| W1:77.4 | rights you are upholding the rights of everyone. Miracles do not | obey the laws of this world. They merely follow from the laws of God. |
| W1:127.6 | we practice making free our minds of all the laws you think you must | obey, of all the limits under which you live, and all the changes |
| W1:136.18 | of all the sickly wishes that it tried to authorize the body to | obey. |

| W2:WIB.3 | purpose given it. But we can change the purpose which the body will | obey by changing what we think that it is for. |
| W2:278.1 | this do I believe when I maintain the laws the world obeys must I | obey—the frailties and the sins which I perceive are real and |
| W2:WIM.2 | as one. And thus it illustrates the law of truth the world does not | obey because it fails entirely to understand its ways. A miracle |

| Tx:4.36 | perception is uniformly without attack, so that wrong-mindedness is | obliterated. The ego cannot survive without judgment and is laid |

| Tx:12.24 | is the greatest threat you think you could experience. For hell and | oblivion are ideas which you made up, and you are bent on |

| Tx:20.55 | a tiny island of dry sand, bereft of water and set uncertainly upon | oblivion. Here does the Son of God stop briefly by to offer his |
| Tx:28.64 | bolts. The wind will topple it, and rain will come and carry it into | oblivion. |
| W1:136.5 | willingness to reconsider the decision which is doubly shielded by | oblivion. Your not remembering is but the sign that this decision |

obscure (66) | ||
| Tx:6.47 | The most inventive activities of the ego have never done more than | obscure the question, because you have the answer and the ego is |
| Tx:7.9 | the Kingdom or separated from it, thus making the Kingdom itself | obscure to both of you. Sickness and separation are not of God, but |
| Tx:7.9 | Sickness and separation are not of God, but the Kingdom is. If you | obscure the Kingdom, you are perceiving what is not of God. |
| Tx:7.65 | of God. Any belief that you accept which is apart from this will | obscure God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to you. |
| Tx:7.65 | apart from this will obscure God's Voice in you and will therefore | obscure God to you. Unless you perceive His creation truly, you |
| Tx:8.41 | through illusions, for only illusions of another direction can | obscure the one for which God's Voice speaks in all of us. Never |
| Tx:9.55 | deprive you of your true witnesses to your reality. Truth is not | obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you lies in the joy you |
| Tx:10.3 | to [the foundation of] the ego's thought system, the darker and more | obscure becomes the way. Yet even the little spark in your mind is |
| Tx:10.21 | this knowledge back into your minds, and let nothing that will | obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you will teach you how to |
| Tx:10.72 | the world as you perceive it. Truth is not absent here, but it is | obscure. You do not know the difference between what you have made |
| Tx:11.15 | of the fog that obscures it. If you give no power to the fog to | obscure the light, it has none, for it has power only because the Son |
| Tx:12.47 | created, there is no guilt in Him. No cloud of guilt has risen to | obscure Him, and He stands revealed in everyone you meet because you |
| Tx:12.49 | yours, you share in this release. Let no dark cloud out of your past | obscure him from you, for truth lies only in the present, and you |
| Tx:13.77 | sets you free. And it is His decision to undo everything that would | obscure your innocence from your unclouded mind. |
| Tx:14.16 | that can terrify, not for what it is, but for its hiddenness. The | obscure is frightening because you do not understand its meaning. If |
| Tx:14.18 | and of ignorance, look to them only for fear, for what they keep | obscure is fearful. But let them go, and what was fearful will be so |
| Tx:14.20 | a means of reestablishing what has not been broken but has been made | obscure. All things you made have use to Him for His most holy |
| Tx:14.32 | dark doors which you have closed lies nothing, because nothing can | obscure the gift of God. It is the closing of the doors that |
| Tx:14.42 | upon it. Reflections are seen in light. In darkness they are | obscure, and their meaning seems to lie only in shifting |
| Tx:14.44 | the world. The image of holiness which shines in your mind is not | obscure and will not change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is |
| Tx:14.44 | and will not change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is not | obscure, for everyone perceives it as the same. All bring their |

| Tx:15.39 | is of the ego and is nothing more than the ego's attempt to | obscure the obvious. |
| Tx:15.40 | now and reaching to eternity, but for a very simple reason. Do not | obscure the simplicity of this reason, for if you do, it will be only |
| Tx:15.62 | gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that you perceive | obscure your need of this. For in the holy instant, you will |
| Tx:16.55 | attempt to raise other gods before Him and by worshiping them to | obscure their tininess and His greatness. In the name of your |
| Tx:17.63 | successful, except that this attempt conflicts with unity and must | obscure the goal of truth. And peace will not be experienced except |
| Tx:18.18 | of satisfaction would be gone. In dreams these features are not | obscure. You seem to waken, and the dream is gone. Yet what you fail |
| Tx:20.48 | Love has no darkened temples where mysteries are kept | obscure and hidden from the sun. It does not seek for power, but for |
| Tx:21.13 | And if you choose against it now, it will not be because it is | obscure, but rather that this little cost seemed in your judgment to |
| Tx:21.25 | cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose now becomes to keep | obscure the cause of the effect and make effect appear to be a cause. |
| Tx:24.2 | question every value that you hold. Not one can be kept hidden and | obscure but it will jeopardize your learning. No belief is neutral. |
| Tx:24.53 | See in his freedom yours, for such it is. Let not his specialness | obscure the truth in him, for not one law of death you bind him to |
| Tx:25.27 | Nothing remains an instant to | obscure the sinlessness that shines unchanged beyond the pitiful |
| Tx:25.44 | —easier to see and better recognized. Somehow, the vague and more | obscure seems easier to look upon; less painful to the eyes than what |
| Tx:29.30 | What is your brother for? You do not know because your function is | obscure to you. Do not ascribe a role to him which you imagine would |
| Tx:29.52 | really are. That is the only power which they have. Their purpose is | obscure, and they are feared and worshiped both because you do not |
| Tx:30.53 | appearances and not reality. Dwell not on them in any form. They but | obscure reality, and they bring fear because they hide the truth. Do |
| Tx:30.91 | a prayer the miracle touch not some dreams but keep their unreality | obscure and give to them reality instead. And Heaven gives no answer |

| W1:9.7 | you are honest in making this distinction. You may be tempted to | obscure it. |
| W1:49.4 | shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your real thoughts and | obscure your eternal link with God. Sink deep into the peace that |
| W1:52.6 | Would I not rather join the thinking of the universe than to | obscure all that is really mine with my pitiful and meaningless |
| W1:64.1 | not wander into temptation.” The purpose of the world you see is to | obscure your function of forgiveness and provide you with a |
| W1:78.11 | very quiet now and look upon your shining savior. No dark grievances | obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the Holy Spirit to express |
| W1:81.4 | Let me not | obscure the light of the world in me. Let the light of the world |
| W1:84.5 | completely alien to love. Grievances attack love and keep its light | obscure. If I hold grievances I am attacking love and therefore |
| W1:94.2 | and light as well. You are as God created you. Darkness cannot | obscure the glory of the Son of God. You stand in light, strong in |
| W1:127.2 | Love's meaning is | obscure to anyone who thinks that love can change. He does not see |
| W1:135.18 | your reality which is the “threat” that your defenses would attack, | obscure, and take apart and crucify. |
| W1:136.18 | of truth. There will be no dim figures from your dreams nor their | obscure and meaningless pursuits with double purposes insanely |
| W1:152.4 | This is the simplest of distinctions, yet the most | obscure. But not because it is a difficult distinction to perceive. |
| W1:159.3 | love and the rebirth of love which never died but has been kept | obscure. Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like |
| W1:159.5 | there, transparent, faintly seen, at times forgot, and never able to | obscure the light that shines beyond them. Holiness has been restored |
| W1:165.1 | truth which lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death | obscure the perfect happiness and the Eternal Life your Father wills |
| W1:169.10 | that you have work to do to play your part. The ending must remain | obscure to you until your part is done. It does not matter. For your |

| Tx:12.47 | and look without condemnation upon the present. For the cloud which | obscures God's Son to you is the past, and if you would have it past |
| Tx:25.17 | purpose, not yours apart from His. It is your separate purpose that | obscures the picture and cherishes the frame instead of it. Yet God |

| Tx:11.22 | any way—this is what you will really see. You cannot lay aside the | obstacle to real vision without looking upon it, for to lay aside |

| Tx:19.91 | The fourth | obstacle to be surmounted hangs like a heavy veil before the face of |
| Tx:19.94 | Every | obstacle that peace must flow across is surmounted in just the same |

| Tx:19.98 | and learned illusions are not real. No one can stand before this | obstacle alone, for he could not have reached thus far unless his |
| Tx:20.11 | have asked for and been given the strength to look upon this final | obstacle and see no thorns nor nails to crucify the Son of God and |
| Tx:22.43 | theirs forever. All barriers disappear before their coming, as every | obstacle was finally surmounted which seemed to rise and block their |

| Tx:19.77 | more about this strange devotion, for it contains the third of the | obstacles which peace must flow across. No one can die unless he |
| Tx:19.94 | as love's attraction stirs and calls to you. From beyond each of the | obstacles to love, Love Itself has called, and each has been |
| Tx:20.11 | It has been given you to see no thorns, no strangers, and no | obstacles to peace. The fear of God is nothing to you now. Who is |
| Tx:20.36 | your path and leaving in your way no stones to trip on and no | obstacles to bar your way. Nothing you need will be denied you. Not |
| Tx:20.36 | so will its fulfillment be. God's guarantee will hold against all | obstacles, for it rests on certainty and not contingency. It rests on |

| W1:135.12 | to fulfill the plans assigned to it. It is secure in certainty that | obstacles cannot impede its progress to accomplishment of any goal |
| W1:170.10 | from fear. Let us remember what the course has stressed about the | obstacles to peace. The final one, the hardest to believe is nothing |
| W1:189.8 | You need not know the way to Him. Your part is simply to allow all | obstacles that you have interposed between the Son and God the Father |
| W1:193.14 | We will attempt today to overcome a thousand seeming | obstacles to peace in just one day. Let mercy come to you more |
| W1:194.1 | it sets you down just short of Heaven, with the goal in sight and | obstacles behind. Your foot has reached the lawns that welcome you to |

obtaining (1) | ||
| Tx:1.107 | by definition. They are a means of making false associations and | obtaining pleasure from them. Man can do this only because he is |
obvious (74) | ||
| Tx:2.55 | The reason only the mind can create is more | obvious than may be immediately apparent. The Soul has been created. |
| Tx:2.61 | of its own because it was created but is not creating. It should be | obvious, then, that correcting the creator or inducing it to give up |
| Tx:2.72 | means that you feel responsible for it. The level confusion here is | obvious. |

| Tx:3.61 | the selectivity of perception, pointing out that evaluation is its | obvious prerequisite. |
| Tx:4.30 | lasting sense of abundance can be truly charitable. This is quite | obvious when you consider the concepts involved. To the ego, to give |
| Tx:4.71 | not protect it. This, of course, is not only accurate but perfectly | obvious. |
| Tx:5.95 | Decisions cannot be difficult. This is | obvious if you realize that you must already have made a decision not |
| Tx:6.1 | The relationship of anger to attack is | obvious, but the inevitable association of anger and fear is not |
| Tx:7.101 | seem that this is necessary, it obviously is. The reason is equally | obvious. What is joyful to you is painful to the ego and, as long as |
| Tx:7.102 | That is why you need to demonstrate the | obvious to yourself. It is not obvious to you. You believe that doing |
| Tx:7.102 | is why you need to demonstrate the obvious to yourself. It is not | obvious to you. You believe that doing the opposite of God's Will can |
| Tx:8.30 | will, unless our wills are joined you cannot be healed. This is | obvious when you consider what healing is for. Healing is the way in |
| Tx:8.63 | else. To use a medium of communication as a medium of attack is an | obvious confusion in purpose. |
| Tx:8.66 | indication of a poor learner. He has accepted a learning goal in | obvious contradiction to the unified purpose of the curriculum and is |
| Tx:8.72 | argument from the ego's point of view because it obscures the | obvious attack which underlies the sickness. If you accepted this and |
| Tx:9.39 | the Atonement is the way to peace. The reason is very simple and so | obvious that it is often overlooked. That is because the ego is |
| Tx:9.39 | it is often overlooked. That is because the ego is afraid of the | obvious since obviousness is the essential characteristic of reality. |
| Tx:9.40 | It is perfectly | obvious that if the Holy Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, |
| Tx:10.54 | consistent truth must be meaningless. The next step, then, is | obvious. If consistent truth is meaningless, inconsistency must be |

| Tx:13.57 | The simple and the | obvious are not apparent to those who would make palaces and royal |

| Tx:16.24 | let what you are teach you. You have been very careful to avoid the | obvious and not to see the real cause and effect relationship that is |
| Tx:16.73 | you are allowing your destruction to be. That this is insane is | obvious. But what is less obvious to you is that the present is |
| Tx:16.73 | destruction to be. That this is insane is obvious. But what is less | obvious to you is that the present is useless to you while you pursue |
| Tx:19.3 | it and the purpose which the mind would use it for. And it is | obvious that a segment of the mind can see itself as separated from |
| Tx:20.46 | and calm, in smiling welcome and in sincerity so simple and so | obvious it cannot be misunderstood. But idols do not share. |
| Tx:21.51 | as simple and natural to It as breathing to the body. They are the | obvious response to calls for help, the only one It makes. Miracles |
| Tx:21.52 | not ask it. Like all that stems from reason, the basic question is | obvious, simple, and remains unasked. But think not reason could not |
| Tx:22.29 | in your awareness. And reason's goal is to make plain and therefore | obvious. You can see reason. This is not a play on words, for here is |
| Tx:22.29 | body's sight, it must be understood. For it is plain, and what is | obvious is not ambiguous. It can be understood. And here do reason |
| Tx:24.36 | Yet to those who wish to heal and not attack, it is quite | obvious. The purpose of attack is in the mind, and its effects are |
| Tx:25.82 | bring another problem added to the first, in which the murder is not | obvious. The Holy Spirit's problem solving is the way in which the |
| Tx:27.64 | hurting you. And so it seems as if there is no need to go beyond the | obvious in terms of cause. |
| Tx:27.90 | This is the | obvious—a secret kept from no one but yourself. And it is this that |
| Tx:28.58 | taken out upon the body, so that it will suffer pain. It is the | obvious effect of what was made in secret, in agreement with |
| Tx:30.17 | This much is | obvious and paves the way for the next easy step. |
| Tx:31.2 | the simple things salvation asks you learn. It teaches but the very | obvious. It merely goes from one apparent lesson to the next in easy |

| W1:43.10 | directly to today's idea is suitable. The thoughts need not bear an | obvious relationship to the idea, but they should not be in |
| W1:47.6 | past all concerns related to your own sense of inadequacy. It is | obvious that any situation that causes you concern is associated with |
| W1:72.3 | the attempt to keep the limitations which a body would impose is | obvious here, it is perhaps not so apparent why holding grievances is |
| W1:93.2 | see that they are based on nothing. That you have made mistakes is | obvious. That you have sought salvation in strange ways—have been |
| W1:107.7 | and escaping grasp. It does not hide. It stands in open light, in | obvious accessibility. It is impossible that anyone could seek it |
| W1:108.7 | case of giving and receiving. We will use this simple lesson in the | obvious because it has results we cannot miss. To give is to receive. |
| W1:133.10 | deceive but those who are content to be deceived. Its goals are | obvious to anyone who cares to look for them. Here is deception |
| W1:135.15 | which these self-deceptions take, for the denial of reality is very | obvious. Yet planning is not often recognized as a defense. |
| W1:138.3 | Choice is the | obvious escape from what appears as opposites. Decision lets one of |
| W1:163.6 | and cannot die. No compromise is possible. For here again we see an | obvious position which we must accept if we be sane; what contradicts |
| W1:170.5 | will perceive the premises on which the idea stands. First, it is | obvious ideas must leave their source. For it is you who make attack |
| W1:193.7 | be rejected in the end. No one can hide forever from a truth so very | obvious that it appears in countless forms and yet is recognized as |
| W2:259.1 | the goal of God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the | obvious and make the strange and the distorted seem more clear? What |
| W2:293.1 | and showing me distorted forms of pain? Yet in the present, love is | obvious and its effects apparent. All the world shines in reflection |
| W2:300.1 | a sky eternally serene. And it is this serenity we seek, unclouded, | obvious, and sure today. |

| M:4.8 | up what you do not want and keep what you do.” How simple is the | obvious! And how easy to do! The teacher of God needs this period of |
| M:5.4 | But to say this one must first recognize certain facts. First, it is | obvious that decisions are of the mind, not of the body. If sickness |
| M:9.2 | learns to give up his own judgment. The giving up of judgment, the | obvious prerequisite for hearing God's Voice, is usually a fairly |
| M:16.2 | to begin again, should the day begin with error, yet there are | obvious advantages in terms of saving time if the need for this can |

| M:17.5 | the Will of God and succeed. That this can hardly be a fact is | obvious. Yet that it can be believed as fact is surely so. And herein |
| M:25.1 | to magic to make up a power that does not exist. It is equally | obvious, however, that each individual has many abilities of which he |
| M:29.1 | and pupil may raise. In fact, it covers only a few of the more | obvious ones, in terms of a brief summary of some of the major |
| M:29.3 | Perhaps you have not thought of this aspect, but its centrality is | obvious. To follow the Holy Spirit's guidance is to let yourself be |
| M:29.4 | the truth about you. The image you made does not. Yet despite its | obvious and complete ignorance, this image assumes it knows all |

| Tx:2.50 | misperceives this as personally insulting, an interpretation which | obviously arises from their misperception of themselves. |

| Tx:3.71 | free will, he must regard his will as if it were not free, or the | obviously circular reasoning involved in his position would be quite |
| Tx:4.56 | your attitudes, your feelings, and your behavior. Your attitudes are | obviously conflicted, your feelings have a narrow range on the |
| Tx:5.36 | Delay is of the ego, because time is its concept. Delay is | obviously a time idea. Both time and delay are meaningless in |
| Tx:6.26 | In the ego's use of projection, to which we are | obviously referring, what you project you disown and therefore do not |
| Tx:6.74 | the other one, which would be much less acceptable to it, would | obviously be that it is insane. The ego's judgment, then, is |
| Tx:7.39 | with healing that it does need clarification. The unhealed healer | obviously does not understand his own vocation. |
| Tx:7.44 | that he can sometimes heal and sometimes not, the healer is | obviously accepting inconsistency. He is therefore in conflict and |
| Tx:7.100 | will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of pain must | obviously avoid pain. Surely no one would object to this goal if he |
| Tx:7.101 | them apart. However strange it may seem that this is necessary, it | obviously is. The reason is equally obvious. What is joyful to you is |
| Tx:8.5 | and if you want a different one, a change in the curriculum is | obviously necessary. |
| Tx:9.95 | to the denial of God is the ego's religion. The god of sickness | obviously demands the denial of health, because health is in direct |
| Tx:10.40 | can be dispelled merely by denying their reality. The next step is | obviously to recognize that what has no effects does not exist. Laws |
| Tx:10.43 | cannot have any effects if its source is not true. Fear becomes more | obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's goal, which is so |
| Tx:19.27 | Sometimes a sin can be repeated over and over with | obviously distressing results but without the loss of its appeal. And |
| W1:9.1 | This idea | obviously follows from the two preceding ones. But while you may be |
| W1:10.8 | Today's idea can | obviously serve for any thought that distresses you at any time. In |
| W1:15.7 | Although you will | obviously not be able to apply the idea to very many things during |
| W1:19.1 | The idea for today is | obviously the reason why your seeing does not affect you alone. You |
| W1:21.1 | The idea for today is | obviously a continuation and extension of the preceding one. This |
| W1:42.7 | unless you realize your mind is merely wandering and you have let | obviously irrelevant thoughts intrude. You may also reach a point |
| W1:61.9 | you are and what your purpose is. As a bringer of salvation, this is | obviously necessary. This is the first of a number of giant steps we |
| W1:65.1 | you have no function other than this. Both of these thoughts are | obviously necessary for a total commitment. Salvation cannot be the |

| Tx:4.25 | particularly important to realize that this alteration can and does | occur as readily when the interaction takes place in the mind as when |
| Tx:4.26 | that one need only perceive it to see that it does happen. If it can | occur that way in the present, why is it surprising that it occurred |
| Tx:5.33 | of the Holy Spirit either in himself or in you for this miracle to | occur. |
| Tx:5.56 | at all. However, human ideas can conflict in content, because they | occur at different levels and include opposite thoughts at the same |

| Tx:7.41 | in the service of the ego can hurt other bodies, but this cannot | occur unless the body has already been confused with the mind. This |
| Tx:9.14 | when we once said that miracles are natural, and when they do not | occur, something has gone wrong. |

| Tx:14.48 | among your thoughts, which, even though they may conflict, can | occur to you together and in great numbers. You are so used to this |
| Tx:16.52 | of the separation and of the total context in which it is thought to | occur. The central theme in its litany to sacrifice is that God must |

| Tx:17.10 | no differences, no variations which made perception possible will | occur. The perception of the real world will be so short that you |
| Tx:17.40 | now by real comparison a transformation of both pictures can at last | occur. And each is given its rightful place, when both are seen in |
| Tx:18.60 | This can | occur regardless of the physical distance which seems to be between |
| Tx:18.60 | in size and seeming quality. Time is not relevant; it can | occur with something past, present, or anticipated. The “something” |
| Tx:19.96 | utterly abandon you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all that will | occur is you will leave the world forever. This is the |
| Tx:25.83 | No one deserves to lose. And what would be unjust to him cannot | occur. Healing must be for everyone because he does not merit an |

| Tx:26.47 | for healing to be possible. For when it once is possible, it must | occur. All sickness comes from separation. When the separation is |
| Tx:27.1 | cannot sacrifice yourself alone. For sacrifice is total. If it could | occur at all, it would entail the whole of God's creation and the |
| Tx:27.46 | one instant of your love without attack is necessary that all this | occur. In that one instant are you healed, and in that single instant |
| Tx:27.85 | brother, Holy Son of God, behold your idle dream in which this could | occur,” and you will leave the holy instant with your laughter and |
| Tx:30.6 | angry. There are rules by which this will not happen. But it does | occur at first, while you are learning how to hear. |

| Tx:30.31 | For you and your advisor must agree on what you want before it can | occur. It is but this agreement which permits all things to happen. |
| Tx:31.27 | are? If you did not believe that you deserved attack, it never would | occur to you to give attack to anyone at all. Why should you? What |
| Tx:31.29 | is all that causes change. And so the body, where no learning can | occur, could never change unless the mind preferred the body change |
| Tx:31.72 | this shift requires is that you be willing that this happy change | occur. No more than this is asked. On its behalf, remember what the |
| W1:12.5 | and so on, using whatever descriptive terms happen to | occur to you. If terms which seem positive rather than negative occur |
| W1:12.5 | to occur to you. If terms which seem positive rather than negative | occur to you, include them. For example, you might think of a “good |
| W1:12.5 | think of a “good world,” or a “satisfying world.” If such terms | occur to you, use them along with the rest. You may not yet |
| W1:23.6 | about a minute to searching your mind for as many attack thoughts as | occur to you. As each one crosses your mind say: |
| W1:24.7 | on. Try to cover as many different kinds of outcome as may honestly | occur to you, even if some of them do not appear to you to be |
| W1:26.12 | you will probably find some of them, especially those which | occur to you toward the end, less acceptable to you. Try, however, to |
| W1:35.8 | You should not think of these terms in an abstract way. They will | occur to you as various situations, personalities and events in which |
| W1:35.10 | slowly until something occurs to you. Although nothing that does | occur should be omitted from the exercises, nothing should be “dug |
| W1:42.4 | slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except thoughts which | occur to you in relation to today's idea. You might think, for |
| W1:42.7 | where no thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If such interferences | occur, open your eyes and repeat the thought once more while looking |
| W1:43.8 | repeat today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant thoughts | occur to you add to the idea in your own personal way. Thoughts such |
| W1:43.11 | try the second phase again. Do not allow any protracted period to | occur in which you become preoccupied with irrelevant thoughts. |
| W1:43.15 | throughout the day to various situations and events which may | occur, particularly to those which distress you in any way. For this |
| W1:70.5 | Your purpose was to ensure that healing did not | occur; God's purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we practice |
| W1:108.4 | which appears to be in second place. Here it is understood that both | occur together, that the thought remain complete. And in this |
| W1:136.21 | the body, for the mind is sick. Give instant remedy should this | occur by not allowing your defensiveness to hurt you longer. Do not |
| W1:137.12 | at home, and can this invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to | occur, and you will never fail. The other choice is but to ask what |

| Tx:2.15 | places him in a position to realize that his own errors never really | occurred. When the “deep sleep” fell upon Adam, he was in a condition |

| Tx:27.53 | by you to let you understand that you have benefited from it. What | occurred within the instant which love entered in without attack will |
| Tx:30.11 | once again the day you want and recognize that something has | occurred which is not part of it. Then realize that you have asked a |

| Tx:30.71 | appropriately to what is not real by not perceiving what has not | occurred. If pardon were unjustified, you would be asked to sacrifice |
| Tx:31.1 | never true is not true now and never will be. The impossible has not | occurred and can have no effects. And that is all. Can this be hard |

| W1:14.4 | the horrors in the world that cross your mind. Name each one as it | occurs to you, and then deny its reality. God did not create it, and |
| W1:16.4 | hard for you not to make artificial distinctions. Every thought that | occurs to you, regardless of the quality which you assign to it, is a |
| W1:24.5 | Name each situation that | occurs to you, and enumerate carefully as many goals as possible that |
| W1:35.8 | you figure cross your mind. Pick up any specific situation that | occurs to you, identify the descriptive term or terms which you feel |
| W1:35.10 | periods, there will probably be intervals in which nothing specific | occurs to you. Do not strain to think up specific things to fill the |
| W1:35.10 | but merely relax and repeat today's idea slowly until something | occurs to you. Although nothing that does occur should be omitted |
| W1:35.11 | idea to each of them in the form stated above. If nothing particular | occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to yourself with closed eyes. |
| W1:37.6 | Then close your eyes and apply the idea to any person who | occurs to you, using his name and saying: |
| W1:105.7 | own. Think of your “enemies” a little while, and tell each one as he | occurs to you: |
| W1:134.19 | times when you forget its meaning and attack yourself. When this | occurs, allow your mind to see through this illusion as you tell |
| W1:152.1 | that he wants. And no one dies without his own consent. Nothing | occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is omitted that you |
| W1:167.3 | directs it. But its origin is where it must be changed if change | occurs. Ideas leave not their source. The emphasis this course has |

| Tx:5.84 | in it. This is a dissociated state, because the thinker cuts himself | off from his thoughts. Freud's thought was so conflicted that he |

| Tx:11.37 | of your mind, and because of its source, the ego is not wholly split | off, or it could not be believed at all. For it is your mind that |
| Tx:13.50 | and all this has been denied, your thought system is closed | off and wholly separated from the truth. This is an insane world, and |
| Tx:14.17 | love cannot share its healing power, because it has been separated | off and kept in darkness. The sentinels of darkness watch over it |
| Tx:14.22 | meaningless. But He will separate out all that has meaning, dropping | off the rest and offering your true communication to those who would |
| Tx:15.42 | Every thought you would keep hidden shuts communication | off because you would have it so. It is impossible to recognize |
| Tx:16.26 | be outside, where nothing is. You have taught this, and from far | off in the universe, yet not beyond yourself, the witnesses to your |
| Tx:16.32 | value in itself, but as a place of safety from which hatred is split | off and kept apart. The special love partner is acceptable only as |
| Tx:17.17 | on whom vengeance is really sought are centered on and separated | off as being the only parts of value. Every step taken in the making, |
| Tx:17.17 | Every step taken in the making, the maintaining, and the breaking | off of the unholy relationship is a move toward further fragmentation |
| Tx:17.45 | Now it seems to make no sense. Many relationships have been broken | off at this point, and the pursuit of the old goal reestablished in |

| Tx:17.62 | not perceive the situation as a whole. Therefore, it seeks to split | off segments of the situation and deal with them separately, for it |
| Tx:18.7 | senseless substitutions, touched with insanity and swirling lightly | off on a mad course like feathers dancing insanely in the wind, have |
| Tx:18.57 | The body is outside you, and but seems to surround you, shutting you | off from others and keeping you apart from them [and them from you]. |
| Tx:18.84 | it is the tiny part of yourself, the little thought that seems split | off and separate, which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in |
| Tx:18.85 | Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in which you set it | off, surrounded by darkness, guarded by attack, and reinforced by |
| Tx:20.22 | who wandered carelessly into the home of truth, and who will wander | off. He came without a purpose, but he will not remain before the |
| Tx:20.67 | your desire for something else. Open the holy place which you closed | off by valuing the “something else,” and what was never lost will |
| Tx:21.52 | interfered with reason. Reason lies in the other Self you have cut | off from your awareness. And nothing you have allowed to stay in it |
| Tx:22.5 | though you wandered in without a plan of any kind except to wander | off, for only that seems certain. |
| Tx:23.20 | each is separate and has a different set of thoughts which sets him | off from others. This principle evolves from the belief there is a |
| Tx:24.8 | have been given to each other that love might be extended, not cut | off from one another. What you keep is lost to you. God gave you both |
| Tx:24.9 | only partial welcome or would let you think that you are better | off apart. Is it not always your belief your specialness is limited |
| Tx:24.27 | yourself; your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to split you | off from God and make you separate from Him as its defender. You |
| Tx:24.28 | But specialness is not the truth in you. It can be thrown | off balance by anything. What rests on nothing never can be stable. |
| Tx:25.15 | is the frame without its meaning. Its purpose is to set the picture | off and not itself. |
| Tx:25.25 | it is perceived. For specialness it is the perfect frame to set it | off—the perfect battleground to wage its wars, the perfect shelter |
| Tx:25.35 | remote and far away from you. And they go farther and farther | off because the sun in you has risen that they may be pushed away |
| Tx:25.70 | understandable to sinners because they think that justice is split | off from love and stands for something else. |
| Tx:26.1 | All seeming entities can come a little nearer or go a little farther | off but cannot join. |
| Tx:26.3 | The little that the body fences | off becomes the self, preserved through sacrifice of all the rest. |
| Tx:26.26 | that they are one, for nothing stands between to push the other | off. And in the space which sin left vacant do they join as one, in |
| Tx:26.31 | Heaven's song, is difficult to do. But it is hard indeed to wander | off, alone and miserable, down a road which leads to nothing and |
| Tx:26.54 | a little space to you, another little space to him. This separating | off is symbolized in your perception by a body which is clearly |
| Tx:27.3 | writ in Heaven in your blood and death and go before him, closing | off the gate and damning him to hell. Yet this is writ in hell and |
| Tx:27.23 | as the one more innocent than he. This splits his function | off from yours and gives you both a different role. And so you cannot |
| Tx:28.23 | not be the maker of the dream. Effect and cause are first split | off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a cause; the cause, |
| Tx:28.47 | What is a sense of sickness but a sense of limitation? Of a splitting | off and separating from? A gap perceived between [ourselves] and what |
| Tx:28.47 | good is seen outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating | off the self from good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to |
| Tx:29.4 | of space between two separate bodies. This but seems to be dividing | off your separate minds. It is the symbol of a promise made to meet |
| Tx:29.44 | something more than everything, as if a part of it were separated | off and found where all the rest of it is not. This is the purpose he |
| Tx:29.54 | and fall before His face like a dark veil which seems to shut you | off from Him, alone in darkness. Yet the light is there. A cloud does |

| Tx:29.62 | he who judges will have need of idols which will hold the judgment | off from resting on himself. Nor can he know the Self he has |
| Tx:30.21 | But this much reason have you now attained—you would be better | off if you were wrong. |
| Tx:30.40 | could this be so. For sin is the idea you are alone and separated | off from what is whole. And thus it would be necessary for the search |
| Tx:31.76 | your brother, kept apart by an illusion of yourself which holds him | off from you and you away from him. The sword of judgment is the |

| W1:137.1 | on separate states. Sickness is a retreat from others and a shutting | off of joining. It becomes a door that closes on a separate self and |
| W1:137.8 | by its gentle hand is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled | off within a body free to join with other minds, to be forever strong. |
| W1:R4.5 | Their purpose is to show you something else and hold correction | off through self-deceptions made to take its place. |

| W1:154.6 | major difference in the role of Heaven's messengers which sets them | off from those the world appoints. The messages which they deliver |

| W1:183.3 | thoughts. The blind can see; the deaf can hear; the sorrowful cast | off their mourning, and the tears of pain are dried as happy laughter |
| W1:184.1 | of unity. By this you designate its special attributes and set it | off from other things by emphasizing space surrounding it. This space |
| W1:184.2 | This space you see as setting | off all things from one another is the means by which the world's |

| W1:195.1 | world amiss. The most that they can do is see themselves as better | off than others. And they try to be content because another seems to |
| W1:195.5 | you. Let us not compare ourselves with them, for thus we split them | off in our awareness from the unity we share with them, as they must |
| W2:294.1 | not sick or old or hurt. It is but functionless, unneeded and cast | off. Let me not see it more than this today—of service for a while |

| Tx:1.29 | of the process of Atonement, which I undertook to begin. When you | offer a miracle unto any of my brothers, you do it unto yourself and |
| Tx:3.29 | and in others simultaneously. Because you see them as they are, you | offer them your own validation of their truth. This is the healing |
| Tx:4.4 | as often as you choose. But this is not the Gospel I intended to | offer you. We have another journey to undertake, and if you will read |
| Tx:4.6 | frequently in the Bible. To profess is to identify with an idea and | offer the idea to others to be their own. The idea does not lessen; |
| Tx:4.48 | Having reduced the Soul impulses to the unconscious, the ego has to | offer you some sort of reward for maintaining this belief. All it can |
| Tx:4.48 | you some sort of reward for maintaining this belief. All it can | offer is a sense of temporary existence, which begins with its own |
| Tx:4.50 | a kind of experience which is so different from anything the ego can | offer that you will never recover. The word “recover” is used quite |
| Tx:4.105 | as He Himself knows praise. He offers praise to you, and you must | offer it to others. The chief handicaps of the clinicians lie in |

| Tx:7.37 | a real delusion. The ego believes that it has this ability and can | offer it to you as a gift. You do not want it. It is not a gift. It |
| Tx:7.42 | sees something “special” in the healer which he believes he can | offer as a gift to someone who does not have it. He may believe that |
| Tx:7.72 | to bless him. His need is yours. You need the blessing you can | offer him. There is no way for you to have it except by giving it. |
| Tx:7.81 | only, and giving this only, you will be only this. The gifts you | offer to the ego are always experienced as sacrifices, but the gifts |
| Tx:7.81 | to the ego are always experienced as sacrifices, but the gifts you | offer to the Kingdom are gifts to you. They will always be treasured |
| Tx:8.31 | would not go against it. I cannot will what God does not will. I can | offer you my will to make yours invincible by this sharing, but I |
| Tx:8.34 | Freedom is the only gift you can | offer to God's Sons, being an acknowledgment of what they are and |
| Tx:8.38 | with me is to restore His power to you, because we are sharing it. I | offer you only the recognition of His power in you, but in that lies |
| Tx:8.42 | you. Forget not the Kingdom of God for anything the world has to | offer. The world can add nothing to the power and the glory of God |
| Tx:8.71 | without ceasing, so that you will continue to hope that it can yet | offer you something. |
| Tx:9.32 | joy and so you will not always recognize His consistency. What you | offer to your brother, you offer to Him because He cannot go beyond |
| Tx:9.32 | recognize His consistency. What you offer to your brother, you | offer to Him because He cannot go beyond your offering in His giving. |
| Tx:9.37 | but accept one of them, you would not want anything the world has to | offer. Everything else would be totally meaningless. God's meaning is |
| Tx:9.47 | what you want in these terms and accept nothing that you would not | offer to God as wholly fitting for Him, for you do not want anything |
| Tx:9.48 | this, the ego believes that its “enemy” has struck and attempts to | offer gifts to induce you to return to its “protection.” |
| Tx:9.50 | to attack now or to withdraw to attack later. If you accept its | offer of grandiosity, it will attack immediately. If you do not, it |
| Tx:9.69 | fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. | Offer the Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the |
| Tx:9.81 | as you accept. You could accept peace now for everyone you meet and | offer them perfect freedom from all illusions because you heard. But |
| Tx:9.100 | and you are of God. Would He allow Himself to suffer? And would He | offer His Son anything that is not acceptable to Him? |
| Tx:10.4 | will also have looked upon ours. I come to you from our Father to | offer you everything again. Do not refuse it in order to keep a dark |
| Tx:10.21 | willingness need not be perfect, because His is. If you will merely | offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so much that you will |
| Tx:11.3 | to give it to him, for this and only this is what he is asking for. | Offer him anything else, and you are assuming the right to attack his |
| Tx:11.16 | Perceive in sickness but another call for love and | offer your brother what he believes he cannot offer himself. Whatever |
| Tx:11.16 | call for love and offer your brother what he believes he cannot | offer himself. Whatever the sickness, there is but one remedy. You |
| Tx:11.16 | the call for love. And to give a brother what he really wants is to | offer it unto yourself, for your Father wills you to know your |
| 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 |
| Tx:11.52 | divided, and the means and the end are in complete accord. You need | offer only undivided attention. Everything else will be given you. |
| Tx:11.77 | For if love is sharing, how can you find it except through itself? | Offer it and it will come to you because it is drawn to itself. But |
| Tx:11.77 | Offer it and it will come to you because it is drawn to itself. But | offer attack and it will remain hidden, for it can live only in peace. |
| Tx:11.81 | What is not real cannot be seen and has no value. God could not | offer His Son what has no value, nor could His Son receive it. You |
| Tx:12.16 | need of healing cannot be denied. Not all the tricks and games you | offer it can heal it, for here is the real crucifixion of God's Son. |
| Tx:12.37 | of fear you have invited into it, and all the love your brothers | offer you, you do not see. As you look with open eyes upon your |
| Tx:12.39 | Little children, would you | offer this to your Father? For if you offer it to yourself, you are |
| Tx:12.39 | Little children, would you offer this to your Father? For if you | offer it to yourself, you are offering it to Him. And He will not |
| Tx:12.40 | welcomes all of us in gladness, and gladness is what we should | offer Him. For every Son of God is given you to whom God gave |
| Tx:12.40 | given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you must | offer them to recognize His gift to you. |
| Tx:12.54 | for it, and in their joy, they shine with holy thanks. And this they | offer you, who gave them joy. They are your guides to joy, for having |
| Tx:12.64 | errors for the peace of God is but your will. And Christ will always | offer you the Will of God in recognition that you share it with Him. |
| Tx:12.67 | nothing fearful, and because of this, they are the welcome that you | offer knowledge. Love waits on welcome, not on time, and the real |
| Tx:13.5 | the miracle of creation; that it is one forever. Every miracle you | offer to the Son of God is but the true perception of one aspect of |
| Tx:13.6 | all the same; all beautiful and equal in their holiness. And He will | offer them unto His Father as they were offered unto Him. There is |
| Tx:13.7 | gift you can bestow, and your Father's gift you cannot lose. | Offer Christ's gift to everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered |
| Tx:13.16 | truth of guiltlessness unto yourself. In every condemnation that you | offer the Son of God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you |
| Tx:13.16 | If you would have the Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept His | offer of Atonement for all your brothers. For so you learn that it is |
| Tx:13.31 | upon his purity and be still. In quiet look upon his holiness and | offer thanks unto his Father that no guilt has ever touched him. |
| Tx:13.33 | you. I love all that He created, and all my faith and my belief I | offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the love I give my |
| Tx:13.33 | for your loveliness and for the many gifts that you will let me | offer to the Kingdom in honor of its wholeness, which is of God. |
| Tx:13.48 | can learn to bless and cannot give what you have not. If, then, you | offer blessing, it must have come first to yourself. And you must |
| Tx:13.49 | That is why your miracles | offer you the testimony that you are blessed. If what you offer is |
| Tx:13.49 | miracles offer you the testimony that you are blessed. If what you | offer is complete forgiveness, you must have let guilt go, accepting |
| Tx:13.58 | make but need to learn. Your faith in nothing is deceiving you. | Offer your faith to Me, and I will place it gently in the holy place |
| Tx:13.65 | of value, each representing an escape from what the other does not | offer you. You do not want either alone, for without both, you do not |
| Tx:13.69 | happiness that comes from choosing to be free of guilt. Everyone you | offer healing to returns it. Everyone you attack keeps it and |
| Tx:13.69 | will make no difference; you will think he does. It is impossible to | offer what you do not want without this penalty. The cost of giving |
| Tx:13.72 | in place of all the happy teaching the Holy Spirit would gladly | offer him. |
| Tx:13.75 | Would you be content with little, which is all that you alone can | offer yourself, when He Who gives you everything will simply offer it |
| Tx:13.75 | can offer yourself, when He Who gives you everything will simply | offer it to you? He will never ask what you have done to make you |
| Tx:13.90 | thus are darkness and deceit undone. Fail not yourself, but instead | offer to God and you His blameless Son. For this small gift of |
| Tx:14.33 | be replaced by gifts wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can you | offer guilt to God? You cannot, then, offer it to His Son. For they |
| Tx:14.33 | to Father and to Son. Can you offer guilt to God? You cannot, then, | offer it to His Son. For they are not apart, and gifts to one are |
| Tx:14.45 | without regard for what is brought to it. Those who have learned to | offer only healing because of the reflection of holiness in them are |
| Tx:14.57 | Nor will the power of all His love be absent from any miracle you | offer to His Son. How, then, can there be any order of difficulty |
| Tx:14.66 | His rightful place in your awareness the instant you abandon it and | offer it to Him. |
| Tx:15.7 | threat, for it would have its worshipers still believe that it can | offer the escape from it. But the belief in guilt must lead to the |
| Tx:15.12 | be willing to give Him this than for Him to use this tiny instant to | offer you the whole of Heaven. In exchange for this instant, He |
| Tx:15.13 | of release is yours. Miracles are the instants of release you | offer and will receive. They attest to your willingness to be |
| Tx:15.13 | will receive. They attest to your willingness to be released and to | offer time to the Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an |
| Tx:15.14 | is your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be holy if you | offer holiness. How long is an instant? As long as it takes to |
| Tx:15.15 | be remembered for you in that shining instant of perfect release. | Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the Holy Spirit and |
| Tx:15.16 | will let go all your past learning, and the Holy Spirit will quickly | offer you the whole lesson of peace. What can take time, when all the |
| Tx:15.23 | for you will have judged yourself unworthy of it. And whatever you | offer as a substitute is much too poor a gift to satisfy you. It is |
| Tx:15.27 | minds, untouched by every little gift the world of littleness would | offer you. But for this, you cannot side against Him in what He wills |
| Tx:15.32 | have learned to accept what you are, you will make no more gifts to | offer to yourselves, for you will know you are complete, in need of |
| Tx:15.47 | it? To believe that special relationships, with special love, can | offer you salvation is the belief that separation is salvation. For |
| Tx:15.49 | under His care and be sure that it will not result in pain if you | offer Him your willingness to have it serve no need but His. All the |
| Tx:15.54 | needs them all equally, and so do you. In time you have been told to | offer miracles as Christ directs and let the Holy Spirit bring to you |
| Tx:15.57 | in you. And so you seek without for what you cannot find without. I | offer you my perfect faith in you in place of all your doubt. But |
| Tx:15.69 | truly. For it is certain that, if you will look at them, you will | offer them gladly to Him. What He can make of them, you do not know, |
| Tx:15.79 | of Him what the truth must be. He is swift to utilize whatever you | offer Him on behalf of this. His concern and care for you are |
| Tx:15.89 | you would see without the limits the ego would impose on them can | offer you the gift of freedom. |
| Tx:15.93 | his unlimited power is thus restored to him. What other gift can you | offer me, when only this I will to offer you? And to see me is to see |
| Tx:15.93 | to him. What other gift can you offer me, when only this I will to | offer you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and offer everyone |
| Tx:15.93 | this I will to offer you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and | offer everyone the gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving |
| Tx:15.93 | to see me is to see me in everyone and offer everyone the gift you | offer me. I am as incapable of receiving sacrifice as God is, and |
| Tx:15.93 | And by this limitation, you have limited acceptance of the gift I | offer you. |
| Tx:15.99 | appease this savage guest, for it is an invader who but seems to | offer kindness, but always to make the sacrifice complete. |
| Tx:15.108 | peace by demanding no sacrifice of anyone, for so will you | offer me the love I offer you. What can be more joyous than to |
| Tx:15.108 | no sacrifice of anyone, for so will you offer me the love I | offer you. What can be more joyous than to perceive we are deprived |
| Tx:16.6 | The triumph of weakness is not what you would | offer to a brother. And yet you know no triumph but this. This is not |
| Tx:16.6 | your role with His, for this will never bring peace to anyone. | Offer your empathy to Him, for it is His perception and His strength |
| Tx:16.6 | is His perception and His strength that you would share. And let Him | offer you His strength and His perception to be shared through you. |
| Tx:16.25 | Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their creation they | offer gladly to your teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who |
| Tx:16.37 | without which you could never be complete. No specialness can | offer you what God has given and what you are joined with Him in |
| Tx:17.15 | no one not obsessed with keeping separation could hear them. They | offer you the “reasons” why you should enter into unholy alliances |
| Tx:17.24 | let go. And what is thus let go is all the truth the past could ever | offer to the present as witnesses for its reality, while what is kept |
| Tx:17.26 | me. Let me enter in the Name of God and bring you peace that you may | offer peace to me. |
| Tx:17.33 | defend. The underlying basis for their effectiveness is that they | offer what they defend. What they defend is placed in them for |
| Tx:17.56 | this, you will have also learned how to release all the Sonship and | offer it in gladness and thanksgiving to Him Who gave you your |
| Tx:18.36 | to those who think that they must first atone, but only to those who | offer it nothing more than simple willingness to make way for it. |
| Tx:18.42 | the Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. Your part is only to | offer Him a little willingness to let Him remove all fear and hatred |
| Tx:18.46 | of your relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and | offer the Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him |
| Tx:18.48 | for us to share 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 |
| Tx:19.10 | Atonement for yourself and would therefore share it. By faith you | offer the gift of freedom from the past, which you received. You do |
| Tx:19.12 | and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith is a gift you | offer to the Son of God through Him, and wholly acceptable to his |
| Tx:19.13 | altar where the grace was given, in which it stands. Do you, then, | offer grace and blessing to each other, for you stand at the same |
| Tx:19.32 | as mightier than God, before which God Himself must bow and | offer His creation to its conqueror. Is this humility or madness? |
| Tx:19.38 | you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy Spirit asks that you | offer Him a resting-place where you will rest in Him. He answered you |
| Tx:19.53 | found, to share them lovingly with you. Be not afraid of them. They | offer you salvation. Theirs are the messages of safety, for they see |
| Tx:19.57 | Yet would I | offer you my body, you whom I love, knowing its littleness? Or would |
| Tx:19.98 | And let us join in faith that He Who brought us here together will | offer you the innocence you need and that you will accept it for my |
| Tx:19.103 | crucified by sin, and waiting for release from pain. Would you not | offer him forgiveness, when only he can offer it to you? For his |
| Tx:19.103 | from pain. Would you not offer him forgiveness, when only he can | offer it to you? For his redemption, he will give you yours as surely |
| Tx:19.104 | There is no grace of Heaven that you cannot | offer to each other and receive from your most holy Friend. Let him |
| Tx:19.104 | most holy Friend. Let him withhold it not, for by receiving it you | offer it to him. [For he will receive of you what you received of |
| Tx:19.105 | Think who your brother is before you would condemn him. And | offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been given the gift of |
| Tx:19.106 | the Holy Spirit 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 |
| Tx:19.107 | look on you, and overlook the sins he thinks he sees within himself. | Offer each other freedom and complete release from sin here in the |
| Tx:19.108 | Heaven is the gift you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you | offer to the Son of God in thanks for what he is and what his Father |
| Tx:20.2 | And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of God and not his sins. | Offer each other the gift of lilies, not the crown of thorns; the |
| Tx:20.5 | your brother to you and to attract his body's eyes? Learn you but | offer him a crown of thorns, not recognizing it for what it is and |
| Tx:20.6 | bodies if they be truly given and received. For bodies can neither | offer nor accept; hold out nor take. Only the mind can value, and |
| Tx:20.7 | is. Forget not that it is your savior to whom the gift is offered. | Offer him thorns and you are crucified. Offer him lilies and it is |
| Tx:20.7 | to whom the gift is offered. Offer him thorns and you are crucified. | Offer him lilies and it is yourself you free. |
| Tx:20.8 | need for lilies, for the Son of God has not forgiven me. And can I | offer him forgiveness when he offers thorns to me? For he who offers |
| Tx:20.8 | the altar in your chosen home and see what you have laid upon it to | offer me. If it be thorns whose points gleam sharply in a blood-red |
| Tx:20.8 | light, the body is your chosen home, and it is separation that you | offer me. And yet the thorns are gone. Look you still closer at them |
| Tx:20.15 | each other's holy altar where the strength and freedom wait, to | offer and receive the bright awareness that leads you home. The lamp |
| Tx:20.42 | harmony already. Here is the perfect faith that you will one day | offer to each other already offered you. And here the limitless |
| Tx:20.43 | And yet, have faith that He Who sees the gift in both of you will | offer and receive it for you both. And through His vision will you |
| Tx:20.44 | in him. What is he, that the Creator of the universe should | offer it to him and know it rests in safety? He looks upon himself |
| Tx:20.48 | idols thrive. The rest it merely throws away, for all that it could | offer is seen as valueless. Homeless, the ego seeks as many bodies as |
| Tx:20.55 | upon oblivion. Here does the Son of God stop briefly by to | offer his devotion to death's idols, and then pass on. And here he is |
| Tx:20.58 | of you. It is impossible to imagine one that asks so little or could | offer more. |
| Tx:21.13 | have your whole relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you | offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very |
| Tx:21.17 | to Him Who must 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 |
| Tx:21.31 | What faith you give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you | offer holiness has been removed from sin. |
| Tx:22.42 | given to everyone. For you are here to let it be received. God's | offer still is open, yet it waits acceptance. From you who have |
| Tx:22.44 | How easy is it to | offer this miracle to everyone! No one who has received it for |
| Tx:22.59 | which can be extended. Save no dark secrets that He cannot use, but | offer Him the tiny gifts He can extend forever. He will take each one |
| Tx:22.59 | gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each little gift you | offer to the other lights up the world. Be not concerned with |

| Tx:23.54 | suffer change of any kind. Perhaps you think the battleground can | offer something that you can win. Can it be anything that offers you |
| Tx:23.55 | for on the battleground is of the body—something it seems to | offer or to own. No one who knows that he has everything could seek |
| 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 plan for your |
| Tx:24.45 | thing that He beholds and loves. And seeks it still, that each might | offer you the love of God. |
| Tx:24.47 | this: the holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you to | offer you your own completion. What is His is yours because in your |
| Tx:24.57 | and without accomplishment of any kind, is all the other choice can | offer you. Futility of function not fulfilled will haunt you while |

| Tx:25.20 | not be glad if you appreciate His masterpiece? What could He do but | offer thanks to you who love His Son as He does? Would He not make |
| Tx:25.23 | other law than this. The rest but stems from this, to hold it up and | offer it support. This is perception's form adapted to this world of |
| Tx:25.29 | from the belief there are two ways to see. This world has much to | offer to your peace and many chances to extend your own forgiveness. |
| Tx:25.29 | to those who want to see peace and forgiveness descend on them and | offer them the light. |
| Tx:25.35 | your peace can never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who | offer peace to everyone have found a home in Heaven the world cannot |
| Tx:25.41 | you perceive it! And how great will be your joy, when he is free to | offer you the gift of sight God gave to him for you! He has no need |
| Tx:25.58 | does his sinfulness and all the sin he sees within the world | offer him less and less— until he comes to understand it cost him |

| Tx:27.17 | it has never suffered pain because of him. And in its healing can it | offer him mute testimony of his innocence. It is this testimony which |
| Tx:27.17 | tongues. For here is his forgiveness proved to him. A miracle can | offer nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So does your |
| Tx:27.39 | illusions, which of them are true? Which ones establish peace and | offer joy? And which can bring escape from all the pain of which this |
| Tx:27.44 | ask another to be healed. But he can let himself be healed and thus | offer the other what he has received. Who can bestow upon another |
| Tx:28.12 | instant given Him. For in that instant is His memory allowed to | offer all its treasures to the Son of God, for whom they have been |
| Tx:28.12 | to the Son of God, for whom they have been kept. How gladly does He | offer them unto the one for whom He has been given them! And His |
| Tx:28.23 | they adopted as their own. And hate it for the vengeance it would | offer them. It is their vengeance on the body which appears to prove |
| Tx:29.7 | seen as treacherous because it seems to come and go uncertainly and | offer no stability to you. You do not see how limited and weak is |
| Tx:29.32 | peace in you can but be found in him. And every thought of love you | offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening to peace eternal and |
| Tx:29.50 | this idol can be saved. Salvation thus appears to threaten life and | offer death. |

| Tx:30.31 | advisor for yourself and for the world as well. The day you want you | offer to the world, for it will be what you have asked for and will |
| Tx:30.56 | are for nothing. And the Son of God can have no need of them. They | offer him no single thing that he could ever want. He is delivered |
| Tx:30.70 | on this forgiveness rests and is but natural. You are not asked to | offer pardon where attack is due and would be justified. For this |
| Tx:30.85 | would perceive it everywhere, unchanged by circumstance. And so you | offer it to all events, and let them offer you stability. |

| Tx:31.33 | There is a tendency to think the world can | offer consolation and escape from problems which its purpose is to |
| Tx:31.34 | Real choice is no illusion. But the world has none to | offer. All its roads but lead to disappointment, nothingness, and |
| Tx:31.35 | before you really learn they are but one. The roads this world can | offer seem to be quite large in number, but the time must come when |
| Tx:31.38 | The learning that the world can | offer but one choice, no matter what its form may be, is the |
| Tx:31.70 | when you have reached the world beyond the sight your eyes alone can | offer you to see. For you will not interpret what you see without the |
| Tx:31.72 | your hand that you may have the gift of kind forgiveness which you | offer one whose need for it is just the same as yours. And let the |
| Tx:31.73 | let it serve the function given you to bring you peace that you may | offer peace to have it yours. Alternatives are in your mind to use, |
| Tx:31.95 | of what they are and will forever be. They will accept the gift I | offer them because You gave it me on their behalf. And as I would but |
| W1:37.9 | to use the idea if anyone seems to cause an adverse reaction in you. | Offer him the blessing of your holiness immediately that you may |
| W1:71.4 | Another person will yet serve better; another situation will yet | offer success. |
| W1:75.3 | Our exercises for today will be happy ones in which we | offer thanks for the passing of the old and the beginning of the new. |
| W1:77.1 | are. You will receive miracles because of what God is. And you will | offer miracles because you are one with God. Again, how simple is |
| W1:89.4 | I am entitled. Let me not hold a grievance against you [name], but | offer you the miracle that belongs to you instead. Seen truly, this |
| W1:92.9 | The strength in you will | offer you the light and guide your seeing, so you do not dwell on |
| W1:96.16 | minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your mind and Self, you | offer Him another treasure to be kept for you. |
| W1:97.4 | count on Him Who promised to lay timelessness beside them. He will | offer all His strength to every little effort which you make. |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each practice period today gladly to Him. And He will speak to | |
| W1:97.12 | else. The Holy Spirit gives you peace today. Receive His words, and | offer them to Him. |
| W1:98.4 | will be with us—all who took the stand we take today will gladly | offer us all that they learned and every gain they made. Those still |
| W1:98.6 | Here is an | offer guaranteeing you your full release from pain of every kind and |
| W1:98.11 | period you share with Him, exchanging every instant of the time you | offer Him for timelessness and peace. |
| W1:99.4 | hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions bring and | offer means by which they are undone without attack and with no touch |
| W1:104.6 | Then lay aside the conflicts of the world that | offer other gifts and other goals made of illusions, witnessed to by |
| W1:105.8 | My brother, peace and joy I | offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:105.13 | My brother, peace and joy I | offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:106.2 | of the dead which tell you they have found the source of life and | offer it to you for your belief. Attend them not, but listen to the |
| W1:106.6 | Hear Him today, and | offer Him your voice to speak to all the multitudes who wait to hear |
| W1:108.7 | we cannot miss. To give is to receive. Today we will attempt to | offer peace to everyone and see how quickly peace returns to us. |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I | offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To everyone I |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I offer quietness. To everyone I | offer peace of mind. To everyone I offer gentleness. |
| W1:108.11 | I offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To everyone I | offer gentleness. |
| W1:109.10 | today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest and | offer it to you. |
| W1:R3.4 | litanies to them. They gave you nothing. But your practicing can | offer everything to you. And so accept its offering and be at peace. |
| W1:R3.7 | faith that you would see their messages and use them for yourself. | Offer them to your mind in that same trust and confidence and faith. |
| W1:121.5 | mind is in despair, without the prospect of a future which can | offer anything but more despair. Yet it regards its judgment of the |
| W1:121.12 | you your savior, saved and saving, healed and whole. Then let him | offer you the light you see in him and let your “enemy” and friend |
| W1:123.6 | the thanks of God today, as you give thanks to Him. For He would | offer you the thanks you give, since He receives your gifts in loving |
| W1:123.7 | Receive His thanks and | offer yours to Him for 15 minutes twice today. And you will realize |
| W1:123.7 | to Him for 15 minutes twice today. And you will realize to Whom you | offer thanks, and Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. This holy |
| W1:124.9 | minute like a diamond set around the mirror that this exercise will | offer you. And you will see Christ's face upon it, in reflection of |
| W1:128.1 | The world you see has nothing that you need to | offer you, nothing that you can use in any way, nor anything at all |
| W1:128.4 | delay and pain, one moment of uncertainty and doubt. The worthless | offer nothing. Certainty of worth cannot be found in worthlessness. |
| W1:129.1 | joy, and capable of offering you peace. Think you this world can | offer that to you? |
| W1:133.8 | Who seeks to take away has been deceived by the illusion loss can | offer gain. Yet loss must offer loss and nothing more. |
| W1:133.8 | has been deceived by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet loss must | offer loss and nothing more. |
| W1:134.6 | forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who | offer it; a quiet blessing where it is received. It does not |
| W1:135.11 | only real defense. Yet is this where you look for its defense? You | offer it protection of a kind from which it gains no benefit at all |
| W1:135.19 | good? Perhaps you have misunderstood His plan, for He would never | offer pain to you. But your defenses did not let you see His loving |
| W1:137.12 | Would you not | offer shelter to God's Will? You but invite your Self to be at home, |
| W1:137.13 | to receive a gift like this? Is not a little time a small expense to | offer for the gift of everything? |
| W1:137.16 | imagined. Now we come together to make well all that was sick and | offer blessing where there was attack. Nor will we let this function |
| W1:138.5 | through learning how to reach them, what they are, and what they | offer you. Decisions are the outcome of your learning, for they rest |
| W1:140.14 | and with peace so deep that no illusion can disturb our minds nor | offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn today. And we |
| W1:R4.6 | understand the lessons that we read and see the meaning which they | offer us. |
| W1:R4.7 | of your mind to learn what each idea you will review that day can | offer you in freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear it of all |
| W1:151.3 | can you judge? Your judgment rests upon the witness that your senses | offer you. Yet witness never falser was than this. But how else do |
| W1:153.11 | has been accomplished. For you will not see the light until you | offer it to all your brothers. As they take it from your hands, so |
| W1:153.16 | At times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will be the most that we can | offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we will forget. At other times |
| W1:154.9 | for that is part of your appointed role. He has not failed to | offer what you need, nor has it been left unaccepted. Yet another |
| W1:155.12 | of your full intent? What way could give you more than everything or | offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The |
| W1:156.4 | because of you. All things that live bring gifts to you and | offer them in gratitude and gladness at your feet. The scent of |
| W1:157.6 | like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our eyes which we can | offer everyone that he may come the sooner to the same experience in |
| W1:158.10 | provides another chance to let Christ's vision shine on you and | offer you the peace of God. |
| W1:160.9 | Today we | offer thanks that Christ has come to search the world for what |
| W1:161.1 | and take a stand against our anger, that our fears may disappear and | offer room to love. Here is salvation in the simple words in which we |
| W1:164.8 | as we behold it in the light in which our Savior looks on us and | offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now our |
| W1:164.8 | a clean and open space within your mind where Christ can come and | offer you the treasure of salvation. He has need of your most holy |
| W1:166.12 | The gifts you have are not for you alone. What He has come to | offer you, you now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His |
| W1:166.15 | Betray it not. Become the living proof of what Christ's touch can | offer everyone. God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in |
| W1:169.7 | but this is now at hand. We do not hasten it, in that what you will | offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what forgiveness means. All |
| W1:R5.3 | walk more certainly and quickly unto You. And we accept the Word You | offer us to unify our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You |
| W1:183.10 | same release you found. You can remember what the world forgot and | offer it your own remembering. You can accept today the part you play |
| W1:185.5 | Now he seeks to go beyond them, recognizing that another dream would | offer nothing more than all the others. Dreams are one to him. And he |
| W1:185.7 | in the place of shifting dreams which seem to change in what they | offer, but are one in nothingness. |
| W1:186.4 | have us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the function He will | offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, our |
| W1:187.9 | your brother offers you are laid upon your altar, with the ones you | offer him beside them. Who could fear to look upon such lovely |
| W1:187.11 | anything we look upon. And to ensure this holy sight is ours, we | offer it to everything we see. For where we see it, it will be |
| W1:188.4 | the light in you shine brighter, adding to the gifts you have to | offer to the world. |
| W1:195.2 | It is insane to | offer thanks because of suffering. But it is equally insane to fail |
| W1:195.4 | You do not | offer God your gratitude because your brother is more slave than you, |
| W1:195.4 | And gratitude can only be sincere if it is joined to love. We | offer thanks to God our Father that in us all things will find their |
| W1:195.6 | completion. We give thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we | offer thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the gifts of God to |
| W1:195.7 | their tired heads against our shoulders as they rest a while. We | offer thanks for them. For if we can direct them to the peace that we |
| W1:197.3 | The world must thank you when you | offer it release from your illusions. Yet your thanks belong to you |
| W1:197.9 | God has given you. But never think that He has ever ceased to | offer thanks to you. |
| W1:R6.11 | To Him I | offer this review for you. I place you in His charge and let Him |
| W1:R6.11 | 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 also not forget |
| W1:212.1 | vain illusions of the world. Only the function God has given me can | offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I accept as mine. |
| W2:I.4 | earned Him the invitation that He seeks to make us happy? We will | offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will now be |
| W2:236.2 | and closed today to every thought but Yours. I rule my mind and | offer it to You. Accept my gift, for it is Yours to me. |
| W2:253.2 | is but Your will in perfect union with my own, which can but | offer glad assent to Yours that It may be extended to itself. |
| W2:258.1 | in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which | offer nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow God's |
| W2:270.2 | to 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:WIHS.3 | by which you would attain what is forever unattainable. And if you | offer them to Him, He will employ the means you made for exile to |
| W2:283.2 | as our only Source and everything created part of us. And so we | offer blessing to all things, uniting lovingly with all the world, |
| W2:291.2 | This day my mind is quiet to receive the thoughts You | offer me. And I accept what comes from You instead of from myself. I |
| W2:295.1 | eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may | offer peace of mind to me and take away all terror and all pain. And |
| W2:304.2 | salvation 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 |
| W2:306.1 | What but Christ's vision would I use today when it can | offer me a day in which I see a world so like to Heaven that an |
| W2:312.1 | therefore see what you would look upon. For vision merely serves to | offer you what you would have. It is impossible to overlook what you |
| W2:315.2 | God. My brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me. Now may I | offer them my thankfulness that gratitude to them may lead me on to |
| W2:318.2 | Let me today, my Father, take the role You | offer me in Your request that I accept Atonement for myself. For thus |
| W2:325.1 | a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to | offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while before he journeys |
| W2:330.1 | and thus escape forever from all things the dream of fear appears to | offer us. |
| W2:332.2 | the means to set it free. Father, we would release it now. For as we | offer freedom, it is given us. And we would not remain as prisoners |
| W2:339.2 | but hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting only what You | offer me, accepting only thoughts You share with me. |
| W2:344.1 | or is or will be. Who can share a dream? And what can an illusion | offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will give me gifts beyond the worth |
| W2:345.2 | Peace to all seeking hearts today. The light has come to | offer miracles to bless the tired world. It will find rest today, for |
| W2:345.2 | to bless the tired world. It will find rest today, for we will | offer what we have received. |
| W2:357.1 | Forgiveness, truth's reflection, tells me how to | offer miracles and thus escape the prison house in which I think I |
| W2:358.1 | Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I want is what You | offer me, in just the form You chose that it be mine. Let me remember |
| W2:FL.4 | Heaven of His peace. And shall we not forgive our brother who can | offer this to us? He is the way, the truth, and life that show the |
| M:5.9 | to turn away from death. Behold, you Son of God, what life can | offer you. Would you choose sickness in place of this? |
| M:11.4 | to those who look on war. Peace is inevitable to those who | offer peace. How easily, then, is your judgment of the world escaped! |
| M:15.4 | that end be soon. It is your function to hold it to your heart and | offer it to all the world to keep it safe. |
| M:21.5 | he would leave behind. Judge not the words that come to you, but | offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than your own. God's |
| M:22.5 | he has refused to accept the Atonement for himself and can hardly | offer it to his brother in Christ's Name. He will, in fact, be unable |
| M:22.6 | The | offer of Atonement is universal. It is equally applicable to all |
| M:23.6 | and dedicated teacher of God forgets his brothers. Yet what he can | offer them is limited by what he learns himself. Then turn to one who |

| Tx:2.51 | The Atonement is the only gift that is worthy of being | offered to the altar of God. This is because of the inestimable value |

| Tx:20.22 | but he will not remain before the shining light the Holy Spirit | offered and you accepted. For there the stranger is made homeless and |
| Tx:20.32 | brother and share with him the power of the release from sin you | offered him. To each who walks this earth in seeming solitude is a |
| Tx:20.42 | the perfect faith that you will one day offer to each other already | offered you. And here the limitless forgiveness you will give each |

| Tx:24.37 | Him and give it there instead? Given to Him, the universe is yours. | Offered to them, no gifts can be returned. What you have given |
| Tx:24.49 | His own creation. And the sign that this is so lies in your brother, | offered you that all your doubts about yourself may disappear before |
| Tx:25.20 | and theirs along with His. The gratitude of God Himself is freely | offered to everyone who shares His purpose. It is not His Will to be |
| Tx:25.66 | is made that sin may be preserved and kept. It is a payment | offered for the cost of sin, but not the total cost. The rest is |
| Tx:25.79 | where all of the treasures given to God's Son are kept for him and | offered anyone who but holds out his hand in willingness they be |
| Tx:25.87 | Each miracle is an example of what justice can accomplish when it is | offered to everyone alike. It is received and given equally. It is |
| Tx:26.51 | it is possible that some are given greater value and less willingly | offered to truth for healing and for help. No illusion has any truth |
| Tx:26.64 | that it be so. And in your hands does all salvation lie, to be both | offered and received as one. |

| Tx:27.44 | itself the instant it is born. And it is born the instant it is | offered and received. No one can ask another to be healed. But he can |
| Tx:27.53 | Peace be to you to whom is healing | offered. And you will learn that peace is given you when you accept |
| Tx:27.76 | all your brother's gifts be seen in light of charity and kindness | offered you. And let no pain disturb your dream of deep appreciation |
| Tx:28.22 | his brother. And it is but this the dream has put together and has | offered him to show him that his wishes have been done. Thus does he |

| Tx:7.72 | When a brother acts insanely, he is | offering you an opportunity to bless him. His need is yours. You need |
| Tx:7.106 | love, which is joy. Every miracle is thus a lesson in truth, and by | offering truth you are learning the difference between pain and joy. |

| Tx:12.39 | tells you that what you have offered yourself is not true, but His | offering to you has never changed. You who know not what you do can |
| Tx:14.22 | He will separate out all that has meaning, dropping off the rest and | offering your true communication to those who would communicate as |
| Tx:14.52 | really offers you, but only to the particular perception of his | offering by which the ego judges it. |
| Tx:14.69 | withhold from you? You have no problems which He cannot solve by | offering you a miracle. Miracles are for you. And every fear or pain |
| Tx:15.22 | is and why you could never be content with it. Littleness is the | offering you gave yourself. You offered this in place of magnitude, |
| Tx:15.51 | aspect. Thus does it assemble reality to its own capricious liking, | offering for your seeking a picture whose likeness does not exist. |

| Tx:16.44 | of the ego are clearest here, for counting on the attraction of this | offering, the fantasies which center around it are often quite open. |
| Tx:17.34 | are faceted like diamonds and gleam in the dim light in which the | offering is made. |
| Tx:17.41 | is there. The frame fades gently, and God rises to your remembrance, | offering you the whole of creation in exchange for your little |

| Tx:20.6 | most carefully, making it ready to receive the gifts it wants by | offering them to those who come unto its chosen home or those it |
| Tx:20.6 | it would attract to it. And there they will exchange their gifts, | offering and receiving what their minds judge to be worthy of them. |

| Tx:21.20 | Perhaps you do not see the need for you to give this little | offering. Look closer, then, at what it is. And very simply see in it |
| Tx:22.22 | life or death; either you are each other's savior or his judge, | offering him sanctuary or condemnation. This course will be believed |
| Tx:22.41 | once you were. How thankful will they be to see you come among them, | offering Christ's forgiveness to dispel their faith in sin. |
| Tx:23.38 | of order as do the others. Each one upholds these laws completely, | offering a certain witness that these laws are true. The seeming |
| Tx:24.3 | Love offers everything forever. Hold back but one belief, one | offering, and love is gone because you asked a substitute to take its |
| Tx:25.22 | is brought together as you join in will that you be made complete by | offering completion to your brother. See not in him the sinfulness he |
| Tx:25.87 | the same for everyone, because it sees no differences in them. Its | offering is universal, and it teaches but one message: |
| Tx:27.16 | merely errors. Let yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, | offering salvation to your brother and yourself. A broken body shows |
| Tx:27.76 | He represents his Father, Whom you see as | offering both life and death to you. Brother, He gives but life. Yet |
| Tx:29.30 | Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each dream becomes an | offering of love. For at its center is His love for you, which lights |

| W1:133.7 | value that is real. What fades and dies was never there and makes no | offering to him who chooses it. He is deceived by nothing in a form |

| W1:182.9 | you might learn of Him how strong is he who comes without defenses, | offering only love's messages to those who think he is their enemy. |
| W1:197.3 | Your gratitude is all your gifts require that they be a lasting | offering of a thankful heart released from hell forever. Is it this |
| W1:198.14 | could give him gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of | offering forgiveness to the Son of Sinlessness Itself, so like to Him |
| W2:279.1 | I wait in chains which have been severed for release, when God is | offering me freedom now? |
| W2:306.2 | open hearts and minds, asking but what You give. We cannot make an | offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your Love, the gift of |

| M:7.2 | therefore hate. His position has thus become untenable, for he is | offering hate to one to whom he offered love. This is impossible. |
| M:7.6 | because you have denied the Source of your creation. If you are | offering only healing, you cannot doubt. If you really want the |
offerings (11) | ||
| Tx:4.100 | to accept such thanks and no perception with which to judge such | offerings. But unless you take your part in the creation, His joy is |
| Tx:11.18 | Let us not save nightmares, for they are not fitting | offerings for Christ, and so they are not fit gifts for you. Take off |
| Tx:12.8 | it for yourself. You have recognized the futility of the ego and its | offerings, but though you do not want the ego, you do not look upon |
| Tx:14.37 | your altars, for nothing can coexist beside it. Here your meager | offerings are brought together with the gift of God, and only what is |
| Tx:15.30 | lives in you, your poor appreciation of yourself and all the little | offerings you have given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of God, |
| Tx:20.5 | all the useless things made for its eyes to see. Think on the many | offerings made for its pleasure and remember all these were made to |
| Tx:20.48 | what they are, it does not even see. It wants them solely for the | offerings on which its idols thrive. The rest it merely throws away, |
| Tx:23.55 | everything could seek for limitation, nor could he value the body's | offerings. The senselessness of conquest is quite apparent from the |
| W1:127.7 | not hold it dear. Withdraw all value you have placed upon its meager | offerings and senseless gifts, and let the gift of God replace them |
| W1:192.3 | in them. And eyes already opening behold the joyful sights their | offerings contain. |

| Tx:1.65 | law by reinterpreting it. The law itself, if properly understood, | offers only protection to man. It is those who have not yet “changed |

| Tx:3.21 | is to attack, and this results in rejection of what the teacher | offers. The result is learning failure. |
| Tx:4.7 | another condition; he must also believe in the students to whom he | offers his ideas. Many stand guard over their ideas because they want |
| Tx:4.48 | it is its own. Against this sense of temporary existence the Soul | offers you the knowledge of permanence and unshakable being. No one |
| Tx:4.62 | for the temptations of the ego and do not be deceived by it. Know it | offers you nothing. When you have given up this voluntary |
| Tx:4.105 | is an attitude of praising God as He Himself knows praise. He | offers praise to you, and you must offer it to others. The chief |
| Tx:5.72 | the belief that you cannot escape from it. But you can and must. God | offers you the continuity of eternity in exchange. When you choose to |
| Tx:6.37 | Wherever He looks He sees Himself, and because He is united, He | offers the whole Kingdom always. This is the one message God gave to |
| Tx:7.61 | If you will keep in mind what the Holy Spirit | offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God and His |
| Tx:8.2 | His Will, how can you have knowledge? I have told you what knowledge | offers you, but it is clear that you do not regard this as wholly |
| Tx:9.49 | you will not tolerate self-abasement and seek relief. Then it | offers you the illusion of attack as a solution. |
| Tx:9.78 | whether its offering is really what you want, for this is what it | offers you. To obtain this you are willing to attack the divinity of |
| Tx:11.39 | hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would keep? The Holy Spirit | offers you another promise, and one that will lead to joy. For His |
| Tx:11.98 | it real and then atoning for it. This is the ego's plan, which it | offers instead of dispelling it. The ego believes in atonement |
| Tx:12.23 | as it is reasonably satisfied with you, as its reasoning goes, it | offers you oblivion. When it becomes overtly savage, it offers you |
| Tx:12.23 | goes, it offers you oblivion. When it becomes overtly savage, it | offers you hell. |
| Tx:12.27 | go. You thus deny yourself the message of release that every brother | offers you now. |
| Tx:12.30 | for now is the closest approximation of eternity which this world | offers. It is in the reality of now, without past or future, that the |
| Tx:12.51 | The present | offers you your brothers in the light that would unite you with them |
| Tx:13.12 | condemnation of yourself, and you will not escape the punishment it | offers those who obey it. The ego rewards fidelity to it with pain, |
| Tx:13.28 | Christ would have you see. His Will is like His Father's, and He | offers mercy to every Child of God, as He would have you do. |
| Tx:13.46 | wander, and there is no possibility that the plan the Holy Spirit | offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone will not be |
| Tx:13.74 | knows no limits. There is nothing their wills will not provide that | offers them anything of value. Yet because they do not understand |
| Tx:13.75 | not try to escape the gift of God which He so freely and so gladly | offers you. He offers you but what God gave Him for you. You need not |
| Tx:13.75 | the gift of God which He so freely and so gladly offers you. He | offers you but what God gave Him for you. You need not decide whether |

| Tx:14.40 | with God beside you. Yet without Him you are nothing. The Atonement | offers you God. The gift which you refused is held by Him in you. His |
| Tx:14.51 | The miracle | offers exactly the same response to every call for help. It does not |
| Tx:14.51 | in it. The power of God is limitless. And being always maximal, it | offers everything to every call from anyone. There is no order of |
| Tx:14.52 | and nothing else. For you do not respond to what a brother really | offers you, but only to the particular perception of his offering by |
| Tx:14.69 | binds not you. He does not see time as you do. And each miracle He | offers you corrects your use of time and makes it His. |
| Tx:14.70 | He is there and works through you. And all His works are yours. He | offers you a miracle with every one you let Him do through you. |
| Tx:15.3 | for you to find peace even in the death it wants for you, it | offers you immortality in hell. It speaks to you of Heaven but |
| Tx:15.13 | blessed instant to you through your giving it. As you give it, He | offers it to you. |

| Tx:16.57 | and into fantasy. Yet for every learning that would hurt you, God | offers you correction and complete escape from all its consequences. |
| Tx:17.68 | it will carry you straight to illusions. Be tempted not by what it | offers you. It interferes not with the goal, but with the value of |
| Tx:17.68 | the value of the goal to you. Accept not the illusion of peace it | offers, but look upon its offering and recognize it is illusion. |
| Tx:18.77 | above it and surrounding it with love is the glorious whole, which | offers all its happiness and deep content to every part. The little |
| Tx:18.81 | its glad coming. In the holy instant, you ask of love only what it | offers everyone, neither less nor more. Asking for everything, you |
| Tx:19.13 | Your holy relationship, with its new purpose, | offers you faith to give unto each other. Your faithlessness had |
| Tx:19.59 | to the first, is the belief that the body is valuable for what it | offers. For here is the attraction of guilt made manifest in the body |
| Tx:19.66 | and all the world will answer. Think of your happiness as everyone | offers you witness of the end of sin and shows you that its power is |
| Tx:19.102 | Beside each of you is one who | offers you the chalice of Atonement, for the Holy Spirit is in him. |
| Tx:19.103 | to you to share His holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still | offers you salvation as His Friend. The “enemies” of Christ, the |
| Tx:20.6 | mind decides on what it would receive and give. And every gift it | offers depends on what it wants. It will adorn its chosen home most |
| Tx:20.8 | of God has not forgiven me. And can I offer him forgiveness when he | offers thorns to me? For he who offers thorns to anyone is against me |
| Tx:20.8 | can I offer him forgiveness when he offers thorns to me? For he who | offers thorns to anyone is against me still, and who is whole without |
| Tx:20.40 | How can you estimate the worth of him who | offers peace to you? What would you want except his offering? His |
| Tx:20.43 | and death must be forgotten. This is no gift your brother's body | offers you. The veil that hides the gift hides him as well. He is the |
| Tx:20.53 | in a false attraction, your preference to the holy instant which | offers you peace and understanding? Then lay aside the body and |
| Tx:20.54 | and love shines on it with the gentle smile and tender blessing it | offers to its own. Here the unholy instant is exchanged in gladness |
| Tx:20.65 | sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the Holy Spirit | offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy relationship achieve |
| Tx:20.68 | be free of misery and learn again of joy? Your holy relationship | offers all this to you. As it was given you, so will be its effects. |

| Tx:22.17 | Truth is the opposite of illusions because it | offers joy. What else but joy could be the opposite of misery? To |
| Tx:22.45 | Reality opposes nothing. What merely is needs no defense and | offers none. Only illusions need defense because of weakness. And how |
| Tx:22.46 | needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the Holy Spirit | offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For sin is carved |

| Tx:23.55 | What can conflict with everything? And what is there that | offers less, yet could be wanted more? Who with the love of God |
| Tx:24.3 | To withhold the smallest gift is not to know love's purpose. Love | offers everything forever. Hold back but one belief, one offering, |
| Tx:24.23 | its purpose must be given to kill. No gift that bears its seal but | offers treachery to giver and receiver. Not one glance from eyes it |
| Tx:24.34 | hated and worthy only of destruction. Whatever gentleness it | offers is but deception, but its hate is real. In danger of |
| Tx:24.41 | form; however lovely it may seem to be; however much it delicately | offers the hope of peace and the escape from pain—in which you |
| Tx:24.46 | upon with Him and share His joy. His perfect lack of specialness He | offers you that you may save all living things from death, receiving |
| Tx:24.46 | receiving from each one the gift of life that your forgiveness | offers to your Self. The sight of Christ is all there is to see. The |
| Tx:25.16 | created He supports and frames within Himself. His masterpiece He | offers you to see. And would you rather see the frame instead of |
| Tx:25.21 | to understand His gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He | offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing has power over you |
| Tx:25.40 | other and save himself along with him. Forgiven by you, your savior | offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he offers death to you. In |
| Tx:25.40 | by you, your savior offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he | offers death to you. In everyone you see but the reflection of what |
| Tx:25.43 | kindness of his sight rests on himself with all the tenderness it | offers others. For he would only heal and only bless. And being in |
| Tx:25.71 | You are not asked to trust Him far. No further than what you see He | offers you and what you recognize you could not give yourself. |
| Tx:25.85 | be received because another could receive it not. Only forgiveness | offers miracles. And pardon must be just to everyone. |
| Tx:26.6 | sings to you. And let the world recede and take the rest his witness | offers on behalf of peace. But judge him not, for you will hear no |
| Tx:26.11 | The Holy Spirit | offers you release from every problem that you think you have. They |
| Tx:26.14 | punish him because you find him guilty and would have him die. God | offers you the means to see his innocence. Would it be fair to punish |
| Tx:26.25 | done nothing to forgive. Forgiveness always rests upon the one who | offers it until he sees himself as needing it no more. And thus is he |

| Tx:4.12 | It is natural enough for the ego to try to protect itself | once you have made it, but it is not natural for you to want to obey |
| Tx:4.14 | do this because I have no right to set your learning limits for you. | Once again—nothing you do or think or wish or make is necessary to |
| Tx:4.17 | than He can avoid you. The ego is afraid of the Soul's joy because, | once you have experienced it, you will withdraw all protection from |
| Tx:4.20 | I could not understand their importance to you if I had not | once been tempted to believe in them myself. |
| Tx:4.53 | for the Holy One to enter. We will prepare for this together, for | once He has come, you will be ready to help me make other minds ready |
| Tx:4.72 | solution. It obliterates the question from the mind's awareness. | Once unconscious, the question can and does produce uneasiness, but |
| Tx:5.59 | you to create. The word “create” is appropriate here because, | once what you have made is undone by the Holy Spirit, the blessed |
| Tx:6.2 | at all, and no one can organize his life without any thought system. | Once he has developed a thought system of any kind, he lives by it |
| Tx:6.25 | before that the separation was and is dissociation and also that, | once it had occurred, projection became its main defense or the |
| Tx:6.42 | in others, your own mind perceives itself as totally harmless. | Once it can accept this fully, it does not see the need to protect |
| Tx:6.52 | are as certain as God because you are as true as He is, but what was | once quite certain in your minds has become only the ability for |
| Tx:6.69 | Having taken the first step, however, they will be helped. | Once they have chosen what they cannot complete alone, they are no |
| Tx:6.94 | healed. Your vigilance against this sickness is the way to heal it. | Once your mind is healed, it radiates health and thereby teaches |
| Tx:7.19 | To heal is to liberate totally. We | once said there is no order of difficulty in miracles, because they |
| Tx:7.82 | We | once said that without projection there can be no anger, but it is |
| Tx:8.22 | what the ego has made of you. This is your responsibility, because | once you have really done this, you will accept the Atonement for |
| Tx:8.80 | We | once said that the Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to |
| Tx:9.14 | He knows how to fulfill it perfectly. That is what we meant when we | once said that miracles are natural, and when they do not occur, |
| Tx:9.50 | between miracle impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its own. We | once said that the ego is aware of threat, but does not make |
| Tx:9.66 | loving seems possible to you, but you do not remember yet that it | once was so. And it is in this remembering that you will know it can |
| Tx:9.66 | again. What is possible has not yet been accomplished. Yet what has | once been is so now if it is eternal. When you remember, you will |
| Tx:10.44 | source is not natural, being out of accord with your true nature. We | once said that to will contrary to God is wishful thinking and not |
| Tx:11.24 | I | once asked if you were willing to sell all you have and give to the |
| Tx:11.32 | We | once said that God so loved the world that He gave it to His |
| Tx:11.44 | happened. Therefore, by attacking you have not done anything. | Once you realize this, there is no longer any sense in attack, for it |
| Tx:12.6 | We | once said that the crucifixion is the symbol of the ego. When it was |
| Tx:14.22 | who would communicate as truly with you. You speak two languages at | once, and this must lead to unintelligibility. Yet if one means |
| Tx:14.48 | can be simultaneous and legion. This is not difficult to understand, | once you conceive of them as possible at all. What is more difficult |
| Tx:15.16 | been removed? Truth is so far beyond time that all of it happens at | once. For as it was created one, so its oneness depends not on time |
| Tx:15.26 | be content with less than his Father has given him. We asked you | once before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to God?” Let |
| Tx:15.39 | will be yours. I call to you to make the holy instant yours at | once, for the release from littleness in the mind of the host of God |
| Tx:15.53 | frame of reference you have built by which to judge your brothers. | Once this is gone, the Holy Spirit substitutes His frame of reference |
| Tx:15.85 | this willingness, it will not leave you, for it is permanent. For | once you have accepted it as the only perception you want, it is |
| Tx:15.95 | It is possible to do this all at | once because there is but one shift in perception that is necessary, |
| Tx:16.7 | this be, and do not try to substitute your “miracle” for this. We | once said that if a brother asks a foolish thing of you, to do it. |
| Tx:16.22 | You have taught freedom, but you have not learned how to be free. We | once said, “By their fruits ye shall know them, and they shall know |
| Tx:16.63 | also visible, and this spark cannot be limited long to littleness. | Once you have crossed the bridge, the value of the body is so |
| Tx:17.18 | unholy relationship begins to fade and to be questioned almost at | once. Once it is formed, doubt must enter in because its purpose is |
| Tx:17.18 | relationship begins to fade and to be questioned almost at once. | Once it is formed, doubt must enter in because its purpose is |
| Tx:17.45 | time in introducing the practical results of asking Him to enter. At | once His goal replaces yours. This is accomplished very rapidly, but |
| Tx:17.45 | pursuit of the old goal reestablished in another relationship. For | once the unholy relationship has accepted the goal of holiness, it |
| Tx:17.50 | will come to haunt you and to remind you of all the ways you | once sought for satisfaction and thought you found it. Forget not now |
| Tx:17.72 | called forth the faith in you. And you will see the means you | once employed to lead you to illusions transformed to means for |
| Tx:18.1 | would but consider exactly what this entails, you would perceive at | once how much at variance this is with the goal the Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:18.4 | over and over, that it is now almost impossible to perceive it | once was one and still is what it was. That one error, which brought |
| Tx:18.20 | as means for waking. You would have used them to remain asleep. We | once said that the first change, before dreams disappear, is that |
| Tx:18.79 | dust. Give them a place of refuge, prepared by love for them where | once a desert was. And everyone you welcome will bring love with him |
| Tx:19.47 | remnant of the belief in sin, is all that remains of what | once seemed to be the world. It is no longer an unrelenting barrier |
| Tx:19.99 | This is the place to which everyone must come when he is ready. | Once he has found his brother, he is ready. Yet merely to reach the |
| Tx:20.16 | is lost if any shift or change is undertaken. For this reduces it at | once to mere perception—a way of looking in which certainty is lost |
| Tx:20.35 | that God would have a plan for your salvation that does not work. | Once you accept His plan as the one function that you would fulfill, |
| Tx:20.74 | and they are gone. And all you need to do is recognize you did this. | Once you accept this simple fact and take unto yourself the power you |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief become attached to vision, as all the means that | once served sin are redirected now toward holiness. For what you |
| Tx:21.45 | And it desired nothing but to join with him and to be free again, as | once it was. It has been waiting for the birth of freedom, the |
| Tx:21.56 | enters not at all in this. For the perception would fall away at | once if reason were applied. There is no reason in insanity, for it |
| Tx:21.57 | Here was the Holy Spirit's purpose accepted and accomplished both at | once. Reason is alien to insanity, and those who use it have gained a |
| Tx:21.73 | an enemy, but this will shift even as it attacks, so that it runs at | once to find another and never comes to rest in victory. And as it |
| Tx:21.88 | you receive and happiness is constant, then you need ask for it but | once to have it always. And if you do not have it always, being what |
| Tx:22.41 | you will bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary now as | once you were. How thankful will they be to see you come among them, |
| Tx:23.6 | kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and everything you | once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How |
| Tx:24.6 | with it. And thus does specialness become a means and end at | once. For specialness not only sets apart but serves as grounds from |
| Tx:25.32 | of change unless the aim is changed. And then the means are chosen | once again, as what will bring rejoicing is defined another way and |
| Tx:25.42 | your attack believe He hates you, thinking Heaven must be hell. Look | once again upon your brother, not without the understanding that he |
| Tx:26.15 | one whom you wish to be preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider | once again your special function. One is given you to see in him his |
| Tx:26.16 | they disappear, to be forever undone and unremembered. What seemed | once to be a special problem, a mistake without a remedy, or an |
| Tx:26.24 | where the separation is undone by change of purpose in what | once was specialness and now is union? All illusions are but one. And |
| Tx:26.27 | to the Source of its creation? The holiest of altars is set where | once sin was believed to be. And here does every light of heaven come |
| Tx:26.29 | Where sin | once was perceived will rise a world which will become an altar to |
| Tx:26.40 | of the past remains, but still a present light is dimly recognized. | Once it is seen, this light can never be forgotten. It must draw you |
| Tx:26.47 | all that must occur for healing to be possible. For when it | once is possible, it must occur. All sickness comes from separation. |
| Tx:27.68 | Once you were unaware of what the cause of everything the world | |
| Tx:27.73 | gave instead of yours. It is not difficult to [shift] a dream when | once the dreamer has been recognized. |
| Tx:27.79 | single lesson does it try to teach again, and still again, and yet | once more that it is cause and not effect. And you are its effect and |
| Tx:27.81 | could never have conceived this world as real. He would have seen at | once that these ideas are one illusion, too ridiculous for anything |
| Tx:27.84 | that others do to you exactly what you think you did to them. But | once deluded into blaming them, you will not see the cause of what |
| Tx:29.41 | when it has no use. Its purpose ended; it is gone. And where it | once held seeming sway is now restored the function God established |
| Tx:29.67 | he is not, for childish things have all been put away. And what was | once a dream of judgment now has changed into a dream where all is |
| Tx:29.68 | though he has not heard it since before all time began. Forgiveness, | once complete, brings timelessness so close the song of Heaven can be |
| Tx:30.11 | 3. Remember | once again the day you want and recognize that something has occurred |
| Tx:30.14 | you of what you really want. This can be very hard to realize when | once you have decided by yourself the rules which promise you a happy |
| Tx:30.28 | for practicing the rules for its undoing. Let us, then, consider | once again the very first of the decisions which are offered here. |
| Tx:30.35 | Look | once again upon your enemy, the one you chose to hate instead of |
| Tx:31.34 | before the bleakness enters. And on some the thorns are felt at | once. The choice is not what will the ending be but when it comes. |
| Tx:31.84 | Choose | once again if you would take your place among the saviors of the |
| Tx:31.87 | Trials are but lessons which you failed to learn presented | once again, so where you made a faulty choice before, you now can |
| Tx:31.92 | of weakness, opening the way to his salvation and release. Choose | once again what you would have him be, remembering that every choice |
| Tx:31.94 | so many chances to perceive another situation where God's gift can | once again be recognized as ours! And thus will all the vestiges of |
| W1:10.1 | comparison as yet. When you do, you will have no doubt that what you | once believed were your thoughts did not mean anything. |
| W1:11.3 | On concluding the exercises, close your eyes and repeat the idea | once more, slowly, to yourself. |
| W1:26.15 | Conclude each practice period by repeating today's idea | once more. |
| W1:27.7 | by this, but do try to keep on your schedule from then on. If only | once during the day you feel that you were perfectly sincere while |
| W1:29.7 | to the assigned practice periods, repeat the idea for today at least | once an hour, looking slowly about you as you say the words |
| W1:29.7 | about you as you say the words unhurriedly to yourself. At least | once or twice you should experience a sense of restfulness as you do |
| W1:39.2 | But do you believe that guilt is hell? If you did, you would see at | once how direct and simple the text is, and you would not need a |
| W1:39.12 | End each practice period by repeating the idea in its original form | once more, and adding: |
| W1:40.1 | are required today, but very frequent short ones are necessary. | Once every ten minutes would be highly desirable, and you are urged |
| W1:42.7 | If such interferences occur, open your eyes and repeat the thought | once more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat the |
| W1:42.7 | more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat the idea | once more, and then continue to look for related thoughts in your |
| W1:R1.2 | in considering them, though each one should be practiced at least | once. Devote two minutes or more to each practice period, thinking |
| W1:R1.2 | one. At the end of the day, however, be sure to review all of them | once more. |
| W1:58.5 | my salvation. It is also recognizing the salvation of the world. | Once I have accepted my holiness, nothing can make me afraid. And |
| W1:64.9 | At least | once devote ten or 15 minutes to reflecting on this with closed eyes. |
| W1:65.5 | idea for today. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to yourself | once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever thoughts |
| W1:65.11 | Finally, repeat the idea for today | once more and devote the rest of the practice period to trying to |
| W1:65.11 | the relief its acceptance will bring you by resolving your conflicts | once and for all, and the extent to which you really want salvation |
| W1:65.12 | In the shorter practice periods, which should be undertaken at least | once an hour, use this form in applying today's idea: |
| W1:73.4 | Today we will try | once more to reach the world that is in accordance with your will. |
| W1:76.2 | seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for today tells you | once again how simple is salvation. Look for it where it waits for |
| W1:98.13 | And when the hour is gone and He is there | once more to spend a little time with you, be thankful and lay down |
| W1:98.13 | and limited ideas, and spend a happy time again with Him. Tell Him | once more that you accept the part which He would have you take and |
| W1:102.1 | makes no sense. It has not gone as yet but lacks the roots that | once secured it tightly to the dark and hidden secret places of your |
| W1:129.2 | It might be worth a little time to think | once more about the value of this world. Perhaps you will concede |
| W1:129.7 | to make this change ten minutes in the morning and at night and | once more in between. Begin with this: |
| W1:130.2 | Yet who can really hate and love at | once? Who can desire what he does not want to have reality? And who |
| W1:132.10 | A lesson earlier repeated | once must now be stressed again, for it contains the firm foundation |
| W1:134.5 | condemned—first by themselves for what they think they did and | once again by those who pardon them. |
| W1:139.8 | a mission here. We did not come to reinforce the madness which we | once believed in. Let us not forget the goal that we accepted. It is |
| W1:152.7 | to triumph over life—all this is arrogance. Humility would see at | once these things are not of Him. And can you see what God created |
| W1:158.4 | point at which it ended, looking back on it, imagining we make it | once again; reviewing mentally what has gone by. |
| W1:161.11 | If you are intent on reaching it, you will succeed today. And | once you have succeeded, you will not be willing to accept the |
| W1:163.3 | hard to gain, uncertain in their outcome, apt to fail the hopes they | once engendered and to leave the taste of dust and ashes in their |
| W1:163.7 | insane have difficulty in believing it. For it implies that God was | once alive and somehow perished, killed, apparently, by those who did |
| W1:R5.10 | Release me as you practice | once again the thoughts I brought to you from Him Who sees your |
| W1:R5.14 | period of practice time. And with this thought we sleep, to waken | once again with these same words upon our lips to greet another day. |
| W1:181.10 | The world which | once proclaimed our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And |
| W1:183.7 | words we use except at the beginning, when we say today's idea but | once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought, our only word, |
| W1:187.7 | to take. And sacrifice is an idea so mad that sanity dismisses it at | once. |
| W1:195.7 | Word re-echoes in our memory and gathers clarity as we are willing | once again to hear. |
| W1:196.8 | you take this one today. From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For | once you understand it is impossible that you be hurt except by your |
| W1:196.10 | mind so wholly that escape appears quite hopeless. When you realize | once and for all that it is you you fear, the mind perceives itself |
| M:1.1 | in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone else's. | Once he has done that, his road is established and his direction is |
| M:2.1 | him, for his coming is certain. Again, it is only a matter of time. | Once he has chosen to fulfill his role, they are ready to fulfill |

| M:5.10 | Not | once do the advanced teachers of God consider the forms of sickness |
| M:6.3 | outcome of their gifts. It is merely their function to give them. | Once they have done that, they have also given the outcome, for that |

| M:20.4 | How is the peace of God retained | once it is found? Returning anger, in whatever form, will drop the |
| M:20.4 | Returning anger, in whatever form, will drop the heavy curtain | once again, and the belief that peace cannot exist will certainly |
| M:20.4 | return. War is again accepted as the one reality. Now must you | once again lay down your sword, although you may not recognize that |
| M:24.1 | nor future, and the idea of birth into a body has no meaning either | once or many times. Reincarnation cannot, then, be true in any real |

| W2:325.1 | projected outward, looked upon, esteemed as real, and guarded as | one's own. From insane wishes comes an insane world. From judgment |
| M:I.1 | activity in which one engages only a relatively small proportion of | one's time. The course, on the other hand, emphasizes that to teach |
| M:4.4 | When this Power has once been experienced, it is impossible to trust | one's own petty strength again. Who would attempt to fly with the |

| Tx:2.102 | The Sonship in its | oneness does transcend the sum of its parts. However, this is |

| Tx:5.5 | Healing is an act of thought by which two minds perceive their | oneness and become glad. This gladness calls to every part of the |
| Tx:5.29 | its power to attract the whole Sonship and to bring it back into the | Oneness in which it was created. Remember that “yoke” means “join |

| Tx:10.15 | be so. God's Will is that His Son be one, and united with Him in His | Oneness. That is why healing is the beginning of the recognition that |
| Tx:10.68 | all of God's Sons are of equal value, and their equality is their | oneness. The whole power of God is in every part of Him, and nothing |
| Tx:11.94 | And only as you look upon him as guiltless can you understand his | oneness. For the idea of guilt brings a belief in condemnation of one |

| Tx:14.71 | Creator as is His Son, and through His Teacher does God proclaim His | Oneness and His Son's. Listen in silence, and do not raise your voice |
| Tx:14.71 | do not raise your voice against Him. For He teaches the miracle of | oneness, and before His lesson division disappears. Teach like Him |
| Tx:15.16 | that all of it happens at once. For as it was created one, so its | oneness depends not on time at all. |
| Tx:15.46 | is to be guilty. For to experience yourself as alone is to deny the | oneness of the Father and his Son and thus to attack reality. |
| Tx:15.102 | by recognizing that His Host is One, and no thought alien to His | Oneness can abide with Him there. Love must be total to give Him |
| Tx:16.37 | with them. Acceptance of your creations is the acceptance of the | oneness of creation, without which you could never be complete. No |
| Tx:18.49 | is not a place nor a condition. It is merely an awareness of perfect | Oneness and the knowledge that there is nothing else; nothing outside |

| Tx:22.62 | If you were one with God and recognized this | oneness, you would know His power is yours. But you will not remember |
| Tx:24.14 | from himself and Him of Whom they are a part. Nor do they love the | Oneness Which created them as one with Him. They chose their |

| Tx:25.10 | for while you think that part of you is separate, the concept of a | oneness joined as one is meaningless. It is apparent that a mind so |
| Tx:25.10 | It is apparent that a mind so split could never be the teacher of a | Oneness which unites all things within itself. And so What is within |
| Tx:26.2 | The world you see is based on “sacrifice” of | oneness. It is a picture of a complete disunity and total lack of |

| Tx:26.18 | one reality, one truth, and but one Son. Nothing conflicts with | oneness. How, then, could there be complexity in Him? What is there |

| Tx:20.35 | time, there is so much that must be done before the way to peace is | open. Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But ask yourself if it is |
| Tx:20.54 | of safe return. Here is the way to true relationships held gently | open, through which you walk together, leaving the body thankfully |

| Tx:21.57 | is far beyond attainment of any kind. But reason can serve to | open doors you closed against it. |

| Tx:30.82 | only if its aim could change with every situation could each one be | open to interpretation which is different every time you think of it. |
| Tx:31.32 | And what they see upholds their freedom from imprisonment and death. | Open your mind to change, and there will be no ancient penalty |
| Tx:31.45 | upon its innocence, provoking it to irritation and at last to | open insult and abuse. |

| Tx:10.54 | of the laws of perception are, and would have to be, the exact | opposite of the Holy Spirit's. The ego focuses on error and overlooks |

| Tx:12.29 | It is evident that the Holy Spirit's perception of time is the exact | opposite of the ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they perceive |
| Tx:12.38 | is soundless. Your behavioral manifestations of emotions are the | opposite of what the emotions are. You communicate with no one, and |
| Tx:13.47 | that His conclusions are not insane. They take a direction exactly | opposite, pointing as clearly to Heaven as the ego points to darkness |

| Tx:17.61 | the outcome because you are at peace. Here again, you see the | opposite of the ego's way of looking, for the ego believes the |
| Tx:19.4 | to be sick, for you have made of it an “enemy” of healing and the | opposite of truth. |
| Tx:19.5 | It cannot be difficult to realize that faith must be the | opposite of faithlessness. Yet the difference in how they operate is |

| Tx:23.1 | Do you not see the | opposite of frailty and weakness is sinlessness? Innocence is |
| Tx:23.32 | seen as truth to be believed. And if it is the truth, then must its | opposite, which was the truth before, be madness now. Such a |
| Tx:26.18 | makes choice [complex]. The truth is simple—it is one, without an | opposite. And how could strife enter in its simple presence and bring |
| Tx:26.49 | Perception's laws are | opposite to truth, and what is true of knowledge is not true of |
| Tx:26.52 | for hell. If this were so, would Heaven be opposed by its own | opposite, as real as it. Then would God's Will be split in two and |
| Tx:27.29 | it into something it is not. To weaken is to limit and impose an | opposite that contradicts the concept which it attacks. And by this |
| Tx:27.32 | where He is, there must the truth abide. Unweakened power with no | opposite is what creation is. For this there are no symbols. Nothing |
| Tx:27.35 | power unlimited and single thoughts, complete and happy, without | opposite. You do not know the peace of power which opposes nothing. |
| Tx:28.61 | where the healing lies. What could correct for separation but its | opposite? There is no middle ground in any aspect of salvation. You |
| Tx:28.63 | The choice of sickness seems to be a form, yet it is one, as is its | opposite. And you are sick or well accordingly. |
| Tx:31.62 | If one is real the other must be false, for what is real denies its | opposite. There is no choice in vision but this one. What you decide |
| Tx:31.68 | task. For it must deal in contrasts, not in truth, which has no | opposite and cannot change. In this world's concepts are the guilty |

| W1:70.4 | where the need for healing lies. You have tried to do just the | opposite, making every attempt, however distorted and fantastic it |
| W1:71.1 | to God's. It is this plan in which you believe. Since it is the | opposite of God's, you also believe that to accept God's plan in |
| W1:71.14 | Holding grievances is the | opposite of God's plan for salvation. And only His plan will work. |
| W1:72.1 | While we have recognized that the ego's plan for salvation is the | opposite of God's, we have not yet emphasized that it is an active |
| W1:99.14 | learn to lay all fear aside and know your Self as Love Which has no | opposite in you. |
| W1:103.2 | as limited and introducing opposition in what has no limit and no | opposite. Fear is associated then with love, and its results become |
| W1:127.3 | principle which rules where love is not. Love is a law without an | opposite. Its wholeness is the power holding everything as one, the |
| W1:129.11 | Now do we understand there is no loss, for we have seen its | opposite at last, and we are grateful that the choice is made. |
| W1:130.6 | see is proof you have already made a choice as all-embracing as its | opposite. What we would learn today is more than just the lesson that |
| W1:131.8 | effect of one and earth the other's sorry outcome that is Heaven's | opposite in every way. |
| W1:131.10 | the Will of God? He thus denies himself and contradicts what has no | opposite. He thinks he made a hell opposing Heaven and believes that |
| W1:137.1 | the central thought on which salvation rests. For healing is the | opposite of all the world's ideas which dwell on sickness and on |
| W1:138.1 | are alternatives to choose between. We think that all things have an | opposite, and what we want we choose. If Heaven exists, there must be |
| W1:138.1 | make what we perceive and what we think is real. Creation knows no | opposite. But here is opposition part of being “real.” |
| W1:138.4 | at all, for truth is true and nothing else is real. There is no | opposite to choose instead. There is no contradiction to the truth. |
| W1:152.2 | Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at all. Accept no | opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict the truth |
| W1:152.3 | without the second is the first no longer true. Truth cannot have an | opposite. This cannot be too often said and thought about. For if |
| W1:163.4 | of God Himself perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the | opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than |
| W1:163.6 | what contradicts one thought entirely cannot be true unless its | opposite is proven false. |
| W1:166.2 | real must still believe there is another will, and one that leads to | opposite effects from those He wills. Impossible indeed, but every |
| W1:167.1 | which all that God created share. Like all His thoughts, it has no | opposite. There is no death because what God created shares His Life. |
| W1:167.1 | what God created shares His Life. There is no death because an | opposite to God does not exist. There is no death because the Father |
| W1:167.2 | In this world there appears to be a state that is life's | opposite. You call it death. Yet we have learned that the idea of |
| W1:167.7 | The | opposite of life can only be another form of life. As such, it can be |
| W1:167.7 | As such, it can be reconciled with what created it because it is not | opposite in truth. Its form may change; it may appear to be what it |
| W1:167.7 | what it is not. Yet mind is mind, awake or sleeping. It is not its | opposite in anything created nor in what it seems to make when it |
| W1:167.8 | which He does not share with them. The thought of death is not the | opposite to thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any |
| W1:167.9 | What seems to be the | opposite of life is merely sleeping. When the mind elects to be what |

| W1:169.2 | alone the hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a state so | opposite to everything the world contains that those whose minds are |
| W1:170.4 | which seem wholly irreconcilable. For love now has an “enemy,” an | opposite; and fear, the alien, now needs your defense against the |
| W2:WS.2 | was no need for such a thought before, for peace was given without | opposite and merely was. But when the mind is split, there is a need |
| W2:259.2 | today. I would not be afraid of love nor seek for refuge in its | opposite. For love can have no opposite. You are the Source of |
| W2:259.2 | of love nor seek for refuge in its opposite. For love can have no | opposite. You are the Source of everything that is. And everything |
| W2:WIRW.1 | like the rest of what perception offers. Yet it stands for what is | opposite to what you made. Your world is seen through eyes of fear |
| W2:WICR.3 | Creation is the | opposite of all illusions, for creation is the truth. Creation is the |
| W2:WAI.1 | me is love perfected, fear impossible, and joy established without | opposite. I am the holy home of God Himself. I am the Heaven where |

| M:7.4 | of trust. As such, it is an attack. Usually it seems to be just the | opposite. It does appear unreasonable at first to be told that |
| M:7.4 | impossible, and doubt and trust cannot coexist. And hate must be the | opposite of love, regardless of the form it takes. Doubt not the |
| M:11.2 | true. For they say different things about the world, and things so | opposite that it is pointless to try to reconcile them. God offers |
| M:19.2 | Justice, like its | opposite, is an interpretation. It is, however, the one |
| M:20.3 | For what except attack will lead to war? And what but peace is | opposite to war? Here the initial contrast stands out clear and |
| M:20.5 | because it is not life in which the problem lies. Life has no | opposite, for it is God. Life and death seem to be opposites, because |

| Tx:11.25 | in it. If you insist on refusing and experience a quick response of | opposition, you are believing that your salvation lies in not doing |
| Tx:11.27 | “outrageous,” do it because it does not matter. Refuse and your | opposition establishes that it does matter to you. It is only you, |
| Tx:11.65 | For this belief is the destruction of peace, a goal in direct | opposition to the Holy Spirit's purpose. You see what you expect, and |
| Tx:11.69 | invitations. You have looked upon your minds and accepted | opposition there, having sought it there. But do not then believe |
| Tx:11.69 | sought it there. But do not then believe that the witnesses for | opposition are true, for they attest only to your decision about |
| Tx:13.20 | believed to be less fearful. You are therefore willing with little | opposition to look upon all sorts of “sources” underneath awareness, |
| Tx:17.75 | you need for peace. But rise you not against it, for against your | opposition it cannot come. |
| Tx:19.18 | Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of God open to | opposition and defeat. Sin is the “grand illusion” underlying all the |
| Tx:19.33 | creation would have a different will, opposed to His and in eternal | opposition to Him and to each other. Your holy relationship has as |
| Tx:19.42 | would place upon the whole. God's Will is One, not many. It has no | opposition, for there is none beside it. What you would still contain |

| Tx:19.80 | to life and innocence and to the Will of God Himself. Where can such | opposition lie but in the sick minds of the insane, dedicated to |
| Tx:22.24 | thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be different from it, and in | opposition to it. If this were true, thoughts would not be the mind's |
| Tx:22.30 | can be corrected, and thus it must have been an error. The ego's | opposition to correction leads to its fixed belief in sin and |
| Tx:22.45 | that they contradict reality. They go against what must be true. The | opposition comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes nothing. |

| Tx:27.29 | Power cannot oppose. For | opposition would weaken it, and weakened power is a contradiction in |
| Tx:30.9 | practiced well, will serve to let you be directed without fear, for | opposition will not first arise and then become a problem in itself. |
| Tx:30.14 | Try to observe this rule without delay despite your | opposition. For you have already gotten angry, and your fear of being |

| Tx:30.30 | and you can see there cannot be coercion here nor grounds for | opposition that you may be free. There is no freedom from what must |
| Tx:31.22 | images you made. The old will fall away before the new without your | opposition or intent. There will be no attack upon the things you |

| W1:76.6 | you realize that it applies to everything that you have made in | opposition to His Will. Your magic has no meaning. What it is meant |
| W1:103.2 | would limit happiness by redefining love as limited and introducing | opposition in what has no limit and no opposite. Fear is associated |
| W1:138.1 | and what we think is real. Creation knows no opposite. But here is | opposition part of being “real.” |
| W1:138.2 | fear, for this would be the error truth can be brought to illusions. | Opposition makes the truth unwelcome, and it cannot come. |
| W1:138.7 | overcome by death. In death alone are opposites resolved, for ending | opposition is to die. And thus salvation must be seen as death, for |

| Tx:4.97 | for the reception of His Mind and Will. Since only beings of a like | order can truly communicate, His creations naturally communicate with |
| Tx:5.52 | alone. Listening to one voice means the will to share the voice in | order to hear it yourself. The mind that was in me is still |

| Tx:6.63 | mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the Holy Spirit, there is no | order of difficulty in miracles. This is familiar enough to you by |
| Tx:6.64 | appreciation. Nothing more and nothing less. Without a range, an | order of difficulty is meaningless, and there must be no range in |

| Tx:7.19 | To heal is to liberate totally. We once said there is no | order of difficulty in miracles, because they are all maximal |
| Tx:7.34 | part of Him. The miracles which the Holy Spirit inspires can have no | order of difficulty, because every part of creation is of one order. |
| Tx:7.34 | no order of difficulty, because every part of creation is of one | order. This is God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, |
| Tx:7.36 | heal. As you heal you are healed, because the Holy Spirit sees no | order of healing. Healing is the way to undo the belief in |
| Tx:7.82 | the fundamental law of sharing by which you give what you value in | order to keep it in your own mind. |
| Tx:7.86 | and this in turn forces them to engage in compulsive activity in | order not to recognize this. You cannot perpetuate an illusion about |
| Tx:7.107 | as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to yourselves that there is no | order of difficulty in miracles, you will convince yourselves that in |
| Tx:8.59 | this is impossible, since it seems to involve the translation of one | order of reality into another. Different orders of reality merely |

| Tx:10.4 | from our Father to offer you everything again. Do not refuse it in | order to keep a dark cornerstone hidden, for its protection will not |
| Tx:10.68 | believe that yours is limited, you are limiting mine. There is no | order of difficulty in miracles because all of God's Sons are of |
| Tx:11.61 | situations. You will recognize that you have learned there is no | order of difficulty in miracles when you have applied them to all |
| Tx:11.77 | yet you are surprised that you cannot see it. If you seek love in | order to attack it, you will never find it. For if love is sharing, |

| Tx:14.50 | must be in you. For the ego is chaos, and if it were all of you, no | order at all would be possible. Yet though the order which you impose |

| Tx:1.21 | Through miracles, man accepts God's forgiveness by extending it to | others. |
| Tx:1.31 | As you share my inability to tolerate lack of love in yourself and | others, you must join the Great Crusade to correct it. The slogan for |
| Tx:1.34 | were specifically told to be physicians of the Lord and to heal | others. They were also told to heal themselves and were promised that |
| Tx:1.37 | which are genuinely interpersonal and result in real closeness to | others. This can be misunderstood by a personally willful |
| Tx:1.53 | always involves. Error is lack of love. When man projects this onto | others, he does imprison them, but only to the extent that he |
| Tx:1.53 | have already made. This makes them vulnerable to the distortions of | others since their own perception of themselves is distorted. The |
| Tx:1.64 | The Golden Rule asks you to behave toward | others as you would have them behave toward you. This means that the |
| Tx:1.64 | the perception of your own holiness and perceive the holiness of | others. |
| Tx:1.96 | Since this makes it inevitable that they will extend them to | others, a strong chain of Atonement is welded. However, |
| Tx:2.16 | on the other. Some miracles may seem to be of greater magnitude than | others. But remember the first point in this course—that there is |
| Tx:2.17 | expressions of lack of love. These can be either from yourself and | others or from yourself to others or from others to you. Peace is an |

| Tx:4.10 | greatest strengths now, because you must change your mind and help | others change theirs. It is pointless to refuse to tolerate change |
| Tx:4.18 | Release yourselves and release | others. Do not present a false and unworthy picture of yourself to |
| Tx:4.18 | others. Do not present a false and unworthy picture of yourself to | others, and do not accept such a picture of them yourselves. The ego |
| Tx:4.19 | Of your egos you can do nothing to save yourselves or | others, but of your Souls you can do everything for the salvation of |

| Tx:4.105 | knows praise. He offers praise to you, and you must offer it to | others. The chief handicaps of the clinicians lie in their attitudes |
| Tx:4.105 | You can do much on behalf of your own rehabilitation and that of | others if in a situation calling for healing you think of it this way: |
| Tx:5.2 | forth different kinds of responses at the same time and thus deprive | others of the joy of responding whole-heartedly. To be whole-hearted, |
| Tx:5.41 | just as the Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you perceive in | others, you are strengthening in yourself. You let your mind |
| Tx:5.44 | for yourself. That exception has given you more than perception for | others because of what you saw in them but less than knowledge of |
| Tx:5.75 | generation,” and also “The wicked shall perish.” There are many | others, but if you will let the Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His |
| Tx:6.7 | it does, you must be accepting false premises and teaching them to | others. The message which the crucifixion was intended to teach was |
| Tx:6.13 | was perfectly clear that this was only because of the projection of | others, because I had not harmed anyone and had healed many. We are |
| Tx:6.14 | On the contrary, by enabling yourselves to hear the Holy Spirit in | others, you can learn from their experiences and gain from them |
| Tx:6.29 | as perfect. Knowing this perfection is shared, He recognizes it in | others, thus strengthening it in both. Instead of anger, this arouses |
| Tx:6.39 | the same. We began with having and being and more recently have used | others. Hearing and being are examples, to which we can also add |
| Tx:6.42 | only the Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in | others, your own mind perceives itself as totally harmless. Once it |
| Tx:6.43 | you will learn the truth that will set you free and keep you so, as | others learn it of you. The only way to have peace is to teach peace. |
| Tx:6.73 | its own split, and thus does not perceive consistent minds in | others, making him suspicious of their motivation. This is the real |
| Tx:6.73 | aware of the ego in himself and responding primarily to the ego in | others, he is being taught to react to both as if what he does |
| Tx:6.88 | in the third step, which brings together the lessons implied in the | others and goes beyond them towards real integration. |
| Tx:7.13 | an ego term, because “personal” implies “of one person” and not of | others. “Interpersonal” has a similar error in that it refers to |
| Tx:7.14 | that you will learn what you are from what you have projected onto | others and therefore believe they are. In the Kingdom there is no |
| Tx:7.42 | that he does not understand God if he thinks he has something that | others [do not]. You might well ask, then, why some healing can |
| Tx:7.78 | of it, and by projecting your own rejection, you believe that | others are taking it from you. One must be fearful if he believes |
| Tx:7.79 | this is what he believes. Projection always sees your will in | others. If you will to separate yourself from God, that is what you |
| Tx:7.79 | you will to separate yourself from God, that is what you will think | others are doing to you. |
| Tx:8.28 | and abide in His Will. As God sent me to you, so will I send you to | others, and I will go to them with you so we can teach them [union |
| Tx:8.54 | separates through the body. The Holy Spirit reaches through it to | others. You do not perceive your brothers as the Holy Spirit does, |
| Tx:8.112 | the Holy Spirit or believe that it is for you unless you hear it in | others. It must be for your brother because it is for you. Would God |
| Tx:9.31 | How, then, can you perceive Him at all? If you inspire joy, and | others react to you with joy even though you are not experiencing joy |
| Tx:9.31 | you and can produce joy, and if you see that it does produce joy in | others, you must be dissociating it in yourself. |
| Tx:9.32 | in you only because you do not consistently arouse joy in | others. Their reactions to you are your evaluations of His |
| Tx:9.35 | how to awaken. Very simply the Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken | others. As you see them waken, you will learn what waking means, and |
| Tx:9.54 | triumph, but you are exalted. And in your exalted state, you seek | others like you and rejoice with them. |
| Tx:9.94 | God will inevitably result in projection, and you will believe that | others, and not yourself, have done this to you. You will receive the |
| Tx:10.35 | therefore ego identification and as strong an ego defense as blaming | others. You cannot enter God's Presence if you attack His Son. When |
| Tx:10.66 | of dreams and the awareness of Christ comes with the awakening of | others to share your redemption. |
| Tx:11.1 | justification for the response. That is why analyzing the motives of | others is hazardous to you. If you decide that someone is really |
| Tx:11.9 | By applying the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the reactions of | others more and more consistently, you will gain an increasing |
| Tx:11.9 | Consider how well the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the motives of | others will serve you then. |
| Tx:11.10 | Having taught you to accept only loving thoughts in | others and to regard everything else as an appeal for help, He has |
| Tx:11.11 | is a symptom of your deep sense of loss. If when you perceive it in | others you learn to supply the loss, the basic cause of fear is |
| Tx:11.45 | by recognizing that your attack on yourself had no effects. For | others do react to attack if they perceive it, and if you are trying |
| Tx:12.35 | that you must attack yourself first, for what you attack is not in | others. Its only reality is in your own mind, and by attacking |
| Tx:12.35 | in others. Its only reality is in your own mind, and by attacking | others, you are literally attacking what is not there. |
| Tx:12.55 | will join with theirs in power so compelling that it will draw the | others out of darkness as you look on them. |
| Tx:14.49 | larger or better, wiser or more productive and valuable than | others. And this is true about the thoughts which cross the mind of |
| Tx:14.49 | who think they live apart. For some are reflections of Heaven, while | others are motivated by the ego, which but seems to think. The result |
| Tx:15.47 | decide that special aspects of the Sonship can give you more than | others? The past has taught you this. Yet the holy instant teaches |
| Tx:15.68 | to you. For it is the ego's fundamental doctrine that what you do to | others, you have escaped. The ego wishes no one well. Yet its |
| Tx:15.105 | perceive yourself as a victim of sacrifice, justified in sacrificing | others. For who could thrust Heaven and its Creator aside without a |
| Tx:16.33 | living and use them for any purpose which they would not share with | others, are trying to live with guilt rather than die of it. This is |
| Tx:16.61 | for limiting your self to a body and for limiting your perception of | others to theirs. The Great Rays would establish the total lack of |
| Tx:17.32 | more willing to let go. While this one remains, you will not let the | others go. For this one is not different. Retain this one, and you |
| Tx:17.72 | you are faithless to your own relationship. Your faith will call the | others to share your purpose, as this same purpose called forth the |
| Tx:18.57 | is outside you, and but seems to surround you, shutting you off from | others and keeping you apart from them [and them from you]. It is not |
| Tx:18.68 | use of the course if you insist on using means which have served | others well, neglecting what was made for you. Save time for me by |
| Tx:19.21 | at its disposal. For here lies its “best” defense which all the | others serve. Here is its armor, its protection, and the fundamental |
| Tx:19.37 | will encounter many obstacles. Some of them you will try to impose. | Others will seem to arise from elsewhere—from your brothers and |
| Tx:19.37 | The extension of the Holy Spirit's purpose from your relationship to | others to bring them gently in [has already begun. This is the way in |
| Tx:19.40 | it. You are the center from which it radiates outward to call the | others in. You are its home, its tranquil dwelling-place from which |
| Tx:19.53 | They are as eager to return to you what they hold dear as are the | others. If you send them forth, they will see only the blameless and |
| Tx:20.27 | no fear in perfect love because it knows no sin and it must look on | others as on itself. Looking with charity within, what can it fear |
| Tx:20.58 | The seeming inconsistencies or parts you find more difficult than | others are merely indications of areas where means and end are still |
| Tx:21.55 | is not reinterpreted and redirected from the goal of sin as are the | others. For reason is beyond the ego's range of means. |
| Tx:21.76 | not yet the last. For this one still seems fearful and unlike the | others. Yet reason would assure you they are all the same. We said |
| Tx:21.81 | you why. It is the same as are the other three except in time. The | others are decisions which can be made and then unmade and made |
| Tx:21.83 | Why do you think you are unsure the | others have been answered? Could it be necessary they be asked so |
| Tx:21.89 | decided how you would answer the final question. Your answer to the | others has made it possible to help you be but partially insane. And |
| Tx:22.56 | you will remember. Who can deny himself the vision that he brings to | others? And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in |
| Tx:23.20 | separate and has a different set of thoughts which sets him off from | others. This principle evolves from the belief there is a hierarchy |
| Tx:23.21 | making it appear that some of them are harder to overcome than | others. If it were realized that they are all the same and equally |
| Tx:23.27 | what it takes. This leads to the fourth law of chaos, which, if the | others are accepted, must be true. This seeming law is the belief you |
| Tx:23.38 | conflict, making it seem quite possible to value some above the | others. Yet each one rests as surely on the belief the laws of chaos |
| Tx:23.38 | on the belief the laws of chaos are the laws of order as do the | others. Each one upholds these laws completely, offering a certain |
| Tx:25.43 | of his sight rests on himself with all the tenderness it offers | others. For he would only heal and only bless. And being in accord |
| Tx:25.83 | can there be in miracles, unless someone deserves to suffer more and | others less? And is this justice to the wholly innocent? A miracle is |
| Tx:25.83 | is justice. It is not a special gift to some to be withheld from | others as less worthy, more condemned, and thus apart from healing. |
| Tx:25.84 | given specially to an elect and special group and kept apart from | others as less deserving, then is He ally to specialness. What He |
| Tx:26.10 | for you. He has not greater difficulty in resolving some than | others. Every problem is the same to Him, because each one is solved |
| Tx:26.14 | it safe to give but some mistakes to be corrected while you keep the | others to yourself, remember this: justice is total. There is no such |
| Tx:26.51 | illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears some are more true than | others, although this clearly makes no sense at all. All that a |
| Tx:27.39 | sin do you prefer? That is the one which you should choose. The | others are not true. What can the body get that you would want the |
| Tx:27.84 | The world but demonstrates an ancient truth—you will believe that | others do to you exactly what you think you did to them. But once |
| Tx:29.25 | the dream, but only on awaking. Could it be some dreams are kept and | others wakened from? The choice is not between which dreams to keep, |
| Tx:30.75 | of a fixed belief that some appearances are harder to look past than | others are. It always means you think forgiveness must be limited. |
| Tx:31.54 | and someone must have first decided on the one to choose and let the | others go. |
| W1:I.5 | Some of the ideas you will find hard to believe, and | others will seem quite startling. It does not matter. You are merely |
| W1:5.5 | and to avoid giving greater weight to some subjects than to | others. It might help to precede the exercises with the statement: |
| W1:5.8 | to apply today's idea to some perceived sources of upset than to | others. If this occurs, think first of this: |
| W1:5.9 | I cannot keep this form of upset and let the | others go. For the purposes of these exercises, then, I will regard |
| W1:6.4 | you resist applying the idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to | others, remind yourself of the two cautions stated in the previous |
| W1:6.7 | I cannot keep this form of upset and let the | others go. For the purposes of these exercises, then, I will regard |
| W1:14.7 | part of the world you see. Some of them are shared illusions, and | others are part of your personal hell. It does not matter. What God |
| W1:21.3 | will probably be tempted to dwell more on some situations than on | others on the fallacious grounds that they are more “obvious.” This |

| W1:72.8 | world you see. Some hate the body and try to hurt and humiliate it. | Others love the body and try to glorify and exalt it. But while it |
| W1:79.5 | unexpectedly, just as you think you have resolved the previous ones. | Others remain unsolved under a cloud of denial and rise to haunt you |
| W1:92.7 | cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in love. It sees all | others different from itself and nothing in the world that it would |
| W1:108.12 | too, to think of one to whom to give your gifts. He represents the | others, and through him you give to all. |
| W1:127.2 | bestowed on one and yet remain itself although it is withheld from | others. To believe these things of love is not to understand it. If |
| W1:132.8 | Some see it suddenly on point of death and rise to teach it. | Others find it in experience that is not of this world, which shows |
| W1:133.9 | Your next consideration is the one on which the | others rest. Why is the choice you make of value to you? What |
| W1:137.1 | dwell on sickness and on separate states. Sickness is a retreat from | others and a shutting off of joining. It becomes a door that closes |
| W1:137.2 | it seems to keep one self apart from all the rest to suffer what the | others do not feel. It gives the body final power to make the |
| W1:138.6 | rest, this one remains unsolved. But when you solve this one, the | others are resolved with it, for all decisions but conceal this one |
| W1:140.9 | and no beliefs that what does not exist is truer in some forms than | others. All of them are false and can be cured because they are not |
| W1:155.4 | from a sense of loss and have not been released accordingly. | Others have chosen nothing but the world, and they have suffered from |
| W1:155.5 | behind. This is the way appointed for you now. You walk this path as | others walk, nor do you seem to be distinct from them although you |
| W1:156.2 | true. It cannot contradict itself nor be in parts uncertain and in | others sure. You cannot walk the world apart from God because you |
| W1:181.2 | This faith receives its only sure support from what you see in | others past their sins. For their mistakes, if focused on, are |
| W1:182.2 | they play to occupy their time and keep their sadness from them. | Others will deny that they are sad and do not recognize their tears |
| W1:182.2 | that they are sad and do not recognize their tears at all. Still | others will maintain that what we speak of is illusion, not to be |
| W1:185.5 | recognizing that another dream would offer nothing more than all the | others. Dreams are one to him. And he has learned their only |
| W1:185.8 | not some dreams be more acceptable, reserving shame and secrecy for | others. They are one. |
| W1:195.1 | The most that they can do is see themselves as better off than | others. And they try to be content because another seems to suffer |
| W1:195.1 | deprecating are such thoughts! For who has cause for thanks while | others have less cause, and who could suffer less because he sees |
| W1:195.4 | will find their freedom. It will never be that some are loosed while | others still are bound, for who can bargain in the name of love? |
| W1:196.5 | The dreary, hopeless thought that you can make attacks on | others and escape yourself has nailed you to the cross. Perhaps it |
| W1:198.3 | all other dreams away, and though it is itself a dream, it breeds no | others. All illusions save this one must multiply a thousand fold. |

| M:4.11 | of God's teachers rest on trust. Once that has been achieved, the | others cannot fail to follow. Only the trusting can afford honesty, |

| M:22.4 | sickness, both in the individual's perception of himself and of all | others as well. Nor is it at this level that the teacher of God calls |
| M:23.2 | the world. Indeed, he has already done so. Temptation may recur to | others, but never to this one. He has become the risen Son of God. He |
| M:24.5 | God should not believe in reincarnation himself or discuss it with | others who do? The answer is certainly not! If he does believe in |

| M:26.1 | is what sets them apart from the world. And it is this that enables | others to leave the world with them. Alone they are nothing. But in |

| Tx:15.103 | will disappear in our relationship, which is as innocent as | our relationship with our Father, and as powerful. Pain will be |

| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us | our illusions, Father, and help us to accept our true relationship |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, Father, and help us to accept | our true relationship with You in which there are no illusions and |

| Tx:17.42 | ascend in peace together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in | our minds. We will gain everything by giving Him the power and the |
| Tx:17.42 | the whole. The whole reality of your relationship with Him lies in | our relationship to one another. The holy instant shines alike on all |

| Tx:18.95 | lead to knowledge, but knowledge itself is still beyond the scope of | our curriculum. Nor is there any need for us to try to speak of what |

| Tx:19.67 | keep away One Who is there already. And in Him it is possible that | our communion, where we are joined already, will be the focus of the |
| Tx:19.68 | it. If peace is homeless, so are you and so am I. And He Who is | our home is homeless with us. Is this your will? Would you forever be |
| Tx:19.85 | against the ego's savage wish to kill. My brothers, children of | our Father, this is a dream of death. There is no funeral, no dark |
| Tx:20.12 | the glad refrain the Son of God was never crucified. Let us lift up | our eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear |
| Tx:20.12 | not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us, for in | our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway to the open door of |
| Tx:20.13 | each other's way. The holiness that leads us is within us, as is | our home. So will we find what we were meant to find by Him Who leads |
| Tx:20.26 | and my Self. Your gift unto each other has given me the certainty | our union will be soon. |

| Tx:31.12 | of what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not | our own ideas of what the world is for. We do not know. Let every |
| Tx:31.12 | We do not know. Let every image held of [anyone] be loosened from | our minds and swept away. Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any |

| W1:14.3 | into fear. You will not be left there. You will go far beyond it. | Our direction is toward perfect safety and perfect peace. |

| W1:69.2 | real attempt to reach the light in you. Before we undertake this in | our more extended practice period, let us devote several minutes in |
| W1:69.3 | Let us begin | our longer practice period today with the full realization of all |
| W1:69.3 | to reach what is dearer to us than all else. Salvation is | our only need. There is no other purpose here and no other function |
| W1:69.3 | purpose here and no other function to fulfill. Learning salvation is | our only goal. Let us end the ancient search today by finding the |

| W1:75.3 | Our exercises for today will be happy ones in which we offer thanks | |

| W1:75.4 | This is what we want to see, and only this. Our single purpose makes | our goal inevitable. Today the real world rises before us in |

| W1:78.7 | today will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in | our mind, first as you now consider him. We will review his faults, |
| W1:78.8 | reality and truth that we may look on him a different way and see | our savior shining in the light of true forgiveness given unto us. We |
| W1:78.12 | the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation plan, and not | our own. Temptation falls away when we allow each one we meet to save |
| W1:78.12 | each one we meet to save us and refuse to hide his light behind | our grievances. To everyone you meet and to the ones you think of or |
| W1:79.7 | In | our longer practice periods today, we will ask what the problem is |
| W1:79.7 | to it. We will not assume that we already know. We will try to free | our minds of all the many different kinds of problems that we think |
| W1:79.8 | Our exercises for today will be successful to the extent to which we | |
| W1:79.8 | on defining the problem. Perhaps we will not succeed in letting all | our preconceived notions go, but that is not necessary. All that is |
| W1:79.8 | that is necessary is to entertain some doubt about the reality of | our version of what our problems are. We are trying to recognize that |
| W1:79.8 | is to entertain some doubt about the reality of our version of what | our problems are. We are trying to recognize that we have been given |
| W1:79.9 | You will see many problems today, each one calling for an answer. | Our efforts will be directed toward recognizing that there is only |
| W1:80.4 | In | our longer practice periods today, we will claim the peace that must |
| W1:R2.1 | We are now ready for another review. We will begin where | our last review left off and cover two ideas each day. The earlier |
| W1:81.1 | Our ideas for review today are: | |
| W1:87.1 | Our review today will cover these ideas: | |
| W1:89.1 | These are | our review ideas for today: |
| W1:89.7 | I would not hold this grievance apart from my salvation. Let | our grievances be replaced by miracles, [name]. Beyond this is the |
| W1:91.8 | The question with which this statement ends is needed for | our exercises today. What you think you are is a belief to be undone. |
| W1:93.8 | In | our longer exercise periods today, which would be most profitable if |
| W1:93.8 | of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the truth about | our creation: |
| W1:95.3 | can hear and see and what makes perfect sense. We will again direct | our exercises towards reaching your One Self, which is united with |
| W1:95.9 | for the next week or so, to be willing to forgive ourselves for | our lapses in diligence and our failures to follow the instructions |
| W1:95.9 | to be willing to forgive ourselves for our lapses in diligence and | our failures to follow the instructions for practicing the day's idea. |
| W1:95.10 | will enable us to overlook it, rather than give it power to delay | our learning. If we give it power to do this, we are regarding it as |
| W1:95.21 | You are One Self with me, united with | our Creator in this Self. I honor you because of what I am, and what |
| W1:96.9 | your mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks to you from your One Self. | Our hourly five minute practicing will be a search for Him within |
| W1:98.2 | How happy to be certain! All | our doubts we lay aside today and take our stand with certainty of |
| W1:98.2 | How happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay aside today and take | our stand with certainty of purpose and with thanks that doubt is |
| W1:98.2 | we need with which to reach the goal. Not one mistake stands in | our way, for we have been absolved from errors. All our sins are |

| W1:98.4 | made. Those still uncertain too will join with us and, borrowing | our certainty, will make it stronger still. While those as yet unborn |
| W1:100.5 | fail to take the part that is essential to God's plan as well as to | our vision. Sadness is the sign that you would play another part |
| W1:100.6 | Today we will attempt to understand joy is | our function here. If you are sad, your part is unfulfilled and all |
| W1:100.7 | in your happy face. We will prepare ourselves for this today in | our five minute practice periods by feeling happiness arise in us |
| W1:100.7 | practice periods by feeling happiness arise in us according to | our Father's Will and ours. |
| W1:102.3 | For several days we will continue to devote | our longer practice periods to exercises planned to help you reach |
| W1:104.2 | holy altar where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are | our own in truth. His are the gifts which we inherited before time |
| W1:104.3 | now and know in choosing them in place of what we made we but unite | our will with what God wills and recognize the same as being one. |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods today, the hourly five minutes given | |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy place within | our minds before His altar, where His gifts of peace and joy are |
| W1:105.7 | Today | our practice periods will start a little differently. Begin today by |
| W1:107.8 | We merely ask for what belongs to us, that we may recognize it as | our own. |
| W1:107.9 | born of truth. The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not | our approach today. We are as certain of success as we are sure we |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for today will teach you much. Effect and | |
| W1:109.1 | on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that will answer | our asking with what we request. |
| W1:109.11 | We rest together here, for thus | our rest is made complete, and what we give today we have received |
| W1:110.10 | we make a great advance to truth by letting idols go and opening | our hands and hearts and minds to God today. |
| W1:110.11 | remember Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, | our holy Self, the Christ in each of us: |
| W1:R3.1 | Our third review begins today. We will review two of the last 20 | |
| W1:R3.2 | to be sure that you catch up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not | our aim and would defeat our goal. |
| W1:R3.2 | up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not our aim and would defeat | our goal. |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake | our practicing today with hope and faith that this will be the day |
| W1:122.9 | and gladly will we seek for it today, aware we hold the key within | our hands, accepting Heaven's answer to the hell we made, but where |
| W1:123.1 | objections, and a little hesitance, but we can well be grateful for | our gains, which are far greater than we realize. |
| W1:123.4 | Today in gratitude we lift | our hearts above despair and raise our thankful eyes, no longer |
| W1:123.4 | Today in gratitude we lift our hearts above despair and raise | our thankful eyes, no longer looking downward to the dust. We sing |
| W1:123.4 | thankfulness today in honor of the Self Which God has willed to be | our true Identity in Him. Today we smile on everyone we see and walk |
| W1:123.4 | appointed us to do. We do not go alone. And we give thanks that in | our solitude a Friend has come to speak the saving Word of God to us. |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again give thanks for | our Identity in God. Our home is safe, protection guaranteed in all |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in God. | Our home is safe, protection guaranteed in all we do, power and |
| W1:124.1 | guaranteed in all we do, power and strength available to us in all | our undertakings. We can fail in nothing. Everything we touch takes |
| W1:124.1 | and which heals. At one with God and with the universe, we go | our way rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself goes everywhere |
| W1:124.2 | How holy are | our minds! And everything we see reflects the holiness within the |
| W1:124.2 | easily do errors disappear and death give place to everlasting life. | Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for God is our |
| W1:124.2 | life. Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for God is | our Companion as we walk the world a little while. And those who come |
| W1:124.3 | What we receive is | our eternal gift to those who follow after and to those who went |
| W1:124.4 | No meaningless anxieties can come between | our faith and our awareness of His Presence. We are one with Him |
| W1:124.4 | No meaningless anxieties can come between our faith and | our awareness of His Presence. We are one with Him today in |
| W1:124.4 | one with Him today in recognition and remembrance. We feel Him in | our hearts. Our minds contain His thoughts; our eyes behold His |
| W1:124.4 | Him today in recognition and remembrance. We feel Him in our hearts. | Our minds contain His thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all |
| W1:124.4 | We feel Him in our hearts. Our minds contain His thoughts; | our eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. Today we see only |
| W1:124.7 | We have accepted and we now would give, for we would keep the gifts | our Father gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, |
| W1:124.7 | experience ourselves at one with Him, so that the world may share | our recognition of reality. In our experience the world is freed; as |
| W1:124.7 | with Him, so that the world may share our recognition of reality. In | our experience the world is freed; as we deny our separation from our |
| W1:124.7 | of reality. In our experience the world is freed; as we deny | our separation from our Father, it is healed along with us. |
| W1:124.7 | In our experience the world is freed; as we deny our separation from | our Father, it is healed along with us. |
| W1:124.8 | a half an hour to the thought that you are one with God. This is | our first attempt at an extended period for which we give no rules |
| W1:125.3 | In stillness we will hear God's Voice today without intrusion of | our petty thoughts, without our personal desires, and without all |
| W1:125.3 | God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without | our personal desires, and without all judgment of His holy Word. We |
| W1:127.6 | Today we practice making free | our minds of all the laws you think you must obey, of all the limits |
| W1:127.9 | leave the past behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise | our eyes upon a different present, where a future shines unlike the |
| W1:127.10 | enemy. Now are they all made free along with us. Now are they all | our brothers in God's Love. |
| W1:127.11 | them throughout the day because we cannot leave a part of us outside | our love if we would know our Self. At least three times an hour |
| W1:127.11 | we cannot leave a part of us outside our love if we would know | our Self. At least three times an hour think of one who makes the |
| W1:128.5 | aspects and its phases and its dreams. We hold it purposeless within | our minds and loosen it from all we wish it were. Thus do we lift the |
| W1:129.1 | there is something else to hope for, you will only be depressed. | Our emphasis is not on giving up the world but on exchanging it for |
| W1:130.7 | nor attempt to bring with us a little part of unreality as we devote | our minds to finding only what is real. |
| W1:131.12 | This we acknowledge as we start upon | our practice periods. Begin with this: |
| W1:132.15 | Today | our purpose is to free the world from all the idle thoughts we ever |
| W1:132.15 | it. They cannot be there—no more than we. For we are in the home | our Father set for us along with them. And we who are as He created |
| W1:132.15 | as He created us would loose the world this day from every one of | our illusions that we may be free. |
| W1:133.15 | Our two extended practice periods of 15 minutes will begin with this: | |
| W1:134.14 | that the time of joining be no more delayed. For we would meet with | our reality in freedom and in peace. Our practicing becomes the |
| W1:134.14 | delayed. For we would meet with our reality in freedom and in peace. | Our practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for all |
| W1:134.14 | Our practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for all | our brothers, who will follow us to the reality we share with them. |
| W1:135.21 | be increased until the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly will | our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which availed them |
| W1:135.22 | for us. We will be sure that everything we need is given us for | our accomplishment of this today. We make no plans for how it will be |
| W1:135.22 | today. We make no plans for how it will be done but realize that | our defenselessness is all that is required for the truth to dawn |
| W1:135.22 | defenselessness is all that is required for the truth to dawn upon | our minds with certainty. |
| W1:135.23 | planning and from every thought which blocks the truth from entering | our minds. Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may give |
| W1:136.15 | if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. This is | our aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the |
| W1:137.12 | and this cannot succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy | our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what |
| W1:137.13 | We will remember, as the hour strikes, | our function is to let our minds be healed that we may carry healing |
| W1:137.13 | We will remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let | our minds be healed that we may carry healing to the world, |
| W1:137.16 | function be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, remembering | our function with this thought: |
| W1:138.12 | Before we close | our eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the choice that we have made |
| W1:138.12 | made each hour in between. And now we give the last five minutes of | our waking day to the decision with which we awoke. As every hour |
| W1:138.12 | decision with which we awoke. As every hour passed, we have declared | our choice again in a brief quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. |
| W1:139.8 | or a statement which denies itself in statement? Let us not allow | our holy minds to occupy themselves with senseless musings such as |
| W1:139.8 | Let 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 |
| W1:139.10 | Five minutes in the morning and at night we will devote to dedicate | our minds to our assignment for today. We start with this review of |
| W1:139.10 | in the morning and at night we will devote to dedicate our minds to | our assignment for today. We start with this review of what our |
| W1:139.10 | minds to our assignment for today. We start with this review of what | our mission is: |
| W1:139.12 | it for everyone, for in creation are all minds as one and in | our memory is the recall how dear our brothers are to us in truth, |
| W1:139.12 | are all minds as one and in our memory is the recall how dear | our brothers are to us in truth, how much a part of us is every mind, |
| W1:139.12 | us is every mind, how faithful they have really been to us, and how | our Father's Love contains us all. |
| W1:139.13 | its Creator and His oneness with all aspects of creation, we repeat | our dedication to our cause today each hour, as we lay aside all |
| W1:139.13 | oneness with all aspects of creation, we repeat our dedication to | our cause today each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would |
| W1:139.13 | each 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 |
| W1:140.8 | Today we seek to change | our minds about the source of sickness, for we seek a cure for all |
| W1:140.8 | them. We will try today to find the source of healing, which is in | our minds because our Father placed it there for us. It is not |
| W1:140.8 | today to find the source of healing, which is in our minds because | our Father placed it there for us. It is not further from us than |
| W1:140.8 | us. It is not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to us as | our own thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need but |
| W1:140.10 | So do we lay aside | our amulets, our charms and medicines, our chants and bits of magic |
| W1:140.10 | So do we lay aside our amulets, | our charms and medicines, our chants and bits of magic in whatever |
| W1:140.10 | So do we lay aside our amulets, our charms and medicines, | our chants and bits of magic in whatever form they took. We will be |
| W1:140.11 | the day by listening again five minutes more before we go to sleep. | Our only preparation is to let our interfering thoughts be laid |
| W1:140.11 | minutes more before we go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let | our interfering thoughts be laid aside, not separately, but all of |
| W1:140.11 | need to make them different and thus delay the time when we can hear | our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We come to Him today. |
| W1:140.12 | With nothing in | our hands to which we cling, with lifted hearts and listening minds |
| W1:140.14 | soft protection and with peace so deep that no illusion can disturb | our minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn |
| W1:140.14 | to us that 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 |
| W1:140.14 | hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to | our prayer be given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is |
| W1:R4.1 | begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow next. Such is | our aim for this review and for the lessons following. Thus we review |
| W1:R4.5 | Let us begin | our preparation with some understanding of the many forms in which |
| W1:R4.6 | So do we start each practice period in this review with readying | our minds to understand the lessons that we read and see the meaning |
| W1:R4.10 | has laid in it for you to have of Him. And we will use no format for | our practicing but this: |
| W1:R4.11 | us happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all | our Father wills that we receive as the inheritance we have of Him. |
| W1:R4.12 | day a special time of blessing and of happiness for us and through | our faithfulness restored the world from darkness to the light, from |
| W1:151.13 | of the thought with which the day begins. And then we watch | our thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements of |
| W1:151.16 | the world redeemed and joyfully released from guilt. Now do we lift | our resurrected minds in gladness and in gratitude to Him Who has |
| W1:151.16 | minds in gladness and in gratitude to Him Who has restored | our sanity to us. |
| 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 |
| W1:151.17 | our holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has | our ministry begun at last, to carry round the world the joyous news |
| W1:152.8 | and accept what we have made as what it is. The power of decision is | our own. Decide but to accept your rightful place as co-creator of |
| W1:152.10 | are sinners, guilty and afraid, ashamed of what we are. And we lift | our hearts in true humility instead to Him Who has created us |
| W1:152.10 | like to Himself in power and in love. The power of decision is | our own. And we accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize |
| W1:152.11 | his right to Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as | our own. Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false |
| W1:152.12 | as we arise and spend five minutes practicing its ways, encouraging | our frightened minds with this: |
| W1:152.14 | we wait in silence, giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask | our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will |
| W1:152.14 | He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will come again to | our awareness, grateful to restore His home to God as it was meant to |
| W1:153.8 | We will not play such childish games today. For | our true purpose is to save the world, and we would not exchange for |
| W1:153.8 | the world, and we would not exchange for foolishness the endless joy | our function offers us. We would not let our happiness slip by |
| W1:153.8 | foolishness the endless joy our function offers us. We would not let | our happiness slip by because a senseless fragment of a dream |
| W1:153.8 | slip by because a senseless fragment of a dream happened to cross | our minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the Son of God, its |
| W1:153.9 | behind. And in defenselessness we stand secure, serenely certain of | our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen |
| W1:153.9 | certain of our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill | our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy blessing through |
| W1:153.9 | now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as | our ministry extends its holy blessing through the world. |
| W1:153.13 | quiet time has come in which we put away the toys of guilt and lock | our quaint and childish thoughts of sin forever from the pure and |
| W1:153.13 | children and the Son of God. We pause but for a moment more to play | our final happy game upon this earth. And then we go to take our |
| W1:153.13 | to play our final happy game upon this earth. And then we go to take | our rightful place where truth abides and games are meaningless. |
| W1:153.15 | we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each day by giving | our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five minutes |
| W1:153.15 | 15 better still. And as distraction ceases to arise to turn us from | our purpose, we will find that half an hour is too short a time to |
| W1:153.16 | Each hour adds to | our increasing peace, as we remember to be faithful to the will we |
| W1:153.16 | on us, and we will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn | our thoughts to God. |
| W1:153.17 | Yet when we can, we will observe | our trust as ministers of God in hourly remembrance of our mission |
| W1:153.17 | will observe our trust as ministers of God in hourly remembrance of | our mission and His Love. And we will quietly sit by and wait on Him |
| W1:153.19 | Today | our theme is our defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as we |
| W1:153.19 | Today our theme is | our defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as we prepare to meet |
| W1:153.19 | as we prepare to meet the day. We rise up strong in Christ and let | our weakness disappear as we remember that His strength abides in us. |
| W1:153.19 | ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and never leaves | our weakness unsupported by His strength. |
| W1:153.20 | We call upon His strength each time we feel the threat of | our defenses undermine our certainty of purpose. We will pause a |
| W1:153.20 | His strength each time we feel the threat of our defenses undermine | our certainty of purpose. We will pause a moment as He tells us, “I |
| W1:154.1 | are but attempts to hold decision off, and to delay commitment to | our function. It is not our part to judge our worth, nor can we know |
| W1:154.1 | decision off, and to delay commitment to our function. It is not | our part to judge our worth, nor can we know what role is best for |
| W1:154.1 | and to delay commitment to our function. It is not our part to judge | our worth, nor can we know what role is best for us; what we can do |
| W1:154.1 | what we can do within a larger plan we cannot see in its entirety. | Our part is cast in Heaven, not in hell. And what we think is |
| W1:154.1 | And what we think is weakness can be strength; what we believe to be | our strength is often arrogance. |
| W1:154.10 | that we undertake to recognize today. We will not seek to keep | our minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our voice |
| W1:154.10 | to keep our 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 |
| W1:154.11 | what He would have that we may recognize His gifts to us. He needs | our voice that He may speak through us. He needs our hands to hold |
| W1:154.11 | to us. He needs our voice that He may speak through us. He needs | our hands to hold His messages and carry them to those whom He |
| W1:154.11 | hold His messages and carry them to those whom He appoints. He needs | our feet to bring us where He wills, that those who wait in misery |
| W1:154.11 | that those who wait in misery may be at last delivered. And He needs | our will united with His own, that we may be the true receivers of |
| W1:154.13 | Our lesson for today is stated thus: | |
| W1:154.15 | The world recedes as we light up | our minds and realize these holy words are true. They are the message |
| W1:154.15 | holy words are true. They are the message sent to us today from | our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our minds about |
| W1:154.15 | us today from our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed | our minds about ourselves and what our function is. For as we prove |
| W1:154.15 | demonstrate how they have changed our minds about ourselves and what | our function is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not |
| W1:154.15 | function is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not share, | our many gifts from our Creator will spring to our sight and leap |
| W1:154.15 | we prove that we accept no will we do not share, our many gifts from | our Creator will spring to our sight and leap into our hands, and we |
| W1:154.15 | will we do not share, our many gifts from our Creator will spring to | our sight and leap into our hands, and we will understand what we |
| W1:154.15 | many gifts from our Creator will spring to our sight and leap into | our hands, and we will understand what we received. |
| W1:155.11 | as we progress along the way that truth points out to us. This is | our final journey, which we make for everyone. We must not lose our |

| W1:155.11 | not lose our way. For as truth goes before us, so it goes before | our brothers who will follow us. |
| W1:156.2 | We are not inconsistent in the thoughts that we present in | our curriculum. Truth must be true throughout if it be true. It |

| W1:157.2 | us there an instant and we go beyond it, sure of our direction and | our only goal. |
| W1:157.6 | cannot give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in | our eyes which we can offer everyone that he may come the sooner to |
| W1:158.2 | this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to give today? | Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the text. |
| W1:158.6 | unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is beyond | our goal, for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. Our |
| W1:158.6 | is beyond our goal, for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. | Our concern is with Christ's vision. This we can attain. |
| W1:159.10 | awakens us to truth. His vision gives the means for a return to | our unlost and everlasting sanctity in God. |
| W1:160.2 | There is a stranger in | our midst who comes from an idea so foreign to the truth he speaks a |

| W1:161.1 | we practice differently and take a stand against our anger, that | our fears may disappear and offer room to love. Here is salvation in |
| W1:161.5 | It seems to be the body that we feel limits | our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out our life. Yet |
| W1:161.5 | we feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out | our life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete form of fear. Fear |
| W1:161.6 | Bodies attack but minds do not. This thought is surely reminiscent of | our text, where it is often emphasized. This is the reason bodies |
| W1:163.8 | death, and we renounce it now in every form for their salvation and | our own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must |
| W1:163.9 | Our Father, bless our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we | |
| W1:163.9 | Our Father, bless | our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the |
| W1:163.9 | You and part of You forever. We accept Your thoughts as ours, and | our will is one with Yours eternally. Amen. |
| W1:164.1 | instant, now, we come to look upon what is forever there—not in | our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past time and sees |
| W1:164.7 | receive but what is given us from judgment made beyond the world. | Our practicing today becomes our gift of thankfulness for our release |
| W1:164.7 | us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today becomes | our gift of thankfulness for our release from blindness and from |
| W1:164.7 | the world. Our practicing today becomes our gift of thankfulness for | our release from blindness and from misery. All that we see will but |
| W1:164.7 | from blindness and from misery. All that we see will but increase | our joy because its holiness reflects our own. We stand forgiven in |
| W1:164.7 | that we see will but increase our joy because its holiness reflects | our own. We stand forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world |
| W1:164.7 | forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world forgiven in | our own. |
| W1:164.8 | We bless the world as we behold it in the light in which | our Savior looks on us and offer it the freedom given us through His |
| W1:164.8 | and offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now | our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all |
| W1:165.7 | Name we practice as His Word directs we do. His sureness lies beyond | our every doubt. His love remains beyond our every fear. The thought |
| W1:165.7 | His sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond | our every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in |
| W1:165.7 | our every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in | our minds according to His Will. |
| W1:167.3 | this course has placed on that idea is due to its centrality in | our attempts to change your mind about yourself. It is the reason you |
| 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 |
| W1:167.10 | 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 because he shuts |
| W1:167.12 | We share | our life because we have one Source, a Source from Which perfection |
| W1:168.3 | Today we ask of God the gift He has most carefully preserved within | our hearts, waiting to be acknowledged. This the gift by which God |
| W1:168.3 | Himself and takes us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of | our sleep. His gift of grace is more than just an answer. It restores |
| W1:168.5 | is a new and holy day today, for we receive what has been given us. | Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We acknowledge |
| W1:168.5 | we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not | our own acceptance. We acknowledge our mistakes, but He to Whom all |
| W1:168.5 | Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We acknowledge | our mistakes, but He to Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who |
| W1:168.5 | but He to Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who answers | our mistakes by giving us the means to lay them down and rise to Him |
| W1:169.4 | We have perhaps appeared to contradict | our statement that the revelation of the Father and the Son as one |
| W1:169.14 | Our learning goal today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the | |
| W1:170.14 | with what we have received from You alone. We choose again and make | our choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We |
| W1:170.14 | received from You alone. We choose again and make our choice for all | our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We bring them Your |
| W1:170.14 | render us 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 |
| W1:R5.1 | on again more certain, more sincere, with faith upheld more surely. | Our footsteps have not been unwavering, and doubts have made us walk |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady | our feet, our Father; let our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, | our Father; let our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be still, and |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, our Father; let | our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be still, and speak to us. We |
| 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:R5.2 | give to You. We would but listen to Your Word and make it ours. Lead | our practicing as does a father lead a little child along a way he |
| W1:R5.3 | So do we bring | our practicing to You. And if we stumble, You will raise us up. If we |
| W1:R5.3 | We wander off, but You will not forget to call us back. Quicken | our footsteps now, that we may walk more certainly and quickly unto |
| W1:R5.3 | and quickly unto You. And we accept the Word You offer us to unify | our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You have given us. |
| W1:R5.7 | will shorten time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This remains | our goal, and as we practice, it is This to which we are approaching. |
| W1:R5.7 | as we practice, it is This to which we are approaching. Let us raise | our hearts from dust to life as we remember This is promised us, and |
| W1:R5.10 | has given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together we devote | our time and effort to them. And together we will teach them to our |
| W1:R5.10 | our time and effort to them. And together we will teach them to | our brothers. God would not have Heaven incomplete. It waits for you, |
| W1:R5.10 | without your part in me. And as I am made whole, we go together to | our ancient home, prepared for us before time was and kept unchanged |
| W1:R5.11 | is not a way we walk alone. In him I walk with you and you with me. | Our Father wills His Son be one with Him. What lives but must not |
| W1:R5.14 | With this we start each day of | our review. With this we start and end each period of practice time. |
| W1:R5.14 | thought we sleep, to waken once again with these same words upon | our lips to greet another day. No thought that we review but we |
| W1:R5.14 | but we surround with it and use the thoughts to hold it up before | our minds and keep it clear in our remembrance throughout the day. |
| W1:R5.14 | use the thoughts to hold it up before our minds and keep it clear in | our remembrance throughout the day. And thus when we have finished |
| W1:177.3 | [164] Now are we one with Him Who is | our Source. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:I2.1 | Our next few lessons make a special point of firming up your | |
| W1:I2.2 | Our lessons now are geared specifically to widening horizons and | |
| W1:I2.2 | keep your vision narrow and too limited to let you see the value of | our goal. We are attempting now to lift these blocks, however |
| W1:I2.3 | And so we start | our journey beyond words by concentrating first on what impedes our |
| W1:I2.3 | our journey beyond words by concentrating first on what impedes | our progress still. Experience of what exists beyond defensiveness |
| W1:181.3 | practicing today, we first let all such little focuses give way to | our great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct |
| W1:181.3 | first let all such little focuses give way to our great need to let | our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct our minds that it is |
| W1:181.3 | our great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct | our minds that it is this we seek and only this, for just a little |
| W1:181.3 | we seek and only this, for just a little while. We do not care about | our future goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern |
| W1:181.3 | for us within this interval of time wherein we practice changing | our intent. We seek for innocence and nothing else. We seek for it |
| W1:181.5 | within. We recognize that we have lost this goal if anger blocks | our way in any form. And if a brother's sins occur to us, our |
| W1:181.5 | blocks our way in any form. And if a brother's sins occur to us, | our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon our |
| W1:181.5 | if a brother's sins occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict | our sight and turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will |
| W1:181.5 | occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn | our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our |
| W1:181.5 | our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon | our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our “sins.” |
| W1:181.5 | turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call | our “sins.” |
| W1:181.6 | such blocks arise, we will transcend them with instructions to | our minds to change their focus, as we say: |
| W1:181.8 | long range goals. As each obstruction seems to block the vision of | our sinlessness, we seek but for surcease an instant from the misery |
| W1:181.9 | for fantasies. For what we seek to look upon is really there. And as | our focus goes beyond mistakes, we will behold a wholly sinless |
| W1:181.9 | eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes | our own as well. This will become the only thing we see reflected in |
| W1:181.10 | The world which once proclaimed | our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And our love for |
| W1:181.10 | once proclaimed our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And | our love for everyone we look upon attests to our remembrance of the |
| W1:181.10 | we are sinless. And our love for everyone we look upon attests to | our remembrance of the holy Self Which knows no sin and never could |
| W1:181.10 | without Its sinlessness. We seek for this remembrance as we turn | our minds to practicing today. We look neither ahead nor backwards. |
| W1:181.10 | ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the present. And we give | our trust to the experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but |
| W1:181.10 | the present. And we give our trust to the experience we ask for now. | Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is our willing |
| W1:181.10 | ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is | our willing one with His. |
| W1:183.7 | when we say today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes | our only thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies our |
| W1:183.7 | today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought, | our only word, the only thing that occupies our minds, the only wish |
| W1:183.7 | our only thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies | our minds, the only wish we have, the only sound with any meaning, |
| W1:183.7 | everything that we desire to see; of everything that we would call | our own. |
| W1:183.12 | height whatever words could possibly convey, is peace eternal. In | our Father's Name, we would experience this peace today. And in His |
| W1:184.12 | who chose the teaching of the world to take the place of Heaven. In | our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has |
| W1:184.12 | of the world to take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, | our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has given as the |
| W1:184.12 | take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let | our minds accept what He has given as the answer to the pitiful |
| W1:184.13 | but have not interfered with truth at all. One Name we bring into | our practicing. One Name we use to unify our sight. |
| W1:184.13 | all. One Name we bring into our practicing. One Name we use to unify | our sight. |
| W1:184.14 | kept us blind. And we are given strength to see beyond them. Now | our sight is blessed with blessings we can give as we receive. |
| W1:184.15 | Father, | our Name is Yours. In It we are united with all living things and You |
| W1:184.15 | Your Own Reality. And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. All | our mistakes we give to You, that we may be absolved of all effects |
| W1:184.15 | our mistakes we give to You, that we may be absolved of all effects | our errors seemed to have. And we accept the truth You give in place |
| W1:184.15 | the truth You give in place of every one of them. Your Name is | our salvation and escape from what we made. Your Name unites us in |
| W1:184.15 | from what we made. Your Name unites us in the Oneness which is | our inheritance and peace. Amen. |
| W1:185.7 | Let us today devote | our practicing to recognizing that we really mean the words we say. |
| W1:185.14 | It is this one intent we seek today, uniting | our desires with the need of every heart, the call of every mind, the |
| W1:186.2 | Let us not fight | our function. We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The means |
| W1:186.2 | Let us not fight our function. We did not establish it. It is not | our idea. The means are given us by which it will be perfectly |
| W1:186.2 | be perfectly accomplished. All that we are asked to do is to accept | our part in genuine humility and not deny with self-deceiving |
| W1:186.2 | we are worthy. What is given us to do we have the strength to do. | Our minds are suited perfectly to take the part assigned to us by One |
| W1:186.3 | what could arrogance deny but this? Today we will not shrink from | our assignment on the specious grounds that modesty is outraged. It |
| W1:186.4 | God's Voice reveal to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt | our adequacy for the function He will offer us. We will be certain |
| W1:186.4 | the function He will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows | our strengths, our wisdom, and our holiness. And if He deems us |
| W1:186.4 | will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, | our wisdom, and our holiness. And if He deems us worthy, so we are. |
| W1:186.4 | We will 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 |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find | our peace. We will accept the function God has given us, for all |
| W1:186.8 | rest upon the weird belief that we can make another for ourselves. | Our self-made roles are shifting, and they seem to change from |
| W1:186.8 | We can laugh or weep and greet the day with welcome or with tears. | Our very being seems to change as we experience a thousand shifts in |
| W1:186.8 | seems to change as we experience a thousand shifts in mood, and | our emotions raise us high indeed or dash us to the ground in |
| W1:187.10 | we stand together as one Son of God. Not separate from Him Who is | our Source; not distant from one brother who is part of our One Self |
| W1:187.10 | Him Who is our Source; not distant from one brother who is part of | our One Self Whose innocence has joined us all as one, we stand in |
| W1:187.10 | stand in blessedness and give as we receive. The Name of God is on | our lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in |
| W1:187.10 | lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in | our reflection of our Father's Love. |
| W1:187.10 | look within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in our reflection of | our Father's Love. |
| W1:187.11 | see it, it will be returned to us in form of lilies we can lay upon | our altar, making it a home for Innocence Itself, Who dwells in us |
| W1:188.8 | We practice coming nearer to the light in us today. We take | our wandering thoughts and gently bring them back to where they fall |
| W1:188.8 | share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the light within | our minds direct them to come home. We have betrayed them, ordering |
| W1:188.9 | Thus are | our minds restored with them, and we acknowledge that the peace of |
| W1:188.9 | God still shines in us and from us to all living things that share | our life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the world of what |
| W1:188.9 | it be innocent, devoid of sin, and open to salvation. And we lay | our saving blessing on it as we say: |
| W1:189.9 | we do choose to let Him come. And with this choice we rest. And in | our quiet hearts and open minds His love will blaze its pathway of |
| W1:189.10 | have answered us. We will not interfere. Salvation's ways are not | our own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. |
| W1:189.10 | own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. | Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no thoughts we |
| W1:189.10 | we would find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, which is | our own as well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a |
| W1:190.11 | illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let | our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to |
| W1:190.11 | truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto | our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead |
| W1:190.11 | and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill | our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead of pain, our |
| W1:190.11 | gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to choose | our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of |
| W1:190.11 | fill our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead of pain, | our holiness in place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, |
| W1:192.7 | its kindly light we grope in darkness, using reason but to justify | our rage and our attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we |
| W1:192.7 | light we grope in darkness, using reason but to justify our rage and | our attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we think we |
| W1:192.7 | in darkness, using reason but to justify our rage and our attack. | Our understanding is so limited that what we think we understand is |
| W1:192.7 | error. We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and fearful thoughts, | our eyes shut tight against the light, our minds engaged in |
| W1:192.7 | dreams and fearful thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the light, | our minds engaged in worshipping what is not there. |
| W1:193.10 | when we are tempted to believe that pain is real and death becomes | our choice instead of life? Shall we not learn to say these words |
| W1:193.15 | and give a little more, for now we would arise in haste and go unto | our Father's house. We have been gone too long, and we would linger |
| W1:194.1 | are we progressing now from earth! How close are we approaching to | our goal! How short the journey still to be pursued! |
| W1:194.9 | And if we are tempted to attack, we will appeal to Him Who guards | our rest to make the choice for us that leaves temptation far behind. |
| W1:194.9 | for us that leaves temptation far behind. No longer is the world | our enemy, for we have chosen that we be its friends. |
| W1:195.4 | can only be sincere if it is joined to love. We offer thanks to God | our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will |
| W1:195.5 | us not compare ourselves with them, for thus we split them off in | our awareness from the unity we share with them, as they must share |
| W1:195.6 | We thank | our Father for one thing alone—that we are separate from no living |
| W1:195.6 | we rejoice that no exceptions ever can be made which would reduce | our wholeness nor impair or change our function to complete the One |
| W1:195.6 | can be made which would reduce our wholeness nor impair or change | our function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We give |
| W1:195.7 | Then let | our brothers lean their tired heads against our shoulders as they |
| W1:195.7 | Then let our brothers lean their tired heads against | our shoulders as they rest a while. We offer thanks for them. For if |
| W1:195.7 | door is swinging free again; a long forgotten Word re-echoes in | our memory and gathers clarity as we are willing once again to hear. |
| W1:195.9 | If we refuse to recognize it, we are not entitled therefore to | our bitterness and to a self-perception which regards us in a place |
| W1:195.9 | ceaselessly and pushed about without a thought or care for us or for | our future. Gratitude becomes the single thought we substitute for |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude will pave the way to Him and shorten our learning time | |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude will pave the way to Him and shorten | our learning time by more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude |
| W1:196.8 | Our next steps will be easy if you take this one today. From there we | |
| W1:198.15 | the end of everything that yet would stand between this vision and | our sight. And we are glad that we have come this far and recognize |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose | our way again today. We go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only |
| W1:200.9 | wasted time on thorny byways. God alone is sure, and He will guide | our footsteps. He will not desert His Son in need, nor let him stray |
| W1:200.11 | a simple, happy way to leave the world of ambiguity and to replace | our shifting goals and solitary dreams with single purpose and |
| W1:R6.2 | With this in mind, we start | our practicing in which we carefully review the thoughts the Holy |
| W1:R6.2 | carefully review the thoughts the Holy Spirit has bestowed on us in | our last 20 lessons. Each contains the whole curriculum if |
| W1:R6.3 | These practice sessions, like | our last review, are centered round a central theme with which we |
| W1:R6.6 | a shorter path to the serenity and peace of God. We merely close | our eyes and then forget all that we thought we knew and understood. |
| W1:R6.10 | to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and gives | our thoughts whatever meaning they may have. |
| W2:I.1 | to reach the goal this course has set and find the end toward which | our practicing was geared. |
| W2:I.2 | exercise be merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for | our God and Father. He has promised He will take the final step |
| W2:I.2 | as we will need for the result that we desire. Nor will we forget | our hourly remembrance in between, calling to God when we have need |
| W2:I.2 | calling to God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to forget | our goal. |
| W2:I.3 | for all the days to come. And we will use that thought to introduce | our times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content |
| W2:I.3 | And we will use that thought to introduce our times of rest and calm | our minds at need. Yet we will not content ourselves with simple |
| W2:I.3 | we have given God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect | our Father to reveal Himself as He has promised. We have called on |
| W2:I.4 | Now do we come to Him with but His Word upon | our minds and hearts. And wait for Him to take the step to us that He |
| W2:I.4 | to make us happy? We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So | our times with Him will now be spent. We say the words of invitation |
| W2:I.6 | given us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead and fix | our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little gifts of thanks |
| W2:I.6 | the one we made and take that world to be the full replacement of | our own. |
| W2:I.7 | silence, unafraid and certain of Your coming. We have sought to find | our way by following the Guide You sent to us. We did not know the |
| W2:I.8 | go. His hand has held us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of | our minds. His Love has called to us unceasingly since time began. |
| W2:I.9 | Himself and be what we would make of Him. And we believed that | our insane desires were the truth. Now we are glad that this is all |
| W2:I.9 | true. The memory of God is shimmering across the wide horizons of | our minds. A moment more, and it will rise again. A moment more, and |
| W2:I.11 | time, instructions on a theme of special relevance will intersperse | our daily lessons and the periods of wordless, deep experience which |
| W2:221.2 | to you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. | Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's |
| W2:221.2 | 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 and |
| W2:221.2 | are joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's answer to | our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear |
| W2:221.2 | with one intent—to hear our Father's answer to our call, to let | our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of |
| W2:222.2 | Father, we have no words except Your Name upon | our lips and in our minds as we come quietly into Your Presence now |
| W2:222.2 | Father, we have no words except Your Name upon our lips and in | our minds as we come quietly into Your Presence now and ask to rest |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. | |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of | our mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We would look |
| W2:223.2 | For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We would look upon | our sinlessness, for guilt proclaims that we are not Your Son. And we |
| W2:223.2 | and long for Heaven where we are at home. Today we would return. | Our Name is Yours, and we acknowledge that we are Your Son. |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find | our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God |
| W2:WS.4 | daily to this holy place and spend a while together. Here we share | our final dream. It is a dream in which there is no sorrow, for it |
| W2:WS.5 | to the world, for it is here salvation was received. The song of | our rejoicing is the call to all the world that freedom is returned, |
| W2:231.2 | And you share this will with me, and with the One as well Who is | our Father. To remember Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is |
| W2:234.2 | that we cannot lose the memory of You and of Your Love. We recognize | our safety and give thanks for all the gifts You have bestowed on us, |
| W2:238.2 | And so again today we pause to think how much | our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, |
| W2:239.1 | hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts | our Father gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory |
| W2:240.2 | How foolish are | our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us faith today to |

| W2:270.2 | The quiet of today will bless | our hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is |

| W2:274.2 | A special blessing comes to us today from Him Who is | our Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no fear today |
| W2:276.1 | and all is given us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny | our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our Father is, and for |
| W2:276.1 | His Love, and we deny our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who | our Father is, and for what purpose we have come. And yet we need but |

| W2:276.1 | gave His Word to us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall | our Self. |
| W2:283.2 | Now are we one in shared Identity, with God | our Father as our only Source and everything created part of us. And |

| W2:296.2 | We teach today what we would learn and that alone. And so | our learning goal becomes an unconflicted one and possible of easy |

| W2:300.2 | We seek Your holy world today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost | our way a while. But we have listened to Your Voice and learned |
| W2:300.2 | Voice and learned exactly what to do to be restored to Heaven and | our true Identity. And we give thanks today the world endures but for |
| W2:WISC.5 | holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in us, and we can reach | our Father's Love through him. |
| W2:302.1 | Father, | our eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as our sight |
| W2:302.1 | Father, our eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as | our sight is finally restored and we can see. We thought we suffered. |
| W2:302.1 | we had forgot the Son whom You created. Now we see that darkness is | our own imagining and light is there for us to look upon. Christ's |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits us as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing us | |
| W2:305.2 | Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to us to save us from | our judgment on ourselves. |
| W2:306.2 | And so, | our Father, we return to You, remembering we never went away, |
| W2:307.2 | silently into a state where conflict cannot come because we join | our holy will with God's in recognition that they are but one. |
| W2:310.2 | this day together, you and I. And all the world joins with us in | our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to us, and |
| W2:310.2 | is no room in us for fear today, for we have welcomed love into | our hearts. |
| W2:313.2 | and join with me today. We save the world when we are joined. For in | our vision it becomes as holy as the light in us. |
| W2:314.2 | to be free. Now do we leave the future in Your hands, leaving behind | our past mistakes and sure that You will keep Your present promises |

| W2:WICR.4 | of our eternal unity with Him. Yet back of all our doubts, past all | our fears, there still is certainty. For Love remains with all Its |
| W2:WICR.4 | with all Its thought, Its sureness being theirs. God's memory is in | our holy minds, which know their oneness and their unity with their |
| W2:WICR.4 | which know their oneness and their unity with their Creator. Let | our function be only to let this memory return, only to let God's |
| W2:WICR.5 | Our Father calls to us. We hear His Voice, and we forgive creation in | |
| W2:321.2 | world, which will be freed along with us. How glad are we to find | our freedom through the certain way our Father has established. And |
| W2:321.2 | with us. How glad are we to find our freedom through the certain way | our Father has established. And how sure is all the world's salvation |

| W2:323.2 | and in joy. We are deceived no longer. Love has now returned to | our awareness. And we are at peace again, for fear has gone and only |
| W2:325.2 | Our Father, Your Ideas reflect the truth, and mine apart from Yours | |

| W2:328.1 | we will gain autonomy but by our striving to be separate and that | our independence from the rest of God's creation is the way in which |

| W2:328.1 | nor is there any second to His Will. To join with His is but to find | our own. And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to |
| W2:328.1 | to His Will. To join with His is but to find our own. And since | our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to recognize our will. |
| W2:328.1 | And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to recognize | our will. |
| W2:329.2 | Today we will accept | our union with each other and our Source. We have no will apart from |
| W2:329.2 | Today we will accept our union with each other and | our Source. We have no will apart from His, and all of us are one |
| W2:329.2 | of us. Through it we recognize that we are one. Through it we find | our way at last to God. |
| W2:330.1 | Let us this day accept forgiveness as | our only function. Why should we attack our minds and give them |
| W2:330.1 | day accept forgiveness as our only function. Why should we attack | our minds and give them images of pain? Why should we teach them they |
| W2:330.1 | sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us choose today that He be | our Identity and thus escape forever from all things the dream of |
| W2:330.2 | Son cannot be hurt. And if we think we suffer, we but fail to know | our one Identity we share with You. We would return to It today, to |
| W2:330.2 | You. We would return to It today, to be made free forever from all | our mistakes and to be saved from what we thought we were. |
| W2:332.2 | is given us. And we would not remain as prisoners while You hold out | our freedom unto us. |
| W2:333.2 | chose to shine away all conflict and all doubt and light the way for | our return to You. No light but this can end our evil dreams. No |
| W2:333.2 | and light the way for our return to You. No light but this can end | our evil dreams. No light but this can save the world. For this alone |
| W2:340.2 | Be glad! There is no room for anything but joy and thanks today. | Our Father has redeemed His Son this day! Not one of us but will be |
| W2:341.2 | Let us not then attack | our sinlessness. For it contains the Word of God to us, and in its |
| W2:348.2 | everything that He would have us do. And only that we choose to be | our will, as well as His. |
| W2:349.2 | Our Father knows our needs. He gives us grace to meet them all. And | |

| W2:FL.1 | our footsteps sure. To Him we leave these lessons, as to Him we give | our lives henceforth. For we would not return again to the belief in |
| W2:FL.2 | this way that truth points out to us. And let us be the leaders of | our many brothers who are seeking for the way but find it not. |

| W2:FL.4 | It is | our function to remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His |
| W2:FL.4 | given us to be His own completion in reality. So let us not forget | our goal is shared. For it is that remembrance which contains the |
| W2:FL.4 | way to Him and to the Heaven of His peace. And shall we not forgive | our brother who can offer this to us? He is the way, the truth, and |
| W2:FL.4 | show the way to us. In him resides salvation, offered us through | our forgiveness given unto him. |
| 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 |
| W2:E.5 | to Him for guidance and for peace and right direction. Joy attends | our way. For we go homeward to an open door which God has held |

| Tx:20.26 | are we one, looking with perfect gentleness upon each other and on | ourselves. Here all thoughts of any separation between us become |
| W1:64.5 | to be happy or not. Let us remember this today. Let us remind | ourselves of it in the morning and again at night and all through the |
| W1:72.10 | natural state. To recognize the light of truth in us is to recognize | ourselves as we are. To see our Self as separate from the body is to |
| W1:76.12 | and understood there are no laws but God's. Then we will tell | ourselves as a dedication with which the practice period concludes: |
| W1:76.14 | an hour, as well as in response to any temptation to experience | ourselves as subject to other laws throughout the day. It is our |
| W1:77.3 | Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not content | ourselves with less. |
| W1:78.4 | Today we will attempt to see God's Son. We will not let | ourselves be blind to him; we will not look upon our grievances. So |
| W1:91.4 | great this strength, your doubts would vanish. Today we will devote | ourselves to the attempt to let you feel this strength. When you have |
| W1:95.9 | particularly for the next week or so, to be willing to forgive | ourselves for our lapses in diligence and our failures to follow the |
| W1:98.1 | between the two but take a firm position with the one. We dedicate | ourselves to truth today and to salvation as God planned it be. We |
| W1:98.3 | we may share their certainty and thus increase it by accepting it | ourselves. |
| W1:98.4 | they have come to make their choice again. We do not choose but for | ourselves today. |
| W1:100.5 | We will not let | ourselves be sad today. For if we do, we fail to take the part that |
| W1:100.7 | on you and sees His message in your happy face. We will prepare | ourselves for this today in our five minute practice periods by |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will try again to bring to truth today and teach | ourselves: |
| W1:104.8 | joy and peace belong to us as His eternal gifts. We will not let | ourselves lose sight of them between the times we come to seek for |
| W1:109.11 | rest. And we remind them of their resting place each time we tell | ourselves, |
| W1:124.5 | them to life. All this we see because we saw it first within | ourselves. |
| W1:124.7 | we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we would experience | ourselves at one with Him, so that the world may share our |
| W1:125.3 | and without all judgment of His holy Word. We will not judge | ourselves today, for what we are cannot be judged. We stand apart |
| W1:139.1 | Here is the end of choice. For here we come to a decision to accept | ourselves as God created us. And what is choice except uncertainty of |
| W1:140.8 | our Father placed it there for us. It is not further from us than | ourselves. It is as near to us as our own thoughts—so close it is |
| W1:153.19 | Today our theme is our defenselessness. We clothe | ourselves in it as we prepare to meet the day. We rise up strong in |
| W1:153.19 | as we remember that His strength abides in us. We will remind | ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and never leaves |
| W1:154.1 | humble. We have gone beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge | ourselves, nor need we do so. These are but attempts to hold decision |
| W1:154.15 | Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our minds about | ourselves and what our function is. For as we prove that we accept no |
| W1:158.11 | today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon | ourselves as well. |
| W1:165.7 | between Him and your certainty of Him. We count on God and not upon | ourselves to give us certainty. And in His Name we practice as His |
| W1:181.9 | This will become the only thing we see reflected in the world and in | ourselves. |
| W1:186.8 | illusions rest upon the weird belief that we can make another for | ourselves. Our self-made roles are shifting, and they seem to change |
| W1:193.15 | as we practice, let us think about all things we saved to settle by | ourselves and kept apart from healing. Let us give them all to Him |
| W1:195.5 | and the path of death. All these go with you. Let us not compare | ourselves with them, for thus we split them off in our awareness from |
| W2:I.3 | times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content | ourselves with simple practicing in the remaining holy instants which |
| W2:239.1 | Let not the truth about | ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be |
| W2:239.2 | in this light, and one with You, at peace with all creation and | ourselves. |
| W2:251.2 | And for that peace, our Father, we give thanks. What we denied | ourselves You have restored, and only that is what we really want. |
| W2:262.2 | We who are one would recognize this day the truth about | ourselves. We would come home and rest in unity. For there is peace, |
| W2:272.2 | call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask | ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be content with dreams when |
| W2:305.2 | judge it not. For it has come to us to save us from our judgment on | ourselves. |
| W2:350.1 | What we forgive becomes a part of us as we perceive | ourselves. The Son of God incorporates all things within himself as |

| Tx:1.29 | The purpose of my part in the Atonement is the canceling | out of all lacks of love which men could not otherwise correct. The |
| Tx:1.50 | following up to you. “Lead us not into temptation” means “guide us | out of our own errors.” “Take up thy cross and follow me” means, |
| Tx:1.64 | toward both. The way to perceive for Golden Rule behavior is to look | out from the perception of your own holiness and perceive the |
| Tx:1.71 | a miraculous state of mind. By being one, this state of mind goes | out to anyone, even without the awareness of the miracle worker |
| Tx:1.99 | In sorting | out the false from the true, the miracle proceeds along the following |
| Tx:1.100 | If perfect love casts | out fear, and if fear exists, then there is not perfect love. But |
| Tx:1.104 | of perceptual distortion because it induces, rather than straightens | out, the basic level confusion which underlies the perception of all |
| Tx:2.2 | Project (verb): to extend forward or | out. Project (noun): a plan in the mind. World: a natural grand |
| Tx:2.23 | False projection arises | out of false denial, not out of its proper use. My own role in the |
| Tx:2.23 | False projection arises out of false denial, not | out of its proper use. My own role in the Atonement is one of true |
| Tx:2.79 | In both cases, the will and the behavior are | out of accord, resulting in a situation in which you are doing what |
| Tx:2.98 | because he himself created it. His belief in it seems to render it | out of his control by definition. Yet any attempt to resolve the |
| Tx:2.108 | by man with my help. It is a final healing rather than a meting | out of punishment, however much man may think that punishment is |
| Tx:2.109 | but continue. The first step toward freedom must entail a sorting | out of the false from the true. This is a process of division only in |
| Tx:3.12 | This particularly unfortunate interpretation, which arose | out of the combined misprojections of a large number of my would-be |
| Tx:3.16 | errors including the belief that God rejected man and forced him | out of the Garden of Eden. It is also responsible for the fact that |
| Tx:3.29 | all error. This means that if you perceive truly, you are canceling | out misperceptions in yourself and in others simultaneously. Because |
| Tx:3.30 | with cognition is because you must get your perceptions straightened | out before you can know anything. To know is to be certain. |
| Tx:3.41 | is uncertain by definition. It has to be in conflict because it is | out of accord with itself. |
| Tx:3.44 | only to know. Afterwards it willed ambiguously, and the only way | out of ambiguity is clear perception. The mind returns to its proper |
| Tx:3.48 | deal with unwilling error because it does not will to be blocked | out. I was a man who remembered the Soul and its knowledge, and as a |
| Tx:3.52 | have been greatly confused. When you make something, you make it | out of a sense of lack or need. Anything that is made is made for a |
| Tx:3.61 | this before in terms of the selectivity of perception, pointing | out that evaluation is its obvious prerequisite. |
| Tx:3.62 | only the positive aspects of what is judged, whether it be in or | out of the self. However, what has been perceived and rejected—or |
| Tx:4.8 | its maker can be misguided but cannot make the totally lifeless | out of the life-given. The Soul need not be taught, but the ego must. |
| Tx:4.32 | beyond its grasp and charity becomes impossible. The ego never gives | out of abundance, because it was made as a substitute for it. That is |
| Tx:4.45 | but also reinterprets the data. However, as Freud correctly pointed | out, what you have repressed can retain a very active life beyond |
| Tx:4.49 | what you have made, and what you made does not love you. Being made | out of the denial of the Father, the ego has no allegiance to its own |
| Tx:4.75 | tangential questions, it hopes to hide the real question and keep it | out of mind. The ego's characteristic busyness with non-essentials is |
| Tx:4.89 | and always approves my Atonement decisions because my will is never | out of accord with His. I have told you before that I am in charge of |
| Tx:4.100 | Being and its experience of His Son's experience. The constant going | out of His love is blocked when His channels are closed, and He is |
| Tx:4.102 | because they are like Him, and they can rejoice together. God goes | out to them and through them, and there is great joy throughout the |
| Tx:5.3 | of your brothers anywhere. You should want to bless them in return | out of gratitude. You do not have to know them individually or they |
| Tx:5.5 | part of the Sonship to rejoice with them and lets God Himself go | out into them and through them. Only the healed mind can experience |
| Tx:5.46 | Atonement, which I have repeatedly asked you to do, is always a way | out of fear. This does not mean that you can safely fail to |
| Tx:5.50 | You cannot cancel | out your past errors alone. They will not disappear from your mind |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you really believe you can make a voice that can drown | out His? Do you really believe that you can devise a thought system |
| Tx:5.93 | But the time is now. You have not been asked to work | out the plan of salvation yourselves because, as I told you before, |
| Tx:6.15 | which I must teach as I learned, is that no perception which is | out of accord with the judgment of the Holy Spirit can be justified. |
| Tx:6.19 | Their own imperfect love made them vulnerable to projection, and | out of their own fear they spoke of the “wrath of God” as His |
| Tx:6.23 | motivate it. The crucifixion was a complex of behaviors arising | out of clearly opposed thought systems. As such, it [is] the perfect |
| Tx:6.26 | you try to keep the fact that you must have attacked yourself first | out of awareness and thus imagine that you have made yourself safe. |
| Tx:6.53 | you can develop your abilities to the point where they can get you | out of it. You have a Guide to how to develop them, but you have no |
| Tx:6.56 | the peace of God, but it could shatter yours. God did not blot it | out, because to eradicate it would be to attack it. Being questioned, |
| Tx:6.75 | The way | out of conflict between two opposing thought systems is clearly to |
| Tx:6.79 | affirmation of what you want. This, then, is a step in the direction | out of conflict since it means that alternatives have been considered |
| Tx:6.82 | or you would share it. In your mind, and your mind only, He sorts | out the true from the false and teaches you to judge every thought |
| Tx:6.82 | is partly in accord with truth, He accepts and purifies. But what is | out of accord entirely, He rejects by judging against. This is how He |
| Tx:6.95 | you must now turn your effort against it. Only this can cancel | out the need for effort and call upon the being which you both have |
| Tx:7.34 | perception does. Properly perceived, it can be used as a way | out of conflict, as all proper perception can. |
| Tx:7.36 | in accord with the laws of God, even in a state of mind which is | out of accord with His. The strength of right perception is so great |
| Tx:7.46 | Since that is His meaning, it is also yours. Your meaning cannot be | out of accord with His because your whole meaning, and your only |
| Tx:7.46 | and your only meaning, comes from His and is like His. God cannot be | out of accord with Himself, and you cannot be out of accord with Him. |
| Tx:7.46 | His. God cannot be out of accord with Himself, and you cannot be | out of accord with Him. You cannot separate your self from your |
| Tx:7.49 | One way shows you an image, or better, an idol which you may worship | out of fear but which you will never love. The other shows you only |
| Tx:7.68 | yourselves of joy. This is not God's Will but yours. If your will is | out of accord with God's, you are willing without meaning. Yet |
| Tx:7.74 | them, and they will have no life for you, because you have put them | out of your mind. While you include them in it, you are giving life |
| Tx:7.79 | that your brothers, who are as incapable of this as you are, are | out to take God from you. Whenever a brother attacks another, this is |
| Tx:7.80 | Him. The peace of God is understanding this. There is only one way | out of the world's thinking, just as there was only one way into it. |
| Tx:7.85 | it away. Giving it is how you keep it. The belief that by giving it | out you have excluded it from within is a complete distortion of the |
| Tx:7.86 | another without perpetuating it about yourself. There is no way | out of this, because it is impossible to fragment the mind. |
| Tx:7.105 | seem to be. The whole separation lies in this fallacy. The only way | out of the fallacy is to decide that you do not have to decide |
| Tx:7.105 | teach you how to distinguish between pain and joy and will lead you | out of the confusion which you have made. There is no confusion in |
| Tx:7.107 | and is therefore natural. The world goes against your nature, being | out of accord with God's laws. The world perceives orders of |
| Tx:7.108 | state of every Son of God. When he is not in a state of grace, he is | out of his natural environment and does not function well. Everything |
| Tx:7.110 | knows only light. Its own radiance shines all around it and extends | out into the darkness of other minds, transforming them into majesty. |
| Tx:7.111 | yourselves not to see it, and this has been very difficult for you. | Out of your natural environment, you may well ask, “What is truth?” |
| Tx:8.6 | opposed ideas, it cannot be integrated. If it is carried | out by these two teachers simultaneously, each one merely interferes |
| Tx:8.10 | is what you are. The lesson is that your will and God's cannot be | out of accord, because they are one. This is the undoing of |
| Tx:8.42 | whose wholeness is for all. We begin the journey back by setting | out together and gather in our brothers as we continue together. |
| Tx:8.62 | the physical if it uses the body to go beyond itself. By reaching | out, the mind extends itself. It does not stop at the body, for if it |
| Tx:8.73 | as a false witness, because you do not realize that it is entirely | out of keeping with what you want. This witness, then, appears to be |
| Tx:8.76 | data which are true. There is no point in trying to make sense | out of meaningless data. Any way you handle them results in nothing. |
| Tx:8.82 | fear of awakening. They are attempts to reinforce unconsciousness | out of fear of consciousness. This is a pathetic way of trying not to |
| Tx:8.85 | to make mindless is impossible since it would mean to make nothing | out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, even though it |
| Tx:8.93 | help you. When we said that the Holy Spirit's function is to sort | out the true from the false in your unconscious, we meant that He has |
| Tx:9.1 | no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right and good to point | out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect sense to the ego, |
| Tx:9.3 | If you point | out the errors of your brother's ego, you must be seeing through |
| Tx:9.14 | are totally non-existent. By steadily and consistently canceling | out all its effects everywhere and in all respects, He teaches that |
| Tx:9.26 | situation” to which the ego always leads. It can be helpful to point | out to a patient where he is heading, but the point is lost unless he |
| Tx:9.42 | ego will begin to attack your motives as soon as they become clearly | out of accord with its perception of you. This is when it will shift |
| Tx:9.52 | it is a form of attack, but your grandeur is of God, Who created it | out of His Love. From your grandeur you can only bless, because your |
| Tx:9.85 | you think you see him, he will disappear into the nothingness | out of which he was made. |
| Tx:9.87 | have removed part of your mind from God's Will, and this means it is | out of control. To be out of control is to be out of reason, and the |
| Tx:9.87 | mind from God's Will, and this means it is out of control. To be | out of control is to be out of reason, and the mind does become |
| Tx:9.87 | and this means it is out of control. To be out of control is to be | out of reason, and the mind does become unreasonable without reason. |
| Tx:9.95 | This is the offering which your god demands because, having made him | out of your insanity, he is an insane idea. He has many forms, but |
| Tx:9.96 | Will. The “attack on God” made His Son think he was fatherless, and | out of his depression, he made the god of depression. This was his |
| Tx:9.103 | Out of your gifts to Him, the Kingdom will be restored to His Son. | |
| Tx:10.2 | the only source of perceived conflict, because the ego was made | out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is nothing |
| Tx:10.3 | Open the dark cornerstone of terror on which it rests and bring it | out into the light. There you will see that it rests on |
| Tx:10.25 | mine,” you will see such beauty that you will know it is not of you. | Out of your joy you will create beauty in His name, for your joy |
| Tx:10.26 | light and in light. The Great Light always surrounds you and shines | out from you. How can you see the dark companions in a light such as |
| Tx:10.27 | spark in you is part of a light so great that it can sweep you | out of all darkness forever. For your Father is your Creator, and you |
| Tx:10.44 | is merely to recognize that their source is not natural, being | out of accord with your true nature. We once said that to will |
| Tx:10.53 | comes only through acceptance, for to analyze means to separate | out. The attempt to understand totality by breaking it up is clearly |
| Tx:10.73 | known. The real world is all that the Holy Spirit has saved for you | out of what you have made, and to perceive only this is salvation |
| Tx:11.11 | emotions of which you are capable. One is false, for it was made | out of denial, and denial depends on the real belief in what is |
| Tx:11.22 | it not. Yet your Redeemer liveth and abideth in you in the peace | out of which He was created. Would you not exchange this awareness |
| Tx:11.32 | God gave you the real world in exchange for the one you made | out of your split mind, and which is the symbol of death. For if you |
| Tx:11.33 | senseless “laws,” and without meaning of any kind. For it was made | out of what you do not want, projected from your mind because you |
| Tx:11.35 | and His Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you will look | out in peace and behold the world truly. Yet to find the place, you |
| Tx:11.36 | as, “Seek and do not find.” This is the one promise the ego holds | out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the ego pursues its |
| Tx:11.45 | this as reinforcement. The only place where you can cancel | out all reinforcement is in yourself. For you are always the first |
| Tx:11.58 | In perfect peace He waits for you at His Father's altar, holding | out the Father's love to you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:11.65 | For you will believe in what you manifest, and as you look | out, so will you see in. Two ways of looking at the world are in your |
| Tx:11.67 | of mind. Perception is projection, and you look in before you look | out. As you look in you choose the guide for seeing, and then you |
| Tx:11.67 | As you look in you choose the guide for seeing, and then you look | out and behold his witnesses. This is why you find what you seek. |
| Tx:11.76 | deathless in yourself, and you will see only the eternal as you look | out upon a world that cannot die. |
| Tx:11.87 | of you, had you not believed that it was the Father Who drove him | out of paradise. For in that belief, the knowledge of the Father was |
| Tx:11.94 | the condition of his Being, which is his perfect blamelessness. | Out of love he was created, and in love he abides. Goodness and mercy |
| Tx:12.13 | then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would shut | out God, and He does not will to be excluded. |
| Tx:12.23 | here and bury you here, leaving you no inheritance except the dust | out of which it thinks you were made. As long as it is reasonably |
| Tx:12.27 | perceiving them as they are. And you will receive messages from them | out of your own past because, by making it real in the present, you |
| Tx:12.49 | his past is yours, you share in this release. Let no dark cloud | out of your past obscure him from you, for truth lies only in the |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for now is the release from time. Reach | out to all your brothers and touch them with the touch of Christ. In |
| Tx:12.55 | join with theirs in power so compelling that it will draw the others | out of darkness as you look on them. |
| Tx:12.56 | unto Christ is following the laws of love of your free will and | out of quiet recognition of the truth in them. The attraction of |
| Tx:12.56 | witnesses to the love you gave them, and it is they who hold it | out to you. In sleep you are alone, and your awareness is narrowed to |
| Tx:12.63 | see it, for whenever judgment enters, reality has slipped away. The | out of mind is out of sight because what is denied is there but is |
| Tx:12.63 | judgment enters, reality has slipped away. The out of mind is | out of sight because what is denied is there but is not recognized. |
| Tx:12.63 | for you to leave the past behind and enter into the world He holds | out to you in love. |
| Tx:12.64 | loves what he loves not and following not the road that love points | out. Love leads so gladly! And as you follow Him, you will rejoice |
| Tx:13.30 | you love them all and equally. Love is not special. If you single | out part of the Sonship for your love, you are imposing guilt on all |
| Tx:13.42 | God would share with you is known. Yet His channels of reaching | out cannot be wholly closed and separated from Him. Peace will be |
| Tx:13.56 | forms and feelings and actions and reactions that you have woven | out of it. Nothing is so alien to you as the simple truth, and |
| Tx:13.73 | Every decision is made for the whole Sonship, directed in and | out and influencing a constellation larger than anything you ever |
| Tx:13.79 | fear. Be quiet in your faith in Him Who loves you and would lead you | out of insanity. Madness may be your choice, but not your reality. |
| Tx:13.90 | that 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 |
| Tx:13.90 | Love. Fail not in your function of loving in a loveless place made | out of darkness and deceit, for thus are darkness and deceit undone. |
| Tx:14.15 | that makes it holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and look | out in peace on all who think they are outside. Cast no one out, for |
| Tx:14.15 | and look out in peace on all who think they are outside. Cast no one | out, for this is what he seeks, along with you. Come, let us join him |
| Tx:14.17 | over it carefully, and you who made these guardians of illusion | out of nothing are now afraid of them. |
| Tx:14.22 | not attempt to communicate the meaningless. But He will separate | out all that has meaning, dropping off the rest and offering your |
| Tx:14.25 | The search for truth is but the honest searching | out of everything that interferes with truth. Truth is. It can be |
| Tx:14.36 | one link which joins them all together, holding them in the oneness | out of which creation happens. |
| Tx:14.43 | and the message which shines forth from what the mirror holds | out for everyone to see no one can fail to understand. It is the |
| Tx:14.46 | nearer or farther. But eternity itself is beyond all time. Reach | out of time and touch it, with the help of its reflection in you. And |
| Tx:14.49 | of Heaven last but a moment and grow dim as darkness blots them | out. Where there was light, darkness removes it in an instant, and |
| Tx:15.3 | be the conviction that it can pursue you beyond the grave. And | out of its unwillingness for you to find peace even in the death it |
| Tx:15.9 | clear and separated from the past, without its shadow reaching | out into the future. Each instant is a clean, untarnished birth, in |
| Tx:15.10 | and think of it as all there is of time. Nothing can reach you here | out of the past, and it is here that you are completely absolved, |
| Tx:15.18 | be. All that you have, you have forever. The blessed instant reaches | out to encompass time, as God extends Himself to encompass you. You |
| Tx:15.21 | Start now to practice your little part in separating | out the holy instant. You will receive very specific instructions as |
| Tx:15.21 | very specific instructions as you go along. To learn to separate | out this single second and begin to experience it as timeless, is to |
| Tx:15.22 | it. Everything in this world is little because it is a world made | out of littleness in the strange belief that littleness can content |
| Tx:15.46 | relationships and thus make them unreal. If you seek to separate | out certain aspects of the totality and look to them to meet your |
| Tx:15.53 | The holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all perception | out of the past, thus removing the frame of reference you have built |
| Tx:15.55 | you can judge the Self of God? God has created it beyond judgment | out of His need to extend His Love. With love in you, you have no |
| Tx:15.68 | on an endless, unrewarding chain of special relationships, forged | out of anger and dedicated to but one insane belief—that the more |
| Tx:15.69 | make of them, you do not know, but you will become willing to find | out if you are willing, first, to perceive what you have made of them. |
| Tx:15.104 | seems fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to cast it | out though it was part of you. Who can perceive part of himself as |
| Tx:15.104 | the perceived conflict of Heaven and hell in him by casting Heaven | out and giving it the attributes of hell without experiencing himself |
| Tx:16.2 | to certain types of problems and in certain people. These it selects | out and joins with. And it never joins except to strengthen itself. |
| Tx:16.30 | will not offset it but will merely drive it underground and | out of sight. It is essential to bring it into sight and to make no |
| Tx:16.31 | The symbols of hate against the symbols of love play | out a conflict which does not exist. For symbols stand for something |
| Tx:16.37 | Heaven waits silently, and your creations are holding | out their hands to help you cross and welcome them. For it is they |
| Tx:16.51 | lies only in the terrible attraction of guilt, which the ego holds | out to those who place their faith in littleness. The conviction of |
| Tx:16.52 | God must die so you can live. And it is this theme which is acted | out in the special relationship. Through the death of your self, you |
| Tx:16.64 | On this side, everything you see is grossly distorted and completely | out of perspective. What is little and insignificant is magnified, |
| Tx:16.69 | by His perfect faith, and it is His faith you share with Him there. | Out of your recognition of your unwillingness for your release, His |
| Tx:16.72 | it brings to the special relationships it chooses in which to act | out its hate are fantasies of your destruction. For the ego holds the |
| Tx:16.73 | not contain the dream of retribution for the past. Would you act | out the dream or let it go? |
| Tx:16.74 | In the special relationship, it does not seem to be an acting | out of vengeance which you seek. And even when the hatred and the |
| Tx:16.74 | to reach awareness is that the special relationship is the acting | out of vengeance on yourself. But what else could it be? In seeking |
| Tx:17.13 | Meet His patience with your impatience at delay in meeting Him. Go | out in gladness to meet with your Redeemer and walk with him in trust |
| Tx:17.13 | in gladness to meet with your Redeemer and walk with him in trust | out of this world and into the real world of beauty and forgiveness. |
| Tx:17.19 | the one with whom the union was sought. For it was formed to get him | out of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can |
| Tx:17.39 | each framed perfectly for what they represent. One is framed to be | out of focus and not seen. The other is framed for perfect clarity. |
| Tx:17.39 | of darkness and of death grows less convincing as you search it | out amid its wrappings. As each senseless stone which seems to shine |
| Tx:17.45 | The reason is quite clear. For the relationship as it is, is | out of line with its own goal and clearly unsuited to the purpose |
| Tx:17.46 | goal. Until this happy solution is seen and accepted as the only way | out of the conflict, the relationship seems to be severely strained. |
| Tx:17.60 | this approach has brought you closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting | out of truth and falsity. The true becomes what can be used to meet |
| Tx:18.3 | many forms, and each seems to require a different form of acting | out for satisfaction. While this appears to introduce quite variable |
| Tx:18.3 | for either acceptance or rejection of suitability for acting | out a special form of fear. |
| Tx:18.5 | you the enormity of the original error, which seemed to cast you | out of Heaven, to shatter knowledge into meaningless bits of |
| Tx:18.7 | The truth will save you. It has not left you to go | out into the mad world and so depart from you. Inward is sanity; |
| Tx:18.12 | peace in those who heard? Return with me to Heaven, walking together | out of this world and through another to the loveliness and joy the |
| Tx:18.13 | world contains. It is the only one which has no limits and reaches | out to every broken fragment of the Sonship with healing and uniting |
| Tx:18.16 | disturbing. You recognize that what you see on waking is blotted | out in dreams. Yet on awakening, you do not expect it to be gone. In |
| Tx:18.17 | a world which you prefer is terrifying. Your attempts to blot | out reality are very fearful, but this you are not willing to accept. |
| Tx:18.18 | to make the dream. You do not realize that you are making them act | out for you, for if you did, the guilt would not be theirs, and the |
| Tx:18.24 | The light is in you. Darkness can cover it but cannot put it | out. |
| Tx:18.51 | attack, but it can make fantasies and direct the body to act them | out. Yet it is never what the body does that seems to satisfy. Unless |
| Tx:18.51 | to satisfy. Unless the mind believes the body is actually acting | out its fantasies, it will attack the body by increasing the |
| Tx:18.54 | and blaming it for what you wished it to do. It is impossible to act | out fantasies. For it is still the fantasies you want, and they have |
| Tx:18.55 | in a separate prison, removed and unreachable, incapable of reaching | out as being reached. You hate this prison you have made and would |
| Tx:18.56 | which reach each other.] Mind reaches to itself. It does not go | out. Within itself it has no limits, and there is nothing outside it. |
| Tx:18.58 | You can stretch | out your hand and reach to Heaven. You whose hands are joined have |
| Tx:18.62 | yourself in peace. Not through destruction, not through a “breaking | out,” but merely by a quiet “melting in.” For peace will join you |
| Tx:18.72 | can you join Him there. Limits on love will always seem to shut Him | out and to keep you apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a |

| Tx:18.80 | Go | out and find them, for they bring your Self with them. And lead them |

| Tx:19.25 | Fear can become so acute that the sin is denied the acting | out, but while the guilt remains attractive the mind will suffer and |
| Tx:19.25 | it. And only an avenger with a mind unlike your own could stamp it | out through fear. |
| Tx:19.40 | its home, its tranquil dwelling-place from which it gently reaches | out but never leaving you. If you would make it homeless, how can it |
| Tx:19.46 | little insane wish to get rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him | out must produce conflict. As you look upon the world, this little |
| Tx:19.50 | and gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly ordered to seek | out guilt and cherish every scrap of evil and of sin which they can |
| Tx:19.63 | Peace is extended from you only to the eternal, and it reaches | out from the eternal in you. It flows across all else. The second |
| Tx:19.74 | this is not so, but as the “enemy” of peace, it urges you to send | out all your messages of hate and free yourself. And to convince you |
| Tx:19.77 | no hold at all except on those who are attracted to it and seek it | out. And so it is with death. Made by the ego, its dark shadow falls |
| Tx:19.87 | 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:19.92 | made with the ego to keep what lies beyond the veil forever blotted | out and unremembered. Here is your promise never to allow union to |
| Tx:19.92 | unremembered. Here is your promise never to allow union to call you | out of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of God seems |
| Tx:19.103 | sin upon Him to hide His loveliness. Yet still He holds forgiveness | out to you to share His holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still |
| Tx:20.6 | given and received. For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold | out nor take. Only the mind can value, and only the mind decides on |
| Tx:20.19 | to a world made fearful by their adjustments. And they look | out in sorrow from what is sad within and see the sadness there. |
| Tx:20.24 | 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 God |
| Tx:20.65 | about him will seem real there. You closed your eyes to shut him | out. Such was your purpose, and while this purpose seems to have any |
| Tx:20.74 | do you want the purpose which they serve? This world seems to hold | out many purposes, each different and with different values. Yet they |
| Tx:20.76 | And meaning always looks within to find itself and then looks | out. All meaning that you give the world outside must thus reflect |
| Tx:21.38 | The intention is in the mind, which tries to use the body to carry | out the means for sin in which the mind believes. Thus is the joining |
| Tx:21.47 | has come 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 |
| Tx:21.49 | Perception selects and makes the world you see. It literally picks it | out as the mind directs. The laws of size and shape and brightness |
| Tx:21.49 | prefer to overlook. The still small Voice for God is not drowned | out by all the ego's raucous screams and senseless ravings to those |
| Tx:21.56 | need of it. Knowledge does not depend on it, and madness keeps it | out. |
| Tx:21.62 | Madness is an attack on reason that drives it | out of mind and takes its place. Reason does not attack but takes the |
| Tx:21.66 | from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds | out for everyone to look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:21.68 | The Son of God is always blessed as one. And as his gratitude goes | out to you who blessed him, reason will tell you that it cannot be |
| Tx:21.72 | treacherous because they have no need to dream of power and to act | out their dream. How would an army act in dreams? Any way at all. It |
| Tx:21.88 | no one fails to ask for his desire of something he believes holds | out some promise of the power of giving it. He may be wrong in what |
| Tx:22.4 | It must extend, as you extended when you joined. It must reach | out beyond itself, as you reached out beyond the body to let |
| Tx:22.4 | when you joined. It must reach out beyond itself, as you reached | out beyond the body to let yourselves be joined. And now the sameness |
| Tx:22.17 | is possible in the dark world of misery is to select some aspects | out of it, see them as different, and define the difference as joy. |
| Tx:22.19 | is faith in sin if the belief excludes one living thing and holds it | out apart from its forgiveness. |
| Tx:22.44 | Standing before the veil, it still seems difficult. But hold | out your joined hands and touch this heavy-seeming block, and you |
| Tx:22.46 | be defended against and sacrificed. For sin is carved into a block | out of your peace and laid between you and its return. Yet how can |
| Tx:22.47 | you would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to keep love | out. God rests with you in quiet, undefended and wholly undefending, |
| Tx:22.48 | its feeble squeaks that tell of its omnipotence and would drown | out the hymn of praise to its Creator which every heart throughout |
| Tx:23.12 | is insane, and they remain part of what made them. Madness holds | out no menace to reality and has no influence upon it. Illusions |
| Tx:23.15 | be remembered. Yet no illusion can invade His home and drive Him | out of what He loves forever. And what He loves must be forever quiet |
| Tx:23.19 | never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly meaningful and therefore | out of reason's sphere. Yet they appear to constitute an obstacle to |
| Tx:23.44 | It can be kept shining before your vision, forever clear and never | out of sight if you defend it not. |
| Tx:24.14 | impossible even to imagine without this base. For sin arose from it | out of nothingness; an evil flower with no roots at all. Here is the |
| Tx:24.18 | Here stands your brother with the key to Heaven in his hand held | out to you. Let not the dream of specialness remain between you. What |
| Tx:24.33 | 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:24.41 | he picked a thread from here, a scrap from there, and wove a picture | out of nothing. For the parts do not belong together, and the whole |
| Tx:24.43 | gleams that spark an instant from the fireflies of sin and then go | out, to lead the other to a nameless precipice and hurl him over it. |
| Tx:24.46 | the sound of battle and of death. He reaches through them, holding | out His hand that everyone may bless all living things and see their |
| Tx:24.61 | wills is possible, and there is no alternative for Him to see. | Out of His lack of conflict comes your peace. And from His purpose |
| Tx:24.66 | and rests in light as safely as itself. Nor will that light go | out when it is gone. Its holy purpose gave it immortality, setting |
| Tx:25.27 | unchanged beyond the pitiful attempts of specialness to put it | out of mind where it must be and light the body up instead of it. The |
| Tx:25.27 | For he has come with Heaven's Help within him ready to lead him | out of darkness into light at any time. |
| Tx:25.42 | you give to him is given you, and you will walk the way you pointed | out to him because it is your judgment on yourself. |
| Tx:25.72 | cannot accept it for yourself. It is His special function to hold | out to you the gifts the innocent deserve. And every one that you |
| 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 treasure |
| Tx:25.79 | they be received. Nor is the treasure less as it is given | out. Each gift [received] but adds to the supply. For God is fair. He |
| Tx:26.2 | it looks as if what is inside can never reach without, and what is | out can never reach and join with what is locked away within the |
| Tx:26.7 | no more be sacrificed by you than can the light in you be blotted | out because he sees it not. You who would make a sacrifice of life |
| Tx:26.11 | a sacrifice that you might gain. And when the situation is worked | out so no one loses, is the problem gone, because it was an error in |
| Tx:26.20 | have meaning still, and yet it can be seen that they are temporary, | out of place, and every choice has been already made. |
| Tx:26.37 | a change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that calls | out from a past forever more gone by. And everything which points to |
| Tx:26.49 | seem to be apart from them. Ideas are of the mind. What is projected | out and seems to be external to the mind is not outside at all but an |
| Tx:26.70 | still obscured that is the source of fear. Salvation would wipe | out the space you see between you still and let you instantly become |
| Tx:26.72 | fear have overlooked but which is all there is to time. The working | out of all correction takes no time at all. |
| Tx:26.73 | Yet the acceptance of the working | out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:27.30 | meaningless. He represents a double thought, where half is canceled | out by the remaining half. Yet even this is quickly contradicted by |
| Tx:27.30 | half. Yet even this is quickly contradicted by the half it canceled | out, and so they both are gone. And now he stands for nothing. |
| Tx:27.31 | with power or to see as weak. The picture has been wholly canceled | out because it symbolized a contradiction which canceled out the |
| Tx:27.31 | canceled out because it symbolized a contradiction which canceled | out the thought it represents. And thus the picture has no cause at |
| Tx:27.34 | other half of what it represents remains unknown but is not canceled | out. And thus is God left free to take the final step Himself. [For |
| Tx:27.80 | are you not the dreamer but the dream. And so you wander idly in and | out of places and events which it contrives. That this is all the |
| Tx:28.1 | The miracle does nothing. All it does is to undo. And thus it cancels | out the interference to what has been done. It does not add, but |
| Tx:28.11 | extension back into the mind Which caused all minds to be. Born | out of sharing, there can be no pause in time to cause the miracle |
| Tx:28.13 | remembering came in between the present and the past to shut them | out. |

| Tx:28.44 | into place again. This holy picture, healed entirely, does He hold | out to every separate piece that thinks it is a picture in itself. To |
| Tx:28.58 | Sickness is anger taken | out upon the body, so that it will suffer pain. It is the obvious |
| Tx:29.45 | The lingering illusion will impel him to seek | out a thousand idols and to seek beyond them for a thousand more. And |
| Tx:29.54 | Him, alone in darkness. Yet the light is there. A cloud does not put | out the sun. No more a veil can banish what it seems to separate nor |
| Tx:29.56 | does not restore the truth, the light the veil between has not put | out. It merely lifts the veil and lets the truth shine unencumbered, |
| Tx:29.64 | you have accomplished and have done to make you sinful and put | out the light within you. Little children, it is there. You do but |
| Tx:30.1 | these steps lead you from dreams of judgment to forgiving dreams and | out of pain and fear. They are not new to you, but they are more |
| Tx:30.10 | Now the answer will provoke attack unless you quickly straighten | out your mind to want an answer that will work. Be certain this has |

| Tx:30.88 | Do not interpret | out of solitude, for what you see means nothing. It will shift in |

| W1:66.3 | to its attacks on truth. We will merely be glad that we can find | out what truth is. |
| W1:68.5 | is simply a question of motivation. Today we will try to find | out how you would feel without them. If you succeed even by ever so |
| W1:69.6 | the light in you today—now. Determine to go past the clouds. Reach | out and touch them in your mind; brush them aside with your hand; |
| W1:72.15 | feel your confidence wane and your hope of success flicker and go | out, repeat your question and your request, remembering that you are |
| W1:73.1 | you share with God. This is not the same as the ego's idle wishes, | out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The will you share with |
| W1:73.5 | can be found without. Grievances darken your mind, and you look | out on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts |
| W1:74.9 | area which seems particularly difficult to resolve, single it | out for special consideration. Think about it briefly but very |
| W1:78.4 | our grievances. So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look | out toward truth, away from fear. |
| W1:80.5 | that your problems have been solved. Recognize that you are | out of conflict, free, and at peace. Above all, remember that you |
| W1:90.5 | problem comes first, and time must elapse before it can be worked | out. I do not see the problem and the answer as simultaneous in their |
| W1:92.8 | is not the light you see. It does not change and flicker and go | out. It does not shift from night to day and back to darkness till |
| W1:95.18 | you to feel this Self within you and to cast all your illusions | out of the One Mind which is this Self, the holy truth in you. |
| W1:96.15 | it and give it peace. Restored in strength, it will again flow | out from Spirit to the Spirit in all things created by the Spirit as |
| W1:97.7 | the tiny gleam a firefly makes an uncertain moment, and goes | out. Yet will the steady brilliance of this light remain, and leads |
| W1:97.7 | Yet will the steady brilliance of this light remain, and leads you | out of darkness, nor will you be able to forget the way again. |
| W1:99.11 | Practice His thought today, and let His Light seek | out and lighten up all darkened spots and shine through them to join |
| W1:100.2 | His Will? The part that He has saved for you to take in working | out His plan is given you that you might be restored to what He |
| W1:101.2 | they ask for, for they know it waits for them and it will seek them | out and find them somewhere, sometime, in some form which evens the |
| W1:101.4 | Who would seek | out such savage punishment? Who would not flee salvation and attempt |
| W1:101.4 | accept Its offering? If sin is real, its offering is death and meted | out in cruel form to match the vicious wishes in which sin is born. |
| W1:106.3 | do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness within His hand, held | out to you in welcome and in love. Hear only Him today, and do not |
| W1:108.10 | close your eyes, and for five minutes think of what you would hold | out to everyone to have it yours. You might, for instance, say: |
| W1:122.11 | into happiness as you begin these practice periods, for they hold | out the sure rewards of questions answered, and what your acceptance |
| W1:122.11 | peace forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil holds | out to you. |
| W1:124.10 | own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an hour will hold | out to you to look upon yourself. When you are ready, you will find |
| W1:126.3 | to you directly. You give charity to one unworthy merely to point | out that you are better, on a higher plane than he whom you forgive. |
| W1:126.3 | equality with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It holds | out a gift to him but hardly to yourself. |
| W1:131.16 | Put | out your hand and see how easily the door swings open with your one |
| W1:132.4 | give it meaning. And what you behold upon it are your wishes, acted | out so you can look on them and think them real. |
| W1:132.19 | across the world as well as to the ones you see near by as you send | out these thoughts to bless the world. But you will sense your own |
| W1:135.12 | A healed mind does not plan. It carries | out the plans which it receives through listening to Wisdom that is |
| W1:137.5 | Healing might thus be called a counter-dream which cancels | out the dream of sickness in the name of truth but not in truth |
| W1:153.18 | Think you He will not make this possible for you who chose to carry | out His plan for the salvation of the world and yours? |
| W1:155.7 | Their suffering is but illusion. Yet they need a guide to lead them | out of it, for they mistake illusion for the truth. |
| W1:155.11 | forth toward this as we progress along the way that truth points | out to us. This is our final journey, which we make for everyone. We |
| W1:157.8 | which you make and start today with the experience this day holds | out to you to be your own. |
| W1:158.1 | mind, sinless forever, wholly unafraid because you were created | out of Love. Nor have you left your Source, remaining as you were |
| W1:159.10 | Behold the store of miracles set | out for you to give. Are you not worth the gift when God appointed it |
| W1:160.6 | return impossible. His way is lost except a miracle will search him | out and show him that he is no stranger now. The miracle will come. |
| W1:161.5 | that we feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts | out our life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete form of fear. |
| W1:164.9 | Can His promise fail? Can you withhold so little when His Hand holds | out complete salvation to His Son? |
| W1:170.7 | dictates and refuse to question them. Harsh punishment is meted | out relentlessly to those who ask if the demands are sensible or even |
| W1:R5.8 | what they see, but still retaining in his mind the way that led him | out and now will lead you out with him. God's Son is crucified until |
| W1:R5.8 | retaining in his mind the way that led him out and now will lead you | out with him. God's Son is crucified until you walk along the road |
| W1:182.6 | He is far from home. He is so little that He seems so easily shut | out, His tiny Voice so readily obscured, His calls for help almost |
| W1:183.2 | the ground on which you stand and sing to you as they spread | out their wings to keep you safe and shelter you from every worldly |
| W1:184.1 | a separate entity, identified by its own name. By this you carve it | out of unity. By this you designate its special attributes and set it |
| W1:186.11 | each morning to dispel the night, your truly given function stands | out clear and wholly unambiguous. There is no doubt of its validity. |
| W1:189.4 | innocence they see surrounding them, the joy with which they look | out from the endless wells of joy within. What they have felt in them |
| W1:189.5 | bony fingers. If you feel the Love of God within you, you look | out upon a world of mercy and of love. |
| W1:190.2 | by an eternal Love which could not leave the Son whom It created | out of love. |
| W1:191.5 | is the gift he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed | out the way to happiness that changed his whole perception of the |
| W1:193.4 | lesson has been changed to guiltlessness; the hatred has been rooted | out by love. |
| W1:197.5 | His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever giving | out, extending love, and adding to your never-ending joy, while you |
| W1:198.4 | Forgiveness is the only road that leads | out of disaster, past all suffering, and finally away from death. How |
| W1:200.2 | 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 to |
| W2:241.1 | 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. The |
| W2:256.2 | to hear Your Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has pointed | out to us. |
| W2:299.2 | mine to suffer from attack. Illusions can obscure it but cannot put | out its radiance nor dim its light. It stands forever perfect and |
| W2:315.1 | And everyone who finds the way to God becomes my savior, pointing | out the way to me and giving me his certainty that what he learned is |
| W2:327.2 | Your promises will never fail in my experience if I but test them | out. Let me attempt therefore to try them and to judge them not. Your |
| W2:330.1 | 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 theirs? |
| W2:332.2 | it is given us. And we would not remain as prisoners while You hold | out our freedom unto us. |
| W2:334.1 | must be vain and dreams are gone, even while they are woven | out of thoughts that rest on false perception. Let me not accept such |
| W2:355.1 | in exile. I am sure my treasure waits for me, and I need but reach | out my hand to find it. Even now my fingers touch it. It is very |
| W2:357.1 | the prison house in which I think I live. Your holy Son is pointed | out to me, first in my brother, then in me. Your Voice instructs me |
| W2:FL.2 | the way to go. Let us together follow in this way that truth points | out to us. And let us be the leaders of our many brothers who are |
| M:I.5 | are they? How are they chosen? What do they do? How can they work | out their own salvation and the salvation of the world? This manual |
| M:1.4 | Will of God? But time, with its illusions of change and death, wears | out the world and all things in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is |
| M:2.4 | he now relives. So has the teacher, too, made an inevitable choice | out of an ancient past. God's Will in everything but seems to take |
| M:4.1 | is, of course, only temporary—set in time as a means of leading | out of time. These special gifts, born in the holy relationship |
| M:4.7 | this distress entirely. There is, however, no point in sorting | out the valuable from the valueless unless the next obvious step is |
| M:4.8 | at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his whole way | out. “Give up what you do not want and keep what you do.” How simple |
| M:4.19 | The teacher of God is generous | out of self-interest. This does not refer, however, to the self the |
| M:5.10 | illusions can have no effect. The truth in their minds reaches | out to the truth in the minds of their brothers, so that illusions |
| M:8.2 | recognized as being untrue. The mind therefore seeks to make it true | out of its intensity of desire to have it for itself. Illusions are |
| M:8.4 | It is in the sorting | out and categorizing activities of the mind that errors in perception |
| M:8.6 | the understanding that only two categories are meaningful in sorting | out the messages the mind receives from what appears to be the |
| M:11.3 | paradoxical situation—one without meaning and devoid of sense, yet | out of which no way seems possible—God has sent His Judgment to |
| M:13.8 | contains it not, but learn this course and it is yours. God holds | out His Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What other way is |
| M:15.3 | in this, and you will go beyond belief to certainty. One instant | out of time can bring time's end. Judge not, for you but judge |
| M:15.4 | judgment waits for you to set you free. What can the world hold | out to you, regardless of your judgments on its gifts, that you would |

| M:18.3 | Anger but screeches, “Guilt is real.” Reality is blotted | out as this insane belief is taken as replacement for God's Word. The |
| M:19.1 | the interpretations to which injustice gives rise and cancels them | out. Neither justice nor injustice exists in Heaven, for error is |
| M:20.3 | How is this quiet found? No one can fail to find it who but seeks | out its conditions. God's peace can never come where anger is, for |
| M:20.3 | what but peace is opposite to war? Here the initial contrast stands | out clear and apparent. Yet when peace is found, the war is |
| M:22.2 | 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 the |
| M:24.2 | If he is laying the groundwork for a future life, he can still work | out his salvation only now. To some there may be comfort in the |

| M:27.3 | Death is the symbol of the fear of God. His love is blotted | out in the idea, which holds it from awareness like a shield held to |

| Tx:10.44 | of what it is. Everything that stems from the ego is the natural | outcome of its central belief, and the way to undo its results is |
| Tx:15.3 | you it cannot tolerate. The ego wants you dead, but not itself. The | outcome of its strange religion must therefore be the conviction that |
| Tx:17.58 | belongs at the beginning, for it is this which will determine the | outcome. In the ego's procedure, this is reversed. The situation |
| Tx:17.58 | this is reversed. The situation becomes the determiner of the | outcome, which can be anything. The reason for this disorganized |
| Tx:17.59 | or does it call for vengeance? The absence of a criterion for | outcome set in advance makes understanding doubtful and evaluation |
| Tx:17.61 | advantages. If the situation is used for truth and sanity, its | outcome must be peace. And this is quite apart from what the outcome |
| Tx:17.61 | its outcome must be peace. And this is quite apart from what the | outcome is. If peace is the condition of truth and sanity and cannot |

| Tx:22.52 | the Holy Spirit waits in gentle patience, as certain of the | outcome as He is sure of His Creator's love. He knows this mad |
| Tx:23.26 | is no sight of help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the | outcome. And God Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His |
| Tx:24.2 | is a conclusion based on everything that you believe. It is the | outcome of belief and follows it as surely as does suffering follow |
| Tx:24.4 | results. All that can be denied is their reality, but not their | outcome. |
| Tx:25.12 | in the world as you perceive it. Yet it must be evident the | outcome does not change. Despite your hopes and fancies, always does |
| Tx:25.13 | respect is hardly worth delaying change that might result in better | outcome? For one thing is sure—the way you see, and long have seen, |
| Tx:26.23 | is. The real world is the area of choice made real, not in the | outcome but in the perception of alternatives for choice. That there |
| Tx:26.75 | is but one effect which it engenders and one form in which its | outcome is perceived. This interval in time, when retribution is |
| Tx:31.6 | in the Voice that speaks for Him. Which lesson will you learn? What | outcome is inevitable, sure as God, and far beyond all doubt and |
| Tx:31.6 | all doubt and question? Can it be your little learning, strange in | outcome and incredible in difficulty, will withstand the simple |
| Tx:31.7 | The lessons to be learned are only two. Each has its | outcome in a different world. And each world follows surely from its |
| Tx:31.7 | world. And each world follows surely from its source. The certain | outcome of the lesson that God's Son is guilty is the world you see. |
| Tx:31.7 | you can seek for here and hope to find. Yet this is not the only | outcome which your learning can produce. However much you may have |
| Tx:31.8 | The | outcome of the lesson that God's Son is guiltless is a world in which |
| Tx:31.11 | wish to make the wrong decision on what you would learn and have an | outcome that you do not want? It is the recognition that it is a |
| Tx:31.11 | that becomes the means whereby the choice is reassessed; another | outcome seen to be preferred. You are deceived if you believe you |
| Tx:31.11 | And behold! Your answer is the proof of what you learned. Its | outcome is the world you look upon. |
| Tx:31.15 | a choice and gives but the illusion it is free, for it will have one | outcome either way. Thus is it really not a choice at all. The leader |
| Tx:31.17 | Between these two is choice because from them there is a different | outcome. If he be the leader or the follower to you, it matters not, |
| Tx:31.17 | life, for hate or for forgiveness and for help, is not the same in | outcome. Hear the one, and you are separate from him and are lost. |
| Tx:31.23 | a way you go together, not alone. And in this choice is learning's | outcome changed, for Christ has been reborn to both of you. |
| Tx:31.27 | all. Why should you? What would be the gain to you? What could the | outcome be that you would want? And how could murder bring you |

| W1:24.4 | that you have a number of goals in mind as part of the desired | outcome and also that these goals are on different levels and often |
| W1:24.7 | and so on. Try to cover as many different kinds of | outcome as may honestly occur to you, even if some of them do not |

| W1:169.10 | in meaningful relationships, the course it runs directed, and its | outcome sure. |
| W1:185.3 | the same intent. To each the hero of the dream is different—the | outcome wanted not the same for both. Loser and gainer merely shift |
| W2:WIHS.2 | it has in truth. For learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to the | outcome He perceives for it, becomes the means to go beyond itself, |

| M:1.4 | It is old and worn and without hope. There was never a question of | outcome, for what can change the Will of God? But time, with its |

| M:6.3 | to give them. Once they have done that, they have also given the | outcome, for that is part of the gift. No one can give if he is |
| M:7.5 | The real basis for doubt about the | outcome of any problem that has been given to God's Teacher for |
| M:10.6 | he recognizes its cost. All of the ugliness he sees about him is its | outcome. All of the pain he looks upon is its result. All of the |
| M:17.2 | must lead to undesired outcomes. Nor should it be forgotten that the | outcome that results will always come to teacher and to pupil. How |

| Tx:24.4 | Beliefs will never openly attack each other, because conflicting | outcomes are impossible. But an unrecognized belief is a decision to |

| W1:186.3 | shrink from our assignment on the specious grounds that modesty is | outraged. It is pride that would deny the call of God Himself. |
outrageous (4) | ||
| Tx:6.13 | I elected both for your sake and mine to demonstrate that the most | outrageous assault as judged by the ego did not matter. As the world |

| Tx:2.17 | from others to you. Peace is an attribute in you. You cannot find it | outside. All mental illness is some form of external searching. |
| Tx:2.57 | a compromise approach to mind and body, in which something from the | outside is temporarily given healing belief. |
| Tx:4.41 | not understandable to the ego, which interprets it as if something | outside is inside, and this does not mean anything. The word “within” |
| Tx:6.46 | without it. This enables the ego to regard itself as separate and | outside its maker, thus speaking for the part of your mind that |
| Tx:6.46 | for the part of your mind that believes you are separate and | outside the Mind of God. The ego, then, raised the first question |
| Tx:6.94 | is without illusions and therefore within the Kingdom. Everything | outside the Kingdom is illusion, but you must learn to accept truth, |
| Tx:6.94 | the Kingdom of God in your minds and thus placed part of your mind | outside it. What you have made has thus divided your will and given |
| Tx:7.14 | Outside the Kingdom, the law which prevails inside it is adapted to | |
| Tx:7.14 | to “what you project you believe.” This is its teaching form, since | outside the Kingdom teaching is mandatory, because learning is |
| Tx:9.59 | you believe that anything which happens to you is caused by factors | outside yourself. You must learn that time is solely at your |
| Tx:10.13 | The projection of the ego makes it appear as if God's Will is | outside yourself and therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it |
| Tx:11.29 | “arrangement” with the world. He always perceives this world as | outside himself, for this is crucial to his adjustment. He does not |
| Tx:11.29 | He does not realize that he makes this world, for there is no world | outside of him. |
| Tx:11.30 | projects the split, not the reality. Everything you perceive as the | outside world is merely your attempt to maintain your ego |
| Tx:11.31 | is why you must realize that your hatred is in your mind and not | outside it before you can get rid of it and why you must get rid of |
| Tx:11.34 | of its maker along with his real salvation. Do not believe it is | outside of yourself, for only by recognizing where it is will you |
| Tx:11.40 | your home whether you know where it is or not. If you believe it is | outside yourself, the search will be futile, for you will be seeking |
| Tx:11.68 | because you made them different. The mind then sees a divided world | outside itself but not within. This gives it an illusion of integrity |
| Tx:12.71 | outer worlds. However holy his perception may become, no world | outside himself holds his inheritance. Within himself he has no |
| Tx:13.8 | all unite in the eternity of God the Father. The holy light you saw | outside yourself in every miracle you offered to your brothers will |
| Tx:13.10 | God will open them. For never would He leave His own beloved Son | outside them and beyond Himself. |
| Tx:13.22 | loving is. Their main concern is to perceive the source of guilt | outside themselves, beyond their own control. |
| Tx:13.81 | Whose equal love is given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one | outside yourself, alone without you. And so He gives you what is |
| Tx:14.12 | created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one left | outside to suffer guilt alone. The power of God draws everyone to its |
| Tx:14.13 | him. Believe not that you cannot teach His perfect peace. Stand not | outside but join with me within. Fail not the only purpose to which |
| Tx:14.15 | one you see you place within the holy circle of Atonement or leave | outside, judging him fit for crucifixion or for redemption. If you |
| Tx:14.15 | to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all who think they are | outside. Cast no one out, for this is what he seeks, along with you. |
| Tx:15.68 | dedicated to but one insane belief—that the more anger you invest | outside yourself, the safer you become. |
| Tx:15.99 | You think that everyone | outside yourself demands your sacrifice, but you do not see that only |
| Tx:15.100 | easy to understand. Do not try to project it from you and see it | outside yourself. In you are both the question and the answer—the |
| Tx:15.102 | The sign of Christmas is a star, a light in darkness. See it not | outside yourself but shining in the Heaven within and accept it as |
| Tx:15.106 | still recognize it. The meaning of love lies in what you have cast | outside yourself, and it has no meaning at all apart from you. It is |
| Tx:16.23 | without conviction, and it is equally impossible that conviction be | outside of you. You could never have taught freedom unless you did |
| Tx:16.24 | can it be that has not learned it? It must be this that is really | outside yourself, not by your own projection, but in truth. And it is |
| Tx:16.26 | who hold Him and whom He holds are the universe, all else must be | outside, where nothing is. You have taught this, and from far off in |
| Tx:16.26 | in what you taught. For what you taught is true. Alone you stand | outside your teaching and apart from it. But with them you must learn |
| Tx:16.27 | in Him that is not perfect and eternal. All this is you, and nothing | outside of this is you. |
| Tx:16.32 | the storm into the sunlight. On the contrary, it emphasizes guilt | outside the haven by attempting to build barricades against it and |
| Tx:16.35 | to escape from one illusion into another must fail. If you seek love | outside yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred within |
| Tx:16.62 | for the separate union excludes the universe. Far more is left | outside than would be taken in. For God is left without and nothing |
| Tx:16.68 | be the understanding of where Heaven is. From here it seems to be | outside and across the bridge. Yet as you cross to join it, it will |
| 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:17.55 | to make you suffer, but which makes Heaven glad. If Heaven were | outside you, you could not share in its gladness. Yet because it is |
| Tx:17.71 | aspect and complete in every part. You can leave nothing of yourself | outside it and keep the situation holy. For it shares the purpose of |
| Tx:18.7 | the mad world and so depart from you. Inward is sanity; insanity is | outside you. You but believe it is the other way; that truth is |
| Tx:18.7 | is outside you. You but believe it is the other way; that truth is | outside and error and guilt within. Your little senseless |
| Tx:18.8 | wind, dipping and turning till they disappear from sight, far, far | outside you. And turn you to the stately calm within, where in holy |
| Tx:18.8 | takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your mad journey | outside yourself, leading you gently back to the truth and safety |
| Tx:18.8 | insane projections and your wild substitutions which you have placed | outside you to the truth. Thus He reverses the course of insanity and |
| Tx:18.9 | has set the course inward to the truth you share. In the mad world | outside you, nothing can be shared but only substituted, and sharing |
| Tx:18.18 | Yet here is a world, clearly within your mind, that seems to be | outside. You do not respond to it as though you made it, nor do you |
| Tx:18.49 | There is nothing | outside you. That is what you must ultimately learn, for it is [in |
| Tx:18.49 | Oneness and the knowledge that there is nothing else; nothing | outside this Oneness and nothing else within. |
| Tx:18.50 | The belief that you could give and get something else, something | outside yourself, has cost you the awareness of Heaven and the loss |
| Tx:18.56 | not go out. Within itself it has no limits, and there is nothing | outside it. [It encompasses everything.] It encompasses you entirely; |
| Tx:18.57 | The body is | outside you, and but seems to surround you, shutting you off from |
| Tx:18.58 | whose hands are joined have begun to reach beyond the body, but not | outside yourselves, to reach your shared Identity together. Could |
| Tx:18.58 | yourselves, to reach your shared Identity together. Could this be | outside you? Where God is not? Is He a body, and did He create you as |
| Tx:18.71 | Everything you recognize you identify with externals, something | outside itself. You cannot even think of God without a body or some |
| Tx:18.81 | No part of love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God remains | outside His Fatherhood. |
| Tx:18.87 | you, but only yours. You are severely tempted to abandon Him at the | outside ring of fear, but He would lead you safely through and far |
| Tx:18.93 | is the real world where guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the world | outside is seen anew, without the shadow of guilt upon it. Here are |
| Tx:19.37 | elsewhere—from your brothers and from various aspects of the world | outside. Yet peace will gently cover them, extending past completely |
| Tx:19.38 | Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of nothing you see | outside you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy Spirit asks that |
| Tx:19.64 | all obstacles together, for we stand within the gates and not | outside. How easily the gates are opened from within to let peace |
| Tx:20.20 | by the ego, whose image it is and which it loves, and placed | outside you in the world. And to this world must you adjust, as long |
| Tx:20.20 | this world must you adjust, as long as you believe this picture is | outside and has you at its mercy. This world is merciless, and were |
| Tx:20.20 | and has you at its mercy. This world is merciless, and were it | outside you, you should indeed be fearful. Yet it was you who made it |
| Tx:20.22 | believes in sin, but the belief that made it as you see it is not | outside you. Seek not to make the Son of God adjust to his insanity. |
| Tx:20.34 | that you will rest without them? You could no more leave one of them | outside than I could leave you and forget part of myself. |
| Tx:20.37 | finds his function of restoring his Father's laws to what was held | outside them and finding what was lost. Only in time can anything be |
| Tx:20.75 | serve to meet the goal of madness. They are the means by which the | outside world, projected from within, adjusts to sin and seems to |
| Tx:20.76 | find itself and then looks out. All meaning that you give the world | outside must thus reflect the sight you saw within; or better, if you |
| Tx:21.1 | to you it is important. It is the witness to your state of mind, the | outside picture of an inward condition. As a man thinketh, so does he |
| Tx:21.10 | continuity. Nor is it possible to imagine that anything could be | outside, for there is nowhere that this light is not. |
| Tx:21.17 | It is impossible the Son of God be merely driven by events | outside of him. It is impossible that the happenings that come to him |
| Tx:21.17 | nor chance is possible within the universe as God created it, | outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your |
| Tx:22.33 | unable to look beyond the granite block of sin and stopping at the | outside form of nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the |
| Tx:22.33 | the outside form of nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the | outside of everything, the wall that stands between you and the |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no life | outside of Heaven. Where God created life, there life must be. In any |
| Tx:23.37 | in Heaven is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere. | Outside of Heaven, only the conflict of illusions stands; senseless, |
| Tx:24.20 | and in peace so real and so encompassing that nothing stands | outside. Leave all illusions of yourself outside this place to which |
| Tx:24.20 | that nothing stands outside. Leave all illusions of yourself | outside this place to which you come in hope and honesty. |
| Tx:24.72 | this earth without a meeting-place and no encounter. One do you see | outside yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests within, His |

| Tx:25.58 | he has a special part in everyone's escape. He can no more be left | outside without a special function in the hope of peace than could |
| Tx:26.3 | And for this little to belong to you are limits placed on everything | outside, just as they are on everything you think is yours. For |
| Tx:26.49 | What is projected out and seems to be external to the mind is not | outside at all but an effect of what is in and has not left its |
| Tx:26.59 | Sin is belief attack can be projected | outside the mind where the belief arose. Here is the firm conviction |
| Tx:27.26 | you will not even see. The focus of correction has been placed | outside yourself on one who cannot be a part of you while this |
| Tx:27.26 | brother, focus of your hate, unworthy to be part of you and thus | outside yourself—the other half which is denied. And only what is |
| Tx:27.38 | surety. For there the problem will be answered and resolved. | Outside there will be no solution, for there is no answer there that |
| Tx:27.38 | solution, for there is no answer there that could be found. Nowhere | outside a single simple question is ever asked. The world can only |
| Tx:27.62 | not himself. He is the victim of this “something else,” a thing | outside himself for which he has no reason to be held responsible. He |
| Tx:27.62 | bears the suffering. And he cannot escape because its source is seen | outside himself. |
| Tx:27.77 | the story of how it was made by other bodies, born into the world | outside the body, lives a little while and dies, to be united in the |
| Tx:27.83 | is being done to you. The guilt for what you thought is being placed | outside yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your dreams and |
| Tx:27.84 | is this petulant device to keep your innocence by pushing guilt | outside yourself but never letting go! It is not easy to perceive the |
| Tx:28.47 | between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The good is seen | outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating off the self |
| Tx:29.37 | Forgiving dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a world | outside yourself. And leading finally beyond all dreams unto the |
| Tx:29.43 | Seek not | outside yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each time an |
| Tx:29.43 | can substitute and find the happiness His answer brings. Seek not | outside yourself. For all your pain comes simply from a futile search |
| Tx:29.43 | fail. But it is given you to know the truth and not to seek for it | outside yourself. |
| Tx:29.44 | hope, some lingering illusion, or some dream that there is something | outside of himself that will bring happiness and peace to him. If |
| Tx:29.45 | the 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 |
| Tx:29.46 | suffered loss. And by this giving up is life renounced. Seek not | outside yourself. The search implies you are not whole within and |
| Tx:29.46 | within and fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to seek | outside yourself for what you are. |
| Tx:29.48 | and to maintain allegiance to the dream that you must find what is | outside yourself to be complete and happy. It is vain to worship |
| Tx:29.48 | lies in Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek | outside yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the past has |
| Tx:29.49 | decide what it is for. You try to see in it a place of idols found | outside yourself, with power to make complete what is within by |
| Tx:29.50 | And can a dream succeed in making real the pictures it projects | outside itself? Save time, my brothers; learn what time is for. And |
| Tx:29.51 | His Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not | outside your Father for your hope. For hope of happiness is not |
| Tx:29.54 | made tangible and given form and thus perceived as real and seen | outside the mind. Yet it is still a thought and cannot leave the mind |
| Tx:29.65 | his thoughts. Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and real but seen | outside himself, where they can turn against him for his treachery to |
| Tx:29.65 | are real. 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:30.45 | 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 |
| Tx:30.48 | apart from you and in a world which your reality knows nothing of? | Outside you there is no eternal sky, no changeless star, and no |
| Tx:30.58 | a place where hope of happiness can be fulfilled. And no one stands | outside this hope because the world has been united in belief the |
| Tx:30.60 | could create a perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one | outside of Heaven knows how this can be, for understanding this is |
| Tx:30.77 | the willingness to see him as he is. And do not keep a part of him | outside your willingness that he be healed. To heal is to make whole. |
| Tx:30.77 | And what is whole can have no missing parts that have been kept | outside. Forgiveness rests on recognizing this and being glad there |
| Tx:31.57 | The concept of the self embraces all you look upon, and nothing is | outside of this perception. If you can be hurt by anything, you see a |
| W1:4.3 | in the long-range purpose of learning to see the meaningless as | outside you and the meaningful within. It is also the beginning of |
| W1:10.3 | the idea that the thoughts of which you are aware are meaningless, | outside rather than within, and then stressed their past rather than |
| W1:30.2 | We are not attempting to get rid of what we do not like by seeing it | outside. Instead, we are trying to see in the world what is in our |
| W1:32.2 | today will again include two phases, one involving the world you see | outside you and the other the world you see in your mind. In today's |
| W1:32.3 | two or three times while looking around at the world you see as | outside yourself. Then close your eyes and look around your inner |
| W1:33.2 | of shifting. Merely glance casually around the world you perceive as | outside yourself, then close your eyes and survey your inner thoughts |
| W1:44.2 | you must recognize that light is within, not without. You do not see | outside yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing outside you. An |
| W1:44.2 | You do not see outside yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing | outside you. An essential part of this equipment is the light that |
| W1:69.4 | clouds. You can see only the clouds because you seem to be standing | outside the circle and quite apart from it. |
| W1:70.2 | “cost” of accepting today's idea is this: it means that nothing | outside yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can give you |
| W1:70.2 | this: it means that nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing | outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing |
| W1:70.2 | outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing | outside yourself can hurt you or disturb your peace or upset you in |
| W1:70.8 | signifying your recognition that salvation comes from nothing | outside of you. You might put it this way: |
| W1:70.15 | My salvation comes from me. Nothing | outside of me can hold me back. Within me is the world's salvation |
| W1:71.2 | be saved. Thus the source of salvation is constantly perceived as | outside yourself. |
| W1:72.9 | your peace of mind. You have seen yourself in a body and the truth | outside you, locked away from your awareness by the body's |
| W1:72.10 | truth is in us, where it was placed by God. It is the body that is | outside us and is not our concern. To be without a body is to be in |
| W1:85.5 | Source, and so it cannot have left my mind. I will not look for it | outside myself. It is not found outside and then brought in. But from |
| W1:85.5 | left my mind. I will not look for it outside myself. It is not found | outside and then brought in. But from within me it will reach beyond, |
| W1:122.6 | Here is the answer! Would you stand | outside while all of Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be |
| W1:127.11 | them throughout the day because we cannot leave a part of us | outside our love if we would know our Self. At least three times an |
| W1:169.12 | could you finally attain to it forever while a part of you remains | outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in need of you as witness to the |
| W1:170.5 | who make attack and must have first conceived of it. Yet you attack | outside yourself and separate your mind from him who is to be |
| W1:188.6 | way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things | outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. These |
| W1:196.10 | you believed attack could be directed outward and returned from | outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. |
| W1:196.10 | and returned from outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy | outside you had to fear. And thus a god outside yourself became your |
| W1:196.10 | It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. And thus a god | outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the source of fear. |
| W1:197.1 | Here is the second step we take to free your mind from the belief in | outside force pitted against your own. You make attempts at kindness |
| W1:197.6 | But learn to let forgiveness take away the sins you think you see | outside yourself, and you can never think the gifts of God are lent |
| W1:197.9 | who makes your Self complete. And from this Self is no one left | outside. Give thanks for all the countless channels which extend this |
| W2:WIB.1 | else could he be certain he remains within the body, keeping love | outside? |
| W2:263.2 | And while we still remain | outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy |
| W2:WIRW.2 | are no cries of pain and sorrow heard, for nothing here remains | outside forgiveness. And the sights are gentle. Only happy sights and |
| W2:335.1 | to this alone that I respond, however much I seem to be impelled by | outside happenings. I choose to see what I would look upon, and this |
| M:5.2 | for placing God's Son on his Father's throne. God is seen as | outside, fierce and powerful, eager to keep all power for Himself. |
| M:8.3 | these differences come from? Certainly they seem to be in the world | outside. Yet it is surely the mind that judges what the eyes behold. |
| M:8.3 | gives them “meaning.” And this meaning does not exist in the world | outside at all. What is seen as “reality” is simply what the mind |
| M:8.6 | out the messages the mind receives from what appears to be the | outside world. And of these two, but one is real. Just as reality is |
| M:17.9 | responded to your own interpretation which you have projected on an | outside world. Let this grim sword be taken from you now. There is no |

| Tx:2.11 | The world was made as “a natural grand division,” or a projecting | outward of God. That is why everything that He created is like Him. |
| Tx:6.33 | Thoughts begin in the mind of the thinker from which they [extend] | outward. This is as true of God's thinking as it is of yours. Because |
| Tx:6.33 | of mind. You perceive from your mind and extend your perceptions | outward. Although perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, |
| Tx:6.36 | He perceives only what is true in your mind and extends | outward only to what is true in other minds. |
| Tx:6.38 | peace of the Kingdom shines in your mind forever, but it must shine | outward to make you aware of it. The Holy Spirit was given you with |
| Tx:6.39 | before, every idea begins in the mind of the thinker and extends | outward. Therefore, what extends from the mind is still in it, and |
| Tx:6.57 | is an ongoing process, not in time, but in eternity. God's extending | outward, though not His completeness, is blocked when the Sonship |
| Tx:7.2 | to your creations. Only in this way can all creative power extend | outward. God's accomplishments are not yours. But yours are like His. |
| Tx:7.3 | your sons are part of His Sons. To create is to love. Love extends | outward simply because it cannot be contained. Being limitless, it |
| Tx:7.5 | forever, since joy and eternity are inseparable. God extends | outward beyond limits and beyond time, and you who are co-creators |
| Tx:8.18 | fatherhood to His Son, because His own Fatherhood must be extended | outward. You who belong in God have the holy function of extending |
| Tx:11.31 | is a necessary consequence of what you have done. You have projected | outward what is antagonistic to what is inward, and therefore you |
| Tx:11.55 | perception of self-value come from the projection of loving thoughts | outward. Make the world real unto yourself, for the real world is the |
| Tx:13.51 | Seeing is always | outward. Were your thoughts wholly of you, the thought system which |
| Tx:15.68 | are host to it, it will enable you to direct the anger that it holds | outward, thus protecting you. And thus it embarks on an endless, |
| Tx:15.99 | demand total sacrifice of you, you thought it safer to project Him | outward and away from you and not be host to Him. To Him you ascribed |
| Tx:18.6 | That was the first projection of error | outward. The world arose to hide it and became the screen on which it |
| Tx:19.40 | extend unless you keep it. You are the center from which it radiates | outward to call the others in. You are its home, its tranquil |
| Tx:20.55 | is the ego's idol; the belief in sin made flesh and then projected | outward. This produces what seems to be a wall of flesh around the |
| Tx:24.69 | you what you see. Yet it but witnesses to what you taught. It is the | outward picture of a wish—an image that you wanted to be true. |
| W1:2.1 | the idea to whatever your glance rests on. Then increase the range | outward. Turn your head so that you include whatever is to either |
| W1:8.1 | No one really sees anything. He sees only his thoughts projected | outward. The mind's preoccupation with the past is the cause of the |
| W1:34.1 | matter. It must begin with your own thoughts and then extend | outward. It is from your peace of mind that a peaceful perception of |
| W1:189.9 | Him how to find His way. Through every opened door His love shines | outward from its home within and lightens up the world in innocence. |
| W1:196.10 | this had been concealed while you believed attack could be directed | outward and returned from outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy |
| W2:304.1 | mirror, not a fact. And what I look on is my state of mind reflected | outward. I would bless the world by looking on it through the eyes of |
| W2:325.1 | and therefore seeks to find. These images are then projected | outward, looked upon, esteemed as real, and guarded as one's own. |
| M:8.3 | simply what the mind prefers. Its hierarchy of values is projected | outward, and it sends the body's eyes to find it. The body's eyes |

| Tx:2.49 | and protected. Perfectly aware of the right defense, It passes | over all others, looking past error to truth. Because of the real |
| Tx:2.57 | devices is evil. Sometimes the illness has a sufficiently great hold | over a mind to render a person inaccessible to Atonement. In this |

| Tx:5.65 | is arrogant. It attributes to God a punishing intent, and then takes | over this intent as its own prerogative. It tries to usurp all the |
| Tx:5.95 | your thinking to the point at which the error was made and give it | over to the Atonement in peace. Say to yourselves the following as |

| Tx:8.32 | all God's Sons cannot be recognized through the dominion of one will | over another. God's Sons are equal in will, all being the Will of |

| Tx:10.59 | will see it. The resurrection is the complete triumph of Christ | over the ego, not by attack but by transcendence. For Christ does |
| Tx:10.63 | of the devotion of God's Son nor the power of the god he worships | over him. For he places himself at the altar of his god, whether it |
| Tx:11.33 | could not will against Him, and that is why you have no control | over the world you made. It is not a world of will because it is |
| Tx:11.34 | yourself, for only by recognizing where it is will you gain control | over it. For you do have control over your mind since the mind is the |

| Tx:15.81 | seek not to restore it to yourselves. Fear not to give redemption | over to your Redeemer's love. He will not fail you, for He comes from |
| Tx:16.7 | which is its meaning, lies in the strength of God, which hovers | over it and blesses it silently by enveloping it in healing wings. |
| Tx:16.28 | what it is, being joined within it. And so the one who would cross | over is literally transported there. |
| Tx:16.34 | with the “triumph of love” at all. The illusion of love can triumph | over the illusion of hate, but always at the price of making both |
| Tx:16.47 | and in the extension of the “victory” even to the final triumph | over God. In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for |
| Tx:16.52 | If you perceived the special relationship as a triumph | over God, would you want it? Let us not think of its fearful nature |
| Tx:16.53 | which you have made with power you wrested from truth, triumphing | over it and leaving it helpless. See how exactly is this ritual |

| Tx:19.99 | it is over, it seems to make no sense. How can you know that it is | over unless you realize its purpose is accomplished? Here, with the |
| Tx:19.110 | is meaningless. What you had faith in still is faithful and watches | over you in faith so gentle yet so strong that it would lift you far |
| Tx:20.21 | questioned it and whispered, “What are you?” And He Who watches | over all perception answered. Take not the judgment of the world as |
| Tx:20.30 | made to guarantee that you would make mistakes and give them power | over you by accepting their results as your just due. What could this |
| Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and feel the Holy Spirit watching | over you in love and perfect confidence in what He sees. He knows the |
| Tx:20.59 | change in a relationship from sin to holiness should now be almost | over. To the extent you still experience it, you are refusing to |
| Tx:21.26 | same mistake. Nothing created not by your Creator has any influence | over you. And if you think what you have made can tell you what you |
| Tx:21.69 | The power that you have | over the Son of God is not a threat to his reality. It but attests to |
| Tx:22.25 | it must be healed and not with fear. Nothing you made has any power | over you unless you still would be apart from your Creator and with a |
| Tx:22.40 | how thin the drapery that separates you now. Yet it is almost | over in your awareness, and peace has reached you even here before |
| Tx:22.50 | between you and your brother. And not one that truth cannot pass | over lightly and so easily that you must be convinced, in spite of |

| Tx:9.86 | for what it is. This is the right use of selective perception. To | overlook nothingness is merely to judge it correctly, and because of |

| Tx:17.60 | a means to make it happen. You will therefore make every effort to | overlook what interferes with the accomplishment of your objective |
| Tx:18.42 | and hatred from your mind. That is its function. Never attempt to | overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is |
| Tx:19.4 | Do not | overlook our earlier statement that faithlessness leads straight to |

| Tx:20.29 | but what you would receive of him is up to you. It lies in him to | overlook all your mistakes, and therein lies his own salvation. And |
| Tx:20.51 | threatens them as love's approach. Let love draw near them and | overlook the body, as it will surely do, and they retreat in fear, |

| Tx:21.49 | you are far more likely to discover than what you would prefer to | overlook. The still small Voice for God is not drowned out by all the |

| Tx:25.58 | because the form of the alternative is one which he cannot deny nor | overlook nor fail completely to perceive at all. To each his special |
| Tx:25.58 | a special function in the hope of peace than could the Father | overlook His Son and pass him by in careless thoughtlessness. |
| Tx:26.56 | but a little wish that what is true be true; a little willingness to | overlook what is not there; a little sigh that speaks for Heaven as a |

| Tx:4.35 | the ego's struggle to preserve itself and its interpretation of its | own beginning. This beginning is always associated with physical |

| Tx:4.49 | out of the denial of the Father, the ego has no allegiance to its | own maker. You cannot conceive of the real relationship which exists |
| Tx:4.49 | hatred you have for the self you have made. You project onto your | own idea of yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the |
| Tx:4.51 | No force except your | own will is strong enough or worthy enough to guide you. In this you |

| Tx:4.76 | If gold became more plentiful, its value would decrease, and his | own purpose would be defeated. The ego has countenanced some strange |

| Tx:7.47 | he is learning so little. His healing lesson is limited by his | own ingratitude, which is a lesson in sickness. Learning is constant |
| Tx:7.54 | That includes his perception of God, of His creations, and of his | own. He will not appreciate any of them if he regards them fearfully. |
| Tx:7.55 | induces feelings of unreality, and results in utter confusion. Your | own thinking has done this because of its power, but your own |
| Tx:7.55 | Your own thinking has done this because of its power, but your | own thinking can also save you from this, because its power is not of |
| Tx:7.56 | of this source, it is forced to depreciate it. This threatens its | own existence, a state which it finds intolerable. |
| Tx:7.57 | if you side with it by guaranteeing that you will not know your | own safety. The ego cannot afford to know anything. Knowledge is |
| Tx:7.57 | origin and, while the ego does not love you, it is faithful to its | own antecedents, begetting as it was begotten. |
| Tx:7.58 | gives you everything. No one who has everything wants the ego. Its | own maker, then, does not want it. Rejection is therefore the only |
| Tx:7.62 | you really are. The ego therefore wants to engage your mind in its | own delusional system, because otherwise the light of your |
| Tx:7.76 | accept His gift for yourself and as yourself. You cannot know your | own perfection until you have honored all those who were created like |
| Tx:7.78 | want it. This makes you feel deprived of it, and by projecting your | own rejection, you believe that others are taking it from you. One |
| Tx:7.82 | sharing by which you give what you value in order to keep it in your | own mind. |
| Tx:7.84 | lest you give the ego up and free yourself. The ego, using its | own warped version of the laws of God, utilizes the power of the mind |
| Tx:7.86 | That is why those who project from the ego are vigilant for their | own safety. They are afraid that their projections will return and |
| Tx:7.86 | them. They do believe they have blotted their projections from their | own minds, but they also believe their projections are trying to |
| Tx:7.87 | of the laws of God by distorted minds which are misusing their | own power. |
| Tx:7.88 | because they come from an attempt to project responsibility for your | own errors. But having accepted the errors as yours, do not keep |
| Tx:7.92 | knows that the consciousness of all its brothers is included in its | own, as it is included in God. The power of the whole Sonship and of |
| Tx:7.92 | of the whole Sonship and of its Creator is therefore the Soul's | own fullness, rendering its creations equally whole and equal in |
| Tx:7.93 | unfulfillment, and therefore you must create. You may not know your | own creations, but this can no more interfere with their reality than |
| Tx:7.94 | Mind of God. You do not know your joy, because you do not know your | own self-fullness. Exclude any part of the Kingdom from yourself, and |
| Tx:7.95 | awareness whenever you will let Him. They are there as part of your | own being, because your fulfillment includes them. The creations of |
| Tx:7.97 | an expression of this confidence. They are reflections both of your | own proper identification with your brothers and of your own |
| Tx:7.97 | of your own proper identification with your brothers and of your | own awareness that your identification is maintained by extension. |
| Tx:7.104 | that the follower is. However, this too is merely a matter of his | own belief. Believing that he can betray, he believes that everything |
| Tx:7.108 | It is also the only environment that is worthy of him, because his | own worth is beyond anything he can make. |
| Tx:7.110 | He knows. When a mind has only light, it knows only light. Its | own radiance shines all around it and extends out into the darkness |
| Tx:7.111 | Perceiving the Majesty of God as your brother is to accept your | own inheritance. God gives only equally. If you recognize His gift in |
| Tx:8.9 | you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the grounds of your | own experience with the ego's teaching, should not this alone |
| Tx:8.11 | be learned, but the attempt to learn it is a violation of your | own freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The |
| Tx:8.15 | His appeal, then, is merely to what the Kingdom is and for its | own acknowledgment of what it is. When you acknowledge this, you |
| Tx:8.15 | his Creator, because it is the Voice for his creations and for his | own extension. |
| Tx:8.18 | Creator. The Father must give fatherhood to His Son, because His | own Fatherhood must be extended outward. You who belong in God have |
| Tx:8.22 | then, you cannot listen to the ego. Its purpose is to defeat its | own goal. The ego does not know this, because it does not know |
| Tx:8.31 | or not whole. Your will is the means by which you determine your | own condition, because will is the mechanism of decision. It is the |
| Tx:8.50 | do not understand this for a very simple reason. You who are God's | own treasure do not regard yourselves as valuable. Given this belief, |
| Tx:8.57 | Yet all loss comes only from your | own misunderstanding. Loss of any kind is impossible. When you look |
| Tx:8.57 | must have attacked yourself first. Do not see him this way for your | own salvation, which must bring him his. Do not allow him to belittle |
| Tx:8.63 | it will distort its perception of the body and, by blocking its | own extension beyond it, will induce illness by fostering separation. |
| Tx:8.64 | is a fundamental confusion. Learning can hardly be arrested at its | own aids with hope of understanding either the aids or the learning's |
| Tx:8.66 | and is interfering with his ability to accept its purpose as his | own. |
| Tx:8.69 | this is what it believes. The body, then, is not the source of its | own health. The body's condition lies solely in your interpretation |
| Tx:8.71 | characteristic of every end that the ego has accepted as its | own. When you have achieved it, it has not satisfied you. This is why |
| Tx:8.79 | to be a mirror of a split mind. Do not let it be an image of your | own perception of littleness. Do not let it reflect your will to |
| Tx:8.90 | What seems to be the fear of God is really only the fear of your | own reality. |
| Tx:8.92 | effort, within the limits you impose on Him, to re-establish your | own will in your consciousness. |
| Tx:9.24 | real has happened to the unhealed healer, and he learns from his | own teaching. |
| Tx:9.40 | are and wholly mistrustful of everything it perceives, because its | own perceptions are so shifting. The ego is therefore capable of |
| Tx:9.43 | You cannot evaluate an insane belief system from within it. Its | own range precludes this. You can only go beyond it, look back from a |
| Tx:9.50 | the difference between miracle impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its | own. We once said that the ego is aware of threat, but does not make |
| Tx:9.50 | between two entirely different kinds of threat to its existence. Its | own profound sense of vulnerability renders it incapable of judgment |
| Tx:9.58 | He would have you replace the ego's belief in littleness with His | own exalted answer to the question of your being, so that you can |
| Tx:9.65 | awakening to reality. Is it your will to do so? You know from your | own experience that what you see in dreams you think is real as long |
| Tx:9.69 | are part of Him when you are willing to remember Him and know your | own reality again. Let nothing in this world delay your remembering |
| Tx:9.72 | attack is self-attack. It cannot be anything else. Arising from your | own decision not to be what you are, it is an attack on your |
| Tx:9.83 | and because of this fear, you have been willing to give up your | own perfect helpfulness and your own perfect Help. |
| Tx:9.83 | have been willing to give up your own perfect helpfulness and your | own perfect Help. |
| Tx:9.93 | what it means. They do not realize that to deny God is to deny their | own identity, and in this sense the wages of sin is death. The sense |
| Tx:9.95 | the denial of health, because health is in direct opposition to its | own survival. But consider what this means to you. Unless you are |
| Tx:9.101 | kind. If you deny Him, you bring sin, pain, and suffering into your | own mind because of the power He gave it. Your mind is capable of |
| Tx:10.2 | is nothing more than a delusional system in which you made your | own father. Make no mistake about this. It sounds insane when it is |
| Tx:10.12 | God's Will is that you are His Son. By denying this, you denied your | own will and therefore do not know what it is. The reason you must |
| Tx:10.12 | appears to be coercive, it is only because you do not recognize your | own will. |
| Tx:10.15 | you who learn that to hear the Will of your Father is to know your | own. For it is your will to be like Him, Whose Will it is that it be |
| Tx:10.17 | thought which you accept, either from your brother or in your | own mind, teaches you that you are God's Son. In every hurtful |
| Tx:10.19 | a sign that he wants to make whole. And this willingness opens his | own ears to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. |
| Tx:10.19 | for beside your small willingness to make whole, He will lay His | own complete will and make yours whole. What can the Son of God not |
| Tx:10.24 | for he knows not what he does, believing his will is not his | own. The Kingdom is his, and yet he wanders homelessly. At home in |
| Tx:10.31 | its Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you hate part of your | own Soul, all your understanding is lost because you are looking on |
| Tx:10.31 | what He created is part of Him, you are denying Him His place in His | own altar. |
| Tx:10.33 | Soul lies in its limitlessness. Limit the peace you share, and your | own Soul must be unknown to you. Every altar to God is part of your |
| Tx:10.33 | You would not do so if you realized that you can only darken your | own mind. As you bring him back, so will your mind return. That is |
| Tx:10.43 | sufficient unto itself, and independent of any power except its | own. This is why it is the symbol of separation. |
| Tx:10.55 | it is this universe which, in turn, becomes its demonstration of its | own reality. |
| Tx:10.58 | of Christ to you, you spoke not of Christ to him. You hear but your | own voice, and if Christ speaks through you, you will hear Him. |
| Tx:10.61 | which are unworthy of God's Son. For until Christ comes into His | own, the Son of God will see himself as fatherless. |
| Tx:10.63 | for obedience implies submission. He would only have you learn your | own will and follow it, not in the spirit of sacrifice and |
| Tx:10.64 | God is gracious to His Son, accepting him without question as His | own. Who, then, is your own? The Father has given you all that is |
| Tx:10.64 | Son, accepting him without question as His own. Who, then, is your | own? The Father has given you all that is His, and He Himself is |
| Tx:10.66 | nailed yourself to a cross and placed a crown of thorns upon your | own head. Yet you cannot crucify God's Son, for the Will of God |
| Tx:10.66 | for the Will of God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from his | own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom God has given |
| Tx:10.67 | You will awaken to your | own call, for the Call to awake is within you. If I live in you, you |
| Tx:10.76 | of yourself, for you who have learned amiss should not be your | own teachers. |
| Tx:10.86 | and you cannot perceive part of you as sick and achieve your | own goal. Brother, we heal together as we live together and love |
| Tx:10.88 | into a dream, he is no longer afraid and laughs happily at his | own fear. You, my children, are afraid of your brothers and of your |
| Tx:11.1 | to make it real because it is not true. But truth is real in its | own right, and to believe in truth, you do not have to do anything. |
| Tx:11.2 | very complicated, very obscuring, and never without the risk of your | own ego-involvement. The whole process represents a clear-cut attempt |
| Tx:11.2 | The whole process represents a clear-cut attempt to demonstrate your | own ability to understand what you perceive. This is shown by the |
| Tx:11.4 | Perhaps the danger of this to your | own mind is not yet fully apparent to you, but this by no means |
| Tx:11.4 | recognizing all calls for help as exactly what they are except your | own perceived need to attack. It is only this that makes you willing |
| Tx:11.5 | a brother's errors are “uncovered” and he is then attacked for his | own good. What can this be but projection? For his errors lay in the |
| Tx:11.7 | But hear his call for the help of God, and you will recognize your | own need for the Father. |
| Tx:11.11 | and denial depends on the real belief in what is denied for its | own existence. |
| Tx:11.17 | yourselves. You are hiding your nightmares in the darkness of your | own certainty and refusing to open your eyes and look at them. |
| Tx:11.29 | he is fully aware of anxiety, he does not perceive its source as his | own ego identification, and he always tries to handle it by making |
| Tx:11.34 | If you will recognize that all attack which you perceive is in your | own mind and nowhere else, you will at last have placed its source, |
| Tx:11.44 | That is why the recognition of your | own invulnerability is so important in the restoration of your |
| Tx:11.46 | yours is divided and therefore not real. You could not trust your | own love when you have attacked it. You cannot learn of perfect love |
| Tx:11.46 | you wanted to retain the characteristics of creation with your | own content. Yet creation is not of you, and poor learners need |
| Tx:11.51 | the way to achieve a goal is not to attain it? Resign now as your | own teachers. This resignation will not lead to depression. It is |
| Tx:11.53 | ego is trying 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 |
| Tx:12.13 | You associate love with weakness and hatred with strength, and your | own real power seems to you as your real weakness. For you could not |
| Tx:12.16 | delusions and not keep them hidden is that they do not rest on their | own foundation. In concealment they appear to do so, and thus they |
| Tx:12.20 | but still more did he fear his real Father, having attacked his | own glorious equality with Him. |
| Tx:12.27 | as they are. And you will receive messages from them out of your | own past because, by making it real in the present, you are |
| Tx:12.29 | encounter if you are merely perceiving it as a meeting with your | own past? For you are meeting no one, and the sharing of salvation, |
| Tx:12.31 | for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its | own. The continuity of past and future under its direction is the |
| Tx:12.31 | in time, and it closes over the present so that no gap in its | own continuity can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in |
| Tx:12.35 | each other because they saw in them a shadow figure in their | own private world. And thus it is that you must attack yourself |
| Tx:12.35 | for what you attack is not in others. Its only reality is in your | own mind, and by attacking others, you are literally attacking what |
| Tx:12.37 | apart, where when it comes it is not recognized. If you see your | own hatred as your brother, you are not seeing him. Everyone draws |
| Tx:12.38 | your madness, you overlook reality completely, and you see only your | own split mind everywhere you look. God calls you and you do not |
| Tx:12.38 | God calls you and you do not hear, for you are preoccupied with your | own voice. And the vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you |
| Tx:12.41 | insanity, believing you can make a private world and rule your | own perceptions. Yet for this, light must be excluded. Dreams |
| Tx:12.45 | truly is to be aware of all reality through the awareness of your | own. But for this no illusions can rise to meet your sight, for all |
| Tx:12.48 | continuity by breaking it into past, present, and future for your | own purposes. You would anticipate the future on the basis of your |
| Tx:12.53 | witness to your healing, for in their wholeness you will see your | own. And as your hymns of praise and gladness rise to your Creator, |
| Tx:12.54 | it. Everyone you see in light brings your light closer to your | own awareness. Love always leads to love. The sick who ask for love |
| Tx:12.57 | from Him. So he has never ceased to be his Father's witness and his | own. Although he slept, Christ's vision did not leave him. And so it |
| Tx:12.64 | of the other world about him. Yet while he still lays value on his | own, he will deny the vision of the other world, maintaining that he |
| Tx:12.68 | things for salvation, for possession is its law. Possession for its | own sake is the ego's fundamental creed, a basic cornerstone in the |
| Tx:13.10 | gates of Heaven, God will open them. For never would He leave His | own beloved Son outside them and beyond Himself. |
| Tx:13.13 | world can give you only what you gave it, for being nothing but your | own projection, it has no meaning apart from what you found in it and |
| Tx:13.14 | guilt that binds him to it. And in his freedom would have been your | own. |
| Tx:13.16 | that you offer the Son of God lies the conviction of your | own guilt. If you would have the Holy Spirit make you free of it, |
| Tx:13.16 | there, for it is there until it is undone. Guilt is always in your | own mind, which has condemned itself. Project it not, for while you |
| Tx:13.21 | them, the Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting for your | own ends what you should have given to Him, He cannot use them unto |
| Tx:13.21 | your release. No one who would unite in any way with anyone for his | own salvation will find it in that strange relationship. It is not |
| Tx:13.22 | seek to lay your guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his | own, you will feel guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and peace |
| Tx:13.22 | is to perceive the source of guilt outside themselves, beyond their | own control. |
| Tx:13.34 | Praise be unto you who make the Father one with His | own Son. Alone we are all lowly, but together we shine with |
| Tx:13.40 | makes the need for any differences disappear. Truth comes of its | own will unto its own. When you have learned that you belong to |
| Tx:13.40 | for any differences disappear. Truth comes of its own will unto its | own. When you have learned that you belong to truth, it will flow |
| Tx:13.76 | the plan which God has set for his Atonement, relinquishing his | own. You know not of salvation, for you do not understand it. Make no |
| Tx:13.92 | as if you were being carried along a quiet path in summer. Only your | own volition seems to make deciding hard. The Holy Spirit will not |
| Tx:14.8 | of guilt within which the Son of God has hidden himself from his | own sight. We are all joined in the Atonement here, and nothing else |
| Tx:14.10 | Teachers of innocence, each in his | own way, have joined together, taking their part in the unified |
| Tx:14.11 | Join your | own efforts to the power that cannot fail and must result in peace. |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like everything you made, must be gently turned to your | own good, translated by the Holy Spirit from means of |
| Tx:14.37 | Your little gifts will vanish on the altar where He has placed His | Own. |
| Tx:14.46 | between God and His creations, or between His Children and their | own, the knowledge of creation must continue forever. The reflections |
| Tx:14.47 | on him, and he can no longer be satisfied with anything but his | own reality. You on earth have no conception of limitlessness, for |
| Tx:14.51 | judgment can be asked to do that which requires no judgment of your | own. The answer is very simple. The power of God, and not of you, |
| Tx:14.65 | And so I do not know how to respond to it. And I will not use my | own past learning as the light to guide me now. |
| Tx:15.2 | 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 His friend in teaching. It |
| Tx:15.5 | itself cannot be separated, and because it cannot conceive of its | own death, it will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. Such is |
| Tx:15.18 | your brothers and refuse to support either their weakness or your | own. |
| Tx:15.20 | brilliance, which will literally blind you to this world by its | own vision, you cannot supply. And here it is, all in this instant, |
| Tx:15.36 | you bring it nearer. Think not that you can find salvation in your | own way and have it. Give over every plan that you have made for your |
| Tx:15.37 | is apart from Him diminishes the value of His Will for you in your | own minds. And yet it is your mind that is the host to Him. |
| Tx:15.46 | device, for it is in the past that you learned to define your | own needs and acquired methods for meeting them on your own terms. We |
| Tx:15.46 | define your own needs and acquired methods for meeting them on your | own terms. We said before that to limit love to part of the Sonship |
| Tx:15.51 | parts of another aspect. Thus does it assemble reality to its | own capricious liking, offering for your seeking a picture whose |
| Tx:15.75 | be afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your | own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot teach through fear. |
| Tx:15.75 | lose them, and if your bodies are together your minds remain your | own. The union of bodies thus becomes the way in which you would keep |
| Tx:15.76 | loneliness is but the working of the ego's plan to establish its | own autonomy. As long as you believe that to be with a body is |
| Tx:16.3 | the relationship. You will neither to hurt it nor to heal it in your | own way. You do not know what healing is. All you have learned of |
| Tx:16.24 | it? It must be this that is really outside yourself, not by your | own projection, but in truth. And it is this that you have taken in |
| Tx:16.27 | learning commensurate with teaching. You have chosen this by your | own willingness to teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy |
| Tx:16.37 | and welcome them. For it is they you seek. You seek but for your | own completion, and it is they who render you complete. The special |
| Tx:16.39 | accept into your mind by judging it to be attainable removes your | own sense of completion and thus denies the wholeness of your Father. |
| Tx:16.72 | believes that you so justly merit. Yet without your alliance in your | own destruction, the ego could not hold you to the past. |
| Tx:17.1 | Son of God lies only in illusions, and all his “sins” are but his | own imagining. His reality is forever sinless. He need not be |
| Tx:17.9 | and no one and nothing remains still bound by them, and by your | own forgiveness, you are free to see. Yet what you see is only what |
| Tx:17.14 | you brought them, you will hear them. And you who kept them by your | own selection do not understand how they came into your minds and |
| Tx:17.16 | That bodies are central to all unholy relationships is evident. Your | own experience has taught you this. But what you do not realize are |
| Tx:17.36 | truth itself needs no defense, but you do need defense against your | own acceptance of the gift of death. When you who are truth accept an |
| Tx:17.36 | the joy of His eternal Spirit are marshaled to defend you from your | own attack. For you attack Them, being part of Them, and They must |
| Tx:17.45 | quite clear. For the relationship as it is, is out of line with its | own goal and clearly unsuited to the purpose which has been accepted |
| Tx:17.72 | the faith that you give to each other, or you are faithless to your | own relationship. Your faith will call the others to share your |
| Tx:18.37 | but only that I do not interfere with His plan to restore to me my | own awareness of my readiness, which is eternal. I need add nothing |
| Tx:18.37 | His plan. But to receive it, I must be willing not to substitute my | own in place of it. |
| Tx:18.44 | not even realize you have accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose as your | own, and you would merely bring unholy means to its accomplishment. |
| Tx:18.68 | Here is the ultimate release which everyone will one day find in his | own way, at his own time. We do not need this time. Time has been |
| Tx:18.68 | release which everyone will one day find in his own way, at his | own time. We do not need this time. Time has been saved for you |
| Tx:19.9 | this strange concealment has hurt your mind and how confused your | own identification has become because of it! You do not see how great |
| Tx:19.25 | you will always want it. And only an avenger with a mind unlike your | own could stamp it out through fear. |
| Tx:19.82 | can be corrected. For God has answered this insane idea with His | own, an Answer which left Him not and therefore brings the Creator to |
| Tx:19.105 | the heavy burden of sin you laid upon him and he accepted as his | own, and toss it lightly and with happy laughter away from him. Press |
| Tx:19.110 | you to see this purpose in your holy Friend and recognize it is your | own. |
| Tx:20.3 | him there. Help him to go in peace beyond it, with the light of his | own innocence lighting his way to his redemption and release. Hold |
| Tx:20.5 | thorns, not recognizing it for what it is and trying to justify your | own interpretation of its value by his acceptance. Yet still the gift |
| Tx:20.7 | that they may see what he has placed upon it and take it for their | own. Here is the value that you lay upon your brother and on |
| Tx:20.9 | another sight. Those who accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as their | own share also His vision. And what enables Him to see His purpose |
| Tx:20.29 | It lies in him to overlook all your mistakes, and therein lies his | own salvation. And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in |
| Tx:20.30 | as you are, and in the freedom that you see in him, you see your | own. For this you share. What God has given follows His laws and His |
| Tx:20.43 | it, and through His understanding recognize it and love it as your | own. |
| Tx:20.54 | on it with the gentle smile and tender blessing it offers to its | own. Here the unholy instant is exchanged in gladness for the holy |
| Tx:20.68 | Do you not want to know your | own Identity? Would you not happily exchange your doubts for |
| Tx:21.20 | the Will of his Creator, Whose Will cannot be separate from his | own. |
| Tx:21.25 | thinks it causes. Long ago we spoke of your desire to create your | own Creator and be father and not son to Him. This is the same |
| Tx:21.44 | could it have been willing to see the Holy Spirit's purpose as its | own? |
| Tx:21.47 | And earth can hold no longer what has been given Heaven as its | own. |
| Tx:21.50 | will believe that you are helpless prey to forces far beyond your | own control and far more powerful than you. And you will think the |
| Tx:21.51 | It recognizes that miracles do not affect another's mind, only Its | own. [They always change your mind.] There is no other. |
| Tx:21.55 | Reason is a means which serves the Holy Spirit's purpose in its | own right. It is not reinterpreted and redirected from the goal of |
| Tx:21.69 | God is not mocked; no more His Son can be imprisoned save by his | own desire. And it is by his own desire that he is freed. Such is his |
| Tx:21.69 | His Son can be imprisoned save by his own desire. And it is by his | own desire that he is freed. Such is his strength and not his |
| Tx:21.69 | he is freed. Such is his strength and not his weakness. He is at his | own mercy. And where he chooses to be merciful, there is he free. But |
| Tx:21.87 | sees it so. Nothing has power to confound its constancy because its | own desire cannot be shaken. It comes as surely unto those who see |
| Tx:22.3 | Therefore, he looks on nothing he would take. He denies not his | own reality, because it is the truth. Just under Heaven does he |
| Tx:22.8 | secrets. What could your secrets be except another will that is your | own, apart from His? Reason would tell you that this is no secret |
| Tx:22.25 | and make Him different. And all the misery you made has been your | own. Are you not glad to learn it is not true? Is it not welcome news |
| Tx:22.32 | It would preserve all errors and make them sins. For here is its | own stability, its heavy anchor in the shifting world it made—the |
| Tx:22.32 | are bound to bodies and believe the body's freedom is their | own. |
| Tx:22.51 | to its predominance, increasing its importance by diminishing its | own. Means serve the end, and as the end is reached, the value of the |
| Tx:22.54 | lights the sky you see, is chosen of your Father as a means for His | own plan. Be thankful that it serves yours not at all. Nothing |
| Tx:23.22 | being the belief the Son of God can make mistakes for which his | own destruction becomes inevitable. |
| Tx:23.30 | relationships have but the purpose of seizing it and making it your | own. |
| Tx:23.49 | body. He gave the function to create unto His Son because it is His | own. It is not sinful to believe the function of the Son is murder, |
| Tx:23.55 | the battleground is of the body—something it seems to offer or to | own. No one who knows that he has everything could seek for |
| Tx:24.17 | instantly to mind. And with this memory, the Son remembers his | own creations, as like to him as he is to his Father. And all the |
| Tx:24.35 | specialness? And it is this that makes it frail and helpless in its | own defense. It was conceived to make you frail and helpless. The |
| Tx:24.46 | held in you by that same hand that holds your brother's in your | own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in Himself. He gives them |
| Tx:24.47 | holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you to offer you your | own completion. What is His is yours because in your completion is |
| Tx:24.47 | completion. What is His is yours because in your completion is His | Own. He Who willed not to be without His Son could never will that |
| Tx:24.49 | is knowable and will be known to you. For He could never leave His | own creation. And the sign that this is so lies in your brother, |
| Tx:24.51 | as yours forever. And no thought within His Mind is absent from your | own. It is His Will you share His love for you and look upon yourself |
| Tx:24.65 | this purpose in your brother's, such is your condemnation of your | own. Weave, rather then, a frame of holiness around him that the |
| Tx:24.69 | teach what cannot easily be learned. Its scope does not exceed your | own, except to say that what is yours will come to you when you are |
| Tx:24.70 | ears with which you listened to the sounds it makes. It proves its | own reality to you. |
| Tx:24.71 | no escape within its sight. Its course is sure when seen through its | own eyes. It grows and withers, flourishes and dies. And you cannot |
| Tx:24.71 | acts, judging it evil. Yet your specialness whispers, “Here is my | own beloved son, in whom I am well pleased.” Thus does the “son” |
| Tx:24.72 | and no encounter. One do you see outside yourself, your | own beloved son. The other rests within, His Father's Son, within |
| Tx:24.72 | purpose. And what you see will serve that purpose well and prove its | own reality to you. |
| Tx:25.29 | has much to offer to your peace and many chances to extend your | own forgiveness. Such its purpose is to those who want to see peace |
| Tx:25.33 | of God creates to bring him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his | own creation that his joy might be increased and God's along with his. |
| Tx:25.36 | it and were mistaken for a little while. How better could your | own mistakes be brought to truth than by your willingness to bring |
| Tx:25.39 | in him His Call to you and answer by returning unto God what is His | own. |
| Tx:25.41 | no sacrifice that he be saved, for by his freedom will you gain your | own. To let his function be fulfilled is but the means to let yours |
| Tx:25.42 | to let His Will be done. In each of you, you see the picture of your | own belief in what the Will of God must be for you. In your |
| Tx:25.59 | joy. Accept the function that has been assigned to you in God's | Own plan to show His Sons that hell and Heaven are different, not the |
| Tx:25.68 | They must believe He shares their | own confusion and cannot avoid the vengeance that their own belief in |
| Tx:25.68 | shares their own confusion and cannot avoid the vengeance that their | own belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:25.68 | dead with lightning bolts torn from the “fires” of Heaven by God's | own angry hand. They do believe that Heaven is hell and are afraid of |
| Tx:25.72 | In God's | own justice does He recognize all you deserve but understands as well |
| Tx:25.76 | is not impartial and cannot fairly see another's rights because his | own have been obscured to him. |
| Tx:25.77 | deceives, but it cannot replace God's justice with a version of its | own. For only love is just and can perceive what justice must accord |
| Tx:26.2 | to keep itself complete. For if they joined, each one would lose its | own identity, and by their separation are their selves maintained. |
| Tx:26.3 | rest must lose this little part, remaining incomplete to keep its | own identity intact. In this perception of yourself, the body's loss |
| Tx:26.9 | justice? Could your function be a task apart and separate from His | Own? |
| Tx:26.16 | Think then how great your | own release will be when you are willing to receive correction for |
| Tx:26.29 | which was raised within the tiny spot that sin proclaimed to be its | own. And what was tiny then has soared into a magnitude of song in |
| Tx:26.37 | fact in what is there to hear where he is now? And how much can his | own delusions about time and place affect a change in where he really |
| Tx:26.38 | your ever-loving Father has ensured must come to you. And from your | own unfairness to yourself has He protected you. You cannot lose your |
| Tx:26.52 | grounds for hell. If this were so, would Heaven be opposed by its | own opposite, as real as it. Then would God's Will be split in two |
| Tx:26.58 | of God ask not too much but far too little. He would sacrifice his | own identity with everything to find a little treasure of his own. |
| Tx:26.58 | his own identity with everything to find a little treasure of his | own. And this he cannot do without a sense of isolation, loss, and |
| Tx:26.66 | belongs to each of them. No wishes lie between a brother and his | own. To get from one is to deprive them all. And yet to bless but one |
| Tx:26.77 | to your call! And think how holy he must be when in him sleeps your | own salvation with his freedom joined! However much you wish he be |
| Tx:26.80 | again, and Heaven's joy has been increased because what is its | own has been restored to it. The bloodied earth is cleansed, and the |
| Tx:26.81 | has been withheld so long. For They have come to gather in Their | Own. What has been locked is opened; what was held apart from light |
| Tx:26.86 | stands between Their shining innocence and your awareness it is your | own and equally belongs to every living thing along with you. God |
| Tx:26.88 | your attack on him attempts to get? Is it not retribution for your | own attack upon the Son of God you seek? Is it not safer to believe |
| Tx:26.88 | his innocence that someone else can take it from him, making it his | own. |
| Tx:27.2 | your release from sacrifice is his made manifest and shown to be his | own. But every pain you suffer do you see as proof that he is guilty |
| Tx:27.2 | the death you made for him. But in his innocence, you find your | own. |
| Tx:27.15 | eyes. And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it from his | own. Forgiveness cannot be for one and not the other. Who forgives is |
| Tx:27.18 | ancient calling of the Father to His Son, and of the Son unto his | own, will yet be the last trumpet that the world will ever hear. |
| Tx:27.21 | whom their brother's sacrifice and pain are seen to represent their | own serenity. Their helplessness and weakness represent the grounds |
| Tx:27.24 | you also know the Holy Spirit's mind and yours are one. And so your | own Identity is found. Yet must He work with what is given Him, and |
| Tx:27.25 | become the central target for correction, lest your errors and his | own be seen as one. Yours are mistakes, but his are sins and not the |
| Tx:27.26 | In this interpretation of correction, your | own mistakes you will not even see. The focus of correction has been |
| Tx:27.27 | your Self from being made aware of any function other than Its | own. And thus is healing given both of you. |
| Tx:27.28 | as Its only one. Here is the function given It conceived to be Its | own and not apart from that Its Giver keeps because it has been |
| Tx:27.35 | A Power wholly limitless has come, not to destroy, but to receive Its | own. There is no choice of function anywhere. The choice you fear to |
| Tx:27.51 | and will be brought to problems that you thought were not your | own. And it will also be apparent that your many different problems |
| Tx:27.58 | what they represent has no effects. And this it proves because its | own effects have come to take their place. It matters not the name by |
| Tx:27.62 | he knows not 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 |
| Tx:27.65 | Vengeance must have a focus. Otherwise is the avenger's knife in his | own hand and pointed to himself. And he must see it in another's hand |
| Tx:27.67 | The part you play in salvaging the world from condemnation is your | own escape. Forget not that the witness to the world of evil cannot |
| Tx:27.71 | They are one. The dreaming of the world is but a part of your | own dream you gave away and saw as if it were its start and ending |
| Tx:27.78 | protect it, and collect more senseless things that it can call its | own. It looks about for special bodies which can share its dream. |
| Tx:27.83 | your thoughts instead of you. It brings its vengeance, not your | own. It keeps you narrowly confined within a body, which it punishes |
| Tx:28.10 | You who have sought to lay a judgment on your | own Creator cannot understand it is not He Who laid a judgment on His |
| Tx:28.10 | quietness, see in the miracle a lesson in allowing Cause to have Its | own effects and doing nothing that would interfere. |
| Tx:28.11 | an instant's stillness when the memory of God returns to them. Their | own remembering is quiet now, and what has come to take its place |
| Tx:28.13 | God arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the memory away. Its | own remembering has gone. There is no past to keep its fearful image |
| Tx:28.13 | in gentle sounds of love the Son of God remembers from before his | own remembering came in between the present and the past to shut them |
| Tx:28.20 | sufferer. These are the happy dreams the miracle exchanges for your | own. It does not ask you make another—only that you see you made |
| Tx:28.22 | to show him that his wishes have been done. Thus does he fear his | own attack but sees it at another's hands. As victim, he is suffering |
| Tx:28.22 | suffering from its effects but not their cause. He authored not his | own attack, and he is innocent of what he caused. The miracle does |
| Tx:28.23 | abuse because the motives he has given it have they adopted as their | own. And hate it for the vengeance it would offer them. It is their |
| Tx:28.30 | your brother to be sick, for if he is, have you abandoned him to his | own dream by sharing it with him. He has not seen the cause of |
| Tx:28.41 | you become a passive figure in his dream instead of dreamer of your | own. Identity in dreams is meaningless because the dreamer and the |
| Tx:28.42 | His dreams are yours because you let them be. But if you took your | own away would he be free of them and of his own as well. Your dreams |
| Tx:28.42 | But if you took your own away would he be free of them and of his | own as well. Your dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the |
| Tx:28.49 | the dream you share. And fearing it, you will not want to know your | own Identity because you think that it is fearful. And you will deny |
| Tx:28.56 | its frailty and littleness. And you despise its acts but not your | own. It sees and acts for you. It hears your voice. And it is frail |
| Tx:28.57 | body represents the gap between the little bit of mind you call your | own and all the rest of what is really yours. You hate it, yet you |
| Tx:28.63 | this purpose it cannot be sick. It will not join a purpose not your | own, and you have chosen that it not be sick. All miracles are based |
| Tx:29.6 | and everyone you meet and see in them a purpose not your | own. |
| Tx:29.13 | and asks you now that you will look on them and take them for your | own. He needs your help in giving them to all who walk apart |
| Tx:29.34 | his Father shines forever and to whom is all creation given as his | own. Because he has it is it given you, and where it lies in him, |
| Tx:29.40 | to die, then die it must unless it does not take this purpose as its | own. Change is the only thing that can be made a blessing here, where |
| Tx:29.49 | pursue them vainly in the dream because you want their power as your | own. |
| Tx:29.64 | in which their toys are real, nor recognize their wishes are their | own. |
| Tx:29.65 | and gives them to the toys instead. And their reality becomes his | own because they seem to save him from his thoughts. Yet do they keep |
| Tx:30.33 | you but your will; He speaks for you. In His divinity is but your | own. And all He knows is but your knowledge, saved for you that you |
| Tx:30.37 | you share. God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for by your | own salvation it is healed. And no one walks upon the earth but must |
| Tx:30.48 | keep hidden what you are, not from the Mind of God, but from your | own. The star shines still; the sky has never changed. But you, the |
| Tx:30.52 | looked upon as children's toys without a single meaning of their | own. See one in them, and you will see them all. See none in them, |
| Tx:30.61 | The real world still falls short of this, for this is God's | own purpose—only His, and yet completely shared and perfectly |
| Tx:30.69 | their awareness. Nor can they forget for long that it is but their | own. |
| Tx:30.79 | you, Father, for your perfect Son, and in his glory will I see my | own. |
| Tx:30.94 | he is healed are you made free of guilt, for his appearance is your | own to you. |
| Tx:31.3 | to learn is strong enough to teach you that your will is not your | own, your thoughts do not belong to you, and even you are someone |
| Tx:31.9 | as the ancient call to life and understood that it is but your | own. The Christ in you remembers God with all the certainty with |
| Tx:31.12 | what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not our | own ideas of what the world is for. We do not know. Let every image |
| Tx:31.17 | answer is salvation found. The voice you hear in him is but your | own. What does he ask you for? And listen well! For he is asking what |
| Tx:31.20 | his hand in anger but in love, for in his progress do you count your | own. And we go separately along the way unless you keep him safely by |
| Tx:31.26 | realize. You never hate your brother for his sins, but only for your | own. Whatever form his sins appear to take, it but obscures the fact |
| Tx:31.28 | purpose must be in the body, not the mind. The body must act on its | own and motivate itself. If you are sin, you lock the mind within the |
| Tx:31.42 | how could you be made to travel on it, walking there without your | own reality at one with you? Forgive yourself your madness and forget |
| Tx:31.49 | is a concept but a thought to which its maker gives a meaning of his | own? Concepts maintain the world. But they cannot be used to |
| Tx:31.55 | share his guilt because you chose it for him in the image of your | own. While only he was treacherous before, now must you be condemned |
| Tx:31.57 | more than this. And in your suffering of any kind, you see your | own concealed desire to kill. |
| Tx:31.58 | self as learning goes along. Each one will show the changes in your | own relationships as your perception of yourself is changed. There |
| Tx:31.62 | here have you established what you are, as flesh or Spirit in your | own belief. If you choose flesh, you never will escape the body as |
| Tx:31.62 | belief. If you choose flesh, you never will escape the body as your | own reality, for you have chosen that you want it so. But choose the |
| Tx:31.78 | vision—that he see his innocence in all he looks upon and sees his | own salvation everywhere. He holds no concept of himself between his |
| Tx:31.82 | looks on them with seeing eyes and offers them forgiveness with his | own. Can you to whom God says, “Release My Son!” be tempted not to |
| Tx:31.88 | like Him are merely those who chose His strength instead of their | own weakness, seen apart from Him. They will redeem the world, for |
| Tx:31.92 | have him be, remembering that every choice you make establishes your | own identity as you will see it and believe it is. |
| Tx:31.93 | to hear my voice and listen to my words. I ask for nothing but your | own release. There is no place for hell within a world whose |
| Tx:31.96 | toward the light that shines beyond in perfect constancy. Give me my | own, for they belong to You. And can You fail in what is but Your |
| W1:13.2 | provides. The ego rushes in frantically to establish its | own “ideas” there, fearful that the void may otherwise be used to |
| W1:13.2 | fearful that the void may otherwise be used to demonstrate its | own unreality. And on this alone it is correct. |
| W1:14.1 | it. The world you see has nothing to do with reality. It is of your | own making, and it does not exist. |
| W1:14.7 | It does not matter. What God did not create can only be in your | own mind apart from His. Therefore, it has no meaning. In recognition |
| W1:16.1 | They are merely true or false. Those which are true create their | own likeness. Those which are false make theirs. |
| W1:22.1 | anger onto the world, he sees vengeance about to strike at him. His | own attack is thus perceived as self defense. This becomes an |
| W1:23.3 | of “external reality” is a pictorial representation of your | own attack thoughts. One can well ask if this can be called seeing. |
| W1:24.1 | is wrong. It is inevitable, then, that you will not serve your | own best interests. Yet they are your only goal in any situation |
| W1:24.2 | If you realized that you do not perceive your | own best interests, you could be taught what they are. But in the |
| W1:24.10 | I do not perceive my | own best interests in this situation, |
| W1:25.1 | is for. Therefore it is meaningless to you. Everything is for your | own best interests. That is what it is for; that is its purpose; that |
| W1:25.2 | in terms of ego goals. These goals have nothing to do with your | own best interests, because the ego is not you. This false |
| W1:26.1 | it now. You must therefore learn how it can be used for your | own best interests rather than against them. |
| W1:26.2 | invulnerable. Attack thoughts therefore make you vulnerable in your | own mind, which is where the attack thoughts are. Attack thoughts and |
| W1:26.3 | that you are vulnerable, their effect is to weaken you in your | own eyes. Thus they have attacked your perception of yourself. And |
| W1:26.4 | that vulnerability or invulnerability is the result of your | own thoughts. Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing |
| W1:28.5 | gain vision from just that table if you could withdraw all your | own ideas from it and look upon it with a completely open mind. It |
| W1:28.6 | them to let their purpose be revealed to you instead of placing your | own judgment upon them. |
| W1:31.4 | you are making a declaration of independence in the name of your | own freedom. And in your freedom lies the freedom of the world. |
| W1:32.2 | exercises, try to introduce the thought that both are in your | own imagination. |
| W1:34.1 | Peace of mind is clearly an internal matter. It must begin with your | own thoughts and then extend outward. It is from your peace of mind |
| W1:37.1 | or why you are here. Your purpose is to see the world through your | own holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed together. No one |
| W1:37.9 | of your holiness immediately that you may learn to keep it in your | own awareness. |
| W1:38.6 | want to vary this procedure and add some relevant thoughts of your | own. You might like, for example, to include thoughts such as: |
| W1:39.3 | that your holiness is the salvation of the world. What about your | own salvation? You cannot give what you do not have. A savior must be |
| W1:39.3 | to the salvation of the world. As you apply the exercises to your | own world, the whole world stands to benefit. |
| W1:39.4 | end of hell. Your holiness is the salvation of the world and your | own. How could you to whom your holiness belongs be excluded from it? |
| W1:39.7 | suitable subjects for today's exercises. It is imperative for your | own salvation that you see them differently. And it is your blessing |
| W1:41.5 | the idle thoughts of the world. Try to enter very deeply into your | own mind, keeping it clear of any thoughts that might divert your |
| W1:42.1 | will see because it is the Will of God. It is His strength, not your | own, that gives you power. And it is His gift to you, rather than |
| W1:42.1 | that gives you power. And it is His gift to you, rather than your | own, which offers vision to you. |
| W1:42.7 | at the amount of course-related understanding some of your | own thoughts contain. Let them come without censoring unless you |
| W1:43.8 | let whatever relevant thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your | own personal way. Thoughts such as: |
| W1:43.9 | I see the world as blessed. The world can show me myself. I see my | own thoughts, which are like God's. |
| W1:45.6 | a fairly short period in thinking a few relevant thoughts of your | own, keeping the idea in mind as you do so. After you have added some |
| W1:45.6 | you do so. After you have added some four or five thoughts of your | own, repeat the idea again, and tell yourself gently: |
| W1:47.1 | If you are trusting your | own strength, you have every reason to be apprehensive, anxious, and |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will try to reach past your | own weakness to the Source of real strength. Four five-minute |
| W1:47.6 | Now try to slip past all concerns related to your | own sense of inadequacy. It is obvious that any situation that causes |
| W1:47.7 | The recognition of your | own frailty is a necessary step in the correction of your errors, but |
| W1:48.3 | The presence of fear is a sure sign that you are trusting in your | own strength. The awareness that there is nothing to fear shows that |
| W1:51.4 | see when I have judged it amiss? What I see is the projection of my | own errors of thought. I do not understand what I see because it is |
| W1:52.4 | [8] My mind is preoccupied with past thoughts. I see only my | own thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with the past. What, then, |
| W1:53.5 | it with me. Why should I continue to suffer from the effects of my | own insane thoughts when the perfection of creation is my home? Let |
| W1:54.3 | thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my | own state of mind. I know that my state of mind can change. And so I |
| W1:55.3 | a reflection of the Love of God and the love of His Son. It is my | own attack thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving |
| W1:55.5 | [24] I do not perceive my | own best interests. How could I recognize my own best interests when |
| W1:55.5 | I do not perceive my own best interests. How could I recognize my | own best interests when I do not know who I am? What I think are my |
| W1:55.5 | am willing to follow the Guide God has given me to find out what my | own best interests are, recognizing that I cannot perceive them by |
| W1:56.2 | for the world I see. But God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My | own real thoughts will teach me what it is. |
| W1:56.6 | [30] God is in everything I see because God is in my mind. In my | own mind, behind all my insane thoughts of separation and attack, is |
| W1:59.3 | [42] God is my strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my | own eyes to see today. Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful |
| W1:60.3 | [47] God is the Strength in which I trust. It is not my | own strength through which I forgive. It is through the strength of |
| W1:62.3 | Remember that in every attack you call upon your | own weakness, while every time you forgive you call upon the strength |
| W1:65.2 | to the door of peace, which you have closed upon yourself, in your | own hands. It gives you the answer to all the searching you have done |
| W1:65.11 | and the extent to which you really want salvation in spite of your | own foolish ideas to the contrary. |
| W1:67.4 | trying today to undo your definition of God and replace it with His | own. We are also trying to emphasize that you are part of His |
| W1:68.4 | is as sure that those who hold grievances will redefine God in their | own image as it is certain that God created them like Himself and |
| W1:70.1 | the source of guilt. You see neither guilt nor salvation as in your | own mind and nowhere else. When you realize that all guilt is solely |
| W1:70.3 | however, be clear to you why the recognition that guilt is in your | own mind entails the realization that salvation is there as well. |
| W1:70.7 | be a good time to lay aside for each of them and adhere to your | own decision as closely as possible. |
| W1:70.14 | yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing but your | own thoughts can hamper your progress. You are free from all external |
| W1:70.15 | of me can hold me back. Within me is the world's salvation and my | own. |
| W1:71.4 | The role assigned to your | own mind in this plan, then, is simply to determine what other than |
| W1:71.9 | in the first. And in the first is your full release from all your | own insane attempts and mad proposals to free yourself. They have led |
| W1:76.5 | up to hide what really suffers. It would not understand it is its | own enemy, that it attacks itself and wants to die. It is from this |
| W1:77.5 | granted. You have asked for the salvation of the world and for your | own. You have requested that you be given the means by which this is |
| W1:78.12 | the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation plan, and not our | own. Temptation falls away when we allow each one we meet to save us |
| W1:79.2 | Everyone in this world seems to have his | own special problems. Yet they are all the same and must be |
| W1:84.2 | recognize my reality today. I will worship no idols nor raise my | own self-concepts to replace my Self. I am in the likeness of my |
| W1:86.5 | hope of salvation from my awareness. I would no longer defeat my | own best interests in this insane way. I would accept God's plan for |
| W1:88.7 | at work in this. Let me allow God's laws to work in this and not my | own. |
| W1:91.13 | you in this practice period in which you share a purpose like Their | own. Theirs is the light in which you will see miracles because Their |
| W1:92.9 | and where they meet, your Self stands ready to embrace you as Its | own. Such is the meeting place we try today to find and rest in, for |
| W1:93.1 | struck with horror so intense that you would rush to death by your | own hand, living on after seeing this being impossible. |
| W1:93.11 | and sinfulness you have made to replace it. Let it come into its | own. Here you are. This is you. And light and joy and peace abide in |
| W1:95.20 | within his mind, the gentle rustling of the wings of peace. Your | own acknowledgment you are One Self, united with your Father, is a |

| W1:96.14 | These are your | own real thoughts you have denied, and let your mind go wandering in |
| W1:98.3 | they will do what it is given them to do. They do not doubt their | own ability because they know their function will be filled |
| W1:99.5 | exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of God and in your | own. It is apart from time in that its Source is timeless. Yet it |
| W1:99.6 | thought whose function is to save by giving you its function as your | own. |
| W1:104.2 | altar where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are our | own in truth. His are the gifts which we inherited before time was |
| W1:105.7 | them to yourself. And here you must return to claim them as your | own. Think of your “enemies” a little while, and tell each one as he |
| W1:107.8 | merely ask for what belongs to us, that we may recognize it as our | own. |
| W1:110.4 | split between your mind and other minds, and only unity within your | own. |
| W1:118.3 | [106] Let me be still and listen to the truth. Let mine | own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the mighty Voice of truth |
| W1:121.4 | upon the world with sightless eyes and shrieks as it beholds its | own projections rising to attack its miserable parody of life. It |
| W1:121.7 | Each unforgiving mind presents you with an opportunity to teach your | own how to forgive itself. Each one awaits release from hell through |
| W1:121.7 | hope, but you become its hope. And as its hope, do you become your | own. The unforgiving mind must learn through your forgiveness that it |
| W1:121.8 | you can learn today to take the key to happiness and use it on your | own behalf. We will devote ten minutes in the morning and at night |
| W1:122.7 | of any value to a mind which has received what God has given as its | own. God wills salvation be received today and that the intricacies |
| W1:124.9 | you. And you will see Christ's face upon it, in reflection of your | own. |
| W1:124.10 | Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will see your | own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an hour will hold out |
| W1:124.11 | light you see belongs to you, the loveliness you look on is your | own. Count this half hour as your gift to God, in certainty that His |
| W1:125.2 | mind and at his side to lead him surely to his Father's house by his | own will, forever free as God's. He is not led by force, but only |
| W1:125.5 | of his dreams, regardless of his madness that his will is not his | own. |
| W1:126.2 | them, and their appeals for help are not in any way related to your | own. You further think that they can sin without affecting your |
| W1:126.4 | suffer when it is withheld. The sin which you forgive is not your | own. Someone apart from you committed it. And if you then are |
| W1:127.4 | difference in what you 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 |
| W1:127.8 | mind wherever you give up a false belief, a dark illusion of your | own reality and what love means. He will shine through your idle |
| W1:130.8 | searching for the other world by asking for a strength beyond your | own, and recognize what it is you seek. You do not want illusions. |
| W1:131.8 | and its tragic joys. God made no contradictions. What denies its | own existence and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not make two |
| W1:131.13 | I seek I did not make alone. The thoughts I want to think are not my | own. |
| W1:132.9 | is true because the world does not exist. And if it is indeed your | own imagining, then you can loose it from all things you ever thought |
| W1:132.17 | it was. For I am real because the world is not, and I would know my | own reality. |
| W1:132.19 | send out these thoughts to bless the world. But you will sense your | own release, although you may not fully understand as yet that you |
| W1:132.21 | I loose the world from all I thought it was and choose my | own reality instead. |
| W1:133.8 | because when you deny his right to everything, you have denied your | own. You therefore will not recognize the things you really have, |
| W1:133.11 | appear as sins to him because he looks upon the tarnished as his | own—the rust a sign of deep unworthiness within himself. He who |
| W1:133.11 | He who would still preserve the ego's goals and serve them as his | own makes no mistakes according to the dictates of his guide. This |
| W1:133.14 | which come with nothing to find everything and claim it as their | own. We will attempt to reach this state today, with self-deception |
| W1:134.13 | thought which it reflects. It is as alien to the world as is your | own reality. And yet it joins your mind with the reality in you. |
| W1:135.1 | he thought he was attacked, that the attack is real, and that his | own defense can save himself? And herein lies the folly of defense— |
| W1:135.7 | what endowed the body with the right to serve you thus except your | own belief? It is your mind which gave the body all the functions |
| W1:135.12 | plans which it receives through listening to Wisdom that is not its | own. It waits until it has been taught what should be done and then |
| W1:135.14 | is not free to be a means of helping in a plan which far exceeds its | own protection and which needs its service for a little while. In |
| W1:135.15 | They are the means by which a frightened mind would undertake its | own protection at the cost of truth. This is not difficult to realize |
| W1:135.16 | It does not think that it will be provided for unless it makes its | own provisions. Time becomes a future emphasis to be controlled by |
| W1:135.21 | you become a light which Heaven gratefully acknowledges to be its | own. And it will lead you on in ways appointed for your happiness |
| W1:136.4 | that you must forget you made it, so it seems to be external to your | own intent—a happening beyond your state of mind, an outcome with a |
| W1:136.5 | in making your “reality” which makes defenses seem to be beyond your | own control. But what you have forgot can be remembered, given |
| W1:136.7 | whole again. And yet you have forgotten that they stand but for your | own decision of what should be real, to take the place of what is |
| W1:136.8 | you make, a plan you lay when for an instant truth arises in your | own deluded mind and all your world appears to totter and prepare to |
| W1:136.11 | Such is your planning for your | own defense. And you believe that Heaven quails before such mad |
| W1:137.3 | alone. In sickness must he be apart and separate. But healing is his | own decision to be one again and to accept his Self with all its |
| W1:137.10 | His life becomes your | own as you extend the little help He asks in freeing you from |
| W1:138.8 | anxiety so strong that it will not relinquish its ideas about its | own protection. It must be saved from salvation, threatened to be |
| W1:139.7 | is certain. It is set forever in the holy Mind of God and in your | own. It is so far beyond all doubt and question that to ask what it |
| W1:140.8 | It is not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to us as our | own thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need but seek |
| W1:R4.9 | Lord of Hosts be yours, as He Himself has willed it be. And as His | own completion joins with Him, so will He join with you who are |
| W1:151.5 | that it condemns. It is within itself it sees the guilt. It is its | own despair it sees in you. |
| W1:151.6 | its voice. The witnesses it sends to prove to you its evil is your | own are false and speak with certainty of what they do not know. Your |
| W1:151.6 | and let the Voice for God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your | own belief. |
| W1:152.1 | No one can suffer loss unless it be his | own decision. No one suffers pain except his choice elects this state |
| W1:152.1 | these are the outcomes that he wants. And no one dies without his | own consent. Nothing occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is |
| W1:152.4 | a vast array of choices which do not appear to be entirely your | own. And thus the truth appears to have some aspects that belie |
| W1:152.8 | accept what we have made as what it is. The power of decision is our | own. Decide but to accept your rightful place as co-creator of the |
| W1:152.10 | like to Himself in power and in love. The power of decision is our | own. And we accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize the |
| W1:152.11 | right to Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as our | own. Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and |
| W1:152.13 | The power of decision is my | own. This day I will accept myself as what my Father's Will created |
| W1:153.6 | maintains that choice is always made between His strength and your | own weakness seen apart from Him. Defenselessness can never be |
| W1:153.10 | ones who are among the chosen ones of God by His election and their | own as well? |
| W1:153.11 | has elected all, but few have come to realize His Will is but their | own. And while you fail to teach what you have learned, salvation |
| W1:153.11 | As they take it from your hands, so will you recognize it as your | own. |
| W1:153.14 | pitiful defense against a vengeance he cannot escape, were but his | own deluded fantasy. God's ministers have come to waken him from the |
| W1:154.2 | chooses and accepts your part for you. He does not work without your | own consent, but He is not deceived in what you are and listens only |
| W1:154.3 | It is through His ability to hear One Voice Which is His | own that you become aware at last there is One Voice in you. And that |
| W1:154.8 | understand he has received until he gives. For in the giving is his | own acceptance of what he received. |
| W1:154.9 | by you as well. For thus do you identify with Him and claim your | own. |
| W1:154.11 | may be at last delivered. And He needs our will united with His | own, that we may be the true receivers of the gifts He gives. |
| W1:154.12 | can this mean to you until you have identified with him and with his | own? |
| W1:155.1 | are quiet. And the ones who walk the world as you do recognize their | own. Yet those who have not yet perceived the way will recognize you |
| W1:155.2 | are seeking for a place where they can be illusions and avoid their | own reality. Yet when they find their own reality is even here, then |
| W1:155.2 | be illusions and avoid their own reality. Yet when they find their | own reality is even here, then they step back and let it lead the |
| W1:155.14 | how great His trust, how limitless His Love. In your name and His | own, which are the same, we practice gladly with this thought today: |
| W1:156.5 | for they recognize Who walks with you. The light you carry is their | own, and thus they see in you their holiness, saluting you as savior |
| W1:157.8 | start today with the experience this day holds out to you to be your | own. |
| W1:159.1 | has not received. To give a thing requires first you have it in your | own possession. Here the laws of Heaven and the world agree. But here |
| W1:160.4 | is unsuited to the home which God provided for His Son? Is fear His | own, created in His likeness? Is it fear that love completes and is |
| W1:160.6 | in and took no alien thought to be Itself. And It will call Its | own unto Itself, in recognition of what is Its own. |
| W1:160.6 | And It will call Its own unto Itself, in recognition of what is Its | own. |
| W1:160.7 | given him your rightful place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its | own as God is of His Son. He cannot be confused about creation. He is |
| W1:160.9 | what belongs to Him. His vision sees no strangers, but beholds His | own and joyously unites with them. They see Him as a stranger, for |
| W1:161.8 | as fear's symbol. And he will attack because what he beholds is his | own fear external to himself, poised to attack and howling to unite |
| W1:161.12 | your sins, whose sacred hands can take the nails which pierce your | own away and lift the crown of thorns which you have placed upon your |
| W1:161.15 | upon, for He will hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your | own. Behold him now whom you had seen as merely flesh and bone and |
| W1:162.3 | Holy indeed is he who makes these words his | own—arising with them in his mind, recalling them throughout the |
| W1:163.8 | and we renounce it now in every form for their salvation and our | own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must |
| W1:164.7 | we see will but increase our joy because its holiness reflects our | own. We stand forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world |
| W1:164.7 | forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world forgiven in our | own. |
| W1:164.8 | offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now our | own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all |
| W1:165.1 | What makes this world seem real except your | own denial of the truth which lies beyond? What but your thoughts of |
| W1:166.3 | may become, however urgently he may be called to claim them as his | own, is being pressed to treachery against himself. He must deny |
| W1:166.9 | you may not be your identity. Perhaps God's Word is truer than your | own. Perhaps His gifts to you are real. Perhaps He has not wholly |
| W1:166.12 | your will when you accept these gifts and recognize they are your | own. |
| W1:167.4 | qualities the source does not contain, becoming different from their | own origin, apart from it in kind as well as distance, time, and form. |
| W1:167.6 | that are and cannot give them attributes it lacks nor change its | own eternal, mindful state. It cannot make the physical. What seems |
| W1:167.12 | now and will forever be. A sleeping mind must waken as it sees its | own perfection mirroring the Lord of Life so perfectly it fades into |
| W1:168.5 | receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not our | own acceptance. We acknowledge our mistakes, but He to Whom all error |
| W1:168.6 | Him we pray today, returning but the words He gave to us through His | Own Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:170.3 | You make what you defend against, and by your | own defense against it, is it real and inescapable. Lay down your |
| W1:170.11 | with those of fear. Yet must the worshipers of fear perceive their | own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as now a part of love. |
| W1:R5.11 | I save the world. The Self from Which I call to you is but your | own. To Him we go together. Take your brother's hand, for this is not |
| W1:R5.12 | established it. You are His Son, completing His extension in your | own. We practice but an ancient truth we knew before illusion seemed |
| W1:171.3 | [152] The power of decision is my | own. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:181.1 | becoming blocks to your awareness of the Self that lies beyond your | own mistakes and past his seeming sins as well as yours. |
| W1:181.5 | narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon our | own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our “sins.” |
| W1:181.9 | of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes our | own as well. This will become the only thing we see reflected in the |
| W1:182.5 | It is this Child in you your Father knows as His | own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. He desires to go home |
| W1:183.1 | no holier than yours. To call upon His Name is but to call upon your | own. A father gives his son his name, and thus identifies the son |
| W1:183.7 | that we desire to see; of everything that we would call our | own. |
| W1:183.10 | you found. You can remember what the world forgot and offer it your | own remembering. You can accept today the part you play in its |
| W1:183.10 | You can accept today the part you play in its salvation and your | own as well, and both can be accomplished perfectly. |
| W1:183.11 | Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's Thoughts become his | own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and |
| W1:184.1 | you see. Each one becomes a separate entity, identified by its | own name. By this you carve it out of unity. By this you designate |
| W1:184.8 | call him, for his mind consents to take the name you give him as his | own. And thus his unity is twice denied, for you perceive him |
| W1:184.15 | different names is but a shadow we have tried to cast across Your | Own Reality. And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. All our |
| W1:185.10 | sincerity. For thus you reach to what they really want and join your | own intent with what they seek above all things, perhaps unknown to |
| W1:185.12 | you it was created, given you by its Creator and established as His | own eternal gift. How can you fail when you but ask for what He wills |
| W1:186.1 | Here is the thought of true humility which holds no function as your | own but that which has been given you. It offers your acceptance of a |
| W1:187.2 | for proof that when you give ideas away, you strengthen them in your | own mind. Perhaps the form in which the thought seems to appear is |
| W1:188.1 | you from your native home and stayed with you because it is your | own. It is the only thing you bring with you from Him Who is your |
| W1:189.2 | salvation in you and protects the light in you in which it sees its | own. It offers you its flowers and its snow in thankfulness for your |
| W1:189.10 | answered us. We will not interfere. Salvation's ways are not our | own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. Our |
| W1:189.10 | would find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, which is our | own as well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a part |
| W1:190.6 | and forever. And would you deny a little corner of your mind its | own inheritance and keep it as a hospital for pain, a sickly place |
| W1:191.2 | your world? What have you done that this is what you see? Deny your | own Identity, and this is what remains. You look on chaos and |
| W1:191.3 | Deny your | own Identity, and you will not escape the madness which induced this |
| W1:191.3 | thought which mocks creation and which laughs at God. Deny your | own Identity, and you assail the universe alone, without a friend, a |
| W1:191.3 | tiny particle of dust against the legions of your enemies. Deny your | own Identity and look on evil, sin, and death. And watch despair |
| W1:191.13 | They must await your | own release. They stay in chains till you are free. They cannot see |
| W1:191.13 | until you have denied its hold on you. They die till you accept your | own eternal life. You are the holy Son of God Himself. Remember this |
| W1:192.1 | and attack? Therefore you have a function in the world in its | own terms. For who can understand a language far beyond his simple |
| W1:193.12 | all the gifts His Love brings with it. Would you now renounce your | own salvation? Would you fail to learn the simple lessons Heaven's |
| W1:195.10 | God gives thanks to you, His Son, for being what you are—His | own completion and the source of love, along with Him. Your gratitude |
| W1:196.1 | a brother saves yourself. And you will understand his safety is your | own, and in his healing you are healed. |
| W1:196.8 | once you understand it is impossible that you be hurt except by your | own thoughts, the fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe |
| W1:197.1 | free your mind from the belief in outside force pitted against your | own. You make attempts at kindness and forgiveness. Yet you turn them |
| W1:197.5 | can be given only to yourself, and what belongs to God must be His | own. Yet you will never realize His gifts are sure, eternal, |
| W1:198.5 | teach, instead of trying to dismiss His words and substitute your | own in place of His? |
| W1:198.10 | Only my condemnation injures me. Only my | own forgiveness sets me free. |
| W1:200.7 | Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to God's Will and to his | own, which is the same as His. What could he hope to find in such a |
| W1:203.1 | [183] I call upon God's Name and on my | own. The Name of God is my deliverance from every thought of evil and |
| W1:203.1 | deliverance from every thought of evil and of sin, because it is my | own as well as His. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W1:210.1 | [190] I choose the joy of God instead of pain. Pain is my | own idea. It is not a thought of God, but one I thought apart from |
| W1:213.1 | I am set free. And so I choose to learn His lessons and forget my | own. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W2:I.6 | one we made and take that world to be the full replacement of our | own. |
| W2:227.1 | exists. And I am free because I was mistaken and did not affect my | own reality at all by my illusions. Now I give them up and lay them |
| W2:229.1 | I seek my | own Identity and find it in these words: “Love, Which created me, is |
| W2:WS.2 | to recognize its oneness. Now it did not know itself and thought its | own Identity was lost. |
| W2:233.1 | today. I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me Your | own. I give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your will instead |
| W2:240.1 | what the form in which it may appear. It witnesses but to your | own illusions of yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the |
| W2:240.2 | may understand his holiness and feel the love for him that is Your | own as well. |
| W2:247.1 | Brother, come and let me look on you. Your loveliness reflects my | own. Your sinlessness is mine. You stand forgiven, and I stand with |
| W2:247.2 | created them and gave them all to me as part of You and my | own Self as well. Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope |
| W2:248.2 | Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my | own. Now do I understand that they are one. |
| W2:253.2 | Which rules the universe, is but Your will in perfect union with my | own, which can but offer glad assent to Yours that It may be extended |
| W2:264.1 | I look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches for my | own. In You time disappears and place becomes a meaningless belief. |
| W2:264.1 | Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your | own Name today, to be at peace within Your everlasting Love. |
| W2:266.2 | This day we enter into paradise, calling upon God's name and on our | own, acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the holy Love of |
| W2:267.2 | Let me attend Your Answer, not my | own. Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of Love |
| W2:269.2 | We are one because of Him Who is the Son of God, of Him Who is our | own Identity. |
| W2:270.1 | And now his will is one with Yours. His function now is but Your | own, and every thought except Your own is gone. |
| W2:270.1 | His function now is but Your own, and every thought except Your | own is gone. |
| W2:273.2 | the peace You gave Your Son is with me still, in quietness and in my | own eternal love for You. |
| W2:276.2 | I would speak to all my brothers, who are given me to cherish as my | own, as I am loved and blessed and saved by You. |
| W2:279.2 | my faith to them. My Father loves the Son Whom He created as His | own. Would You withhold the gifts You gave to me? |
| W2:288.1 | let me honor him who bears Your Name and so remember that It is my | own. |
| W2:289.2 | not look upon a past that is not there. For You have offered me Your | own replacement in a present world the past has left untouched and |
| W2:290.1 | vision come to me this very day. What I perceive without God's | own correction for the sight I made is frightening and painful to |
| W2:299.1 | My holiness is far beyond my | own ability to understand or know. Yet God my Father, Who created it, |
| W2:302.1 | had forgot the Son whom You created. Now we see that darkness is our | own imagining and light is there for us to look upon. Christ's vision |
| W2:302.1 | that I may look upon its holiness and understand it but reflects my | own. |
| W2:309.1 | forever and forever. I, His Son, whose will is limitless as is His | own, can will no change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to |
| W2:309.1 | will no change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to deny my | own. To look within is but to find my will as God created it and as |
| W2:WILJ.3 | return to peace, security and happiness, and union with your | own Identity. |
| W2:315.1 | or mercy, and my mind perceives this gift and takes it as its | own. And everyone who finds the way to God becomes my savior, |
| W2:WICR.2 | God's thoughts are given all the power that Their | own Creator has. For He would add to Love by its extension. Thus His |
| W2:WICR.5 | in the name of its Creator, Holiness Itself, Whose holiness His | own creation shares; Whose holiness is still a part of us. |
| W2:323.1 | in to his awareness, healing him of pain and giving him Your | own eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of me, and one I |
| W2:325.1 | outward, looked upon, esteemed as real, and guarded as one's | own. From insane wishes comes an insane world. From judgment comes a |
| W2:328.1 | is there any second to His Will. To join with His is but to find our | own. And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to |
| W2:330.1 | its freedom and its joy, as is the Will of God united with its | own. The Self which God created cannot sin and therefore cannot |
| W2:332.1 | mind. Without forgiveness is the mind in chains, believing in its | own futility. Yet with forgiveness does the light shine through the |
| W2:335.1 | this. My brother's sinlessness shows me that I would look upon my | own. And I will see it, having chosen to behold my brother in its |
| W2:344.1 | This is Your law, my Father, not my | own. I have not understood what giving means and thought to save what |
| W2:346.1 | forgetting all the foolish toys I made as I behold Your glory and my | own. |
| W2:347.1 | Him judge today. I do not know my will, but He is sure it is Your | own. And He will speak for me, and call Your miracle to come to me. |
| W2:348.1 | What can I fear when You created me in holiness as perfect as Your | own? |
| W2:349.1 | do I obey the law of love and give what I would find and make my | own. It will be given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want |
| W2:WAI.1 | I am His holy sinlessness itself, for in my purity abides His | own. |
| W2:352.1 | would hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I would love my | own Identity and find in Him the memory of You. |
| W2:354.1 | I have no self except the Christ in me. I have no purpose but His | own. And He is like His Father. Thus must I be one with You as well |
| W2:356.1 | answer to Your Son because to call Your Name is but to call his | own. |
| W2:359.1 | Father, today we will forgive Your world and let creation be Your | own. We have misunderstood all things. But we have not made sinners |
| W2:FL.3 | God has given us. It is His ending to the dream we seek, and not our | own. For all that we forgive we will not fail to recognize as part of |
| W2:FL.4 | our function to remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His | own completion in reality. So let us not forget our goal is shared. |
| W2:FL.6 | and ask Him to help us to learn His lessons through the Voice of His | own Teacher. Would He hurt His Son? Or would He rush to answer him |
| W2:FL.6 | I have is his”? Be certain He will answer thus, for these are His | own Words to you. And more than that can no one ever have, for in |
| W2:E.3 | Word that God has given you. His is the Word you chose to be your | own. |
| M:I.5 | How are they chosen? What do they do? How can they work out their | own salvation and the salvation of the world? This manual attempts to |
| M:1.3 | He has seen someone else as himself. He has therefore found his | own salvation and the salvation of the world. In his rebirth is the |
| M:2.5 | to him. He has seen in another person the same interests as his | own. |

| M:4.4 | Power has once been experienced, it is impossible to trust one's | own petty strength again. Who would attempt to fly with the tiny |
| M:4.7 | one in which the teacher of God feels called upon to sacrifice his | own best interests on behalf of truth. He has not realized as yet how |
| M:4.9 | not want the valueless and that he did want the valuable. Yet his | own sorting-out was meaningless in teaching him the difference. The |
| M:4.15 | Him Who is their Source. And so their will, which always was His | own, is free to be itself. |
| M:5.5 | agents seem to be ministering to him, yet they but give form to his | own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible form to his desires. |

| M:7.2 | has given the problem to One Who cannot fail, and recognize that his | own uncertainty is not love but fear and therefore hate. His position |
| M:8.2 | different from other minds, with different interests of its | own and able to gratify its needs at the expense of others. |
| M:9.2 | learns one lesson with increasing thoroughness. He does not make his | own decisions; he asks his Teacher for His answer, and it is this he |
| M:9.2 | easier and easier as the teacher of God learns to give up his | own judgment. The giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for |
| M:10.5 | to Him Whose judgment he has chosen now to trust instead of his | own. Now he makes no mistakes. His Guide is sure. And where he came |
| M:12.1 | His perception of Himself is based upon God's Judgment, not His | own. Thus does He share God's Will and bring His Thoughts to still |

| M:16.2 | do apply, although each one must use them as best he can in his | own way. Routines as such are dangerous because they easily become |
| M:16.2 | as such are dangerous because they easily become gods in their | own right, threatening the very goals for which they were set up. |

| M:17.9 | Now is escape impossible until you see you have responded to your | own interpretation which you have projected on an outside world. Let |
| M:18.5 | it thus becomes essential for the teacher of God to let all his | own mistakes be corrected. If he senses even the faintest hint of |
| M:19.5 | Pray for God's justice, and do not confuse His mercy with your | own insanity. Perception can make whatever picture the mind desires |
| M:21.3 | not exist or seeks for illusions in his heart, all this becomes his | own. The power of his decision offers it to him, as he requests. |
| M:21.5 | All these are judgments which have no value. They are his | own, coming from a shabby self-perception that he would leave behind. |
| M:21.5 | to you, but offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than your | own. God's teachers have God's Word behind their symbols. And He |
| M:22.5 | he has forgotten Who he is. Another's sickness thus becomes his | own. In allowing this to happen, he has identified with another's ego |
| M:23.3 | Sonship is also yours, and his completed learning guarantees your | own success. Is he still available for help? What did he say about |
| M:24.3 | required of him, it would merely limit his usefulness as well as his | own decision-making. Our course is not concerned with any concept |
| M:24.3 | of the course merely because it advocates a long-held belief of his | own. |
| M:24.5 | in some way which is detrimental to his pupil's advance or his | own. Reinterpretation would then be recommended because it would be |
| M:26.2 | directly, retaining no trace of worldly limits and remembering their | own Identity perfectly. These might be called the teachers of |

| M:28.5 | forever and forever, and we wish for nothing but His Will to be our | own. Illusions of another will are lost, for unity of purpose has |
| M:29.3 | core of the curriculum. The imagined usurping of functions not your | own is the basis of fear. The whole world you see reflects the |
| M:29.3 | the Holy Spirit's guidance is necessary merely because of your | own inadequacies. It is the way out of hell for you. |
