Tx:6.6 You have reacted for  years as if you were being crucified. This is a marked tendency of
Tx:15.18  Himself to encompass you. You who have spent days, hours, and even  years in chaining your brothers to your egos in an attempt to support

W1:127.9 Today the legion of the future  years of waiting for salvation disappears before the timelessness of

W1:156.7 Yet you have wasted many, many  years on just this foolish thought. The past is gone with all its
W1:196.4  this. It is but willingness. And what would seem to need a thousand  years can easily be done in just one instant by the grace of God.

W1:28.1 Today we are really giving specific application to the idea for  yesterday. In these practice periods, you will be making a series of
W1:29.2  God is not in a table, for example, as you see it. Yet we emphasized  yesterday that a table shares the purpose of the universe. And what
W1:36.1 Today's idea extends the idea for  yesterday from the perceiver to the perceived. You are holy because

Tx:16.5  respond to what you do not understand. Be tempted not in this, and  yield not to the ego's triumphant use of empathy for its glory.
Tx:16.16  For you have come too near to truth to renounce it now, and you will  yield to its compelling attraction. You can delay this now but only a

Tx:24.59  you have pursued this goal with vigilance you never thought to  yield and effort that you never thought to cease. And all this grim
Tx:26.51  gives them no reality. Not one is true in any way, and all must  yield with equal ease to what God gave as answer to them all. God's
Tx:31.92  loss is but temptation to perceive yourself defenseless and in hell.  Yield not to this, and you will see all pain in every form wherever

Tx:14.19 Death  yields to life simply because destruction is not true. The light of

Tx:2.23  to you the affirmation of truth. If you project error to me or to  yourself, you are interfering with the process. My use of projection,
Tx:2.28 Dissociation is quite similar. You should split off or dissociate  yourself from error but only in defense of integration.
Tx:2.31  can be properly used as a way of putting distance between  yourself and what you should fly from.

Tx:2.74 What you do comes from what you think. You cannot separate  yourself from the truth by “giving” autonomy to behavior. This is
Tx:2.77  This produces conflicted behavior, which is intolerable to  yourself because the part of the will that wants to do something else
Tx:2.82  step is know first that this is an expression of fear. Then say to  yourself that you must somehow have willed not to love, or the fear
Tx:2.87  It is obvious, then, that when you are afraid you have placed  yourself in a position where you need Atonement, because you have
Tx:2.90  It appears at first glance that to believe such power about  yourself is merely arrogant, but that is not the real reason why you
Tx:3.29  that if you perceive truly, you are canceling out misperceptions in  yourself and in others simultaneously. Because you see them as they
Tx:3.36 If you attack error in one another, you will hurt  yourself. You cannot recognize each other when you attack. Attack is

Tx:3.60  is beyond doubt. Do not perceive yourself in different lights. Know  yourself in the One Light where the miracle that is you is perfectly
Tx:3.65 When you feel tired, it is merely because you have judged  yourself as capable of being tired. When you laugh at someone, it is
Tx:3.65  it is because you have judged him as debased. When you laugh at  yourself, you are singularly likely to laugh at others, if only
Tx:3.73  by depreciating the power of your minds. To do so is to deceive  yourself, and this will hurt you because you know the strength of the
Tx:4.2  knowledge instead of affirming it and are thus dispiriting  yourself. Do not embark on foolish journeys, because they are indeed
Tx:4.4  we can overcome the cross. Unless you do so, you are free to crucify  yourself as often as you choose. But this is not the Gospel I
Tx:4.18  and release others. Do not present a false and unworthy picture of  yourself to others, and do not accept such a picture of them
Tx:4.49  have for the self you have made. You project onto your own idea of  yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the love you feel
Tx:4.53  more than God will, but I must wait as long as you choose to forsake  yourself. Because I wait in love and not in impatience, you will

Tx:5.19  why you can choose to listen to two voices within you. One you made  yourself and that one is not of God. But the other is given you by
Tx:5.27  earth. My only gift to you is to help you make the same decision for  yourself. The will for this decision is the will to share it, because
Tx:5.33  the idea of God. Since you are part of God, it is also the idea of  yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the Holy
Tx:5.34  yours. What you acknowledge in your brother you are acknowledging in  yourself, and what you share you strengthen.
Tx:5.35  in strength before you can hear it. It is impossible to hear it in  yourself while it is so weak in your own mind. It is not weak in
Tx:5.35  shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the Holy Spirit in  yourself alone, your meditations will frighten you because by
Tx:5.39  place of the Sonship [is] God. This is your life, your eternity, and  yourself. It is of this that the Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this
Tx:5.41  of peace. What you perceive in others, you are strengthening in  yourself. You let your mind misperceive, but the Holy Spirit lets

Tx:5.48 As a therapist, you  yourself tell your patients that the real difference between neurotic
Tx:5.52  to one voice means the will to share the voice in order to hear it  yourself. The mind that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to

Tx:5.61  follows, then, that if you identify with the ego, you must perceive  yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you will
Tx:5.73  share it with your brothers. How else can the chance to claim it for  yourself be given you? What you do not understand is that the two
Tx:5.76  that what you believe to be worth cultivating you will cultivate in  yourself. Your judgment of what is worthy makes it worthy for you.
Tx:5.79  “Do not look there.” It is still true that “where you look to find  yourself is up to you.” The Higher Court will not condemn you. It
Tx:5.92  peace, because you are of one mind and spirit with Him. Excluding  yourself from the Atonement is the ego's last-ditch defense of its
Tx:5.94  in the usual sense because this implies guilt. If you allow  yourself to feel guilty, you will reinforce the error rather than
Tx:6.7  be persecuted. If you respond with anger, you must be equating  yourself with the destructible and are therefore regarding yourself
Tx:6.7  equating yourself with the destructible and are therefore regarding  yourself insanely.
Tx:6.26  you disown and therefore do not believe is yours. You are excluding  yourself by the very statement you are making that you are different
Tx:6.26  unconsciously, you try to keep the fact that you must have attacked  yourself first out of awareness and thus imagine that you have made
Tx:6.26  yourself first out of awareness and thus imagine that you have made  yourself safe.
Tx:6.28 The ego uses projection only to distort your perception both of  yourself and your brothers. The process begins by excluding something
Tx:6.29  is the one need which in this world is universal. To perceive  yourself this way is the only way in which you can find happiness in
Tx:6.30  in Him, Who alone is perfect. To deny this in any way is to deny  yourself and Him since it is impossible to accept one without the
Tx:6.32  You can no more pray for yourselves alone than you can find joy for  yourself alone. Prayer is the restatement of inclusion, directed by
Tx:6.53  a Guide to how to develop them, but you have no commander except  yourself. This leaves you in charge of the Kingdom with both a Guide
Tx:6.68 This is a very preliminary step, and the only one you must take for  yourself. It is not even necessary that you complete the step
Tx:6.68  for yourself. It is not even necessary that you complete the step  yourself, but it is necessary that you turn in that direction. Having
Tx:6.68  you turn in that direction. Having chosen to go that way, you place  yourself in charge of the journey, where you and only you must remain.
Tx:6.90  that you are without the Kingdom and have therefore excluded  yourself from it in your belief. It is therefore essential to teach
Tx:6.94  learn to accept truth, because you threw it away. You therefore saw  yourself as if you were without it. By making another Kingdom which
Tx:7.5  if God created you by extending Himself as you, you can only extend  yourself as He did. Only joy increases forever, since joy and
Tx:7.6  you something about this last step, although this one you must know  yourself, since by it you know what you are. This is your being.
Tx:7.10 To heal, then, is to correct perception in your brother and  yourself by sharing the Holy Spirit with him. This places you both
Tx:7.26  see yourselves as separated from your meaning only by experiencing  yourself as unreal. This is why the ego is insane; it teaches that
Tx:7.28  as true. How is that different from saying that you are perceiving  yourself as unreal?
Tx:7.51  I am with you, and I cannot forget Him. To forget me is to forget  yourself and Him Who created you. Our brothers are forgetful. That is
Tx:7.71  to be subject to exclusion. You will never be able to exclude  yourself from what you project.
Tx:7.73  to be. Your brother is the mirror in which you will see the image of  yourself as long as perception lasts. And perception will last until
Tx:7.76  are a part, or you cannot learn of His peace and accept His gift for  yourself and as yourself. You cannot know your own perfection until
Tx:7.76  cannot learn of His peace and accept His gift for yourself and as  yourself. You cannot know your own perfection until you have honored
Tx:7.77  Do not share their delusions of scarcity, or you will perceive  yourself as lacking.
Tx:7.79  Projection always sees your will in others. If you will to separate  yourself from God, that is what you will think others are doing to
Tx:7.84  that it can free you of conflict, lest you give the ego up and free  yourself. The ego, using its own warped version of the laws of God,
Tx:7.86  perpetuate an illusion about another without perpetuating it about  yourself. There is no way out of this, because it is impossible to
Tx:7.88  are willing to accept sole responsibility for the ego's existence  yourself, you will have laid aside all anger and all attack, because
Tx:7.90  cannot make this judgment alone. By accepting the Atonement for  yourself, you are deciding against the belief that you can be alone,
Tx:7.91  power, but God wills to release it. He no more wills you to deprive  yourself of your creations than He wills to deprive Himself of His.
Tx:7.91  of His. Do not withhold your gifts to the Sonship, or you withhold  yourself from God. Selfishness is of the ego, but self-fullness is of
Tx:7.94  know your own self-fullness. Exclude any part of the Kingdom from  yourself, and you are not whole. A split mind cannot perceive its
Tx:7.102 That is why you need to demonstrate the obvious to  yourself. It is not obvious to you. You believe that doing the
Tx:8.4  have what you give up? You share to have, but you do not give it up  yourself. When you give up peace, you are excluding yourself from it.
Tx:8.4  not give it up yourself. When you give up peace, you are excluding  yourself from it. This is a condition which is so alien to the
Tx:8.7  except for the crucial fact that both are teaching you about  yourself. Your reality is unaffected by both, but if you listen to
Tx:8.12  make this distinction without Him. That is because you have taught  yourself that imprisonment is freedom. Believing them to be the same,
Tx:8.13  could will to be without you. This is freedom and this is joy. Deny  yourself this and you are denying God His Kingdom because He created
Tx:8.19  remember it is a holy encounter. As you see him, you will see  yourself. As you treat him, you will treat yourself. As you think of
Tx:8.19  you see him, you will see yourself. As you treat him, you will treat  yourself. As you think of him, you will think of yourself. Never
Tx:8.19  him, you will treat yourself. As you think of him, you will think of  yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find yourself or
Tx:8.19  will think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find  yourself or lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet,
Tx:8.19  forget this, for in him you will find yourself or lose sight of  yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, they are given another
Tx:8.19  Do not leave anyone without giving salvation to him and receiving it  yourself, for I am always there with you in remembrance of you.
Tx:8.20  are in him, because they are yours. The ego tries to find them in  yourself, because it does not know where to look. The Holy Spirit
Tx:8.20  where to look. The Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only at  yourself, you cannot find yourself because that is not what you are.
Tx:8.20  teaches you that if you look only at yourself, you cannot find  yourself because that is not what you are.
Tx:8.21  your responsibility to him, because it is your responsibility to  yourself. Give him his place in the Kingdom, and you will have yours.
Tx:8.22  once you have really done this, you will accept the Atonement for  yourself. What other choice could you make? Having made this choice,
Tx:8.23 You can encounter only part of  yourself, because you are part of God, Who is everything. His power
Tx:8.25  laws govern you, because they govern everything. You cannot exempt  yourself from His laws, although you can disobey them. Yet if you do,
Tx:8.25  you do, you will feel lonely and helpless, because you are denying  yourself everything.
Tx:8.27  abide wherever you go. The remembrance of me is the remembrance of  yourself and of Him Who sent me to you. You were in darkness until
Tx:8.33  you are nothing without me, because by denying the Father you deny  yourself. I will always remember you, and in my remembrance of you
Tx:8.33  remember you, and in my remembrance of you lies your remembrance of  yourself. In our remembrance of each other lies our remembrance of
Tx:8.34  do not love. Therefore, when you seek to imprison anyone, including  yourself, you do not love him, and you cannot identify with him. When
Tx:8.34  do not love him, and you cannot identify with him. When you imprison  yourself, you are losing sight of your true identification with me
Tx:8.35 The Holy Trinity is holy, because it is one. If you exclude  yourself from this union, you are perceiving the Holy Trinity as
Tx:8.36  what you are. By separating your will from mine, you are exempting  yourself from the Will of God, which is yourself.
Tx:8.36  from mine, you are exempting yourself from the Will of God, which is  yourself.
Tx:8.37  recognizing Him? The recognition of God is the recognition of  yourself. There is no separation of God and His creation. You will
Tx:8.39  with yours. Our union is therefore the way to renounce the ego in  yourself. The truth in both of us is beyond the ego. By willing that,
Tx:8.46  in return? And what else but joy would you want? You made neither  yourself nor your function. You made only the decision to be unworthy
Tx:8.46  only the decision to be unworthy of both. Yet you could not make  yourself unworthy, because you are the treasure of God. What He
Tx:8.47  you, and He extends His Fatherhood to you so that you can extend  yourself as He did. You do not understand this, because you do not
Tx:8.48  contradiction in terms which actually leaves nothing. [You can make  yourself powerless only in a way that has no meaning at all.] When
Tx:8.49 There is no question but one you should ever ask of  yourself: “Do I want to know my Father's Will for me?” He will not
Tx:8.53  physical. When attack in any form enters your mind, you are equating  yourself with a body. This is the ego's interpretation of the body.
Tx:8.53  the idea of attack would have no appeal for you. When you equate  yourself with a body, you will always experience depression. When a
Tx:8.57  and so are yours. You have attacked him, but you must have attacked  yourself first. Do not see him this way for your own salvation, which
Tx:8.58  can perfectly accomplish His holy will for you when you so will it  yourself. He has not withdrawn His gifts from you, but you have
Tx:8.65  except a means of pure extension is to limit your mind and hurt  yourself. Health is therefore nothing more than united purpose. If
Tx:8.66  another as limited to or by the body, you are imposing this limit on  yourself. Are you willing to accept this, when your whole purpose for
Tx:8.67  with His purpose, and you need salvation. You have condemned  yourself, but condemnation is not of God. Therefore, it is not true.
Tx:8.67  brother as a body, you are condemning him because you have condemned  yourself. Yet if all condemnation is unreal, and it must be unreal
Tx:8.87  Yet you cannot withdraw from me alone. You can only withdraw from  yourself and me.
Tx:8.88  I give you no limits because God lays none upon you. When you limit  yourself, we are not of one mind and that is sickness. Yet sickness
Tx:8.103  If it was never created, it is nothing. Can you really devote  yourself to nothing?
Tx:8.105  depression, and ultimately panic, because you are trying to make  yourself unreal. When you feel these things, do not try to look
Tx:8.105  unreal. When you feel these things, do not try to look beyond  yourself for truth, for truth can only be within you. Say, therefore,
Tx:8.110  him and do not confound him, for your faith in him is your faith in  yourself. If you would know God and His Answer, believe in me whose
Tx:8.112  mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear the Voice for God in  yourself alone because you are not alone. And His answer is only for
Tx:8.114  way, you are looking for the truth in you. This is not going beyond  yourself but toward yourself. Hear only God's Answer in His Sons, and
Tx:8.114  for the truth in you. This is not going beyond yourself but toward  yourself. Hear only God's Answer in His Sons, and you are answered.
Tx:9.4  lack of correction for him. It is the giving up of correction in  yourself.
Tx:9.5  right as you are, and if you think he is wrong, you are condemning  yourself.
Tx:9.6 You cannot correct  yourself. Is it possible, then, for you to correct another? Yet you
Tx:9.6  Yet you can see him truly because it is possible for you to see  yourself truly. It is not up to you to change him but merely to
Tx:9.7  yours are of you. Accept his errors as real, and you have attacked  yourself. If you would find your way and keep it, see only truth
Tx:9.8  to Him! You do not know how to use it. He will teach you how to see  yourself without condemnation by learning how to look on everything
Tx:9.9  holds. Accept as true only what your brother is if you would know  yourself. Perceive what he is not, and you cannot know what you are,
Tx:9.12  no sense and will not work. By following it, you will merely place  yourself in an impossible situation to which the ego always leads
Tx:9.13  and begins to insist that you must accept the meaningless to save  yourself. Many have tried to do this in my name, forgetting that my
Tx:9.16  how appropriately can you expect him to react? You might still ask  yourself, regardless of how you can account for the reactions,
Tx:9.25  does or like the theologian, by acknowledging darkness in  yourself and looking for a distant light to remove it while
Tx:9.29 As you awaken other minds to the Holy Spirit through Him and not  yourself, you will understand that you are not obeying the laws of
Tx:9.31  react to you with joy even though you are not experiencing joy  yourself, there must be something in you that is capable of producing
Tx:9.31  that it does produce joy in others, you must be dissociating it in  yourself.
Tx:9.33  what you taught them. What you call upon in them, you call upon in  yourself. And as you call upon it in them, it becomes real to you.
Tx:9.33  what you do to my brother you do to me, and if you do everything for  yourself because we are part of you, everything we do belongs to you
Tx:9.34  learn of your wholeness until you see it everywhere. You can know  yourself only as God knows His Son, for knowledge is shared with God.
Tx:9.36  reality which you can recognize. You cannot perform a miracle for  yourself, because miracles are a way of giving acceptance and
Tx:9.38  salvation. Every minute and every second gives you a chance to save  yourself. Do not lose these chances, not because they will not
Tx:9.41 You, then, have two conflicting evaluations of  yourself in your minds, and they cannot both be true. You do not yet
Tx:9.42  with the ego's evaluation of what you are? If you are willing to see  yourself as unloving, you will not be happy. You are condemning
Tx:9.42  see yourself as unloving, you will not be happy. You are condemning  yourself and must therefore regard yourself as inadequate. Would you
Tx:9.42  not be happy. You are condemning yourself and must therefore regard  yourself as inadequate. Would you look to the ego to help you escape
Tx:9.49  and viciousness. It remains suspicious as long as you despair of  yourself. It shifts to viciousness whenever you will not tolerate
Tx:9.52  you hold it in your mind, protecting it from illusions and keeping  yourself in the Mind of God. Remember always that you cannot be
Tx:9.57  to them. You cannot replace the Kingdom, and you cannot replace  yourself. God, Who knows your value, would not have it so, and so it
Tx:9.57  value is in God's Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept  yourself as God created you cannot be arrogance, because it is the
Tx:9.57  is arrogant, because it means that you believe your evaluation of  yourself is truer than God's.
Tx:9.58 Yet if truth is indivisible, your evaluation of  yourself must be God's. You did not establish your value, and it
Tx:9.59 Nothing beyond  yourself can make you fearful or loving, because nothing is beyond
Tx:9.59  that anything which happens to you is caused by factors outside  yourself. You must learn that time is solely at your disposal, and
Tx:9.61  much is up to you. When anything threatens your peace of mind, ask  yourself,
Tx:9.63  for it is indeed changeless, and refuse to change your mind about  yourself. God will never decide against you, or He would be deciding
Tx:9.64  for God. The law of creation is that you love your creations as  yourself because they are part of you. Everything that was created is
Tx:9.69  your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge of God and of  yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance. Give up gladly
Tx:9.69  your remembering of Him, for in this remembering is the knowledge of  yourself.
Tx:9.71 When you attack, you are denying  yourself. You are specifically teaching yourself that you are not
Tx:9.71  you attack, you are denying yourself. You are specifically teaching  yourself that you are not what you are. Your denial of reality
Tx:9.71  part of God, you will understand why it is that you always attack  yourself first.
Tx:9.73  you will look at it. By deciding against your reality, you have made  yourself vigilant against God and His Kingdom. And it is this
Tx:9.74  No one can will to destroy himself. When you think you are attacking  yourself, it is a sure sign that you hate what you think you are. And
Tx:9.77  Would you strengthen his denial of God and thus lose sight of  yourself? Or would you remind him of his wholeness and remember your
Tx:9.79  but my love, for you do not value yourselves. When you do not value  yourself, you become sick, but my value of you can heal you because
Tx:9.82  listen to. You made the god of sickness, and by making him, you made  yourself able to hear him. Yet you did not create him, because he is
Tx:9.82  To accept other gods before Him is to place other images before  yourself.
Tx:9.84  brothers; in fact, you would have to do so if you give him up for  yourself. For if you see him anywhere, you have accepted him. And if
Tx:9.90  as what it is. No false gods you attempt to interpose between  yourself and your reality affect truth at all. Peace is yours because
Tx:9.94  result in projection, and you will believe that others, and not  yourself, have done this to you. You will receive the message you
Tx:9.95  not God-destructive. It means that you are willing not to know  yourself in order to be sick. This is the offering which your god
Tx:9.100  Being. You are not sick, and you cannot die. But you can confuse  yourself with things that do. Remember, though, that to do this is
Tx:9.101 If you will accept  yourself as God created you, you will be incapable of suffering. Yet
Tx:9.101  because your acknowledgment of your Father is the acknowledgment of  yourself as you are. Your Father created you wholly without sin,
Tx:9.102 You do not realize how much you have denied  yourself, and how much God in His love would not have it so. Yet He
Tx:9.102  to you in your creation, and His gifts are eternal. Would you deny  yourself to Him?
Tx:9.103  are not at home anywhere else or in any other condition. Do not deny  yourself the joy which was created for you for the misery you have
Tx:9.104  of his reality. And as part of the Sonship, that is how you must see  yourself to learn of yours.
Tx:9.105  and it is yours only because He has given it to you. Your gifts to  yourself are meaningless, but your gifts to your creations are like
Tx:9.106  fatherhood gave you everything. That is why to deny Him is to deny  yourself. Arrogance is the denial of love, because love shares and
Tx:10.5  anything else to the Sonship, recognizing your need of healing for  yourself? For in this lies the beginning of knowledge, the foundation
Tx:10.5  of the Mind of God's Son you restore this reality, you restore it to  yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of God with your brother, for God
Tx:10.6  and no endings in God, Whose universe is Himself. Can you exclude  yourself from the universe or from God, Who is the universe? I and my
Tx:10.13 The projection of the ego makes it appear as if God's Will is outside  yourself and therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it is
Tx:10.16  to unite your will with His, for He wills you Himself. And you will  yourself to Him because, in your perfect understanding of Him, you
Tx:10.17  you have than those who have been healed by it? But be sure to count  yourself among them, for in your willingness to join them is your
Tx:10.18 And denial is as total as love. You cannot deny part of  yourself because the remainder will seem to be unintegrated and
Tx:10.18  it. To deny meaning must be to fail to understand. You can heal only  yourself, for only God's Son needs healing. He needs it because he
Tx:10.20  enter, you lessen His welcome. He will remain, but you have allied  yourself against Him. Whatever journey you choose to take, He will go
Tx:10.23 When you are weary, remember you have hurt  yourself. Your Comforter will rest you, but you cannot. You do not
Tx:10.31  understanding is lost because you are looking on what God created as  yourself without love. And since what He created is part of Him, you
Tx:10.34 Only you can deprive  yourself of anything. Do not oppose this realization, for it is truly
Tx:10.35  part of you and you blame them for your deprivation, you are blaming  yourself. And you cannot blame yourself without blaming them. That is
Tx:10.35  for your deprivation, you are blaming yourself. And you cannot blame  yourself without blaming them. That is why blame must be undone, not
Tx:10.35  them. That is why blame must be undone, not re-allocated. Lay it to  yourself and you cannot know yourself, for only the ego blames at
Tx:10.35  be undone, not re-allocated. Lay it to yourself and you cannot know  yourself, for only the ego blames at all. Self-blame is therefore ego
Tx:10.36  be unable to enter the place where God would have you be. But love  yourself with the love of Christ, for so does your Father love you.
Tx:10.37  appreciation of His Son. Christ waits for your acceptance of Him as  yourself and of His wholeness as yours. For Christ is the Son of God
Tx:10.47  continue if you realize that, by accepting it, you are belittling  yourself and depriving yourself of power?
Tx:10.47  that, by accepting it, you are belittling yourself and depriving  yourself of power?
Tx:10.48 The ego can and does allow you to regard  yourself as supercilious, unbelieving, “light-hearted,” distant,
Tx:10.49  cannot minimize it. For if you overlook love, you are overlooking  yourself, and you must fear unreality because you have denied
Tx:10.49  yourself, and you must fear unreality because you have denied  yourself. By believing that you have successfully attacked truth, you
Tx:10.49  that attack has power. Very simply, then, you have become afraid of  yourself. And no one wills to learn what he believes would destroy
Tx:10.62  you, then, perceive unworthiness in a brother and not perceive it in  yourself? And can you perceive it in yourself and not perceive it in
Tx:10.62  brother and not perceive it in yourself? And can you perceive it in  yourself and not perceive it in God? Believe in the resurrection
Tx:10.62  God, which knows no time and no exceptions. But make no exceptions  yourself, or you will not perceive what has been accomplished for
Tx:10.66 You have nailed  yourself to a cross and placed a crown of thorns upon your own head.
Tx:10.73  that you can perceive the real world is to believe that you can know  yourself. You can know God because it is His Will to be known. The
Tx:10.76  on your willingness to question everything you have learned of  yourself, for you who have learned amiss should not be your own
Tx:10.77  for what is yours but which you did not make, and do not defend  yourself against truth. You made the problem which God has answered.
Tx:10.82  but the real world is still yours for the asking. Do not deny it to  yourself, for it can only free you. Nothing of God will enslave His
Tx:10.84  Be not deceived in God's Son, for thereby you must be deceived in  yourself. And being deceived in yourself, you are deceived in your
Tx:10.84  for thereby you must be deceived in yourself. And being deceived in  yourself, you are deceived in your Father in Whom no deceit is
Tx:10.86  real world as you share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love  yourself is to heal yourself, and you cannot perceive part of you as
Tx:10.86  share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love yourself is to heal  yourself, and you cannot perceive part of you as sick and achieve
Tx:10.87  in Him. If what you perceive offends you, you are offended in  yourself and are condemning God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let
Tx:10.89  frightened. It is not the reality of your brothers or your Father or  yourself which frightens you. You do not know what they are, and so
Tx:10.90  For if God is not deceived in you, you can be deceived only in  yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit,
Tx:10.90  you can be deceived only in yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of  yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God,
Tx:10.90  that, as part of God, deceit in you is impossible. When you perceive  yourself without deceit, you will accept the real world in place of
Tx:11.4  for your unwillingness to perceive reality, which you withhold from  yourself.
Tx:11.8  help you are asking for it, and if you perceive but one need in  yourself, you will be healed. For you will recognize God's answer as
Tx:11.11  the loss, the basic cause of fear is removed. Thereby you teach  yourself that fear does not exist in you, for you have in yourself
Tx:11.11  you teach yourself that fear does not exist in you, for you have in  yourself the means for removing it and have demonstrated this by
Tx:11.15  forgotten. To perceive the healing of your brother as the healing of  yourself is thus the way to remember God. For you forgot your
Tx:11.16  love. And to give a brother what he really wants is to offer it unto  yourself, for your Father wills you to know your brother as yourself.
Tx:11.16  it unto yourself, for your Father wills you to know your brother as  yourself. Answer his call for love and yours is answered. Healing is
Tx:11.23  to Him that is not of God is gone. Yet you must reveal it to  yourself in perfect willingness, for otherwise His knowledge remains
Tx:11.27  you. Why would you insist in denying him? For to do so is to deny  yourself and impoverish both. He is asking for salvation, as you are.
Tx:11.28  this is the only answer. Never lose sight of this, and never allow  yourself to believe even for an instant that there is another answer.
Tx:11.28  an instant that there is another answer. For you will surely place  yourself among the poor, who do not understand that they dwell in
Tx:11.29 To identify with the ego is to attack  yourself and make yourself poor. That is why everyone who identifies
Tx:11.29 To identify with the ego is to attack yourself and make  yourself poor. That is why everyone who identifies with the ego feels
Tx:11.34  maker along with his real salvation. Do not believe it is outside of  yourself, for only by recognizing where it is will you gain control
Tx:11.40  whether you know where it is or not. If you believe it is outside  yourself, the search will be futile, for you will be seeking it where
Tx:11.40  be seeking it where it is not. You do not know how to look within  yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the Holy
Tx:11.43  the idea of attack can enter your mind, you must have perceived  yourself as weak. Because you had attacked yourself and believed that
Tx:11.43  you must have perceived yourself as weak. Because you had attacked  yourself and believed that the attack was effective, you behold
Tx:11.43  yourself and believed that the attack was effective, you behold  yourself as weakened. No longer perceiving yourself and all your
Tx:11.43  was effective, you behold yourself as weakened. No longer perceiving  yourself and all your brothers as equal and regarding yourself as
Tx:11.43  perceiving yourself and all your brothers as equal and regarding  yourself as weaker, you attempt to “equalize” the situation you have
Tx:11.44  recognizing that attack has no effect. Although you have attacked  yourself, and very brutally, you will demonstrate that nothing
Tx:11.44  invulnerability has more than negative value. If your attacks on  yourself have failed to weaken you, you are still strong. You
Tx:11.45  uselessness of attack except by recognizing that your attack on  yourself had no effects. For others do react to attack if they
Tx:11.45  The only place where you can cancel out all reinforcement is in  yourself. For you are always the first point of your attack, and if
Tx:11.47  your limited resources. He becomes your resource because, of  yourself, you cannot learn. The learning situation in which you
Tx:11.47  you cannot learn. The learning situation in which you placed  yourself is impossible, and in this situation you clearly require a
Tx:11.50  have chosen is against love and amounts to a course in how to attack  yourself. A necessary minor, supplementing this major curriculum
Tx:11.51  do not will should take heart, for although the curriculum you set  yourself is depressing indeed, it is merely ridiculous if you look at
Tx:11.53  To invest in something without profit is surely to impoverish  yourself, and the overhead is high. Not only is there no profit in
Tx:11.55  the projection of loving thoughts outward. Make the world real unto  yourself, for the real world is the gift of the Holy Spirit, and so
Tx:11.61  whole, and the Atonement will radiate from your acceptance of it for  yourself to everyone the Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In
Tx:11.67  his witnesses. This is why you find what you seek. What you want in  yourself, you will make manifest by projection, and you will accept
Tx:11.70  within and thought you saw the power to give something else within  yourself. It was only this decision that determined what you found,
Tx:11.74  look without and react unfavorably to what you see, you have judged  yourself unworthy and have condemned yourself to death. The death
Tx:11.74  what you see, you have judged yourself unworthy and have condemned  yourself to death. The death penalty is the ego's ultimate goal, for
Tx:11.75  that death comes from God and not from the ego because, by confusing  yourself with the ego, you believe that you want death. And from what
Tx:11.76  will never see death. For you will have looked upon the deathless in  yourself, and you will see only the eternal as you look out upon a
Tx:11.80  you have not heard is the only answer. God would reunite you with  yourself and did not abandon you in your seeming distress. You are
Tx:11.94  projecting separation in place of unity. You can condemn only  yourself, and by so doing, you cannot know that you are God's Son.
Tx:11.99 The ego teaches you to attack  yourself because you are guilty, and this must increase the guilt,
Tx:11.99  he knows this is true. And being true for you, you cannot attack  yourself, for without guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are
Tx:12.2  you are no longer you, you do not realize that you are failing  yourself.
Tx:12.5  and you are afraid to find him. You have handled this wish to kill  yourself by not knowing who you are and identifying with something
Tx:12.7  then, believe that by not learning the course, you are protecting  yourself. And you do not realize that it is only your guiltlessness
Tx:12.8  it for you, you have rejected it and have not accepted it for  yourself. You have recognized the futility of the ego and its
Tx:12.8  fear. For you believe that in the presence of truth you will turn on  yourself and destroy yourself.
Tx:12.8  that in the presence of truth you will turn on yourself and destroy  yourself.
Tx:12.10  you and dispel it, without the need for you to raise it to awareness  yourself. Yet there is one more complication which you have
Tx:12.10  Yet there is one more complication which you have interposed between  yourself and the Atonement, which you do not yet realize. We have
Tx:12.11  if you did not believe that, without the ego, you would find within  yourself something you fear even more. You are not afraid of
Tx:12.14  think you would be helpless in God's Presence, and you would save  yourself from His love because you think it would crush you into
Tx:12.14  you into nothingness. You are afraid it would sweep you away from  yourself and make you little. For you believe that magnitude lies in
Tx:12.19  your mind where the Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt  yourself from His healing power, for by not offering total love, you
Tx:12.27  past because, by making it real in the present, you are forbidding  yourself to let it go. You thus deny yourself the message of release
Tx:12.27  the present, you are forbidding yourself to let it go. You thus deny  yourself the message of release that every brother offers you now.
Tx:12.29  from your sight. The Holy Spirit teaches that you always meet  yourself and the encounter is holy because you are. The ego teaches
Tx:12.35  in their own private world. And thus it is that you must attack  yourself first, for what you attack is not in others. Its only
Tx:12.37  it. Yet fear attracts you, and believing it is love, you call it to  yourself. Your private world is filled with the figures of fear you
Tx:12.38  And the vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you look upon  yourself alone.
Tx:12.39  would you offer this to your Father? For if you offer it to  yourself, you are offering it to Him. And He will not return it, for
Tx:12.39  set you free. His sane answer tells you that what you have offered  yourself is not true, but His offering to you has never changed. You
Tx:12.40  see all that you denied in your brothers because you denied it in  yourself. For you will love them, and by drawing nigh unto them, you
Tx:12.40  will love them, and by drawing nigh unto them, you will draw them to  yourself, perceiving them as witnesses to your reality, which you
Tx:12.45  and cherish instead of him. In your questioning of illusions, ask  yourself if it is really sane to perceive what was now. If you
Tx:12.56  to you. In sleep you are alone, and your awareness is narrowed to  yourself. And that is why the nightmares come. You dream of isolation
Tx:12.58 Sit quietly and look upon the world you see, and tell  yourself,
Tx:12.63 You have been wrong about the world because you have misjudged  yourself. From such a twisted reference point what could you see? All
Tx:12.64  company and learned of Him the joyful journey home. You wait but for  yourself. To give this sad world over and exchange your errors for
Tx:12.66  that is wholly true and wholly yours. For all else you have lent  yourself in time, and it will fade. But this one thing is always
Tx:12.68  do need things because it is a world of scarcity in which you find  yourself because you are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a
Tx:12.68  in which you find yourself because you are lacking. Yet can you find  yourself in such a world? Without the Holy Spirit, the answer would
Tx:12.69  yourselves what you need, for you do not know and your advice unto  yourself will hurt you. For what you think you need will merely serve
Tx:12.75  together. The Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to  yourself. This is the only real need to be fulfilled in time.
Tx:13.8 When you have seen your brothers as  yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having learned to free
Tx:13.8  yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having learned to free  yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me under the holy
Tx:13.8  in the eternity of God the Father. The holy light you saw outside  yourself in every miracle you offered to your brothers will be
Tx:13.12  obeying the ego's harsh commandments, you bring its condemnation of  yourself, and you will not escape the punishment it offers those who
Tx:13.15  love. Nothing can justify insanity, and to call for punishment upon  yourself must be insane.
Tx:13.16  then, as guilty, and you will affirm the truth of guiltlessness unto  yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the Son of God lies
Tx:13.24  to the Atonement. When everyone is welcome to you as you would have  yourself be welcome to your Father, you will see no guilt in you. For
Tx:13.32  him. For in our love of him is your guiltlessness. But look upon  yourself, and gladness and appreciation for what you see will banish
Tx:13.43  you will learn how to save. It will not be possible to exempt  yourself from what the Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is
Tx:13.48  have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must have come first to  yourself. And you must also have accepted it as yours, for how else
Tx:13.49  forgiveness, you must have let guilt go, accepting the Atonement for  yourself and learning you are guiltless. How could you learn what has
Tx:13.52  Anything you deny which He knows to be true, you have denied  yourself, and He must therefore teach you not to deny it. Undoing is
Tx:13.66  your happiness and will not learn how to be happy. Say therefore to  yourself gently, but with the conviction born of the love of God and
Tx:13.71  can, you teach him that the Atonement, which you have accepted for  yourself, is also his. There is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt
Tx:13.72  not of Him. Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you teach  yourself that what is not of God has power over you. The causeless
Tx:13.73 Whenever you decide to make decisions for  yourself, you are thinking destructively, and the decision will be
Tx:13.73  which led to it. It is not true that you can make decisions by  yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of God's Son can be
Tx:13.73  to it. It is not true that you can make decisions by yourself or for  yourself alone. No thought of God's Son can be separate or isolated
Tx:13.75 It will never happen that you will have to make decisions for  yourself. You are not bereft of help, and Help that knows the answer.
Tx:13.75  you be content with little, which is all that you alone can offer  yourself, when He Who gives you everything will simply offer it to
Tx:13.76  deny the truth of God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of  yourself in place of His calm and unswerving value of His Son?

Tx:13.81  love is given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one outside  yourself, alone without you. And so He gives you what is yours
Tx:13.81  any way by the decision. And everyone will be. Would you take unto  yourself the sole responsibility for deciding what can bring only
Tx:13.82  with Him and with everything that is within Him, as it is within  yourself. Unlearn isolation through His loving guidance and learn of
Tx:13.83  in doubt what you should do, think of His Presence in you and tell  yourself this and only this:
Tx:13.90 Decide that God is right and you are wrong about  yourself. He created you out of Himself but still within Him. He

Tx:14.11  No one can be untouched by teaching such as this. You will not see  yourself beyond the power of God if you teach only this. You will not
Tx:14.29  Leave that to Him Who knows. You are not asked to do mighty tasks  yourself. You are merely asked to do the little He suggests you do,
Tx:14.55  you are not alone and willing to remember it. Take no thought for  yourself, for no thought you hold is for yourself. If you would
Tx:14.55  it. Take no thought for yourself, for no thought you hold is for  yourself. If you would remember your Father, let the Holy Spirit
Tx:14.64  When your peace is threatened or disturbed in any way, say to  yourself,
Tx:14.66 By this refusal to attempt to teach  yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom God has given you will
Tx:14.68  so firmly bound to guilt and committed so to remain, establish for  yourself your guiltlessness? That is impossible. But be sure that you
Tx:14.75  they could not be of you. Leave room for Him, and you will find  yourself so filled with power that nothing will prevail against your
Tx:15.11  there is no change in God. In the holy instant in which you see  yourself as bright with freedom, you will remember God. For
Tx:15.12  of how long it would take to change your mind so completely, ask  yourself, “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a
Tx:15.14  perfect peace, and perfect love for everyone, for God, and for  yourself. As long as it takes to remember immortality and your
Tx:15.21  and begin to experience it as timeless, is to begin to experience  yourself as not separate. Fear not that you will not be given help in
Tx:15.22  could never be content with it. Littleness is the offering you gave  yourself. You offered this in place of magnitude, and you accepted
Tx:15.22  with the belief that it will bring you peace, you are belittling  yourself and blinding yourself to glory. Littleness and glory are the
Tx:15.22  it will bring you peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding  yourself to glory. Littleness and glory are the choices open to your
Tx:15.23  each time you choose is that your choice is your evaluation of  yourself. Choose littleness and you will not have peace, for you will
Tx:15.23  littleness and you will not have peace, for you will have judged  yourself unworthy of it. And whatever you offer as a substitute is
Tx:15.24 There is a deep responsibility you owe  yourself, and one which you must learn to remember all the time. The
Tx:15.24  what you think you are and represents the value that you put upon  yourself. Believe the little can content you, and by limiting
Tx:15.24  upon yourself. Believe the little can content you, and by limiting  yourself, you will not be satisfied. For your function is not little,
Tx:15.26  make on behalf of His dear Son. Search for the little, and you deny  yourself His power. God is not willing that His Son be content with
Tx:15.28  can be content with littleness are the decisions you have made about  yourself. The power and the glory that lie in you from God are for
Tx:15.30  Before the greatness that lives in you, your poor appreciation of  yourself and all the little offerings you have given slip into
Tx:15.31 Remember that you learn not for  yourself alone, no more than I did. It is because I learned for you
Tx:15.32  are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept anything for  yourself. But you will gladly give, having received. The host of God
Tx:15.33  to the plan of God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace  yourself, salvation will be given you. Yet think not you can
Tx:15.38  that you alone cannot know where it is and can only deceive  yourself.
Tx:15.41  would not share and that salvation lies in keeping your thoughts to  yourself alone. For in private thoughts, known only to yourself, you
Tx:15.41  thoughts to yourself alone. For in private thoughts, known only to  yourself, you think you find a way to keep what you would have alone
Tx:15.43  to accept perfect communication as long as you would hide it from  yourself. For what you would hide is hidden from you.
Tx:15.44  deception and seek not to protect the thoughts you would keep unto  yourself. Let the Holy Spirit's purity shine them away and bring all
Tx:15.46  you are alone. To be alone is to be guilty. For to experience  yourself as alone is to deny the oneness of the Father and his Son
Tx:15.50  but you have also judged against both. Yet you had judged against  yourself first, or you would never have imagined that you needed them
Tx:15.50  imagined that you needed them as they were not. Unless you had seen  yourself as without love, you could not have judged them so like you
Tx:15.52  the values from the past, you would see them all the same and like  yourself. Nor would you see any separation between yourself and them.
Tx:15.52  the same and like yourself. Nor would you see any separation between  yourself and them. In the holy instant, you see in each relationship
Tx:15.56  ability to satisfy you completely arises only from perfect faith in  yourself. And this you cannot have while guilt remains. And there
Tx:15.57 You have so little faith in  yourself because you are unwilling to accept the fact that perfect
Tx:15.58  and what you gain he loses. Someone must always lose if you perceive  yourself as weak. Yet there is another interpretation of
Tx:15.59  that, like your Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can give  yourself completely, wholly without loss, and only with gain.
Tx:15.63  idea of peace, for in ideas minds can communicate. If you would give  yourself as your Father gives His Self, you will learn to understand
Tx:15.68  to but one insane belief—that the more anger you invest outside  yourself, the safer you become.
Tx:15.75  with you while you believe that to communicate is to make  yourself alone? It is clearly insane to believe that by communicating
Tx:15.78  makes you His in your awareness. And here it is that you experience  yourself as you were created and as you are.
Tx:15.93  of receiving sacrifice as God is, and every sacrifice you ask of  yourself, you ask of me. Learn now that sacrifice of any kind is
Tx:15.99 You think that everyone outside  yourself demands your sacrifice, but you do not see that only you
Tx:15.99  but you do not see that only you demand sacrifice and only of  yourself. Yet the demand of sacrifice is so savage and so fearful
Tx:15.100  to understand. Do not try to project it from you and see it outside  yourself. In you are both the question and the answer—the demand
Tx:15.101  solely of your making. And seek not safety by attempting to protect  yourself from where it is not. Your brothers and your Father have
Tx:15.102  sign of Christmas is a star, a light in darkness. See it not outside  yourself but shining in the Heaven within and accept it as the sign
Tx:15.103  Christmas, give the Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let  yourself be healed completely that you may join with Him in healing,
Tx:15.104  God. Through guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from  yourself. Through peace you invite them back and realize that they
Tx:15.104  they are where your invitation bids them be. What you excluded from  yourself seems fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to
Tx:15.105  as you perceive the body as your reality, so long will you perceive  yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long will you also perceive
Tx:15.105  yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long will you also perceive  yourself as a victim of sacrifice, justified in sacrificing others.
Tx:15.106  recognize it. The meaning of love lies in what you have cast outside  yourself, and it has no meaning at all apart from you. It is what you
Tx:16.11  another way in which you would still try to keep understanding to  yourself. A better and far more helpful way to think of miracles is
Tx:16.19  you, nor will you ever do so. You have never tried to solve anything  yourself and been successful. Is it not time you brought these facts
Tx:16.22  and they shall know themselves.” For it is certain that you judge  yourself according to your teaching. The ego's teaching produces
Tx:16.22  your choice. And this acceptance means that you are willing to judge  yourself accordingly. Cause and effect are very clear in the ego's
Tx:16.22  And would you not have faith in what you have so diligently taught  yourself to believe? Yet remember how much care you have exerted in
Tx:16.23  Sonship as one? And does it not also show you that you do not regard  yourself as one? For it is impossible to teach successfully wholly
Tx:16.23  you did believe in it. And it must be that what you taught came from  yourself. And yet, this Self you clearly do not know and do not
Tx:16.24 This is a course in how to know  yourself. You have taught what you are but have not let what you are
Tx:16.24  be that has not learned it? It must be this that is really outside  yourself, not by your own projection, but in truth. And it is this
Tx:16.24  between truth and illusion can only be resolved by separating  yourself from the illusion and not from truth.
Tx:16.25  to you for their creation they offer gladly to your teaching of  yourself, who is their home. You who are host to God are also host to
Tx:16.26  have taught this, and from far off in the universe, yet not beyond  yourself, the witnesses to your teaching have gathered to help you
Tx:16.26  and apart from it. But with them you must learn that you but taught  yourself and learned from the conviction you shared with them.
Tx:16.31  through this last undoing quite unharmed and will at last emerge as  yourself. This is the last step in the readiness for God. Be not
Tx:16.35  seek for love but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within  yourself which you have built against it. It is not necessary to seek
Tx:16.35  from one illusion into another must fail. If you seek love outside  yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred within and are
Tx:16.39 The bridge that leads to union in  yourself must lead to knowledge, for it was built with God beside you
Tx:16.54  evident impossibility? For if it were possible, you would have made  yourself helpless. God is not angry. He merely could not let this
Tx:16.56  And to the same extent you are denying truth, and so are making  yourself unable to make the simple choice between truth and illusion,
Tx:16.57  And unless love's meaning is restored to you, you cannot know  yourself, who shares its meaning. Separation is only the decision not
Tx:16.57  who shares its meaning. Separation is only the decision not to know  yourself. Its whole thought system is a carefully contrived learning
Tx:16.59 The search for the special relationship is the sign that you equate  yourself with the ego and not with God. For the special relationship
Tx:16.60 Love is freedom. To look for it by placing  yourself in bondage is to separate yourself from it. For the love of
Tx:16.60  To look for it by placing yourself in bondage is to separate  yourself from it. For the love of God, no longer seek for union in
Tx:16.66  will abide with you. Your love for it will not allow you to betray  yourself, and you could not enter into a relationship where it could
Tx:16.74  is that the special relationship is the acting out of vengeance on  yourself. But what else could it be? In seeking the special
Tx:16.74  be? In seeking the special relationship, you look not for glory in  yourself. You have denied that it is there, and the relationship
Tx:17.3  must do to your appreciation of the whole! What you reserve unto  yourself, you take away from Him Who would release you. Unless you
Tx:17.6  to solve his problems through fantasy, you are refusing to forgive  yourself for just this same attempt. And you are holding both of you
Tx:17.7  He was created to see this for you until you learn to see it for  yourself. And all His teaching leads to seeing it and giving thanks
Tx:17.15  witness will enable you to think guiltily of another and not harm  yourself. They speak so clearly for the separation that no one not
Tx:17.16  as their purpose the exclusion of the truth about the other and of  yourself. This is why you see in both what is not there and make of
Tx:17.54  result, you do not realize that it is with you still. And by cutting  yourself off from its expression, you have denied yourself its
Tx:17.54  And by cutting yourself off from its expression, you have denied  yourself its benefit. You reinforce this every time you attack each
Tx:17.54  every time you attack each other, for the attack must blind you to  yourself. And it is impossible to deny yourself and recognize what
Tx:17.54  the attack must blind you to yourself. And it is impossible to deny  yourself and recognize what has been given and received by you.
Tx:17.64  To remove the problem elsewhere is to keep it. For you remove  yourself from it and make it unsolvable.
Tx:17.65  that all your problems have been solved, but you have removed  yourself from the solution? Yet faith must be where something has
Tx:17.68 Every situation in which you find  yourself is but a means to meet the purpose set for your
Tx:17.71  in every aspect and complete in every part. You can leave nothing of  yourself outside it and keep the situation holy. For it shares the
Tx:17.78  His faithlessness did this to him. Think carefully before you let  yourself use faithlessness against him. For he is risen, and you have
Tx:18.8  gently by the hand and retraces with you your mad journey outside  yourself, leading you gently back to the truth and safety within. He
Tx:18.14  outraged by the “attack.” This would not be your wish unless you saw  yourself as one with the ego, which always looks upon itself and
Tx:18.19  is your determination to keep your hold on unreality and to prevent  yourself from waking. And while you see more value in sleeping than
Tx:18.33  it is. And in your willingness for this lies also your acceptance of  yourself as you were meant to be.
Tx:18.34  it. And what is this but the determination to be as you would make  yourself? God did not create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And
Tx:18.35  Will. You have been wrong in thinking that it is needful to prepare  yourself for Him. It is impossible to make arrogant preparations for
Tx:18.35  nor can you make him different. Would you first make a miracle  yourself and then expect one to be made for you?
Tx:18.36  is given. In preparing for the holy instant, do not attempt to make  yourself holy to be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse your
Tx:18.36  is of God alone and therefore for you. Rather than seek to prepare  yourself for Him, try to think thus:
Tx:18.38  fearful. And it is only fear that you will add if you prepare  yourself for love. The preparation for the holy instant belongs to
Tx:18.41  fear to happy dreams from which you waken easily to knowledge. Put  yourself not in charge of this, for you cannot distinguish between
Tx:18.45 It is no dream to love your brother as  yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a dream. All that remains of
Tx:18.50  belief that you could give and get something else, something outside  yourself, has cost you the awareness of Heaven and the loss of your
Tx:18.55  The minds are joined, but you do not identify with them. You see  yourself locked in a separate prison, removed and unreachable,
Tx:18.56  you set aside to house your hate is not a prison but an illusion of  yourself. The body is a limit imposed on the universal communication
Tx:18.57  without alternative. And so it is. You cannot put a barrier around  yourself because God placed none between Himself and you.
Tx:18.59  realize that it is a sudden unawareness of the body and a joining of  yourself and something else in which your mind enlarges to encompass
Tx:18.59  it. You have accepted this instead of the body and have let  yourself be one with something beyond it simply by not letting your
Tx:18.62  irresistible appeal the holy instant holds. It calls to you to be  yourself within its safe embrace. There are the laws of limit lifted
Tx:18.62  of mind and freedom. Come to this place of refuge, where you can be  yourself in peace. Not through destruction, not through a “breaking
Tx:18.71  was made to limit you. Can you who see yourselves within a body know  yourself as an idea? Everything you recognize you identify with
Tx:18.77 Do not accept this little fenced-off aspect as  yourself. The sun and ocean are as nothing beside what you are. The
Tx:18.80  locked away from love and leaving you inside. And you will recognize  yourself and see your little garden gently transformed into the
Tx:18.84  must be corrected at its source. Therefore, it is the tiny part of  yourself, the little thought that seems split off and separate, which
Tx:18.92  no more impenetrable and no more substantial. You will not bruise  yourself against them in traveling through. Let your Guide teach you
Tx:19.6 Both cannot be together nor perceived in the same place. To dedicate  yourself to both is to set up a goal forever impossible to attain,
Tx:19.10  is to heal. It is the sign that you have accepted the Atonement for  yourself and would therefore share it. By faith you offer the gift of
Tx:19.11  loving Father, loved by Him like you and therefore loved by you as  yourself. It is His love that joins you, and for His love you would
Tx:19.24  to be sinful than mistaken. Yet think you carefully before you allow  yourself to make this choice. Approach it not lightly, for it is the
Tx:19.36  separate, but your Redeemer would have you look upon each other as  yourself. Your relationship is now a temple of healing—a place
Tx:19.58 To think you could be satisfied and happy with so little is to hurt  yourself, and to limit the happiness that you would have calls upon
Tx:19.65  end of guilt, remembering that what I signify to you, you see within  yourself?
Tx:19.71  really punitive at all. It is but the inevitable result of equating  yourself with the body, which is the invitation to pain. For it
Tx:19.74  that for your message of attack and guilt will someone other than  yourself suffer. And even if you suffer, yet someone else will suffer
Tx:19.74  peace, it urges you to send out all your messages of hate and free  yourself. And to convince you this is possible, it bids the body
Tx:19.101  is very fearful. And you attack him still, to keep what seems to be  yourself unharmed. Yet in his hands is your salvation. You see his
Tx:20.7  their own. Here is the value that you lay upon your brother and on  yourself. Here is your gift to both; your judgment on the Son of God
Tx:20.7  Offer him thorns and you are crucified. Offer him lilies and it is  yourself you free.
Tx:20.18  adjust to it, and it to you. Nor is there any difference between  yourself and it in your perception, which made them both.
Tx:20.19  this up. It is a picture of what you think you are, of how you see  yourself. A murderer is frightened, and those who kill fear death.
Tx:20.20  look through happy eyes? The world you see is but a judgment on  yourself. It is not there at all. Yet judgment lays a sentence on it,
Tx:20.20  it, and makes it real. Such is the world you see—a judgment on  yourself and made by you. This sickly picture of yourself is
Tx:20.20  see—a judgment on yourself and made by you. This sickly picture of  yourself is carefully preserved by the ego, whose image it is and
Tx:20.35  way to peace is open. Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But ask  yourself if it is possible that God would have a plan for your
Tx:20.65  achieve its purpose through the means of sin? Judgment you taught  yourself; vision is learned from Him Who would undo your teaching.
Tx:20.74  you did this. Once you accept this simple fact and take unto  yourself the power you gave them, you are released from them. One
Tx:21.2 Damnation is your judgment on  yourself, and this you will project upon the world. See it as damned,
Tx:21.2  [The world you see but shows you how much joy you have allowed  yourself to see in you and to accept as yours. And if this is its
Tx:21.9  you knew so long ago and held more dear than any melody you taught  yourself to cherish since.
Tx:21.16 Deceive  yourself no longer that you are helpless in the face of what is done
Tx:21.17  you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give  yourself. For by this gift is given you the power to release your
Tx:21.19  testimony, and as it gave it back to you, you listened and convinced  yourself that what it saw was true. You did this to yourself. See
Tx:21.19  and convinced yourself that what it saw was true. You did this to  yourself. See only this, and you will also see how circular the
Tx:21.19  you look upon the change in him, it will be given you to see it in  yourself.
Tx:21.26  made the world you see as that you recognize that you did not create  yourself. They are the same mistake. Nothing created not by your
Tx:21.26  to do so, you are denying your Creator and believing that you made  yourself. For if you think the world you made has power to make you
Tx:21.29  bargain in the name of “fairness,” sometimes demanding payment of  yourself, perhaps more often of the other. Thus in the “fairness” you
Tx:21.50  and see what it directs you see, and it is sure that you will see  yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You will experience
Tx:21.59  If it can correct and you allow it not to do so, you deny it to  yourself and to your brother. And if he shares this same belief, you
Tx:21.59  both will think that you are damned. This you could spare him and  yourself. For reason would not make way for correction in you alone.
Tx:21.60  it can. Yet reason tells you that you cannot see your brother or  yourself as sinful and still perceive the other innocent. Who looks
Tx:21.62  the body against your reason, you will not understand the body or  yourself.
Tx:21.64  tell you that this fact is your release. Neither your brother nor  yourself can be attacked alone. But neither can accept a miracle
Tx:21.65  of his errors and make him whole. The instant that you choose to let  yourself be healed, in that same instant is his whole salvation seen
Tx:21.78  on the effects of sin in any form, all you need do is simply ask  yourself,
Tx:22.5  if you are his will, what you must then believe is that you are not  yourself. You can indeed believe this, and you do. And you have faith
Tx:22.5  of being disconnected, and your haunting fear of lack of meaning in  yourself arise? It is as though you wandered in without a plan of any
Tx:22.7  are something else, this “something else” which you have made to be  yourself became your sight. Yet it must be the “something else” which
Tx:22.11  was you. He was not given there, nor was received by anything except  yourself. For no two people can unite except through Christ, Whose
Tx:22.21  but what you made believes it is not so. Now must you choose between  yourself and an illusion of yourself. Not both, but one. There is no
Tx:22.21  is not so. Now must you choose between yourself and an illusion of  yourself. Not both, but one. There is no point in trying to avoid
Tx:22.26  of him what God has given him for you, not what you tried to give  yourself.
Tx:22.28  from all effects of sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for  yourself? Can you reach Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to
Tx:22.28  and God created it for you. Look on your holy brother, sinless as  yourself, and let him lead you there.
Tx:22.36  gave him not his holiness but tried to see your sins in him to save  yourself. And yet his holiness is your forgiveness. Can you be saved
Tx:22.47  uncertainty can be defensive. And all uncertainty is doubt about  yourself.
Tx:22.50  the need arise to be defensive about anything, you have identified  yourself with an illusion. And therefore feel that you are weak
Tx:22.56  The gentle service that you give the Holy Spirit is service to  yourself. You who are now His means must love all that He loves. And
Tx:22.60  Is this humility? You do not see what this belief has done. You see  yourself as vulnerable, frail, and easily destroyed and at the mercy
Tx:22.61  separate because of fear. For it seems safer to attack another or  yourself than to attack the great Creator of the universe, whose
Tx:22.62  the whole, the Son without the Father, and to attack another without  yourself or hurt yourself without the other feeling pain. And this
Tx:22.62  without the Father, and to attack another without yourself or hurt  yourself without the other feeling pain. And this belief you want.
Tx:23.2 How strange indeed becomes this war against  yourself! You will believe that everything you use for sin can hurt
Tx:23.8 Do you not realize a war against  yourself would be a war on God? Is victory conceivable? And if it
Tx:23.9 Be certain that it is impossible God and the ego, or  yourself and it, will ever meet. You seem to meet and make your
Tx:23.9 —an error in your self-appraisal. The ego joins with an illusion of  yourself you share with it. And yet illusions cannot join. They are
Tx:23.10 Brothers, the war against  yourself is almost over. The journey's end is at the place of peace.
Tx:23.11  what shall be part of you and what is kept apart. The war against  yourself was undertaken to teach the Son of God that he is not
Tx:23.11  and you have not forgotten what you are. Only a strange illusion of  yourself, a wish to triumph over what you are, remembers not.
Tx:23.12 The war against  yourself is but the battle of two illusions, struggling to make them
Tx:23.13  when you have learned you cannot be in conflict. One illusion about  yourself can battle with another, yet the war of two illusions is a
Tx:23.14  is not part of you. And by attacking it, you make two illusions of  yourself in conflict with each other. And this occurs whenever you
Tx:23.14  through battle. Why would you fill your world with conflicts with  yourself? Let all this madness be undone for you and turn in peace to
Tx:23.16 The stillness of your certainty of Him and of  yourself is home to both of you, who dwell as one and not apart. Open
Tx:23.27  thus it fails to recognize that you can never take away save from  yourself. Yet all the other laws must lead to this. For enemies do
Tx:23.28  been withheld; and the inevitable loss the enemy must suffer to save  yourself. Thus do the guilty ones protest their “innocence.” Were
Tx:24.12  by comparison with what you see. Nor do you understand it is  yourself that you diminish thus.
Tx:24.13  value specialness is to esteem an alien will to which illusions of  yourself are dearer than the truth.
Tx:24.18  his function, any more than you can change the truth in him and in  yourself. But be you certain that the truth is just the same in both.
Tx:24.19 Think of the loveliness that you will see within  yourself when you have looked on him as on a friend. He is the enemy
Tx:24.20  so encompassing that nothing stands outside. Leave all illusions of  yourself outside this place to which you come in hope and honesty.
Tx:24.24  for conflict everlasting. Here are the gates of hell you closed upon  yourself, to rule in madness and in loneliness your special kingdom,
Tx:24.25  You but emerge from an illusion of what you are to the acceptance of  yourself as God created you.
Tx:24.27  your puny might against the Will of God. And thus it stands against  yourself; your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to split you off
Tx:24.27  brother's birthright to it, leaving him alone and unforgiven and  yourself in sin beside him, both in misery before the idol that can
Tx:24.33  but that your will be done. They seek your love that you may love  yourself. Love not your specialness instead of them. The print of
Tx:24.34 Specialness is a lack of trust in anyone except  yourself. Faith is invested in yourself alone. Everything else
Tx:24.34  is a lack of trust in anyone except yourself. Faith is invested in  yourself alone. Everything else becomes your enemy—feared and
Tx:24.34  and salvation can only mean destruction of the world, except  yourself.
Tx:24.36 You can but hurt  yourself. This has been oft repeated but is difficult to grasp as
Tx:24.43  already loosened from the bone and sightless holes for eyes, is like  yourself?
Tx:24.45  His love for God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within  yourself. His holiness shows you Himself in him whose hand you hold
Tx:24.45  hand you hold and whom you lead to Him. And what you see is like  yourself. For what but Christ is there to see and hear and love and
Tx:24.47  And would He give a brother unto you except he be as perfect as  yourself and just as like to Him in holiness as you must be?
Tx:24.48  be doubt before there can be conflict. And every doubt must be about  yourself. Christ has no doubt, and from His certainty His quiet
Tx:24.49  is so lies in your brother, offered you that all your doubts about  yourself may disappear before his holiness. See in him God's
Tx:24.51  your own. It is His Will you share His love for you and look upon  yourself as lovingly as He conceived of you before the world began
Tx:24.52  by time, and all appearances, you will not know the Father nor  yourself. For you will use the world for what is not its purpose and
Tx:24.55  in your brother's holiness that you might see the truth about  yourself set forth at last in terms you recognized and understood?
Tx:24.56  it is not a part of him who stands beside you. He is the mirror of  yourself wherein you see the judgment you have laid on both of you.
Tx:24.58  be what governs part of God holds not for all the rest. You place  yourself under the laws you see as ruling him. Think, then, how great
Tx:24.59 Specialness is the function which you gave  yourself. It stands for you alone, as self-created, self-maintained,
Tx:24.65 Ask  yourself this: can you protect the mind? The body, yes, a little—
Tx:24.70 Look at  yourself, and you will see a body. Look at this body in a different
Tx:24.70  your hands and hear it move. Here is an image that you want to be  yourself. It is the means to make your wish come true. It gives the
Tx:24.71 Thus is the body made a theory of  yourself with no provisions made for evidence beyond itself and no
Tx:24.72  without a meeting-place and no encounter. One do you see outside  yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests within, His Father's
Tx:25.5  that you are there. And every body that you look upon reminds you of  yourself—your sinfulness, your evil, and above all, your death. And
Tx:25.5  message and the messenger are one. And you must see your brother as  yourself. Framed in his body, you will see your sinfulness wherein
Tx:25.6 Perception is a choice of what you want  yourself to be—the world you want to live in and the state in which
Tx:25.6  where you think your safety lies, at your decision. It reveals  yourself to you as you would have you be. And always is it faithful
Tx:25.14  you still from giving up the hopeless and unrewarding task you set  yourself. Can it make sense to hold the fixed belief that there is
Tx:25.21 Forgive your brother, and you cannot separate  yourself from him nor from his Father. You need no forgiveness, for
Tx:25.22  him the sinfulness he sees, but give him honor that you may esteem  yourself and him. To each of you is given the power of salvation that
Tx:25.35 Would you not do this for the love of God? And for  yourself? For think what it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts
Tx:25.38  be afraid with “enemies” like these? And must you not be fearful of  yourself? For you have hurt yourself and made your Self your “enemy.”
Tx:25.38  these? And must you not be fearful of yourself? For you have hurt  yourself and made your Self your “enemy.” And now you must believe
Tx:25.38  And now you must believe you are not you but something alien to  yourself and “something else,” a “something” to be feared instead of
Tx:25.42  walk the way you pointed out to him because it is your judgment on  yourself.
Tx:25.50 And if the Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon  yourself into a blessing, then it cannot be a sin. Sin is the one
Tx:25.56  needs and to the special time and place in which you think you find  yourself and where you can be free of place and time and all that you
Tx:25.63  this He needs—that you prefer He take it than that you keep it for  yourself alone and recognize that what brings loss to no one you
Tx:25.71  what you see He offers you and what you recognize you could not give  yourself.
Tx:25.72  you deserve but understands as well that you cannot accept it for  yourself. It is His special function to hold out to you the gifts the
Tx:25.75  world, which is but shadows of all that is really happening within  yourself. The understanding which you need comes not of you but from
Tx:25.77  love decide and never fear that you in your unfairness will deprive  yourself of what God's justice has allotted you.
Tx:25.84  to solve for you means that you want it solved. To keep it for  yourself to solve without His help is to decide it should remain
Tx:25.86  That is why your sole responsibility must be to take forgiveness for  yourself. The miracle that you receive, you give. Each one becomes an
Tx:26.1 —a giving up of power in the name of saving just a little for  yourself. To see a brother in another body separate from yours is the
Tx:26.3  incomplete to keep its own identity intact. In this perception of  yourself, the body's loss would be a sacrifice indeed. For sight of
Tx:26.3  limits on each brother whom you see. For you must see him as you see  yourself.
Tx:26.5  to every meager scrap and tiny crumb of happiness that you allot  yourself.
Tx:26.6  But judge him not, for you will hear no song of liberation for  yourself nor see what it is given him to witness to that you may see
Tx:26.14  give but some mistakes to be corrected while you keep the others to  yourself, remember this: justice is total. There is no such thing as
Tx:26.14  not look at what is there to see? Each time you keep a problem for  yourself to solve or judge that it is one which has no resolution,
Tx:26.15  that some injustices are fair and good and necessary to preserve  yourself. It is these problems that you think are great and cannot be
Tx:26.38  Father has ensured must come to you. And from your own unfairness to  yourself has He protected you. You cannot lose your way because there
Tx:26.54 Sins are beliefs which you impose between your brother and  yourself. They limit you to time and place and give a little space to
Tx:26.54  Forgiveness takes away what stands between your brother and  yourself. It is the wish that you be joined with him and not apart.
Tx:26.62  same. If you believe what is the same is different, you but deceive  yourself. What God calls one will be forever one, not separate. His
Tx:26.78  still? Forget not that a shadow held between your brother and  yourself obscures the face of Christ and memory of God. And would you
Tx:26.87  are is but another form of the idea you are deprived by someone not  yourself. Projection of the cause of sacrifice is at the root of
Tx:26.87  be unfair and not your just deserts. Yet it is you who ask this of  yourself in deep injustice to the Son of God. You have no enemy
Tx:26.87  in deep injustice to the Son of God. You have no enemy except  yourself, and you are enemy indeed to him because you do not know him
Tx:26.87  and you are enemy indeed to him because you do not know him as  yourself. What could be more unjust than that he be deprived of what
Tx:26.88 Beware of the temptation to perceive  yourself unfairly treated. In this view, you seek to find an
Tx:26.89  one goal is but to take away all purpose from the world and from  yourself. And each unfairness that the world appears to lay upon you,
Tx:26.90  brought can you perceive to lighten up your way. And so you see  yourself deprived of light, abandoned to the dark, unfairly left
Tx:27.1  or you will weave a crown of thorns from which your brother and  yourself will not escape. You cannot crucify yourself alone. And if
Tx:27.1  which your brother and yourself will not escape. You cannot crucify  yourself alone. And if you are unfairly treated, he must suffer the
Tx:27.1  he must suffer the unfairness that you see. You cannot sacrifice  yourself alone. For sacrifice is total. If it could occur at all, it
Tx:27.2  do you see as proof that he is guilty of attack. Thus would you make  yourself to be the sign that he has lost his innocence and need but
Tx:27.2  to him, and when it rests on him are you set free. Wish not to make  yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you will not escape the
Tx:27.3  where you are beyond attack and prove his innocence. The picture of  yourself you offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith.
Tx:27.3  prove his innocence. The picture of yourself you offer him you show  yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to
Tx:27.3  your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of  yourself in which there is no pain and no reproach at all. And what
Tx:27.7  represent. And each has many voices, speaking to your brother and  yourself in different tongues. And yet to both the message is the
Tx:27.10  brother that sin can have no cause. How futile must it be to see  yourself a picture of the proof that what your function is can never
Tx:27.12  of a purpose to a thing you made to hide your function from  yourself. This thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that
Tx:27.16  is not real unless it brings a healing to your brother and  yourself. You must attest his sins had no effect on you to
Tx:27.16  In their undoing lies the proof that they were merely errors. Let  yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to
Tx:27.16  that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to your brother and  yourself. A broken body shows the mind has not been healed. A miracle
Tx:27.19  an equal gift of full deliverance from guilt upon your brother and  yourself. Your healing saves him pain as well as you, and you are
Tx:27.22  Identity and function are the same, and by your function do you know  yourself. And thus, if you confuse your function with the function of
Tx:27.22  function with the function of Another, you must be confused about  yourself and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to take
Tx:27.26  will not even see. The focus of correction has been placed outside  yourself on one who cannot be a part of you while this perception
Tx:27.26  focus of your hate, unworthy to be part of you and thus outside  yourself—the other half which is denied. And only what is left
Tx:27.47  A dying world asks only that you rest an instant from attack upon  yourself, that it be healed.
Tx:27.49  taught. No reinforcement will its thanks withhold from you who let  yourself be healed that it might live. It will call forth its
Tx:27.52  unlimited. Your part is merely to apply what He has taught you to  yourself, and He will do the rest. And thus the power of your
Tx:27.53  will learn that peace is given you when you accept the healing for  yourself. Its total value need not be appraised by you to let you
Tx:27.67  beheld. In separation from your brother was the first attack upon  yourself begun. And it is this the world bears witness to. Seek not
Tx:27.68  guilt was not among them. Nor did you in any way request them for  yourself. This is how all illusions come about. The one who makes
Tx:27.72 A brother separated from  yourself, an ancient enemy, a murderer who stalks you in the night
Tx:27.83  done to you. The guilt for what you thought is being placed outside  yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your dreams and thinks
Tx:27.84  this petulant device to keep your innocence by pushing guilt outside  yourself but never letting go! It is not easy to perceive the jest
Tx:27.86 The secret of salvation is but this: that you are doing this unto  yourself. No matter what the form of the attack, this still is true.
Tx:27.89  lesson truly learned. Salvation is a secret you have kept but from  yourself. The universe proclaims it so. Yet to its witnesses you pay
Tx:27.90 This is the obvious—a secret kept from no one but  yourself. And it is this that has maintained you separate from the
Tx:28.6  attributes with which you seek to keep concealed the truth about  yourself. Time neither takes away nor can restore. And yet you make
Tx:28.7 Remember nothing that you taught  yourself, for you were badly taught. And who would keep a senseless
Tx:28.18  your “creations,” you the “other” mind, creating with effects unlike  yourself. And as their “father,” you must be like them. Nothing at
Tx:28.18  must be like them. Nothing at all has happened but that you have put  yourself to sleep and dreamed a dream in which you were an alien to
Tx:28.18  yourself to sleep and dreamed a dream in which you were an alien to  yourself and but a part of someone else's dream.
Tx:28.33  be gone and clutch them not with eager hands, to keep them for  yourself. The miracle will brush them all aside and thus make room
Tx:28.37 Accepting the Atonement for  yourself means not to give support to someone's dream of sickness and
Tx:28.38  form they take, for you will lose identity in them. You find  yourself by not accepting them as causing you and giving you effects.
Tx:28.38  you are but a dream. And what is real and what is but illusion in  yourself you do not know and cannot tell apart.
Tx:28.53  behold the innocence and emptiness of sin that you will see within  yourself when you have lost the fear of recognizing love.
Tx:28.57  apart. This is the secret oath you take again, whenever you perceive  yourself attacked. No one can suffer if he does not see himself
Tx:28.61  because it is a part of God Himself. Are you not sick if you deny  yourself your wholeness and your health, the Source of help, the Call
Tx:29.1  do you believe, when you perceive a gap between your brother and  yourself. How could you trust Him, then? For He must be deceptive in
Tx:29.10  on it as a simple way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to find  yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up nothing,
Tx:29.16  To change is to attain a state unlike the one in which you found  yourself before. There is no change in immortality, and Heaven knows
Tx:29.22 You cannot wake  yourself. Yet you can let yourself be wakened. You can overlook your
Tx:29.22 You cannot wake yourself. Yet you can let  yourself be wakened. You can overlook your brother's dreams. So
Tx:29.33 This sacred Son of God is like  yourself—the mirror of his Father's love for you, the soft reminder
Tx:29.37  dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a world outside  yourself. And leading finally beyond all dreams unto the peace of
Tx:29.40  for you and establish it as changeless and eternal. You can give  yourself a purpose that you do not have. But you can not remove the
Tx:29.43 Seek not outside  yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each time an idol
Tx:29.43  and find the happiness His answer brings. Seek not outside  yourself. For all your pain comes simply from a futile search for
Tx:29.43  But it is given you to know the truth and not to seek for it outside  yourself.
Tx:29.46  loss. And by this giving up is life renounced. Seek not outside  yourself. The search implies you are not whole within and fear to
Tx:29.46  and fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to seek outside  yourself for what you are.
Tx:29.48  maintain allegiance to the dream that you must find what is outside  yourself to be complete and happy. It is vain to worship idols in the
Tx:29.48  Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek outside  yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the past has given
Tx:29.49  what it is for. You try to see in it a place of idols found outside  yourself, with power to make complete what is within by splitting
Tx:29.51  do not seek to drown His Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of  yourself. Seek not outside your Father for your hope. For hope of
Tx:29.55  face of Christ because its purpose is to separate your brother from  yourself. A dark and fearful purpose, yet a thought without the power
Tx:29.61  raise him up? Hear then your story in the dream you made, and ask  yourself if it be not the truth that you believe that it is not a
Tx:29.62  can he know the Self he has condemned. Judge not, because you make  yourself a part of evil dreams where idols are your “true” identity
Tx:29.62  your salvation from the judgment laid in terror and in guilt upon  yourself.
Tx:29.70  dreams remind you that you live in safety and have not attacked  yourself. So do your childish terrors melt away and dreams become a
Tx:30.2  to form which sees you through the rest. It is not wise to let  yourself become preoccupied with every step you take. The proper set,
Tx:30.2  strong and dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not fight  yourself. But think about the kind of day you want and tell yourself
Tx:30.2  fight yourself. But think about the kind of day you want and tell  yourself there is a way in which this very day can happen just like
Tx:30.7  time you think of it and have a quiet moment for reflection, tell  yourself again the kind of day you want, the feelings you would have,
Tx:30.10  an answer that will work. Be certain this has happened if you feel  yourself unwilling to sit by and ask to have the answer given you.
Tx:30.10  and ask to have the answer given you. This means you have decided by  yourself and cannot see the question. Now you need a quick
Tx:30.11  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 say,
Tx:30.14  want. This can be very hard to realize when once you have decided by  yourself the rules which promise you a happy day. Yet this decision
Tx:30.20  to let you go ahead with just a few more steps you need to let  yourself be helped.
Tx:30.29  begin a happy day with the determination not to make decisions by  yourself. This seems to be a real decision in itself. And yet, you
Tx:30.29  be a real decision in itself. And yet, you cannot make decisions by  yourself. The only question really is with what you choose to make
Tx:30.29  a simple statement of a simple fact. You will not make decisions by  yourself whatever you decide. For they are made with idols or with
Tx:30.31  are not made in isolation. They are made by you and your advisor for  yourself and for the world as well. The day you want you offer to the
Tx:30.32  you will have the day you want and give it to the world by having it  yourself. Your judgment has been lifted from the world by your
Tx:30.33 Do you not understand that to oppose the Holy Spirit is to fight  yourself? He tells you but your will; He speaks for you. In His
Tx:30.34  willing you be free. And to oppose Him is to make a choice against  yourself and choose that you be bound.
Tx:30.40  unlimited. To seek a special person or a thing to add to you to make  yourself complete can only mean that you believe some form is
Tx:30.40  search for wholeness to be made beyond the boundaries of limits on  yourself.
Tx:30.49  are the false ideas you made to fill the gap you think arose between  yourself and what is true. And you attack them for the things you
Tx:30.52  which guarantee your safety. All illusions that you believe about  yourself obey no laws. They seem to dance a little while, according
Tx:30.54  will forever place you far beyond deception. You need not concern  yourself with how this will be done, for this you cannot understand.
Tx:30.55  no longer for the things you do not want. And you are asked to let  yourself be free of all the dreams of what you never were and seek no
Tx:30.62  the goal of sin and guilt. And all that stood between your image of  yourself and what you are, forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God
Tx:30.62  what is his be given back to him. The gap between your brother and  yourself was never there. And what the Son of God knew in creation,
Tx:30.75  from guilt for you. What can this be except a false forgiveness of  yourself and everyone who seems apart from you?
Tx:30.76  You must forgive God's Son entirely. Or you will keep an image of  yourself that is not whole and will remain afraid to look within and
Tx:30.78  is no way to think of him but this if you would know the truth about  yourself:
Tx:30.91  is given you, but not of God Who knows no limits. You have limited  yourself.
Tx:31.11  disaster and disunity and pain. Hear not the call for this within  yourself. But listen, rather, to the deeper call beyond it that
Tx:31.15  there appears to be the hope of satisfaction and of peace. You see  yourself divided into both these roles, forever split between the
Tx:31.15  the two. And every friend or enemy becomes a means to help you save  yourself from this.
Tx:31.17  For he is asking what will come to you because you see an image of  yourself and hear your voice requesting what you want.
Tx:31.23  all appearances, which are but ancient lessons that you taught  yourself about the sinfulness in you. Hear but his call for mercy and
Tx:31.24  as a brother, must his Father be the same as yours, as he is like  yourself.
Tx:31.27  your reality? And why do you attack them everywhere, except you hate  yourself? Are you a sin? You answer “yes” whenever you attack, for by
Tx:31.32  and there will be no ancient penalty exacted from your brother or  yourself. For God has said there is no sacrifice that can be asked;
Tx:31.40  and you can but decide how you would choose the better to deceive  yourself again. This course attempts to teach no more than that the
Tx:31.40  in the world depend on this—you choose between your brother and  yourself, and you will gain as much as he will lose, and what you
Tx:31.42 There is no road that leads away from Him. A journey from  yourself does not exist. How foolish and insane it is to think that
Tx:31.42  it, walking there without your own reality at one with you? Forgive  yourself your madness and forget all senseless journeys and all
Tx:31.44 A concept of the self is made by you. It bears no likeness to  yourself at all. It is an idol, made to take the place of your
Tx:31.50  begun and ended with the single aim of teaching you this concept of  yourself, that you will choose to follow this world's laws and never
Tx:31.50  and never seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see  yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this
Tx:31.52  and merely think of this—there are two parts to what you think  yourself to be. If one was generated by your brother, who was there
Tx:31.57  interacts with evil and reacts to wicked things? Your concept of  yourself will still remain quite meaningless. And you will not
Tx:31.57  And you will not perceive that you can interact but with  yourself. To see a guilty world is but the sign your learning has
Tx:31.57  learning has been guided by the world, and you behold it as you see  yourself. The concept of the self embraces all you look upon, and
Tx:31.58  show the changes in your own relationships as your perception of  yourself is changed. There will be some confusion every time there is
Tx:31.65  not where you believe you are nor what you think the truth about  yourself must really be. It makes no difference what you look upon
Tx:31.66  Son of God as you would have him be, forget not that no concept of  yourself will stand against the truth of what you are. Undoing truth
Tx:31.69  form, with content still concealed, to shake your sorry concept of  yourself and blacken it with still another “crime.” You cannot give
Tx:31.69  yourself and blacken it with still another “crime.” You cannot give  yourself your innocence, for you are too confused about yourself. But
Tx:31.69  cannot give yourself your innocence, for you are too confused about  yourself. But should one brother dawn upon your sight as wholly
Tx:31.69  your sight as wholly worthy of forgiveness, then your concept of  yourself is wholly changed. Your “evil” thoughts have been forgiven
Tx:31.70  a shadow circling round the good. And this will be your concept of  yourself, when you have reached the world beyond the sight your eyes
Tx:31.71 You live in that world just as much as this. For both are concepts of  yourself which can be interchanged, but never jointly held. The
Tx:31.71  is far greater than you think, for you will love this concept of  yourself because it was not made for you alone. Born as a gift for
Tx:31.71  made for you alone. Born as a gift for someone not perceived to be  yourself, it has been given you. For your forgiveness, offered unto
Tx:31.72 Have faith in him who walks with you, so that your fearful concept of  yourself may change. And look upon the good in him that you may not
Tx:31.72  more than this is asked. On its behalf, remember what the concept of  yourself which now you hold has brought you in its wake, and welcome
Tx:31.72  need for it is just the same as yours. And let the cruel concept of  yourself be changed to one which brings the peace of God.
Tx:31.73 The concept of  yourself which now you hold would guarantee your function here remain
Tx:31.73  have it yours. Alternatives are in your mind to use, and you can see  yourself another way. Would you not rather look upon yourself as
Tx:31.73  and you can see yourself another way. Would you not rather look upon  yourself as needed for salvation of the world instead of as
Tx:31.76  a space between you and your brother, kept apart by an illusion of  yourself which holds him off from you and you away from him. The
Tx:31.76  sword of judgment is the weapon which you give to the illusion of  yourself that it may fight to keep the space that holds your brother
Tx:31.76  love. Yet while you hold this sword, you must perceive the body as  yourself, for you are bound to separation from the sight of him who
Tx:31.77  in hell and misery? And what could this give rise to but an image of  yourself that can be miserable and remain in hell and torment? Who
Tx:31.79  you are the thing you wish to be. It will remain your concept of  yourself until the wish that fathered it no longer is held dear. But
Tx:31.79  simple choice of whether you would join with what you see or keep  yourself apart and separate.
Tx:31.80  of what your brother is as it is free of any judgment made upon  yourself. It sees no past in anyone at all. And thus it serves a
Tx:31.81  remembering that it is but a wish, insane and meaningless, to make  yourself a thing which you are not. And think as well upon the thing
Tx:31.88  prevail in every circumstance and every place you raised an image of  yourself before. For what appears to hide the face of Christ is
Tx:31.89 Learn then the happy habit of response to all temptation to perceive  yourself as weak and miserable with these words:
Tx:31.92  as weakness and as suffering and loss is but temptation to perceive  yourself defenseless and in hell. Yield not to this, and you will see
W1:I.4  specificity. Each one applies to every situation in which you find  yourself and to everything you see in it. Each day's exercises are
W1:I.5  None of this will matter nor decrease their efficacy. But allow  yourself to make no exceptions in applying the ideas the exercises
W1:4.1  only the thoughts you think are “bad.” You will find, if you train  yourself to look at your thoughts, that they represent such a mixture
W1:5.8 You may also find  yourself less willing to apply today's idea to some perceived sources
W1:6.4  the idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to others, remind  yourself of the two cautions stated in the previous lesson:
W1:10.4  and introduce them by repeating the idea for today quite slowly to  yourself. Then add:
W1:11.2  previous ones. Begin with eyes closed, and repeat the idea slowly to  yourself. Then open your eyes and look about, near or far, up or down
W1:11.2  the minute or so to be spent in using the idea, merely repeat it to  yourself, being sure to do so without haste and with no sense of
W1:11.3  exercises, close your eyes and repeat the idea once more, slowly, to  yourself.
W1:12.2  with eyes open. Look around you, this time quite slowly. Try to pace  yourself so that the slow shifting of your glance from one thing to
W1:12.2  even tempo throughout. What you see does not matter. You teach  yourself this as you give whatever your glance rests on equal
W1:12.3 As you look about you, say to  yourself:
W1:13.3  illusions are safety devices, as they must also be to you who equate  yourself with the ego.
W1:13.4  from the preceding ones. With eyes closed, repeat today's idea to  yourself. Then open your eyes and look about you slowly, saying:
W1:13.6 Repeat this statement to  yourself as you look about. Then close your eyes and conclude with:
W1:13.8  concluding statement. Whatever form such resistance may take, remind  yourself that you are really afraid of such a thought because of the
W1:15.4 In practicing the idea for today, repeat it first to  yourself, and then apply it to whatever you see around you, using its
W1:15.6  to continue to look at each subject while you repeat the idea to  yourself. The idea should be repeated quite slowly each time.
W1:16.5  as each one crosses your mind, hold it in awareness while you tell  yourself:
W1:17.2 In applying today's idea, say to  yourself, with eyes open:
W1:20.1  of the world depends on it. Yet you will not see if you regard  yourself as being coerced and if you give in to resentment and
W1:21.2 In the practice periods, begin by repeating the idea to  yourself. Then close your eyes and search your mind carefully for
W1:21.4  attack thoughts present themselves, hold each one in mind and tell  yourself:
W1:22.3  slowly from one object to another, from one body to another, say to  yourself:
W1:22.5 At the end of each practice period, ask  yourself:
W1:23.4 You see the world which you have made, but you do not see  yourself as the image-maker. You cannot be saved from the world, but

W1:24.9  for each unresolved situation that crosses your mind, say to  yourself:
W1:26.3 The idea for today introduces the thought that you always attack  yourself. If attack thoughts must entail the belief that you are
W1:26.3  you in your own eyes. Thus they have attacked your perception of  yourself. And because you believe in them, you can no longer believe
W1:26.3  And because you believe in them, you can no longer believe in  yourself. A false image of yourself has come to take the place of
W1:26.3  in them, you can no longer believe in yourself. A false image of  yourself has come to take the place of what you are.
W1:26.13 After you have named each outcome of which you are afraid, tell  yourself:
W1:27.6  occupied at the time. You can still repeat one short sentence to  yourself without disturbing anything that is going on.
W1:27.7  you were repeating today's idea, you can be sure that you have saved  yourself many years of effort.
W1:28.4  all else I want to see this table differently,” you are committing  yourself to seeing. It is not an exclusive commitment. It is a

W1:29.7  hour, looking slowly about you as you say the words unhurriedly to  yourself. At least once or twice you should experience a sense of
W1:30.3  throughout the day. Whenever you have a moment or so, repeat it to  yourself slowly, looking about you and trying to realize that the
W1:31.3  As you sit and quietly watch your thoughts, repeat today's idea to  yourself as often as you care to, but with no sense of hurry.
W1:31.4  the idea for today as often as possible during the day. Remind  yourself that you are making a declaration of independence in the
W1:31.5  It is a declaration that you will not yield to it and put  yourself in bondage.
W1:32.3  or three times while looking around at the world you see as outside  yourself. Then close your eyes and look around your inner world. Try
W1:32.4  select a time when few distractions are anticipated and when you  yourself feel reasonably ready.
W1:32.6  to any situation which may distress you. Apply the idea by telling  yourself:
W1:33.2  Merely glance casually around the world you perceive as outside  yourself, then close your eyes and survey your inner thoughts with
W1:33.5  to take a minute or so to sit quietly and repeat the idea to  yourself several times. Closing your eyes will probably help in this
W1:34.4  in thinking of specific subjects, continue to repeat the idea to  yourself in an unhurried manner, without applying it to anything in
W1:34.5  peace of mind is threatened in any way. The purpose is to protect  yourself from temptation throughout the day. If a specific form of

W1:35.1 Today's idea does not describe the way you see  yourself now. It does, however, describe what vision will show you.
W1:35.2  are part of where you think you are. That is because you surround  yourself with the environment you want. And you want it to protect
W1:35.2  the environment you want. And you want it to protect the image of  yourself that you have made. The image is part of this environment.
W1:35.3 The idea for today presents a very different view of  yourself. By establishing your Source, it establishes your Identity,
W1:35.4  practice periods today, begin by repeating today's idea to  yourself and then close your eyes and search your mind for the
W1:35.4  mind for the various kinds of descriptive terms in which you see  yourself. Include all of the ego-based attributes which you ascribe
W1:35.4  Include all of the ego-based attributes which you ascribe to  yourself, positive or negative, desirable or undesirable, grandiose
W1:35.4  debased. All of them are equally unreal because you do not look upon  yourself through the eyes of holiness.
W1:35.5  you consider to be the more negative aspects of your perception of  yourself. Toward the latter part of the exercise period, however,

W1:35.11  day, pick up a specific attribute or attributes you are ascribing to  yourself at the time and apply the idea for today to them, adding the
W1:35.11  If nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to  yourself with closed eyes.
W1:36.5  these practice periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea to  yourself. Then open your eyes and continue as before.
W1:38.2  sorrow, and can solve all problems. It can do so in connection with  yourself and with anyone else. It is equal in its power to help
W1:38.3  or suffering in any form that you happen to think of in  yourself or someone else. We will make no distinctions because there
W1:39.6 Begin the practice periods as usual by repeating today's idea to  yourself. Then with closed eyes search out your unloving thoughts in
W1:39.10  several short periods during which you merely repeat today's idea to  yourself slowly a few times. You may also find it helpful to include
W1:39.14  some three or four times an hour and more if possible, you may ask  yourself this question, repeat today's idea, or preferably both. If
W1:40.3  which you associate with being a Son of God, applying them to  yourself. One practice period might, for example, consist of the
W1:40.7 If only a brief period is available, merely telling  yourself that you are blessed as a Son of God will do.
W1:42.2  anywhere, wherever you are and in whatever circumstances you find  yourself. Your passage through time and space is not random. You
W1:42.3  sleep. It is better, however, to wait until you can sit quietly by  yourself at a time when you feel ready than it is to be concerned
W1:42.10  repeat the idea during the day, the more often you will be reminding  yourself that the goal of the course is important to you and that you
W1:43.5 At the beginning of these practice periods, repeat the idea to  yourself with eyes open. Then glance around you for a short time,
W1:43.12  vary according to the circumstances and situations in which you find  yourself during the day. When you are with someone else, for example,
W1:44.2  recognize that light is within, not without. You do not see outside  yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing outside you. An essential
W1:44.6  and fears are meaningless. You might find it helpful to remind  yourself from time to time that to reach light is to escape from
W1:45.6 Begin the exercises for today by repeating the idea to  yourself, closing your eyes as you do so. Spend a fairly short period
W1:45.6  four or five thoughts of your own, repeat the idea again, and tell  yourself gently:
W1:45.11  understanding you have already gained, you should be able to remind  yourself that this is no idle game but an exercise in holiness and an
W1:46.1  forgiveness are binding themselves to them. As you condemn only  yourself, so do you forgive only yourself.
W1:46.1  to them. As you condemn only yourself, so do you forgive only  yourself.
W1:46.3  Begin the longer practice periods by repeating today's idea to  yourself, as usual. Close your eyes as you do so and spend a minute
W1:46.6  of today's practice is to put you in the best position to forgive  yourself. After you have applied the idea for today to all those who
W1:46.6  applied the idea for today to all those who have come to mind, tell  yourself,
W1:47.2 Of  yourself, you can do none of these things. To believe that you can is
W1:47.4  which you have invested with fear, dismissing each one by telling  yourself,
W1:47.6  could deal with the situation successfully. It is not by trusting  yourself that you will gain confidence. But the strength of God in
W1:48.2  whenever possible to close your eyes and repeat the idea slowly to  yourself several times. It is particularly important that you use the
W1:50.3  all seeming difficulties without effort and in sure confidence. Tell  yourself this often today. It is a declaration of release from the
W1:50.3  the belief in idols. It is your acknowledgment of the truth about  yourself.
W1:R1.5  is not done by avoiding them and seeking a haven of isolation for  yourself. You will yet learn that peace is part of you and requires
W1:61.1  God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about  yourself. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of arrogance,
W1:61.4  to all temptation. It brings all the images you have made about  yourself to the truth and helps you depart in peace, unburdened and
W1:61.5  one need not exceed a minute or two. They should begin with telling  yourself:
W1:61.7  Let a few related thoughts come to you, and repeat the idea to  yourself if your mind wanders away from the central thought.
W1:61.8  Thus you will awaken with an acknowledgment of the truth about  yourself, reinforce it throughout the day, and turn to sleep as you
W1:62.1  light of the world. Through your forgiveness does the truth about  yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your forgiveness lies
W1:62.2 Illusions about  yourself and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift
W1:62.2  and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift to  yourself. Your goal is to find out who you are, having denied your
W1:62.5 As often as you can, closing your eyes if possible, say to  yourself:
W1:64.2  To the Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive  yourself what you think of as your sins. In this perception, the
W1:64.3  this and only the fear of the ego that induces you to regard  yourself as unworthy of the task assigned to you by God Himself.
W1:64.6 Prepare  yourself in advance for all the decisions you will make today by
W1:64.11  the thoughts and look slowly and unselectively about you, telling  yourself:
W1:65.1  and the relinquishment of all the other goals you have invented for  yourself. This is the only way in which you can take your rightful
W1:65.2  It places the key to the door of peace, which you have closed upon  yourself, in your own hands. It gives you the answer to all the
W1:65.5  the idea for today. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to  yourself once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever
W1:65.6  involvement or concern as possible, dismissing each one by telling  yourself:
W1:65.8  but do not strain or make undue effort in doing this. Then tell  yourself:
W1:67.5  and then try to reach past all your images and preconceptions about  yourself to the truth in you. If Love created you like Itself, this
W1:67.6  need to continue adding other thoughts related to the truth about  yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going past that and through
W1:67.6  to the awareness of a blazing light in which you recognize  yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you will do much
W1:67.7  idea for today as often as you can. You need to hear the truth about  yourself as frequently as possible because your mind is so
W1:67.7  hour, and perhaps even more, it would be most beneficial to remind  yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth about
W1:67.7  yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth about  yourself in this.
W1:67.8  the Voice of truth replacing everything that the ego tells you about  yourself with the simple truth about the Son of God. You were created
W1:68.1  a grievance is to forget who you are. To hold a grievance is to see  yourself as a body. It is the decision to let the ego rule your mind
W1:68.6  This has left you alone in all the universe in your perception of  yourself.
W1:68.9 Spend the remainder of the practice period trying to think of  yourself as completely at peace with everyone and everything, safe in
W1:68.9  can harm you in any way. At the end of the practice period tell  yourself:
W1:69.6  have thought about the importance of what you are trying to do for  yourself and the world, try to settle down in perfect stillness,
W1:69.9  of the importance of today's idea to you and your happiness, remind  yourself that your grievances are hiding the light of the world from
W1:69.9  are hiding the light of the world from your awareness. Remind  yourself also that you are not searching for it alone and that you do
W1:69.11 Also, be sure to tell  yourself:
W1:70.2  of accepting today's idea is this: it means that nothing outside  yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can give you peace.
W1:70.2  it means that nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing outside  yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing outside
W1:70.2  yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing outside  yourself can hurt you or disturb your peace or upset you in any way.
W1:70.10  which you sought to make real. Recognize that it was not there. Tell  yourself:
W1:70.14 For the short and frequent practice periods today, remind  yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing but your own
W1:71.2  Thus the source of salvation is constantly perceived as outside  yourself.
W1:71.3  for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and everything except  yourself.
W1:71.9  for your salvation will work, and other plans will not. Do not allow  yourself to become depressed or angry at the second part; it is
W1:71.9  release from all your own insane attempts and mad proposals to free  yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But God's plan will
W1:71.13 In the shorter practice periods tell  yourself often that God's plan for salvation, and only His, will
W1:72.7  Very well. Let us accept this and be glad. As a body, do not let  yourself be deprived of what the body offers. Take the little you can
W1:72.8  and exalt it. But while it stands at the center of your concept of  yourself, you are attacking God's plan for salvation and holding your
W1:72.9  perception has been ruinous to your peace of mind. You have seen  yourself in a body and the truth outside you, locked away from your
W1:73.6  is really Heaven. You know it is not so. You cannot want this for  yourself. There is a point beyond which illusions cannot go.
W1:73.8 We will succeed today if you remember that you will salvation for  yourself. You will to accept God's plan because you share in it. You
W1:73.12 After reminding  yourself of this and determining to keep your will clearly in mind,
W1:73.12  of this and determining to keep your will clearly in mind, tell  yourself with gentle firmness and quiet certainty:
W1:74.7  quickly with any conflict thoughts that may cross your mind. Tell  yourself immediately:
W1:74.9  person or persons and the situation or situations involved, and tell  yourself:
W1:74.12 If you feel  yourself slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for
W1:74.13  be undertaken at regular and predetermined intervals today, say to  yourself:
W1:75.5  lie across the world. Begin the longer practice periods by telling  yourself the glad tidings of your release:
W1:75.10 Tell Him you know you cannot fail because you trust in Him. Tell  yourself you wait in certainty to look upon the world He promised
W1:75.11  periods, too, will be joyful reminders of your release. Remind  yourself every quarter of an hour or so that today is a time for
W1:75.15  in which God would have you be. Keep it in your awareness of  yourself and see it everywhere today, as we celebrate the beginning
W1:76.1  While you would seek for it in things that have no meaning, you bind  yourself to laws that make no sense. Thus do you seek to prove
W1:77.2 Your claim to miracles does not lie in your illusions about  yourself. It does not depend on any magical powers you have ascribed
W1:77.2  It does not depend on any magical powers you have ascribed to  yourself nor on any of the rituals you have devised. It is inherent
W1:77.4 Begin the longer practice periods by telling  yourself quite confidently that you are entitled to miracles. Closing
W1:77.4  that you are entitled to miracles. Closing your eyes, remind  yourself that you are asking only for what is rightfully yours.
W1:77.4  that you are asking only for what is rightfully yours. Remind  yourself also that miracles are never taken from one and given to
W1:77.7  and will also be devoted to a reminder of a simple fact. Tell  yourself often today:
W1:77.9  for. You will recognize these situations; you are not relying on  yourself to find them, you are therefore fully entitled to receive
W1:77.10  to be satisfied with less than the perfect answer. Be quick to tell  yourself, should you be tempted:
W1:79.10  form of problems today. Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, tell  yourself quickly:
W1:80.2 Your only problem has been solved! Repeat this over and over to  yourself today with gratitude and conviction. You have recognized
W1:80.2  aside and seen the light of truth. You have accepted salvation for  yourself by bringing the problem to the answer. And you can recognize
W1:80.8  that do not exist. The means is simple honesty. Do not deceive  yourself about what the problem is, and you must recognize it has
W1:91.5  weakness behind. This is accomplished very simply, as you instruct  yourself that you are not a body. Faith goes to what you want, and
W1:91.12  phase of the exercise period, try to experience these truths about  yourself. Concentrate particularly on the experience of strength.
W1:91.14 Five or six times an hour at reasonably regular intervals remind  yourself that miracles are seen in light. Also, be sure to meet
W1:92.10 Let us give 20 minutes twice today to join this meeting. Let  yourself be brought unto your Self. Its strength will be the light in
W1:93.4  and that light and joy and peace abide in you? Your image of  yourself cannot withstand the Will of God. You think that this is
W1:93.7  but one thought—you are as God created you, not what you made of  yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God created
W1:93.10  what God has given you in place of what you have decreed for  yourself.
W1:94.6  long list of attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have ascribed to  yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the truth. God has Himself
W1:94.7  practicing for the first five minutes of every hour, at least remind  yourself hourly:
W1:94.9 Tell  yourself frequently today that you are as God created you. And be
W1:95.1  idea accurately describes you as God created you. You are one within  yourself and one with Him. Yours is the unity of all creation. Your
W1:95.1  it must be so, only because you believe that you have changed  yourself already. You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on God's
W1:95.1  because you believe that you have changed yourself already. You see  yourself as a ridiculous parody on God's creation—weak, vicious,
W1:95.2 Such is your version of  yourself—a self divided into many warring parts, separate from God,
W1:95.14 Then close your eyes and tell  yourself again, slowly and thoughtfully, attempting to allow the
W1:96.1 Although you are One Self, you experience  yourself as two—as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and
W1:99.9  Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive  yourself the thought He wanted this for you. Then let the thought
W1:99.15  to be another self. You have no function that is not of God. Forgive  yourself the one you think you made. Forgiveness and salvation are
W1:99.18 Your only function tells you you are one. Remind  yourself of this between the times you give five minutes to be shared
W1:99.18  minutes to be shared with Him Who shares God's plan with you. Remind  yourself:
W1:100.11  Who calls to you today. And it is Him you answer every time you tell  yourself you are essential to God's plan for the salvation of the
W1:101.6  Joy is just, and pain is but the sign you have misunderstood  yourself.
W1:101.9  these five minutes gladly to remove the heavy load you laid upon  yourself with the insane belief that sin is real.
W1:101.10  goal of peace. There is no sin. Remember this today, and tell  yourself as often as you can:
W1:102.7  these hourly five minute rests, pause frequently today to tell  yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your one function.
W1:105.7  are their right under the equal laws of God. Here you denied them to  yourself. And here you must return to claim them as your own. Think
W1:105.9 Thus you prepare  yourself to recognize God's gifts to you and let your mind be free of
W1:105.9  Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace you have denied  yourself. Now you can say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you
W1:105.10  joy be lifted up, and what is yours can come to you at last. So tell  yourself “God's peace and joy are mine,” and close your eyes a while,
W1:105.12  you to deny God's gift to him, see it as but another chance to let  yourself receive the gifts of God as yours. Then bless your brother
W1:106.5 Prepare  yourself for miracles today. Today allow your Father's ancient pledge
W1:106.12  choice to hear and to receive the Word by this reminder, given to  yourself as often as is possible today:
W1:107.15 Do not forget your function for today. Each time you tell  yourself with confidence, “Truth will correct all errors in my mind,”
W1:110.1  it is true. Its truth would mean that you have made no changes in  yourself which have reality, nor changed the universe so that what
W1:110.9  waiting your acknowledgment as you. And you are lost and do not know  yourself while He is unacknowledged and unknown.
W1:R3.3  to devote the time to it which you are asked to give. Do not deceive  yourself in this. Unwillingness can be most carefully concealed
W1:R3.7  in perfect faith that you would see their messages and use them for  yourself. Offer them to your mind in that same trust and confidence
W1:121.6  inherent in a mind which cannot sin. As sin was an idea you taught  yourself, forgiveness must be learned by you as well, but from a
W1:121.6  must be learned by you as well, but from a Teacher other than  yourself, who represents the other Self in you. Through Him you learn
W1:121.9  as you learn to see them both as one, we will extend the lesson to  yourself and see that their escape included yours.
W1:121.12  you one with them and they with you. Now have you been forgiven by  yourself.
W1:121.13  to every unforgiving mind, with yours among them. Every hour tell  yourself:
W1:122.5  calling from beyond the doorway, bidding you to enter in and make  yourself at home where you belong.
W1:122.14 Remind  yourself how precious are these gifts with this reminder, which has
W1:123.2  Be glad today in loving thankfulness your Father has not left you to  yourself, nor let you wander in the dark alone. Be grateful He has
W1:124.10  the glass this holy half an hour will hold out to you to look upon  yourself. When you are ready, you will find it there within your mind
W1:124.12  frame that holds the mirror offered you today by hourly repeating to  yourself:
W1:125.5  from Him. He does not cherish the illusions which you hold about  yourself. He knows His Son and wills that he remain as part of Him
W1:125.10 As every hour passes by today, be still a moment and remind  yourself you have a special purpose for this day—in quiet to
W1:126.2  further think that they can sin without affecting your perception of  yourself, while you can judge their sin and yet remain apart from
W1:126.3  claim on your forgiveness. It holds out a gift to him but hardly to  yourself.
W1:126.6  not a means for your release from what you see in someone other than  yourself. It has no power to restore your unity with him to your
W1:126.11 As often as you can, remind  yourself you have a goal today—an aim which makes this day of
W1:126.11  have a goal today—an aim which makes this day of special value to  yourself and all your brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal
W1:126.11  brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal for long, but tell  yourself:
W1:128.3  here. For what you value you make part of you as you perceive  yourself. All things you seek to make your value greater in your
W1:128.8  image of the world, refuse to lay this chain upon your mind and tell  yourself with quiet certainty:
W1:131.15 Seek for that door and find it. But before you try to open it, remind  yourself no one can fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is this
W1:131.18  for you and for the world. If you forget this happy fact, remind  yourself with this:
W1:132.6  is pride that argues you have come into a world quite separate from  yourself, impervious to what you think, and quite apart from what you
W1:132.11  the world from every kind of pain is but to change your mind about  yourself. There is no world apart from your ideas because ideas leave
W1:133.17  of Heaven, which swings open as he comes. Should you begin to let  yourself collect some needless burdens or believe you see some
W1:134.3  is there; to overlook the truth in an unfounded effort to deceive  yourself by making an illusion true. This twisted viewpoint but
W1:134.3  that the idea of sin retains as yet upon your mind as you regard  yourself.
W1:134.9  if one brother has received this gift of you, the door is open to  yourself. There is a very simple way to find the door to true
W1:134.17  consider all the evil things you thought of him, and each time ask  yourself “Would I condemn myself for doing this?”
W1:134.18  chains you sought to lay upon your brother which were laid upon  yourself.
W1:134.19  there will be so many times when you forget its meaning and attack  yourself. When this occurs, allow your mind to see through this
W1:134.19  occurs, allow your mind to see through this illusion as you tell  yourself:
W1:135.2  present as you wish. You operate from the belief you must protect  yourself from what is happening because it must contain what
W1:135.26  You give up nothing in these times today when undefended you present  yourself to your Creator as you really are.
W1:135.28  in you and tempt you to engage in weaving plans, remind  yourself this is a special day for learning, and acknowledge it with
W1:136.4 Who but  yourself evaluates a threat, decides escape is necessary, and sets up
W1:136.21  make plans against uncertainties to come, you have again misplaced  yourself, and made a bodily identity which will attack the body, for
W1:136.21  you longer. Do not be confused about what must be healed, but tell  yourself:
W1:137.9  you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you made to hold  yourself a prisoner to death.
W1:137.10  you from everything that ever caused you pain. And as you let  yourself be healed, you see all those around you or who cross your
W1:138.4  one to make. And even this but seems to be a choice. Do not confuse  yourself with all the doubts that myriad decisions would induce. You
W1:139.2  one who has refused to recognize himself? Only refusal to accept  yourself could make the question seem to be sincere. The only thing
W1:139.3 To be alive and not to know  yourself is to believe that you are really dead. For what is life
W1:139.3  to believe that you are really dead. For what is life except to be  yourself, and what but you can be alive instead? Who is the doubter?
W1:139.5  split your mind into what knows and does not know the truth. You are  yourself. There is no doubt of this, and yet you doubt it. But you do
W1:139.5  you doubt it. But you do not ask what part of you can really doubt  yourself. It cannot really be a part of you that asks this question,
W1:139.6 Atonement remedies the strange idea that it is possible to doubt  yourself and be unsure of what you really are. This is the depth of
W1:139.7  time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible to doubt  yourself and not to be aware of what you are. Only acceptance can be
W1:139.9 Fail not your brothers, or you fail  yourself. Look lovingly on them that they may know that they are part
W1:139.9  not to change reality, but merely to accept the truth about  yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of God. It is
W1:139.13  the fragile nature of the chains that seem to keep the knowledge of  yourself apart from your awareness, as you say:
W1:R4.10  to be reviewed that day. Then close your eyes and say them slowly to  yourself. There is no hurry now, for you are using time for its
W1:151.5 This thing it speaks of and would yet defend it tells you is  yourself. And you believe that this is so with stubborn certainty.
W1:151.6  completely vanquish. You believe to doubt his vassals is to doubt  yourself. Yet you must learn to doubt their evidence will clear the
W1:151.6  must learn to doubt their evidence will clear the way to recognize  yourself and let the Voice for God alone be Judge of what is worthy
W1:152.15  of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of  yourself.

W1:158.10  you be; if you see light in him, your sins have been forgiven by  yourself. Each brother whom you meet today provides another chance to
W1:159.2  when you give healing. You accept forgiveness as accomplished in  yourself when you forgive. You recognize your brother as yourself and
W1:159.2  in yourself when you forgive. You recognize your brother as  yourself and thus do you perceive that you are whole. There is no
W1:160.1  the ways of love. Identify with fear, and you will be a stranger to  yourself. And thus you are unknown to you. What is your Self remains
W1:160.1  to the part of you which thinks that it is real but different from  yourself. Who could be sane in such a circumstance? Who but a madman
W1:160.3  this stranger in to take your place and let you be a stranger to  yourself? No one would let himself be dispossessed so needlessly
W1:166.8  your poverty in exile? He would make you laugh at this perception of  yourself. Where is self-pity then? And what becomes of all the

W1:181.1  in your ability to transcend doubt and lack of sure conviction in  yourself. When you attack a brother, you proclaim that he is limited
W1:185.10  And so do all who seem to seek for dreams. For them as well as for  yourself you ask but this when you make this request with deep
W1:185.10  in the attempt. Help has been given you. And would you not avail  yourself of it by sharing it?
W1:186.6 Arrogance makes an image of  yourself that is not real. It is this image which quails and retreats
W1:186.6  to go beyond all images. You are not weak, as is the image of  yourself. You are not ignorant and helpless. Sin cannot tarnish the
W1:186.12  Who knows all things exactly as they are, or a distorted image of  yourself, confused, bewildered, inconsistent and unsure of
W1:187.3  them. If you are to save the world, you first accept salvation for  yourself. But you will not believe that this is done until you see
W1:187.6 Never forget you give but to  yourself. Who understands what giving means must laugh at the idea of
W1:188.6  honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside  yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. These thoughts
W1:189.7  concepts you have learned about the world, all images you hold about  yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or
W1:190.5  mind can hurt or injure you in any way. There is no cause beyond  yourself that can reach down and bring oppression. No one but
W1:190.5  beyond yourself that can reach down and bring oppression. No one but  yourself affects you. There is nothing in the world which has the
W1:191.2  and this is what remains. You look on chaos and proclaim it as  yourself. There is no sight that fails to witness this to you. There
W1:191.6  free of your imprisonment. You will not see a devastating image of  yourself walking the world in terror with the world twisting in agony
W1:191.7 Be glad today how very easily is hell undone. You need but tell  yourself:
W1:191.11 You who perceive  yourself as weak and frail, with futile hopes and devastated dreams,
W1:191.13  free. They cannot see the mercy of the world until you find it for  yourself. They suffer pain until you have denied its hold on you.
W1:193.12 God would not have you suffer thus. He would help you forgive  yourself. His Son does not remember who he is. And God would have him
W1:195.3  but try to bring him down to lie in death with you, as useless as  yourself, as little left within his grasping fingers as in yours.
W1:196.1  understood and kept in full awareness, you will not attempt to harm  yourself nor make your body slave to vengeance. You will not attack
W1:196.1  yourself nor make your body slave to vengeance. You will not attack  yourself, and you will realize that to attack another is but to
W1:196.1  and you will realize that to attack another is but to attack  yourself. You will be free of the insane belief that to attack a
W1:196.1  You will be free of the insane belief that to attack a brother saves  yourself. And you will understand his safety is your own, and in his
W1:196.5  hopeless thought that you can make attacks on others and escape  yourself has nailed you to the cross. Perhaps it seemed to be
W1:196.6  if you accept the fearful thought you can attack another and be free  yourself. Until this form is changed, there is no hope. Until you see

W1:197.2  Deny your strength, and weakness must become salvation to you. See  yourself as bound, and bars become your home. Nor will you leave the
W1:197.5  to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be given only to  yourself, and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you will never

W1:197.9  Him the holy thoughts of God. Earn now the gratitude you have denied  yourself when you forgot the function God has given you. But never
W1:198.1  believed that you can injure, and the right you have established for  yourself can be now used against you till you lay it down as

W1:199.1 Freedom must be impossible as long as you perceive a body as  yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for freedom in a body
W1:200.1  not find peace except the peace of God. Accept this fact, and save  yourself the agony of yet more bitter disappointments, bleak despair,

W2:240.1 Fear is deception. It attests that you have seen  yourself as you could never be and therefore look upon a world which
W2:240.1  in which it may appear. It witnesses but to your own illusions of  yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the Son of God. There
W2:253.2 You are the Self Whom You created Son, creating like  Yourself and one with You. My Self, Which rules the universe, is but
W2:264.1  Love Which holds all things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like  Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name today, to be at peace

M:15.3  still your goal—why you are here. It is your function to prepare  yourself to hear this judgment and to recognize that it is true. One
M:15.3  out of time can bring time's end. Judge not, for you but judge  yourself and thus delay this Final Judgment. What is your judgment on
M:15.3  you yet learned to stand aside and hear the Voice of Judgment in  yourself? Or do you still attempt to take His role from Him? Learn to

M:23.3  for help? What did he say about this? Remember his promises, and ask  yourself honestly whether it is likely that he will fail to keep
M:23.5  for love, but only that he might give it to you. You do not love  yourself. But in his eyes your loveliness is so complete and flawless
M:27.7  God is guiltless now and forever. Nothing but this. But do not let  yourself forget it is not less than this.
M:29.3  is obvious. To follow the Holy Spirit's guidance is to let  yourself be absolved of guilt. It is the essence of the Atonement. It

Tx:6.8  demonstrated only through joint decision. You are free to perceive  yourselves as persecuted if you choose. You might remember, however,
Tx:6.9  truth in you, and know that it cannot be assailed. Do not protect it  yourselves, or you have believed that it is assailable. You are not
Tx:6.14  you are never called on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling  yourselves to hear the Holy Spirit in others, you can learn from

Tx:6.32  enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You can no more pray for  yourselves alone than you can find joy for yourself alone. Prayer is
Tx:6.40  what is not true. From this, which you have made, you have taught  yourselves to believe that you are not what you are. You cannot teach
Tx:6.40  what you have not learned, and what you teach you strengthen in  yourselves because you are sharing it. Every lesson you teach you are

Tx:7.107  that there is no order of difficulty in miracles, you will convince  yourselves that in your natural state there is no difficulty, because
Tx:7.109  you can be happy. You cannot make it any more than you can make  yourselves. It has been created for you, as you were created for it.

Tx:7.112 You do not know  yourselves, because you do not know your Creator. You do not know
Tx:7.112  creations, because you do not know their creator. You do not know  yourselves, because you do not know yours.
Tx:8.5  Atonement is the opposite of the curriculum you have established for  yourselves, but so is its outcome. If the outcome of yours has made
Tx:8.21  cannot be found alone, and you who are the Kingdom cannot find  yourselves alone.
Tx:8.33  means that you have imprisoned yours and have not let it be free. Of  yourselves you can do nothing, because of yourselves you are nothing.
Tx:8.33  not let it be free. Of yourselves you can do nothing, because of  yourselves you are nothing. I am nothing without the Father, and you
Tx:8.43  of which is true is not yours. If it were, you would have destroyed  yourselves. Yet God did not will the destruction of His creations,
Tx:8.43  having created them for eternity. His Will has saved you, not from  yourselves, but from your illusions of yourselves. He has saved you

Tx:8.68 Do not allow  yourselves to suffer from the results of what is not true. Free your
Tx:8.94  to sacrifice anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of  yourselves, the Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not God's
Tx:9.79  my merit that I contribute to you but my love, for you do not value  yourselves. When you do not value yourself, you become sick, but my
Tx:9.96  without the Father, Who alone is his help. We said before that of  yourselves you can do nothing, but you are not of yourselves. If you
Tx:9.96  before that of yourselves you can do nothing, but you are not of  yourselves. If you were, what you have made would be true, and you
Tx:9.97 It is because you did not make  yourselves that you need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are
Tx:9.103  the joy which was created for you for the misery you have made for  yourselves. God has given you the means for undoing what you have
Tx:9.107  eternity, you must learn to look only on the eternal. If you allow  yourselves to become preoccupied with the temporal, you are living in
Tx:10.23  if you did you could never have grown weary. Unless you have hurt  yourselves, you could never suffer in any way, for that is not God's
Tx:10.72  already. You have made many ideas which you have placed between  yourselves and your Creator, and these beliefs are the world as you
Tx:10.77  against truth. You made the problem which God has answered. Ask  yourselves, therefore, but one simple question—
Tx:10.88  my children, are afraid of your brothers and of your Father and of  yourselves. But you are merely deceived in them.
Tx:11.7  Do not attempt to “help” a brother in your way, for you cannot help  yourselves. But hear his call for the help of God, and you will
Tx:11.17  your heads under the covers of the heavy blankets you have laid upon  yourselves. You are hiding your nightmares in the darkness of your

Tx:11.73  no judgment at all unto yourselves. For you will judge against  yourselves, but He will judge for you.
Tx:11.79  unless He had given you a way to remember, you would have condemned  yourselves to oblivion.
Tx:11.81  the insane desire to control reality. You who cannot even control  yourselves should hardly aspire to control the universe. But look
Tx:11.82  Christ is invisible to you because of what you have made visible to  yourselves. Yet it does not matter how much distance you have tried
Tx:11.90  ego has no life, and God's Son is without guilt. As you look upon  yourselves and judge what you do honestly, as you have been asked to
Tx:11.94 When you have accepted the Atonement for  yourselves, you will realize that there is no guilt in God's Son. And
Tx:12.69  you lose whatever you have gotten in its name. Therefore ask not of  yourselves what you need, for you do not know and your advice unto
Tx:12.74  altars to sacrifice and seek not what you will surely lose. Content  yourselves with what you will as surely keep and be not restless, for
Tx:13.11  and the past, the laws of God must intervene if you would free  yourselves. Atonement stands between them like a lamp that shines so
Tx:13.11  shines so brightly that the chain of darkness in which you bound  yourselves will disappear.
Tx:13.28 You who have been unmerciful unto  yourselves do not remember your Father's Love. And looking without
Tx:13.33  and because of this, I treasure you beyond the value that you set on  yourselves, even unto the worth that God has placed upon you. I love
Tx:13.52  death and murder that your Father shared not with you. You have set  yourselves the task of sharing what cannot be shared. And while you
Tx:13.53  cannot see through it. It deceives you because you chose to deceive  yourselves. Those who choose to be deceived will merely attack direct
Tx:13.65  you. You do not want either alone, for without both, you do not see  yourselves as whole and therefore happy. Yet you are whole only in
Tx:13.75  done to make you worthy of the gift of God. Ask it not therefore of  yourselves. Instead, accept His answer, for He knows that you are
Tx:13.82 You taught  yourselves the most unnatural habit of not communicating with your
Tx:14.2  selves away and valued God so little, hear me speak for Him and for  yourselves. You cannot understand how much your Father loves you, for

Tx:14.35  darkened corridors, away from light's center. You may choose to lead  yourselves astray, but you can only be brought together by the Guide
Tx:14.35  truth. They have no opposite, and nothing else can you bestow upon  yourselves.
Tx:14.38  from your Father, for hiding it has cost you knowledge of Him and of  yourselves. The knowledge is safe, but wherein is your safety apart
Tx:14.53  mind, let me assure you that you know nothing of it at all. For of  yourselves you could not know of it. The study of the ego is not the
Tx:14.58  power, and all power is of God. You who have tried to keep power for  yourselves have lost it. You still have the power, but you have
Tx:14.58  awareness of it that you cannot use it. Everything you have taught  yourselves has made your power more and more obscure to you. You know

Tx:14.59  given all power by Him, learn to be powerless? What have you taught  yourselves that you can possibly prefer to keep in place of what you
Tx:14.60  you how to escape forever from everything that you have taught  yourselves in the past by showing you only what you are now. Learning

Tx:18.26  so long, has not yet been sufficient to give you confidence in  yourselves, so long despised. You go toward love, still hating it and
