C:1.18 | you label joyous or compassionate are of love. All feelings you | label painful or angry are of fear. This is all there is. This is the |
C:2.3 | you are something other than love and separate from love. You | label love a feeling, and one of many. Yet you have been told there |
C:2.6 | from the same place, is an error of enormous proportions. You again | label love a “sometimes” component and think that to act in love more |
C:2.6 | and think that to act in love more frequently is an achievement. You | label acting from love “good” and acting out of anger “bad.” You feel |
C:2.7 | living that hell is solidified and becomes quite real. You can | label joy heaven and pain hell and seek the middle ground for your |
C:7.6 | the call to love. Some will not give up hope to cynicism. Others | label it ethics, morals, values, and say this is the line I will |
C:8.6 | your face to redden and your heart to beat with a heaviness you | label anger or a sting you would call shame. Problems that mount up |
C:9.14 | as all the rest. It is the separated self that feels impelled to | label feelings good and bad, some worthy of acknowledgment and the |
C:9.19 | own. You hide fear beneath the surface, and behind each alternative | label you would give it, in a desperate attempt to see it not. To |
C:9.38 | all your eggs in one basket.” You seek to balance the things you | label drudgery and the things you label exciting. In doing so you see |
C:9.38 | You seek to balance the things you label drudgery and the things you | label exciting. In doing so you see yourself as “spending your time” |
C:9.45 | apparent. Again you would place the blame outside yourself and | label drugs, alcohol, tobacco, gambling, and even food as destructive |
C:17.5 | loyal to the world you see. This is why even Heaven, which you would | label good, is not wholly good in your estimation of it. Why is it |
C:21.7 | that there are two ways of viewing a situation, even if you do not | label one way of viewing or perceiving being of the mind and the |
T3:6.5 | You may believe that bitterness is just another word, another | label for the evil you have always been convinced existed in the |
T3:14.2 | threatened by some situation or person and judgment would return to | label what is happening as “bad.” A “god” outside of the self would |
D:Day4.50 | nor to focus on acceptance of one thing over another. You are not to | label good or bad. Just to accept. Accept all. You do not have to |
D:Day4.54 | back except fear! You do not have to be perfect—perfect is but a | label, and all labels of any type cause is delay. You only have to be |
labeled (7) |

C:2.3 | love and fear. Because you have chosen fear so many times and | labeled it so many things you no longer recognize it as fear. The |
C:5.11 | from love. You are not bad, and you have no feelings that can be | labeled so. Yet you are misguided concerning what your feelings mean |
C:5.14 | had with anything. Outside of you is all that you have kept apart, | labeled, judged, and collected on your shelves. |
C:9.13 | you attempt to name and keep cleverly in a box that you have | labeled this or that often are not content to stay where you would |
T1:4.14 | kind of thinking that has caused you to blame God for what you have | labeled “bad” as well as to praise God for what you have labeled |
T1:4.14 | you have labeled “bad” as well as to praise God for what you have | labeled “good”? Would not this kind of a creator be at odds with the |
T2:9.12 | desire to maintain a state you believe you have achieved and have | labeled a state in which your needs are met creates a static level, |

C:1.14 | Lack of striving is seen as a settling for less. This would be true | |
C:1.18 | new choice. But you must realize that this is all there is. Love or | lack of love. Love is all that is real. A choice for love is a choice |
C:8.18 | aware than ever of its actions and complaints, its sturdiness or | lack thereof. You may be realizing how it governs your existence and |
C:9.17 | be as separate as he is. It always seems as if others have what you | lack and what you are looking for. You seem to be alone in your |
C:9.17 | looking for. You seem to be alone in your frailty, loneliness, and | lack of love. Others misunderstand you and know you not, and neither |
C:9.37 | you would have it do. Its purpose, simply stated, is to supply a | lack. This is your definition of completion. What is missing in you |
C:10.12 | These attempts to fool yourself are based on your | lack of understanding rather than your lack of belief. You would not |
C:10.12 | yourself are based on your lack of understanding rather than your | lack of belief. You would not still be reading if you believed you |
C:11.1 | and it has helped to solidify your stance against union and your | lack of desire for instruction. This is due to your confusion about |
C:11.2 | created you cannot be one with you. Again this only points to your | lack of recognition of what creation really is. And yet when you |
C:11.3 | if you have less. You then begin your attempts to acquire what you | lack, so that you no longer have less than anyone else. Some of you |
C:14.16 | Only fear breeds the feelings of | lack that stand with it, the cornerstone of the foundation of your |
C:17.9 | This willingness is what you do not offer. Yet this is due to your | lack of understanding about the nature of creation, and can be |
C:18.19 | you never left the state of unity that you do not recognize. Your | lack of recognition can thus be overcome by remembering the truth of |
C:18.21 | so only to differentiate your feelings of love from your feelings of | lack of love or fear. What we have as yet talked even less of, |
C:18.23 | that all you experience as painful is the result of feelings of | lack of love, and that all you have experienced as pleasurable are |
C:20.28 | Because you are changeless and boundless, you are all-powerful. Only | lack of expression leads to powerlessness. No true expression is |
C:21.5 | much misunderstanding. Occasionally the problems associated with a | lack of a common language have been set aside when the actions needed |
C:21.5 | action currently occurs primarily in crisis situations because of a | lack of shared language. The formation of a shared language can thus |
C:22.10 | within your world needing to pass through layers with a seeming | lack of purpose for the passing through. |
C:25.5 | is in the perceiver rather than the perceived. Each time you feel a | lack of love, it comes from within yourself. This lack of love, or |
C:25.5 | time you feel a lack of love, it comes from within yourself. This | lack of love, or “faked” love of which you cannot help but be aware, |
C:25.5 | you want something, you are also becoming aware that you feel you | lack something. All feelings of lack are synonymous with feelings of |
C:25.5 | becoming aware that you feel you lack something. All feelings of | lack are synonymous with feelings of fear. Where there is fear, love |
C:25.6 | When you feel a | lack of love in others, you have projected your fear onto them. Only |
C:25.7 | When you feel | lack of love, you feel as if the “other” gives you nothing. Yet it is |
C:25.7 | love, you feel as if the “other” gives you nothing. Yet it is your | lack of ability to receive that causes this feeling. The practice of |
C:25.7 | to a desired end. You must practice recognizing your feelings of | lack of love, and realize these feelings come from your inability to |
C:25.12 | believe that you have no need for struggle, to believe you have no | lack, to believe in your state of grace. While you believe even one |
C:25.13 | believe acted toward you without love. While you believe feelings of | lack of love come from anywhere but within, you will not be |
C:29.2 | to a higher Will or higher Cause. Some of you associate it with a | lack of free will, a lack of choice, a course that will lead you to a |
C:29.2 | higher Cause. Some of you associate it with a lack of free will, a | lack of choice, a course that will lead you to a subservient stature. |
T1:3.6 | the quest for miracles is a quest for proof that demonstrates a | lack of faith but the reverse is true. What kind of miracle would |
T1:3.6 | faith but the reverse is true. What kind of miracle would lead to a | lack of faith? There is no such kind of miracle. |
T1:3.11 | your power, but your failure would require you to contemplate your | lack of it. If you asked for a miracle and it did not come to be, |
T1:3.17 | to miracles, only to having them performed through you. Your | lack of willingness to perform miracles, you will say, stems from |
T1:3.24 | not the choices made in each of these scenarios and the reasoning or | lack of reasoning behind them? You are not worthy. You are not |
T1:6.6 | prerequisite. To pray out of fear is to ask from an unreal state of | lack for what is seen as missing or desired. In contrast, true |
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 |
T1:9.16 | undervalued rather than looking for an other to provide what you | lack. This is important and universal in its impact. It would seem to |
T1:10.2 | it. And this will be tempting on occasion. You will wonder at the | lack of extremes in your feelings and want to bring them back. You |
T1:10.2 | to bring them back. You will experience this loss of extremes as a | lack. You will think something is wrong. You will feel this |
T2:4.14 | understand truly. Change is not negative and growth does not imply | lack. |
T2:7.5 | is the cause for fear? What is the hidden source of your feelings of | lack or deprivation? What is the hidden source of your desire to |
T2:9.10 | to attain something is the extent to which your belief in want or | lack is revealed. This is the purview of special relationships. Thus |
T2:11.16 | for good to win out over evil. But this is not the new way and the | lack of value from this type of effort can surely now be seen. |
T3:6.3 | idea of reward transfers to ideas related to comparison as well, as | lack of reward in one instance and reward given in another, is the |
T3:11.10 | While a | lack of judgment has been stressed many times, and we have adhered to |
T3:14.2 | less and be more content living a simple life. If you have felt a | lack of respect you may feel that what others think of you matters |
T3:14.7 | by perceived illness, the life of scarcity caused by perceived | lack, the lack of stature caused by perceived disrespect. It is only |
T3:14.7 | illness, the life of scarcity caused by perceived lack, the | lack of stature caused by perceived disrespect. It is only by your |
T3:16.10 | that you are lacking only in what you do not give. The belief in | lack is a temptation of the human experience. This will relate to all |
T3:16.12 | might bring. These fears rob you of your certainty and result in a | lack of trust. The key to resisting these temptations is not |
T3:19.6 | been blamed for all actions that have arisen from real and perceived | lack. Yet the body has no will and the survival of the true Self is |
T4:1.7 | stated as all are chosen for schooling. Some might look at this as | lack of choice, saying that anything that is mandatory allows no room |
T4:1.8 | made from fear or made from love. But there is, in other words, no | lack of choice. A choice is always made. A choice to accept or |
T4:2.14 | ideas of specialness. One of the best means for us to clarify the | lack of specialness implied in the statement that all are chosen, is |
T4:8.8 | inconsistent with God. Judgment is inconsistent with God. Bondage or | lack of freedom is inconsistent with God. |
T4:9.6 | Do not accept this | lack of fulfillment of a promise that has surely been made! Rejoice |

T4:10.11 | No longer learning has to do with the realization that there is no | lack. Learning was what was necessary in order to allow you to |

D:15.2 | or the stiffness of death, is nothing but a lack of movement, a | lack of movement of the blood through the veins and the consequent |
D:15.2 | stiffening of the muscles. The Dead Sea is a “dead” sea because of | lack of movement. Thus these are excellent examples to illustrate the |
D:15.2 | to illustrate the principle of movement as life itself, the idea of | lack of movement as lack of life. |
D:15.2 | of movement as life itself, the idea of lack of movement as | lack of life. |
D:15.7 | which is as great a signifier of movement as rigor mortis is of | lack of movement, is the first element mentioned in this particular |
D:16.3 | of full, the opposite of wholeness. It is the perceived condition of | lack. It is the belief that what animated form with life did not |

D:Day3.1 | it is truly all about. It is about the way you have learned and your | lack of understanding of what this did to you. |
D:Day3.6 | tell you truly, here is where your greatest anger, and your greatest | lack of belief and acceptance, lies. |
D:Day3.8 | do not believe this spiritual context is capable of bringing you the | lack of want you associate most strongly with money. |
D:Day3.9 | forth between the general and specific, thinking of both your own | lack in life and that of those whose lack is more pronounced than |
D:Day3.9 | thinking of both your own lack in life and that of those whose | lack is more pronounced than your own. Fairness seems non-existent in |
D:Day3.12 | speak more of here. It is the base idea that is behind all ideas of | lack, an idea you so thoroughly learned during the time of learning |
D:Day3.20 | than the shame those feel who feel no abundance, who suffer a | lack of money. There is still a commonly held belief that abundance |
D:Day3.28 | of progress through effort, and just as assured of ruin through | lack of effort. |
D:Day3.49 | based on the belief that you are responsible for the abundance or | lack of abundance in your life. That it is you who, by changing your |

D:Day3.51 | is depression, a lowering of spirits and energy, a lack of desire, a | lack of activity, a sinking feeling of going under, of going into the |
D:Day3.59 | universe, of God, of the All of All, and still accept the reality of | lack. You cannot accept that in the reality of unity all things come |
D:Day4.9 | way things “are” within the world. This is an anger that stems from | lack of choice. When you are “taught” the “way things are,” where is |
D:Day4.43 | once again become a glutton of want, when you once again feel the | lack that you would pray for? Surely this you can do, for I deny no |
D:Day6.15 | not to make it so. And so, abundance will have to come first, | lack of cause for worry will have to come first, an ability to focus |
D:Day6.28 | here—in the passionate acceptance of our work together. And so the | lack of desire you are experiencing for other areas of the life you |
D:Day9.1 | Freedom from want, freedom from | lack, freedom from repression, are what we will now enjoy together on |
D:Day9.1 | place of safety and of rest, a place away from “normal” life and the | lack of freedom you have experienced there. I am your refuge from the |
D:Day9.12 | comparison. It arose from seeking. It arose from your perception of | lack. |
D:Day10.4 | Conviction is tied to belief, and to a former | lack of belief that has been overcome. Reliance is not tied to belief |
D:Day10.4 | thus releases you from the need for belief. Certainty is complete | lack of doubt and any perceived need for doubt. |
D:Day10.7 | that lead you to either a state of confidence or to a state of | lack of confidence could be spoken of most succinctly by considering |
D:Day10.8 | You may have reacted to the intuition with confidence or with | lack of confidence. |
D:Day10.11 | these feelings as much as you have trusted in rational thought. This | lack of trust works both for you and against you now. It works for |
D:Day10.28 | And do you not, in all honesty, think that even in whatever form or | lack of form they now occupy, they do not like it, even now, even |
D:Day13.5 | no love there is no God present. Where there is no love there is a | lack of godliness or what you have defined as evil. A complete lack |
D:Day13.5 | is a lack of godliness or what you have defined as evil. A complete | lack of love creates formidable obstacles, or in other words, |
D:Day13.7 | totally spacious, for fear is part of the density of form, being a | lack of love. |
D:Day27.12 | Because you never chose union, or wholeness, you did not experience | lack of body temperature or the effects of weather, but it is as if |
D:Day36.5 | responses to the circumstances of your birth, your opportunities or | lack of opportunities, the fateful incidents that you encountered, |
A.18 | Let me be clear. The seeming | lack of difficulty in this Course is where its difficulty lies. To |

C:P.2 | praying for all those in need of miracles you are praying for all to | learn as you learn, you are asking to link your mind with all minds. |
C:P.2 | those in need of miracles you are praying for all to learn as you | learn, you are asking to link your mind with all minds. You are |
C:P.2 | mind with all minds. You are asking to end your separated state and | learn in a state of unity. This is a basic recognition that this is |
C:P.2 | of unity. This is a basic recognition that this is the only way you | learn. |
C:P.3 | The separated self or the ego does not | learn. Even when the ego has taken many courses and received many |
C:P.3 | Spirit does not need a course in miracles. If the ego cannot | learn and the spirit does not need to, then who is this Course and |
C:P.3 | is capable of learning, is something everyone must do. Can the ego | learn this? Never. Does spirit need to? No. Who, then, is this Course |
C:P.42 | Your willingness to | learn is evident or you would not be here. You have been told and |
C:P.42 | is mighty? Only because you have not vanquished the ego. You | learn and then you let the ego come and take all you have learned |
C:P.43 | now are to help you separate the ego from your Self, to help you | learn to hear only one voice. |
C:1.5 | Yet when you apply your thought to learning you | learn. Let this encourage you. This is an ability we can use together |
C:1.5 | Let this encourage you. This is an ability we can use together to | learn anew. |
C:1.8 | would continue to grow. You might consider that you could still | learn from your mistakes and find the learning in the end to be the |
C:1.8 | eventually you would realize that it would be quicker and easier to | learn without mistakes, and eventually you would realize also that |
C:1.9 | sit in a classroom being taught the same lessons and not one will | learn in exactly the same way as another. This is true with the |
C:1.9 | and learning of the truth as well. The only way that you can fail to | learn the truth is to demand to learn it on your own. For on your own |
C:1.9 | The only way that you can fail to learn the truth is to demand to | learn it on your own. For on your own it is impossible to learn. |
C:1.9 | demand to learn it on your own. For on your own it is impossible to | learn. |
C:1.10 | that I will teach you the truth. Find no shame in this. You cannot | learn what I would teach you without me. You have tried in countless |
C:1.10 | try hard enough. But because it is impossible. It is impossible to | learn anything on your own. Your determination to do so only blocks |
C:1.10 | only blocks your learning. It is only through union with me that you | learn because it is only in union with me that you are your Self. All |
C:1.13 | and only when you give up trying to reach it can you begin to | learn anything of value. You are complete only within God, where you |
C:2.21 | to change. Remember that cause and effect are one. What you want to | learn you cannot fail to learn. |
C:2.21 | cause and effect are one. What you want to learn you cannot fail to | learn. |
C:3.2 | be learned and you cannot be learned. All that you desire and cannot | learn is already accomplished. It is accomplished in you. It is you. |
C:3.2 | or the cheetah, the sun or the moon or God Himself, attempting to | learn what they are. They are the same as you. All exist within you. |
C:3.13 | You have not given up the idea that you are in control of what you | learn, nor have you accepted that you can learn in a way that you |
C:3.13 | are in control of what you learn, nor have you accepted that you can | learn in a way that you have not learned before. Thus we move from |
C:3.16 | from knowledge, take heart. We give up trying. We simply | learn in a new way and in our learning realize that our light shines |
C:3.16 | and here we concentrate our energies and our learning, soon to | learn that what we would know cannot be computed in the databanks of |
C:3.23 | of love’s strength. For this we will return to again and again as we | learn to recognize what love is. |
C:5.3 | I said earlier, it is only through union with me that you | learn, because it is only in union with me that you are your Self. |
C:5.5 | This is what you can’t conceive of and what your heart must newly | learn. All truth is generalizable because truth is not concerned with |
C:6.2 | for being other than what you have thought it to be and begin to | learn what it really is? This is what the world is here for. And when |
C:6.4 | help of the Holy Spirit, being turned into that which will help you | learn what your reality really is. Yet you still refuse to listen and |
C:6.4 | what your reality really is. Yet you still refuse to listen and to | learn. You still prefer things to be other than what they are and, |
C:6.6 | start you on the path to learning what your heart would have you | learn. |
C:6.7 | that you are not meant to be alone. Everything here is to help you | learn to perceive correctly, and from there to go beyond perception |
C:7.8 | set aside and the piece of yourself that you won’t let go. As you | learn that what you give you will receive in truth, you will see that |
C:8.19 | of your body is a good way to achieve this, but as you observe you | learn to hold yourself apart from what you see. A reminder is needed |
C:8.26 | destroy you that were in truth meant to teach you what you needed to | learn to lead you to a success you now enjoy. |
C:9.18 | relationships you seek to end your loneliness can do so if you but | learn to see relationship differently. As with all your problems in |
C:9.32 | You | learn your concept of using others from the reality you have made in |
C:10.1 | would control? How can it make you do other than you choose to do? | Learn this lesson well, for herein lies the cure to all disease and |
C:10.3 | retaining part you retain all. This will lead to seeming failure to | learn what I would have you learn. What God would have me teach, you |
C:10.3 | This will lead to seeming failure to learn what I would have you | learn. What God would have me teach, you cannot fail to learn, but |
C:10.3 | have you learn. What God would have me teach, you cannot fail to | learn, but neither can you learn of it in parts. The thought system |
C:10.3 | would have me teach, you cannot fail to learn, but neither can you | learn of it in parts. The thought system of truth is as wholly |
C:10.6 | ear, the lie that it would have you believe makes all else you would | learn here as impossible as this. You listen to this voice because it |
C:11.1 | that causes it to function, then you would indeed be required to | learn things on your own, for all true learning must come from your |
C:11.3 | risk of trying too hard to be earnest rather than simply desiring to | learn. |
C:11.4 | is all about is as ridiculous as feeling as if you have failed to | learn what love is. Neither can happen. And your perception that |
C:18.8 | have attempted to help you see: a world you can observe and | learn in and from, for as long as you would choose to learn what the |
C:18.8 | observe and learn in and from, for as long as you would choose to | learn what the idea of separation would teach you. Making a new |
C:18.8 | idea of separation would teach you. Making a new choice, a choice to | learn from unity, is what this Course prepares you for. |
C:18.9 | of a split mind. It cannot be emphasized strongly enough that you | learn what you choose to learn. For proof of this all you need do is |
C:18.9 | be emphasized strongly enough that you learn what you choose to | learn. For proof of this all you need do is look at the world that |
C:18.9 | you need do is look at the world that was created from your wish to | learn what the idea of separation would teach you. When you resided |
C:18.9 | the extent of involvement this learning would require. In order to | learn what the idea of separation would teach you, you needed to |
C:18.11 | unity will alter your belief system and that of others, for what you | learn in unity is shared. Because you are currently learning from |
C:18.13 | from what unity can teach you must be birthed as an idea. To hear or | learn of another’s idea is not to give birth to it. You thus must |
C:18.23 | learning device. But you have not recognized this and have failed to | learn that all you experience as painful is the result of feelings of |
C:19.5 | of another kind is your willingness to accept that you are here to | learn, and that your body can provide the means. |
C:19.10 | a body by those who believed in me, although I had a body to help me | learn just as you do. |
C:19.12 | reunited with me as they were united with the Christ. You thus must | learn to see yourself as you see your brothers and sisters, and place |
C:22.16 | apart from everything else within your world. Anyone wanting to | learn anything about you would be wiser to observe you as you are |
C:22.19 | cannot conceive of the story without the “I.” Yet this you must | learn to do, and this task is given you as an exercise. |
C:23.23 | You are not being tested but given opportunities for unlearning. To | learn that a previously held belief is no longer valid is the only |
C:23.25 | of course your mind will resist unlearning what it has striven to | learn—return your dedication to union. Acknowledge your mind’s |
C:23.27 | situations is a reflection of belief that you have nothing to | learn. An attitude of openness is required for unlearning and new |
C:23.29 | You might ask, how do you | learn what you have failed to learn previously? What are the lessons? |
C:23.29 | You might ask, how do you learn what you have failed to | learn previously? What are the lessons? What is the curriculum? How |
C:24.1 | Where you learned to hate, you will | learn to love. Where you learned to fear, you will learn safety. |
C:24.1 | to hate, you will learn to love. Where you learned to fear, you will | learn safety. Where you learned to distrust, you will learn trust. |
C:24.1 | fear, you will learn safety. Where you learned to distrust, you will | learn trust. And each learning experience will be a learning |
C:25.12 | and vulnerable state. During the time of tenderness, you will | learn, through the practice of devotion, to identify and reject all |
C:25.19 | feelings of unlearning, and should be accepted as such. You will | learn that while some things you have done and will continue to do |
C:25.19 | they may still be done with patience, grace, and love. You will | learn that other things you have done, beliefs you have held, |
C:25.23 | or that the answer you have received is correct, you will soon | learn to trust this quiet process of discernment. You will know you |
C:25.24 | way. Remind yourself that you have nothing to lose. You will soon | learn that this is so. You will also soon realize why this time of |
C:27.13 | you are. Living in relationship is living in the present. How do you | learn to move from living in separation to living in relationship? |
C:27.17 | As you | learn to live in relationship in the present, this confusion will |
C:29.27 | No chance to | learn or grow is ever missed. Each still exists, though not in time. |
C:30.2 | some eventual outcome, rather than for your being. You attempt to | learn for something other than your Self, for some purpose other than |
C:30.2 | for being separated from the Self and your function here. When you | learn in order to contribute something to your work and your world, |
C:30.3 | order to make it part of your Self. Be like the little children, and | learn in order to claim your learning for your Self. Learn who you |
C:30.3 | children, and learn in order to claim your learning for your Self. | Learn who you are through each experience rather than learning in |
C:31.13 | Impossible learning goals lead to depression. This is why we must | learn anew with a mind and heart joined in wholeheartedness. |
C:31.20 | to love are seen in a new light, a light that keeps what you would | learn to help you remember who you are, and in that remembrance |
C:31.22 | think you are, but about who you truly are, and yet it is the way to | learn the difference while learning is still necessary. |
C:31.23 | lies within everything that exists, as it lies within you. As you | learn that who you are is love, no deception is possible, and you can |
C:31.28 | If you but change what you look for, what you see and what you | learn will also change. |
C:31.29 | back what you think your brothers and sisters want to see, they can | learn nothing from you. If your truth about who you think you are |
C:31.37 | ideas of our Father and me as you have realized that you are here to | learn. Now, with a clear learning goal in mind, these idealized |
T1:1.1 | A split mind does not | learn for a split mind is incapable of giving and receiving as one. A |
T1:2.1 | ending is but a beginning in truth and has led you to readiness to | learn the art of thought. |
T1:2.5 | continues here as well. The difference is that you are now ready to | learn a new means of response to this unlearning and learning. That |
T1:2.7 | on having the discipline required to train your mind to focus and to | learn, or shamed yourself when you were unable to do so. To those |
T1:2.7 | and thus further entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you could | learn the truth of who you are through these same means was the |
T1:4.3 | in other words, a way of thinking, the new way that we are going to | learn together. They are the state of giving and receiving as one. |
T1:4.20 | But you must give up your penchant for interpretation before you can | learn to respond. I realize that this will concern you while you |
T1:4.20 | is for you to begin to practice the art of thought and thus begin to | learn the difference. |
T1:4.21 | As was already stated, the first opportunities for you to | learn the art of thought will be provided through what we have called |
T1:4.23 | of the mode by which the art of thought teaches and helps you | learn. It is not through study, effort, or reinterpretation but |
T1:7.4 | they were and no matter how much they spoke the truth will be to not | learn the new. |
T1:10.12 | knowing cannot come to you in peace? Why would you believe you can | learn from the turmoil of extremes what you cannot learn in peace |
T1:10.12 | believe you can learn from the turmoil of extremes what you cannot | learn in peace eternal? |
T2:3.7 | create beautiful music already exists within you, you do not have to | learn what beautiful music is, only how to express it. If you see |
T2:3.7 | only how to express it. If you see beauty within, you do not have to | learn what beauty is, only how to express it. Expression and creation |
T2:4.6 | my dear brothers and sisters, and this is what it is time for you to | learn. |
T2:6.9 | with what you made. This is what is happening as you unlearn and | learn in unison. You are creating the state of unity as a new reality |
T2:7.19 | Self joined in unity at the place of your heart. From this place you | learn to discriminate, to separate the false from the true, for your |
T2:10.2 | self as teacher has now been replaced with the belief that you only | learn in unity. |
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 |
T2:10.12 | ego, or in other words, as long as you would continue to attempt to | learn in the same way that you have previously learned, you will not |
T2:10.12 | learn in the same way that you have previously learned, you will not | learn because the “you” that will be involved in the learning process |
T2:10.13 | wholeheartedness. You are in a state in which you are able to | learn. I am here to show you the way to the Christ in you. I began my |
T2:10.13 | return of wholeheartedness, the state of union in which all that you | learn is shared, first by mind and heart, and then in unity with your |
T2:10.16 | put behind you or chosen for specific outcomes. While many love to | learn for the sake of learning alone, still they would be loath to |
T2:12.7 | Calling is not only something you receive but something you must | learn to give. As you have come to see calling as a gift and a |
T3:4.1 | opposite. This Course has stated time and time again that you cannot | learn on your own and that resigning as your own teacher is the only |
T3:4.1 | your own and that resigning as your own teacher is the only way to | learn a new curriculum. This Course will not call you to effort of |
T3:5.5 | have already tried to do. These lessons you have already tried to | learn. This Course has come so that these many things that you have |
T3:5.5 | not be repeated, just as the crucifixion came to end the need to | learn through suffering and death. |
T3:9.3 | you are in a place so foreign that you must immediately begin to | learn again, starting with the smallest building blocks of knowledge, |
T3:10.3 | Although many a child has been blamed for his or her failure to | learn, blame of yourself is as uncalled for as is blaming a child for |
T3:10.6 | and realize that all lessons are gifts. What you have struggled to | learn in the past you have struggled with only because you did not |
T3:10.11 | they are not. You are no longer called to a time of uncertainty to | learn through contrast the lessons of certainty. Realize that this is |
T3:10.12 | the way of living in the House of Truth. You will not need to | learn a foreign language to dwell in this new house, but you will |
T3:10.12 | a foreign language to dwell in this new house, but you will need to | learn what will at first seem to you a foreign thought system. This |
T3:10.15 | people will gravitate toward beautiful music. Many will be eager to | learn what you have remembered because they will realize that the |
T3:11.15 | of varying degrees of awareness. As the old continues to help you to | learn lessons of the new you will be seeing how the lessons of the |
T3:13.4 | and leaving illusion behind. The new thought system is simple to | learn. What is of love is truth. What is of fear is illusion. The |
T3:15.5 | an act and that nothing has really changed. A student who failed to | learn the prior year, while eager and confident in being able to |
T3:15.11 | system of the truth. As we have said before, it is impossible to | learn the new with the thought system of the old. It is impossible to |
T3:15.11 | the new with the thought system of the old. It is impossible to | learn the truth through the same methods that have been used in the |
T3:15.11 | truth through the same methods that have been used in the past to | learn illusion. This Course teaches that love cannot be learned. I |
T3:15.11 | system. Thus, truth, like love, is not something that you can | learn. The Good News is that you have no need to learn the truth. The |
T3:15.11 | that you can learn. The Good News is that you have no need to | learn the truth. The truth exists within you and you are now aware of |
T3:15.13 | you to your Self. Despite whatever method you feel you used to | learn what you have learned, what this Course did was bypass the way |
T3:15.13 | the way of learning of the ego and call upon the Christ in you to | learn anew. That learning put an end to the old. Living what you have |
T3:17.5 | from the self. While it was important to the desired experience to | learn the lessons of what was observable within the physical realm, |
T3:17.5 | of your experience in physical form. Since your true Self could not | learn the untrue, a new self, which we have called the ego-self, was |
T3:17.5 | we have called the ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot | learn the true, your true Self had to be appealed to for this |
T3:17.8 | Without this means of communication with the ego-self the ability to | learn the truth could not have returned to you. The “time” of the |
T3:18.1 | rightly then, how those who have not learned by the Holy Spirit will | learn. They will now learn through observation. |
T3:18.1 | who have not learned by the Holy Spirit will learn. They will now | learn through observation. |
T3:18.2 | worship and devotion. Minds that have been unwilling to accept or | learn an unobservable truth, will now accept and learn from |
T3:18.2 | to accept or learn an unobservable truth, will now accept and | learn from observable truth. This is why you must become that |
T3:18.9 | instructed by the thought system of the truth. Thus your eyes will | learn to observe only the truth, even unto seeing what before but |
T3:20.4 | to reveal to you your fears concerning the miracle so that you would | learn from them. The second was to assure you that the miracle is the |
T3:22.1 | to the life you currently live. While you may be happy to | learn that you are not called to evangelize or even to a leadership |
T4:1.7 | of their chosenness or opportunity, they might easily choose not to | learn. The nature of life, however, is one of learning, and if they |
T4:1.7 | The nature of life, however, is one of learning, and if they do not | learn what is taught in school, they will, by default, learn what is |
T4:1.7 | they do not learn what is taught in school, they will, by default, | learn what is not taught in school. If you can consider this example |
T4:1.8 | seen amid many school systems in the current time, the choice to not | learn what is taught in school, when taken up by many, becomes a |
T4:1.8 | is always made. A choice to accept or reject, say yes or say no, to | learn this or to learn that, to learn now or to learn later. |
T4:1.8 | A choice to accept or reject, say yes or say no, to learn this or to | learn that, to learn now or to learn later. |
T4:1.8 | or reject, say yes or say no, to learn this or to learn that, to | learn now or to learn later. |
T4:1.8 | yes or say no, to learn this or to learn that, to learn now or to | learn later. |
T4:1.10 | have rebelled and will rebel against it. Those who do not choose to | learn from the curriculum, will, like school children, learn through |
T4:1.10 | not choose to learn from the curriculum, will, like school children, | learn through what is not of the curriculum because they have chosen |
T4:1.10 | is being spoken of here. But all means are for one end. All will | learn the same content, for all are chosen; and all learning, no |
T4:1.21 | state of consciousness and that you have given your willingness to | learn in a new way. The new way is here. If you are now to learn |
T4:1.21 | to learn in a new way. The new way is here. If you are now to | learn directly, you are also now to share directly. This is the way |
T4:1.24 | All across the world, people of the world have been demanding to | learn directly, through experience, and saying “no more” to the |
T4:1.24 | in your children and they are not only ready, but also demanding to | learn through observation and direct communication or experience. |
T4:2.25 | As you allow awareness of this relationship to grow in you, you will | learn the lessons that are being spoken of within this Treatise. |
T4:5.2 | of your time here as that of being apprentice musicians. You must | learn or relearn what you have forgotten so that you can once again |
T4:5.12 | consciousness, to end the time of the intermediary and to begin to | learn directly, you are given the same opportunity that was formerly |
T4:7.7 | in the past, and in the future, to bring you the lessons you would | learn in order to return you to your Self and the unity of |
T4:7.8 | remind you that no choice is wrong. Some will choose to continue to | learn through the full variety of the human experience even after it |
T4:8.7 | you experience in dreams, can you not see that you would have to | learn to breathe, to speak, to walk, much as a baby learns to do |
T4:8.10 | do with a child who is too impatient, too bright, too eager, to | learn slowly and mature gracefully? Do you withdraw your love? Never. |
T4:8.16 | the ego’s answer to being a learning being—choosing something to | learn that it could master. Yet all that this was, was a desire to be |
T4:8.16 | desire consistent with your true nature and your purpose here. To | learn everything there is to know about even one subject, and to call |
T4:9.7 | grateful to yourself that you have had the courage to listen and to | learn and to study what these forerunners of the new, these prophets |
T4:9.7 | forerunners of the new, these prophets of the new have called you to | learn. Be appreciative of every tool that has advanced your progress. |
T4:10.4 | your relationships as teachers. It is here that you can begin to | learn to let go of learning because it is here that learning has been |
T4:10.14 | This will not happen through learning but through sharing. You can | learn to change the world, but not how to create a new world. Does |
T4:10.14 | but not how to create a new world. Does this not make sense? You can | learn about who you were and who others were, but you cannot learn |
T4:10.14 | You can learn about who you were and who others were, but you cannot | learn anymore who you are or who those are who have joined you in |
T4:10.14 | to creating who you are anew in unity and relationship. You can | learn from the past but not from the future. When you build upon what |
T4:10.14 | the past but not from the future. When you build upon what you can | learn you build upon the past and create not the future but an |
T4:12.3 | of the new already in existence. They are beginning to see that they | learn as one. They are beginning to see that their questions are the |
T4:12.14 | not bring you to this state and that you would continue to need to | learn, and to perhaps suffer from, the conditions of learning! |
T4:12.23 | In other words, you, as a being of singular consciousness, could | learn the thought patterns of a singular consciousness because it was |
T4:12.26 | a foreign land but returned to your home of origin. What you cannot | learn you can remember. What you cannot learn will simply be known |
T4:12.26 | of origin. What you cannot learn you can remember. What you cannot | learn will simply be known through sharing. |
D:1.4 | want to figure out what to do, what comes next, what you need to | learn, how to better “prepare” for what is ahead. |
D:1.18 | So what is it that we will now do? If I do not teach, and you do not | learn, what is our continuing means for completing this |
D:1.21 | allowing and accepting the state of unity even though you could not | learn how to do so. This has been the difficulty with every |
D:1.22 | needed. You have now come upon a curriculum that is impossible to | learn. No teacher is available for none is needed. And yet many of |
D:2.5 | to begin to live that new identity. To continue to feel a need to | learn rather than realizing that the time of learning has come to an |
D:2.7 | This is not a judgment but simply the truth. To | learn the truth and not accept it is different from learning what is |
D:2.7 | it is different from learning what is necessary for a career. To | learn the truth and not accept the truth is insane. To learn the |
D:2.7 | a career. To learn the truth and not accept the truth is insane. To | learn the truth and not accept the completion of your learning is |
D:2.8 | If you do not realize that you have learned all that you need to | learn, you will retain the consciousness of the separated self rather |
D:2.19 | or manage the world without. These systems were attempts to | learn the nature of who you are through external means—the means of |
D:2.19 | system based upon faulty judgment. This system was meant to help you | learn to deal fairly with a hostile environment and then to develop a |
D:2.20 | seeming difficulty with this new beginning stems from your desire to | learn anew. You would say, “If the justice system doesn’t work, let’s |
D:2.20 | work, teach me a new way.” You would say, “I will work hard to | learn and to implement the new if you will just tell me what that new |
D:3.13 | full awareness of who you are is different than helping you to | learn. As was said before, you know what you need to know. What we |
D:3.21 | and that many of you will feel already as if you are being asked to | learn again and not only that, but as if I have presented you with a |
D:3.21 | that, but as if I have presented you with a concept difficult to | learn. What you need remember now is that your separated self already |
D:5.16 | the answer to the question of “What is next?” If there is nothing to | learn, if coursework is behind you and accomplishment is complete, |
D:5.17 | now is your confusion concerning what is. This is crucial as you | learn to accept what is and to deny what is not. While the question |
D:6.11 | this, then that” world because it was the easiest way in which to | learn. It was the easiest way in which to learn because it seemed to |
D:6.11 | easiest way in which to learn. It was the easiest way in which to | learn because it seemed to provide proof. Yet if science teaches |
D:6.25 | The ego, however, narrowed your ideas of what the body was here to | learn to ideas of survival. You thus learned to survive rather than |
D:7.2 | You were told within this Course that what you | learn in unity is shared. This language was used because you were |

D:8.8 | Between the Course and the Treatises, all of what you needed to | learn was put forth. What we are now doing is discussing what was |

D:Day3.25 | you do not have enough, that you will only have what you can earn or | learn, that only through effort will you gain, and that with your |
D:Day3.26 | these things. They were learned, to the degree that you could | learn them within the teachings of A Course of Love. But beyond |
D:Day3.29 | to demonstrate, when it is actually the easiest. You think you could | learn what is for you the most difficult type of learning, be it |
D:Day3.29 | be it philosophy, math, or foreign languages, before you could | learn how to make money, or in other words, to have abundance. You |
D:Day3.45 | no choice but to continue to struggle and strive, to earn and to | learn, to, in short, carry on in the world as you always have. |
D:Day3.59 | striving except money. You cannot accept that you no longer have to | learn and accept the condition of learning that is want. |
D:Day3.61 | in relationship with all that flows from unity. This you cannot | learn but you can practice. Thus your practice begins. |
D:Day4.8 | Even after the onset of language, children continue to | learn without thinking. Does this not sound odd, foreign to you? And |

D:Day5.18 | You want relief and an end to effort, not another lesson to | learn that you will be told is not a lesson. Not another cause for |
D:Day5.23 | discussed earlier. While many will heal, all attempts to teach or | learn “how to” heal must be thwarted, for if not, the pattern of |

D:Day8.27 | All feelings of non-acceptance lead to a feeling of needing to | learn “how to” reach acceptance of that which you do not like, or |

D:Day21.2 | pattern of learning you have been so familiar with, for in order to | learn, the source of wisdom, even though you may have seen it as |
D:Day25.2 | will fight back. If there is nothing new to record, nothing new to | learn, no new divine inspiration, a part of your mind will attempt to |

T1:1.4 | and the ability to reproduce or recall both what has been | learned and what has been previously experienced. This reproducing |
T1:1.4 | provides that truth rather than illusion can now be experienced and | learned from. It is in the present-moment experience that you will |
T1:1.5 | from the truth. This act will require no effort for what you have | learned in this Course has prepared you for this. As each situation |
T1:1.5 | is a simple act of recognizing meaning. All that you believe you | learned from illusion will have no meaning to you now and will allow |
T1:1.5 | to give up any remnants of false learning you acquired. All that you | learned in error from identifying love incorrectly will be relearned |

T1:5.13 | to replace the old with the new. While this will at first be a | learned activity, and as such have its moments of seeming difficulty, |

T1:9.13 | What has caused the ego to become more apparent to you as you have | learned this Course? Has it not seemed to lie dormant for periods of |
T1:10.6 | these experiences to alert you to the divine presence. Once you have | learned to read you do not return to learning to read over and over |
T1:10.12 | asked to leave behind is the need for such lessons. If you have | learned the curriculum, what further lessons are needed? What quiet |
T2:1.4 | now unnecessary. You may well be feeling a sense of relief in having | learned that who you are right now is a being of perfection, and you |
T2:1.4 | place to dwell in for a time. You may find that despite having | learned much about the need to leave judgment behind, you judge your |
T2:1.6 | place in the sense that you have imagined it. Even rest, once truly | learned, is simply rest. It is not a resting place, a place to stop |
T2:1.6 | not a point at which you arrive, never to depart. Rest, when truly | learned, is a state of being in which struggle has ceased and peace |
T2:1.8 | that you do not yet fully recognize is that of unity. As you have | learned much of unity within the context of this Course, unity, like |
T2:4.6 | cease to struggle or resist. The ability to let go of struggle is a | learned ability for the swimmer and is a learned ability for you now |
T2:4.6 | to let go of struggle is a learned ability for the swimmer and is a | learned ability for you now as you journey back to your real Self. It |
T2:10.12 | to attempt to learn in the same way that you have previously | learned, you will not learn because the “you” that will be involved |
T2:11.3 | battle with the ego has become the preoccupation of many gifted and | learned people. This is the classic battle revealed in all myths and |
T2:11.8 | remembering, will continue to be with you, in the way that all | learned behaviors and ideas are with you, until it is totally |
T2:11.17 | have said that the ego will remain with you as the identity you have | learned since birth until you replace it with new learning. While you |
T2:11.17 | since birth until you replace it with new learning. While you have | learned much here, you may be thinking that your ego is still very |
T3:1.11 | be. The personal self of the past was a self of roles, each one as | learned as that which an actor might portray. You saw nothing more |
T3:6.4 | While many of you who have read this far and | learned this much may not be those whose bitterness is mighty and |
T3:6.4 | idea of your abandonment here. Since the ego is a chosen self and a | learned self, there has always been just enough room within the ego’s |
T3:9.2 | the ego’s ideas of separation once did. Yet, as these ideas are not | learned ideas, they will not take time, as did the ego’s ideas, to |
T3:9.3 | house of illusion were contained within it and held together by the | learned ideas of the ego thought system. Now you must imagine |
T3:10.2 | within your daily life, I ask you to forget as much of what you have | learned as you are able. |
T3:10.3 | is as uncalled for as is blaming a child for lessons yet to be | learned. |
T3:10.10 | Uncertainty, like all the rest of the ego’s thought system, was | learned. Your true Self has no cause for uncertainty. Thus you are |
T3:10.11 | contrast the lessons of certainty. Realize that this is how you have | learned in the past and that all that is from the past is what you |
T3:10.11 | Uncertainty will not now come to teach you lessons you have already | learned but will only visit you as an echo from the past. It is a |
T3:10.13 | Think of this, for a moment as you would a | learned language. If you learned Spanish as a child and then learned |
T3:10.13 | Think of this, for a moment as you would a learned language. If you | learned Spanish as a child and then learned and spoke English for |
T3:10.13 | would a learned language. If you learned Spanish as a child and then | learned and spoke English for many years, you might believe your |
T3:10.14 | What we are doing now is much like translating the | learned thought system of the ego into the thought system of the |
T3:14.2 | had passed and see the truth, realizing that a lesson had been | learned and becoming aware that for a while you but flirted with |
T3:15.11 | the past to learn illusion. This Course teaches that love cannot be | learned. I have said here that love, peace, and truth are |
T3:15.13 | are simply concerned with assisting you to live what you have | learned. Learning was needed in order to return you to your Self. |
T3:15.13 | Despite whatever method you feel you used to learn what you have | learned, what this Course did was bypass the way of learning of the |
T3:15.13 | anew. That learning put an end to the old. Living what you have | learned will usher in the new. |
T3:17.5 | you now exist. It may seem ridiculous to say that the untrue can be | learned, but this is exactly what has been learned during the time of |
T3:17.5 | that the untrue can be learned, but this is exactly what has been | learned during the time of your experience in physical form. Since |
T3:18.1 | You may wonder rightly then, how those who have not | learned by the Holy Spirit will learn. They will now learn through |
T3:19.8 | arrive due to the reason of some affliction, may be seen as lessons | learned from suffering or affliction; but this is no more the case |
T3:21.24 | Do not make any false plans that give your power to others more | learned of this Course than you to be the savior only you can be. Do |
T3:22.1 | Treatises is to answer the question of what to do with what you have | learned, chances are that this is still the primary question in your |
T3:22.2 | this Course to be among the easiest of ways to share what you have | learned. You will almost certainly feel eagerness to share it and joy |
T4:1.20 | did occur and has continued to occur even unto this time. You have | learned much of the nature of the truth by seeing what you have |
T4:1.21 | It is the truth that you have now | learned all that can be learned from this state of consciousness and |
T4:1.21 | It is the truth that you have now learned all that can be | learned from this state of consciousness and that you have given your |
T4:1.27 | means of this state of consciousness and to pass on what they | learned through indirect means. Fewer were able to achieve a state of |
T4:7.8 | no longer needs to attend school once the desired curriculum is | learned, except through their own choice. Again let me remind you |
T4:9.3 | where it is that all these great teachings are leading. All of these | learned works that speak the truth—from ancient times through |
T4:9.3 | speak the truth—from ancient times through current times—are | learned works that have been worthy of your study. These learned |
T4:9.3 | times—are learned works that have been worthy of your study. These | learned works are the precursors that have shown the way to creating |
T4:9.4 | But now the time is upon you to leave | learned works behind in favor of observation, vision and revelation. |
T4:9.8 | of the new, along with you, are called to step beyond what they have | learned to what can only be revealed. These are my beloved, along |
T4:10.3 | wondered what learning the illness has come to bring you. You have | learned anew from your past. Learned from your dreams. Learned from |
T4:10.3 | illness has come to bring you. You have learned anew from your past. | Learned from your dreams. Learned from art and music. In all of these |
T4:10.3 | you. You have learned anew from your past. Learned from your dreams. | Learned from art and music. In all of these things you have viewed |
T4:10.12 | Expression of the Self of love in form is not something that can be | learned. It is something that can only be lived. This is the time of |
T4:10.13 | not be willing to move out of the time of learning. Those who have | learned what this Course would teach but do not move beyond the state |
T4:12.11 | you will want to be vigilant of, dear brothers and sisters, is the | learned wisdom of the past. Let me give you an example that relates |
T4:12.12 | gathered who was questioning the state of contentment. She quoted a | learned priest and scholar who spoke of how he knew, as soon as he |
T4:12.12 | During the time of learning, this statement was consistent with | learned wisdom. During the new time of sharing, there is no “next |
T4:12.13 | Is this not a good example of the | learned wisdom that needs to be left behind? But what of the |
T4:12.16 | The state of rebellion was the effect of the cause of | learned wisdom. It became part of the nature of the human experience |
T4:12.17 | This is just a beginning point of your ability to see what | learned wisdom has wrought. This is a necessary end point of your |
T4:12.17 | of your experience here so that you do not continue to advance | learned wisdom. Learned wisdom will tell you to work hard. Learned |
T4:12.17 | here so that you do not continue to advance learned wisdom. | Learned wisdom will tell you to work hard. Learned wisdom will tell |
T4:12.17 | advance learned wisdom. Learned wisdom will tell you to work hard. | Learned wisdom will tell you that the strong survive, the mighty |
T4:12.17 | prevail, the weak shall perish. I attempted to dislodge much of this | learned wisdom during my time on Earth and man is still puzzling over |
T4:12.17 | The time for puzzlement is over. Pass on no more of the prevailing | learned wisdom. I told you once we would create a new language and |
T4:12.18 | in the new. Announce far and wide freedom from the old ideas, the | learned wisdom of old. What could be more invigorating, more |
T4:12.22 | consciousness, the consciousness of the embrace. It is not a | learned state, as was the singular consciousness of the human form. |
T4:12.22 | It is your innate consciousness, a consciousness far too vast to be | learned but one easily shared by all. |
T4:12.25 | unity. Realize that it is a truly new state, a state that cannot be | learned, a state the awareness of which can only be revealed to you |
T4:12.26 | akin to being stranded in a foreign land with none of the ways you | learned how to adapt in the past being of service to you. That is how |
D:1.16 | as your reality and acting from that truth. Once the truth has been | learned, the nature of untruth remains only as an acceptance of |
D:1.17 | can serve as reminders as you continue to become the Self you have | learned that you are. But further learning is not what will complete |
D:1.21 | These Dialogues begin with prayer to remind you of what you have | learned in unity, a learning that has been different from all |
D:1.21 | has sought to teach the truth. In order for the truth to be truly | learned, you first had to enter a state in which this learning could |
D:1.22 | teacher who will guide you through the application of what you have | learned. You dare not, as yet, to turn to your own heart, and trust |
D:1.27 | Thus we work now toward acceptance of what you have | learned in unity. We work towards your acceptance of sanity and your |
D:2.4 | Patterns are both | learned systems and systems of design. The pattern of learning was a |
D:2.8 | If you do not realize that you have | learned all that you need to learn, you will retain the consciousness |
D:2.13 | personal control have become particularly entrenched. Thus have you | learned ideas such as “when all else fails, plain old hard work will |
D:2.19 | hostile environment and then to develop a pattern based on what was | learned so that learning would not need to be endlessly repeated. Now |
D:2.22 | of the personal self of old, the separated self who depended on | learned wisdom for answers. Looking within is turning to the real |
D:3.6 | and contrast are synonymous. In the time of the Holy Spirit, you | learned through contrast. You learned from the contrast of good and |
D:3.6 | In the time of the Holy Spirit, you learned through contrast. You | learned from the contrast of good and evil, weak and strong, right |
D:3.6 | the contrast of good and evil, weak and strong, right and wrong. You | learned from the contrast of love and fear, sickness and health, life |
D:3.8 | Let’s talk of this now as an idea, rather than as something | learned, and as an idea for you to carry forward with you into the |
D:3.8 | carry forward. These are new ideas to you because you have recently | learned them and through the art of thought begun to integrate them |
D:3.9 | of the future to be created. These are the ideas that replace the | learned concepts we leave behind. |
D:3.21 | What you need remember now is that your separated self already | learned this concept of giving and receiving, and that for the |
D:4.11 | spoken of. Here I am quite confident that you have either seen and | learned enough during your time as a learning being that you accept |
D:4.15 | is one such system. As a learning being, you accepted that you | learned through contrast, knowing that contrast was provided for your |
D:4.18 | recreating the patterns that served the time of learning. What was | learned in the instant in which you came to know your Self is all |
D:5.10 | While you have | learned to take judgment from your seeing, this must be reemphasized |
D:6.15 | to be revealed. Your certainty about what is is a false certainty, a | learned certainty based on the fear that caused you to order the |
D:6.25 | of what the body was here to learn to ideas of survival. You thus | learned to survive rather than to live. You increased the life span |
D:7.4 | is needed in time to aid your total acceptance of what you have | learned. In order to experience the new you must answer the call to |
D:7.26 | of what you are. In observing both yourself and others, you have | learned to view your body in the field of time. This will be helpful |
D:8.6 | revealed. Gifts that need only be received and responded to. Not | learned. |
D:8.8 | what was taught from the realm of wholeheartedness. What was | learned was only able to be learned because you chose to become the |
D:8.8 | the realm of wholeheartedness. What was learned was only able to be | learned because you chose to become the wholehearted. You chose to |
D:8.9 | art of thought will become your new means of thinking. What has been | learned will become an ability to think wholeheartedly, or with mind |
D:8.12 | step outside of the known reality of your conscious awareness, the | learned reality of your separate consciousness, and into the realm of |
D:9.4 | the place of fulfillment you have sought. Even now, when you have | learned all that you are in need of learning, the pattern, even of |
D:9.10 | it must be realized again and yet again, that the new cannot be | learned. In other words, it must be realized that you cannot come to |
D:11.5 | you have known—has been enhanced and amplified by what you have | learned. You know you have been called and that a contribution has |
D:13.4 | within the state of unity will still seem, at times, to need to be | learned anew in daily living. This is knowing that will often come in |
D:13.5 | to you will be given in a state of wholeness. You have previously | learned of everything in parts and details and particulars. While you |
D:15.23 | Here is where you work in relationship to maintain what you have | learned, for you know that when you return to the level ground from |
D:16.6 | This is because love remains in eternal wholeness. Love cannot be | learned, and so has stood apart from the time of learning. Being |
D:16.6 | and so has stood apart from the time of learning. Being could be | learned here, because it was not yet whole. Being is synonymous with |

D:Day3.11 | base idea behind the issue of money or abundance: the way you have | learned. The mind would tell you that nothing is “given,” and that |

D:Day3.24 | the ego is no longer with you, the pattern remains because what you | learned, and the way in which you learned it, remains. |

D:Day3.25 | Remember, you have | learned that nothing is “given,” for what use would you have of |

D:Day4.31 | your breathing and how your concentration upon it affects it. Even | learned skills react to this type of concentration. A pianist who |
D:Day5.19 | effort to leave effort behind implies. Remember that union cannot be | learned, for if it could be, the time of learning would be |
D:Day6.23 | by hands-on activities, by doing what one has previously only | learned. |
D:Day10.7 | you were about to do. You may have trusted the intuition and then | learned that had you done what you planned to do, an accident or some |

D:Day15.9 | In practicing observation without judgment, you | learned to be neutral observers. Being neutral observers allowed |

D:Day17.4 | mind and more and more about coming to know what others had already | learned and were capable of teaching, learning began to fail the |
D:Day17.12 | “time” of fulfillment of the way of Jesus. What could be taught and | learned has been taught and learned. Now it is time to move beyond |
D:Day17.12 | way of Jesus. What could be taught and learned has been taught and | learned. Now it is time to move beyond what could be taught and |

D:Day35.9 | Ideas are neither | learned nor accomplished. They simply are. They thus take no time to |
D:Day39.41 | my beloved, for you do not have to learn all that the Christ in you | learned. This is why we have had to enter the time of non-learning— |
A.4 | While you continue to put effort into learning what cannot be | learned, as you continue to see yourself as a student seeking to |

C:18.22 | reaction to the experience can then be learned from, and because the | learner can choose both. It is not, however, the perfect relationship |
C:32.1 | Let us first consider the roles of teacher and | learner. A teacher is first and foremost anything that aids your |
C:32.3 | this Course with love given and love received in truth. You are the | learner here until you realize that you are Love. You then become the |
T2:10.1 | than to take it. This is why you are called to be a teacher and a | learner both. This is how the exchange of giving and receiving as one |
T2:10.10 | You forget constantly that the Christ in you is the | learner here. What need is there for a computer brain or for the ego |
T2:10.10 | is there for a computer brain or for the ego to be teacher when the | learner in you is the all-powerful? The learner in you is the |
T2:10.10 | ego to be teacher when the learner in you is the all-powerful? The | learner in you is the unifying force of the universe. The learning |
T4:10.1 | gave up this role and became comfortable in the true role of | learner. You are now asked to be willing to give up the role of |
T4:10.1 | of learner. You are now asked to be willing to give up the role of | learner and to believe that you will become comfortable and more in |
T4:10.3 | and music. In all of these things you have viewed yourself as the | learner. You may not have studied your problems, illness, your past, |
T4:11.5 | so, I bid you to read these words in a new way. You are no longer a | learner here and what I reveal to you must be regarded as the equal |
D:2.11 | the outcome has occurred. For example, study habits that allowed the | learner to achieve a successful grade or outcome in one instance |
D:4.16 | had become an externalized self took you, the true Self and the true | learner, out of the learning loop. Obviously these systems, built as |
D:9.10 | with our aims here. Learning always has as its goal leading the | learner beyond learning. With “A Treatise on the New” we established |
D:Day17.4 | in the beginning pages of the Course that the Christ in you was the | learner. The Christ in you is what was created to inspire movement |
D:Day21.6 | pattern of learning had as its outcome the sameness of teacher and | learner—the transfer of knowledge that would eventually make |
D:Day21.6 | —the transfer of knowledge that would eventually make teacher and | learner equal. Means and end have always been the same. |
D:Day21.7 | Now, however, there is no longer an “eventually.” Teacher and | learner are equal and thus neither are needed any longer. The |

C:P.25 | way to overcome the dualism that threatens even the most astute of | learners is through the Christ in you, through the One who knows what |

C:I.9 | how to escape the reality of the mind with the mind’s pattern of | learning or of logic. You cannot live in a new and fresh world and |
C:P.3 | not need to, then who is this Course and all other such courses for? | Learning our true identity, the identity of the Self that is capable |
C:P.3 | our true identity, the identity of the Self that is capable of | learning, is something everyone must do. Can the ego learn this? |
C:P.4 | spirit and part ego, assuming there would be such a state in which | learning could take place would be meaningless. |
C:P.6 | What is it in you that is capable of | learning? What is it in you that recognizes that ego is not what you |
C:P.7 | differs from spirit. The Christ in you is that which is capable of | learning in human form what it means to be a child of God. The Christ |
C:P.8 | Christ is God’s extension of who He is. In order to end the need for | learning, you must know who you are and what this means. Where the |
C:P.24 | still and ever present. But the weakening done your ego by whatever | learning you have done has left room for strength, a strength that |
C:P.29 | studied much and learned the lessons of the Course well, leave their | learning and their teaching sit idly by while they earn their living |
C:P.43 | You were your Self before you began your | learning, and the ego cannot take your Self from you but only can |
C:P.44 | approach, an approach that seems at first to leave behind abstract | learning and the complex mechanisms of the mind that so betray you. |
C:P.44 | away from intellect, the pride of the ego, and approach this final | learning through the realm of the heart. This is why, to end |
C:1.5 | Yet when you apply your thought to | learning you learn. Let this encourage you. This is an ability we can |
C:1.8 | consider that you could still learn from your mistakes and find the | learning in the end to be the same, and this you surely might do from |
C:1.9 | own at the beginning, before she knows the way. There is no shame in | learning. No shame in following the course another has put forth. |
C:1.9 | exactly the same way as another. This is true with the teaching and | learning of information, and true with the teaching and learning of |
C:1.9 | teaching and learning of information, and true with the teaching and | learning of the truth as well. The only way that you can fail to |
C:1.10 | anything on your own. Your determination to do so only blocks your | learning. It is only through union with me that you learn because it |
C:1.11 | A teacher always has a role in the | learning of the student. This does not diminish the student’s |
C:1.13 | what you can do on your own, only then will your autonomy and your | learning be complete, for this is all your learning has been for. The |
C:1.13 | your autonomy and your learning be complete, for this is all your | learning has been for. The goal of this world is for you to stand on |
C:2.9 | the inability of your true Self to forget that gives you hope of | learning to recognize love, and, with that recognition, of ending the |
C:2.16 | involving the other. You believe that to know with your mind is a | learning process that stands apart from all else that you are. Thus |
C:2.18 | Yet your mind too rejoiced in the | learning of all the teachings that have brought you here, |
C:2.19 | even unto the greater peace and contentment offered by your | learning. It can and does see itself as better and stronger and more |
C:2.21 | still with you regardless of your perception of the outcome of your | learning. Your perception of an outcome within your control is all |
C:3.10 | use the mind to deal in concepts, you have been unable to let new | learning have its effect. This is because you believe your mind is in |
C:3.11 | What has this meant for | learning that is not of this world? It means that you filter it |
C:3.11 | a certain way certain things will happen as a result. Like a child | learning not to touch a stove because it is hot and a burn will |
C:3.11 | not to touch a stove because it is hot and a burn will result, or | learning that a warm blanket is comforting, you subject it to a |
C:3.12 | another, and it is only in the study of the two that you believe | learning takes place. |
C:3.13 | of your concepts of the heart, concepts much more in line with | learning that is not of this world. |
C:3.14 | understand. As you read, be aware your heart, for this is where this | learning enters and will stay. Your heart is now your eyes and ears. |
C:3.15 | What this will mean to you goes far beyond the | learning of this Course. One such concept, given up and not replaced, |
C:3.16 | heart. We give up trying. We simply learn in a new way and in our | learning realize that our light shines from within our heart, our |
C:3.16 | the Christ in us abides and here we concentrate our energies and our | learning, soon to learn that what we would know cannot be computed in |
C:4.8 | Yearning, | learning, seeking, acquiring, the need to own, the need to keep, the |
C:6.1 | them. Forgive yourself. Forgive God. Then you will be ready to begin | learning just how different it really is to live in the reality of |
C:6.6 | been created. This simple realization will start you on the path to | learning what your heart would have you learn. |
C:7.3 | and names one thing this and one thing that—is the basis of all | learning in your world. It is based on contrast and opposites and on |
C:8.3 | level, though in truth, no levels separate union at all. As a | learning being, the idea of levels is helpful to you and will aid you |
C:8.3 | aid you in seeing that you progress from one step, or one level of | learning, to another. This is more a process of remembering than |
C:8.3 | of learning, to another. This is more a process of remembering than | learning, and this you will understand as memory begins to return to |
C:8.5 | at emotions, a way that will allow them to assist you in your | learning rather than block you from it. |
C:9.50 | Before you can begin, however, we must expand on the lessons you are | learning by observing your own self. Now we seek to uncover the |
C:10.11 | your attempt to do miracles on your own. In the early stages of your | learning, you will be tempted to play a game of make believe. You |
C:10.16 | To give up the body entirely is a choice you need not make. As your | learning advances you will see that this is possible, but there may |
C:10.23 | or the shadow form on the ground as you walk to and fro, you will be | learning the only separation that can be useful to you. |
C:11.1 | would indeed be required to learn things on your own, for all true | learning must come from your Source. |
C:11.3 | know more than you now know, and why you begin each new course of | learning by feeling as if you have less. You then begin your attempts |
C:11.3 | have less than anyone else. Some of you may be confident in your | learning skills and rush in to conquer this new territory as you have |
C:11.3 | in tow, and when they have turned the last page be done with | learning what this book would have to teach and rush on to the next. |
C:11.4 | failure are detrimental here. To feel you have achieved success in | learning what love is all about is as ridiculous as feeling as if you |
C:11.5 | the barriers that keep you from realizing what love is. That is the | learning goal of this Course—your awareness of what love is—and |
C:15.8 | —one of great necessity to overcome if you are to reach the | learning goal this Course has set. Loyalty stems from faith, and |
C:15.9 | act of treachery. To give your allegiance to your Father and to the | learning goals this Course has set is but an act of treason upon the |
C:17.17 | for it is beyond concepts. But now we begin to integrate your | learning as we move to wholeness. The first move toward wholeness is |
C:18.6 | keeps you separate, then you can begin to see it as what it is, a | learning device given you by a loving creator. Before the idea of |
C:18.6 | loving creator. Before the idea of separation, there was no need for | learning. But a loving creator creates not that which can have a need |
C:18.6 | that which can have a need go unfulfilled. As soon as the need for | learning arose, the perfect means to fulfill that need was |
C:18.7 | because there was no external world to be perceived. A | learning device, when not perceived as such, holds not much hope of |
C:18.9 | Learning from unity requires an integrated mind and heart, or | |
C:18.9 | mind and heart, or wholeheartedness. A half-hearted approach to this | learning will not work, nor will the attention of a split mind. It |
C:18.9 | it was that you were asking for, or the extent of involvement this | learning would require. In order to learn what the idea of separation |
C:18.11 | for what you learn in unity is shared. Because you are currently | learning from separation, however, each must experience unity |
C:18.12 | temporarily collapsing time. Time is actually a measurement of | learning, or the “time” it takes for learning to pass from one level |
C:18.12 | is actually a measurement of learning, or the “time” it takes for | learning to pass from one level to another through experience, for |
C:18.12 | to pass from one level to another through experience, for here | learning is experienced in time. |
C:18.13 | In order for your experience base to change from that of | learning in separation to that of learning in unity, learning from |
C:18.13 | base to change from that of learning in separation to that of | learning in unity, learning from what unity can teach you must be |
C:18.13 | from that of learning in separation to that of learning in unity, | learning from what unity can teach you must be birthed as an idea. To |
C:18.13 | birth to it. You thus must each experience the birth of the idea of | learning from unity in order for it to come from within and leave not |
C:18.22 | we do so, we must clarify further the function of the body as a | learning device. Your body seems to experience both pleasure and |
C:18.22 | Your body seems to experience both pleasure and pain, yet as a | learning device, it is neutral. It does not experience, but only |
C:18.22 | you and the body is the perfect relationship for the purpose of | learning, since both the experience and the reaction to the |
C:18.22 | when you have misperceived the body as your home rather than as a | learning device. Because you have misperceived the body as your home, |
C:18.23 | Yet the body has no mercy to offer the separated self. It is only a | learning device. But you have not recognized this and have failed to |
C:18.24 | real Self that would dispel it. The Self you have taken out of the | learning loop is the Self of love. |
C:19.1 | There was no evil intent in the creation of the body as a | learning device, and as a learning device it was perfectly created. |
C:19.1 | intent in the creation of the body as a learning device, and as a | learning device it was perfectly created. The problem lies in what |
C:19.1 | as yourself did ideas of glorifying the body arise. To glorify a | learning device makes no sense. And yet in creating the perfect |
C:19.4 | glorify the separated self lies the world that was created for your | learning, and that so exists in truth. It is not the only world by |
C:19.15 | my experience. While many have learned much of others, this type of | learning is but a starting point, a gateway to experience. |
C:21.5 | language of your mind and heart. Your mind insists on thinking and | learning in a certain way, a way contrary to the language of your |
C:22.2 | We will be letting images serve as | learning devices. They will enhance our use of language so that our |
C:23.1 | is the great teacher. And your loving relationships the means of | learning love. |
C:23.7 | Let me remind you of a key | learning aid discussed some pages back: You would not be other than |
C:23.12 | your belief in form. This is consistent with our primary focus on | learning from the heart. The mind goes from the small to the large, |
C:23.24 | These | learning opportunities call for a period of engagement with life. |
C:23.26 | you will indeed feel tested and will try to take control of the | learning situation. Not taking control, however, is the key to |
C:23.27 | Attempting to exert control over | learning situations is a reflection of belief that you have nothing |
C:23.27 | to learn. An attitude of openness is required for unlearning and new | learning both. Control opposes openness. Mastery comes through the |
C:23.27 | openness. Mastery comes through the process of both unlearning and | learning anew. This is but another way of stating that which was |
C:23.27 | desire to remain your own teacher and/or to choose your teachers and | learning situations. Neither can occur if you would truly choose to |
C:23.28 | You recognize that your false beliefs were the result of faulty | learning. As unlearning is replaced by new learning, judgment falls |
C:23.28 | were the result of faulty learning. As unlearning is replaced by new | learning, judgment falls away as your innocence is established. Can a |
C:23.29 | What is the curriculum? How will you know when you have achieved a | learning objective? Yet how can you become a master of what another |
C:23.29 | only you can master. Only your own life experiences have led to the | learning you have accumulated and translated into beliefs. Only your |
C:24.1 | Where you learned to distrust, you will learn trust. And each | learning experience will be a learning experience because it will |
C:24.1 | you will learn trust. And each learning experience will be a | learning experience because it will touch your heart. It may be as |
C:24.4 | forerunner of compassion. The time of tenderness is thus the final | learning ground before accomplishment is complete. The learning that |
C:24.4 | the final learning ground before accomplishment is complete. The | learning that occurs during the time of tenderness is learning from |
C:24.4 | complete. The learning that occurs during the time of tenderness is | learning from love. No lessons learned without love touch your heart. |
C:24.4 | lessons are both unlearning and moving through unlearning to new | learning. These lessons must be accomplished in life and require an |
C:25.1 | to be included in what you do. Devotion is thus our first lesson in | learning how to be engaged in life during the time of tenderness. |
C:25.24 | Experience is necessary to complete the cycle of unlearning and | learning. |
C:27.12 | Because you do not understand does not mean that you are not | learning the truth. You do not understand because you think in terms |
C:28.6 | of dawn. It is the middle of the journey, a time of teaching and of | learning both. It is the time of planting and of harvest that comes |
C:29.2 | service into your lives. But now you shall. For you cannot bring the | learning you have done here into an engagement with life and not |
C:30.2 | is sought, the journey becomes but the means for getting there. All | learning is seen as preparation for the future, or for some eventual |
C:30.3 | Your | learning must take on a new focus. Be like the little children, and |
C:30.3 | Self. Be like the little children, and learn in order to claim your | learning for your Self. Learn who you are through each experience |
C:30.3 | for your Self. Learn who you are through each experience rather than | learning in order to find out who you are or what your contribution |
C:31.13 | to come to understanding with a split mind is impossible. Impossible | learning goals lead to depression. This is why we must learn anew |
C:31.19 | be no more. But in order to remember your Self, you need a means of | learning who you are. Everything that has ever happened in your life |
C:31.19 | Everything that has ever happened in your life has happened as a | learning device to help you remember who you are. Those things about |
C:31.19 | unlearned. While you hang on to them by keeping them hidden, no | learning occurs. |
C:31.22 | you truly are, and yet it is the way to learn the difference while | learning is still necessary. |
C:31.26 | as a part of you. What you have not yet learned from awaits your | learning—or in other words, awaits the transfer of your feelings |
C:31.37 | as you have realized that you are here to learn. Now, with a clear | learning goal in mind, these idealized relationships must be |
C:32.2 | Trinity always available in every situation, and for whichever | learning mode you are most comfortable. All learning modes, however, |
C:32.2 | and for whichever learning mode you are most comfortable. All | learning modes, however, will eventually return you to the Source, |
T1:1.2 | will attempt to give specific examples of what to look for as your | learning continues, or how to identify wholehearted responses from |
T1:1.3 | need of knowing has been provided within A Course of Love. That your | learning does not feel complete is not a failing of this Course or of |
T1:1.3 | complete is not a failing of this Course or of yourself. That your | learning does not feel complete is the result of forgetfulness, which |
T1:1.3 | of forgetfulness, which is the opposite of mindfulness. Your further | learning then is learning based on mindfulness or remembering. |
T1:1.3 | which is the opposite of mindfulness. Your further learning then is | learning based on mindfulness or remembering. |
T1:1.5 | prepared you for this. As each situation that re-enacts a previous | learning experience arises, you will, if you trust your heart, be |
T1:1.5 | to you now and will allow you to give up any remnants of false | learning you acquired. All that you learned in error from identifying |
T1:1.6 | in the mechanics of the mind was consistent with the theme and | learning goals of this Course. The mechanics of the mind can in truth |
T1:1.7 | to be restful enough for it to even contemplate union or the new | learning required in order to facilitate your return to union. Your |
T1:1.8 | impression that relying on feeling alone would complete your | learning would in actuality leave your learning incomplete. Without |
T1:1.8 | alone would complete your learning would in actuality leave your | learning incomplete. Without this “Treatise on the Art of Thought,” |
T1:1.9 | once in charge of all your thoughts. Since the ego is incapable of | learning the ego-mind had to be circumvented in order for true |
T1:1.9 | of learning the ego-mind had to be circumvented in order for true | learning to take place. This is what A Course of Love accomplished. |
T1:1.9 | to take place. This is what A Course of Love accomplished. This | learning was accomplished in you, making you The Accomplished. As The |
T1:2.5 | continues here. What was spoken of within A Course of Love as new | learning has begun and continues here as well. The difference is that |
T1:2.5 | now ready to learn a new means of response to this unlearning and | learning. That response is the art of thought. |
T1:2.7 | situation in the past was focus. You thus applied your thoughts to | learning subjects of a specific nature. Through this focus you |
T1:2.8 | It did not exist when you knew not of it and so your attempts at | learning have been valiant and are no cause for anxiety. But now this |
T1:2.9 | You have already succeeded in | learning in this new way once or you would not be here. This is your |
T1:3.1 | shaped your life. These opportunities are but the forerunners of new | learning. They are but opportunities to replace illusion with the |
T1:3.18 | would you know that disease was not meant to be to further someone’s | learning? If you were to ask to win the lottery, how could such |
T1:5.9 | you from this freedom is the seeming difficulty you experience in | learning this course of study and the reason, when you have freed |
T1:6.2 | How is this revelation to take place? It will begin by | learning the art of thought as the act of prayer. We have spoken |
T1:7.2 | includes the choice to suffer. This belief may accept suffering as a | learning device rather than a punishment, but it still, in its |
T1:7.2 | acceptance of a false notion, invites suffering. This belief accepts | learning through contrast, that evil is seen in relation to good, |
T1:7.4 | in such a way as your examples any longer. I have said a new way of | learning is needed and is here. To continue to rely on the ways of |
T1:7.5 | an ability to perceive differently, in order to make this new | learning possible. If you do not let what you have attained serve |
T1:7.5 | what you have attained serve you, you will not realize what this new | learning has been for. You may reach an ideal of human satisfaction |
T1:10.6 | These extremes of the human experience have been | learning devices. They have cracked open hearts and minds to the |
T1:10.6 | now be an observer and look upon them as your brothers and sisters | learning choice without choosing to return to learning in the same |
T1:10.6 | brothers and sisters learning choice without choosing to return to | learning in the same way again. You no longer need these experiences |
T1:10.6 | divine presence. Once you have learned to read you do not return to | learning to read over and over again even while you may continue to |
T1:10.9 | of profound joy or grief that also became an experience of profound | learning. You will think that you would not be who you are now |
T1:10.10 | what you have remembered to what was truly there. No moment of true | learning ever arrived without the Peace of God for without the Peace |
T1:10.10 | without the Peace of God for without the Peace of God no true | learning is possible. |
T1:10.11 | call peak experiences from experiences of extremes that served as | learning devices. Peak experiences often follow occasions of |
T1:10.13 | return to you now and you will see that peace is all you have sought | learning to attain. If you do not pause now and accept that it is |
T2:3.3 | Remember that it is the Christ in you that learns and raises | learning to the holiest of levels. It is the Christ in you that |
T2:3.4 | that learns may have been given little attention as you began your | learning, it cannot now be ignored. Now you have realized your |
T2:3.4 | your learning, it cannot now be ignored. Now you have realized your | learning. You have begun to see the changes that your learning is |
T2:3.4 | realized your learning. You have begun to see the changes that your | learning is capable of bringing to your life. You have felt the peace |
T2:3.4 | the embrace. You know that you are experiencing something real and | learning something that is of relevance even within the daily life |
T2:3.4 | the distinction between the ego-self that previously was the self of | learning and experience, and the Christ-Self that is now the Self of |
T2:3.4 | learning and experience, and the Christ-Self that is now the Self of | learning and experience. You must take on the mantle of your new |
T2:3.6 | If you still balk at the idea that the Christ could be in need of | learning, then your idea of the Christ is still based on an old way |
T2:3.6 | is still based on an old way of thinking, as are your ideas of | learning. |
T2:3.7 | Learning and accomplishment are not linear as you have perceived them | |
T2:4.3 | than as who you are, you have not integrated these two pieces of | learning. |
T2:4.4 | This is the stage of | learning that you are at and what this Treatise addresses. This |
T2:4.4 | act within the world as the new Self you have identified. Just like | learning how to swim, it is a new way of movement. Just as moving |
T2:4.6 | A first step then in | learning to recognize when you are acting upon notions of who you |
T2:4.17 | As the old goes, the new arrives. There is no time-lapse in this | learning and so it is a condition of miracle readiness. The old is |
T2:4.18 | Course of Love, time is but a measurement of the “time” it takes for | learning to occur. As this notion of time dissolves, the state of |
T2:5.2 | only for a specific type of call, you will miss many unlearning and | learning opportunities. Thus recognition of the different calls that |
T2:5.3 | to the already accomplished. Such a call signals an end to | learning from the lessons of the past and a beginning of learning |
T2:5.3 | an end to learning from the lessons of the past and a beginning of | learning from the new. This Course itself is such a call, an |
T2:5.5 | are often calls that come to you from within the teaching and | learning ground of relationships. You may be literally “called to |
T2:5.6 | that comes as an announcement is not. They represent the remnants of | learning from the past, the final breaking of old patterns. They may |
T2:5.7 | signs or demands will be calls that assist you in integrating this | learning and making it one with who you are. These lessons will bring |
T2:6.2 | you thus allow to govern your thinking. If time is but a measure of | learning, and if your learning is now at the stage at which it occurs |
T2:6.2 | your thinking. If time is but a measure of learning, and if your | learning is now at the stage at which it occurs in unison with |
T2:6.2 | this process and more quickly bring about the end of the pattern of | learning that you refer to as time. The end of the pattern of |
T2:6.2 | of learning that you refer to as time. The end of the pattern of | learning that you refer to as time is the beginning of the time of |
T2:6.7 | you that a chair is a chair and regard it as a fact. Through the | learning you have done since your birth, you have come to recognize a |
T2:7.17 | stated an opinion. While these modes of behavior, in themselves, are | learning aides that prepare you for acting with the certainty you |
T2:8.1 | In order for this | learning to come to completion, you must put into practice the belief |
T2:8.1 | relationships. While your love relationships will provide a rich | learning ground for you now, they must also now be separated from all |
T2:8.2 | one you come to know through relationship is your Self. This is the | learning ground on which you now stand. All that prevents you from |
T2:8.8 | Thus again is your | learning advanced by leaps and bounds formerly reserved for the |
T2:9.2 | all these tools, including needs, can ignite the combination of | learning and unlearning, the letting-go of one so that the other can |
T2:9.12 | As soon as the desire to hang on arises, both | learning and unlearning cease to occur. The desire to maintain a |
T2:9.18 | phase of coming to accept need and dependency is necessary only as a | learning ground of experience on which trust can grow. Once this |
T2:10.3 | today.” I want you now to keep this example in mind as we explore | learning in unity. |
T2:10.10 | The learner in you is the unifying force of the universe. The | learning you are in need of is the learning that will call who you |
T2:10.10 | force of the universe. The learning you are in need of is the | learning that will call who you are back to your united mind and |
T2:10.11 | Why, then, is this called | learning? Learning simply means to come to know. If what you know has |
T2:10.11 | Why, then, is this called learning? | Learning simply means to come to know. If what you know has been |
T2:10.11 | If what you know has been forgotten, you still are in need of the | learning that assists you in coming to know once again. |
T2:10.12 | you will not learn because the “you” that will be involved in the | learning process will not be the real you. |
T2:10.15 | it is hard for you to believe that the Christ in you is in need of | learning. Think a moment of why this should be so. Is there ever a |
T2:10.16 | state would make you rather listen to your ego as it prescribes | learning for certain circumstances that would be quickly put behind |
T2:10.16 | for specific outcomes. While many love to learn for the sake of | learning alone, still they would be loath to give up or let go the |
T2:10.16 | ability to choose their lessons. And still we are only talking about | learning as you have perceived of it rather than learning from life. |
T2:10.16 | only talking about learning as you have perceived of it rather than | learning from life. |
T2:10.17 | What difference does it make to your concepts of | learning when you think of life as your coursework? Would you be any |
T2:10.18 | you do not think of them as such you do not think of life as your | learning ground. You still think of lessons as being about specific |
T2:10.19 | choose a lesson plan, but to let life itself be your chosen way of | learning. |
T2:11.8 | and ideas are with you, until it is totally replaced by new | learning. Learning thus must complement your new beliefs, the |
T2:11.8 | ideas are with you, until it is totally replaced by new learning. | Learning thus must complement your new beliefs, the ultimate goal of |
T2:11.8 | thus must complement your new beliefs, the ultimate goal of this | learning being the end of the need for beliefs at all. |
T2:11.9 | This | learning, then, must be seen for what it is. It is the holiest of |
T2:11.9 | evidence of means and end being the same. Your devotion to this | learning must now be complete, your willingness total, your way of |
T2:11.9 | learning must now be complete, your willingness total, your way of | learning that of a mind and heart joined in wholeheartedness. |
T2:11.13 | So let us now, for the sake of continued | learning, speak of separation in a new way. Let us speak of |
T2:11.17 | identity you have learned since birth until you replace it with new | learning. While you have learned much here, you may be thinking that |
T2:11.17 | the very miracle you have been prepared for within this course of | learning. |
T2:12.2 | love. Your readiness for miracles has been achieved through the | learning you have accomplished. Miracles cannot be used, and so your |
T2:12.2 | learning you have accomplished. Miracles cannot be used, and so your | learning needed to include an ability to distinguish between service |
T2:12.6 | As with the | learning goal being set here of going beyond belief to simply |
T2:12.6 | goal being set here of going beyond belief to simply knowing, the | learning goal in relation to the miracle is the same—it is one of |
T2:12.7 | you have come to see calling as a gift and a treasure as well as a | learning device, so you must come to see your own ability to call |
T3:1.7 | but the result of the change in cause that has occurred through your | learning of this Course. |
T3:3.9 | While your recognition of your Self has come a long way through your | learning of this Course, your self is still seen as a stumbling |
T3:3.9 | personality, and simply declare yourself unsuitable for further | learning. Whether you think such thoughts consciously or not, there |
T3:5.2 | As with the gentle | learning of this Course, not all emptiness has come to you at the |
T3:6.4 | is not a God of vengeance but that you are still in the process of | learning that your Self is not vengeful. The ego has given you many |
T3:9.2 | they will not take time, as did the ego’s ideas, to spread through | learning. |
T3:9.3 | starting with the smallest building blocks of knowledge, as if | learning a new alphabet. Yet you soon will find that this new reality |
T3:9.3 | will find that this new reality is known to you and requires no new | learning at all. You will be tempted, at first, to see things that |
T3:10.7 | Truth? Being cognizant of this is the only way that the simultaneous | learning and unlearning that was spoken of earlier will be able to be |
T3:11.9 | of Truth rather than the House of Peace for a reason. What you are | learning is no longer that the Kingdom of God or the House of Truth |
T3:13.4 | and need not repeat unlearning that has been accomplished. The new | learning that lies ahead of you now is simply learning in accordance |
T3:13.4 | accomplished. The new learning that lies ahead of you now is simply | learning in accordance with the new thought system of the truth; |
T3:14.5 | still would not be other than who you are. What this means to the | learning stage you are at now is that you but think you are |
T3:15.13 | simply concerned with assisting you to live what you have learned. | Learning was needed in order to return you to your Self. Despite |
T3:15.13 | what you have learned, what this Course did was bypass the way of | learning of the ego and call upon the Christ in you to learn anew. |
T3:15.13 | of the ego and call upon the Christ in you to learn anew. That | learning put an end to the old. Living what you have learned will |
T3:17.4 | been said before, time is a measurement of the “time” it takes for | learning to occur. A new experience was chosen—the experience of |
T3:17.4 | as the new beginning you are now called to. It required the | learning of a new thought system, the thought system of the physical, |
T3:17.4 | well as many other creation stories, but tell of a “mistake” in the | learning of a thought system of physicality, a mistake that became a |
T3:17.5 | of unlearning or forgetting of the truth that has led, through the | learning of untruth in the mechanism of time, to the world in which |
T3:17.5 | cannot learn the true, your true Self had to be appealed to for this | learning to take place. |
T3:18.3 | an observable form. It is thus from observable form that the final | learning will take place. This is the perfect example of using what |
T3:19.2 | be true when the physical is now called upon to serve the greatest | learning humankind has ever known? |
T3:20.2 | there is sense to be made from these concepts in regards to the | learning of the truth. As this is all that time is for, and all that |
T3:20.2 | and all that time is but a measurement of, it rightly follows that | learning can take place at a slow pace or a fast pace. There is no |
T3:20.2 | place at a slow pace or a fast pace. There is no more or less to | learning in terms of knowing the truth that you have always known, |
T3:20.3 | with you and thus what you strive for in effectiveness is your own | learning. Now, rather than learning the truth, you are learning how |
T3:20.3 | strive for in effectiveness is your own learning. Now, rather than | learning the truth, you are learning how to live by the truth. This |
T3:20.3 | is your own learning. Now, rather than learning the truth, you are | learning how to live by the truth. This will benefit you and in so |
T3:20.4 | on the Art of Thought,” you were asked to request a miracle as a | learning device. This learning device had two aspects. The first was |
T3:20.4 | you were asked to request a miracle as a learning device. This | learning device had two aspects. The first was to reveal to you your |
T3:20.11 | think as other than who you are in truth. This is how thorough your | learning must be. It is a learning that must not change to fit the |
T3:20.11 | are in truth. This is how thorough your learning must be. It is a | learning that must not change to fit the circumstances of illusion |
T3:21.18 | self. As was said at the beginning of this Treatise, by the time the | learning of this Treatise is complete, the personal self will |
T3:22.4 | if you are unable to integrate two precepts of this course of | learning into your new reality. One is the often-repeated injunction |
T4:1.7 | easily choose not to learn. The nature of life, however, is one of | learning, and if they do not learn what is taught in school, they |
T4:1.10 | is not of the curriculum because they have chosen another means of | learning. Means is what is being spoken of here. But all means are |
T4:1.10 | end. All will learn the same content, for all are chosen; and all | learning, no matter what the means, will eventually lead them to the |
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 would seem a likely |
T4:1.17 | This has also been restated as the difference between the time of | learning through contrast and the time of learning through |
T4:1.17 | between the time of learning through contrast and the time of | learning through observation. It is further stated here as the |
T4:1.17 | observation. It is further stated here as the difference between | learning by contrast and indirect communication and learning through |
T4:1.17 | between learning by contrast and indirect communication and | learning through observation and direction communication or |
T4:1.19 | came to know through similarly indirect means. This is the nature of | learning and of sharing in relationship. Means and end are one. Cause |
T4:1.20 | varying sets of beliefs that, in the way of the time—the way of | learning through contrast—provided contrast through dissent. The |
T4:1.20 | one believed became the evil that another fought and in the contrast | learning did occur and has continued to occur even unto this time. |
T4:1.21 | directly, you are also now to share directly. This is the way of | learning in relationship. Means and end are one. Cause and effect are |
T4:1.22 | impatience with the personal self, with acquiring all that your new | learning in science and technology but seemed to offer. It is what |
T4:1.22 | your fear, a fear that once prevented the direct and observable | learning that now is available to you. |
T4:1.23 | changed from the world of your ancestors despite the advances of | learning that have taken place, it is a different world. You have not |
T4:1.27 | to come to know themselves and God directly, and to pass on this | learning through direct means. What I am saying is that it is not |
T4:1.27 | to come to know themselves and God, and to continue to pass their | learning on indirectly, or through indirect communication and |
T4:1.27 | will become aware of the new state of consciousness and that | learning will pass through them directly through observation and |
T4:2.15 | you were a few years ago, and different now than when you began your | learning of this Course, you are not other than whom you have always |
T4:2.15 | there in all the years since then, and there before you began your | learning of this Course. Your awareness of the Self that you are now |
T4:2.33 | Christ-consciousness is already upon you. You are in the process of | learning what it means. This Treatise is here to help you do so. |
T4:2.33 | of learning what it means. This Treatise is here to help you do so. | Learning to see anew is the precursor of learning to create anew. |
T4:2.33 | is here to help you do so. Learning to see anew is the precursor of | learning to create anew. Creating anew is the precursor of the coming |
T4:7.3 | Those of you who have acquired Christ-consciousness and are now | learning the vision of Christ-consciousness must realize the many |
T4:7.6 | Your mind, heart, and body have joined in alignment to bring this | learning about. They now exist in harmony. Your mind and heart in |
T4:7.7 | You will realize that what is is optimal to your | learning. But you will also realize that an end to your learning is |
T4:7.7 | to your learning. But you will also realize that an end to your | learning is in sight. Christ-consciousness and the ability to know |
T4:7.7 | it has reached a state of sustainability in you, ends your need for | learning and thus ends the conditions of learning. In other words, |
T4:7.7 | in you, ends your need for learning and thus ends the conditions of | learning. In other words, being in harmony with poor health and |
T4:7.7 | of learning. In other words, being in harmony with poor health and | learning the lesson that it has come to impart to you, will return |
T4:7.7 | of Christ-consciousness. The same is true of all conditions of all | learning everywhere. The conditions are perfect for optimal learning. |
T4:7.7 | of all learning everywhere. The conditions are perfect for optimal | learning. This is the nature of the universe. These conditions are |
T4:7.7 | the universe. These conditions are perfect not only for individual | learning, but for shared learning, learning in community and learning |
T4:7.7 | are perfect not only for individual learning, but for shared | learning, learning in community and learning as a species. |
T4:7.7 | perfect not only for individual learning, but for shared learning, | learning in community and learning as a species. |
T4:7.7 | learning, but for shared learning, learning in community and | learning as a species. |
T4:7.8 | But let me again emphasize that the conditions of | learning will be no longer needed once learning has occurred. The |
T4:7.8 | that the conditions of learning will be no longer needed once | learning has occurred. The student no longer needs to attend school |
T4:7.8 | an educated choice, an enlightened choice, a free choice due to the | learning that has already occurred, the choice will be one guided by |
T4:7.9 | But the choice many of you will make—the choice to move from | learning to creating—will create a new world. |
T4:8.7 | upon what you could “do” with the human body, you can imagine the | learning process that ensued. If your reality had been like unto the |
T4:8.7 | things were loving acts within a loving universe, a love-filled | learning process. A learning process that was as known to you and |
T4:8.7 | acts within a loving universe, a love-filled learning process. A | learning process that was as known to you and chosen by you as it was |
T4:8.9 | creation is perfect. Your mind, being of God, was constrained by the | learning limits of the body and chose to rebel against the learning |
T4:8.9 | by the learning limits of the body and chose to rebel against the | learning that was needed in order to come into the time of fullness |
T4:8.9 | express itself in form, never realizing that this just delayed the | learning that had to occur to release you from the limits you |
T4:8.16 | to know about this one thing. This was the ego’s answer to being a | learning being—choosing something to learn that it could master. |
T4:8.16 | it could master. Yet all that this was, was a desire to be done with | learning, which is a true desire consistent with your true nature and |
T4:8.16 | everything there is to know about even one subject, and to call that | learning complete, is an error. If you rethink this definition you |
T4:8.16 | you rethink this definition you will see that even in regards to the | learning of one subject it is not the truth. The only instance in |
T4:8.16 | truth. The only instance in which this is the truth is in regards to | learning who you are. |
T4:8.17 | Learning, dear brothers and sisters, does come to an end, and that | |
T4:8.17 | to an end, and that end is fast approaching. Coming to know through | learning will be of the past as soon as Christ-consciousness is |
T4:8.17 | begin to come to know through constant revelation of what is. True | learning has had only one purpose—the purpose of returning you to |
T4:8.17 | of returning you to awareness of your true identity. Be done with | learning now as you accept who you truly are. |
T4:9.1 | Learning is not meant to last. This is why even this coursework comes | |
T4:9.1 | to an end. It comes to an end here and now as we move past study and | learning to observation, vision, and revelation. |
T4:9.2 | this coursework must also eventually come to an end. For this end to | learning is the goal toward which we now work. |
T4:9.3 | You have realized that all of your | learning and studying has taken you as far as you can go. You |
T4:9.3 | and been enthralled by those who have synthesized all of the great | learning that has gone on so that they can tell you where it is that |
T4:9.5 | You have felt this time coming. You have realized that your | learning has reached an end point. The excitement of new learning is |
T4:9.5 | that your learning has reached an end point. The excitement of new | learning is not lasting because it is not new. You have begun to see |
T4:9.5 | that you have reached in your understanding of the truth. All the | learning that you have done seems to leave you ready to change and |
T4:9.5 | but certainly not able to realize the transformation that your | learning has seemed to promise. |
T4:9.7 | Realize that the self-centeredness of the final stage of your | learning has been necessary. Only by centering your study upon |
T4:9.9 | be beacons now to the new. You who have gained so much through your | learning and your study and your sharing of the same may find it |
T4:9.9 | it difficult to leave it behind. A choice made by you to stay with | learning rather than to move beyond it would be an understandable |
T4:9.9 | in this next phase of the journey, the journey out of the time of | learning that will usher in the fullness of time. |
T4:10.2 | you to imagine because as you consider your willingness to give up | learning you will meet resistance and realize, for perhaps the first |
T4:10.2 | will meet resistance and realize, for perhaps the first time, that | learning is what your entire life has been about. You cannot imagine |
T4:10.2 | anything new, or be anything beyond that which you now are, without | learning. Your thoughts might stray to ideas about experiencing, |
T4:10.2 | and yet you will quickly see that you merely think of experience as | learning through a different means than studying. |
T4:10.3 | As you have advanced along your self-centered path of | learning, you have come to see everything in your life as exactly |
T4:10.3 | see everything in your life as exactly what it has been—a means of | learning. You have encountered problems and wondered what lessons |
T4:10.3 | come to teach you. You have encountered illness and wondered what | learning the illness has come to bring you. You have learned anew |
T4:10.4 | as teachers. It is here that you can begin to learn to let go of | learning because it is here that learning has been least practiced |
T4:10.4 | you can begin to learn to let go of learning because it is here that | learning has been least practiced through the means of studying. |
T4:10.6 | The outcome of | learning or what is studied is the production of things and perceived |
T4:10.7 | What we work toward now is to advance from | learning and producing things and perceived meaning, to producing |
T4:10.8 | The | learning that was applied to anything other than the Self could not |
T4:10.8 | Means and end are one, cause and effect the same. Thus this applied | learning produced things and perceived meaning. |
T4:10.9 | The | learning you have accomplished in regards to your Self could not help |
T4:10.9 | and end are one, cause and effect the same. Thus this accomplished | learning produced unity and relationship through unity and |
T4:10.10 | The first accomplishment of your | learning about your Self was the return of unity and relationship to |
T4:10.11 | Learning has had to do with what is perceived. No longer learning has | |
T4:10.11 | Learning has had to do with what is perceived. No longer | learning has to do with what is revealed. Learning has had to do with |
T4:10.11 | is perceived. No longer learning has to do with what is revealed. | Learning has had to do with what is unknown. No longer learning has |
T4:10.11 | is revealed. Learning has had to do with what is unknown. No longer | learning has to do with what is and can only be known through |
T4:10.11 | has to do with what is and can only be known through revelation. | Learning has had to do with supplying a lack. No longer learning has |
T4:10.11 | revelation. Learning has had to do with supplying a lack. No longer | learning has to do with the realization that there is no lack. |
T4:10.11 | learning has to do with the realization that there is no lack. | Learning was what was necessary in order to allow you to fulfill the |
T4:10.11 | desired experience of expressing the Self of love in form. No longer | learning is the revelation that the time of accomplishment is upon |
T4:10.11 | of the Self of love in form is what you are now ready to do. | Learning was what was necessary in order to know who you are and how |
T4:10.11 | order to know who you are and how to express who you are. No longer | learning, or being accomplished, is synonymous with knowing who you |
T4:10.12 | of love is the natural state of being of those who have moved beyond | learning to creating through unity and relationship. |
T4:10.13 | I said earlier, some will not be willing to move out of the time of | learning. Those who have learned what this Course would teach but do |
T4:10.13 | what this Course would teach but do not move beyond the state of | learning will change the world. They will make the world a better |
T4:10.13 | advance beyond what they can teach and to the state of leaving | learning behind. |
T4:10.14 | Those of you willing to leave | learning behind will create the new. This will not happen through |
T4:10.14 | learning behind will create the new. This will not happen through | learning but through sharing. You can learn to change the world, but |
T4:10.14 | the future but an extension of the past. You who are called to leave | learning behind are called to return to your union and relationship |
T4:11.2 | The future depends on you who are willing to leave | learning behind and who are willing to accept your new roles as |
T4:11.4 | our new means of communicating and creating, a sharing that replaces | learning with what is beyond learning. I conclude this Treatise by |
T4:11.4 | and creating, a sharing that replaces learning with what is beyond | learning. I conclude this Treatise by sharing that which will assist |
T4:12.5 | of enormous proportions are upon you. The first is the end of | learning, the ramifications of which will only slowly occur to your |
T4:12.7 | are not the acts of an intermediary and why they represent direct | learning. |
T4:12.8 | All conditions that were intermediary in nature during the time of | learning, are, during the time of sharing, naturally converted to |
T4:12.9 | will now elicit direct experiences of sharing. If you have enjoyed | learning through gatherings of students, gather still, and experience |
T4:12.10 | All you must remember now is that the time of | learning is past. While you are still encountering concerns and |
T4:12.10 | questions, you will be prone to continue to think of yourself as a | learning being. While these dialogues continue to address these same |
T4:12.10 | capacity to express who you are. As long as you continue to invite | learning, you will continue to invite the conditions of learning. |
T4:12.10 | to invite learning, you will continue to invite the conditions of | learning. These are the conditions you have experienced throughout |
T4:12.10 | vigilant of your thought patterns so that you eradicate the idea of | learning in separation and replace it with the idea of sharing in |
T4:12.10 | in separation and replace it with the idea of sharing in unity. | Learning is a condition of the separated self, which is why it is no |
T4:12.12 | he saw the dawning of his contentment as the sign that one period of | learning was over and that it was time to move on to the next. During |
T4:12.12 | over and that it was time to move on to the next. During the time of | learning, this statement was consistent with learned wisdom. During |
T4:12.12 | wisdom. During the new time of sharing, there is no “next phase” of | learning for you to move on to. There is no reason for you not to |
T4:12.13 | you see that your idea of growth was synonymous with your idea of | learning? That you were always both awaiting and dreading your next |
T4:12.13 | learning? That you were always both awaiting and dreading your next | learning challenge? |
T4:12.14 | Why was this so? You eagerly awaited each | learning challenge in the hopes that it would bring you to the state |
T4:12.14 | bring you to the state in which you now abide! You dreaded each | learning challenge because you feared that it would not bring you to |
T4:12.14 | to need to learn, and to perhaps suffer from, the conditions of | learning! |
T4:12.19 | you will occasionally have setbacks and choose the conditions of | learning instead of sharing in unity in order to realize some bit of |
T4:12.20 | when it arises. The self-centeredness of the final stage of | learning is over. |
T4:12.21 | patterns of old were patterns designed for the optimal benefit of | learning. These patterns were created by the one mind and heart that |
T4:12.21 | were once the co-creator of the pattern of consciousness that was | learning. |
T4:12.24 | sharing in unity and relationship. There is no pattern within it for | learning (which is individual), for individual gain, or for |
T4:12.25 | was possible to achieve as an individual. The purpose of individual | learning was the return of unity! Pause a moment here, and celebrate |
T4:12.25 | personal self, through the self-centeredness of the final stages of | learning, has achieved the ultimate achievement possible! Let |
T4:12.25 | the ultimate achievement possible! Let yourself be grateful for the | learning you have achieved. Celebrate this graduation, this |
T4:12.27 | of when we talk of patterns. There was a pattern to the process of | learning that was shared by all learners and inherent to your |
T4:12.27 | was the same. There was an overall design that ensured optimal | learning and that design was known to you in the pattern of that |
T4:12.28 | or singular consciousness that was appropriate to the time of | learning does not continue. Thus the new pattern is one of creation |
T4:12.28 | new pattern is one of creation in relationship and unity rather than | learning. What this means will be revealed to you and shared by all |
T4:12.29 | from choosing separation. You do have to refrain from choosing | learning and the conditions of learning. |
T4:12.29 | You do have to refrain from choosing learning and the conditions of | learning. |
T4:12.31 | is. This will help you to adapt to the revelations that replace | learning. This will help you to adapt to the truth of a sharing you |
D:1.4 | not been convinced that you are done preparing as you are done with | learning. You still want to figure out what to do, what comes next, |
D:1.15 | cannot be taught what unity would freely give. The goal is no longer | learning. The goal is accepting the identity that has always been |
D:1.17 | This cannot be done through | learning, for as you have been told, learning was the means of the |
D:1.17 | This cannot be done through learning, for as you have been told, | learning was the means of the separated self’s return to unity. These |
D:1.17 | again. They can be used as continuing lessons until you feel that | learning is fully accomplished. They can serve as reminders as you |
D:1.17 | to become the Self you have learned that you are. But further | learning is not what will complete the transformation of the personal |
D:1.17 | the transformation of the personal self to the elevated Self. | Learning will not sustain Christ-consciousness. |
D:1.21 | begin with prayer to remind you of what you have learned in unity, a | learning that has been different from all learning you but thought |
D:1.21 | have learned in unity, a learning that has been different from all | learning you but thought you accomplished as a separated self. You |
D:1.21 | to be truly learned, you first had to enter a state in which this | learning could occur, a state that could not be taught but only |
D:1.22 | heart in unity have returned to a natural state of knowing in which | learning is no longer needed. You have now come upon a curriculum |
D:1.22 | of you still feel what you would describe as a need for continued | learning and a continuing relationship with a teacher who will guide |
D:1.26 | Learning accepts that there are those separate from you who know | |
D:1.26 | of unity that could not be taught, but was the condition for | learning, acceptance of your true identity cannot be taught but is |
D:1.26 | condition necessary for being who you are and the realization that | learning is no longer necessary. |
D:2.1 | is being continued here, the work of replacing the old patterns of | learning with the new pattern of acceptance. |
D:2.4 | are both learned systems and systems of design. The pattern of | learning was a pattern of divine design, created in unity and |
D:2.5 | to feel a need to learn rather than realizing that the time of | learning has come to an end, would be to not realize completion. |
D:2.6 | could at times be acceptable and even appropriate. In regard to the | learning that you have now completed, learning that has revealed the |
D:2.6 | appropriate. In regard to the learning that you have now completed, | learning that has revealed the true nature of who you are, your |
D:2.7 | the truth. To learn the truth and not accept it is different from | learning what is necessary for a career. To learn the truth and not |
D:2.7 | is insane. To learn the truth and not accept the completion of your | learning is insane. |
D:2.9 | the old so that the new can serve you. We speak of denying modes of | learning in favor of simple acceptance of what is. |
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 |
D:2.15 | they may not have seemed so, all patterns have had to do with | learning because you were, as a separated self, a being whose only |
D:2.15 | you were, as a separated self, a being whose only function was | learning. The function of all learning was to return you to your true |
D:2.15 | self, a being whose only function was learning. The function of all | learning was to return you to your true identity. Because we are |
D:2.19 | the nature of who you are through external means—the means of | learning the nature of the world around you. Thus, in the example of |
D:2.19 | and then to develop a pattern based on what was learned so that | learning would not need to be endlessly repeated. Now these systems |
D:2.19 | Now these systems and patterns have become so entrenched that no new | learning is seen as possible or desirable even though the systems and |
D:2.19 | the systems and patterns are known not to work. In truth, no new | learning or new systems based on the learning patterns of old will |
D:2.19 | not to work. In truth, no new learning or new systems based on the | learning patterns of old will work. Thus we begin anew. |
D:3.5 | to mend the rift of duality, a state that was necessary for the | learning of the separated self but that is no longer necessary. The |
D:3.6 | sickness and health, life and death. In this time of Christ, such | learning is no longer necessary, and so these conditions of learning |
D:3.6 | such learning is no longer necessary, and so these conditions of | learning are no longer necessary. Thus one of your first acts of |
D:3.6 | acts of acceptance is the acceptance of the end of the conditions of | learning. This does not mean, however, that you accept goodness and |
D:3.7 | all the various aspects of life that were needed in the time of | learning. This is why we began quite truthfully and simply with an |
D:3.17 | as teacher and yourself as student. While you think of yourself as a | learning being you will still be looking to something or someone |
D:3.20 | Can this be said of any of the systems you have developed as a | learning being? Are your systems life-giving and life-supporting? The |
D:3.21 | form it is simply a shared quality of oneness. It is not in need of | learning or even understanding. It is. Awareness of what is, is a |
D:4.2 | also are not different. The differences you saw during the time of | learning, differences that made you feel as if each being stood |
D:4.9 | to externalize the patterns contained within. Patterns are both of | learning and of design. |
D:4.11 | that you have either seen and learned enough during your time as a | learning being that you accept that a divine design created the |
D:4.12 | created the internal world. The internal divine pattern was that of | learning. |
D:4.13 | together to create a pattern of acceptance to replace the pattern of | learning. |
D:4.15 | were part of the divine pattern. Contrast is one such system. As a | learning being, you accepted that you learned through contrast, |
D:4.15 | through contrast, knowing that contrast was provided for your | learning. It was upon the foundation of this and other thought |
D:4.16 | even for the divinely inspired thought systems to provide the | learning they were designed to impart. Such is the case with the |
D:4.16 | they were designed to impart. Such is the case with the system of | learning through contrast, since when the ego entered with its false |
D:4.16 | self took you, the true Self and the true learner, out of the | learning loop. Obviously these systems, built as they were upon |
D:4.18 | existence, is now recreating the patterns that served the time of | learning. What was learned in the instant in which you came to know |
D:4.18 | in the instant in which you came to know your Self is all that | learning was for. Let us not dwell any longer on why this has taken |
D:4.18 | taken so long or on the suffering that occurred during the time of | learning. This would be like dwelling on the inmate’s life as an |
D:4.24 | own internal authority be your first “act” of acceptance rather than | learning. Turn to this as the new pattern and to the thought system |
D:4.28 | to what is, to what is left now that the patterns and systems of | learning are no longer. |
D:5.5 | illustrates how one aspect of what was created in the pattern of | learning, while not being seen in the way it was intended, still |
D:5.11 | All was given to you to remind you of who you are in the time of | learning that is now passing away. Thus all was given to you to |
D:5.12 | Love and the loving patterns given in the time of | learning are all that exist in all you see. But what now will become |
D:5.12 | now will become of these patterns that are no longer needed as your | learning and that of those around you comes to an end? What was |
D:5.12 | around you comes to an end? What was created to serve the time of | learning, to represent what is and aid you in your return to what is, |
D:5.13 | a tool to help you do so. This would assume that you are still a | learning being and have need of such help. You are no longer a |
D:5.13 | a learning being and have need of such help. You are no longer a | learning being and need not this assistance. |
D:5.14 | In this time of Christ, we are not called to recreate the “tools” of | learning but to allow all that was created to show the way back to |
D:5.21 | inconsistent with your being. You will wonder how, if you are done | learning, the patterns of learning will change to help you embrace |
D:5.21 | You will wonder how, if you are done learning, the patterns of | learning will change to help you embrace the acceptance of this new |
D:6.1 | restated many times so that you would not forget the purpose of the | learning you were participating in. Eventually your learning reached |
D:6.1 | purpose of the learning you were participating in. Eventually your | learning reached an end point as the learning goal of this Course was |
D:6.1 | in. Eventually your learning reached an end point as the | learning goal of this Course was met, and this you were told as well. |
D:6.2 | comparison, a method that will be used less and less as the time of | learning passes. The thought reversal of which we recently spoke is |
D:6.2 | which we recently spoke is why I bring this up. During your time of | learning, I used a method of comparison—I compared the real to the |
D:6.2 | of you the repetition of the properties of the false that aided your | learning may now work as a detriment to your acceptance as you cling |
D:6.2 | let them go in order to embrace true representation. In the time of | learning, you were so entrenched in your false beliefs that their |
D:6.4 | of the body as the self was almost as detrimental to your | learning as the false representation of the ego as the self, the |
D:6.5 | Like all that was created for the time of | learning, the body was the perfect learning device. Seeing it as such |
D:6.5 | that was created for the time of learning, the body was the perfect | learning device. Seeing it as such assisted us in bringing about the |
D:6.5 | it as such assisted us in bringing about the end of the time of | learning. But now your body—your form—must be seen in a new way. |
D:6.13 | has been a false certainty, it served a great purpose in the time of | learning. Discovery has been a grand facilitator of the human |
D:6.21 | you are now called to accept that you no longer need this type of | learning device and to realize that it will no longer serve you. |
D:6.22 | the “laws” of the body, the laws you gave the body in the time of | learning, knowing not what the design of the body represented? What |
D:6.24 | We have talked of but one replacement for the pattern of | learning—the pattern of acceptance. What might the body be called |
D:6.24 | of Christ. You have replaced the personal self, the self of | learning, with the true Self. You have accepted your true identity. |
D:6.25 | The body was, in the time of | learning, representative of a learning being. The ego, however, |
D:6.25 | The body was, in the time of learning, representative of a | learning being. The ego, however, narrowed your ideas of what the |
D:6.25 | being, but you increased not its capacity for true living or true | learning. And with the extended life span came extended reasons for |
D:6.28 | time go together. Yet you have been told time is a measurement of | learning. If you are no longer a learning being, for what is time |
D:6.28 | been told time is a measurement of learning. If you are no longer a | learning being, for what is time needed? Time is needed now only for |
D:6.28 | Time is needed now only for the transformation of the self from a | learning being to a being that can accept the shared consciousness of |
D:7.2 | This language was used because you were still, at that time, a | learning being. Now we will adjust our language somewhat to represent |
D:7.2 | what was said earlier as “What you discover in unity is shared.” | Learning does not occur in unity, but discovery is an ongoing aspect |
D:7.3 | You were also told within this Course that because you were | learning in separation, unity had to be experienced individually |
D:7.3 | in separation, unity had to be experienced individually before | learning could be shared at another level, and that levels are a |
D:7.4 | of form take place in time because experience, too, was designed for | learning. Now experience is needed in time to aid your total |
D:7.4 | must answer the call to let revelation and discovery, rather than | learning, be what you gain from experience. |
D:7.9 | aware of all that you are. The body, rather than aiding you in | learning as it once did, will aid you now in this discovery. |
D:7.23 | old that needs to be left behind. It is a provision of the time of | learning that allows the learning being to learn at his or her own |
D:7.23 | behind. It is a provision of the time of learning that allows the | learning being to learn at his or her own pace and to pass this |
D:7.23 | the learning being to learn at his or her own pace and to pass this | learning on in time. |
D:8.2 | Imagine this first as a place where no | learning is needed. Ah, you might say now, this you have heard |
D:8.2 | too “good” to be true. You are too used to thinking of yourself as a | learning being to truly experience the freedom of not being bound by |
D:8.2 | your life, you can think of no ability you have not achieved through | learning. And yet most of you have “discovered” something that comes |
D:8.3 | ability or talent that existed in some form prior to the time of | learning. We concentrate on this idea merely as an idea and not in |
D:8.3 | you have experienced something that existed prior to the time of | learning. And that this something was quite wonderful. |
D:8.4 | You might think of this ability that existed prior to the time of | learning as coming from the content of the wider circle of who you |
D:9.4 | sought. Even now, when you have learned all that you are in need of | learning, the pattern, even of your wholeheartedness, remains one of |
D:9.5 | Thought is a practice and a pattern of the separated and thus | learning self. When it was said within this Course that you are an |
D:9.5 | accurate and truthful way of expressing what was true for you as a | learning being. |
D:9.8 | work. The aims we clearly embraced together when you were still a | learning being were meant to allow you to come to know your true |
D:9.10 | self. Thus the Treatises were not inconsistent with our aims here. | Learning always has as its goal leading the learner beyond learning. |
D:9.10 | here. Learning always has as its goal leading the learner beyond | learning. With “A Treatise on the New” we established what lies |
D:9.10 | With “A Treatise on the New” we established what lies beyond | learning. Now, as we embrace the new together, it must be realized |
D:9.12 | abilities you discovered existed within you prior to the time of | learning, ideas are also discoveries that you make, discoveries that |
D:9.12 | also discoveries that you make, discoveries that exist apart from | learning. Ideas “come to you.” They are given and received. They are |
D:9.12 | and pleasing in nature. You may think that they are the result of | learning, of thoughts you have contemplated and struggled with. You |
D:9.12 | and struggled with. You may think that all of your previous | learning and thinking merely resulted eventually in a new idea being |
D:10.1 | knowing that come to you, and through you, outside of the pattern of | learning. |
D:10.2 | Learning is about the transfer of knowledge that was gained in the | |
D:10.2 | is about the transfer of knowledge that was gained in the time of | learning, through the process of learning. Notice the inability of |
D:10.2 | that was gained in the time of learning, through the process of | learning. Notice the inability of teaching or learning to call forth |
D:10.2 | through the process of learning. Notice the inability of teaching or | learning to call forth talents, ideas, imagination, inspiration, |
D:10.2 | intuition, vision, or calling. You may believe that teaching and | learning appropriately work with and enable the use of abilities such |
D:10.3 | expression in much the same ways that the effort of teaching and | learning limits them. It is your joyous acceptance of the already |
D:10.7 | of your true way of knowing, a way that existed prior to the time of | learning and that has always existed. When put into practice and |
D:10.7 | When put into practice and allowed to replace the pattern of | learning, this way of discovery will be a constant coming to know of |
D:11.6 | conceive of a time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as | learning now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full |
D:14.10 | to creation of the new. It paves the way much as each step of | learning that was needed in the time of learning paved the way for |
D:14.10 | the way much as each step of learning that was needed in the time of | learning paved the way for the next and then the next. But while I |
D:14.10 | as,” this is only to provide you with a way to understand this, for | learning is incremental and discovery is not. Learning took place in |
D:14.10 | understand this, for learning is incremental and discovery is not. | Learning took place in parts in an effort to lead to wholeness. |
D:15.1 | are like unto the patterns that were created for your time of | learning and that will be applied anew to the creation of new |
D:15.21 | Let this idea enter you now. You have left behind the conditions of | learning. Why? Because they are no longer needed. The time of |
D:15.21 | of learning. Why? Because they are no longer needed. The time of | learning has ended. When this time of becoming has ended, the |
D:15.21 | be as big a step as was the step that left behind the conditions of | learning, a step from which you at times feel as if you are still |
D:15.23 | What you gain here you gain from what is beyond effort and beyond | learning, and from the maintenance of the state in which you reject |
D:15.23 | the maintenance of the state in which you reject the conditions of | learning. You maintain here, in short, all of the conditions |
D:16.6 | Love cannot be learned, and so has stood apart from the time of | learning. Being could be learned here, because it was not yet whole. |
D:16.12 | to go. You have often thought that even though you may be done with | learning, you don’t feel quite complete, or possibly even feel as if |
D:16.12 | learning, you don’t feel quite complete, or possibly even feel as if | learning has not quite been accomplished in you. This is precisely |
D:16.14 | in what you know. You realize fully that you are no longer a | learning being and that you have no need for teachers or for guidance |
D:16.15 | becoming is to realize that an in-between exists between the time of | learning and the time of being the elevated Self of form; that times |
D:16.16 | your former ideas about yourself, all of the patterns of the time of | learning, all of the moments in which you feel an inability to join |
D:16.21 | images, and when you retain them you do not allow for the time of | learning to be replaced with the only replacement that will sustain |
D:16.21 | that will sustain Christ-consciousness, the replacement of | learning with sharing in unity and relationship. |
D:17.14 | conceive of a time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as | learning now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full |
D:17.24 | heartaches are experienced along the way. All the experiences and | learning occur on the journey. |
D:Day1.14 | Have 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 |
D:Day3.2 | What was it that was “taught” to in the time of | learning? It was the mind. Thus, your mind has been trained for |
D:Day3.2 | of learning? It was the mind. Thus, your mind has been trained for | learning and you are most willing to have new insight, new |
D:Day3.2 | through them did you learn. You are beginning to see now that this | learning was not a choice but only the way you knew life to be. While |
D:Day3.2 | but only the way you knew life to be. While the freedom of childhood | learning might be seen as the way learning was meant to be, the time |
D:Day3.2 | be. While the freedom of childhood learning might be seen as the way | learning was meant to be, the time of this pure learning has grown |
D:Day3.2 | be seen as the way learning was meant to be, the time of this pure | learning has grown shorter and shorter while the time of enforced |
D:Day3.2 | learning has grown shorter and shorter while the time of enforced | learning has grown more entrenched. |
D:Day3.3 | In the area of the body came another form of | learning about which you saw yourself as having little choice. When |
D:Day3.3 | but to listen? So the mind and body were both conditioned to have | learning thrust upon them. You long ago quit resisting most of this |
D:Day3.3 | learning thrust upon them. You long ago quit resisting most of this | learning and “accepted” it as the way things are. This kind of |
D:Day3.4 | and as a species, have been conditioned by thousands of years of | learning through the mind—learning in often painful ways—said |
D:Day3.4 | conditioned by thousands of years of learning through the mind— | learning in often painful ways—said “no” to learning through the |
D:Day3.4 | through the mind—learning in often painful ways—said “no” to | learning through the heart. Many of you will admit to growing a bit |
D:Day3.4 | its challenge to your ideas regarding love. Most of you approached | learning through the heart with even more openness than you did new |
D:Day3.5 | where anger seems to arise, anger is a product of the condition of | learning. It always was, but now this is being revealed to you not |
D:Day3.6 | is greeted with even more anger and more resistance in regard to | learning of all kinds—in other words both old learning as well as |
D:Day3.6 | in regard to learning of all kinds—in other words both old | learning as well as new—than love. This is the area that you call |
D:Day3.7 | to money or abundance. The area of money, or abundance, is where | learning fooled you and failed you the most. |
D:Day3.12 | ideas of lack, an idea you so thoroughly learned during the time of | learning that letting it go, even now, still torments you with worry |
D:Day3.13 | This is the basic fallacy that the time of | learning supported. The idea of “if this, then that.” The idea of |
D:Day3.23 | is the “reality” of your life because it was the reality of the | learning life. Even if you are one of those others consider lucky, |
D:Day3.25 | have learned that nothing is “given,” for what use would you have of | learning if such were not the case? In our dialogue, we have begun to |
D:Day3.26 | learn them within the teachings of A Course of Love. But beyond | learning is where we now stand. We now stand at the place of the |
D:Day3.26 | is where we now stand. We now stand at the place of the rejection of | learning—the rejection of all you learned. |
D:Day3.28 | The condition of want, like all conditions of | learning, ended with the end of learning. The condition of want was a |
D:Day3.28 | of want, like all conditions of learning, ended with the end of | learning. The condition of want was a learning device—not one of |
D:Day3.28 | ended with the end of learning. The condition of want was a | learning device—not one of divine design, but one of the thought |
D:Day3.29 | You think you could learn what is for you the most difficult type of | learning, be it philosophy, math, or foreign languages, before you |
D:Day3.36 | Learning is no longer the way for good reason. It exemplifies the | |
D:Day3.38 | What you have “learned,” and since the time of | learning had revealed to you, is a new way, the way of direct |
D:Day3.39 | When I said earlier in this chapter that you are most comfortable | learning through the mind because of your familiarity with the |
D:Day3.39 | through the mind because of your familiarity with the pattern of | learning through the mind, you can perhaps see why these first |
D:Day3.40 | open to other means of accessing the wisdom you once sought through | learning, or through the mind, other means will open to you. You may |
D:Day3.47 | form. This would be like still seeing the mind as the only source of | learning, and learning as the only source of knowledge. What you have |
D:Day3.47 | be like still seeing the mind as the only source of learning, and | learning as the only source of knowledge. What you have begun to see |
D:Day3.50 | at the unseen benefits of what you have acquired from this | learning, of promises seemingly made and not kept. Where, you may |
D:Day3.57 | Can you begin to see acceptance as an active function, much as | learning was an active function? Acceptance is an active function. It |
D:Day3.58 | another trick of the mind, you will not see it as the replacement of | learning, and as such as an active state, a state in which you begin |
D:Day3.58 | active state, a state in which you begin to work with what is beyond | learning, a state in which you are in relationship with what is |
D:Day3.58 | a state in which you are in relationship with what is beyond | learning. It is in truth, a state in which you enter into an |
D:Day3.59 | accept that you no longer have to learn and accept the condition of | learning that is want. |
D:Day4.1 | attention to these areas most incorrectly influenced by the time of | learning. Remember here all the “arguments” that I needed to present |
D:Day4.5 | As we discussed in yesterday’s dialogue, | learning has not been a choice. Both as divine design and as a |
D:Day4.5 | as divine design and as a pattern of the thought system of the ego, | learning has been with you and within you. Although the divine design |
D:Day4.5 | with you and within you. Although the divine design of the time of | learning is being recreated, the ceaseless pattern of learning |
D:Day4.5 | of the time of learning is being recreated, the ceaseless pattern of | learning remains. |
D:Day4.6 | The divine design of | learning was a given and a natural part of you, much like breathing. |
D:Day4.7 | Learning was not meant to be linked with thinking. Again I’ll draw | |
D:Day4.7 | to be linked with thinking. Again I’ll draw your attention to the | learning of childhood. Learning begins long before the onset of the |
D:Day4.7 | Again I’ll draw your attention to the learning of childhood. | Learning begins long before the onset of the time of language that |
D:Day4.7 | man and early childhood can thus be linked as examples of a kind of | learning that, despite evolution, has not left any of you. You all |
D:Day4.8 | Does this not sound odd, foreign to you? And yet this is the way | learning was designed to be. Learning was given as a natural means of |
D:Day4.8 | foreign to you? And yet this is the way learning was designed to be. | Learning was given as a natural means of access to all that was |
D:Day4.8 | through effort any more than breathing was designed to be effortful. | Learning was designed, like the intake of breath, to be taken in and |
D:Day4.9 | ability to learn is given to all in like measure. The conformity of | learning, however, is the product of an externalized system. That you |
D:Day4.9 | —the way that has been taught—think that you have succeeded in | learning, is the cause of the insanity of the world and of your anger |
D:Day4.13 | state free from want, a state free from suffering, a state free from | learning, a state free from death. To be told that such a place |
D:Day4.15 | of your perception, what we might call a world-view attained through | learning. |
D:Day4.20 | In the time of | learning, however, it was natural that my example life was seen as |
D:Day4.27 | knowing the truth of your existence, how could you be done with | learning? This was what learning was for. And learning is not the way |
D:Day4.27 | your existence, how could you be done with learning? This was what | learning was for. And learning is not the way to the access that you |
D:Day4.27 | could you be done with learning? This was what learning was for. And | learning is not the way to the access that you seek. As all that |
D:Day4.30 | Thinking, in this time beyond | learning, could be rightly seen as a constraint you but try to impose |
D:Day4.30 | on all that is natural. Your thinking, since it is a product of | learning, does nothing but attempt to learn or teach. These are the |
D:Day4.31 | and all the treasure that will come with the end of the time of | learning. You, on the other hand, are thinking, yearning, grasping |
D:Day4.41 | the first real choice of Christ-consciousness, of the time beyond | learning. |
D:Day4.49 | making this wholehearted choice, but you will read only to learn and | learning will not transform you. If you do not truly and |
D:Day4.51 | forward with you is fear, for fear is the cause of the state of | learning. You may have thought separation was the cause, but |
D:Day4.51 | again, which is why the time of fear, and along with it the time of | learning, can cease to be. |
D:Day4.52 | I have not so directly linked fear and the time of | learning before, but now you need to see their connection, for if you |
D:Day4.53 | of illusion that have disguised your fear, to move you beyond false | learning to the truth that only needs to be accepted. If you can move |
D:Day4.55 | your own homecoming. To leave behind the time of wandering, seeking, | learning. To leave behind fear for the embrace of the love and safety |
D:Day5.19 | This is because you are still entrenched in the pattern of | learning, as your earnest effort to leave effort behind implies. |
D:Day5.19 | that union cannot be learned, for if it could be, the time of | learning would be perpetuated rather than ended. |
D:Day5.20 | Remember that you are tired of | learning. You are tired here, after your climb. You simply want to |
D:Day5.22 | for it is the way of creation. Again, this is why the “effort” of | learning must cease. |
D:Day5.23 | or learn “how to” heal must be thwarted, for if not, the pattern of | learning will remain. This is why there have always seemed to be |
D:Day5.23 | to share, only that the means of sharing was not one of teaching or | learning. |
D:Day5.24 | will only, in this way, be seen as the new givens come to replace | learning. |
D:Day5.25 | access to unity. Focus does not mean thinking. Focus does not mean | learning. Remember the example of how your breathing becomes |
D:Day6.1 | becoming is to realize that an in-between exists between the time of | learning and the time of being the elevated Self of form. This is |
D:Day6.19 | Learning takes the student away from “normal” life and creates a | |
D:Day6.19 | for the elevation of which we speak. There are no hallowed halls of | learning that will accomplish this. There is no mountain top in any |
D:Day6.23 | a position to be able to begin to perform with any certainty. Even | learning is accelerated by hands-on activities, by doing what one has |
D:Day6.24 | You have done your | learning and your teacher has stepped aside as a teacher and become a |
D:Day6.32 | seem never ending? It is until it is replaced by reverence, just as | learning was unending until it was replaced by acceptance. The |
D:Day6.32 | of this time of acceptance are not the conditions of the time of | learning, and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the time of |
D:Day6.32 | and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the time of | learning truly is behind you. |
D:Day7.2 | of yourself was the precondition that set the stage for the time of | learning. The time of learning would not have been needed had you not |
D:Day7.2 | that set the stage for the time of learning. The time of | learning would not have been needed had you not denied your Self. |
D:Day7.5 | You must realize here that the pattern of | learning is now all that is left that can be degenerating to you. |
D:Day7.5 | be degenerating to you. While you always were supported, the idea of | learning that you accepted during the time of learning was not one of |
D:Day7.5 | supported, the idea of learning that you accepted during the time of | learning was not one of support but one of effort. You must accept, |
D:Day7.5 | support but one of effort. You must accept, now, that the pattern of | learning is an extension of fear and be willing and vigilant in |
D:Day7.8 | new you. They exist in acceptance and union. They do not exist in | learning and separation. They exist in love. They do not exist in |
D:Day7.9 | that led the body to exhibit the conditions of fear in the time of | learning. Thus it is the mind’s acceptance of love that will lead the |
D:Day7.13 | is easy to see from here how the dominoes fall and each condition of | learning is replaced, always by a far gentler and more compassionate |
D:Day7.16 | of the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of | learning, will pass. There are no conditions in the state of union as |
D:Day7.18 | of the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of | learning, arise from within. Life has always existed within the |
D:Day7.18 | conditions of the time of acceptance. The conditions of the time of | learning were but imposed conditions that also arose from within. |
D:Day7.19 | heart, of the real Self from the ego-self, that created the need for | learning and the imposition, from within, of the conditions of the |
D:Day7.19 | and the imposition, from within, of the conditions of the time of | learning. |
D:Day8.27 | the bypassing of this “how to” function—a function of the time of | learning—that we are heading toward. |
D:Day8.29 | the new. This is thinking comprised of the time-delay of the time of | learning—of a time when you used your feelings, opinions, and |
D:Day9.12 | image, no matter how it was formed, is a product of the time of | learning. It became an image in your mind, and maybe even within your |
D:Day9.12 | your mind, and maybe even within your heart, through the process of | learning. It arose from the learning of right from wrong, good from |
D:Day9.12 | your heart, through the process of learning. It arose from the | learning of right from wrong, good from bad. It arose from the |
D:Day9.12 | the learning of right from wrong, good from bad. It arose from the | learning of moral and religious beliefs. It arose from comparison. It |
D:Day9.13 | This ideal image is intimately related with the time of | learning in another way as well. It is the epitome of learning, what |
D:Day9.13 | the time of learning in another way as well. It is the epitome of | learning, what you have seen learning as being for. While other |
D:Day9.13 | way as well. It is the epitome of learning, what you have seen | learning as being for. While other learning goals may have receded, |
D:Day9.13 | of learning, what you have seen learning as being for. While other | learning goals may have receded, this one seems a learning goal |
D:Day9.13 | for. While other learning goals may have receded, this one seems a | learning goal worthy of your effort. It seems to be a true goal |
D:Day9.15 | As with most goals of the time of | learning, it was an ego-centered goal, a carrot of fulfillment the |
D:Day9.16 | The idea of your “potential” was a useful | learning tool and one that served the purposes of the Holy Spirit as |
D:Day9.16 | yourself would have you be, was a necessary tool to call you to the | learning that would return you to your true identity. But the time |
D:Day9.27 | the beauty and truth of who you are has been taught out of you by | learning practices that sought for sameness, and saw not your |
D:Day9.28 | All of these | learning practices were the product of false images of the way things |
D:Day9.32 | simple realization that you do still desire, or think you desire, | learning challenges of this type and with the realization that this |
D:Day9.32 | of this type and with the realization that this is all these are— | learning challenges. You seek learning challenges now only because of |
D:Day9.32 | that this is all these are—learning challenges. You seek | learning challenges now only because of the consistency with which |
D:Day9.32 | which you did so in the past. In the past you moved quickly from one | learning challenge to another. You have just completed a monumental |
D:Day9.32 | learning challenge to another. You have just completed a monumental | learning challenge and so your natural pattern would be to keep going |
D:Day9.32 | pattern would be to keep going now, to use the momentum of this | learning success to achieve another. |
D:Day10.5 | Realize that in the time of | learning, you felt a need for your doubt just as you felt a need for |
D:Day10.12 | body is the “given” form and while it was the perfect vehicle for | learning in the time of learning, it is now being transformed into |
D:Day10.12 | and while it was the perfect vehicle for learning in the time of | learning, it is now being transformed into the perfect vehicle for |
D:Day10.12 | what has been in a new way, and as you all know from the time of | learning, it is often more difficult to become adept in doing |
D:Day14.6 | This is why, after | learning to disclaim all that you have called your “own,” you are now |
D:Day17.4 | dialogue, kept you examining, kept you attempting to move beyond | learning to a new means of knowing? Christ-consciousness. This is why |
D:Day17.4 | around you is all about. An approach to knowing, which was called | learning, was previously the predominant approach. As this approach |
D:Day17.4 | know what others had already learned and were capable of teaching, | learning began to fail the cause of knowing. |
D:Day17.5 | always been individuals who challenged the predominant patterns of | learning because of the strength of their connection to |
D:Day17.9 | those who would approach Christ-consciousness through teaching and | learning and leading example lives. Another way, that of Mary, was |
D:Day18.3 | As has been said, the time of teaching and | learning is over. If the way of Jesus was a way of acceptance, |
D:Day18.3 | is over. If the way of Jesus was a way of acceptance, teaching, | learning, and leading an example life, then the remaining ways of |
D:Day20.2 | reality—an ending within your conscious awareness. A true end of | learning. |
D:Day21.2 | This was true even within the pattern of | learning you have been so familiar with, for in order to learn, the |
D:Day21.2 | the wisdom, guidance or information moved. If it did not do so, | learning did not occur. In traditional learning patterns, the wisdom, |
D:Day21.2 | moved. If it did not do so, learning did not occur. In traditional | learning patterns, the wisdom, guidance, or information sought moved |
D:Day21.3 | Thus it has always been the action of the receiver that made | learning possible. The receiver was thus also the source because the |
D:Day21.6 | to one that isn’t channeled to all. The old notions of teaching and | learning but made it seem as if some had more and others less. But |
D:Day21.6 | it seem as if some had more and others less. But even the pattern of | learning had as its outcome the sameness of teacher and learner—the |
D:Day22.1 | Yesterday we spoke of teachers being channels during the time of | learning. It was also noted that you realize that all of life is a |
D:Day39.45 | expect heaven. Do not expect answers, only knowing. Do not expect | learning, only revelation. Do not expect all, without also expecting |
A.1 | to do with the movement into the Time of Christ, a time of direct | learning in union and relationship with God. The word learning is |
A.1 | time of direct learning in union and relationship with God. The word | learning is loosely used here for no learning is needed in union and |
A.1 | relationship with God. The word learning is loosely used here for no | learning is needed in union and relationship. |
A.2 | Yet, as your work with A Course of Love begins, | learning and unlearning continue. It continues for the sole purpose |
A.2 | and unlearning continue. It continues for the sole purpose for which | learning has always existed—that of returning you from self-doubt |
A.2 | from your perceived state of separation to your true state of union. | Learning is needed only until perception is cured. The perception of |
A.3 | Perception is the result of | learning. Perception is learning. |
A.3 | Perception is the result of learning. Perception is | learning. |
A.4 | not to apply your thought and your effort, your usual means of | learning, to this Course of Love. This Course is not for the mind but |
A.4 | Again I say to you, in the direct relationship achieved in union, no | learning is required. Until you have truly recognized unity, which |
A.4 | and Its Recognition,” you continue to perceive of yourself as a | learning being. This is the only reason for this continuation of the |
A.4 | in A Course in Miracles. While you continue to put effort into | learning what cannot be learned, as you continue to see yourself as a |
A.4 | you cannot recognize the unity in which you exist and be freed from | learning forever. |
A.5 | This is not to say that you will find this Course or the end of | learning to be easy. Yet it is your difficulty in giving up your |
A.5 | be easy. Yet it is your difficulty in giving up your attachment to | learning through the application of thought and effort that creates |
A.5 | to take this Course with as little attachment to your old means of | learning as is possible for you. If you do not understand, accept |
A.11 | through this method is precisely what cannot be taught. What you are | learning through this method is precisely what cannot be sought after |
A.15 | their beliefs as it becomes clear to them that unlike in other | learning situations, there is no correct answer or specific set of |
A.17 | of their hearts. The need for some to remain within the teaching and | learning situation of “right” and “wrong” answers will be strong. |
A.22 | The way of | learning in the Time of Christ brings with it a new kind of evidence, |
A.26 | precisely the time when the reader is so caught up in experience and | learning “in life” that return to a group or classroom situation |
A.27 | Rather than being in a standard | learning situation, what the reader who is now experiencing life in a |
A.29 | configuration, is still the same. It is one movement away from | learning and toward acceptance of what is. While differences may be |

T4:1.19 | It is these indirect means of communicating the truth that have | led to your advances in science and technology, and to the refinement |

D:4.19 | your new freedom. It is your questions and concerns that have | led me to speak of such, for it is you who have felt such as this is |
D:5.3 | false representation. While the false representation of the ego self | led to the world you see, it did not change the truth but only |
D:5.11 | thinking about what everything means. This is the old way that | led to so much misinterpretation and misrepresentation. Acceptance of |
D:9.3 | a truth of who you are, a certainty about who you are. You have been | led to see that this desire has always been with you, and you have |
D:9.10 | Just as the “Art of Thought” | led to abilities beyond the thinking of the ego-mind, the beliefs of |
D:Day2.12 | the innocent “victim” of an adulterous mate, a mate whose actions | led to divorce and the destruction of your home, can you not accept |
D:Day2.18 | example life. The way in which I have talked of it recently may have | led some of you to consider it as a symbolic life rather than an |

D:Day7.9 | Yet it was only your mind’s acceptance of the condition of fear that | led the body to exhibit the conditions of fear in the time of |

T3:1.13 | the curriculum here because you would have been unable, without the | lessons of this Course, to distinguish the personal self from the |
T3:5.1 | just as few of you have never felt some sort of absence. All the | lessons you have drawn to yourself in your lifetime have worked |
T3:5.3 | Conversely, you have been emptied by the | lessons of grief as the loss of love has led to a loss of self. You |
T3:5.5 | All this you have already tried to do. These | lessons you have already tried to learn. This Course has come so that |

T3:14.12 | why we have spent so much time unlearning and why we continue with | lessons of forgetting. |

C:6.21 | All that you have wished for and have not acquired within your | life is the evidence you would use to deny yourself hope of any kind. |
C:7.1 | “I could have been where that person is if not for the unfairness of | life,” you wail. Your mind dwells in a world of its own made up |
C:7.5 | and of itself, for it is the primary thought by which you live your | life. Your effort goes into maintaining this illusion that what you |
C:7.6 | is the piece that screams never to that which would beat you down. | Life is seen as a constant taking away and this, you claim, will |
C:7.9 | the eternal will be upon you. Death will be a dream as the wind of | life reunited with itself gathers from directions that are beyond |
C:7.9 | gathers from directions that are beyond direction and breathes | life back into what has so long been locked away. After this a gentle |
C:7.9 | After this a gentle breeze will come, never again to leave you, as | life breathes as one. |
C:7.14 | to be right, or in control, or to have more or be more. This is | life based on comparison of illusion to illusion. |
C:7.23 | Do not turn your back on the hope offered here, and when new | life flows in to release the old, forget not from where it came. |
C:8.6 | you feel controlled by your feelings, emotions that seem to have a | life of their own, and a body that reacts to all of it in ways that |
C:8.7 | heart and buries stillness deep beneath an ever-changing milieu of | life lived on the surface, as if your own skin were the playground |
C:9.19 | fear. Age has not taken fear from any of you nor made your dream of | life any less of a nightmare. Yet you spare few moments of compassion |
C:9.19 | and one that you would try to tell yourself is not present in your | life. You look to others to feel compassion for, to those living in |
C:9.20 | way you have been able to see to bring relief to the nightmare of a | life of fear. You project fear outward and away from yourself, seeing |
C:9.21 | Think now of one of those you have identified as living the | life of fear you deny yourself. And imagine that you could bring this |
C:9.23 | what you do not want and try to replace it with its opposite. Your | life is thus spent in struggling against what you have for what you |
C:9.23 | need, and so make yourself continuously needy. You thus spend your | life trying to fulfill your needs. For most of you, this trying takes |
C:9.23 | you, this trying takes on the form of work and you spend your entire | life working to meet your needs and those of the ones you love. What |
C:9.23 | needs and those of the ones you love. What would you do with your | life if you had no needs to meet? What would you do with your life if |
C:9.23 | your life if you had no needs to meet? What would you do with your | life if you had no fear? These questions are the same. |
C:9.25 | of this insane idea’s validity. It is your proof as well that a | life of fear is warranted. How could you not fear for the safety of a |
C:9.26 | relationship your species itself would cease to be, in fact, all | life would end. Of course you must help your sister and brother, for |
C:9.32 | of use be one and the same? This insanity makes the purpose of your | life seem to be one of usefulness. The more your body can be of use |
C:9.39 | time here has not been in vain. You know that whatever else your | life seems to be for, if on your deathbed you have not found what you |
C:9.39 | in dark despair and fear. You will have no hope for what lies beyond | life, for you will have found no hope in life. |
C:9.39 | hope for what lies beyond life, for you will have found no hope in | life. |
C:9.44 | mistreatment. These, like the larger examples of your daily | life gone awry, are but demonstrations of internal desires taken to a |
C:10.5 | hurdle to overcome. As you observe the body and dare to think of | life without it, you again and again encounter its reality. When its |
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 body, or do |
C:10.17 | This observation will help to put the responsibility of your | life back into your hands, where it belongs. You are not helpless, |
C:10.19 | heavy-hearted rather than light-hearted and gay. Being serious about | life is a major strategy of the separated self, which recognizes its |
C:11.2 | or office walls. You did not create your Self, and yet you make of | life a recreation of yourself and in so doing try to prove that “you” |
C:11.9 | He then will judge you and determine if you should be rewarded for a | life of goodness or punished for a life of evil. He might accept you |
C:11.9 | if you should be rewarded for a life of goodness or punished for a | life of evil. He might accept you back, but He might not. A God such |
C:11.10 | that this was but God’s curse on you, a thing to tempt you to the | life of desperation that you live. But your strongest perception of |
C:12.2 | the same. How could this be the correct answer when this is so? | Life is too complicated to be solved by love. |
C:12.10 | the one contradiction that has created the world you see and the | life you live. Although it is impossible for something to have gone |
C:12.18 | You may very well say, however, that an idea seemed to take on a | life of its own and compel you to do things you might have never |
C:12.19 | an adventurous vacation when brought to fruition might reshape the | life of the one participating in it, it would not change who that |
C:12.19 | he was born into. All that would change would be the shape of his | life, the things that would happen within it, perhaps the places in |
C:12.19 | that would be part of it. In short, the external aspects of the | life. |
C:12.20 | From the idea of separation came the idea of an external aspect of | life. Before the idea of the separation, there was no such thing— |
C:12.20 | fear they would not exist, so too is it with the external aspect of | life. Without the original idea of separation, the external aspect of |
C:12.20 | Without the original idea of separation, the external aspect of | life would not exist. Just as fear is not real although it seems to |
C:12.21 | did this idea of separation. But just as your ideas do not take on a | life of their own even though they at times seem to, this idea as |
C:12.22 | the idea of separation seemed to bring about a completely reshaped | life, a destiny different than that which had already been written. |
C:12.22 | and could not proceed in reality but only in the external aspect of | life that preceded it. The idea of separation changed nothing in |
C:14.1 | The purpose of the | life you share here with your brothers and your sisters has been to |
C:14.5 | creator would create a world in which the highest achievement of the | life upon it would be to leave it in order to gain life? What creator |
C:14.5 | of the life upon it would be to leave it in order to gain | life? What creator would create a world not meant to exist in |
C:14.5 | would create a world not meant to exist in harmony? Harmony is | life. What creator would create a temporary life and hold eternal |
C:14.5 | in harmony? Harmony is life. What creator would create a temporary | life and hold eternal life as a reward for death? |
C:14.5 | is life. What creator would create a temporary life and hold eternal | life as a reward for death? |
C:14.11 | to see its continuation without change as the major goal of your | life. Without it, life would not be worth living, and so it was |
C:14.11 | without change as the major goal of your life. Without it, | life would not be worth living, and so it was necessary to retain it |
C:14.20 | must remain afraid of the great deceiver. Whether they call it | life or death, it is still the same. It is the chance that cannot be |
C:14.23 | purpose of giving you something to look forward to, a reward for a | life lived according to your own rules, a reward to be gained by some |
C:14.31 | make special? All that is lost is specialness. This is the view of | life you cannot imagine bringing about, or bringing joy in its |
C:15.1 | desire to give and receive specialness is the driving desire of your | life, and the world you see but reflects this desire. Love’s opposite |
C:15.4 | here at all? For this is indeed the point you have made of your | life. |
C:15.10 | that will not leave behind your brothers and your sisters to a | life of suffering and of sin. |
C:15.12 | that knows neither specialness nor separation. In this choice lies | life eternal. |
C:16.5 | Life in prison and a body condemned to death is what judgment does to | |
C:16.15 | miraculously work in the future. You have nothing but evidence of a | life of unhappiness and despair, where occasional moments of joy or |
C:16.15 | that you love out of the many that you do not are all that make your | life worth living. You think that to be asked to give up the caution, |
C:16.15 | people 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:16.24 | give up your power to be who you are and think it is just the way | life is. You give away your power and then bow down to those whom you |
C:16.25 | good as you may want to be, you would still go meekly through your | life trying to comply with rules of God and man with thought of some |
C:18.4 | you have changed the nature of the universe and made it possible for | life to exist separately and alone with no relationship, no |
C:18.8 | chain and your Self among those who comprise it, and imagine the | life that you experience now taking place much like that you would |
C:18.13 | desire to know from which all ideas are born, in order to give it | life. |
C:19.5 | fiction to you, realize that you accept much in all areas of your | life, from that of religion to science itself, that sounds like |
C:19.13 | state. You must think in terms of “I” and “them,” “death and | life,” “good and evil.” This is thought. Thought occurs in words, and |
C:19.15 | not even my experience. If this were so, all of those who read of my | life and words would have learned what I learned from my experience. |
C:19.19 | of light. It is a bit like traveling backward, or the review of | life that some experience after death. In order to remember unity you |
C:19.20 | to do before. While it is, in a sense, a request to review your | life, it is the last such review that will be required before letting |
C:20.4 | is over, and your identity no longer stands in form but flows from | life itself. Your beauty is the gathering of the atoms, the order in |
C:20.10 | From here your | life becomes imaginal, a dream that requires you not to leave your |
C:20.12 | the source of all beginnings, the kernel and the wholeness of all | life. The whole exists untroubled by what it will be. It is. |
C:20.47 | for your belief in your inability to effect change within your own | life and certainly within the greater life of the universe. You must |
C:20.47 | effect change within your own life and certainly within the greater | life of the universe. You must understand that when you think of your |
C:20.47 | universe. You must understand that when you think of your personal | life, personal concerns, personal relationships, you are separating |
C:20.47 | its scope. It is as if you have cordoned off a little section of | life and said, “These are the things that relate to my existence and |
C:22.1 | these functions are all prescribed to be for certain parts of your | life and for certain times that you deem appropriate. Please assure |
C:22.7 | crosses that of others, where you encounter situations in your daily | life, where you experience those things that cause you to feel or |
C:22.19 | tell a story or report on events that have taken place within your | life. You personalize. You are likely to report on what a certain set |
C:22.20 | Begin to imagine | life passing through you rather than getting stopped for examination |
C:23.2 | While it is your nature to seek for more, it is also the nature of | life to exist in relationship and to become known through |
C:23.2 | through relationship is not a “second best” situation. It is how | life is. It is how love is. |
C:23.3 | each other’s sentences. You know the other would lay down his or her | life for you, rise to any occasion of your need, share your every |
C:23.24 | These learning opportunities call for a period of engagement with | life. Many of you will have begun to experience unlearning |
C:23.24 | Course may have led you to turn inward and attempt to disengage from | life. A period of engagement with life cannot be avoided, however, |
C:23.24 | and attempt to disengage from life. A period of engagement with | life cannot be avoided, however, and your attempts to avoid it will |
C:23.29 | of what another would teach? Of lessons another would select? Your | life must become your teacher, and you its devoted pupil. Here is a |
C:23.29 | for you, a curriculum only you can master. Only your own | life experiences have led to the learning you have accumulated and |
C:23.29 | you have accumulated and translated into beliefs. Only your own | life experiences will reverse the process. |
C:24.4 | unlearning to new learning. These lessons must be accomplished in | life and require an engagement with life. This engagement is a |
C:24.4 | lessons must be accomplished in life and require an engagement with | life. This engagement is a promise, a commitment. It requires |
C:25.1 | Devotion is thus our first lesson in learning how to be engaged in | life during the time of tenderness. |
C:25.3 | You, dear children, have faked your way through much of | life. You have faked confidence when you are uncertain, interest |
C:25.7 | of devotion is a means by which you can purify your engagement with | life and all you encounter within it. Devotion is synonymous with |
C:25.9 | the most basic teaching of this Course and no longer feel duped by | life. All of your contests of will are supported by your contention |
C:25.9 | This anger is re-enacted in thousands of different scenarios in your | life day after day and year after year until you realize and truly |
C:25.13 | emotionally, and spiritually—has kept you from engaging with | life. Being healed and recognizing your own state of being healed is |
C:25.17 | is what occurs when the whole Self is involved in the love of | life. There are no “parts” of the Self fractioned off and holding |
C:25.18 | many of the things you have been concerned about previously. Your | life may actually seem to have less purpose. You may begin to wonder |
C:25.19 | and habits that have occupied you, will not accompany you into your | life of love. These you will leave behind. |
C:25.20 | need will arise as you realize that you can take no credit for your | life. Wanting to take credit is of the ego, and at this stage the |
C:25.24 | is so. You will also soon realize why this time of engagement with | life is necessary. Experience is necessary to complete the cycle of |
C:25.25 | Being fully engaged with | life while taking the time for discernment is uncommon. Putting |
C:25.25 | stillness, activity before rest, is seen as synonymous with a full | life. We must, therefore, speak a bit of what a full life is. |
C:25.25 | with a full life. We must, therefore, speak a bit of what a full | life is. |
C:26.1 | It is often spoken of with some amazement that I lived a short | life, preached for only a small part of it, traveled not very far, |
C:26.1 | dies young. You each have some notion of what you believe a full | life to be. For some of you it would include marriage and children, |
C:26.1 | or financial security. Most of you will think of having a long | life. |
C:26.3 | Few recognize the tragedy in the | life of a person, except in instances of great dichotomy, perhaps |
C:26.3 | in instances of great dichotomy, perhaps best expressed in the | life of the tragic hero. This observance of tragedy in life occurs |
C:26.3 | in the life of the tragic hero. This observance of tragedy in | life occurs only when the observation is also made of the greatness, |
C:26.3 | the observation is also made of the greatness, the glory, in the | life. Without the recognition of the glory of life, there is no |
C:26.3 | the glory, in the life. Without the recognition of the glory of | life, there is no recognition of tragedy until the life has ended. In |
C:26.3 | of the glory of life, there is no recognition of tragedy until the | life has ended. In contrast, in the life of the tragic hero, |
C:26.3 | recognition of tragedy until the life has ended. In contrast, in the | life of the tragic hero, excluding those who are posthumously given |
C:26.4 | Again I offer my | life as the example life and reiterate the message expressed in A |
C:26.4 | Again I offer my life as the example | life and reiterate the message expressed in A Course in Miracles: The |
C:26.7 | described your purpose here. To have no meaning to attach to your | life is the tragedy you see within it and attempt to keep hidden from |
C:26.7 | the fall, for if you were to attempt to assign the meaning to your | life that you think it should have, a fall would surely await you, at |
C:26.7 | in your imaginings. You are thus caught in a double bind, living a | life you feel is devoid of meaning and letting fear keep you from |
C:26.8 | This is what we now leave behind as we seek to become involved with | life. I say we because I am with you and will not leave your side. I |
C:26.8 | links us in oneness and glory once again. I say we because we are | life. I say we because we cannot live love apart from one another. |
C:26.9 | as meaning is due you through no effort of your own. Scenes of your | life play through your mind that “prove” that you are neither |
C:26.9 | mind that “prove” that you are neither inherently happy, nor your | life inherently meaningful. Your reliance on these scenes and |
C:26.11 | not long stated that if you knew what would bring meaning to your | life you would surely do it? Have you not long wished to know your |
C:26.12 | is you have been doing? Have you not grown weary of what passes for | life in your world? Have you not wished you could throw out all the |
C:26.18 | you are ready for the next step, the step of being engaged with | life. The step of living from love. And I assure you, there is no |
C:26.24 | left but that you long for, believing that you know it not. Your | life here is much like a search for your story. Where will this |
C:26.24 | table of contents, or at least a brief outline. Where does your | life fit in the larger picture? And yet, you realize that—like |
C:26.25 | This viewing of your | life as a story is what you do. You spend each day in review or |
C:26.25 | knew your place in the pattern of creation from the outset. A full | life is quite simply a fulfillment of that thought and that pattern. |
C:27.1 | errors lie. For what quest can be fulfilled when the only answer to | life seems to be death? This is why and how my death and resurrection |
C:27.7 | your concerns about concentration on the self will end. | Life is not a matter of self versus other. Life is a matter of |
C:27.7 | on the self will end. Life is not a matter of self versus other. | Life is a matter of relationship. Life is not a matter of human |
C:27.7 | not a matter of self versus other. Life is a matter of relationship. | Life is not a matter of human versus divine, but a matter of |
C:27.7 | but a matter of relationship between the human and the divine. | Life is not a matter of one living thing versus another, but of the |
C:27.11 | and you matter as an interactive part of the relationship that is | life. You are already accomplished as who you are. All is |
C:27.21 | You are ready now, and all that will you prevent you from living a | life of love is unwillingness to do so. There is only one remaining |
C:29.1 | is the meaning of which we speak when we ask for a commitment to | life that requires your attention. It is both a request for focus and |
C:29.2 | cannot bring the learning you have done here into an engagement with | life and not realize the true meaning of service, or in contrast, the |
C:29.9 | an arch of golden light beneath a rainbow vibrant with the colors of | life. Life, not death, assures your approach. God Himself will guide |

C:29.10 | thus been glorified and made to seem as if it is the proper use of a | life. And yet, as your Father’s child, your work is as His. Your work |
C:29.11 | Many of you think of | life itself as toil. There is much you need to do just to stay alive, |
C:29.11 | the hand-made. While this is neither good nor bad, this attitude of | life as toil is part of your rebellion against ideas of service. You |
C:29.13 | perception of it. Your schedule is just another way of saying your | life, and an alternative view of how you look at your life, when seen |
C:29.13 | of saying your life, and an alternative view of how you look at your | life, when seen thus, is absolutely necessary. |
C:29.14 | No wholeness will be possible for you while you look at | life in terms of schedules, plans, time-tables, or things to get |
C:29.14 | wholeness will be possible for you while you compartmentalize your | life into designated pieces giving yourself time for work and time |
C:29.14 | for work and time for leisure and seeing them not as the same thing. | Life is life. Life is. As love is. |
C:29.14 | and time for leisure and seeing them not as the same thing. Life is | life. Life is. As love is. |
C:29.14 | for leisure and seeing them not as the same thing. Life is life. | Life is. As love is. |
C:29.15 | Life is service to God. God is service to life. You are God in life. | |
C:29.15 | Life is service to God. God is service to | life. You are God in life. Thus you are both life and service to |
C:29.15 | Life is service to God. God is service to life. You are God in | life. Thus you are both life and service to life, both God and |
C:29.15 | God. God is service to life. You are God in life. Thus you are both | life and service to life, both God and service to God. All of the |
C:29.15 | to life. You are God in life. Thus you are both life and service to | life, both God and service to God. All of the vast universe was |
C:29.15 | All of the vast universe was created the same: to live and to serve | life, to be of God and be of service to God. To be served and to |
C:29.16 | accentuated this manner of functioning, but it did not create it. | Life exists in service to itself. This could also be stated thus: |
C:29.16 | Life exists in service to itself. This could also be stated thus: | Life exists in relationship. Relationship is the interaction within |
C:29.26 | what chance encounter, what decision might have changed your | life? What should you have done that you didn’t? What might you do in |
C:30.1 | they not be? And yet how seldom are you fully present for your own | life, your own Self, your own being. If you were fully aware of your |
C:30.2 | can one be distracted from oneself? And yet you are. Many go through | life searching for self-definition, self-actualization. Where are |
C:30.6 | the true Self, the known Self, in all its glorious relationship with | life. All matter is born and dies. All life is forever. The known |
C:30.6 | glorious relationship with life. All matter is born and dies. All | life is forever. The known Self realizes this and begins to act in |
C:30.7 | foundation of fear, a fear that stemmed from the belief in finite | life, in being born into a body and dying to the body. The person who |
C:30.7 | realizing relationship with the infinite instead of the finite, with | life as opposed to matter. |
C:30.13 | now of the created form, the body. When the heart stops beating, | life is seen to be over. Are you thus your heart? Or can you not see |
C:31.9 | All over the world people of good faith fight to save even one | life. Each life is irreplaceable and no one argues this point, yet |
C:31.9 | the world people of good faith fight to save even one life. Each | life is irreplaceable and no one argues this point, yet you allow |
C:31.19 | of learning who you are. Everything that has ever happened in your | life has happened as a learning device to help you remember who you |
C:31.30 | something or someone other than yourself. At certain times of your | life you state this seeking you are doing quite clearly, and it is |
C:32.1 | form in which a teacher arrives. It can truly be said that all of | life is your teacher. There is not one aspect of it that is not |
T1:2.20 | elementary in relation to a sunset, its application to all areas of | life will at first seem quite demanding. But what is elementary |
T1:3.1 | to the re-experiencing of all that you believe has shaped your | life. These opportunities are but the forerunners of new learning. |
T1:3.18 | would have on the rest of the world. If you were to ask for a | life to be spared, how would you know it was not that person’s “time |
T1:4.21 | of memory. These are opportunities to re-experience the lessons your | life has brought you. You will experience the same lessons in the |
T1:5.5 | This fear of all and nothingness is fear of God, fear of | Life, fear of Creation, fear of Self. For there is only all and |
T1:5.7 | The whole of | life could in fact be seen as the illusion of an in-between you have |
T1:6.3 | choosing union. With this definition, you can see how your | life can become a prayer. This does not negate the fact that a prayer |
T1:6.5 | of which we speak nor one that can reasonably be called a way of | life or likened to the art of thought. Prayers such as these emanate |
T1:8.2 | buried. As who I Am, I resurrected. “I am the resurrection and the | life.” What I was in life was the manifestation, in form, of the Will |
T1:8.2 | I resurrected. “I am the resurrection and the life.” What I was in | life was the manifestation, in form, of the Will of God. Thus too |
T1:8.2 | of the Will of God. Thus too have you been. God is the giver of | life, thus life is God’s Will. But with my resurrection, which was |
T1:8.2 | Will of God. Thus too have you been. God is the giver of life, thus | life is God’s Will. But with my resurrection, which was accomplished |
T1:8.2 | with my resurrection, which was accomplished for all, the meaning of | life, the reality of life, changed, though you have known this not. |
T1:8.2 | which was accomplished for all, the meaning of life, the reality of | life, changed, though you have known this not. The great experiment |
T1:8.2 | though you have known this not. For the resurrection and | life are now one and the same. |
T1:8.4 | two thousand years without your comprehension of it. The nature of | life changed with the resurrection. I am the resurrection and the |
T1:8.4 | of life changed with the resurrection. I am the resurrection and the | life. So are you. |
T1:8.5 | suffer the separation. Even though the resurrection returned not | life to the form I once occupied, it returned me to you in the form |
T1:8.5 | death were consequent with the Word as the Word is I Am, the Word is | Life Eternal. My resurrection brought about the Word made flesh in |
T1:8.5 | in your human terms of evolution? You are the resurrected and the | life. |
T1:8.10 | made it necessary for woman to join with man in order for new | life to come forth, is but another example of how your memory of |
T1:8.12 | is called upon now as the myth to end all myths for in this example | life alone is the key to the riddle provided. |
T1:8.13 | Blessed Virgin Mary’s resurrection in form that the new pattern of | life is revealed. |
T1:8.14 | The new pattern of | life is the ability to resurrect in form. The ability to resurrect in |
T1:8.14 | is the ability to resurrect in form. The ability to resurrect in | life. The ability to resurrect now. |
T1:8.15 | Thus is the glory that is yours returned to you in | life rather than in death. |
T1:9.4 | have died without the joining that occurred within, becomes new | life. |
T1:9.5 | Now you are asked to carry new | life not in the womb but in the united mind and heart. |
T1:9.13 | dormant for periods of time and then to suddenly be called back to | life through some event or situation? What was this event or |
T1:10.6 | may continue to read for a lifetime. You can continue to experience | life and still carry the Peace of God within you. As you live in |
T2:1.6 | This place is not | life but neither is it death, for even death is not an eternal |
T2:1.6 | It is not a resting place, a place to stop along the journey of | life any more than it is a place at which life stops and death |
T2:1.6 | stop along the journey of life any more than it is a place at which | life stops and death reigns. It is not a point at which you arrive, |
T2:1.8 | feel like a bubble of protection, something that sets you apart from | life and the chaos that seems to reign there. You must realize that |
T2:3.1 | Your | life is already an act of creation. It was created. All of it. It |
T2:3.1 | you. Your work here is to express it. You are far more than your | life here. You created your life here in union with the one mind and |
T2:3.1 | express it. You are far more than your life here. You created your | life here in union with the one mind and one heart, in union, in |
T2:3.1 | is reflected in the world you see. The only difference between the | life you are living and the life you want lies in your willingness to |
T2:3.1 | you see. The only difference between the life you are living and the | life you want lies in your willingness to express who you are. |
T2:3.2 | be no need for form if there had been no desire for expression. | Life is the desire to express outwardly what exists within. What I |
T2:3.4 | to see the changes that your learning is capable of bringing to your | life. You have felt the peace and love of the embrace. You know that |
T2:3.4 | and learning something that is of relevance even within the daily | life you currently move through. Now you must fully recognize the |
T2:3.7 | and on-going expansion of the same thought of love that brought | life into existence. The seeds of creation exist in everything and |
T2:3.8 | and on-going expansion of the same thought of love that brought | life into existence. Christ is your identity in the broadest sense |
T2:4.1 | all, the alpha and the omega, eternity and infinity. It is not only | life as you know it now, but life in all its aspects. It is life |
T2:4.1 | eternity and infinity. It is not only life as you know it now, but | life in all its aspects. It is life beyond death as well as life |
T2:4.1 | not only life as you know it now, but life in all its aspects. It is | life beyond death as well as life before birth and life during your |
T2:4.1 | now, but life in all its aspects. It is life beyond death as well as | life before birth and life during your time here. It is all one |
T2:4.1 | aspects. It is life beyond death as well as life before birth and | life during your time here. It is all one because it is all from the |
T2:4.7 | This applies directly to your reaction to all that occurs within your | life. Let us look now at your reaction to the idea put forth earlier |
T2:4.12 | tells you that if you had but acted earlier you would have had the | life you’ve dreamed of and maybe it is not too late. This is not |
T2:4.13 | you are is what you are called to do. You are here asked to live a | life as seamless as that of the birds of the air. You are asked to |
T2:4.13 | as seamless as that of the birds of the air. You are asked to live a | life where there is no division between who you are and what you do. |
T2:4.19 | come to think of as an ability. As your old way of responding to | life causes you to struggle or resist and the new way of thinking |
T2:5.1 | In order for you to more fully understand the | life that this Course calls you to, we must also talk of another |
T2:7.2 | your control, those who can influence the course of your day or your | life in ways you would not choose. Others represent the accidents |
T2:7.7 | most difficult belief of all to integrate into the living of your | life. Each time another thwarts you, you will be tempted to believe |
T2:7.10 | for change. Certainly there will continue to be things within your | life that are in need of change. As was stated in the beginning of |
T2:9.4 | indebted as you feel grateful for the meeting of needs. When your | life is running smoothly and needs are being continuously met, you |
T2:9.7 | are like puzzle pieces that fit together. Other beings that share | life with you on this planet are not concerned with needs or need |
T2:10.14 | ways. It is the voice of love, the voice of creation, the voice of | life. It is the voice of certainty that allows you to move through |
T2:10.16 | about learning as you have perceived of it rather than learning from | life. |
T2:10.17 | does it make to your concepts of learning when you think of | life as your coursework? Would you be any more willing to let another |
T2:10.18 | lessons? While you do not think of them as such you do not think of | life as your learning ground. You still think of lessons as being |
T2:10.18 | still think of lessons as being about specific subject matter. When | life does not go as you have planned, you feel as if your chosen path |
T2:10.18 | you. You often feel a sense of loss and rarely one of gain. Unless | life goes the way you have intended for it to go, you do not feel |
T2:10.19 | Christ in you needs not for you to choose a lesson plan, but to let | life itself be your chosen way of learning. |
T2:11.1 | you are a being who exists in relationship into the living of your | life. |
T2:11.12 | yourself the ego has put forth would have been a true image. But as | life cannot exist apart from relationship, this choice was not |
T2:11.13 | existence? While this illustration is not attempting to say that | life does not exist apart from the body, it is attempting to reveal, |
T2:11.13 | there is a condition under which you are here and able to experience | life as a separate being. That condition is relationship and |
T2:12.12 | all you are in relationship with, is how you are called to live your | life and the call you are asked to sound to all your brothers and |
T2:13.6 | here. Remember that the seriousness with which you once looked at | life is of the ego. Drape your persona in a mantle of peace and joy. |
T3:1.6 | You who have spent most of your | life representing the ego have but given a face to illusion and made |
T3:1.12 | help you fulfill. I can do this because I accomplished this, both in | life and in all time and time beyond time, making you, along with me, |
T3:1.13 | able to represent the truth and, in so doing, we bring the truth to | life and life to the truth. |
T3:1.13 | represent the truth and, in so doing, we bring the truth to life and | life to the truth. |
T3:3.3 | ago gave up trying. Most of you fall somewhere in between, living a | life full of good intentions and effort and being surprised neither |
T3:3.7 | that exist 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 |
T3:3.8 | You cannot think your way to the new | life that calls to you. You can only get there by being who you are |
T3:4.5 | 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 error was |
T3:5.7 | an end to pain and suffering and a beginning of resurrection and new | life. It was a gift meant to empty the world of the ego-self and to |
T3:5.7 | purpose worthy of God’s son, the crucifixion would have ended | life in form and returned the sons of man to the formless. Instead, |
T3:5.8 | means 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 |
T3:6.1 | the same as the “rewards” you seek—some of you from God, some from | life, some from fate. No matter who it is you think is in charge of |
T3:6.2 | have just traveled, discussing the reign of God and the meaning of | life and death. But this is one of the key ideas that will keep you |
T3:6.2 | and your own self. It is an idea that has been transferred to all of | life, much as the idea of an unlovable self was transferred into all |
T3:6.2 | as the idea of an unlovable self was transferred into all areas of | life without your realization. |
T3:7.8 | Thus has been the best of what you call | life within the illusion. |
T3:8.11 | looked for was found. If what was looked for were means of making | life easier, why not the idea of machinery and tools that would seem |
T3:9.6 | experiences have eased the fears of many but made many more long for | life after death rather than life. You who have followed me beyond |
T3:9.6 | of many but made many more long for life after death rather than | life. You who have followed me beyond the walls of the house of |
T3:9.6 | are now called to begin the act of revealing and creating anew the | life of heaven on earth. |
T3:10.1 | or known. Thus are more practical lessons needed in regard to the | life of the body that you now will let serve our cause of creating |
T3:10.2 | an exercise in forgetting. As often as is possible within your daily | life, I ask you to forget as much of what you have learned as you are |
T3:10.7 | time of unlearning what the past but seemed to teach you. Now, while | life may seem much unchanged in its outward appearance, it is up to |
T3:10.16 | we have called these lessons in forgetting practical lessons for the | life of the body. They are lessons that will soon be translated in |
T3:12.9 | The | life of the physical self became a life of suffering and strife only |
T3:12.9 | The life of the physical self became a | life of suffering and strife only because the physical or personal |
T3:13.4 | have been made now, giving you the beginnings of a vision of a | life in physical form that will not include the very temptations we |
T3:13.9 | imagine the truth of these words really being represented in the | life you live here. This you must now do. You must represent the |
T3:13.9 | must now do. You must represent the truth of these words with your | life. |
T3:14.1 | physical experience. You may live a more peaceful and meaningful | life, but you will not become the savior I ask you to be, or the |
T3:14.2 | this period of translation, rather than cursing your station in | life and feeling badly that you do not enjoy the health, wealth or |
T3:14.2 | yourself on desiring less and be more content living a simple | life. If you have felt a lack of respect you may feel that what |
T3:14.5 | at now is that you but think you are discontent with much of your | life. As you begin to dwell in the House of Truth and see with the |
T3:14.5 | Truth and see with the eyes of love, you will see far less about the | life you lead that you would change than you would imagine. You fear |
T3:14.6 | love, you will be much more likely to see love everywhere within the | life you currently live than to see the need to change your life |
T3:14.6 | the life you currently live than to see the need to change your | life completely in order to find love. You who are worried about the |
T3:14.7 | This is precisely why you must choose not to keep the | life of discomfort caused by perceived illness, the life of scarcity |
T3:14.7 | not to keep the life of discomfort caused by perceived illness, the | life of scarcity caused by perceived lack, the lack of stature caused |
T3:14.9 | You will clearly see all of the choices that throughout your | life have been made in love and made of you a person you would not be |
T3:14.9 | You will also clearly see all of the choices that throughout your | life were caused by fear and how little consequence they had in |
T3:14.13 | This is why you have been assured that what you are called to is a | life so new that you cannot even imagine it. Imagine not the past and |
T3:15.1 | children to give them the chance to begin again. At all stages of | life new friendships are formed and the relationship with each new |
T3:15.1 | and the births of new family members form new configurations in a | life. Nature begins anew each spring. |
T3:16.4 | more peaceful and free of fear than you have ever been. While your | life may not have changed in ways that you would like and while its |
T3:16.4 | that you feel you need in order to reflect, within your daily | life, the new Self you have become. |
T3:16.8 | in patterns that have you attempting to “accomplish” set goals in | life. The key to resisting these temptations is not resistance at all |
T3:19.7 | Because the spiritual | life has so often been linked with celibacy I will mention sexual |
T3:21.15 | aspect is based upon your family of origin, its history, and on the | life you have led since your birth. The self-image aspect is based |
T3:21.24 | more eloquently or who are better examples of a good and saintly | life are those who will lead the way for others to follow. Do not |
T3:22.1 | ideas may not seem to have much relevance or relationship to the | life you currently live. While you may be happy to learn that you are |
T3:22.1 | in what direction living by the truth will take you, for surely your | life must change. The very precepts put forth within this Course, |
T3:22.1 | seem as evidence that you will no longer be allowed the “separate” | life, or private life that you have lived. |
T3:22.1 | that you will no longer be allowed the “separate” life, or private | life that you have lived. |
T3:22.3 | be otherwise. You may bring this beauty to any number of walks of | life, to what you currently do or to something you have always dreamt |
T3:22.15 | Do not bring this attitude into your new thought system or your new | life. If you are tired of the old, be willing to be done with the old. |
T4:1.7 | or opportunity, they might easily choose not to learn. The nature of | life, however, is one of learning, and if they do not learn what is |
T4:1.14 | chosen people. If the chosen time had been two thousand years ago, | life would have been different since then. If Jesus Christ were the |
T4:1.14 | been different since then. If Jesus Christ were the chosen one, his | life would have changed the world. If the Israelites were the chosen |
T4:2.21 | that exists with you, including the days that make up your | life in time and space. Observing what is unites you with the present |
T4:2.22 | your own direct relationship with God, or the possibility that your | life is a direct experience of the pattern of unity or oneness that |
T4:2.23 | exists with the unseen and even the seen. You have moved through | life believing you have relationships with family and friends and |
T4:2.23 | of time, but still essentially seeing yourself moving through | life alone, with few sustaining connections save for special |
T4:2.23 | or of other occurrences that are likely to have an impact on your | life or on your part of the world. But unless you believe in the |
T4:2.28 | differentiated me from my brothers and sisters at the time of my | life on earth. Because my state of consciousness, a state of |
T4:3.5 | the displacement of the original intent was so complete that each | life has begun with fear and proceeded from this beginning |
T4:3.13 | state of a being of form, and at the same time to hang on to | life; not realizing that what exists in form does not have to be |
T4:3.13 | to its natural state of love, is one of unity and everlasting | life. |
T4:3.14 | The idea of everlasting | life in form has seemed a curse to some, a miracle to others. Death |
T4:3.14 | a miracle to others. Death comes as destruction to some, as new | life to others. Either way is but your choice. Your attachment to |
T4:3.14 | life to others. Either way is but your choice. Your attachment to | life has kept you alive in form. Your attachment to death has kept |
T4:3.15 | The promise of | life everlasting was not an empty promise. It is a promise that has |
T4:4.1 | Where there is a pattern of life-everlasting, there is everlasting | life. Means and end are one, cause and effect the same. |
T4:4.2 | as rest. You do not realize that your nature, and the nature of your | life, like that of all around you, is governed by seasons natural to |
T4:4.6 | What my | life demonstrated was a capacity for inheritance not based upon |
T4:4.6 | demonstrated was a capacity for inheritance not based upon death. My | life, death and resurrection revealed the power of inheritance, the |
T4:4.7 | There is no discontinuity within creation. Like begets like. | Life begets life. Thus is revealed the pattern of life-everlasting. |
T4:4.7 | is no discontinuity within creation. Like begets like. Life begets | life. Thus is revealed the pattern of life-everlasting. |
T4:4.10 | a lifetime—be it a lifetime of twenty or fifty or ninety years. | Life has continuously been prolonged without a substantial change in |
T4:4.10 | been prolonged without a substantial change in the nature of | life. To think of living on and on as you have lived your life thus |
T4:4.10 | nature of life. To think of living on and on as you have lived your | life thus far would not appeal to many of you. Those aged and |
T4:4.10 | of you. Those aged and contemplating death might wish for prolonged | life, but many of these same welcome death as the end to suffering |
T4:4.10 | as the end to suffering and strife. To continue on endlessly with | life as it has been would only relegate more and more to lives not |
T4:4.12 | while you still abide in form is to be fully aware that you have | life everlasting. |
T4:4.13 | Being fully aware that you have | life everlasting is totally different than having faith in an |
T4:4.13 | faith would not be necessary. Faith will become unnecessary, as | life everlasting becomes known to you. |
T4:4.14 | True vision sees life-everlasting where perception but saw finite | life and mortal bodies. Once vision and Christ-consciousness has |
T4:4.18 | it will take on the nature of Christ-consciousness, of which my | life was the example life. To sustain Christ-consciousness in form is |
T4:4.18 | the nature of Christ-consciousness, of which my life was the example | life. To sustain Christ-consciousness in form is creation of the new. |
T4:4.18 | Christ-consciousness in form is creation of the new. My one example | life could not sustain Christ-consciousness for those who came after |
T4:5.3 | and thus this one energy existing in everything, and creating the | life in everything, is Christ-consciousness. It is also what we have |
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 seemingly |
T4:5.12 | this now and you will see that it is true. You hoped to live a good | life and at the end of that life to know God. Your vision of the |
T4:5.12 | it is true. You hoped to live a good life and at the end of that | life to know God. Your vision of the afterlife was one in which God |
T4:5.13 | in the glory that is yours, that determines the way in which your | life will continue. The same is true right now! For this is the time |
T4:6.3 | and some are not. Those who believe that life-everlasting includes | life on other worlds can create a scenario in which it appears that |
T4:6.3 | and the one life-giving energy that unites us all will but continue | life as it has been but in different form. The realization of unity |
T4:7.8 | one guided by love and thus be a joyous choice and ensure a joyous | life. These choices will change the world. |
T4:8.1 | express love in physical form, and so began this experience of human | life. You are now beginning to be able to understand that it was God |
T4:8.2 | It was one choice made in unity. It was the choice of all for | life everlasting and life ever-expressing. It was the choice for |
T4:8.2 | made in unity. It was the choice of all for life everlasting and | life ever-expressing. It was the choice for creation, for creation is |
T4:9.5 | you ready to change and able to change in certain ways that make | life easier or more peaceful, but certainly not able to realize the |
T4:10.2 | for perhaps the first time, that learning is what your entire | life has been about. You cannot imagine how you will come to know |
T4:10.3 | path of learning, you have come to see everything in your | life as exactly what it has been—a means of learning. You have |
T4:10.3 | on your Self, but you did, in a sense, study every aspect of your | life for the lessons contained therein. So how, you might ask, do you |
T4:10.4 | In keeping with your new self-centered focus on what | life has had to teach you, you have also seen your relationships as |
T4:12.12 | who spoke of how he knew, as soon as he was content within the | life of the monastery, that it was time to once again move out into |
D:1.2 | In going forth with the vision of unity you become as I was during | life. You “receive” and you “give” from the well of the spirit. You |
D:2.1 | contrary to the attitudes and actions with which you have led your | life thus far. You were told within A Course of Love that willingness |
D:2.2 | you are asked to refuse to accept who you are not and the ways of | life that allowed you to live within the world as a false self. |
D:2.6 | here, an example that illustrates only one aspect of the learner’s | life, an inability to claim the new identity could at times be |
D:2.14 | Many of you have believed that the more details of | life you have within your control, the more likely you are to control |
D:2.14 | outcome. Others of you have believed that the more details of your | life that are kept under the control of a benevolent system, such as |
D:3.2 | This call has always sounded. It is not a death knell but a call to | life. It is not of the past or the future but of the eternal now. It |
D:3.3 | It calls to you and asks you to invest your | life with the very purpose you have always desired. You are not |
D:3.3 | purpose you have always desired. You are not purposeless now. Your | life is not meaningless. You are the ushers, the pioneers of the new. |
D:3.6 | You learned from the contrast of love and fear, sickness and health, | life and death. In this time of Christ, such learning is no longer |
D:3.7 | together to do is to begin to declassify all the various aspects of | life that were needed in the time of learning. This is why we began |
D:3.10 | be seeking now for replacements for that which formerly ordered your | life. Thus we will speak of these replacements. |
D:3.20 | As the system of nature supports the | life of many different trees, the trees are all still of one |
D:4.5 | crimes of some. Think instead of prison simply becoming a way of | life for those who are incarcerated there. Each of you has had an |
D:4.7 | as an actual prisoner, when released from prison, must adjust to a | life in which his or her actions are no longer restricted |
D:4.7 | restricted artificially, you must adjust to your new freedom. Your | life has been artificially restricted by the prison you have created |
D:4.7 | yet those who are imprisoned often become so acclimated to prison | life, that life on the “outside” is no longer seen as desirable. How |
D:4.7 | who are imprisoned often become so acclimated to prison life, that | life on the “outside” is no longer seen as desirable. How can this be? |
D:4.8 | A | life of artificial structure is all any of you have known. An |
D:4.8 | structure is all any of you have known. An internally structured | life will quickly replace the life of the inmate if you will but let |
D:4.8 | have known. An internally structured life will quickly replace the | life of the inmate if you will but let it do so. Even those who |
D:4.8 | system you have made are free to follow an internally structured | life to a greater extent than many of those who call themselves free. |
D:4.11 | idea of a purposeless existence, a universe with no divine order, a | life in which you are at the mercy of fate. The new idea you are |
D:4.11 | purposeful, that the universe exists in divine order, and that your | life is part of that divine design. |
D:4.12 | the sky, from the body you seem to inhabit to the animal and plant | life that exists around you. From the daintiest and most intricately |
D:4.18 | the time of learning. This would be like dwelling on the inmate’s | life as an inmate once he has been freed. Let us simply create a new |
D:4.21 | rejoice in it, just as you would have had you literally spent your | life within a prison’s walls. Breathe the sweet air of freedom. Be |
D:4.23 | own. An authority you must claim before your externally structured | life can become an internally structured life. |
D:4.23 | your externally structured life can become an internally structured | life. |
D:4.24 | of the new be given and received. Become the author of your own | life. Live it as you feel called to live it. |
D:4.26 | hear, protest no more. You cannot keep your prison and have the new | life that you long to have. You may have to examine just what it is |
D:4.29 | or original design. As you have been returned to your Self, now your | life must be returned to where it fits within the divine design, to |
D:4.29 | returned to where it fits within the divine design, to where it is a | life of meaning and purpose. This return is the return of wholeness. |
D:5.8 | you are in truth, the ego does not remain, a separate entity with a | life of its own. No. The ego is gone. Because it was a lie its |
D:5.18 | here. Release through death is no longer the answer. Release through | life is the answer. Release through resurrection is the answer. You |
D:6.20 | What fate may offer is itself an attitude that puts | life at the risk and whim of an external force that has no reality |
D:6.25 | You thus learned to survive rather than to live. You increased the | life span of the human being, but you increased not its capacity for |
D:6.25 | its capacity for true living or true learning. And with the extended | life span came extended reasons for fear, and a physical form that |
D:8.2 | the freedom of not being bound by this constraint. In all of your | life, you can think of no ability you have not achieved through |
D:9.4 | this desire to know who you are in one way or another all of your | life without reaching the place of fulfillment you have sought. Even |
D:11.13 | In going forth with the vision of unity you become as I was during | life. You do not think your way through life, but instead draw your |
D:11.13 | you become as I was during life. You do not think your way through | life, but instead draw your knowing forth from the well of spirit, |
D:11.16 | man among many important men. Those who do so miss the point of the | life of Jesus just as they miss the point of their own lives. Those |
D:12.17 | being insane is true. You think it is perfectly sane to go through | life without knowing anything “beyond a shadow of a doubt,” without |
D:13.3 | yet, be surprising because it will be reversing the insanity of your | life as you have known it thus far. These reversals will be among the |
D:14.5 | with simple questions posed during the course of your normal | life. Questions such as, “What might this situation look like if I |
D:14.12 | birthed. Your forms are complete in the physical sense of sustaining | life. Your form was birthed and you have celebrated many birth “days” |
D:15.2 | are excellent examples to illustrate the principle of movement as | life itself, the idea of lack of movement as lack of life. |
D:15.2 | of movement as life itself, the idea of lack of movement as lack of | life. |
D:15.3 | Life and the movement of being into form is what occurred when God | |
D:15.3 | God “spoke” and the Word came into being. Movement is energy, the | life force of creation and of being, both in unity and in time. By |
D:15.5 | Life is movement through the force of expression. The third principle | |
D:15.10 | of form was seen to predate the animation of that form with | life and spirit? Would this not be consistent with what we attempt to |
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 |
D:15.11 | 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 form is |
D:15.11 | of saying what is true. What is true is eternal life, not temporal | life. There are no degrees of life. One form is not more alive than |
D:15.11 | is true is eternal life, not temporal life. There are no degrees of | life. One form is not more alive than another. All that lives |
D:15.20 | unity as sustenance is to recognize it as that which sustains | life. Sustaining unity or Christ-consciousness is being done with the |
D:16.3 | condition of lack. It is the belief that what animated form with | life did not remain. The belief that in the passing through, a |
D:16.8 | givens. Love, like God, like Creation, is the giver of the givens. | Life was given through the extension and the expression of God, of |
D:Day1.5 | we are talking of simple requirements, requirements of daily | life rather than of eternal life. The requirement asked of you here |
D:Day1.5 | requirements, requirements of daily life rather than of eternal | life. The requirement asked of you here is not to exclude others in |
D:Day1.5 | others in whom you believe and have found a connection to eternal | life, only to accept me as who I am. |
D:Day1.8 | to saying Love is. I am what is. I am the way, the truth, and the | life. |
D:Day1.11 | that this power is of God, whether it be the power of granting | life to grow within the womb, or the power of giving new life to a |
D:Day1.11 | of granting life to grow within the womb, or the power of giving new | life to a limb withered or broken. You may wonder why it should |
D:Day1.15 | not. That you accept that I am he who can lead you beyond your | life of misery to new life matters absolutely. |
D:Day1.15 | that I am he who can lead you beyond your life of misery to new | life matters absolutely. |
D:Day1.16 | you are called to follow, or succeed me. Only in this way can new | life be brought to old. |
D:Day1.20 | The New Testament was the beginning of the new. My | life represented fulfillment of scripture, of all holy writing, of |
D:Day1.29 | I am the secret of succession, the way and the | life, the beginning of the end of the story that is to be fulfilled, |
D:Day2.2 | You have let go the ego, re-viewed your | life, unlearned previous patterns, and now see the difference between |
D:Day2.2 | in moments in which you would desire peace, memories of your | life continue to play within your mind, often still bringing you |
D:Day2.3 | poor choices have been reconciled. You can see the pattern of your | life as clearly now as if a masterful biography had been written of |
D:Day2.3 | this clarity that has brought a new “haunting” to some of you. Your | life is being seen more as a whole now. The parts are fitting |
D:Day2.12 | your judgment. We look for a simple acceptance of the facts of your | life. |
D:Day2.14 | your re-viewing and unlearning of the perceived lessons of your | life. |
D:Day2.16 | This is an example from my own | life, an example the idea of which still plagues many of you. This |
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 who have |
D:Day2.17 | will not walk in my footsteps. Perhaps you will be granted eternal | life, but not until you have suffered as I suffered. This idea would |
D:Day2.18 | As was said within this Course, my | life is the example life. The way in which I have talked of it |
D:Day2.18 | As was said within this Course, my life is the example | life. The way in which I have talked of it recently may have led some |
D:Day2.18 | of it recently may have led some of you to consider it as a symbolic | life rather than an actual life. All of our lives here are symbolic |
D:Day2.18 | some of you to consider it as a symbolic life rather than an actual | life. All of our lives here are symbolic rather than actual. Just as |
D:Day2.18 | story is symbolic rather than actual. This does not mean that my | life did not happen, that it did not occur in time and space, just as |
D:Day2.19 | So let us consider my | life again, just briefly, and let us consider the something more it |
D:Day2.20 | My | life consisted of the same major elements as yours: Birth through |
D:Day2.21 | idea put forth here that until you are aware of who you are, your | life has not literally or symbolically begun. |
D:Day2.22 | It was in awareness of who I Am that my | life took on meaning. It could be argued that this awareness existed |
D:Day2.23 | My mature | life thus began with the recognition of who I Am, as does yours. This |
D:Day2.23 | of who I Am, as does yours. This time was followed by my “example | life,” a life that began with the forty days and forty nights spent |
D:Day2.23 | I Am, as does yours. This time was followed by my “example life,” a | life that began with the forty days and forty nights spent upon the |
D:Day2.23 | of light to darkness, power to the powerless, health to the sick, | life to the dead. My life touched all those willing to be touched, |
D:Day2.23 | power to the powerless, health to the sick, life to the dead. My | life touched all those willing to be touched, changed all those |
D:Day2.23 | space, bury it, so that it need be no more, and demonstrate that new | life follows the choice to end suffering. |
D:Day2.24 | demonstrate that the end of suffering had come, and with it, eternal | life. |
D:Day2.26 | Willingness is now upon humankind. What my | life demonstrated but needs to be demonstrated anew. But this will |
D:Day3.2 | now that this learning was not a choice but only the way you knew | life to be. While the freedom of childhood learning might be seen as |
D:Day3.7 | You may believe a spiritual context for your | life can change your life, make you feel more peaceful, give you |
D:Day3.7 | You may believe a spiritual context for your life can change your | life, make you feel more peaceful, give you comfort of a non-physical |
D:Day3.7 | your mind that these new ideas will change your actions and your | life, your mind that, through increased stillness, will give you more |
D:Day3.7 | of being. You believe having a spiritual context for your | life can, in other words, change your inner life, but are more |
D:Day3.7 | context for your life can, in other words, change your inner | life, but are more skeptical in regard to its ability to affect your |
D:Day3.7 | but are more skeptical in regard to its ability to affect your outer | life; and nowhere are you more skeptical than in regard to money or |
D:Day3.8 | You may believe that having a spiritual context for your | life will assist you in feeling more loved and possibly even assist |
D:Day3.9 | Just posing the idea that having a spiritual context for your | life will assist you in living abundantly will cause you to think, “I |
D:Day3.9 | You might think spirituality can assist you in living a more simple | life and thus a life of limits of which you are more accepting. But |
D:Day3.9 | spirituality can assist you in living a more simple life and thus a | life of limits of which you are more accepting. But given time to |
D:Day3.9 | between the general and specific, thinking of both your own lack in | life and that of those whose lack is more pronounced than your own. |
D:Day3.15 | such as these? How do you accept me when you see me as symbolizing a | life of “godly” poverty, and of calling my followers to abandon their |
D:Day3.22 | greatest limits to what you can accomplish, to how you can live the | life you would choose to live. You may have left behind aspirations |
D:Day3.22 | as one that does not touch upon this aspect of “reality.” The better | life you might attain will be a by-product rather than the effect of |
D:Day3.23 | solid and unrelenting. Not having “enough” is the “reality” of your | life because it was the reality of the learning life. Even if you are |
D:Day3.23 | “reality” of your life because it was the reality of the learning | life. Even if you are one of those others consider lucky, one of |
D:Day3.49 | you are responsible for the abundance or lack of abundance in your | life. That it is you who, by changing your beliefs or your actions, |
D:Day3.60 | Active acceptance is what allows the great transformation from | life as you have known it, to death of that old life, to rebirth of |
D:Day3.60 | transformation from life as you have known it, to death of that old | life, to rebirth of new life. By clinging to some of the old, you |
D:Day3.60 | as you have known it, to death of that old life, to rebirth of new | life. By clinging to some of the old, you prevent its death and you |
D:Day4.7 | that, despite evolution, has not left any of you. You all begin | life without the ability to think in the terms you now associate |
D:Day4.10 | You are here now not to relearn or be taught what | life is all about, not to relearn or be taught the “way things are” |
D:Day4.10 | to relearn or be taught the “way things are” but to discover what | life is all about and to discover the way to remake things as they |
D:Day4.16 | contemplate for a moment what you know about the example left by my | life, you will almost surely realize fairly quickly that my life |
D:Day4.16 | by my life, you will almost surely realize fairly quickly that my | life challenged the world-view of the time and that it is still |
D:Day4.17 | Let me assure you of what you already know, that everything about my | life was purposeful. That challenge was meant then, and continues to |
D:Day4.18 | a call to create a new system. But nowhere in my example | life is such a system found despite all attempts to make it so. |
D:Day4.20 | In the time of learning, however, it was natural that my example | life was seen as something from which to learn. In order to “teach” |
D:Day4.20 | seen as something from which to learn. In order to “teach” what my | life represented to those who did not know me, methods of teaching |
D:Day4.32 | natural state, much like breathing is simply a fact of the natural | life of the body. |
D:Day4.44 | remains unknown, is still what you know you have longed for all your | life. This unknown has been described to you in terms both specific |
D:Day4.44 | you have desired and more. It has been described as the end to the | life of misery you have known and the beginning of new life. And I |
D:Day4.44 | end to the life of misery you have known and the beginning of new | life. And I tell you truly, here is where this new life either begins |
D:Day4.44 | beginning of new life. And I tell you truly, here is where this new | life either begins or is once again delayed. Here is where you say, I |
D:Day4.46 | living from love is. It means that you will resurrect to eternal | life here and now. It means no turning back, no return to fear or |
D:Day6.2 | way partially because to ask you to walk away from your “normal” | life for forty days and forty nights would cause too much anxiety and |
D:Day6.13 | to go about this creative process while remaining embroiled in daily | life—I want to acknowledge the difficulty some of you will seem to |
D:Day6.13 | you will seem to be experiencing even while pointing out to you that | life is life. |
D:Day6.13 | seem to be experiencing even while pointing out to you that life is | life. |
D:Day6.14 | a corresponding desire not to have to focus on the details of daily | life. You may be thinking that the ease so often spoken of in our |
D:Day6.15 | will have to come first, an ability to focus on other than daily | life will have to come first. These are what these continuing |
D:Day6.16 | They will facilitate this by facilitating the acceptance of | life as it is. This is why this dialogue is occurring on the holy |
D:Day6.16 | is occurring on the holy mountain without taking you away from | life as you know it. We are, after all, speaking of the elevation of |
D:Day6.16 | of the elevation of the self of form. This elevation must occur in | life, in your life as it is, rather than in some idealized situation |
D:Day6.16 | of the self of form. This elevation must occur in life, in your | life as it is, rather than in some idealized situation away from what |
D:Day6.16 | than in some idealized situation away from what you consider normal | life. |
D:Day6.17 | our dialogue on the holy mountain while you remain within your | life for the very purpose of not allowing this to happen. |
D:Day6.18 | not have changed or will be changing the very fabric of your daily | life. Changes you feel called to make are not discouraged here. The |
D:Day6.18 | discouraged here. The point being made is simply that removal from | life is not possible or desirable. |
D:Day6.19 | Learning takes the student away from “normal” | life and creates a place for teaching and only calls this place |
D:Day6.19 | and discovery cannot occur in a place set apart from “normal” | life. Believe me when I tell you that the elevation you are currently |
D:Day6.20 | experience. They were temptations of the world, of the normal, daily | life of my time. They were attempts to distract me from my purpose, |
D:Day6.22 | The point here, however, is this: Quit trying to remove yourself from | life! If this were required it would be done! Think not that I cannot |
D:Day6.28 | so the lack of desire you are experiencing for other areas of the | life you still seem so deeply involved in is disturbing to you. Yet |
D:Day6.28 | why should this be disturbing? Why should you continue to desire the | life you have had? |
D:Day6.29 | and yet here are you told not to try to remove yourself from | life. |
D:Day6.30 | you need to be other than yourself in order to navigate your daily | life? What you are being shown here is that you do not. What you are |
D:Day6.30 | intersection, and pass-through. This is it! Right here in your | life as it is right now. |
D:Day6.31 | that you are able to embrace this dialogue and remain in your | life. Realize that this is just what we work toward! This difficulty |
D:Day7.2 | base emotion of fear. Fear is degenerating. Nothing about fear is | life giving. You thus were given life only to have it become |
D:Day7.2 | degenerating. Nothing about fear is life giving. You thus were given | life only to have it become degenerated by fear. |
D:Day7.3 | no longer denying unity. You have replaced fear with love. Love is | life giving and life supporting. There is thus nothing now |
D:Day7.3 | unity. You have replaced fear with love. Love is life giving and | life supporting. There is thus nothing now degenerating about life. |
D:Day7.3 | and life supporting. There is thus nothing now degenerating about | life. |
D:Day7.4 | Life is now supported. Support is thus a condition of the time of | |
D:Day7.5 | because so many of you still do not feel supported in your daily | life. You may feel supported in your spiritual life, in your progress |
D:Day7.5 | in your daily life. You may feel supported in your spiritual | life, in your progress toward full awareness and the elevation of the |
D:Day7.9 | The conditions that affect | life are conditions that affect the body. Yet it was only your mind’s |
D:Day7.12 | you give up the control you have but thought you exerted over your | life and its circumstances, and live in a state of grace, meeting |
D:Day7.14 | an “if this, then that” situation, just because breathing sustains | life? Your access to union sustains real life, the life of the Self, |
D:Day7.14 | because breathing sustains life? Your access to union sustains real | life, the life of the Self, and will come to sustain the elevated |
D:Day7.14 | sustains life? Your access to union sustains real life, the | life of the Self, and will come to sustain the elevated Self of form |
D:Day7.18 | like the conditions of the time of learning, arise from within. | Life has always existed within the conditions of the time of |
D:Day8.1 | as a result of our dialogue concerning not removing yourself from | life. Your whole purpose in pursuing the course of this dialogue may |
D:Day8.1 | at least subconsciously, the idea of removing yourself from normal | life. Even the conditions of the time of acceptance may not have |
D:Day8.2 | If you can’t remove yourself from | life, what choice have you but to join with it? Love it. Love |
D:Day8.2 | enough to accept yourself. Love will transform normal, ordinary, | life into extraordinary life. Loving exactly who you are and where |
D:Day8.2 | Love will transform normal, ordinary, life into extraordinary | life. Loving exactly who you are and where you are in every moment is |
D:Day8.2 | the transformation that will end your desire to remove yourself from | life. All those frustrations you currently feel have a purpose: To |
D:Day8.3 | not like. Do you really think you are being called to accept “normal | life?” Called to accept those conditions that have made you feel |
D:Day8.4 | Realize that your desire for your | life to be different, your desire for your unhappiness to be gone, is |
D:Day8.4 | gone, 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 |
D:Day8.8 | be but of the way you are now. There will be many things within your | life that will take some time to change, but many others that can |
D:Day9.1 | on our mountain top retreat. We have not removed ourselves from | life in any way, and yet we have reached a place of retreat, a place |
D:Day9.1 | retreat, a place of safety and of rest, a place away from “normal” | life and the lack of freedom you have experienced there. I am your |
D:Day9.32 | the freedom to strive to be more and to do more. You might ask what | life would be for without this type of freedom to strive, to achieve, |
D:Day10.27 | I asked you once before to review your ideas about the afterlife, a | life in which most of you believe peacefulness reigns and the spirit |
D:Day10.27 | not 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 |
D:Day10.28 | longer as you consider a particular person you fondly remember from | life and how you have thought of him or her since death. Do you not |
D:Day10.31 | you do not know your power. If there is one thing associated with my | life more so than any other, it was this. I was an advocate for all |
D:Day10.32 | for now is the same extreme measure that I called for during my | life. It is the call to embrace your power. |
D:Day11.5 | as it is of the self of form. God is the oneness and the separation. | Life is the relationship. God is what is. Life is the relationship of |
D:Day11.5 | and the separation. Life is the relationship. God is what is. | Life is the relationship of what is with Its Self. |
D:Day11.8 | Life is the connecting tissue of the web of form with the divine All. | |
D:Day11.8 | Life is the connecting tissue of the web of form with the divine All. | Life is consciousness. Christ-consciousness is awareness of what is. |
D:Day13.3 | the one. The oneness that your individual self represents in this | life is the oneness of the Holy One who is both one—somewhat in the |
D:Day15.6 | relationship of observation that you have interacted with all other | life forms as well as with inanimate forms. In the relationship |
D:Day15.8 | place at the birth of the body and then cease to be. It is not about | life and making form alive but about spirit and informing spirit. It |
D:Day15.24 | While you have not been asked to remove yourself from | life during this time on the mountain, you have been asked to be here |
D:Day15.24 | been in two places at once without being divided. As you re-enter | life on level-ground, this ability to carry an undivided but spacious |
D:Day16.4 | know—that you are responsible for the sorry circumstances of your | life. |
D:Day16.5 | or the world in general, are to blame for the sorry state of your | life. |
D:Day17.2 | anointed form with the “I Am” of God. In many religious traditions, | life is ritually or sacramentally anointed in its coming and its |
D:Day17.12 | of what can be realized, or made real, through following the example | life of Jesus. |
D:Day18.3 | was a way of acceptance, teaching, learning, and leading an example | life, then the remaining ways of Jesus that are still applicable and |
D:Day18.3 | in this final period are those of acceptance and of being an example | life. |
D:Day18.4 | One Self among the many. In other words, to choose to be an example | life is to choose to be made known by, and to, the many. It is full |
D:Day18.5 | To be an example | life is to be what you represent in truth. Followers of all faiths |
D:Day18.8 | Often science and religion have puzzled over the “beginning” of | life, over what causes the formation of life, over what tells the |
D:Day18.8 | over the “beginning” of life, over what causes the formation of | life, over what tells the brain what to do, over the organizing |
D:Day18.9 | been the accomplished. If this had not been true, the cause of | life would not have been a cause of truth. Just as neither brain nor |
D:Day18.9 | could not truly exist and allow for a functioning state of | life or consciousness. Thus there was only a degree of separation |
D:Day18.12 | that has been re-found to be recreated for everyone. What else would | life be for but to make the invisible paradise of love visible and |
D:Day19.10 | only in that the example is not an example of an individuated | life but an example of the union and relationship that is all life. |
D:Day19.10 | life but an example of the union and relationship that is all | life. |
D:Day21.6 | You realize now that | life itself is a channel and that you are constantly receiving. You |
D:Day21.6 | or information that you receive in union as a channel of the divine | life force that exists in everything and everyone. There is nothing |
D:Day22.1 | the time of learning. It was also noted that you realize that all of | life is a channel. There is a big difference between seeing a teacher |
D:Day22.1 | is a big difference between seeing a teacher as a channel, all of | life as a channel, and the Self as a channel or channeler. |
D:Day22.2 | unknown moves into the state of knowing. This is the way in which | life itself can be seen as a channel. Since the first transition |
D:Day22.2 | in as many ways as possible to make this idea clear to you. You are | life, and you are also surrounded by living forces channeling to you |
D:Day22.11 | in which you know love, in which you know of joy without sorrow, and | life everlasting. This is the great unknown that you can make known. |
D:Day23.1 | must be a being who knows love without fear, joy without sorrow, and | life everlasting. You must be this. A Course of Love gave you the |
D:Day24.2 | You are the virgin, the pregnant, the birth, and the new | life. This is the way of the world as well as the way of creation. |
D:Day27.1 | of being apprehensive in terms of being fearful of the rest of your | life, but apprehensive in terms of taking hold of the rest of your |
D:Day27.1 | life, but apprehensive in terms of taking hold of the rest of your | life, of keeping it within your understanding, within your ability to |
D:Day27.1 | own grasp of it. You have been asked to let go of much, but not of | life. |
D:Day27.2 | agreed to this mountain top experience while remaining engaged in | life. You have thus begun to experience on two levels. This has been |
D:Day27.3 | Experiencing | life without the insight of spirit was to experience external life. |
D:Day27.3 | life without the insight of spirit was to experience external | life. Life itself showed you the way, pointed you in differing |
D:Day27.3 | life without the insight of spirit was to experience external life. | Life itself showed you the way, pointed you in differing directions, |
D:Day27.3 | you what you needed to know. This was the external experience of | life. Most of you have had well-examined external lives. You have |
D:Day27.3 | lives. You have looked for causes behind the direction in which | life led you, but your life was not inner-directed because it was |
D:Day27.3 | for causes behind the direction in which life led you, but your | life was not inner-directed because it was devoid of inner-sight. |
D:Day27.6 | ability to combine both levels of being through the experience of | life. You have already been doing this. You are, in fact, becoming |
D:Day27.7 | in, this new relationship that you have with yourself and with | life. You quite literally have a new way of seeing. You might think |
D:Day27.8 | breathing. In this same way, the dualistic seeming nature of all of | life will be revealed to only seem to be so. |
D:Day27.15 | Life, your humanity, is the variability. Spirit, your oneness, is the | |
D:Day27.15 | humanity, is the variability. Spirit, your oneness, is the constant. | Life is oneness extended into separation and variability through |
D:Day27.15 | experience. The elevated Self of form will be the expression of new | life lived within the constant of wholeness but continuing to |
D:Day28.1 | or no choice between staying engaged in an externally directed | life and removing oneself from life. This may have seemed to be an |
D:Day28.1 | engaged in an externally directed life and removing oneself from | life. This may have seemed to be an either/or proposition and thus |
D:Day28.1 | from an externally directed to an internally directed experience of | life creates unlimited choices. The unlimited choices of internally |
D:Day28.1 | to know the difference between externally and internally directed | life experiences. |
D:Day28.3 | stage of awareness is a stage of simple external movement through | life. Many people, especially young adults, have little experience |
D:Day28.5 | outcome. By living the experiences of these externally directed | life situations, growth occurs, changes happen, new avenues to |
D:Day28.5 | of experience: That of external movement toward a chosen type of | life. |
D:Day28.10 | You and your | life are one. Your life is not the giver and you the receiver. |
D:Day28.10 | You and your life are one. Your | life is not the giver and you the receiver. |
D:Day28.13 | Depending on the circumstances of your | life, one of these two attitudes will have a reverse side that will |
D:Day28.13 | will have a reverse side that will have a greater hold on you. Your | life may have shown you that you are not in control in many ways and |
D:Day28.13 | ways and at many times. Therefore, you think that you must take what | life has to “give.” This is most likely the attitude of those whose |
D:Day28.13 | has to “give.” This is most likely the attitude of those whose major | life dilemmas have been of a monetary or career nature, where success |
D:Day28.13 | or failure “in life” is seen as the most crucial element of a happy | life. |
D:Day28.14 | of reversing is that of God determining the circumstances of your | life, you have probably been more affected by the relationships of |
D:Day28.14 | life, you have probably been more affected by the relationships of | life, by loss or death of loved ones, by accidents, or illness, or |
D:Day28.26 | the thread that has led you to the mountain and the thread of the | life from which you have not removed yourself. Now you must begin to |
D:Day28.26 | to weave these two threads together into the tapestry of your new | life. This weaving will take place as you continue to intertwine the |
D:Day29.1 | they cease to be real for us. Wholeness and separation, God and man, | life and the individuated self, what you do and who you are, the |
D:Day29.1 | into one level of experience, you will be able to experience | life from within the reality of wholeness rather than from within the |
D:Day31.4 | with your Father, your Creator, the originator and denominator of | life. |
D:Day32.2 | If all of | life is the oneness that is God and God has chosen to experience that |
D:Day32.7 | not tremendously different than scientific notions of the source of | life. Whether it be called God or the Big Bang or evolution, this |
D:Day32.9 | akin to that of what we refer to as our conscience? What kind of | life would this be? A difficult to imagine life at the very least. |
D:Day32.9 | conscience? What kind of life would this be? A difficult to imagine | life at the very least. |
D:Day32.11 | Jesus spoke to you of his | life as an example life. Jesus was called the Son of God and also |
D:Day32.11 | Jesus spoke to you of his life as an example | life. Jesus was called the Son of God and also God. Those who |
D:Day32.14 | This is why Jesus came as your teacher and was used as the example | life for this work. This is the point that this work has striven to |
D:Day32.15 | world around you has revealed anything to you of the nature of | life and God, it has revealed to you the truth of relationship. As |
D:Day33.2 | Relationship is the interconnective tissue that is all | life. The answer of how to respond to each and every relationship— |
D:Day34.6 | This is your world and your experience. This is your | life and your experience of life. Now you must believe that you are |
D:Day34.6 | world and your experience. This is your life and your experience of | life. Now you must believe that you are its creator and powerful in |
D:Day35.7 | accomplishment and union here and now come to replace all ideas of | life after death. |
D:Day35.8 | These are ideas that take the way in which you once related to | life and shift it entirely. Because the way in which you relate to |
D:Day35.8 | life and shift it entirely. Because the way in which you relate to | life is what has caused life to be as it has been, this shift will |
D:Day35.8 | Because the way in which you relate to life is what has caused | life to be as it has been, this shift will cause life to be |
D:Day35.8 | is what has caused life to be as it has been, this shift will cause | life to be different, or in other words, new. |
D:Day35.9 | woman carries her child. Let them grow. Let them live. And give them | life. |
D:Day35.10 | Giving ideas | life is the role of creatorship. |
D:Day35.11 | As a creator of | life, new life, your first creation is, in a sense, creation, or |
D:Day35.11 | As a creator of life, new | life, your first creation is, in a sense, creation, or recreation of |
D:Day35.15 | of creation would negate the purpose of creation, which is | life in relationship, life in harmony, the experience and the |
D:Day35.15 | would negate the purpose of creation, which is life in relationship, | life in harmony, the experience and the expression of the one in, and |
D:Day35.16 | Creation has produced | life through union and relationship. Humankind’s unawareness of the |
D:Day35.18 | than created. The world as you know it is what you have made. Your | life as you know it is what you have made. You will only fully |
D:Day35.21 | you are aware of having at least some role in the creation of your | life. You may feel that at times God has intervened, or that at times |
D:Day35.21 | of fate, but you are also aware of the role you have had in your own | life, primarily as you have reached maturity and begun to make |
D:Day36.2 | from all others. You made choices concerning how you would live your | life from within the realm of what you considered possible. You did |
D:Day36.3 | Your experiences in their totality you call your | life. Yet you have stood apart from these experiences—all of them. |
D:Day36.3 | from these experiences—all of them. You can look back on your | life and see its form. You could write an autobiography describing |

D:Day37.14 | with loved ones, at times seeing the connectedness of your | life with that of others, but even then, only on a limited scale. You |
D:Day37.14 | You have often not exercised even this limited power, believing that | life just “happens” to you, and then responding to what happens. You |
D:Day37.14 | happens. You believe either that you are in complete control of your | life, or that God or fate have as much control as you do. You may |

T1:2.17 | by being a shared experience. It is there not for you alone, but in | listening to its call for a response, it becomes a gift for you that |
T2:5.1 | heretofore about a calling you feel from within, as if you are | listening to a new voice that would reveal your talents and desires |
T2:5.2 | at its most basic level, a means of communication. If you are not | listening, you will not hear the calls that are meant for you. If you |

D:Day1.3 | but there is a reason that you are here with me. You have been | listening to my words, and these words are what have brought you |
D:Day14.12 | as the one. This dialogue is going on all around you. Have you been | listening to but one voice? Or have you begun to hear the one voice |
D:Day19.9 | is a way of existence in which relationship is paramount. It is not | listening to a calling to “do” but a calling to “become.” |
A.7 | When you succeed at | listening without seeking for understanding, without grasping for |

T2:4.5 | You will almost | literally continue to “bump in” to who you think you are as you |

T4:2.8 | I belabor this point because you | literally cannot proceed to full awareness while ideas such as more |

C:P.16 | new world glittering with all the beauty of heaven set off at just a | little distance in a golden light. When you could have seen this |

C:4.18 | from what you do here. You think this setting apart gives love | little relevance to other areas of your life. Love is seen as |
C:4.25 | their world of love could extend once love joined the world. How | little need for the angry ones to retain their anger when love has |
C:5.22 | a solution that requires no exertion on your part, is seen to be of | little value. The individual, you reason, is made through all this |
C:5.26 | make this sacrifice? What then would your life be for? You want so | little really. How can you be asked to give this up? |
C:5.27 | You do want | little, and only when you realize this can you proceed to claiming |
C:6.13 | To succeed is but a | little death from which you must hurry on to where the challenge of a |

C:8.21 | Some days this will make you feel like one of many, a tiny peon of | little significance. On other days you will feel quite superior, the |
C:8.22 | with you, and the future too. Both are like companions who for a | little while are welcome distractions but are loathe to leave you |

C:9.33 | all your happiness and power to that which you have made! It matters | little now that in so doing you once again imitated what your faulty |
C:9.36 | union, and each joining that you do in holy relationship returns a | little of the memory of union to you. This memory of your divinity is |

C:11.2 | gaze upon and call a masterpiece, as well as those creations of | little hands you hang on refrigerator doors or office walls. You did |

C:12.12 | now; but certainly within the laws of evolution, you have changed as | little as the birds of the air or fish of the sea. Yet somehow you |
C:13.8 | in your day, but know that anything that distracts you from the | little self you think you are is worth the minutes you would give to |
C:14.21 | think that they are lucky to have found a love to shield them for a | little while from all the other things they fear. And yet the |
C:15.3 | Self, but never both. The desire for specialness is what calls your | little self into being. This is the self that is easily wounded, the |
C:17.16 | to deciding to forgive despite your better judgment. See you not how | little sense this makes, how insincere this even sounds? |
C:20.47 | see as being within its scope. It is as if you have cordoned off a | little section of life and said, “These are the things that relate to |

T1:3.10 | The faith they showed was in their willingness to try. This | little willingness gave way to conviction as miracles flowed through |
T1:4.5 | Self. When your Self is seen as no more than a body it is seen as | little more than an object. |
T1:4.25 | We must backtrack a | little here to do the same exposition that we did in regard to |

T3:1.7 | to which you have been called. These changes, perhaps, seem like | little things—a change in attitude here, a change in behavior |
T3:3.3 | them down.” Some of you carefully constructed your lives to leave as | little room as possible for disappointment to affect it or others you |
T3:3.5 | illnesses became the result of behaviors ranging from smoking to too | little exercise. Your accidents caused lawsuits where blame could be |

T3:14.9 | of the choices that throughout your life were caused by fear and how | little consequence they had in truth. These fearful choices took |
T3:20.6 | the future as a repetition of the present or as a long war with | little chance of being won. You chide yourself not to deny the facts, |
T3:20.16 | your brother or sister reaches out to you, all you need ask for is a | little willingness. All you need do is open the door through which |
T4:2.23 | few sustaining connections save for special relationships, and with | little purpose implied in the brief encounters you have with others. |

T3:14.14 | It begins with the birth of Christ in you and in your willingness to | live in the world as the Christ-Self. |
T3:15.12 | How then, do you access and | live within this new reality, this new beginning? Through living by |

T3:16.2 | what this new world will look like. You simply need to be willing to | live by the truth. |

T3:20.15 | willingness. You cannot call others to abandon their willingness to | live in illusion by joining them there! You can only call others to a |
T3:20.17 | light of truth for all to see. Remain who you are and continue to | live by the laws of love in every circumstance, and you bring love to |

T4:1.2 | do this only to reach a conclusion of certainty from which you can | live. |
T4:1.16 | time is not real and will no longer be real to you as you come to | live by the truth. It is in this way that the truth of the past still |
T4:1.27 | that the last generation born into the time of the Holy Spirit will | live out their lives and that soon all who remain on earth will be |
T4:3.5 | You may not feel that you have ever intended to | live in fear. But the displacement of the original intent was so |
T4:3.7 | strength against fear’s veracity. While you chose to believe and | live in a world the nature of which was fear, you could not know God. |

T4:5.4 | In order for your body to | live, this one Energy had to enter your form and exist where you |

T3:20.7 | written, and think that is more realistic and even helpful than | living by the laws of truth. |
T3:20.11 | Miracles are not the end, but merely the means, of | living by the truth. Miracles are not meant to be called upon to |

T4:4.10 | accurate word. I do not speak of bodies living forever instead of | living for what you call a lifetime—be it a lifetime of twenty or |

T4:4.10 | as it has been would only relegate more and more to lives not worth | living. |
T4:4.17 | expect after you die? What difference would this make to your way of | living or the world in which you live? |
T4:5.5 | think of this as a small spark of the energy that has created a | living universe existing within you and uniting you to all that has |
T4:5.5 | of Christ. It is like unto what the water of the ocean is to the | living matter that exists within it. The living matter that exists |
T4:5.5 | of the ocean is to the living matter that exists within it. The | living matter that exists within the ocean has no need to search for |
T4:7.2 | That you are | living in the time of Christ does not mean that you will |
T4:7.2 | that you will automatically realize Christ-consciousness, just as | living in the time of the Holy Spirit did not mean that you would |
T4:7.3 | time. The understanding of the unity that creates and sustains all | living things will now be as close to the surface of consciousness as |
T4:12.32 | a student. The answers to the elevation of the personal self and the | living of Christ-consciousness in form are yet to be revealed and |
D:4.2 | called to see no more. In unity you are whole and inseparable, one | living organism now raised above the level of the organism as you |
D:4.6 | I tell you truthfully that until you are | living as who you are and are doing what you love, you are in prison. |
D:4.22 | as if you need. If you have imprisoned yourself in order to earn a | living by doing work that brings you no joy and allows you not to be |

D:Day19.5 | The ultimate accomplishment is | living as who you are within the world. But in what kind of world? |

D:Day22.7 | The most simple, direct, and uncomplicated answer is that of | living love. The simple answer is that you must express the unknown |

C:4.6 | of security is possible, and day turns endlessly into night in a | long march toward death. Recognize who you are and God’s light goes |
C:4.12 | and self-sacrificing. Still others of you might imagine a couple | long married in which each person is devoted to the other’s |
C:5.7 | wall and I gaze upon it. It is mine to own and keep and cherish. As | long as it is where I can look upon it, it is real to me and I am |
C:5.22 | separate from God so that you can make it on your own, and while you | long to return to God and the heaven that is your home, you do not |
C:7.9 | rule and truth to be locked away in a vault so impenetrable and so | long secured that you have thought it forgotten. You have not |
C:7.9 | that are beyond direction and breathes life back into what has so | long been locked away. After this a gentle breeze will come, never |
C:8.20 | You may begin by feeling compassion toward this body that you have | long viewed as your home. There it goes again, one more time, |
C:8.26 | by what you would have it be. Everyone can think of at least one | long remembered incident that when given to the light of truth |
C:9.21 | have accomplished much. But a warm fire will only provide warmth as | long as it is stoked. A meal will provide fullness only until the |
C:9.35 | As | long as you do not want to be forgiven you will not feel the gentle |
C:9.36 | you by turning every situation into a means to serve its ends. As | long as union is seen as a means only to keep loneliness from you it |
C:9.38 | time” wisely, and you call yourself a “well-rounded individual.” As | long as more than this is not sought, more than this will not be |
C:9.41 | the starting gate and make your bid for glory. You run the race as | long as you can and, win or lose, your participation in the race was |
C:9.47 | cry with joy and forget your sadness in an instant. There will be no | long remembering of regrets, no feeling badly for all the years in |
C:9.47 | you saw this not. There will merely be a glad “Aha!” as what was | long forgotten is returned to you. You will but smile at the childish |
C:10.1 | feelings, how can this be so? The body by itself is neutral. But as | long as you attribute the body with bringing you pleasure, the body |
C:10.2 | one with all. This union has never really ceased to be, but as | long as you do not realize that it exists its benefits are |
C:10.2 | is not enough of itself to make you aware of what you have for so | long hidden from yourself. I can merely tell you where to look, and |
C:10.5 | For those of you who have been journeying | long, as well as those of you just beginning, this abandonment of the |
C:10.6 | be separate. Be warned that it will constantly try to interfere as | long as you place any merit in what it tells you. |
C:10.9 | This is but a stage you will pass through, though some may linger | long here. You will stay until you realize that all are good and that |
C:10.12 | still be reading if you believed you were your body and that alone. | Long have you known that there is more to you than flesh and bones. |
C:11.4 | hurrying, fear of failing, and earnest attempts at trying hard have | long been past. Each exercise is but an idea, and ideas leave not |
C:11.4 | This will happen of its own without your understanding as | long as you remain willing for the ideas to dwell within you, and you |
C:12.2 | answer, as if it has not been said before. This message was preached | long ago and still the world remains the same. How could this be the |
C:12.12 | have remained the same for countless ages. Perhaps you believe that | long ago you evolved from a form different than that which you |
C:13.5 | of you, but will seem to offer you a warm welcome, as if you are a | long lost friend returning home. |
C:14.19 | chains you would bind this separate universe to your own, for as | long as it maintains its autonomy, which it must, even its nearness |
C:14.26 | And you cannot just let go of your own specialness. For as | long as you hold on to the specialness of others you hold on to your |
C:14.29 | that what you view as love is not what you think it is. But as | long as you equate love with the special ones on whom you choose to |
C:15.12 | you. No, this is not an easy choice, or it would have been chosen | long ago and saved much suffering and put an end to hell. But it also |
C:18.8 | help you see: a world you can observe and learn in and from, for as | long as you would choose to learn what the idea of separation would |
C:19.9 | as beloved to God. Can you not witness to their belovedness as those | long ago witnessed to mine? You have not been able to do this thus |
C:19.10 | in relationship. To see your brothers and sisters as those of | long ago saw me is the way to achieve relationship of the highest |
C:19.20 | do not become impatient now. We are on the home stretch and all you | long for is nearer than ever before. To talk of going “back” will |
C:19.24 | to redeem the guilt-filled self. This idea of self-redemption has | long been a culprit that has kept union, even with your own Self, |
C:20.31 | This cooperation is natural when fear has been rejected. You have | long embraced fear and rejected love. Now the reverse is true. This |
C:20.32 | so that you can see the application of cooperative action. As | long as you fear your own ability to know what you do, you cannot be |
C:21.7 | of this conflict or what it means to you, but I assure you that as | long as mind and heart interpret meaning in different ways you will |
C:23.2 | The lessons learned from love will go a | long way in assuaging your remaining fears about the loss of your |
C:23.2 | of you has found as you have loved another, the more you love and | long to possess a loved one, the more you realize that your loved one |
C:23.9 | What you | long for is re-union. Yet reunion too is relationship, because union |
C:23.26 | a process of unlearning that will lead to the conviction you have so | long sought, you will indeed feel tested and will try to take control |
C:23.26 | in control is simply another way of saying acting on old beliefs. As | long as you attempt to remain in control, old beliefs will not be |
C:26.1 | or financial security. Most of you will think of having a | long life. |
C:26.11 | Is this not what you have cried about in frustration? Have you not | long sought to put a name on happiness? Have you not long lamented |
C:26.11 | Have you not long sought to put a name on happiness? Have you not | long lamented that if you knew what would bring you happiness you |
C:26.11 | would bring you happiness you would surely pursue it? Have you not | long stated that if you knew what would bring meaning to your life |
C:26.11 | bring meaning to your life you would surely do it? Have you not | long wished to know your purpose? To be given a goal that would |
C:26.24 | is oneness with God. It is a place you have never left but that you | long for, believing that you know it not. Your life here is much like |
C:29.22 | You who have so | long been afraid to claim your smallest gifts, look again at claiming |
T1:2.3 | love could be the answer when it has been preached by so many for so | long is answered here. The answer lies in your response to love. To |
T1:2.7 | most skilled in this training of the ego-mind worldly rewards have | long been given. These people attain degrees and skills and then |
T1:5.1 | Why, when a God of Love was revealed so | long ago and in so many times and in so many forms since then that |
T1:6.5 | that there is something to reach out to. Such ideas of prayer have | long been opening doors for those who are ready to walk through them |
T1:9.8 | Yet it seems there must be one to give and one to receive. You have | long waited to receive what you have thought could come only from |
T1:10.5 | instead? Can you wholeheartedly choose peace? Can you choose peace | long enough to become accustomed to joy without sorrow? If you |
T2:7.6 | that tries to take away your independence should be resisted. As | long as you continue to listen to your ego you will not understand |
T2:7.13 | within. You cannot be independent and still be of service. For as | long as you believe in your independence you will not accept your |
T2:7.19 | to separate the false from the true, for your ego thoughts cannot | long abide in the holy place of your heart. Then, with truth and |
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 you |
T2:9.17 | will meet your needs is like holding your breath. Your breath cannot | long be held. It is only through the inhaling and exhaling, the give |
T2:10.12 | But as | long as you continue to attempt to learn with your ego, or in other |
T2:10.12 | continue to attempt to learn with your ego, or in other words, as | long as you would continue to attempt to learn in the same way that |
T2:11.2 | are, you will find living as who you are in the world difficult as | long as you perceive of others as living under the old rules, the |
T2:11.2 | perceive of the world as operating under the laws of man and as | long as you perceive of the world in such a way you will be forced to |
T2:11.15 | can only remain if you remain convinced that the ego is real. As | long as you believe that the ego is real, you will feel as if there |
T2:11.16 | in an ego-self with belief in a Christ-Self. Total replacement. As | long as you hang on to both identities the world will not change and |
T3:1.13 | now in focusing upon the self of the body, as this self has been so | long bound to the ego-self. Even with the ego once and finally |
T3:2.11 | strife, for the sole reason of being separate from that to which you | long to return? The only alternative has seemed to be a belief in a |
T3:3.3 | always found their lives to be beyond their efforts at control and | long ago gave up trying. Most of you fall somewhere in between, |
T3:3.9 | recognized you. While your recognition of your Self has come a | long way through your learning of this Course, your self is still |
T3:8.3 | This resistance is the reason you have been taken on such a | long journey before we ever once talked of an idea as crucial as that |
T3:8.3 | feelings, using them as building blocks for its thought system. As | long as you carry this bitterness within you, you will remain in the |
T3:9.6 | death experiences have eased the fears of many but made many more | long for life after death rather than life. You who have followed me |
T3:10.5 | for ridding your mind of blame will leave an empty space you will | long to fill. This act of consciously choosing not to place blame |
T3:10.10 | constant certainty is impossible. This feeling will remain only as | long as you remember your past uncertainty. Uncertainty, like all the |
T3:11.16 | You are not right and others wrong. This temptation will not | long be with you for once the old thought system is thoroughly |
T3:13.10 | yourself something such as this: “I have an idea that if I sleep as | long as I feel I need to sleep in the morning, I will awake refreshed |
T3:14.1 | remain and as such be a deterrent to new ideas and to action. As | long as these patterns of fear remain as deterrents to action, you |
T3:14.2 | soon prevail, for those dwelling in the House of Truth would not | long abide with such illusions, but the pattern of the old would not |
T3:17.2 | that one cannot help but have upon the other. Science still has a | long way to go in determining, through its processes, what this says |
T3:20.6 | eye you “observe” the future as a repetition of the present or as a | long war with little chance of being won. You chide yourself not to |
T3:20.6 | the facts, and you begin, along with the one whom you observe, the | long walk toward death’s door. All of these actions could be called |
T4:1.13 | and ushered in the time of heaven on earth and the end of suffering | long ago? Could many have been spared who weren’t? How capricious |
T4:1.23 | more and more obscure. Some have yearned for a return to days not | long past, days during which distinctions between right and wrong did |
T4:2.6 | The production that has so | long occupied you will now serve you as you turn your productive and |
T4:2.19 | This is why it has | long been stated that you are not called to evangelize or convince |
T4:2.29 | You have lived with the vision of the separated self for so | long that you cannot imagine what shared vision will mean, and do not |

T4:6.6 | choice alone will affect millions of your brothers and sisters, as | long as—and this is a crucial as long as—you do not give in to |
T4:6.6 | of your brothers and sisters, as long as—and this is a crucial as | long as—you do not give in to ideas of separation and disunity. |
T4:10.3 | So how, you might ask, do you quit now, doing what you have so | long done? |
T4:12.10 | of this idea will make in your capacity to express who you are. As | long as you continue to invite learning, you will continue to invite |
T4:12.15 | You have arrived! The | long journey that brought you here is over. Grow not impatient or |
D:1.3 | through lack, in other words, of abilities of the personal self. As | long as you “see” such visions, you “see” the pattern of the personal |
D:1.3 | the realm of the elevated Self, the space of the elevated Self. As | long as you see in this way, you keep the personal self in the |
D:3.2 | and sisters in Christ, this is the call you have heard for as | long as you can remember, the call you have heard as often as you |
D:3.20 | will create only such life-giving and life-supporting systems—as | long as the patterns of the new are accepted and lived with your full |
D:4.18 | was for. Let us not dwell any longer on why this has taken so | long or on the suffering that occurred during the time of learning. |
D:4.18 | a structure that will provide you with the home on Earth you have so | long sought and used your faulty systems to but attempt to replicate. |
D:4.20 | prison of your former existence and do not look at it again. Do not | long for its old structure or the false security you came to feel at |
D:4.26 | no more. You cannot keep your prison and have the new life that you | long to have. You may have to examine just what it is that imprisons |
D:4.26 | you may feel as if the walls that imprison you are so sturdy and so | long barred that they may as well be prison walls. You may even be a |
D:5.17 | to the impatience of the human spirit, the longing that has so | long gone unfulfilled that now that you are close you cannot bear to |
D:13.3 | surprising discovery, a joyous discovery of the previously known but | long forgotten identity of the Self and all that lives along with |
D:14.13 | are, in short, what allow form to become the more it has so | long been seeking to become. |
D:16.9 | 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 are being |
D:16.12 | acceptance, and discovery, you have felt as if you still have a | long way to go. You have often thought that even though you may be |

D:Day1.11 | comes from one source and some from another. You may think that, as | long as the power is called forth, it matters not the name by which |
D:Day1.27 | time of living as my Self in the world. So too does it with you. You | long for and desire me because our story is the same. You are living |
D:Day2.5 | This is the time of revelation of meaning. You who have so | long striven to give meaning to the purposeless, here see meaning |
D:Day2.7 | a feeling that you will not be able to remain at this height | long enough to benefit from what will be shared here. |

D:Day3.50 | has been promised? Why do you still have to try so hard? Work so | long? Endure so much? Why isn’t the end in sight? |
D:Day4.7 | draw your attention to the learning of childhood. Learning begins | long before the onset of the time of language that constitutes your |
D:Day5.1 | needed, however, this point of access will remain crucial as | long as you maintain rather than sustain the state of unity. This |
D:Day5.13 | love only when you have felt you “have” love to give. You thus have | long known the truth of giving and receiving as one within your own |
D:Day9.31 | ideal self, like a god seen as “other than” puts all that you would | long for in a place outside of, or beyond, the self you are now. |

D:Day22.6 | is as if through this union you have learned a great secret that you | long to share. But what is it? And how do you share it? How do you |
D:Day32.12 | precedence in all lives. All lives. There is no other choice as | long as the self and God are seen as separate. |
D:Day35.5 | you were not sharing the relationship of everything with God? As | long as you have known that you are a self, as long as you have been |
D:Day35.5 | with God? As long as you have known that you are a self, as | long as you have been aware of your own existence, you have been |
D:Day40.20 | whom you have a relationship is love’s extension. It is the Self you | long to be as well as the Self you are. This paradox has kept you as |

D:4.26 | Those of you now protesting having heard what you have so | longed to hear, protest no more. You cannot keep your prison and have |

C:3.5 | that you are in the dark, but you will not believe that you are no | longer real. Close your eyes on all that you have become accustomed |
C:3.6 | In the light that comes only to eyes that no | longer see, you will find the Christ who abides in you. In Jesus |
C:4.24 | will show you what love is and keep it not set apart from life any | longer. Love cannot be brought to the world of madness, nor the world |
C:4.27 | and afraid will linger for a while where it can terrify you no | longer, until finally it will fade away into the nothingness from |
C:5.8 | your banks as well as your museums as palaces to your love and no | longer see the golden calves hiding within the palace walls. |
C:6.4 | interrelated whole. That the universe is an interrelated whole is no | longer disputed even by science. What you have made to hide your |
C:6.11 | disease has taken your limbs’ use from your control and your mind no | longer races forward to what is next. |
C:6.17 | are what they are meant to be and seen in heaven’s holy light. No | longer do situations pit one against another, making it impossible |
C:6.22 | to the truth. You have been so successful at deception that you no | longer can see the light unaided. But join your brother and the light |
C:10.6 | will not 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:10.7 | more persistent and insistent than these. They have been with you | longer and more constantly. Vigilance is needed to dislodge them. |
C:11.3 | then begin your attempts to acquire what you lack, so that you no | longer have less than anyone else. Some of you may be confident in |
C:15.3 | must be seen for what it is so that you will desire it no | longer. You can have specialness or your true Self, but never both. |
C:16.17 | of it something even darker than it started out as being. It no | longer seems like a choice that the child has made, but seems to be |
C:16.25 | live, and so you think another must be able to do it better. You no | longer trust yourself with your own power, and so you have forgotten |
C:18.2 | one. If one link in the chain were to be removed, the chain would no | longer form a circle but would fall, each end suspended in space. The |
C:20.3 | You are no | longer the object viewing the subjects of the kingdom. You are the |
C:20.3 | of your eyes and the “I” of your ego. You are loosed of bounds, no | longer a thing of beauty, but beauty itself. |
C:20.4 | “Thingness” is over, and your identity no | longer stands in form but flows from life itself. Your beauty is the |
C:20.8 | And now we begin to see with the eyes of our heart. We are no | longer looking out but looking in. All landscapes and horizons form |
C:20.14 | me to the embrace. The singular heartbeat of the man Jesus no | longer sounded. My heartbeat was the heartbeat of the world. |
C:20.16 | There is no | longer cause for alienation, nor for the feeling of abandonment so |
C:22.1 | will change with your change in perspective on use. You will no | longer be using your imagination but letting your imagination be of |
C:23.11 | union. Union does not foster belief, because in unity belief is no | longer required. Belief fostered the union of atoms and cells into |
C:23.15 | this inaccurate belief, your body will be freed. It will no | longer be an object of use but a means of service. |
C:23.23 | for unlearning. To learn that a previously held belief is no | longer valid is the only way to truly purge that belief. |
C:23.25 | I assure you, all experiences will be thus until unlearning is no | longer needed. If you will remember that the one exercise for your |
C:25.7 | come from your inability to receive. Do this practice until it is no | longer needed. |
C:25.9 | if you have integrated the most basic teaching of this Course and no | longer feel duped by life. All of your contests of will are supported |
C:25.13 | a time of healing, and as you are healed you will realize you are no | longer vulnerable to being wounded. Fear of being wounded— |
C:26.5 | You cannot fly too closely to the sun. You cannot be deceived any | longer by tales of woe or of fallen heroes. Your story is one of |
C:26.5 | of fallen heroes. Your story is one of glory. Your greatness can no | longer be denied, unless you deny it. |
C:28.4 | sharing of personal testimony has reached its zenith and will no | longer be as welcomed or appreciated, so even were the intent of this |
C:28.10 | you believe it, this is, at first, quite true. But now it is no | longer the time to rely on conviction that comes from the witnesses |
C:30.7 | truly knows, the simplest truth of the identity of the Self no | longer lives in a dualistic position with God, but in a monistic |
T1:2.6 | many of your feelings. It led you so far from the truth that you no | longer trust in it. It confused the smallest issues to such a degree |
T1:4.25 | or not, please continue to give me your attention just a while | longer as we uncover all that would still hold you back. |
T1:7.4 | historical figures that taught in such a way as your examples any | longer. I have said a new way of learning is needed and is here. To |
T1:8.5 | As I no | longer suffer the separation, you need no longer suffer the |
T1:8.5 | As I no longer suffer the separation, you need no | longer suffer the separation. Even though the resurrection returned |
T1:8.9 | arise from. Arise and awaken to your resurrected self! There is no | longer a god-head to follow into paradise. Take not the example of |
T1:10.6 | without choosing to return to learning in the same way again. You no | longer need these experiences to alert you to the divine presence. |
T2:1.5 | live. Done with the adventures of living, you would deem yourself no | longer interested in the hunt for buried treasure and see it not. |
T2:4.6 | recognized as the condition of the swimmer’s environment. You are no | longer confined to the conditions of separation, my dear brothers and |
T2:4.15 | This is atonement and it is continuous and ongoing until it is no | longer needed. Anything continuous and ongoing is part of creation. |
T2:8.6 | that you have “found” and that you have been found. You need no | longer journey onto the paths of seeking. The truth of yourself that |
T2:8.7 | seeking? You have already arrived and need no time to journey any | longer. How much time will be saved by an end to the maintenance |
T2:9.16 | fulfillment is complete. Once this trust is realized you will no | longer think in terms of needs at all. Once you are no longer |
T2:9.16 | you will no longer think in terms of needs at all. Once you are no | longer concerned with needs and the meeting of needs you will no |
T2:9.16 | no longer concerned with needs and the meeting of needs you will no | longer be concerned with special relationships. You will realize that |
T2:9.17 | remember this example of holding your breath. Think in such a way no | longer than you can comfortably hold your breath. Release your breath |
T2:9.18 | on which trust can grow. Once this trust is realized you will no | longer think of trust just as you will no longer think of needs. |
T2:9.18 | is realized you will no longer think of trust just as you will no | longer think of needs. |
T2:10.7 | While you are being told that you can no | longer believe that what you know is related to experience, you are |
T2:11.2 | Even though you no | longer want to be other than who you are, and even though you now |
T2:13.3 | While 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 |
T2:13.6 | through the personal self who continues to walk this world a while | longer. Listen for my voice as I guide you to your purpose here and |
T3:2.5 | separate from God out of defiance and a desire to be one with God no | longer. This could not be further from the truth and is the cause of |
T3:6.6 | for bitterness, and bitterness itself behind. Bring bitterness no | longer to the dwelling place of Christ and we will seal the place of |
T3:10.4 | say to yourself, “I was placing blame again and I choose to do so no | longer.” You need not spend any more time with blame than this and I |
T3:10.9 | Remember that all doubt is doubt about yourself and that you are no | longer called to doubt yourself. Your Self is now your Christ-Self. |
T3:10.11 | While these may seem like remedial lessons, they are not. You are no | longer called to a time of uncertainty to learn through contrast the |
T3:11.2 | Self. Without necessarily being able to put it into words, they no | longer feel the statement of “I am” as a statement of the personal |
T3:11.4 | would fear. The House of Truth is the dwelling place of those who no | longer live in fear and thus have no need for a structure of seeming |
T3:11.9 | than the House of Peace for a reason. What you are learning is no | longer that the Kingdom of God or the House of Truth exists, but how |
T3:11.10 | any right or wrong, the difference between truth and illusion can no | longer be denied. To realize the difference between truth and |

T3:15.13 | These Treatises are no | longer concerned with coursework as the work of this Course has been |
T3:16.14 | said that your only relationship is with the truth and that you no | longer have a relationship with illusion. All of your fears in |
T3:18.9 | you. It has always been led by your thought system. If it is no | longer instructed by the thought system of illusion, it is natural to |
T3:19.9 | There is no | longer any time to waste on such illusions. The thought system of the |
T3:19.14 | is only when what is observable is so widely evident that it can no | longer be denied that changes of a large scale will begin to be seen. |
T3:20.1 | By saying that there is no | longer any time to be wasted on illusion we are saying that you will |
T3:20.1 | any time to be wasted on illusion we are saying that you will no | longer serve time but that time will serve you. Time was wasted on |
T3:20.11 | but because it is who you are and because you realize you can no | longer be, live, or think as other than who you are in truth. This is |
T3:20.12 | You can no | longer return to the house of illusion, not even to cause explosions |
T3:21.9 | to you. It is a stance intolerant of illusion. You must no | longer see illusion for it is no longer there! This is how you must |
T3:21.9 | intolerant of illusion. You must no longer see illusion for it is no | longer there! This is how you must live with it. You must live with |
T3:21.18 | a representation only. It will represent only the truth. It will no | longer be seen as your identity, but as representing your identity, |
T3:21.21 | While this has been called the time of Christ, it is obviously no | longer the time of Jesus Christ. My time came and my time ended. The |
T3:21.22 | that your differences can serve our purpose until differences are no | longer seen. What I am saying is that you can remain confident in |
T3:22.1 | the internal affects the external, seem as evidence that you will no | longer be allowed the “separate” life, or private life that you have |
T4:1.8 | for education to change. It may signal that what is taught is no | longer relevant, or that the means of teaching what is relevant no |
T4:1.8 | longer relevant, or that the means of teaching what is relevant no | longer works. It may be a choice made regarding means or content, a |
T4:1.16 | within you. It is in this way that time is not real and will no | longer be real to you as you come to live by the truth. It is in this |
T4:2.30 | Realize now that you have come to recognize unity. You do not any | longer see each person and event as separate, with no relation to the |
T4:7.8 | But let me again emphasize that the conditions of learning will be no | longer needed once learning has occurred. The student no longer needs |
T4:7.8 | will be no longer needed once learning has occurred. The student no | longer needs to attend school once the desired curriculum is learned, |
T4:10.11 | Learning has had to do with what is perceived. No | longer learning has to do with what is revealed. Learning has had to |
T4:10.11 | what is revealed. Learning has had to do with what is unknown. No | longer learning has to do with what is and can only be known through |
T4:10.11 | through revelation. Learning has had to do with supplying a lack. No | longer learning has to do with the realization that there is no lack. |
T4:10.11 | the desired experience of expressing the Self of love in form. No | longer learning is the revelation that the time of accomplishment is |
T4:10.11 | in order to know who you are and how to express who you are. No | longer learning, or being accomplished, is synonymous with knowing |
T4:11.5 | As I do so, I bid you to read these words in a new way. You are no | longer a learner here and what I reveal to you must be regarded as |
T4:11.5 | pages as a memory returned to your reunited heart and mind. No | longer regard me as an authority to whom you turn, but as an equal |
T4:12.6 | Take delight in these surprises. Laugh and be joyous. You no | longer have a need to figure things out. Surprises cannot be figured |
T4:12.9 | and experience sharing directly. If a time arrives when you no | longer feel drawn to these modes of sharing, share anew in ever-wider |
T4:12.10 | Learning is a condition of the separated self, which is why it is no | longer needed. You will not fully realize unity while you continue to |
T4:12.20 | dwell within the love that is Christ-consciousness. As there is no | longer any cause for self-doubt there are no reasons for self-doubt. |
T4:12.33 | still exist in the realm of time and space. Yet time and space no | longer separate us, and the creation of the design or pattern that |
D:1.10 | of cause. To die to the personal self is not what is required any | longer as we work instead to elevate the personal self. This |
D:1.13 | You are in grace and union with the Source and Cause of unity. Be no | longer causeless. You and your Source are one. |
D:1.14 | I am no | longer the personal self who was separate and alone. I am my Christ |
D:1.15 | you cannot be taught what unity would freely give. The goal is no | longer learning. The goal is accepting the identity that has always |
D:1.22 | have returned to a natural state of knowing in which learning is no | longer needed. You have now come upon a curriculum that is impossible |
D:1.23 | yourself. If you fully accepted your true identity, you would no | longer look outside of yourself for guidance for you would realize |
D:1.26 | for being who you are and the realization that learning is no | longer necessary. |
D:2.3 | old. As you have been told, you now “know what you do” and are no | longer a victim to the circumstance of a split mind that allowed the |
D:2.4 | to unity. This pattern has achieved its desired end and so is no | longer needed nor appropriate. While it was once a pattern whose |
D:3.5 | was necessary for the learning of the separated self but that is no | longer necessary. The mending of the rift between heart and mind |
D:3.6 | health, life and death. In this time of Christ, such learning is no | longer necessary, and so these conditions of learning are no longer |
D:3.6 | is no longer necessary, and so these conditions of learning are no | longer necessary. Thus one of your first acts of acceptance is the |
D:3.17 | This is why I will often repeat that I am no | longer your teacher. You must realize your oneness with me and all |
D:3.21 | being one. This awareness exists within you and you cannot any | longer claim to be unaware of it through non-acceptance of what is. |
D:4.7 | prison, must adjust to a life in which his or her actions are no | longer restricted artificially, you must adjust to your new freedom. |
D:4.7 | so acclimated to prison life, that life on the “outside” is no | longer seen as desirable. How can this be? |
D:4.18 | to know your Self is all that learning was for. Let us not dwell any | longer on why this has taken so long or on the suffering that |
D:4.20 | to tell you anew what to do with who you are now that you are no | longer a prisoner. Do not give keys to a new jailer and ask to be |
D:4.28 | to what is left now that the patterns and systems of learning are no | longer. |
D:5.12 | all you see. But what now will become of these patterns that are no | longer needed as your learning and that of those around you comes to |
D:5.13 | are still a learning being and have need of such help. You are no | longer a learning being and need not this assistance. |
D:5.18 | you is also what I am addressing here. Release through death is no | longer the answer. Release through life is the answer. Release |
D:5.20 | What I’m revealing to you here is that what was once a prison may no | longer be a prison! If you continue to think of your body as a |
D:5.21 | time of no time. You will wonder how to live in time as a being no | longer bound by time. And I tell you truly, that once acceptance of |
D:5.22 | of this acceptance to everything that is still to come. Hesitate no | longer. Let your willingness exceed your trepidation. No longer wait |
D:5.22 | Hesitate no longer. Let your willingness exceed your trepidation. No | longer wait to be told more before you accept what you have already |
D:6.11 | body and the systems of the world in which you exist. If you are no | longer living in an “if this, then that” world, then the same laws |
D:6.21 | As a non-learning being you are now called to accept that you no | longer need this type of learning device and to realize that it will |
D:6.21 | need this type of learning device and to realize that it will no | longer serve you. |
D:6.28 | you have been told time is a measurement of learning. If you are no | longer a learning being, for what is time needed? Time is needed now |
D:8.2 | Ah, you might say now, this you have heard before. This idea of no | longer needing to learn has intrigued you since it was first |
D:8.8 | know how to rid yourself of former patterns. Your mind, while it no | longer wants to cling to known patterns, is confronted with them |
D:11.2 | thought I have just described would be insane. Are you willing any | longer to see me as a lecturer, or even as a great teacher? Am I but |
D:11.6 | Is it not possible to conceive of a time in which desire will no | longer serve you, just as learning now no longer serves you? If you |
D:11.6 | in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now no | longer serves you? If you reach a state of full acceptance of who you |
D:12.16 | the phrase “beyond a shadow of a doubt” will be something you no | longer need add to your knowing of the truth because you will realize |
D:13.6 | a state of being able to sustain Christ consciousness, this will no | longer be a problem because you will constantly abide in awareness of |
D:15.16 | prepared for this by the realization that your thinking mind will no | longer be necessary as your access to unity, or Christ-consciousness, |
D:15.21 | left behind the conditions of learning. Why? Because they are no | longer needed. The time of learning has ended. When this time of |
D:15.21 | all that is available within unity, or Christ-consciousness, will no | longer be needed. This will be as big a step as was the step that |
D:16.3 | did not form. But as can be easily seen, the earth is no | longer a formless wasteland. Form was animated with spirit and |
D:16.6 | awareness of Self are whole and complete, being, like love, is no | longer capable of being learned, for it no longer has attributes. |
D:16.6 | being, like love, is no longer capable of being learned, for it no | longer has attributes. |
D:16.14 | are confident in what you know. You realize fully that you are no | longer a learning being and that you have no need for teachers or for |
D:16.20 | images be without reacting to them. It is a time of coming to no | longer “hold” these images in your mind and heart. It is a time of |
D:17.10 | hope by as you have moved beyond the state of initiation. You are no | longer hopeful for what will come. Hope is desire accompanied by |
D:17.10 | accompanied by expectation. To expect is to await, and you are no | longer waiting. You have arrived. You have passed through the stage |
D:17.14 | Is it not possible to conceive of a time in which desire will no | longer serve you, just as learning now no longer serves you? If you |
D:17.14 | in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now no | longer serves you? If you reach a state of full acceptance of who you |
D:17.15 | to indicate that once fulfillment was reached, desire would no | longer be with you. But your desire is still with you. It is stronger |

D:Day3.14 | that knowing may even say to yourself as you read them that you no | longer think in such a way, they are there in the learned pattern and |
D:Day3.24 | is the pattern of the ego’s survival, and even though the ego is no | longer with you, the pattern remains because what you learned, and |
D:Day3.36 | Learning is no | longer the way for good reason. It exemplifies the difference between |
D:Day3.59 | effort or striving except money. You cannot accept that you no | longer have to learn and accept the condition of learning that is |
D:Day4.34 | serve you now. It is not a tool, as is meditation, for you are no | longer in need of tools. But you have taken yourself away from the |
D:Day4.46 | anger, no return to separation, no return to judgment. It means no | longer trying to leave these things behind for they will be gone. It |
D:Day4.46 | to leave these things behind for they will be gone. It will mean no | longer striving. It will mean no specialness. It will mean the |
D:Day5.1 | A point of access will no | longer be needed once full entry is attained, just as a key is no |

D:Day5.1 | continued entry point so that it is available to you until it is no | longer needed. |
D:Day5.22 | No | longer will what enters you get stopped by layers of defenses. No |
D:Day5.22 | No longer will what enters you get stopped by layers of defenses. No | longer will it meet the road-block of your thinking, your effort, |
D:Day7.3 | your Self is the precondition for the time of acceptance. You are no | longer denying your Self. You are no longer denying unity. You have |
D:Day7.3 | time of acceptance. You are no longer denying your Self. You are no | longer denying unity. You have replaced fear with love. Love is life |
D:Day8.21 | Now you must realize that you no | longer have cause to fear your feelings. They will no longer be the |
D:Day8.21 | that you no longer have cause to fear your feelings. They will no | longer be the source of the misdirection of the past if you accept |
D:Day8.28 | over which are true and which are false! To realize that you no | longer have false feelings. That your feelings are not misleading you |
D:Day10.28 | Let’s continue with this idea a while | longer as you consider a particular person you fondly remember from |
D:Day12.1 | the space of unity. It is the space of ease because thoughts are no | longer allowed their rule. |
D:Day14.3 | and in the separation willfully forgotten. The Spacious self no | longer ejects or forgets because all feelings are accepted as those |
D:Day14.10 | is spaciousness. Invisibility is invisibility. We are no | longer collectors but gatherers. We hold within only what is real and |
D:Day14.13 | of the many will continue to point the way for only a short time | longer. Thus the voice of the many must be heard as the voice of the |
D:Day15.9 | new practice of informing, until the practice of observation is no | longer needed. |
D:Day16.6 | which was separation, is no more. In other words, illness is no | longer observable once what was rejected rejoins the spacious Self. |
D:Day19.12 | unknown known through creation of the new so that the unknown is no | longer unknown but made available to be experienced. |
D:Day21.7 | Now, however, there is no | longer an “eventually.” Teacher and learner are equal and thus |
D:Day21.7 | Teacher and learner are equal and thus neither are needed any | longer. The “transfer” of knowledge is now an act of giving and |
D:Day27.7 | Your descent from the mountain top will not mean that you no | longer have the perspective gained there. You did not “go” to the |
D:Day28.25 | Separation is desired no | longer, but experience is. Your will and God’s are one and thus it is |
D:Day29.2 | Your “self” will no | longer be divided into a spirit Self and a human self, living under |
D:Day37.2 | If you no | longer believe in God as a supreme and separate being, why should it |
D:Day39.5 | Of knowing me as your God and as God of all. Of knowing you are no | longer being on your own and yet of having to come to this |
D:Day39.10 | your own relationship with me is when an intermediary is no | longer needed—because you have realized and made real your oneness |
D:Day39.44 | by means of the bridge of our direct relationship that you will no | longer see me as an inhuman God. You will know I am as human as are |
D:Day40.8 | of the Christ in you, you are returned to relationship and need no | longer strive against the “opposing” force of separation, for you no |
D:Day40.8 | longer strive against the “opposing” force of separation, for you no | longer know it. The creative tension that now remains in our |
E.7 | There is no becoming. As you are no | longer becoming there will be no becoming projected from you onto the |
E.8 | You no | longer have a universe of projection to maintain but a universe of |
E.14 | You will no | longer need to “think” about who you are and what you will do, and |
E.16 | There is no | longer an in-between unless you create it. You have taken the step of |
A.20 | impatience to a new way. Others need to battle against it a while | longer. |
A.26 | reader will now encounter these situations in life. The reader is no | longer only a reader. Their experience of this Course has extended |
A.33 | in staying grounded in the present and reminders that they are no | longer seeking. They need your reassurance that this time of |

C:4.3 | Love and | longing are so intimately attached because they joined together at |
C:4.3 | birthed in unison. Love was thus not ever lost but shadowed over by | longing that, placed between you and your Source, both obscured Its |
C:4.3 | both obscured Its light and alerted you of Its eternal presence. | Longing is your proof of love’s existence, for even here you would |
C:4.4 | proof is proof of your existence established as well. For in your | longing for love, you recognize as well your longing for your Self. |
C:4.4 | as well. For in your longing for love, you recognize as well your | longing for your Self. Why would you wonder who you are and what your |

C:5.20 | thoughts with, as your heart will intercede by fulfilling its | longing for union as soon as you have expressed your willingness to |

C:13.5 | not even recognize it as love, for it will come without all the | longing and sadness you so often associate with it. While the feeling |

C:20.1 | Your | longing now has reached a fever pitch, a burning in your heart quite |
C:26.11 | to know your purpose? To be given a goal that would fulfill the | longing in you? Have you not prayed for signs? Read books that have |
C:26.27 | unity, oneness with God. I ushered in the new way that you are now | longing to adopt. I ushered in a time of being. |
D:1.21 | a state that could not be taught but only accessed through your | longing and desire. |
D:5.17 | await revelation speaks to the impatience of the human spirit, the | longing that has so long gone unfulfilled that now that you are close |
D:17.5 | want, asks for a response rather than a provision. Desire is a | longing for, a stretching out for. Imagine yourself at the summit of |
D:17.5 | earth below. This is the stance of both desire and fulfillment. Of | longing and attainment. Of having asked and having received. Of |
D:Day4.29 | 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 function of |
D:Day4.37 | This is a | longing that carries with it the desire to go beyond thinking, the |
D:Day36.14 | power to feel—love, hate, anger, compassion, greed, humility, and | longing—has always been yours. The power to think—rationally or |
D:Day40.9 | all the power of your experience as well as all the power of your | longing for return. This will be a great power that you carry within |
D:Day40.31 | of being known? Has this Course not addressed the questions, the | longing, the doubts that you would have, before now, called uniquely |
longingly (1) |

C:10.20 | for unhappiness through the choices you would make. You look back | longingly at times of happiness and wonder what went wrong and why |
look (147) |

C:P.16 | truth only to turn your back and refuse to see it, turn around and | look once again. You have traveled your path and the end of the |
C:2.2 | While you | look for a God with a physical form you will not recognize God. |
C:2.10 | other than those of love? Would you expect any decent human being to | look on a loveless world, on misery and despair, and not be moved? |
C:2.10 | is the miracle. The miracle is true seeing. Think not that love can | look on misery and see love there. Love looks not on misery at all. |
C:2.15 | Look not to figures from the past to show you the way beyond | |
C:2.15 | from the past to show you the way beyond illusions to the present. | Look within to the one in you who knows the way. Christ is within you |
C:3.11 | so that it will provide an improvement to what has been before. You | look for evidence that shows that if you behave in a certain way |
C:4.23 | Everywhere you | look is proof of love’s difference found. This difference is your |
C:5.7 | “This is it.” Yet once you have it captured and hanging for all to | look at and behold, you realize this is not love at all. You then |

C:5.8 | fill your shelves, whether they are of ideas or money or things to | look at, are your desperate attempts to keep something for yourself |
C:5.15 | real is the one you keep outside of yourself, making it possible to | look upon it with your body’s eyes. The one you do not see and do not |
C:5.15 | The one you do not see and do not believe in is the one you cannot | look outward to see, but is the one that nonetheless is truly real. |
C:5.15 | outward to see, but is the one that nonetheless is truly real. To | look inward at the real world requires another kind of vision: the |
C:5.16 | You | look outside the doors of your home and, whether you see suburban |
C:5.28 | and it is a loss of what was merely illusion. As union begins to | look more attractive to you, you are beginning to wonder how it comes |
C:6.16 | Without judgment cast upon it, peace shines on all that you would | look upon, as well as every situation you would face. |
C:7.12 | burden of what you hang onto becomes more than you can bear. Now you | look for one upon whom you can unload your burdens, hoping you can |
C:8.11 | What do you mean to do when you attempt to | look beneath the surface? Do you mean to look beneath the skin, or |
C:8.11 | to do when you attempt to look beneath the surface? Do you mean to | look beneath the skin, or into the hidden recesses of a heart or |
C:8.11 | of union a game of speculation, conjecture, and probable cause. You | look for explanations and information rather than the truth you claim |
C:8.11 | and information rather than the truth you claim to seek. You | look in judgment rather than in forgiveness. You look from |
C:8.11 | claim to seek. You look in judgment rather than in forgiveness. You | look from separation’s stance rather than from the grace-filled place |
C:8.15 | Think of your body now as the surface of your existence and | look upon it. Stand back from it, for it is not your home. The heart |
C:9.5 | Look around the room in which you sit and take away the usefulness | |
C:9.5 | each thing you see in it. How many items would you keep that you now | look upon? Your body too was created for its usefulness. It sets you |
C:9.10 | Look upon your body now as you earlier looked upon the space you | |
C:9.10 | Take away the body’s usefulness. Would you keep that which you now | look upon? As you stand back and observe your body, always with the |
C:9.19 | that you would try to tell yourself is not present in your life. You | look to others to feel compassion for, to those living in countries |
C:9.34 | you to make of yourself and your world what you will. Now you | look upon this world with guilt and see it as evidence of your evil |
C:9.41 | achievement has become the idol you would glorify, and you need not | look far for evidence that this is so. This idolatry tells you that |
C:9.41 | your homage. To these you say, “I would be like you.” To these you | look for a vicarious fulfillment, having given up any hope for real |
C:9.44 | and the usee, and so has its proper place in our discussion here. | Look at patterns of abuse, in everything from drugs and alcohol to |
C:10.2 | for so long hidden from yourself. I can merely tell you where to | look, and save you countless years of seeking where the truth is not, |
C:10.9 | a “good” person and one trying to be better still, you will begin to | look for your rewards. Later you will look back upon this time and |
C:10.9 | still, you will begin to look for your rewards. Later you will | look back upon this time and smile and laugh out loud at the |
C:10.14 | you are your body. Even history would seem to prove this fact as you | look back and say even Jesus died before he could rise again as |
C:10.20 | your chances for unhappiness through the choices you would make. You | look back longingly at times of happiness and wonder what went wrong |
C:10.20 | for practicality needed to be made. Yet if the separated self can | look back and see that it chose being right over being happy, it will |
C:10.28 | are merely playing. Play at observing yourself from above. Can you | look “down” upon yourself? And can you skip along and get in front to |
C:12.5 | security of a loving home, even if it is one only of philosophy. You | look for the soft assurance of certainty, not of your mind but of |
C:12.10 | in God’s creation, something has gone wrong! All you need do is | look about you to know that this is so—and, rather than be |
C:12.18 | you to do things you might have never dreamed of doing. People often | look back upon their lives and wonder how they got from here to |
C:13.10 | value. And there is not even the slightest chance of being made to | look foolish by what you are asked to do. |
C:14.9 | same world based upon these different foundations could not help but | look quite different. |
C:14.10 | is required is all to feed your idea of your own specialness. You | look for constant verification that this one you love loves you in |
C:14.12 | about yourself and the world you have made if you are but willing to | look at it with eyes that truly see. It is the magnifying glass that |
C:14.19 | place. Still others are more coy in their design, and dress it up to | look like sacrifice and gifts given, but all with the same purpose in |
C:14.23 | It is but you who gave heaven the purpose of giving you something to | look forward to, a reward for a life lived according to your own |
C:14.30 | love’s opposite is brought into existence. While you refuse to | look upon this simple fact, you have no hope of change, nor does your |
C:15.5 | others well. You would not be special to this one if you did not | look a certain way, and you would not be special to that one if you |
C:15.5 | because if you were to go your own way and choose your own | look, lifestyle, or attitude, you might risk being seen as special |
C:15.11 | to both, and herein lies your problem. For at the turning point you | look back and see one other you cannot betray, and one other whose |
C:16.9 | to you to accept forgiveness that you may give it and henceforth | look upon the forgiven world with love. |
C:16.13 | This form of forgiveness seems impossible to you because you | look upon an unforgiven world where evil walks, danger lurks, and |
C:16.24 | a sacrificial lamb, an offering onto God that God does not want. You | look back on stories of sacrifice from the Bible and think what a |
C:18.9 | learn what you choose to learn. For proof of this all you need do is | look at the world that was created from your wish to learn what the |
C:19.23 | your perception, can be changed. This is necessary before you can | look back in a new way and not simply cover the same ground you have |
C:20.41 | your gifts are expressions of your Father’s perfect love for you. | Look deep inside and feel your heart’s gladness. Your construction |
C:20.41 | be other than you are except when you give in to making judgments. | Look deeply and you will see that what you would call your |
C:22.2 | heart. We will begin by discussing the concept of intersection and | look at it as a passing-through that establishes a partnership or |
C:23.26 | What will happen when you | look at each situation as a challenge to your beliefs? If you do not |
C:25.7 | it. Devotion is synonymous with true service. True service does not | look for what another has to give or what another has that you might |
C:27.11 | own” or with the concept you now hold of yourself. Just as you can | look about and see that no two bodies on this earth are exactly the |
C:29.13 | another way of saying your life, and an alternative view of how you | look at your life, when seen thus, is absolutely necessary. |
C:29.14 | No wholeness will be possible for you while you | look at life in terms of schedules, plans, time-tables, or things to |
C:29.22 | You who have so long been afraid to claim your smallest gifts, | look again at claiming with the definition I have provided. Claiming |
C:29.25 | gifts, your talents, your uniqueness, are your service. Can you not | look at them thus? And can you not come to understand the reciprocal |
C:31.9 | Thus your confusion is also your key to understanding. You need but | look at creation’s projection to understand the nature of perfection |
C:31.28 | Just as you | look to God for your Self, knowing not what it is you seek, so too do |
C:31.28 | to God for your Self, knowing not what it is you seek, so too do you | look to your brothers and sisters and all else that lives along with |
C:31.28 | and sisters and all else that lives along with you. But when you | look, knowing not what you seek, what you find varies. Since there is |
C:31.28 | a variety of answers means nothing. If you but change what you | look for, what you see and what you learn will also change. |
C:31.29 | If you can | look for your Self within your brothers and sisters, however, they |
C:31.29 | within your brothers and sisters, however, they must also be able to | look for their Selves in you. If you are constantly reflecting back |

C:32.1 | the difference for your answers. Now you can see that you need to | look to a different source. |
T1:1.2 | Thus this Treatise will attempt to give specific examples of what to | look for as your learning continues, or how to identify wholehearted |
T1:2.13 | needs to at first be seen in two parts. An example illustrates. To | look at a sunset is to see an object, the sun. It is also to see the |
T1:4.16 | to who you are. What might such a response sound like? Feel like? | Look like? It is a response of pure appreciation and love. It is |
T1:4.16 | love. It is always available. It is the gift given in everything you | look upon and see without the obstacle of the ego-mind’s |
T1:5.9 | study and the reason, when you have freed your self, that you will | look back and see how easy this one choice really is. |
T1:7.4 | I have said that the time of parables has ended and asked you not to | look to those historical figures that taught in such a way as your |
T1:10.6 | chosen them for just this reason. But you can now be an observer and | look upon them as your brothers and sisters learning choice without |
T1:10.9 | Each of you will have an experience you | look back on, an experience of profound joy or grief that also became |
T1:10.10 | such sway over you that you would choose not the Peace of God. But | look past what you have remembered to what was truly there. No moment |
T1:10.11 | they do not happen within them. Peak experiences are what you can | look forward to rather than back upon if you but choose the Peace of |
T2:2.7 | Those who seek an explanation before following a calling, who | look for reasons of a practical nature, who would seek guarantees of |
T2:4.7 | to your reaction to all that occurs within your life. Let us | look now at your reaction to the idea put forth earlier of having a |
T3:3.9 | better suited to putting these beliefs into practice. Or you might | look at your behaviors, your habits, your general personality, and |
T3:8.6 | that you think you would have given anything to change? Do you | look upon the ill and blame them for their illness? Do you not look |
T3:8.6 | you look upon the ill and blame them for their illness? Do you not | look upon all suffering and feel bitter at your own inability to |
T3:8.12 | for what they have imagined it was possible to find. Why would you | look for an end to suffering if you felt this was impossible? Much |
T3:8.12 | an end to suffering if you felt this was impossible? Much better to | look for cures and treatments than for an end to what but seemed |
T3:14.2 | and strife would still seem to be possible. You would merely | look back after the interlude had passed and see the truth, realizing |
T3:14.11 | The choice now is not a choice to explore the why behind it or to | look for remedies for the past. The choice now is whether you want |
T3:14.12 | of you but of God. You might think of this in terms of nature and | look upon nature’s ability to correct itself. You are a part of |
T3:15.2 | and death. This is something we will return to, but first let us | look at other types of new beginnings and all that would hamper them |
T3:16.2 | plan and you do not need to know precisely what this new world will | look like. You simply need to be willing to live by the truth. |
T3:19.12 | is to blame for the illness within them. But you must be able to | look at and see reality for what it is. Just as we are telling you |
T3:20.6 | how realistic you should be or should assume the other to be. You | look ahead, and in your mind’s eye you “observe” the future as a |
T3:20.10 | system is not tied to beliefs of an “if this, then that” nature. | Look at the examples all around you. People who live what you call |
T3:21.22 | or turns to someone older. And yet it will matter that someone will | look at you and see that you are not so different than he or she. It |

T4:1.9 | the “educated” choice and the “uneducated” choice. Many of you may | look back on choices that you made and say, “I would have chosen |
T4:1.13 | might be possible is possible, and has been possible, are you to | look on all of those who have come before you as failures? Has the |
T4:1.16 | notions of blame must be gone from you. Thus, you are asked not to | look back with blame, for no such cause for blame exists. No cause to |
T4:1.16 | back with 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 |
T4:2.29 | judgment. To see without judgment is to see truly. You need not | look for good or bad, but only need be steadily aware that you can |

D:4.20 | Turn your back on the prison of your former existence and do not | look at it again. Do not long for its old structure or the false |
D:4.20 | or the false security you came to feel at times within it. Do not | look for a new structure with barred windows and doors to keep you |
D:5.9 | Thus must it be now with everything in your world. Everywhere you | look the lie of false representation will be exposed and the truth |

D:14.5 | of your normal life. Questions such as, “What might this situation | look like if I forgot everything I have previously known about |
