| Tx:20.69 | Christ may rise before your vision and give you joy. And place no | value on your brother's body, which holds him to illusions of what he |

| Tx:19.92 | solemn vow, the promise made in secret to the ego never to lift this | veil, not to approach it nor even to suspect that it is there. This |
| Tx:19.92 | is the secret bargain made with the ego to keep what lies beyond the | veil forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is your promise never |
| Tx:19.95 | your eyes. For you realize that if you look on this and let the | veil be lifted, they will be gone forever. All of your “friends,” |
| Tx:19.96 | can stand against your will. For what attracts you from beyond the | veil is also deep within you, unseparated from it and completely one. |

| Tx:20.11 | him king of death. Your chosen home is on the other side, beyond the | veil. It has been carefully prepared for you, and it is ready to |

| Tx:22.40 | And so you stand, here in this holy place, before the | veil of sin that hangs between you and the face of Christ. Let it be |
| Tx:22.40 | face of Christ. Let it be lifted! Raise it together, for it is but a | veil that stands between you. Either alone will see it as a solid |
| Tx:22.40 | in your awareness, and peace has reached you even here before the | veil. Think what will happen after! The love of Christ will light |
| Tx:22.41 | in you but will rejoice. How beautiful the sight you saw beyond the | veil which you will bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary |
| Tx:22.43 | surmounted which seemed to rise and block their way before. This | veil you lift together opens the way to truth to more than you. Those |
| Tx:22.44 | —to receive together and give as you received. Standing before the | veil, it still seems difficult. But hold out your joined hands and |
| Tx:24.54 | lives and you along with him. Let not your eyes be blinded by the | veil of specialness that hides the face of Christ from him, and you |
| Tx:25.7 | its darkness into light merely by looking past it to the light. The | veil is lifted through its gentleness, and nothing hides the face of |

| Tx:16.71 | The special relationship takes | vengeance on the past. By seeking to remove suffering in the past, it |
| Tx:16.72 | Do not underestimate the intensity of the ego's drive for | vengeance on the past. It is completely savage and completely insane. |

| Tx:16.74 | awareness is that the special relationship is the acting out of | vengeance on yourself. But what else could it be? In seeking the |

| Tx:16.75 | is the opposite of the ego's fixed belief in salvation through | vengeance for the past. In the holy instant, it is accepted that the |
| Tx:16.75 | accepted that the past is gone, and with its passing the drive for | vengeance has been uprooted and has disappeared. The stillness and |

| Tx:17.59 | or not the ego likes it—is it acceptable, or does it call for | vengeance? The absence of a criterion for outcome set in advance |
| Tx:18.53 | love? Would you not welcome and support the shift from fantasies of | vengeance to release from them? Your perception of the body can |
| Tx:18.54 | you? You have identified with this thing you hate, the instrument of | vengeance and the perceived source of your guilt. You have done this |
| Tx:18.55 | an abode which harbors hate and where you have sown the seeds of | vengeance, violence, and death. This thing you made to serve your |

| Tx:18.88 | all the twisted thoughts, all the insane attacks, the fury, | vengeance, and betrayal that were made to keep the guilt in place, so |
| Tx:19.95 | appeal of guilt, the “holy” waxen image of death, and the fear of | vengeance of the ego you swore in blood not to desert, all rise and |
| Tx:21.71 | him. They join the army of the powerless, to wage their war of | vengeance, bitterness, and spite on him to make him one with them. |
| Tx:23.26 | can be no release and no escape. Atonement thus becomes a myth, and | vengeance, not forgiveness, is the Will of God. From where all this |

| Tx:25.43 | himself for his mistakes than damn another. He is not an arbiter of | vengeance nor a punisher of sin. The kindness of his sight rests on |

| Tx:9.78 | in a Son of God; a sick god, self-created, self-sufficient, very | vicious, and very vulnerable. Is this the idol you would worship? Is |
| Tx:19.51 | search of guilt, for they are kept cold and starving and made very | vicious by their master, who allows them to feast only upon what they |

| Tx:9.42 | of you. This is when it will shift abruptly from suspiciousness to | viciousness, since its uncertainty is increased. Yet it is surely |

| Tx:15.105 | and deprived. And so long will you also perceive yourself as a | victim of sacrifice, justified in sacrificing others. For who could |

| Tx:25.66 | to “atone” for all that you would keep and not give up. So is the | victim seen as partly you, with someone else by far the greater part. |
| Tx:27.23 | you think are yours in someone else. And thus does he become your | victim, not your brother, different from you in that he is more |
| Tx:27.62 | himself attacked unjustly and by something not himself. He is the | victim of this “something else,” a thing outside himself for which he |

| Tx:27.69 | choose to waken from a dream he did not make. Helpless he stands, a | victim to a dream conceived and cherished by a separate mind. |
| Tx:27.74 | in which the choice is not who is the murderer and who shall be the | victim. In the dreams He brings, there is no murder and there is no |

| Tx:28.26 | because they show the mind made sickness and employed the body to be | victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not teach |
| Tx:28.54 | to be competitive. It can be victimized but cannot feel itself as | victim. It accepts no role but does what it is told, without attack. |

| W1:153.5 | of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of God as but a | victim to attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by illusions he has |

| Tx:23.8 | death of God, if it were possible, would be your death. Is this a | victory? The ego always marches to defeat because it thinks that |

| Tx:25.65 | defined without insanity where love means hate and death is seen as | victory and triumph over eternity and timelessness and life? |

| Tx:3.68 | in this position, it is in one sense more tenable than the | view that they created themselves. At least it acknowledges the fact |

| Tx:26.88 | of the temptation to perceive yourself unfairly treated. In this | view, you seek to find an innocence which is not Theirs but yours |
| Tx:27.12 | of what it represents. This leaves no space in which a different | view, another purpose, can be given it. You do not know its purpose. |
| Tx:27.25 | it really is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a necessary | view of function split between the two. And what you would correct is |
| Tx:27.36 | in different ways. And what would be an answer from one point of | view is not an answer in another light. You are in conflict. Thus it |
| Tx:27.38 | not ask a question to be answered, but only to restate its point of | view. All questions asked within this world are but a way of looking, |
| Tx:28.29 | not perceived as sick by both your minds, from separate points of | view. Uniting with a brother's mind prevents the cause of sickness |

| Tx:6.88 | As long as you must be | vigilant against anything, however, you are not recognizing this |
| Tx:6.91 | accomplishment is not apparent to you. This is why you must be | vigilant on God's behalf. The ego speaks against His creation and |

| Tx:5.39 | Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the Holy Spirit sees. This | vision invariably frightens the ego because it is so calm. Peace is |
| Tx:9.89 | willing to see it as it is. You will see nothing at all. And your | vision will automatically look beyond it to what is in you and all |
| Tx:11.22 | what you will really see. You cannot lay aside the obstacle to real | vision without looking upon it, for to lay aside means to judge |
| Tx:11.35 | to this altar, for it is the altar to truth. There you will see your | vision changed, and there you will learn to see truly. From this |
| Tx:11.56 | Holy Spirit's mission, for He knows that they have not lost their | vision but merely sleep. He would awaken them from the sleep of |
| Tx:11.56 | and He will look upon whatever you see with love if you accept His | vision as yours. |
| Tx:11.57 | The Holy Spirit keeps the | vision of Christ for every Son of God who sleeps. In His sight the |
| Tx:11.57 | In His sight the Son of God is perfect, and He longs to share His | vision with you. He will show you the real world because God gave you |
| Tx:11.80 | cannot lose it. A Voice will answer every question you ask, and a | Vision will correct the perception of everything you see. For what |
| Tx:11.82 | not see it. Yet what He does see is yours to behold, and through His | vision your perception is healed. You have made the invisible the |
| Tx:11.82 | between your awareness and truth. God's Son can be seen because his | vision is shared. The Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees nothing |
| Tx:12.17 | Here is both his pain and his healing, for the Holy Spirit's | vision is merciful, and His remedy is quick. Do not hide suffering |
| Tx:12.38 | do not hear, for you are preoccupied with your own voice. And the | vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you look upon yourself |
| Tx:12.41 | Vision depends on light, and you cannot see in darkness. Yet in the | |
| Tx:12.41 | made you will no longer see, for sight of it depends upon denying | vision. Yet from denying vision, it does not follow that you cannot |
| Tx:12.41 | see, for sight of it depends upon denying vision. Yet from denying | vision, it does not follow that you cannot see. But this is what |
| Tx:12.42 | Do not seek | vision through your eyes, for you made your way of seeing that you |
| Tx:12.42 | are deceived. Beyond this darkness and yet still within you is the | vision of Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your vision comes from |
| Tx:12.42 | within you is the vision of Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your | vision comes from fear, as His from love. And He sees for you as your |
| Tx:12.43 | different worlds arise from their different visions. See through the | vision that is given you, for through Christ's vision He beholds |
| Tx:12.43 | See through the vision that is given you, for through Christ's | vision He beholds Himself. And seeing what He is, He knows His |
| Tx:12.43 | by your dreams. And this you will see as you look with Him, for His | vision is His gift of love to you, given Him of the Father for you. |
| Tx:12.44 | darkness the Christ in them and recognized Him. In the sanity of His | vision, they looked upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as |
| Tx:12.44 | love, seeing themselves as the Holy Spirit sees them. And with this | vision of the truth in them came all the beauty of the world to shine |
| Tx:12.51 | to accept the light that is offered you. For the light of perfect | vision is freely given as it is freely received and can be accepted |
| Tx:12.57 | to be his Father's witness and his own. Although he slept, Christ's | vision did not leave him. And so it is that he can call unto himself |
| Tx:12.60 | must be denied, for sight of it is costing you a different kind of | vision. You cannot see both worlds, for each of them involves a |
| Tx:12.63 | From such a twisted reference point what could you see? All | vision starts with the perceiver who judges what is true and what is |
| Tx:12.64 | him. Yet while he still lays value on his own, he will deny the | vision of the other world, maintaining that he loves what he loves |
| Tx:13.2 | Heaven. Perception can reach everywhere under His guidance, for the | vision of Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no perception, |
| Tx:13.4 | His message speaks of timelessness in time, and that is why Christ's | vision looks on everything with love. Yet even Christ's vision is not |
| Tx:13.4 | why Christ's vision looks on everything with love. Yet even Christ's | vision is not His reality. The golden aspects of reality which spring |
| Tx:13.5 | to see. For light must come into the darkened world to make Christ's | vision possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all |
| Tx:13.6 | holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his Father. Christ's | vision is His gift to you. His Being is His Father's gift to Him. |
| Tx:13.28 | lovely truth in you. Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your | vision, and look past darkness to the holy place where you will see |
| Tx:13.29 | only illusions. All else He would have you see. And in Christ's | vision, He would show you the perfect purity that is forever within |
| Tx:13.63 | in you will waken them, and they will not leave you asleep. The | vision of Christ is given the very instant that it is perceived. |
| Tx:14.30 | He sees for you, and unless you look with Him, He cannot see. The | vision of Christ is not for Him alone but for Him with you. Bring, |
| Tx:14.31 | show you that all meaning, including yours, comes not from double | vision but from the gentle fusing of everything into one meaning, one |
| Tx:14.31 | purpose. God has one purpose which He shares with you. The single | vision which the Holy Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to |
| 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:15.85 | of your brothers to the body, so would the Holy Spirit release your | vision and let you see the Great Rays shining from them, so unlimited |
| Tx:15.85 | from them, so unlimited that they reach to God. It is this shift in | vision which is accomplished in the holy instant. Yet it is needful |
| Tx:15.88 | representing its demands to make little and ineffectual. Limit your | vision of a brother to his body, which you will do as long as you |
| Tx:15.90 | Seek not Atonement in further separation. And limit not your | vision of God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the |
| Tx:17.12 | the world with forgiving eyes. For forgiveness literally transforms | vision and lets you see the real world reaching quietly and gently |
| Tx:18.86 | and the lifelessness are seen only through the body's eyes. Its | vision is distorted, and the messages it transmits to you who made it |
| Tx:19.2 | your ego would make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this | vision does the Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has |
| Tx:19.28 | clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this you share His | vision. Yet you do not share His recognition of the difference |
| Tx:19.35 | before your holy sight, for you who were sightless have been given | vision, and you can see. Look not for what has been removed but for |
| Tx:20.9 | who accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as their own share also His | vision. And what enables Him to see His purpose shine forth from |
| Tx:20.10 | can you use what I have given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's | vision is no idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about a while and |
| Tx:20.11 | You have the | vision now to look past all illusions. It has been given you to see |
| Tx:20.11 | upon illusions, knowing his savior stands beside him? With him, your | vision has become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that |
| 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 | be to you the savior from illusions, and look on him with the new | vision that looks upon the lilies and brings you joy. We go beyond |
| Tx:20.15 | your savior and your friend, released from crucifixion through your | vision and free to lead you now where he would be. He will not leave |
| Tx:20.40 | through him. What is in him will shine so brightly in your grateful | vision that you will merely love him and be glad. You will not think |
| Tx:20.40 | still has meaning? For this insistence is of those who do not see. | Vision or judgment is your choice, but never both of these. |
| Tx:20.43 | both of you will offer and receive it for you both. And through His | vision will you see it, and through His understanding recognize it |
| Tx:20.62 | the means remain unquestioned while the end is cherished. | Vision adapts to wish, for sight is always secondary to desire. And |
| Tx:20.62 | to desire. And if you see the body, you have chosen judgment and not | vision. For vision, like relationships, has no order. You either see |
| Tx:20.62 | if you see the body, you have chosen judgment and not vision. For | vision, like relationships, has no order. You either see or not. |
| Tx:20.64 | There is indeed a difference between this vain imagining and | vision. The difference lies not in them, but in their purpose. Both |
| Tx:20.65 | except through judgment. To see the body is the sign that you lack | vision and have denied the means the Holy Spirit offers you to serve |
| Tx:20.65 | its purpose through the means of sin? Judgment you taught yourself; | vision is learned from Him Who would undo your teaching. His vision |
| Tx:20.65 | vision is learned from Him Who would undo your teaching. His | vision cannot see the body because it cannot look on sin. And thus it |
| Tx:20.66 | escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's goal. The means is | vision. For what the seeing look upon is sinless. No one who loves |
| Tx:20.66 | he sees he did not make, for it was given him to see, as was the | vision which made his seeing possible. |
| Tx:20.67 | Vision will come to you at first in glimpses, but they will be enough | |
| Tx:20.67 | what was never lost will quietly return. It has been saved for you. | Vision would not be necessary had judgment not been made. Desire now |
| Tx:20.68 | All this is given, waiting on your desire but to receive it. | Vision is freely given to those who ask to see. |
| Tx:20.69 | is given you in shining light, to look on with the Holy Spirit's | vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will come to all |
| Tx:20.69 | then, to see your brother sinless that Christ may rise before your | vision and give you joy. And place no value on your brother's body, |
| Tx:20.70 | and gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose now, and the | vision that makes it yours is ready to be given. You have the vision |
| Tx:20.70 | the vision that makes it yours is ready to be given. You have the | vision which enables each one to see the body not. And as you look |
| Tx:20.71 | There is no problem, no event or situation, no perplexity that | vision will not solve. All is redeemed when looked upon with vision. |
| Tx:20.71 | that vision will not solve. All is redeemed when looked upon with | vision. For this is not your sight, and brings with it the laws |
| Tx:20.72 | Everything looked upon with | vision falls gently into place according to the laws brought to it by |
| Tx:20.73 | means to play the idle game of death in your imagination. But | vision sets all things right, bringing them gently within the kindly |
| Tx:20.76 | saw within; or better, if you saw at all or merely judged against. | Vision is the means by which the Holy Spirit translates your |
| Tx:20.77 | that never waste away, who need persuade you to accept the gift of | vision? And after vision, who is there who could refuse what must |
| Tx:20.77 | away, who need persuade you to accept the gift of vision? And after | vision, who is there who could refuse what must come after? Think but |
| Tx:21.1 | difficulty in miracles is meaningless. Everything looked upon with | vision is healed and holy. Nothing perceived without it means |
| Tx:21.4 | which to light. Judgment will always give you false directions, but | vision shows you where to go. Why should you guess? |
| Tx:21.5 | are not happy learners yet because you still remain uncertain that | vision gives you more than judgment does, and you have learned that |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the | vision of the Son of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of |
| Tx:21.11 | and joined to all as surely as all is joined in you. Accept the | vision which can show you this and not the body. You know the ancient |
| Tx:21.12 | not withstand the memory of this song. And they will look upon the | vision of the Son of God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is |
| Tx:21.14 | This is the only thing that you need do for | vision, happiness, release from pain, and the complete escape from |
| Tx:21.22 | The Holy Spirit can give you faith in holiness and | vision to see it easily enough. But you have not left open and |
| Tx:21.23 | an instant of creation but of recognition. For recognition comes of | vision and suspended judgment. Then only is it possible to look |
| Tx:21.25 | When | vision is denied, confusion of cause and effect becomes inevitable. |
| Tx:21.32 | Faith and belief and | vision are the means by which the goal of holiness is reached. |
| Tx:21.32 | He reminds you there is but one. His faith and His belief and | vision are all for you. And when you have accepted them completely |
| Tx:21.32 | of yours, you will have need of them no longer. For faith and | vision and belief are meaningful only before the state of certainty |
| Tx:21.34 | The Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the | vision of a holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief become attached to | vision, as all the means that once served sin are redirected now |
| Tx:21.36 | the power of belief and faith goes far beyond the body, supporting | vision, not obstructing it. But first they chose to recognize how |
| Tx:21.36 | born of faith. For all who choose to look away from sin are given | vision and are led to holiness. |
| Tx:21.40 | to sin, and in the darkness so it still is seen. Yet in the light of | vision, it is looked upon quite differently. You can have faith in it |
| Tx:21.51 | There is another | vision and another Voice in which your freedom lies awaiting but your |
| Tx:21.58 | lead to changed perception. And in this change is room made way for | vision. Vision extends beyond itself, as does the purpose which it |

| Tx:21.84 | Joy cannot be perceived except through constant vision. And constant | vision can be given only those who wish for constancy. The power of |

| Tx:22.4 | to sameness. [And here is sight of differences transformed to | vision.] And reason now can lead you to the logical conclusion of |
| Tx:22.6 | eyes which are not yours must make no sense to you. To whom would | vision such as this send back its messages? Surely not you, whose |
| Tx:22.6 | of the eyes which look upon the world. If this is not your | vision, what can it show to you? The brain cannot interpret what your |
| Tx:22.6 | what can it show to you? The brain cannot interpret what your | vision sees. This you would understand. The brain interprets to the |
| Tx:22.7 | else” which sees, and as not you, explains its sight to you. Your | vision would, of course, render this quite unnecessary. Yet if your |
| Tx:22.9 | You will perceive no difficulty in understanding what this | vision tells you, for everyone sees only what he thinks he is. And |
| Tx:22.9 | show you, you will understand because it is the truth. Only your | vision can convey to you what you can see. It reaches you directly |
| Tx:22.11 | is like a baby now in its rebirth. Yet in this infant is your | vision returned to you, and he will speak the language both of you |
| Tx:22.11 | yourself. For no two people can unite except through Christ, Whose | vision sees them one. |
| Tx:22.13 | Reason will tell you that they must have seen each other through a | vision not of the body and communicated in a language the body does |
| Tx:22.20 | that it is impossible for you to see no guilt in anyone. And if this | vision is the only means by which escape from guilt can be attained, |
| Tx:22.23 | Heaven with. A savior cannot be a judge, nor mercy condemnation. And | vision cannot damn, but only bless. Whose function is to save will |
| Tx:22.27 | For at its center Christ has been reborn to light His home with | vision that overlooks the world. Would you not have this holy home be |
| Tx:22.28 | All you need do to dwell in quiet here with Christ is share His | vision. Quickly and gladly is His vision given to anyone who is but |
| Tx:22.28 | here with Christ is share His vision. Quickly and gladly is His | vision given to anyone who is but willing to see his brother sinless. |
| Tx:22.29 | reason. This is not a play on words, for here is the beginning of a | vision that has meaning. Vision is sense, quite literally. If it is |

| Tx:23.44 | that you lose sight of it? It can be kept shining before your | vision, forever clear and never out of sight if you defend it not. |
| Tx:24.16 | from love, which does not see his specialness at all. Christ's | vision is their “enemy,” for it sees not what they would look upon, |
| Tx:24.46 | own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in Himself. He gives them | vision for their sightless eyes and sings to them of Heaven that |
| Tx:24.54 | him, and you as well. And let the fear of God no longer hold the | vision you were meant to see from you. Your brother's body shows not |
| Tx:25.19 | to behold in him what he sees not. And in this seeing is the | vision shared that looks on Christ instead of seeing death. |
| Tx:25.30 | too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change. But on His | vision sin cannot encroach, for sin has been corrected by His sight. |
| Tx:25.34 | to look upon and where their hearts are glad. In you there is a | vision which extends to all of them and covers them in gentleness and |
| Tx:31.62 | false, for what is real denies its opposite. There is no choice in | vision but this one. What you decide in this determines all you see |
| Tx:31.66 | would be impossible. But concepts are not difficult to change. One | vision, clearly seen, that does not fit the picture as it was |
| Tx:31.74 | on them as through a barrier which dims your sight and warps your | vision, so that you behold nothing with clarity. The light is kept |
| Tx:31.74 | fear is hell. All that is given you is for release—the sight, the | vision, and the inner Guide all lead you out of hell with those you |
| Tx:31.75 | and what he looks upon to judge what he beholds. And in this single | vision does he see the face of Christ and understands he looks on |
| Tx:31.78 | upon that he may be what they expect of him. This is the savior's | vision—that he see his innocence in all he looks upon and sees his |
| Tx:31.79 | the likeness of the self whose image has the wish begot of you. For | vision can but represent a wish, because it has no power to create. |
| Tx:31.80 | The savior's | vision is as innocent of what your brother is as it is free of any |
| Tx:31.80 | of old ideas and ancient concepts held so long and dear against the | vision of the Christ in you. |
| Tx:31.82 | light, for it is dark indeed, and men despair because the savior's | vision is withheld, and what they see is death. Their savior stands, |
| Tx:31.93 | it is but a step from there to Heaven. To your tired eyes I bring a | vision of a different world, so new and clean and fresh you will |
| Tx:31.93 | you will forget the pain and sorrow that you saw before. Yet this a | vision is which you must share with everyone you see, for otherwise |
| W1:8.3 | is filled with real ideas, is the first step to opening the way to | vision. |
| W1:10.3 | when you think you see it. As such, it is the prerequisite for | vision. |
| W1:15.1 | seeing. It is image-making. It takes the place of seeing, replacing | vision with illusions. |
| W1:15.2 | familiar objects which you see now. That is the beginning of real | vision. You can be certain that real vision will come quickly when |
| W1:15.2 | That is the beginning of real vision. You can be certain that real | vision will come quickly when this has occurred. |
| W1:20.3 | Your decision to see is all that | vision requires. What you want is yours. Do not mistake the little |
| W1:20.3 | is given him in Heaven and on earth. In your determination to see is | vision given you. |
| W1:23.4 | means, for where is the world you see when its cause is gone? | Vision already holds a replacement for everything you think you see |
| W1:27.1 | idea expresses something stronger than mere determination. It gives | vision priority among your desires. You may feel hesitant about using |
| W1:27.3 | Vision has no cost to anyone. | |
| W1:28.5 | You could, in fact, gain | vision from just that table if you could withdraw all your own ideas |
| W1:29.1 | and all subsequent ones as well. Today's idea is the whole basis for | vision. |
| W1:29.3 | to you. Its holy purpose stands beyond your little range. When | vision has shown you the holiness that lights up the world, you will |
| W1:30.1 | The idea for today is the springboard for | vision. From this idea will the world open up before you, and you |
| W1:30.2 | keeping it apart from us. That is the fundamental difference between | vision and the way you see. |
| W1:30.4 | Real | vision is not limited to concepts such as “near” and “far.” To help |
| W1:30.4 | well as those you can actually see, as you apply today's idea. Real | vision is not only unlimited by space and distance, but it does not |
| W1:35.1 | the way you see yourself now. It does, however, describe what | vision will show you. It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in |
| W1:35.2 | you are in it is seen through the eyes of the image. This is not | vision. Images cannot see. |
| W1:37.1 | nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains through your holy | vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because it offers everyone |
| W1:37.2 | losing. Yet is his wholeness restored to his awareness through your | vision. Your holiness blesses him by asking nothing of him. Those who |
| W1:39.7 | And it is your blessing on them that will save you and give you | vision. |
| W1:42.1 | power. And it is His gift to you, rather than your own, which offers | vision to you. |
| W1:42.5 | Vision must be possible. God gives truly; or, | |
| W1:43.3 | do in Him because whatever you think, you think with His Mind. If | vision is real, and it is real to the extent to which it shares the |
| W1:44.2 | the light that makes seeing possible. It is with you always, making | vision possible in every circumstance. |
| W1:45.1 | you think, just as nothing that you think you see is related to | vision in any way. There is no relationship between what is real and |
| W1:45.1 | Nothing that you think you see bears any resemblance to what | vision will show you. |
| W1:51.2 | I may learn to see. What I think I see now is taking the place of | vision. I must let it go by realizing that it has no meaning so that |
| W1:51.2 | vision. I must let it go by realizing that it has no meaning so that | vision may take its place. |
| W1:51.3 | I look upon. And it is this and only this that I see. This is not | vision. It is merely an illusion of reality, because my judgments |
| W1:52.5 | it is whether to see or not. What I have chosen to see has cost me | vision. Now I would choose again that I may see. |
| W1:56.3 | that what I see reflects what I think I am, I realize that | vision is my greatest need. The world I see attests to the fearful |
| W1:56.3 | that I let this image of myself go. As it is replaced by truth, | vision will surely be given me. And with this vision, I will look |
| W1:56.3 | is replaced by truth, vision will surely be given me. And with this | vision, I will look upon the world and upon myself with charity and |
| W1:59.3 | [42] God is my strength. | Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own eyes to see today. Let |
| W1:59.3 | Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful illusion of seeing for the | vision that is given by God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has |
| W1:59.3 | illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by God. Christ's | vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this |
| W1:59.4 | is these I choose when I try to see through the body's eyes. Yet the | vision of Christ has been given me to replace them. It is through |
| W1:59.4 | of Christ has been given me to replace them. It is through this | vision that I choose to see. |
| W1:59.5 | to understand that God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome | vision and the happy world it will show me. |
| W1:60.6 | me that His Son is sinless. And as I look upon the world with the | vision He has given me, I remember that I am His Son. |
| W1:75.9 | Realize that your forgiveness entitles you to | vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift |
| W1:75.9 | will be with you as you watch and wait. He will show you what true | vision sees. It is His Will, and you have joined with Him. Wait |
| W1:75.15 | and see it everywhere today, as we celebrate the beginning of your | vision and the sight of the real world which has come to replace the |
| W1:85.2 | the light. Grievances and light cannot go together, but light and | vision must be joined for me to see. To see, I must lay grievances |
| W1:91.1 | It is important to remember that miracles and | vision necessarily go together. This needs repeating and frequent |
| W1:91.1 | The miracle is always there. Its presence is not caused by your | vision; its absence is not the result of your failure to see. It is |
| W1:100.5 | 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 instead |
| W1:108.1 | Vision depends upon today's idea. The light is in it, for it | |
| W1:108.2 | True light which makes true | vision possible is not the light the body's eyes behold. It is a |
| W1:108.3 | This is the light which shows no opposites, and | vision, being healed, has power to heal. This is the light that |
| W1:108.6 | behind it can be generalized to other areas of doubt and double | vision. And from there it will extend and finally arrive at the one |
| W1:108.7 | peace returns to us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is | vision given us and we can see. |
| W1:109.2 | This thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose | vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth in everyone and |
| W1:110.2 | need to let complete correction heal your mind and give you perfect | vision which will heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any |
| W1:125.9 | today lift you above the thinking of the world and free your | vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You will hear |
| W1:133.10 | hidden goals. And though he tries to keep its halo clear within his | vision, yet must he perceive its tarnished edges and its rusted core. |
| W1:151.10 | you have placed in pain, disaster, suffering, and loss. He gives you | vision which can look beyond these grim appearances and can behold |
| W1:157.5 | fingertips to those you touch and blesses those you look upon. A | vision reaches everyone you meet, and everyone you think of, or who |
| W1:157.6 | will be sanctified today, its only purpose being now to bring the | vision of what you experience this day to light the world. We cannot |
| W1:157.6 | world. We cannot give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a | vision in our eyes which we can offer everyone that he may come the |
| W1:157.7 | And you who bring it light will come to see the light more sure, the | vision more distinct. |
| W1:157.9 | unaware of everything except His shining face and perfect Love. The | vision of His face will stay with you, but there will be an instant |
| W1:157.9 | stay with you, but there will be an instant which transcends all | vision, even this, the holiest. This you will never teach, for you |
| W1:157.9 | will never teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the | vision speaks of your remembrance of what you knew that instant and |
| W1:158.2 | in the text. Experience cannot be shared directly in the way that | vision can. The revelation that the Father and the Son are one will |
| W1:158.5 | not learn it. It revealed itself to him at its appointed time. But | vision is his gift. This he can give directly, for Christ's knowledge |
| W1:158.5 | give directly, for Christ's knowledge is not lost because He has a | vision He can give to anyone who asks. The Father's Will and His are |
| W1:158.5 | The Father's Will and His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a | vision which the Holy Spirit sees because the mind of Christ beholds |
| W1:158.6 | what needs to be accomplished. Our concern is with Christ's | vision. This we can attain. |
| W1:158.7 | Christ's | vision has one law. It does not look upon a body and mistake it for |
| W1:158.9 | Thus are his sins forgiven him, for Christ has | vision which has power to overlook them all. In His forgiveness, they |
| W1:158.9 | they are gone. Unseen by One, they merely disappear because a | vision of the holiness which lies beyond them comes to take their |
| W1:158.10 | Thus do you learn to give as you receive. And thus Christ's | vision looks on you as well. This lesson is not difficult to learn if |
| W1:158.10 | brother whom you meet today provides another chance to let Christ's | vision shine on you and offer you the peace of God. |
| W1:158.11 | the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's | vision looks upon ourselves as well. |
| W1:159.3 | Christ's | vision is a miracle. It comes from far beyond itself, for it reflects |
| W1:159.3 | rebirth of love which never died but has been kept obscure. Christ's | vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that |
| W1:159.4 | Christ's | vision is the miracle in which all miracles are born. It is their |
| W1:159.5 | Christ's | vision is the bridge between the worlds. And in its power can you |
| W1:159.5 | the light that shines beyond them. Holiness has been restored to | vision, and the blind can see. |
| W1:159.8 | Christ's | vision is the holy ground in which the lilies of forgiveness set |
| W1:159.10 | Let us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His | vision gives the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting |
| W1:160.9 | Christ has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His | vision sees no strangers, but beholds His own and joyously unites |
| W1:161.6 | body, for its sight presents the symbol of love's “enemy” Christ's | vision does not see. The body is the target for attack, for no one |
| W1:161.9 | love, and God created perfect. This is his reality. And in Christ's | vision is his loveliness reflected in a form so holy and so beautiful |
| W1:161.11 | readiness is closer now, and you will come today nearer Christ's | vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you will succeed today. And |
| W1:162.4 | sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to think with God. Christ's | vision has restored your sight by salvaging your mind. |
| W1:164.6 | Brothers, this day is sacred to the world. Your | vision, given you from far beyond all things within the world, looks |
| W1:164.8 | looks on us and offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving | vision, now our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely |
| W1:164.9 | Is not this purpose worthy to be yours? Is not Christ's | vision worthy to be sought above the world's unsatisfying goals? Let |
| W1:165.5 | What would induce you now to let it fade away from your ecstatic | vision? For this sight proves that you have exchanged your blindness |
| W1:166.11 | answered, and the sight that looked upon it now has been replaced by | vision which perceives that you are not what you pretend to be. One |
| W1:167.12 | thing reflected and the light which makes reflection possible. No | vision now is needed. For the wakened mind is one that knows its |
| W1:168.4 | Him now to give the means by which this world will disappear, and | vision first will come with knowledge but an instant later. For in |
| W1:170.12 | by its weight; beheld not in its sightless eyes but in the | vision that your choice restored to you. |
| W1:I2.2 | horizons and direct approaches to the special blocks which keep your | vision narrow and too limited to let you see the value of our goal. |
| W1:181.2 | but this focus, and what you behold will change accordingly. Your | vision now will shift to give support to the intent which has |
| W1:181.8 | seek for long range goals. As each obstruction seems to block the | vision of our sinlessness, we seek but for surcease an instant from |
| W1:184.4 | This is the way reality is made by partial | vision, purposefully set against the given truth. Its enemy is |
| W1:184.4 | things and looks upon them. And a lack of space, a sense of unity or | vision which sees differently become the threats which it must |
| W1:184.5 | Yet does this other | vision still remain a natural direction for the mind to channel its |
| W1:188.2 | he beholds in him? It is not difficult to look within, for there all | vision starts. There is no sight, be it of dreams or from a truer |
| W1:188.2 | truer source, that is not but the shadow of the seen through inward | vision. There perception starts, and there it ends. It has no source |
| W1:188.3 | and valueless. It brings renewal to all tired hearts and lights all | vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and |
| W1:188.5 | In quietness is it acknowledged universally. For what your inward | vision looks upon is your perception of the universe. |
| W1:192.6 | With anger gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's | vision and the gift of sight no sacrifice was asked, and only pain |
| W1:193.2 | he has a need for One Who can correct his erring sight and give him | vision that will lead him back to where perception ceases. God does |
| W1:198.14 | the Son is to perceive no more and only know the Father? In this | vision of the Son, so brief that not an instant stands between this |
| W1:198.14 | between this single sight and timelessness itself, you see the | vision of yourself and then you disappear forever into God. |
| W1:198.15 | nearer to 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 |
| W1:218.1 | [198] Only my condemnation injures me. My condemnation keeps my | vision dark, and through my sightless eyes I cannot see the vision of |
| W1:218.1 | keeps my vision dark, and through my sightless eyes I cannot see the | vision of my glory. Yet today I can behold this glory and be glad. I |
| W2:I.6 | Accept these little gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's | vision we behold a world beyond the one we made and take that world |
| W2:247.1 | I will suffer. For forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ's | vision comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the |
| W2:260.1 | my Identity. And let my sinlessness arise again before Christ's | vision, through which I would look upon my brothers and myself today. |
| W2:263.2 | outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy | vision and the eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to us |
| W2:269.2 | Today our sight is blessed indeed. We share one | vision as we look upon the face of Him Whose Self is ours. We are one |
| W2:270.1 | Father, Christ's | vision is Your gift to me, and it has power to translate all that the |
| W2:271.2 | Father, Christ's | vision is the way to You. What He beholds invites Your memory to be |
| W2:290.1 | see. Eyes that begin to open see at last. And I would have Christ's | vision come to me this very day. What I perceive without God's own |
| W2:291.1 | Christ's | vision looks through me today. His sight shows me all things forgiven |
| W2:291.1 | sight shows me all things forgiven and at peace and offers this same | vision to the world. And I accept this vision in its name, both for |
| W2:291.1 | at peace and offers this same vision to the world. And I accept this | vision in its name, both for myself and for the world as well. What |
| W2:302.1 | our own imagining and light is there for us to look upon. Christ's | vision changes darkness into light, for fear must disappear when love |
| W2:304.1 | Nor can I behold the holy sights Christ looks upon unless it is His | vision that I use. Perception is a mirror, not a fact. And what I |
| W2:305.1 | Who uses but Christ's | vision finds a peace so deep and quiet, undisturbable and wholly |
| W2:306.1 | What but Christ's | vision would I use today when it can offer me a day in which I see a |
| W2:312.1 | Having judged, you therefore see what you would look upon. For | vision merely serves to offer you what you would have. It is |
| W2:313.1 | Father, there is a | vision which beholds all things as sinless, so that fear has gone and |
| W2:313.1 | is love invited in. And love will come wherever it is asked. This | vision is Your gift. The eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In |
| W2:313.2 | 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. |
| W2:340.1 | is done. For he will hear Your Voice directing him to find Christ's | vision through forgiveness and be free forever from all suffering. |

| Tx:5.80 | built it. The case may be foolproof, but it is not God-proof. The | Voice for God will not hear it at all because He can only witness |
| Tx:5.81 | is that of our Father, from Whom I learned of infinite patience. His | Voice was in me as it is in you, speaking for patience towards the |
| Tx:5.85 | nature of the Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal | Voice. The Holy Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you really believe you can make a | voice that can drown out His? Do you really believe that you can |
| Tx:5.90 | He careth for you. You are His care because He loves you. His | Voice reminds you always that all hope is yours because of His care. |
| Tx:5.92 | insane calls which you think are made upon you when you know the | Voice of God Himself is in you? God commended His Spirit to you and |
| Tx:6.11 | am sorry when my brothers do not share my decision to hear only one | voice, because it weakens them as teachers and as learners. Yet I |
| Tx:6.14 | When you hear only one | voice, you are never called on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by |
| Tx:6.16 | God the Father and His separated Sons. If you will listen to His | Voice, you will know that you cannot either hurt or be hurt and that |
| Tx:6.28 | because its abilities are directed by the mind which has a better | Voice. The Holy Spirit as well as the ego utilizes projection, but |
| Tx:6.56 | A harsh and strident form of communication arose as the ego's | voice. It could not shatter the peace of God, but it could shatter |
| Tx:6.58 | How can you wake children better and more kindly than by a gentle | Voice that will not frighten them but will merely remind them that |
| Tx:6.74 | the thinker. Meanwhile, the increasing clarity of the Holy Spirit's | Voice makes it impossible for the learner not to listen. For a time, |
| Tx:6.75 | it. Yet you do want peace, or you would not have called upon the | Voice for Peace to help you. His lesson is not insane; the conflict |
| Tx:6.76 | The ego tries to persuade you that it is up to you to decide which | voice is true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created |
| Tx:6.76 | it. As you begin to realize the quiet power of the Holy Spirit's | Voice and its perfect consistency, it must dawn on your minds that |
| Tx:6.91 | creations are beyond belief, because they are beyond question. The | Voice for God speaks only for belief beyond question, which is the |
| Tx:7.32 | this is possible is to believe you can do it. This can only be the | voice of the ego. |
| Tx:7.33 | come from the same Source, [because] inspiration comes from the | Voice for God, and certainty comes from the laws of God. Healing does |
| Tx:7.33 | Yet healing is [nevertheless] of God, because it proceeds from His | Voice and from His laws. It is their result, in a state of mind which |
| Tx:7.46 | real. Healing can be counted on, because it is inspired by His | Voice and is in accord with His laws. Yet if healing is consistence, |
| Tx:7.65 | belief that you accept which is apart from this will obscure God's | Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to you. Unless you |
| Tx:7.105 | for you by the Will of God, Who has not left you comfortless. His | Voice will teach you how to distinguish between pain and joy and will |
| Tx:8.3 | The ego's | voice is an hallucination. You cannot expect it to say, “I am not |
| Tx:8.10 | never God who coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His | Voice teaches only His Will, but that is not the Holy Spirit's lesson |
| Tx:8.15 | call of God. This is the natural response of every Son of God to the | Voice of his Creator, because it is the Voice for his creations and |
| Tx:8.15 | of every Son of God to the Voice of his Creator, because it is the | Voice for his creations and for his own extension. |
| Tx:8.28 | My will is His, and your will to hear me is the decision to hear His | Voice and abide in His Will. As God sent me to you, so will I send |
| Tx:8.41 | illusions of another direction can obscure the one for which God's | Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the ego the power to |
| Tx:8.57 | Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His | Voice, which He has established as part of you. |
| Tx:8.61 | In this sense, the body does become a temple to God, because His | Voice abides in it by directing the use to which it is put. |
| Tx:8.78 | You might well ask how the | voice of something which does not exist can be so insistent. Have you |
| Tx:8.78 | When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. The Holy Spirit's | Voice is as loud as your willingness to listen. It cannot be louder |
| Tx:8.79 | the guidance of the one Teacher Who knows what life is, being the | Voice for Life Itself. |
| Tx:8.111 | you receive. Remember that the Holy Spirit is in him, and His | Voice speaks to you through him. What can so holy a brother tell you |
| Tx:8.112 | extends from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear the | Voice for God in yourself alone because you are not alone. And His |
| Tx:8.112 | be for your brother because it is for you. Would God have created a | Voice for you alone? Could you hear His answer except as He answers |
| Tx:8.113 | me through you. If you would hear me, hear my brothers in whom God's | Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies in them. You will be |
| Tx:9.57 | your eternal place merely waits for your return. God, through His | Voice, reminds you of it, and God Himself keeps your extensions safe |
| Tx:9.69 | in the way of your remembering, for God is in your memory, and His | Voice will tell you that you are part of Him when you are willing to |
| Tx:9.84 | find peace. And this altar is in you, because God put it there. His | Voice still calls you to return, and He will be heard when you place |
| Tx:9.91 | Because the miracle worker has heard Him, he strengthens His | Voice in a sick brother by weakening his belief in sickness, which he |
| Tx:10.15 | to trust the Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the | Voice for God, but never forget that God did not will to be alone. He |
| Tx:10.19 | wants to make whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the | Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable |
| Tx:10.20 | because He will not be heard. The Eternal Guest remains, but His | Voice grows faint in alien company. He needs your protection, but |
| Tx:10.35 | enter God's Presence if you attack His Son. When His Son lifts his | voice in praise of his Creator, he will hear the Voice of his Father. |
| Tx:10.35 | His Son lifts his voice in praise of his Creator, he will hear the | Voice of his Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised without His |
| Tx:10.58 | 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:11.75 | teaching. For as long as you feel guilty, you are listening to the | voice of the ego, which tells you that you have been treacherous to |
| Tx:11.80 | placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose it. A | Voice will answer every question you ask, and a Vision will correct |
| Tx:12.38 | 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 look |
| Tx:12.52 | witness to his wholeness, as I am calling you to join with me. Every | voice has a part in the song of redemption, the hymn of gladness and |
| Tx:12.76 | hymn alone. My task is not completed until I have lifted every | voice with mine. And yet it is not mine, for as it is my gift to you, |
| Tx:13.39 | from accomplishment. Whatever your reactions to the Holy Spirit's | Voice may be, whatever voice you choose to listen to, whatever |
| Tx:13.39 | Whatever your reactions to the Holy Spirit's Voice may be, whatever | voice you choose to listen to, whatever strange thoughts may occur to |
| Tx:13.41 | it breaks communication with you with whom He would communicate. His | voice will be heard. |
| Tx:14.71 | His Oneness and His Son's. Listen in silence, and do not raise your | voice against Him. For He teaches the miracle of oneness, and before |
| Tx:15.6 | to take the life of someone who hears it temporarily as the only | voice, it speaks of hell even to him. For it tells him hell is here |
| Tx:15.75 | and will be afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing in His | voice your own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot teach |
| Tx:16.18 | and share it], for that is the only reason He has called to you. His | Voice has spoken clearly, and yet you have so little faith in what |
| Tx:19.84 | the light of truth, the answer to the Answer, the silencer of the | Voice that speaks for God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of |
| Tx:19.94 | fear seemed to be holding them in place. Yet when you heard the | voice of love beyond them, you answered and they disappeared. |
| Tx:21.49 | to discover than what you would prefer to overlook. The still small | Voice for God is not drowned out by all the ego's raucous screams and |
| Tx:21.49 | this choice depends far more than you may realize as yet. For on the | voice you choose to hear and on the sights you choose to see, depends |
| Tx:21.51 | There is another vision and another | Voice in which your freedom lies awaiting but your choice. And if you |
| Tx:21.63 | must be joined must be insane. Nor could you see it if you heard the | voice of reason. What can there be that stands between what is |
| Tx:23.42 | lovely and charitable it may seem to be, a blessing and a sign the | Voice for God speaks through you to your brother? The wrapping does |
| Tx:24.15 | before its “mightiness.” You strain your ears to hear its soundless | voice, and yet the Call of God Himself is soundless to you. |
| Tx:24.16 | You can defend your specialness, but never will you hear the | Voice for God beside it. They speak a different language and they |
| Tx:24.53 | all it looks upon. And that is made, not of itself, but through the | Voice that speaks for God in everything that lives and shares His |
| Tx:24.61 | be sure you understand what made this judgment. Here is the | voice of specialness heard clearly, judging against the Christ and |
| Tx:24.62 | deny to what he loves. And while it calls to him, he hears no other | Voice. No effort is too great, no cost too much, no price too dear to |
| Tx:26.29 | with them. For no one hears the song of Heaven and remains without a | voice that adds its power to the song and makes it sweeter still. And |
| Tx:26.29 | magnitude of song in which the universe has joined with but a single | voice. This tiny spot of sin that stands between you still is holding |
| Tx:26.37 | and place affect a change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a | voice that calls out from a past forever more gone by. And everything |
| Tx:26.77 | Think but how holy you must be from whom the | Voice for God calls lovingly unto your brother, that you may awake in |
| Tx:26.77 | God calls lovingly unto your brother, that you may awake in him the | Voice that answers to your call! And think how holy he must be when |
| Tx:27.44 | you. He does not speak to someone else. Yet by your listening, His | Voice extends because you have accepted what He says. |
| Tx:27.54 | Pain demonstrates the body must be real. It is a loud, obscuring | voice whose shrieks would silence what the Holy Spirit says and keep |
| Tx:27.73 | his awaking and allowed his calmer mind to welcome, not to fear, the | Voice that calls with love to waken him. [A gentler dream, in which |
| Tx:28.56 | its acts but not your own. It sees and acts for you. It hears your | voice. And it is frail and little by your wish. It seems to punish |
| Tx:29.33 | abides in him, as it abides in you. Be very still and hear God's | Voice in him and let It tell you what his function is. He was created |
| Tx:29.51 | Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do not seek to drown His | Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not |
| Tx:29.55 | kept apart? What hand could be held up to block God's way? Whose | voice could make demand He enter not? The “more-than-everything” is |
| Tx:30.31 | without some form of union, be it with a dream of judgment or the | Voice for God. Decisions cause results because they are not made in |
| Tx:30.35 | established there. Now hear God speak to you through Him Who is His | Voice and yours as well, reminding you that it is not your will to |
| Tx:31.4 | accomplishment of learning—an enormity so great the Holy Spirit's | Voice seems small and still before its magnitude. The world began |
| Tx:31.5 | Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable before the | Voice of truth and teach you that Its lessons are not true, too hard |
| Tx:31.6 | Is this a little | Voice, so small and still It cannot rise above the senseless noise of |
| Tx:31.6 | willed not His Son forget Him. And the power of His Will is in the | Voice that speaks for Him. Which lesson will you learn? What outcome |
| Tx:31.17 | and you join with him, and in your answer is salvation found. The | voice you hear in him is but your own. What does he ask you for? And |
| Tx:31.17 | will come to you because you see an image of yourself and hear your | voice requesting what you want. |
| Tx:31.21 | and hearing but one answer to them all. Because He hears one | Voice, He cannot hear a different answer from the one He gave when |
| Tx:31.93 | the Christ in him. My brothers in salvation, do not fail to hear my | voice and listen to my words. I ask for nothing but your own release. |
| W1:47.3 | God is your safety in every circumstance. His | Voice speaks for Him in all situations and in every aspect of all |
| W1:47.3 | There are no exceptions because God has no exceptions. And the | Voice Which speaks for Him thinks as He does. |
| W1:49.1 | It is quite possible to listen to God's | Voice all through the day without interrupting your regular |
| W1:49.2 | The part that is listening to the | Voice of God is calm, always at rest, and wholly certain. It is |
| W1:49.2 | your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to hear God's | Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your Creator has not |
| W1:49.3 | periods today and more if possible. We will try actually to hear the | Voice reminding you of God and of your Self. We will approach this |
| W1:49.3 | are joining our will with the Will of God. He wants you to hear His | Voice. He gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:49.5 | your eyes on the world and realizing that you are inviting God's | Voice to speak to you. |
| W1:60.5 | [49] God's | Voice speaks to me all through the day. There is not a moment in |
| W1:60.5 | to me all through the day. There is not a moment in which God's | Voice ceases to call on my forgiveness to save me. There is not a |
| W1:60.5 | on my forgiveness to save me. There is not a moment in which His | Voice fails to direct my thoughts, guide my actions, and lead my |
| W1:60.5 | on toward truth. There is nowhere else I can go, because God's | Voice is the only voice and the only guide that has been given to His |
| W1:60.5 | There is nowhere else I can go, because God's Voice is the only | voice and the only guide that has been given to His Son. |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the Love of God. As I listen to God's | Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, His love lights |
| W1:61.3 | humility requires that you accept today's idea because it is God's | Voice Which tells you it is true. This is a beginning step in |
| W1:66.10 | Thus it must be that your function is established by God through His | Voice or is made by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which |
| W1:66.12 | proposed. Yet the ego is the only alternative to the Holy Spirit's | Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this |
| W1:67.8 | in the shorter practice periods that this is not your tiny solitary | voice that tells you this. This is the Voice for God reminding you of |
| W1:67.8 | is not your tiny solitary voice that tells you this. This is the | Voice for God reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is |
| W1:67.8 | for God reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is the | Voice of truth replacing everything that the ego tells you about |
| W1:71.12 | He will answer you in proportion to your willingness to hear His | Voice. Refuse not to hear. The very fact that you are doing the |
| W1:72.8 | grievances against Him and His creation, that you may not hear the | Voice of truth and welcome it as Friend. Your chosen savior takes His |
| W1:72.14 | shouted our grievances so loudly that we have not listened to His | Voice. We have used our grievances to close our eyes and stop our |
| W1:76.10 | beliefs today and hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the | Voice that speaks the truth to you. You will be listening to One Who |
| W1:76.12 | extend through us to Him. Thus is creation endlessly increased. His | Voice will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of Heaven |
| W1:95.20 | as possible and understand each time you do so, someone hears the | voice of hope, the stirring of the truth within his mind, the gentle |
| W1:96.8 | way to peace. Salvation is a thought you share with God, because His | Voice accepted it for you and answered in your name that it was done. |
| W1:97.5 | you are the Spirit that abides in Him, and Which calls through His | Voice to every living thing; offers His sight to everyone who asks; |
| W1:101.4 | not flee salvation and attempt in every way he can to drown the | Voice Which offers it to him? Why would he try to listen and accept |
| W1:105.10 | peace and joy are mine,” and close your eyes a while, and let His | Voice assure you that the words you speak are true. |
| W1:106.1 | If you will lay aside the ego's | voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not accept its |
| W1:106.1 | has not told you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty | Voice of truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely |
| W1:106.2 | Listen and hear your Father speak to you through His appointed | Voice, Which silences the thunder of the meaningless and shows the |
| W1:106.3 | Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear one | Voice today. |
| W1:106.5 | sleep and cannot see. God calls to them through you. He needs your | voice to speak to them, for who could reach God's Son except his |
| W1:106.6 | Hear Him today, and offer Him your | voice to speak to all the multitudes who wait to hear the Word that |
| W1:106.7 | Listen today, and you will hear a | Voice Which will resound throughout the world through you. The |
| W1:106.13 | still and listen to the truth. I am the messenger of God today. My | voice is His, to give what I receive. |
| W1:109.4 | and come to you because you rest in God. They will not hear another | voice but yours because you gave your voice to God and now you rest |
| W1:109.4 | They will not hear another voice but yours because you gave your | voice to God and now you rest in Him and let Him speak through you. |
| 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 itself |
| W1:118.3 | Let mine own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the mighty | Voice of truth itself assure me that I am God's perfect Son. |
| W1:123.5 | An unheard message will not save the world, however mighty be the | Voice that speaks, however loving may the message be. Thanks be to |
| W1:123.5 | be to you who heard, for you become the messenger who brings His | Voice with you and let it echo round and round the world. |
| W1:124.8 | nor special words to guide your meditation. We will trust God's | Voice to speak as He sees fit today, certain He will not fail. Abide |
| W1:125.3 | In stillness we will hear God's | Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without our |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, holy Son of God, your Father speak. His | Voice would give to you His holy Word to spread across the world the |
| W1:125.6 | Today He speaks to you. His | Voice awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be heard until your |
| W1:125.6 | called upon today to help make ready your most holy mind to hear the | Voice of its Creator speak. |
| W1:125.7 | the Word of God. He speaks from nearer than your heart to you. His | Voice is closer than your hand. His Love is everything you are and |
| W1:125.8 | It is your | voice to which you listen as He speaks to you. It is your Word He |
| W1:126.10 | what it really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the | Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you will understand the |
| W1:127.5 | Yet it is perfectly apparent to eyes that see and ears that hear its | Voice. |
| W1:127.8 | Call to your Father, certain that His | Voice will answer. He Himself has promised this. And He Himself will |
| W1:127.8 | love. In loving gentleness, He will abide with you as you allow His | Voice to teach love's meaning to your clean and open mind. And He |
| W1:135.27 | can still have value when you have received your function from the | Voice of God Himself? |
| W1:140.10 | in whatever form they took. We will be still and listen for the | Voice of healing which will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness |
| W1:140.10 | will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the Son of God. No | voice but this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to |
| W1:140.10 | the Son of God. No voice but this can cure. Today we hear a single | Voice which speaks to us of truth where all illusions end, and peace |
| W1:R4.10 | with the meaning God has given it as it was given to you through His | Voice. Let each idea that you review that day give you the gift which |
| W1:151.3 | and think more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal | Voice of God Himself. |
| W1:151.6 | Hear not its | voice. The witnesses it sends to prove to you its evil is your own |
| W1:151.6 | their evidence will clear the way to recognize yourself and let the | Voice for God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your own belief. |
| W1:151.8 | is meaningless before Its face. Christ cannot doubt Himself. The | Voice of God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His perfect, |
| W1:151.12 | within the Holy, holy as Itself. In everyone and everything, His | Voice would speak to you of nothing but your Self and your Creator, |
| W1:151.12 | everything and hear in everything no sound except the echo of God's | Voice. |
| W1:151.15 | lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear the | Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the |
| W1:152.15 | began, concluding it with this same invitation to your Self. God's | Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. He will |
| W1:153.17 | Love. And we will quietly sit by and wait on Him and listen to His | Voice and learn what He would have us do the hour that is yet to |
| W1:153.18 | practice, you will never cease to think of Him and hear His loving | Voice guiding your footsteps into quiet ways where you will walk in |
| W1:154.2 | Whatever your appointed role may be, it was selected by the | Voice for God, Whose function is to speak for you as well. Seeing |
| W1:154.2 | but He is not deceived in what you are and listens only to His | Voice in you. |
| 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 |
| W1:154.3 | Voice Which is His own that you become aware at last there is One | Voice in you. And that One Voice appoints your function and relays it |
| W1:154.3 | you become aware at last there is One Voice in you. And that One | Voice appoints your function and relays it to you, giving you the |
| W1:154.4 | It is this joining through the | Voice of God of Father and of Son that sets apart salvation from the |
| W1:154.4 | and of Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It is this | Voice which speaks of laws the world does not obey, which promises |
| W1:154.10 | 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 us, |
| W1:154.10 | we attend Him. He alone can speak to us and for us, joining in One | Voice the getting and the giving of God's Word, the giving and |
| W1:154.11 | 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 His |
| W1:160.8 | He has answered you who ask, “Who is the stranger?” Hear His | Voice assure you, quietly and sure, that you are not a stranger to |
| W1:161.1 | passed safely by, and Heaven now restored. Here is the answer of the | Voice of God. |
| W1:161.7 | hatred rests upon a thing, it calls for death as surely as God's | Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is insatiable, consuming |
| W1:161.15 | And He will answer Whom you called upon, for He will hear the | Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now whom you |
| W1:164.1 | faintly, for beyond them all He hears the song of Heaven and the | Voice of God more clear, more meaningful, more near. |
| W1:164.2 | call to you. Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, using your | voice to give His glad consent, accepting your deliverance for you. |
| W1:168.3 | final step Himself. All steps but this we learn, instructed by His | Voice. But finally He comes Himself and takes us in His arms and |
| W1:168.6 | we pray today, returning but the words He gave to us through His Own | Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.3 | mind can hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against God's | Voice. It has become aware that there are things it does not know and |
| W1:170.13 | do your eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them. Now your | voice belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart remains at |
| W1:R5.11 | will hear the words I speak and give them to the world. You are my | voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I save the world. |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All things are echoes of the | Voice of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.1 | a place that called you to return, although you do not recognize the | Voice nor what it is the Voice reminds you of. Yet still you feel an |
| W1:182.1 | return, although you do not recognize the Voice nor what it is the | Voice reminds you of. Yet still you feel an alien here, from |
| W1:182.5 | His Father. He desires to go home so deeply, so unceasingly, His | voice cries unto you to let Him rest a while. He does not ask for |
| W1:182.6 | home. He is so little that He seems so easily shut out, His tiny | Voice so readily obscured, His calls for help almost unheard amid the |
| W1:182.7 | His patience has no limits. He will wait until you hear His gentle | Voice within you, calling you to let Him go in peace along with you |
| W1:182.8 | cease to have value in your restless mind, then will you hear His | Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not resist Him |
| W1:182.12 | It is for this you yearn. This is your heart's desire. This is the | Voice you hear, and this the Call which cannot be denied. The holy |
| W1:183.12 | but the Son of God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's | Voice gives answer in his Father's holy Name. In this eternal, still |
| W1:186.4 | All false humility we lay aside today that we may listen to God's | Voice reveal to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt our |
| W1:186.5 | plan you did not make instead. Judge not your value to it. If God's | Voice assures you that salvation needs your part and that the whole |
| W1:186.5 | might affront their stance. Yet are the humble free to hear the | Voice which tells them what they are and what to do. |
| W1:186.6 | real. It is this image which quails and retreats in terror as the | Voice for God assures you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and |
| W1:186.7 | All this the | Voice for God relates to you. And as He speaks, the image trembles |
| W1:186.11 | doubt of its validity. It comes from One Who knows no error. And His | Voice is certain of its messages. They will not change nor be in |
| W1:186.12 | Do as His | Voice directs. And if it asks a thing of you that seems impossible, |
| W1:186.12 | denial. Then consider this—which is more likely to be right? The | Voice that speaks for the Creator of all things Who knows all things |
| W1:186.12 | bewildered, inconsistent and unsure of everything? Let not its | voice direct you. Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a |
| W1:186.12 | of everything? Let not its voice direct you. Hear instead a certain | Voice Which tells you of a function given you by your Creator, Who |
| W1:186.13 | His gentle | Voice is calling from the known to the unknowing. He would comfort |
| W1:188.7 | came but to remind you how you must return. They heed your Father's | Voice when you refuse to listen. And they urge you gently to accept |
| W1:198.5 | with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself to hear His | Voice and learn the simple lessons He would teach, instead of trying |
| W1:199.9 | I am not a body. I am free. I hear the | Voice that God has given me, and it is only this my mind obeys. |
| W1:202.1 | more where I do not belong, when God Himself has given me His | Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W2:I.4 | wait for Him to take the step to us that He has told us, through His | Voice, He would not fail to take when we invited Him. He has not left |
| W2:I.4 | with Him will now be spent. We say the words of invitation that His | Voice suggests, and then we wait for Him to come to us. |
| W2:221.1 | my heart, the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your | Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in |
| W2:221.1 | for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your | Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will hear my |
| W2:226.2 | my home awaits my glad return. Your arms are open, and I hear Your | Voice. What need have I to linger in a place of vain desires and of |
| W2:237.2 | Christ is my eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the | Voice of God today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son |
| W2:WIW.4 | world. Follow His light and see the world as He beholds it. Hear His | Voice alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him give you peace and |
| W2:245.2 | give the message that we have received. And thus we come to hear the | Voice of God, Who speaks to us as we relate His Word, Whose Love we |
| W2:254.1 | Father, today I would but hear Your | Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to hear Your Voice and |
| W2:254.1 | Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to hear Your | Voice and to receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this: I come to |
| W2:256.2 | to You in Your appointed way. We have no goal except to hear Your | Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has pointed out to us. |
| W2:266.1 | be my saviors and my counselors in sight—the bearers of Your holy | Voice to me. In them are You reflected, and in them does Christ look |
| W2:267.1 | infuses me with strength. I am a messenger of God, directed by His | Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever quiet and at peace |
| W2:267.1 | Each heartbeat calls His Name, and every one is answered by His | Voice, assuring me I am at home in Him. |
| W2:271.1 | to look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen to God's | Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is true in God's creation. In |
| W2:275.1 | Let us today attend the | Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no more true today than |
| W2:275.1 | seek and hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the | Voice of God tells us of things we cannot understand alone, nor learn |
| W2:275.1 | this that all things are protected. And in this the healing of the | Voice of God is found. |
| W2:275.2 | Your healing | Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to You. I |
| W2:275.2 | I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your | Voice will tell me what to do and where to go, to whom to speak, and |
| W2:275.2 | to give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your | Voice protects all things through me. |
| W2:WIHS.3 | yearns to have you recognize your sinlessness, you would not let His | Voice appeal in vain nor turn away from His replacement for the |
| W2:296.1 | The Holy Spirit needs my | voice today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and hear |
| W2:296.1 | Spirit needs my voice today, that all the world may listen to Your | Voice and hear Your Word through me. I am resolved to let You speak |
| W2:296.1 | would set it free that I may find escape and hear the Word Your holy | Voice will speak to me today. |
| W2:300.2 | loving Sons, have lost our way a while. But we have listened to Your | Voice and learned exactly what to do to be restored to Heaven and our |
| W2:WISC.5 | that. It needs your eyes and ears and hands and feet. It needs your | voice. And most of all it needs your willingness. Let us rejoice that |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of God the gift to hear the | Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false and what is true |
| W2:WICR.5 | Our Father calls to us. We hear His | Voice, and we forgive creation in the name of its Creator, Holiness |
| W2:321.1 | look to find it. Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your | Voice directing me. Now I would guide myself no more. For I have |
| W2:321.1 | me with my freedom as Your holy Son will not be lost to me. Your | Voice directs me. And the way to You is opening and clear to me at |
| W2:324.1 | I can but choose to wander off a while and then return. Your loving | Voice will always call me back and guide my feet aright. My brothers |
| W2:328.1 | for all things we perceive are upside-down until we listen to the | Voice of God. It seems that we will gain autonomy but by our striving |
| W2:334.1 | perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts again today. God's | Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and choose to |
| W2:339.2 | day. It is a day in which I would do nothing by myself but hear Your | Voice in everything I do; requesting only what You offer me, |
| W2:340.1 | Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he will hear Your | Voice directing him to find Christ's vision through forgiveness and |
| W2:347.2 | Listen today. Be very still and hear the gentle | Voice for God assuring you that He has judged you as the Son He loves. |
| W2:WAI.4 | redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that hear the | Voice of God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds which join |
| W2:351.1 | way secure and clear. Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your | Voice. For He alone gives judgment in Your Name. |
| W2:352.1 | memory of You and One Who leads me to it. Father, I would hear Your | Voice and find Your peace today. For I would love my own Identity and |
| W2:357.1 | holy Son is pointed out to me, first in my brother, then in me. Your | Voice instructs me patiently to hear Your Word and give as I receive. |
| W2:357.1 | give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I hear Your | Voice instructing me to find the way to You as You appointed that the |
| W2:358.1 | You speak for me. And what You give me comes from God Himself. Your | Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I want is what You |
| W2:358.1 | chose that it be mine. Let me remember all I do not know, and let my | voice be still, remembering. But let me not forget Your Love and |
| W2:FL.6 | understand 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 |
| W2:E.2 | Therefore, obey your will and follow Him Whom you accepted as your | Voice, to speak of what you really want and really need. His is the |
| W2:E.2 | Voice, to speak of what you really want and really need. His is the | Voice for God, and also yours. And thus He speaks of freedom and of |
| W2:E.3 | for there is no more need of them. Henceforth, hear but the | Voice for God and for your Self when you retire from the world, to |
| M:4.16 | to them. They hold His gifts and follow in His way because God's | Voice directs them in all things. Joy is their song of thanks. And |
| M:4.23 | of God as evil, so open-mindedness permits him to be judged by the | Voice for God on His behalf. As the projection of guilt upon him |
| M:5.9 | already given them. It is not their hands that heal. It is not their | voice that speaks the Word of God. They merely give what has been |
| M:5.10 | purpose and therefore are not really different. They seek for God's | Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as to believe |
| M:8.5 | smaller one? Will he agree more quickly to the unreality of a louder | voice he hears than to that of a softer one? Will he dismiss more |
| M:9.2 | giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for hearing God's | Voice, is usually a fairly slow process, not because it is difficult, |
| M:12.3 | is not understandable to the deluded. Only a very few can hear God's | Voice at all, and even they cannot communicate His messages directly |
| M:12.3 | who do not realize that they are spirit. A body they can see. A | voice they understand and listen to without the fear that truth would |
| M:12.4 | more and more certain that the body's function is but to let God's | Voice speak through it to human ears. And these ears will carry to |
| M:12.5 | give the body another purpose from the one that keeps it holy. God's | Voice will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, just as It tells |
| M:13.6 | other hope in all the world that they can trust. There is no other | voice in all the world that echoes God's. If you would sacrifice the |
| M:14.4 | willing to go in its direction. He need merely trust that, if God's | Voice tells him it is a lesson he can learn, he can learn it. He does |
| M:15.3 | teacher of God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and hear the | Voice of Judgment in yourself? Or do you still attempt to take His |
| M:15.3 | still attempt to take His role from Him? Learn to be quiet, for His | Voice is heard in stillness. And His Judgment comes to all who stand |
| M:25.2 | of the Holy Spirit, Whose Presence is always there and Whose | Voice is available but for the hearing. These limits are placed out |
| M:25.2 | the separate places of the world would fall at the holy sound of His | Voice. Who transcends these limits in any way is merely becoming more |
| M:26.3 | in bondage and still asleep, so that by their awakening can God's | Voice be heard. |
| M:28.6 | Word and understood its meaning. He is free because he let God's | Voice proclaim the truth. And all he sought before to crucify are |
| M:29.8 | Son He loves, and it is given you to be the means through which His | Voice is heard around the world to close all things of time, to end |
