C:5.3 | I said | earlier, it is only through union with me that you learn, because it |
C:7.17 | All relationship exists in wholeness. The small examples used | earlier were meant to help you recognize relationship itself, |
C:9.10 | Look upon your body now as you | earlier looked upon the space you occupy. Take away the body’s |
C:18.23 | are feelings of love. This would seem to contradict what was said | earlier about the pain experienced from love and your willingness to |
C:20.36 | the complete change in this “if only” from those we have spoken of | earlier—the “if onlys” of fear. If you put half as much faith in |
C:21.2 | about parts and parts are all you see. I remind you of what was said | earlier concerning relationships existing apart from particulars. I |
C:22.18 | two kinds of meaning are being talked about. The first we talked of | earlier as the finding of truth. The second is what we are talking of |
T2:4.7 | your life. Let us look now at your reaction to the idea put forth | earlier of having a calling. |
T2:4.12 | you to what might have been and tells you that if you had but acted | earlier you would have had the life you’ve dreamed of and maybe it is |
T2:11.1 | who you are and even, in your own terms, a fact of your existence. | Earlier this was pointed out to you so that you would come to accept |
T3:10.7 | way that the simultaneous learning and unlearning that was spoken of | earlier will be able to be realized. You have passed through your |
T3:22.12 | I return you now to what I spoke of | earlier as creative tension, the tension that exists between |
T4:10.13 | As I said | earlier, some will not be willing to move out of the time of |
T4:12.13 | doubt that you would desire it to be? These questions relate to our | earlier discussion of temptations of the human experience. Are you |
D:4.20 | place and this way begins at the prison doors, begins, as we said | earlier, with acceptance of the new and denial of the old. Turn your |
D:5.9 | be exposed and the truth will be represented once again. As was said | earlier, this seeing of the truth is the first step as it is the step |
D:6.17 | of the thought reversal that now awaits your acceptance. As I said | earlier, we begin by applying this new attitude to the body. |
D:7.2 | our language somewhat to represent the new and restate what was said | earlier as “What you discover in unity is shared.” Learning does not |

D:17.14 | Let me return you to the questions that were asked of you | earlier, for they are even more pertinent now. Do you think desire |
D:17.15 | to your thinking, that you feel both fulfillment and desire. But my | earlier questions seemed to indicate that once fulfillment was |
D:17.17 | Desire asks for a response. | Earlier it was said that desire asks for a response while want asks |
D:Day2.14 | or even atonement here, for these have been thoroughly discussed | earlier. You have all been through the time of tenderness, the time |
D:Day3.39 | and certainty, a certainty you had previously lacked. When I said | earlier in this chapter that you are most comfortable learning |
D:Day4.36 | We talked | earlier of this as a time of fulfillment and desire. We acknowledged |
D:Day5.23 | Let’s return to the image of the healer that was discussed | earlier. While many will heal, all attempts to teach or learn “how |
D:Day6.1 | of Christ-consciousness, or unity, in form. As was said | earlier: To realize the state of becoming is to realize that an |
D:Day8.1 | of acceptance fresh in your minds and hearts, let’s return to that | earlier discussion. |
D:Day8.19 | temptation unlike the more pleasant temptations that were spoken of | earlier. This temptation stems from one thing only—from not living |
D:Day9.11 | As was said | earlier, all of your images are false images. Isn’t it possible that |
D:Day14.7 | for the self to be the fully invisible or spacious Self described | earlier. What you once stopped and held in a “holding pattern” to |
D:Day19.15 | is contained the key to creation of the new. It was spoken of | earlier as the act of informing and being informed, as the step |
D:Day23.3 | As we spoke | earlier of being a channel, today we speak of being a carrier. Your |
D:Day36.10 | and nothing in relationship to one another. Recall the example used | earlier. There is no difference between all and nothing without |
D:Day37.2 | that you are being does not define who you are any better than the | earlier example of your experiences would define who you are, because |
D:Day40.11 | no form, no conditions, no nature. It simply is. It was said | earlier that being is as Love is. This was a reference to my being, |
D:Day40.11 | being God, as in being human, being takes on attributes. As was said | earlier, this was meant to provide for the individuation process |
D:Day40.13 | Recall what was said | earlier: Christ-consciousness is the awareness of existence through |
A.30 | The impatience of the | earlier level may seem to have increased as these experiences will be |
earliest (3) |
||
C:P.28 | this is not true. Think back, and you will remember that, from the | earliest of ages you have known that life is not as it is meant to |
T2:11.8 | as has already been said, the ego, having been with you from your | earliest remembering, will continue to be with you, in the way that |
D:Day36.3 | describing every experience you encountered between your | earliest memory and the present moment and it would say nothing about |

C:10.11 | of joining. Magic is your attempt to do miracles on your own. In the | early stages of your learning, you will be tempted to play a game of |
T1:2.7 | of who you are through these same means was the fallacy that the | early teaching of A Course of Love sought to dispel. |
T2:3.4 | This was stated | early in A Course of Love and is returned to now for a specific |
T2:7.13 | Again I return you to the | early teachings of A Course of Love, teachings concerning your desire |
T3:22.14 | what you desire now, contrary to what you would have desired in the | early stages of this Course, is the Will of God. What you desire now |
D:Day4.1 | Remember here all the “arguments” that I needed to present in the | early part of this Course just to convince you that you are not alone |
D:Day4.7 | as well. Despite the creation story that symbolizes man’s journey, | early man was not a being who learned in the same way that you do. |
D:Day4.7 | early man was not a being who learned in the same way that you do. | Early man had no language. His mind was not full of thoughts. Early |

C:P.19 | or to God with your effort or your good intentions. You cannot | earn, and will not ever feel as if you have earned, the designation |
C:P.26 | of the parent for the child is the same. A son or daughter does not | earn the love that is given him or her, and this too is seen as |
C:P.29 | well, leave their learning and their teaching sit idly by while they | earn their living until the dust that has collected upon it obscures |
C:4.10 | another. God cannot love you more than your neighbor, nor can you | earn more of God’s love than you have, or a better place in Heaven. |

C:10.9 | will stay until you realize that all are good and that you cannot | earn more of God’s good graces than your brother. You will stay until |
C:15.5 | certain way, and you would not be special to that one if you did not | earn a certain amount of money. You would not be special if you did |
C:25.4 | but you cannot prevent it from occurring. You can attempt to | earn the love of those from whom you desire it, you can attempt to |
T3:13.5 | made to perpetuate the idea that you must pay for everything, or | earn everything that you would care to make your own, and then that |
T3:13.7 | this idea will be your choice. But the idea that you do not have to | earn your way nor pay your way must be birthed and lived by. While |

C:P.27 | that Jesus was God’s son before he was born, while he walked the | earth, and after he died and resurrected. Whether this is your belief |
C:P.37 | Jesus accepted his power and so brought the power of heaven to | earth. This is what the Christ in you can teach you to do. This is |

C:27.11 | yourself or your world, or even so that you can bring Heaven to | Earth. Although these are complementary goals, as stated before, |
C:27.11 | Just as you can look about and see that no two bodies on this | earth are exactly the same, the Self you are is a unique Self. A Self |
C:31.8 | world imitates truth as well. You live on one world, one planet, one | Earth. You may live on different continents, different countries, |
C:31.8 | different countries, various cities, but all of you rely on the one | Earth as part of a sameness and interdependence you accept. You are |
C:31.8 | a sameness and interdependence you accept. You are aware that this | Earth rests in a cosmos beyond your comprehension, and that the |
C:31.8 | your comprehension, and that the cosmos too is something that the | Earth and all on the Earth are part of. You believe fully that you |
C:31.8 | and that the cosmos too is something that the Earth and all on the | Earth are part of. You believe fully that you are inseparable from |

D:15.9 | What I have left out of this story, the formless wasteland, the | earth and the water that the wind first swept across and upon which |

D:16.3 | through, a relationship did not form. But as can be easily seen, the | earth is no longer a formless wasteland. Form was animated with |

C:3.7 | you remain the maker of your world, giving it its causes and | effects. If this can be so, how can the world be anything but |
C:7.9 | Let us return now to what you would withhold, and see the | effects that this withholding has upon yourself and the world that |
C:7.10 | Your withholding takes on many forms that nonetheless are merely | effects of the selfsame cause that keeps truth separate from |
C:7.21 | your hand, your body and another, the actions that you do and the | effects they seem to cause. All of these relationships are based on |
C:10.31 | despite your determination not to do so. Once you begin to feel the | effects of the experiment you will also encounter fear, especially if |
C:11.14 | of cause and quit worrying about effect. For now what you desire are | effects, without realizing cause must shift to change the effects you |
C:11.14 | desire are effects, without realizing cause must shift to change the | effects you would have come about. This matters not at this point. |
C:14.16 | Within the actions and interactions of your lifetime lie all the | effects you would hope to have on what remains here. Without you, the |

C:P.13 | distant and unreal as a mirage. All that you retain is a belief in | effort and a struggle to be good and to do good, a belief that |
C:P.19 | intentions so often fail to come to be at all, and why, when every | effort has been made, the outcome seldom seems worth the effort. You |

C:P.19 | the effort. You cannot earn your way to heaven or to God with your | effort or your good intentions. You cannot earn, and will not ever |
C:1.10 | because it is only in union with me that you are your Self. All your | effort is based on disbelief of this truth, and your attempts to |
C:1.10 | attempts to prove that this truth is not the truth. All that this | effort brings you is frustration. All your seeming success from this |
C:1.10 | effort brings you is frustration. All your seeming success from this | effort brings you is pride to offer to your ego. This gift your ego |
C:1.14 | are well aware you will not win the game you play here, you see the | effort to do so, no matter how futile, as being that which makes up |
C:5.22 | of life a test, believing that you can pass or fail through your own | effort. Yet the more you struggle to do so on your own, the more you |
C:5.22 | you do not want to admit that your efforts are futile. You cling to | effort as if it is the way to God, not wanting to believe all effort |
C:5.22 | to effort as if it is the way to God, not wanting to believe all | effort is in vain or that a simple solution exists. A simple solution |
C:5.22 | little value. The individual, you reason, is made through all this | effort and struggle and without it would not be. In this you are |
C:6.10 | you to shake your head. How can it be for you if you cannot put in | effort to attain it? And even if it were so, what then? Some, you |
C:6.17 | Those who could not change the world one iota through their constant | effort, in peace create the world anew. |
C:7.5 | for it is the primary thought by which you live your life. Your | effort goes into maintaining this illusion that what you are must be |
C:9.7 | and gentleness. A desire to know everything but only through its own | effort, a desire to see everything but only through its own eyes, a |
C:10.7 | therapy to still the negative messages that you hear, and after much | effort succeeded at replacing what was negative with messages of a |
C:10.9 | of your separated self wanting something for itself and all its | effort. This is but a stage you will pass through, though some may |

C:17.11 | that is then yours to keep? What have you purchased with all your | effort to make amends for your wrongdoing? You have but purchased |
C:20.47 | peace. You can barely keep your personal concerns in order. Your | effort to do so is all that stands between you and chaos. |
C:22.12 | no other access. These forces must then be directed. Often great | effort is expended keeping these forces from piercing your heart, the |
C:26.9 | not accept that happiness as well as meaning is due you through no | effort of your own. Scenes of your life play through your mind that |
C:26.10 | and your striving. You find it almost impossible still to believe | effort is not called for—that what your heart but wishes for could |
C:32.4 | you to your Self. Think not. This Course requires no thought and no | effort. There is no prolonged study and the few specific exercises |
T1:1.5 | that of separating illusion from the truth. This act will require no | effort for what you have learned in this Course has prepared you for |
T1:2.2 | so distinct and separate and which ranged from fear, to struggle, to | effort, to control and protection, can all now be seen as the product |

T3:3.3 | fall somewhere in between, living a life full of good intentions and | effort and being surprised neither by what seems to work nor what |
T3:3.9 | idea that you are not good enough or that you do not want to put the | effort into being good enough. Like a person who believes she has a |
T3:4.1 | only way to learn a new curriculum. This Course will not call you to | effort of any kind. It will not tell you to leave behind your |
T3:16.2 | give anything else or anything less. You do not need to give your | effort to this calling. You do not need to struggle to create the new |
T3:16.3 | from the old. If this were possible, you would indeed be called to | effort and to struggle, to planning and to a state of knowing that |
T3:16.3 | without changing their nature in the slightest measure. All the | effort of the ego has not brought an end to suffering or strife, nor |
T3:20.13 | you work toward? No. This is not your work. This is not about your | effort. This is about your observance. Your observance of the laws of |

T3:22.14 | by your effort and the time that it will take you to, through your | effort, create the desired outcome. Observation of what you desire is |
T4:2.12 | and that those who follow in time will do so more easily, with less | effort, and with even greater success. They may consider themselves |
T4:3.5 | a Self of love despite your fear, fear has thwarted your every | effort and caused the very effort that has continued the cycle of |
T4:3.5 | your fear, fear has thwarted your every effort and caused the very | effort that has continued the cycle of fear. To have to try to be who |
T4:3.6 | subject to the tests of time. Thus did the world become a world of | effort with all things in it and beyond it, including God, weighed |
T4:3.7 | will not be judged by it. All judgment is the cause of fear and this | effort to weigh love’s strength against fear’s veracity. While you |
T4:7.4 | envision, imagine and desire without judgment. It will not take the | effort of their bodies, but the freedom of a consciousness joined in |
T4:12.18 | than throwing out the old and beginning again? And doing so without | effort, without struggle. What could be more looked forward to than |
D:2.1 | within this willingness an ability to receive and left behind your | effort to “learn” this Course, began the work that is being continued |
D:10.3 | when you also think that it is your hard work and diligence, your | effort and struggle, that bring the expression of these givens |
D:10.3 | in error and limit your expression in much the same ways that the | effort of teaching and learning limits them. It is your joyous |
D:14.8 | than receiving, when you believe you have cause for stress and | effort rather than for just being open to what comes. |
D:14.10 | incremental and discovery is not. Learning took place in parts in an | effort to lead to wholeness. Discovery comes to you in wholeness. So |
D:15.23 | hard work is done. What you gain here you gain from what is beyond | effort and beyond learning, and from the maintenance of the state in |

D:Day3.28 | progress through effort, and just as assured of ruin through lack of | effort. |
D:Day3.59 | accept that in the reality of unity all things come to you without | effort or striving except money. You cannot accept that you no longer |
D:Day4.8 | means of access to all that was available to you, but not through | effort any more than breathing was designed to be effortful. Learning |
D:Day4.15 | not learned. We have spoken of ideas that were not gained through | effort. We have spoken of these things to begin to familiarize you |
D:Day5.18 | immediate results, not more practice. You want relief and an end to | effort, not another lesson to learn that you will be told is not a |

D:Day5.22 | No longer will it meet the road-block of your thinking, your | effort, your attempts to figure out how to do it and what it all |

D:Day5.22 | would give in which the ego once made its bid to claim ownership. | Effort, as translated by the ego, was about turning everything that |
D:Day5.22 | Obviously, union is not about this. While the ego is gone, | effort remains, and while it remains, you will not realize full |
D:Day7.5 | during the time of learning was not one of support but one of | effort. You must accept, now, that the pattern of learning is an |

D:Day16.11 | most likely going to be bad, and then you “think” that through your | effort or control you can alter the situation for the better. Only |
A.4 | new way. You are thus instructed not to apply your thought and your | effort, your usual means of learning, to this Course of Love. This |
A.4 | not for the mind but for the heart. It is not a way of thought and | effort but a way of feeling, of ease, and of direct relationship. |
A.4 | provided in A Course in Miracles. While you continue to put | effort into learning what cannot be learned, as you continue to see |
A.5 | your attachment to learning through the application of thought and | effort that creates the perception of this Course’s difficulty. Thus |
A.7 | understanding, without grasping for meaning, without applying the | effort you are used to applying to study, you begin the |
A.12 | a chance to let the relief of not having another task to apply your | effort to fill you. I ask you but to give yourself a chance to forget |
A.18 | for ease is more than some egos are willing to accept. To give up | effort for receptivity is more than some can accept. Why? Because it |

D:Day4.8 | but not through effort any more than breathing was designed to be | effortful. Learning was designed, like the intake of breath, to be |

C:P.4 | Course in Miracles. While a course in miracles is meaningless to the | ego and unnecessary to spirit it would seem to have no audience at |
C:P.4 | states that exist. Since it is impossible to be part spirit and part | ego, assuming there would be such a state in which learning could |

C:P.9 | to protect it from the ego’s reach are valiant but unnecessary. The | ego cannot claim the glory that is yours. |
C:P.10 | when it is in reach is every bit as insane as belief in the | ego. Ask yourself what it is that stops you. As humble as you seem to |
C:P.10 | As humble as you seem to be in your choice, you are still letting | ego make your choice. This is not humility but fear. |
C:P.14 | you have not awakened but still are caught in the nightmare your | ego has made. By choosing to reject yourself you have chosen to try |
C:P.15 | confused yourself further by accepting that you are two selves—an | ego self represented by the body—and a spirit self that represents |
C:P.15 | in which you can believe but not take part. You thus have placed the | ego at odds with spirit, giving the ego an internal and invisible foe |
C:P.15 | part. You thus have placed the ego at odds with spirit, giving the | ego an internal and invisible foe to do battle with. This was hardly |
C:P.15 | it is damaging. For sooner or later in this lopsided battle, the | ego will win out. The spirit as you have defined it is too amorphous, |
C:P.20 | selflessness to self because this is your chosen way to abolish | ego and to please God. This is not unlike the attitude of a good |
C:P.22 | of God, prolonged interest in self can further entrench the | ego. |
C:P.24 | in you is also still and ever present. But the weakening done your | ego by whatever learning you have done has left room for strength, a |
C:P.24 | strength that grows, and grows impatient with delay. It is not your | ego that grows impatient for change, for your ego is highly invested |
C:P.24 | delay. It is not your ego that grows impatient for change, for your | ego is highly invested in things remaining the same. It is, rather, a |
C:P.42 | your willingness is mighty? Only because you have not vanquished the | ego. You learn and then you let the ego come and take all you have |
C:P.42 | you have not vanquished the ego. You learn and then you let the | ego come and take all you have learned from you again and still |
C:P.43 | You were your Self before you began your learning, and the | ego cannot take your Self from you but only can obscure it. Thus the |
C:P.43 | it. Thus the teachings you need now are to help you separate the | ego from your Self, to help you learn to hear only one voice. |
C:P.44 | so betray you. We take a step away from intellect, the pride of the | ego, and approach this final learning through the realm of the heart. |

C:1.10 | this effort brings you is pride to offer to your ego. This gift your | ego demands is not worth the price you pay. The price of this gift is |
C:1.13 | of your pity. Yet you do not realize that this is the state your | ego has you endlessly striving to achieve. Your ego would have you |
C:1.13 | is the state your ego has you endlessly striving to achieve. Your | ego would have you believe that only when you need no one to achieve |
C:2.9 | and yet you constantly forget. This forgetting is the work of your | ego. Your true Self does not want to forget, and cannot for even the |
C:2.17 | mind rebels. Your mind rebels because it is the stronghold of the | ego. Your thought system is what has made the world you see, the ego |
C:2.17 | the ego. Your thought system is what has made the world you see, the | ego its constant companion in its construction. |

C:2.19 | Just as the Holy Spirit can use what the ego has made, the | ego can use what the mind has learned but has not integrated. Until |
C:2.19 | Once you are what you have learned, there is no room in which the | ego can exist and, banished from the home you made for it, it slowly |
C:2.19 | the home you made for it, it slowly dies. Until this happens, the | ego takes pride in what the mind has acquired, even unto the greater |
C:3.22 | depending on the tenacity of your thoughts, which, led by your | ego, would throw logic in love’s way. Some others might use their |
C:4.15 | would mean, an ideal that changed over time. Those most bound by the | ego might think of stature and of wealth, of physical beauty and the |
C:8.25 | systems: the thought system of God, and the thought system of the | ego or the separated self. The thought system of the separated self |
C:9.30 | announces that his body is not within his control. What is your | ego but an imaginary friend to you? |
C:10.17 | many has seemed to be “Would you rather be right or happy?” Only the | ego would choose being right over happiness. As you observe your |
C:13.10 | Your | ego will strongly resist your attempts to listen to your heart, and |
C:14.28 | of love, of innocence and of joy, threatens your specialness, your | ego, your separated self who quickly rushes in with love’s |
C:20.3 | here. You have given up the vision of your eyes and the “I” of your | ego. You are loosed of bounds, no longer a thing of beauty, but |
C:20.46 | to believe in your ability and mightiness. Remember not your | ego concerns and remember instead the warmth of the embrace. Remember |
C:23.8 | rather than as a being existing in relationship. This comes from | ego rather than from the true Self. |
C:25.20 | can take no credit for your life. Wanting to take credit is of the | ego, and at this stage the desire to create may be linked with ego as |
C:25.20 | the ego, and at this stage the desire to create may be linked with | ego as well. Your personal self will be looking for a place in which |
C:27.5 | the self as important seems at one time like a function of the | ego, and at another as a function of the divine. You become confused |
C:29.3 | of being 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 |
C:31.11 | all your thoughts and given them an identity we have called the | ego. Without dislodging your belief in your ego as yourself you will |
C:31.11 | we have called the ego. Without dislodging your belief in your | ego as yourself you will never realize your true identity. |
C:31.12 | by coming to a better understanding of the heart, or love. How the | ego becomes dislodged matters not. What matters is where you place |
C:31.14 | The | ego is that part of yourself that clings to the idea of separation, |
C:31.16 | is just a small portion of yourself you share, the portion that your | ego has deemed safe, acceptable, presentable. The portion that your |
C:31.16 | ego has deemed safe, acceptable, presentable. The portion that your | ego has deemed will cause you no risk. It is the ego that asks: Are |
C:31.16 | portion that your ego has deemed will cause you no risk. It is the | ego that asks: Are you certain that if you share that feeling, you |
C:31.16 | that if you try something new, you will still be accepted? It is the | ego that deems honesty a game; the ego that you let decide upon your |
C:31.16 | will still be accepted? It is the ego that deems honesty a game; the | ego that you let decide upon your truth. For what you live is what |
C:31.25 | Your | ego thoughts can never share the truth with you nor with anyone else. |
C:31.25 | can never share the truth with you nor with anyone else. The | ego invented the idea of “telling” the truth and using it as an |
C:31.25 | able to keep truth a secret, one of the most ridiculous ideas of the | ego thought system. |
C:31.27 | is being of one truth, and how can you be of anything less? Only the | ego sprang from a lie, the lie of separation that created the |
C:31.35 | extension of mind into a realm in which experience can occur. Your | ego has made of this something different than it is. Rather than |
C:31.35 | than extension of mind, your experience has become a projection of | ego. This can change. |
T1:1.9 | A mind and heart joined in union abolishes the | ego. The ego-mind was what was once in charge of all your thoughts. |
T1:1.9 | ego-mind was what was once in charge of all your thoughts. Since the | ego is incapable of learning the ego-mind had to be circumvented in |
T1:4.8 | The ego-mind, in its imitation of creation, put the “you” of the | ego or the body at the center of its thought system and from this |
T1:5.10 | is the only cause of your experience here. When released from the | ego thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you |
T1:9.12 | In the broadest of terms, this is already happening. As the | ego has become threatened and allowed the coming of guidance, males |
T1:9.12 | both have begun to work with the parts of themselves over which the | ego has the least control. For males this has most often meant a |
T1:9.12 | a turning away from the intellectual realm, which was ruled by the | ego, to the realm of feelings. For females this has most often meant |
T1:9.13 | ask you to cull from your own recent experience. What has caused the | ego to become more apparent to you as you have learned this Course? |
T1:9.13 | feelings called into question or your ideas? And what guise did the | ego take as it rallied to your aide? Did it require you to retreat or |

T2:1.3 | of the ego. We will instead assume that you have moved beyond these | ego concerns and explore the realm of internal treasures. |
T2:1.4 | Those of you who have moved beyond the realm of the | ego, in your fear of returning to it, often turn away from internal |
T2:1.4 | internal treasures that you believe, when realized, might feed the | ego. Despite many observations within this Course regarding desire, |
T2:1.13 | Ego desires cause one to think of a grand piano. Thoughts joined in | |

T2:7.6 | This source is the ego. Even now, the | ego will take every opportunity that arises to prove to you that |
T2:7.6 | should be resisted. As long as you continue to listen to your | ego you will not understand giving and receiving as one and will not |
T2:7.19 | learn to discriminate, to separate the false from the true, for your | ego thoughts cannot long abide in the holy place of your heart. Then, |
T2:9.1 | that this desire is not present in all relationships. It is only the | ego that stands between desire and the meeting of desire, needs and |
T2:9.2 | are many other means of practice that assist you in bypassing your | ego mind. Some practices more commonly thought of as tools might be |
T2:9.2 | mind such as affirmations. These tools are all means of releasing | ego mind and inviting the one mind, or unity into the present moment. |
T2:10.8 | your ability lies in the Christ in you. You might think of the | ego as the hand that swats away this knowing. |
T2:10.9 | The | ego is the teacher you have relied upon when you have relied upon |
T2:10.10 | the learner here. What need is there for a computer brain or for the | ego to be teacher when the learner in you is the all-powerful? The |
T2:10.10 | knowing that already exists, the memory that is swatted away by the | ego. |
T2:10.12 | But as long as you continue to attempt to learn with your | ego, or in other words, as long as you would continue to attempt to |
T2:10.13 | words, by ending the separated state which is the state in which the | ego exists. The end of the separated state or the ego, is the |
T2:10.13 | state in which the ego exists. The end of the separated state or the | ego, is the beginning of your ability to hear only one voice, the |
T2:10.16 | your desire for a static state would make you rather listen to your | ego as it prescribes learning for certain circumstances that would be |
T2:11.2 | you now know that struggle of any kind alerts you to the presence of | ego, you will continue to do battle with the ego rather than leaving |
T2:11.2 | you to the presence of ego, you will continue to do battle with the | ego rather than leaving it forever behind. |
T2:11.3 | Doing battle with the | ego has become the preoccupation of many gifted and learned people. |
T2:11.3 | battle that in your imaginings has extended even to the angels. The | ego is the dragon that must be slain, the evil of the despot to be |
T2:11.4 | a peace that begins and ends with ceasing to do battle with the | ego. As the ego has been the known identity of your existence until |
T2:11.4 | that begins and ends with ceasing to do battle with the ego. As the | ego has been the known identity of your existence until now, it will, |
T2:11.4 | be of service to you and your expression, there is no service the | ego can do you. The ego is the one untruth, given many names and many |
T2:11.4 | you and your expression, there is no service the ego can do you. The | ego is the one untruth, given many names and many faces and the only |

T2:11.7 | that all that is real is shared does the ego lose its power. The | ego was made from the belief in separation and all that followed from |
T2:11.7 | relationship. Separation is all that opposes relationship, and the | ego is all that opposes your true identity. |
T2:11.8 | Yet, as has already been said, the | ego, having been with you from your earliest remembering, will |
T2:11.10 | yourself and your world will be difficult you are listening to your | ego. The Christ in you knows not of difficulty. |
T2:11.12 | separation without relationship, then the image of yourself the | ego has put forth would have been a true image. But as life cannot |
T2:11.12 | choice was not available and did not overturn the laws of God. The | ego is but your belief that this has occurred; that what could never |
T2:11.14 | have given your relationship with your separate identity the name of | ego. Here, we are asking you to choose the one real relationship and |
T2:11.15 | of doing battle can only remain if you remain convinced that the | ego is real. As long as you believe that the ego is real, you will |
T2:11.15 | convinced that the ego is real. As long as you believe that the | ego is real, you will feel as if there are two identities that exist |
T2:11.15 | will never actually be a battle going on between Christ and the | ego, but you will perceive that such battles exist. You will be prone |
T2:11.15 | self with Christ acting as conscience and defender of good and the | ego acting as devil and defender of evil. This is nonsense, or but a |
T2:11.17 | I have said that the | ego will remain with you as the identity you have learned since birth |
T2:11.17 | While you have learned much here, you may be thinking that your | ego is still very much with you, and wondering, if you have not yet |
T2:12.11 | the relationship of all that would bring the seed to fruition. The | ego could be here compared to a gardener who believes that the seed |
T2:12.11 | light and air, the seed would but remain a source of struggle. The | ego would hang on to what is already accomplished within you, never |
T2:12.11 | it express, through relationship, all that it is. As valuable as the | ego would tell you that you are, it still would thwart you being who |
T2:13.6 | that the seriousness with which you once looked at life is of the | ego. Drape your persona in a mantle of peace and joy. Let who you are |
T3:1.1 | represented an ego-self who you believed yourself to be. Now the | ego has been separated from the personal self so that you may claim |
T3:1.3 | The false representation of the | ego as the self is what has led to the world you see. A true |
T3:1.6 | You who have spent most of your life representing the | ego have but given a face to illusion and made it seem real. When I |
T3:1.6 | and made it seem real. When I say that you have represented the | ego, what I mean is that the personal self, as represented by your |
T3:1.9 | To have believed that the personal self, as a representation of the | ego, was who you were, was an illusion that blocked awareness of your |
T3:1.13 | as this self has been so long bound to the ego-self. Even with the | ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns of the ego’s thought |
T3:2.5 | While you have believed you are the self of the | ego, you have believed in a need to both glorify the self and |
T3:2.6 | self can begin to represent the truth for it leaves untruth, or the | ego, behind. It is only this one, unaltered Self that is the truth of |
T3:3.1 | you. What cannot be recognized or known cannot be loved. While your | ego has not been loveable, you have always been. Here is where you |
T3:3.2 | characteristics are nothing more than a persona that has served the | ego faithfully. All of your traits have been chosen either in |
T3:3.2 | they be in accord or in opposition, their source has still been the | ego. These traits, whether you see them as good or bad or somewhere |
T3:3.10 | but who you are. All that was ever other than who you are was the | ego. The ego is gone. The ego was simply your idea of who you were. |

T3:4.4 | The ego made such ideas necessary for the idea of the | ego was “wrong” or inaccurate. The only way to bring that inaccuracy |
T3:4.5 | with a foundation that would not support it was the folly that the | ego made of life. The only way for such an error to be seen as an |
T3:4.7 | You can dismantle the | ego and build another in its place and this has at times been done in |
T3:4.7 | as in military training, or in cases of great abuse when a second | ego personality is developed to save the first. The ego has also been |
T3:4.7 | when a second ego personality is developed to save the first. The | ego has also been dismantled and rebuilt over time and been seen as |
T3:5.1 | it rush to find the easiest and most available replacement (the | ego or that which has become familiar, if not known). While few of |
T3:5.1 | before reached the emptiness caused by the complete absence of the | ego, just as few of you have never felt some sort of absence. All the |
T3:5.8 | series of generations passing. What this means is that in each the | ego will die and the Self be reborn to life eternal. Without rebirth |
T3:6.4 | still in the process of learning that your Self is not vengeful. The | ego has given you many reasons to be distrustful of your Self, |
T3:6.4 | Self, beginning with the idea of your abandonment here. Since the | ego is a chosen self and a learned self, there has always been just |
T3:6.4 | the ego’s thought system to keep within you the idea of a self the | ego is not. Thus has the ego had a self to blame for everything, |
T3:6.4 | to keep within you the idea of a self the ego is not. Thus has the | ego had a self to blame for everything, including your very |

T3:6.5 | in its destructive potential. Bitterness is to your heart what the | ego has been to your mind. It is the one false idea that has entered |
T3:6.5 | the human and the divine. It exists not in some but in all, as the | ego has existed not in some but in all. Like the ego, it has not |
T3:6.5 | but in all, as the ego has existed not in some but in all. Like the | ego, it has not caused you to be unlovable or unrecognizable. But it |
T3:6.5 | you to be unlovable or unrecognizable. But it has become, like the | ego, so much a part of your reality that it must, like the ego, be |
T3:6.5 | like the ego, so much a part of your reality that it must, like the | ego, be consciously left behind. |
T3:7.2 | to see the power of thought. If you can believe that you created the | ego with a thought or an idea, you can see where the power of thought |
T3:7.5 | that made you incapable of representing who you are in truth was the | ego. The only thing within the human experience that deprived the |
T3:7.5 | experience that deprived the human experience of meaning was the | ego. Thus, with the ego gone, you are perfectly capable of |
T3:7.5 | deprived the human experience of meaning was the ego. Thus, with the | ego gone, you are perfectly capable of representing the truth of who |
T3:8.3 | bitterness has been a source of resistance as strong as that of the | ego and more deeply felt. As I have said, bitterness is to your heart |
T3:8.3 | deeply felt. As I have said, bitterness is to your heart what the | ego has been to your mind. Thus bitterness has to do with your |
T3:8.3 | has to do with your feelings more so than your thoughts. The | ego but played upon these feelings, using them as building blocks for |
T3:9.3 | contained within it and held together by the learned ideas of the | ego thought system. Now you must imagine yourself walking outside of |
T3:10.8 | This is the practice of ceasing to listen to the voice of the | ego. While the ego is gone, many of its messages remain within your |
T3:10.8 | the practice of ceasing to listen to the voice of the ego. While the | ego is gone, many of its messages remain within your thoughts, like |
T3:10.14 | doing now is much like translating the learned thought system of the | ego into the thought system of the Christ-Self that you but think you |
T3:10.14 | you dwell in the House of Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the | ego thought system, the thought system of your true Self will quite |
T3:14.1 | The death of the | ego thought system has made way for the birth of the thought system |
T3:14.1 | birth of the thought system of the truth. The thought system of the | ego was based on fear. In this time of translation from one thought |
T3:14.1 | change is the change from the foundation of fear, the basis of the | ego thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought |
T3:14.1 | the thought system of truth. While the foundation of fear, like the | ego, will have left you now, a pattern of behaving fearfully may |
T3:14.2 | clear. Because you now are translating the thought system of the | ego into the thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe |
T3:14.11 | the illusion from which it came. Remember that bitterness, like the | ego, has existed in all. If your brother or sister would not give up |
T3:15.8 | With the death of the | ego, special relationships too have breathed their last. As I said |
T3:15.11 | for the finalizing of the translation of the thought system of the | ego to the thought system of the truth. As we have said before, it is |
T3:15.13 | learned, what this Course did was bypass the way of learning of the | ego and call upon the Christ in you to learn anew. That learning put |
T3:16.3 | These have been the ways of creation in the thought system of the | ego, ways that have brought much advancement to the forms you occupy |
T3:16.3 | their nature in the slightest measure. All the effort of the | ego has not brought an end to suffering or strife, nor made of this |
T3:16.8 | your mind and heart will aid the translation of this aspect of the | ego thought system to the thought system of the truth. |
T3:16.16 | All of these temptations worked together in the thought system of the | ego and created patterns that caused them to only seem to be |
T3:19.4 | things have always had as their cause the thought system of the | ego or the bitterness of the heart. As cause and effect are one, |
T3:19.4 | seen in physical form without a corresponding cause birthed in the | ego thought system or the bitterness of the heart. |
T4:2.12 | Surely many desire to be “the best” as a means to glorify the | ego, but few of these succeed for the ego cannot be glorified. |
T4:2.12 | as a means to glorify the ego, but few of these succeed for the | ego cannot be glorified. |
T4:2.13 | You would not be here if you were still interested in glorifying the | ego, but you also are not yet completely certain of your Self and in |
T4:8.14 | It was only the | ego that made this desire seem to be for anything other than the |

D:4.16 | referred to both the ego and to the ego’s thought system, but the | ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and of itself. It is thought |
D:4.16 | case with the system of learning through contrast, since when the | ego entered with its false ideas and judgment, contrast did not |
D:4.16 | the lessons it was meant to provide. In addition, believing the | ego had become an externalized self took you, the true Self and the |
D:5.2 | you was meant to represent. It was in much the same way that the | ego came to represent you. |
D:5.3 | and a false representation. While the false representation of the | ego self led to the world you see, it did not change the truth but |
D:5.8 | Obviously—as you have been told that the | ego has represented a false self—it is possible to misrepresent. |

D:Day1.6 | You were required to make a choice between the thought system of the | ego and the thought system of unity. This choice was made, and thus |
D:Day2.2 | You have let go the | ego, re-viewed your life, unlearned previous patterns, and now see |
D:Day3.24 | This is the way fears operate. They operate in the pattern of the | ego, a pattern that was learned, a pattern that was emphasized and |
D:Day3.24 | It is the pattern of the ego’s survival, and even though the | ego is no longer with you, the pattern remains because what you |

T1:1.9 | A mind and heart joined in union abolishes the ego. The | ego-mind was what was once in charge of all your thoughts. Since the |
T1:1.9 | of all your thoughts. Since the ego is incapable of learning the | ego-mind had to be circumvented in order for true learning to take |
T1:2.1 | think no more. A break in time was needed for you to disengage the | ego-mind that produced the type of thinking that needs to come to an |

T1:2.3 | the truth and apply to that experience the thoughts of the | ego-mind, the same thoughts that were applied to former experiences |
T1:2.4 | of your true Self, your thoughts, once removed from those of the | ego-mind are the expression and extension of your true Self. They are |
T1:2.5 | Thoughts that were guarded by the | ego-mind were in need of being set free. Appealing to your heart was |
T1:2.6 | The so-called thinking of the | ego-mind was so tyrannical that its use throughout your lifetime |
T1:2.6 | unable to respond purely to anything. The so-called thinking of the | ego-mind could be likened to chitchat, background noise, static. So |
T1:2.7 | were unable to do so. To those most skilled in this training of the | ego-mind worldly rewards have long been given. These people attain |
T1:2.7 | importance of such focused thoughts and thus further entrenched the | ego-mind. To think that you could learn the truth of who you are |
T1:2.9 | and the art of thought leaves behind forever the need for what the | ego-mind once but seemed to offer you. |
T1:2.10 | The thoughts of your | ego-mind were ruled by the nature of the body. To exist as creatures |
T1:2.10 | of the body have thus subjected you to conditions that invited the | ego-mind to turn its attention to existence in this lower order. It |

T1:5.11 | The “here” that you experience is the experience dictated by the | ego-mind, and this experience is all that makes you believe you are |
T1:5.11 | believe you are other than who you are. Thus the abolishing of the | ego-mind, as stated many times and in many ways, must now be brought |
T1:6.1 | The thought system of the | ego-mind is a learned system and this is why it can be unlearned. The |

T2:9.14 | you are in such a state can alert you, or serve as a sign, that the | ego-mind and its fear-based thinking has momentarily returned. This |
T2:9.15 | of needs or the dependency inherent in relationships bypass the | ego-mind? They heretofore have not, only because of your perception |
T2:9.15 | of what you are lacking. Once this perception has shifted, your | ego-mind will cease to be fed by these concerns. What is food for the |

T3:10.9 | the voice of the Christ-mind will be gentle. The thoughts of the | ego-mind will come as disguises to certainty. Given just a little |
D:9.10 | as the “Art of Thought” led to abilities beyond the thinking of the | ego-mind, the beliefs of the “Treatise on Unity” were meant to lead |
D:Day25.3 | not what you once were. You need not guard against an over-zealous | ego-mind. Your ideas in this time may sound crazy, even to your own |

T2:3.4 | through. Now you must fully recognize the distinction between the | ego-self that previously was the self of learning and experience, and |
T2:3.5 | and living in the world as your Christ-Self rather than as your | ego-self that will aid you in expression. Without expression, the |
T2:11.15 | upon the Christ as your higher self to defend you against the | ego-self. This is highly akin to your former notion of prayer and |
T2:11.16 | The alternative is removing all faith from your belief in the | ego-self. The alternative is replacing belief in an ego-self with |
T2:11.16 | belief in the ego-self. The alternative is replacing belief in an | ego-self with belief in a Christ-Self. Total replacement. As long as |
T2:13.3 | you are here, you have a persona. While this persona is no longer an | ego-self but a Christ-Self, it is still a persona. This is the “you” |
T3:1.1 | the personal self that you presented to others represented an | ego-self who you believed yourself to be. Now the ego has been |
T3:1.6 | by your body, while adhering to the ego’s thought system, became an | ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal self cannot help but exist in |
T3:1.12 | is the Christ. Your remembrance of the Christ-Self has abolished the | ego-self and allows us to begin the lessons of the personal self. |
T3:1.13 | lessons of this Course, to distinguish the personal self from the | ego-self. There is a danger even now in focusing upon the self of the |
T3:1.13 | the self of the body, as this self has been so long bound to the | ego-self. Even with the ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns |
T3:2.12 | examined the reality you chose to believe in, the reality of an | ego-self, a self-concept seemingly stuck in an adolescent phase of |
T3:3.1 | need realize that the personal self that is dear to you is not your | ego-self and never has been. |
T3:4.7 | is to prevent the replacement of illusion with illusion, or one | ego-self with another. The training of this Course, while gentle in |
T3:4.8 | I repeat, and will do so again and again, that the | ego-self is gone from you. Whether you fully realize this or not |
T3:4.8 | love or fear. If you proceed with fear you will assemble a new | ego-self, an ego-self that perhaps will seem superior to the old, but |
T3:4.8 | fear. If you proceed with fear you will assemble a new ego-self, an | ego-self that perhaps will seem superior to the old, but which will |
T3:4.8 | seem superior to the old, but which will nonetheless still be an | ego-self. If you proceed with love, you will come to know your |
T3:5.2 | have emptied a space for love to fill. You have been emptied of the | ego-self as creative moments of inspiration filled you and emptied of |
T3:5.2 | as creative moments of inspiration filled you and emptied of the | ego-self in moments of connection with God. |
T3:5.4 | as was the rush to rebuild a part of the survival mechanism of the | ego-self. |
T3:5.7 | and new life. It was a gift meant to empty the world of the | ego-self and to allow the personal self to live on as the one true |
T3:8.5 | believe in the Christ-Self who is the only savior, rather than the | ego-self, which is all you have needed saving from. |
T3:10.14 | to your memory. You will soon forget the thought system of the | ego-self even though, when encountering those who still use that |
T3:12.9 | believed itself to be separate and alone. In its fear, it made an | ego-self which, because it sprang from fear, was not consistent with |
T3:17.5 | could not learn the untrue, a new self, which we have called the | ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the true, your |
T3:17.5 | a new self, which we have called the ego-self, was made. Since the | ego-self cannot learn the true, your true Self had to be appealed to |
T3:17.8 | known the existence of the illusion and the thought system of the | ego-self and been able to communicate within that illusion. Without |
T3:17.8 | within that illusion. Without this means of communication with the | ego-self the ability to learn the truth could not have returned to |
T3:21.11 | Even while this experience is experience of an | ego-self, it is still an experience as near to certainty as you have |
T4:1.26 | the truth and will soon begin looking earnestly for it. Even the | ego-self will be perceived clearly by these, and they will not want |
D:Day3.28 | striving for more, a trick to guarantee the survival of the | ego-self, a trick that provided the small rewards of time-bound |
D:Day4.25 | no more good than blaming others, for without the dismantling of the | ego-self, without the dismantling of the self as separate and alone, |
D:Day7.19 | It was the disjoining of mind and heart, of the real Self from the | ego-self, that created the need for learning and the imposition, from |
D:Day8.26 | the future self you think you can only dream of being. The | ego-self was the self you felt safe presenting to the world, the self |
D:Day36.2 | As an | ego-self, you created an experience for yourself that was separate |
ego-self’s (1) |

T3:2.12 | seemingly stuck in an adolescent phase of development. The | ego-self’s only desire was for you to “grow up” into its version of |
ego-thought (2) |
||
T3:18.10 | you observe forms outside of your mind. This is the thinking of the | ego-thought system. The thought system of the truth realizes that the |
T3:20.5 | is the case, by looking at observation under the guidance of the | ego-thought system and thus seeing the errors of the old way in order |

C:P.5 | Miracles opened a door by threatening the ego. All those who, with | egos weakened, walked this world with the hope of leaving ego behind, |
T1:9.12 | most often meant a turning away from the feeling realm where their | egos held most sway, toward the intellectual. This instinctual |
A.18 | difficulty lies. To give up difficulty for ease is more than some | egos are willing to accept. To give up effort for receptivity is more |

T2:4.5 | as a sudden panic or fear brought on by any number of factors. | Either way, the result would always be the same; a sudden change from |

D:6.26 | from this new experience in form you now enter into, but that the | elevated Self of form is now able to join with the Self in the unity |

C:8.1 | The thoughts of your heart you have defined as your | emotions. These thoughts stand apart from the wisdom of your heart |

T3:5.1 | While you have just been told that you now exist in a state of | emptiness, this is not a state to be feared. Yet it is this fear of |

C:29.21 | identity and your power to make choices is an act that comes from an | entirely different place than decision-making. Claiming is akin to |

C:17.15 | Your thoughts, however, have become quite harsh, and quite | entrenched in the belief in their right to judge. Many of you have |
T1:2.7 | emphasized the importance of such focused thoughts and thus further | entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you could learn the truth of |
T3:19.11 | those continuing to express themselves in harmful ways are deeply | entrenched in false beliefs about themselves. Because they are not |

D:6.2 | to embrace true representation. In the time of learning, you were so | entrenched in your false beliefs that their insanity needed to be |
D:Day3.2 | and shorter while the time of enforced learning has grown more | entrenched. |

D:Day3.40 | you did not think, if you were to make an association in regards to | entry, you would likely say the entry point was the mind. This is, in |
D:Day3.40 | to make an association in regards to entry, you would likely say the | entry point was the mind. This is, in a sense, true, as |
D:Day3.40 | of this joining as creating a portal of access, a new source of | entry. But these points do not advance our discussion now and can be |
D:Day3.43 | Do you not see? You are the | entry point, the only channel through which all that is available in |
D:Day5.1 | A point of access will no longer be needed once full | entry is attained, just as a key is no longer needed once a door has |
D:Day5.1 | This point of access will thus now be discussed, both as an initial | entry point and as a continued entry point so that it is available to |
D:Day5.1 | now be discussed, both as an initial entry point and as a continued | entry point so that it is available to you until it is no longer |
D:Day5.2 | in order to enter it. For those of you who have felt the point of | entry to be the mind in experiences already registered, there is no |
D:Day5.21 | and feeling that we used the onion to illustrate, but as a point of | entry and pass-through. What comes of unity enters you and passes |
D:Day5.26 | something that is not of you is entering you, and it does not imply | entry without exit. When you think of breathing, you may think of |
D:Day5.26 | more “of” you, but there is no more or less to the relationship of | entry and exit. You are in continual relationship with the air you |
D:Day9.1 | have experienced there. I am your refuge from the past, your gate of | entry to the present. You have fled the foreign land, where freedom |

D:12.13 | is not so strange and unusual as it may sound, that this access and | entryway already exists within you, and that you have already |

T2:13.5 | in equal exchange by all who in creation exist together in oneness | eternal. |
T3:5.8 | is that in each the ego will die and the Self be reborn to life | eternal. Without rebirth of the Self, the original purpose goes |

T3:16.17 | and true interrelated whole. What forms the House of Truth is love | eternal and it has always encompassed you, even unto encompassing the |
T3:20.15 | to offer the temporary to the temporary when I call you to offer the | eternal to the eternal. The new way will work wherever it finds |
T3:20.15 | to the temporary when I call you to offer the eternal to the | eternal. The new way will work wherever it finds willingness. You |
T4:4.15 | of matter to the divine that matter can become divine and thus | eternal. If you can abide in unity while in human form, you will have |
D:3.2 | but a call to life. It is not of the past or the future but of the | eternal now. It is within you as we speak, the tone and timbre of |
D:3.19 | of the new, because the elevated Self of form is new. The Self is | eternal. Your Self of elevated form is newly birthed, just as I was |
D:3.19 | birthed, just as I was once newly birthed even though my Self was | eternal. One of the major things we will be seeing as we proceed is |
D:5.15 | acceptance that recognizes that while the Self that God created is | eternal and the self of form as ancient as the sea and stars, the |
D:15.11 | life took on existence in form and space. It is temporal rather than | eternal. Alongside it, in the state of unity, rests all that is |
D:15.11 | than eternal. Alongside it, in the state of unity, rests all that is | eternal, all that is real. What is real is but another way of saying |
D:15.11 | is real is but another way of saying what is true. What is true is | eternal life, not temporal life. There are no degrees of life. One |
D:15.11 | All that lives contains the breath or wind of spirit, which is | eternal and complete. |
D:15.12 | Expression, movement, and being are about what is | eternal passing through what is temporal. Thus I return you to the |
D:15.12 | is a relationship without end. What passes through you now is the | eternal come to replace the temporal. |
D:15.13 | To try to capture the | eternal would be like trying to catch the wind. But just as the wind |
D:16.6 | any more than it is an attribute. This is because love remains in | eternal wholeness. Love cannot be learned, and so has stood apart |
D:16.7 | is a description of the All of All because it is whole and rests in | eternal completion and wholeness. Love is the state of unity, the |
D:16.7 | to you. Love, God, Creation, are all that remained in union, in | eternal completion, when form came into being. |
D:Day1.5 | of simple requirements, requirements of daily life rather than of | eternal life. The requirement asked of you here is not to exclude |
D:Day1.5 | to exclude others in whom you believe and have found a connection to | eternal life, only to accept me as who I am. |
D:Day2.17 | It is hard for you to believe that my resurrection heralded | eternal life when death has been a constant companion of all those |
D:Day2.17 | me you will not walk in my footsteps. Perhaps you will be granted | eternal life, but not until you have suffered as I suffered. This |
D:Day2.24 | to demonstrate that the end of suffering had come, and with it, | eternal life. |
D:Day4.46 | what living from love is. It means that you will resurrect to | eternal life here and now. It means no turning back, no return to |
D:Day16.2 | because you have felt it, is still there because consciousness is | eternal. All that you have learned that has touched your heart is |
D:Day16.3 | and goes and is impermanent. What is of spirit, or consciousness, is | eternal. |
D:Day18.6 | the human and divine and thus accomplished the resurrection of the | eternal in form. Your virgin state, the state unaltered by the |

D:Day39.38 | within you. That mystery is the tension of opposites. It is time and | eternity. Love and hate. Good and evil. In other words, All and |
D:Day39.38 | that has existed since the beginning of time, between time and | eternity, between the attributeless love and the attribute laden |

C:P.3 | The separated self or the ego does not learn. | Even when the ego has taken many courses and received many teachings, |
C:P.13 | or your discoveries of other forms of the truth, although you may | even have experienced what seemed to be miracles happening “to” you, |
C:P.16 | to you, and choosing it instead. You do not see that this choice, | even made with every good intention of going back and making a |
C:P.16 | You are so afraid to let go of the world that you have known that, | even though it is a world of conflict, sickness, and death, you will |
C:P.25 | The way to overcome the dualism that threatens | even the most astute of learners is through the Christ in you, |
C:P.26 | that is given him or her, and this too is seen as acceptable and | even “right.” |
C:P.29 | hours pass endlessly in toil that is the cost of your survival here. | Even those who have studied much and learned the lessons of the |
C:P.31 | another human being, and yet you keep seeking this type of knowing. | Even with another human being, knowing what they stand for, what |
C:P.40 | To tell someone, | even a young child, that a caterpillar becomes a butterfly is |
C:1.3 | the heart to the body. You would not exist without love. It is there | even if you are as unaware of it as you are of the beating of your |
C:1.3 | it does not realize its heart is beating. You are no less your Self | even though you do not realize that without love you would not exist. |
C:1.16 | do you continue to recognize that love is at the heart of all things | even while it is not valued here? Here is a fine example that means |
C:2.8 | Yet you believe that to think the opposite is true insanity. Given | even your limited view of who you are, could this really be true? |
C:2.9 | of your ego. Your true Self does not want to forget, and cannot for | even the tiniest fraction of a second. It is precisely the inability |
C:2.12 | an advocate of heartlessness but wholeheartedness. If you believe | even the tiniest fraction of what is true, if you but believe you are |
C:2.13 | of Him, to create what is unlike to His being in every way. Would | even you attempt such folly? Would you conceive of the inconceivable? |
C:2.19 | this happens, the ego takes pride in what the mind has acquired, | even unto the greater peace and contentment offered by your learning. |
C:2.19 | on the back for your new abilities. Without your vigilance it may | even seem to have become stronger than before and fiercer in its |
C:3.4 | you see and those you only can imagine. To seek the “face” of God, | even in the form of Christ, is to seek for what is forever without |
C:3.7 | Each one you place in relationship to yourself, and so you do not | even see the form as it is but only as what it will do for you. You |
C:4.3 | Its eternal presence. Longing is your proof of love’s existence, for | even here you would not long for what is not remembered. |
C:4.19 | Even you who do not recognize what love is protect what you call love | |
C:4.22 | dream have earned the right to turn their backs upon the world | even for the scanty hours that they make believe they can do so. |
C:5.6 | you have forgotten that it exists. All truth lies in relationship, | even one so simple as this. The pencil is not real, nor the hand that |
C:5.11 | come from love, your response to them is what is guided by fear. | Even feelings of destruction and violence come from love. You are not |
C:5.22 | so on your own, the more you realize the futility of your efforts, | even though you do not want to admit that your efforts are futile. |
C:6.4 | That the universe is an interrelated whole is no longer disputed | even by science. What you have made to hide your reality has been, |
C:6.10 | How can it be for you if you cannot put in effort to attain it? And | even if it were so, what then? Some, you think, might choose to live |
C:6.14 | would indeed be a failure if it were possible for it to be so. Yet | even this possibility you would cling to, for with no chance of |
C:6.20 | in bodily form, perhaps, yet you imagine them happy and at peace. | Even those who claim not to believe in God or an afterlife of any |
C:7.2 | And yet you would withhold a piece of yourself | even from love, and this is what we must correct. For what you |
C:7.4 | you have determined to be unique, your existence would seem to serve | even less purpose than it does now. Thus that which is most separate, |
C:7.11 | that you choose this form of withholding, sometimes dozens or | even hundreds of times a day. An unreturned phone call, a bit of |
C:7.11 | of these in your mind, and there you build them into reasons for | even further withholding. Now you have an excuse—or several excuses |
C:7.11 | anyone when your day has already treated you so badly? You withhold | even a smile, because you have chosen grievances over love. |
C:7.13 | What you do not realize is that every situation is a relationship— | even those as simple as unreturned phone calls and snarled traffic. |
C:7.18 | in a manner much more whole than the perception of your split mind. | Even your language and images reflect this truth, this difference |
C:7.21 | the truth is different in one place than it is in another and it | even appears to be in conflict. You cling to known truths, even |
C:7.21 | and it even appears to be in conflict. You cling to known truths, | even though you are aware of their instability in time as well as |
C:7.21 | in time as well as place, and so you live with constant denial that | even what is known to you is not known at all. You thus cling to the |
C:7.23 | Accept a new authority, | even if only for the little while that it will take you to read these |
C:8.6 | seem too much to bear can cause what you call emotional turmoil or | even a nervous breakdown. In these situations either too many |
C:8.7 | memories of these emotions—so many that they could not be counted | even for one day, even by those who claim to have them not. It is not |
C:8.7 | emotions—so many that they could not be counted even for one day, | even by those who claim to have them not. It is not your thoughts to |
C:8.10 | Even those of you whose perceptions remain quite faulty know that | |
C:8.11 | right from wrong, truth from lies, fact from fiction. You do not | even see that what you desire is further separation, and that |
C:8.12 | Even your loftiest desires are fraught with righteousness that is | |
C:8.15 | as you do not let other surface conditions hide the truth from you. | Even if you have not formerly found the truth, you have recognized |
C:8.18 | how it governs your existence and wondering how you could spend | even a moment without awareness of it. |
C:9.1 | as your mind, telling you one thing one day and one thing the next. | Even more so than your mind it seems to lead you astray, forcing you |
C:9.13 | have named and classified is harder to dislodge and bring to light. | Even those feelings you attempt to name and keep cleverly in a box |
C:9.21 | respite from the war that rages beyond it. All of your behavior and | even your fantasies testify that you believe an absence of cold makes |
C:9.26 | they are yourself, and they are your only means to grasp eternity | even within this false reality you have made. |
C:9.31 | you have no needs at all. What you truly are cannot be used, not | even by God. See you not that it is only in illusion that you can use |
C:9.45 | outside yourself and label drugs, alcohol, tobacco, gambling, and | even food as destructive forces. Like the automobile you would blame |
C:9.49 | remain separate, you must use your brothers and sisters in order to | even maintain the illusion of your separation. Would it not simply be |
C:10.1 | linked with anything than you are with your own body? If you are not | even joined with this presence that you call your home, how can you |
C:10.11 | of a headache or the cold of a winter day, and this pretending may | even make you feel a little less pain or a little less cold. But this |
C:10.14 | and ears, as well as that of science, would say you are your body. | Even history would seem to prove this fact as you look back and say |
C:10.14 | Even history would seem to prove this fact as you look back and say | even Jesus died before he could rise again as spirit. |
C:10.21 | the oblivion of the separated self through drugs, alcohol, or | even constant work or shopping, they refuse to return to the |
C:10.27 | see it from behind as you follow it about its day, without, at first | even being aware that this is happening. And you will find that as |
C:11.2 | and your Creator are two separate things, and too seldom remember | even that you are not your own creator. You have made this separation |
C:11.3 | quit before you begin in order to keep from failing one more time. | Even those who feel the power of these words within their hearts and |
C:11.14 | made go, and realize that willingness does not negate free will. Yet | even while you cannot yet quite give up your guardianship of it, it |
C:12.5 | love. You are looking for the safety and security of a loving home, | even if it is one only of philosophy. You look for the soft assurance |
C:12.5 | thinks, “If I could just be sure…” and stops there, for you are not | even sure of what it is you seek assurance. And yet you know what |
C:12.8 | the others follow—and through no effort on your part at all. And | even this one change is not a change at all, for it merely seeks to |
C:12.13 | ceased to be seen here God’s image was lost to earth forever? Could | even one have come and gone and left this void forever more unfilled? |
C:12.21 | But just as your ideas do not take on a life of their own | even though they at times seem to, this idea as well had no ability |
C:13.5 | is love. You will want to give it many names at first, and might not | even recognize it as love, for it will come without all the longing |
C:13.10 | is money or the use of any other thing you value. And there is not | even the slightest chance of being made to look foolish by what you |
C:14.11 | and child, of best friends, of a marriage or a partnership, or | even that of a mentor or student. Whatever the relationship’s |
C:14.15 | other than fear. You might call this desire pride or security, or | even accept that it is vanity, before you would call it fear. But |
C:14.19 | your own, for as long as it maintains its autonomy, which it must, | even its nearness is not enough. And so what you attempt next is an |
C:14.20 | Some may realize that they are afraid of losing love, and | even speak of it and try to alleviate the fear with official |
C:14.20 | and trust, for their feelings remain strong despite their fear. For | even those who fear no deception must remain afraid of the great |
C:15.4 | make another special could make a difference to many—or possibly | even to anyone. You just want to love your mate and children, your |
C:15.9 | seems the ultimate act of disloyalty to your own kind. To | even think that you could change and be unlike others of your kind, |
C:15.11 | is a way to do so, a way that will not harm any of those you love | even while betraying all they would hold dear. But which would you |
C:16.10 | mind would have you believe it does. For your split mind judges | even love and opposes it on the basis that it uses no judgment! Here |
C:16.10 | no judgment! Here you can see the value that you place on judgment, | even to the ridiculous notion that you can judge judgment itself. You |
C:16.10 | from what your mind would bid it do, and this is why you fear it | even while you yearn for it. This is what the split mind would call |
C:16.11 | Again your memory of creation serves you, | even if it has not served you well. It is this memory that tells you |
C:16.13 | against disaster. And yet you cling to all attempts to do so | even while knowing they are ineffective. |
C:16.14 | vigilance because you know no other way to ensure your safety, and | even if you cannot guarantee your safety against everything all of |
C:16.15 | you love as well as your own self is to be asked to live a life of | even greater risk than that which you live now. |
C:16.17 | thus reinforces the idea of separation, making of it something | even darker than it started out as being. It no longer seems like a |
C:16.20 | Might makes right is a saying that is known to many of you, and | even those who know the saying not believe in the tenets it |
C:17.3 | claim that you are aware of all that exists within the universe, or | even that you fully know your own Self. What is fearful about the |
C:17.5 | so this assumption that what is unknown must be bad cannot be valid, | even by your own standards of evidence. Yet, in your estimation, the |
C:17.5 | the reason that you use is loyal to the world you see. This is why | even Heaven, which you would label good, is not wholly good in your |
C:17.6 | had children, taken mind-altering drugs, or attempted strenuous or | even terrifying physical feats. But all of you without exception have |
C:17.6 | and dreaming, being married, using drugs, or having children; but | even those of you who would listen to what the experts have to say |
C:17.7 | your plans and rail against everything that interferes with them, | even knowing in advance that your greatest efforts at organization |
C:17.16 | is to only give thought to forgiveness. This many of you will give, | even to deciding to forgive despite your better judgment. See you not |
C:17.16 | See you not how little sense this makes, how insincere this | even sounds? |
C:18.1 | stories of many cultures and religions. When you accept this, | even in non-literal terms, as the story of the separation, you accept |
C:18.2 | the globe. I am among those whose hand you hold. All are linked, | even if each one is not holding the hand of every other one. If one |
C:18.5 | for you, as you held mine when I entered the world in physical form. | Even if it is just an illustration, it illustrates that none of us |
C:18.11 | unity individually before their belief system can be changed, | even when what is learned is shared at another level. |
C:18.21 | your feelings of lack of love or fear. What we have as yet talked | even less of, however, is what emotion covers up, and the stillness |
C:19.6 | Your saving grace is that | even a separated self yearns for union and knowledge of its Creator. |
C:19.8 | What my brothers and sisters saw in me allowed me to be who I was, | even while in human form. I tell you truly if you were to see any of |
C:19.11 | witnessed to your arrival just as the scriptures witnessed to mine. | Even while some of my words were distorted or misinterpreted, you can |
C:19.15 | that another’s experience will not bring this knowledge to you, not | even my experience. If this were so, all of those who read of my life |
C:19.16 | are ideas quite foreign to you, and truly, while you remain here, | even experiences beyond thoughts and words you will apply word and |
C:19.24 | idea of self-redemption has long been a culprit that has kept union, | even with your own Self, undesirable to you. The concept that in |
C:19.24 | The concept that in oneness there is no need for blame or guilt or | even for redemption is inconceivable to the separate mind. But not to |
C:20.1 | quite different from that which you have felt before. Your heart may | even feel as if it is stretching outward, straining heavenward, near |
C:20.21 | can let all thought go. Within the embrace, you can quit thinking | even of holy things, holy men and women, and even divine beings, even |
C:20.21 | you can quit thinking even of holy things, holy men and women, and | even divine beings, even the one God. Is not the embrace itself holy? |
C:20.21 | even of holy things, holy men and women, and even divine beings, | even the one God. Is not the embrace itself holy? Is not the sunrise |
C:20.35 | You have not before now been able to | even imagine knowing what you do. You hope to have moments of clarity |
C:20.35 | moment, what you have done, what you hope to do in the future. But | even these moments of clarity are fractional. They seldom have any |
C:20.47 | my existence and to me and they are all I need concern myself with.” | Even when you think of expanding your view, you deem that expansion |
C:21.2 | a particular being, you are time-bound. You can realize the eternal | even in your temporary form if you can let go of your particularity. |
C:21.3 | conceptualized. It is an abstract rather than a particular concept, | even while having a seeming structure that your heart can feel. |
C:21.7 | Mind and heart interpret meaning in different ways. You do not | even begin to understand the enormity of this conflict or what it |
C:21.7 | as natural. You see that there are two ways of viewing a situation, | even if you do not label one way of viewing or perceiving being of |
C:22.3 | picture is the relationship between the globe and the axis, | even though you realize the axis allows the globe to spin. |
C:22.6 | rather than upon an idea of division, and they help to show that | even what is divided by intersection remains whole. |
C:22.23 | becomes available, you will have no desire for the personal. | Even so, you will find that what you consider your individuality or |
C:23.24 | Many of you will have begun to experience unlearning opportunities | even while your study of this Course may have led you to turn inward |
C:25.12 | have no lack, to believe in your state of grace. While you believe | even one person is against you, you are not in concert with God. |
C:25.19 | and be tinged with anxiety, anger, confusion, perplexity, | even rage. You will doubt that these are the proper feelings of a |
C:27.11 | just so that you can better understand yourself or your world, or | even so that you can bring Heaven to Earth. Although these are |
C:27.14 | and wholeness. To live in relationship is to live in harmony | even with conflict. It is an understanding that if conflict arises in |
C:27.16 | How often have you, | even with the best of intentions, not known the proper response to |
C:27.16 | the best of intentions, not known the proper response to make? You | even wonder as you pray whether you should pray for specific outcomes |
C:28.3 | think shared beliefs amass, like a congregation around a pulpit, and | even believe in a theory of mass that purports that when a certain |
C:28.4 | its zenith and will no longer be as welcomed or appreciated, so | even were the intent of this Course to bring testimony together in |
C:29.21 | you have faith that your true inheritance is what you truly desire, | even knowing not exactly what that inheritance is? Can you not follow |
C:31.4 | yet each are from the same source, and so they are not different | even while they are not the same. |
C:31.9 | consequential. All over the world people of good faith fight to save | even one life. Each life is irreplaceable and no one argues this |
C:31.30 | seeking to complete yourself. You are seeking wholeness. And you are | even correct in seeking it from your brothers and sisters—just not |
T1:1.7 | by which you could allow your mind to be restful enough for it to | even contemplate union or the new learning required in order to |
T1:1.11 | would be seen as quite difficult no matter how grand its outcome and | even in spite of your recognition, at first in mere fleeting moments, |
T1:2.7 | have learned by using their skills and knowledge in the world for | even greater rewards. These rewards have further emphasized the |
T1:3.3 | it is. The ego-mind sees not anything but what it wants as gifts and | even these it sees not as gifts but as rewards. The ego-mind barters |
T1:3.9 | turning of water into wine. What harm could come from it? And yet | even this you would fear for if you asked for such a miracle and it |
T1:3.19 | at the suggestion that you need proof to shore up your faith, balk, | even while you remain convinced that a failure of such proof would |
T1:3.20 | convinced of your own power. How could this possibly be important? | Even were you to possess such power, surely it is a power that is of |
T1:3.20 | not you for its accomplishment. Better not to mess with such things. | Even the thought of it leads you to ideas of magic and power that is |
T1:3.21 | of Jesus and of the saints and that is surely where they belong. To | even implore them would be heresy. |
T1:3.23 | so much suffering in so many places. Surely you wouldn’t want that | even if it could come to be. Indeed this would require the auspices |
T1:3.24 | behind them? You are not worthy. You are not saintly, godlike or | even holy. You might choose incorrectly. You might invoke |
T1:3.25 | have done here is bring your fears to light, fears that you did not | even realize you held so closely or would be so terrified to let go. |
T1:4.5 | an object to you, no effect is possible from the sunset. The sun, | even during the most blazing sunset, has at times remained no more |
T1:4.12 | You may answer that there are many, | even within this Course’s definition of gift, the most obvious of |
T1:7.1 | achievement would complete you and take away your feelings of lack. | Even the most successful among you have found that your worldly |
T1:7.2 | Even the most spiritual and godly among you accept suffering. Even | |
T1:7.2 | Even the most spiritual and godly among you accept suffering. | Even those who understand as completely as possible the truth of who |
T1:7.4 | But I have not yet said that the time of the Holy Spirit is ending | even though I have stated that the time of the second coming of |
T1:8.3 | event changes over time and it may take a hundred or a thousand or | even two thousand years for the real truth to be realized. Even |
T1:8.3 | or even two thousand years for the real truth to be realized. | Even though many versions of the truth have been accepted previously, |
T1:8.5 | suffer the separation, you need no longer suffer the separation. | Even though the resurrection returned not life to the form I once |
T1:8.5 | resurrected Christ who exists in all of you, bringing resurrection | even unto your forms. I became the Word incarnate upon my |
T1:8.5 | after me are not as I was but as I Am. Does this not make sense, | even in your human terms of evolution? You are the resurrected and |
T1:8.7 | Now, how could one man’s resurrection be the way or | even a way. How can resurrection provide a path or example for you to |
T1:10.6 | to read you do not return to learning to read over and over again | even while you may continue to read for a lifetime. You can continue |
T2:1.5 | place is indeed hallowed ground and an earned respite, a demarcation | even between the old way and the new way of living. But it is not the |
T2:1.6 | This place is not life but neither is it death, for | even death is not an eternal resting place in the sense that you have |
T2:1.6 | not an eternal resting place in the sense that you have imagined it. | Even rest, once truly learned, is simply rest. It is not a resting |
T2:1.8 | you think in terms of place because you think in terms of form. Thus | even I have often used the idea of place as a teaching aid. But you |
T2:1.9 | Even the desires you may have once identified as hoping to develop | |
T2:2.2 | use this phrase. But many recognize that they have a calling | even unto things the world considers mundane. |
T2:3.4 | something real and learning something that is of relevance | even within the daily life you currently move through. Now you must |
T2:4.18 | This is why you do not have to “wait” to hear your calling | even though some of you may feel as if you are in a time of waiting |
T2:5.1 | in nature. Other calls will come as announcements, signs, or | even as seeming demands. All call you to the present where response |
T2:6.1 | in the place we are calling within and your heart knows not of time | even while it adheres to the rules of time you would place upon |
T2:6.8 | exist fully accomplished within the seed that is the Christ in you | even while you continue to grow and change. Physical form and action |
T2:6.9 | You are creating the state of unity as a new reality for your Self | even though it is actually a return to what has always been. You are |
T2:6.10 | in unity in the present, in the here and now, so that you exist— | even within form—as the only Son of God, the Christ, the word made |
T2:7.6 | This source is the ego. | Even now, the ego will take every opportunity that arises to prove to |
T2:9.4 | there has been a loss such as with the loss of a job or loved one or | even of the promise of some service. When you think in such a way you |
T2:9.5 | to possessions, you but continue to feel as if you “have” needs | even long after they have been met. Since I have already stated that |
T2:10.3 | you? You might feel frustrated with your memory at such a time and | even say something such as “my brain just isn’t working right today.” |
T2:10.18 | you have intended for it to go, you do not feel gifted or blessed | even when you may have looked back often on situations that did not |
T2:11.1 | created and how you remain. This is the truth of who you are and | even, in your own terms, a fact of your existence. Earlier this was |
T2:11.2 | Even though you no longer want to be other than who you are, and even | |
T2:11.2 | Even though you no longer want to be other than who you are, and | even though you now have a much clearer understanding of who you are, |
T2:11.3 | and strife. It is the battle that in your imaginings has extended | even to the angels. The ego is the dragon that must be slain, the |
T2:11.12 | This is the key to understanding the truth of these statements. For | even while you have chosen separation, this choice did not preclude |
T2:11.15 | is nonsense, or but a form of the insanity that is prevalent still, | even in your thinking. You do not realize that this source of |
T3:1.11 | presented yourself to be could be two completely different selves. | Even within the illusion in which you existed there was a self kept |
T3:1.13 | distinguish the personal self from the ego-self. There is a danger | even now in focusing upon the self of the body, as this self has been |
T3:1.13 | of the body, as this self has been so long bound to the ego-self. | Even with the ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns of the |
T3:2.8 | that is called art is art, and not all that you call self is Self, | even while both may represent the truth as you perceive of it. |
T3:3.5 | could be rightly placed. Your depression was blamed on the past. | Even your successes were often claimed to be at the expense of |
T3:4.1 | behind your addictions or to go on a diet or a fast. It will not | even tell you to be kind. It does not tell you to be responsible and |
T3:5.3 | by a loss of self due to illness or addiction, depression, or | even physical exhaustion. All these things you have brought to |
T3:5.6 | time in which I lived it, and has an appropriateness that continues | even now. I walked the earth in order to reveal a God of love. The |
T3:5.6 | suffered. The answer was that God’s love was so mighty that he would | even allow the death of his only son to redeem the world. |
T3:6.4 | old as time itself and the cause of bitterness being able to exist, | even within your hearts. |
T3:6.5 | you have always been convinced existed in the hearts of some, but | even being that it is just another word, it is one chosen to |
T3:7.4 | You are who you are and remain endlessly who you are, | even here within the human experience. This is the idea that is |
T3:7.6 | You took yourself into these many rooms and in some you were | even capable of representing your true Self. This representation of |
T3:7.9 | Now you have seized upon | even this idea and called it not treasure but theory and related it |
T3:8.8 | one change could bring about all the changes you would imagine that | even an army of angels could not bring about. While such a thought |
T3:8.13 | Has not a part of you always known that suffering does not have to be | even while you have accepted that it is? Let us now put an end to |
T3:10.14 | your memory. You will soon forget the thought system of the ego-self | even though, when encountering those who still use that thought |
T3:11.15 | You will, in truth, for quite some time, be striving to remain aware | even that you have changed dwelling places. There is a reason for |
T3:12.7 | to you here is something completely new, something you have not | even dreamed of. This state you have not even dared to dream of is a |
T3:12.7 | new, something you have not even dreamed of. This state you have not | even dared to dream of is a state in which only God’s laws of love |
T3:12.7 | dared to dream of is a state in which only God’s laws of love exist | even within the realm of physicality. What this means is that all |
T3:13.10 | To act as if this is the truth is what you are called to do. You may | even begin by something as simple as choosing one thing a day that |
T3:14.5 | who will be visited by great change are but those who desire it. Yet | even those who desire great change will find these great changes will |
T3:14.13 | assured that what you are called to is a life so new that you cannot | even imagine it. Imagine not the past and make for yourself no cause |
T3:15.3 | expectations of continued special treatment within the relationship. | Even, and sometimes especially, what is considered poor behavior can |
T3:15.5 | you often act “as if” you believe a new beginning is possible, | even while awaiting the lapse that will surely prove to you that the |
T3:15.5 | loved one of an alcoholic can similarly approach each day with faith | even while suspiciously looking for signs that faith is unwarranted. |
T3:16.4 | in ways that you would like and while its limitations may seem | even more frustrating than before, I am also confident in saying that |
T3:16.17 | House of Truth is love eternal and it has always encompassed you, | even unto encompassing the house of illusion that you made to obscure |
T3:18.9 | of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe only the truth, | even unto seeing what before but seemed unobservable. |
T3:19.12 | led to the old reality, a reality that will still exist for some | even after it changes completely for you. |
T3:19.13 | This will seem | even more inconsistent with a benevolent universe than it once did |
T3:19.14 | this disparity would be divisive and extremely uncomfortable and | even rage-producing for those still living in illusion. But it will |
T3:20.6 | is given despite the “fact” that it is unwarranted. Yet | even while you offer encouragement, you worry about giving “false” |
T3:20.7 | seemingly already written, and think that is more realistic and | even helpful than living by the laws of truth. |
T3:20.8 | begin to see that in so doing you but reinforce it? What you might | even call the “fact” of it? Can you not instead ask yourself what |
T3:20.9 | While you need not act in ways inconsistent with compassion or | even verbalize your new beliefs, you are being told directly here |
T3:20.12 | You can no longer return to the house of illusion, not | even to cause explosions within it. You have stepped out of this |
T3:20.18 | Thus you are released from a burden never meant to rest upon you | even if it is one you might have freely chosen. Your task is to |
T3:21.11 | Even while this experience is experience of an ego-self, it is still | |
T3:21.12 | And | even more so than these things, although this hasn’t as often been |
T3:21.12 | few things, in addition to your name and family of origin ever are. | Even the most materialistic among you rarely count what you have |
T3:21.13 | in favor of equal rights or environmental protection. And you may, | even while recognizing, as you surely do, that these beliefs are |
T3:21.17 | Now however, you are being called to accept your true identity | even while you retain the form of your personal self. As your true |
T3:21.17 | that of a self who exists in separation, this would seem impossible. | Even while your belief system has changed and you believe that you |
T3:21.20 | answer lies in realizing that your former identity does not matter, | even while realizing that it will serve your new purpose. Further, |
T3:21.20 | realizing that it will serve your new purpose. Further, there are | even two aspects to this contradictory seeming answer. One is that |
T3:22.1 | you may be happy to learn that you are not called to evangelize or | even to a leadership role, you know that you are called to something |
T3:22.2 | It would not be available, and it would not be known to you. So | even while I have said that no one is called to leadership and while |
T3:22.9 | self, and your attention has begun to wander from this topic | even as it is being concluded. |
T4:1.11 | at the same time, it must be seen that your choice matters in time, | even if all will make the same choice eventually. |
T4:1.12 | As was said within “A Treatise on the Personal Self,” | even the house of illusion is held within the embrace of love, of |
T4:1.13 | not; that this time might just be different than any other time. | Even as you begin to tentatively let this excitement grow, your |
T4:1.14 | be your science or technology, your advanced mental abilities, or | even your leisure time that has opened up this opportunity. The only |
T4:1.20 | and in the contrast learning did occur and has continued to occur | even unto this time. You have learned much of the nature of the truth |
T4:1.26 | less than the truth and will soon begin looking earnestly for it. | Even the ego-self will be perceived clearly by these, and they will |
T4:2.11 | one achieves but opens the door for others and this is known to you. | Even those who did not desire to fly in a plane when this feat was |
T4:2.12 | follow in time will do so more easily, with less effort, and with | even greater success. They may consider themselves “better than” for |
T4:2.13 | Thus, you must examine your intention | even now and remove from it all ideas that were of the old way. You |
T4:2.16 | any others without knowing that the truth of who they are is present | even though it might seem not to be? This is the power of the |
T4:2.22 | in some concept of unity or oneness, but you have also denied | even the possibility of experiencing your own direct relationship |
T4:2.23 | to realize the relationship that exists with the unseen and | even the seen. You have moved through life believing you have |
T4:3.6 | relationships fearful as well. Trust became something to be earned. | Even the most loving parent, like unto your most loving image of God, |
T4:3.13 | change. That the nature of matter is one of change. That the nature, | even of form, once returned to its natural state of love, is one of |
T4:4.2 | taken to extremes. Inherent within the extreme is the balance. | Even in the biblical description of creation was a day of rest spoken |
T4:4.3 | this balance between old generations and new seems necessary and | even crucial. One generation must pass to make room for the new. |
T4:4.4 | Even before the planet reached the state of over-population, this | |
T4:4.5 | God.” In the time in which I lived, the idea of inheritance was an | even stronger idea, an idea with much more power than in current |
T4:4.12 | Christ-consciousness. I am calling you to everlasting consciousness | even while you still abide in form. To be cognizant or aware of |
T4:5.11 | choice now. This is not a choice automatic to you in human form or | even upon the death of your human form. When you die, you do not die |
T4:7.3 | come ever closer to the truth by means of science, technology, and | even art and literature. Those who allow themselves to experience |
T4:7.6 | body. Sustaining this harmony will keep your body in perfect health, | even while the manner of this perfection of your health will remain |
T4:7.8 | continue to learn through the full variety of the human experience | even after it is unnecessary. Why? Because it is a choice, pure and |
T4:8.9 | be flat—God saw and knew to be consistent with the nature of man, | even while the fear and struggle that this impatience generated was |
T4:8.12 | To take away your freedom in order to protect you, | even from yourself, would not have been an act of love. To take away |
T4:8.16 | and your purpose here. To learn everything there is to know about | even one subject, and to call that learning complete, is an error. If |
T4:8.16 | is an error. If you rethink this definition you will see that | even in regards to the learning of one subject it is not the truth. |
T4:9.1 | Learning is not meant to last. This is why | even this coursework comes to an end. It comes to an end here and now |
T4:12.16 | Has not this pushing against limits been called progress? Have not | even the most devastating misuses of power attained through this |
T4:12.20 | singular consciousness, to let doubt of yourself take hold of you. | Even though you are abiding now in the state of Christ-consciousness, |
T4:12.27 | design, a pattern that was part of the pattern of your thoughts, | even after the ego came to rule your thought system. Without this |
T4:12.31 | help you to adapt to the truth of a sharing you will have received | even before it is communicated through the means to which you are |
D:1.8 | final surrender. The surrender of the control of the personal self. | Even with the ego gone, the personal self can continue to move about |
D:1.13 | as you open your heart and allow your true identity to be what is, | even within your form. You are in grace and union with the Source and |
D:1.20 | Is a piece of music not received by you | even when you may be one of thousands or millions who hear it? Does |
D:1.21 | an incredible feat by allowing and accepting the state of unity | even though you could not learn how to do so. This has been the |
D:2.6 | inability to claim the new identity could at times be acceptable and | even appropriate. In regard to the learning that you have now |
D:2.10 | It is proper now to deny the modes of learning, | even when they seemed to work for you in the past. That they seemed |
D:2.19 | so entrenched that no new learning is seen as possible or desirable | even though the systems and patterns are known not to work. In truth, |
D:3.6 | does not mean, however, that you accept goodness and deny evil or | even that you accept love and deny fear. How can this be? |
D:3.19 | of elevated form is newly birthed, just as I was once newly birthed | even though my Self was eternal. One of the major things we will be |
D:3.21 | simply a shared quality of oneness. It is not in need of learning or | even understanding. It is. Awareness of what is, is a quality of |
D:4.8 | quickly replace the life of the inmate if you will but let it do so. | Even those who actually are incarcerated in the prison system you |
D:4.16 | pattern came most of your false ideas, ideas that made it difficult | even for the divinely inspired thought systems to provide the |
D:4.26 | and so long barred that they may as well be prison walls. You may | even be a prisoner in truth, and wonder how, save a grand escape, you |
D:6.6 | seen it, for everything that exists in form is of the same Source. | Even those things you have made you have not made from nothing. There |
D:6.6 | this cannot be repeated enough, creation begins with what is. And so | even the creations you have made are only distinct from what was |
D:6.7 | to have rigidity and a particular meaning. But they still are real, | even if they are not as they appear to be to the body’s eyes. |
D:6.9 | it would have been impossible to repopulate the earth afterwards | even if it had taken place as described. |
D:6.13 | them for the certainty they have given you in an uncertain world. | Even if it has been a false certainty, it served a great purpose in |
D:6.14 | is open to the discovery of something new and “unbelievable” and | even “scientifically impossible,” as well as to the creation of |
D:6.19 | a person who has exhibited unhealthy habits gets sick, you think, | even if you would not say, that they “did it to themselves” or that |
D:7.16 | Observation takes place in time. | Even while you have been called to observe what is, what you are |
D:7.22 | has left so many unfulfilled, as environmental concerns mount, | even the perceived survival needs are leading you toward new answers |
D:7.24 | over his environment will come to an abrupt and painful end. Some | even fear an evolutionary setback, and see any threat against |
D:9.4 | your life without reaching the place of fulfillment you have sought. | Even now, when you have learned all that you are in need of learning, |
D:9.4 | you have learned all that you are in need of learning, the pattern, | even of your wholeheartedness, remains one of thought. This pattern |
D:10.5 | Self of form, the means through which the Self of union is known | even in the realm of separation, and thus what draws others from |
D:11.2 | You might | even consider this Dialogue the written notes of my thoughts. In this |
D:11.2 | be insane. Are you willing any longer to see me as a lecturer, or | even as a great teacher? Am I but a giver of information from whom |
D:11.12 | to the question your thoughts cannot quite comprehend well enough to | even articulate, much less to answer. |
D:12.9 | still a useful distinction, as “thinking” is seen as what you “do.” | Even in your dictionary definition, being “thoughtful” is seen as a |
D:12.10 | to be the more meditative version of your “thinking,” often | even resulting in a conclusion to your thinking, a summary of the |
D:12.18 | self was involved, somehow, in this coming to know of the truth, | even if this coming to know of the truth wasn’t quite “of” the “you” |
D:13.5 | you did not know before in form, that it is important, monumental | even; but you will be unable to “see” this knowing, to envision it in |
D:13.8 | to truly understand that you are not alone and separate, and that | even the coming to know of the state of unity is a shared coming to |
D:14.14 | state of unity is what is real, yet you have known this reality not, | even though it is the more subtle memory of this state that is behind |
D:15.10 | to do here? With our continuing work of creation? Would this not | even be consistent with spirit existing in every living form from the |
D:16.9 | You are alive. You have form. You think and feel. You have | even been told that you would cease to be without the existence of |
D:16.12 | as if you still have a long way to go. You have often thought that | even though you may be done with learning, you don’t feel quite |
D:16.12 | be done with learning, you don’t feel quite complete, or possibly | even feel as if learning has not quite been accomplished in you. This |
D:16.18 | you thinking that you are “acting” as if you have changed, while | even within your new actions you see archetypes of the previously |
D:17.14 | you to the questions that were asked of you earlier, for they are | even more pertinent now. Do you think desire will still be with you |
D:17.21 | have traveled so far to reach. You are here and desire fills you, | even while you know the glory of having arrived. |
D:17.23 | Only in myth is this response to a specific question, but | even the specific questions of myth, when seen truly, were questions |
D:Day2.8 | of this feeling arises from the erroneous idea that you can fail, | even here. These are the temptations that confront those who have |
D:Day2.11 | Now is the time for acceptance, | even of these actions that you would rather not accept. They |
D:Day2.14 | We speak not of forgiveness or | even atonement here, for these have been thoroughly discussed |
D:Day3.2 | and you are most willing to have new insight, new information, and | even new discoveries, enter through your mind—because this is known |
D:Day3.4 | love. Most of you approached learning through the heart with | even more openness than you did new ideas about love, not realizing |
D:Day3.6 | There is one area that is greeted with | even more anger and more resistance in regard to learning of all |
D:Day3.7 | more peace, your mind that will accept comfort of a certain type, | even extending to a new comfortableness of being. You believe having |
D:Day3.8 | for your life will assist you in feeling more loved and possibly | even assist you in finding some one to love. You may believe that |
D:Day3.12 | thoroughly learned during the time of learning that letting it go, | even now, still torments you with worry and anger. It is the idea of |
D:Day3.13 | and not your gifts. Everything coming with a price. Abundance comes, | even to those gifted, only through the exploitation of gifts. |
D:Day3.13 | gifted, only through the exploitation of gifts. Abundance remains, | even to those born with it, only through the exploitation of others. |
D:Day3.14 | To think in such terms, and then to see such thoughts as | even capable of having spiritual value, is something you think of as |
D:Day3.14 | of as insane. There seems no remedy, and so you would rather not | even attempt an understanding of how things might be different. As |
D:Day3.14 | these ideas are still with most of you to one degree or another. | Even though you know these are false ideas, and in that knowing may |
D:Day3.14 | Even though you know these are false ideas, and in that knowing may | even say to yourself as you read them that you no longer think in |
D:Day3.17 | or abundance as being “given” when it is hard work to attain. Not | even when it seems to come from some event of luck or fate. We are |
D:Day3.21 | a position in which you feel you need to ask for money from others, | even from a bank, is seen as a dire situation indeed. This asking |
D:Day3.21 | indeed. This asking will likely be an ordeal of some consequence. | Even those who are seen by others as constant “takers,” unafraid to |
D:Day3.22 | of you truly think that money would not solve most of your problems. | Even those of you on this spiritual path think money is among the |
D:Day3.23 | of your life because it was the reality of the learning life. | Even if you are one of those others consider lucky, one of those who |
D:Day3.24 | not of your survival. It is the pattern of the ego’s survival, and | even though the ego is no longer with you, the pattern remains |
D:Day3.27 | accept a response to what you desire. Remember that we are headed | even beyond desire, and know that desire must first be met before you |
D:Day3.29 | abundance. You think you could more easily find love than money, | even those of you who have felt loveless for too long to contemplate. |
D:Day3.31 | 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 you joy |
D:Day3.45 | win, in this insane argument about abundance, is an acknowledgment, | even from God, that you do not have what you need, that you are |
D:Day3.46 | Even those of you who would claim to know this anger not, who would | |
D:Day3.46 | silence for God’s provision, are still waiting for provision. | Even those of you who have asked God for abundance, and opened |
D:Day3.46 | have asked God for abundance, and opened yourselves to receive it, | even those of you who have seen some improvement or evidence you |
D:Day3.50 | period and it, too, is not without value. You may have many good and | even inspired ideas within this time. You may feel as if you are on |
D:Day3.57 | Do you see the difference, | even here, in belief and acceptance? Can you begin to see acceptance |
D:Day4.8 | Even after the onset of language, children continue to learn without | |
D:Day4.25 | how many of the truths I expressed were still available to you, | even within your religious institutions. You feel, perhaps, that you |
D:Day4.29 | is not a tool that can be purchased through your right-actions or | even your longing and desire. For this access is not a tool but a |
D:Day4.31 | your breathing and how your concentration upon it affects it. | Even learned skills react to this type of concentration. A pianist |
D:Day4.34 | new. You realize that this is the purpose of our time together here | even though you have not put this purpose into words and put these |
D:Day5.1 | no longer needed once a door has been unlocked and passed through. | Even though it will not be permanently needed, however, this point of |
D:Day5.9 | as it is helpful in some instances to associate love with your heart | even though we have identified heart as the center of the Self rather |
D:Day5.9 | be helpful to have identified this chosen access point for unity | even while remembering it is not of the body alone. |
D:Day6.2 | too much anxiety and exclude too many, this is not the only, or | even the major reason for this chosen method. |
D:Day6.7 | reactions might validate the artist’s instinct and encourage | even more boldness. Negative reactions might cause the artist to |
D:Day6.8 | developed, and “good enough” or not, completion is necessary. It may | even be a commitment simply to practice, with the artist feeling no |
D:Day6.13 | acknowledge the difficulty some of you will seem to be experiencing | even while pointing out to you that life is life. |
D:Day6.23 | is in a position to be able to begin to perform with any certainty. | Even learning is accelerated by hands-on activities, by doing what |
D:Day7.14 | come of this. However, this is not an “if this, then that” situation | even if it may seem so. Is the process of breathing an “if this, then |
D:Day8.1 | subconsciously, the idea of removing yourself from normal life. | Even the conditions of the time of acceptance may not have cheered |
D:Day8.4 | is very unlikely, in truth, to stem from the details of your life. | Even so, you are not called to accept what you do not like, but to |
D:Day8.7 | no feelings of dislike, and in this confusion have been “trying” and | even “struggling” to accept what you do not like in order to be more |
D:Day8.14 | Even this type of seeing will have remnants of righteousness attached | |
D:Day8.14 | of it. It may still call up feelings of shame or irritation. It may | even still intrigue you if you are interested enough in the subject |
D:Day8.15 | crop up in your own speech, couched as something else, something | even worse than gossip. You will sigh, and reference something |
D:Day8.16 | you do not like gossip, or certain that you do not like your job, or | even certain that you do not like peas, is an inaccurate use of the |
D:Day8.16 | associated with the “term” of certainty will cause you to be | even less certain than you were before. You will be less certain in |
D:Day8.19 | of that which you do not like in yourself and others and | even to, at times, the false sense of certainty about your |
D:Day9.7 | freedom of feeling. And yet if the truth be admitted, you know that | even this is not quite true. You know that you censor your own |
D:Day9.12 | of the time of learning. It became an image in your mind, and maybe | even within your heart, through the process of learning. It arose |
D:Day9.21 | To represent an image is to become an image. To become an image, | even an idealized image, is to still become a false idol or even what |
D:Day9.21 | image, even an idealized image, is to still become a false idol or | even what is referred to in more common usage as a spiritual leader |
D:Day9.24 | upon your ability to accept that you are your ideal self. Yes, | even right now, with all your seeming imperfections. |
D:Day9.27 | Nothing, not | even the ego, has been able to keep you from expressing the beauty |
D:Day10.10 | type of intuition seems to come more as thought than as feeling, but | even so, it is your feelings about such thoughts that will often |
D:Day10.27 | be likely to think of them much differently than they were in life, | even while you are able to imagine them being peaceful and free of |
D:Day10.28 | would not have liked it? And do you not, in all honesty, think that | even in whatever form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not |
D:Day10.28 | whatever form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not like it, | even now, even beyond the grave? |
D:Day10.28 | form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not like it, even now, | even beyond the grave? |
D:Day10.29 | at times to take unpopular stands against popular leaders? Do not | even your ideas of saints and angels include concepts of their |
D:Day10.38 | As you can see, it is difficult for me, | even now, even in this final address to you as the man Jesus, to |
D:Day10.38 | As you can see, it is difficult for me, even now, | even in this final address to you as the man Jesus, to speak of |
D:Day11.2 | world of spirit, the world of separation with the world of union, | even while it does not unite the world of illusion with the world of |
D:Day15.13 | generated by the joining of spacious Selves? Do you fear your power | even though you have been told it cannot be misused? Do you feel |
D:Day18.1 | to facilitate the creation of change through a specific function | even while moving into the new as they do so. Each way is as needed |
D:Day19.12 | The fear of losing the self is still the primary fear, | even among those who have never found the self. They fear losing the |
D:Day20.1 | we begin preparation for your transition to level ground. We depart | even farther here from the guidance you have relied upon so that you |
D:Day20.2 | with the unknown and ceased to fear it. You are, perhaps, | even eager now, to move beyond the known to the unknown. You are |
D:Day21.1 | outside source. There are no outside sources of wisdom, guidance, or | even information. |
D:Day21.2 | This was true | even within the pattern of learning you have been so familiar with, |
D:Day21.2 | been so familiar with, for in order to learn, the source of wisdom, | even though you may have seen it as existing outside of yourself, had |
D:Day21.3 | The giver could make available but could not really teach, guide, or | even make information coherent without the action of the receiver. |
D:Day21.6 | learning but made it seem as if some had more and others less. But | even the pattern of learning had as its outcome the sameness of |
D:Day21.7 | source into the self where it is learned and then regurgitated or | even applied, has given way to an interaction that begins within and |
D:Day23.4 | The clouds of illusion, | even those that have gently surrounded our time together on the |
D:Day24.5 | words, a necessity for each step in the accomplishment of wholeness, | even while wholeness has always existed as potential. Do not forget, |
D:Day24.7 | form in order to begin again. Thus spirit is always becoming, | even when it must die to begin again. |
D:Day25.3 | an over-zealous ego-mind. Your ideas in this time may sound crazy, | even to your own ears. Let them come. Your feelings may be confused |
D:Day32.13 | While God is seen as the All Powerful, man is disenfranchised. | Even while God is perhaps seen in all things, or as the spirit by |
D:Day32.18 | to show you how you can be more like unto God in relationship, | even while you are God in being? |
D:Day35.7 | when speaking of your return to level ground is returning in a calm, | even, and equal manner, to the most elemental and fundamental aspects |
D:Day35.19 | in unity as has been your concept of God and man. Few of you have | even thought of creating as God creates. You have barely been able to |
D:Day36.5 | along as a “personal” experience rather than as experience itself. | Even experiences dictated by “fate” were of consequence only in your |
D:Day36.14 | majesty—has always been yours. The power to know or perceive— | even an unreal reality—has always been yours. |
D:Day37.14 | times seeing the connectedness of your life with that of others, but | even then, only on a limited scale. You have often not exercised even |
D:Day37.14 | but even then, only on a limited scale. You have often not exercised | even this limited power, believing that life just “happens” to you, |
D:Day37.15 | But more fundamentally than | even all of this, you might ask, if you are one in being with God, is |
D:Day37.15 | it being said that you are being God? That you have been being God | even within the limited parameters of life as you have known it? |
D:Day37.16 | in that you feel a bond, a link between heaven and earth, and | even some possibility of communication through prayer or other |
D:Day37.31 | being is most revealed when you cooperatively join with another or | even with yourself. When you cooperatively join, you move the |
D:Day39.2 | 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. Individuated |
D:Day39.4 | to give yourself an answer to who I Am to you in words, and | even if you are able to do so, you may not be able to share this |
D:Day39.11 | in relationship with “others” is an inescapable truism of your life. | Even these relationships of separation, the types of special and |
D:Day39.30 | and others. No god who has been projected is without attributes, | even gods such as these. |
D:Day40.6 | attributes of your being, what you might call your personality or | even who you are. As has been said before, you saw these attributes |
E.23 | that everything is different, you will not desire to turn back, not | even for the familiar thought processes that, although they have |
A.10 | in yet another way—the way of voice. Again it is not required nor | even recommended that these readings be interrupted by a search for |
A.23 | Facilitators can rely on this demonstration | even when many in a group may remain attached to the ways of the |
A.23 | demonstration will work for those who observe from a place of unity | even if it works not at all for the reader who cannot find it within |
A.28 | groups may need to become more flexible, meet less frequently, or | even disband in favor of former “classmates” meeting in more casual |
A.32 | The entrenched patterns of the past are difficult to dislodge | even when they have been recognized. Individuals can be encouraged |

C:4.23 | This difference is your salvation. Love is not like anything or | everything else that goes on here. And so your places to worship love |
C:4.26 | unprepared for by all your strategy and defenses. You prepare for | everything that goes on outside yourself and nothing that occurs |
C:5.1 | As the wholly divine, nothing is unknown. As the wholly human, | everything has been forgotten. Thus we begin to relearn the known as |
C:5.27 | little, and only when you realize this can you proceed to claiming | everything that is yours. |
C:5.32 | A day in which the sun shone on your world and you felt part of | everything. Every tree and every flower welcomed you. Every drop of |
C:5.32 | you as you place no judgment on the world, and in so doing join with | everything and extend your holiness across a world of grief, causing |
C:6.2 | reality. The heart that is the center of your being is the center of | everything that exists. This is reality. None of these things make |
C:6.6 | without love, for love creates like itself and is forever one with | everything that has been created. This simple realization will start |
C:6.7 | not alone in the world shows you that you are not meant to be alone. | Everything here is to help you learn to perceive correctly, and from |
C:6.8 | What is the opposite of separation but being joined in relationship? | Everything joined with you in relationship is holy because of what |
C:6.19 | of geography distinct from all the rest? How could it not encompass | everything and still be what it is: home to God’s beloved son and |
C:8.6 | on all at once or all feeling is shut down all at once. As with | everything else in this world, you strive for a balance that allows |
C:8.25 | Everything is held together by the thought system that gave birth to | |
C:8.25 | or the separated self. The thought system of the separated self sees | everything in separation. The thought system of God sees everything |
C:8.25 | self sees everything in separation. The thought system of God sees | everything in unity. God’s thought system is one of continuous |
C:9.7 | pleasure and pain, violence and gentleness. A desire to know | everything but only through its own effort, a desire to see |
C:9.7 | to know everything but only through its own effort, a desire to see | everything but only through its own eyes, a desire to be known but |
C:9.26 | strive to do—is a situation set up to provide relationship. Like | everything else you have remembered of creation and made in its |
C:9.44 | proper place in our discussion here. Look at patterns of abuse, in | everything from drugs and alcohol to physical or emotional |
C:10.9 | your brother. You will stay until you realize that God has given | everything already to everyone. |
C:10.10 | but state your willingness. A willingness to believe that you have | everything you need despite the “fact” that it does not seem so. Your |
C:10.27 | aware of your surroundings, and more aware that your body is part of | everything that is happening. There is your body and six more |
C:10.27 | all the “others” traveling it with you. You will feel more a part of | everything rather than less, and be surprised by this feeling. |
C:11.9 | matter to you that it is insane to think that He who has given you | everything seeks to take anything away from you. While you still view |
C:11.9 | for others. Yes, perhaps this God you think you know has given you | everything, but He can also take it all away, and in the end He |
C:12.1 | that a benign energy had been found that proved your connection to | everything in the universe, and gave it some fancy name, you would |
C:12.11 | flow and desert sands countless in number are blown endlessly about. | Everything seems to be what it is and what it has always been, but |
C:12.24 | within it. The son could not create unlike the Father who created | everything by extension of Himself. Neither the Father’s extension, |
C:14.15 | Everything that you consider valuable you want to keep. This makes | |
C:14.15 | of your world is fear. Were the foundation of your world love, | everything that you consider valuable you could not wait to share. |
C:14.16 | your effort would dissolve. This universe is yourself and you are | everything in it. Do you not believe that were you to perish |
C:14.17 | not a description of a universe? What is a universe but itself and | everything in it? Nothing would seem to exist outside of it, and so |
C:14.17 | Nothing would seem to exist outside of it, and so it must be unique. | Everything that would happen within the universe would depend upon it. |
C:14.21 | the greatest fear 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 |
C:14.21 | to be alone and separate fear most of all that which you have given | everything to attain. For what is loss of love but confirmation of |
C:16.10 | mind would call reason—a world in which there are two sides to | everything and two sides that oppose each other. How can this be |
C:16.14 | your safety, and even if you cannot guarantee your safety against | everything all of the time, you believe you can guarantee your safety |
C:17.6 | of dreaming during the time of sleep. Some may claim they know | everything there is to know about sleep and dreaming, being married, |
C:17.7 | phenomenon, you do not. You still make your plans and rail against | everything that interferes with them, even knowing in advance that |
C:18.2 | to go from here to there, instead of enclosing and encompassing | everything. The separation assumes that you can break the chain. This |
C:18.8 | awareness now abides, seemingly trapped upon the screen, viewing | everything from the two eyes of the one projected there. Again, this |
C:19.14 | the instant they become needs, which is why there are no needs. If | everything you need has been provided, having needs makes no sense. |
C:20.47 | your view, you deem that expansion unrealistic. You cannot do | everything. You cannot effect world peace. You can barely keep your |
C:22.9 | Yet it is the passing through that creates the intersection. | Everything within your world and your day must pass through you in |
C:22.9 | you in order to gain reality. While you might think of this as | everything outside of yourself, please, when thinking of this, use |
C:22.9 | please, when thinking of this, use the words I have provided: | everything within your world. In the act of pass-through you assign |
C:22.9 | within your world. In the act of pass-through you assign meaning to | everything within your world. The meaning you assign becomes the |
C:22.10 | Further, it is the part of you through which | everything within your world passes and your awareness of it that |
C:22.10 | are much more like unto the layers of the onion than the globe, with | everything within your world needing to pass through layers with a |
C:22.16 | Imagine yourself brought to such a halt and examined apart from | everything else within your world. Anyone wanting to learn anything |
C:22.17 | You have made of yourself a laboratory where you bring | everything for examination, categorization, testing, and filing away. |
C:22.17 | and filing away. This is the scenario that separates you from | everything else within your world. Everything has meaning only |
C:22.17 | scenario that separates you from everything else within your world. | Everything has meaning only according to what it means to you and not |
C:22.20 | if you are shirking some primal responsibility to assign meaning to | everything. Rather than resisting this, strive to cease giving |
C:24.1 | weepiness and what you would term emotionalism. You may feel as if | everything makes you want to cry because everything will touch you, |
C:24.1 | You may feel as if everything makes you want to cry because | everything will touch you, each lesson will feel tender. Unlearning |
C:25.18 | you might expect to happen will happen. While you may expect that | everything will take on greater importance, the reverse will at first |
C:31.19 | to remember your Self, you need a means of learning who you are. | Everything that has ever happened in your life has happened as a |
C:31.23 | is the means through which the holy relationship you have with | everything is revealed in truth. This truth lies within everything |
C:31.23 | have with everything is revealed in truth. This truth lies within | everything that exists, as it lies within you. As you learn that who |
C:32.2 | oneness of the Trinity. The same is true of all relationship with | everything. The way in which you experience relationship with each |
T1:4.16 | and love. It is always available. It is the gift given in | everything you look upon and see without the obstacle of the |
T1:4.17 | with your own views. Others of you feel it necessary to interpret | everything on your own. Without further discussion, you would see |
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 headed |
T1:5.8 | you must move into a state that is real. Nothing is as real as | everything, and is what some of you will or have experienced as a |
T2:3.1 | with the one mind and one heart, in union, in other words, with God. | Everything you have ever wanted to be is. Everything you have ever |
T2:3.1 | in other words, with God. Everything you have ever wanted to be is. | Everything you have ever thought or imagined is and is reflected in |
T2:3.2 | the place 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 |
T2:3.7 | that brought life into existence. The seeds of creation exist in | everything and provide for continuing creation. Thus the seeds of all |
T3:6.1 | become like unto a plague among you. While many of you see it not, | everything you do is based upon desire for reward. This is your |
T3:6.4 | of a self the ego is not. Thus has the ego had a self to blame for | everything, including your very existence. This blame is as old as |
T3:9.4 | within the universe of truth and that the universe of truth contains | everything within its benevolent embrace. No one stands beyond the |
T3:10.1 | it with meaning rather than allowing the meaning that exists in | everything to be remembered or known. Thus are more practical lessons |
T3:13.5 | laws that were made to perpetuate the idea that you must pay for | everything, or earn everything that you would care to make your own, |
T3:13.5 | to perpetuate the idea that you must pay for everything, or earn | everything that you would care to make your own, and then that you |
T3:16.12 | detriment to your new beginning. These temptations relate to | everything you fear to do because of the consequences your actions |
T4:1.25 | They are in the desperate throes of wanting to experience | everything before they allow themselves to directly experience the |
T4:2.21 | with what it brings. The power to observe what is relates to | everything that exists with you, including the days that make up your |
T4:3.4 | Original intent has | everything to do with the nature of things for original intent is |
T4:3.8 | of love, many of you will make one final judgment in which you find | everything to be good and full of love. Once all has been judged with |
T4:5.3 | of this one Source of energy, and thus this one energy existing in | everything, and creating the life in everything, is |
T4:5.3 | this one energy existing in everything, and creating the life in | everything, is Christ-consciousness. It is also what we have been |
T4:5.6 | God can thus be seen as the All of | everything and life, or the Body of Christ, as all that makes up the |
T4:5.6 | as all that makes up the seemingly individual parts of the All of | everything. Christ-consciousness is your awareness of this. |
T4:8.5 | Creation in form had a starting point. This is the nature of | everything that lives in form. It has a starting point from which it |
T4:8.14 | is synonymous with creation? You like to think that God knows | everything, and God surely knows everything that is. But |
T4:8.14 | You like to think that God knows everything, and God surely knows | everything that is. But consciousness of what is, the |
T4:8.16 | consistent with your true nature and your purpose here. To learn | everything there is to know about even one subject, and to call that |
T4:10.3 | along your self-centered path of learning, you have come to see | everything in your life as exactly what it has been—a means of |
T4:12.36 | Make no mistake that what is asked of us is | everything. What is asked is our total willingness to abandon the |
T4:12.36 | the new. But also make no mistake that what is given to us is | everything. All the power of creation is released onto us. Let us |
D:1.24 | now must come to see only as a representation of your Self. You are | everything and everyone. All that you see is you. You stand not |
D:4.12 | patterns include the observable forms that make up your world, | everything from the planet on which you exist to the stars in the |
D:4.23 | What has this to do with structure and parameters? | Everything. You cannot deny the old and remain in the prison of the |
D:5.9 | Thus must it be now with | everything in your world. Everywhere you look the lie of false |
D:5.10 | previously have thought of as inconsequential in the light of truth. | Everything given represents the truth. |
D:5.11 | You will not arrive at the truth through thinking about what | everything means. This is the old way that led to so much |
D:5.13 | for such is a desire to think through once again the meaning of | everything and to have a tool to help you do so. This would assume |
D:5.22 | call, to acceptance. See the importance of this acceptance to | everything that is still to come. Hesitate no longer. Let your |
D:6.6 | —and it is—it is not perhaps as you have previously seen it, for | everything that exists in form is of the same Source. Even those |
D:6.6 | call the seeds of the truly real, or the energy of creation, in | everything that exists in form. |
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 true |
D:6.27 | the state of Christ-consciousness, sharing in unity, the All of | Everything. So these two states, the state of form and the state of |
D:7.27 | shared consciousness, the circle of unity. In truth, this circle is | everything, the All of All, the universe, God. But just as the Earth |
D:7.27 | 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 imagine |
D:7.29 | 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:11.11 | you are, is your thoughts—thoughts that need an explanation for | everything, and an explanation that makes sense in terms of the world |
D:12.19 | as I am not other than you. Union includes you, just as the All of | Everything, the whole of wholeness, the one of oneness, include you. |
D:13.5 | be given in a state of wholeness. You have previously learned of | everything in parts and details and particulars. While you are |
D:14.5 | Questions such as, “What might this situation look like if I forgot | everything I have previously known about similar situations, and |
D:16.11 | for these principles of creation not to be constantly occurring in | everything that lives because all that lives, lives because of |
D:Day3.13 | The idea of nothing being truly free. Not you, and not your gifts. | Everything coming with a price. Abundance comes, even to those |
D:Day4.17 | Let me assure you of what you already know, that | everything about my life was purposeful. That challenge was meant |
D:Day4.44 | this in parts. Once full access has been revealed, what is yours is | everything. But you will be different. |
D:Day5.22 | claim ownership. Effort, as translated by the ego, was about turning | everything that was given into what “you” could only work hard to |
D:Day11.6 | relationship is All because it is all that is knowable. The All of | Everything cannot be known any more than can nothingness. The All of |
D:Day11.6 | Everything cannot be known any more than can nothingness. The All of | Everything is unknowable. Thus you are the knowable of God. You are |
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 be the |
D:Day11.6 | 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:Day11.6 | exists in relationship knows that it exists. Thus relationship is | everything. Relationship is the truth. Relationship is consciousness. |
D:Day11.7 | man. It is the relationship that allows the awareness that God is | everything. It has been called wisdom, Sophia, spirit. It is that |
D:Day12.4 | The space of the One Self is | everything. Space is neither divided nor separated nor occupied by |
D:Day13.6 | and apparent in this boundary-less Self of form. This Self is | everything and everyone. Because it is everything and everyone it is |
D:Day13.6 | Self of form. This Self is everything and everyone. Because it is | everything and everyone it is also the self of the void, the void of |
D:Day14.1 | Self. Acceptance is necessary because escape is not possible. | Everything that is, is with us, which is why we are the accomplished |
D:Day15.1 | the dialogue. When you fully realize that you are in-formed by | everything and everyone in creation, you will have entered the |
D:Day15.2 | To inform is to make known. Thus you can be made known by | everything and everyone in creation just as everything and everyone |
D:Day15.2 | you can be made known by everything and everyone in creation just as | everything and everyone in creation can be made known by you. We have |
D:Day15.2 | you to come to know it. The unknown and the known exist together in | everything and everyone. Thus your willingness to be made known and |
D:Day15.21 | because entering the dialogue is an all-encompassing state in which | everything and everyone interacts with you through the exchange of |
D:Day16.1 | Everything that can’t be seen but is, is consciousness. Accepting | |
D:Day16.1 | Everything that can’t be seen but is, is consciousness. Accepting | everything that can’t be seen, including the unknown, is full |
D:Day16.11 | This relates to | everything, not only your response to sickness or crisis situations, |
D:Day16.14 | thus does not include either love or fear. This is because love is | everything and fear is nothing. |
D:Day16.15 | feeling and all thought, all of which were of love because love is | everything. All feeling and all thoughts of love extended into the |
D:Day16.16 | them with love, the spacious Self will be whole, for it will embrace | everything—as love, which is everything—embraces it. This is |
D:Day16.16 | will be whole, for it will embrace everything—as love, which is | everything—embraces it. This is paradise re-found. |
D:Day17.2 | nor man but the relationship that allows the awareness that God is | everything. You have been told Christ-consciousness has also been |
D:Day17.3 | God, the All of All. God is only the all-knowing because God is in | everything and everyone. Consciousness itself is not knowing but |
D:Day18.2 | represent God and Christ-consciousness, the extension of God. God is | everything in heaven and on earth and is in everything on heaven and |
D:Day18.2 | extension of God. God is everything in heaven and on earth and is in | everything on heaven and on earth. Thus, God represents the world |
D:Day20.7 | One Self in its many expressions. You are the known and the unknown. | Everything is both the known and the unknown. |
D:Day21.6 | in union as a channel of the divine life force that exists in | everything and everyone. There is nothing channeled to one that isn’t |
D:Day22.3 | another indicator of the uniqueness of channeling. The universal is | everything. The channel is what, from among everything, is allowed |
D:Day22.3 | The universal is everything. The channel is what, from among | everything, is allowed reception and expression. Some will find many |
D:Day22.8 | you awaiting your expression. Awareness of union with God exists in | everything. It is there in every tree and every flower, in every |
D:Day26.7 | It is the culmination of all that has come before, the All of | Everything realized in a single heartbeat, a single instant of |
D:Day32.18 | be the consciousness we all share? Could not God’s relationship to | everything be what differentiates God from us and us from God? So |
D:Day32.19 | own? Could you see that God’s power stems from His relationship to | everything rather than from His being? This is the easiest way to say |
D:Day32.20 | is powerful—in relationship. Because God is in relationship with | everything, God is All Powerful. Because you are in a state of |
D:Day33.7 | whole, and that whole is love. In other words, every relationship, | everything that comes to you, every event, every situation, is of |
D:Day33.15 | we become powerful. To realize that you are in relationship with | everything and everyone all of the time, is to realize the full |
D:Day33.15 | of your power. You cannot realize that you are in relationship with | everything and everyone all of the time and retain the desire to use |
D:Day33.15 | is impossible. The realization that you are in relationship with | everything and everyone all of the time is the realization of oneness |
D:Day34.2 | the same. In relationship, the difference between all and nothing is | everything. So too is it with creation and destruction. Without |
D:Day34.2 | In relationship, the difference between creation and destruction is | everything. |
D:Day34.3 | is needed to create difference. However, relationship with | everything creates sameness—or the very oneness in being that we |
D:Day35.1 | relationship to God, who is your being, you can know relationship to | everything, because in this one relationship, you are in relationship |
D:Day35.3 | relationship, relationship is also God. God is the relationship of | everything to everything. |
D:Day35.3 | relationship is also God. God is the relationship of everything to | everything. |
D:Day35.4 | God, that others are one with you, that God is the relationship of | everything to everything, or that you are the relationship of |
D:Day35.4 | are one with you, that God is the relationship of everything to | everything, or that you are the relationship of everything to God. |
D:Day35.4 | of everything to everything, or that you are the relationship of | everything to God. Everything that is shared with God is shared with |
D:Day35.4 | everything, or that you are the relationship of everything to God. | Everything that is shared with God is shared with all because God is |
D:Day35.4 | with God is shared with all because God is in relationship with | everything. It has been said that when you reach awareness of the |
D:Day35.5 | unaware of your being that you were not sharing the relationship of | everything with God? As long as you have known that you are a self, |
D:Day35.17 | creation is continuous and ongoing. It is continuous and ongoing in | everything that has been created, including you. This does not mean, |
D:Day35.21 | of the All of All. How can you choose when what you create is | everything? |
D:Day36.7 | When you start over, knowing that what you have been given is | everything, your creatorship of your experience is a totally |
D:Day36.10 | and nothing without relationship. In relationship, the difference is | everything. This same difference is what is meant when it is said |
D:Day36.10 | your awareness of unity and relationship, it was as if God was | everything and you were nothing, or as if you were everything and God |
D:Day36.10 | was as if God was everything and you were nothing, or as if you were | everything and God was nothing. But just as with all and nothing, |
D:Day36.11 | being—simply existing at the opposite end of the continuum of | everything that is creation. |
D:Day36.14 | or instinctively—has always been yours. The power to create— | everything from weapons of mass destruction to cathedrals of towering |
D:Day37.4 | household, in a city, in a state, in a country, in a world, wherein | everything has a separate name and purpose. In a sense, this is the |
D:Day37.9 | you want to believe that there is a compassionate being in charge of | everything, looking out for you, there to help when you are in need. |
D:Day37.14 | yourself, God, and fate to be benevolent, or you may believe that | everything, including yourself, works against you. You may rely more |
D:Day37.21 | God is being in unity and relationship with | everything. Thus God knows you. God is one in being with you because |
D:Day37.21 | you. God is one in being with you because you are one aspect of | everything. As one being in unity and relationship with everything |
D:Day37.21 | aspect of everything. As one being in unity and relationship with | everything God is one with every thought and every feeling. God is |
D:Day39.14 | the big bang, the explosion of creation. It is all at once. All of | Everything. Yet in relationship. |
D:Day39.46 | rest. But you will still know all of these. You will know the All of | Everything and the emptiness of nothing and our relationship will |
D:Day39.47 | another. We create from the field of the possible which must include | everything. |
D:Day40.13 | man. It is the relationship that allows the awareness that God is | everything. It has been called wisdom, Sophia, spirit. It is that |
D:Day40.27 | Does it become less difficult if you remember who I Am? That I Am | everything being love? This is not the same as saying you are who you |
E.10 | You can do | everything you did before, or nothing you did before, all with the |
E.11 | You will not realize that | everything has changed until you “realize” or “make real” that |
E.12 | that you have chosen nothing until and unless you realize that | everything has not changed. Let this realization come too if it must. |
E.14 | to give up this thinking will be paramount to your realization that | everything has changed or that nothing has changed. |
E.16 | into your own being. The cooperative relationship of all with | everything abides within you now. You do not, and cannot decide what |
E.23 | long, however, to overcome, for once you have begun to realize that | everything is different, you will not desire to turn back, not even |

C:1.7 | It is as if you have carried your heavy luggage with you | everywhere just in case you might need something. Now you are |

C:3.11 | it will provide an improvement to what has been before. You look for | evidence that shows that if you behave in a certain way certain |

C:9.34 | what you will. Now you look upon this world with guilt and see it as | evidence of your evil nature. It reinforces your belief that you have |

C:10.5 | maladies away, and when they do not succeed they see this as further | evidence of their entrenchment in the body. Beware all attempts to |
C:10.6 | not mean it no longer exists. Yet your separated self would cite all | evidence of its failure to be other than separate and be quick to |
C:12.3 | have tried this idea called love, and all of you believe you have | evidence that it is not the answer at all. What is your evidence? |
C:12.3 | you have evidence that it is not the answer at all. What is your | evidence? Your own failure to be happy and the unhappiness of the |
C:13.6 | “proof” that, while not scientific or verifiable, will offer you the | evidence you seek to confirm the truth of what you are being told |

T1:8.5 | but as I Am. Does this not make sense, even in your human terms of | evolution? You are the resurrected and the life. |
T4:1.14 | The only answer might seem to lie in the laws of | evolution, the slow learning and adaptive process of man. Surely this |

D:Day3.28 | the ego-self, a trick that provided the small rewards of time-bound | evolution, the small rewards that would keep you assured of progress |

examination (3) |

C:4.2 | love will provide for you through its acquisition. This is a classic | example of not recognizing that love is. |
C:9.22 | That your sights are set on the care of the body alone is another | example of choosing an opposite for replacement. |
C:9.23 | in struggling against what you have for what you have not. Only one | example is needed to clarify the predicament in which you have placed |
C:9.27 | Let us return to the | example of feeding your sister’s hunger and quenching your brother’s |
C:10.15 | I am here to teach you once again because I was the | example life. Do you believe that when I walked the earth I was a |

C:21.8 | meaning. In extreme instances this is considered moral conflict, an | example being the individual knowing the “right” thing to do but |
C:22.20 | meaning. Start quite simply. Go from the broad to the specific. For | example, when you walk out your door in the morning you might |
C:23.9 | of relationship having to do with physical proximity, think of this | example. Now imagine communities of faith. Around the world, people |
C:26.4 | Again I offer my life as the | example life and reiterate the message expressed in A Course in |
C:29.10 | which you would imitate from creation. In work too you will find an | example of this. For you all know that work and service somehow go |
T1:2.13 | This response needs to at first be seen in two parts. An | example illustrates. To look at a sunset is to see an object, the |

T1:3.12 | urgency of the need to leave fear behind. Can you not, from this one | example of your fear of miracles, see the glaring reality of all you |

T4:12.11 | and sisters, is the learned wisdom of the past. Let me give you an | example that relates to the state of rebellion that was discussed |
T4:12.12 | This | example arose from one of those already gathered who was questioning |
T4:12.13 | Is this not a good | example of the learned wisdom that needs to be left behind? But what |

D:4.4 | Prison is an excellent | example of a system you created with your faulty perception. As with |
D:5.5 | Let me provide you with an | example that illustrates how one aspect of what was created in the |
D:5.8 | to take on the properties of the truth. Think of the ego again as an | example here. The ego but seemed to be who you were for a time. Now |

T2:6.7 | essential 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 |
T2:6.7 | beliefs in known, observable, facts. You may have regarded these | exercises as silly or you may have thought of the lessons of physics |
T2:6.7 | of the lessons of physics and felt as if you understood these | exercises on an intellectual level. But what these exercises have |
T2:6.7 | understood these exercises on an intellectual level. But what these | exercises have prepared you for is an acceptance of the ongoing |
T2:9.2 | practices more commonly thought of as tools might be meditation, | exercises of the body such as yoga, or exercises of the mind such as |
T2:9.2 | as tools might be meditation, exercises of the body such as yoga, or | exercises of the mind such as affirmations. These tools are all means |
T3:20.10 | you to just another version of being good or mentally healthy, to | exercises in visualization or positive thinking. I am calling you to |

C:23.27 | Attempting to | exert control over learning situations is a reflection of belief that |
exerted (1) |

D:Day7.12 | This occurs as you give up the control you have but thought you | exerted over your life and its circumstances, and live in a state of |
exerting (1) |
||
D:Day33.13 | you each have claimed some type of power for yourself, some means of | exerting that power, which is the same as saying some means of |
exertion (1) |

C:5.22 | A simple solution within your world, a solution that requires no | exertion on your part, is seen to be of little value. The individual, |
exhale (1) |

D:Day5.26 | But the air you breathe is “of” you. You may think of the air you | exhale as being more “of” you, but there is no more or less to the |
exhaled (1) |

D:Day4.8 | like the intake of breath, to be taken in and given out. Inhaled and | exhaled. Inhaled and expressed. |

C:3.7 | that you have determined that a pencil should have, few people can | exhibit the qualities you have predetermined that they should possess |
D:Day7.9 | your mind’s acceptance of the condition of fear that led the body to | exhibit the conditions of fear in the time of learning. Thus it is |
D:Day7.9 | Thus it is the mind’s acceptance of love that will lead the body to | exhibit the effects of love in the time of acceptance. |

T2:1.4 | regarding desire, you may still fear your desire. Despite many | exhortations that your purpose here is to be who you are, you may |
exist (234) |

C:P.4 | to have no audience at all if these are the only two states that | exist. Since it is impossible to be part spirit and part ego, |
C:P.27 | God does, however, have a son, a child, an offspring, who must | exist in some form like unto the Father. Within the story of the |
C:P.40 | the same being as the caterpillar. The caterpillar did not cease to | exist; it simply transformed into what it always was. Thus it would |
C:1.3 | as essential to your being as the heart to the body. You would not | exist without love. It is there even if you are as unaware of it as |
C:1.3 | Self even though you do not realize that without love you would not | exist. |
C:1.4 | creating. Because of the extension of God’s thought of love, you | exist. I exist with you in this selfsame thought. You do not |
C:1.4 | Because of the extension of God’s thought of love, you exist. I | exist with you in this selfsame thought. You do not understand this |
C:1.15 | existence in a world apart from your Creator. This world does not | exist. And you do not exist apart from your Creator. Your yearning |
C:1.15 | apart from your Creator. This world does not exist. And you do not | exist apart from your Creator. Your yearning for love is what tells |
C:2.19 | you are what you have learned, there is no room in which the ego can | exist and, banished from the home you made for it, it slowly dies. |
C:3.2 | attempting to learn what they are. They are the same as you. All | exist within you. You are the universe itself. |
C:3.3 | disappear, or cease to be. There is no human condition that does not | exist in all humans. It is completely impossible for one to have what |
C:5.17 | outside and is illusion, for what is not one with you does not | exist. |
C:6.2 | Your brother does not | exist apart from you, nor you from your brother. This is reality. |
C:6.8 | you cannot be separate, all these factors that oppose your reality | exist only in opposition to it. This is what you chose to create when |
C:6.13 | hurry on to where the challenge of a new success and new reason to | exist awaits. The carrot of fulfillment you hold before yourself when |
C:6.14 | a choice to renounce illusion, these are the only real choices that | exist, and they do not extend into your illusions but only into |
C:6.20 | In honesty will you admit an envy, an awareness that they still | exist, but without the pain and burden of the body, without the |
C:7.16 | you when saved for yourself alone as they would be if they did not | exist. They bring you not to truth or happiness, nor can they buy you |
C:8.12 | no goal but your only reality, the natural state in which you would | exist but for your decision to reject your reality and your true |
C:8.13 | and realize the unity that is your home? Were it possible to | exist in unity and still withhold, unity would be a mockery. Who |
C:9.4 | you. In your memory of creation you have remembered that all things | exist in relationship, and that all things happen in relationship. |
C:9.12 | hold. The memories of your heart are the strongest and purest that | exist, and their remembrance will help to still your mind and reveal |
C:9.15 | easy to see that neither the desire to control nor to protect would | exist without the layer of fear that comes before it. |
C:10.3 | What you truly do not understand is wholeness. All things | exist in wholeness, including the thought system that you made to |
C:10.3 | of yourself—has no thought system separate from your own and must | exist in the reality where you think you are. |
C:10.4 | but in the eternal wholeness in which God and you together | exist in truth. |
C:10.16 | You have not been told that the body does not | exist, only that it is not you. Like all tools you made, it is |
C:11.18 | You | exist, quite simply, because of your relationship with love. Love is |
C:12.15 | What this Course is saying is that at some point that does not | exist in time, God’s son made the choice for separation. Whether |
C:12.17 | many that you could never keep track of them all, and yet they still | exist within you and do not splinter off and become something on |
C:12.20 | the concept of fear, and realized that without fear they would not | exist, so too is it with the external aspect of life. Without the |
C:12.20 | original idea of separation, the external aspect of life would not | exist. Just as fear is not real although it seems to be, separation |
C:12.21 | occurring to you. Just as an idea of yours, once born, continues to | exist, so too, did this idea of separation. But just as your ideas do |
C:12.23 | He knows it not, and because He knows it not, it does not | exist. Because He knows it not, He has not been hurt by it. He knows |
C:13.12 | leveled any hurts on you or anyone else. No reason for guilt will | exist within this memory. No shame or fear is here, and no grievances |
C:14.5 | order to gain life? What creator would create a world not meant to | exist in harmony? Harmony is life. What creator would create a |
C:14.16 | be meant to be because you are, and you cannot fathom that you would | exist at all if there were not a reason for you to do so. |
C:14.17 | is a universe but itself and everything in it? Nothing would seem to | exist outside of it, and so it must be unique. Everything that would |
C:14.18 | for the maintenance of your body, because without it you would not | exist. And when you cease to exist, so does your universe. The lights |
C:14.18 | body, because without it you would not exist. And when you cease to | exist, so does your universe. The lights will be turned out upon it |
C:15.1 | world you see but reflects this desire. Love’s opposite would not | exist but for your invitation of it. All hate, guilt, shame, and envy |
C:18.4 | changed the nature of the universe and made it possible for life to | exist separately and alone with no relationship, no connection, no |
C:18.8 | that cannot take you away from the internal world where you | exist in wholeness, a link in the chain of creation. Imagine again |
C:18.10 | is to alter what you experience. The state in which you now | exist was not only unbelievable but also inconceivable to you in your |
C:18.16 | where then is the mind? The center is but the Source in which all | exist as one mind. To say this to you before we loosened some of your |
C:19.1 | the whole range of experiences available to a separate being would | exist. |
C:20.2 | world, the universe, the all of all in whose embrace you literally | exist. Feel the gentleness and the love. Drink in the safety and the |
C:20.12 | We | exist in the embrace of love like the layers of light that form a |
C:20.17 | The world does not | exist apart from you, and so you must realize your compassionate |
C:20.17 | you, sharing the one heartbeat. The heartbeat of the world does not | exist apart from God. The heartbeat of the world is thus alive and |
C:20.20 | possible to have a concept of wholeness, of all, and for it not to | exist? And how could it exist apart from you? Oneness with Christ, |
C:20.20 | of wholeness, of all, and for it not to exist? And how could it | exist apart from you? Oneness with Christ, dear brother and sister, |
C:20.21 | air, the ocean and her surf, all live by the universal heartbeat and | exist within the embrace. Is not all you can imagine holy when you |
C:20.22 | exists within the embrace. How could you be less than sacred? You | exist in holiness. |
C:22.7 | examples, the partnership creates something that did not previously | exist by providing a function and a purpose for each. In the case of |
C:23.2 | it is your nature to seek for more, it is also the nature of life to | exist in relationship and to become known through relationship. This |
C:27.10 | and who God is? Is it such a huge leap to go from saying you only | exist in relationship to you only exist as relationship? You think it |
C:27.10 | leap to go from saying you only exist in relationship to you only | exist as relationship? You think it is, and feel yourself further |
C:31.35 | You do not | exist outside of relationship, just as your mind does not exist |
C:31.35 | You do not exist outside of relationship, just as your mind does not | exist outside of oneness. Your experience here is but an extension of |
T1:2.8 | often throughout A Course of Love, an alternative exists. It did not | exist when you knew not of it and so your attempts at learning have |
T1:2.10 | thoughts of your ego-mind were ruled by the nature of the body. To | exist as creatures whose only thoughts are of survival of the body is |
T1:2.10 | as creatures whose only thoughts are of survival of the body is to | exist in a lower order. The laws of the body have thus subjected you |
T1:4.6 | gifts as being given to all. This is thus a call to realize that you | exist in relationship, that your relationship calls for a response, |
T1:5.9 | that make the in-between state of the illusion in which you now | exist seem real. I must make a distinction here, between the |
T1:5.9 | Your heart as we have defined it many times within this Course, must | exist in the thought system that is real to you. The thought system |
T1:6.2 | in another way, prayer reproduces the truth and allows the truth to | exist as it is. Prayer does this because it is the act of consciously |
T1:7.2 | chosen a form, and more accurately put a “lesser” form in which to | exist, and that that choice includes the choice to suffer. This |
T1:7.2 | and on the other hand there is light. One or the other must | exist at a given time, but never both. Thus the absence of good |
T1:7.2 | does not accept that there is only one reality and that it must | exist where you are. |
T1:8.10 | serve what you would have come to be. The separated self could not | exist in separation and so created a way in which other separated |
T1:9.2 | about this union and the separation of male and female continues to | exist only in form. |
T1:9.9 | resurrect into a new form, you would also; that this new form would | exist within you; that you would become the Body of Christ and giving |
T2:2.9 | willingness is necessary. Only in your own willingness does anything | exist because only in your willingness is the power of creation |
T2:3.7 | of love that brought life into existence. The seeds of creation | exist in everything and provide for continuing creation. Thus the |
T2:3.7 | for continuing creation. Thus the seeds of all that you can express | exist “within” you, in the creation that is you. The power of |
T2:4.9 | While two sets of thoughts and feelings | exist, the only way to come to peace with them is through an |
T2:6.8 | fully accomplished within its seed and yet grows and changes, you | exist fully accomplished within the seed that is the Christ in you |
T2:6.8 | form and action of all kinds are but expressions of what already | exist within the seed of the already accomplished. |
T2:6.9 | your recognition of the state of unity. It is a recognition that you | exist in unity outside of the pattern of time. Miracles create an |
T2:6.10 | As I have already said that your heart must | exist where you think you are, you can begin to see that this change |
T2:6.10 | heart join in unity in the present, in the here and now, so that you | exist—even within form—as the only Son of God, the Christ, the |
T2:7.5 | from you. The relationship is the source of your unity. That you | exist in relationship with all is a belief that you must now |
T2:11.5 | by untruth. The truth simply exists as love exists and as you | exist. When we say something is, this is what it is of which we |
T2:11.12 | Separate things must still | exist in relationship. This is the key to understanding the truth of |
T2:11.12 | ego has put forth would have been a true image. But as life cannot | exist apart from relationship, this choice was not available and did |
T2:11.13 | as a state that exists rather than as a state that does not | exist. If you exist as a separate being but your being is contingent |
T2:11.13 | state that exists rather than as a state that does not exist. If you | exist as a separate being but your being is contingent upon |
T2:11.13 | Is this not similar to saying that a living human body does not | exist without its heart? Is not what is essential to a living body a |
T2:11.13 | While this illustration is not attempting to say that life does not | exist apart from the body, it is attempting to reveal, in an easily |
T2:11.15 | the ego is real, you will feel as if there are two identities that | exist within you and you will see yourself as doing battle in |
T2:11.15 | between Christ and the ego, but you will perceive that such battles | exist. You will be prone to calling upon the Christ as your higher |
T2:13.5 | Gratitude is the recognition of the state of grace in which you | exist here and remain forever beyond all time and the passing of all |
T2:13.5 | but is given and received in equal exchange by all who in creation | exist together in oneness eternal. |
T3:1.1 | This is the only way in which the personal self will continue to | exist following the completion and the integration of this Course. |
T3:1.6 | became an ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal self cannot help but | exist in an unreal reality. It is as if you have been an actor upon a |
T3:1.8 | this is the only way in which the personal self will now continue to | exist. This statement implies and acknowledges your previous belief |
T3:1.10 | To say that the personal self will now | exist only as the self you present to others is to say that the |
T3:2.1 | What purpose would it seem to serve to have anything | exist only as a representation? We might think of this in terms of |
T3:3.7 | new thought system must be wholehearted. They cannot be beliefs that | exist only in your mind, a new philosophy to be applied to life. They |
T3:3.7 | only in your mind, a new philosophy to be applied to life. They must | exist in your heart. And how can they exist in the heart of an |
T3:3.7 | be applied to life. They must exist in your heart. And how can they | exist in the heart of an unlovable self? |
T3:5.1 | While you have just been told that you now | exist in a state of emptiness, this is not a state to be feared. Yet |
T3:6.4 | is as old as time itself and the cause of bitterness being able to | exist, even within your hearts. |
T3:6.5 | While the untrue cannot | exist with the true, what I am calling here bitterness is all that |
T3:6.6 | the bitter herbs of scripture illustrated. Many rights and rituals | exist for the purification of the unclean but I assure you that you |
T3:9.1 | It is an idea that says all that love would not create does not | exist. It is an idea that says that if you live from love and within |
T3:9.3 | Ideas of love, or the truth, are joined in unity and | exist in relationship. All of the ideas within the house of illusion |
T3:10.16 | of illusion still exists, you will continue to encounter those who | exist within it. While you continue to encounter those who exist in |
T3:10.16 | those who exist within it. While you continue to encounter those who | exist in the house of illusion you will continue to encounter |
T3:11.1 | is an illusionary self. This could be further stated as those who | exist in the house of illusion are aware of the personal self alone |
T3:11.10 | those living in illusion or their reality. Their reality does not | exist. Believing in the reality of illusion will never make it the |
T3:11.12 | think of yourself as different than your brothers and sisters. All | exist in the House of Truth. The house of illusion exists within the |
T3:11.15 | of course, continue to be aware that very few realize that they | exist in the House of Truth. You will, in truth, for quite some time, |
T3:12.2 | You | exist within the time of consciousness of the personal self. Thus we |
T3:12.2 | time, they are eternal, eternal levels of consciousness that still | exist and have always existed. |
T3:12.3 | Temptations of the human experience | exist only in time. What we are about to do is move the human |
T3:12.5 | already been stated, in order to remove the limits that continue to | exist, we must remove all time-bound temptations. |
T3:12.7 | even dared to dream of is a state in which only God’s laws of love | exist even within the realm of physicality. What this means is that |
T3:13.1 | and our new purpose, that of the miracle that will allow you to | exist as who you are in human form, we may proceed unencumbered by |
T3:14.1 | from the new thought system. The new thought system will still | exist within your mind and heart, as nothing can now take this memory |
T3:16.15 | behind you is the idea of the holy relationship in which all | exist in unity and within the protection of love’s embrace. If you |
T3:17.1 | but there was a need for the Self to have an observable form and to | exist in relationship with others with observable forms. This was |
T3:17.3 | As soon as spirit took on form, man began to | exist in time because there became a need for a beginning and an |
T3:17.5 | of untruth in the mechanism of time, to the world in which you now | exist. It may seem ridiculous to say that the untrue can be learned, |
T3:18.3 | to serve our new purpose of the miracle that will allow you to | exist as who you are in human form. See what perfect sense this makes |
T3:19.12 | beliefs and ideas led to the old reality, a reality that will still | exist for some even after it changes completely for you. |
T3:20.1 | Illusion has at its base a false cause and so no effects that | exist in truth. Now, your every thought and action will have effect, |
T3:21.5 | Your real Self exists in truth. It does not | exist in illusion. |
T3:21.7 | The only means for the personal self and the true Self to | exist together is for the truth to be lived in time. In order for the |
T3:21.11 | to certainty as you have been capable, simply because you could not | exist without an identity. You might think of this as being certain |
T3:21.15 | interconnection of these ideas you hold about yourself or not, they | exist. Your world-view, and your view of your personal self, are |
T3:21.17 | Even while your belief system has changed and you believe that you | exist in unity, all the things we have enumerated above will act to |
T3:21.18 | of this Treatise is complete, the personal self will continue to | exist only as the self you present to others. It will be a |
T3:21.19 | our new purpose, the purpose of the miracle that will allow you to | exist as who you are in human form. How, you might rightly ask, can |
T3:22.13 | what is into existence. You believe that what does not appear to | exist with you in the here and now is not, and place it in a separate |
T4:1.28 | This is the truth of the state of the world in which you | exist today. |
T4:2.7 | not become aware of their true nature does not mean that it did not | exist; that there are others living among you in this time who will |
T4:2.7 | not become aware of their true nature does not mean that it does not | exist within them. You are no more accomplished than anyone has been |
T4:2.28 | of consciousness we are calling Christ-consciousness, allowed me to | exist in union and relationship with all, I could see my brothers and |
T4:2.30 | relation to the whole. You are beginning to see the connections that | exist and this is the beginning. |
T4:2.32 | first and foremost of revelation. It is believing that you | exist in relationship and union with all, and that each encounter is |
T4:2.32 | and purpose—purpose that will be revealed to you because you | exist in union with the Source and Cause of revelation. |
T4:3.6 | of being. Both states of being—the natural and the unnatural— | exist in relationship. While relationship is what has kept you |
T4:3.12 | be. There is a reason why the original nature of your being cannot | exist in a form unnatural to love. A form whose nature is fear cannot |
T4:4.16 | of the personal self with the true Self in the reality in which you | exist now. Remember, the heart must abide in the reality where you |
T4:4.16 | mind’s acceptance of your new reality has the heart been freed to | exist in the new reality that is the state of unity and relationship. |
T4:5.2 | are God’s harmony, God’s expression, God’s melody. You, and all that | exist with you, form the orchestra and chorus of creation. You might |
T4:5.4 | for your body to live, this one Energy had to enter your form and | exist where you think you are. This is the Energy of Love, the Energy |
T4:5.5 | you and It surrounds and It encompasses you. It is you and all who | exist with you. It is the body of Christ. It is like unto what the |
T4:6.7 | one truth of God’s law of love, can find many expressions. You can | exist in Christ-consciousness, as have many others of the past, and |
T4:6.8 | You have the unequalled opportunity now, because you | exist in the Time of Christ, to directly share Christ-consciousness |
T4:7.5 | to you through a heart and mind joined in unity, your body too will | exist or abide within this natural state. It cannot help to, as it, |
T4:7.6 | body have joined in alignment to bring this learning about. They now | exist in harmony. Your mind and heart in union have brought harmony |
T4:11.3 | need only for the sustainability of Christ-consciousness in which we | exist together as creators in unity and relationship. |
T4:12.12 | of learning for you to move on to. There is no reason for you not to | exist in continual contentment. Continual contentment will not stunt |
T4:12.24 | You now | exist within a shared consciousness. The pattern of a shared |
T4:12.33 | before us. Because you are a being still existing in form, you still | exist in the realm of time and space. Yet time and space no longer |
D:1.15 | These Dialogues are for everyone because we | exist in unity with everyone. No one will be forced to join our |
D:1.27 | what can only be received in the love and unity in which we truly | exist together, as one body, one Christ, one Self. |
D:2.22 | Within is where the real world and all your brothers and sisters | exist in the unity of Christ-consciousness. Change within effects |
D:4.12 | that make up your world, everything from the planet on which you | exist to the stars in the sky, from the body you seem to inhabit to |
D:4.13 | patterns, the internal and the external, were created together to | exist in a complementary fashion. Both of these divine patterns are |
D:5.11 | of the truth, returns you to the reality of the truth where you | exist in oneness. |
D:5.12 | and the loving patterns given in the time of learning are all that | exist in all you see. But what now will become of these patterns that |
D:5.20 | of your environment, your mind, and time as a prison, how can it | exist in perfect harmony with the universe? As you can see, you are |
D:6.6 | nothing. There is not one thing that you have made that does not | exist as some variation of what was originally created. Because, and |
D:6.11 | your ideas about the body and the systems of the world in which you | exist. If you are no longer living in an “if this, then that” world, |
D:6.12 | of relationships, relationships without end, relationships that | exist in harmony and cooperation. This is a harmony and cooperation |
D:6.26 | Now that your Self has joined the elevated Self of form, you | exist together both in time and outside of time. Remember, the |
D:7.7 | a particular time in history. Now you are called to discover how to | exist in form without being defined by this time-bound particularity. |
D:7.8 | it as “bound” by the particularity of time and space. It may still | exist in a particular time and place, but this is simply the nature |
D:7.18 | of creation, because they are related to particular forms as they | exist in time. Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity. Time is |
D:7.27 | and space. It is not a circle that can be drawn around where you | exist so as to define, perhaps, a mile of space and say that this is |
D:9.12 | learning, ideas are also discoveries that you make, discoveries that | exist apart from learning. Ideas “come to you.” They are given and |
D:9.14 | 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 expression in |
D:12.1 | through which thought can enter your mind. You believe thoughts | exist in your mind and are themselves the product of your brain, |
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 |
D:16.2 | to join with the accomplishment and wholeness that already | exist in unity. Creation occurs in each of us, seemingly one at a |
D:16.9 | movement, being, and expression. You can choose, in other words, to | exist without allowing spirit to move you, without allowing yourself |
D:16.9 | self-expression. You might think that you can be simply because you | exist and that as long as you exist in form you are being because you |
D:16.9 | that you can be simply because you exist and that as long as you | exist in form you are being because you are being something. You are |
D:16.15 | and the time of being the elevated Self of form; that times still | exist in which you are not wholly present as who you are. |
D:Day1.14 | I not called you to a new time in which the conditions of learning | exist no more? In which the suffering and death that have obscured |
D:Day3.41 | is the idea of a responsive relationship with unity that does not | exist only within the mind of the wholehearted. |
D:Day4.46 | the individual is gone, and the self of union all that continues to | exist. It will mean peace, certainty, safety, and joy with no price. |

D:Day11.2 | through a seeming separation from the oneness in which we | exist. This is the great paradox that unites the world of form and |

D:Day22.7 | would bring this state into existence in the reality in which you | exist. |

D:Day33.13 | And yet, since no one can | exist outside of relationship and relationship is where power is |
D:Day34.1 | Seeing in wholeness includes seeing the opposites that seem to | exist at these two ends of the same spectrum. If the new way of |

D:6.26 | change occurs in time. Outside of time and form your Self has always | existed in the perfect harmony in which it was created. Now that your |
D:8.3 | idea of each of you containing a natural ability or talent that | existed in some form prior to the time of learning. We concentrate on |

D:Day9.23 | “same” or “as” accomplished as every enlightened one who has ever | existed. Without realizing this, however, your unique expression of |

D:4.11 | In this case, the old you would deny is the idea of a purposeless | existence, a universe with no divine order, a life in which you are |
D:4.11 | at the mercy of fate. The new idea you are asked to accept is that | existence is purposeful, that the universe exists in divine order, |
D:4.12 | Divine patterns are the patterns that made your | existence in form possible as well as the patterns that have made |
D:4.18 | All we are left with is what was given: A divine universe, a divine | existence. That divine universe, our divine existence, is now |
D:4.18 | universe, a divine existence. That divine universe, our divine | existence, is now recreating the patterns that served the time of |
D:4.20 | and denial of the old. Turn your back on the prison of your former | existence and do not look at it again. Do not long for its old |
D:6.13 | Now if this were to happen, scientists would quickly determine the | existence of a natural law that allowed this event to happen. It |
D:6.26 | true Self, the embodiment of love, the embodiment of divinity. Its | existence is given as it was always given. But now the very nature of |
D:6.26 | is given as it was always given. But now the very nature of its | existence has changed. I say changed here because you may remember |
D:6.27 | two states, the state of form and the state of unity, are both in | existence right now. In the state of unity, your true Self is fully |
D:7.18 | By becoming one body, one Christ, you have accepted | existence as a non-particular being in a state outside of time—you |
D:7.18 | non-particular being in a state outside of time—you have accepted | existence as a new Self, the Self of elevated form. You just do not |
D:15.10 | not be compared to the forms of the not yet elevated? What if the | existence of form was seen to predate the animation of that form with |
D:15.11 | Time is what begins and ends. Time is what began when life took on | existence in form and space. It is temporal rather than eternal. |
D:15.20 | to sustenance is our goal, however. To sustain is to keep in | existence. To recognize unity as sustenance is to recognize it as |
D:16.9 | feel. You have even been told that you would cease to be without the | existence of spirit, and so, you think, you must at least be. You |
D:Day4.27 | you seek. Without knowing this, without knowing the truth of your | existence, how could you be done with learning? This was what |
D:Day6.2 | if you have truly taken leave of the everyday world of your “normal” | existence and feel fully present on the holy mountain. This is not a |
D:Day11.6 | be to not exist. To be the All of Everything would be to not know | existence. Only what exists in relationship knows that it exists. |
D:Day11.7 | Christ-consciousness is the awareness of | existence through relationship. It is not God. It is not man. It is |
D:Day17.1 | story. We have spoken of Christ-consciousness as the awareness of | existence through relationship. We have spoken of life-consciousness |
D:Day19.9 | nor isolated, nor confined to a specific community. It is a way of | existence in which relationship is paramount. It is not listening to |
D:Day22.7 | an aware and conscious state, that you would bring this state into | existence in the reality in which you exist. |
D:Day24.2 | exists in every cell, in each of every smallest particle of | existence. Wholeness exists in you. Nothing can take wholeness from |
D:Day29.4 | which can be interpreted both as bringing all that you are into | existence and as bringing all that you are into existence in union. |
D:Day29.4 | that you are into existence and as bringing all that you are into | existence in union. |
D:Day30.3 | were named. This naming was an act of creation, stating simply the | existence of what was named or denominated. Existence and wholeness |

D:Day35.5 | that you are a self, as long as you have been aware of your own | existence, you have been aware of God. Your awareness of Self is God. |
D:Day36.2 | This was the way in which you created your experience of a separate | existence. |
D:Day36.12 | What we have called illusion is this simple nothingness of | existence without relationship to God, and thus existence without |
D:Day36.12 | nothingness of existence without relationship to God, and thus | existence without relationship to the power of creation. The illusion |

C:14.19 | “next best thing” and keep it close to you, a twin universe still | existing separately, but close enough that you can gaze upon it and |
C:20.33 | The rest of the universe, | existing in a state of compassionate free will devoid of fear, knows |
C:20.35 | have any relation to the whole. Knowing what you do comes from | existing within the embrace. You know you do the will of God because |
C:21.2 | see. I remind you of what was said earlier concerning relationships | existing apart from particulars. I repeat that relationship exists |
C:23.8 | This comes of seeing oneself as an image rather than as a being | existing in relationship. This comes from ego rather than from the |
T1:7.1 | is as the perceived inability to be who you truly are, a being | existing in union. Take away all, for the moment, that you would |
T2:9.13 | this drive that has become instinctual to you. As a being | existing in form, you have honed certain instincts over millennia, |
T3:11.1 | It has been seen as a statement of awareness of the self. Those | existing within the house of illusion are aware of the self but are |
T3:11.2 | Those | existing within the House of Truth also feel an awareness of Self. |
T3:11.2 | am” as a statement of the personal self or the self alone. For those | existing in the House of Truth, “I am” has become something larger, |
T3:17.4 | learning to occur. A new experience was chosen—the experience of | existing within the realm of physicality. As such, it was as much a |
T4:1.14 | be something different about this time, the capabilities of those | existing within it. It must be your science or technology, your |
T4:3.6 | being that is joyful, effortless, and full of love. For every being | existing in time there is also an unnatural state of being. Both |
T4:5.3 | Awareness of this one Source of energy, and thus this one energy | existing in everything, and creating the life in everything, is |
T4:5.5 | as a small spark of the energy that has created a living universe | existing within you and uniting you to all that has been created. You |
T4:6.7 | leaves open room for creation. In each moment, what is, while still | existing in the one truth of God’s law of love, can find many |
T4:12.33 | This time is before us. Because you are a being still | existing in form, you still exist in the realm of time and space. Yet |
D:3.8 | a new way. These are ideas that address your true nature as a being | existing in union, and this is why we call them ideas to carry |
D:7.1 | Just as when you were a being | existing in the shared consciousness of unity you couldn’t know what |
D:7.7 | You have been told that you are time-bound only as a particular self, | existing as man or woman in a particular time in history. Now you are |
D:7.27 | be seen as your home, although you are rarely consciously aware of | existing in this “larger” home, you will not always be aware of this |
D:8.7 | like the home in which you reside, the idea that you have an already | existing awareness of the Source of unity beyond the body will |
D:15.10 | work of creation? Would this not even be consistent with spirit | existing in every living form from the beginning of time until the |
D:16.9 | apart from Love, apart from Creation, you cannot. But you can, while | existing in time and form, choose to stand apart from movement, |
D:Day4.23 | your identity. You needed to first know yourself as a being | existing in union before you could know anything else with the |
D:Day4.47 | The old challenges, the old reasons for | existing will be gone. All that will be left to do will be the |
D:Day10.11 | It works for you in that you do not have to resist and reject an | existing trust as you do with the thoughts of the mind you call |
D:Day10.21 | and Christ-consciousness can be joined. That you, as man or woman, | existing in this particular time and space, can join with |
D:Day19.16 | Thus it is realistic to see the two ways as intertwined circles | existing in support and harmony with one another. As those given |
D:Day21.2 | to learn, the source of wisdom, even though you may have seen it as | existing outside of yourself, had to function as what it was—a |
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 allowed |
D:Day32.8 | Another idea of God within the concept of a Creator God is of God | existing in all of what has been created. God is, within this |
D:Day36.11 | Without relationship, what is not God is simply being—simply | existing at the opposite end of the continuum of everything that is |
exists (231) |

C:1.12 | perception is healed, to create like your Creator. This yearning | exists naturally within you and cannot be diminished or satiated. |
C:1.17 | reflect a deeper meaning that, while hidden to you, you still know | exists. The union of two bodies joined in love create a child, the |
C:2.1 | 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 be |
C:2.2 | will not recognize God. Everything real is of God. Nothing unreal | exists. Each person passing from this life to the next learns no |
C:2.2 | secret. They simply realize love is all there is. Nothing unreal | exists. Think for yourself: If you were going to die tomorrow what |
C:5.5 | Relationship | exists apart from particulars. This is what you can’t conceive of and |
C:5.5 | the specific details or forms of your world. You think relationship | exists between one body and another, and while you think this is so, |
C:5.6 | Relationship is what | exists between one thing and another. It is not one thing or another |
C:5.6 | separate, a third something. You realize that a relationship | exists between your hand and a pencil when you go to write something |
C:5.6 | you take so completely for granted that you have forgotten that it | exists. All truth lies in relationship, even one so simple as this. |
C:5.6 | is a statement that describes the truly real, the only reality that | exists. It is the joining that is real and that causes all creation |
C:5.6 | that causes all creation to sing a song of gladness. No one thing | exists without another. Cause and effect are one. Thus, one thing |
C:5.7 | and say, “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 |
C:5.12 | It is in understanding the relationship that | exists between what you feel and what you do that love’s lessons are |
C:5.12 | find love. It is in every joining, every entering into, that love | exists. Every joining, every entering into, is preceded by a |
C:5.22 | wanting to believe all effort is in vain or that a simple solution | exists. A simple solution within your world, a solution that requires |
C:6.1 | so. You have to forgive yourself for being what you are, a being who | exists only in relationship. You have to forgive all others for being |
C:6.2 | that is the center of your being is the center of everything that | exists. This is reality. None of these things make you less than what |
C:6.8 | Spirit. Contrast demonstrates only to reveal the relationship that | exists between truth and illusion. When you chose to deny |
C:7.17 | or one that is specific and not generalizable. All relationship | exists in wholeness. The small examples used earlier were meant to |
C:7.20 | from this center that you will come to understand that relationship | exists in wholeness. We have begun to dislodge your idea that you |
C:7.22 | toss it to the wind and ask for an alternative. An alternative | exists. Not in dreams of fantasy but in truth. Not in changing form |
C:8.10 | recognition that something other than what appears on the surface | exists. |
C:9.13 | definition of your entire problem: You do not allow anything that | exists in your world, including yourself, to be what it is. |
C:9.21 | hungry and you prepare a feast for him fit to serve a king. This one | exists in the violence you would keep outside your doors, and from |
C:10.2 | never really ceased to be, but as long as you do not realize that it | exists its benefits are unavailable to you. As much as I would like |
C:10.6 | be ready, just as having lost something does not mean it no longer | exists. Yet your separated self would cite all evidence of its |
C:12.12 | day and in a lovely place you can see that creation’s paradise still | exists, but nowhere can you find the being God created in His image. |
C:13.8 | that are your own, memories that are of your own Self. For no spirit | exists that is not part of you, or you of it. If you find yourself |
C:14.7 | reason try to fit the unfitable without seeing that an alternative | exists. |
C:14.18 | and if it depends on you that it is you? Only what you are aware of | exists in the universe that is you. Only what happens to you affects |
C:14.21 | to fear, and those who would not, would still believe that love | exists despite fear’s claim upon it, and think that they are lucky to |
C:17.3 | And yet you know you cannot claim that you are aware of all that | exists within the universe, or even that you fully know your own |
C:18.14 | Once an idea is born, it | exists in relationship to its creator. All that remains now is a |
C:19.4 | self lies the world that was created for your learning, and that so | exists in truth. It is not the only world by any means, but it is |
C:19.17 | 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 in part, |
C:19.24 | The Holy Spirit | exists in your right mind, and is the bridge to exchanging perception |
C:20.12 | all beginnings, the kernel and the wholeness of all life. The whole | exists untroubled by what it will be. It is. |
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 |
C:20.22 | Sanctity is all that | exists within the embrace. How could you be less than sacred? You |
C:20.30 | or uniformity. You are a unique expression of the selfsame love that | exists in all creation. Thus your expression of love is as unique as |
C:20.48 | thought. It is not wisdom but the truth. The truth is that which | exists. The false is illusion. Love is all that matters because love |
C:21.2 | existing apart from particulars. I repeat that relationship | exists between one thing and another and that it is in the |
C:21.8 | easy to see in extreme circumstances, but it is a situation that | exists constantly and in every instance until unity is achieved. |
C:22.13 | illness, or accidents, while in the “beyond meaning” category | exists the relationship that broke your heart, grief, poverty, war, |
C:22.23 | will allow you to see your “self” as an integral part of all that | exists within your world rather than as the small and insignificant |
C:27.8 | know God through relationship. Christ is the holy relationship that | exists between all and God, providing the bridge that spans the very |
C:27.10 | relationship rather than singular objects and bodies, as all that | exists, and thus who you are and who God is? Is it such a huge leap |
C:29.16 | this manner of functioning, but it did not create it. Life | exists in service to itself. This could also be stated thus: Life |
C:29.16 | exists in service to itself. This could also be stated thus: Life | exists in relationship. Relationship is the interaction within which |
C:29.17 | The universe | exists in reciprocal relationship or holy relationship, rather than |
C:29.20 | wholehearted, for it is in wholeheartedness that the power of choice | exists. A split mind and heart can prevent you from utilizing the |
C:29.24 | with God achieve the state of unity. Only the state of unity | exists. |
C:29.27 | No chance to learn or grow is ever missed. Each still | exists, though not in time. Each still exists, but in the present. |
C:29.27 | is ever missed. Each still exists, though not in time. Each still | exists, but in the present. Can you replace your attention to the |
C:31.23 | is revealed in truth. This truth lies within everything that | exists, as it lies within you. As you learn that who you are is love, |
C:32.2 | all the rest that the difference you so prize as your uniqueness | exists. And only there. Only in relationship are you uniquely you. |
C:32.2 | there. Only in relationship are you uniquely you. Only relationship | exists. For Love is relationship. |
T1:2.8 | as was stated often throughout A Course of Love, an alternative | exists. It did not exist when you knew not of it and so your attempts |
T1:3.3 | order. Because of all of this, it cannot experience the truth and so | exists in illusion. |
T1:4.9 | of God. Your thoughts are released from their concentration on what | exists outside of you as your responsibility is placed where it |
T1:4.19 | feelings has given them their meaning—think again. Their meaning | exists already and is not up to you to determine. This is not your |
T1:7.2 | peace in relation to chaos, love in relation to fear. This belief | exists in the in-between, where on the one hand there is darkness, |
T1:8.5 | it returned me to you in the form of the resurrected Christ who | exists in all of you, bringing resurrection even unto your forms. I |
T1:9.6 | something does not come from nothing and that nothing is all that | exists without relationship. |
T1:10.8 | many references that have been made to God not seeing suffering. God | exists with you in peace. When you feel peace, you feel the Peace of |
T2:1.3 | the first sense is, first and foremost, something that you believe | exists and have defined as being of value. As this Treatise is not |
T2:1.13 | put a brush to a canvas. But it does mean that the treasure | exists without these “things” and that the treasure is already a |
T2:3.1 | life is already an act of creation. It was created. All of it. It | exists, fully realized within you. Your work here is to express it. |
T2:3.2 | desire for expression. Life is the desire to express outwardly what | exists within. What I refer to so often here as being within, as if |
T2:3.2 | of one heart and one mind. It is the place where everything already | exists fully realized. It is like a trunk full of treasure. Like a |
T2:3.3 | Your mind | exists in unity. Your heart exists where you think you are, thus |
T2:3.3 | Your mind exists in unity. Your heart | exists where you think you are, thus providing the means for union |
T2:3.7 | easier to explain. If the ability to create beautiful music already | exists within you, you do not have to learn what beautiful music is, |
T2:5.7 | that dependency is a matter of the interdependency of all that | exists in relationship. Thus, all the calls that come to you in the |
T2:6.6 | you will be someone other than who you are in the present. Unity | exists only in the here and now of the present. There is no will be |
T2:6.8 | of what is already accomplished that needs adjustment now. As a tree | exists fully accomplished within its seed and yet grows and changes, |
T2:6.9 | reality outside of the pattern of ordinary time. Although this state | exists as the already accomplished, it is up to you to create it for |
T2:7.14 | includes accepting that you have needs. That you are a being who | exists in relationship is the same as saying you are a being who |
T2:9.14 | to arrive. As has already been said, you have arrived and rest | exists only in the state of unity. |
T2:10.10 | back to your united mind and heart. This is the knowing that already | exists, the memory that is swatted away by the ego. |
T2:10.13 | by ending the separated state which is the state in which the ego | exists. The end of the separated state or the ego, is the beginning |
T2:11.1 | were told within the pages of A Course of Love, you are a being who | exists in relationship. This is how you were created and how you |
T2:11.1 | is to show you how to integrate the belief that you are a being who | exists in relationship into the living of your life. |
T2:11.5 | protection. The truth is not threatened by untruth. The truth simply | exists as love exists and as you exist. When we say something is, |
T2:11.5 | truth is not threatened by untruth. The truth simply exists as love | exists and as you exist. When we say something is, this is what it is |
T2:11.7 | in unity that is inherent in the acceptance that you are a being who | exists in relationship. Separation is all that opposes relationship, |
T2:11.12 | existence of relationship and it is in relationship that union still | exists. If you had been able to choose separation without |
T2:11.13 | separation in a new way. Let us speak of separation as a state that | exists rather than as a state that does not exist. If you exist as a |
T2:11.13 | is this not the same thing as saying that you are a being who | exists in relationship? Is this not similar to saying that a living |
T2:11.16 | An alternative to this insanity | exists. The alternative is removing all faith from your belief in the |
T2:12.8 | being, are not called upon to also call forth the treasure that | exists around you? When you call to those whom you meet in |
T2:12.10 | cultivates her garden. The gardener knows that although the plant | exists fully realized within its seed, it also needs the relationship |
T2:12.12 | This cultivation then, of the all-encompassing holy relationship that | exists within you and without you, both in all you are and all you |
T3:1.1 | The personal self | exists as the self you present to others. This is the only way in |
T3:1.8 | I began this Treatise by saying that the personal self | exists as the self you present to others and that this is the only |
T3:2.5 | beliefs have shaped your dualistic view of the world and all that | exists with you within it. For every “glory,” gift, or success you |
T3:6.3 | reward given in another, is the cause of much of the bitterness that | exists within your hearts. |
T3:6.5 | abode of Christ, this bridge between the human and the divine. It | exists not in some but in all, as the ego has existed not in some but |
T3:10.1 | to encounter the truth, you must realize that while meaninglessness | exists within your mind, you will be working still to replace it with |
T3:10.1 | to replace it with meaning rather than allowing the meaning that | exists in everything to be remembered or known. Thus are more |
T3:10.15 | because they will realize that the memory of this language | exists within them as well. It will come naturally to you to welcome |
T3:10.16 | among those in human form. While the house of illusion still | exists, you will continue to encounter those who exist within it. |
T3:11.1 | of the self but are unaware that the self of illusion, the self that | exists in illusion, is an illusionary self. This could be further |
T3:11.9 | learning is no longer that the Kingdom of God or the House of Truth | exists, but how to live within it. The question of how to live within |
T3:11.12 | and sisters. All exist in the House of Truth. The house of illusion | exists within the House of Truth because it is where your brothers |
T3:11.12 | chosen heaven. Choice and the awareness of the power of choice that | exists within is all that differentiates one from the other. |
T3:12.9 | and strife only because the physical or personal self forgot that it | exists in relationship and believed itself to be separate and alone. |
T3:15.11 | The Good News is that you have no need to learn the truth. The truth | exists within you and you are now aware of its reality. |
T3:18.10 | and happiness. You can observe this within yourself because it | exists within your Self. What exists within you is shared by all. |
T3:18.10 | this within yourself because it exists within your Self. What | exists within you is shared by all. This is the relationship of the |
T3:21.5 | Your real Self | exists in truth. It does not exist in illusion. |
T3:21.6 | Your personal self | exists in illusion. It is called a personal self because it is |
T3:21.17 | of your personal self. As your true identity is that of a Self who | exists in unity and the identity of your personal self is that of a |
T3:21.17 | unity and the identity of your personal self is that of a self who | exists in separation, this would seem impossible. Even while your |
T3:21.23 | said that anyone should, or will, remain blind to the unity that | exists beyond all barriers of seeming differences such as those of |
T3:22.12 | now to what I spoke of earlier as creative tension, the tension that | exists between accepting what is and desiring what will be. Linking |
T3:22.12 | dualistic world in which you have lived, a world wherein a lag time | exists between what is and what will be. You may have, upon reading |
T3:22.13 | is not, and place it in a separate category, a category that only | exists in the dualistic world of illusion where here and now is |
T4:1.16 | are asked not to look back with blame, for no such cause for blame | exists. No cause to look back exists at all, for the truth exists in |
T4:1.16 | blame, for no such cause for blame exists. No cause to look back | exists at all, for the truth exists in the present. This is the same |
T4:1.16 | for blame exists. No cause to look back exists at all, for the truth | exists in the present. This is the same as saying the truth exists |
T4:1.16 | truth exists in the present. This is the same as saying the truth | exists within you. It is in this way that time is not real and will |
T4:2.21 | it brings. The power to observe what is relates to everything that | exists with you, including the days that make up your life in time |
T4:2.23 | A Course of Love as your inability to realize the relationship that | exists with the unseen and even the seen. You have moved through life |
T4:2.25 | point of what I have revealed to you. A new relationship now | exists between the physical and spiritual. It is not an indirect |
T4:2.25 | It is not an indirect relationship but a direct relationship. It | exists and you are becoming aware of its existence. You will |
T4:3.10 | Vision will allow you to see the nature of the world and all that | exists within it truly. Observation will allow you to elevate the |
T4:3.13 | and at the same time to hang on to life; not realizing that what | exists in form does not have to be separate and alone; not realizing |
T4:5.3 | expressions in form. The same life-force courses through all that | exists in matter in the form of this energy. Awareness of this one |
T4:5.4 | that is known as God. Since you are clearly alive, this Energy | exists within you as it exists in all else that lives. It is one |
T4:5.4 | Since you are clearly alive, this Energy exists within you as it | exists in all else that lives. It is one Energy endlessly able to |
T4:5.5 | been created. You are the substance of the universe. The same energy | exists in the stars of the heavens and the waters of the ocean that |
T4:5.5 | exists in the stars of the heavens and the waters of the ocean that | exists in you. This energy is the form and content of the embrace. It |
T4:5.5 | like unto what the water of the ocean is to the living matter that | exists within it. The living matter that exists within the ocean has |
T4:5.5 | to the living matter that exists within it. The living matter that | exists within the ocean has no need to search for God. It lives in |
T4:7.5 | this natural state. It cannot help to, as it, just like your heart, | exists in the state or reality in which you think you are. The only |
T4:12.8 | of the non-intermediary nature of this dialogue is that it | exists in unity. It is given and received in unity. Intermediary |
D:1.23 | This is akin to thinking of a god who | exists outside or apart from yourself. If you fully accepted your |
D:3.12 | source, thus giving and receiving is an idea, as are all ideas, that | exists apart from form. Giving and receiving are thus one within the |
D:3.17 | “other” than your Self rather than seeking the awareness that | exists within. |
D:3.19 | It is this difference that | exists between the Self and the elevated Self of form that makes of |
D:3.19 | within this Course as unique expressions of the selfsame love that | exists in all. |
D:3.21 | aware of the truth of giving and receiving being one. This awareness | exists within you and you cannot any longer claim to be unaware of it |
D:4.11 | believe in a divine design without accepting that a divine design | exists and that you are part of it. Remember that our goal here is to |
D:4.11 | asked to accept is that existence is purposeful, that the universe | exists in divine order, and that your life is part of that divine |
D:4.12 | from the body you seem to inhabit to the animal and plant life that | exists around you. From the daintiest and most intricately laced |
D:4.14 | upon which how you live arises. The truth is a system of thought. It | exists in wholeness and has always been available. |
D:5.21 | that seems inconsistent with your being, while still in a form that | exists within a form, within a world that seems inconsistent with |
D:6.6 | body, as all else you see among the living, is, in fact, living. It | exists as living form. And so we begin with a distinction between |
D:6.6 | as living form. And so we begin with a distinction between what | exists as living form, and what exists as inanimate or non-living |
D:6.6 | with a distinction between what exists as living form, and what | exists as inanimate or non-living form. While you might think this is |
D:6.6 | is not perhaps as you have previously seen it, for everything that | exists in form is of the same Source. Even those things you have made |
D:6.6 | of the truly real, or the energy of creation, in everything that | exists in form. |
D:6.27 | The elevated Self of form, however, being a form that still | exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the true Self in |
D:7.5 | of unity and places you outside of time. In this state, no duality | exists. Doing and being are one. |
D:7.8 | nature of one aspect of what you are. The nature of form is that it | exists as matter, it occupies space and is perceptible to the senses. |
D:7.18 | eternity or of unity. Time is thus what has separated the self that | exists in form from the Self that exists in union or the state of |
D:7.18 | what has separated the self that exists in form from the Self that | exists in union or the state of Christ-consciousness. By becoming one |
D:7.26 | now as you begin to imagine the “more” that you are, the “more” that | exists beyond the body’s boundary and beyond the boundary of time and |
D:7.27 | a mile of space and say that this is all you. No, the circle that | exists around you is the circle of shared consciousness, the circle |
D:7.29 | who live and work nearby. This territory of conscious awareness | exists within the larger consciousness of unity, just as the |
D:7.29 | larger consciousness of unity, just as the territory of your body | exists within the larger territory of the planet Earth. We will begin |
D:8.5 | this as an idea is to imagine this “given” Self as the Self that | exists beyond the boundary we have described as the dot of the body. |
D:9.12 | 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 exists |
D:9.12 | 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 | now come to see your form; it is that through which what already | exists, what is already accomplished, comes or passes through by |
D:10.4 | of unity, your expression of these givens, since that expression | exists in the realm of time and space and involves the work and time |
D:10.4 | realize that the bringing forth of the accomplishment that already | exists in unity is your new work, the work of the Self of union, the |
D:12.13 | and unusual as it may sound, that this access and entryway already | exists within you, and that you have already benefited from moments |
D:13.6 | you can come to understand it. What comes of union is a knowing that | exists in relationship. Once you have attained a state of being able |
D:16.15 | To realize the state of becoming is to realize that an in-between | exists between the time of learning and the time of being the |
D:Day3.39 | felt the reality of union, you have felt the place in which no want | exists. You felt this through the responsiveness of the relationship |
D:Day4.13 | You have been told that in unity a “place” | exists that is your natural state, a state free from want, a state |
D:Day4.13 | from learning, a state free from death. To be told that such a place | exists is no more comforting than consoling words if you do not feel |
D:Day4.26 | 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 | To know the basic truth of who you are—that you are a being who | exists in unity rather than in separation—is thus the first step to |
D:Day4.27 | And learning is not the way to the access that you seek. As all that | exists in truth, the truth of who you are is means and end as well. |
D:Day4.30 | of its training. Thus, a major key to your discovery of all that | exists within you in the state of unity, is an end to thinking as you |
D:Day4.32 | Access simply | exists within your natural state, much like breathing is simply a |
D:Day4.35 | this portal to all that lies beyond time and space, to all that | exists in the place of unity. |
D:Day4.40 | back at form and matter? Or do you turn and look up where no form | exists? Do you believe you can choose the formless and still return |

D:Day10.2 | confidence of the self of form? Certainty is knowing that this power | exists. Confidence is the expression of your reliance upon it. To |

D:Day13.7 | the suffering self. A suffering self, held within the spacious Self, | exists in harmony with the spacious Self. Attempts to eject the self |
D:Day13.8 | relationship is not only possible but inevitable. True relationship | exists naturally in the state of harmony that is the spacious Self. |

D:Day16.10 | moment you remain within Christ-consciousness where all that is | exists in harmony. To embrace is the opposite of to escape. To hold |
D:Day16.13 | about. What you hold within the embrace is held in love and so | exists along with you in the spacious state of constant coming to |
D:Day21.1 | of any of the ideas that you may still have that an outside source | exists. There is no such thing as an outside source. There are no |
D:Day21.6 | that you receive in union as a channel of the divine life force that | exists in everything and everyone. There is nothing channeled to one |
D:Day22.7 | You realize that you have known a place where nothing but love | exists, where there is no suffering, no death, no pain nor sorrow, no |

D:Day22.8 | It is time to be a channel for the awareness of union with God that | exists in every living being. |
D:Day22.11 | Remember only the feeling that a place of union | exists in which you know God, in which you know love, in which you |

D:Day35.16 | Humankind’s unawareness of the union and relationship in which it | exists has produced the idea of separation, while at the same time, |
D:Day37.3 | Thus the world does not exist without relationship—as nothing | exists without relationship. But relationship, like being and |
D:Day37.23 | God the Father is an idea that was created and thus | exists much as other ideas of God were created and thus exist. But |
D:Day37.26 | The only real difference that | exists or has ever existed between God and man is that man sees |
D:Day37.26 | relationship is to be God in form—to give expression to “all” that | exists in union and relationship through your being. |

C:19.10 | the language of the heart. This is why you have been asked to | experience the spirit of your brothers and sisters rather than simply |
C:19.15 | about other things. And, increasingly, you are willing to exchange | experience for second-hand knowledge and to believe you can come to |
C:19.15 | now—coming to know your own Self—it is obvious that another’s | experience will not bring this knowledge to you, not even my |
C:19.15 | experience will not bring this knowledge to you, not even my | experience. If this were so, all of those who read of my life and |
C:19.15 | read of my life and words would have learned what I learned from my | experience. While many have learned much of others, this type of |
C:19.15 | others, this type of learning is but a starting point, a gateway to | experience. |
C:19.19 | It is a bit like traveling backward, or the review of life that some | experience after death. In order to remember unity you must, in a |
C:22.7 | others, where you encounter situations in your daily life, where you | experience those things that cause you to feel or believe in a |
C:23.10 | Understanding of this loving relationship can help you to | experience freedom of the body, which is an extension, in form, of |
C:23.24 | for a period of engagement with life. Many of you will have begun to | experience unlearning opportunities even while your study of this |
C:23.24 | to true conviction. True conviction cannot be attained without this | experience of unlearning and purging. |
C:24.1 | you learned to distrust, you will learn trust. And each learning | experience will be a learning experience because it will touch your |
C:24.1 | will learn trust. And each learning experience will be a learning | experience because it will touch your heart. It may be as simple as a |
C:25.24 | soon realize why this time of engagement with life is necessary. | Experience is necessary to complete the cycle of unlearning and |
C:26.17 | If you could truly succeed at doing this for one instant, you would | experience all that is holy and be forever new. |
C:26.18 | You may | experience disappointment at these words, and feel as if you have |
C:30.3 | to claim your learning for your Self. Learn who you are through each | experience rather than learning in order to find out who you are or |
C:31.26 | —or in other words, awaits the transfer of your feelings and | experience to truth, and thus to your mind. Only the truth abides |
C:31.34 | giving and receiving as one is called relationship. It allows you to | experience who you are and thus to know, or remember, who you are. It |
C:31.35 | just as your mind does not exist outside of oneness. Your | experience here is but an extension of mind into a realm in which |
C:31.35 | experience here is but an extension of mind into a realm in which | experience can occur. Your ego has made of this something different |
C:31.35 | something different than it is. Rather than extension of mind, your | experience has become a projection of ego. This can change. |
C:32.2 | that regardless of this truth you will not, in coming to know and | experience this, lose your Self. The way in which you experience |
C:32.2 | to know and experience this, lose your Self. The way in which you | experience relationship with each aspect of the Trinity is different |
C:32.2 | is true of all relationship with everything. The way in which you | experience relationship with each aspect of creation is different |
T1:1.4 | that once was but transform that reality into a present moment | experience. It is in the present-moment experience memory provides |
T1:1.4 | into a present moment experience. It is in the present-moment | experience memory provides that truth rather than illusion can now be |
T1:1.4 | can now be experienced and learned from. It is in the present-moment | experience that you will receive the blessing of being able to |
T1:1.5 | you for this. As each situation that re-enacts a previous learning | experience arises, you will, if you trust your heart, be perfectly |
T1:1.10 | the thoughts of a mind joined in union will be unparalleled in your | experience here. “Ah,” you will say with a relief and joy that knows |
T1:1.10 | with a relief and joy that knows no bounds, “this is what it is to | experience and know the truth. This is what it is to create, for this |
T1:1.10 | joined in union will now, more and more, recognize only truth and | experience only the truly real. |
T1:1.12 | is called upon. Be willing now to apply the art of thought to the | experience of truth. |
T1:2.3 | To | experience the truth and apply to that experience the thoughts of the |
T1:2.3 | To experience the truth and apply to that | experience the thoughts of the ego-mind, the same thoughts that were |
T1:2.13 | rays, perhaps to feel the warmth or chill of an evening. The whole | experience might include the sound of birds or traffic, the rhythm of |
T1:2.13 | the ocean, or the pounding of your own heart. It might be a shared | experience, one in which you share the feeling of awe inspired by |
T1:2.16 | The sunset is part of your human | experience. In the lower order of that experience it speaks to your |
T1:2.16 | sunset is part of your human experience. In the lower order of that | experience it speaks to your survival needs. It may signal many |
T1:2.17 | Yet to rise above this lower order of | experience is to receive and to give back. First the sunset is |
T1:2.17 | world and the eternal. It binds you to all those who have and will | experience the sunset by being a shared experience. It is there not |
T1:2.17 | all those who have and will experience the sunset by being a shared | experience. It is there not for you alone, but in listening to its |
T1:2.18 | Finally, the sunset becomes, through your | experience of it, an opportunity to apply the art of thought. |
T1:2.19 | Thus, these are the basic rules of the art of thought: First, to | experience what is and to acknowledge what is, both as a fact of your |
T1:2.19 | the Creator. Second, to acknowledge the relationship inherent in the | experience, the call for a response, and the nature of all gifts as |
T1:2.21 | To | experience what is and to acknowledge what is, one must be present, |
T1:2.21 | acknowledge what is, one must be present, present as human being. To | experience what is and to acknowledge what is as being a gift of God |
T1:2.21 | a gift of God is to be present as a divine being having a human | experience. No part of being is negated. All senses and feelings of |
T1:3.1 | the art of thought to be applied relate to memory in terms of your | experience here. In other words they will relate to the |
T1:3.2 | Seeing how different from the | experience of illusion is the experience of truth is the same as |
T1:3.2 | Seeing how different from the experience of illusion is the | experience of truth is the same as seeing how different the art of |
T1:3.3 | it cannot see the higher order. Because of all of this, it cannot | experience the truth and so exists in illusion. |
T1:3.4 | The | experience of truth dispels illusion and thus the ego-mind. The art |
T1:4.19 | Interpretation but gives you opinions about those things that you | experience. Response reveals the truth to you because it reveals the |
T1:4.21 | to re-experience the lessons your life has brought you. You will | experience the same lessons in the same way, rather than in a new |
T1:4.27 | a God of love, this revelation has not been reconciled with your | experience here. This is what we will now seek to do by putting an |
T1:5.2 | the art of thought. One aspect of this fear has to do with the human | experience, the other aspect with the divine experience. |
T1:5.2 | to do with the human experience, the other aspect with the divine | experience. |
T1:5.3 | has gone wrong within it, this fear in relation to the human | experience is of what it was I spoke. The choice for suffering that |
T1:5.8 | In order to | experience the truth, you must move into a state that is real. |
T1:5.9 | system has kept you from this freedom is the seeming difficulty you | experience in learning this course of study and the reason, when you |
T1:5.10 | The body, and thus the “you” whom you think you are, would not | experience anything without the presence of the heart. The heart is |
T1:5.10 | the presence of the heart. The heart is the only cause of your | experience here. When released from the ego thought system, the heart |
T1:5.10 | the ego thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you | experience since you know it as the cause. This is what is meant by |
T1:5.11 | The “here” that you | experience is the experience dictated by the ego-mind, and this |
T1:5.11 | The “here” that you experience is the | experience dictated by the ego-mind, and this experience is all that |
T1:5.11 | you experience is the experience dictated by the ego-mind, and this | experience is all that makes you believe you are other than who you |
T1:5.12 | manner in which you would be once and finally convinced. You must | experience the reality of the new thought system or it will remain |
T1:5.12 | of fear on which the old thought system was built in order to | experience the new. |
T1:5.13 | The art of thought invites the | experience of the new thought system by being willing to replace the |
T1:6.6 | memory and transforming that divine memory into a present moment | experience. |
T1:6.7 | perception. If perception were all that were available to you, each | experience would begin and end and have no ability to relate to |
T1:6.7 | experiences without relating to them in the same way. It is the way | experience is related to, through memory, which shapes the different |
T1:9.13 | a few brief examples. These I ask you to cull from your own recent | experience. What has caused the ego to become more apparent to you as |
T1:10.2 | of extremes in your feelings and want to bring them back. You will | experience this loss of extremes as a lack. You will think something |
T1:10.2 | is wrong. You will feel this particularly when others around you | experience extremes. A friend is experiencing feelings on an extreme |
T1:10.2 | same reason, the reason of wanting to be fully engaged in the human | experience. |
T1:10.3 | Here is this | experience you have created and how often have you been fully engaged |
T1:10.3 | human of ways. You will cry and laugh for the poignancy of the human | experience. This is the known that you will be tempted not to give |
T1:10.4 | This is temptation. The temptation of the human | experience. This is what you continue to choose over the Peace of |
T1:10.5 | You used your free will to choose the human | experience. Now are you willing to use it to choose the Peace of God |
T1:10.6 | These extremes of the human | experience have been learning devices. They have cracked open hearts |
T1:10.6 | while you may continue to read for a lifetime. You can continue to | experience life and still carry the Peace of God within you. As you |
T1:10.8 | the Peace of God is all the joy of what you have known as the human | experience and none of the sorrow. |
T1:10.9 | Each of you will have an | experience you look back on, an experience of profound joy or grief |
T1:10.9 | Each of you will have an experience you look back on, an | experience of profound joy or grief that also became an experience of |
T1:10.9 | back on, an experience of profound joy or grief that also became an | experience of profound learning. You will think that you would not be |
T2:1.1 | it will begin to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through | experience, it will become your identity. We will begin by discussing |
T2:3.4 | between the ego-self that previously was the self of learning and | experience, and the Christ-Self that is now the Self of learning and |
T2:3.4 | experience, and the Christ-Self that is now the Self of learning and | experience. You must take on the mantle of your new identity, your |
T2:7.21 | this belief builds on the belief of the already accomplished through | experience. As you experience giving and receiving being one in |
T2:7.21 | on the belief of the already accomplished through experience. As you | experience giving and receiving being one in truth, your belief will |
T2:9.18 | accept need and dependency is necessary only as a learning ground of | experience on which trust can grow. Once this trust is realized you |
T2:10.7 | told that you can no longer believe that what you know is related to | experience, you are not being told that you have exactly the same |
T2:10.7 | same knowledge as does every person of every variety and level of | experience. Yet no one can know more of the truth than another, and |
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 relationship |
T2:13.2 | and I, as your teacher, have all but discounted the personal self I | experience in relationship with you. Now, in unity, we are ready to |
T2:13.6 | not who you truly are, but forget not also to be in joy in your | experience here. Remember that the seriousness with which you once |
T3:1.7 | you are now to play. There is not one of you who has not begun to | experience the transformation that is, in truth, occurring, although |
T3:7.4 | you are and remain endlessly who you are, even here within the human | experience. This is the idea that is beyond compare as you are beyond |
T3:7.5 | The only thing within the human | experience that made you incapable of representing who you are in |
T3:7.5 | who you are in truth was the ego. The only thing within the human | experience that deprived the human experience of meaning was the ego. |
T3:7.5 | The only thing within the human experience that deprived the human | experience of meaning was the ego. Thus, with the ego gone, you are |
T3:8.4 | is an idea intrinsically tied to the personal self and the | experience of the personal self. Whether you believe the personal |
T3:10.16 | of illusion you will continue to encounter temptations of the human | experience. These are what we will now address. |
T3:11.5 | The house of illusion is the stage on which the drama of the human | experience has been acted out. |
T3:11.11 | Thus we begin to address the temptations of the human | experience. Two are spoken of in tandem here: The temptation to judge |
T3:11.16 | This first lesson on the temptation of the human | experience comes in truth as a warning against righteousness. It |
T3:11.16 | this and all such reminders regarding the temptations of the human | experience are necessary. |
T3:12.3 | Temptations of the human | experience exist only in time. What we are about to do is move the |
T3:12.3 | exist only in time. What we are about to do is move the human | experience out of the realm of time. For this to happen, we must |
T3:12.3 | to happen, we must remove the time-bound temptations of the human | experience of the personal self. |
T3:12.4 | of Truth. How then can the personal self begin to realize the human | experience outside of time? The answer is thus: by changing the |
T3:12.7 | realm of physicality. What this means is that all that in this human | experience has come of love will be retained. All that will be lost |
T3:12.8 | Let’s return a moment to the choice that was made for the human | experience, the choice to express who you are in the realm of |
T3:13.2 | We proceed by further defining the temptations of the human | experience. In “A Treatise on the Art of Thought,” we spoke of these |
T3:13.2 | we spoke of these temptations in regards to extremes of the human | experience, saying that these things that draw you from the peace of |
T3:13.2 | of who you are, and so cause you to be aware only of a self of human | experience, or a personal self. While you may still feel a connection |
T3:13.2 | but memories to you while your reality remains that of the physical | experience and the personal self. In such times you can conceive only |
T3:13.2 | of a God outside of yourself and trust not in the benevolence of the | experience, whether it be an extreme experience of pain or of |
T3:13.2 | not in the benevolence of the experience, whether it be an extreme | experience of pain or of pleasure. You begin to fear that pleasure |
T3:14.1 | these patterns of fear remain as deterrents to action, you will not | experience the freedom of living from the new thought system. The new |
T3:14.1 | mind and heart, as nothing can now take this memory from you, but to | experience the new thought system as thought alone will not bring |
T3:14.1 | changes you would so desire to have come about within your physical | experience. You may live a more peaceful and meaningful life, but you |
T3:14.2 | flirting with illusion is like unto the temptations of the human | experience and would not occur were the temptations gone from you. |
T3:15.1 | Some of you have had more | experience with new beginnings than others. For most mature adults, |
T3:15.2 | What hampers new beginnings of all kinds within the human | experience are ideas that things cannot be different than they once |
T3:16.6 | this change has to do with the time-bound temptations of the human | experience. All of these temptations relate to the beliefs set forth |
T3:16.8 | to be other than who you are in truth is a temptation of the human | experience. It will come in many forms, all of which will be related |
T3:16.10 | you do not give. The belief in lack is a temptation of the human | experience. This will relate to all situations in which you feel you |
T3:16.12 | to have no fear. Fear of loss is a great temptation of the human | experience. If it were not for this fear of loss, you would not find |
T3:16.14 | in regards to special relationships are temptations of the human | experience. These temptations will relate to any issues that you |
T3:17.3 | there became a need for a beginning and an ending to the chosen | experience. Thus each self of form is born into time and each self of |
T3:17.3 | always existed as choices, as beginnings and endings to the finite | experience of time. It is the nature of what is finite to begin and |
T3:17.4 | is a measurement of the “time” it takes for learning to occur. A new | experience was chosen—the experience of existing within the realm |
T3:17.4 | it takes for learning to occur. A new experience was chosen—the | experience of existing within the realm of physicality. As such, it |
T3:17.5 | and separate from the self. While it was important to the desired | experience to learn the lessons of what was observable within the |
T3:17.5 | but this is exactly what has been learned during the time of your | experience in physical form. Since your true Self could not learn the |
T3:18.3 | Because this was part of the original choice for the physical | experience, it is a natural choice to serve our new purpose of the |
T3:18.3 | made for a new purpose. It is the perfect ending for the desired | experience, as it was the goal of the desired experience. |
T3:18.3 | ending for the desired experience, as it was the goal of the desired | experience. |
T3:19.4 | For ages physical reality has been linked to temptations of the human | experience. Let us now dispel this link. The physical form has been |
T3:19.9 | thought, one goal. That goal is the original thought that began the | experience in physical form, the thought of expressing the Self in |
T3:19.10 | body behind and see it not as the source of temptations of the human | experience. The true source of these temptations has been revealed to |
T3:21.10 | known what is you have never been able to be certain. You have no | experience with certainty other than—and this is a crucial other |
T3:21.10 | self. Thus your personal self is the only place in which you have | experience that can now be used for a new purpose. |
T3:21.11 | Even while this | experience is experience of an ego-self, it is still an experience as |
T3:21.11 | Even while this experience is | experience of an ego-self, it is still an experience as near to |
T3:21.11 | while this experience is experience of an ego-self, it is still an | experience as near to certainty as you have been capable, simply |
T4:1.17 | and learning through observation and direction communication or | experience. The same truth has always existed, but the choice of a |
T4:1.24 | people of the world have been demanding to learn directly, through | experience, and saying “no more” to the lessons of the |
T4:1.24 | demanding to learn through observation and direct communication or | experience. Many not yet grown to maturity have been born into the |
T4:1.25 | of consciousness in which they have lived. Others do not wish to | experience the truth directly, but only to experience experience. |
T4:1.25 | Others do not wish to experience the truth directly, but only to | experience experience. They are in the desperate throes of wanting to |
T4:1.25 | do not wish to experience the truth directly, but only to experience | experience. They are in the desperate throes of wanting to experience |
T4:1.25 | experience. They are in the desperate throes of wanting to | experience everything before they allow themselves to directly |
T4:1.25 | to experience everything before they allow themselves to directly | experience the truth, thinking still that the experience of the truth |
T4:1.25 | themselves to directly experience the truth, thinking still that the | experience of the truth will exclude much that they would want to try |
T4:1.25 | into its pull and settle there. But all have become aware that a new | experience awaits and that they stand at the threshold of choice. |
T4:1.27 | them directly through observation and direct communication or | experience. It means that the last generation born into the time of |
T4:2.15 | the Self expresses was among the original reasons for this chosen | experience. Observe now the expressions of the self you are and have |
T4:2.22 | relationship with God, or the possibility that your life is a direct | experience of the pattern of unity or oneness that is creation. |
T4:2.29 | what shared vision will mean, and do not yet recognize it when you | experience it. This is why you can still think of observance of what |
T4:3.4 | intent is synonymous with cause. The original intent of this chosen | experience was the expression of the Self of love in observable form. |
T4:4.18 | in form because this goal but reflected the desire for a temporary | experience. The temporary experience has been elongated because of |
T4:4.18 | but reflected the desire for a temporary experience. The temporary | experience has been elongated because of the appeal of the physical |
T4:4.18 | experience has been elongated because of the appeal of the physical | experience. What this Treatise is saying to you is that if the |
T4:4.18 | What this Treatise is saying to you is that if the physical | experience appeals to you, and if you create the union of the human |
T4:7.3 | and even art and literature. Those who allow themselves to | experience revelation will enter Christ-consciousness. |
T4:7.8 | choose to continue to learn through the full variety of the human | experience even after it is unnecessary. Why? Because it is a choice, |
T4:8.1 | in time chose to express love in physical form, and so began this | experience of human life. You are now beginning to be able to |
T4:8.7 | that ensued. If your reality had been like unto the reality you | experience in dreams, can you not see that you would have to learn to |
T4:10.2 | than studying, and yet you will quickly see that you merely think of | experience as learning through a different means than studying. |
T4:10.11 | was what was necessary in order to allow you to fulfill the desired | experience of expressing the Self of love in form. No longer learning |
T4:12.9 | enjoyed learning through gatherings of students, gather still, and | experience sharing directly. If a time arrives when you no longer |
T4:12.13 | relate to our earlier discussion of temptations of the human | experience. Are you willing to leave them behind? Are you willing, |
T4:12.15 | impatient or desirous of a return to journeying before you begin to | experience the joy of sharing and the new challenges of creating the |
T4:12.16 | cause of learned wisdom. It became part of the nature of the human | experience by becoming so consistent within you that it came, through |
T4:12.16 | within you that it came, through the passing down of the human | experience, to be integral to your nature. Have you not always been |
T4:12.17 | has wrought. This is a necessary end point of your review of your | experience here so that you do not continue to advance learned |
T4:12.19 | have questions, dear brothers and sisters. I know that you will | experience times of not knowing how to proceed. I know that you will |
D:2.14 | system, such as that of government, the more likely you are to | experience desired outcomes. Either way, control is seen as a |
D:4.19 | structure that will provide you with parameters in which to begin to | experience your new freedom. It is your questions and concerns that |
D:4.19 | freedom at all, let us simply speak of a place and a way to begin to | experience it, and of a place and a way to begin to create the new. |
D:5.7 | painful rather than pleasurable, if you did not lose yourself and | experience completion, you would not desire it. Sex, experienced for |
D:6.26 | however, that there are portions of your Self missing from this new | experience in form you now enter into, but that the elevated Self of |
D:6.27 | The self of form, as form, could never truly | experience the All of Everything that is the natural state of the |
D:6.27 | the natural state of the formless. But the true Self cannot cease to | experience its natural state, the state of Christ-consciousness, |
D:7.1 | in the shared consciousness of unity you couldn’t know what the | experience of form would be like without entering into it, you cannot |
D:7.1 | of form would be like without entering into it, you cannot know the | experience of unity without entering into it. To “enter” into the |
D:7.1 | experience of unity without entering into it. To “enter” into the | experience of form is something you can picture in your mind, and |
D:7.1 | because you are aware of the self of form. To “enter” into the | experience of unity is something more difficult to imagine, and |
D:7.4 | Experiences of form take place in time because | experience, too, was designed for learning. Now experience is needed |
D:7.4 | in time because experience, too, was designed for learning. Now | experience is needed in time to aid your total acceptance of what you |
D:7.4 | to aid your total acceptance of what you have learned. In order to | experience the new you must answer the call to let revelation and |
D:7.4 | and discovery, rather than learning, be what you gain from | experience. |
D:7.21 | of matter upon matter, and of the creature’s perception of its own | experience in time. This time-bound evolution is really adaptation. |
D:8.2 | are too used to thinking of yourself as a learning being to truly | experience the freedom of not being bound by this constraint. In all |
D:10.6 | increase. To be content with personal or individual understanding or | experience of what is given is to not complete the cycle of giving |
D:14.13 | it will begin to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through | experience, it will become your identity.” That treasure is the new |
D:Day2.6 | is not as strong as it once was, and you are very unlikely to still | experience guilt or shame; but the hurts you have done others may |
D:Day3.20 | that abundance is a favor of God and, as such, those who do not | experience abundance have done something wrong. We will return to |
D:Day3.21 | constant “takers,” unafraid to ask for a “hand out” or free lunch, | experience these same emotions, the buildup of anger, resentment, and |
D:Day3.52 | to money, or abundance, each stage is experienced and felt. This | experience has only one combined value, one combined purpose, the |
D:Day4.1 | the temptations of these arguments, these temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day4.2 | to show you this: That on one side are the temptations of the human | experience, which is just another way of saying all that you have |
D:Day4.2 | that will incite you to leave behind the temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day4.3 | you feel as if you have a choice when the temptations of the human | experience are the only choices that have been known to you? Thus you |
D:Day4.34 | that you are here to fast from want. You know that you are here to | experience both the old temptations and the new. You realize that |
D:Day4.42 | tales of your experiences here and be made special because of this | experience you can recount? |
D:Day4.45 | this place and tempted to leave behind the temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day4.56 | the kind of discourse that can only be had without fear. To truly | experience relationship. It is from this beginning that you will come |
D:Day4.60 | to you and put behind us forever the temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day6.14 | be there if only you could be truly “taken away” from it all and | experience nothing but our relationship, focus on nothing but your |
D:Day6.20 | moment to the temptations associated with the mountain top of my own | experience. They were temptations of the world, of the normal, daily |
D:Day6.20 | of elevation I knew I had attained. The temptations of the human | experience are the same now as they were then. They are the same on |
D:Day6.23 | when the teacher steps aside, and the apprentice is able to gain | experience, that the apprentice is in a position to be able to begin |
D:Day9.2 | Allow yourself, now, to | experience your arrival, your return to your true home, your return |
D:Day10.3 | the apostles, let your conviction spring from your willingness to | experience its cause and its effect. I am asking you now to be |
D:Day10.26 | ideal self you left much room for feelings of the type you currently | experience. This is why we have recently spoken of anger and of those |
D:Day13.3 | You are thus not meant to lose the | experience of the self of form but to integrate it so that you are |
D:Day15.23 | Practice is the merging of the known and the unknown through | experience, action, expression, and exchange. It alters the known |
D:Day18.9 | of separation that was able to occur to allow for a certain type of | experience. Now a new degree of union is occurring to allow for a new |
D:Day18.9 | Now a new degree of union is occurring to allow for a new type of | experience. |
D:Day21.9 | You began your mountain top | experience with a companion who had offered himself as a teacher in |
D:Day27.2 | form within you but will not come into its fullness except through | experience. This certainty has only been able to begin to form within |
D:Day27.2 | to form within you because you have agreed to this mountain top | experience while remaining engaged in life. You have thus begun to |
D:Day27.2 | experience while remaining engaged in life. You have thus begun to | experience on two levels. This has been a goal of the time we have |
D:Day27.3 | Experiencing life without the insight of spirit was to | experience external life. Life itself showed you the way, pointed you |
D:Day27.3 | taught you what you needed to know. This was the external | experience of life. Most of you have had well-examined external |
D:Day27.5 | have practiced during our mountain top time together the ability to | experience on two levels. |
D:Day27.6 | Coming to know is a quality of inner-sight, of wholehearted human | experience combined with spiritual experience. You are and always |
D:Day27.6 | of wholehearted human experience combined with spiritual | experience. You are and always have been both human and spirit, both |
D:Day27.6 | within you the ability to combine both levels of being through the | experience of life. You have already been doing this. You are, in |
D:Day27.9 | The two levels of | experience which you have been participating in are the joint |
D:Day27.9 | as dualistic in nature can be experienced as different levels of | experience of one whole. You might consider this by again picturing |
D:Day27.9 | of one whole. Different aspects exist only as different levels of | experience. |
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 external, |
D:Day27.10 | and carry with you the ability to experience both levels of | experience, the internal and the external, the form and the content, |
D:Day27.12 | you might think for a moment, just as an illustration, of your | experience of separation always taking place at a certain number of |
D:Day27.12 | cold. Yet the perfect temperature always existed, you just did not | experience it. You were, in other words, separate from it because of |
D:Day27.12 | you chose. Because you never chose union, or wholeness, you did not | experience lack of body temperature or the effects of weather, but it |
D:Day27.13 | is a constant and an aspect of wholeness. The variability of how you | experience who you are is also a constant within the aspect of |
D:Day27.13 | the aspect of separation. Merge the two, however, into one level of | experience and the whole formula changes. |
D:Day27.14 | is what we move toward as we practice participating in two levels of | experience simultaneously. We practice experiencing the constant and |
D:Day27.14 | and the variable together. We practice in order to move toward an | experience of variability within wholeness rather than within |
D:Day27.15 | Life is oneness extended into separation and variability through | experience. The elevated Self of form will be the expression of new |
D:Day27.15 | of new life lived within the constant of wholeness but continuing to | experience the variability of separation. This is what you practice |
D:Day27.16 | Separation, as well as the variability of the | experience of the separate self, have always been variables that |
D:Day27.16 | What you have experienced, however, has not been wholeness or the | experience of wholeness, but the experience of separation. What we |
D:Day27.16 | has not been wholeness or the experience of wholeness, but the | experience of separation. What we are speaking of now is being able |
D:Day27.16 | of separation. What we are speaking of now is being able to | experience wholeness and the variability of experience that has come |
D:Day27.16 | of now is being able to experience wholeness and the variability of | experience that has come through the separated self of form. This is |
D:Day27.16 | to do through your practice. Your proficiency will change your | experience, and your experience will change the world. |
D:Day27.16 | practice. Your proficiency will change your experience, and your | experience will change the world. |
D:Day28.1 | Moving from an externally directed to an internally directed | experience of life creates unlimited choices. The unlimited choices |
D:Day28.1 | unlimited choices. The unlimited choices of internally directed | experience are what you must begin to face as we begin our descent |
D:Day28.3 | through life. Many people, especially young adults, have little | experience other than this. Their lives are directed almost totally |
D:Day28.5 | avenues to explore at times open up, leading to the next level of | experience: That of external movement toward a chosen type of life. |
D:Day28.8 | the reality of wholeness that is new. The reality of being able to | experience the variability of separation from within the state of |
D:Day28.18 | can only take place within time because only within time is the | experience of separation possible, and experience is where the power |
D:Day28.18 | only within time is the experience of separation possible, and | experience is where the power of transformation lies. This |
D:Day28.18 | transformation will, however, take you beyond time, because once | experience is moved out of the realm of separation and into the realm |
D:Day28.19 | change, the transformation, we have been working on by changing your | experience of time to one of experiencing two levels of “time.” Our |
D:Day28.20 | to occur, however. What will create the shift is the ability to | experience “time outside of time” and “time” simultaneously. Thus is |
D:Day28.22 | To move to internally directed | experience is to make the move into wholeness that will cause the |
D:Day28.22 | the move into wholeness that will cause the “shift of the ages,” the | experience of variability within wholeness. |
D:Day28.23 | This is what our time on the mountain has provided you with: The | experience required in order to realize a new possibility. |
D:Day28.25 | Separation is desired no longer, but | experience is. Your will and God’s are one and thus it is being made |
D:Day29.1 | have already realized the ability to participate in two levels of | experience simultaneously and that duality is really just a matter of |
D:Day29.1 | and that duality is really just a matter of different levels of | experience. If you can be having the experience of the mountain top |
D:Day29.1 | a matter of different levels of experience. If you can be having the | experience of the mountain top and the experience of level ground |
D:Day29.1 | If you can be having the experience of the mountain top and the | experience of level ground simultaneously, then you can also have the |
D:Day29.1 | of level ground simultaneously, then you can also have the | experience of all other “opposites” in this same, simultaneous way. |
D:Day29.1 | If you can integrate all that opposes wholeness into one level of | experience, you will be able to experience life from within the |
D:Day29.1 | opposes wholeness into one level of experience, you will be able to | experience life from within the reality of wholeness rather than from |
D:Day29.5 | a part of the process that has allowed you access to two levels of | experience. It is your access to two levels of experience—the |
D:Day29.5 | to two levels of experience. It is your access to two levels of | experience—the experience of wholeness and the experience of |
D:Day29.5 | of experience. It is your access to two levels of experience—the | experience of wholeness and the experience of separation. While you |
D:Day29.5 | to two levels of experience—the experience of wholeness and the | experience of separation. While you may have seen it as access to |
D:Day29.6 | your spacious self has also been part of the process and part of the | experience of merging wholeness and separation. While you may have |
D:Day29.7 | and where you are, for who you are and where you find yourself, and | experience yourself, are your reality. This is why experience has |
D:Day29.7 | yourself, and experience yourself, are your reality. This is why | experience has needed to find a place in which it could become the |
D:Day29.7 | the common denominator between wholeness and separation. Once you | experience yourself in wholeness and find yourself in union, you have |
D:Day29.7 | union, you have made of yourself the common denominator upon which | experience can find anchor in wholeness and union. |
D:Day30.2 | The two levels of | experience we have spoken of might be seen as the process, much like |
D:Day30.5 | Now let us consider this in terms of | experience. As knower and known are one, experience and experiencer |
D:Day30.5 | consider this in terms of experience. As knower and known are one, | experience and experiencer are one. In other words, one must |
D:Day30.5 | one, experience and experiencer are one. In other words, one must | experience in order to know. It follows then that what is experienced |
D:Day30.5 | is experienced is what is known. It also follows then, that to not | experience joining is to not experience wholeness. Stated another |
D:Day30.5 | It also follows then, that to not experience joining is to not | experience wholeness. Stated another way, the self cannot know the |
D:Day30.5 | with the Self. The Self must be the knower and the known, the | experience and the experiencer. The quest to join with God is this |
D:Day30.5 | God is this quest. The quest to be the knower and the known, the | experience and the experiencer. The culmination of this quest then, |
D:Day31.1 | relationship. Let us consider this by considering the two levels of | experience—that of the mountain top experience—and that of the |
D:Day31.1 | considering the two levels of experience—that of the mountain top | experience—and that of the experience on level ground. |
D:Day31.1 | experience—that of the mountain top experience—and that of the | experience on level ground. |
D:Day31.2 | While you have been immersed in one level of | experience you have been either knower or known. This is why |
D:Day31.2 | of experience you have been either knower or known. This is why | experience has seemed to exist apart from you. You say, “I had this |
D:Day31.2 | apart from you. You say, “I had this experience” or “I had that | experience,” as if you have “had” contact and interaction with |
D:Day31.2 | of the unity in which relationship exists. You “know” the | experience because you have “had” the experience. The truth that you |
D:Day31.2 | exists. You “know” the experience because you have “had” the | experience. The truth that you are the experience escapes you. |
D:Day31.2 | because you have “had” the experience. The truth that you are the | experience escapes you. |
D:Day31.3 | What the mountain top | experience is helping you to see is that you are the experience. The |
D:Day31.3 | mountain top experience is helping you to see is that you are the | experience. The mountain top experience did not happen to you or |
D:Day31.3 | helping you to see is that you are the experience. The mountain top | experience did not happen to you or happen separately from you. It |
D:Day31.3 | from you. It has happened and is happening within you. You are the | experience and the experiencer, the knower and the known. This |
D:Day31.3 | the knower and the known. This joining is the point of the | experience and the key to experiencing wholeness. |
D:Day31.5 | To have experienced only separation is to have known only half of any | experience, to have seen every experience in only one dimension—in |
D:Day31.5 | is to have known only half of any experience, to have seen every | experience in only one dimension—in short, to have seen experience |
D:Day31.5 | seen every experience in only one dimension—in short, to have seen | experience as happening to you rather than as you. By realizing the |
D:Day31.5 | than as you. By realizing the unity of the relationship in which | experience becomes manifest, you not only realize oneness, but |
D:Day31.6 | All | experience is a product of knower and knowee. It is the One Self |
