| Tx:9.16 | It seems absurd to have to emphasize repeatedly that the ego's | qualifications as a guide are singularly unfortunate and that it is a |

| Tx:1.62 | kind of response that is evoked. Behavior is response, so that the | question “response to what?” becomes crucial. Since stimuli are |
| Tx:3.23 | of the brain. Correctly understood, the issue revolves around the | question of whether the body or the mind can see (or understand). |
| Tx:3.23 | body or the mind can see (or understand). This is not really open to | question at all. The body is not capable of understanding, and only |
| Tx:3.31 | is a way of perceiving, not of knowing. It is the right answer to a | question, and you do not ask questions at all when you know. |

| Tx:3.40 | is because that is all he can be sure of. Everything else is open to | question. |
| Tx:3.53 | his right mind. The problem that bothers you most is the fundamental | question which man continually asks of himself, but which cannot |
| Tx:3.66 | defense for your own authority. The issue of authority is really a | question of authorship. When an individual has an “authority |

| Tx:4.72 | is none, but it does have a typical solution. It obliterates the | question from the mind's awareness. Once unconscious, the question |
| Tx:4.72 | the question from the mind's awareness. Once unconscious, the | question can and does produce uneasiness, but it cannot be answered |
| Tx:4.72 | but it cannot be answered because it cannot be asked. This is the | question which must be asked: “Where am I to go for protection?” Even |
| Tx:4.75 | the eternal, just as it does with all issues that touch on the real | question in any way. By compromising in connection with all |
| Tx:4.75 | connection with all tangential questions, it hopes to hide the real | question and keep it out of mind. The ego's characteristic busyness |

| Tx:4.78 | This is the | question which you must learn to ask in connection with everything |
| Tx:4.81 | you appear to be living in this world, and since this is a sensible | question, it has a sensible answer. You must be careful, however, |
| Tx:4.81 | answer. You must be careful, however, that you really understand the | question. What is the “you” who are living in this world? |
| Tx:5.37 | so the lower mind, which is the ego's domain, accepts it without | question. The only aspect of time which is really eternal is now. |
| Tx:5.66 | them according to what it wants, just as you can. That is why the | question, “What do you want?” must be answered. You are answering it |
| Tx:5.69 | is beyond doubt, how can its symptoms remain? You have reason to | question the validity of symptom cure, but no one believes that the |
| Tx:6.45 | Remember that the Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the | question. The ego always speaks first because it is capricious and |
| Tx:6.46 | and outside the Mind of God. The ego, then, raised the first | question that was ever asked, but one which it can never answer. That |
| Tx:6.46 | that was ever asked, but one which it can never answer. That | question, “What are you?” was the beginning of doubt. |
| Tx:6.47 | activities of the ego have never done more than obscure the | question, because you have the answer and the ego is afraid of you. |
| Tx:6.51 | are is perfectly certain. There is no doubt there because the first | question was never asked. Having finally been wholly answered, it has |
| Tx:6.51 | alone lives in the Kingdom, where everything lives in God without | question. The time that was spent on questioning in the dream has |
| Tx:6.56 | to eradicate it would be to attack it. Being questioned, He did not | question. He merely gave the Answer. His Answer is your Teacher. |
| Tx:6.91 | but God and His creations are beyond belief, because they are beyond | question. The Voice for God speaks only for belief beyond question, |

| Tx:7.64 | Your identification with the Kingdom is totally beyond | question, except by you when you are thinking insanely. What you are |
| Tx:7.104 | God Himself trusts you, and therefore your trustworthiness is beyond | question. It will always remain beyond question, however much you may |

| Tx:8.49 | There is no | question but one you should ever ask of yourself: “Do I want to know |
| Tx:8.80 | what the answer to everything is. The ego does not know what a real | question is, although it asks an endless number. Yet you can learn |
| Tx:8.80 | it asks an endless number. Yet you can learn this as you learn to | question the value of the ego and thus establish your ability to |
| Tx:8.110 | know your prayers are answered, never doubt a Son of God. Do not | question him and do not confound him, for your faith in him is your |
| Tx:9.16 | it is a remarkably poor choice as a teacher of salvation. Yet this | question, ridiculous as it seems, is really the crucial issue in the |
| Tx:9.43 | taken for granted there, and you do not ask, “Who granted it?” The | question is meaningless within the ego's thought system, because it |
| Tx:9.43 | ego's thought system, because it opens the whole thought system to | question. |
| Tx:9.44 | We said before that the ego does not know what a real | question is. Lack of knowledge of any kind is always associated with |
| Tx:9.44 | a total lack of knowledge simply because knowledge is total. Not to | question your littleness, therefore, is to deny all knowledge and |
| Tx:9.45 | Whenever you | question your value, say: |
| Tx:9.58 | but the Source is true and so is Its answer. Listen and do not | question what you hear, for God does not deceive. He would have you |
| Tx:9.58 | the ego's belief in littleness with His own exalted answer to the | question of your being, so that you can cease to question it and know |
| Tx:9.58 | answer to the question of your being, so that you can cease to | question it and know it for what it is. |
| Tx:10.1 | is creation. Therefore, your decision is always an answer to the | question, “Who is my father?” And you will be faithful to the father |
| Tx:10.2 | Yet what would you say to someone who really believed this | question involves conflict? If you made the ego, how can the ego have |
| Tx:10.64 | by His grace, for God is gracious to His Son, accepting him without | question as His own. Who, then, is your own? The Father has given you |
| Tx:10.76 | Yet your willingness to learn of Him depends on your willingness to | question everything you have learned of yourself, for you who have |
| Tx:10.77 | which God has answered. Ask yourselves, therefore, but one simple | question— |
| Tx:10.81 | Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting the | question you must ask to learn His answer? |
| Tx:10.82 | You have heard the answer, but you have misunderstood the | question. You have believed that to ask for guidance of the Holy |
| Tx:11.25 | you invest in is always related to your notion of salvation. The | question is always two-fold—first, what is to be saved, and second, |
| Tx:11.80 | You can deny it, but you cannot lose it. A Voice will answer every | question you ask, and a Vision will correct the perception of |
| Tx:12.4 | foundation, and while the ego can withstand your raising all else to | question, it guards this one secret with its life, for its existence |
| Tx:12.25 | if it must come to this and needs this to prove that it was. You | question Heaven, but you do not question this. You could heal and be |
| Tx:12.25 | needs this to prove that it was. You question Heaven, but you do not | question this. You could heal and be healed if you did question it. |
| Tx:12.25 | you do not question this. You could heal and be healed if you did | question it. And even though you know not Heaven, might it not be |
| Tx:12.69 | tighten up your world against the light and render you unwilling to | question the value that this world can really hold for you. |
| Tx:13.92 | hard. The Holy Spirit will not delay at all in answering your every | question what to do. He knows. And He will tell you and then do it |
| Tx:15.26 | before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to God?” Let this | question be asked you by the Holy Spirit in you every time you make a |
| Tx:15.67 | judged it completely in the dark. As we bring it to light, your only | question will be why it was you ever wanted it. You have nothing to |
| Tx:15.96 | are convinced, someone must pay and someone must get. And the only | question which remains to be decided is how much is the price for |
| Tx:15.98 | to be destroyed. For you see love as destructive, and your only | question is who is to be destroyed, you or another? You seek to |
| Tx:15.98 | is who is to be destroyed, you or another? You seek to answer this | question in your special relationships, in which you are both |
| Tx:15.100 | project it from you and see it outside yourself. In you are both the | question and the answer—the demand for sacrifice and the peace of |
| Tx:18.36 | You merely ask the | question. The answer is given. Seek not to answer it, but merely |
| Tx:20.18 | first where they would have it be. Their looking merely asked a | question, and it was what they saw that answered them. You make the |
| Tx:20.19 | A simple | question yet remains and needs an answer. Do you like what you have |
| Tx:20.21 | answered. Take not the judgment of the world as answer to the | question, “What am I?” |
| Tx:20.66 | Your | question should not be, “How can I see my brother without the body?” |
| Tx:20.74 | when that purpose is no longer held, they disappear. Therefore, the | question never is whether you want them, but always, do you want the |
| Tx:21.5 | want to learn and not forget. It is not this you would deny. Your | question is whether the means by which this course is learned will |
| Tx:21.43 | What if you looked within and saw no sin? This “fearful” | question is one the ego never asks. And you who ask it now are |
| Tx:21.48 | and by clamor. The quiet way is open. Follow it happily and | question not what must be so. |
| Tx:21.52 | would give? All sorts of questions may arise in it, but if the basic | question stems from reason, it will not ask it. Like all that stems |
| Tx:21.52 | it will not ask it. Like all that stems from reason, the basic | question is obvious, simple, and remains unasked. But think not |
| Tx:21.58 | close to this. Faith and belief have shifted, and you have asked the | question which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you |
| Tx:21.58 | which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you now the | question must have come from something that you do not know but must |
| Tx:21.76 | would emphasize the sameness of things that are the same. This final | question, which is indeed the last you need decide, still seems to |
| Tx:21.78 | Consider carefully your answer to the last | question you have left unanswered still. And let your reason tell you |
| Tx:21.81 | Why is the final | question so important? Reason will tell you why. It is the same as |
| Tx:21.82 | look on sin are seeing the denial of the real world. Yet the last | question adds the wish for constancy in your desire to see the real |
| Tx:21.82 | so the desire becomes the only one you have. By answering the final | question “yes,” you add sincerity to the decisions you have already |
| Tx:21.87 | cannot be shaken. It comes as surely unto those who see the final | question is necessary to the rest, as peace must come to those who |
| Tx:21.89 | it should be you have not yet decided how you would answer the final | question. Your answer to the others has made it possible to help you |
| Tx:21.90 | Here is what denial has denied revealed to you. For here the final | question is already answered and what you ask for given. Here is the |
| Tx:22.63 | can attack. Either could be maintained, but never both. The only | question to be answered to decide which must be true is whether you |
| Tx:23.29 | And now there is a vague unanswered | question, not yet “explained.” What is this precious thing, this |
| Tx:24.2 | To learn this course requires willingness to | question every value that you hold. Not one can be kept hidden and |
| Tx:25.58 | Now must he | question this because the form of the alternative is one which he |
| Tx:26.85 | or not at all. Confused perception will block knowledge. It is not a | question of the size of the confusion or how much it interferes. Its |
| Tx:27.38 | no answer there that could be found. Nowhere outside a single simple | question is ever asked. The world can only ask a double question with |
| Tx:27.38 | simple question is ever asked. The world can only ask a double | question with many answers, none of which will do. It does not ask a |
| Tx:27.38 | question with many answers, none of which will do. It does not ask a | question to be answered, but only to restate its point of view. All |
| Tx:27.38 | questions asked within this world are but a way of looking, not a | question asked. A question asked in hate cannot be answered, because |
| Tx:27.38 | within this world are but a way of looking, not a question asked. A | question asked in hate cannot be answered, because it is an answer in |
| Tx:27.38 | hate cannot be answered, because it is an answer in itself. A double | question asks and answers, both attesting the same thing in different |
| Tx:27.39 | The world asks but one | question. It is this: “Of these illusions, which of them are true? |
| Tx:27.39 | from all the pain of which this world is made?” Whatever form the | question takes, its purpose is the same. It asks but to establish sin |
| Tx:27.39 | want, and it will serve you lovingly and well.” And this is not a | question, for it tells you what you want and where to go for it. It |
| Tx:27.39 | tells you what you want and where to go for it. It leaves no room to | question its beliefs, except that what it states takes question's |
| Tx:27.41 | An honest | question is a learning tool which asks for something that you do not |
| Tx:27.41 | should be. But no one in a conflict state is free to ask this | question, for he does not want an honest answer where the conflict |
| Tx:27.41 | where the conflict ends. Only within the holy instant can an honest | question honestly be asked. And from the meaning of the question does |
| Tx:27.41 | an honest question honestly be asked. And from the meaning of the | question does the meaningfulness of the answer come. Here is it |
| Tx:27.42 | tells “of whom,” it will remain unrecognized, unheard, and thus the | question is preserved intact because it gave the answer to itself. |
| Tx:27.42 | is still enough to hear an answer which is not entailed within the | question asked. It offers something new and different from the |
| Tx:27.42 | the question asked. It offers something new and different from the | question. How could it be answered if it but repeats itself? |
| Tx:27.43 | they stand apart from them, and see what can be answered—what the | question is. Within the world the answers merely raise another |
| Tx:27.43 | the question is. Within the world the answers merely raise another | question, though they leave the first unanswered. In the holy |
| Tx:27.43 | leave the first unanswered. In the holy instant, you can bring the | question to the answer and receive the answer that was made for you. |
| Tx:27.47 | and suffering whispers, “What is there to fear?” Consider well its | question. It is asked of you on your behalf. A dying world asks only |
| Tx:29.59 | What purpose has an idol, then? What is it for? This is the only | question which has many answers, each depending on the one of whom |
| Tx:29.59 | which has many answers, each depending on the one of whom the | question has been asked. The world believes in idols. No one comes |
| Tx:30.10 | you. This means you have decided by yourself and cannot see the | question. Now you need a quick restorative before you ask. |
| Tx:30.11 | occurred which is not part of it. Then realize that you have asked a | question by yourself and must have set an answer in your terms. Then |
| Tx:30.12 | I have no | question. I forgot what to decide. |
| Tx:30.13 | the terms which you have set and lets the answer show you what the | question must have really been. |
| Tx:30.14 | of being answered in a different way from what your version of the | question asks will gain momentum until you believe the day you want |
| Tx:30.14 | believe the day you want is one in which you get your answer to your | question. And you will not get it, for it would destroy the day by |
| Tx:30.15 | 4. If you are so unwilling to receive you cannot even let your | question go, you can begin to change your mind with this: |
| Tx:30.27 | Thus you now can ask a | question that makes sense, and so the answer will make sense as well. |
| Tx:30.29 | in itself. And yet, you cannot make decisions by yourself. The only | question really is with what you choose to make them. That is really |
| Tx:31.6 | outcome is inevitable, sure as God, and far beyond all doubt and | question? Can it be your little learning, strange in outcome and |
| Tx:31.53 | not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks if just a little | question might be raised. |
| Tx:31.55 | Although this step has gains, it does not yet approach a basic | question. Something must have gone before these concepts of the self. |
| Tx:31.59 | exactly as it is. When every concept has been raised to doubt and | question and been recognized as made on no assumptions which would |
| W1:3.1 | a proper subject for applying the idea. Be sure that you do not | question the suitability of anything for the application of the idea. |
| W1:27.7 | The real | question is how often will you remember? How much do you want today's |
| W1:28.1 | periods, you will be making a series of definite commitments. The | question of whether you will keep them in the future is not our |
| W1:28.4 | You will not | question what we have already defined. And the purpose of these |
| W1:39.2 | you may feel in answering is not due to the ambiguity of the | question. But do you believe that guilt is hell? If you did, you |
| W1:39.4 | Your holiness is the answer to every | question that was ever asked, is being asked now, or will be asked in |
| W1:39.14 | four times an hour and more if possible, you may ask yourself this | question, repeat today's idea, or preferably both. If temptations |
| W1:41.1 | be the “ills of the world.” But the one thing they do not do is to | question the reality of the problem. Yet its effects cannot be cured |
| W1:64.3 | you by God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that leads you to | question this and only the fear of the ego that induces you to regard |
| W1:66.2 | The ego does constant battle with the Holy Spirit on the fundamental | question of what your function is. So does it do constant battle with |
| W1:68.5 | think you can let all your grievances go. That, however, is simply a | question of motivation. Today we will try to find out how you would |
| W1:72.15 | wane and your hope of success flicker and go out, repeat your | question and your request, remembering that you are asking them of |
| W1:77.6 | is no room for doubt and uncertainty today. We are asking a real | question at last. The answer is a simple statement of a simple fact. |
| W1:91.8 | The | question with which this statement ends is needed for our exercises |
| W1:93.3 | Today we | question this, not from the point of view of what you think, but from |
| W1:102.1 | Yet this belief is surely shaken now, at least enough to let you | question it and to suspect it really makes no sense. It has not gone |
| W1:121.5 | is correct. It does not ask because it thinks it knows. It does not | question, certain it is right. |
| W1:124.3 | the happiness we gave. Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor | question His protection and His care. |
| W1:132.1 | his thoughts' effects. It is but when their source is raised to | question that the hope of freedom comes to him at last. |
| W1:135.25 | you thought confronted you. But they are answers to another kind of | question which remains unanswered yet in need of answering until the |
| W1:138.8 | are made unaware to keep them safely undisturbed, apart from | question and from reason and from doubt. |
| W1:139.1 | what we are? There is no doubt that is not rooted here. There is no | question but reflects this one. There is no conflict that does not |
| W1:139.1 | one. There is no conflict that does not entail the single simple | question, “What am I?” |
| W1:139.2 | Yet who could ask this | question except one who has refused to recognize himself? Only |
| W1:139.2 | to recognize himself? Only refusal to accept yourself could make the | question seem to be sincere. The only thing that can be surely known |
| W1:139.3 | instead? Who is the doubter? What is it he doubts? Whom does he | question? Who can answer him? He merely states that he is not himself |
| W1:139.5 | doubt yourself. It cannot really be a part of you that asks this | question, for it asks of one who knows the answer. Were it part of |
| W1:139.6 | really are. This is the depth of madness. Yet it is the universal | question of the world. What does this prove except the world is mad? |
| W1:139.6 | a home where those who claim they do not know themselves can come to | question what it is they are. |
| W1:139.7 | holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and | question that to ask what it must be is all the proof you need to |
| W1:139.8 | Is this a | question or a statement which denies itself in statement? Let us not |

| W1:156.8 | “Who walks with me?” This | question should be asked a thousand times a day, till certainty has |
| W1:156.8 | Today let doubting cease. God speaks for you in answering your | question with these words: |
| W1:160.5 | How simply, then, the | question is resolved. Who fears has but denied himself and said, “I |
| W1:170.7 | demand that those who worship them obey their dictates and refuse to | question them. Harsh punishment is meted out relentlessly to those |
| W1:184.6 | that it is true is but illusion, for it is the ultimate reality. To | question it is madness; to accept its presence is the proof of sanity. |
| W1:184.7 | are its premises, how doubtful its results, the sooner does he | question its effects. Learning which stops with what the world would |
| W1:185.9 | And being one, one | question should be asked of all of them: “Is this what I would have, |
| W1:193.3 | not see nor understand by giving of His Love and making Answer to a | question which, though meaningless, His Son had asked of Him.] |
| W1:196.6 | nor even see that it is there so that it would be possible to | question it. |
| W1:196.7 | To | question it at all, its form must first be changed at least as much |
| M:I.2 | the time. From your demonstration, others learn and so do you. The | question is not whether you will teach, for in that there is no |
| M:1.4 | tired now. It is old and worn and without hope. There was never a | question of outcome, for what can change the Will of God? But time, |
| M:5.9 | of a teacher of God is a reminder. His thoughts ask for the right to | question what the patient has accepted is true. As God's messengers, |

| W1:97.1 | often as you can, for it will bring your mind from conflict to the | quiet fields of peace. No chill of fear can enter, for your mind has |
| W1:98.3 | invent escapes from fancied threats without reality. They rest in | quiet certainty that they will do what it is given them to do. They |
| W1:103.6 | you. Bolster this expectation frequently throughout the day, and | quiet all your fears with this assurance, kind and wholly true: |
| W1:106.1 | you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of truth, | quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely certain in its |
| W1:107.3 | Then let the sense of | quiet that you felt be multiplied a hundred times and then be |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and | quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you |
| W1:109.10 | here and rest with you. You rest within the peace of God today, | quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest and offer it |
| W1:R3.6 | your assistance. Give direction at the start, and then lean back in | quiet faith and let the mind employ the thoughts you gave as they |
| W1:120.2 | today and let Him work in me and through me, while I rest in Him in | quiet and in perfect certainty. |
| W1:122.1 | Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want happiness, a | quiet mind, a certainty of purpose, and a sense of worth and beauty |
| W1:125.1 | Let this day be a day of stillness and of | quiet listening. Your Father wills you hear His Word today. He calls |
| W1:125.1 | until His Word is heard around the world; until your mind, in | quiet listening, accepts the message which the world must hear to |
| W1:125.1 | accepts the message which the world must hear to usher in the | quiet time of peace. |
| W1:125.4 | the holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the | quiet place within the mind where He abides forever in the holiness |
| W1:125.6 | awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be heard until your mind is | quiet for a while and meaningless desires have been stilled. Await |
| W1:125.6 | a while and meaningless desires have been stilled. Await His Word in | quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon today to help make |
| W1:125.8 | separation nor division in the single Mind of Father and of Son. In | quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him tell you God has never |
| W1:125.9 | Only be | quiet. You will need no rule but this to let your practicing today |
| W1:125.10 | and remind yourself you have a special purpose for this day—in | quiet to receive the Word of God. |
| W1:126.10 | which does not understand forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the | quiet place where thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. |
| W1:126.13 | Then spend a | quiet moment, opening your mind to His correction and His Love. And |
| W1:128.8 | refuse to lay this chain upon your mind and tell yourself with | quiet certainty: |
| W1:134.6 | natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who offer it; a | quiet blessing where it is received. It does not countenance |
| W1:134.7 | shrieks of sinners mad with guilt. It looks on them with | quiet eyes and merely says to them, “My brother, what you think is |
| W1:137.16 | Let healing be through you this very day. And as you rest in | quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to hold but what you give, |
| W1:138.12 | As every hour passed, we have declared our choice again in a brief | quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. And finally we close the |
| W1:140.10 | of truth where all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal | quiet home of God. |
| W1:R4.11 | bring to your mind the thought with which the day began and spend a | quiet moment with it. Then repeat the two ideas you practice for the |
| W1:R4.11 | We need no more than this to give us happiness and rest and endless | quiet, perfect certainty, and all our Father wills that we receive as |

| W1:153.13 | made mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a | quiet time has come in which we put away the toys of guilt and lock |
| W1:153.18 | think of Him and hear His loving Voice guiding your footsteps into | quiet ways where you will walk in true defenselessness, for you will |
| W1:155.1 | you smile more frequently. Your forehead is serene; your eyes are | quiet. And the ones who walk the world as you do recognize their own. |

| W1:165.3 | and his peace, his joy, his healing and his peace of mind, his | quiet rest, his calm awakening if he but recognized where they abide? |
| W1:170.6 | escape from doubts about your strength and hope of rest in dreamless | quiet. And as love is shorn of what belongs to it and it alone, love |
| 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 |
| W1:183.6 | with him in silence and repeat God's Name along with him within your | quiet minds, you have established there an altar which reaches to God |

| W1:194.1 | foot has reached the lawns that welcome you to Heaven's gate, the | quiet place of peace where you await with certainty the final step of |
| W1:198.13 | no sense. Now is there tranquil light across the face of earth, made | quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of God alone remains |
| W1:R6.10 | thoughts to aid your practicing. Instead we give these times of | quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and |
| W1:R6.10 | Instead we give these times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in | quiet, speaks of peace, and gives our thoughts whatever meaning they |
| W2:I.2 | we attempt to let the exercise be merely a beginning. For we wait in | quiet expectation for our God and Father. He has promised He will |
| W2:221.1 | to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. In the | quiet of my heart, the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen |
| W2:221.2 | Now do we wait in | quiet. God is here because we wait together. I am sure that He will |
| W2:252.1 | with an intensity that holds all things within it in the calm of | quiet certainty. Its strength comes not from burning impulses which |
| W2:263.1 | You blessed creation—all its purity, its joy, and its eternal, | quiet home in You. |
| W2:265.2 | In | quiet would I look upon the world, which but reflects Your thoughts |
| W2:267.1 | directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever | quiet and at peace within His loving arms. Each heartbeat calls His |
| W2:270.2 | The | quiet of today will bless our hearts, and through them peace will |

| W2:291.2 | This day my mind is | quiet to receive the thoughts You offer me. And I accept what comes |
| W2:291.2 | to You. But You are wholly certain. Father, lead Your Son along the | quiet path that ends in You. Let my forgiveness be complete, and let |
| W2:303.1 | be still with me while Heaven's Son is born. Let earthly sounds be | quiet and the sights to which I am accustomed disappear. Let Christ |
| W2:305.1 | Who uses but Christ's vision finds a peace so deep and | quiet, undisturbable and wholly changeless that the world contains no |

| M:4.8 | Now comes a “period of settling down.” This is a | quiet time in which the teacher of God rests a while in reasonable |
| M:4.22 | them it looks, seeking until it finds. And having found, it rests in | quiet certainty on that alone to which all faithfulness is due. |
| M:15.3 | Or do you still attempt to take His role from Him? Learn to be | quiet, for His Voice is heard in stillness. And His Judgment comes to |
| M:15.3 | heard in stillness. And His Judgment comes to all who stand aside in | quiet listening and wait for Him. |
| M:16.4 | may be that the teacher of God is not in a situation which fosters | quiet thought as he awakes. If this is so, let him but remember that |
| M:16.4 | can be made is this—as soon as possible after waking, take your | quiet time, continuing a minute or two after you begin to find it |

| Tx:19.51 | perception. What love would look upon is meaningless to fear and | quite invisible. Relationships in this world are the result of how |
| Tx:19.92 | of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of God seems | quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the fear of |

| Tx:21.40 | so it still is seen. Yet in the light of vision, it is looked upon | quite differently. You can have faith in it to serve the Holy |
| Tx:21.41 | not be fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the ego deems | quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to let you |

| W1:26.11 | distressing possibilities available for each situation you use and | quite possibly more. It is much more helpful to cover a few |
| W1:27.7 | the other. You will probably miss several applications and perhaps | quite a number. Do not be disturbed by this, but do try to keep on |
| W1:28.10 | Each application should be made | quite slowly and as thoughtfully as possible. There is no hurry. |

| W1:36.6 | with your eyes closed. All applications should, of course, be made | quite slowly, as effortlessly and unhurriedly as possible. |
| W1:40.2 | Do not miss a practice period because of this. You can practice | quite well under almost any circumstance, if you really want to. |
| W1:41.7 | It is | quite possible to reach God. In fact it is very easy because it is |
