A Course in Miracles (24) |

C:P.1 | This is | a course in miracles. It is a required course. The time for you to |
C:P.3 | not learned but has merely become threatened. Spirit does not need | a course in miracles. If the ego cannot learn and the spirit does not |
C:P.4 | This is a basic question that was not adequately answered in | A Course in Miracles. While a course in miracles is meaningless to |
C:P.4 | that was not adequately answered in A Course in Miracles. While | a course in miracles is meaningless to the ego and unnecessary to |
C:P.5 | of being, as a whole, has entered a time, brought on largely by | A Course in Miracles, in which readiness for miracle-mindedness is |
C:P.5 | in Miracles, in which readiness for miracle-mindedness is upon it. | A Course in Miracles opened a door by threatening the ego. All those |
C:1.2 | You learned in | A Course in Miracles that all knowledge is generalizable. So is all |
C:8.19 | moment without awareness of the body was beautifully described in | A Course in Miracles as the Holy Instant. You may not think |
C:17.7 | that your greatest efforts at organization are often to no avail. | A Course in Miracles asks you to “receive instead of plan,” and yet |
C:23.27 | anew. This is but another way of stating that which was stated in | A Course in Miracles: Resign as your own teacher. The desire to |
C:26.4 | my life as the example life and reiterate the message expressed in | A Course in Miracles: The true meaning of the crucifixion is that it |
C:31.2 | and sacrosanct. These highly guarded and regarded thoughts are what | A Course in Miracles calls body thoughts. Distinctions are made in |
T1:3.15 | this is the quickest means of realizing who you are. As was said in | A Course in Miracles, miracles are timesaving devices. Although |
T1:3.15 | to violate one of the rules of miracle-readiness as described in | A Course in Miracles, the extreme need of your return to love |
T1:4.3 | A Course of Love began with an injunction to pray. | A Course in Miracles began with a definition of miracles. Both are |
T1:4.27 | word or idea of awe has been confused with the word or idea of fear. | A Course in Miracles told you that awe is the providence of God and |
T2:4.3 | A Course in Miracles and A Course of Love work hand-in-hand because | |
T2:4.3 | Love work hand-in-hand because the change of thinking taught within | A Course in Miracles was a change of thinking about yourself. It |
T2:6.7 | of which is that it is a structure on which to sit. The exercises of | A Course in Miracles began with asking you to call into question |
T2:10.2 | belief that has been replaced. This belief was first expressed in | A Course in Miracles by the saying resign as your own teacher. This |
T3:22.5 | The injunction that you resign as your own teacher originated in | A Course in Miracles and was furthered here. Along with this |
A.1 | A major difference between | A Course in Miracles and A Course of Love has to do with the movement |
A.2 | state was the illusion for which a cure was needed—and within | A Course in Miracles offered. |
A.4 | the only reason for this continuation of the coursework provided in | A Course in Miracles. While you continue to put effort into learning |
A Course of Love (48) |

C:P.44 | of the heart. This is why, to end confusion, we call this course | A Course of Love. |
T1:1.2 | While | A Course of Love has led you to a state of wholeness of mind and |
T1:1.3 | more. All that you are in need of knowing has been provided within | A Course of Love. That your learning does not feel complete is not a |
T1:1.4 | A Course of Love has provided you with what you need to know, which | |
T1:1.6 | reunited mind and heart will now be called to act in unison. That | A Course of Love instructed you little in the mechanics of the mind |
T1:1.9 | circumvented in order for true learning to take place. This is what | A Course of Love accomplished. This learning was accomplished in you, |
T1:2.1 | The closing pages of | A Course of Love instructed you to think no more. A break in time was |
T1:2.2 | We identified much for you to leave behind within the pages of | A Course of Love. These many things which seemed so distinct and |
T1:2.5 | of this freedom being accomplished in you. What was spoken of within | A Course of Love as unlearning has begun and continues here. What was |
T1:2.5 | unlearning has begun and continues here. What was spoken of within | A Course of Love as new learning has begun and continues here as |
T1:2.7 | through these same means was the fallacy that the early teaching of | A Course of Love sought to dispel. |
T1:2.8 | But again, as was stated often throughout | A Course of Love, an alternative exists. It did not exist when you |
T1:2.11 | indicated. All of these implications have been touched upon within | A Course of Love. The most essential of these implications is that of |
T1:3.10 | As was said within | A Course of Love, willingness does not require conviction but leads |
T1:4.3 | A Course of Love began with an injunction to pray. A Course in | |
T1:4.4 | This identification and acknowledgment was the stated goal of | A Course of Love. It does not negate your existence as a human being |
T1:4.26 | As was said within | A Course of Love, all fear is doubt about your self. Now we must |
T1:5.3 | When it was said within | A Course of Love that the great paradox of creation is that, while |
T1:5.4 | relates to the fear of union we spent much time discussing within | A Course of Love. It is a fear of the human mind that cannot |
T1:9.1 | is what will complete the return begun through the coursework in | A Course of Love. This will bring about the union of the male and |
T2:3.4 | This was stated early in | A Course of Love and is returned to now for a specific reason. While |
T2:4.3 | A Course in Miracles and | A Course of Love work hand-in-hand because the change of thinking |
T2:4.3 | that has provided you with an identity that you but think you are. | A Course of Love then followed in order to reveal to you who you |
T2:4.18 | be measured because of its simultaneous nature. As was said within | A Course of Love, time is but a measurement of the “time” it takes |
T2:7.13 | Again I return you to the early teachings of | A Course of Love, teachings concerning your desire to be good and to |
T2:8.2 | As was said within | A Course of Love, the one you come to know through relationship is |
T2:8.6 | It was said often within | A Course of Love that the truth does not change. Thus the truth of |
T2:11.1 | Christ in you is relationship. As you were told within the pages of | A Course of Love, you are a being who exists in relationship. This is |
T2:12.9 | relationship and the miracle waiting to happen. As we spoke within | A Course of Love of relationship being not one thing or another but a |
T3:4.8 | from you. Whether you fully realize this or not matters not. This | A Course of Love has accomplished. Now the choice is before you to do |
T3:8.7 | As was said in | A Course of Love, the idea of suffering is what has gone so wrong |
T3:10.1 | A Course of Love talked much of remembering. Now we must talk about | |
T3:16.5 | We spoke once before within | A Course of Love of your impatience and of this Course acting as a |
T4:2.23 | pattern of your thinking. We have spoken of this within the text of | A Course of Love as your inability to realize the relationship that |
D:2.1 | with which you have led your life thus far. You were told within | A Course of Love that willingness was all that was necessary for you |
D:3.8 | the idea of giving and receiving as one that was introduced within | A Course of Love and taught quite thoroughly in “A Treatise on Unity |
D:6.1 | either changed or reinforced those you already had about yourself. | A Course of Love is a teaching text and the goal of its teaching was |
D:9.6 | speaks to who you are now rather than who you were when you began | A Course of Love. |
D:17.12 | That response is wholehearted desire, which is the power that | A Course of Love came to return to you. You were told within this |
D:Day3.26 | to the degree that you could learn them within the teachings of | A Course of Love. But beyond learning is where we now stand. We now |
D:Day4.23 | The answer to both come in the stated purpose of | A Course of Love: Establishing your identity. You needed to first |
D:Day4.45 | for this choice: Wholehearted desire. Wholehearted desire is what | A Course of Love taught you so that you could be taken to this place |
D:Day10.22 | Remember that you have been told since the beginning of | A Course of Love that the answers that you seek lie within, and that |
D:Day23.1 | fear, joy without sorrow, and life everlasting. You must be this. | A Course of Love gave you the understanding you needed in order to |
D:Day24.3 | of ways, only one of which is by your choice. When it was said that | A Course of Love was a trigger, it was meant that the Course is both |
E.4 | returned to your true nature. Perhaps you will remember that within | A Course of Love you were once asked to “Imagine the ocean or the |
A.1 | A major difference between A Course in Miracles and | A Course of Love has to do with the movement into the Time of Christ, |

C:10.3 | to the truth, but completely consistent as a system. You cannot | abandon one tenet and retain another because by retaining part you |
C:15.11 | other whose special treatment of yourself you cannot live without or | abandon hope of receiving. And so you choose illusion over truth and |
C:19.4 | because heaven must be where you are. A wholehearted choice to | abandon all ideas of glorifying the separated self and to let the |
T3:2.11 | while perfectly believable, is not one that includes a need to | abandon your Self or God. Why should you be more inclined to believe |
T3:20.9 | are being told directly here that no circumstance should call you to | abandon them. |
T3:20.10 | the truth and to never deny it. To see no circumstance as cause to | abandon it. Yes, I am providing you with means to help you know how |
T3:20.15 | will work wherever it finds willingness. You cannot call others to | abandon their willingness to live in illusion by joining them there! |
T4:12.9 | Thus, if you have been religious, | abandon not your churches, for you will find within them now, direct |
T4:12.9 | sharing. If you have found guidance and comfort in the written word, | abandon not the written word, for the written word will now elicit |
T4:12.36 | asked of us is everything. What is asked is our total willingness to | abandon the old, our total willingness to embrace the new. But also |
D:7.25 | These scenarios of fear we leave behind as we | abandon ideas of evolution in time and proceed to an awareness of how |

C:19.3 | free will has not been taken from you, nor has the power of creation | abandoned you. Within creation’s own laws does the solution rest. |
T3:2.11 | God you believe you left in defiance, or the Self you believe you | abandoned there. Be truthful with yourself now and realize that what |
T3:2.11 | here is known to you. Realize that you know that it is not God who | abandoned you, but you who abandoned your Self and God. Give up your |
T3:2.11 | that you know that it is not God who abandoned you, but you who | abandoned your Self and God. Give up your desire to think that if you |

C:3.18 | You who think this idea is rife with sentiment, sure to lead you to | abandoning logic, and thereafter certainly to cause your ruin, I say |

C:10.5 | been journeying long, as well as those of you just beginning, this | abandonment of the body as your home and source of all you are is the |
C:20.16 | There is no longer cause for alienation, nor for the feeling of | abandonment so many of you have felt. You are now within the embrace |
T3:6.4 | to be distrustful of your Self, beginning with the idea of your | abandonment here. Since the ego is a chosen self and a learned self, |
A.22 | demonstrated and shared is the perfect logic of the heart, and that | abandonment of the old way will not bring forth ruin but will bring |

||
C:16.25 | that if everyone cannot do what they would want, then you, too, must | abdicate your wishes for the common good. You thus behave in “noble” |
T2:9.10 | within relationship. The extent to which you are willing to | abdicate your needs in order to attain something is the extent to |
abdicating (1) |
||
C:P.11 | of the Course and the truth of your Self as God created you, you are | abdicating love to fear. You are perhaps making this world a better |
abdication (3) |

C:1.14 | in the chaos at all is seen not as desirable, but as a sort of | abdication, a loss through failure to engage. Although you are well |
C:2.19 | your guilt. Thus it wins in daily battles and works for your final | abdication, the day that you give up and admit defeat. It challenges |
C:9.45 | All such confusion stems from your displacement of yourself and your | abdication of your power to the things that you have made. |

C:1.13 | of value. You are complete only within God, where you endlessly | abide. Striving to be that which you can never be is the hell you |
C:4.20 | you have made but must have another where you are at home and can | abide within love’s presence. |
C:4.24 | can allow a new world to be seen, a world that will allow you to | abide within love’s presence. |
C:8.8 | What foolishness to think love could | abide with companions such as these. If these be in your heart, where |
C:8.15 | from it, for it is not your home. The heart we speak of does not | abide in it and nor do you. Separate bodies cannot unite in |
C:13.7 | to do is to become aware of spirit and to allow this awareness to | abide within you. If you feel resistance to attempting this exercise, |
C:19.21 | not go in search of it, and in truth, cannot, for the past does not | abide in you. What you need rather do is strive for a place of |
T2:7.19 | separate the false from the true, for your ego thoughts cannot long | abide in the holy place of your heart. Then, with truth and illusion |
T3:14.2 | prevail, for those dwelling in the House of Truth would not long | abide with such illusions, but the pattern of the old would not be |
T4:4.12 | I am calling you to everlasting consciousness even while you still | abide in form. To be cognizant or aware of everlasting consciousness |
T4:4.12 | be cognizant or aware of everlasting consciousness while you still | abide in form is to be fully aware that you have life everlasting. |
T4:4.15 | divine that matter can become divine and thus eternal. If you can | abide in unity while in human form, you will have no cause, save your |
T4:4.15 | will have no cause, save your own choice, to leave human form. To | abide in unity is to abide in your natural state, a state of |
T4:4.15 | save your own choice, to leave human form. To abide in unity is to | abide in your natural state, a state of life-everlasting. To abide in |
T4:4.15 | is to abide in your natural state, a state of life-everlasting. To | abide in a state of separation is to abide in an unnatural state from |
T4:4.15 | a state of life-everlasting. To abide in a state of separation is to | abide in an unnatural state from which you eventually will seek |
T4:4.16 | Self in the reality in which you exist now. Remember, the heart must | abide in the reality where you think you are. Only through your |
T4:7.4 | Those who sustain Christ-consciousness will | abide within it free of judgment. They will not seek to create their |
T4:7.4 | version of a perfect world and to force it upon others, but will | abide within the perfect world that is in the vision of |
T4:7.5 | a heart and mind joined in unity, your body too will exist or | abide within this natural state. It cannot help to, as it, just like |
T4:12.14 | in the hopes that it would bring you to the state in which you now | abide! You dreaded each learning challenge because you feared that it |
T4:12.28 | What this means will be revealed to you and shared by all who | abide within Christ-consciousness because you abide in a |
T4:12.28 | and shared by all who abide within Christ-consciousness because you | abide in a consciousness of unity through your choice. |
T4:12.29 | continually choose unity, because you have already chosen unity and | abide there. You do, however, have to refrain from choosing |
D:7.2 | aspect of creation and thus of the state of union in which you truly | abide. |
D:13.6 | this will no longer be a problem because you will constantly | abide in awareness of the relationship of unity. But until this state |
D:Day18.5 | now is needed in order to renew or resurrect the world and all who | abide within it. |
D:Day22.7 | that if you could fully express this place of union, if you could | abide there, if you could share this place in an aware and conscious |

C:3.6 | comes only to eyes that no longer see, you will find the Christ who | abides in you. In Jesus Christ, the Son of God became the son of man. |
C:3.16 | from within our heart, our altar to the Lord. Here the Christ in us | abides and here we concentrate our energies and our learning, soon to |
C:4.24 | worship, within you has love’s holiness been protected, within you | abides the Host who loves all dearly. Within you is the light that |
C:4.25 | love does join the world, and it is within this joining that love | abides, holy as itself. |
C:6.18 | in its wholeness one with you. It is here, in wholeness, that peace | abides and heaven is. It is from wholeness that heaven waits for you. |
C:7.8 | that what you give you will receive in truth, you will see that what | abides within your heart is all that is worthy of your giving and all |
C:8.8 | were real there would be no place for love at all, but love | abides where illusion cannot enter. These illusions are like |
C:18.8 | also part of the projection, and this is where your awareness now | abides, seemingly trapped upon the screen, viewing everything from |
C:20.25 | for the all that you are. You are the beauty of the world and peace | abides within you. |
C:31.26 | and experience to truth, and thus to your mind. Only the truth | abides within your mind, for only it can enter the holy altar you |
T1:5.9 | all seeking must turn within, toward the heart where the real Self | abides. There is nothing else that will free who you are but freedom |
T2:3.3 | resides. Remember always that your heart is where the Christ in you | abides and that the Christ is your identity. Remember that it is the |
T3:2.11 | to turn the image you have made into a reflection of the love that | abides with it in holiness that is beyond your current ability to |
T3:15.10 | in unity. The holy relationship is with the Self, the Self that | abides in unity with all within the House of Truth. This relationship |
D:Day18.11 | to you through your interaction with the Christ-consciousness that | abides within you. One way of doing this is through individuation and |
E.16 | your own being. The cooperative relationship of all with everything | abides within you now. You do not, and cannot decide what to do with |
abiding (2) |

T4:7.5 | the Christ-Self to know fear or judgment. What we are speaking of is | abiding in your natural state. Your natural state is one free of fear |
T4:12.20 | to let doubt of yourself take hold of you. Even though you are | abiding now in the state of Christ-consciousness, the pattern of the |
abilities (22) |

C:2.19 | learned for its own motivations and pat you on the back for your new | abilities. Without your vigilance it may even seem to have become |
T1:5.4 | miracles is insane, that both welcomes and fears visions and | abilities you see as being currently beyond your capabilities. |
T2:1.4 | to those internal treasures you had once hoped to have become | abilities. You think this willingness to accept who you are now is |
T2:1.9 | the desires you may have once identified as hoping to develop into | abilities, are given a structure and form in your thinking of them. A |
T2:6.5 | I speak. You believe that your treasures only become accomplished | abilities within time. You believe that your treasures only become |
T2:6.5 | have passed beyond the time it takes for those treasures to become | abilities. Thus all that you might wish to accomplish stands separate |
T2:12.13 | as who you are in every moment and in every circumstance. Let these | abilities serve you and your brothers and sisters. Let this way of |
T4:1.14 | it. It must be your science or technology, your advanced mental | abilities, or even your leisure time that has opened up this |
D:1.3 | through lack of intelligence—through lack, in other words, of | abilities of the personal self. As long as you “see” such visions, |
D:8.4 | science might have to say to you about the source of such talents or | abilities, you have known that they are not of the body. |
D:8.6 | will aid you too in your understanding of discovery, as your natural | abilities or talents were discovered and in that discovery, you |
D:8.7 | that goes beyond what you now think of as your natural talents or | abilities, the place or Source of your natural talents or abilities |
D:8.7 | talents or abilities, the place or Source of your natural talents or | abilities is a place from which to start building your awareness of |
D:9.10 | Just as the “Art of Thought” led to | abilities beyond the thinking of the ego-mind, the beliefs of the |
D:9.12 | Like the natural | abilities you discovered existed within you prior to the time of |
D:10.1 | of unity is timeless. What comes to you in the form of natural | abilities or talents, as ideas, as imagination, as inspiration, |
D:10.2 | teaching and learning appropriately work with and enable the use of | abilities such as these, but you also know that these means are |
D:16.5 | to be, the ability to create. Through the art of thought, these | abilities become who we are. God and Creation are synonymous, and you |
D:Day1.10 | trained, I understand the truth about outer space, I believe in my | abilities; but I do not accept the spacecraft as necessary.” Lest |

D:Day9.33 | to unity will be your certainty. Trust in your own abilities—the | abilities of the self of form joined with the Self of union—will be |
D:Day9.33 | the Self of union—will be your confidence. Only these combined | abilities will release your power. |

C:5.21 | hell into heaven, insanity to peace. You do not yet understand your | ability to choose that which you make real in your creation of the |
C:5.23 | to eventually succeed. This is the extent of your faith in your own | ability to maneuver this world that you have made; and if you finally |
C:10.27 | You will soon develop an | ability to see without your body’s eyes. This, too, will seem like a |
C:12.16 | realizing that these words can express the truth only within their | ability as symbols, and that farther than where these symbols can |
C:12.21 | own even though they at times seem to, this idea as well had no | ability to be more than what it was, except for as the son chose to |

C:20.40 | given, the judgment changes the nature of the gift by limiting its | ability to be of service. A gift one feels one cannot “use” is |
C:20.46 | inadequacy and smallness with your willingness to believe in your | ability and mightiness. Remember not your ego concerns and remember |
C:23.18 | that do not serve you, because they were created to serve you. The | ability to imagine is such a capability, freely and equally given to |
C:25.7 | you feel as if the “other” gives you nothing. Yet it is your lack of | ability to receive that causes this feeling. The practice of devotion |
C:29.3 | of service to God. This is a symptom of the reign of the ego and its | ability to both aggrandize your notion of yourself, and to minimize |
C:29.5 | Your return to unity is your return to your full power and your | ability to be of quite literal service to God and your brothers and |
T1:1.4 | of all coursework. This does not mean that you have acquired the | ability to live what you have learned, only that you are ready to. |
T1:1.4 | as well as the concept of memory, implies mindfulness and the | ability to reproduce or recall both what has been learned and what |
T1:3.10 | but leads to conviction. The apostles had no faith in their | ability to perform miracles. The faith they showed was in their |
T1:6.7 | available to you, each experience would begin and end and have no | ability to relate to anything else at all. Without memory, what you |

T2:3.7 | return to the idea of talents this may be easier to explain. If the | ability to create beautiful music already exists within you, you do |
T2:4.6 | to return to ease of movement is to cease to struggle or resist. The | ability to let go of struggle is a learned ability for the swimmer |
T2:4.6 | struggle or resist. The ability to let go of struggle is a learned | ability for the swimmer and is a learned ability for you now as you |
T2:4.6 | go of struggle is a learned ability for the swimmer and is a learned | ability for you now as you journey back to your real Self. It |
T2:4.19 | it is going to raise it to a level you will come to think of as an | ability. As your old way of responding to life causes you to struggle |
T2:7.9 | means through which interaction is real, the only source of your | ability to change that which you would change. |
T2:7.11 | The only thing that will prevent this is your | ability to go out into the world and remain who you are. This relates |
T2:7.11 | the old pattern, a pattern that has been proven to not have any | ability to change the world. |
T2:7.21 | being one in truth, your belief will become true conviction. Your | ability to recognize giving and receiving as one becomes simply an |
T2:8.3 | will not only aid you in your realization of who you are and your | ability to live as who you are, but will aid all others. This is |
T2:9.3 | kept secure and cherished. This aspect of treasure relates to your | ability to let go. As many of you will find the idea of letting go of |
T2:9.3 | the most difficult of ideas contained in this course of study, the | ability to let go must be further discussed. |
T2:9.4 | to the relationships that you feel met these needs because of their | ability to meet them. When your needs cease being met, you believe |
T2:9.19 | Ceasing to think in these terms will soon be seen as a valuable | ability and a timesaving measure of great magnitude. As these old |
T2:10.4 | intriguing to others, how many of you would not want to replace your | ability to know with the ability of that of a supercomputer. |
T2:10.4 | many of you would not want to replace your ability to know with the | ability of that of a supercomputer. |
T2:10.5 | done by replacing unity with singularity. You have narrowed your | ability to know to an ability to know that which you have |
T2:10.5 | unity with singularity. You have narrowed your ability to know to an | ability to know that which you have experienced. While what we are |
T2:10.8 | Just beyond your mind’s | ability to call it forth lies the truth that you and all other beings |
T2:10.8 | all other beings know. The access to what seems to lie beyond your | ability lies in the Christ in you. You might think of the ego as the |
T2:10.13 | The end of the separated state or the ego, is the beginning of your | ability to hear only one voice, the voice we all share in unity. |
T2:10.16 | learning alone, still they would be loath to give up or let go the | ability to choose their lessons. And still we are only talking about |
T2:11.15 | but reveal to you a fraction of the power of your thinking and its | ability to shape the world you see? |
T2:12.2 | Miracles cannot be used, and so your learning needed to include an | ability to distinguish between service and use. Service, or devotion, |
T2:12.7 | as well as a learning device, so you must come to see your own | ability to call forth intercession as a gift and treasure you are |
T3:1.5 | is in developing an awareness of what is not the truth. While the | ability to distinguish between the true and the untrue has been |
T3:1.5 | between the true and the untrue has been repeatedly discussed as the | ability to separate fear from love, further guidelines are needed. |
T3:2.9 | the meaningless, it will not be found there. The meaningless has no | ability to change the meaning of truth. And so your Self has remained |
T3:2.11 | This memory lies within your heart and has the | ability to turn the image you have made into a reflection of the love |
T3:2.11 | the love that abides with it in holiness that is beyond your current | ability to imagine. It is impossible for you to imagine this holiness |
T3:3.3 | keep you from much you would desire, you fear as much or more your | ability to disappoint others or to “let them down.” Some of you |
T3:7.3 | ideas about yourself have their cause within you, as does your | ability to change this cause and its effects. |
T3:9.1 | in the here and now. To accept these ideas without accepting their | ability to be applied is to change your beliefs without changing your |
T3:10.13 | went on for many years, you might think you had forgotten your | ability to understand English. |
T3:13.4 | would but seem to tempt you, you have believed in them and their | ability to affect you. You have unlearned many of these lessons and |
T3:13.4 | see love where it is not and to not see fear where it is. But your | ability to distinguish between love and fear as cause is all that is |
T3:14.12 | You might think of this in terms of nature and look upon nature’s | ability to correct itself. You are a part of nature. Your body can |
T3:16.4 | Although you may still feel confused and lacking in | ability to do what I am asking of you, I feel confident in also |
T3:16.16 | that do not form real connections but that only seem to have the | ability to build upon each other. Let one part go and soon all the |
T3:17.8 | illusion. Without this means of communication with the ego-self the | ability to learn the truth could not have returned to you. The “time” |
T3:17.8 | end point for the time of illusion. The return of Christ, or your | ability and willingness to live as your true Self, to live in the |
T3:18.2 | link it with ideas as we have spoken of them here. Observation, the | ability to observe what the Self expresses, was part of the original |
T3:22.4 | injunction to resign as your own teacher. The other is the | ability to cease all acts of comparison. |
T3:22.11 | The | ability to cease all acts of comparison will arise out of this |
T4:2.15 | The | ability to observe what the Self expresses was among the original |
T4:2.23 | life or on your part of the world. But unless you believe in the | ability for what happens to have an effect on you, you do not |
T4:2.24 | of observance must come a new understanding of relationship and the | ability of the devotion of the observant to affect those |
T4:2.28 | and relationship, where they saw themselves in separation. This | ability to see in union and relationship is the shared vision to |
T4:4.9 | It is the time during which you have within your awareness the | ability to come into your time of fullness by accepting the |
T4:4.9 | the inheritance of your Father. You have the awareness and thus the | ability to accept the continuity of life-everlasting. |
T4:5.13 | death. At that time it is your judgment of yourself and your | ability to believe in the glory that is yours, that determines the |
T4:5.13 | is true right now! For this is the time of Christ and thus of your | ability to choose Christ-consciousness, the consciousness returned to |
T4:7.1 | will be temporary or sustainable depending on your | ability to refrain from judgment. What is flows from Love and knows |
T4:7.7 | an end to your learning is in sight. Christ-consciousness and the | ability to know what is, once it has reached a state of |
T4:8.6 | from your own true nature, which in turn caused a disconnect in your | ability to express love, which in turn caused a disconnect in your |
T4:8.6 | ability to express love, which in turn caused a disconnect in your | ability to know God, because you did not know yourself. |
T4:8.15 | by it? Is not the very essence of consciousness itself this | ability to come to know continuously? To be aware constantly of what |
T4:10.10 | and relationship to your mind and heart. This returned to you your | ability to recognize or identify your Self as other than a separate |
T4:10.11 | being accomplished, is synonymous with knowing who you are and the | ability to express who you are in truth. |
T4:12.17 | This is just a beginning point of your | ability to see what learned wisdom has wrought. This is a necessary |
T4:12.20 | The only thing that is going to hold you back from your | ability to sustain Christ-consciousness is doubt about yourself. You |
T4:12.20 | because you have no cause for fear. To dwell in fear will end your | ability to dwell within the love that is Christ-consciousness. As |
D:2.1 | true identity. Those of you who found within this willingness an | ability to receive and left behind your effort to “learn” this |
D:3.5 | As the wholehearted, you have it within your | ability to do what those who live their lives with a split mind could |
D:3.5 | lives with a split mind could never do. You have it within your | ability to mend the rift of duality, a state that was necessary for |
D:5.1 | “imitation” of creation was often spoken of. This was about your | ability to “remember” much of creation in a non-cognitive, intuitive |
D:5.2 | you assigned meaning or “truth” to things, truly believing in your | ability to do so. You thus determined what the world around you was |
D:8.2 | bound by this constraint. In all of your life, you can think of no | ability you have not achieved through learning. And yet most of you |
D:8.2 | you might have said or been told you have a natural talent or | ability to do. These things some of you have practiced or studied to |
D:8.2 | of you have practiced or studied to take advantage of your natural | ability and in doing so may have found a continued ability to learn |
D:8.2 | of your natural ability and in doing so may have found a continued | ability to learn faster or achieve more in this area than those who |
D:8.2 | by not being able to be the “best” despite your natural talent or | ability, and have given up “working hard” to be the best. Others who |
D:8.3 | instead on the very simple idea of each of you containing a natural | ability or talent that existed in some form prior to the time of |
D:8.3 | on this idea merely as an idea and not in terms of the specific | ability it may represent. We concentrate on this idea as the first |
D:8.4 | You might think of this | ability that existed prior to the time of learning as coming from the |
D:8.4 | realized that you are “more” than your body, your natural talent or | ability has been one of the primary factors leading to this |
D:8.4 | to this realization because a part of you has always known this | ability was a “given.” That you are gifted—given to—and able to |
D:8.6 | that although you had not previously known that this talent or | ability existed, it was there awaiting but your discovery. You may |
D:8.6 | You may also have seen that in the expression of this talent or | ability new discoveries awaited you and that you greeted these |
D:8.9 | your new means of thinking. What has been learned will become an | ability to think wholeheartedly, or with mind and heart in union, and |
D:8.9 | think wholeheartedly, or with mind and heart in union, and then that | ability will transcend ability and wholehearted will become what you |
D:8.9 | with mind and heart in union, and then that ability will transcend | ability and wholehearted will become what you are, and |
D:8.10 | to express yourself in the past is very likely linked to the natural | ability or talent you did not have to learn, to that which was given |
D:8.12 | place of shared consciousness, the place of wholeness. The natural | ability that you recognize as a given and unlearned aspect of your |
D:9.14 | circle and accept that your discovery of your natural talent or | ability and your discovery of new ideas are discoveries of something |
D:11.11 | time and time again. What prevents this belief from becoming an | ability and prevents it from going from being an ability to simply |
D:11.11 | from becoming an ability and prevents it from going from being an | ability to simply being who you are, is your thoughts—thoughts that |
D:12.8 | of your conscious awareness through this realization that the | ability of “thoughts” not your own to enter you is already |
D:14.13 | to be recognized. Once recognized it will begin to be regarded as an | ability. And finally, through experience, it will become your |
D:14.15 | time. It proceeds to this awareness being accepted, adopted as an | ability, and then to becoming your new identity. It proceeds to the |
D:16.5 | unified within each of us, bring light to each of us; they bring the | ability to see, the ability to know, the ability to be, the ability |
D:16.5 | of us, bring light to each of us; they bring the ability to see, the | ability to know, the ability to be, the ability to create. Through |
D:16.5 | each of us; they bring the ability to see, the ability to know, the | ability to be, the ability to create. Through the art of thought, |
D:16.5 | the ability to see, the ability to know, the ability to be, the | ability to create. Through the art of thought, these abilities become |
D:Day1.1 | Christian faith. To others it will seem an acceptance beyond your | ability, an acceptance that there is no real cause to request. Why |
D:Day1.8 | Why are we so linked that your | ability to know your Self is contingent upon your ability to know me? |
D:Day1.8 | linked that your ability to know your Self is contingent upon your | ability to know me? Because I am. This is akin to saying Love is. I |
D:Day3.7 | change your inner life, but are more skeptical in regard to its | ability to affect your outer life; and nowhere are you more skeptical |
D:Day3.32 | a well-loved book, dinner with a friend, a new car, a new pet, the | ability to provide a child with a good education. |
D:Day4.7 | evolution, has not left any of you. You all begin life without the | ability to think in the terms you now associate almost exclusively |
D:Day4.9 | The | ability to learn is given to all in like measure. The conformity of |
D:Day5.11 | between unity and love and that difference would seem to be love’s | ability to be given away. |
D:Day6.15 | to come first, lack of cause for worry will have to come first, an | ability to focus on other than daily life will have to come first. |
D:Day6.27 | As your belief grows in our | ability to accomplish together our given task, you are almost surely |
D:Day6.30 | of seeming difficulty is an end to difficulty and the growth of your | ability to do whatever you do peacefully and to be who you are in any |
D:Day7.7 | contracting into nothingness. Time is replaced by presence, by your | ability to exist in the here and now in acceptance and without fear. |
D:Day7.20 | of the future or the past but that you cannot make it so. Thus your | ability to maintain and then sustain your access to union and thus |
D:Day7.20 | access to union and thus your certainty, goes hand-in-hand with your | ability to live in the present. This ability is also contingent upon |
D:Day7.20 | goes hand-in-hand with your ability to live in the present. This | ability is also contingent upon your recognition of what certainty |
D:Day8.21 | your feelings in present time and begin to be aware of your natural | ability to respond truly because you have accepted your feelings in |
D:Day9.4 | feel confident in your feelings, who do not feel confident in your | ability to respond, who do not as yet feel the freedom of the new, |
D:Day9.5 | the certainty of unity if the self of form has no confidence in its | ability to express it? Expression of the certainty of unity is what |
D:Day9.6 | of what your mind would think or heart would feel. But take away the | ability to express what the mind would think or heart would feel, and |
D:Day9.16 | as well as those of the ego. The idea of your “potential” and your | ability to be “more” than what your limited view of yourself would |
D:Day9.24 | Your freedom is contingent upon your | ability to give up your images, particularly the image you hold of an |
D:Day9.24 | the image you hold of an ideal self. It is contingent upon your | ability to accept that you are your ideal self. Yes, even right now, |
D:Day9.27 | that has caused your grief and pretensions. In a certain sense, your | ability to express the beauty and truth of who you are has been |
D:Day10.1 | Power is the | ability to be cause and effect. It is the ability to harness the |
D:Day10.1 | Power is the ability to be cause and effect. It is the | ability to harness the cause and effect power of love. It is a |
D:Day10.14 | and proof that you are “right” before you feel confidence and the | ability to act. To “know” before you act is wise. But to think that |
D:Day14.1 | we heal now by calling on wholeness, accepting the healed self’s | ability to be chosen while not encountering resistance or any |
D:Day15.11 | observance in every situation, it is necessary to practice the | ability to inform and be informed with others who have reached this |
D:Day15.12 | being informed? It means to join together with others who have the | ability to maintain Christ-consciousness in your company. This |
D:Day15.24 | without being divided. As you re-enter life on level-ground, this | ability to carry an undivided but spacious consciousness with you |
D:Day15.26 | are made known, your purpose here will become more clear. Thus your | ability to embrace all while focusing on your own purpose in being |
D:Day15.28 | being an idealized form of the self. Now are you ready, through your | ability to view your own Self as well as that which you observe with |
D:Day17.10 | by many other individuals as well. The way was a choice. The main | ability of the individual is the ability to represent what God |
D:Day17.10 | The way was a choice. The main ability of the individual is the | ability to represent what God created, the means of coming to know— |
D:Day27.1 | of your life, of keeping it within your understanding, within your | ability to come to know, within your own grasp of it. You have been |
D:Day27.5 | because you have practiced during our mountain top time together the | ability to experience on two levels. |
D:Day27.6 | and spirit, both form and content. Now you contain within you the | ability to combine both levels of being through the experience of |
D:Day27.8 | the Nature of Unity and Its Recognition”, it will become a trusted | ability and, through practice, lose its dualistic seeming nature and |
D:Day27.10 | To be able to hold onto, apprehend, and carry with you the | ability to experience both levels of experience, the internal and the |
D:Day28.20 | that needs to occur, however. What will create the shift is the | ability to experience “time outside of time” and “time” |
D:Day29.1 | cease to be separate. Remember that you have already realized the | ability to participate in two levels of experience simultaneously and |
D:Day31.8 | separation. The acceptance of what is is the Source of union and the | ability to experience in wholeness. |
D:Day32.19 | however, a being that exists in relationship. The extent of your | ability to be in relationship is the extent of your ability to be |
D:Day32.19 | extent of your ability to be in relationship is the extent of your | ability to be god-like. |
D:Day40.30 | With this | ability to individuate in unity and relationship comes the greatest |
D:Day40.30 | and the beginning of being who you are. With this gift comes the | ability to be known and to know. Can you give up the ideal of your |
A.4 | the realm of perception by appealing to the heart and the heart’s | ability to learn in a new way. You are thus instructed not to apply |
A.33 | to be recognized. Once recognized it will begin to be regarded as an | ability. And finally, through experience it will become your |
A.49 | the world. It cannot be accomplished without you—without your | ability to stand in unity and relationship as The Accomplished. |

C:I.4 | You think that in order to share you must be | able to speak the same language and so you regress to the language of |
C:P.17 | believe that you alone can do what millions of others have not been | able to do? Or to believe that you, in union with God, can? What |
C:P.39 | Jesus who existed in history. This is the same way in which you are | able to see yourself—as man or woman, as a being existing in a |
C:P.40 | same. Someone telling you this story of transformation without being | able to show you proof that you could see would be accused of making |
C:2.6 | To believe that you are | able to act in love in one instance and act in anger in another, and |
C:6.1 | always imagined it to be. You have to forgive yourself for not being | able to make it on your own, because you have realized the |
C:9.20 | This is the only way you have been | able to see to bring relief to the nightmare of a life of fear. You |
C:9.26 | yet the very reality that you have set up—the reality of not being | able to succeed in what you must constantly strive to do—is a |
C:9.40 | and you would find yourself on the other side of the finish line, | able at last to rest. |
C:16.25 | of illusion in which you live, and so you think another must be | able to do it better. You no longer trust yourself with your own |
C:19.9 | belovedness as those long ago witnessed to mine? You have not been | able to do this thus far because you have desired specialness for |
C:19.14 | This is, in essence, why the greatest thinkers have not been | able to decipher the riddle, the mystery, of the divine, and why they |
C:20.35 | You have not before now been | able to even imagine knowing what you do. You hope to have moments of |
C:23.3 | Each of you is love inviolate. Yet relationally, you may be | able to “read each other’s thoughts,” be cognizant of the slightest |
C:25.21 | discernment occur. Discernment is needed only until you are better | able to comprehend the whole. Comprehension of the whole is aided by |
C:31.11 | as yourself is the closest answer to the truth that you were | able, in your limited view of yourself, to come up with. There is a |
C:31.25 | opposite to telling an untruth or lie. Thus were born ideas of being | able to keep truth a secret, one of the most ridiculous ideas of the |
C:31.29 | Self within your brothers and sisters, however, they must also be | able to look for their Selves in you. If you are constantly |
T1:1.4 | experience that you will receive the blessing of being | able to respond differently to love. |
T1:1.5 | experience arises, you will, if you trust your heart, be perfectly | able to identify illusion and truth. This is a simple act of |
T1:1.9 | you, making you The Accomplished. As The Accomplished, you now are | able to access universal mind. |
T1:3.11 | own loss. As great as the fear of miracles is, the fear of not being | able to perform is greater. You think of this as a test and one you |
T1:4.8 | This subjugation to the ego-mind is what led to the ego-mind being | able to develop the “laws of man.” These laws of man are the laws of |
T1:7.1 | perceived this inability to be who you are in terms of not being | able to do as you would desire to do, live as you would desire to |
T1:7.1 | moment, that you would strive to be, and the feeling of not being | able to be accomplished or complete will still be with you. Recall |
T2:5.1 | have concluded that when you listen to your heart, you hear and are | able to respond to the one call, this does not mean that this one |
T2:5.1 | as seeming demands. All call you to the present where response is | able to be given. All call you “back” to who you are. |
T2:7.13 | You will not accept giving and receiving as one if you feel | able only to give or as if “others” have nothing you would receive. |
T2:8.3 | as one. What you gain will take nothing from anyone. What another is | able to give you will take nothing from them, and what you are able |
T2:8.3 | is able to give you will take nothing from them, and what you are | able to give another will take nothing from you. |
T2:10.13 | have achieved wholeheartedness. You are in a state in which you are | able to learn. I am here to show you the way to the Christ in you. I |
T2:11.12 | and it is in relationship that union still exists. If you had been | able to choose separation without relationship, then the image of |
T2:11.13 | way, that there is a condition under which you are here and | able to experience life as a separate being. That condition is |
T2:12.2 | or devotion, leads to harmony through right action. Until you were | able to distinguish the false from the true, you were not able to |
T2:12.2 | you were able to distinguish the false from the true, you were not | able to receive the power of miracles. |
T2:12.7 | ability to call forth intercession as a gift and treasure you are | able to give in service to your brothers and sisters. |
T3:1.13 | where such work can be done. We work with what we have, a form fully | able to represent the truth and, in so doing, we bring the truth to |
T3:2.11 | certain parameters, for it has not allowed you to imagine being | able to take steps “back” to the God you believe you left in |
T3:3.9 | is still seen as a stumbling block. You might think that were you | able to live in some ideal community, away from all that has brought |
T3:3.9 | from all that has brought you to where you now are, you might be | able to put the beliefs of this Course into practice. If not quite |
T3:6.4 | blame is as old as time itself and the cause of bitterness being | able to exist, even within your hearts. |
T3:9.5 | of those you love and gently tug them through its doors. You will be | able to take note of the explosions happening within and will want to |
T3:10.2 | I ask you to forget as much of what you have learned as you are | able. |
T3:10.4 | But just as you have, from recognizing what it is you fear, been | able to bring those concerns to love, you can now do so with blame. |
T3:10.7 | learning and unlearning that was spoken of earlier will be | able to be realized. You have passed through your time of unlearning |
T3:10.9 | The first step in being | able to forget such thoughts is in recognizing them as separate and |
T3:10.14 | encountering those who still use that thought system, you will be | able to communicate with them. Yet the ease with which you |
T3:11.2 | of Truth also feel an awareness of Self. Without necessarily being | able to put it into words, they no longer feel the statement of “I |
T3:12.10 | What would be a greater step in all of creation than a physical self | able to choose to express the Self within the laws of love? A |
T3:12.10 | choose to express the Self within the laws of love? A physical self, | able to express itself from within the House of Truth in ways |
T3:13.14 | personal self. It is only in this way that the personal self will be | able to represent the Self in truth. |
T3:15.5 | failed to learn the prior year, while eager and confident in being | able to succeed in the current year, will continue to be plagued by |
T3:17.8 | of the illusion and the thought system of the ego-self and been | able to communicate within that illusion. Without this means of |
T3:19.12 | sick person is to blame for the illness within them. But you must be | able to look at and see reality for what it is. Just as we are |
T3:19.14 | Many who observe the new from the house of illusion will still be | able to deny what they see. Just think of how many saints and |
T3:19.16 | of getting to the truth will become so attractive that few will be | able to resist. What will make this choice so attractive will not be |
T3:20.7 | happening in relationship and that the relationship is meaningful or | able to cause effect. You can’t imagine not feeling “bad” given such |
T3:21.10 | conundrum. When you have never known what is you have never been | able to be certain. You have no experience with certainty other than |
T3:21.17 | enumerated above will act to challenge these beliefs unless you are | able to see them in a new light. No matter what you believe, while |
T3:22.2 | feel eagerness to share it and joy whenever and wherever you are | able to do so. But some of you will find that you do no more than |
T3:22.8 | what you are given to observe. The act of observation that you are | able to do with your eyes closed is the observation of what is. This |
T3:22.15 | and accomplishment, the tension that told you that you might be | able to achieve what you desire but that you also might not. Realize |
T4:1.13 | feeling that something different is possible; that you might just be | able to achieve what others have not; that this time might just be |
T4:1.23 | You may have thought it advantageous to have once been so clearly | able to see the contrast between good and evil and feel now as if |
T4:1.27 | Let me repeat that during the time of the Holy Spirit, some were | able to come to know themselves and God through the indirect means of |
T4:1.27 | and to pass on what they learned through indirect means. Fewer were | able to achieve a state of consciousness in which direct |
T4:5.4 | you as it exists in all else that lives. It is one Energy endlessly | able to materialize in an inexhaustible variety of forms. It is thus |
T4:5.4 | an inexhaustible variety of forms. It is thus one Energy endlessly | able to dematerialize and rematerialize in an inexhaustible variety |
T4:7.4 | but the freedom of a consciousness joined in unity, a consciousness | able to envision, imagine and desire without judgment and without |
T4:8.1 | so began this experience of human life. You are now beginning to be | able to understand that it was God who made this choice. This was the |
T4:8.9 | was needed in order to come into the time of fullness of a being | able to express itself in form, never realizing that this just |
T4:9.5 | learning that you have done seems to leave you ready to change and | able to change in certain ways that make life easier or more |
T4:9.5 | ways that make life easier or more peaceful, but certainly not | able to realize the transformation that your learning has seemed to |
T4:12.30 | help you to remain doubt-free and thus fear-free and continually | able to sustain Christ-consciousness, is coming to know the new |
D:2.1 | of Love that willingness was all that was necessary for you to be | able to take this Course into your heart and let it return you to |
D:2.3 | are not in quite the same category as the false remembering you were | able to purge through unlearning. |
D:3.8 | the self of form so that the Self and the elevated Self of form are | able to work with ideas birthed from the same source. |
D:6.26 | form you now enter into, but that the elevated Self of form is now | able to join with the Self in the unity of shared consciousness. You |
D:8.1 | body as the dot within the circle, I ask you to imagine now being | able to take a step outside of the area of this dot, and into the |
D:8.2 | prone to comparison, many of you have been discouraged by not being | able to be the “best” despite your natural talent or ability, and |
D:8.4 | this ability was a “given.” That you are gifted—given to—and | able to receive. And despite what science might have to say to you |
D:8.8 | taught from the realm of wholeheartedness. What was learned was only | able to be learned because you chose to become the wholehearted. You |
D:9.14 | the body; and if you accept that these ideas that already exist were | able to pass through you in order to gain expression in form; then |
D:13.6 | that exists in relationship. Once you have attained a state of being | able to sustain Christ consciousness, this will no longer be a |
D:13.8 | with separate thoughts, and with the idea that no one will ever be | able to truly know you. But join with others who are experiencing the |

C:27.10 | And what of God? Can you unlearn all concepts and free your mind to | accept all relationship instead? If all meaning and all truth lies in |
C:27.14 | To live in relationship is to | accept all that is happening in the present as your present reality, |
C:29.21 | what that inheritance is? Can you not follow me in my choice and | accept it as your own? |
C:29.26 | the return of gifts given. What gift of opportunity did you not | accept in the past, might you not recognize in the future? What gift |
C:31.8 | rely on the one Earth as part of a sameness and interdependence you | accept. You are aware that this Earth rests in a cosmos beyond your |
T1:4.17 | an independent thinker, something you have prized. Some of you will | accept another’s interpretation of meaning if it is helpful to you, |
T1:7.2 | Even the most spiritual and godly among you | accept suffering. Even those who understand as completely as possible |
T1:7.2 | who understand as completely as possible the truth of who they are | accept suffering. My use of the word accept is important here, as |
T1:7.2 | the truth of who they are accept suffering. My use of the word | accept is important here, as these may not see suffering as pain but |
T1:7.2 | and that that choice includes the choice to suffer. This belief may | accept suffering as a learning device rather than a punishment, but |
T1:7.2 | is conflict, the absence of truth illusion. This belief does not | accept that there is only one reality and that it must exist where |
T1:10.13 | This is what you have believed and why you have not chosen yet to | accept your inheritance. Yet let the memory of the truth return to |
T1:10.13 | all you have sought learning to attain. If you do not pause now and | accept that it is here, you will not know the Peace of God that is |
T2:1.4 | once hoped to have become abilities. You think this willingness to | accept who you are now is what this Course has led you to and |
T2:4.11 | does. You think it matters because you compare and judge rather than | accept. |
T2:4.14 | contemplate again the acceptance of where you are now. However, to | accept where you are is not the same as accepting who you are. |
T2:7.13 | For as long as you believe in your independence you will not | accept your dependence. You will not accept giving and receiving as |
T2:7.13 | your independence you will not accept your dependence. You will not | accept giving and receiving as one if you feel able only to give or |
T2:8.6 | This distinction must be fully realized here in order for you to | accept the truth of who you are and to come to an acceptance of the |
T2:9.15 | here, this adjustment in your thinking may seem difficult to | accept. How does the identification of needs or the dependency |
T2:9.18 | This phase of coming to | accept need and dependency is necessary only as a learning ground of |
T2:10.3 | information is contained within you and yet you are often forced to | accept an inability to have access to this information. It is forced |
T2:11.1 | Earlier this was pointed out to you so that you would come to | accept who you are and so that you would extend forgiveness to |
T3:2.4 | the beliefs put forth in “A Treatise on Unity,” you are asked to | accept a new belief regarding the choice we have called the |
T3:2.12 | sons and daughters of God. This discussion may have seemed to | accept the idea of a self as highly developed as an adolescent child, |
T3:9.1 | that this can be done and can be done by you in the here and now. To | accept these ideas without accepting their ability to be applied is |
T3:10.6 | will not be lessons that you find difficult or distressing if you | accept them as lessons and realize that all lessons are gifts. What |
T3:11.11 | of in tandem here: The temptation to judge and the temptation to | accept the existence of a reality other than the truth. |
T3:14.2 | that you do not enjoy the health, wealth or stature of some others, | accept your current status and begin to feel more peace and joy |
T3:16.17 | Accept one “part” or tenet of the truth and see the reverse take | |
T3:18.2 | with divine worship and devotion. Minds that have been unwilling to | accept or learn an unobservable truth, will now accept and learn from |
T3:18.2 | been unwilling to accept or learn an unobservable truth, will now | accept and learn from observable truth. This is why you must become |
T3:21.17 | Now however, you are being called to | accept your true identity even while you retain the form of your |
T4:1.8 | other words, no lack of choice. A choice is always made. A choice to | accept or reject, say yes or say no, to learn this or to learn that, |
T4:1.26 | by these, and they will not want it for their identity but only will | accept it until another identity is offered. |
T4:4.9 | of your Father. You have the awareness and thus the ability to | accept the continuity of life-everlasting. |
T4:6.8 | sustain Christ-consciousness. You can pass on the inheritance you | accept in this fullness of time. In this time of unity, dedicate all |
T4:6.8 | of time. In this time of unity, dedicate all thought to unity. | Accept no separation. Accept all choices. Thus are all chosen in the |
T4:6.8 | time of unity, dedicate all thought to unity. Accept no separation. | Accept all choices. Thus are all chosen in the fullness of time. |
T4:7.5 | the truth with your conscious awareness. While your mind did not | accept the truth of your identity or the reality of love without |
T4:7.5 | truth your heart has always known but has been unable to free you to | accept without the mind’s cooperation. |
T4:8.17 | to awareness of your true identity. Be done with learning now as you | accept who you truly are. |
T4:9.6 | Do not | accept this lack of fulfillment of a promise that has surely been |
T4:11.2 | you who are willing to leave learning behind and who are willing to | accept your new roles as creators of the new—creators of the future. |
T4:12.5 | beginning of sharing in unity, a change that your heart will gladly | accept but that your mind, once again, will be continuously surprised |
T4:12.34 | necessary to begin creation of the new. Your former willingness to | accept the old but kept creation’s power harnessed to the old. Does |
D:1.5 | you are already accomplished. What will it now take for your mind to | accept this truth? For the mind’s acceptance of this truth is what is |
D:1.6 | from the reality of old. Ideally, mind and heart in union together | accept this new reality and, with this acceptance, the heart is freed |
D:1.15 | been revealed and returned to your remembrance. To “know” and not | accept what you “know” to be the truth is a continuation of the |
D:1.16 | What I will help you now to do is to reject this insanity and to | accept the perfect sanity of the truth. |
D:1.24 | does not contain you. What you are going to find happening, as you | accept your true identity, is a transference of purpose concerning |
D:1.26 | know things that you know not. This is not the case. When you fully | accept this, you will see that it is true. Like the acceptance of |
D:2.1 | You are now asked to do two things simultaneously: To | accept the new and to deny the old. Acceptance is a willingness to |
D:2.2 | To deny is to refuse to | accept as true or right that which you know is not true or right. |
D:2.2 | just as means and end, cause and effect are one. You are asked to | accept or receive the truth of who you are and the revelations that |
D:2.2 | as who you are within the world—and you are asked to refuse to | accept who you are not and the ways of life that allowed you to live |
D:2.7 | is not a judgment but simply the truth. To learn the truth and not | accept it is different from learning what is necessary for a career. |
D:2.7 | learning what is necessary for a career. To learn the truth and not | accept the truth is insane. To learn the truth and not accept the |
D:2.7 | truth and not accept the truth is insane. To learn the truth and not | accept the completion of your learning is insane. |
D:2.17 | consider that no “system” is foolproof, and still be willing to | accept the bad with the good; but you would freely admit that your |
D:3.3 | the pioneers of the new. Your work, as will be often repeated, is to | accept the new, and deny or refuse to accept the old. Only in this |
D:3.3 | will be often repeated, is to accept the new, and deny or refuse to | accept the old. Only in this way will the new triumph over the old. |
D:3.4 | in this dialogue. I use them as I use together the words | accept and deny. As the old must be denied for the new to come into |
D:3.6 | of the conditions of learning. This does not mean, however, that you | accept goodness and deny evil or even that you accept love and deny |
D:3.6 | however, that you accept goodness and deny evil or even that you | accept love and deny fear. How can this be? |
D:4.11 | and learned enough during your time as a learning being that you | accept that a divine design created the universe and all that is in |
D:4.11 | are part of it. Remember that our goal here is to deny the old and | accept the new. In this case, the old you would deny is the idea of a |
D:4.11 | in which you are at the mercy of fate. The new idea you are asked to | accept is that existence is purposeful, that the universe exists in |
D:4.26 | come from your own authority and no place else. It is up to you to | accept that your release is possible, to desire it without fear, to |
D:4.29 | You | accept that what has been given is available. You accept and you |
D:4.29 | You accept that what has been given is available. You | accept and you receive. You realize that the first order of creation |
D:4.30 | suffering but will end suffering. Your part is to invite it and | accept it when it comes. State your willingness, accept the coming of |
D:4.30 | is to invite it and accept it when it comes. State your willingness, | accept the coming of your release, and prepare to leave your prison |
D:4.31 | must prevent you from the acceptance I call you to. Yet as you fully | accept that your right to your inheritance, your right to be who you |
D:5.11 | Remember now that you are not called to reinterpret but to | accept revelation. You will not arrive at the truth through thinking |
D:5.17 | your confusion concerning what is. This is crucial as you learn to | accept what is and to deny what is not. While the question of what is |
D:5.22 | exceed your trepidation. No longer wait to be told more before you | accept what you have already been told. Do not wait for a grander |
D:5.22 | have already been told. Do not wait for a grander call before you | accept the call that has already sounded in your heart. Let this be |
D:6.21 | we are leaving behind. As a non-learning being you are now called to | accept that you no longer need this type of learning device and to |
D:6.24 | —the pattern of acceptance. What might the body be called to | accept? This is an easy answer, as you have already called upon the |
D:6.24 | This is an easy answer, as you have already called upon the body to | accept the indwelling of Christ. You have replaced the personal self, |
D:6.28 | transformation of the self from a learning being to a being that can | accept the shared consciousness of unity and begin to discover what |
D:7.8 | form does not require you to be defined by particularity. You can | accept the body now as what it is in all its manifestations while not |
D:7.14 | Being in love is a definition of what you now are as you | accept the unconditional, nonjudgmental love of all. This is a |
D:7.15 | and desire you have been practicing in order to be ready to | accept revelation works hand in hand with the new pattern of |
D:8.5 | To | accept this is to accept that you have access to a “given” Self, to |
D:8.5 | To accept this is to | accept that you have access to a “given” Self, to something neither |
D:9.14 | return to the image of the body as the dot in the wider circle and | accept that your discovery of your natural talent or ability and your |
D:9.14 | that already existed beyond the dot of the body; and if you | accept that these ideas that already exist were able to pass through |
D:11.6 | a state of full acceptance of who you are, and in that state, fully | accept that your contribution is being made, will desire still be |
D:11.7 | is already accomplished. And yet, as soon as your thoughts begin to | accept this, many of you reverse the direction of your thoughts and |
D:11.8 | your idea of how these words have come to you, for if you can fully | accept the way in which these words have been given and received, you |
D:11.8 | words have been given and received, you will see that you can fully | accept the way of unity. |
D:11.10 | answers when this has been accepted. Because you will know and fully | accept that the answers lie within. |
D:12.1 | cessation of brain activity is equivalent to the end of thought, you | accept this as proof that your thoughts originate from within your |
D:17.14 | a state of full acceptance of who you are, and in that state, fully | accept that your contribution is being made, will desire still be |
D:Day1.3 | state. Without your acceptance of who I am, you will not fully | accept who you are. Without your willingness to achieve this |
D:Day1.4 | language for another, are these requirements waived? Let us just | accept that requirements are prerequisites for many states you value. |
D:Day1.5 | you believe and have found a connection to eternal life, only to | accept me as who I am. |
D:Day1.7 | If you are to succeed me, you must | accept me, much as you must accept your ascension to this mountain |
D:Day1.7 | If you are to succeed me, you must accept me, much as you must | accept your ascension to this mountain peak and this dialogue that is |
D:Day1.7 | can remain ambivalent about their source, you will not know me nor | accept me, and you will not know or accept your Self. |
D:Day1.7 | source, you will not know me nor accept me, and you will not know or | accept your Self. |
D:Day1.10 | the truth about outer space, I believe in my abilities; but I do not | accept the spacecraft as necessary.” Lest this example fail to move |
D:Day1.11 | you may see this example as an example of why you should not need to | accept me. You may claim that you understand that this power is of |
D:Day1.15 | devotion to one religious tradition or another matters not. That you | accept that I am he who can lead you beyond your life of misery to |
D:Day1.24 | within you. It only needs to be lived to become real. You must | accept me because I lived it and made it real for you. You must |
D:Day1.24 | must accept me because I lived it and made it real for you. You must | accept me because I am the part of you that can guide you beyond what |
D:Day1.28 | Lay aside your want of other answers, other stories, and | accept the story we share. The Bible and all holy texts can be seen |
D:Day2.3 | But I realize that you have not as yet developed the capacity to | accept this fully. For most of you, much of what you have considered |
D:Day2.11 | time for acceptance, even of these actions that you would rather not | accept. They happened. They were what they were. I ask you not to |
D:Day2.12 | actions led to divorce and the destruction of your home, can you not | accept that this is something that happened? We leave aside, for the |
D:Day2.15 | But just as you are called here to | accept me despite possible misgivings such as religious beliefs, you |
D:Day2.15 | possible misgivings such as religious beliefs, you are called to | accept yourself. This unconditional acceptance is necessary. I will |
D:Day2.17 | of you the crucifixion is among the reasons you hesitate to fully | accept me. It is hard for you to believe that my suffering was |
D:Day2.26 | But this will not happen if you cling to suffering. If you do not | accept your Self, all of yourself, you cling to suffering. |
D:Day2.27 | This is why you first needed to | accept me. To accept me is to accept the end of suffering. To accept |
D:Day2.27 | This is why you first needed to accept me. To | accept me is to accept the end of suffering. To accept the end of |
D:Day2.27 | This is why you first needed to accept me. To accept me is to | accept the end of suffering. To accept the end of suffering is to |
D:Day2.27 | to accept me. To accept me is to accept the end of suffering. To | accept the end of suffering is to accept your true Self. |
D:Day2.27 | to accept the end of suffering. To accept the end of suffering is to | accept your true Self. |
D:Day3.1 | Accept your anger for it is the next step in the continuum upon which | |
D:Day3.2 | are familiar with. In the area of the mind were you most willing to | accept teachers, leaders, guides, authorities, for only through them |
D:Day3.7 | increased stillness, will give you more peace, your mind that will | accept comfort of a certain type, even extending to a new |
D:Day3.15 | Yet how can you | accept yourself when you have feelings such as these? How can you |
D:Day3.15 | accept yourself when you have feelings such as these? How can you | accept the idea of inheritance with ideas such as these? How do you |
D:Day3.15 | accept the idea of inheritance with ideas such as these? How do you | accept me when you see me as symbolizing a life of “godly” poverty, |
D:Day3.25 | will come another’s loss. In other words, here is where you must | accept the teachings of this Course. |
D:Day3.27 | I do not ask you to give up what you desire, but to expect and | accept a response to what you desire. Remember that we are headed |
D:Day3.54 | shared. What good would it do you to say “if I had talent,” I would | accept and receive it, express and share it. “If I had a great idea,” |
D:Day3.54 | receive it, express and share it. “If I had a great idea,” I would | accept and receive it, express it and share it. And yet you continue |
D:Day3.54 | you continue to think that if you had money or abundance, you would | accept and receive it, express it and share it. |
D:Day3.58 | into an alternative reality, the reality of union—because you | accept that reality. |
D:Day3.59 | within this Course, this is a matter of all or nothing. You cannot | accept part of one reality and part of another. You cannot accept, |
D:Day3.59 | cannot accept part of one reality and part of another. You cannot | accept, for instance, the compassionate and loving benevolence of the |
D:Day3.59 | benevolence of the universe, of God, of the All of All, and still | accept the reality of lack. You cannot accept that in the reality of |
D:Day3.59 | of the All of All, and still accept the reality of lack. You cannot | accept that in the reality of unity all things come to you without |
D:Day3.59 | come to you without effort or striving except money. You cannot | accept that you no longer have to learn and accept the condition of |
D:Day3.59 | except money. You cannot accept that you no longer have to learn and | accept the condition of learning that is want. |
D:Day4.44 | again delayed. Here is where you say, I want it all, desire it all, | accept it all—for you cannot have of this in parts. Once full |
D:Day4.50 | This may seem odd timing as you have just been asked to | accept your anger. Just think. Anger was discussed rather casually |
D:Day4.50 | abundance no more so than the acceptance of anger. You are called to | accept and not look back, not to dwell in any of the states through |
D:Day4.50 | of one thing over another. You are not to label good or bad. Just to | accept. Accept all. You do not have to hesitate here because you |
D:Day4.50 | over another. You are not to label good or bad. Just to accept. | Accept all. You do not have to hesitate here because you think you |
D:Day4.50 | not accepted but dwell with the cause of your hesitation. When you | accept you move on. |
D:Day4.51 | answer now as to what is stopping you. Do you choose to dwell or to | accept? All, all you cannot bring forward with you is fear, for fear |
D:Day4.55 | the prodigal son. All that the prodigal son was asked to do was to | accept his own homecoming. Do you think he would have considered |
D:Day4.55 | father’s presence? Surely he would not have. You are asked but to | accept your own homecoming. To leave behind the time of wandering, |
D:Day5.20 | languor enfold you and apply no effort to what you read here. Just | accept what is given. All that is being given is the helpful hints |
D:Day6.31 | toward! This difficulty will pass through you as you allow for and | accept where you are right now and who you are right now. |
D:Day7.5 | time of learning was not one of support but one of effort. You must | accept, now, that the pattern of learning is an extension of fear and |
D:Day7.5 | our goal is the elevation of form. If for no other reason, begin to | accept this support of form because it makes sense. It is logical. |
D:Day8.2 | but to join with it? Love it. Love yourself. Love yourself enough to | accept yourself. Love will transform normal, ordinary, life into |
D:Day8.3 | of what you do not like. Do you really think you are being called to | accept “normal life?” Called to accept those conditions that have |
D:Day8.3 | really think you are being called to accept “normal life?” Called to | accept those conditions that have made you feel unhappy? No! You are |
D:Day8.4 | stem from the details of your life. Even so, you are not called to | accept what you do not like, but to accept that you don’t like |
D:Day8.4 | Even so, you are not called to accept what you do not like, but to | accept that you don’t like whatever it is you don’t like. Then, and |
D:Day8.5 | Do you judge peas if you do not like them? And yet, do you not | accept that you are at the mercy of situations of all kinds? A job |
D:Day8.5 | that you do not like it, but you may just as often say that you | accept it. You may, in fact, need a job that you do not like, but in |
D:Day8.7 | and in this confusion have been “trying” and even “struggling” to | accept what you do not like in order to be more true to an ideal |
D:Day8.7 | Yet this ideal self is not the self you are right now. You cannot | accept only an ideal self. This is nonsense. Can you not see this? |
D:Day8.9 | have felt that to say you do not like it is to judge it, or that to | accept what is, is to accept that people gossip. These false ideas |
D:Day8.9 | you do not like it is to judge it, or that to accept what is, is to | accept that people gossip. These false ideas about acceptance may |
D:Day8.9 | situation, will enable you not to participate, judge, or appear to | accept that which you do not truly find acceptable. |
D:Day8.13 | showing your righteous contempt for the actions of others, but to | accept who you are within the relationship of that present moment. |
D:Day8.14 | will have remnants of righteousness attached to it if you do not | accept the feelings generated by it. You may know that you dislike |
D:Day8.17 | a reason for this discussion coming so late in our time together. To | accept the feelings of the self of illusion would have been to accept |
D:Day8.17 | To accept the feelings of the self of illusion would have been to | accept the feelings generated by the fear of the ego thought system |
D:Day8.17 | system or the bitterness of your heart. It would have been to | accept the feelings of a personal self who had not yet unlearned the |
D:Day8.19 | see only the truth, to see beyond illusion, and then to be told to | accept the feelings of others? It should not. While true compassion |
D:Day8.21 | will no longer be the source of the misdirection of the past if you | accept your feelings in present time and begin to be aware of your |
D:Day8.28 | be to realize you have no need to do this! How freeing it will be to | accept all of your feelings and not to puzzle over which are true and |
D:Day9.20 | we are doing here together. For if you believe this, you will not | accept your Self as you are. If you do not accept your Self as you |
D:Day9.20 | this, you will not accept your Self as you are. If you do not | accept your Self as you are, you will not move from image to |
D:Day9.21 | would seek to follow their teachings. This desire of “followers” to | accept an image is less prevalent now but still a common danger. |
D:Day9.24 | you hold of an ideal self. It is contingent upon your ability to | accept that you are your ideal self. Yes, even right now, with all |
D:Day9.27 | of who you are by being alive. It has only been your inability to | accept this that has caused your grief and pretensions. In a certain |
D:Day10.12 | access to unity may be less difficult for you to become aware of and | accept than the confidence in the self of form that must accompany |
D:Day10.20 | not to give up your relationship with me as the man Jesus, but to | accept that the man Jesus was simply a representation, in form, of |
D:Day14.10 | is real and in our realization of the reality of relationship, we | accept our relationship to the unexplainable. |
D:Day15.1 | know on your own you will have entered the dialogue. When you fully | accept that the voice of the one can be heard in the voice of the |
D:Day15.2 | by you. We have just spoken of the unknown and your willingness to | accept your relationship with it in order for you to come to know it. |
D:Day15.16 | judgment with neutrality or acceptance. Allowing others to | accept you as you are is a gift that releases them from judgment and |
D:Day15.17 | to not knowing is through stagnating in a “known” place. To cease to | accept the unknown is to cease to come to know. |
D:Day15.24 | is also a beginning to the practice of realizing and being able to | accept a certain duality. Without necessarily realizing it, your |
D:Day16.1 | the unknown, is full consciousness. Acceptance is key. You can’t | accept what you fear. |
D:Day16.11 | or control you can alter the situation for the better. Only when you | accept that no feelings are bad will you allow yourself to come to |
D:Day18.5 | light in darkness provides for a knowing of light. Those who | accept completion of the way of Jesus accept their power to be |
D:Day18.5 | a knowing of light. Those who accept completion of the way of Jesus | accept their power to be generators of light in darkness without |
D:Day18.5 | of light in darkness without judging or expelling darkness. They | accept their power to represent both the known and the unknown and to |
D:Day18.5 | and the unknown and to reveal the unknown through the known. They | accept the death of the self and the resurrection of the One Self, |
D:Day21.3 | The receiver was thus also the source because the receiver had to | accept or “give” what was offered, to herself. |
D:Day21.9 | as a teacher in order to bring you to the place of being willing to | accept that a teacher was not needed. He joined you on the mountain |
D:Day22.9 | of your union with God and to the new world you can create once you | accept and make real this union. |
D:Day28.16 | internal rather external conditions. It makes no sense, however, to | accept what is not the truth. Most of what is not the truth has been |
D:Day35.19 | thought of creating as God creates. You have barely been able to | accept the thought of the miracle! |
D:Day36.15 | creativity and knowing or perception is to be one in being with God. | Accept this, for this is what God is and what you are. This is being. |
D:Day36.16 | that you are one in being with God and different in relationship you | accept the power of being, or individuating God. You accept the power |
D:Day36.16 | you accept the power of being, or individuating God. You | accept the power of God. You become powerful. |
D:Day36.18 | by God whom you have always been one with in being. You simply | accept the truth of being and the truth of being in union and |
D:Day36.18 | Both/and rather than either/or. Cause and Effect. Means and End. You | accept the end of choice and the beginning of creation. |
D:Day36.19 | for you to be able to reach this place where you may be able to | accept this new idea which is simply the truth. It is the same truth |
D:Day39.9 | and individuation requires relationship. Thus you must now | accept yourself as Christ, or as the bridge of relationship between |
D:Day39.11 | who we both are, is all that is required. The relationship that you | accept with me is the relationship of union, for union is no more |
D:Day39.41 | is why we have had to enter the time of non-learning—so that you | accept that you do not have to try to learn the unlearnable. This is |
D:Day40.23 | Now, as you recognize, acknowledge, and | accept the Christ as the Self you have been in relationship with, you |
D:Day40.27 | Is this really so difficult, so improbable, so discomfiting to | accept? Does it become less difficult if you remember who I Am? That |
E.3 | our mountain top time together is only here to help you realize and | accept that this will be so. Do not expect difficulties and they will |
E.22 | a purpose that will be so clear to you that you will joyously | accept yourself for who you are being. So be it. |
A.5 | means of learning as is possible for you. If you do not understand, | accept that you do not understand and go on. Listen to the words as |
A.13 | Through receptivity, what your mind finds difficult to | accept, your heart accepts with ease. Now you are ready to question |

A.18 | to accept. To give up effort for receptivity is more than some can | accept. Why? Because it is too difficult. It goes against all you |

D:2.1 | You are now asked to do two things simultaneously: To | accept the new and to deny the old. Acceptance is a willingness to |
D:3.3 | the pioneers of the new. Your work, as will be often repeated, is to | accept the new, and deny or refuse to accept the old. Only in this |
D:4.11 | are part of it. Remember that our goal here is to deny the old and | accept the new. In this case, the old you would deny is the idea of a |

D:Day2.26 | But this will not happen if you cling to suffering. If you do not | accept your Self, all of yourself, you cling to suffering. |
D:Day9.20 | we are doing here together. For if you believe this, you will not | accept your Self as you are. If you do not accept your Self as you |
D:Day9.20 | this, you will not accept your Self as you are. If you do not | accept your Self as you are, you will not move from image to |

D:Day3.15 | Yet how can you | accept yourself when you have feelings such as these? How can you |
D:Day8.2 | but to join with it? Love it. Love yourself. Love yourself enough to | accept yourself. Love will transform normal, ordinary, life into |
D:Day39.9 | and individuation requires relationship. Thus you must now | accept yourself as Christ, or as the bridge of relationship between |
E.22 | a purpose that will be so clear to you that you will joyously | accept yourself for who you are being. So be it. |

C:P.26 | is, in fact, the only place where unconditional love is seen as | acceptable. Thus, no matter how good one child is perceived to be and |
C:P.26 | not earn the love that is given him or her, and this too is seen as | acceptable and even “right.” |
C:P.41 | your own self in this same frame of mind? It is a nice fairytale, an | acceptable myth, but until your body’s eyes can behold the proof, |
C:7.21 | who have developed reliance on ways of knowing not governed by the | acceptable senses are seen as suspect. And yet you accept many causes |
C:18.17 | the norm, and thoughts that dart about in a chaotic fashion are as | acceptable and seemingly as inevitable to you as breathing. A split |

D:Day15.11 | you are engaged in this specific mountain top dialogue. It is not an | acceptable state for full-scale interaction with the world. Although |

T2:7.10 | this Course has not called you to a static state of sameness, an | acceptance of who you are that does not allow for change. But once |

T2:8.5 | will not change. As we have said that you are not called to a static | acceptance that does not include change, this new idea of acceptance |
T2:8.5 | a static acceptance that does not include change, this new idea of | acceptance requires further clarification. |
T2:8.6 | order for you to accept the truth of who you are and to come to an | acceptance of the unchangeable nature of this truth. This is akin to |

T4:7.5 | appeal of this Course and worked with your mind to bring about this | acceptance of the truth, a truth your heart has always known but has |
D:1.5 | will it now take for your mind to accept this truth? For the mind’s | acceptance of this truth is what is needed. |
D:1.6 | and heart in union together accept this new reality and, with this | acceptance, the heart is freed to dwell in the house of the Lord, the |
D:1.7 | This | acceptance is crucial to the elevation of the personal self. Without |
D:1.7 | is crucial to the elevation of the personal self. Without this | acceptance the personal self must still struggle and try, prepare and |
D:1.10 | to elevate the personal self. This elevation occurs through the | acceptance of your true identity, not through being identity-less. |
D:1.12 | renaming ceremonies that symbolize the release of the old and the | acceptance of the new. This occurs in one form or another in the |
D:1.16 | the truth has been learned, the nature of untruth remains only as an | acceptance of insanity. What I will help you now to do is to reject |
D:1.18 | shown, this will not occur by means of preparation but by means of | acceptance. This will not occur by means of trying but by means of |
D:1.26 | When you fully accept this, you will see that it is true. Like the | acceptance of unity that could not be taught, but was the condition |
D:1.26 | unity that could not be taught, but was the condition for learning, | acceptance of your true identity cannot be taught but is the |
D:1.27 | Thus we work now toward | acceptance of what you have learned in unity. We work towards your |
D:1.27 | acceptance of what you have learned in unity. We work towards your | acceptance of sanity and your rejection of insanity. We work together |
D:2.1 | do two things simultaneously: To accept the new and to deny the old. | Acceptance is a willingness to receive. Obviously, when you consider |
D:2.1 | to receive. Obviously, when you consider this definition of | acceptance, you will see that this is not the way of the old. |
D:2.1 | of replacing the old patterns of learning with the new pattern of | acceptance. |
D:2.2 | is not true or right. This is the denial of insanity in favor of the | acceptance of sanity, the denial of the false for the acceptance of |
D:2.2 | favor of the acceptance of sanity, the denial of the false for the | acceptance of the true. Although you are called to these two actions |
D:2.2 | you are called to these two actions simultaneously—the action of | acceptance and the action of denial—it can thus be seen that they |
D:2.4 | end, continuation of this pattern will but interfere with your full | acceptance of who you are in truth. |
D:2.9 | serve you. We speak of denying modes of learning in favor of simple | acceptance of what is. |
D:2.23 | upon the path of your brothers and sisters. Do you not see that your | acceptance of this promise is the acceptance of your own promise? Do |
D:2.23 | sisters. Do you not see that your acceptance of this promise is the | acceptance of your own promise? Do you not see that acceptance of the |
D:2.23 | promise is the acceptance of your own promise? Do you not see that | acceptance of the new and denial of the old is the necessary |
D:3.1 | sorrow and victory triumphs over defeat. All that it requires is the | acceptance of the new and the denial of the old that will allow for |
D:3.6 | of learning are no longer necessary. Thus one of your first acts of | acceptance is the acceptance of the end of the conditions of |
D:3.6 | longer necessary. Thus one of your first acts of acceptance is the | acceptance of the end of the conditions of learning. This does not |
D:3.7 | learning. This is why we began quite truthfully and simply with an | acceptance of the new and denial of the old. This is as far as |
D:3.7 | an acceptance of the new and denial of the old. This is as far as | acceptance and denial need go. For if you give credence to the ideas |
D:3.7 | We achieve victory now through surrender, an active and total | acceptance of what is given. |
D:3.13 | you need to know. What we seek to achieve through this dialogue is | acceptance and awareness of what you know. Acceptance is easily |
D:3.13 | through this dialogue is acceptance and awareness of what you know. | Acceptance is easily achieved through willingness. Full awareness in |
D:4.13 | Thus far, we are merely working together to create a pattern of | acceptance to replace the pattern of learning. |
D:4.18 | Let us simply create a new structure around the new pattern of | acceptance, a structure that will provide you with the home on Earth |
D:4.20 | way begins at the prison doors, begins, as we said earlier, with | acceptance of the new and denial of the old. Turn your back on the |
D:4.24 | Let this | acceptance of your own internal authority be your first “act” of |
D:4.24 | acceptance of your own internal authority be your first “act” of | acceptance rather than learning. Turn to this as the new pattern and |
D:4.31 | protests and the reasons that you feel must prevent you from the | acceptance I call you to. Yet as you fully accept that your right to |
D:4.31 | different for everyone and yet the same for everyone. That answer is | acceptance of your Self. That answer is acceptance of the new you. |
D:4.31 | for everyone. That answer is acceptance of your Self. That answer is | acceptance of the new you. |
D:5.11 | old way that led to so much misinterpretation and misrepresentation. | Acceptance of what is given is acceptance of what is given. All was |
D:5.11 | and misrepresentation. Acceptance of what is given is | acceptance of what is given. All was given to you to remind you of |
D:5.14 | be what it is in truth. This is the return of love to love. This is | acceptance of your Self. |
D:5.15 | then is the call to creation that has been spoken of? This is the | acceptance of the new you—acceptance that you are going beyond |
D:5.15 | that has been spoken of? This is the acceptance of the new you— | acceptance that you are going beyond simple recognition and |
D:5.15 | you—acceptance that you are going beyond simple recognition and | acceptance of the Self as God created the Self—to the living of |
D:5.15 | created the Self—to the living of this Self in form. This is an | acceptance that recognizes that while the Self that God created is |
D:5.19 | the elevation of form. And what we have discussed thus far is the | acceptance of form as what it is. This is the new reality you have |
D:5.21 | the patterns of learning will change to help you embrace the | acceptance of this new time of no time. You will wonder how to live |
D:5.21 | as a being no longer bound by time. And I tell you truly, that once | acceptance of what is is complete, we will go on to these questions |
D:5.22 | let today’s dialogue serve as a final call, a most emphatic call, to | acceptance. See the importance of this acceptance to everything that |
D:5.22 | a most emphatic call, to acceptance. See the importance of this | acceptance to everything that is still to come. Hesitate no longer. |
D:6.2 | false that aided your learning may now work as a detriment to your | acceptance as you cling to ideas concerning false representation |
D:6.17 | to see the enormity of the thought reversal that now awaits your | acceptance. As I said earlier, we begin by applying this new attitude |
D:6.24 | of but one replacement for the pattern of learning—the pattern of | acceptance. What might the body be called to accept? This is an easy |
D:7.4 | for learning. Now experience is needed in time to aid your total | acceptance of what you have learned. In order to experience the new |
D:7.17 | is still related to the self of form. It is a step toward full | acceptance and awareness of who you are now and what this means as |
D:9.2 | The final thought reversal that was spoken of in the section on | acceptance is what is spoken of here. There you were asked to become |
D:9.4 | remains one of thought. This pattern is what the new patterns of | acceptance and discovery that we are beginning to lay out here are |
D:10.3 | the effort of teaching and learning limits them. It is your joyous | acceptance of the already accomplished state of these givens that |
D:10.7 | In this time of Christ, discovery is about | acceptance of your true way of knowing, a way that existed prior to |
D:11.4 | thought of the separated thought system of the separated self. Your | acceptance of the concepts in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought” was |
D:11.6 | as learning now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full | acceptance of who you are, and in that state, fully accept that your |
D:11.7 | The way to achieve this state is through | acceptance that it is already accomplished. And yet, as soon as your |
D:12.6 | This is why we work now on your awareness and | acceptance of your changed state, for without awareness the value of |
D:14.1 | Discovery is more, of course, than the | acceptance of your accomplishment and these beginning steps into the |
D:14.9 | unity in which all exist along with you, was advanced by the idea of | acceptance you took to heart earlier, and paves the way for discovery |
D:14.13 | through your form, thus elevating the self of form. It is awareness, | acceptance, and discovery of what is beyond form that allows the |
D:14.13 | of what is beyond form into expression in form. Awareness, | acceptance, and discovery are, in short, what allow form to become |
D:15.21 | When this time of becoming has ended, the conditions that allow your | acceptance and discovery of all that is available within unity, or |
D:16.12 | of becoming. And yet, as you have begun your practice of awareness, | acceptance, and discovery, you have felt as if you still have a long |
D:16.19 | memories of childhood. This time of becoming is a time of coming to | acceptance of them as what they are—images. This time of becoming |
D:16.19 | what they are—images. This time of becoming is a time of coming to | acceptance that they are not real. They are no more real than the |
D:17.14 | as learning now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full | acceptance of who you are, and in that state, fully accept that your |
D:17.20 | may have initially felt with this realization has been replaced by | acceptance. Acceptance has come because you recognize the signs of |

D:Day1.1 | Acceptance of me is acceptance of your Self. Acceptance of me is | acceptance of your inheritance. This is nothing new to those of you |
D:Day1.1 | to those of you of the Christian faith. To others it will seem an | acceptance beyond your ability, an acceptance that there is no real |
D:Day1.1 | faith. To others it will seem an acceptance beyond your ability, an | acceptance that there is no real cause to request. Why must Jesus be |
D:Day1.2 | Beliefs are not what is being spoken of here. | Acceptance is. Acceptance is not belief, it is not prayer. I care not |

D:Day1.3 | you here, not to a place but to an ascended state. Without your | acceptance of who I am, you will not fully accept who you are. |
D:Day1.3 | fully accept who you are. Without your willingness to achieve this | acceptance, you will not receive the secret of succession presented |
D:Day1.4 | Why should this be so important? Why not leave well enough alone? If | acceptance of Jesus is a stumbling block for many, why should it be |
D:Day2.1 | Acceptance of your Self is acceptance of me. Acceptance of your Self | |
D:Day2.1 | Acceptance of your Self is | acceptance of me. Acceptance of your Self is acceptance of your |
D:Day2.1 | Acceptance of your Self is acceptance of me. | Acceptance of your Self is acceptance of your inheritance. Now is the |
D:Day2.1 | of your Self is acceptance of me. Acceptance of your Self is | acceptance of your inheritance. Now is the time to come into full |
D:Day2.1 | is acceptance of your inheritance. Now is the time to come into full | acceptance of the human self as well as the Self of unity. It is time |
D:Day2.11 | Now is the time for | acceptance, even of these actions that you would rather not accept. |
D:Day2.11 | but this difference does not place these actions beyond the idea of | acceptance. |
D:Day2.12 | they are negative or positive in your judgment. We look for a simple | acceptance of the facts of your life. |
D:Day2.13 | you could change. These actions are unchangeable. This is why simple | acceptance is needed. |
D:Day2.15 | beliefs, you are called to accept yourself. This unconditional | acceptance is necessary. I will give you one final example in order |
D:Day3.3 | this learning and “accepted” it as the way things are. This kind of | acceptance is what we are reversing with a new acceptance. |
D:Day3.3 | are. This kind of acceptance is what we are reversing with a new | acceptance. |
D:Day3.6 | is where your greatest anger, and your greatest lack of belief and | acceptance, lies. |
D:Day3.49 | bargaining represents is yet another stage in your movement toward | acceptance. It is still based on the belief that you are responsible |
D:Day3.51 | The final stage in this process, this movement toward | acceptance, is depression, a lowering of spirits and energy, a lack |
D:Day3.52 | letting-go, the final surrender that is necessary for the final | acceptance to come into being. |
D:Day3.56 | and depression are to lead you to this belief and, finally, to this | acceptance. Acceptance first that you do not believe. And then |
D:Day3.56 | are to lead you to this belief and, finally, to this acceptance. | Acceptance first that you do not believe. And then acceptance itself. |
D:Day3.56 | this acceptance. Acceptance first that you do not believe. And then | acceptance itself. |
D:Day3.57 | Do you see the difference, even here, in belief and | acceptance? Can you begin to see acceptance as an active function, |
D:Day3.57 | even here, in belief and acceptance? Can you begin to see | acceptance as an active function, much as learning was an active |
D:Day3.57 | as an active function, much as learning was an active function? | Acceptance is an active function. It is something given you to do. |
D:Day3.58 | While you think of | acceptance as just another word, another concept, another trick of |
D:Day3.60 | Active | acceptance is what allows the great transformation from life as you |
D:Day3.61 | This is what you have to do. This is the action required. The active | acceptance of abundance is the way to abundance. Active acceptance is |
D:Day3.61 | The active acceptance of abundance is the way to abundance. Active | acceptance is a way of being in relationship with all that flows from |
D:Day4.1 | that may be surfacing as you begin to move through the steps toward | acceptance. Your anger will be serving you here as it brings |
D:Day4.39 | If you are still willing to say that you can go only so far in your | acceptance of the truth of who you really are, then our purpose of |
D:Day4.49 | you will know this, and you will pass through the time of coming to | acceptance again and again until you are ready. You cannot fail but |
D:Day4.49 | the time of delay has passed. For those who linger in the time of | acceptance, there is reason for this as well. |
D:Day4.50 | abundance. But none of these things are meant to be dwelt upon. The | acceptance of abundance no more so than the acceptance of anger. You |
D:Day4.50 | to be dwelt upon. The acceptance of abundance no more so than the | acceptance of anger. You are called to accept and not look back, not |
D:Day4.50 | back, not to dwell in any of the states through which you arrive at | acceptance, nor to focus on acceptance of one thing over another. You |
D:Day4.50 | the states through which you arrive at acceptance, nor to focus on | acceptance of one thing over another. You are not to label good or |
D:Day4.51 | To be called to make a new choice before full | acceptance of what is would be confusing. You who are thinking that |
D:Day4.51 | who are thinking that you have not moved through the stages to full | acceptance answer now as to what is stopping you. Do you choose to |
D:Day4.52 | are only reactions to faulty perceptions, only the steps toward | acceptance until they are accepted. |
D:Day4.53 | full access and awareness of unity, love is all that is required. | Acceptance has been the means chosen, by us, to move you through the |
D:Day4.54 | is still anything that can hold you back. This is what the time of | acceptance was meant to show you! Nothing can hold you back except |
D:Day4.57 | of you, how many of you would have felt free to join me? Yet in your | acceptance is your perfection realized without judgment. In your |
D:Day6.16 | They will facilitate this by facilitating the | acceptance of life as it is. This is why this dialogue is occurring |
D:Day6.19 | a place for teaching and only calls this place elevated. Awareness, | acceptance, and discovery cannot occur in a place set apart from |
D:Day6.28 | another. Your desire is where it belongs—here—in the passionate | acceptance of our work together. And so the lack of desire you are |
D:Day6.32 | Does this work of | acceptance seem never ending? It is until it is replaced by |
D:Day6.32 | by reverence, just as learning was unending until it was replaced by | acceptance. The conditions, however, of this time of acceptance are |
D:Day6.32 | was replaced by acceptance. The conditions, however, of this time of | acceptance are not the conditions of the time of learning, and so you |
D:Day6.33 | Let us speak now of the conditions of the time of | acceptance, for these will cheer you. |
D:Day7.1 | What does the idea of only now coming to | acceptance imply but that you were previously unaccepting? And what |
D:Day7.3 | Acceptance of your Self is the precondition for the time of | |
D:Day7.3 | Acceptance of your Self is the precondition for the time of | acceptance. You are no longer denying your Self. You are no longer |
D:Day7.4 | Life is now supported. Support is thus a condition of the time of | acceptance. |
D:Day7.5 | fear and be willing and vigilant in replacing it with a pattern of | acceptance. I say this because so many of you still do not feel |
D:Day7.6 | fear will have a major transformative effect on form in this time of | acceptance. Regeneration is a condition of the time of acceptance. |
D:Day7.6 | this time of acceptance. Regeneration is a condition of the time of | acceptance. |
D:Day7.7 | Another condition of the time of | acceptance that will be of great service to you now is that of the |
D:Day7.7 | by presence, by your ability to exist in the here and now in | acceptance and without fear. |
D:Day7.8 | in-between state. They exist along with the new you. They exist in | acceptance and union. They do not exist in learning and separation. |
D:Day7.9 | are conditions that affect the body. Yet it was only your mind’s | acceptance of the condition of fear that led the body to exhibit the |
D:Day7.9 | conditions of fear in the time of learning. Thus it is the mind’s | acceptance of love that will lead the body to exhibit the effects of |
D:Day7.9 | will lead the body to exhibit the effects of love in the time of | acceptance. |

D:Day7.20 | The condition of the time of | acceptance that will most clearly reveal to you your status in regard |

D:Day8.5 | accept it. You may, in fact, need a job that you do not like, but in | acceptance of the simple truth that you do not like your job, you |
D:Day8.5 | rather than the external circumstance. We are not, when talking of | acceptance, talking of externals, but of internals. We are not |

D:Day8.9 | blocked your own true feelings and true response. However, a simple | acceptance that you do not like the gossip taking place in a present |
D:Day8.10 | Not all situations will seem as easy as this example. | Acceptance does not require any specific action but it will lead to |

D:1.26 | Learning | accepts that there are those separate from you who know things that |
D:6.11 | may not rise. This is not a doomsday attitude, but an attitude that | accepts that scientific or natural law and the law of spirit are not |
D:8.9 | the wisdom of the heart with these dialogues. As the mind opens and | accepts the new, the art of thought will become your new means of |

C:P.38 | of imparting knowledge that you already have and once again have | access to as you join with your own real Self. Once this is |
C:22.12 | you might think of collectively as layers—and are allowed no other | access. These forces must then be directed. Often great effort is |
T1:1.9 | you The Accomplished. As The Accomplished, you now are able to | access universal mind. |
T1:2.4 | Thus we have sought to uncover your Source, to provide you | access to your heart, from which all responses flow. As your heart is |
T2:10.3 | you and yet you are often forced to accept an inability to have | access to this information. It is forced from your awareness by |
T2:10.5 | sought, so too do you need to become knowledgeable in order to | access all that is available to you. |
T2:10.8 | call it forth lies the truth that you and all other beings know. The | access to what seems to lie beyond your ability lies in the Christ in |
T3:15.12 | How then, do you | access and live within this new reality, this new beginning? Through |
D:2.10 | to work is the illusion that will give way as you deny yourself | access to the old so that the new can come. |
D:8.5 | To accept this is to accept that you have | access to a “given” Self, to something neither earned nor worked hard |
D:12.13 | idea of entry, and the idea that what comes of unity does not need | access through your body’s eyes or ears or any of what you consider |
D:12.13 | that this is not so strange and unusual as it may sound, that this | access and entryway already exists within you, and that you have |
D:14.14 | state of unity. It is discovered by means of your awareness of your | access to the state of unity, as well as by what you discover there, |
D:15.16 | that your thinking mind will no longer be necessary as your | access to unity, or Christ-consciousness, is maintained and |
D:16.13 | This time of becoming is the time in between your awareness of and | access to Christ-consciousness or unity, and your sustainability of |
D:Day3.40 | available to you. You may not have given great consideration to the | access through which that availability arose, but since for most of |
D:Day3.40 | would be more true to think of this joining as creating a portal of | access, a new source of entry. But these points do not advance our |
D:Day4.8 | was designed to be. Learning was given as a natural means of | access to all that was available to you, but not through effort any |
D:Day4.12 | The second new temptation is | access. |
D:Day4.13 | no more comforting than consoling words if you do not feel you have | access to this place. It is like being told that all of the treasure |
D:Day4.14 | Access, then, is the key to the treasure. | |
D:Day4.15 | We have spoken at some length about | access that seems to come through the mind. We have spoken of |
D:Day4.24 | after the passing of the first of my disciples, was that they had | access to this treasure. They still knew that it existed, but since |
D:Day4.24 | They still knew that it existed, but since they knew not how to | access it, they called it the Kingdom of Heaven and longed for access |
D:Day4.24 | to access it, they called it the Kingdom of Heaven and longed for | access to it after death. |
D:Day4.26 | Union is both the treasure and the key to the treasure. Union is both | access and the place to which you desire access. As all that exists |
D:Day4.26 | the treasure. Union is both access and the place to which you desire | access. As all that exists in truth, union is means and end. |
D:Day4.27 | in unity rather than in separation—is thus the first step to the | access that you seek. Without knowing this, without knowing the truth |
D:Day4.27 | This was what learning was for. And learning is not the way to the | access that you seek. As all that exists in truth, the truth of who |
D:Day4.28 | Within you is the | access that you seek, just as within you is the Kingdom of Heaven. |
D:Day4.29 | The | access that you seek is not a tool that can be purchased through your |
D:Day4.29 | through your right-actions or even your longing and desire. For this | access is not a tool but a function of who you are. This access is, |
D:Day4.29 | For this access is not a tool but a function of who you are. This | access is, like breathing, something that is natural to you until you |
D:Day4.31 | then hold your hands over your eyes. You “cover over” the portal of | access to unity with a film of illusion. You hide the gate in mist. |
D:Day4.32 | Access simply exists within your natural state, much like breathing | |
D:Day4.34 | is not meditation, the focus that is not a tool? This is a focus on | access itself. |
D:Day4.35 | time on the mountain as a time of getting in touch with your own | access to God, your own access to heaven. You might think that if you |
D:Day4.35 | as a time of getting in touch with your own access to God, your own | access to heaven. You might think that if you stretch your idea of |
D:Day4.35 | beyond where it is comfortable going, that there you will find this | access, this portal to all that lies beyond time and space, to all |
D:Day4.36 | that its fulfillment lies already accomplished within, in the | access that lies within. |
D:Day4.37 | of taking you. It is a desire for true discovery, a desire to | access the previously unknown. |
D:Day4.38 | be totally replaced by love. If you fear to go where the portal of | access will take you, you will not go. Thus your desire needs to be |
D:Day4.40 | the towns and cities below? Or to turn and look up to the portal of | access to unity? Do you turn and look back at form and matter? Or do |
D:Day4.43 | into the elevated Self of form? Do you want to know this place of | access and carry it within you, or do you only wish the opportunity |
D:Day4.44 | all, accept it all—for you cannot have of this in parts. Once full | access has been revealed, what is yours is everything. But you will |
D:Day4.48 | Your desire and your | access are one and the same. If you desire this transformation |
D:Day4.49 | of until you have made your choice and have full realization of your | access to unity. You will be able, of course, to continue on without |
D:Day4.53 | As we move into full | access and awareness of unity, love is all that is required. |
D:Day5.1 | A point of | access will no longer be needed once full entry is attained, just as |
D:Day5.1 | though it will not be permanently needed, however, this point of | access will remain crucial as long as you maintain rather than |
D:Day5.1 | you maintain rather than sustain the state of unity. This point of | access will thus now be discussed, both as an initial entry point and |
D:Day5.2 | For each of you this | access point will in truth be the same, but perhaps quite different |
D:Day5.4 | is not a tool but a function of your natural Self, is a focus on | access. Thus we begin with what feels natural to you. We give access |
D:Day5.4 | on access. Thus we begin with what feels natural to you. We give | access a focal point in the realm of form. |
D:Day5.5 | This focal point must be of your own choosing. Your point of | access may be your head, or a place just above or to the right or |
D:Day5.5 | what feels most natural to you as a focal point for your focus on | access. |
D:Day5.6 | This is important to remember now as you begin to work with your | access to unity. |
D:Day5.8 | Thus, | access too is the same. It exists. It is there for you. It is given. |
D:Day5.9 | part of your body, it will be helpful to have identified this chosen | access point for unity even while remembering it is not of the body |
D:Day5.12 | Access to unity will seem, at first, a quite individual | |
D:Day5.13 | and receiving as one within your own heart. You might think of | access in the same way—as enabling you to realize that you “have” |
D:Day5.16 | A “healer” for instance, might, thus, feel her | access point as being the hands and express what is gained through |
D:Day5.18 | that while you want to know the specifics of how this thing called | access to unity will work, you are also impatient with specifics. You |
D:Day5.21 | this frame of mind, we can return more specifically to our focus on | access. Wherever your chosen point of access lies, imagine now the |
D:Day5.21 | specifically to our focus on access. Wherever your chosen point of | access lies, imagine now the needle that was discussed as passing |
D:Day5.21 | and imagine the point of intersection connecting with your chosen | access point. Imagine this now, not as a needle but as the wisdom you |
D:Day5.22 | effort remains, and while it remains, you will not realize full | access to what you are given. We are speaking here of letting your |
D:Day5.23 | spiritual guides. They have understood that what they have gained | access to cannot be taught. This has not meant that they were not |
D:Day5.25 | Remember this as well as you focus on your | access to unity. Focus does not mean thinking. Focus does not mean |
D:Day5.26 | a constant exchange. When you are fully aware of this is when full | access is attained. So we will continue our work now in releasing you |
D:Day6.1 | becoming the true Self—the time in between your awareness of and | access to Christ-consciousness, or unity, and your sustainability of |
D:Day6.4 | expression coming together. We have further spoken of your point of | access to unity as one of convergence, intersection, and |
D:Day6.14 | nothing but our relationship, focus on nothing but your point of | access, have a chance to really begin to invite abundance without |
D:Day6.21 | within the body and beyond the body. It is, in truth, the portal of | access we have spoken of, a connection with the state of union as |
D:Day7.14 | Obviously your relationship or | access to union is of supreme importance, since all else will come of |
D:Day7.14 | then that” situation, just because breathing sustains life? Your | access to union sustains real life, the life of the Self, and will |
D:Day7.15 | Access to unity is a phrase that will only be used in this in-between | |
D:Day7.15 | in unity and once this is fully realized you will no more need | access to unity than you need access to breathing. Unity will be your |
D:Day7.15 | fully realized you will no more need access to unity than you need | access to breathing. Unity will be your natural state. |
D:Day7.20 | to you your status in regard to maintaining or sustaining your | access to union will be that of the replacement of doubt with |
D:Day7.20 | make it so. Thus your ability to maintain and then sustain your | access to union and thus your certainty, goes hand-in-hand with your |

D:Day8.26 | and whatever peace you are feeling will not last. Whatever | access to unity you have experienced will not last because you will |
D:Day9.33 | time, begins to grow and to build your confidence. Unity and your | access to unity will be your certainty. Trust in your own abilities— |
D:Day10.6 | will lead to confidence in your Self. While you think it is your | access to unity that will be the more difficult to achieve and |
D:Day10.12 | This is why it has been said that the certainty that comes from | access to unity may be less difficult for you to become aware of and |
D:Day14.14 | sustaining the one voice within the many, the means of sharing your | access to unity, the manifestation, in form, of the healed and whole |

D:Day15.13 | only that you must appeal for guidance. The first step is to | access your own readiness. Are you able to be a clear pool? If not, |
D:Day17.5 | of their connection to Christ-consciousness. While no one has more | access to Christ-consciousness than another, some exhibited more |
D:Day21.4 | is oneness or union, a state you now realize that you share and have | access to. |
D:Day22.5 | take into consideration. This we have spoken of previously as your | access to union—as a place or state of consciousness through which |
D:Day29.5 | Your | access to union, so newly discovered and yet always existing within |
D:Day29.5 | within you, has been a part of the process that has allowed you | access to two levels of experience. It is your access to two levels |
D:Day29.5 | that has allowed you access to two levels of experience. It is your | access to two levels of experience—the experience of wholeness and |
D:Day29.5 | and the experience of separation. While you may have seen it as | access to information or sensory experiences of another kind, it is, |
D:Day29.5 | or sensory experiences of another kind, it is, in actuality, | access to a state of being. |
D:Day29.6 | seen it as a new means of interaction, it has been, in actuality, | access to a new state of being. |

T3:15.18 | of illusion with the truth is what the new thought system will | accomplish. Obviously, this replacement must be total. The means for |
T4:2.10 | new time. Full awareness of the new is what this Treatise seeks to | accomplish and so it is necessary to belabor these false ideas that |

T1:1.9 | place. This is what A Course of Love accomplished. This learning was | accomplished in you, making you The Accomplished. As The |
T1:1.9 | accomplished. This learning was accomplished in you, making you The | Accomplished. As The Accomplished, you now are able to access |
T1:1.9 | was accomplished in you, making you The Accomplished. As The | Accomplished, you now are able to access universal mind. |
T1:2.5 | Appealing to your heart was the means or cause of this freedom being | accomplished in you. What was spoken of within A Course of Love as |
T1:2.7 | subjects of a specific nature. Through this focus you believed you | accomplished much. You congratulated yourself on having the |
T1:6.9 | What happens when this oneness is | accomplished is that divine memories arise to replace perception. |
T1:7.1 | the world is seen as a world in which who you are can never be | accomplished. You have perceived this inability to be who you are in |
T1:7.1 | that you would strive to be, and the feeling of not being able to be | accomplished or complete will still be with you. Recall the many |
T1:8.2 | life, thus life is God’s Will. But with my resurrection, which was | accomplished for all, the meaning of life, the reality of life, |
T1:8.6 | the cause and effect of the union of the human and divine. This is | accomplished. This is in effect the way in which the man Jesus became |
T1:8.8 | The heart and mind joined in union | accomplished the reunion of the separated self with God. The |
T2:1.14 | that needs to occur. It is an elementary step and one easily | accomplished with but a bit of willingness. This change in thinking |
T2:3.2 | in the realm of unity where your being resides, this is already | accomplished. Your link between the realm of unity and the realm of |
T2:3.2 | of physicality is your heart. Your heart tells you of the already | accomplished and bids you to express it with your physicality, thus |
T2:3.5 | in expression. Without expression, the return to unity that has been | accomplished will not be realized. |
T2:3.7 | that the seeds of much of creation lie dormant within you, already | accomplished but awaiting expression in this realm of physicality. |
T2:4.15 | nor that you are in need of accomplishment rather than the already | accomplished. What this means is that you are still in need of |
T2:4.17 | it not as such. It is not a process of waiting until one thing is | accomplished for another to begin. What is happening now is happening |
T2:5.3 | be considered the highest form of call, the call from the already | accomplished to the already accomplished. Such a call signals an end |
T2:5.3 | form of call, the call from the already accomplished to the already | accomplished. Such a call signals an end to learning from the lessons |
T2:6.4 | Only you can be | accomplished and your accomplishment is already complete. |
T2:6.5 | What does this mean in regards to time? You might think of being | accomplished as all of your work being done. If there is no work to |
T2:6.5 | it is of which I speak. You believe that your treasures only become | accomplished abilities within time. You believe that your treasures |
T2:6.5 | say that it is what would “seem to” purposefully. If you are already | accomplished, this trick of your mind has not worked. And yet, if you |
T2:6.8 | your belief that change and growth are indicative of all that can be | accomplished rather than of what is already accomplished that needs |
T2:6.8 | of all that can be accomplished rather than of what is already | accomplished that needs adjustment now. As a tree exists fully |
T2:6.8 | accomplished that needs adjustment now. As a tree exists fully | accomplished within its seed and yet grows and changes, you exist |
T2:6.8 | within its seed and yet grows and changes, you exist fully | accomplished within the seed that is the Christ in you even while you |
T2:6.8 | but expressions of what already exist within the seed of the already | accomplished. |
T2:6.9 | The recognition that you are already | accomplished is a condition of your recognition of the state of |
T2:6.9 | pattern of ordinary time. Although this state exists as the already | accomplished, it is up to you to create it for yourself. You must |
T2:6.9 | for yourself only because you believe you replaced what was already | accomplished with what you made. This is what is happening as you |
T2:6.10 | is your Self as you were created and remain. The Christ is the | accomplished Self. |
T2:7.21 | to still take time, this belief builds on the belief of the already | accomplished through experience. As you experience giving and |
T2:8.6 | that is not available here. Here is the realm of the already | accomplished. This is home. Your expression of who you are may lead |
T2:9.8 | All that you are capable of having you already have as the already | accomplished. All that you would give will take nothing away from you. |
T2:12.2 | for miracles has been achieved through the learning you have | accomplished. Miracles cannot be used, and so your learning needed to |
T2:12.8 | to those whom you meet in relationship, you call but to the already | accomplished. |
T2:12.11 | a source of struggle. The ego would hang on to what is already | accomplished within you, never to let it express, through |
T3:1.12 | before you and am here to help you fulfill. I can do this because I | accomplished this, both in life and in all time and time beyond time, |
T3:1.12 | and in all time and time beyond time, making you, along with me, the | accomplished. As has already been said, the accomplished Self is the |
T3:1.12 | you, along with me, the accomplished. As has already been said, the | accomplished Self is the Christ. Your remembrance of the Christ-Self |
T3:4.8 | you fully realize this or not matters not. This A Course of Love has | accomplished. Now the choice is before you to do one of two things: |
T3:12.5 | of the truth of your identity. The goal of this Course has been | accomplished. However, while your consciousness remains time-bound, |
T3:13.4 | many of these lessons and need not repeat unlearning that has been | accomplished. The new learning that lies ahead of you now is simply |
T3:15.10 | The holy relationship has been | accomplished by the joining of the mind and heart in unity. The holy |
T3:15.13 | longer concerned with coursework as the work of this Course has been | accomplished in you. These Treatises are simply concerned with |
T3:15.15 | You are | accomplished. Giving and receiving are one in truth. There is no loss |
T3:16.7 | You are already | accomplished. |
T3:16.8 | By saying that you are not only | accomplished, but The Accomplished, it is being said that you are |
T3:16.8 | By saying that you are not only accomplished, but The | Accomplished, it is being said that you are already what you have |
T3:16.8 | in order to live by the truth, you must live in the world as The | Accomplished and cease struggling to be other than who you are in |
T3:16.8 | is not resistance at all but the idea that you are already | accomplished. Keeping this idea in the forefront of your mind and |
T3:20.14 | within the Peace of God that your wholeheartedness and our unity is | accomplished. |
T4:2.7 | does not mean that it does not exist within them. You are no more | accomplished than anyone has been or is or will be. The truth of who |
T4:2.7 | anyone has been or is or will be. The truth of who you are is as | accomplished as the truth of all of your brothers and sisters from |
T4:2.8 | of any human from any time with true vision, you would see the | accomplished Self there. There can be no judgment carried forward |
T4:2.11 | those who did not desire to fly in a plane when this feat was first | accomplished have since flown in planes. |
T4:10.1 | that you will become comfortable and more in your new role as the | accomplished. |
T4:10.9 | The learning you have | accomplished in regards to your Self could not help but have an |
T4:10.9 | Self. Means and end are one, cause and effect the same. Thus this | accomplished learning produced unity and relationship through unity |
T4:10.11 | you are and how to express who you are. No longer learning, or being | accomplished, is synonymous with knowing who you are and the ability |
D:1.5 | you cannot fail. You cannot fail to be prepared, for you are already | accomplished. What will it now take for your mind to accept this |
D:1.17 | be used as continuing lessons until you feel that learning is fully | accomplished. They can serve as reminders as you continue to become |
D:1.21 | that has been different from all learning you but thought you | accomplished as a separated self. You have achieved an incredible |
D:3.5 | return the world to its Self. The mending of the rift of duality was | accomplished in you when you joined mind and heart and returned to |
D:6.27 | know the changes that only occur in “time” although they are already | accomplished in unity. This is why we have spoken of miracles and of |
D:8.11 | self and into the circle of unity where all you desire is already | accomplished in the fullness and wholeness of the undivided Self. |
D:9.13 | form; it is that through which what already exists, what is already | accomplished, comes or passes through by means of the expression of |
D:10.3 | learning limits them. It is your joyous acceptance of the already | accomplished state of these givens that allows expression of what is |
D:11.7 | way to achieve this state is through acceptance that it is already | accomplished. And yet, as soon as your thoughts begin to accept this, |
D:11.11 | To believe that you are already | accomplished and not live from this belief is insane for reasons |
D:16.12 | complete, or possibly even feel as if learning has not quite been | accomplished in you. This is precisely why we now discuss this state |
D:Day1.23 | There is no story to project what comes next—no | accomplished story. There is only scripture unfulfilled, the promise |
D:Day1.24 | me because I am the part of you that can guide you beyond what I | accomplished to the accomplishment of creation, and beyond creation |
D:Day4.36 | limits, all the while realizing that its fulfillment lies already | accomplished within, in the access that lies within. |
D:Day6.26 | your brothers and sisters. If you felt our goal was unlikely to be | accomplished, or that it would elevate only a few and leave all |
D:Day9.23 | You are the “same” or “as” | accomplished as every enlightened one who has ever existed. Without |
D:Day14.1 | possible. Everything that is, is with us, which is why we are the | accomplished as well as the void, the healed as well as the sick, the |
D:Day18.6 | of mind and heart provided reunion of the human and divine and thus | accomplished the resurrection of the eternal in form. Your virgin |
D:Day18.9 | separation never actually occurred and that you have always been the | accomplished. If this had not been true, the cause of life would not |
D:Day27.13 | That you are who you are and that you have always been the | accomplished is a constant and an aspect of wholeness. The |
D:Day29.4 | complicated than ending the rift between mind and heart. You have | accomplished that and you can accomplish this—in your reality. As |
D:Day35.9 | Ideas are neither learned nor | accomplished. They simply are. They thus take no time to learn and |
D:Day39.41 | time of being in union and relationship. The Christ in you is the | accomplished. The Christ in you is that which, upon this final |
E.18 | is the final quest in the quest for being because the quest has been | accomplished, fulfilled, completed. |
A.12 | accomplish. Only in this way do you come to realize you are already | accomplished. |
A.49 | It is what will usher in the new and change the world. It cannot be | accomplished without you—without your ability to stand in unity and |
A.49 | you—without your ability to stand in unity and relationship as The | Accomplished. |
A.50 | Beloved brothers and sisters, You are The | Accomplished. |
accomplished self (3) |
||
T2:6.10 | is your Self as you were created and remain. The Christ is the | accomplished Self. |
T3:1.12 | you, along with me, the accomplished. As has already been said, the | accomplished Self is the Christ. Your remembrance of the Christ-Self |
T4:2.8 | of any human from any time with true vision, you would see the | accomplished Self there. There can be no judgment carried forward |
accomplishing (2) |
||
T2:6.5 | for you to do, for what do you need time? Have you ever conceived of | accomplishing anything without taking into account the time that it |
D:Day29.3 | source of your power. Now this power is available to assist you in | accomplishing the final joining, the joining that will end duality |
accomplishment (65) |
||
C:P.17 | a new way, a way in which you become the accomplished, and in your | accomplishment bring the new into being? |
C:P.38 | Because you are complete. But if your joining with Christ is the | accomplishment and completion of all lessons, who is he who provides |
C:1.9 | to find your way on your own so that you can take pride in your | accomplishment, as if by following another’s map the sense of |
C:1.9 | your accomplishment, as if by following another’s map the sense of | accomplishment in your arrival would be diminished. This wanting to |
C:5.24 | You continue living life as a test, driving yourself to follow one | accomplishment with another, sure that the next one or the next will |
C:6.17 | they would achieve. The challenge now is in creation rather than | accomplishment. With peace, accomplishment is achieved in the only |
C:6.17 | challenge now is in creation rather than accomplishment. With peace, | accomplishment is achieved in the only place where it makes any sense |
C:6.17 | in the only place where it makes any sense to desire it. With your | accomplishment comes the freedom and the challenge of creation. |
C:24.4 | The time of tenderness is thus the final learning ground before | accomplishment is complete. The learning that occurs during the time |
C:26.2 | Many of you question the line between fate and | accomplishment. Are some chosen for greatness? Others for mediocrity? |
C:29.6 | for Himself, and for all His children. The return to unity was my | accomplishment, and all that is meant by what I have often repeated |
C:29.7 | with anything other than this goal. Your realization of this goal’s | accomplishment is your realization of your divinity, a state |
C:29.8 | a return to unity. From within the center, the core of unity, your | accomplishment goes out to the world, as mine once did. |
C:32.6 | embrace? This is the miracle to end all need of miracles, the only | accomplishment of the only Son of God. For what your heart has shared |
T1:3.20 | power, surely it is a power that is of God and needs not you for its | accomplishment. Better not to mess with such things. Even the thought |
T1:6.9 | arise to replace perception. This is miracle-mindedness. The | accomplishment of this state of being is the reason for which you are |
T1:8.8 | the separated self with God. The resurrection was evidence of this | accomplishment. It laid aside death’s claim and with it the claim of |
T2:1.4 | you are now is what this Course has led you to and evidence of your | accomplishment. You may view this as license to stay as you are and |
T2:3.7 | Learning and | accomplishment are not linear as you have perceived them to be. If we |
T2:4.15 | This does not mean you have not changed nor that you are in need of | accomplishment rather than the already accomplished. What this means |
T2:6.4 | Only you can be accomplished and your | accomplishment is already complete. |
T2:6.5 | onto an unknown future time is what would seem to keep you from | accomplishment. I say that it is what would “seem to” purposefully. |
T2:6.5 | trick of your mind has worked, you act as if you are being kept from | accomplishment by time, and this “seems” quite real to you. This |
T2:6.6 | Accomplishment is not an end point but a given. It is not an outcome | |
T2:7.20 | recognition of the state of unity. As with the recognition of your | accomplishment, the acceptance of the belief that giving and |
T3:15.6 | own criteria for success or failure and their own timing for the | accomplishment of the same. Some would see six months of change as |
T3:22.15 | of distrust. It was a tension that existed between desire and | accomplishment, the tension that told you that you might be able to |
T4:1.1 | It will not be about tools or tell you that some have the tools for | accomplishment and that others do not. It will continue the view from |
T4:5.2 | whole of the choir and the orchestra. So that you can realize your | accomplishment in union and relationship. So that you can join your |
T4:5.2 | accomplishment in union and relationship. So that you can join your | accomplishment with that of all others and become the body of Christ. |
T4:10.1 | you beyond the time of being a student to the realization of your | accomplishment. You were once comfortable being your own teacher. You |
T4:10.10 | The first | accomplishment of your learning about your Self was the return of |
T4:10.11 | love in form. No longer learning is the revelation that the time of | accomplishment is upon you and the expression of the Self of love in |
T4:12.24 | (which is individual), for individual gain, or for individual | accomplishment. |
D:5.16 | next?” If there is nothing to learn, if coursework is behind you and | accomplishment is complete, what then are you to do? You are to |
D:10.3 | how you express them in the world, is your unique and individual | accomplishment. Such it is. But when you also think that it is your |
D:10.4 | of this in any other way will leave you with no individual, personal | accomplishment, nothing to be proud of, nothing to call your own. You |
D:10.4 | own. You thus must begin to realize that the bringing forth of the | accomplishment that already exists in unity is your new work, the |
D:10.4 | Self of union, the work that can fill you with the true joy of true | accomplishment, because it is your real work—work with what is. |
D:10.5 | In this way, sharing in relationship becomes the goal and the | accomplishment of the elevated Self of form, the means through which |
D:14.1 | Discovery is more, of course, than the acceptance of your | accomplishment and these beginning steps into the real state of |
D:16.2 | once begun, the story of creation moves inevitably to join with the | accomplishment and wholeness that already exist in unity. Creation |
D:17.5 | arrived comes the “presence” of Self so long awaited, the joy of | accomplishment, the taste of victory. |
D:17.7 | and you marvel that this takes nothing from your feeling of | accomplishment. You want to share it with the whole world. From the |
D:17.12 | return you to your Self. This is the moment of realization of that | accomplishment. But your desire has not left you. Your desire is |
D:Day1.24 | the part of you that can guide you beyond what I accomplished to the | accomplishment of creation, and beyond creation to the story not yet |
D:Day4.57 | These things become not achievements, but the acknowledgments of the | accomplishment that has always existed within you and all of your |
D:Day5.12 | Access to unity will seem, at first, a quite individual | accomplishment, something one may have and another may not. While |
D:Day5.15 | seeking the same goal, the realization, or “making real” of your | accomplishment, and its expression, will not look the same way twice. |
D:Day5.17 | and expressing fully who you are. This is the miracle, the goal, the | accomplishment that is achieved through the reign of love, the |
D:Day5.22 | could only work hard to attain, and thereby claim as your individual | accomplishment. Obviously, union is not about this. While the ego is |
D:Day6.19 | will bring to your full realization and manifestation without the | accomplishment that already exists. |
D:Day6.23 | person is taught and shown the skills and activities needed for the | accomplishment of the tasks he or she is to perform. But often it is |
D:Day6.27 | to others, particularly those who, along with us, work toward its | accomplishment. In doing so you are not creating new special |
D:Day9.17 | to be something else? Just as “finding” brought “seeking” to an end, | accomplishment brings striving to an end. |
D:Day9.23 | Without realizing this, however, your unique expression of your | accomplishment will not be realized. |
D:Day19.1 | other words, you know not what to do. You perhaps see no “specific” | accomplishment in your future, but see instead a way of living as the |
D:Day19.1 | in your future, but see instead a way of living as the ultimate | accomplishment. You see living as who you are in the world as the |
D:Day19.1 | accomplishment. You see living as who you are in the world as the | accomplishment that is needed from you and yet at times you compare |
D:Day19.5 | The ultimate | accomplishment is living as who you are within the world. But in what |
D:Day24.5 | released. There is, in other words, a necessity for each step in the | accomplishment of wholeness, even while wholeness has always existed |
D:Day29.4 | this—in your reality. As you realize by now, all this talk of | accomplishment is merely about bringing forward what already exists |
D:Day35.7 | idea of sameness come to replace an idea of specialness, an idea of | accomplishment and union here and now come to replace all ideas of |
D:Day35.9 | simply are. They thus take no time to learn and require no steps to | accomplishment. They can be lived immediately. No intermediary is |
D:Day36.19 | of the truth of who you are and who you can be is essential to the | accomplishment of our mission—to the creation of a new heaven and a |

C:23.23 | is no quick route to this purging, as it is the most individual of | accomplishments. As you learned your beliefs, you must unlearn your |
accord (10) |
||
C:20.34 | what to do only because of fear, only because you have been out of | accord with the one heartbeat. The world, the universe, is your |
C:20.37 | identity, and it is about knowing that as you do so you are in | accord and enjoying the full cooperation of the entire universe. |
T1:4.17 | of meaning if it is helpful to you, saves you time, or seems in | accord with your own views. Others of you feel it necessary to |
T3:3.2 | with the ego’s desires or in opposition to them. Whether they be in | accord or in opposition, their source has still been the ego. These |
T3:11.8 | be restated as you are love, you live in peace, you live by or in | accord with the truth. |
D:16.11 | receiving are one in truth. All of the principles of creation are in | accord with this truth, and thus these truths occur in unison or in |
D:17.7 | this desire too has caused your arms to raise as if of their own | accord. You feel the power of giving and receiving as one, for this |
D:Day3.49 | You take this step without realizing that you are still acting in | accord with ideas of it being an “if this, then that” world. You try |
D:Day16.7 | reflect who you are, and that by acting on them, you will act in | accord with who you are and thus in accord with the universe. The |
D:Day16.7 | acting on them, you will act in accord with who you are and thus in | accord with the universe. The reintegration is the process through |
accordance (4) |
||
C:10.1 | While the body seems to tell you what you feel and bid you act in | accordance with its feelings, how can this be so? The body by itself |
C:30.6 | life is forever. The known Self realizes this and begins to act in | accordance with this knowing. |
T3:3.2 | the ego faithfully. All of your traits have been chosen either in | accordance with the ego’s desires or in opposition to them. Whether |
T3:13.4 | The new learning that lies ahead of you now is simply learning in | accordance with the new thought system of the truth; accepting the |
according (8) |

C:I.2 | and not in those of old. The mind will then tell you how to feel | according to its rules and will resist all ways of feeling, all ways |
C:14.23 | giving you something to look forward to, a reward for a life lived | according to your own rules, a reward to be gained by some and not by |
C:22.17 | from everything else within your world. Everything has meaning only | according to what it means to you and not as what it is. |
T3:11.9 | how to live within it is best addressed by concentrating on living | according to the truth. |
T3:13.4 | as cause is all that is important now as you will create the new | according to what you believe to be the truth and translate into |

D:6.15 | certainty based on the fear that caused you to order the world | according to a set of facts and rules. |

T2:5.5 | or behaviors. You may also be called upon to call others to | account for their attitudes or behaviors. |
T2:6.5 | you ever conceived of accomplishing anything without taking into | account the time that it will take? Relate this question to our |
D:6.10 | What these laws of science do not take into | account are the laws of God. Although science is beginning to see |
D:13.4 | look at your Bible for many stories such as these, and you will read | account after account of people who did not know how to live with |
D:13.4 | for many stories such as these, and you will read account after | account of people who did not know how to live with what they came to |
D:Day3.31 | day, or spend it only with trepidation and an eye upon the bank | account? Even those of you who would feel prepared to let it bring |
accounts (3) |
||
D:Day2.21 | You have | accounts of my actions that begin with the appearance of my form in |
D:Day2.21 | the world, but that mainly occur during my time of maturity. These | accounts do not stress the time of childhood as it is a time commonly |
D:Day2.21 | childhood as it is a time commonly held to be one of innocence. The | accounts of my maturity generally begin with the recognition of who I |
accumulated (2) |
||
C:23.29 | Only your own life experiences have led to the learning you have | accumulated and translated into beliefs. Only your own life |

T3:2.9 | is no right or wrong, no good or bad in regards to the self but only | accurate or inaccurate representations of the truth. Inaccurate |
T4:4.10 | of an opposite to what you are not and have never been is not the | accurate word. I do not speak of bodies living forever instead of |
D:9.5 | were spoken of as if they were synonymous with thought, this was an | accurate and truthful way of expressing what was true for you as a |
D:11.3 | the way I think that they are incomparable. But thinking is not an | accurate description of what I do, or of what occurs in unity. I am |
D:12.14 | that you know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, are true or right or | accurate. They may be simple thoughts about a situation in which you |
D:Day2.22 | that this awareness existed at my birth, and this too would be | accurate, since all births are meant to be eagerly looked forward to |
D:Day20.4 | told much here that you did not previously know. This isn’t quite | accurate however. What has happened here is that words have been put |
D:Day32.19 | from His being? This is the easiest way to say this, if not quite | accurate. Being is power. But being, like oneness, cannot know itself |
accurately (3) |

C:10.25 | this experiment, you will realize anew that your thoughts more | accurately define who you are than your body does. Whether they |
T1:7.2 | is due to the belief that spirit has chosen a form, and more | accurately put a “lesser” form in which to exist, and that that |

T3:2.3 | the purpose you assumed rather than the purpose you started out to | achieve—that of a new way of expression in a form that would expand |
T3:22.15 | accomplishment, the tension that told you that you might be able to | achieve what you desire but that you also might not. Realize that |
T4:1.3 | if some will be left out and as if you are being told that you can | achieve what many others have tried and failed to achieve. These are |
T4:1.3 | told that you can achieve what many others have tried and failed to | achieve. These are the types of ideas that will cause discomfort to |
T4:1.13 | that something different is possible; that you might just be able to | achieve what others have not; that this time might just be different |
T4:1.27 | pass on what they learned through indirect means. Fewer were able to | achieve a state of consciousness in which direct communication was |
T4:2.11 | and a third. That attention and respect is given to those who first | achieve anything of merit is but a way of calling all others to know |
T4:2.11 | of merit is but a way of calling all others to know what they can | achieve. One may desire to best a sporting record and another to |
T4:2.12 | passes. Despite the necessity for a confidence that has led them to | achieve their desired end, most who so achieve and become the first |
T4:2.12 | that has led them to achieve their desired end, most who so | achieve and become the first to set records, discover, or invent the |
T4:12.25 | as a loss, that you have already achieved all that was possible to | achieve as an individual. The purpose of individual learning was the |

D:2.11 | and would be repeated until such a time as the pattern failed to | achieve the successful grade or outcome in another instance. Thus |
D:3.7 | through might and struggle. This is what is meant by surrender. We | achieve victory now through surrender, an active and total acceptance |
D:3.13 | Helping you to | achieve full awareness of who you are is different than helping you |
D:3.13 | As was said before, you know what you need to know. What we seek to | achieve through this dialogue is acceptance and awareness of what you |
D:8.2 | in doing so may have found a continued ability to learn faster or | achieve more in this area than those who are not seen as having a |
D:11.7 | The way to | achieve this state is through acceptance that it is already |
D:Day1.3 | you will not fully accept who you are. Without your willingness to | achieve this acceptance, you will not receive the secret of |
D:Day4.54 | way opens for you to fully know the Self of unity. You are about to | achieve your first glimpse of wholeness, of oneness with God. To know |
D:Day9.13 | as you may have believed that if you worked hard enough you would | achieve a position of status within your profession or material |
D:Day9.13 | hard enough you can maybe, someday, if you are blessed or lucky, | achieve this ideal image. |
D:Day9.32 | what life would be for without this type of freedom to strive, to | achieve, to accomplish, to work toward and realize goals. This is the |

C:5.23 | done wrong, you wonder? Why are you not satisfied with all you have | achieved? |
C:5.24 | is proven time and time again to not be what you want once you have | achieved it. Yet you think when this occurs that you have simply |
C:6.17 | creation rather than accomplishment. With peace, accomplishment is | achieved in the only place where it makes any sense to desire it. |
C:9.37 | in you is found in another and together a sense of wholeness is | achieved. |
C:9.38 | this is but a distortion of creation. You remember that wholeness is | achieved through union, but not how to accomplish it. You have |
C:9.38 | You believe that by putting various parts together a whole can be | achieved. You speak of balance, and try to find something for one |
C:9.41 | when you can run the race no more, you bow down to those who have | achieved glory; they become your idols and you become their subjects, |
C:11.4 | of both success and failure are detrimental here. To feel you have | achieved success in learning what love is all about is as ridiculous |
C:14.2 | the goal you ask creation to bow down to, a goal that never can be | achieved any more than can your separation from what you think is |
C:16.21 | The rejection of powerlessness is but a step toward your identity | achieved through the awakening of love of Self. |
C:19.10 | self cannot relearn unity except through union. Here, union is | achieved in relationship. To see your brothers and sisters as those |
C:19.12 | that produces the state of wholeheartedness. This state was not | achieved at all times by all those who believed in me—and |
C:19.15 | for you to accept that what you most need to know cannot be | achieved through the same methods you have used in order to know |
C:21.8 | that exists constantly and in every instance until unity is | achieved. Until unity is achieved you do not understand that you give |
C:21.8 | and in every instance until unity is achieved. Until unity is | achieved you do not understand that you give meaning to all things, |
C:23.29 | the lessons? What is the curriculum? How will you know when you have | achieved a learning objective? Yet how can you become a master of |
C:27.20 | How will you know when you have | achieved the state of grace in which you were created, and that you |
C:30.5 | consciousness, though you will not know it when it is at first | achieved. For universal consciousness is knowing Self, while you |
T1:3.11 | a miracle and it did not come to be, wouldn’t it negate all you have | achieved thus far and send you back to a state of disbelief? Better |
T1:9.1 | or miracle-readiness. This is wholeheartedness and is | achieved through mindfulness. |
T1:9.12 | attributes within you causes a merging of both and a wholeness to be | achieved, so too does a wholeness then come about with conception and |
T2:9.12 | cease to occur. The desire to maintain a state you believe you have | achieved and have labeled a state in which your needs are met creates |
T2:10.13 | must proceed all the rest. You are in a state of unity when you have | achieved wholeheartedness. You are in a state in which you are able |
T2:12.2 | service provided through love. Your readiness for miracles has been | achieved through the learning you have accomplished. Miracles cannot |

T4:2.12 | Similarly, those who have | achieved “first place” do so realizing that the elevated “place” they |
T4:12.25 | those of you who would mourn this as a loss, that you have already | achieved all that was possible to achieve as an individual. The |

D:1.21 | you but thought you accomplished as a separated self. You have | achieved an incredible feat by allowing and accepting the state of |
D:2.4 | and cooperation to enable the return to unity. This pattern has | achieved its desired end and so is no longer needed nor appropriate. |
D:3.13 | is acceptance and awareness of what you know. Acceptance is easily | achieved through willingness. Full awareness in form of what has |
D:8.2 | In all of your life, you can think of no ability you have not | achieved through learning. And yet most of you have “discovered” |
D:8.2 | and have given up “working hard” to be the best. Others who have | achieved the highest possible acclaim for their talents find this |
D:8.2 | acclaim for their talents find this acclaim unfulfilling once it is | achieved. |
D:11.6 | a question. Do you think desire will still be with you when you have | achieved what you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a |
D:12.12 | What I am striving to help you see, once again, is that union isn’t | achieved with a flash of light from above, but that it quietly |
D:13.6 | in awareness of the relationship of unity. But until this state is | achieved, you will move in and out of states of awareness of the |
D:17.14 | now. Do you think desire will still be with you when you have | achieved what you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a |
D:Day4.60 | Our forward movement must be | achieved, however. But one is needed to begin this movement. |
D:Day5.17 | you are. This is the miracle, the goal, the accomplishment that is | achieved through the reign of love, the maintenance and finally the |
D:Day5.19 | movement in order to understand the way in which that movement is | achieved, you will almost surely once again have doubts. Doubts are |
D:Day14.1 | Self, the One Self, and the many, that full acceptance is actually | achieved and complete transformation begun. |
D:Day15.17 | Many resist this stage of development because they feel they have | achieved inner knowing. They may still consider themselves to be |
D:Day15.17 | but feel, in a certain sense, that it is unnecessary. They have | achieved a goal consistent with their concept of inner knowing and |
D:Day30.4 | Wholeness cannot be | achieved without joining, thus the commonly known injunction of |
D:Day31.7 | denominator. By knowing the One in the many, experience can be | achieved within wholeness. |

D:Day35.6 | upon the mountain top experience and the view of wholeness we have | achieved here. You will carry it within you, and when you feel not |

C:8.21 | On other days you will feel quite superior, the ultimate | achievement of the world and all its years of evolution. There are |
C:9.37 | memory’s return. A love relationship, while seen as the ultimate | achievement in terms of the closeness you can acquire with a brother |
C:9.41 | the race you will know it not. Competition that leads to individual | achievement has become the idol you would glorify, and you need not |
C:14.5 | make sense? What creator would create a world in which the highest | achievement of the life upon it would be to leave it in order to gain |
C:14.23 | a reward to be gained by some and not by others, a pinnacle of | achievement that will prove your rightness and your success after you |
T1:7.1 | with you. Recall the many times you felt certain that a particular | achievement would complete you and take away your feelings of lack. |
T4:12.25 | of the final stages of learning, has achieved the ultimate | achievement possible! Let yourself be grateful for the learning you |
D:17.6 | than ever before. The influx of attainment has begun. The height of | achievement has been reached. Your glory is realized. But the desire, |
D:17.7 | You are not alone in your glory or | achievement and you marvel that this takes nothing from your feeling |
D:17.9 | is not a desire to hold on to what you have. That this moment of | achievement and glory is a gift of this moment, a gift of presence. |
D:17.9 | it is in this moment. It is not a trophy for your wall. It is not an | achievement you would hope to best. It simply is what it is: A moment |
D:Day9.11 | mind and has no substance. To work toward, or to have as a goal, the | achievement of an ideal image is to have created a false god. |

C:4.16 | ounce of love that is given returned in kind. This is a balancing | act you play with God’s most holy gift, resenting giving love that |
C:10.1 | healing. While the body seems to tell you what you feel and bid you | act in accordance with its feelings, how can this be so? The body by |
C:15.9 | responsibility you have undertaken, and a refusal to make special an | act of disloyalty. What’s more, when all is said and done, you are |
C:15.9 | into question humanity’s right to specialness seems the ultimate | act of disloyalty to your own kind. To even think that you could |

T1:1.5 | be perfectly able to identify illusion and truth. This is a simple | act of recognizing meaning. All that you believe you learned from |
T1:1.6 | in your heart, your reunited mind and heart will now be called to | act in unison. That A Course of Love instructed you little in the |
T1:1.7 | mind were what you were asked to leave behind as this | act of leaving behind was the only means by which you could allow |
T1:2.12 | in order to call your wholehearted attention to the continual | act of creation that is the relationship between Creator and Created. |
T1:3.6 | what you are now asked to call upon. For calling upon miracles is an | act of faith. You think the quest for miracles is a quest for proof |

T1:6.2 | to take place? It will begin by learning the art of thought as the | act of prayer. We have spoken already of memory here, and have |
T1:6.2 | the truth to exist as it is. Prayer does this because it is the | act of consciously choosing union. Choosing union moves you into the |
T1:6.3 | Thus prayer must be redefined as the | act of consciously choosing union. With this definition, you can see |
T1:6.3 | and responding. This is the aspect of prayer that makes of it an | act of creation. |
T1:8.11 | virgin birth was thus a necessary step in the reclaiming of the real | act of creation, the bringing forth of the new through union with the |
T1:9.4 | ways. One of the few exceptions to this outward creation is the | act of giving birth. But birth, like all outward manifestations, but |
T1:9.8 | But what then of the necessary | act of giving and receiving? In this birth of the Self, who is the |

T2:3.1 | Your life is already an | act of creation. It was created. All of it. It exists, fully realized |
T2:4.2 | but as has been said many times, a creator, and as such a continuing | act of creation. This does not mean that creation is acted out upon |
T2:4.3 | in order to reveal to you who you truly are. While you continue to | act within the world as who you think you are rather than as who you |
T2:4.4 | is attempting to show you how to live as who you are, how to | act within the world as the new Self you have identified. Just like |
T2:4.6 | and a wholehearted approach that allows the body, mind and heart to | act in unison. This wholehearted approach is the condition from which |
T2:4.15 | Anything continuous and ongoing is part of creation. Thus the very | act of undoing old patterns is an act of creation. As the old is |
T2:4.15 | is part of creation. Thus the very act of undoing old patterns is an | act of creation. As the old is undone, a vacuum is not created. The |
T2:5.3 | The certainty of an announcement can alert you that it is time to | act. This might be considered the highest form of call, the call from |
T2:6.5 | And yet, if you believe that this trick of your mind has worked, you | act as if you are being kept from accomplishment by time, and this |
T2:8.4 | These are all calls to know your Self and to | act on this knowing. These are calls to truth and but take the form |

T3:9.6 | the walls of the house of illusion are now called to begin the | act of revealing and creating anew the life of heaven on earth. |
T3:10.4 | can now do so with blame. All you need do is catch yourself in the | act of placing blame and say to yourself, “I was placing blame again |
T3:10.5 | mind of blame will leave an empty space you will long to fill. This | act of consciously choosing not to place blame will short-circuit the |
T3:13.10 | meant to test these words with foolish acts. To do so would be to | act as if this were magic rather than the truth. To act as if this is |
T3:13.10 | so would be to act as if this were magic rather than the truth. To | act as if this is the truth is what you are called to do. You may |
T3:13.10 | to reflect the fact that you have accepted this new idea. Choose an | act that will cause you no fear to begin with. For instance, you |
T3:13.10 | and no dire consequences will befall me from this action.” Another | act might be as simple as allowing yourself to freely spend a small |
T3:14.11 | what will continue to be evidenced in your world. This is the only | act you can choose worthy of being called selfishness. Be self “less” |
T3:14.11 | to usher in a world of peace, would you not think this a selfish | act? |
T3:15.5 | When attempting to give oneself or another a new beginning, you often | act “as if” you believe a new beginning is possible, even while |

T3:20.9 | While you need not | act in ways inconsistent with compassion or even verbalize your new |
T3:21.17 | you exist in unity, all the things we have enumerated above will | act to challenge these beliefs unless you are able to see them in a |

T3:22.13 | Observation, both of yourself and of what you desire, is an | act that takes place in the here and now that is and brings what is |

T2:4.19 | While this | adjustment of your thinking may not seem to be the miracle that it |
T2:6.8 | accomplished rather than of what is already accomplished that needs | adjustment now. As a tree exists fully accomplished within its seed |

C:20.17 | does not exist apart from God. The heartbeat of the world is thus | alive and part of you. This heart connection is what we seek to |
C:27.2 | all glory. There is no being apart from being. There is no being | alive and being dead, being human or being divine. There is only |

T3:8.4 | the angst you feel towards God and brothers and sisters both | alive and dead. |
T4:3.14 | Either way is but your choice. Your attachment to life has kept you | alive in form. Your attachment to death has kept your form subject to |
T4:5.4 | of Creation, the Source that is known as God. Since you are clearly | alive, this Energy exists within you as it exists in all else that |
T4:6.1 | all-encompassing consciousness. Your state of consciousness, be you | alive or dead, asleep or awake, literally or figuratively, is a part |
D:7.8 | all that lives is from the same Source, and there is nothing more | alive than mind and heart combined in the spirit of wholeheartedness. |
D:15.11 | temporal life. There are no degrees of life. One form is not more | alive than another. All that lives contains the breath or wind of |
D:16.9 | exist in form you are being because you are being something. You are | alive. You have form. You think and feel. You have even been told |
D:Day9.27 | and truth. You express the beauty and truth of who you are by being | alive. It has only been your inability to accept this that has caused |
D:Day15.8 | the body and then cease to be. It is not about life and making form | alive but about spirit and informing spirit. It is about making |

T1:5.5 | God, fear of Life, fear of Creation, fear of Self. For there is only | all and nothing. |
T1:5.7 | be seen as the illusion of an in-between you have created between | all and nothing. This in-between place is your comfort zone and, |
D:Day34.2 | in much the same way all includes nothing. Without relationship, | all and nothing are the same. In relationship, the difference between |
D:Day34.2 | and nothing are the same. In relationship, the difference between | all and nothing is everything. So too is it with creation and |
D:Day36.10 | is all the difference in the world. It is the difference between | all and nothing in relationship to one another. Recall the example |
D:Day36.10 | Recall the example used earlier. There is no difference between | all and nothing without relationship. In relationship, the difference |
D:Day36.10 | or as if you were everything and God was nothing. But just as with | all and nothing, there was no difference between your being and God’s |
D:Day39.38 | is time and eternity. Love and hate. Good and evil. In other words, | All and Nothing. It is the tension of individuation, a tension that |
D:Day40.14 | and me is that I am being God and also love, being. This is why I am | all and nothing, the attribute-laden God and the attributeless love. |
All of All (13) |
||
C:20.2 | all right. Realize that this is the whole world, the universe, the | all of all in whose embrace you literally exist. Feel the gentleness |
T2:4.1 | aspect of this world alone. Creation is an aspect of the whole, the | all of all, the alpha and the omega, eternity and infinity. It is not |
D:3.23 | of the new. This is what creation is! The entire universe, the | All of All, giving and receiving as one. This is our power. And our |
D:7.27 | the circle of unity. In truth, this circle is everything, the | All of All, the universe, God. But just as the Earth can be seen as |
D:14.8 | open for revelation but for cooperation. Cooperation comes from the | All of All being in harmony and relationship. When this harmony and |
D:16.7 | Love is spirit, is God, is creation. Love is a description of the | All of All because it is whole and rests in eternal completion and |
D:Day3.59 | compassionate and loving benevolence of the universe, of God, of the | All of All, and still accept the reality of lack. You cannot accept |
D:Day16.15 | the paradise of creation. This was the Garden of Eden, the Self, the | All of All. Unwanted feelings that you attempted to expel from the |
D:Day17.2 | and masculine, the “identity” of God, or in other words, the | All of All given an identity. God holds you within Himself. Christ is |
D:Day17.3 | true Self is being in union, undivided and inseparable from God, the | All of All. God is only the all-knowing because God is in everything |
D:Day32.15 | would be singular and alone. Yet God has been referred to as the | All of All. How could God be the All of All and not also be man? How |
D:Day32.15 | Yet God has been referred to as the All of All. How could God be the | All of All and not also be man? How can God be all that is and at the |
D:Day35.21 | in unity and relationship is creation within the embrace of the | All of All. How can you choose when what you create is everything? |
All of Everything (16) |
||
T1:5.6 | A part of you is aware of this and as fearful of the | all of everything as of the void of nothing. You feel as if you are |
T4:5.6 | God can thus be seen as the | All of everything and life, or the Body of Christ, as all that makes |
T4:5.6 | Christ, as all that makes up the seemingly individual parts of the | All of everything. Christ-consciousness is your awareness of this. |
D:6.27 | The self of form, as form, could never truly experience the | All of Everything that is the natural state of the formless. But the |
D:6.27 | state, the state of Christ-consciousness, sharing in unity, the | All of Everything. So these two states, the state of form and the |
D:7.27 | home, you will not always be aware of this circle of the Self as the | All of Everything, and it will, in fact, be helpful as we begin, to |
D:7.29 | of shared consciousness, rather than with consciousness of the | All of Everything. This territory we will call the territory of your |
D:7.29 | may be, it will still at times give way to awareness of the | All of Everything. |
D:12.19 | you, as I am not other than you. Union includes you, just as the | All of Everything, the whole of wholeness, the one of oneness, |
D:Day11.6 | in relationship is All because it is all that is knowable. The | All of Everything cannot be known any more than can nothingness. The |
D:Day11.6 | All of Everything cannot be known any more than can nothingness. The | All of Everything is unknowable. Thus you are the knowable of God. |
D:Day11.6 | of All with Its Self. Separation is as unknowable as the | All of Everything. To be separate in truth would be to not exist. To |
D:Day11.6 | Everything. To be separate in truth would be to not exist. To be the | All of Everything would be to not know existence. Only what exists in |
D:Day26.7 | of creation. It is the culmination of all that has come before, the | All of Everything realized in a single heartbeat, a single instant of |
D:Day39.14 | is like the big bang, the explosion of creation. It is all at once. | All of Everything. Yet in relationship. |
D:Day39.46 | with rest. But you will still know all of these. You will know the | All of Everything and the emptiness of nothing and our relationship |

T1:10.3 | greatest of these experiences, the most profound sorrow or the most | all-encompassing joy, you will feel inhuman. You will think that this |
T2:5.3 | a call, an announcement of your readiness for the new. This is the | all-encompassing call and is not about specifics. Because it is not |

T2:12.12 | This cultivation then, of the | all-encompassing holy relationship that exists within you and without |
T3:11.2 | in the House of Truth, “I am” has become something larger, an | all-encompassing recognition of the unity of all things with which |
T4:6.1 | Now I ask you to consider the part you play in the creation of this | all-encompassing consciousness. Your state of consciousness, be you |

C:12.8 | seems to ask for change at every level, and yet from one change | alone will all the others follow—and through no effort on your part |

C:12.14 | the separation, and in this one are all the rest joined. For what | alone in all creation could be affected by your free will but your |
C:14.12 | great joy seemed to come at the cost of pain and to leave you more | alone and comfortless than before. How could this be said of love? |
C:14.16 | to perish something quite unique would be lost to the world? You are | alone and irreplaceable: one of a kind. Within you lie all that you |
C:14.21 | of all is that of loss of love. You who have given everything to be | alone and separate fear most of all that which you have given |
C:14.21 | of your separate state? What is loss of love but being left | alone? |
C:15.12 | it also is not a difficult choice, nor one that is in truth yours | alone to make. This choice cannot be made without your brother and is |
C:16.6 | you have succeeded in separating from Him, and based on this choice | alone is how you see determined. |

T1:1.8 | that left you with an erroneous impression that relying on feeling | alone would complete your learning would in actuality leave your |
T1:2.17 | the sunset by being a shared experience. It is there not for you | alone, but in listening to its call for a response, it becomes a gift |
T1:8.12 | upon now as the myth to end all myths for in this example life | alone is the key to the riddle provided. |
T2:4.1 | Creation is not an aspect of this world | alone. Creation is an aspect of the whole, the all of all, the alpha |
T2:4.19 | see that each new response is the answer to a call that your heart | alone can hear. As I have said, your heart has now become your eyes |
T2:10.16 | specific outcomes. While many love to learn for the sake of learning | alone, still they would be loath to give up or let go the ability to |
T2:12.11 | ego could be here compared to a gardener who believes that the seed | alone is all that is important. As intently as this gardener might |
T2:13.1 | now you have seen that yourself does not need to stand separate and | alone in order to be fulfilled under the mantle of individuality. You |
T3:2.1 | who you think yourself to be. They are not expressions of the self | alone. They are not expressions of the self alone in terms you might |
T3:2.1 | expressions of the self alone. They are not expressions of the self | alone in terms you might consider autobiographical, and they are not |
T3:2.1 | consider autobiographical, and they are not expressions of the self | alone that you would consider the self in separation. They are rather |
T3:11.1 | who exist in the house of illusion are aware of the personal self | alone and believe the personal self to be who they are. Further, they |

T3:14.1 | memory from you, but to experience the new thought system as thought | alone will not bring about the changes you would so desire to have |
T3:19.2 | that is limited to the physical—no joy felt by the physical form | alone—the joy that comes of things physical can certainly still be |
T4:2.23 | of time, but still essentially seeing yourself moving through life | alone, with few sustaining connections save for special |
T4:3.6 | relationship is what has kept you forever unable to be separate and | alone, relationship is also what has kept you seemingly forever |
T4:3.6 | inherited idea that it was your nature to be separate and | alone and thus fearful, made relationships fearful as well. Trust |
T4:3.13 | realizing that what exists in form does not have to be separate and | alone; not realizing that what lives does not have to die. That the |
T4:5.9 | you are. But it is not guaranteed! It is your choice and your choice | alone that is the only guarantee. This is the meaning of free will. |
T4:6.6 | call you to a new choice with the full realization that your choice | alone will affect millions of your brothers and sisters, as long as— |
T4:12.26 | how new this is—and more. But the difference is that you are not | alone and that you are not in a foreign land but returned to your |
D:1.14 | I am no longer the personal self who was separate and | alone. I am my Christ Self. I dwell in unity. My identity is certain. |
D:4.2 | differences that made you feel as if each being stood separate and | alone, you are now called to see no more. In unity you are whole and |
D:5.6 | that shows you that completion does not come of standing | alone but of joining, as love does not come alone but in relationship. |
D:5.6 | not come of standing alone but of joining, as love does not come | alone but in relationship. |
D:13.8 | You have been told and told again that you are not | alone, and this has been among the biggest hurdles for many of you to |
D:13.8 | be overwhelming. You will begin to truly understand that you are not | alone and separate, and that even the coming to know of the state of |
D:13.9 | knows that you also do not come to the knowing of the state of unity | alone. Why then would you think that you could come to full |
D:17.7 | You are not | alone in your glory or achievement and you marvel that this takes |
D:Day1.4 | Why should this be so important? Why not leave well enough | alone? If acceptance of Jesus is a stumbling block for many, why |
D:Day4.1 | the early part of this Course just to convince you that you are not | alone and separate. Although my arguments were not fed by anger, your |
D:Day4.25 | of the ego-self, without the dismantling of the self as separate and | alone, you could not learn the truth no matter how much attention you |
D:Day5.9 | access point for unity even while remembering it is not of the body | alone. |
D:Day7.2 | had you not denied your Self. When you saw yourself as separate and | alone, you could not help but suffer fear, loneliness, and all the |
D:Day14.13 | be heard as the voice of the one. You are not on this mountain top | alone! Can you not hear your own voice? Can you not hear the voices |
D:Day15.27 | You may, thus, find that there is a time of walking | alone approaching, or a time of gathering with many. You will realize |
D:Day18.9 | not have been a cause of truth. Just as neither brain nor heart | alone provide for a functioning body, mind and heart in separation |
D:Day27.6 | Coming to know is not an aspect of the mind | alone. It is not an aspect of the spirit alone. Coming to know is a |
D:Day27.6 | not an aspect of the mind alone. It is not an aspect of the spirit | alone. Coming to know is a quality of inner-sight, of wholehearted |
D:Day32.15 | would truly exist. Each entity or being would be singular and | alone. Yet God has been referred to as the All of All. How could God |

C:12.11 | All of creation seems to hum | along in perfect harmony. The stars light up the sky, the sun and |
C:15.4 | of those they love they cannot be made to feel special—and you | along with them—then what is the point of being here at all? For |
C:17.14 | space in the universe that is yours and has become part of the whole | along with you. All that has proceeded from fear is nothing, and has |
C:19.6 | a separated self yearns for union and knowledge of its Creator. Thus | along with this yearning was a means provided for its fulfillment, |
C:20.19 | Are your tears not shed for what lives and breathes and exists | along with you? And is the you who shed such tears a personal being? |
C:28.10 | time to rely on conviction that comes from the witnesses you find | along your way. They serve a limited purpose for a limited time. Now |
C:31.28 | too do you look to your brothers and sisters and all else that lives | along with you. But when you look, knowing not what you seek, what |
T1:4.2 | Thus we must dispel, | along with the illusion of fear, the illusion of specificity. You |
T2:1.6 | learned, is simply rest. It is not a resting place, a place to stop | along the journey of life any more than it is a place at which life |
T2:5.4 | These calls you may think of as signs. Like literal signposts | along a roadway, they alert you to turn your attention in a |
T3:1.12 | this, both in life and in all time and time beyond time, making you, | along with me, the accomplished. As has already been said, the |
T3:2.4 | part of the foundation that has been built around this system. Now, | along with the beliefs put forth in “A Treatise on Unity,” you are |
T3:10.8 | Along with forgetting there is another practice that will help you to | |
T3:20.6 | being won. You chide yourself not to deny the facts, and you begin, | along with the one whom you observe, the long walk toward death’s |
T3:22.5 | teacher originated in A Course in Miracles and was furthered here. | Along with this resignation is the concept of receiving rather than |
T4:3.6 | to return to your natural state of being. The fear that was birthed | along with the erroneously inherited idea that it was your nature to |
T4:9.8 | beyond their personal capacity. Now these forerunners of the new, | along with you, are called to step beyond what they have learned to |
T4:9.8 | have learned to what can only be revealed. These are my beloved, | along with you, and this an entreaty meant especially for them. |
T4:10.3 | As you have advanced | along your self-centered path of learning, you have come to see |
T4:10.14 | to your union and relationship with God wherein you are creators | along with God. |
T4:12.21 | and relationship, and thus creating anew in unity and relationship. | Along with the creation of a new language, another imperative |
D:1.3 | separated self still “trying,” still “struggling,” still fumbling | along. You do not see the natural grace and order of the universe |
D:4.5 | will retire. You remain at the mercy of those who are incarcerated | along with you. You remain at the mercy of those who would have power |
D:12.13 | body’s eyes or ears or any of what you consider to be your senses. | Along with this main idea it is essential for you to realize that |
D:13.3 | known but long forgotten identity of the Self and all that lives | along with you. This knowing will, for a while yet, be surprising |
D:14.9 | that naturally extend from the state of unity in which all exist | along with you, was advanced by the idea of acceptance you took to |
D:15.15 | animated by the wind of spirit and at one time sailing—flying | along with the wind at your back—and at another time sitting still |
D:15.15 | your back—and at another time sitting still or seemingly bobbing | along with no apparent direction. You have attempted to build better |
D:17.24 | many paths and many miles. All the heartaches are experienced | along the way. All the experiences and learning occur on the journey. |
D:Day3.30 | you, those of you who have money see it in the same way. You may go | along just fine for weeks or months or years, unworried about your |
D:Day4.51 | here coming to know once again, which is why the time of fear, and | along with it the time of learning, can cease to be. |
D:Day5.20 | give in to this desire fully, it would speed the transformation | along quite nicely. So please, listen to your weariness and to your |
D:Day6.8 | of art that comes to completion includes a choice. At some point | along the way a commitment is made between the artist and the piece |
D:Day6.27 | feeling this devotion extend to others, particularly those who, | along with us, work toward its accomplishment. In doing so you are |
D:Day7.8 | I have yet to speak of, are also in an in-between state. They exist | along with the new you. They exist in acceptance and union. They do |
D:Day10.37 | these causes of fear with the means and end that will transform them | along with you. You are means and end. It is within your power to be |
D:Day15.11 | be informed with others who have reached this level of neutrality | along with you. This is why observation is not being replaced. |
D:Day15.27 | so that as you join in true spaciousness with those coming to know | along with you, you do not create false ideas concerning what this is |
D:Day16.8 | only through acceptance. Without acceptance, the separation remains | along with the physical manifestation. |
D:Day16.13 | What you hold within the embrace is held in love and so exists | along with you in the spacious state of constant coming to know. |
D:Day23.3 | you are connected and interconnected to all that lives and breathes | along with you. We are coming metaphorically and literally out of the |
D:Day28.6 | sorts and just keep following the opportunities that are presented | along one path. They may have chosen one career, for instance, and |
D:Day36.5 | “of” your choice are those that would move the story of your life | along as a “personal” experience rather than as experience itself. |
E.6 | only path in the world and you will wonder why you didn’t see it all | along. Expect this. And it will be. So be it. |
E.27 | as many of love’s expressions as the world needs to be returned, | along with you, to its own Self. |

A.10 | Often you will find a desire to read the Course again—to read it | aloud—to hear it spoken. This is a natural desire to let the words |

C:P.31 | living God. What more than this is necessary? You seek form when you | already have content. Does this make any sense? |
C:P.38 | in you teaches only in the sense of imparting knowledge that you | already have and once again have access to as you join with your own |
C:2.1 | You cannot be taught love but you can be taught to see love where it | already exists. The body’s eyes are not the eyes with which love can |
C:3.2 | and you cannot be learned. All that you desire and cannot learn is | already accomplished. It is accomplished in you. It is you. Imagine |
C:4.8 | passion—all these things that you have made to replace what you | already have will lead you back as surely as they can lead you |
C:5.1 | been forgotten. Thus we begin to relearn the known as the One who | already possesses all. It is this joining of the human and divine |
C:5.20 | The first and only exercise for your mind within this Course has | already been stated: Dedicate your thought to union. When senseless |
C:6.11 | and the infirm, the ones ready to leave the world, those who have | already grown worn out from it. What fun would such a heaven be for |
C:7.8 | be heard and held within your heart. Hold it joyously alongside what | already occupies your heart—the love you set aside and the piece of |
C:7.11 | a bad day. Why should you give anything to anyone when your day has | already treated you so badly? You withhold even a smile, because you |
C:7.18 | we call on love and the hidden knowledge of your heart. Your heart | already sees in a manner much more whole than the perception of your |
C:8.1 | thoughts stand apart from the wisdom of your heart that we have | already discussed—the wisdom that knows to set love apart, as well |
C:10.9 | You will stay until you realize that God has given everything | already to everyone. |
C:12.3 | How quickly you would return to cynicism and to believing you have | already tried and failed. For all of you believe that you have tried |
C:12.18 | see that one idea took root and changed what seemed to be a destiny | already written. |
C:12.22 | a completely reshaped life, a destiny different than that which had | already been written. Yet this participation could not but proceed |
C:13.2 | too. It but calls for you to ask one thing: Ask yourself what you | already know of the spirit of the person you observe. You will be |
C:13.2 | of the person you observe. You will be amazed at the knowledge you | already have and the joy it brings you to remember it. |
C:13.5 | The love from each will fill you with happiness because it is | already complete and has no needs and so no sense of longing or |
C:13.7 | you feel resistance to attempting this exercise, remember that you | already know that you are more than your body, and ask yourself if it |
C:13.9 | let your real Self guide you gently back to where you want to be and | already are in truth. |
C:13.12 | fear is here, and no grievances of any kind. For here forgiveness is | already accomplished—and when memory of forgiveness returns to you, |
C:16.11 | go of what your mind would tell you in favor of what your heart | already knows is but the purpose of this Course. |
C:18.17 | that a split mind makes decision making difficult. You were | already told that the only exercise for your mind that would be |
C:19.19 | or atonement, has begun—and once begun is unstoppable and thus | already inevitably accomplished. |
C:27.6 | We have | already stated that relationship is the only “known” in an unknowable |
C:27.6 | relationship is the only “known” in an unknowable world. We have | already stated that the only being who is not beyond the limits of |
C:27.11 | as an interactive part of the relationship that is life. You are | already accomplished as who you are. All is accomplished in unity. In |
C:31.18 | is your identity. Honesty is being free of deception. You, who are | already worrying about honesty and sharing being about some need to |
C:31.18 | as a need to share. This would seem antithetical with what I have | already said—that what you keep you lose, and what you share you |
C:32.5 | or believe in loss of anything of any kind. Thus will all you have | already received be remembered in this time of the second coming of |
T1:1.1 | source of conflict and of all seeking. No one seeks for what they | already know how to find or for what they already believe they |
T1:1.1 | No one seeks for what they already know how to find or for what they | already believe they possess. |
T1:1.11 | You can | already imagine what an extensive change this will bring, and, as you |
T1:2.9 | You have | already succeeded in learning in this new way once or you would not |
T1:3.11 | not want to lose any of you here, but such is your fear that you can | already see your own loss. As great as the fear of miracles is, the |
T1:3.22 | some future date? What about the correction of something that has | already occurred? You have far too many questions without answers to |
T1:4.19 | has given them their meaning—think again. Their meaning exists | already and is not up to you to determine. This is not your |
T1:4.21 | As was | already stated, the first opportunities for you to learn the art of |
T1:6.2 | by learning the art of thought as the act of prayer. We have spoken | already of memory here, and have presented the acts of reproducing |
T1:9.12 | In the broadest of terms, this is | already happening. As the ego has become threatened and allowed the |
T1:10.9 | be asking you to give up these types of experiences. But you have | already had them! I ask you not to give them up. Only to make now a |
T2:1.13 | the treasure exists without these “things” and that the treasure is | already a fully realized creation. The treasure already is and it is |
T2:1.13 | that the treasure is already a fully realized creation. The treasure | already is and it is already valuable and available. |
T2:1.13 | already a fully realized creation. The treasure already is and it is | already valuable and available. |
T2:2.7 | and outcome of following such a call, seek for proof they have | already been given. The call itself is proof. It is proof of the |
T2:3.1 | Your life is | already an act of creation. It was created. All of it. It exists, |
T2:3.2 | or realm of one heart and one mind. It is the place where everything | already exists fully realized. It is like a trunk full of treasure. |
T2:3.2 | All you must do is wholeheartedly recognize the treasure you have | already chosen to bring to the world. Your heart speaks to you of |
T2:3.2 | I have said, in the realm of unity where your being resides, this is | already accomplished. Your link between the realm of unity and the |
T2:3.2 | the realm of physicality is your heart. Your heart tells you of the | already accomplished and bids you to express it with your |
T2:3.7 | may be easier to explain. If the ability to create beautiful music | already exists within you, you do not have to learn what beautiful |
T2:3.7 | true that the seeds of much of creation lie dormant within you, | already accomplished but awaiting expression in this realm of |
T2:4.15 | changed nor that you are in need of accomplishment rather than the | already accomplished. What this means is that you are still in need |
T2:5.3 | This might be considered the highest form of call, the call from the | already accomplished to the already accomplished. Such a call signals |
T2:5.3 | highest form of call, the call from the already accomplished to the | already accomplished. Such a call signals an end to learning from the |
T2:6.4 | Only you can be accomplished and your accomplishment is | already complete. |
T2:6.5 | I say that it is what would “seem to” purposefully. If you are | already accomplished, this trick of your mind has not worked. And |
T2:6.8 | indicative of all that can be accomplished rather than of what is | already accomplished that needs adjustment now. As a tree exists |
T2:6.8 | Physical form and action of all kinds are but expressions of what | already exist within the seed of the already accomplished. |
T2:6.8 | are but expressions of what already exist within the seed of the | already accomplished. |
T2:6.9 | The recognition that you are | already accomplished is a condition of your recognition of the state |
T2:6.9 | of the pattern of ordinary time. Although this state exists as the | already accomplished, it is up to you to create it for yourself. You |
T2:6.9 | it for yourself only because you believe you replaced what was | already accomplished with what you made. This is what is happening as |
T2:6.10 | As I have | already said that your heart must exist where you think you are, you |
T2:7.21 | may seem to still take time, this belief builds on the belief of the | already accomplished through experience. As you experience giving and |
T2:8.6 | of something that is not available here. Here is the realm of the | already accomplished. This is home. Your expression of who you are |
T2:8.7 | How much time will be saved by an end to empty seeking? You have | already arrived and need no time to journey any longer. How much time |
T2:9.5 | if you “have” needs even long after they have been met. Since I have | already stated that you do have needs this may seem confusing. |
T2:9.8 | danger of being taken away. All that you are capable of having you | already have as the already accomplished. All that you would give |
T2:9.8 | away. All that you are capable of having you already have as the | already accomplished. All that you would give will take nothing away |
T2:9.13 | of creation without either constantly striving for more of what you | already have or for what you consider progress? You need a means of |
T2:9.14 | be at rest or that you will be constantly seeking to arrive. As has | already been said, you have arrived and rest exists only in the state |
T2:10.10 | you are back to your united mind and heart. This is the knowing that | already exists, the memory that is swatted away by the ego. |
T2:11.8 | Yet, as has | already been said, the ego, having been with you from your earliest |
T2:12.8 | you call to those whom you meet in relationship, you call but to the | already accomplished. |
T2:12.11 | but remain a source of struggle. The ego would hang on to what is | already accomplished within you, never to let it express, through |
T3:1.12 | beyond time, making you, along with me, the accomplished. As has | already been said, the accomplished Self is the Christ. Your |
T3:5.5 | All this you have | already tried to do. These lessons you have already tried to learn. |
T3:5.5 | All this you have already tried to do. These lessons you have | already tried to learn. This Course has come so that these many |
T3:10.11 | is past. Uncertainty will not now come to teach you lessons you have | already learned but will only visit you as an echo from the past. It |
T3:12.5 | remains time-bound, your awareness is still limited. As has | already been stated, in order to remove the limits that continue to |
T3:14.10 | need to blame yourself for. You would not be here if you had not | already felt regret and sorrow for the hurts you have caused others. |
T3:14.11 | We have spoken | already of historical causes for vengeance and blame. The suffering |
T3:16.6 | by what will be, is a change that must occur within. As has | already been said, this change has to do with the time-bound |
T3:16.7 | You are | already accomplished. |
T3:16.8 | accomplished, but The Accomplished, it is being said that you are | already what you have sought to be. Thus, in order to live by the |
T3:16.8 | these temptations is not resistance at all but the idea that you are | already accomplished. Keeping this idea in the forefront of your mind |
T3:17.1 | Why would you ever have chosen to obscure the truth? As we have | already shown, to have chosen to express the Self in physical form |
T3:20.7 | and you might pray that God spare this one from a future seemingly | already written, and think that is more realistic and even helpful |

T3:22.2 | Surely there are | already those called to represent not only their true Selves but this |
T4:1.17 | this time and the time that has but seemed to have gone before has | already been stated as the difference between the time of the Holy |
T4:2.19 | you think in terms of future outcome rather than in terms of what | already is. This type of thinking will not serve the new or allow you |
T4:2.30 | through your days as you have in the past. And yet your vision has | already changed, although you are not aware of the extent of this |
T4:2.33 | Seeing with the vision of Christ-consciousness is | already upon you. You are in the process of learning what it means. |

T4:12.3 | At this time, there is a gathering of pioneers of the new | already in existence. They are beginning to see that they learn as |
T4:12.12 | This example arose from one of those | already gathered who was questioning the state of contentment. She |

T4:12.29 | share. You do not have to continually choose unity, because you have | already chosen unity and abide there. You do, however, have to |
T4:12.31 | with your brothers and sisters, is simply communication of what | already is. This will help you to adapt to the revelations that |
D:1.5 | with me you cannot fail. You cannot fail to be prepared, for you are | already accomplished. What will it now take for your mind to accept |
D:1.6 | dwell in the house of the Lord, the new world, the Kingdom that has | already been prepared and so needs no preparation. |
D:3.21 | this is just the first step revealed and that many of you will feel | already as if you are being asked to learn again and not only that, |
D:3.21 | to learn. What you need remember now is that your separated self | already learned this concept of giving and receiving, and that for |
D:3.21 | of what is, is a quality of Christ-consciousness. Thus you are | already aware of the truth of giving and receiving being one. This |
D:3.23 | attempts to do is to give you a language to support what you | already know, and are already aware of, so that you are more |
D:3.23 | is to give you a language to support what you already know, and are | already aware of, so that you are more comfortable with letting what |
D:5.21 | You will soon wonder, if you haven’t | already, just how it is going to be possible to live as your new Self |
D:5.22 | No longer wait to be told more before you accept what you have | already been told. Do not wait for a grander call before you accept |
D:5.22 | Do not wait for a grander call before you accept the call that has | already sounded in your heart. Let this be the day of your final |
D:6.1 | you heard many ideas that either changed or reinforced those you | already had about yourself. A Course of Love is a teaching text and |
D:6.3 | This is what I have | already spoken of and speak of again as a revisioning of what you |
D:6.8 | you were making things to represent. These are the systems we have | already spoken of: Systems of justice, systems of government, systems |
D:6.24 | the body be called to accept? This is an easy answer, as you have | already called upon the body to accept the indwelling of Christ. You |
D:6.27 | come to know the changes that only occur in “time” although they are | already accomplished in unity. This is why we have spoken of miracles |
D:8.7 | Thus, like the home in which you reside, the idea that you have an | already existing awareness of the Source of unity beyond the body |
D:8.11 | separated self and into the circle of unity where all you desire is | already accomplished in the fullness and wholeness of the undivided |
D:9.12 | be cited as a cause for talent, but what is heredity but that which | already exists within you? So too is it with an idea. An idea already |
D:9.12 | which already exists within you? So too is it with an idea. An idea | already exists within you, but is awaiting its birth through you. |
D:9.13 | you must now come to see your form; it is that through which what | already exists, what is already accomplished, comes or passes through |

D:9.14 | beyond the dot of the body; and if you accept that these ideas that | already exist were able to pass through you in order to gain |
D:10.3 | and learning limits them. It is your joyous acceptance of the | already accomplished state of these givens that allows expression of |
D:10.4 | begin to realize that the bringing forth of the accomplishment that | already exists in unity is your new work, the work of the Self of |
D:11.7 | The way to achieve this state is through acceptance that it is | already accomplished. And yet, as soon as your thoughts begin to |
D:11.11 | To believe that you are | already accomplished and not live from this belief is insane for |
D:11.11 | accomplished and not live from this belief is insane for reasons | already enumerated time and time again. What prevents this belief |
D:12.8 | We have spoken | already of “entering into” dialogue. When you enter into dialogue |
D:12.8 | that the ability of “thoughts” not your own to enter you is | already commonplace. |
D:12.9 | We have | already established that the thoughts that arise from unity are not |
D:12.13 | strange and unusual as it may sound, that this access and entryway | already exists within you, and that you have already benefited from |
D:12.13 | access and entryway already exists within you, and that you have | already benefited from moments of interaction with, if not awareness |
D:12.14 | like, you will undoubtedly realize this: You have had such thoughts | already, thoughts that came to you with an authority that you are not |
D:13.3 | which is a shared state. Although what you will be coming to know is | already known to you, it will still come in the form of a surprising |
D:14.12 | Becoming is all about a movement into form or manifestation. You | already are manifest in form, and so the idea of becoming that has |
D:15.18 | Maintenance assumes that you | already have something of value, and that you wish to take care of it |
D:16.2 | moves inevitably to join with the accomplishment and wholeness that | already exist in unity. Creation occurs in each of us, seemingly one |
D:Day3.1 | which one moves. The first is denial, the second is anger. We have | already spoken of denial, albeit in a new way. Now we will speak of |
D:Day3.49 | Many of you will have | already entered this step, this step of considering how what you |
D:Day4.17 | Let me assure you of what you | already know, that everything about my life was purposeful. That |
D:Day4.36 | to its limits, all the while realizing that its fulfillment lies | already accomplished within, in the access that lies within. |
D:Day5.2 | you who have felt the point of entry to be the mind in experiences | already registered, there is no need to combat this feeling. For |
D:Day6.19 | full realization and manifestation without the accomplishment that | already exists. |
D:Day7.11 | of acceptance are conditions of creation and include those we have | already spoken of as movement, being, and expression; and |
D:Day7.12 | relationship with the devotion of holy relationship that we have | already spoken of. Another replacement is that of control with grace. |
D:Day16.10 | in the embrace of love is the opposite of holding onto what you have | already responded to with fear and made separate. There is no escape |

D:Day17.4 | in the mind and more and more about coming to know what others had | already learned and were capable of teaching, learning began to fail |
D:Day21.1 | The first transition, as you have probably | already realized, is about a letting-go of any of the ideas that you |
D:Day25.6 | do this with an attitude of looking for something. What has come has | already come. It does not require seeking. Be a gardener in such |
D:Day27.6 | both levels of being through the experience of life. You have | already been doing this. You are, in fact, becoming well-practiced. |
D:Day29.1 | in your mind, they cease to be separate. Remember that you have | already realized the ability to participate in two levels of |
D:Day29.4 | this talk of accomplishment is merely about bringing forward what | already exists into the reality in which you exist. Another way of |
D:Day31.4 | As has | already been stated, wholeness could not be experienced without |

C:12.23 | His son remains with him in his eternal home, joined with him as | always in eternal completion. |
C:13.2 | As you observe, | always with your heart and not your mind, and begin to include others |
C:14.3 | The same occurs when you would make yourself inferior, and you are | always making for yourself a place at one of these extremes. And all |
C:14.20 | is still the same. It is the chance that cannot be foreseen but is | always there: death may take their loved one prematurely, and if not |
C:14.28 | Fear, through your own choice, replaces and discards love. Fear is | always strongest when you value something that you feel may be |
C:19.10 | and sisters rather than simply relating to their bodies as you | always have. I was not seen as a body by those who believed in me, |
C:19.18 | prayer awaits is but your belief in the love without fear that has | always responded. |
C:19.24 | notion of yourself allows you to both protect and conceal. Fault | always lies elsewhere. The guiltless part of you is always free to |
C:19.24 | conceal. Fault always lies elsewhere. The guiltless part of you is | always free to redeem the guilt-filled self. This idea of |
C:21.9 | Your brothers and sisters in Christ is an expression that has | always been meant to symbolize the unity of those who know the one |
C:22.23 | is very much intact, but that it is different than you have | always imagined it to be. You will find that you fulfill a grand |
C:23.22 | who you are now in terms that coincide with the “you” whom you have | always been. |
C:25.4 | it, change for it, or capture it. This you cannot do. Yet, love is | always present. Let us spend a moment considering this contradiction. |
C:25.5 | How can love | always be present when you can undeniably feel each and every absence |
C:25.13 | or disillusioned, you will not be invulnerable. There is | always, behind every disappointment or disillusion, every attack and |
C:26.23 | pattern of God’s creation? Or that you not only can know but have | always known of this place? |
C:27.8 | for the connection of unity. Thus your relationship with Christ | always was and always will be. Your task here is to come to know that |
C:27.8 | of unity. Thus your relationship with Christ always was and | always will be. Your task here is to come to know that relationship |
C:30.11 | and receiving is thus never complete, and the certainty you seek | always waiting for something you do not yet have—some information, |
C:31.10 | for release from pain, for reward, or for an afterlife. But man has | always looked to God for his own Self. Not looking to God to find |
C:31.21 | to love are accomplished and simply become the truth that has | always existed about who you are. |
C:31.30 | life you state this seeking you are doing quite clearly, and it is | always specific. You are looking for a friend, a spouse, a mentor. |
C:32.2 | your mind, you call upon the Holy Spirit. Thus is the Sacred Trinity | always available in every situation, and for whichever learning mode |
T1:4.16 | Look like? It is a response of pure appreciation and love. It is | always available. It is the gift given in everything you look upon |
T1:6.1 | this is why it can be unlearned. The thought system of the truth is | always present as the truth is always present and can be neither |
T1:6.1 | The thought system of the truth is always present as the truth is | always present and can be neither learned nor unlearned. It will thus |
T2:3.3 | you think you are and where your being actually resides. Remember | always that your heart is where the Christ in you abides and that the |
T2:4.5 | brought on by any number of factors. Either way, the result would | always be the same; a sudden change from ease of movement to |
T2:4.6 | which unity is recognized. The water is not taken for granted but | always recognized as the condition of the swimmer’s environment. You |
T2:6.9 | for your Self even though it is actually a return to what has | always been. You are changing the world you perceive by perceiving a |
T2:11.4 | the power to do battle with the truth, or with God. Remember now and | always that you and God are one and that what you invite to do battle |
T3:3.1 | Your personal self is dear to you and dear to me as well. I have | always loved you because I have always recognized you. What cannot be |
T3:3.1 | you and dear to me as well. I have always loved you because I have | always recognized you. What cannot be recognized or known cannot be |
T3:3.1 | cannot be loved. While your ego has not been loveable, you have | always been. Here is where you need realize that the personal self |
T3:3.3 | under the pall of having disappointed others. Still others have | always found their lives to be beyond their efforts at control and |
T3:3.9 | I have | always loved you for I have always recognized you. While your |
T3:3.9 | I have always loved you for I have | always recognized you. While your recognition of your Self has come a |
T3:3.9 | you are “good enough” for days or hours or moments, but something | always and eventually calls you back to the idea that you are not |
T3:5.4 | and this time spent kept you too busy to see the light that was | always visible through the cracked and peeling walls that you built. |
T3:6.4 | here. Since the ego is a chosen self and a learned self, there has | always been just enough room within the ego’s thought system to keep |
T3:6.5 | bitterness is just another word, another label for the evil you have | always been convinced existed in the hearts of some, but even being |
T3:8.6 | to suffer, as well as the choice to leave suffering behind, has | always been found within? Who then are you to be angry with for all |
T3:8.13 | Has not a part of you | always known that suffering does not have to be even while you have |
T3:10.9 | This will be easy because the thoughts of the ego-mind were | always harsh with you or with others. The Christ-mind and the |
T3:12.2 | eternal, eternal levels of consciousness that still exist and have | always existed. |
T3:13.10 | small amount of money each day that you ordinarily would not spend, | always with the idea in mind that this will not affect your budget in |
T3:15.4 | of the past that would seem to make them foolish. There is | always some “thing” that is expected to change. This idea is |
T3:16.17 | whole. What forms the House of Truth is love eternal and it has | always encompassed you, even unto encompassing the house of illusion |
T3:17.3 | and each self of form dies out of time. Both birth and death have | always existed as choices, as beginnings and endings to the finite |
T3:17.6 | stories that symbolize what is. In these stories, the Holy Spirit is | always called upon to return the true Self to the self of illusion. A |
T3:18.9 | you in the manner in which you choose to have it serve you. It has | always been led by your thought system. If it is no longer instructed |
T3:19.4 | greed, hate and fear, vengeance and retribution. These things have | always had as their cause the thought system of the ego or the |
T3:20.2 | more or less to learning in terms of knowing the truth that you have | always known, but there are degrees of remembering and since this is |
T3:20.6 | cannot feel anything but “sorry” for the one suffering. Yet you are | always drawn, despite these feelings of the “badness” of the |
T3:21.19 | you might rightly ask, can you cease to identify yourself as you | always have and use the only identity you have been certain of for a |
T3:22.3 | of walks of life, to what you currently do or to something you have | always dreamt of doing. Wherever you go, whatever you do, the truth |
T3:22.4 | Since your personal self was | always meant to represent the truth of who you are, the seeds of who |
T3:22.4 | of who you are, are planted there, right within the self you have | always been. There has always been within you, however, a creative |
T3:22.4 | planted there, right within the self you have always been. There has | always been within you, however, a creative tension between accepting |
T3:22.11 | cannot observe your new Self without observing the truth that has | always existed. The truth that has always existed is our oneness, and |
T3:22.11 | observing the truth that has always existed. The truth that has | always existed is our oneness, and what you will observe about your |
T3:22.18 | the new as the new embraces you. The new is but the truth that has | always existed. Go forth and live the truth with impatience only for |
T4:1.8 | love. But there is, in other words, no lack of choice. A choice is | always made. A choice to accept or reject, say yes or say no, to |
T4:1.17 | and direction communication or experience. The same truth has | always existed, but the choice of a means of coming to know the truth |
T4:2.3 | I have | always been a proponent of The Way of Christ-consciousness as The Way |
T4:2.5 | The people of the Earth, as well as all that was created, have | always been the beloved of God because Love was and is the means of |
T4:2.15 | your learning of this Course, you are not other than whom you have | always been. Who you are now was there when you were a child, and |
T4:2.15 | Self you are now was indeed present, and the truth of who you were | always. |
T4:2.22 | can be more and more steadily aware. It is a new relationship. Unity | always existed. Oneness always existed. God always existed. But you |
T4:2.22 | aware. It is a new relationship. Unity always existed. Oneness | always existed. God always existed. But you separated yourself from |
T4:2.22 | new relationship. Unity always existed. Oneness always existed. God | always existed. But you separated yourself from direct awareness of |
T4:4.18 | physical form? You will see it simply as the transformation it has | always been, the transformation from singular consciousness to |
T4:7.5 | to bring about this acceptance of the truth, a truth your heart has | always known but has been unable to free you to accept without the |
T4:8.9 | God | always knew what your mind chose to rebel against: that creation is |
T4:9.9 | to the glory that awaits you in the creation of the new. You will | always be honored for what you have done. But do you want this to be |
T4:12.13 | of growth was synonymous with your idea of learning? That you were | always both awaiting and dreading your next learning challenge? |
T4:12.16 | of the human experience, to be integral to your nature. Have you not | always been told and seen examples of man pushing against his limits? |
T4:12.22 | Again let me remind you that we are speaking of the new. There has | always been a state of consciousness that we are here calling |
T4:12.22 | Christ-consciousness in form. The Christ-consciousness that has | always existed, a consciousness of what is, is an all-inclusive |
D:1.15 | is no longer learning. The goal is accepting the identity that has | always been yours and that has newly been revealed and returned to |
D:3.2 | the bell of the Lord, your invitation to return home. This call has | always sounded. It is not a death knell but a call to life. It is not |
D:3.3 | you and asks you to invest your life with the very purpose you have | always desired. You are not purposeless now. Your life is not |
D:3.18 | the Self and the elevated Self of form. The Self was and will | always remain more than the body. The body, however, is also newly |
D:4.14 | The truth is a system of thought. It exists in wholeness and has | always been available. |
D:4.16 | the ego entered with its false ideas and judgment, contrast did not | always provide the lessons it was meant to provide. In addition, |
D:6.26 | love, the embodiment of divinity. Its existence is given as it was | always given. But now the very nature of its existence has changed. I |
D:6.26 | that change occurs in time. Outside of time and form your Self has | always existed in the perfect harmony in which it was created. Now |
D:7.27 | consciously aware of existing in this “larger” home, you will not | always be aware of this circle of the Self as the All of Everything, |
D:8.4 | factors leading to this realization because a part of you has | always known this ability was a “given.” That you are gifted—given |
D:9.3 | about who you are. You have been led to see that this desire has | always been with you, and you have thought it is the very desire |
D:9.10 | the Treatises were not inconsistent with our aims here. Learning | always has as its goal leading the learner beyond learning. With “A |
D:10.7 | a way that existed prior to the time of learning and that has | always existed. When put into practice and allowed to replace the |
D:11.11 | and an explanation that makes sense in terms of the world you have | always known. |
D:11.12 | words will never make sense within the terms of the world you have | always known. No explanation will ever be good enough for those who |
D:12.11 | thinking does not serve you, you do have, right now, and have | always had, true thoughts that come to you from your Self, the Self |
D:15.1 | you must come to know the way of creation as it is. It has not | always been the same, and it will not be the same in the future as it |
D:17.4 | Can you understand that what you claim in form and time was | always yours? |
D:Day1.22 | The story came after the fact. Thus the fulfillment was | always part of the story of creation. It was always part of you as it |
D:Day1.22 | the fulfillment was always part of the story of creation. It was | always part of you as it was always part of me. |
D:Day1.22 | part of the story of creation. It was always part of you as it was | always part of me. |
D:Day2.4 | come to fruition, and now has succeeded in inventing just what was | always envisioned. This is the moment of fulfillment and desire |
D:Day2.6 | continue to have a nagging feeling that this stone of regret will | always keep you anchored to the self you once were, that no matter |
D:Day3.5 | seems to arise, anger is a product of the condition of learning. It | always was, but now this is being revealed to you not just through my |
D:Day3.23 | Even if you are one of those others consider lucky, one of those who | always has “just enough,” little do others know that your fear is as |
D:Day3.38 | with God, the way of knowing through discovery. Remember | always that knowing through discovery is knowing what was not known |
D:Day3.45 | to earn and to learn, to, in short, carry on in the world as you | always have. |
D:Day4.57 | achievements, but the acknowledgments of the accomplishment that has | always existed within you and all of your brothers and sisters. |
D:Day5.23 | if not, the pattern of learning will remain. This is why there have | always seemed to be “secrets” held among the great healers and |
D:Day6.20 | I know it doesn’t | always seem so. Give your attention for a moment to the temptations |
D:Day7.5 | is now all that is left that can be degenerating to you. While you | always were supported, the idea of learning that you accepted during |
D:Day7.13 | how the dominoes fall and each condition of learning is replaced, | always by a far gentler and more compassionate alternative. Thus |
D:Day7.15 | is a phrase that will only be used in this in-between time. You have | always existed in unity and once this is fully realized you will no |
D:Day7.18 | the conditions of the time of learning, arise from within. Life has | always existed within the conditions of the time of acceptance. The |
D:Day8.23 | Remember | always that we work now to unite the Self of union with the self of |
D:Day12.2 | may seem to be embodied by form but the reverse is true and has | always been true. The body is now ready to know that it is embodied, |
D:Day15.20 | or practice stage of movement, it is obvious that movement will | always be needed for the clear pool to not become a stagnant pond. |
D:Day15.23 | same time, aiding in the realization that what you come to know has | always existed within you in the realm of the unknown that also |
D:Day17.4 | to inspire movement beyond simple awareness to knowing. You have | always been aware that you exist and always been in search of an |
D:Day17.4 | awareness to knowing. You have always been aware that you exist and | always been in search of an answer as to why you exist. You have |
D:Day17.4 | and always been in search of an answer as to why you exist. You have | always been aware of the world around you and always been in search |
D:Day17.4 | you exist. You have always been aware of the world around you and | always been in search of answers to what the world around you is all |
D:Day17.5 | There have | always been individuals who challenged the predominant patterns of |
D:Day18.9 | separate this separation never actually occurred and that you have | always been the accomplished. If this had not been true, the cause of |
D:Day18.11 | feelings are shown, or made visible, the new is created. This has | always been the way of creation. Each blade of grass, each flower, |
D:Day19.16 | it can lead to judgment. When there is more than one way, there is | always room for comparison and judgment. Thus it is realistic to see |
D:Day20.7 | This is why you can “know” while | always coming to know. Why you can know yourself and constantly be |
D:Day21.3 | information coherent without the action of the receiver. Thus it has | always been the action of the receiver that made learning possible. |
D:Day21.6 | would eventually make teacher and learner equal. Means and end have | always been the same. |
D:Day24.2 | does not exist only once potential is realized or made manifest, but | always in all things. |
D:Day24.5 | step in the accomplishment of wholeness, even while wholeness has | always existed as potential. Do not forget, however, that wholeness |
D:Day24.5 | existed as potential. Do not forget, however, that wholeness has | always existed, that potential is that which exists, or that |
D:Day24.7 | not left behind. The caterpillar, the cocoon, and the butterfly have | always been one and remain one. Each form is but a different stage in |
D:Day24.7 | must die to its present form in order to begin again. Thus spirit is | always becoming, even when it must die to begin again. |
D:Day27.6 | human experience combined with spiritual experience. You are and | always have been both human and spirit, both form and content. Now |

D:Day27.12 | a moment, just as an illustration, of your experience of separation | always taking place at a certain number of degrees away from the |
D:Day27.12 | from the ideal. The “temperature” was thus never perfect, but rather | always either too hot or too cold. Yet the perfect temperature always |
D:Day27.12 | always either too hot or too cold. Yet the perfect temperature | always existed, you just did not experience it. You were, in other |
D:Day27.13 | That you are who you are and that you have | always been the accomplished is a constant and an aspect of |
D:Day27.16 | well as the variability of the experience of the separate self, have | always been variables that exist within the constant of wholeness. |
D:Day29.5 | Your access to union, so newly discovered and yet | always existing within you, has been a part of the process that has |
D:Day29.8 | You are thus, as | always, the creator of your reality. |
D:Day30.3 | Despite unlimited variations being available, commonality is also | always available. Thus no matter how fractious are the separate |
D:Day30.3 | how fractious are the separate selves, commonality and wholeness | always exist and have always existed. |
D:Day30.3 | the separate selves, commonality and wholeness always exist and have | always existed. |
D:Day31.5 | realize oneness, but realize that you are a creator and that you | always have been. |
D:Day33.10 | The only way that you can do this is by | always knowing and never forgetting who you are. You are being in |
D:Day35.2 | of being is thus the answer that you have sought and that you have | always possessed. |
D:Day35.3 | is the cause and effect, the means and end of relationship. You have | always existed in relationship with God who is your being. But while |
D:Day35.6 | As was said before, the mountain came to you. You will thus | always have the power to call upon the mountain top experience and |
D:Day35.19 | made and create thus does not fully do justice to the power you have | always retained. But creating in separation is as different from |
D:Day36.9 | that you are now the creator of your experience. You have | always been creating because you have always been one in being with |
D:Day36.9 | of your experience. You have always been creating because you have | always been one in being with God who is endlessly creating. But you |
D:Day36.10 | truly create difference but only perceive of difference. You thus | always remained one in being with God, yet continued to relate only |
D:Day36.13 | Despite all of this, you have | always had some remembrance of yourself as a creator. Despite all of |
D:Day36.14 | Because you have | always been one in being with God, this power—this power of being— |
D:Day36.14 | been one in being with God, this power—this power of being—has | always been yours. The power to feel—love, hate, anger, compassion, |
D:Day36.14 | —love, hate, anger, compassion, greed, humility, and longing—has | always been yours. The power to think—rationally or passionately, |
D:Day36.14 | think—rationally or passionately, logically or instinctively—has | always been yours. The power to create—everything from weapons of |
D:Day36.14 | weapons of mass destruction to cathedrals of towering majesty—has | always been yours. The power to know or perceive—even an unreal |
D:Day36.14 | yours. The power to know or perceive—even an unreal reality—has | always been yours. |
D:Day36.18 | disappear or cease to be. You are not replaced by God whom you have | always been one with in being. You simply accept the truth of being |

D:Day3.10 | issue, this blatant cause of so much insanity? This cause of such | anger? |
D:Day3.12 | that letting it go, even now, still torments you with worry and | anger. It is the idea of an “if this, then that” world. An idea of a |

C:P.22 | Another failure to accomplish lies at the other end of the spectrum, | |
C:P.23 | Seekers are but | another category of those who at the precipice act as if they have |

C:P.36 | scope like unto the old and hope to transport it from one place to | another would be delusional. The new world does not have to do with |
C:1.8 | you literally carried a heavy and useless trunk from one world to | another when you had been told by someone wiser that it would not be |
C:1.8 | had been told and disregarded. You might try one more thing and then | another that you previously would not have tried when you were so |
C:1.9 | way. There is no shame in learning. No shame in following the course | another has put forth. Each true course changes in application. Fifty |
C:1.9 | the same lessons and not one will learn in exactly the same way as | another. This is true with the teaching and learning of information, |
C:1.11 | your heart that does not consider this an issue of concern. This is | another reason we appeal to the heart. |
C:1.14 | struggle. It is your attraction to the game, a game you hope to win, | another chance to show your stamina and your strength, your quick |
C:1.14 | and your strength, your quick wits and your cunning mind. It is | another chance to prevail against the odds so stacked against you |
C:2.6 | that you are able to act in love in one instance and act in anger in | another, and that both actions originate from the same place, is an |
C:3.3 | in all humans. It is completely impossible for one to have what | another does not have. All is shared. This has always been true and |
C:3.7 | possess at all times and in all places. And so one disappoints and | another enthralls, one champions your cause and another denigrates |
C:3.7 | one disappoints and another enthralls, one champions your cause and | another denigrates you. In all scenarios you remain the maker of your |
C:3.12 | based solely on contrast. One chemical reacts one way and one reacts | another, and it is only in the study of the two that you believe |
C:3.22 | logic in love’s way. Some others might use their thoughts in yet | another manner, claiming to choose love and not pain when what they |
C:4.9 | of God in your world. All else assumes that what one has is denied | another. While love cannot be learned nor practiced, there is a |
C:4.10 | no losers and no winners under God’s law. Not one is given more than | another. God cannot love you more than your neighbor, nor can you |
C:4.14 | Your ideas of being in love are quite | another category all together. In this context love is not only full |
C:4.15 | him or her with praise and gifts, with attention never wavering. | Another who prizes independence seeks a partner in good health, not |
C:4.18 | to other areas of your life. Love is seen as personal, something | another gives in a special way to you alone, and you to him or her. |
C:4.20 | must have no place in this world that you have made but must have | another where you are at home and can abide within love’s presence. |
C:4.21 | you gain the strength you need to walk outside those doors again | another day. You spend your life intent upon retiring to this safe |
C:5.4 | you think of relationship, you think of one relationship and then | another. The one you share with this friend or that, with husband or |
C:5.5 | of your world. You think relationship exists between one body and | another, and while you think this is so, you will not understand |
C:5.6 | Relationship is what exists between one thing and | another. It is not one thing or another thing. It is not a third |
C:5.6 | is what exists between one thing and another. It is not one thing or | another thing. It is not a third thing in terms of being a third |
C:5.6 | all creation to sing a song of gladness. No one thing exists without | another. Cause and effect are one. Thus, one thing cannot cause |
C:5.6 | another. Cause and effect are one. Thus, one thing cannot cause | another without their being one or joined in truth. |
C:5.15 | nonetheless is truly real. To look inward at the real world requires | another kind of vision: the vision of your heart, the vision of love, |
C:5.24 | occurs that you have simply chosen the wrong thing and so choose | another and another, not stopping to realize that you choose among |
C:5.24 | you have simply chosen the wrong thing and so choose another and | another, not stopping to realize that you choose among illusions. You |
C:5.24 | life as a test, driving yourself to follow one accomplishment with | another, sure that the next one or the next will be the one to do the |
C:5.30 | and thus fear of God. You can accept terror that reigns in | another part of the world because you feel no relationship to it. It |
C:6.11 | of you still young and full of vigor? Those still willing to face | another battle? Those who have not yet faced every challenge? If |
C:6.13 | you have given it. “Struggle to succeed and succeed to struggle yet | another day” is the life you have made, and the life you fear heaven |
C:6.15 | with war seek peace. Those who live with failure seek success. Put | another way, both are saying this: you seek to make sense of an |
C:6.17 | seen in heaven’s holy light. No longer do situations pit one against | another, making it impossible for anyone to achieve what they would |
C:7.1 | things within this world. “I had that idea,” you lament when | another succeeds where you have failed. “I could have been where that |
C:7.3 | Comparison of one thing to | another—a comparison that seeks out differences and magnifies them |
C:7.14 | There is | another way in which you withhold pieces of relationships for |
C:7.18 | into right and left hemispheres. One side has one function, one side | another. While your brain and your mind are not the same, your image |
C:7.21 | see the relationship between a pencil and your hand, your body and | another, the actions that you do and the effects they seem to cause. |
C:7.21 | your society. Thus the truth is different in one place than it is in | another and it even appears to be in conflict. You cling to known |
C:8.3 | seeing that you progress from one step, or one level of learning, to | another. This is more a process of remembering than learning, and |
C:8.16 | were you to accept this container as your home, you would not accept | another. |
C:9.17 | whom you observe seem to be separate as well. No one really believes | another to be as separate as he is. It always seems as if others have |
C:9.18 | Fear is nothing but a choice, and it can be replaced by choice of | another kind. |
C:9.22 | the body. That your sights are set on the care of the body alone is | another example of choosing an opposite for replacement. |
C:9.37 | is your definition of completion. What is missing in you is found in | another and together a sense of wholeness is achieved. |
C:9.38 | something for one part of yourself in one place and something for | another somewhere else. This one fulfills your need for friendship |
C:9.38 | stimulation. In one activity you express your creativity and in | another your prayerfulness. Like a diversified investment portfolio, |
C:9.41 | excited, or repelled. Here you watch the gladiators kill one | another for your amusement. Here is your notion of use displayed in |
C:9.42 | portrayal of individual desire. Slaves and masters but use one | another and the same laws bind both. Who is master and who is slave |
C:9.43 | seen as a bartering in which you trade your usefulness for that of | another. An employer has use for your skills and you have use for the |
C:10.2 | physical form. Joining is not the obliteration of one thing to make | another—joining makes each one whole, and in this wholeness one |
C:10.3 | consistent as a system. You cannot abandon one tenet and retain | another because by retaining part you retain all. This will lead to |
C:10.7 | Think of | another, a teacher or a parent, whose “voice” you hear as you go |
C:12.24 | hard to believe Creation itself can be benevolent and kind, or just | another name for love, but such it is. God is but creation’s starting |
C:13.4 | you will soon be ascribing some attributes to one spirit and not to | another, just to differentiate between them. The purpose here is to |
C:13.5 | love that washes over you from one may feel like courage, and from | another like gentleness, and while this is all part of what you are |
C:14.2 | in this seeking proclaim that one part of creation is better than | another part. You thus seek to fragment creation as you have |
C:14.19 | next is an exchange of sorts. Like two countries, one rich in oil, | another in grain, you set up dependencies that will keep you linked. |
C:14.26 | your own. And what you give to others you keep for yourself. Give | another specialness, and you keep it for yourself as well as see it |
C:15.4 | would not believe that your own desire for specialness or to make | another special could make a difference to many—or possibly even to |
C:16.1 | you felt from love only seemed to be available from one and not from | another. Love is not available from anyone in the way you think it |
C:16.5 | out. For judgment is what is required to make one special and | another not. |
C:16.12 | as foreign to you as is true love. You think forgiveness looks upon | another in judgment and pardons the wrongs you would enumerate. True |
C:16.25 | created the world of illusion in which you live, and so you think | another must be able to do it better. You no longer trust yourself |
C:17.2 | the space that you would fill as your own Self is held for you by | another part of your consciousness that has never left it. It is the |
C:18.11 | belief system can be changed, even when what is learned is shared at | another level. |
C:18.12 | or the “time” it takes for learning to pass from one level to | another through experience, for here learning is experienced in time. |
C:19.5 | securely in them. The first step in leading you to experience of | another kind is your willingness to accept that you are here to |
C:19.13 | one more layer to the unification of thought, and this brings up | another reason for our reliance on the heart. Thought, as you know |
C:20.7 | well, for an embrace, although it may begin with one reaching out to | another, concludes with mutuality, shared touch, a melding of one |
C:20.7 | concludes with mutuality, shared touch, a melding of one into | another. The embrace makes one of two. |
C:20.39 | All fear that what one gets means that less is available for | another is replaced with an understanding of abundance. Receiving |
C:20.42 | know that this is true or you may dwell in fantasies, desiring what | another has or some success, fame, or riches that seem impossible for |
C:20.45 | your feelings from expecting resistance to expecting willingness is | another key change that will lead toward wholeheartedness. When you |
C:21.2 | particulars. I repeat that relationship exists between one thing and | another and that it is in the intersection of parts that the holiness |
C:21.3 | need no judgment to tell you the difference between one thing and | another. You thus can begin to quit relying on your body’s eyes to |
C:21.5 | like action. At such times two strangers who are foreign to one | another might recognize that the other’s “heart is in the right |
C:21.7 | situation. You accept that your mind sees one truth and your heart | another, and you act anyway! You act without agreement or resolution. |
C:22.5 | image of a straight line passing through not one, but many layers of | another substance. |
C:22.12 | forces are bombarding you. These forces must pass through one or | another of your five senses—which you might think of collectively |
C:22.12 | You instead deflect them, using your mind, which might be considered | another layer, to send them to various compartments—or, continuing |
C:22.16 | be the same person in a laboratory? Are you still who you are when | another takes you into his or her mind and assigns meaning to you? |
C:23.2 | your separated self. For, as each of you has found as you have loved | another, the more you love and long to possess a loved one, the more |
C:23.7 | would not be other than you are. No matter how much you grow to love | another, that love does not cause you to want to be the other person. |
C:23.11 | the form required by the belief in the separated self. Belief of | another kind can foster the creation of form of another kind. |
C:23.11 | self. Belief of another kind can foster the creation of form of | another kind. |
C:23.13 | I repeat: Belief of | another kind can foster the creation of form of another kind. A |
C:23.13 | I repeat: Belief of another kind can foster the creation of form of | another kind. A wholehearted belief in the truth about your Self is |
C:23.14 | Belief of | another kind is what miracles are all about. It is what you are all |
C:23.26 | the key to unlearning. What you term as being in control is simply | another way of saying acting on old beliefs. As long as you attempt |
C:23.27 | the process of both unlearning and learning anew. This is but | another way of stating that which was stated in A Course in Miracles: |
C:23.28 | Looked at in | another way, this process has much in common with forgiveness. The |
C:23.29 | a learning objective? Yet how can you become a master of what | another would teach? Of lessons another would select? Your life must |
C:23.29 | how can you become a master of what another would teach? Of lessons | another would select? Your life must become your teacher, and you its |
C:25.7 | is synonymous with true service. True service does not look for what | another has to give or what another has that you might use. True |
C:25.7 | True service does not look for what another has to give or what | another has that you might use. True service recognizes God’s law of |
C:26.8 | we are life. I say we because we cannot live love apart from one | another. |
C:26.24 | chapter lead? What will the end be like? Was one event a mistake and | another a blessing in disguise? You seek to know your story’s table |
C:27.5 | as important seems at one time like a function of the ego, and at | another as a function of the divine. You become confused between the |
C:27.7 | and the divine. Life is not a matter of one living thing versus | another, but of the relationship between all living things. |
C:28.13 | and to how you are guided to respond to them. One will be a teacher, | another a student. The difference will be clear if you listen with |
C:29.13 | a schedule in terms of your perception of it. Your schedule is just | another way of saying your life, and an alternative view of how you |
C:29.22 | own: You claim not to own or to separate what you have from what | another has and then to call it special. You claim in order to |
C:29.23 | How can one’s talent cause | another to be less talented? How can one’s service deprive anyone |
C:29.26 | Service is but | another way of stating this law of creation, this unbroken chain of |
C:30.2 | Self, for some purpose other than your Self. Thus was service given | another route for being separated from the Self and your function |
C:31.14 | of your existence: that giving and receiving are one in truth. Put | another way, all this says is that in order to be your Self, you have |
C:31.33 | from them, what is truly occurring? How can this work? This is but | another aspect of giving and receiving being one in truth. Giving and |
C:31.37 | this is not the case is the relationship of teacher and student. | Another relationship that expects change and growth is that of parent |
T1:3.23 | and explained away. Surely to believe that where one miracle worked | another might be possible would be to have ideas of grandeur not |
T1:4.12 | of gift, the most obvious of which might be your children. | Another of which might be your talents. It is the idea of your |
T1:5.4 | of creation when such suffering occurs within it? But there is | another aspect that relates to the fear of union we spent much time |
T1:6.2 | and divine memory cannot help but produce a divine outcome. Said in | another way, prayer reproduces the truth and allows the truth to |
T1:8.10 | woman to join with man in order for new life to come forth, is but | another example of how your memory of creation was made to serve what |
T1:9.4 | reflects inner change. The growth of a new being within the womb of | another is a visible manifestation of gestation, which is the prelude |
T1:9.15 | position, think one’s way through, argue, manipulate, or chastise | another so that you feel better in relationship to the other in the |
T1:9.15 | first reaction might be one of self-pity, of making oneself or | another feel guilty, or of experiencing a sense of diminished |
T1:10.6 | example to your brothers and sisters, an example that says there is | another way. |
T2:1.7 | you would soon be struggling to maintain your peace. There is | another choice, and it lies within. |
T2:4.8 | all that one might attribute to the somewhat onerous onset of yet | another responsibility, another obligation. One set of thoughts |
T2:4.8 | to the somewhat onerous onset of yet another responsibility, | another obligation. One set of thoughts recognizes that something has |
T2:4.12 | This is not about the past and all those things that at one time or | another you thought would bring you fulfillment. This is about |
T2:4.17 | It is not a process of waiting until one thing is accomplished for | another to begin. What is happening now is happening in unison. As |
T2:5.1 | the life that this Course calls you to, we must also talk of | another aspect of being called. While we have concluded that when you |
T2:7.7 | belief of all to integrate into the living of your life. Each time | another thwarts you, you will be tempted to believe that giving and |
T2:8.3 | receiving as one. What you gain will take nothing from anyone. What | another is able to give you will take nothing from them, and what you |
T2:8.3 | give you will take nothing from them, and what you are able to give | another will take nothing from you. |
T2:8.6 | stay is not finite. You are not here to rest and gain strength for | another journey in search of something that is not available here. |
T2:9.1 | I ask you now to remember a time when you felt from | another the desire to help or to meet your needs. Do not think that |
T2:9.7 | than others is a fallacy of perception. Not one has more needs than | another. |
T2:10.2 | Thinking that needs can be met only in certain ways is akin to | another belief that has been replaced. This belief was first |
T2:10.7 | and level of experience. Yet no one can know more of the truth than | another, and no one can know less. |
T2:10.17 | of life as your coursework? Would you be any more willing to let | another choose your lessons for you? |
T2:12.9 | spoke within A Course of Love of relationship being not one thing or | another but a third something, this is what we speak of here again. |
T2:12.11 | occurs with the joining of many factors, one no more important than | another. While the Christ in you has been compared to the seed of all |
T2:13.5 | of our brothers and sisters to their return to unity. We call to one | another in gratitude. This is the attitude of the wholehearted, the |
T3:1.11 | in being a professional self in one instance and a social self in | another, a parent in one role and a friend in another, than you did |
T3:1.11 | and a social self in another, a parent in one role and a friend in | another, than you did in defining a past self, a present self and a |
T3:3.5 | past. Even your successes were often claimed to be at the expense of | another or to have come in spite of failings most severe. While |
T3:3.9 | quite this drastic, your thoughts might tell you that if you were in | another job, devoid of certain familial responsibilities, or the need |
T3:4.6 | that became the basis of all that came after it. You cannot make | another error such as this for it is the one error. Does it not make |
T3:4.7 | You can dismantle the ego and build | another in its place and this has at times been done in the |
T3:4.7 | the replacement of illusion with illusion, or one ego-self with | another. The training of this Course, while gentle in nature, has |
T3:6.3 | as well, as lack of reward in one instance and reward given in | another, is the cause of much of the bitterness that exists within |
T3:6.5 | is not evil but bitterness. You may believe that bitterness is just | another word, another label for the evil you have always been |
T3:6.5 | bitterness. You may believe that bitterness is just another word, | another label for the evil you have always been convinced existed in |
T3:6.5 | existed in the hearts of some, but even being that it is just | another word, it is one chosen to introduce an idea of such fallacy |
T3:7.7 | who looked, that treasures were to be found there. One found art and | another religion, one found poetry and another music, one seized upon |
T3:7.7 | there. One found art and another religion, one found poetry and | another music, one seized upon a single thought and through its |
T3:7.7 | single thought and through its extrapolation founded one science or | another. In all of the excitement the matter of the source of the |
T3:10.8 | Along with forgetting there is | another practice that will help you to become aware of this change. |
T3:10.16 | life of the body. They are lessons that will soon be translated in | another way. These lessons that will enter your mind and heart will, |
T3:13.10 | my day and no dire consequences will befall me from this action.” | Another act might be as simple as allowing yourself to freely spend a |
T3:15.5 | When attempting to give oneself or | another a new beginning, you often act “as if” you believe a new |
T3:20.6 | a situation in which you have observed the illness or suffering of | another. Sympathy is the most common observance in such a |
T3:20.10 | much calamity befall them as do “bad.” I am not calling you to just | another version of being good or mentally healthy, to exercises in |
T3:21.9 | subject to change and mean one thing to one person and one thing to | another. Illusion is symbolic. And what’s more it symbolizes nothing |
T3:21.23 | starting point and as can be surely understood, where one is willing | another may not be. |
T4:1.10 | learn through what is not of the curriculum because they have chosen | another means of learning. Means is what is being spoken of here. But |
T4:1.20 | through dissent. The good in which one believed became the evil that | another fought and in the contrast learning did occur and has |
T4:1.26 | will not want it for their identity but only will accept it until | another identity is offered. |
T4:2.11 | what they can achieve. One may desire to best a sporting record and | another to follow the first man into space and the one who desires to |
T4:3.14 | kept your form subject to the cycle of decay and rebirth. There is | another alternative. |
T4:4.17 | through death? What purpose would this Course serve if it were just | another preview of what to expect after you die? What difference |
T4:6.3 | scenario in which it appears that some live on one world and some on | another. But I say to you that any scenario that separates my |
T4:6.3 | that any scenario that separates my brothers and sisters from one | another and the one life-giving energy that unites us all will but |
T4:12.11 | Another thing that you will want to be vigilant of, dear brothers and | |
T4:12.21 | unity and relationship. Along with the creation of a new language, | another imperative creation with which to begin our new work is that |
T4:12.30 | unity and be communicated through our continuing dialogues with one | another. |
D:1.12 | of the old and the acceptance of the new. This occurs in one form or | another in the sacraments you have known as Baptism, Confirmation, |
D:2.11 | that each and every pattern will work in one instance and not in | another and that you make this judgment based upon the outcome. In |
D:2.11 | as the pattern failed to achieve the successful grade or outcome in | another instance. Thus what you have believed “works for you” is |
D:5.17 | gone unfulfilled that now that you are close you cannot bear to wait | another day, another hour. You want release from your prison now, and |
D:5.17 | that now that you are close you cannot bear to wait another day, | another hour. You want release from your prison now, and so you |
D:5.20 | harmony with the universe? As you can see, you are now approaching | another thought reversal. Fear not that your confusion will last, for |
D:7.3 | to be experienced individually before learning could be shared at | another level, and that levels are a function of time. We then talked |
D:7.9 | Matter is simply | another word for content, and need not be maligned. The content of |
D:9.4 | you have thought about this desire to know who you are in one way or | another all of your life without reaching the place of fulfillment |
D:11.2 | even as a great teacher? Am I but a giver of information from whom | another is capable of taking notes? You think it is only the content |
D:12.4 | associated with the spoken word. When you enter into dialogue with | another person, you listen, you hear, and you respond. This is |
D:12.8 | of “entering into” dialogue. When you enter into dialogue with | another person you “hear” what it is they have to say. You “hear” |
D:12.9 | Realize also that you do not consider it to be the “thinking” of | another that is shared with you in dialogue, but the thoughts. Thus |
D:12.14 | a situation in which you are involved, or about the situation of | another. Or they may be profound insights into your Self or the |
D:12.16 | this Course—that all doubt is doubt about yourself—is true. If | another challenges you, or if your own thinking challenges you, doubt |
D:13.4 | a divine “ray” of light descending and granting enlightenment. Take | another look at your Bible for many stories such as these, and you |
D:15.11 | rests all that is eternal, all that is real. What is real is but | another way of saying what is true. What is true is eternal life, not |
D:15.11 | life. There are no degrees of life. One form is not more alive than | another. All that lives contains the breath or wind of spirit, which |
D:15.15 | one time sailing—flying along with the wind at your back—and at | another time sitting still or seemingly bobbing along with no |
D:16.19 | are not real. They are no more real than the mirage of your future, | another aspect of the image you have held of yourself. They are no |
D:Day1.4 | If math is a stumbling block for some, a foreign language for | another, are these requirements waived? Let us just accept that |
D:Day1.11 | healing. Some think this power comes from one source and some from | another. You may think that, as long as the power is called forth, it |
D:Day1.15 | beloved. That you give your devotion to one religious tradition or | another matters not. That you accept that I am he who can lead you |
D:Day1.25 | of the story’s end. As a story is seen to move from one element to | another in an unbroken chain of events, so too is the story of |
D:Day1.26 | will tomorrow be the story of creation. A chain of events is merely | another way of saying cause and effect. The chain of events of |
D:Day3.3 | In the area of the body came | another form of learning about which you saw yourself as having |
D:Day3.11 | learned in order to advance yourself in the world in one way or | another. Since money or abundance is not a “given” for all, but only |
D:Day3.14 | have come, these ideas are still with most of you to one degree or | another. Even though you know these are false ideas, and in that |
D:Day3.49 | flowing to you. All that this period of bargaining represents is yet | another stage in your movement toward acceptance. It is still based |
D:Day3.58 | While you think of acceptance as just | another word, another concept, another trick of the mind, you will |

D:Day3.58 | While you think of acceptance as just another word, another concept, | another trick of the mind, you will not see it as the replacement of |
D:Day3.59 | of all or nothing. You cannot accept part of one reality and part of | another. You cannot accept, for instance, the compassionate and |
D:Day4.2 | one side are the temptations of the human experience, which is just | another way of saying all that you have learned; on the other side |
D:Day4.18 | been a tendency to challenge one world-view only to replace it with | another of no greater truth or value. My challenge has been reacted |
D:Day4.21 | This feeling of being misled is | another cause of your anger—one of the primary causes, in truth. |
D:Day4.50 | arrive at acceptance, nor to focus on acceptance of one thing over | another. You are not to label good or bad. Just to accept. Accept |
D:Day5.6 | of us. Yet not one of us expresses love in exactly the same way as | another. This is important to remember now as you begin to work with |
D:Day5.12 | first, a quite individual accomplishment, something one may have and | another may not. While this remains the case, you may desire to give |
D:Day5.18 | not more practice. You want relief and an end to effort, not | another lesson to learn that you will be told is not a lesson. Not |
D:Day5.18 | another lesson to learn that you will be told is not a lesson. Not | another cause for seeming effort in order to arrive at the |
D:Day6.28 | difficulty so many of you are currently experiencing in one way or | another. Your desire is where it belongs—here—in the passionate |
D:Day7.7 | Another condition of the time of acceptance that will be of great | |
D:Day7.12 | the devotion of holy relationship that we have already spoken of. | Another replacement is that of control with grace. This occurs as you |
D:Day8.18 | Another error can occur if you deny your feelings in favor of the | |
D:Day9.13 | This ideal image is intimately related with the time of learning in | another way as well. It is the epitome of learning, what you have |
D:Day9.25 | truth of who you are. You cannot express the beauty and truth of who | another is. You cannot express the beauty and truth of a future self. |
D:Day9.32 | past. In the past you moved quickly from one learning challenge to | another. You have just completed a monumental learning challenge and |
D:Day9.32 | going now, to use the momentum of this learning success to achieve | another. |
D:Day10.33 | of social activism, to causes, or to championing any one side over | another. Turn not to your thoughts but to your feelings and go where |
D:Day10.36 | and those who live upon it have been pursued separately from one | another and from God—until recently. Now unity is being sought and |
D:Day15.11 | be misused, to have access to this power in one instance and not | another as you move in and out of the state of Christ-consciousness |
D:Day15.15 | You are here to make one | another known and in so doing to know oneness. It will be less |
D:Day17.5 | While no one has more access to Christ-consciousness than | another, some exhibited more willingness to let that consciousness be |
D:Day17.9 | through teaching and learning and leading example lives. | Another way, that of Mary, was the way of creation, and was a |
D:Day19.16 | ways as intertwined circles existing in support and harmony with one | another. As those given specific functions fulfill those functions, |
D:Day20.3 | the unknown cannot be taught, laid out on a map, or shown to you by | another. |
D:Day22.3 | to avail oneself of the channeled or expressed universality of | another is a choice and another indicator of the uniqueness of |
D:Day22.3 | the channeled or expressed universality of another is a choice and | another indicator of the uniqueness of channeling. The universal is |
D:Day23.3 | surrendering the mist that was all that separated one world from | another. |
D:Day27.9 | Looking in one direction, you might see only darkness. Looking in | another, you might see the dawning of light. Opposites exist only as |
D:Day28.20 | constant that has not been affected by the variable of time. Said in | another way, eternity and time are part of the same continuum as are |
D:Day29.2 | conditions, at times complementing and at times opposing one | another. Just as mind and heart became one in wholeheartedness and |
D:Day29.4 | forward what already exists into the reality in which you exist. | Another way of saying this is bringing who you are into wholeness, |
D:Day29.5 | may have seen it as access to information or sensory experiences of | another kind, it is, in actuality, access to a state of being. |
D:Day30.5 | to not experience joining is to not experience wholeness. Stated | another way, the self cannot know the Self without joining with the |
D:Day32.7 | Another concept of God is that of Creator. This concept might have | |
D:Day32.8 | Another idea of God within the concept of a Creator God is of God | |
D:Day36.10 | It is the difference between all and nothing in relationship to one | another. Recall the example used earlier. There is no difference |
D:Day36.12 | have just kept being, kept making choices between one illusion and | another in your separate reality. A separate reality that cannot |
D:Day37.11 | Subtract any sum from | another and you will realize that subtraction results in a new |
D:Day37.17 | from which you are separate? You can imagine what it means to “know” | another person, to be a tree blowing in the wind, what it would be |
D:Day37.18 | not. They cannot know because they are not you. You cannot know how | another feels because you are not them. You can join in relationship |
D:Day37.31 | of your being is most revealed when you cooperatively join with | another or even with yourself. When you cooperatively join, you move |
D:Day38.3 | of our shared being, and enter into relationship with one | another. I ask you to turn your attention, I ask you to be attentive, |
D:Day38.4 | Being full of love for one | another is the beginning of extension, the end of withdrawal. It is |
D:Day38.6 | co-creator or friend. But call yourself mine. For we belong to one | another. |
D:Day38.9 | You are my own. We are the beloved when we are the beloved to one | another, when we are who I Am to one another. |
D:Day38.9 | when we are the beloved to one another, when we are who I Am to one | another. |
D:Day39.2 | we are. Individuated beings are who we are in relationship to one | another. |
D:Day39.12 | it is what you carry, the connection between one thing and | another. In this instance it is the connection between two |
D:Day39.37 | being in the constant creative tension of differentiating from one | another. |
D:Day39.47 | beings in union and relationship, we continuously create one | another. We create from the field of the possible which must include |
D:Day40.26 | be impossible. Because we are who we are in relationship to one | another. |
A.10 | is a natural desire to let the words of the Course enter you in yet | another way—the way of voice. Again it is not required nor even |
A.12 | to perceive. I ask you not to receive as one who does not have what | another has, as this is not a passing on of information that you do |
A.12 | you but to give yourself a chance to let the relief of not having | another task to apply your effort to fill you. I ask you but to give |
A.28 | important for facilitators and group members to be available to one | another if at all possible during this time, for what is being gained |

C:2.14 | What | answer then is left but that you do not see reality for what it is? |
C:3.20 | you be asked if you would have other than the love you would not | answer yes. What else is worth such cost, such suffering, so many |
C:9.21 | is respected. To replace the temporary with the temporary is not an | answer. |
C:9.22 | You may be thinking now that what I have just told you is not an | answer is precisely what the Bible has instructed you to do. I am |
C:11.16 | and that goes out to truth and not illusion. It is a call whose | answer will come to you quickly on the wings of angels, a fluttering |
C:12.2 | You feel a little duped at being told love is the | answer. You feel a little chastised to be told you know love not. You |
C:12.2 | You think it is typical of a spiritual text to tell you love is the | answer, as if it has not been said before. This message was preached |
C:12.2 | and still the world remains the same. How could this be the correct | answer when this is so? Life is too complicated to be solved by love. |
C:12.3 | love, and all of you believe you have evidence that it is not the | answer at all. What is your evidence? Your own failure to be happy |
C:14.12 | felt as if it was—could it prove anything but that love is no | answer, and surely not for you? |
C:16.2 | You may ask now why it doesn’t seem so, and the only | answer is that you do not want it to. You perceive but what you wish |
C:19.18 | of adjustment and thus of training before you can be aware of the | answer you will receive. It is clear you can ask for what you know |
C:25.23 | concern that is in need of appropriate action will suffice. When an | answer comes to you, acknowledge that it is an answer from your new |

C:27.1 | do all errors lie. For what quest can be fulfilled when the only | answer to life seems to be death? This is why and how my death and |
C:27.1 | be death? This is why and how my death and resurrection provided an | answer and an end to the need for answers. |
C:31.11 | again, your perception of your thoughts as yourself is the closest | answer to the truth that you were able, in your limited view of |
T1:2.3 | again. The questions you have asked concerning how love could be the | answer when it has been preached by so many for so long is answered |
T1:2.3 | it has been preached by so many for so long is answered here. The | answer lies in your response to love. To respond is to answer. You |
T1:2.3 | here. The answer lies in your response to love. To respond is to | answer. You have sought your “answer” everywhere, but here is where |
T1:2.4 | are the expression and extension of your true Self. They are the | answer of the Created to the Creator, the answer of the Self to God. |
T1:2.4 | true Self. They are the answer of the Created to the Creator, the | answer of the Self to God. |
T1:4.12 | You may | answer that there are many, even within this Course’s definition of |
T1:5.1 | they remain forever countless, has fear of God remained? The only | answer possible is because fear of the Self has remained. |
T1:9.14 | These may be difficult questions to | answer as your initial reaction and your response will likely have |
T1:10.14 | it takes, no matter what words you use to describe it, is your | answer to God and God’s answer to you. Peace is the inheritance I |
T1:10.14 | what words you use to describe it, is your answer to God and God’s | answer to you. Peace is the inheritance I left you. Peace of body, |
T2:4.19 | of response, you will begin to see that each new response is the | answer to a call that your heart alone can hear. As I have said, your |
T2:7.17 | they are legitimate thoughts and feelings? For some of you this | answer has changed greatly over time. But for many of you, you have |
T3:5.6 | could God’s love be if it were given to a people who suffered. The | answer was that God’s love was so mighty that he would even allow the |
T3:12.4 | self begin to realize the human experience outside of time? The | answer is thus: by changing the consciousness of the personal self |
T3:21.20 | The | answer too will seem contradictory, for the answer lies in realizing |
T3:21.20 | The answer too will seem contradictory, for the | answer lies in realizing that your former identity does not matter, |
T3:21.20 | Further, there are even two aspects to this contradictory seeming | answer. One is that your certainty regarding the identity of your |
T3:22.1 | Although the entire purpose of these Treatises is to | answer the question of what to do with what you have learned, chances |
T4:1.5 | Are you willing to be the chosen of God? All are asked. What is your | answer? |
T4:1.14 | The only | answer might seem to lie in the laws of evolution, the slow learning |
T4:1.14 | and adaptive process of man. Surely this would seem a likely | answer and one to assuage your guilt and uncertainty, your fear of |
T4:8.16 | know all there is to know about this one thing. This was the ego’s | answer to being a learning being—choosing something to learn that |
D:2.22 | Self and the consciousness shared by all for the creation of a new | answer, the answer to the only remaining question; that of how to |
D:2.22 | consciousness shared by all for the creation of a new answer, the | answer to the only remaining question; that of how to sustain |
D:4.31 | is neither the same nor different. You will see that there is one | answer, an answer different for everyone and yet the same for |
D:4.31 | the same nor different. You will see that there is one answer, an | answer different for everyone and yet the same for everyone. That |
D:4.31 | an answer different for everyone and yet the same for everyone. That | answer is acceptance of your Self. That answer is acceptance of the |
D:4.31 | the same for everyone. That answer is acceptance of your Self. That | answer is acceptance of the new you. |
D:5.16 | This is the | answer to the question of “What is next?” If there is nothing to |
D:5.17 | and that occur as this dialogue proceeds. What I am attempting to | answer now is your confusion concerning what is. This is crucial as |
D:5.18 | what I am addressing here. Release through death is no longer the | answer. Release through life is the answer. Release through |
D:5.18 | through death is no longer the answer. Release through life is the | answer. Release through resurrection is the answer. You have died to |
D:5.18 | through life is the answer. Release through resurrection is the | answer. You have died to the old. But surely it would seem easier in |
D:6.24 | acceptance. What might the body be called to accept? This is an easy | answer, as you have already called upon the body to accept the |
D:7.4 | of what you have learned. In order to experience the new you must | answer the call to let revelation and discovery, rather than |
D:11.9 | How might this relate to your desire to make a contribution and | answer your calling? How does this relate to your desire to know what |
D:11.12 | to a new way of seeing, for those willing to suspend disbelief, the | answer to the giving and receiving of these words will provide the |
D:11.12 | answer to the giving and receiving of these words will provide the | answer to the question your thoughts cannot quite comprehend well |
D:11.12 | cannot quite comprehend well enough to even articulate, much less to | answer. |
D:Day1.14 | In which the suffering and death that have obscured that love is the | answer are banished, rejected, and a new world of love accepted in |
D:Day3.29 | feel you have learned the secret of money, the secret of success: | Answer truly if you really believe this, or if you are merely |
D:Day3.33 | You might think that money earned from what you love to do is the | answer, just as you might think that money spent on the more lasting |
D:Day3.34 | and anger at this suggestion fall away. I know you expect a flowery | answer, and surely not one that will be a “one, two, three steps to |
D:Day3.34 | surely not one that will be a “one, two, three steps to abundance” | answer; but I will try to address you in an in-between tone, one that |
D:Day3.36 | the difference between information and wisdom, between finding an | answer and finding a way or path. Many have read the words of the |
D:Day3.39 | of the relationship that is unity. You perhaps desired an | answer that “came to you” through no process you had known before. We |
D:Day4.23 | The | answer to both come in the stated purpose of A Course of Love: |
D:Day4.51 | that you have not moved through the stages to full acceptance | answer now as to what is stopping you. Do you choose to dwell or to |

D:Day17.4 | always been aware that you exist and always been in search of an | answer as to why you exist. You have always been aware of the world |
D:Day19.6 | The | answer lies in the simple statement of as within, so without. By |
D:Day22.7 | The most simple, direct, and uncomplicated | answer is that of living love. The simple answer is that you must |
D:Day22.7 | direct, and uncomplicated answer is that of living love. The simple | answer is that you must express the unknown that you have touched, |
D:Day26.6 | internal compass. It will not necessarily know the answers as each | answer is sought, but if paid attention to, it will show you the way |
D:Day32.19 | Would this | answer your questions concerning how God is both different and the |
D:Day32.19 | concerning how God is both different and the same? Would this | answer your questions concerning God’s great power when compared to |
D:Day33.2 | Relationship is the interconnective tissue that is all life. The | answer of how to respond to each and every relationship—and |
D:Day35.2 | are one. Cause and effect the same. Fullness of being is thus the | answer that you have sought and that you have always possessed. |
D:Day39.2 | to your own discovery of who I Am to you. No one can give you this | answer, not even me, because this is the nature of who we are. |
D:Day39.4 | You may find it difficult to give yourself an | answer to who I Am to you in words, and even if you are able to do |
D:Day39.4 | and even if you are able to do so, you may not be able to share this | answer in a way that makes sense to anyone else. Let this tell you |
A.13 | are ready to question what you must. Now you are ready to hear the | answer that arises in your own heart or from the voice of the man or |
A.15 | them that unlike in other learning situations, there is no correct | answer or specific set of beliefs to be adopted. The student begins |
A.16 | students be misguided? Is there, in other words, perhaps no “right” | answer or correct interpretation, but “wrong” answers and inaccurate |
A.16 | each is not only capable but will inevitably receive the | answer and come to the understanding or interpretation that is |

C:P.4 | This is a basic question that was not adequately | answered in A Course in Miracles. While a course in miracles is |

C:32.1 | previously looked to those who do not know the difference for your | answers. Now you can see that you need to look to a different source. |
T1:3.22 | that has already occurred? You have far too many questions without | answers to choose a miracle. |

C:31.25 | Your ego thoughts can never share the truth with you nor with | anyone else. The ego invented the idea of “telling” the truth and |

T3:11.12 | sisters think they are. The house of illusion is not a hell to which | anyone has been banished. It can at times be a chosen hell, just as |
T3:15.4 | other than who they are. This is consistent with the truth. Yet who | anyone is, is not contingent upon whom they have represented |
T3:20.18 | from them, not from special ones of your choosing, and not from | anyone. Thus you are released from a burden never meant to rest upon |
T3:21.23 | It is not being said that | anyone should, or will, remain blind to the unity that exists beyond |
T4:1.9 | of coming to know. No choice is not such. No choice ever excludes | anyone from coming to know his or her chosen lesson. |

C:1.10 | hard enough. But because it is impossible. It is impossible to learn | anything on your own. Your determination to do so only blocks your |
C:1.13 | and only when you give up trying to reach it can you begin to learn | anything of value. You are complete only within God, where you |
C:2.10 | Your real Self is the Christ in you. How could it be | anything but love, or see with eyes other than those of love? Would |
C:3.1 | Love is. It teaches by being what it is. It does not do | anything. It does not strive. It neither succeeds nor fails. It is |

C:3.7 | it its causes and effects. If this can be so, how can the world be | anything but symbolic, with each symbol’s meaning chosen by you and |
C:4.22 | the mess that has been made, to attempt to restore order to chaos, | anything so that the angry ones feel less alone with what their anger |
C:4.23 | found. This difference is your salvation. Love is not like | anything or everything else that goes on here. And so your places to |
C:5.14 | separate. Within you is every relationship you have ever had with | anything. Outside of you is all that you have kept apart, labeled, |
C:5.30 | you feel no relationship to it. It is only in relationship that | anything becomes real. This you realize and so you strive to keep far |
C:6.19 | place of God Himself? It is because God is not separate from | anything that you cannot be. It is because God is not separate from |
C:6.19 | anything that you cannot be. It is because God is not separate from | anything that heaven is where you are. It is because God is love that |
C:7.11 | an excuse—or several excuses—for a bad day. Why should you give | anything to anyone when your day has already treated you so badly? |
C:7.15 | is indeed withholding, and in your world you know not how to claim | anything for yourself without withholding it from someone else. You |
C:9.11 | are merely saving time, and that your real Self has no need to use | anything at all. |
C:9.13 | as a capsule definition of your entire problem: You do not allow | anything that exists in your world, including yourself, to be what it |
C:9.30 | use. Without a user, would it have any function at all? Would it be | anything? An automobile abandoned and without a user might become the |
C:9.42 | on a larger scale, of what you live each day? This is all that | anything larger than yourself demonstrates to you. All society, |

C:11.9 | To think you must protect | anything from God is insane, and you know that this is so. But |
C:11.9 | insane to think that He who has given you everything seeks to take | anything away from you. While you still view yourself as a body, you |
C:12.5 | yet you know what tires you most is your inability to be certain of | anything. And you are tired indeed. |
C:13.8 | do not push them aside as interruptions in your day, but know that | anything that distracts you from the little self you think you are is |
C:14.12 | if it were real—as it surely felt as if it was—could it prove | anything but that love is no answer, and surely not for you? |
C:14.13 | a way. Never were you more sure of a relationship’s value to you. | Anything that could make you feel so joyous, so safe and warm and |
C:14.24 | makes it what it is to you. And as each purpose you have ascribed to | anything proceeds from the foundation of fear that built your world, |
C:14.25 | any closer to it than you are. While you realize not the purpose of | anything in truth, you cannot know love or your own Self. |
C:16.16 | judgment has not made the world a better place! If history proves | anything, it proves the opposite of what you would care to believe. |
C:18.14 | being, making it one with you. That you keep yourself from desiring | anything fully here is what makes this existence so chaotic and |
C:18.14 | A mind and heart in conflict is what keeps you from desiring | anything fully, and thus from creating. |
C:19.1 | a sense of self as separate, and you could not fully experience | anything without your free will. A separate self with a free will |
C:19.17 | less than any other number. Yet, on the other hand, when only one of | anything exists it is highly prized. God is thus “God” due, at least |
C:20.13 | has ended. A new time of no time awaits. Nothing is like unto | anything else. Likeness, like thingness, has been overcome with |
C:20.39 | from anyone. There is no limit to love and so there are no limits to | anything that flows from love. What one benefits from everyone |
C:20.43 | them as such, what you will receive from them is far grander than | anything you would before have wished to take from them. |
C:20.46 | Before you begin to resist the notion that you could have | anything to do with world peace, realize that you naturally have |
C:22.15 | under a microscope quite apart from their relationship to you or to | anything else. |
C:22.16 | from everything else within your world. Anyone wanting to learn | anything about you would be wiser to observe you as you are within |
C:24.4 | your heart. No lessons that do not touch your heart will accomplish | anything. The purpose of the final lessons are both unlearning and |
C:26.19 | It asks not that you make any decisions. It asks not that you do | anything new. This is an invitation from love to love. It asks only |
C:29.7 | one in unity. This is why you have no need to concern yourself with | anything other than this goal. Your realization of this goal’s |
C:31.27 | Being of one mind is being of one truth, and how can you be of | anything less? Only the ego sprang from a lie, the lie of separation |
C:31.34 | that this occurs, because only in relationship are you experiencing | anything. |
C:32.1 | the roles of teacher and learner. A teacher is first and foremost | anything that aids your remembering. Thus look not at the form in |
C:32.5 | by Love. Do not grieve your thoughts or believe in loss of | anything of any kind. Thus will all you have already received be |
T1:2.6 | issues to such a degree that it left you unable to respond purely to | anything. The so-called thinking of the ego-mind could be likened to |
T1:3.3 | The ego-mind sees nothing for what it is. The ego-mind sees not | anything but what it wants as gifts and even these it sees not as |
T1:5.10 | and thus the “you” whom you think you are, would not experience | anything without the presence of the heart. The heart is the only |
T1:5.10 | the thought system of the truth. How could a thought system based on | anything but the truth lead to anything but illusion? |
T1:5.10 | How could a thought system based on anything but the truth lead to | anything but illusion? |
T1:6.2 | state of the in-between. Only from within a state that is real can | anything happen in truth. |
T1:6.7 | each experience would begin and end and have no ability to relate to | anything else at all. Without memory, what you learned one day would |
T2:2.9 | your own willingness is necessary. Only in your own willingness does | anything exist because only in your willingness is the power of |

T2:6.5 | for what do you need time? Have you ever conceived of accomplishing | anything without taking into account the time that it will take? |
T2:8.3 | to be the most sincere form of relationship. Relationship based on | anything other than who you are is but a mockery of relationship. The |
T2:9.5 | contrast implied by the intent to hang on. The desire to hang on to | anything assumes that what you have is in need of protection or that |
T2:12.5 | or correction are the same thing. While you believe there is | anything other than your own thinking that is in need of correction |
T3:2.1 | What purpose would it seem to serve to have | anything exist only as a representation? We might think of this in |
T3:3.5 | have in turn blamed it as much as it blamed you, you never blamed | anything quite as much as you blamed yourself. |
T3:4.2 | habit. It asks not for monks or clones. It asks not that you give up | anything but illusion, which is the giving up of nothing. |
T3:8.3 | are as real to you as have been the thoughts of your ego-mind. While | anything other than the truth remains real to you, your house of |
T3:8.6 | both ancient and recent, that you think you would have given | anything to change? Do you look upon the ill and blame them for their |
T3:10.3 | that you are the cause it is not meant that you are to blame for | anything. Although many a child has been blamed for his or her |
T3:10.14 | new thought system, for you will have no desire to communicate with | anything less. |
T3:10.15 | of the mind and heart joined in unity. You will desire more than | anything for everyone you encounter to share this remembered |
T3:11.14 | I remind you here that you are not being asked to see | anything that is not the truth. This is why the word see is |
T3:11.15 | in a new way and to produce a new outcome. Do not be afraid to use | anything available within the house of illusion to promote the |
T3:16.2 | same as saying that you do not need to, and in truth, cannot, give | anything else or anything less. You do not need to give your effort |
T3:16.2 | that you do not need to, and in truth, cannot, give anything else or | anything less. You do not need to give your effort to this calling. |
T3:19.10 | in many ways, none of which will lead you to feel that you have lost | anything of value to you. |
T3:19.14 | heard of in the past without being moved to believe that they mean | anything at all about the nature of who you are. This is why no more |
T3:20.6 | these observations. Suffering, you would think, could not be seen as | anything but “bad.” You cannot feel anything but “sorry” for the one |
T3:20.6 | think, could not be seen as anything but “bad.” You cannot feel | anything but “sorry” for the one suffering. Yet you are always drawn, |
T4:1.7 | schooling. Some might look at this as lack of choice, saying that | anything that is mandatory allows no room for choice. In their |
T4:2.11 | That attention and respect is given to those who first achieve | anything of merit is but a way of calling all others to know what |
T4:8.7 | as perhaps you can envision from remembering your dreams in which | anything can happen without any need for you to “do” anything, and |
T4:8.7 | dreams in which anything can happen without any need for you to “do” | anything, and then becoming a form where expressing yourself depended |
T4:8.14 | It was only the ego that made this desire seem to be for | anything other than the purpose of expansion and enrichment of your |
T4:10.2 | life has been about. You cannot imagine how you will come to know | anything new, or be anything beyond that which you now are, without |
T4:10.2 | You cannot imagine how you will come to know anything new, or be | anything beyond that which you now are, without learning. Your |
T4:10.8 | The learning that was applied to | anything other than the Self could not help but have an outcome that |
T4:12.2 | rather than through teaching. As with all new means of doing | anything, this dialogue must have a starting point. This is it. |
D:1.24 | All that you see is you. You stand not separate and apart from | anything. |
D:6.11 | to learn because it seemed to provide proof. Yet if science teaches | anything, it teaches that what is proven can be disproved—and often |
D:7.11 | to it now. It is what it is, and nothing that it is, is deserving of | anything other than love. This call to love all of your Self is a |
D:12.15 | came into your mind, how seldom in the past you have been sure of | anything. You may have been amazed at this new authority, and you may |
D:12.15 | amazed at this new authority, and you may have desired more than | anything to have others realize that you really know something, that |
D:12.16 | to arise simply because you do not expect yourself to be certain of | anything, and certainly do not expect yourself to be certain about |
D:12.17 | You think it is perfectly sane to go through life without knowing | anything “beyond a shadow of a doubt,” without knowing anything with |
D:12.17 | knowing anything “beyond a shadow of a doubt,” without knowing | anything with certainty, when the reverse is what is true. It is sane |
D:14.3 | The Self is not separate from | anything, not from anything in the physical world or anything in the |
D:14.3 | The Self is not separate from anything, not from | anything in the physical world or anything in the state of unity. |
D:14.3 | separate from anything, not from anything in the physical world or | anything in the state of unity. This is why the key to unlocking the |
D:15.7 | story of what was once my tradition as an example. Before God “said” | anything, a mighty wind swept over the wasteland and the waters. The |
D:Day4.23 | know yourself as a being existing in union before you could know | anything else with the certainty you seek, for union is the treasure |
D:Day4.54 | to move forward with love and without fear and that there is still | anything that can hold you back. This is what the time of acceptance |
D:Day8.4 | feel do you quit labeling good or bad; only then can you deal with | anything from a place of peace. |
D:Day10.38 | flowing through you now find their expression. I desire, more than | anything, your happiness, your peace, and your acceptance of the |
D:Day15.22 | have a need for those boundaries. Thus you are not depriving them of | anything when you slip into observable states of being. There is a |
D:Day21.6 | one, then giver and receiver are also one. It is only you who can do | anything with the wisdom, guidance, or information that you receive |
D:Day32.15 | not be in relationship. If the natural world around you has revealed | anything to you of the nature of life and God, it has revealed to you |
D:Day35.12 | this way. A new world can only be created. To proceed relying upon | anything other than your power to create would be to only attempt to |
D:Day35.14 | It should not take much consideration to know that to create from | anything but love could have disastrous effects. This has been seen |
D:Day37.4 | you saw yourself as a separate being, and incapable of creating | anything except, just possibly, the relationship you would choose to |
D:Day37.16 | you know, because you believe you are separate and so cannot know | anything for certain save that for which you have experiential or |
D:Day37.17 | the only known can be the self. How could you possibly “know” | anything from which you are separate? You can imagine what it means |
D:Day40.5 | Love of itself has no nature. It does not do | anything. It just is, and its isness is what I hold, or anchor within |
A.17 | from the logic that tells them they must work hard to attain | anything of value. |
A.23 | There is no cause to delay the movement of the group or to feel | anything but gentleness toward those who cannot at this time accept |

C:21.7 | that your mind sees one truth and your heart another, and you act | anyway! You act without agreement or resolution. You act without |

C:8.17 | desire to return to. Yet it is where you are, and you could not be | anywhere else. Your home is here. You think this is incongruous with |

apart (63) |

C:1.15 | made this world for: to prove your separate existence in a world | apart from your Creator. This world does not exist. And you do not |
C:1.15 | from your Creator. This world does not exist. And you do not exist | apart from your Creator. Your yearning for love is what tells you |
C:2.16 | that to know with your mind is a learning process that stands | apart from all else that you are. Thus you can know without that |
C:2.16 | think you can love without love being who you are. Nothing stands | apart from your being. Nothing stands alone. All your attempts to |
C:3.23 | Think you not that love can be kept | apart from life in any way. But we begin now to take life’s judgment |
C:4.18 | your days or the way your days will end. Love is all that is set | apart in your perception from what you do here. You think this |
C:4.18 | in your perception from what you do here. You think this setting | apart gives love little relevance to other areas of your life. Love |
C:4.20 | A thing set | apart from the madness of the world is useful now. It may not be what |
C:4.20 | love is, but what love is has guided you in choosing to set love | apart from what you call the real world, from that which is, in fact, |
C:4.22 | with what their anger shows them. Love, they say, cannot be set | apart, and so they feel love not, nor see it either. Yet they too |
C:4.24 | you is the light that will show you what love is and keep it not set | apart from life any longer. Love cannot be brought to the world of |
C:4.25 | Take all the images of love set | apart that you have made and extend them outside love’s doors. What |
C:4.27 | This goal is set | apart from all others as love is here, a goal that touches not on |
C:5.5 | Relationship exists | apart from particulars. This is what you can’t conceive of and what |
C:5.7 | “I love this one” or “I love that,” yet you know that love exists | apart from the object of your affection. Love is set apart in a frame |
C:5.7 | love exists apart from the object of your affection. Love is set | apart in a frame not of this world. You hold objects up to capture |
C:5.8 | keep something for yourself away from all the rest. In setting love | apart, you recognized it had no place here; but you went on to set |
C:5.8 | you recognized it had no place here; but you went on to set yourself | apart and all else that you could find to define as valuable. You |
C:5.10 | must be recognized and understood, as must the urge to set love | apart from all the rest, for with understanding, these urges can be |
C:5.14 | ever had with anything. Outside of you is all that you have kept | apart, labeled, judged, and collected on your shelves. |
C:6.2 | Your brother does not exist | apart from you, nor you from your brother. This is reality. Your mind |
C:7.5 | too is one that can be used, for it recognizes that you are as | apart from this world as love is. The harsh realities of the world |
C:8.1 | your heart you have defined as your emotions. These thoughts stand | apart from the wisdom of your heart that we have already discussed— |
C:8.1 | that we have already discussed—the wisdom that knows to set love | apart, as well as your own Self. Emotions, the thoughts of your |
C:8.19 | way to achieve this, but as you observe you learn to hold yourself | apart from what you see. A reminder is needed here, however, a |
C:9.5 | look upon? Your body too was created for its usefulness. It sets you | apart, just as each item in your room is set apart by what it is |
C:9.5 | usefulness. It sets you apart, just as each item in your room is set | apart by what it is useful for. Ask yourself now: To whom is your |
C:12.17 | within you and do not splinter off and become something on their own | apart from you. Imagine this occurring and you will see how senseless |
C:14.10 | your idea of heaven. For what you require of love is that it set you | apart and make you special. Much more is demanded of those you love |
C:16.10 | love as being capable of neither. Love seems to operate on its own | apart from what your mind would bid it do, and this is why you fear |
C:17.14 | All that has proceeded from fear is nothing, and has no existence | apart from your own thoughts. |
C:20.17 | The world does not exist | apart from you, and so you must realize your compassionate |
C:20.17 | sharing the one heartbeat. The heartbeat of the world does not exist | apart from God. The heartbeat of the world is thus alive and part of |
C:20.20 | wholeness, of all, and for it not to exist? And how could it exist | apart from you? Oneness with Christ, dear brother and sister, is |
C:21.2 | you of what was said earlier concerning relationships existing | apart from particulars. I repeat that relationship exists between one |
