as a  holy relationship? And what draws you together draws Him to you. Here
Tx:22.15  drawn to Christ is drawn to God as surely as both are drawn to every  holy relationship, the home prepared for them as earth is turned to
Tx:22.20  Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was given to the  Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can
Tx:22.21  the ego must be made complete. For if you have the means to let the  Holy Spirit's purpose be accomplished, they can be used. And through
Tx:22.26  for what he is if God would have it so. What God has given to your  holy relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy Spirit to give
Tx:22.26  has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the  Holy Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the
Tx:22.27  it from the bright endless circle that extends forever is your  holy relationship, beloved of God Himself. How still it rests, in
Tx:22.27  home with vision that overlooks the world. Would you not have this  holy home be yours as well? No misery is here, but only joy.
Tx:22.28  the home of perfect purity, and God created it for you. Look on your  holy brother, sinless as yourself, and let him lead you there.
Tx:22.37 A  holy relationship, however newly born, must value holiness above all
Tx:22.37  as causing sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet reason sees a  holy relationship as what it is—a common state of mind, where both
Tx:22.40 And so you stand, here in this  holy place, before the veil of sin that hangs between you and the
Tx:22.40  from them into a darkened world that needs the light. And from this  holy place He will return with you, not leaving it nor you. You will
Tx:22.44  it, he learned it was not given him alone. Such is the function of a  holy relationship—to receive together and give as you received.
Tx:22.44  It is no solid wall. And only an illusion stands between you and the  holy Self you share.
Tx:22.46  Belief in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the  Holy Spirit offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For sin
Tx:22.52  Yet even in this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the  Holy Spirit waits in gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He
Tx:22.54 This  holy relationship, lovely in its innocence, mighty in strength, and
Tx:22.54  to it can be misused, and nothing given it but will be used. This  holy relationship has the power to heal all pain, regardless of its
Tx:22.55 Before a  holy relationship there is no sin. The form of error is no longer
Tx:22.56  laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the  Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His means must
Tx:22.58  and only this.] Accept this one and serve it willingly, for what the  Holy Spirit does with the gifts you give each other, to whom He
Tx:22.59  what your Father loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the  Holy Spirit's function. Leave this to Him. Let your concern be only
Tx:22.63  conclude because you can attack you must be different. Yet does the  Holy Spirit explain this differently. Because you are not different,
Tx:22.64 This is the function of your  holy relationship. For what one thinks the other will experience with
Tx:23.15  And you who are beloved of Him are no illusions, being as true and  holy as Himself.
Tx:23.16  of you, who dwell as one and not apart. Open the door of His most  holy home and let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in
Tx:23.16  everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the  Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never be disturbed.
Tx:23.17  The altar disappears, the light grows dim, the temple of the  Holy One becomes a house of sin. And nothing is remembered except
Tx:23.50  your relationship is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the  holy function God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another
Tx:23.50  and the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the  Holy Spirit understand how to increase your little gifts and make
Tx:24.15  you really are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the  Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which
Tx:24.20  and His Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in this  holy place does truth stand waiting to receive you both in silent
Tx:24.25 The key you threw away God gave your brother, whose  holy hands would offer it to you when you were ready to accept His
Tx:24.31  malice of one thought of specialness to mar your rest. Forgive the  Holy One the specialness He could not give and which you made instead.
Tx:24.47  and seek salvation in a war with love, consider this: the  holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you to offer you your
Tx:24.52  of God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the  Holy Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see
Tx:24.66  as safely as itself. Nor will that light go out when it is gone. Its  holy purpose gave it immortality, setting another light in Heaven,
Tx:24.67  till you go past learning to the Given; not till you make again a  holy home for your creations is it understood.
Tx:25.4  through the mind at one with Him. And you are manifest unto your  holy brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the holy Christ
Tx:25.4  unto your holy brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the  holy Christ unto Himself; nor are any differences perceived to stand
Tx:25.8  may reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son and  Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth.
Tx:25.8  understanding in the part of you that shares His Father's Will. The  Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate,
Tx:25.9 The  Holy Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your mind, so that the aim of
Tx:25.9  perceived as one, aware that it is one and so experienced. It is the  Holy Spirit's function to teach you how this oneness is experienced,
Tx:25.17 The  Holy Spirit is the frame God set around the part of Him that you
Tx:25.21  and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And give the  Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing
Tx:25.30  must have been wrong. And thus is change made possible. The  Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change.
Tx:25.46 Such is the  Holy Spirit's kind perception of specialness—His use of what you
Tx:25.47  is the only function meaningful in time. It is the means the  Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation.
Tx:25.49 The  Holy Spirit needs your special function that His may be fulfilled.
Tx:25.49  salvation easily and well. The Son of God can make no choice the  Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against himself. Only
Tx:25.50 And if the  Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon yourself
Tx:25.54 The  Holy Spirit has the power to change the whole foundation of the world
Tx:25.61  the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the  Holy Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your
Tx:25.63 The  Holy Spirit can use all that you give to Him for your salvation. But
Tx:25.67  and denies that it is real. It is impossible for you to share the  Holy Spirit's justice with a mind that can conceive of specialness at
Tx:25.67  hard for those who still believe sin meaningful to understand the  Holy Spirit's justice.
Tx:25.68  that their own belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the  Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They are unjust
Tx:25.69  they think the loss of sin a curse. And flee [the blessing of] the  Holy Spirit as if He were a messenger from hell sent from above in
Tx:25.74 As specialness cares not who pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the  Holy Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence at last, provided it is
Tx:25.74  if he sees truly. Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the  Holy Spirit ask if he will be that one, so justice may return to love
Tx:25.75  which you need comes not of you but from a larger Self, so great and  holy that He could not doubt His innocence. Your special function is
Tx:25.75  sinlessness He shares. His understanding will be yours. And so the  Holy Spirit's special function has been fulfilled. God's Son has
Tx:25.75  unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you give the  Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given you!
Tx:25.76  must be an injustice to them both, since they are equal in the  Holy Spirit's sight. Their Father gave the same inheritance to both.
Tx:25.77  eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as God appointed for His  holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the Holy
Tx:25.77  for His holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the  Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special function shows you nothing
Tx:25.80 Be certain any answer to a problem the  Holy Spirit solves will always be one in which no one loses. And this
Tx:25.80  it greater, harder to resolve, and more unfair. It is impossible the  Holy Spirit could see unfairness as a resolution. To Him, what is
Tx:25.81  sight of innocence makes punishment impossible and justice sure. The  Holy Spirit's perception leaves no ground for an attack. Only a loss
Tx:25.82  problem added to the first, in which the murder is not obvious. The  Holy Spirit's problem solving is the way in which the problem ends.
Tx:25.82  but as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the  Holy Spirit gives.
Tx:25.84  God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the  Holy Spirit's gift, were given specially to an elect and special
Tx:25.84  gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the  Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you want it solved. To keep
Tx:26.6  its reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice nor keep the  Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been lost.
Tx:26.7  make your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His  holy Son, think not that you have power to make of them what God
Tx:26.9  you back the gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the  Holy Spirit's special function but to release the holy Son of God
Tx:26.9  you. What is the Holy Spirit's special function but to release the  holy Son of God from the imprisonment he made to keep himself from
Tx:26.10 It is not difficult to understand the reasons why you do not ask the  Holy Spirit to solve all problems for you. He has not greater
Tx:26.11 The  Holy Spirit offers you release from every problem that you think you
Tx:26.13  It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not true. The  Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small or more or
Tx:26.15  you call forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the  Holy Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For what you
Tx:26.16  will not want. And you will see each little hurt resolved before the  Holy Spirit's gentle sight. For all of them are little in His sight
Tx:26.27 The  holy place on which you stand is but the space that sin has left. And
Tx:26.33  you who still believe you live in time and know not it is gone, the  Holy Spirit still guides you through the infinitely small and
Tx:26.73  the working out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the  Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all effects that
Tx:26.74  of pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the  Holy Spirit asks for what He gave without a cost at all.
Tx:26.76  because its form is changed and what it is cannot be recognized. The  Holy Spirit's purpose now is yours. Should not His happiness be yours
Tx:26.77 Think but how  holy you must be from whom the Voice for God calls lovingly unto your
Tx:26.77  may awake in him the Voice that answers to your call! And think how  holy he must be when in him sleeps your own salvation with his
Tx:26.78  you trade Them for an ancient hate? The ground whereon you stand is  holy ground because of Them Who, standing there with you, have
Tx:26.79  hate has wrought have They undone. And now you stand on ground so  holy Heaven leans to join with it and make it like itself. The shadow
Tx:26.84  and the Son return to what is Theirs and will forever be. Now is the  Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have come! For They have come at
Tx:26.89  And this you seek to add unto the purpose given it. The  Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of your holy Guests be
Tx:26.89  given it. The Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of your  holy Guests be known to you. And to this purpose, nothing can be
Tx:26.89  on it by rendering it purposeless, without the function that the  Holy Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus denied to every
Tx:26.90  without a purpose in a futile world. The world is fair because the  Holy Spirit has brought injustice to the light within, and there has
Tx:27.3  you offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith. The  Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of yourself in which
Tx:27.5  perceived and loved. Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the  Holy Spirit lays a picture of a different you. It is a picture of a
Tx:27.10  a picture of the proof that what your function is can never be! The  Holy Spirit's picture changes not the body into something it is not.
Tx:27.12  This thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that the  Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your function both be
Tx:27.20 The “cost” of your serenity is his. This is the “price” the  Holy Spirit and the world interpret differently. The world perceives
Tx:27.20  as a statement of the “fact” that your salvation sacrifices his. The  Holy Spirit knows your healing is the witness unto his and cannot be
Tx:27.21  to prevent a shift of balance in the sacrifice. How could the  Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, even less, to reason with an
Tx:27.24  perceive correction is the same as pardon, then you also know the  Holy Spirit's mind and yours are one. And so your own Identity is
Tx:27.26  his presence is perceived as all of you. To this remaining half the  Holy Spirit must represent the other half until you recognize it is
Tx:27.27  which cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the function which the  Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not
Tx:27.33  the means by which the truth is represented temporarily. It lets the  Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures possible until the time when
Tx:27.37  state of mind in which the answer is already there. Such is the  holy instant. It is here that all your problems should be brought and
Tx:27.38 Attempt to solve no problems but within the  holy instant's surety. For there the problem will be answered and
Tx:27.41  not want an honest answer where the conflict ends. Only within the  holy instant can an honest question honestly be asked. And from the
Tx:27.42  is preserved intact because it gave the answer to itself. The  holy instant is the interval in which the mind is still enough to
Tx:27.43  another question, though they leave the first unanswered. In the  holy instant, you can bring the question to the answer and receive
Tx:27.44  what he does not have? And who can share what he denies himself? The  Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to someone else. Yet by
Tx:27.46 The  holy instant is the miracle's abiding-place. From there each one is
Tx:27.47 What stands apart from you when you accept the blessing that the  holy instant brings? Be not afraid of blessing, for the One Who
Tx:27.48 Come to the  holy instant and be healed, for nothing that is there received is
Tx:27.48  will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing gave. The  holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and give them sight to
Tx:27.54  It is a loud, obscuring voice whose shrieks would silence what the  Holy Spirit says and keep His words from your awareness. Pain compels
Tx:27.56  he represents. And otherwise he lies, if you should call him by the  holy Name of God Himself.
Tx:27.61  happiness, that you may demonstrate the healing of the world. The  holy instant will replace all sin if you but carry its effects with
Tx:27.74 Rest in the  Holy Spirit and allow His gentle dreams to take the place of those
Tx:27.75 Dream softly of your sinless brother, who unites with you in  holy innocence. And from this dream, the Lord of Heaven will Himself
Tx:27.85 In gentle laughter does the  Holy Spirit perceive the cause and looks not to effects. How else
Tx:27.85  removed. Perhaps you come in tears, but hear Him say, “My brother,  Holy Son of God, behold your idle dream in which this could occur,”
Tx:27.85  your idle dream in which this could occur,” and you will leave the  holy instant with your laughter and your brother's joined with His.
Tx:27.87 The  Holy Spirit will repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance
Tx:28.3  memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All things the  Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him, without the
Tx:28.4 The  Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God Himself is there.
Tx:28.5 The  Holy Spirit's use of memory is quite apart from time. He does not
Tx:28.8 This is the Cause the  Holy Spirit has remembered for you, when you would forget. It is not
Tx:28.25 Like every lesson which the  Holy Spirit requests you learn, the miracle is clear. It demonstrates
Tx:28.43 The  Holy Spirit is in both your minds, and He is One because there is no
Tx:28.43  space between them vacant. And the Father comes to join His Son the  Holy Spirit joined.
Tx:28.44 The  Holy Spirit's function is to take the broken picture of the Son of
Tx:28.44  picture of the Son of God and put the pieces into place again. This  holy picture, healed entirely, does He hold out to every separate
Tx:28.45  to close each little gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your  holy Son. Your holiness, complete and perfect, lies in every one of
Tx:28.45  them. And they are joined because what is in one is in them all. How  holy is the smallest grain of sand when it is recognized as being
Tx:28.66  it can be used to liberate God's Son unto his home. And with this  holy purpose is it made a home of holiness a little while because it
Tx:29.13  because your Guest will welcome everyone whose feet have touched the  holy ground whereon you stand and where His gifts for them are laid.
Tx:29.24 How  holy are you, that the Son of God can be your savior in the midst of
Tx:29.29  of him, and there is no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams the  Holy Spirit gives is never one of fear. The coverings may not appear
Tx:29.32  can intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the role the  Holy Spirit gives to you who wait upon the Son of God and would
Tx:29.36  Why does it seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless the  Holy Spirit gives the dream its function, it was made for hate and
Tx:29.39 Swear not to die, you  holy Son of God! You make a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of
Tx:29.50  of idols in a world made sad and sick by seeing idols there. Your  holy minds are altars unto God, and where He is, no idols can abide.
Tx:29.60  but laugh if idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for him the  Holy Spirit speaks and tells you idols have no purpose here. For more
Tx:29.61  no life and seek for power in the powerless. What happened to the  holy Son of God that this could be his wish—to let himself fall
Tx:30.33 Do you not understand that to oppose the  Holy Spirit is to fight yourself? He tells you but your will; He
Tx:30.37  the world is given freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose  holy will you share. God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for
Tx:30.42  He has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols stands his  holy will to be but what he is. For more than whole is meaningless.
Tx:30.48  own. The star shines still; the sky has never changed. But you, the  holy Son of God Himself, are unaware of your reality.
Tx:30.82  it cannot be that meaning changes constantly and yet is true. The  Holy Spirit looks upon the world as with one purpose, changelessly
Tx:30.87  while the symbols which are used mean different things? The  Holy Spirit's goal gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to
Tx:31.4  from the first accomplishment of learning—an enormity so great the  Holy Spirit's Voice seems small and still before its magnitude. The
Tx:31.5  for their learning is the only purpose for your learning skill the  Holy Spirit sees in all the world. His simple lessons in forgiveness
Tx:31.22  hear a call that never has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this  holy place to which you come to listen silently and learn the truth
Tx:31.50  beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must the  Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this concept of the self must
Tx:31.51 Thus are the  Holy Spirit's lesson plans arranged in easy steps that though there
Tx:31.53  self. And both would go if either one were ever raised to doubt. The  Holy Spirit does not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks
Tx:31.62  the Spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless your  holy sight, that you may see the world of flesh no more except to
Tx:31.67  And what could hurt the truly innocent? Your will be done, you  holy Child of God. It does not matter if you think you are in earth
Tx:31.75  hell. And to each one has He allowed the grace to be a savior to the  holy ones especially entrusted to his care. And this he learns when
Tx:31.77  because a partial savior would be one who is but partly saved. The  holy ones whom God has given each of you to save are everyone you
Tx:31.78  while you see him apart from yours? For holiness is seen through  holy eyes that look upon the innocence within and thus expect to see
Tx:31.83  teach in all its forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the  holy Son of God he is a body, born in what must die, unable to escape
Tx:31.88  of Christ is powerless before His majesty and disappears before His  holy sight. The saviors of the world who see like Him are merely
Tx:31.95 I thank You, Father, for these  holy ones who are my brothers as they are Your Sons. My faith in them
Tx:31.95  because You gave it me on their behalf. And as I would but do Your  holy Will, so will they choose. And I give thanks for them.
W1:29.3  Would you know what is in them? Nothing is as it appears to you. Its  holy purpose stands beyond your little range. When vision has shown
W1:35.9 But my mind is part of God's. I am very  holy.
W1:36.1  the idea for yesterday from the perceiver to the perceived. You are  holy because your mind is part of God's. And because you are holy,
W1:36.1  You are holy because your mind is part of God's. And because you are  holy, your sight must be holy as well. “Sinless” means without sin.
W1:36.1  mind is part of God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be  holy as well. “Sinless” means without sin. You cannot be without sin
W1:37.1  nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains through your  holy vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because it offers
W1:38.2  anyone because it is equal in its power to save anyone. If you are  holy, so is everything God created. You are holy because all things
W1:38.2  save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything God created. You are  holy because all things He created are holy. And all things He
W1:38.2  God created. You are holy because all things He created are  holy. And all things He created are holy because you are.
W1:38.2  all things He created are holy. And all things He created are  holy because you are.

W1:43.1  purified that it will lead to knowledge. That is its function as the  Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its function in truth.
W1:43.2  holiness to his awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the  Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception
W1:43.3  vision is real, and it is real to the extent to which it shares the  Holy Spirit's purpose, then you cannot see apart from God.
W1:44.8  to you, and an awareness that you are attempting something very  holy. Salvation is your happiest accomplishment. It is also the only
W1:50.4  and surety. Let no idle and foolish thoughts enter to disturb the  holy mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is
W1:57.6 [35] My mind is part of God's. I am very  holy. As I share the peace of the world with my brothers, I begin to
W1:63.1 How  holy are you who have the power to bring peace to every mind! How
W1:64.2  was the purpose of the body itself. Yet we have learned that the  Holy Spirit has another use for all the illusions you have made, and
W1:64.2  you have made, and therefore He sees another purpose in them. To the  Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself
W1:64.6  from just this one simple choice. That is the only choice the  Holy Spirit sees. Therefore it is the only choice there is.
W1:65.4  long range disciplinary training which your mind needs, so that the  Holy Spirit can use it consistently for the purpose He shares with
W1:66.2 The ego does constant battle with the  Holy Spirit on the fundamental question of what your function is. So
W1:66.2  of what your function is. So does it do constant battle with the  Holy Spirit about what your happiness is. It is not a two-way battle.
W1:66.2  happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego attacks and the  Holy Spirit does not respond. He knows what your function is. He
W1:66.9  by the ego and is made up of illusions. The other is the home of the  Holy Spirit, where truth abides. There are no other guides but these
W1:66.9  but the fear which the ego always engenders and the love which the  Holy Spirit always offers to replace it.
W1:66.12  the ego ever proposed. Yet the ego is the only alternative to the  Holy Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth.
W1:67.3 Holiness created me  holy. Kindness created me kind. Helpfulness created me helpful.
W1:75.9  that your forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the  Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving.
W1:77.6 The  Holy Spirit cannot but assure you that your request is granted. The
W1:78.6  He who was enemy is more than friend when he is freed to take the  holy role the Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto
W1:78.6  enemy is more than friend when he is freed to take the holy role the  Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto you today.
W1:78.8  in the light of true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the  holy Name of God and of His Son, as holy as Himself:
W1:78.8  given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as  holy as Himself:
W1:78.9  one You have appointed as the one for me to ask to lead me to the  holy light In which he stands, that I may join with him.
W1:78.10  long for this. He would be free and make his freedom yours. The  Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no separation in God's Son.
W1:78.11  No dark grievances obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the  Holy Spirit to express through him the role God gave Him that you
W1:78.11  you laid your images aside and looked upon the miracle of love the  Holy Spirit showed you in their place. The world and Heaven join in
W1:80.2  You have recognized your only problem, opening the way for the  Holy Spirit to give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside
W1:81.2 [61] I am the light of the world. How  holy am I, who have been given the function of lighting up the world!
W1:89.5  replace all grievances. By this idea do I unite my will with the  Holy Spirit's and perceive them as one. By this idea do I accept my
W1:90.5  with the problem, so that they cannot be separated by time. The  Holy Spirit will teach me this if I will let Him. And I will
W1:91.9 If you are not a body, what are you? You need to be aware of what the  Holy Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You
W1:93.4  done, that all your “sins” are nothing, that you are as pure and  holy as you were created, and that light and joy and peace abide in
W1:95.9 The  Holy Spirit is not delayed in His teaching by your mistakes. He can
W1:95.17  with all there is and all that there will be. You are One Self, the  holy Son of God, united with your brothers in this Self, united with
W1:95.18  cast all your illusions out of the One Mind which is this Self, the  holy truth in you.
W1:96.8  and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. The  Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to
W1:97.2 We state again the truth about your Self, the  holy Son of God who rests in you whose mind has been restored to
W1:97.6 The  Holy Spirit will be glad to take five minutes of each hour from your
W1:97.8 Begin these happy exercises with the words the  Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them echo round the world through
W1:97.9 Spirit am I, a  holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free
W1:97.10 Expressed through you, the  Holy Spirit will accept this gift which you received of Him, increase
W1:97.12  if you yield to the belief that you are something else. The  Holy Spirit gives you peace today. Receive His words, and offer them
W1:99.5 The  Holy Spirit holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him
W1:99.5  in time because of your belief that time is real. Unshaken does the  Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and pain and death, on
W1:104.2  all meaningless and self-made gifts which we have placed upon the  holy altar where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are
W1:104.7 We clear a  holy place within our minds before His altar, where His gifts of
W1:106.11  a thousand minds are opened to the truth. And they will hear the  holy Word you hear. And when the hour is past, you will again release
W1:106.12 Today the  holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so
W1:109.9  one, bringing everyone into the boundless circle of your peace, the  holy sanctuary where you rest.
W1:110.8  in your mind, try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the  holy Son of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you,
W1:110.9  instead of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your mind the  holy Christ in you is waiting your acknowledgment as you. And you are
W1:110.11  Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, our  holy Self, the Christ in each of us:
W1:R3.6  but what is in your mind? Have faith in these reviews, the means the  Holy Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to
W1:R3.7  same trust and confidence and faith. It will not fail. It is the  Holy Spirit's chosen means for your salvation. Since it has His
W1:R3.12  then, to take it with you in the business of the day and make it  holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to God and to your Self.
W1:123.7  you offer thanks, and Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. This  holy half an hour given Him will be returned to you in terms of years
W1:124.2 How  holy are our minds! And everything we see reflects the holiness
W1:124.10  tomorrow, you will see your own transfiguration in the glass this  holy half an hour will hold out to you to look upon yourself. When
W1:124.11  cannot understand, a joy too deep for you to comprehend, a sight too  holy for the body's eyes to see, and yet you can be sure someday,
W1:125.3  without our personal desires, and without all judgment of His  holy Word. We will not judge ourselves today, for what we are cannot
W1:125.4 Hear,  holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His
W1:125.4  holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His  holy Word to spread across the world the tidings of salvation and the
W1:125.4  Word to spread across the world the tidings of salvation and the  holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet
W1:125.6  within you to be called upon today to help make ready your most  holy mind to hear the Voice of its Creator speak.
W1:128.6  free its wings, and it will fly in sureness and in joy to join its  holy purpose. Let it rest in its Creator, there to be restored to

W1:131.17  Today that day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His  holy Son, as does His Son remember his to Him. This is a day of
W1:135.20  and with joy which constantly increases as this life becomes a  holy instant, set in time but heeding only immortality. Let no

W1:138.7  the choice that time was made to help us make. Such is its  holy purpose, now transformed from the intent you gave it, that it be
W1:139.7  asked of you, for what you are is certain. It is set forever in the  holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and
W1:139.8  a statement which denies itself in statement? Let us not allow our  holy minds to occupy themselves with senseless musings such as this.
W1:139.13  hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract us from our  holy aim. For several minutes let your mind be cleared of all the
W1:139.13  of all the foolish cobwebs which the world would weave around the  holy Son of God. And learn the fragile nature of the chains that seem
W1:140.3 The happy dreams the  Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming of the world,
W1:140.5  and holiness cannot be found where sin is cherished. God abides in  holy temples. He is barred where sin has entered. Yet there is no
W1:151.7  witness to God's Son. He recognizes only what God loves, and in the  holy light of what He sees do all the ego's dreams of what you are
W1:151.8  of sin, unheeding of the body's witnesses before the rapture of His  holy face.
W1:151.12  body and the world, past every witness for unholiness, within the  Holy, holy as Itself. In everyone and everything, His Voice would
W1:151.12  and the world, past every witness for unholiness, within the Holy,  holy as Itself. In everyone and everything, His Voice would speak to
W1:151.12  your Self and your Creator, Who is one with Him. So will you see the  holy face of Christ in everything and hear in everything no sound
W1:151.15  thoughts are purified. So are you taught to teach the Son of God the  holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear
W1:151.17  As we give thanks the world unites with us and happily accepts our  holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has our
W1:153.5 You do not realize what you have done to sabotage the  holy peace of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of
W1:153.9  sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its  holy blessing through the world.
W1:153.10 Be still a moment, and in silence think how  holy is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable within its
W1:153.13  our quaint and childish thoughts of sin forever from the pure and  holy minds of Heaven's children and the Son of God. We pause but for
W1:154.15 The world recedes as we light up our minds and realize these  holy words are true. They are the message sent to us today from our
W1:155.8  no cost, but only gain. Illusion can but seem to hold in chains the  holy Son of God. It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step
W1:155.9  still to walk ahead of truth and let illusions be your guide. Your  holy brothers have been given you to follow in your footsteps as you
W1:155.10  with nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's completion,  holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You
W1:155.11  door on all the things that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the  holy Son of God will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be
W1:155.12  give you more than everything or offer less and still content the  holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now
W1:156.3  of His remains unshared by everything that lives. What lives is  holy as Himself because what shares His life is part of Holiness and
W1:156.4 There is a Light in you Which cannot die, Whose Presence is so  holy that the world is sanctified because of you. All things that
W1:156.4  may walk in softness, while the wind sinks to a whisper round your  holy head.
W1:157.1  light upon this day when echoes of eternity are heard. This day is  holy, for it ushers in a new experience, a different kind of feeling
W1:157.3  every lesson, faithfully rehearsed, brings you more swiftly to this  holy place and leaves you for a moment to your Self.
W1:157.5  will so transform your mind that it becomes the touchstone for the  holy thoughts of God.
W1:157.8  Today we will embark upon a course you have not dreamed of. But the  Holy One, the Giver of the happy dreams of life, Translator of
W1:157.8  the happy dreams of life, Translator of perception into truth, the  holy Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed for you this journey which
W1:158.5  and His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the  Holy Spirit sees because the mind of Christ beholds it too.
W1:158.6  with the intangible. Here is a quiet place within the world made  holy by forgiveness and by love. Here are all contradictions
W1:158.11  love. We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the  holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as well.
W1:159.5  can you safely trust to carry you from this world into one made  holy by forgiveness. Things which seem quite solid here are merely
W1:159.6 This is the  Holy Spirit's single gift—the treasure house to which you can
W1:159.8 Christ's vision is the  holy ground in which the lilies of forgiveness set their roots. This
W1:161.3  now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We give them to the  Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose which is different
W1:161.9  And in Christ's vision is his loveliness reflected in a form so  holy and so beautiful that you could scarce refrain from kneeling at
W1:161.14 Give me your blessing,  holy Son of God. I would behold you with the eyes of Christ, and see
W1:162.3  Holy indeed is he who makes these words his own—arising with them
W1:163.4  to rest beneath the headstone death has placed upon the body of the  holy Son of God.
W1:164.3 How  holy is your practicing today, as Christ gives you His sight and
W1:164.8  and offer you the treasure of salvation. He has need of your most  holy mind to save the world.
W1:167.10 Let us today be children of the truth and not deny our  holy heritage. Our life is not as we imagine it. Who changes life
W1:167.11 His  holy home we strive to keep today, as He established it and wills it
W1:167.12  a Source from Which perfection comes to us, remaining always in the  holy minds which He created perfect. As we were, so are we now and
W1:168.5 It is a new and  holy day today, for we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies
W1:169.1  it can be gently laid and willingly received, an altar clean and  holy for the gift.
W1:169.6  beyond salvation—past all thought of time, forgiveness, and the  holy face of Christ. The Son of God has merely disappeared into His
W1:169.11  It is here that miracles are laid, to be returned by you from  holy instants you receive through grace in your experience to all who
W1:170.14  complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we find our peace.  Holy are we because Your holiness has set us free. And we give
W1:R5.2 Steady our feet, our Father; let our doubts be quiet and our  holy minds be still, and speak to us. We have no words to give to
W1:R5.4  more meaningful, more personal and true, and more descriptive of the  holy Self we share and now prepare to know again:
W1:176.2 [161] Give me your blessing,  holy Son of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:181.10  our love for everyone we look upon attests to our remembrance of the  holy Self Which knows no sin and never could conceive of anything
W1:182.4  an innocence that will endure forever. Where this Child shall go is  holy ground. It is His holiness that lights up Heaven and that brings
W1:182.5 —just an interval in which He can return to breathe again the  holy air that fills His Father's house. You are His home as well. He
W1:182.12  is the Voice you hear, and this the Call which cannot be denied. The  holy Child remains with you. His home is yours. Today He gives you
W1:183.1 God's Name is  holy, but no holier than yours. To call upon His Name is but to call
W1:183.5  the nameless for the Name, nor sin for grace, nor bodies for the  holy Son of God.
W1:183.11  things he thought he made be nameless now, and in their place the  holy Name of God becomes his judgment of their worthlessness.
W1:183.12  upon his Father. And his Father's Voice gives answer in his Father's  holy Name. In this eternal, still relationship, in which
W1:184.11  the world of darkness. Yet accept them not as your reality. The  Holy Spirit uses all of them, but He does not forget Creation has One
W1:186.6  cannot tarnish the truth in you, and misery can come not near the  holy home of God.
W1:186.7  on you and not upon this little pile of dust. What can it tell the  holy Son of God? Why need he be concerned with it at all?
W1:187.11  have it be withheld from anything we look upon. And to ensure this  holy sight is ours, we offer it to everything we see. For where we
W1:188.6  by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, become the  holy messengers of God Himself. These thoughts you think with Him.
W1:189.2  the day and watches through the night as silent guardian of your  holy sleep. It sees salvation in you and protects the light in you in
W1:190.5  are. As you perceive the harmlessness in them, they will accept your  holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful now becomes a
W1:190.6 My  holy brothers, think of this awhile—the world you see does nothing.
W1:190.6  the joy of God as what you really want. Your Self is radiant in this  holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, and unchangeable forever and
W1:190.8 Pain is the thought of evil taking form and working havoc in your  holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be free. In
W1:191.6 One  holy thought like this, and you are free: you are the holy Son of God
W1:191.6 One holy thought like this, and you are free: you are the  holy Son of God Himself. And with this holy thought, you learn as
W1:191.6  and you are free: you are the holy Son of God Himself. And with this  holy thought, you learn as well that you have freed the world. You
W1:191.8 I am the  holy Son of God Himself. I cannot suffer, cannot be in pain; I cannot
W1:191.12 Then let the Son of God awaken from his sleep, and opening his  holy eyes return again to bless the world he made. In error it began.
W1:191.13  on you. They die till you accept your own eternal life. You are the  holy Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the world is free.
W1:192.1 It is your Father's  holy will that you complete Himself and that your Self shall be His
W1:192.6  Only forgiveness can restore the peace that God intended for His  holy Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son to look again upon
W1:193.3  no forgiveness, for He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His  holy law of Love be given form in which it could be offered to the
W1:193.4  replace the foolish thoughts which crept into the mind of His most  holy Son with peace and joy fulfills His function now. He redirects
W1:193.9 These are the words the  Holy Spirit speaks in all your tribulations, all your pain, all
W1:193.13  thorn or nail to hurt His sacred Son in any way. He would ensure his  holy rest remain untroubled and serene, without a care in an eternal
W1:194.5  Then is each instant, which was slave to time, transformed into a  holy instant when the light that was kept hidden in God's Son is
W1:196.8  God, Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the  holy mind He never left.
W1:196.12  gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between you and the  holy peace of God. How kind and merciful is the idea we practice!
W1:197.8 Thanks be to you, the  holy Son of God, for as you were created you contain all things
W1:197.9  All that you think can only be His thoughts, sharing with Him the  holy thoughts of God. Earn now the gratitude you have denied yourself
W1:198.8  attack! How mad to think that you could be condemned and that the  holy Son of God can die! The stillness of your Self remains unmoved,
W1:198.12  appears unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the gift the  Holy Spirit holds for you from God your Father. Let today be
W1:198.12  God your Father. Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your  holy home as well. Be kind to both, as you forgive the trespasses you
W1:199.2 The mind that serves the  Holy Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, beyond the laws of
W1:199.4  body disappears because you have no need of it except the need the  Holy Spirit sees. For this, the body will appear as useful form for
W1:199.6 The  Holy Spirit is the home of minds that seek for freedom. In Him they
W1:199.6  it is a worthy servant of the freedom which the mind within the  Holy Spirit seeks.
W1:199.7  believe they are enslaved within a body. Be you free, so that the  Holy Spirit can make use of your escape from bondage to set free the
W1:199.8  you not return your mind to this? Then practice well the thought the  Holy Spirit gives you for today. Your brothers stand released with
W1:R6.2  start our practicing in which we carefully review the thoughts the  Holy Spirit has bestowed on us in our last 20 lessons. Each contains
W1:211.1 [191] I am the  holy Son of God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek
W1:215.1 [195] Love is the way I walk in gratitude. The  Holy Spirit is my only Guide. He walks with me in love. And I give
W2:I.3  will not content ourselves with simple practicing in the remaining  holy instants which conclude the year that we have given God. We say
W2:I.6 I am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we give these  holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to leave the
W2:I.7  keep. We will with You in asking this. The Father and the Son, Whose  holy will created all that is, can fail in nothing. In this
W2:I.8 And so we start upon the final part of this one  holy year which we have spent together in the search for truth and
W2:I.11  slowly read and thought about a little while, preceding one of the  holy and blessed instants in the day. We give the first of these
W2:223.2  see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we who are Your  holy Son are sinless. We would look upon our sinlessness, for guilt
W2:227.1  the feet of truth, to be removed forever from my mind. This is my  holy instant of release. Father, I know my will is one with Yours.
W2:229.1  waited for my coming home that I will turn away no longer from the  holy face of Christ. And what I look upon attests the truth of the
W2:WS.3  go down to dust. And what they hid is now revealed—an altar to the  holy Name of God whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your
W2:WS.4 Let us come daily to this  holy place and spend a while together. Here we share our final dream.
W2:234.1  when dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again the  holy peace we never left. Merely a tiny instant has elapsed between
W2:236.1  in it. My mind can only serve. Today I give its service to the  Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit. I thus direct my mind, which I
W2:248.1  myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the  holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as God created
W2:250.1  of God today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to obscure the  holy light in him and see his strength diminished and reduced to
W2:WIS.5  unchanged. Would you still hold return to Heaven back? How long, oh  holy Son of God, how long?
W2:252.1 My Self is  holy beyond all the thoughts of holiness of which I now conceive. Its
W2:253.1  this world to my creations, children of my Will, in Heaven where my  holy Self abides with them and Him Who has created me.
W2:260.2  Source remembered, and therein we find our true Identity at last.  Holy indeed are we because our Source can know no sin. And we who are
W2:WIB.4  and to help him walk along the road with him. Now is the body  holy. Now it serves to heal the mind that it was made to kill.
W2:262.1  You Who are our Source, eternally united in Your Love, eternally the  holy Son of God.
W2:263.2  remain outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see through  holy vision and the eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to
W2:263.2  and walk together to our Father's house as brothers and the  holy Sons of God.
W2:266.1  to be my saviors and my counselors in sight—the bearers of Your  holy Voice to me. In them are You reflected, and in them does Christ
W2:266.1  Christ look back upon me from my Self. Let not Your Son forget Your  holy Name. Let not Your Son forget his holy Source. Let not Your Son
W2:266.1  Let not Your Son forget Your holy Name. Let not Your Son forget his  holy Source. Let not Your Son forget Your name is his.
W2:266.2  and on our own, acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the  holy Love of God. How many saviors God has given us! How can we lose
W2:269.1  me that what I look upon belongs to me, that nothing is except Your  holy Son.
W2:270.2  through His sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the  holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son whom God created one.
W2:270.2  to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the  holy Son whom God created one.
W2:WIC.1  still abides within the Mind That is His Source. He has not left His  holy home nor lost the innocence in which He was created. He abides
W2:WIC.3 Home of the  Holy Spirit and at home in God alone, does Christ remain at peace
W2:WIC.3  in God alone, does Christ remain at peace within the Heaven of your  holy mind. This is the only part of you that has reality in truth.
W2:WIC.3  dreams be given unto Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your  holy Self, the Christ, to you at last.
W2:WIC.4 The  Holy Spirit reaches from the Christ in you to all your dreams and
W2:WIC.5 And how long will this  holy face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time for
W2:WIC.5  no need of learning or perception or of time, or anything except the  holy Self, the Christ Whom God created as His Son.
W2:276.1 What is the Word of God? “My Son is pure and  holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the Father of the Son He
W2:WIHS.1 The  Holy Spirit mediates between illusions and the truth. As He must
W2:WIHS.2 The goal the  Holy Spirit's teaching sets is just this end of dreams. For sights
W2:WIHS.2  has achieved the only goal it has in truth. For learning, as the  Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the
W2:WIHS.3  from His replacement for the fearful images and dreams you made. The  Holy Spirit understands the means you made, by which you would attain
W2:WIHS.4 From knowledge, where He has been placed by God, the  Holy Spirit calls to you to let forgiveness rest upon your dreams and
W2:WIHS.5  gift. It is a call from Love to Love that it be but itself. The  Holy Spirit is His gift by Which the quietness of Heaven is restored
W2:288.2  you behold your brother in the light of holiness. He cannot be less  holy than can I, and you cannot be holier than he.
W2:WIRW.5 The  Holy Spirit has no need of time when it has served His purpose. Now
W2:293.1  and its effects apparent. All the world shines in reflection of its  holy light, and I perceive a world forgiven at last.
W2:293.2 Father, let not Your  holy world escape my sight today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the
W2:295.2  given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the  Holy Spirit's love to bless all things that I may look upon, that His
W2:296.1 The  Holy Spirit needs my voice today, that all the world may listen to
W2:296.1  I would set it free that I may find escape and hear the Word Your  holy Voice will speak to me today.
W2:296.2  possible of easy reach and quick accomplishment. How gladly does the  Holy Spirit come to rescue us from hell when we allow His teaching to
W2:298.1  thus am I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded on my  holy sight forgiveness takes away. And I draw near the end of
W2:298.2  You are beside me. Certain is Your way. And I am grateful for Your  holy gifts of certain sanctuary and escape from everything that would
W2:298.2  everything that would obscure my love for God, my Father, and His  holy Son.
W2:300.2 We seek Your  holy world today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost our way a
W2:WISC.3 The Second Coming ends the lessons which the  Holy Spirit teaches, making way for the Last Judgment, in which
W2:WISC.5  Let us rejoice that we can do God's Will and join together in its  holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in us, and we can reach our
W2:302.1 Father, our eyes are opening at last. Your  holy world awaits us, as our sight is finally restored and we can
W2:302.1  for fear must disappear when love has come. Let me forgive Your  holy world today that I may look upon its holiness and understand it
W2:303.1 Watch with me, angels; watch with me today. Let all God's  holy thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's Son is
W2:304.1 I can obscure my  holy sight if I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the holy
W2:304.1  my holy sight if I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the  holy sights Christ looks upon unless it is His vision that I use.
W2:304.2  for the world. It is Your gift, my Father, given me to offer to Your  holy Son that he may find again the memory of You and of Your Son as
W2:306.2  we return to You, remembering we never went away, remembering Your  holy gifts to us. In gratitude and thankfulness, we come, with empty

W2:WILJ.5 This is God's Final Judgment: “You are still My  holy Son, forever innocent, forever loving and forever loved, as

W2:326.2  at first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into God's  holy Will.

W2:335.1  my own. And I will see it, having chosen to behold my brother in its  holy light.
W2:340.1  today and for the freedom I am certain it will bring. This day is  holy, for today Your Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For
W2:340.1  to achieve this day and what it holds in joy and freedom for Your  holy Son and for the world he made, which is released along with him
W2:341.1 Father, Your Son is  holy. I am he on whom You smile in love and tenderness so deep and

W2:359.1  have misunderstood all things. But we have not made sinners of the  holy Sons of God. What You created sinless so abides forever and
W2:FL.5 We will not end this year without the gift our Father promised to His  holy Son. We are forgiven now. And we are saved from all the wrath we

Tx:5.35 The Voice of the  Holy Spirit is weak in you. That is why you must share it. It must be
Tx:5.35  by being shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the  Holy Spirit in yourself alone, your meditations will frighten you
Tx:5.36  and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the  Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy
Tx:5.36  the Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the  Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct opposition to the ego's notions,
Tx:5.36  because true and false perceptions are themselves opposed. The  Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the ego has made. He undoes
Tx:5.38 The  Holy Spirit is the Mediator between the interpretations of the ego
Tx:5.38  Understanding is light, and light leads to knowledge. The  Holy Spirit is in light because He is in you who are light, but you
Tx:5.38  but you yourselves do not know this. It is therefore the task of the  Holy Spirit to reinterpret you on behalf of God.

Tx:5.39  It is of this that the Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the  Holy Spirit sees. This vision invariably frightens the ego because it
Tx:5.40 The  Holy Spirit is as vigilant as the ego to the call of danger, opposing
Tx:5.40  His strength, just as the ego welcomes it with all its might. The  Holy Spirit counters this welcome by welcoming peace. Peace and
Tx:5.41 The ego is the symbol of separation, just as the  Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you perceive in others, you
Tx:5.41  strengthening in yourself. You let your mind misperceive, but the  Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The
Tx:5.41  Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The  Holy Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses only what your minds
Tx:5.41  already understand to teach you that you do not understand it. The  Holy Spirit can deal with an unwilling learner without going counter
Tx:5.41  than the ego, even though the ego does not recognize it. The  Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, because it is His own dwelling
Tx:5.42  only in eternity. The ego made the world as it perceives it, but the  Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego made, sees it only as
Tx:5.42  made, sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. The  Holy Spirit must perceive time and reinterpret it into the timeless.
Tx:5.43 The  Holy Spirit must work through opposites, because He must work with

Tx:5.46  can safely fail to acknowledge anything that is true. However, the  Holy Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you
Tx:5.47  of the Kingdom. Nothing good is lost because it comes from the  Holy Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not good was
Tx:5.53  attraction of the parts of the Sonship, which hear the call of the  Holy Spirit to be as One.
Tx:5.54  and the mind which was in me rejoices as you choose to hear it. The  Holy Spirit atones in all of us by undoing and thus lifts the burden
Tx:5.56  at the same level. It is impossible to share opposing thoughts. The  Holy Spirit does not let you forsake your brothers. Therefore, you
Tx:5.57  of God lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the  Holy Spirit is lacking.
Tx:5.59  ego's use of guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the  Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful
Tx:5.59  can be egotistic. The ego's logic is as impeccable as that of the  Holy Spirit, because your mind has all the means at its disposal to
Tx:5.59  appropriate here because, once what you have made is undone by the  Holy Spirit, the blessed residue is restored and therefore continues
Tx:5.67 The  Holy Spirit, like the ego, is a decision. Together they constitute
Tx:5.67  the alternatives which the mind can accept and obey. The ego and the  Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. God created one, and so
Tx:5.73  was in me is in you, for God creates with perfect fairness. Let the  Holy Spirit remind you always of His fairness, and let me teach you
Tx:5.74 The ego speaks in judgment and the  Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, much as the Supreme Court has the
Tx:5.75  wicked shall perish.” There are many others, but if you will let the  Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His own light, they will suffice.
Tx:5.76  the fact that vengeance cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the  Holy Spirit, who will undo it in you because it does not belong in
Tx:5.77  beyond itself. Actually, all the quotation means is that the  Holy Spirit in later generations retains the power to interpret
Tx:5.82  device which will be abolished when it is no longer useful. The  Holy Spirit, Who speaks for God in time, also knows that time is
Tx:5.83  set) on Him,” a statement which means that God's peace is set in the  Holy Spirit because it is fixed on God. It is also fixed in you. You,
Tx:5.85  of the Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The  Holy Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought cannot occur
Tx:5.87 Second, although Freud misinterpreted what the  Holy Spirit told him, or better, reminded him of, he was too honest
Tx:5.95  the following as sincerely as you can, remembering that the  Holy Spirit will respond fully to your slightest invitation:
Tx:5.96  because I want to be at peace. I do not feel guilty, because the  Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I
Tx:6.13  as learners, even though we need not have equal experiences. The  Holy Spirit is glad when you can learn enough from mine to be
Tx:6.14  on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling yourselves to hear the  Holy Spirit in others, you can learn from their experiences and gain
Tx:6.14  from them without experiencing them yourselves. That is because the  Holy Spirit is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to
Tx:6.14  nor was I. You are not asked to repeat my experiences, because the  Holy Spirit, Whom we share, makes this unnecessary. To use my
Tx:6.15  that no perception which is out of accord with the judgment of the  Holy Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show this was true in a
Tx:6.16 Remember that the  Holy Spirit is the communication link between God the Father and His
Tx:6.28  its abilities are directed by the mind which has a better Voice. The  Holy Spirit as well as the ego utilizes projection, but since their

Tx:6.29  for both because it establishes inclusion. Perceiving equality, the  Holy Spirit perceives equal needs. This invites Atonement
Tx:6.31  knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but the  Holy Spirit remains the bridge between perception and knowledge. By
Tx:6.31  that this meeting is impossible, yet it is your perception which the  Holy Spirit guides. You might remember that the human eye perceives
Tx:6.32  other, because they were created neither partially nor in part. The  Holy Spirit enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You can no
Tx:6.32  alone. Prayer is the restatement of inclusion, directed by the  Holy Spirit under the laws of God. God created you to create. You
Tx:6.33  Although perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, and the  Holy Spirit can therefore use it well. He can inspire perception and
Tx:6.34 The  Holy Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. Coming from God, He
Tx:6.34  for good, but He does not believe in what is not true. Since the  Holy Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also be able to believe
Tx:6.34  your minds must also be able to believe only what is true. The  Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for God. He
Tx:6.35  because it can so easily make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the  Holy Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what
Tx:6.36  all of your perceptions into the one parallel line which the  Holy Spirit sees. This line is the direct line of communication with
Tx:6.36  perception, because it means that all perception is guided by the  Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy Spirit can
Tx:6.36  is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the  Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy Spirit is
Tx:6.36  on God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the  Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is true in your
Tx:6.37  difference between the ego's use of projection and projection as the  Holy Spirit uses it is very simple. The ego projects to exclude and
Tx:6.37  simple. The ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The  Holy Spirit projects by recognizing Himself in every mind and thus
Tx:6.37  them as one. Nothing conflicts in this perception, because what the  Holy Spirit perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees Himself,
Tx:6.38  mind forever, but it must shine outward to make you aware of it. The  Holy Spirit was given you with perfect impartiality, and only by
Tx:6.38  impartially can you perceive Him at all. The ego is legion, but the  Holy Spirit is One. No darkness abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but
Tx:6.40 The  Holy Spirit still holds knowledge safe through His impartial
Tx:6.41  you are to be conflict-free yourselves, you must learn only from the  Holy Spirit and teach only by Him. You are only love, but when you
Tx:6.42 The only real safety lies in projecting only the  Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your own
Tx:6.45 Remember that the  Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The ego always speaks
Tx:6.45  it at any moment. If it meant you well, it would be glad, as the  Holy Spirit will be glad when He has brought you home and you no
Tx:6.47  you fully understand one basic fact that the ego does not know. The  Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. Everyone has
Tx:6.47  another and in one way or another and has been answered. Since the  Holy Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which means that
Tx:6.48 The ego cannot hear the  Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the same mind that made
Tx:6.50 Hear then the one answer of the  Holy Spirit to all the questions which the ego raises. You are a
Tx:6.55 That is why the  Holy Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which
Tx:6.55  Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the  Holy Spirit demonstrates does not exist. Fidelity to premises is a
Tx:6.57 Like any good teacher, the  Holy Spirit does know more than you do now, but He teaches only to
Tx:6.60 The  Holy Spirit never itemizes errors because He does not frighten
Tx:6.60  they are frightened, because they do not know the difference. The  Holy Spirit makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them
Tx:6.60  you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and the  Holy Spirit, shining with the light from God Himself, speaks only for
Tx:6.62  It is clearly a separation device and therefore does not exist. The  Holy Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and translates it
Tx:6.63 We have said that the  Holy Spirit is the motivation for miracles. This is because He always
Tx:6.63  By the laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the  Holy Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in miracles. This is
Tx:6.65 The  Holy Spirit, who leads to God, translates communication into being,
Tx:6.65  The insanity of this perception makes it a fearful one indeed. The  Holy Spirit sees the body only as a means of communication and
Tx:6.66  allegiance but always for what each one can get separately. The  Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He never
Tx:6.76  you that it is up to you to decide which voice is true, but the  Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God, and your
Tx:6.76  before that there was help in reminding yourselves to allow the  Holy Spirit to decide for God for you.
Tx:6.77  believe that it is up to you to decide what God's creations are. The  Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is. Therefore, His
Tx:6.81  accepted that is a demonstration of your growing awareness that the  Holy Spirit will lead you on.
Tx:6.82  salvation is critical to the whole Sonship. We said before that the  Holy Spirit is evaluative and must be. Yet His evaluation does not
Tx:6.83 What you must remember, however, is that what the  Holy Spirit rejects, the ego accepts. This is because they are in
Tx:6.83  crucial issue vary, and that is why it promotes different moods. The  Holy Spirit never varies on this point, and so the one mood He
Tx:6.84 The  Holy Spirit does not teach your mind to be critical of other minds,
Tx:6.88  that you can choose either one. By teaching what to choose, the  Holy Spirit will ultimately be able to teach you that you need not
Tx:6.88  direct it towards creation within the Kingdom. Choosing through the  Holy Spirit will lead you to the Kingdom. You create by what you are,
Tx:6.89  step will still be taken for you by God, but by the third step the  Holy Spirit has prepared you for God. He is getting you ready for the
Tx:6.95  second step, but I also told you that the third one follows it. The  Holy Spirit will enable you to go on if you follow Him. Your
Tx:7.6  Him is to share the perfect love He shares with you. To this the  Holy Spirit leads you that your joy may be complete, because the
Tx:7.6  and nothing that is true needs to be explained. However, the  Holy Spirit has the task of translating the useless into the useful,
Tx:7.10  is to correct perception in your brother and yourself by sharing the  Holy Spirit with him. This places you both within the Kingdom and
Tx:7.15  is to change the form so that the original meaning is retained. The  Holy Spirit is the translator of the laws of God to those who do not
Tx:7.17  it cannot be consistent unless it is remembered. That is why the  Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He
Tx:7.22  defeat its purpose. Therefore, it does not really learn at all. The  Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has made to teach the
Tx:7.22  example of the Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The  Holy Spirit has taken very diversified areas of your learning and has
Tx:7.23 You made the effort to learn, and the  Holy Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He adapts the ego's
Tx:7.24  to be no connection, because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the  Holy Spirit teaches one lesson and applies it to all individuals in
Tx:7.30  to question reality is to question meaninglessly. That is why the  Holy Spirit never questions. His sole function is to undo the
Tx:7.34 The  Holy Spirit must work through you to teach you He is in you. This is
Tx:7.34  you are in God, because you are part of Him. The miracles which the  Holy Spirit inspires can have no order of difficulty, because every
Tx:7.34  is God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the  Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the
Tx:7.35 All abilities, then, should be given over to the  Holy Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He can use them only
Tx:7.35  wholeness you learn to remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the  Holy Spirit still knows that your forgetting must be translated into
Tx:7.36  or to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and separate. The  Holy Spirit always seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are
Tx:7.36  seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are healed, because the  Holy Spirit sees no order of healing. Healing is the way to undo the
Tx:7.38  not recognizing its existence in your brothers. This strengthens the  Holy Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge
Tx:7.44 The  Holy Spirit does not work by chance, and healing that is of Him
Tx:7.48  he could not have changed his mind. That is how you perceive the  Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never
Tx:7.48  That is how you perceive the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the  Holy Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He himself must think
Tx:7.54  reciprocal. They make or create, depending on whether the ego or the  Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will return to the mind
Tx:7.60 The  Holy Spirit undoes illusions without attacking them merely because He

Tx:7.61 If you will keep in mind what the  Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God
Tx:7.61  which are not true and would never have been called upon by the  Holy Spirit if you had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that,
Tx:7.64  committed to untruth, perceiving in total contradiction to the  Holy Spirit and to the knowledge of God.
Tx:7.65 You can be perceived with meaning only by the  Holy Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of God. Any belief
Tx:7.68 In this depressing state, the  Holy Spirit reminds you gently that you are sad because you are not
Tx:7.71  because it will be used for attack, but in the service of the  Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of
Tx:7.82  as a way of getting rid of something it does not want. To the  Holy Spirit, it is the fundamental law of sharing by which you give
Tx:7.83 Projection, to the  Holy Spirit, is the law of extension. To the ego, it is the law of
Tx:7.88  the errors as yours, do not keep them. Give them over quickly to the  Holy Spirit to be undone completely so that all their effects will
Tx:7.89 The  Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth
Tx:7.91  is of the Soul, because that is how God created it. The  Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the ego and the
Tx:7.95  unknown to them. Your creations are protected for you, because the  Holy Spirit, Who is in your mind, knows of them and can bring them
Tx:7.100  His Will as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. The  Holy Spirit will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of
Tx:7.100  this goal if he recognized it. The problem is not whether what the  Holy Spirit says is true, but whether you want to listen to what He
Tx:7.101  This confusion is the cause of the whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the  Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up the ego. But you will be
Tx:7.103 The  Holy Spirit always sides with you and with your strength. As long as
Tx:7.103  then, can this decision mean except that you want to be fearful? The  Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the ego always does. When
Tx:7.104  of this decision is confusion, this is hardly surprising.] The  Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God Himself trusts
Tx:7.107 The  Holy Spirit will always guide you truly, because your joy is His.
Tx:7.110  has become the perfect teacher, because he has learned it of the  Holy Spirit, Who wants to teach him everything He knows. When a mind
Tx:8.8  confused and totally confusing. Even if you could disregard the  Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you could learn
Tx:8.11  freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The  Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of God,
Tx:8.11  a Son of God, knowing that the will of the Son is the Father's. The  Holy Spirit leads you steadily along the path of freedom, teaching
Tx:8.12 We said before that the  Holy Spirit teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is
Tx:8.15 To what else except all power and glory can the  Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is
Tx:8.17  be forced upon you, being an experience of total willingness. The  Holy Spirit knows how to teach this, but you do not. That is why you
Tx:8.18  of extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the  Holy Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means
Tx:8.20  find them in yourself, because it does not know where to look. The  Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only at yourself, you cannot
Tx:8.23  from them. The ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The  Holy Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you.
Tx:8.41 The ego's way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The  Holy Spirit has one direction for all minds, and the one He taught me
Tx:8.54 Remember that the  Holy Spirit interprets the body only as a means of communication.
Tx:8.54  Being the communication link between God and His separated Sons, the  Holy Spirit interprets everything you have made in the light of what
Tx:8.54  in the light of what He is. The ego separates through the body. The  Holy Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not perceive your
Tx:8.54  through it to others. You do not perceive your brothers as the  Holy Spirit does, because you do not interpret their bodies and yours
Tx:8.55  is. This is God's way of making unlimited what you have limited. The  Holy Spirit does not see the body as you do, because He knows the
Tx:8.56  put yours. If the body becomes for you a means which you give to the  Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you will not
Tx:8.56  already done so by misusing it. Interpret anything apart from the  Holy Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred
Tx:8.61  to be ruled by chaos. Guided by the ego, it is. Guided by the  Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a means by which the part of
Tx:8.61  return to the Soul. The ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the  Holy Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In
Tx:8.74  call upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, nor does the  Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the Holy
Tx:8.74  the Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the  Holy Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The
Tx:8.76  endless prescriptions for avoiding catastrophic outcomes. The  Holy Spirit, perfectly aware of the same data, does not bother to
Tx:8.78  listen. It cannot be louder without violating your will, which the  Holy Spirit seeks to free but never to command.
Tx:8.79 The  Holy Spirit teaches you to use your body only to reach your brothers,
Tx:8.79  heal you. Everything used in accordance with its function as the  Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. Everything used otherwise is. Do
Tx:8.79  is the natural state of anything whose interpretation is left to the  Holy Spirit, Who perceives no attack on anything. Health is the
Tx:8.80 We once said that the  Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to everything, because He
Tx:8.80  its questions. When the ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the  Holy Spirit to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the
Tx:8.80  that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the  Holy Spirit teach you the right perception of the body, for
Tx:8.82  what joining means if you are sleeping under its guidance. Yet the  Holy Spirit, too, has use for sleep and can use dreams on behalf of
Tx:8.83  did you place it? Whenever you wake dispiritedly, it was not of the  Holy Spirit. Only when you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep
Tx:8.84  to love, since all healing involves replacing fear with love. The  Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of error, for if He
Tx:8.94  process can only be what you think you lose. Yet it is only what the  Holy Spirit sees that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many
Tx:8.94  that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many times that the  Holy Spirit will never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if
Tx:8.94  anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of yourselves, the  Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not God's Will because it is
Tx:8.95  this is precisely what you will ask for. You may insist that the  Holy Spirit does not answer you, but it might be wiser to consider
Tx:8.98  but it is still true that they do not want them. Can you ask the  Holy Spirit for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive
Tx:8.98  for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive them? [The  Holy Spirit is totally incapable of giving you anything that does not
Tx:8.100 When you ask the  Holy Spirit for what would hurt you, He cannot answer, because
Tx:8.100  not a request. It is merely a denial in the form of a request. The  Holy Spirit is not concerned with form at all, being aware only of
Tx:8.100  form at all, being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the  Holy Spirit for anything because there is complete communication
Tx:8.100  failure between them. Yet you can ask for everything of the  Holy Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would
Tx:8.100  Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would the  Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? And could He fail to recognize it
Tx:8.108 Let us suppose, then, that what you request of the  Holy Spirit is what you really want, but you are still afraid of it.
Tx:8.109  be true if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the  Holy Spirit for anything will ensure a response. Yet it is equally
Tx:8.109  a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response given by the  Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. It is
Tx:8.110  in me whose faith in you cannot be shaken. Can you ask of the  Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his words are true
Tx:8.111  about him determines the message you receive. Remember that the  Holy Spirit is in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What
Tx:8.112 Salvation is of your brother. The  Holy Spirit extends from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot
Tx:8.112  in you unless you extend it. You will not trust the guidance of the  Holy Spirit or believe that it is for you unless you hear it in
Tx:8.113  me. Knowing what you are, I cannot doubt you. I hear only the  Holy Spirit in you, who speaks to me through you. If you would hear
Tx:8.118 You can ask of the  Holy Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can give to Him
Tx:9.1  to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance the  Holy Spirit would have you maintain. Egos are critical in terms of
Tx:9.1  understand this kind of sense because it is sensible to them. To the  Holy Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and
Tx:9.3  of your brother's ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the  Holy Spirit does not perceive his errors. This must be true if there
Tx:9.3  be true if there is no communication at all between the ego and the  Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not
Tx:9.3  between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the  Holy Spirit does not attempt to understand anything that arises from
Tx:9.4 When you react at all to errors, you are not listening to the  Holy Spirit. He has merely disregarded them, and if you attend to
Tx:9.5  them, you are accepting yours. If you want to give yours over to the  Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless this becomes the one
Tx:9.7  and keep it, see only truth beside you, for you walk together. The  Holy Spirit in you forgives all things in you and in your brother.
Tx:9.7  the ego. Correction is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The  Holy Spirit forgives everything, because God created everything.
Tx:9.11  which is given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The  Holy Spirit merely reminds you of what is your natural ability. By
Tx:9.11  in its judgment. All their helpfulness lies in the judgment of the  Holy Spirit.
Tx:9.14 Forgiveness through the  Holy Spirit lies simply in looking beyond error from the beginning
Tx:9.14  order to be forgiven. What has no effect does not exist, and to the  Holy Spirit, the effects of error are totally non-existent. By
Tx:9.23  as unhelpful as the older ones, because form does not matter to the  Holy Spirit and therefore does not matter at all. According to the
Tx:9.23  is equated with the mind, the mind's corrective power through the  Holy Spirit is denied.
Tx:9.28  not of him. Yet, being for him, it must also be for his patient. The  Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He makes healing perfectly clear
Tx:9.29 As you awaken other minds to the  Holy Spirit through Him and not yourself, you will understand that
Tx:9.31 How can you become increasingly aware of the  Holy Spirit in you except by His effects? You cannot see Him with
Tx:9.32 It seems to you that the  Holy Spirit does not produce joy consistently in you only because you
Tx:9.35  are not yet awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply the  Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you
Tx:9.40 It is perfectly obvious that if the  Holy Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, He looks with love
Tx:9.41  ego is deceived by everything you do, even when you respond to the  Holy Spirit, because at such times its confusion increases. The ego
Tx:9.44  from beyond it, because, within it, its foundation does stand. The  Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's thought system
Tx:9.44  not true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it means anything. The  Holy Spirit judges every belief you hold in terms of where it comes
Tx:9.56  What good can come of it? And if no good can come of it, the  Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of
Tx:9.58  it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely is. Ask the  Holy Spirit what it is and He will tell you, but do not be afraid of
Tx:9.66  with neither? You do not remember being awake. When you hear the  Holy Spirit, you merely feel better because loving seems possible to
Tx:9.69  this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the  Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge
Tx:9.91  is the recognition that his brother can do it. It is a call to the  Holy Spirit in his mind, a call to Him which is strengthened by this
Tx:10.12  is merely because it is yours. You do not know what it is, but the  Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will
Tx:10.12  be too often repeated that you do not know it. Whenever what the  Holy Spirit tells you appears to be coercive, it is only because you
Tx:10.15 You are asked to trust the  Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God,
Tx:10.19  whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of the  Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far
Tx:10.20 The  Holy Spirit cannot speak to an unwelcoming host because He will not
Tx:10.22  is not real freedom, for it still depends on how you see it. The  Holy Spirit is there, although He cannot help you without your
Tx:10.53 The ego analyzes; the  Holy Spirit accepts. The appreciation of wholeness comes only through
Tx:10.73  because it is His Will to be known. The real world is all that the  Holy Spirit has saved for you out of what you have made, and to
Tx:10.75  what you perceive, for its meaning is lost to you. Yet the  Holy Spirit has saved its meaning for you, and if you will let Him
Tx:10.80  than to be told very clearly that if you ask you will receive. The  Holy Spirit will answer every specific problem as long as you believe
Tx:10.81  that asking is taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. The  Holy Spirit will give you only what is yours and will take nothing in
Tx:10.81  and you share it with God. This is its reality. Would the  Holy Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting
Tx:10.82  the question. You have believed that to ask for guidance of the  Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do
Tx:10.87  and are condemning God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the  Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against himself and
Tx:10.90  only in yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the  Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you
Tx:11.6  him your help, and you will not perceive God's answer to you. The  Holy Spirit does not need your help in interpreting motivation, but
Tx:11.9  the recognition is necessary to demonstrate the need for escape. The  Holy Spirit must still translate it into truth. If you were left with
Tx:11.13  it, for the awareness of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the  Holy Spirit replace fear with love and translate error into truth.
Tx:11.22  it, for to lay aside means to judge against. If you will look, the  Holy Spirit will judge and will judge truly. He cannot shine away
Tx:11.23  and carefully planned program aimed at learning how to offer to the  Holy Spirit everything you do not want. He knows what to do with it.
Tx:11.35  your investment in the world as you have projected it, allowing the  Holy Spirit to project the real world to you from the altar of God.
Tx:11.39  to find is hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would keep? The  Holy Spirit offers you another promise, and one that will lead to
Tx:11.40  within yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the  Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He will guide you to your home
Tx:11.42  awaits only the recognition that you have been redeemed. The  Holy Spirit guides you into life eternal, but you must relinquish
Tx:11.53  to teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The  Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and there is no
Tx:11.54 The  Holy Spirit is your strength because He perceives nothing but your
Tx:11.55  the world real unto yourself, for the real world is the gift of the  Holy Spirit, and so it belongs to you.
Tx:11.57 The  Holy Spirit keeps the vision of Christ for every Son of God who
Tx:11.57  in himself. For reality is one with the Father and the Son, and the  Holy Spirit blesses the real world in Their Name.
Tx:11.58  to you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the  Holy Spirit will lead everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits
Tx:11.59  which He knows because He knows His Father's love for Him. When the  Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father,
Tx:11.61  will radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to everyone the  Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child of God His
Tx:11.63 The  Holy Spirit is invisible, but you can see the results of His
Tx:11.63  and mass, of prediction and control is transcended, for what the  Holy Spirit enables you to do is clearly beyond all of them.
Tx:11.64 You cannot see the  Holy Spirit, but you can see His manifestations. And unless you do,
Tx:11.64  is healing. God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the  Holy Spirit shares His with you on earth.
Tx:11.66 I am the manifestation of the  Holy Spirit, and when you see me, it will be because you have invited
Tx:11.73  for judgment is not your function. If it is the judgment of the  Holy Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His function. You
Tx:11.79  true became invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for the  Holy Spirit sees it with perfect clarity. It is invisible to you
Tx:11.79  is up to you to decide what reality is. What can be seen is what the  Holy Spirit sees. The definition of reality is God's, not yours. He
Tx:11.82 Everything you made has never been and is invisible because the  Holy Spirit does not see it. Yet what He does see is yours to behold,
Tx:11.82  and truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The  Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees nothing else in you. What is
Tx:11.89 Long ago we said that the  Holy Spirit shares the goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim
Tx:11.89  themselves unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they know. The  Holy Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His
Tx:11.92  he sees will never touch him, for although he believes in it, the  Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end
Tx:11.92  he believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The  Holy Spirit stands at the end of time, where you must be because He
Tx:11.99  guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The  Holy Spirit dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it
Tx:12.10  full extent. You may also think that it would be easy enough for the  Holy Spirit to show it to you and dispel it, without the need for you
Tx:12.13  it, and the whole world you think you control would vanish. The  Holy Spirit, then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would
Tx:12.19  your love, or you will be hiding a dark place in your mind where the  Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His
Tx:12.29  which makes the encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The  Holy Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter
Tx:12.30 The  Holy Spirit interprets time's purpose as rendering the need for it
Tx:12.31  time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for like the  Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its own. The
Tx:12.31  can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in time, while the  Holy Spirit would release you from it. It is His interpretation of
Tx:12.44 The  Holy Spirit is the light in which Christ stands revealed. And all who
Tx:12.44  they looked upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as the  Holy Spirit sees them. And with this vision of the truth in them came
Tx:12.67  happy dreams of love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the  Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams, where all perception is.
Tx:12.68  are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a world? Without the  Holy Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet because of Him, the answer
Tx:12.70 Only the  Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He will give you all things that
Tx:12.73 The  Holy Spirit leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go? What
Tx:12.75  restore to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The  Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is
Tx:13.1 All therapy is release from the past. That is why the  Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not
Tx:13.2  at its loftiest is never complete. Even the perception of the  Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in
Tx:13.4 Apart from the Father and the Son, the  Holy Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, being in
Tx:13.7  and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God through the  Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit knows your part in
Tx:13.7  the Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The  Holy Spirit knows your part in the redemption and who are seeking you
Tx:13.14  of everything you cherish, for it is the means by which the  Holy Spirit can separate the false and the true, which you have
Tx:13.16  of God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the  Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for
Tx:13.21  are holy and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the  Holy Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure. [If you displace
Tx:13.21  which makes them pure. [If you displace your guilt upon them, the  Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting for your own ends
Tx:13.25  learn that guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The  Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were real,
Tx:13.26 The  Holy Spirit does not keep illusions in your mind to frighten you and
Tx:13.26  is gone. Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The  Holy Spirit does what God would have Him do and has always done so.
Tx:13.29  not in the Mind of God where you are. And this is reason, which the  Holy Spirit would restore to you. He would remove only illusions. All
Tx:13.38  of sharing while you still remember the results of not sharing. The  Holy Spirit points quietly to the contrast, knowing that you will
Tx:13.39  minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the  Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and
Tx:13.39  He is invariable as the peace in which you dwell and of which the  Holy Spirit reminds you.
Tx:13.40  you realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not the  Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The
Tx:13.41  They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The  Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the
Tx:13.42  flows to you from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The  Holy Spirit will teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to
Tx:13.43 God willed you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The  Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven
Tx:13.43  to save. It will not be possible to exempt yourself from what the  Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His
Tx:13.45 The  Holy Spirit cannot fail to undo for you everything you have learned
Tx:13.45  substitute for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto peace. The  Holy Spirit has a very different kind of reconciliation in His Mind
Tx:13.46  Him you cannot wander, and there is no possibility that the plan the  Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone will not
Tx:13.47  you have the means for learning it and seeing it quite clearly. The  Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the ego, except
Tx:13.47  us now turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the  Holy Spirit teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth
Tx:13.50  touched, and your dream is sacred to you. That is why God placed the  Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream.
Tx:13.52 Any direction which will lead you where the  Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He
Tx:13.53 The  Holy Spirit, therefore, must begin His teaching by showing you what
Tx:13.54 The  Holy Spirit needs a happy learner in whom His mission can be happily
Tx:13.54  must first recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The  Holy Spirit cannot teach without this contrast, for you believe that
Tx:13.56 The  Holy Spirit, seeing where you are but knowing you are elsewhere,
Tx:13.57  they are kings with golden crowns because of them. All this the  Holy Spirit sees and teaches simply that all this is not true. To
Tx:13.57  and delude themselves into believing that it is not nothing, the  Holy Spirit says, with steadfast quietness:
Tx:13.59 Like you, the  Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He
Tx:13.61  learner, you must give everything that you have learned over to the  Holy Spirit to be unlearned for you. And then begin to learn the
Tx:13.68  the crucifixion and the resurrection, between the ego and the  Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the
Tx:13.68  the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the  Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of decision is
Tx:13.70  darkness has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the  Holy Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy
Tx:13.72  himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the  Holy Spirit would gladly offer him.
Tx:13.74  of value. Yet because they do not understand their will, the  Holy Spirit quietly understands it for them and gives them what they
Tx:13.76  Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the  Holy Spirit everything and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel.
Tx:13.77  would define what salvation is and what you would be saved from. The  Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from guilt. You have
Tx:13.77  against this strange distortion of the purity of the Son of God, the  Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong protector of your
Tx:13.80 Say to the  Holy Spirit only, “Decide for me,” and it is done. For His decisions
Tx:13.80  cannot know when all knowledge lies behind every decision which the  Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach
Tx:13.92  in summer. Only your own volition seems to make deciding hard. The  Holy Spirit will not delay at all in answering your every question
Tx:14.3  God. It does not teach you what you are or what your Father is. The  Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely teaches you how to
Tx:14.4  unlike the way he sees himself. God can communicate only to the  Holy Spirit in your mind because only He shares the knowledge of what
Tx:14.4  only He shares the knowledge of what you are with God. And only the  Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what God is.
Tx:14.5  nothing of value here and everything of value there. Listen to the  Holy Spirit and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is
Tx:14.14  aim. It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The  Holy Spirit sees only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would
Tx:14.17 The quiet light in which the  Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness in which
Tx:14.20  you have made for breaking your communication with your Father. The  Holy Spirit reinterprets it as a means of reestablishing what has not
Tx:14.21  maker. You who made it are but expressing conflict, from which the  Holy Spirit would release you. Leave what you would communicate to
Tx:14.28  not defend itself. Defense is of your making. God knows it not. The  Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth only because you made
Tx:14.29  you made, must be gently turned to your own good, translated by the  Holy Spirit from means of self-destruction to means of preservation
Tx:14.30 The  Holy Spirit asks of you but this—bring to Him every secret you have
Tx:14.31  one purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which the  Holy Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to your mind with
Tx:14.32  let all that would hide your glory be brought to the judgment of the  Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for glory is saved
Tx:14.34  do know God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the  Holy Spirit shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting
Tx:14.34  holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the  Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that
Tx:14.43  to see no one can fail to understand. It is the message that the  Holy Spirit is holding to the mirror that is in him. He recognizes it
Tx:14.50  you have no basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the  Holy Spirit teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that
Tx:14.55  you hold is for yourself. If you would remember your Father, let the  Holy Spirit order your thoughts and give only the answer with which
Tx:14.56 As God communicates to the  Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit translate His
Tx:14.56 As God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the  Holy Spirit translate His communications through you so you can
Tx:14.56  for all. Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from the  Holy Spirit is nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a
Tx:14.56  interpretation you would lay upon a brother is senseless. Let the  Holy Spirit show him to you and teach you both his love and need for
Tx:14.63  this in one form or another. And each bright lesson, with which the  Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide,
Tx:14.68  with certain aspects of your lives alone that the guidance of the  Holy Spirit is limited. Thus would you make Him undependable and use
Tx:14.69 Do you think that what the  Holy Spirit would have you give He would withhold from you? You have
Tx:14.73  not upon the ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The  Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for
Tx:15.2  Spirit's teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the  Holy Spirit uses time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is
Tx:15.2  uses time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, like the  Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the
Tx:15.2  teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the  Holy Spirit the goal is life, which has no end.
Tx:15.8 The  Holy Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego
Tx:15.8  from understanding the present, because you are afraid of it. The  Holy Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell.
Tx:15.8  leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the  Holy Spirit, Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by
Tx:15.9 The  Holy Spirit would undo all of this now. Fear is not of the present
Tx:15.12  “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a time to the  Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need
Tx:15.13 You will never give this holy instant to the  Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to give
Tx:15.13  attest to your willingness to be released and to offer time to the  Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an instant? It is as short
Tx:15.13  are enslaved by time and thus make time their friend for them. The  Holy Spirit gives their blessed instant to you through your giving
Tx:15.15 Time is your friend if you leave it to the  Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore God's whole
Tx:15.15  perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the  Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you to Him.
Tx:15.16  For unless God is bound, you cannot be. An instant offered to the  Holy Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, and in that instant you
Tx:15.16  the blessed instant, you will let go all your past learning, and the  Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What
Tx:15.19  Yet they are far stronger and much more compelling witnesses for the  Holy Spirit. And they support His strength. It is, therefore, your
Tx:15.19  It is, therefore, your choice whether they support the ego or the  Holy Spirit in you. And you will know which you have chosen by their
Tx:15.19  by their reactions. A Son of God who has been released through the  Holy Spirit in a brother, if the release is complete, is always
Tx:15.19  of this, you have not given one single instant completely to the  Holy Spirit. For when you have, you will be sure you have. You will
Tx:15.20  until you hear one witness whom you have wholly released through the  Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The holy instant has
Tx:15.25 There is no doubt about what your function is, for the  Holy Spirit knows what it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude,
Tx:15.26  to the ego or host to God?” Let this question be asked you by the  Holy Spirit in you every time you make a decision. For every decision
Tx:15.27  for hell and will bring you awareness of what you decided for. The  Holy Spirit can hold your magnitude, clean of all littleness, clearly
Tx:15.48  perfect. In His function as Interpreter of what you have made, the  Holy Spirit uses special relationships, which you have chosen to
Tx:15.49 The  Holy Spirit knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you
Tx:15.50  which you would substitute for another has not been offered to the  Holy Spirit for His use. There is no substitute for love. If you
Tx:15.52  special relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the  Holy Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the
Tx:15.53  have built by which to judge your brothers. Once this is gone, the  Holy Spirit substitutes His frame of reference for it. His frame of
Tx:15.54  you have been told to offer miracles as Christ directs and let the  Holy Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the holy
Tx:15.62  the light behind it can have faith in love without fear. Yet the  Holy Spirit gives you this faith because He offered it to me and I
Tx:15.62  instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the  Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that
Tx:15.69  chain that binds the Son of God to guilt, and it is this chain the  Holy Spirit would remove from his holy mind. For the chain of
Tx:15.69  closely at the relationships which the ego contrives and let the  Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you will
Tx:15.75  will feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the  Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate.
Tx:15.75  Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. The  Holy Spirit cannot teach through fear. And how can He communicate
Tx:15.79 The holy instant does not replace the need for learning, for the  Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the holy instant
Tx:15.83 The  Holy Spirit is God's attempt to free you of what He does not
Tx:15.83  And because of the Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The  Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He would teach you
Tx:15.84 The  Holy Spirit knows that it is not understandable, and yet He
Tx:15.85  limit your perception of your brothers to the body, so would the  Holy Spirit release your vision and let you see the Great Rays
Tx:15.89 If you would but let the  Holy Spirit tell you of the love of God for you and the need your
Tx:15.90  vision of God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the  Holy Spirit must undo to set him free. For his belief in limits has
Tx:15.91  and your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the  Holy Spirit teach you how to use the body only for purposes of
Tx:15.92  my birth into the world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the  Holy Spirit teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him.
Tx:15.103 This Christmas, give the  Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let yourself be healed
Tx:15.111 I give you to the  Holy Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will be released,
Tx:16.1  suffering is shared. The capacity to empathize is very useful to the  Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His way is very
Tx:16.2  this you may be sure—if you will merely sit quietly by and let the  Holy Spirit relate through you, you will empathize with strength and
Tx:16.7  conflict because they contain an element of specialness. Only the  Holy Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He
Tx:16.13  Sonship as one has been made. When you have made this joining as the  Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to use as He knows
Tx:16.14  Yet this is your position. You would have perfect faith in the  Holy Spirit and in the effects of His teaching if you were not afraid
Tx:16.19  that makes for happiness. You have never given any problem to the  Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. You
Tx:16.25 Your teaching has already done this, for the  Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither God nor
Tx:16.25  of the Self you do not know. And they communicate to you through the  Holy Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their creation
Tx:16.41  more forget the truth in you than you can fail to remember it. The  Holy Spirit is the bridge to Him, made from your willingness to unite
Tx:16.47  There can be no disagreement on this, because both the ego and the  Holy Spirit accept it. They are, however, in complete disagreement on
Tx:16.47  disagreement on what completion is and how it is accomplished. The  Holy Spirit knows that completion lies first in union and then in the
Tx:16.60  be unable to find you and comfort you. There is a way in which the  Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The holy instant is
Tx:16.69 The  Holy Spirit asks only this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts
Tx:16.75 Against the ego's insane notion of salvation, the  Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the
Tx:16.75  Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the  Holy Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses opposites to
Tx:16.76  will not attempt this long. In the holy instant, the power of the  Holy Spirit will prevail because you joined Him. The illusions you
Tx:16.77  His Son will always be exactly as he was created. And everything the  Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have received what
Tx:17.7  you will see the Son of God. You will behold the beauty which the  Holy Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the Father for. He
Tx:17.13  trembling with readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the  Holy Spirit to give you this is so intense He would not wait,
Tx:17.19  of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can the  Holy Spirit bring His interpretation of the body as a means of
Tx:17.21 The  Holy Spirit wills only to make His resolutions complete and perfect,
Tx:17.23 This is the only part of the relationship the  Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is true. You have
Tx:17.28  yet it is possible to make happy. We have said repeatedly that the  Holy Spirit would not deprive you of your special relationships but
Tx:17.29  the special relationship was the ego's answer to the creation of the  Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the
Tx:17.30  system which the ego evolved to protect the separation from the  Holy Spirit was in response to the gift with which God blessed it and
Tx:17.30  within itself the truth about everything. And the truth is that the  Holy Spirit is in close relationship with you because in Him is your
Tx:17.30  to you. The relationship with Him has never been broken because the  Holy Spirit has not been separate from anyone since the separation.
Tx:17.44  it was. This is the first result of offering the relationship to the  Holy Spirit to use for His purposes.
Tx:17.45 This invitation is accepted immediately, and the  Holy Spirit wastes no time in introducing the practical results of
Tx:17.48  that the rewards of faith are being introduced. If you believed the  Holy Spirit was there to accept the relationship, why would you now
Tx:17.53 You undertook together to invite the  Holy Spirit into your relationship. He could not have entered
Tx:17.61  for the ego believes the situation brings the experience. The  Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the goal determines it and
Tx:17.62  Where the goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The  Holy Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the
Tx:17.72  [Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room for truth.] When the  Holy Spirit changed the purpose of your relationship by exchanging
Tx:17.75 This simple courtesy is all the  Holy Spirit asks of you. Let truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon
Tx:18.1  perceive at once how much at variance this is with the goal the  Holy Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute
Tx:18.2 The  Holy Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one
Tx:18.2  Where the ego perceives one person as a replacement for another, the  Holy Spirit sees them joined and indivisible. He does not judge
Tx:18.2  separate. Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the  Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything seems to come between the
Tx:18.8  dwells the living God you never left and Who never left you. The  Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your
Tx:18.9  entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant truth to which the  Holy Spirit has committed your relationship. Let Him bring it here,
Tx:18.20 The  Holy Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and
Tx:18.20  your dreams of fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the  Holy Spirit does in your special relationship. He does not destroy it
Tx:18.21  all who come within your sight. Through it, the blessing which the  Holy Spirit has laid upon it will be extended. Think not that He has
Tx:18.23  special relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship, the  Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of happy
Tx:18.32  that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to give the  Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the ego unto Him
Tx:18.45  it is still a special relationship. Yet it is very useful to the  Holy Spirit, Who has a special function here. It will become the
Tx:18.46  relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the  Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him exchange
Tx:18.48  it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the  Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and keep us both in
Tx:18.52  function of the body, it cannot change its function from what the  Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The body was not made by love. Yet
Tx:18.69  activity of the body ceases to demand attention. Into this place the  Holy Spirit comes and there abides. He will remain when you forget
Tx:18.84  the little thought that seems split off and separate, which the  Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and needs no
Tx:18.85  Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the  Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in which you set it
Tx:18.87  Yet God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the  Holy Spirit through seeming terror, trusting Him not to abandon you
Tx:19.2  And he is healed because you offered faith to him, giving him to the  Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand your ego would make
Tx:19.2  make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision does the  Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has given it, and so He
Tx:19.15  your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith help the  Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden which He
Tx:19.27  perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, not error. The  Holy Spirit cannot punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and would
Tx:19.28  help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the  Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this
Tx:19.38  placed before it. This will you do, for nothing undertaken with the  Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of nothing you
Tx:19.38  of nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the  Holy Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting-place where you will
Tx:19.39  are looking where He is and not apart from Him. You cannot see the  Holy Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. And the light in
Tx:19.39  there for seeing then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the  Holy Spirit will gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have
Tx:19.43  purpose apart from each other nor apart from the one you asked the  Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall away so
Tx:19.46  settle briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose now. Before the  Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to have a mighty
Tx:19.53 The  Holy Spirit has given you love's messengers to send instead of those
Tx:19.54 If you send forth only the messengers the  Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see
Tx:19.54  cannot ask love's messengers to remove from it and see it still. The  Holy Spirit has given you His messengers to send to each other and
Tx:19.62  suffer. Is it a sacrifice to be removed from what can suffer? The  Holy Spirit does not demand you sacrifice the hope of the body's
Tx:19.62  can it bring you fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the  Holy Spirit asks, and this He would remove.
Tx:19.68 Your little part is but to give the  Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He
Tx:19.73  invested is given by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the  Holy Spirit both recognize this, and both also recognize that here
Tx:19.73  also recognize that here the sender and receiver are the same. The  Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for it would
Tx:19.76  and what is offered must also be received to be truly given. For the  Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving from the
Tx:19.76  the Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the  Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is sent
Tx:19.77 To you in whose special relationship the  Holy Spirit entered, it is given to release and be released from the
Tx:19.86  you. Your newborn purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the  Holy Spirit, and protected by God Himself. It needs not your
Tx:19.94  And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace and drive the  Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence of the quiet recognition
Tx:19.102  each of you is one who offers you the chalice of Atonement, for the  Holy Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or accept
Tx:19.106  not separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the  Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer
Tx:19.106  for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer to the  Holy Spirit this same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in
Tx:20.11  of illusion that God Himself could give. For what God gave the  Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto you for his
Tx:20.22  a purpose, but he will not remain before the shining light the  Holy Spirit offered and you accepted. For there the stranger is made
Tx:20.28  power at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the  Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He gives no power
Tx:20.28  and misery and pain. These things have not occurred because the  Holy Spirit sees them not and gives no power to their seeming source.
Tx:20.28  keep you free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the  Holy Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already given and
Tx:20.29  And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in giving, as the  Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of God
Tx:20.35  one function that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the  Holy Spirit will not arrange for you without your effort.
Tx:20.41  is as little use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as the  Holy Spirit teaches, it has no function, for minds need not the body
Tx:20.44 Be comforted and feel the  Holy Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence in what
Tx:20.49  in its idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for here love cannot enter. The  Holy Spirit does not build His temples where love can never be. Would
Tx:20.51  have escaped the body. Where you are the body cannot enter, for the  Holy Spirit has set His temple there.
Tx:20.54  true relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The  Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will endure forever.
Tx:20.60 To obtain the goal, the  Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the means as
Tx:20.65  body is the sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the  Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy
Tx:20.69  for it with real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the  Holy Spirit and at one with Him on what salvation is. Be willing,
Tx:20.70 The  Holy Spirit guarantees that what God willed and gave you shall be
Tx:20.70  of destruction be preferred and chosen to replace the holy home the  Holy Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you?
Tx:20.76  at all or merely judged against. Vision is the means by which the  Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into happy dreams; your wild
Tx:21.13  relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you offer to the  Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very little on
Tx:21.17  decide for God for you. This is the little gift you offer to the  Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by
Tx:21.22 The  Holy Spirit can give you faith in holiness and vision to see it
Tx:21.29  from the accepted purpose of the relationship. And that is why the  Holy Spirit must change its purpose to make it useful to Him and
Tx:21.32  the means by which the goal of holiness is reached. Through them the  Holy Spirit leads you to the real world and away from all illusions
Tx:21.34 The  Holy Spirit has a use for all the means for sin by which you sought
Tx:21.34  you might choose among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The  Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision
Tx:21.37 Those who believe in sin must think the  Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their
Tx:21.37  this is how they think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the  Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no
Tx:21.39 Think you the  Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what it is His
Tx:21.41 The  Holy Spirit will never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will
Tx:21.46 There is no inconsistency in what the  Holy Spirit teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have
Tx:21.53  you now, being eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the  Holy Spirit can abide and where He is. He must have been there since
Tx:21.66  in order to escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the  Holy Spirit still holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness.
Tx:21.82  asks if you are willing to exchange the world of sin for what the  Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the world of sin denies. And
Tx:22.20  Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was given to the  Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can
Tx:22.26  has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the  Holy Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the
Tx:22.46  Belief in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the  Holy Spirit offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For sin
Tx:22.52  Yet even in this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the  Holy Spirit waits in gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He
Tx:22.56  laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the  Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His means must
Tx:22.58  and only this.] Accept this one and serve it willingly, for what the  Holy Spirit does with the gifts you give each other, to whom He
Tx:22.63  conclude because you can attack you must be different. Yet does the  Holy Spirit explain this differently. Because you are not different,
Tx:23.16  everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the  Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never be disturbed.
Tx:23.50  and the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the  Holy Spirit understand how to increase your little gifts and make
Tx:24.15  you really are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the  Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which
Tx:24.52  of God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the  Holy Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see
Tx:25.8  may reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son and  Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth.
Tx:25.8  understanding in the part of you that shares His Father's Will. The  Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate,
Tx:25.9 The  Holy Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your mind, so that the aim of
Tx:25.17 The  Holy Spirit is the frame God set around the part of Him that you
Tx:25.21  and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And give the  Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing
Tx:25.30  must have been wrong. And thus is change made possible. The  Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change.
Tx:25.47  is the only function meaningful in time. It is the means the  Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation.
Tx:25.49 The  Holy Spirit needs your special function that His may be fulfilled.
Tx:25.49  salvation easily and well. The Son of God can make no choice the  Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against himself. Only
Tx:25.50 And if the  Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon yourself
Tx:25.54 The  Holy Spirit has the power to change the whole foundation of the world
Tx:25.61  the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the  Holy Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your
Tx:25.63 The  Holy Spirit can use all that you give to Him for your salvation. But
Tx:25.68  that their own belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the  Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They are unjust
Tx:25.69  they think the loss of sin a curse. And flee [the blessing of] the  Holy Spirit as if He were a messenger from hell sent from above in
Tx:25.74 As specialness cares not who pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the  Holy Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence at last, provided it is
Tx:25.74  if he sees truly. Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the  Holy Spirit ask if he will be that one, so justice may return to love
Tx:25.75  unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you give the  Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given you!
Tx:25.77  for His holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the  Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special function shows you nothing
Tx:25.80 Be certain any answer to a problem the  Holy Spirit solves will always be one in which no one loses. And this
Tx:25.80  it greater, harder to resolve, and more unfair. It is impossible the  Holy Spirit could see unfairness as a resolution. To Him, what is
Tx:25.82  but as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the  Holy Spirit gives.
Tx:25.84  gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the  Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you want it solved. To keep
Tx:26.6  its reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice nor keep the  Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been lost.
Tx:26.10 It is not difficult to understand the reasons why you do not ask the  Holy Spirit to solve all problems for you. He has not greater
Tx:26.11 The  Holy Spirit offers you release from every problem that you think you
Tx:26.13  It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not true. The  Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small or more or
Tx:26.15  you call forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the  Holy Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For what you
Tx:26.33  you who still believe you live in time and know not it is gone, the  Holy Spirit still guides you through the infinitely small and
Tx:26.73  the working out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the  Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all effects that
Tx:26.74  of pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the  Holy Spirit asks for what He gave without a cost at all.
Tx:26.89  on it by rendering it purposeless, without the function that the  Holy Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus denied to every
Tx:26.90  without a purpose in a futile world. The world is fair because the  Holy Spirit has brought injustice to the light within, and there has
Tx:27.3  you offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith. The  Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of yourself in which
Tx:27.5  perceived and loved. Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the  Holy Spirit lays a picture of a different you. It is a picture of a
Tx:27.12  This thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that the  Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your function both be
Tx:27.20 The “cost” of your serenity is his. This is the “price” the  Holy Spirit and the world interpret differently. The world perceives
Tx:27.20  as a statement of the “fact” that your salvation sacrifices his. The  Holy Spirit knows your healing is the witness unto his and cannot be
Tx:27.21  to prevent a shift of balance in the sacrifice. How could the  Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, even less, to reason with an
Tx:27.26  his presence is perceived as all of you. To this remaining half the  Holy Spirit must represent the other half until you recognize it is
Tx:27.27  which cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the function which the  Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not
Tx:27.33  the means by which the truth is represented temporarily. It lets the  Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures possible until the time when
Tx:27.44  what he does not have? And who can share what he denies himself? The  Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to someone else. Yet by
Tx:27.54  It is a loud, obscuring voice whose shrieks would silence what the  Holy Spirit says and keep His words from your awareness. Pain compels
Tx:27.74 Rest in the  Holy Spirit and allow His gentle dreams to take the place of those
Tx:27.85 In gentle laughter does the  Holy Spirit perceive the cause and looks not to effects. How else
Tx:27.87 The  Holy Spirit will repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance
Tx:28.3  memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All things the  Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him, without the
Tx:28.4 The  Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God Himself is there.
Tx:28.8 This is the Cause the  Holy Spirit has remembered for you, when you would forget. It is not
Tx:28.25 Like every lesson which the  Holy Spirit requests you learn, the miracle is clear. It demonstrates
Tx:28.43 The  Holy Spirit is in both your minds, and He is One because there is no
