C:14.19 | 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 mind. |
C:16.24 | God wants no | sacrifice from you, yet when you give away your power you make of |
C:16.24 | onto God that God does not want. You look back on stories of | sacrifice from the Bible and think what a barbaric time that was, and |

safety (23) |

C:2.4 | You think that it is possible to choose it as a means to buy your | safety and security. You thus have defined love as a reaction to |
C:3.22 | claiming to choose love and not pain when what they really choose is | safety at love’s expense. No one here believes they can have one |
C:5.16 | It is where your values are formed, your decisions are made, your | safety found. This comparison is not idly drawn. Your home is within |
C:9.25 | that a life of fear is warranted. How could you not fear for the | safety of a home as fragile as the body? How could you fail to |
C:12.5 | and quiet joy that only comes from love. You are looking for the | safety and security of a loving home, even if it is one only of |
C:14.13 | for nothing but love can be the cause of joy, nor offer a haven of | safety in an insane world. |
C:15.8 | a family or community of supporters, is seen as necessary for your | safety. While many of you do not have this, you strive for it, and |
C:16.13 | an unforgiven world where evil walks, danger lurks, and nowhere is | safety to be found. Each separated one is out for his or her own |
C:16.13 | for his or her own self, and if you do not watch out for your own | safety, surely you will perish. Yet while you watch vigilantly you |
C:16.14 | give up your vigilance because you know no other way to ensure your | safety, and even if you cannot guarantee your safety against |
C:16.14 | way to ensure your safety, and even if you cannot guarantee your | safety against everything all of the time, you believe you can |

C:20.10 | a dream that requires you not to leave your home, your place of | safety and of rest. You are cradled gently while your spirit soars, |

C:P.41 | of the nightmare you choose not to awaken from. It is as if you have | said, I will not open my eyes until someone proves to me that they |

C:3.9 | how this would help you. What is there left to say that has not been | said? What are these words but symbols, by my own admission? It is in |
C:5.3 | I | said earlier, it is only through union with me that you learn, |
C:7.18 | the wisdom of your heart and that of your mind. Your heart may be | said to break, but the image that these words call forth is of a |
C:9.1 | You wonder how it can be | said that your heart is not deceived when it seems so often to |
C:9.19 | It has been | said often that cause and effect are one in truth. The world you see |
C:9.22 | of the thirsty, to welcome and give rest to the stranger. I have | said when you do this unto others you do this to me. Do you think |
C:10.13 | This is not as easily | said about the concept of not being separate, however. The only thing |
C:12.2 | spiritual text to tell you love is the answer, as if it has not been | said before. This message was preached long ago and still the world |
C:12.4 | We have | said before the only meaning possible for your free will is your |

C:15.9 | to make special an act of disloyalty. What’s more, when all is | said and done, you are loyal not only to your group but to humanity |

C:19.18 | As was | said in the beginning, praying is asking. You but asked for your |

C:31.31 | you truly are is the truth, how can you be different? Thus it can be | said that the truth and the mind are one in truth. The truth is what |
C:32.1 | look not at the 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 |

T1:7.4 | is a favored teaching device of the Holy Spirit. But I have not yet | said that the time of the Holy Spirit is ending even though I have |
T1:7.4 | stated that the time of the second coming of Christ is here. I have | said that the time of parables has ended and asked you not to look to |
T1:7.4 | 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 continue to rely |
T2:3.2 | it to the world—to your world—to the human world. As I have | said, in the realm of unity where your being resides, this is already |
T2:4.2 | You are not only part of creation, but as has been | said many times, a creator, and as such a continuing act of creation. |
T2:4.18 | that cannot be measured because of its simultaneous nature. As was | said within A Course of Love, time is but a measurement of the “time” |
T2:4.19 | is the answer to a call that your heart alone can hear. As I have | said, your heart has now become your eyes and ears. Your heart hears |
T2:6.10 | As I have already | said that your heart must exist where you think you are, you can |
T2:8.2 | As was | said within A Course of Love, the one you come to know through |
T2:8.5 | truth and an acceptance that that truth will not change. As we have | said that you are not called to a static acceptance that does not |
T2:8.6 | It was | said often within A Course of Love that the truth does not change. |
T2:9.14 | that you will be constantly seeking to arrive. As has already been | said, you have arrived and rest exists only in the state of unity. |
T2:10.15 | As was | said in the beginning, it is realized that it is hard for you to |
T2:11.8 | Yet, as has already been | said, the ego, having been with you from your earliest remembering, |
T2:11.17 | I have | said that the ego will remain with you as the identity you have |
T3:1.12 | making you, along with me, the accomplished. As has already been | said, the accomplished Self is the Christ. Your remembrance of the |
T3:2.3 | While we have | said you chose the separation, it has not been said that this choice |
T3:2.3 | While we have said you chose the separation, it has not been | said that this choice was the choice it has been made to seem. You |

T3:8.1 | The Kingdom of God is the House of Truth. Or better | said, the House of Truth has been called the Kingdom of God. I remind |
T3:8.3 | as strong as that of the ego and more deeply felt. As I have | said, bitterness is to your heart what the ego has been to your mind. |
T3:8.7 | As was | said in A Course of Love, the idea of suffering is what has gone so |
T3:8.7 | of suffering is what has gone so wrong within God’s creation. As was | said in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought,” the idea of love can |
T3:10.3 | to place blame upon yourself must be given up as well. When it is | said that you are the cause it is not meant that you are to blame for |
T3:12.4 | to an eternal state of consciousness. This change, as has been | said before, is the miracle. This miracle is the goal toward which we |
T3:13.11 | regard them as little more than the self-help kind of advice I have | said this Course would not provide, they are but aides to help you in |
T3:15.8 | of the ego, special relationships too have breathed their last. As I | said before, these will seem to be remedial lessons. What they are, |
T3:15.11 | system of the ego to the thought system of the truth. As we have | said before, it is impossible to learn the new with the thought |
T3:15.11 | illusion. This Course teaches that love cannot be learned. I have | said here that love, peace, and truth are interchangeable ideas |
T3:16.6 | will be, is a change that must occur within. As has already been | said, this change has to do with the time-bound temptations of the |
T3:16.8 | you are not only accomplished, but The Accomplished, it is being | said that you are already what you have sought to be. Thus, in order |
T3:16.10 | By saying that giving and receiving are one in truth it is being | said that you are lacking only in what you do not give. The belief in |
T3:16.14 | relationships have been replaced by holy relationship it is being | said that your only relationship is with the truth and that you no |
T3:17.4 | As has been | said before, time is a measurement of the “time” it takes for |
T3:18.9 | to the new thought system of the truth. Your body, as has been often | said, is a neutral form that will serve you in the manner in which |
T3:19.15 | parallel or comparison, this will not be possible. It has been | said from the beginning that your role will not be to evangelize or |
T3:21.18 | observance forward into observance of your personal self. As was | said at the beginning of this Treatise, by the time the learning of |
T3:21.19 | And yet, what might seem contradictory is that I have | said that we can also use the certainty you have felt about your |
T3:21.23 | It is not being | said that anyone should, or will, remain blind to the unity that |
T3:21.23 | differences such as those of race and religion. It is simply being | said that they do not matter. It will not matter if a person turns to |
T3:21.23 | totally “unlike” him- or herself to find the truth. As has been | said many times, willingness is the starting point and as can be |
T3:22.2 | be available, and it would not be known to you. So even while I have | said that no one is called to leadership and while I have surely |
T4:1.12 | As was | said within “A Treatise on the Personal Self,” even the house of |
T4:1.16 | As was | said within “A Treatise on the Personal Self,” all notions of blame |
T4:2.8 | while ideas such as more and better remain in you. As I have | said before, this is not about evolution unless you wish to speak of |
T4:8.14 | who remains static and unchanging! How could this possibly be | said of one whose name and identity is synonymous with creation? You |
T4:9.5 | thing but in different ways. There seems to be nothing new to be | said, nothing to move you beyond this point that you have reached in |
T4:10.13 | As I | said earlier, some will not be willing to move out of the time of |
D:3.13 | of who you are is different than helping you to learn. As was | said before, you know what you need to know. What we seek to achieve |
D:3.20 | all still of one life-giving and life-supporting system. Can this be | said of any of the systems you have developed as a learning being? |
D:4.20 | This place and this way begins at the prison doors, begins, as we | said earlier, with acceptance of the new and denial of the old. Turn |
D:5.3 | doing now is returning the world to its true representation. As was | said in “A Treatise on the Personal Self”, there is a huge difference |
D:5.9 | will be exposed and the truth will be represented once again. As was | said earlier, this seeing of the truth is the first step as it is the |
D:6.17 | of the thought reversal that now awaits your acceptance. As I | said earlier, we begin by applying this new attitude to the body. |
D:7.2 | our language somewhat to represent the new and restate what was | said earlier as “What you discover in unity is shared.” Learning does |
D:8.2 | something that comes easily to you, something you might have | said or been told you have a natural talent or ability to do. These |
D:9.5 | and a pattern of the separated and thus learning self. When it was | said within this Course that you are an idea of God, and when ideas |
D:9.7 | As we continue, you may feel as if contradictory things are being | said, such as being called to consider what imprisons you and then |
D:11.4 | In the opening page of this Dialogue I | said that you give and you receive from the well of spirit. True |
D:11.10 | thoughts into answers that will provide you with direction. As was | said earlier, you dare not, as yet, turn to your own heart for |
D:11.13 | and take up residence in your heart. We are the sacred heart. As was | said as we began this Dialogue, we, together, are the well of spirit. |
D:11.18 | Self of form, arises. Unity is the Source of these words. So is it | said. So is it the truth. |
D:12.16 | without uncertainty. And you may begin to realize that what has been | said throughout this Course—that all doubt is doubt about yourself |
D:12.17 | to you, you may become more aware than ever before that what I have | said about your way of thinking being insane is true. You think it is |
D:14.7 | It has been | said often that revelation is of God, but remember now that God is |
D:14.13 | put forth in “A Treatise on Unity and Its Recognition” when it was | said that “a treasure that you do not as yet recognize is going to be |
D:14.15 | you which must precede creation of the new world. For as it has been | said: As within, so without. |
D:15.8 | movement of sound. Then we are told the content of the words: It was | said, “Let there be light.” More movement. Only when movement, being, |
D:16.10 | wholeness and the continuing expression of wholeness. While it was | said in “A Treatise on the New”, that “Now is the time to move out of |
D:16.10 | becoming who you are to the time of being who you are,” it was not | said that this time of becoming was completed. |
D:17.10 | Hope, as was | said within this Course, is a condition of the initiate. You have now |
D:17.17 | Desire asks for a response. Earlier it was | said that desire asks for a response while want asks for provision. |
D:Day2.18 | As was | said within this Course, my life is the example life. The way in |
D:Day3.4 | of learning through the mind—learning in often painful ways— | said “no” to learning through the heart. Many of you will admit to |
D:Day3.39 | and certainty, a certainty you had previously lacked. When I | said earlier in this chapter that you are most comfortable learning |
D:Day3.48 | and you may feel a return of feelings of anger here. But we have | said that there is a function for your anger. The function of anger |
D:Day4.34 | What is this all about? Why have we gathered together here? It is | said that during my forty days and forty nights I meditated or |
D:Day4.34 | during my forty days and forty nights I meditated or prayed. It is | said that I fasted. You have been told that you are here to fast from |
D:Day5.4 | As we | said yesterday, our form of meditation, a meditation that is not a |
D:Day6.1 | sustainability of Christ-consciousness, or unity, in form. As was | said earlier: To realize the state of becoming is to realize that an |
D:Day8.15 | worse than gossip. You will sigh, and reference something someone | said or did that but shows that they are not yet as “advanced” as |
D:Day9.11 | As was | said earlier, all of your images are false images. Isn’t it possible |
D:Day10.12 | as well as with the new and the forgotten. This is why it has been | said that the certainty that comes from access to unity may be less |
D:Day15.13 | prevents you? Do not be too hard on yourself now, for as has been | said, the stones within your pools are like flecks of sands within |
D:Day17.3 | Why do we return to this now, repeating what has been | said before? Because we have reached the time, once again, for you to |
D:Day17.4 | to a new means of knowing? Christ-consciousness. This is why it was | said in the beginning pages of the Course that the Christ in you was |
D:Day18.3 | As has been | said, the time of teaching and learning is over. If the way of Jesus |
D:Day24.3 | any number of ways, only one of which is by your choice. When it was | said that A Course of Love was a trigger, it was meant that the |
D:Day26.1 | It has been | said that you are the source and the power of coming to know and |
D:Day28.18 | or wholeness, new conditions will apply. This is why it has been | said that the changes that are to come are not about time-bound |
D:Day28.20 | constant that has not been affected by the variable of time. | Said in another way, eternity and time are part of the same continuum |
D:Day32.15 | God, it has revealed to you the truth of relationship. As has been | said before, if separation had severed relationship, then separation |
D:Day33.7 | you are one in being and different in relationship, what is being | said is that being and relationship are of one piece, one whole, and |
D:Day34.8 | the power of God? To let it flow through you? Realize how many have | said no to this request. Realize the importance and the power of your |
D:Day35.3 | in relationship with God who is your being. But while it has been | said that you are one in being and different in relationship, |
D:Day35.4 | with all because God is in relationship with everything. It has been | said that when you reach awareness of the state of unity, you can’t |
D:Day35.6 | ground, you will also retain the mountain top experience. As was | said before, the mountain came to you. You will thus always have the |
D:Day35.17 | it must be thought of so that you understand creation. It has been | said before that creation is continuous and ongoing. It is continuous |
D:Day35.18 | by creation, however, is also not the entire story, for as has been | said many times, means and end are one, cause and effect the same. |
D:Day35.18 | stood apart from wholeness. What is not created in unity could be | said to have been made rather than created. The world as you know it |
D:Day35.21 | reached maturity and begun to make choices. While it has just been | said that you will create in unity and relationship much as you |
D:Day36.10 | is everything. This same difference is what is meant when it is | said that you are one in being and different in relationship. Without |
D:Day37.13 | here that you are being, and God is being, and that it is not being | said that either you or God are “a” being) you have power—the power |
D:Day37.15 | this, you might ask, if you are one in being with God, is it being | said that you are being God? That you have been being God even within |
D:Day37.16 | Unfortunately, this is not what is being | said. What is being said is that you are simply being. You are being |
D:Day37.16 | Unfortunately, this is not what is being said. What is being | said is that you are simply being. You are being a feeling, thinking, |
D:Day40.6 | you might call your personality or even who you are. As has been | said before, you saw these attributes of being as making you separate |
D:Day40.10 | or science. Jesus or Martin Luther or Muhammad may have been | said to have created religions, but these creations, in their |
D:Day40.11 | attributes, no form, no conditions, no nature. It simply is. It was | said earlier that being is as Love is. This was a reference to my |
D:Day40.11 | to my being, to my being love. I have reconfirmed this statement and | said I am the anchor that holds all that has taken on attributes |
D:Day40.11 | in being God, as in being human, being takes on attributes. As was | said earlier, this was meant to provide for the individuation process |
D:Day40.13 | Recall what was | said earlier: Christ-consciousness is the awareness of existence |
D:Day40.14 | God and the attributeless love. This is why it can be rightly | said that God is Love and Love is God. But I am also an extension of |
D:Day40.25 | How often have you | said or felt, when confronted with some insensitivity toward |
A.5 | that creates the perception of this Course’s difficulty. Thus it is | said to you to take this Course with as little attachment to your old |
A.5 | to a friend in conversation. Listen simply to hear what is being | said. Listen simply to let the words enter you. |
A.35 | yet this is not merely about entering spoken dialogue. As was | said in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought,” “Creation is but a |

C:7.15 | you demand can range from admiration to money, but it is all the | same and the demand is always there. It is the ransom that you insist |

C:7.18 | one side another. While your brain and your mind are not the | same, your image of your mind and what it does and does not do is |

C:12.2 | This message was preached long ago and still the world remains the | same. How could this be the correct answer when this is so? Life is |
C:12.12 | Yet what of you? You, too, seem to have remained the | same for countless ages. Perhaps you believe that long ago you |

C:14.14 | for the return of love is coming and you do not want to make the | same response again. |
C:14.19 | dress it up to look like sacrifice and gifts given, but all with the | same purpose in mind. What none realize is that fear has replaced |
C:14.20 | great deceiver. Whether they call it life or death, it is still the | same. It is the chance that cannot be foreseen but is always there: |
C:14.22 | one source. Call it fear or call it separation but it is still the | same. For in your separated state you ask that love make you special |
C:14.23 | can only be made to seem to fit your goal of separation, and the | same is true of love. You cannot change what love is or what heaven |
C:14.23 | rightness and your success after you are gone. Love you give the | same purpose, but bid it do the job of rewarding you here and now. |
C:14.31 | instead how loving all as one can bring harm? If you love all the | same, what loss is there to anyone, including the one you would |
C:16.1 | common source does not make any of you special, but all of you the | same. |
C:16.2 | leads you not to see sameness anywhere at all, for what is the | same cannot be special. |
C:16.3 | this child is no less than any other child, and what he seeks the | same as any other. Yet if this child grows up with behavior that |
C:16.3 | love he seeks, and that he is now less than those who once were the | same as he. What is the same does not change and become different. |
C:16.3 | he is now less than those who once were the same as he. What is the | same does not change and become different. Innocence is not replaced |
C:16.5 | is what judgment does to all of you who believe that what is the | same can be made different. This is as true of the love you reserve |
C:16.6 | for conflict. Judgment makes different. It looks past what is the | same and sees it not and sees instead what it is looking for. What |
C:16.21 | and do not want those who have no power to possess it through the | same weapons or might that you claim make those in authority |
C:16.24 | and think what a barbaric time that was, and yet you repeat the | same history but in different form. If a talented physician were to |
C:17.18 | What is the | same cannot have different functions. And now your mind and heart |
C:18.14 | all that you created. You did not desire and fear something at the | same time, and your desires did not change from moment to moment. |
C:18.22 | what causes pain nor that you can reject the experience of it. The | same is true of pleasure. |
C:19.15 | that what you most need to know cannot be achieved through the | same methods you have used in order to know about other things. And, |
C:19.17 | as all concepts are born from the mind’s separate thoughts. Yet this | same mind could still conceive of a creator. A mind that can conceive |
C:19.23 | before you can look back in a new way and not simply cover the | same ground you have covered a million times, seeing causes for |
C:20.29 | is to release its power. While expression and action are not the | same, understanding their relationship to each other is essential. |
C:21.4 | on thought concepts, thus allowing heart and mind to speak the | same language or to be communicated with in the same way. |
C:21.4 | mind to speak the same language or to be communicated with in the | same way. |
C:21.7 | just as if you were two people acting on different truths in the | same situation, conflict cannot help but continue. No matter which |
C:21.7 | the path of unity will take you, and the journey will not be the | same. |
C:21.8 | In such an instance the external and internal meanings of the | same situation are considered to be different. This is fairly easy to |
C:21.10 | Those who know the truth become beings of love and light and see the | same loving truth in all. |
C:22.16 | to observe you as you are within your world. Would you still be the | same person in a laboratory? Are you still who you are when another |
C:23.6 | The | same is true of your relationship with God. As in any love |
C:23.8 | caused you to make God over in your own image and to try to do the | same to others. This comes of seeing oneself as an image rather than |
C:25.3 | nothing. But those who have tried to fake love cannot do it. The | same is true of devotion, because there is no real devotion without |
C:25.22 | upon the very lessons you are in the process of unlearning. At the | same time, however, decisions and choices will seem to need to be |
C:26.20 | answers have disappointed you in the past. Your answer is not the | same as any other. No matter how filled with wisdom one person’s |
C:26.22 | Think a moment of a novel or movie with no plot. This would be the | same as saying that there was no idea brought to completion within |
C:27.11 | look about and see that no two bodies on this earth are exactly the | same, the Self you are is a unique Self. A Self of relationship does |
C:27.11 | Self. A Self of relationship does not imply a Self that is the | same as all the rest. But it does imply a Self that is integral to |
C:29.5 | as it is for any wider goal of unity, for they are the | same goal. Wholeheartedness is unity regained. Your return to unity |
C:29.14 | time for work and time for leisure and seeing them not as the | same thing. Life is life. Life is. As love is. |
C:29.15 | God and service to God. All of the vast universe was created the | same: to live and to serve life, to be of God and be of service to |
C:29.23 | of the right to serve? No two are alike. Only in God are all the | same. |
C:30.1 | How is being present different than being? Are they not the | same thing? Should they not be? And yet how seldom are you fully |
C:31.4 | understand that something can be inseparable and still not be the | same. The miracle of turning water into wine illustrates, as all |
C:31.4 | cannot be different, but this does not mean it must be the | same. Inseparable does not mean replaceable. Water does not replace |
C:31.4 | Water does not replace wine nor wine water, yet each are from the | same source, and so they are not different even while they are not |
C:31.4 | source, and so they are not different even while they are not the | same. |
C:31.5 | fear, though understandable given your concept of what is the | same and what is different. Yet, as your forms so readily illustrate, |
C:31.5 | Yet, as your forms so readily illustrate, while all bodies are the | same, they are also different. Form but imitates content. |
C:31.6 | you. Does it work independently from you? Is it separate? Is it the | same? |
C:31.7 | to many of you with brain, an interchangeable word that conveys the | same idea. Mind is the control center, that which remembers and |
C:31.21 | The | same is true of your potentials, which brought to love are |
C:31.33 | in truth. Giving and receiving are both taking place, both at the | same time, as are seeking and finding, once you are aware of what it |
C:31.36 | of those relationships and have an investment in them staying the | same. Since this is most often true for them as well, you too become |
C:32.2 | Love. The difference between Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is but the | same difference of which we speak when we assure you that you are of |
C:32.2 | of the Trinity is different despite the oneness of the Trinity. The | same is true of all relationship with everything. The way in which |
T1:2.3 | truth and apply to that experience the thoughts of the ego-mind, the | same thoughts that were applied to former experiences of the truth, |
T1:2.3 | to former experiences of the truth, would be to respond to love the | same way again. The questions you have asked concerning how love |
T1:2.7 | To think that you could learn the truth of who you are through these | same means was the fallacy that the early teaching of A Course of |
T1:3.2 | from the experience of illusion is the experience of truth is the | same as seeing how different the art of thought is from the thinking |
T1:3.23 | of making the wrong choice in your choice of miracles. This is the | same as a fear of scarcity. For surely the working of one miracle |
T1:4.3 | Course in Miracles began with a definition of miracles. Both are the | same. Prayer and the art of thought are the same. This should serve |
T1:4.3 | miracles. Both are the same. Prayer and the art of thought are the | same. This should serve to make it clear that the request I have made |
T1:4.13 | about dealing with an outside world. While both may result in the | same or similar actions does not negate the need for the difference |
T1:4.21 | the lessons your life has brought you. You will experience the | same lessons in the same way, rather than in a new way, if you meet |
T1:4.21 | life has brought you. You will experience the same lessons in the | same way, rather than in a new way, if you meet these experiences |
T1:4.22 | The saying, “The truth shall be revealed to you” is the | same as saying “Your Self shall be revealed to you.” |
T1:4.25 | We must backtrack a little here to do the | same exposition that we did in regard to miracles in regard to |
T1:6.7 | can share many similar experiences without relating to them in the | same way. It is the way experience is related to, through memory, |
T1:8.2 | known this not. For the resurrection and life are now one and the | same. |
T1:8.3 | That they are the | same has not meant the automatic realization of this change of |
T1:9.12 | you from the ego’s reign, you have turned toward wholeness. In the | same way that embracing both the male and female attributes within |
T1:10.2 | joy or sorrow for you are, or have been, attracted by both for the | same reason, the reason of wanting to be fully engaged in the human |
T1:10.6 | learning choice without choosing to return to learning in the | same way again. You no longer need these experiences to alert you to |
T2:3.7 | synonymous. Creation is a continuous and on-going expansion of the | same thought of love that brought life into existence. The seeds of |
T2:3.8 | In this | same way, then, Christ can be seen as the seed of your identity. |
T2:3.8 | identity. Christ is the continuous and on-going expansion of the | same thought of love that brought life into existence. Christ is your |
T2:4.1 | life during your time here. It is all one because it is all from the | same Source. |
T2:4.2 | that you are at the mercy of fate. Fate and creation are hardly the | same thing. You are at the mercy only of your own ego and only until |
T2:4.5 | by any number of factors. Either way, the result would always be the | same; a sudden change from ease of movement to struggle, from going |
T2:4.8 | response is one that recognizes that giving and receiving are the | same in truth. |
T2:4.14 | of where you are now. However, to accept where you are is not the | same as accepting who you are. Accepting where you are, as if it is a |
T2:7.14 | have needs. That you are a being who exists in relationship is the | same as saying you are a being who needs relationship. The only thing |
T2:9.5 | relate to “having” needs? By identifying needs in such a way, in the | same way that you identify “having” in regards to possessions, you |
T2:9.7 | from survival needs to needs for love are literally shared in the | same measure by all. The other sense in which needs are shared is in |
T2:9.7 | they are known. Every being inherently knows that it shares the | same needs as every other being of its kind. Every being also |
T2:9.7 | knows that needs and the fulfillment of needs are part of the | same fabric—they are like puzzle pieces that fit together. Other |
T2:9.7 | Doing what needs to be done in order to survive is hardly the | same as feeling that one has a need. Needs are the domain of the |
T2:10.7 | to experience, you are not being told that you have exactly the | same knowledge as does every person of every variety and level of |
T2:10.12 | words, as long as you would continue to attempt to learn in the | same way that you have previously learned, you will not learn because |
T2:11.9 | holiest of work and the final evidence of means and end being the | same. Your devotion to this learning must now be complete, your |
T2:11.13 | is contingent upon relationship for its existence, is this not the | same thing as saying that you are a being who exists in relationship? |
T2:12.5 | in miracles and your belief in atonement or correction are the | same thing. While you believe there is anything other than your own |
T2:12.6 | simply knowing, the learning goal in relation to the miracle is the | same—it is one of going beyond belief in the miracle to simply |
T2:12.7 | and the power of prayer, once aligned, call constantly upon the | same power of intercession that is the miracle. This is why we also |
T3:2.3 | have assumed. This is the assumption you have accepted in much the | same way you have accepted your free will as that which allows you to |
T3:2.4 | you but think you made, this discussion was necessary only in the | same terms that made it necessary to thoroughly discuss the ego’s |
T3:3.2 | not loveable and then I will know your love is true.” You make this | same statement to yourself as well, seemingly called to continuously |
T3:6.1 | still desire recognition and affirmation from them, this is not the | same as the “rewards” you seek—some of you from God, some from |
T3:7.6 | you like a house with many doors. You have chosen many doors to the | same house and but thought them to offer different things, only to |
T3:7.6 | things, only to find that the house you entered was still the | same house, the house of illusion. You took yourself into these many |
T3:10.8 | that will help you to become aware of this change. While much the | same as forgetting it will seem to have a different process in |
T3:11.3 | interchangeable in the House of Truth as their meaning there is the | same. These words, like the words House of Truth represent an |
T3:13.5 | now that pleasure and pain as perceived by the body are from the | same source. That source has not been the body but your beliefs about |
T3:15.6 | or failure and their own timing for the accomplishment of the | same. Some would see six months of change as the basis for trust in |
T3:15.11 | system of the old. It is impossible to learn the truth through the | same methods that have been used in the past to learn illusion. This |
T3:15.17 | to the laws of man. If you continue to act as if you are still the | same being that you have represented yourself to be in the past, you |
T3:16.2 | that willingness is the only offering that is required of you is the | same as saying that you do not need to, and in truth, cannot, give |
T3:17.8 | beginning and the end the end. The beginning we speak of here is the | same as the end we speak of here. The time of the Holy Spirit, or the |
T3:20.8 | way, but all situations within the house of illusion call for the | same response, the response of love to love. Why think you it is |
T3:20.19 | the circumstance of suffering or illness is not different but the | same as every other circumstance you will encounter. You will |
T3:21.2 | The truth is not symbolic. It is. It is the | same for everyone. |
T3:21.15 | words, the world you were born into, regardless that it was the | same world as all other human beings were born into, is also |
T4:1.10 | spoken of here. But all means are for one end. All will learn the | same content, for all are chosen; and all learning, no matter what |
T4:1.11 | make the choice to come to know your Self and God now. This is the | same as being asked if you are willing to be the chosen of God. This |
T4:1.11 | being asked if you are willing to be the chosen of God. This is the | same question that has been asked throughout the existence of time. |
T4:1.11 | such. All are chosen and so it could not be otherwise. But at the | same time, it must be seen that your choice matters in time, even if |
T4:1.11 | be seen that your choice matters in time, even if all will make the | same choice eventually. |
T4:1.16 | back exists at all, for the truth exists in the present. This is the | same as saying the truth exists within you. It is in this way that |
T4:1.17 | through observation and direction communication or experience. The | same truth has always existed, but the choice of a means of coming to |
T4:1.19 | in relationship. Means and end are one. Cause and effect are the | same. It is these indirect means of communicating the truth that have |
T4:1.21 | in relationship. Means and end are one. Cause and effect are the | same. |
T4:2.12 | briefly hold is of a finite nature, that others will soon do the | same, and that those who follow in time will do so more easily, with |
T4:2.31 | Have you considered this question? Have you expected to see in the | same way but more lovingly? Have you thought you might begin to |
T4:3.2 | Observation and vision are closely linked but not the | same. Observation has to do with the elevation of the personal self. |
T4:3.13 | to be done with the separated state of a being of form, and at the | same time to hang on to life; not realizing that what exists in form |
T4:4.1 | is everlasting life. Means and end are one, cause and effect the | same. |
T4:4.10 | contemplating death might wish for prolonged life, but many of these | same welcome death as the end to suffering and strife. To continue on |
T4:5.3 | The one body is one energy given many expressions in form. The | same life-force courses through all that exists in matter in the form |
T4:5.5 | that has been created. You are the substance of the universe. The | same energy exists in the stars of the heavens and the waters of the |
T4:5.9 | The | same is true of you! You cannot express yourself independently of the |
T4:5.12 | the intermediary and to begin to learn directly, you are given the | same opportunity that was formerly reserved for you only after your |
T4:5.13 | yours, that determines the way in which your life will continue. The | same is true right now! For this is the time of Christ and thus of |
T4:7.7 | return you to your Self and the unity of Christ-consciousness. The | same is true of all conditions of all learning everywhere. The |
T4:8.2 | now are you beginning to be ready to hear that you and God are the | same. That when I say “God made a choice” I am not saying that you |
T4:9.5 | new. You have begun to see that all messages of the truth say the | same thing but in different ways. There seems to be nothing new to be |
T4:9.9 | so much through your learning and your study and your sharing of the | same may find it difficult to leave it behind. A choice made by you |
T4:10.8 | other than the Self. Means and end are one, cause and effect the | same. Thus this applied learning produced things and perceived |
T4:10.9 | to do with your Self. Means and end are one, cause and effect the | same. Thus this accomplished learning produced unity and relationship |
T4:12.3 | learn as one. They are beginning to see that their questions are the | same. They are beginning to see that they share in means not confined |
T4:12.10 | as a learning being. While these dialogues continue to address these | same questions and concerns, you will be prone to think of them as |
T4:12.27 | natures. The means were different for each, but the pattern was the | same. There was an overall design that ensured optimal learning and |
D:1.2 | self who is “other” than you, but as a divine Self who is the | same as you. In our union we bear the sameness of the Son of God. In |
D:1.19 | and wonder how you, as a reader of these words, can feel that | same way. You can feel that same way by realizing that you are, as |
D:1.19 | a reader of these words, can feel that same way. You can feel that | same way by realizing that you are, as you read these words, as much |
D:1.20 | I say to you here, I say to you. It matters not that I say these | same words to many, for you and the many who join you in receiving |
D:2.2 | of denial—it can thus be seen that they are, in truth, one and the | same action, just as means and end, cause and effect are one. You are |
D:2.3 | or resisting the old patterns. Patterns are not in quite the | same category as the false remembering you were able to purge through |
D:2.12 | This will not often prevent you from trying the | same thing again although at times it will. No matter what you try, |
D:3.5 | of the rift between heart and mind returned you to your Self. In the | same way, the mending of the rift of duality will return the world to |
D:3.5 | Sustaining Christ-consciousness will accomplish the | same thing in your world. |
D:3.8 | elevated Self of form are able to work with ideas birthed from the | same source. |
D:3.12 | are thus one within the shared consciousness of unity, which is the | same as saying giving and receiving are one in truth. A shared |
D:4.1 | the new. As you are new, so too is God, for you are one, if not the | same. As you are new, so too is the world, for you are one, if not |
D:4.1 | As you are new, so too is the world, for you are one, if not the | same. As you are new, so are your brothers and sisters, for they, |
D:4.1 | so are your brothers and sisters, for they, too, are one, if not the | same. |
D:4.2 | While not the | same, you also are not different. The differences you saw during the |
D:4.4 | of those who see not what it means to be neither different nor the | same but to be one. |
D:4.10 | these terms separately so that we see the nature of existence in the | same way and speak the same language while discussing it. |
D:4.10 | so that we see the nature of existence in the same way and speak the | same language while discussing it. |
D:4.31 | are, and your commitment to the Covenant of the New, are one and the | same, these reasons will disappear. All the different reasons you |
D:4.31 | reasons you would cite become what they are—one reason, the | same reason—and you will see that what is one is neither the same |
D:4.31 | the same reason—and you will see that what is one is neither the | same nor different. You will see that there is one answer, an answer |
D:4.31 | there is one answer, an answer different for everyone and yet the | same for everyone. That answer is acceptance of your Self. That |
D:5.2 | what the world around you was meant to represent. It was in much the | same way that the ego came to represent you. |
D:6.2 | stated again. But as we enter this new time of elevated form, these | same ideas—ideas that many of you attached to form rather than to |
D:6.6 | previously seen it, for everything that exists in form is of the | same Source. Even those things you have made you have not made from |
D:6.11 | This | same kind of attitude still governs your ideas about the body and the |
D:6.11 | you are no longer living in an “if this, then that” world, then the | same laws will naturally not apply. You developed an “if this, then |
D:6.11 | that scientific or natural law and the law of spirit are not the | same. |
D:6.14 | experienced as a body—a suspension of belief that comes in the | same spirit as that of the Native American who knows that the sun may |
D:6.24 | You have accepted your true identity. How could the body now be the | same as it once was? |
D:7.3 | to separate day into night. Resting and waking will be part of the | same continuum of being. |
D:7.8 | to the senses. But let me repeat that all that lives is from the | same Source, and there is nothing more alive than mind and heart |
D:7.12 | Discovery is not the | same as remembrance. Remembrance was necessary for your return to |
D:7.17 | of each Self, and is a demonstration of means and end being the | same. Desire keeps you focused on your own path and leaves you |
D:9.7 | you and then being called to reconsider. The call is still the | same, but the means by which you are considering the call has |
D:9.9 | The | same is true of the beliefs set forth in “A Treatise on the Nature of |
D:10.3 | forward, you think in error and limit your expression in much the | same ways that the effort of teaching and learning limits them. It is |
D:11.2 | think of the thought or idea of God by which you were created as the | same type of thought I have just described would be insane. Are you |
D:11.2 | your thoughts that differentiate you from others. Do you think the | same is true of you and me? It is that you think that differentiates |
D:11.2 | differentiates you from me, not our content, which is one and the | same. |
D:11.10 | Self, as do all answers. Your desire to make of me a teacher is the | same as your desire to make your thoughts into answers that will |
D:11.13 | words give evidence that I know who you are and that they give the | same evidence to your brothers and sisters that I know who they are, |
D:12.4 | mind and heart joined in unity and became capable of hearing the | same language, you truly began to enter the place of unity, to take |
D:12.8 | your response—to become a means of communication and exchange. The | same is true of the “thoughts” these words symbolize. Thus we |
D:12.9 | established that the thoughts that arise from unity are not the | same as the thoughts that arise from the thought system of the |
D:12.11 | saying that your ego is still at work because you still think in the | same way as before. I am about to make the two main points of this |
D:13.12 | joyful and effective. Cause and effect become one. Means and end the | same. |
D:15.1 | to know the way of creation as it is. It has not always been the | same, and it will not be the same in the future as it is now. But |
D:15.1 | as it is. It has not always been the same, and it will not be the | same in the future as it is now. But there are certain principles |
D:16.5 | through Creation. Means and end are one. Cause and effect the | same. Creation is means and end as God is means and end. Creation is |
D:17.7 | You offer up your glory and call it down from heaven, both at the | same time. |
D:Day1.11 | name by which it is called. You may think that it all comes from the | same source, regardless of what the practitioner of healing calls it, |
D:Day1.27 | it with you. You long for and desire me because our story is the | same. You are living my story as I lived yours. They are one story. |
D:Day2.20 | My life consisted of the | same major elements as yours: Birth through childhood, maturity, and |
D:Day3.4 | did new ideas about love, not realizing that they were one and the | same. |
D:Day3.21 | are done, but only to the degree in which you feel you are in the | same circumstances of those to whom you complain. To speak of money |
D:Day3.21 | unafraid to ask for a “hand out” or free lunch, experience these | same emotions, the buildup of anger, resentment, and shame. |
D:Day3.30 | Just as so many of you are thankful for your good health while at the | same time dreading the disease that may at any point take it from |
D:Day3.30 | point take it from you, those of you who have money see it in the | same way. You may go along just fine for weeks or months or years, |
D:Day3.30 | health until the slightest pain makes you think of cancer. In this | same way, there are not any of you, those who have money or those who |
D:Day4.2 | side wrong. We must begin with the realization that we are on the | same side. The arguments we will be having will be meant to show you |
D:Day4.7 | man’s journey, early man was not a being who learned in the | same way that you do. Early man had no language. His mind was not |
D:Day4.9 | product of an externalized system. That you all attempt to learn the | same things, and in coming to identify the world in the same way— |
D:Day4.9 | to learn the same things, and in coming to identify the world in the | same way—the way that has been taught—think that you have |
D:Day4.48 | Your desire and your access are one and the | same. If you desire this transformation wholeheartedly, if you make |
D:Day5.2 | For each of you this access point will in truth be the | same, but perhaps quite different in the action which you use in |
D:Day5.6 | on for some time now is love. Love never changes. It thus is the | same for each of us. Yet not one of us expresses love in exactly the |
D:Day5.6 | same for each of us. Yet not one of us expresses love in exactly the | same way as another. This is important to remember now as you begin |
D:Day5.7 | and Love—as we have within this work shown them to be—are the | same. |
D:Day5.8 | Thus, access too is the | same. It exists. It is there for you. It is given. It cannot be |
D:Day5.13 | you know love is not an attribute and that all love comes from the | same Source. You know you have been able to “give” love only when you |
D:Day5.13 | as one within your own heart. You might think of access in the | same way—as enabling you to realize that you “have” the benefits of |
D:Day5.15 | here that although you are now a part of a community seeking the | same goal, the realization, or “making real” of your accomplishment, |
D:Day5.15 | real” of your accomplishment, and its expression, will not look the | same way twice. What you each desire from union most will be what |
D:Day5.16 | ways the healer expresses love. In truth healing and love are the | same. |
D:Day6.20 | knew I had attained. The temptations of the human experience are the | same now as they were then. They are the same on the mountain top as |
D:Day6.20 | human experience are the same now as they were then. They are the | same on the mountain top as they are on level ground. A “place” that |
D:Day8.6 | to assume that the conditions you did not like yesterday will be the | same today. |
D:Day9.22 | holds him or herself separate. They realize not that they are the | same as the one they idolize, but realize only that they are |
D:Day9.22 | but realize only that they are different. In “wanting” to be the | same and not realizing sameness, they fail to celebrate their own |
D:Day9.29 | of expression. You, too, were once a young child. You are still the | same self you were then. You are, however, a self in whom the freedom |
D:Day10.19 | similar to your own. You have been unable to see the two as the | same for you have not realized this sameness in yourself. This |
D:Day10.20 | —the voice of Christ-consciousness. Yet to realize that this is the | same voice that animated the man Jesus two thousand years ago will |
D:Day10.31 | for the times in which I lived? Or do you not see that it is the | same now as then? |
D:Day10.32 | for extreme measures. The only extreme measure called for now is the | same extreme measure that I called for during my life. It is the call |
D:Day10.39 | and give newly now, to you. Blessed brother and sister, we feel the | same love, the same compassion, the same tenderness for each other |
D:Day10.39 | now, to you. Blessed brother and sister, we feel the same love, the | same compassion, the same tenderness for each other and the world. |
D:Day10.39 | brother and sister, we feel the same love, the same compassion, the | same tenderness for each other and the world. This is unity. This |
D:Day13.7 | The | same is true of all you would fear, such as the suffering self. A |
D:Day14.4 | spacious Self, by not forgetting that the one and the many are the | same, by willfully remembering that the feelings of the many can be |
D:Day15.23 | knew yesterday was as nothing to what you know today, while at the | same time, aiding in the realization that what you come to know has |
D:Day17.1 | is Christ? What is Christ-consciousness? Are they different or the | same? |
D:Day18.5 | all faiths are called to example lives and to representation of the | same truth. All faith is faith in the unknown through knowing, as a |
D:Day18.7 | the myth of duality or the truth of union, you are demonstrating the | same thing. The way in which you do this must be chosen, and for this |
D:Day20.5 | The truth is the truth. It doesn’t change. It is the | same for everyone. |
D:Day21.6 | make teacher and learner equal. Means and end have always been the | same. |
D:Day22.3 | and through spiritual channels, without realizing that both are the | same because both require a choice, a choice to allow entry or union. |
D:Day22.6 | It does not matter that everyone’s function is the | same because no one expression of this same function produces the |
D:Day22.6 | everyone’s function is the same because no one expression of this | same function produces the same results. No one who is in union with |
D:Day22.6 | same because no one expression of this same function produces the | same results. No one who is in union with God is in union with the |
D:Day27.8 | and become as intrinsic to who you are as is breathing. In this | same way, the dualistic seeming nature of all of life will be |
D:Day27.11 | hot and cold, sickness and health are each just opposite ends of the | same continuum, you can now see that they are only distinguished by |
D:Day28.7 | that seem to help guide the choices, but the choices remain the | same: Externally directed choices. |
D:Day28.17 | that you have made, on the externalization of what is within. At the | same time however, what is within has been based upon what was |
D:Day28.20 | of time. Said in another way, eternity and time are part of the | same continuum as are properties such as hot and cold. They are part |
D:Day28.20 | as are properties such as hot and cold. They are part of the | same whole that is the constant of all that is whole—all that is |
D:Day29.1 | you can also have the experience of all other “opposites” in this | same, simultaneous way. If you can integrate all that opposes |
D:Day30.3 | of what was named or denominated. Existence and wholeness are the | same. Thus your existence, the existence of the self, is, or can be, |
D:Day31.4 | not be experienced without division. Wholeness and oneness are the | same. You are one in being with your Father, your Creator, the |
D:Day32.15 | of All and not also be man? How can God be all that is and at the | same time not all that is? How can God be the All Powerful and Living |
D:Day32.19 | answer your questions concerning how God is both different and the | same? Would this answer your questions concerning God’s great power |
D:Day33.7 | are being given to you so that you do not respond to love in the | same way again. This wording may make love sound as if it is an |
D:Day33.13 | power for yourself, some means of exerting that power, which is the | same as saying some means of individuating the self. |
D:Day34.1 | of destruction. Yet creation and destruction are two sides of the | same continuum as are hot and cold, darkness and light. Seeing in |
D:Day34.1 | seeing the opposites that seem to exist at these two ends of the | same spectrum. If the new way of seeing the Self just spoken of— |
D:Day34.2 | Creation simply does include destruction in much the | same way all includes nothing. Without relationship, all and nothing |
D:Day34.2 | all includes nothing. Without relationship, all and nothing are the | same. In relationship, the difference between all and nothing is |
D:Day34.2 | destruction. Without relationship, creation and destruction are the | same. In relationship, the difference between creation and |
D:Day35.2 | the cause for love. Means and end are one. Cause and effect the | same. Fullness of being is thus the answer that you have sought and |
D:Day35.16 | in which it exists has produced the idea of separation, while at the | same time, humankind’s desire for separation produced unawareness of |
D:Day35.16 | has led to awareness of union and relationship while at the | same time union and relationship has led to this desire. Creation |
D:Day35.18 | been said many times, means and end are one, cause and effect the | same. You have been “creating” but relating to creation in |
D:Day36.10 | relationship. In relationship, the difference is everything. This | same difference is what is meant when it is said that you are one in |
D:Day36.18 | being and the truth of being in union and relationship. Both at the | same time. Both/and rather than either/or. Cause and Effect. Means |
D:Day36.19 | be able to accept this new idea which is simply the truth. It is the | same truth that has been stated here in many different ways to allow |
D:Day37.23 | creation of Jesus Christ himself, is not all of God, while at the | same time it is all of God just as Jesus was and is all of God. In |
D:Day37.25 | Jesus was all of God and God was all of Jesus while at the | same time each was different or individuated by being in union and |
D:Day38.13 | are each other’s own being. We are one and we are many. We are the | same and we are different. In “own”-ership we are full of one |
D:Day39.16 | occurred in the past so that you know not to respond to love in the | same way again. |
D:Day39.37 | who you are and who I Am, because who you are and who I Am are the | same being in the constant creative tension of differentiating from |
D:Day39.38 | This is a time of knowing who you are and who I Am while at the | same time, holding, or carrying, the mystery within you. That mystery |
D:Day40.8 | It becomes who you are. Both beings and thus both extensions are the | same. The differences have arisen through becoming. For with the |
D:Day40.27 | remember who I Am? That I Am everything being love? This is not the | same as saying you are who you are in relationship to your mother, |
E.4 | moon or God Himself, attempting to learn what they are. They are the | same as you. All exist within you. You are the universe itself.” |
E.21 | humanness or you will not and they will be gone. Do not expect the | same unhappiness with yourself. You are fine. You are being. You are |
A.24 | not about reaching an ideal state or a state of identity exactly the | same as another’s. It is also not about being selfless. These ideas |
A.26 | continue to this next level. The next level brings with it the | same situation the reader encountered in receiving the Course, but |
A.29 | forward motion, regardless of a group’s configuration, is still the | same. It is one movement away from learning and toward acceptance of |
sameness (27) |

C:16.2 | you wish for, and your wish for specialness leads you not to see | sameness anywhere at all, for what is the same cannot be special. |
C:19.12 | and sisters, and place your belief not in differences but in | sameness. |
C:20.30 | beauty, as many-faceted as the gems of the earth. I say again that | sameness is not a sentence to mediocrity or uniformity. You are a |
C:31.5 | Your fear of | sameness is your fear of oneness, and it is an unfounded fear, though |
C:31.8 | various cities, but all of you rely on the one Earth as part of a | sameness and interdependence you accept. You are aware that this |
C:31.36 | often true for them as well, you too become locked into the expected | sameness. |
T2:7.10 | this Treatise, this Course has not called you to a static state of | sameness, an acceptance of who you are that does not allow for |
T3:4.2 | The | sameness that this Course calls you to is not a sameness of body or |
T3:4.2 | The sameness that this Course calls you to is not a | sameness of body or of habit. It asks not for monks or clones. It |
T3:21.20 | is that the very differences that you seem to have will be seen as | sameness by some and will attract them to you and to the truth you |
D:1.2 | as a divine Self who is the same as you. In our union we bear the | sameness of the Son of God. In going forth with the vision of unity |
D:11.13 | are the shared consciousness of unity. In our union we bear the | sameness of the Son of God. In going forth with the vision of unity |
D:Day1.13 | about one being more and others less. This is simply the way to | sameness of being, to the reunion of all, from the holiest of the |
D:Day5.17 | as the goal you now desire to realize. Again I remind you that the | sameness of union is not about becoming clones or one specific type |
D:Day9.22 | they are different. In “wanting” to be the same and not realizing | sameness, they fail to celebrate their own difference and do not |
D:Day9.22 | to celebrate their own difference and do not bring the gift of their | sameness, or of their difference, to the world, but hold it in |
D:Day9.25 | and the holiness of who you are. A creator who desired only | sameness would not have created a world of such diversity. You are a |
D:Day9.27 | are has been taught out of you by learning practices that sought for | sameness, and saw not your differences as the gifts they are. |
D:Day10.19 | unable to see the two as the same for you have not realized this | sameness in yourself. This sameness of the person you are and |
D:Day10.19 | the same for you have not realized this sameness in yourself. This | sameness of the person you are and Christ-consciousness, of union and |
D:Day18.4 | from the rest. It is full acceptance of difference as well as | sameness and of the necessity of each. It is a choice many will be |
D:Day18.4 | the necessity of each. It is a choice many will be called to so that | sameness is seen in difference, the one is seen in the many, and the |
D:Day21.6 | others less. But even the pattern of learning had as its outcome the | sameness of teacher and learner—the transfer of knowledge that |
D:Day34.3 | to create difference. However, relationship with everything creates | sameness—or the very oneness in being that we have been talking |
D:Day34.5 | is fulfilled in you, you will create a new world—a world based on | sameness rather than difference. You have faced and admitted your |
D:Day34.8 | together by asking each other to experience our power—the power of | sameness of being. Are you willing to experience the power of God? To |
D:Day35.7 | an idea of oneness come to replace an idea of separation, an idea of | sameness come to replace an idea of specialness, an idea of |

C:19.6 | Your | saving grace is that even a separated self yearns for union and |
T2:11.15 | that there is something real that you need defense against or | saving from. This is how the notion of Christ as savior arose. This |

C:19.10 | relationship. To see your brothers and sisters as those of long ago | saw me is the way to achieve relationship of the highest order and |
C:22.19 | “to you.” This kind of thinking is thinking with the small “I.” “I | saw.” “I felt.” “I thought.” “I did.” The individual, personal, |
T3:1.11 | and never a whole self as evidenced by the variety of selves you | saw yourself to be. The personal self of the past was a self of |
T3:1.11 | roles, each one as learned as that which an actor might portray. You | saw nothing more amiss in being a professional self in one instance |

T4:2.28 | see my brothers and sisters “in Christ” or in their true nature. I | saw them in union and relationship, where they saw themselves in |
T4:2.28 | their true nature. I saw them in union and relationship, where they | saw themselves in separation. This ability to see in union and |

D:1.24 | is a transference of purpose concerning your body. What once you | saw as yourself, you now must come to see only as a representation of |
D:4.2 | While not the same, you also are not different. The differences you | saw during the time of learning, differences that made you feel as if |
D:4.15 | world around you based upon the differences, or contrast that you | saw. |
D:5.7 | the desired effect of creating desire for oneness if you truly | saw and understood the body and its acts as representative of truth. |
D:Day3.3 | In the area of the body came another form of learning about which you | saw yourself as having little choice. When the body had something to |
D:Day7.2 | would not have been needed had you not denied your Self. When you | saw yourself as separate and alone, you could not help but suffer |
D:Day9.27 | out of you by learning practices that sought for sameness, and | saw not your differences as the gifts they are. |

C:2.12 | Again, I stress to you, this is not about looking upon misery and | saying to yourself you see it not. I am not an advocate of |
C:4.13 | is most lacking and you use that image to chastise yourself while | saying this is what you want. |
C:5.4 | Union is impossible without God. God is union. Is this not like | saying God is Love? Love is impossible without union. The same is |
C:5.16 | yourself, as you picture the real world being beyond your doors, but | saying this cannot make it so. |
C:6.15 | Those who live with failure seek success. Put another way, both are | saying this: you seek to make sense of an insane world, to find |
C:8.10 | speak openly of these levels of seeing, recognizing, and knowing, | saying often, “On the surface it would seem that…” and this |
C:9.27 | such situations, not only to your brother but also to you. It is in | saying, “Sister, you are not alone” that spiritual hunger and thirst |

C:22.21 | I or my. Quit referring to people and things in terms of ownership, | saying “my boss,” “my husband,” “my car.” |
C:23.26 | What you term as being in control is simply another way of | saying acting on old beliefs. As long as you attempt to remain in |
C:26.22 | a moment of a novel or movie with no plot. This would be the same as | saying that there was no idea brought to completion within the pages |
C:27.10 | thus who you are and who God is? Is it such a huge leap to go from | saying you only exist in relationship to you only exist as |
C:28.12 | the point of what you have gained. You may be asking now, “Are you | saying to do nothing?” At the thought of this you will be aghast and, |
C:29.13 | terms of your perception of it. Your schedule is just another way of | saying your life, and an alternative view of how you look at your |
T1:4.22 | for reasons for self-congratulation in favor of Self-revelation. The | saying, “The truth shall be revealed to you” is the same as saying |
T1:4.22 | The saying, “The truth shall be revealed to you” is the same as | saying “Your Self shall be revealed to you.” |
T2:7.14 | That you are a being who exists in relationship is the same as | saying you are a being who needs relationship. The only thing that |
T2:10.2 | This belief was first expressed in A Course in Miracles by the | saying resign as your own teacher. This belief in the self as teacher |
T2:11.13 | upon relationship for its existence, is this not the same thing as | saying that you are a being who exists in relationship? Is this not |
T2:11.13 | you are a being who exists in relationship? Is this not similar to | saying that a living human body does not exist without its heart? Is |
T3:1.8 | I began this Treatise by | saying that the personal self exists as the self you present to |
T3:3.2 | or unlovable. Yet you have also often made them challenges to love, | saying in effect to those who love you, “Love me in spite of these |

T4:1.24 | world have been demanding to learn directly, through experience, and | saying “no more” to the lessons of the intermediaries. What has grown |

T4:4.18 | of the appeal of the physical experience. What this Treatise is | saying to you is that if the physical experience appeals to you, and |
T4:8.2 | and God are the same. That when I say “God made a choice” I am not | saying that you did not. I am saying that a choice was made within |

T4:8.8 | You might ask how, if what I’m | saying is true, could God disconnect from himself? What God could not |
T4:12.12 | was time to once again move out into the world. What he was really | saying was that he saw the dawning of his contentment as the sign |
D:3.12 | one within the shared consciousness of unity, which is the same as | saying giving and receiving are one in truth. A shared consciousness |
D:12.11 | ego mind; thoughts are more descriptive of the true mind. I am not | saying that your ego is still at work because you still think in the |

D:Day1.10 | This would be like | saying, “If I am an astronaut, I can reach outer space without a |
D:Day1.26 | be the story of creation. A chain of events is merely another way of | saying cause and effect. The chain of events of creation include, |
D:Day2.11 | accepting what had occurred and moving on? You might counter this by | saying that if you had been the adulterer, the cause of the divorce, |
D:Day4.2 | temptations of the human experience, which is just another way of | saying all that you have learned; on the other side will be the |
D:Day8.14 | judgment because you will have made a predetermination, just as in | saying you do not like your job, you predetermine a continuing |
D:Day16.10 | told there are but two emotions, love and fear. What this is really | saying is that there are but two ways to respond to what you feel— |
D:Day20.4 | minds and hearts and have been sharing in this dialogue. The way of | saying this perhaps is new, but the way of saying this is the |
D:Day20.4 | this dialogue. The way of saying this perhaps is new, but the way of | saying this is the expression of the human being receiving it. The |
D:Day29.4 | already exists into the reality in which you exist. Another way of | saying this is bringing who you are into wholeness, which can be |
D:Day30.3 | is, or can be, a common denominator of wholeness. In our act of | saying it is so, we name or denominate the Self as what is common to |
D:Day31.2 | with circumstances or events that are separate from the self. In | saying this, you express your realization of relationship but no |
D:Day33.13 | yourself, some means of exerting that power, which is the same as | saying some means of individuating the self. |
D:Day35.18 | is different than being affected by the ongoing nature of creation. | Saying that you have been affected by creation, however, is also not |
D:Day37.2 | difficult to see that God is being? This is not much different than | saying that the most basic truth about you is that you are being— |
D:Day37.22 | power of man and God together, the power of creation. What this is | saying is that there is a God the Father to relate to and that this |
D:Day40.25 | you know that I am an individual? That I have feelings?” Are you | saying this now, as you contemplate leaving behind who you have been |
D:Day40.27 | who I Am? That I Am everything being love? This is not the same as | saying you are who you are in relationship to your mother, and your |
D:Day40.27 | mother, and your mother who she is in relationship to you. This is | saying that you are who you are in relationship to all that is love. |
D:Day40.27 | you are who you are in relationship to all that is love. This is | saying that this is who you are and that this is who I Am. |
D:Day40.28 | Further, this is | saying that who you are being in relationship to all that is love is |
D:Day40.28 | that you are in relationship with, you extend who you are. This is | saying that through the application of your being to all that you are |

C:19.21 | This going back is the journey without distance. You need not go in | search of it, and in truth, cannot, for the past does not abide in |

C:P.16 | You who have come close to truth only to turn your back and refuse to | see it, turn around and look once again. You have traveled your path |
C:P.16 | back on a world familiar to you, and choosing it instead. You do not | see that this choice, even made with every good intention of going |

C:P.29 | This is the way it has always been, they cry. They lament that they | see but one real world while heaven waits just beyond their |
C:P.32 | them as well. Yet you meet an author face to face and you can seldom | see in them what you saw in their writing. When you meet an author |
C:P.33 | Content is all you have of God. There is no form to | see, yet in the content is the form revealed. This is true seeing. |
C:P.39 | existed in history. This is the same way in which you are able to | see yourself—as man or woman, as a being existing in a particular |
C:P.39 | nature of your seeing is the nature of the problem. If you cannot | see yourself “other than” as man or woman living in a particular |
C:P.39 | woman living in a particular place in a particular time, you cannot | see your Self. Thus Jesus comes to you again, in a way that you can |
C:P.40 | becoming one. You are well aware of the fact that if you could not | see the transformation take place “with your own two eyes,” you would |
C:P.40 | transformation without being able to show you proof that you could | see would be accused of making up a fairytale for your amusement. |
C:P.41 | How many of you | see the story of your own self in this same frame of mind? It is a |
C:P.41 | I will not open my eyes until someone proves to me that they will | see when they are opened. You sit in darkness awaiting proof that |
C:1.14 | have succeeded against mighty adversaries. It is the only way you | see to prove your power and control over a world of chaos. To not |
C:1.14 | you are well aware you will not win the game you play here, you | see the effort to do so, no matter how futile, as being that which |
C:2.1 | know that it is there? Oh, yes. You do it constantly by choosing to | see illusion rather than the truth. You cannot be taught love but you |
C:2.1 | than the truth. You cannot be taught love but you can be taught to | see love where it already exists. The body’s eyes are not the eyes |
C:2.10 | Self is the Christ in you. How could it be anything but love, or | see with eyes other than those of love? Would you expect any decent |
C:2.10 | in you sees with eyes of love. The difference is the eyes of love | see not the misery or despair. They are not there! This is the |
C:2.10 | miracle is true seeing. Think not that love can look on misery and | see love there. Love looks not on misery at all. |
C:2.12 | To be compassionate as God is compassionate is to | see as God sees. Again, I stress to you, this is not about looking |
C:2.12 | this is not about looking upon misery and saying to yourself you | see it not. I am not an advocate of heartlessness but |
C:2.13 | Reverse this thought and | see if it makes any more sense than it did before. In this scenario a |
C:2.14 | What answer then is left but that you do not | see reality for what it is? What benefit is left to you in seeing |
C:2.14 | is left to you in seeing incorrectly? What risk in attempting to | see anew? What would a world without misery be but heaven? |
C:2.17 | of the ego. Your thought system is what has made the world you | see, the ego its constant companion in its construction. |
C:2.19 | peace and contentment offered by your learning. It can and does | see itself as better and stronger and more capable of worldly |
C:3.4 | and God are there, but they are not the form that your body’s eyes | see. Just as these words you see upon this page are symbols only of |
C:3.4 | are not the form that your body’s eyes see. Just as these words you | see upon this page are symbols only of meaning far beyond what the |
C:3.4 | can suggest, so too is everything and everyone around you, those you | see and those you only can imagine. To seek the “face” of God, even |
C:3.4 | of Christ, is to seek for what is forever without form. To truly | see is to begin to see the formless. To begin to see the formless is |
C:3.4 | seek for what is forever without form. To truly see is to begin to | see the formless. To begin to see the formless is to begin to |
C:3.4 | form. To truly see is to begin to see the formless. To begin to | see the formless is to begin to understand what you are. |
C:3.5 | All that you now | see are but symbols of what is really there before you, in glory |
C:3.5 | imaginings. Yet you persist in wanting only what your eyes can | see and hands can hold. You call these things real and all else |
C:3.5 | eyes on all that you have become accustomed to seeing. And you will | see the light. |
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 Christ, the |
C:3.7 | is no form that is not thus. A form is but a representation. You | see a thousand forms a day with different names and different |
C:3.7 | one you place in relationship to yourself, and so you do not even | see the form as it is but only as what it will do for you. You |
C:4.21 | made of love in a world of madness, and hope that you will live to | see the day when you can leave the madness behind, and that you will |
C:4.22 | Love, they say, cannot be set apart, and so they feel love not, nor | see it either. Yet they too recognize love for what it is when they |
C:4.26 | that brings about the joining of all the world for all the world to | see. This joining of the world within is but your recognition of what |
C:5.2 | real, rejoice that there is a way to end this chaos. The world you | see is chaos and nothing in it, including your thoughts, are |
C:5.8 | banks as well as your museums as palaces to your love and no longer | see the golden calves hiding within the palace walls. |
C:5.13 | Do you | see the practicality of this lesson? What terror can be caused by an |
C:5.15 | This is all the two worlds are made up of. The one you | see as real is the one you keep outside of yourself, making it |
C:5.15 | possible to look upon it with your body’s eyes. The one you do not | see and do not believe in is the one you cannot look outward to see, |
C:5.15 | 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. To look inward at |
C:5.16 | You look outside the doors of your home and, whether you | see suburban streets bathed in lamplight, streets that steam with |
C:5.23 | definition of life, and while it remains it defines the life you | see as real. It presents you with a thousand choices to make, not |
C:5.31 | in contact with and the world would be heaven indeed, as all you | see became blessed by your holiness. That you move through your world |
C:5.32 | which you walked. This is what awaits you as you join with what you | see. This awaits you as you place no judgment on the world, and in so |
C:6.3 | so. Only when you quit wishing for what cannot be, can you begin to | see what is. |
C:6.8 | is holy because of what you are. Every contrast that you | see here but points to this truth. Evil is only seen in relation to |
C:6.8 | relation to good. Chaos is only seen in relation to peace. While you | see these as separate things you do not see what the relationship |
C:6.8 | relation to peace. While you see these as separate things you do not | see what the relationship would show you. Contrast demonstrates, |
C:6.14 | of success, or so you reason. The contrast that you have come to | see in your separated state makes only either/or situations possible. |
C:6.21 | What harm do you expect happy thoughts to do to you? At best you | see them as delusional. But what you fear is disappointment. All that |
C:6.22 | You have been so successful at deception that you no longer can | see the light unaided. But join your brother and the light begins to |
C:7.8 | As you learn that what you give you will receive in truth, you will | see that what abides within your heart is all that is worthy of your |
C:7.9 | Let us return now to what you would withhold, and | see the effects that this withholding has upon yourself and the world |
C:7.15 | You do not | see this as withholding, but what you claim for yourself at another’s |
C:7.18 | is one of the most difficult tasks of the curriculum. It is easy to | see why this is so when you recognize how bound your thinking is to |
C:7.21 | must not depend on interaction as you understand it. It is easy to | see the relationship between a pencil and your hand, your body and |
C:7.21 | to unseen and unverifiable diseases. You have given others, whom you | see as having more authority than you, license to provide you with |
C:8.2 | This curriculum aims to help you | see that your emotions are not the real thoughts of your heart. What |
C:8.10 | seem that…” and this observation is often followed by attempts to | see beneath the surface to find causes, motivations, or reasons for a |
C:8.11 | from wrong, truth from lies, fact from fiction. You do not even | see that what you desire is further separation, and that separation |
C:8.12 | what the noble cause you deem yourself willing to address. You would | see into another’s mind and heart in order perhaps to help them, but |
C:8.13 | Do you | see now why unity and wholeness go hand in hand? Why you cannot |
C:8.15 | and to convince you of the illusion of your separateness. Step back. | See your body as just the surface layer of your existence. It is what |
C:8.18 | time. As you stand back and observe your body, this is what you will | see: a form moving through time and place. You may be more aware than |
C:8.19 | but as you observe you learn to hold yourself apart from what you | see. A reminder is needed here, however, a reminder to not observe |
C:8.24 | by the thought system that gave it birth. To observe this is to | see its reality. To see this reality is to see the image of God you |
C:8.24 | system that gave it birth. To observe this is to see its reality. To | see this reality is to see the image of God you have created in God’s |
C:8.24 | To observe this is to see its reality. To see this reality is to | see the image of God you have created in God’s likeness. This image |
C:8.29 | one day deceive you while what your heart beholds will the next day | see through the deception. And so one day lived in your world is |
C:9.5 | in which you sit and take away the usefulness from each thing you | see in it. How many items would you keep that you now look upon? Your |
C:9.7 | to know everything but only through its own effort, a desire to | see everything but only through its own eyes, a desire to be known |
C:9.7 | what it would choose to share. Alongside these desires it is easy to | see how a world such as that of the body developed. Alongside the |
C:9.7 | desire to know was the desire not to know. Alongside the desire to | see was the desire not to see. Alongside the desire to share was the |
C:9.7 | not to know. Alongside the desire to see was the desire not to | see. Alongside the desire to share was the desire to be hidden. |
C:9.8 | —to go on believing in the illusion you have made, or to begin to | see the truth. |
C:9.15 | it is from fear that all the rest proceeds. Surely it is easy to | see that neither the desire to control nor to protect would exist |
C:9.18 | you seek to end your loneliness can do so if you but learn to | see relationship differently. As with all your problems in |
C:9.18 | light the Christ in you would shine upon the darkness. Can you not | see that when you chose to make yourself separate and alone you also |
C:9.19 | said often that cause and effect are one in truth. The world you | see is the effect of fear. Each one of you would have compassion for |
C:9.19 | it makes sense to you to attempt to dispel a child’s nightmare, you | see no way to dispel your own. You hide fear beneath the surface, and |
C:9.19 | each alternative label you would give it, in a desperate attempt to | see it not. To live in fear is, indeed, a curse, and one that you |
C:9.20 | This is the only way you have been able to | see to bring relief to the nightmare of a life of fear. You project |
C:9.23 | Is this not your way of solving all the problems that you face? You | see what you do not want and try to replace it with its opposite. |
C:9.25 | the next meal for yourself and those within your care? You do not | see all that these distractions of meeting needs would keep you from. |
C:9.28 | seen this kind of distortion take place within the reality you do | see? Is this not the story of the gifted son or daughter who |
C:9.31 | no needs at all. What you truly are cannot be used, not even by God. | See you not that it is only in illusion that you can use others who |
C:9.32 | can be of use to others and to yourself, the more worthwhile you | see it as being. Ages have passed since creation began, and still you |
C:9.33 | gift of free will is so falsely placed in illusion that you cannot | see this madness for what it truly is. Your body has no use for your |
C:9.34 | world what you will. Now you look upon this world with guilt and | see it as evidence of your evil nature. It reinforces your belief |
C:9.38 | label drudgery and the things you label exciting. In doing so you | see yourself as “spending your time” wisely, and you call yourself a |
C:9.42 | places upon you? The same question can be asked of this world you | see as home to the body. Which is master and which is slave when both |
C:9.43 | leads to bondage, and so to perceive a world based on use is to | see a world where freedom is impossible. What you think you need your |
C:9.47 | that God did create: A world so lovely and so peaceful that when you | see it once again you will cry with joy and forget your sadness in an |
C:9.48 | desires, the desire to love and the desire to be loved. Why wait to | see that these desires are all that call you to the strange behavior |
C:9.49 | to stand separate and use the rest to support your separate stance. | See you the difference in these two positions? In what way is your |
C:10.4 | at the source, and this is as true of illusion as of the truth. You | see your body as your self, and your self as “source” of all that you |
C:10.5 | try to think these maladies away, and when they do not succeed they | see this as further evidence of their entrenchment in the body. |
C:10.16 | is a choice you need not make. As your learning advances you will | see that this is possible, but there may be reasons not to choose |
C:10.17 | choice might lead to happiness instead of this, you will begin to | see a difference in your body’s response to what appear to be |
C:10.20 | needed to be made. Yet if the separated self can look back and | see that it chose being right over being happy, it will congratulate |
C:10.20 | despite its unhappiness and say, “I did the right thing.” It will | see itself as victor over the foolish dreams of happiness and say how |
C:10.23 | surface aspect of your existence and fear lies beneath the surface, | see the advantage of this exercise: Place your body out in front of |
C:10.27 | You will soon develop an ability to | see without your body’s eyes. This, too, will seem like a silly game |
C:10.27 | your shadow falling as you walk—but more and more you will come to | see the body as a whole. You will see it from behind as you follow it |
C:10.27 | but more and more you will come to see the body as a whole. You will | see it from behind as you follow it about its day, without, at first |
C:10.28 | “down” upon yourself? And can you skip along and get in front to | see your body coming toward you? |
C:10.29 | claim to be your “self” is but a form—how can it be that you can | see it not? |
C:10.30 | too that are not bound to the body. Like the thoughts you neither | see nor hear with your body’s eyes or ears, these feelings too will |
C:11.6 | Willingness and faith go together. What you have faith in, you will | see. This Course asks for your willingness to have faith in something |
C:11.7 | is your declaration of openness, not necessarily of firm belief. You | see free will and willingness together and while they are the same, |
C:11.11 | You do not | see that what you choose to do with your free will matters not to God |
C:12.3 | Your own failure to be happy and the unhappiness of the world you | see. |
C:12.10 | contradiction, the one contradiction that has created the world you | see and the life you live. Although it is impossible for something to |
C:12.12 | it was meant to be. On a lovely day and in a lovely place you can | see that creation’s paradise still exists, but nowhere can you find |
C:12.17 | on their own apart from you. Imagine this occurring and you will | see how senseless this situation would be. Could a trip happen on its |
C:12.18 | their lives and wonder how they got from here to there, and some may | see that one idea took root and changed what seemed to be a destiny |
C:12.24 | Son in any way. Replace the word Father with the word Creation and | see if this does not help to make this concept clear. Could |
C:14.1 | you have made. Think but a minute of this, and you will begin to | see the enormity of the difference in these two purposes. |
C:14.2 | in which you view yourself as the epitome of God’s creation, you | see the rest of creation as being meant to serve your ends. And since |
C:14.4 | Do you not | see how your notion of heaven being an attainment you can reach only |
C:14.6 | If you can | see the senselessness of a creator and a creation such as this and |
C:14.11 | a relationship so intense that at its peak you would have begun to | see its continuation without change as the major goal of your life. |
C:14.12 | have made if you are but willing to look at it with eyes that truly | see. It is the magnifying glass that will allow you to see your world |
C:14.12 | that truly see. It is the magnifying glass that will allow you to | see your world in all its mad confusion. For what caused you such |
C:14.18 | Yet, since only what you know is part of your universe, do you not | see that it depends on you, and if it depends on you that it is you? |
C:14.26 | Give another specialness, and you keep it for yourself as well as | see it in them instead of seeing their glory. Specialness keeps them |
C:15.1 | but what of the specialness you desire for yourself? Do you not | see how intricately linked these two desires are? The desire to give |
C:15.1 | specialness is the driving desire of your life, and the world you | see but reflects this desire. Love’s opposite would not exist but for |
C:15.2 | What harm is there in specialness? Only all the harm you | see within the world. |
C:15.3 | and deception. Be truthful as you examine yourself and you will | see that this is so. |
C:15.4 | It is more difficult to | see that this desire for specialness does not stop with what would |
C:15.4 | for specialness, but not you. Yes, taken on a grand scale, you can | see that this desire can wreak havoc; but still you would not believe |
C:15.11 | herein lies your problem. For at the turning point you look back and | see one other you cannot betray, and one other whose special |
C:16.2 | what you wish for, and your wish for specialness leads you not to | see sameness anywhere at all, for what is the same cannot be special. |
C:16.4 | and to those you claim to love with a special love. For you do not | see them in the changeless innocence in which they were created and |
C:16.6 | Without judgment there would be no separation, for you would | see no difference between yourself and your brothers and sisters. |
C:16.6 | it the truth, except as it is the truth about what you choose to | see. Your choice lies with God or with the self you believe you have |
C:16.6 | in separating from Him, and based on this choice alone is how you | see determined. |
C:16.7 | for constant judgment is required to maintain the world you | see. The Holy Spirit can replace your specialness with a special |
C:16.9 | Child of God, | see you how important it is that you listen to your heart! Your heart |
C:16.9 | it is that you listen to your heart! Your heart does not want to | see with judgment or with fear. It calls to you to accept forgiveness |
C:16.10 | and opposes it on the basis that it uses no judgment! Here you can | see the value that you place on judgment, even to the ridiculous |
C:16.12 | Forgiveness looks on innocence and sees it where judgment would | see it not. |
C:17.5 | knowing because the reason that you use is loyal to the world you | see. This is why even Heaven, which you would label good, is not |
C:17.12 | See you now why those who judge cannot enter heaven? Judgment | |
C:17.15 | from the other. They are not different, and while you do not | see this your thoughts remain based on fear and fear thus remains |
C:17.16 | will give, even to deciding to forgive despite your better judgment. | See you not how little sense this makes, how insincere this even |
C:17.17 | as separate parts of you. This is simply because this is the way you | see them, and because it has allowed me to address the different |
C:18.6 | have ascribed to it, and so its way of functioning. If you do not | see it as the result of a fall, as a curse, as a punishment from God, |
C:18.6 | a dwelling place that keeps you separate, then you can begin to | see it as what it is, a learning device given you by a loving |
C:18.6 | to fulfill that need was established. You have simply failed to | see it as such. |
C:18.8 | life that you experience now taking place much like that you would | see projected on a movie screen. You have not left your place as you |
C:18.8 | this is but what this Course’s exercises have attempted to help you | see: a world you can observe and learn in and from, for as long as |
C:19.8 | who I was, even while in human form. I tell you truly if you were to | see any of your brothers and sisters today as those who awaited my |
C:19.10 | except through union. Here, union is achieved in relationship. To | see your brothers and sisters as those of long ago saw me is the way |
C:19.11 | were distorted or misinterpreted, you can still revisit them and | see that this is so. I did not proclaim myself to be above or |
C:19.12 | 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 your |
C:19.12 | united with the Christ. You thus must learn to see yourself as you | see your brothers and sisters, and place your belief not in |
C:19.24 | Knowledge is light, and the only light in which you can truly | see. You will not truly desire to unite your mind and heart in |
C:19.24 | desire to unite your mind and heart in wholeheartedness until you | see clearly. One purpose of the distinctions you have made between |
C:20.2 | love. Drink in the safety and the rest. Close your eyes and begin to | see with an imagination that is beyond thought and words. |
C:20.8 | And now we begin to | see with the eyes of our heart. We are no longer looking out but |
C:20.8 | within the embrace. Within the embrace our sight clears and what we | see is known rather than understood. |
C:20.32 | Let the fear be taken from this area of your thought so that you can | see the application of cooperative action. As long as you fear your |
C:20.41 | when you give in to making judgments. Look deeply and you will | see that what you would call your imperfections are as chosen and as |
C:20.43 | and sisters are also beings of perfection. When you begin to | see them as such, what you will receive from them is far grander than |
C:20.47 | a matter of perception, and are things your mind has been trained to | see as being within its scope. It is as if you have cordoned off a |
C:21.2 | the particular. The particular is about parts and parts are all you | see. I remind you of what was said earlier concerning relationships |
C:21.5 | needed in a certain circumstance have demanded cooperation. You | see this in times of emergency or crisis of every kind. And like the |
C:21.7 | the past, accepted these different interpretations as natural. You | see that there are two ways of viewing a situation, even if you do |
C:21.8 | situation are considered to be different. This is fairly easy to | see in extreme circumstances, but it is a situation that exists |
C:21.9 | is the truth and does not change. Only unity, however, allows you to | see the truth and to claim it as your discovery and your truth as |
C:21.10 | a certain dogma or a set of facts. Those who know the truth do not | see themselves as right and others as wrong. Those who know the truth |
C:21.10 | heart. Those who know the truth become beings of love and light and | see the same loving truth in all. |
C:22.18 | of here, the finding of a definition, a personal meaning. Can you | see the difference? |
C:22.23 | This intimacy itself will allow you to | see your “self” as an integral part of all that exists within your |
C:23.12 | If form is an extension of belief you can | see why what you believe is critical to how you live with form. We |
C:23.12 | large, the heart from the large to the small. Only the wholehearted | see the connection of all. |
C:23.17 | depends upon what you can imagine being possible. You must cease to | see the difficulty and begin to see the ease with which what you can |
C:23.17 | being possible. You must cease to see the difficulty and begin to | see the ease with which what you can imagine becomes reality. |
C:25.18 | on greater importance, the reverse will at first be true. You will | see little in what you do that matters. You will wonder why you are |
C:26.7 | here. To have no meaning to attach to your life is the tragedy you | see within it and attempt to keep hidden from yourself. This fear |
C:26.23 | acceptance of the idea or the story that is you. Can you not | see that you were birthed into a place in the pattern of God’s |
C:27.11 | 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 same, the Self |
C:27.18 | mean that you will have power that is not of this world? Will you | see the future and the past, be cognizant of destiny and of fate? You |
C:27.18 | power that is not of this world, but this does not mean power as you | see it here, the power of details and the information of which you |
C:28.8 | a time of great humility. Of wearing the face of Christ for all to | see. For here is wisdom gained and shared. |
C:28.9 | Do you not | see that any attempt to turn bearing witness into a convincing |
C:28.10 | abound, and what they bear witness to stops short of what they would | see. |
C:29.2 | stature. Others think of it in terms of charity, and continue to | see a difference between those who would serve and those who would be |
C:30.11 | you will be secure, if you are “good” you will prosper. You do not | see these ways of thinking as ideas associated with gain and loss, |
C:30.13 | life is seen to be over. Are you thus your heart? Or can you not | see that the created form was made in God’s own image, as was all |
C:31.6 | is your being and so you can study it not, no more than you can ever | see the entirety of your body unaided, or remove your own brain to |
C:31.11 | perception that causes you to protect your private thoughts and | see them as the seat of yourself calls for the exact opposite of |
C:31.28 | answers means nothing. If you but change what you look for, what you | see and what you learn will also change. |
C:31.29 | reflecting back what you think your brothers and sisters want to | see, they can learn nothing from you. If your truth about who you |
C:31.36 | mode concern you. You may determine someone is in a “mood,” and | see that the effects of that mood are either good or bad, for either |
C:32.1 | those who do not know the difference for your answers. Now you can | see that you need to look to a different source. |
C:32.2 | for the asking: What would love have me do? What would love have me | see? What would love have me say? When you call upon Love you call |
T1:2.13 | 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 sky, to see the variety |
T1:2.13 | To look at a sunset is to see an object, the sun. It is also to | see the sky, to see the variety of colors displayed, to see the |
T1:2.13 | a sunset is to see an object, the sun. It is also to see the sky, to | see the variety of colors displayed, to see the horizon. It is to see |
T1:2.13 | is also to see the sky, to see the variety of colors displayed, to | see the horizon. It is to see the surrounding area, perhaps to see |
T1:2.13 | to see the variety of colors displayed, to see the horizon. It is to | see the surrounding area, perhaps to see the play of clouds among the |
T1:2.13 | to see the horizon. It is to see the surrounding area, perhaps to | see the play of clouds among the descending rays, perhaps to feel the |
T1:3.3 | for effort. Because it sees only rewards and not gifts, it cannot | see that gifts are shared. Because it cannot see that gifts are |
T1:3.3 | not gifts, it cannot see that gifts are shared. Because it cannot | see that gifts are shared, it cannot afford to see relationship. |
T1:3.3 | Because it cannot see that gifts are shared, it cannot afford to | see relationship. Because it believes it is on its own it cannot see |
T1:3.3 | to see relationship. Because it believes it is on its own it cannot | see the higher order. Because of all of this, it cannot experience |
T1:3.5 | For only if you begin to live as if the truth were otherwise can you | see that it truly is otherwise, or based on a wisdom other than what |
T1:3.9 | just what kind of miracle would be most convincing to you since you | see this exercise as what it is, an attempt to convince you to think |
T1:3.11 | to lose any of you here, but such is your fear that you can already | see your own loss. As great as the fear of miracles is, the fear of |
T1:3.12 | behind. Can you not, from this one example of your fear of miracles, | see the glaring reality of all you still would fear? |
T1:3.24 | See you not the choices made in each of these scenarios and the | |
T1:4.3 | and generalizable than your old habit of thought has led you to | see. Miracles are, in other words, a way of thinking, the new way |
T1:4.4 | Now that we have more properly identified the miracle, you must | see that your Self is what is in need of identification and |
T1:4.13 | to be realized. Charity is a responsibility. Love is a response. | See you not the difference? Can a father not be guided by |
T1:4.16 | available. It is the gift given in everything you look upon and | see without the obstacle of the ego-mind’s interpretation. |
T1:4.17 | moment of this interpretation. That each of you interprets what you | see, read, hear, smell, and touch differently must mean something. |
T1:4.17 | everything on your own. Without further discussion, you would | see interpretation and response quite similarly and this would but |
T1:5.3 | of Love seem all but impossible. If not for the suffering that you | see all around you, the choice for Love would have been made. If the |
T1:5.3 | been made. If the choice for Love had been made, the suffering you | see around you would be no more. This is the paradox. |
T1:5.4 | is insane, that both welcomes and fears visions and abilities you | see as being currently beyond your capabilities. |
T1:5.9 | reason, when you have freed your self, that you will look back and | see how easy this one choice really is. |
T1:6.3 | the act of consciously choosing union. With this definition, you can | see how your life can become a prayer. This does not negate the fact |
T1:6.4 | accessible only through a specific means of communication. You can | see, perhaps, how this attitude toward prayer came about, as it is, |
T1:7.1 | achieve what you would choose to achieve. The true way in which to | see this prerequisite to the condition of suffering is as the |
T1:7.2 | My use of the word accept is important here, as these may not | see suffering as pain but only as a natural part of being human that |
T1:8.7 | resurrection provide a path or example for you to follow? You must | see the link between resurrection and incarnation, the link between |
T1:9.15 | most valued. Now your response will have been changing. You will not | see so much to value in what has called your ego into action and will |
T1:10.13 | Yet let the memory of the truth return to you now and you will | see that peace is all you have sought learning to attain. If you do |
T2:1.5 | instruction, you would soon return to your old ideas of heaven and | see peace as a state of being for those too weary to fully live. Done |
T2:1.5 | yourself no longer interested in the hunt for buried treasure and | see it not. |
T2:1.7 | You may still | see but two choices: peace or struggle. But with such an attitude, |
T2:1.13 | to think of an elaborately framed painting. Thoughts joined in unity | see beauty. You are used to thinking that if you do not have a |
T2:3.1 | have ever thought or imagined is and is reflected in the world you | see. The only difference between the life you are living and the life |
T2:3.4 | be ignored. Now you have realized your learning. You have begun to | see the changes that your learning is capable of bringing to your |
T2:3.7 | to learn what beautiful music is, only how to express it. If you | see beauty within, you do not have to learn what beauty is, only how |
T2:4.15 | You must be beginning to | see that your thought processes, the very thought processes that tell |
T2:4.19 | that old pattern with a new pattern of response, you will begin to | see that each new response is the answer to a call that your heart |
T2:6.1 | would place upon yourself. Cease adhering to the rules of time and | see how much more the language of your heart becomes known to you. |
T2:6.10 | that your heart must exist where you think you are, you can begin to | see that this change in thinking will release your heart, returning |
T2:11.15 | as if there are two identities that exist within you and you will | see yourself as doing battle in countless ways and forms. There will |
T2:11.15 | of the power of your thinking and its ability to shape the world you | see? |
T2:12.5 | understand miracles, you will be reluctant to believe in them or to | see yourself as a miracle worker. Your belief in miracles and your |
T2:12.7 | receive but something you must learn to give. As you have come to | see calling as a gift and a treasure as well as a learning device, so |
T2:12.7 | and a treasure as well as a learning device, so you must come to | see your own ability to call forth intercession as a gift and |
T3:1.3 | of the ego as the self is what has led to the world you | see. A true representation of the Self that you are is what we work |
T3:3.2 | their source has still been the ego. These traits, whether you | see them as good or bad or somewhere in between are what you have |
T3:3.9 | because failure is deemed a certainty. While you continue to | see the call of this Course as a call to goodness, you will surely |
T3:5.4 | was spent in making repairs and this time spent kept you too busy to | see the light that was always visible through the cracked and peeling |
T3:6.1 | that has become like unto a plague among you. While many of you | see it not, everything you do is based upon desire for reward. This |
T3:6.1 | seem to suggest that the child is less than the parent. Although you | see yourself as the child of your mother and father, this notion of |
T3:7.2 | A belief system is not needed for the truth. Thus you can | see that the beliefs put forth in “A Treatise on Unity” are necessary |
T3:7.2 | that God created you with a thought or idea, then you can begin to | see the power of thought. If you can believe that you created the ego |
T3:7.2 | believe that you created the ego with a thought or an idea, you can | see where the power of thought is your power as well as God’s. |
T3:7.9 | theory and related it to the origins of the universe, and still you | see not the source. There is a reason for this. The reason is that |
T3:8.1 | still a worthy goal and many of you have reached this power. You can | see why this power has been necessary and continues to be necessary. |
T3:8.4 | are attached to, I want you to think of attachments for a time and | see how bitterness does indeed fit into this category. Bitterness is |
T3:8.5 | you, have been falsely made to suffer, a suffering for which you | see no rationale. Those who believe in past lives have also often |
T3:8.6 | at your own inability to relieve it? And do you not thus attempt to | see it not and then blame yourself for looking the other way? |
T3:9.2 | While you cannot now | see the chain of events that will make these ideas into a new |
T3:9.3 | requires no new learning at all. You will be tempted, at first, to | see things that are like unto those within the house of illusion and |
T3:9.4 | You will | see that the house of illusion was just a structure built within the |
T3:9.4 | No one stands beyond the embrace of love and you will be glad to | see that those who remain within the house of illusion could not |
T3:11.12 | tell you in truth that you are no different than I am, then you must | see that you cannot begin to think of yourself as different than your |
T3:11.13 | You must not | see your brothers and sisters within the house of illusion but must |
T3:11.13 | see your brothers and sisters within the house of illusion but must | see them where they truly are—within the House of Truth. As soon as |
T3:11.14 | I remind you here that you are not being asked to | see anything that is not the truth. This is why the word see is |
T3:11.14 | asked to see anything that is not the truth. This is why the word | see is consciously used here and why we now refrain from use of the |
T3:11.14 | use of the word perceive. Perception is gone as soon as you truly | see. |
T3:13.4 | of love is truth. What is of fear is illusion. The temptation is to | see love where it is not and to not see fear where it is. But your |
T3:13.4 | illusion. The temptation is to see love where it is not and to not | see fear where it is. But your ability to distinguish between love |
T3:14.2 | You would merely look back after the interlude had passed and | see the truth, realizing that a lesson had been learned and becoming |
T3:14.4 | You are quite capable of seeing the truth and still acting as if you | see it not. This has been done for generation upon generation and may |
T3:14.5 | much of your life. As you begin to dwell in the House of Truth and | see with the eyes of love, you will see far less about the life you |
T3:14.5 | dwell in the House of Truth and see with the eyes of love, you will | see far less about the life you lead that you would change than you |
T3:14.6 | As you | see newly with the eyes of love, you will be much more likely to see |
T3:14.6 | you see newly with the eyes of love, you will be much more likely to | see love everywhere within the life you currently live than to see |
T3:14.6 | to see love everywhere within the life you currently live than to | see the need to change your life completely in order to find love. |
T3:14.9 | You will clearly | see all of the choices that throughout your life have been made in |
T3:14.9 | of you a person you would not be other than. You will also clearly | see all of the choices that throughout your life were caused by fear |
T3:14.13 | Resurrection or rebirth must be total to be at all. Can you | see why you cannot hang onto the past? The new cannot have historical |
T3:15.6 | and their own timing for the accomplishment of the same. Some would | see six months of change as the basis for trust in the new. For |
T3:16.15 | As you live with awareness of the love of God within you, you will | see that you have no need for special love relationships. You will |
T3:16.15 | that no others have a need for you to make them special for you will | see the truth of who they are rather than the illusion of who you |
T3:16.17 | Accept one “part” or tenet of the truth and | see the reverse take place. See how quickly the thought system of the |
T3:16.17 | one “part” or tenet of the truth and see the reverse take place. | See how quickly the thought system of the truth builds upon itself |
T3:18.3 | miracle that will allow you to exist as who you are in human form. | See what perfect sense this makes as your human form is an observable |
T3:18.8 | It will seem at first as if you are asked to deny the facts that you | see before you in order to observe something other than what is |
T3:19.8 | of maximal benefit to everyone. While you may, for a while yet, not | see that all that are not expressions of love are expressions of |
T3:19.10 | Leave all blaming of the body behind and | see it not as the source of temptations of the human experience. The |
T3:19.11 | represent who you are in physical form in a new way, you can still | see that your actions of the past represented who you believed |
T3:19.12 | 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 that new |
T3:19.14 | new from the house of illusion will still be able to deny what they | see. Just think of how many saints and miracles you have heard of in |
T3:20.8 | You will | see it as quite difficult at first to respond to such situations in a |
T3:20.8 | think you it is loving to believe in suffering? Do you not begin to | see that in so doing you but reinforce it? What you might even call |
T3:20.10 | I am calling you to live by the truth and to never deny it. To | see no circumstance as cause to abandon it. Yes, I am providing you |
T3:20.13 | Many may. But not with your help. Will many more, with your help, | see an end to suffering? Many will. Will an end to suffering be what |
T3:20.17 | And thus we return to observance, the observance of love by love. | See not what love would not have you see. Turn from the dark ways of |
T3:20.17 | the observance of love by love. See not what love would not have you | see. Turn from the dark ways of illusion and shine the light of truth |
T3:20.17 | the dark ways of illusion and shine the light of truth for all to | see. Remain who you are and continue to live by the laws of love in |
T3:20.17 | Be neither dismayed nor discouraged by those who do not | see and have no willingness to offer. Just know these aren’t the ones |
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 live |
T3:21.17 | above will act to challenge these beliefs unless you are able to | see them in a new light. No matter what you believe, while you have a |
T3:21.22 | 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 will matter that |
T4:1.7 | school. If you can consider this example with no judgment, you can | see it simply as a choice. |
T4:1.23 | have thought it advantageous to have once been so clearly able to | see the contrast between good and evil and feel now as if these |
T4:2.8 | in terms of awareness. You must realize that if you were to | see into the eyes and hearts of any human from any time with true |
T4:2.8 | and hearts of any human from any time with true vision, you would | see the accomplished Self there. There can be no judgment carried |
T4:2.15 | the past, but you can truly now, with the devotion of the observant, | see that the Self you are now was indeed present, and the truth of |
T4:2.17 | you from them. There is no power without this unity. You cannot | see “others” as other than who they are and know your power. You must |
T4:2.17 | “others” as other than who they are and know your power. You must | see as I see and see that all are chosen. |
T4:2.17 | as other than who they are and know your power. You must see as I | see and see that all are chosen. |
T4:2.17 | than who they are and know your power. You must see as I see and | see that all are chosen. |
T4:2.28 | allowed me to exist in union and relationship with all, I could | see my brothers and sisters “in Christ” or in their true nature. I |
T4:2.28 | where they saw themselves in separation. This ability to | see in union and relationship is the shared vision to which you are |
T4:2.29 | feel that you will have to trick yourself into believing that you | see love where there is cause for fear. You must remember that you |
T4:2.29 | is cause for fear. You must remember that you are now called to | see without judgment. To see without judgment is to see truly. You |
T4:2.29 | must remember that you are now called to see without judgment. To | see without judgment is to see truly. You need not look for good or |
T4:2.29 | now called to see without judgment. To see without judgment is to | see truly. You need not look for good or bad, but only need be |
T4:2.29 | for good or bad, but only need be steadily aware that you can only | see in one of two ways—with love or fear. |
T4:2.30 | You expect yourself to still | see with the eyes of separation rather than with the shared vision of |
T4:2.30 | rather than with the shared vision of which I speak. You expect to | see bodies and events moving through your days as you have in the |
T4:2.30 | 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 whole. |
T4:2.30 | as separate, with no relation to the whole. You are beginning to | see the connections that exist and this is the beginning. |
T4:2.31 | would mean. Have you considered this question? Have you expected to | see in the same way but more lovingly? Have you thought you might |
T4:2.31 | with me in Christ-consciousness? Have you suspected that you might | see in ways literally different? That you might see auras or halos, |
T4:2.31 | that you might see in ways literally different? That you might | see auras or halos, signs and clues previously unseen? Have you |
T4:2.33 | what it means. This Treatise is here to help you do so. Learning to | see anew is the precursor of learning to create anew. Creating anew |
T4:3.10 | Vision will allow you to | see the nature of the world and all that exists within it truly. |
T4:4.1 | Everywhere within your world you | see the pattern of life-everlasting. Where there is a pattern of |
T4:4.11 | What is it then, of which I speak? If you still must look ahead and | see death looming on the horizon, how can it be that I speak of |
T4:4.17 | Can you not | see the necessity of removing the idea that your true Self will be |
T4:4.18 | when your true Self has joined with your physical form? You will | see it simply as the transformation it has always been, the |
T4:5.11 | you are. You are shown in ways that the body’s eyes were unable to | see, the glory of your true nature. You are given the chance, just as |
T4:5.12 | chose direct revelation by God. Think about this now and you will | see that it is true. You hoped to live a good life and at the end of |
T4:8.7 | had been like unto the reality you experience in dreams, can you not | see that you would have to learn to breathe, to speak, to walk, much |
T4:8.11 | creation. Yet your rebellion was not with God, although you came to | see it as such. Your rebellion was not allowed, it was mutually |
T4:8.11 | allowed, it was mutually chosen. Just as, as a parent, you come to | see that you cannot fight a child’s nature, no matter how different |
T4:8.11 | different it might be from your own—just as in extreme cases you | see that you cannot stop your child from perilous behavior save by |
T4:8.16 | complete, is an error. If you rethink this definition you will | see that even in regards to the learning of one subject it is not the |
T4:9.5 | new learning is not lasting because it is not new. You have begun to | see that all messages of the truth say the same thing but in |
T4:10.2 | about experiencing, rather than studying, and yet you will quickly | see that you merely think of experience as learning through a |
T4:10.3 | advanced along your self-centered path of learning, you have come to | see everything in your life as exactly what it has been—a means of |
T4:10.13 | will change the world. They will make the world a better place and | see many of their students advance beyond what they can teach and to |
T4:12.3 | of pioneers of the new already in existence. They are beginning to | see that they learn as one. They are beginning to see that their |
T4:12.3 | are beginning to see that they learn as one. They are beginning to | see that their questions are the same. They are beginning to see that |

T4:12.13 | like unto a lasting peace, would somehow stunt your growth? Can you | see that your idea of growth was synonymous with your idea of |
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 |
D:1.3 | still “trying,” still “struggling,” still fumbling along. You do not | see the natural grace and order of the universe extending into the |
D:1.3 | 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 forefront rather |
D:1.24 | your body. What once you saw as yourself, you now must come to | see only as a representation of your Self. You are everything and |
D:1.24 | of your Self. You are everything and everyone. All that you | see is you. You stand not separate and apart from anything. |
D:1.26 | know not. This is not the case. When you fully accept this, you will | see that it is true. Like the acceptance of unity that could not be |
D:2.1 | Obviously, when you consider this definition of acceptance, you will | see that this is not the way of the old. Willingness to receive is |
D:2.13 | learned ideas such as “when all else fails, plain old hard work will | see you through,” or that “safety is the absence of risk taking,” or |
D:2.21 | a pattern of looking without and wondering what to do about what you | see rather than a pattern of changing what you see by looking within. |
D:2.21 | to do about what you see rather than a pattern of changing what you | see by looking within. |
D:2.23 | your palms upon the path of your brothers and sisters. Do you not | see that your acceptance of this promise is the acceptance of your |
D:2.23 | of this promise is the acceptance of your own promise? Do you not | see that acceptance of the new and denial of the old is the necessary |
D:4.2 | as if each being stood separate and alone, you are now called to | see no more. In unity you are whole and inseparable, one living |
D:4.4 | an inward state and shows you what becomes of all of those who | see not what it means to be neither different nor the same but to be |
D:4.7 | system merely mirrors this restriction on a grand scale for all to | see and look upon with dread. For most, the prison system is a very |
D:4.10 | Let’s look at each of these terms separately so that we | see the nature of existence in the same way and speak the same |
D:4.12 | not be beyond your belief. Despite the differences in what you | see, think, and feel, there is but one external divine pattern that |
D:4.21 | Instead | see the world anew and rejoice in it, just as you would have had you |
D:4.27 | Do you not | see that you must begin with yourself? That if you are unwilling to |
D:4.31 | become what they are—one reason, the same reason—and you will | see that what is one is neither the same nor different. You will see |
D:4.31 | see that what is one is neither the same nor different. You will | see that there is one answer, an answer different for everyone and |
D:5.3 | While the false representation of the ego self led to the world you | see, it did not change the truth but only created illusion. Thus the |
D:5.10 | from your seeing, this must be reemphasized now as you are called to | see what you might previously have thought of as inconsequential in |
D:5.12 | patterns given in the time of learning are all that exist in all you | see. But what now will become of these patterns that are no longer |
D:5.12 | your return to what is, will become what is once again. What you can | see with your body’s eyes will not be all that is but will represent |
D:5.20 | how can it exist in perfect harmony with the universe? As you can | see, you are now approaching another thought reversal. Fear not that |
D:5.22 | dialogue serve as a final call, a most emphatic call, to acceptance. | See the importance of this acceptance to everything that is still to |
D:6.6 | The body, as all else you | see among the living, is, in fact, living. It exists as living form. |
D:6.10 | into account are the laws of God. Although science is beginning to | see much as it truly is, scientists still look for natural laws that |
D:6.17 | as a world in which giving and receiving are one, you will begin to | see the enormity of the thought reversal that now awaits your |
D:6.19 | the unhealthy habits. You might look now at these two attitudes and | see that they are somewhat silly, but still you would cling to them |
D:6.19 | type of thinking, but the examples matter not except to make you | see that these attitudes are not ruled by certainty, but by a mere |
D:6.21 | When you remember that we have left blaming behind, you will | see that belief in fate is just as systematic and in need of being |
D:6.21 | be blamed on certain habits. This may not be the type of blaming you | see as easily as that of blaming a friend for your hurt feelings, or |
D:7.16 | than is observation because it is not about what your body’s eyes | see, and will increasingly join with what you observe until your |
D:7.24 | abrupt and painful end. Some even fear an evolutionary setback, and | see any threat against civilization as they know it as a return to |
D:7.26 | by time. What transformation outside of time asks you to do is to | see the body as but this one, small, aspect of what you are. In |
D:7.28 | home, then your neighborhood, community, city, state, country. You | see yourself as most your “self” in your home, your neighborhood, |
D:7.28 | a route to and from your work or other places that you go, where you | see familiar landmarks, structures, faces. You visit the homes of |
D:9.1 | means of imprisonment than bars and walls. They are why you do not | see what is and are the reason that you continue to desire to be |
D:9.3 | 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 thought |
D:9.13 | This is how you must now come to | see your form; it is that through which what already exists, what is |
D:9.14 | you in order to gain expression in form; then you are beginning to | see, on a small scale, the action that, on a large scale, will become |
D:11.2 | the written notes of my thoughts. In this one example can you not | see the fallacy inherent in all the others? To think of these |
D:11.2 | 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 a giver of |
D:11.8 | the way in which these words have been given and received, you will | see that you can fully accept the way of unity. |
D:11.16 | importance of Jesus on the man Jesus who existed in history. Some do | see Jesus only as an important man among many important men. Those |
D:12.10 | to you in a reflective moment at the end of the day. Again we will | see the idea of thoughts “coming to you” at such times. This is not |
D:12.12 | What I am striving to help you | see, once again, is that union isn’t achieved with a flash of light |
D:13.8 | the expanding awareness of the time of Christ, and you will begin to | see the evidence that things are different now. Join with others who |
D:14.14 | that is behind your striving to become. Now you are beginning to | see the vastness of what is meant by creation of the new. What is |
D:15.22 | to the thinner air, the view from above, to what you now can | see. You catch your breath and let the wind of spirit fill your lungs |
D:16.5 | each of us, bring light to each of us; they bring the ability to | see, the ability to know, the ability to be, the ability to create. |
D:16.18 | as if you have changed, while even within your new actions you | see archetypes of the previously known and previously experienced. |
D:Day1.11 | matter not, but only the power of the healer. Some of you may | see this example as an example of why you should not need to accept |
D:Day2.2 | the ego, re-viewed your life, unlearned previous patterns, and now | see the difference between the image you hold of yourself and your |
D:Day2.3 | your mistakes and poor choices have been reconciled. You can | see the pattern of your life as clearly now as if a masterful |
D:Day2.3 | seen more as a whole now. The parts are fitting together. You can | see how you have moved from seeming purposelessness to purpose. |
D:Day2.5 | who have so long striven to give meaning to the purposeless, here | see meaning revealed. |
D:Day2.10 | you not expressed your wish that you had acted differently? Can you | see a way to change the past or to “make up for” what occurred in the |
D:Day2.11 | a tornado or a flood rather than adultery and divorce, would you not | see the benefit of accepting what had occurred and moving on? You |
D:Day3.2 | for only through them did you learn. You are beginning to | see now that this learning was not a choice but only the way you knew |
D:Day3.9 | will cause you to think, “I doubt it.” Or, “I’ll believe it when I | see it.” You might think spirituality can assist you in living a more |
D:Day3.11 | the “givens” of fresh and inspired ideas. You do not, however, | see that these are in truth linked as givens, for you do not see that |
D:Day3.11 | see that these are in truth linked as givens, for you do not | see that all are gifted. |
D:Day3.14 | To think in such terms, and then to | see such thoughts as even capable of having spiritual value, is |
D:Day3.15 | inheritance with ideas such as these? How do you accept me when you | see me as symbolizing a life of “godly” poverty, and of calling my |
D:Day3.22 | time, more fulfilling work, simpler pleasures, and yet you still | see your new state as one that does not touch upon this aspect of |
D:Day3.30 | that may at any point take it from you, those of you who have money | see it in the same way. You may go along just fine for weeks or |
D:Day3.39 | with the pattern of learning through the mind, you can perhaps | see why these first revelations of union would come to you in a way |
D:Day3.40 | learning, or through the mind, other means will open to you. You may | see, audibly hear, and interact with what comes to you from union. |
D:Day3.43 | Do you not | see? You are the entry point, the only channel through which all that |
D:Day3.46 | or evidence you could cite as a response to your requests, | see not the truth of the situation. |
D:Day3.47 | and learning as the only source of knowledge. What you have begun to | see is that the mind is not the source of certainty, no matter how |
D:Day3.47 | matter how much knowledge it attains. What you have perhaps begun to | see in similar terms, is that money is also not the source of |
D:Day3.50 | all that you have learned into practice, you are sure to begin to | see the benefits that have been promised. But many of your ideas and |
D:Day3.57 | Do you | see the difference, even here, in belief and acceptance? Can you |
D:Day3.57 | difference, even here, in belief and acceptance? Can you begin to | see acceptance as an active function, much as learning was an active |
D:Day3.58 | word, another concept, another trick of the mind, you will not | see it as the replacement of learning, and as such as an active |
D:Day4.3 | been known to you? Thus you must be given the opportunity here to | see what other choices might be before you. |
D:Day4.20 | The teaching was externalized and institutionalized. People began to | see following me as belonging to an externalized institution, trying |
D:Day4.31 | time of Christ-consciousness upon this time. It is as if you ask to | see clearly and then hold your hands over your eyes. You “cover over” |
D:Day4.40 | to show you these two choices? From where else could you so clearly | see the choice between form and the formless? |
D:Day4.52 | linked fear and the time of learning before, but now you need to | see their connection, for if you do not, you will not realize that |
D:Day6.4 | unity as one of convergence, intersection, and pass-through. Can you | see the similarities between these actions despite the difference in |
D:Day6.7 | mind” or a particular turn of phrase that inspires the creator to | see these words as lyrics. At some point after this gestation within |
D:Day6.7 | instincts, to make changes, or to be more determined than ever to | see the piece through to the point where it will be appreciated. |
D:Day6.8 | is made between the artist and the piece of art. A commitment to | see it through. This commitment may come because the artist knows it |
D:Day6.8 | no certainty about the value of the piece, but determining to | see the project through, knowing that it will make the next piece or |
D:Day6.32 | are not the conditions of the time of learning, and so you will soon | see that the difficulty of the time of learning truly is behind you. |
D:Day7.1 | imply but the very denial of yourself that you have come to | see as your former state? |
D:Day7.13 | It is easy to | see from here how the dominoes fall and each condition of learning is |
D:Day8.7 | You cannot accept only an ideal self. This is nonsense. Can you not | see this? |
D:Day8.13 | the truth rather than attempting to combat illusion. Thus when you | see others gossiping, you are called to see only the truth of who |
D:Day8.13 | illusion. Thus when you see others gossiping, you are called to | see only the truth of who they are—to see beyond the illusion, what |
D:Day8.13 | gossiping, you are called to see only the truth of who they are—to | see beyond the illusion, what would seem to be the “fact” of their |
D:Day8.14 | your job, you predetermine a continuing dislike. Soon, you might | see a group of people who often gossip and assume that they are |
D:Day8.19 | Does this seem confusing? To be called to | see only the truth, to see beyond illusion, and then to be told to |
D:Day8.19 | Does this seem confusing? To be called to see only the truth, to | see beyond illusion, and then to be told to accept the feelings of |
D:Day8.20 | When you develop a false sense of certainty, you | see not the true Self and the holiness of the true Self being |
D:Day8.20 | being expressed in the feelings of a present moment situation, but | see a future where the true Self will be more evolved, evolved enough |
D:Day8.24 | you from them. There is no power without this unity. You cannot | see ‘others’ as other than who they are and know your power.” |
D:Day9.10 | from your reading, from descriptions of those the world has come to | see as enlightened ones. It may be linked to your ideas of being able |
D:Day9.28 | of false images of the way things—and you—should be! Can you not | see the extreme urgency of not perpetuating such a practice? |
D:Day9.29 | All you need do is look at a young child to | see the joy, beauty, and truth of expression. You, too, were once a |
D:Day9.31 | Thus you can | see that a key step in doing this is the debunking of the myth of an |
D:Day10.2 | See you now why the certainty of union must be combined with the | |
D:Day10.19 | and met challenges similar to your own. You have been unable to | see the two as the same for you have not realized this sameness in |
D:Day10.28 | you not occasionally think that this person would be happy or sad to | see you in the state you are in when you think of them? Do you not at |
D:Day10.28 | head and think that a dead loved one was lucky not to have lived to | see the current state of affairs of the world because you know they |
D:Day10.29 | And do you not, when thinking of idolized spiritual leaders, | see them as world leaders as well, leaders not only capable but bound |
D:Day10.31 | was a social statement for the times in which I lived? Or do you not | see that it is the same now as then? |
D:Day10.38 | As you can | see, it is difficult for me, even now, even in this final address to |
D:Day11.2 | truth. Sharing in unity and relationship is the way and the means to | see past the world of illusion to the truth of the union of form and |
D:Day14.10 | of your invisibility and spaciousness, do you look within and | see the stones that settled in your clear pools. They are as specks |
D:Day15.5 | Previously, what you did not observe, or | see, was not real to you. Through the practice of observance of the |
D:Day15.5 | observance of the physical and the obvious, you began to be able to | see beyond the physical and the obvious to what could not be observed |
D:Day15.13 | of sands within the ocean. Observe these stones with neutrality and | see if they do not wash away. Your willingness to have them gone is |
D:Day15.14 | preparations in mind. Bring your fears into the light of oneness and | see how the light dispels the darkness. This is what we are here for. |
D:Day15.20 | the current of other clear pools it is able to change directions, | see new sights, gain new insights. While this is only an initial, or |
D:Day15.21 | are not asked to disregard any other means of coming to know or to | see any others differently than you see those with whom you are |
D:Day15.21 | means of coming to know or to see any others differently than you | see those with whom you are engaged in this specific dialogue for |
D:Day15.26 | The distinctness of your own path will be made visible and you will | see that it may be quite different from the others with whom you are |
D:Day19.1 | important, but it does not have a form within your mind and so you | see not how it can become manifest in the world. In other words, you |
D:Day19.1 | in the world. In other words, you know not what to do. You perhaps | see no “specific” accomplishment in your future, but see instead a |
D:Day19.1 | do. You perhaps see no “specific” accomplishment in your future, but | see instead a way of living as the ultimate accomplishment. You see |
D:Day19.1 | but see instead a way of living as the ultimate accomplishment. You | see living as who you are in the world as the accomplishment that is |
D:Day19.3 | You can | see right away, however, that if the artist, musician, or healer were |
D:Day19.4 | —your wholeness. Those who use their gifts to create the truth they | see are those who in “doing” find their way to true contentment and |
D:Day19.4 | Those called to the way of Mary are called to be what they want to | see reflected in the world and to the realization that this |
D:Day19.16 | is always room for comparison and judgment. Thus it is realistic to | see the two ways as intertwined circles existing in support and |
D:Day27.9 | picturing the mountain-top. Looking in one direction, you might | see only darkness. Looking in another, you might see the dawning of |
D:Day27.9 | you might see only darkness. Looking in another, you might | see the dawning of light. Opposites exist only as different aspects |
D:Day27.11 | are each just opposite ends of the same continuum, you can now | see that they are only distinguished by degrees of separation. So too |
D:Day28.24 | your mind much as if you have been following a thread and now can | see the tapestry. This tapestry will bear the mark of your |
D:Day30.4 | separating into more than one in order to know Itself, you would | see that knower and known are one. You would see that two or more are |
D:Day30.4 | know Itself, you would see that knower and known are one. You would | see that two or more are needed in order for knowing to occur. To not |
D:Day31.3 | What the mountain top experience is helping you to | see is that you are the experience. The mountain top experience did |
D:Day32.19 | concerning God’s great power when compared to your own? Could you | see that God’s power stems from His relationship to everything rather |
D:Day33.12 | are powerful have realized their relationship to power. Those who | see themselves as powerless have not realized their relationship to |
D:Day34.5 | realize that your wholehearted desire has made it so and begin to | see and create this change in the world around you. |
D:Day36.3 | these experiences—all of them. You can look back on your life and | see its form. You could write an autobiography describing every |
D:Day36.8 | Can you not | see that if you can create your experience you can create a new |
D:Day36.8 | experience you can create a new reality—a new world? Can you not | see the difference between creating as a separate self in response to |
D:Day36.19 | You can | see, now, perhaps, why we have had to build your awareness slowly in |
D:Day37.2 | God as a supreme and separate being, why should it be difficult to | see that God is being? This is not much different than saying that |
D:Day37.3 | is all predicated, first and foremost, by the relationship that you | see yourself as having to the world around you. Since you see |
D:Day37.3 | that you see yourself as having to the world around you. Since you | see yourself as separate from it, all that you experience with your |
D:Day37.14 | may rely more on your thoughts, or more on your feelings. You may | see yourself as creative, or you may not. You may realize the extent |
D:Day37.16 | human being because this is what you believe yourself to be. You may | see yourself as a separate human being having a separate and distinct |
D:Day37.16 | with God, by which you mean a relationship like no other. And if you | see yourself in such a way, then you do have a relationship in |
D:Day38.10 | is simply to claim possession for your own Self. Now it is time to | see me as your own God as well as God of all. Now it is time to call |
D:Day39.44 | 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 you and |
D:Day40.16 | of you have gone on quests to find the “one, true, God.” Do you not | see that this would be like going on a quest to find the “one, true, |
E.6 | it is the only path in the world and you will wonder why you didn’t | see it all along. Expect this. And it will be. So be it. |
E.7 | world. There will be no projections at all and this is why you will | see so clearly. You will see what is. You will create what will be |
E.7 | projections at all and this is why you will see so clearly. You will | see what is. You will create what will be through the extension of |
E.22 | If you will but let it come, you will | see that you are being who you are being for a reason, for a purpose, |
E.27 | this quest for being? The quest for love’s expression—the quest to | see, experience, and share, as many of love’s expressions as the |
A.4 | put effort into learning what cannot be learned, as you continue to | see yourself as a student seeking to acquire what you do not yet |

T2:3.8 | In this same way, then, Christ can be seen as the | seed of your identity. Christ is the continuous and on-going |
T2:6.8 | needs adjustment now. As a tree exists fully accomplished within its | seed and yet grows and changes, you exist fully accomplished within |
T2:6.8 | and yet grows and changes, you exist fully accomplished within the | seed that is the Christ in you even while you continue to grow and |
T2:6.8 | of all kinds are but expressions of what already exist within the | seed of the already accomplished. |

T2:12.11 | that the Christ is also the relationship of all that would bring the | seed to fruition. The ego could be here compared to a gardener who |

T2:12.11 | without the relationship of earth and water, light and air, the | seed would but remain a source of struggle. The ego would hang on to |

T1:10.8 | has been meant by the many references that have been made to God not | seeing suffering. God exists with you in peace. When you feel peace, |
T2:7.13 | is not about doing good works. This is about being who you are and | seeing the truth rather than the illusion that surrounds you. You |

T3:14.4 | You are quite capable of | seeing the truth and still acting as if you see it not. This has been |

T4:2.32 | true vision is seeing relationship and union. It is the opposite of | seeing with the eyes and the attitude of separation. It is seeing |
T4:2.32 | of seeing with the eyes and the attitude of separation. It is | seeing with an expectation first and foremost of revelation. It is |
T4:2.33 | Seeing with the vision of Christ-consciousness is already upon you. | |
T4:3.2 | the unity that binds all living things. Observation is the means of | seeing this binding pattern in physical form. |
D:3.19 | even though my Self was eternal. One of the major things we will be | seeing as we proceed is the difference between form and content and |
D:4.14 | thought pattern, enhance it with the external pattern, and by | seeing the unity and cooperation of all, understand and live |
D:5.9 | the truth will be represented once again. As was said earlier, this | seeing of the truth is the first step as it is the step necessary for |
D:5.9 | it is the step necessary for the restoration of divine design. True | seeing facilitates the return to what is and we but proceed from this |
D:5.10 | While you have learned to take judgment from your | seeing, this must be reemphasized now as you are called to see what |
D:6.5 | for the time of learning, the body was the perfect learning device. | Seeing it as such assisted us in bringing about the end of the time |
D:7.8 | the body now as what it is in all its manifestations while not | seeing it as “bound” by the particularity of time and space. It may |
D:7.9 | The content of all living things is, in other words, whole. By | seeing only aspects of wholeness you have not seen content nor matter |
D:8.13 | aware of on the other side of that door will require a new way of | seeing, a new kind of awareness. |
D:11.12 | But for those willing to open their minds and hearts to a new way of | seeing, for those willing to suspend disbelief, the answer to the |
D:13.12 | the need for such intermediary functions. By being who you are, and | seeing others as who they truly are, you create the relationship in |
D:Day3.47 | have not within the confines of that form. This would be like still | seeing the mind as the only source of learning, and learning as the |
D:Day8.13 | only of illusion and that this intolerance will take the form of | seeing only the truth rather than attempting to combat illusion. Thus |
D:Day8.14 | Even this type of | seeing will have remnants of righteousness attached to it if you do |
D:Day22.1 | that all of life is a channel. There is a big difference between | seeing a teacher as a channel, all of life as a channel, and the Self |
D:Day27.7 | with yourself and with life. You quite literally have a new way of | seeing. You might think of this initially as having two perspectives, |
D:Day33.4 | being proposed, these words are at the heart of the new way of | seeing yourself—a way of seeing that will create a new world. |

D:Day37.14 | separate self, at times in relationship with loved ones, at times | seeing the connectedness of your life with that of others, but even |
D:Day40.8 | the “opposing” force of union in order to become separate. In | seeing the self as separate you have known fear and have been forced |

C:31.36 | As you interact with your brothers and sisters, you | seek to get to know them. You do this so that you find what you have |

T3:21.22 | will matter not that there will be no priest or guru for those who | seek the truth to turn to. It will matter not that a black man will |
T4:1.15 | This confusion is what this Treatise will | seek to dispel so that you are left with no confusion and only |
T4:2.19 | of study. This is just a course of study. Those whom you would | seek to evangelize or convince are as holy as your Self. This |
T4:4.15 | is to abide in an unnatural state from which you eventually will | seek release. |
T4:7.4 | will abide within it free of judgment. They will not | seek to create their version of a perfect world and to force it upon |
T4:11.5 | and relationship. This is the beginning of our co-creation. Do not | seek for me to impart knowledge to you in these concluding words. |
D:3.13 | learn. As was said before, you know what you need to know. What we | seek to achieve through this dialogue is acceptance and awareness of |
D:4.20 | new structure with barred windows and doors to keep you safe. Do not | seek someone to tell you anew what to do with who you are now that |
D:4.22 | want to do because you might fail, if you follow another’s path and | seek not your own, then you have imprisoned yourself for the “three |
D:4.23 | and because you have asked I am telling you, that the permission you | seek must come from your own heart and from your commitment to the |
D:11.10 | need never thirst again when you have accepted this. You need never | seek again for answers when this has been accepted. Because you will |
D:11.16 | lasting, are contributions that arise from the well of spirit. To | seek importance for the personal self would be akin to placing the |
D:11.16 | just as they miss the point of their own lives. Those who do so | seek to make individual contributions as important men and women and |
D:11.16 | make individual contributions as important men and women and do not | seek to give expression to what is in everyone’s hearts, to what is |
D:15.18 | this care, vigilance, and anticipation, the value of what you | seek to maintain will be lost. Thus we look at maintenance as the |

D:Day4.27 | learning was for. And learning is not the way to the access that you | seek. As all that exists in truth, the truth of who you are is means |
D:Day4.28 | Within you is the access that you | seek, just as within you is the Kingdom of Heaven. |
D:Day4.29 | The access that you | seek is not a tool that can be purchased through your right-actions |

D:Day9.21 | into images such as these only within the minds of those who would | seek to follow their teachings. This desire of “followers” to accept |
D:Day9.32 | realization that this is all these are—learning challenges. You | seek learning challenges now only because of the consistency with |
D:Day10.22 | since the beginning of A Course of Love that the answers that you | seek lie within, and that their source is your own true identity. You |
D:Day15.13 | you have been told it cannot be misused? Do you feel unworthy and | seek to keep your unworthiness hidden? Do you still fear being known? |
D:Day16.7 | in what you want to prove to yourself. All you may now continue to | seek proof of is that your feelings, rather than your thoughts about |
D:Day25.4 | You need not, in this time, | seek either questions or answers. You need rather, in this time, to |
E.19 | engage in the new dialogue, those who have chosen the new, those who | seek to share and exchange in harmony. Thus will you begin and your |
A.12 | Not to enter discussion? I am only telling you to receive before you | seek to perceive. I ask you not to receive as one who does not have |
A.18 | reality in which the mind has functioned. In turning to the heart we | seek to bypass this difficulty as much as possible, but each will |

C:P.31 | the same way in which you know another human being, and yet you keep | seeking this type of knowing. Even with another human being, knowing |
C:4.8 | Yearning, learning, | seeking, acquiring, the need to own, the need to keep, the grasping |
C:8.10 | a situation, problem, or relationship. Often this search is called | seeking for the truth. While the way in which you go about seeking |
C:8.10 | is called seeking for the truth. While the way in which you go about | seeking for the truth in places it is not causes it to remain hidden |
C:8.11 | into the hidden recesses of a heart or mind? Without union all your | seeking will not reveal the truth. And while there is a part of you |
C:9.39 | Seeking what you have lost in other people, places, and things is but | |
C:10.2 | I can merely tell you where to look, and save you countless years of | seeking where the truth is not, if you will but seek where I bid you |
C:14.2 | enemy. You seek to be different from all the rest, and in this | seeking proclaim that one part of creation is better than another |
C:26.7 | a life you feel is devoid of meaning and letting fear keep you from | seeking the meaning you would give it. You feel no inherent sense of |
C:31.30 | other than yourself. At certain times of your life you state this | seeking you are doing quite clearly, and it is always specific. You |
C:31.30 | are looking for a friend, a spouse, a mentor. You believe you are | seeking something other than you to complete yourself, because you |
C:31.30 | something other than you to complete yourself, because you are | seeking to complete yourself. You are seeking wholeness. And you are |
C:31.30 | yourself, because you are seeking to complete yourself. You are | seeking wholeness. And you are even correct in seeking it from your |
C:31.30 | yourself. You are seeking wholeness. And you are even correct in | seeking it from your brothers and sisters—just not in the way you |
C:31.33 | and receiving are both taking place, both at the same time, as are | seeking and finding, once you are aware of what it is you seek. |
T1:1.1 | Knowing not what this is, is the source of conflict and of all | seeking. No one seeks for what they already know how to find or for |
T1:5.6 | made of this in-between place an adventure, and are happy in your | seeking. You do not care to end this happy state and there is indeed |
T1:5.9 | real, but is actually present within the illusion. This is why all | seeking must turn within, toward the heart where the real Self |
T2:8.6 | unchangeable nature of this truth. This is akin to being done with | seeking. This is the final acceptance that you have “found” and that |
T2:8.6 | you have been found. You need no longer journey onto the paths of | seeking. The truth of yourself that you reveal now will not become a |
T2:8.7 | How much time will be saved by an end to empty | seeking? You have already arrived and need no time to journey any |
T2:9.14 | mean that you will never be at rest or that you will be constantly | seeking to arrive. As has already been said, you have arrived and |
T2:11.2 | those around you are still convinced of their separation and still | seeking to glorify it. You will still perceive of the world as |

T4:2.2 | and reemphasize my statements: where once you turned outward in your | seeking and saw within what you perceived without, now you turn |
D:3.10 | of oneness. Oneness replaces duality or contrast. You will be | seeking now for replacements for that which formerly ordered your |
D:3.17 | looking to something or someone “other” than your Self rather than | seeking the awareness that exists within. |
D:5.6 | desire for your true identity as a being joined in oneness. This | seeking of completion through oneness, this joining, is a true |

D:Day10.14 | before you act is wise. But to think that doubting your feelings or | seeking outside assurances of what you know will lead to either |

D:7.14 | was a particular relationship with the vessel that only | seemed to contain you. It was a relationship with the separated self. |
D:14.7 | but remember now that God is not “other than” and that the God who | seemed so distant from you when you abided in separation can now be |
D:17.15 | that you feel both fulfillment and desire. But my earlier questions | seemed to indicate that once fulfillment was reached, desire would no |
D:Day3.24 | so that it would reinforce wants until this attitude of wanting | seemed impossible to unlearn. It is a pattern of survival, but not of |

C:9.7 | glorify a separated self, and it was made to punish that separated | self for the separation. Its creator had in mind what is reflected in |
C:9.14 | you from a place that you know not. The difficulty is that the only | self that is listening to this call is your separated self. It is in |
C:9.14 | that the only self that is listening to this call is your separated | self. It is in the attempts of the separated self to interpret what |
C:9.14 | call is your separated self. It is in the attempts of the separated | self to interpret what feelings would say that they become as |
C:9.14 | that they become as distorted as all the rest. It is the separated | self that feels impelled to label feelings good and bad, some worthy |
C:9.15 | of a situation because it lies one step beneath the surface of your | self. Peel back the first level of what your eyes allow you to |
C:9.15 | purposes of our discussion, the body is the surface aspect of your | self, and if beneath that surface what is first encountered is fear, |
C:9.24 | the replacement of fear with love, the replacement of your separated | self with your real Self, the Self that rests in unity. It is your |
C:9.32 | you use the body that you call your home and identify as your own | self. How can the user and the object of use be one and the same? |
C:9.36 | gets in its way. While your heart seeks for union, your separated | self seeks for what it can use to fill the emptiness and ease the |
C:9.36 | What your heart seeks in love it attains, but your separated | self would keep this attainment from you by turning every situation |
C:9.45 | or use and abuse. You would use for the benefit of the separated | self. When magnified, the destructive force of such abuse is easily |
C:9.46 | evil, but guided by the guilt and false remembering of the separated | self. As much as you have desired anonymity and autonomy from God, |
C:9.50 | we must expand on the lessons you are learning by observing your own | self. Now we seek to uncover the illusion that you can be used by |

C:10.4 | illusion as of the truth. You see your body as your self, and your | self as “source” of all that you have done and felt in all your days |
C:10.5 | back pain, and other seeming maladies. This is the separated | self that you have made calling you back to the body to prove to you |
C:10.6 | lost something does not mean it no longer exists. Yet your separated | self would cite all evidence of its failure to be other than separate |
C:10.8 | this: your willingness is all that is needed. When your separated | self whispers to you, “Your body is but a fact,” all you need tell |
C:10.9 | God than your brother or sister, are all desires of your separated | self wanting something for itself and all its effort. This is but a |
C:10.11 | But this attempt to fool yourself is welcomed by your separated | self who knows pretending will not make it so. |
C:10.19 | is determined with your heart. The thoughts of your separated | self care little for such as this and would call such concerns |
C:10.19 | and shelter, but for survival of the thought system of the separated | self. Happiness is not a priority here, but being right is quite |
C:10.19 | gay. Being serious about life is a major strategy of the separated | self, which recognizes its own seriousness as necessary to maintain |
C:10.19 | its separation. Joy is truly the greatest threat to the separated | self, for it comes from union and reinforces union’s appeal at the |
C:10.20 | You do not realize how quickly the separated | self rushes in to sabotage all movement away from separation and |
C:10.20 | the choice for practicality needed to be made. Yet if the separated | self can look back and see that it chose being right over being |
C:10.21 | threshold wherein after experiencing the oblivion of the separated | self through drugs, alcohol, or even constant work or shopping, they |
C:10.22 | The separated | self is so ensconced in fear that the known fears of its existence |
C:10.26 | genuine and not conceived from meanness. There will be a happier | self who seems to think this game is rather fun, and who is not at |
C:10.30 | as you proceed is the feeling of the tunnel vision of the separated | self giving way to the expanded vision of the unified Self. As you |
C:11.6 | but one thought system. One is the thought system of the separated | self and is based on separation. The other is the thought system of |
C:11.9 | final vengeance is your own death. While you still think of your | self as a body, it is easier to accept that your banishment from |
C:11.10 | faith and cherish your free will, the true god of the separated | self. You think at times that this was God’s mistake, the one |
C:11.10 | to flaunt them before God, is all that makes your little separated | self feel powerful at all. |
C:12.8 | Uncertainty of any kind is doubt about your | self. This is why this Course aims to establish your identity, for |
C:12.14 | in all creation could be affected by your free will but your own | self? But one was needed to, of his own free will, join his will with |
C:13.8 | 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 its |
C:14.2 | You thus seek to fragment creation as you have fragmented your own | self. And from the vantage point you have established in which you |
C:14.28 | and of joy, threatens your specialness, your ego, your separated | self who quickly rushes in with love’s replacement. Nothing but fear |
C:15.3 | but never both. The desire for specialness is what calls your little | self into being. This is the self that is easily wounded, the self |
C:15.3 | specialness is what calls your little self into being. This is the | self that is easily wounded, the self that takes on grievances and |
C:15.3 | little self into being. This is the self that is easily wounded, the | self that takes on grievances and refuses to give them up, the self |
C:15.3 | the self that takes on grievances and refuses to give them up, the | self that is prone to pettiness and bitterness, resentment and |
C:16.6 | and your brothers and sisters. Your judgment began with your own | self, and from it was all conflict born. Without differences there is |
C:16.6 | about what you choose to see. Your choice lies with God or with the | self you believe you have succeeded in separating from Him, and based |
C:16.13 | is safety to be found. Each separated one is out for his or her own | self, and if you do not watch out for your own safety, surely you |
C:16.15 | these moments of joy and people you love as well as your own | self is to be asked to live a life of even greater risk than that |
C:17.11 | rely upon and in your treatment of criminals as well as of your own | self and those you love? You believe mistakes must be paid for, not |
C:17.11 | it to yourself—a constant companion and a judgment on your own | self. |
C:18.23 | of pleasure and pain is made with the judgment of the separated | self who not only believes it is the body, but that it is at the |
C:18.23 | the body’s mercy. Yet the body has no mercy to offer the separated | self. It is only a learning device. But you have not recognized this |
C:19.1 | them. You could not fully experience separation without a sense of | self as separate, and you could not fully experience anything without |
C:19.1 | not fully experience anything without your free will. A separate | self with a free will operating in an external world, as well as a |
C:19.1 | with a free will operating in an external world, as well as a spirit | self desiring the experience of separation, would naturally lead to a |
C:19.2 | provide the desired experience. Thus was fear born, for a separate | self is a fearful self by its nature. How could it not be? |
C:19.2 | experience. Thus was fear born, for a separate self is a fearful | self by its nature. How could it not be? |
C:19.4 | the world of illusion that you have made to glorify the separated | self lies the world that was created for your learning, and that so |
C:19.4 | wholehearted choice to abandon all ideas of glorifying the separated | self and to let the world be what it is will begin the |
C:19.6 | Your saving grace is that even a separated | self yearns for union and knowledge of its Creator. Thus along with |
C:19.10 | The separated | self cannot relearn unity except through union. Here, union is |
C:19.18 | problem. The problem is in who is doing the asking. The separated | self, while capable of asking, is hardly capable of believing in or |
C:19.18 | Now that you are beginning to shed the concept of the separate | self and to believe in the possibility of response, you will find |
C:19.22 | although if you were to think of this as a re-viewing of your | self, you would be quite accurate. It is like unto the final judgment |
C:19.24 | The guiltless part of you is always free to redeem the guilt-filled | self. This idea of self-redemption has long been a culprit that has |
C:20.19 | you, like the world you cry for, devoid of thingness and a personal | self? And when you have leapt for joy at the world’s beauty, has it |
C:20.24 | Forget yourself and memory will return to you. Beyond your personal | self and the identity you have given your personal self is your |
C:20.24 | your personal self and the identity you have given your personal | self is your being. This is the face of Christ where all being |
C:22.19 | “I felt.” “I thought.” “I did.” The individual, personal, separated | self is at the center of all such stories. One quite literally cannot |
C:22.20 | to imagine seeing the world without the emphasis on your personal | self. Begin to form sentences and eventually to tell stories without |
C:22.23 | your world rather than as the small and insignificant personal | self you generally accept as your “self.” By eliminating the |
C:22.23 | a grand design. You will not feel cheated by losing your separated | self. You will feel free. |
C:23.2 | that you believe will accompany the loss of your separated | self. For, as each of you has found as you have loved another, the |
C:23.11 | and cells into the form required by the belief in the separated | self. Belief of another kind can foster the creation of form of |
C:25.16 | joining is a choice made from love without regard for the personal | self. You begin to live from love when the personal self gets out of |
C:25.16 | for the personal self. You begin to live from love when the personal | self gets out of the way. And when the personal self gets out of the |
C:25.16 | when the personal self gets out of the way. And when the personal | self gets out of the way in any instance, it is the turning point. It |
C:25.20 | this desire will come from a feeling of needing to reassert the | self. This need will arise as you realize that you can take no credit |
C:25.20 | the desire to create may be linked with ego as well. Your personal | self will be looking for a place in which to reside. It will be |
C:25.20 | You will soon realize that creation is not of, or for, the personal | self. |
C:27.5 | You have been caught in a cycle of seeing the | self as important for a period of time and then seeing the self as |
C:27.5 | the self as important for a period of time and then seeing the | self as unimportant for a period of time. Seeing the self as |
C:27.5 | then seeing the self as unimportant for a period of time. Seeing the | self as important seems at one time like a function of the ego, and |
C:27.5 | a function of the divine. You become confused between the personal | self and a true Self only because you have not as yet identified your |
C:27.7 | is through relationship, your concerns about concentration on the | self will end. Life is not a matter of self versus other. Life is a |
C:27.7 | about concentration on the self will end. Life is not a matter of | self versus other. Life is a matter of relationship. Life is not a |
C:27.17 | uncertainty. All uncertainty is fear. All fear is doubt about one’s | self. How can you not know how to respond when doubt is gone and |
C:31.2 | order, or spiritual thought. Thoughts related to your personal | self and the “laws” of the body, such as those of survival, are not |
C:31.6 | microscope. Yet you call your body your own and identify it as your | self. Your body moves and breathes, your heart beats and your blood |
C:31.6 | heart beats and your blood pumps, quite unaided by your conscious | self. You know that if you had to consciously cause these functions |
T1:4.8 | This is quite a different you than the | self of the ego-mind. The ego-mind, in its imitation of creation, put |
T1:4.8 | position developed all of its ideas of glorifying the separated | self as well as of subjugating the separated self. This subjugation |
T1:4.8 | the separated self as well as of subjugating the separated | self. This subjugation to the ego-mind is what led to the ego-mind |
T1:4.26 | As was said within A Course of Love, all fear is doubt about your | self. Now we must expand upon this thought, for doubt about your Self |
T1:5.9 | this course of study and the reason, when you have freed your | self, that you will look back and see how easy this one choice really |
T1:6.5 | emanate from the state of fear that is the reality of the separated | self. |
T1:8.8 | and mind joined in union accomplished the reunion of the separated | self with God. The resurrection was evidence of this accomplishment. |
T1:8.9 | death you need but arise from. Arise and awaken to your resurrected | self! There is no longer a god-head to follow into paradise. Take not |
T1:8.10 | was made to serve what you would have come to be. The separated | self could not exist in separation and so created a way in which |
T1:8.17 | on how the art of thought brings all you have seen as parts of the | self, such as male and female, conception and action, inspiration and |
T1:9.1 | thought is not possible without a return to the virgin or unaltered | self. The practice of the art of thought is what will complete the |
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 |
T2:7.2 | to you. Dependency is not consistent with your notions of a healthy | self. What, then is the alternative? |
T2:10.2 | by the saying resign as your own teacher. This belief in the | self as teacher has now been replaced with the belief that you only |
T2:11.15 | exist. You will be prone to calling upon the Christ as your higher | self to defend you against the ego-self. This is highly akin to your |
T2:11.15 | the notion of Christ as savior arose. This is the belief in a good | self and a bad self with Christ acting as conscience and defender of |
T2:11.15 | Christ as savior arose. This is the belief in a good self and a bad | self with Christ acting as conscience and defender of good and the |
T2:13.2 | We have, within these lessons, taken you far from your personal | self, and I, as your teacher, have all but discounted the personal |
T2:13.2 | self, and I, as your teacher, have all but discounted the personal | self I experience in relationship with you. Now, in unity, we are |
T2:13.3 | While the personal | self is the subject of the next Treatise, this is my invitation to |
T2:13.6 | mantle of peace and joy. Let who you are shine through the personal | self who continues to walk this world a while longer. Listen for my |
T3:1.1 | The personal | self exists as the self you present to others. This is the only way |
T3:1.1 | The personal self exists as the | self you present to others. This is the only way in which the |
T3:1.1 | you present to others. This is the only way in which the personal | self will continue to exist following the completion and the |
T3:1.1 | and the integration of this Course. Previously, the personal | self that you presented to others represented an ego-self who you |
T3:1.1 | yourself to be. Now the ego has been separated from the personal | self so that you may claim your personal self again and present to |
T3:1.1 | separated from the personal self so that you may claim your personal | self again and present to others a true representation of who you are. |
T3:1.3 | The false representation of the ego as the | self is what has led to the world you see. A true representation of |
T3:1.4 | reveals only illusion and becomes illusion. Thus, as your personal | self becomes a representation of the truth it will become who you are |
T3:1.6 | that you have represented the ego, what I mean is that the personal | self, as represented by your body, while adhering to the ego’s |
T3:1.6 | to the ego’s thought system, became an ego-self or an unreal | self. An unreal self cannot help but exist in an unreal reality. It |
T3:1.6 | thought system, became an ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal | self cannot help but exist in an unreal reality. It is as if you have |
T3:1.8 | I began this Treatise by saying that the personal | self exists as the self you present to others and that this is the |
T3:1.8 | I began this Treatise by saying that the personal self exists as the | self you present to others and that this is the only way in which the |
T3:1.8 | to others and that this is the only way in which the personal | self will now continue to exist. This statement implies and |
T3:1.8 | implies and acknowledges your previous belief in a personal | self who existed as more than a representation. While when joined |
T3:1.9 | has to do with awareness. When you become aware of the personal | self as a representation, you become aware of the Self whom the |
T3:1.9 | as a representation, you become aware of the Self whom the personal | self is representing. To have believed that the personal self, as a |
T3:1.9 | personal self is representing. To have believed that the personal | self, as a representation of the ego, was who you were, was an |
T3:1.10 | To say that the personal | self will now exist only as the self you present to others is to say |
T3:1.10 | To say that the personal self will now exist only as the | self you present to others is to say that the personal self will now |
T3:1.10 | only as the self you present to others is to say that the personal | self will now cease to be seen as your reality. |
T3:1.11 | To say that the personal | self has only existed as the self you presented to others in the past |
T3:1.11 | To say that the personal self has only existed as the | self you presented to others in the past is quite a different |
T3:1.11 | statement and has a totally different meaning. The personal | self you once presented to others as “who you were” was a self who |
T3:1.11 | personal self you once presented to others as “who you were” was a | self who existed in time, a self who believed that the past made up |
T3:1.11 | to others as “who you were” was a self who existed in time, a | self who believed that the past made up the self of the present and |
T3:1.11 | who existed in time, a self who believed that the past made up the | self of the present and that the self of the present made up the self |
T3:1.11 | believed that the past made up the self of the present and that the | self of the present made up the self of the future. The personal self |
T3:1.11 | the self of the present and that the self of the present made up the | self of the future. The personal self you presented to others in the |
T3:1.11 | the self of the present made up the self of the future. The personal | self you presented to others in the past was a chosen self and never |
T3:1.11 | The personal self you presented to others in the past was a chosen | self and never a whole self as evidenced by the variety of selves you |
T3:1.11 | presented to others in the past was a chosen self and never a whole | self as evidenced by the variety of selves you saw yourself to be. |
T3:1.11 | by the variety of selves you saw yourself to be. The personal | self of the past was a self of roles, each one as learned as that |
T3:1.11 | selves you saw yourself to be. The personal self of the past was a | self of roles, each one as learned as that which an actor might |
T3:1.11 | might portray. You saw nothing more amiss in being a professional | self in one instance and a social self in another, a parent in one |
T3:1.11 | more amiss in being a professional self in one instance and a social | self in another, a parent in one role and a friend in another, than |
T3:1.11 | in one role and a friend in another, than you did in defining a past | self, a present self and a future self. The greatest distinction of |
T3:1.11 | a friend in another, than you did in defining a past self, a present | self and a future self. The greatest distinction of all was that |
T3:1.11 | than you did in defining a past self, a present self and a future | self. The greatest distinction of all was that between the private |
T3:1.11 | self. The greatest distinction of all was that between the private | self and the public self, as if who you were to yourself and who you |
T3:1.11 | distinction of all was that between the private self and the public | self, as if who you were to yourself and who you presented yourself |
T3:1.11 | selves. Even within the illusion in which you existed there was a | self kept hidden. |
T3:1.12 | the ego-self and allows us to begin the lessons of the personal | self. |
T3:1.13 | without the lessons of this Course, to distinguish the personal | self from the ego-self. There is a danger even now in focusing upon |
T3:1.13 | from the ego-self. There is a danger even now in focusing upon the | self of the body, as this self has been so long bound to the |
T3:1.13 | is a danger even 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 |
T3:2.1 | are or who you think yourself to be. They are not expressions of the | self alone. They are not expressions of the self alone in terms you |
T3:2.1 | not expressions of the self alone. They are not expressions of the | self alone in terms you might consider autobiographical, and they are |
T3:2.1 | might consider autobiographical, and they are not expressions of the | self alone that you would consider the self in separation. They are |
T3:2.1 | are not expressions of the self alone that you would consider the | self in separation. They are rather expressions of the Self in union |
T3:2.3 | in a form that would expand awareness, through relationship, of | self and others. You chose a means of creation—as God chose a means |
T3:2.5 | While you have believed you are the | self of the ego, you have believed in a need to both glorify the self |
T3:2.5 | the self of the ego, you have believed in a need to both glorify the | self and denigrate the self. These beliefs have shaped your dualistic |
T3:2.5 | have believed in a need to both glorify the self and denigrate the | self. These beliefs have shaped your dualistic view of the world and |
T3:2.5 | in essence, a cost that came at the expense or denigration of the | self. You believed that for every gain there was also a loss. For you |
T3:2.6 | It is from this blameless or unaltered state that your personal | self can begin to represent the truth for it leaves untruth, or the |
T3:2.8 | of illusion are sometimes called art, representations of the | self of illusion have been called the self without this being so. In |
T3:2.8 | art, representations of the self of illusion have been called the | self without this being so. In each, however, is the self you believe |
T3:2.8 | been called the self without this being so. In each, however, is the | self you believe is real revealed. Thus, not all that is called art |
T3:2.8 | Thus, not all that is called art is art, and not all that you call | self is Self, even while both may represent the truth as you perceive |
T3:2.9 | and there is no right or wrong, no good or bad in regards to the | self but only accurate or inaccurate representations of the truth. |
T3:2.10 | is an idea, a remembrance of the original idea about your personal | self. |
T3:2.11 | of a vengeful God. Now we work to change your idea of a vengeful | self. For what else would such a self be? |

T3:2.12 | the idea of a self as highly developed as an adolescent child, a | self who would willingly choose to explore independence, no matter |
T3:3.1 | Your personal | self is dear to you and dear to me as well. I have always loved you |
T3:3.1 | have always been. Here is where you need realize that the personal | self that is dear to you is not your ego-self and never has been. |
T3:3.5 | You thus created a society that reflected this hatred of the | self and that functioned on finding blame for every misfortune. Your |
T3:3.6 | This is the vengeful | self we eliminate now. You have, in truth, replaced judgment with |
T3:3.7 | in your heart. And how can they exist in the heart of an unlovable | self? |
T3:3.9 | Self has come a long way through your learning of this Course, your | self is still seen as a stumbling block. You might think that were |
T3:3.9 | of you that still believes you are not good enough to be the “good” | self you believe this Course calls you to be. Most of you have now |
T3:4.3 | Such ideas are not small matters. Ideas are the foundation of the | self. You cannot have an idea of goodness without having an idea of |
T3:5.3 | by the lessons of grief as the loss of love has led to a loss of | self. You have been emptied by a loss of self due to illness or |
T3:5.3 | love has led to a loss of self. You have been emptied by a loss of | self due to illness or addiction, depression, or even physical |
T3:5.7 | meant to empty the world of the ego-self and to allow the personal | self to live on as the one true Self, the one true son of God. The |
T3:5.8 | Since God is original purpose, original cause, the origin of | self and of relationship, original purpose cannot go unfulfilled. |
T3:6.2 | and has much to do with your former notions of God and your own | self. It is an idea that has been transferred to all of life, much as |
T3:6.2 | been transferred to all of life, much as the idea of an unlovable | self was transferred into all areas of life without your realization. |

T3:6.4 | 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 thought |
T3:6.4 | within the ego’s thought system to keep within you the idea of a | self the ego is not. Thus has the ego had a self to blame for |
T3:6.4 | within you the idea of a self the ego is not. Thus has the ego had a | self to blame for everything, including your very existence. This |
T3:6.6 | Bitterness, as the word implies, is something taken into the | self, much as the bitter herbs of scripture illustrated. Many rights |
T3:7.1 | truth. The ego’s existence derived from your idea of a separated | self, a thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego’s thought |

T3:8.4 | tied to the personal self and the experience of the personal | self. Whether you believe the personal self is comprised of the one |
T3:8.4 | experience of the personal self. Whether you believe the personal | self is comprised of the one identity you now hold or the identity of |
T3:8.5 | that has been made is that of attachment to the human form as the | self. The choice that hasn’t been made is the choice to leave this |

T3:11.1 | of illusion, the self that exists in illusion, is an illusionary | self. This could be further stated as those who exist in the house of |
T3:11.1 | those who exist in the house of illusion are aware of the personal | self alone and believe the personal self to be who they are. Further, |

T3:11.16 | the truth of who you are, you are called to forget the personal | self who would find this cause for righteousness. You are not right |
T3:12.1 | of the Self. The Self preceded the establishment of the personal | self. |
T3:12.2 | You exist within the time of consciousness of the personal | self. Thus we begin our work with the personal self while also |
T3:12.2 | of the personal self. Thus we begin our work with the personal | self while also realizing that the personal self is a step in the |
T3:12.2 | work with the personal self while also realizing that the personal | self is a step in the chain of consciousness. The steps that came |
T3:12.2 | of consciousness. The steps that came before that of the personal | self did not come within time. The creation of time was simultaneous |
T3:12.2 | creation of time was simultaneous with the creation of the personal | self. Because the steps that came before that of the personal self |

T3:12.4 | be bound by time and be a House of Truth. How then can the personal | self begin to realize the human experience outside of time? The |
T3:12.4 | The answer is thus: by changing the consciousness of the personal | self from a time-bound state of consciousness to an eternal state of |
T3:12.8 | terms was not a choice made of fear but made of love. A physical | self is not inconsistent with the laws of God or of creation. It is |
T3:12.9 | The life of the physical | self became a life of suffering and strife only because the physical |
T3:12.9 | a life of suffering and strife only because the physical or personal | self forgot that it exists in relationship and believed itself to be |
T3:12.10 | What would be a greater step in all of creation than a physical | self able to choose to express the Self within the laws of love? A |
T3:12.10 | to choose to express the Self within the laws of love? A physical | self, able to express itself from within the House of Truth in ways |
T3:13.2 | you are aware of who you are, and so cause you to be aware only of a | self of human experience, or a personal self. While you may still |
T3:13.2 | you to be aware only of a self of human experience, or a personal | self. While you may still feel a connection to God during such times, |
T3:13.2 | reality remains that of the physical experience and the personal | self. In such times you can conceive only of a God outside of |
T3:13.14 | between your physical form and your Self as your physical | self represents, in form, the thought or image produced within the |
T3:13.14 | originating from the Self and being represented by the personal | self. It is only in this way that the personal self will be able to |
T3:13.14 | by the personal self. It is only in this way that the personal | self will be able to represent the Self in truth. |
T3:14.2 | return to label what is happening as “bad.” A “god” outside of the | self would soon be called upon to intercede. Blame would be placed. A |
T3:14.11 | the only act you can choose worthy of being called selfishness. Be | self “less” rather than selfish now and allow the self that you would |
T3:14.11 | selfishness. Be self “less” rather than selfish now and allow the | self that you would blame to pass away into the illusion from which |
T3:15.16 | the help of the new thought system, change the very nature of the | self described by the words human being. This calls for still more |
T3:16.10 | this will be related to old patterns of dissatisfaction with the | self. It has to do with any ideas you may still hold concerning |
T3:17.2 | of this observation and the judgment that sprang from it. The | self “fell” from unity through this judgment of what it observed as |
T3:17.2 | itself, through this beginning of making distinctions between the | self and all other things in creation that existed with the self. |
T3:17.2 | the self and all other things in creation that existed with the | self. This is why the story of creation includes the naming of |
T3:17.3 | for a beginning and an ending to the chosen experience. Thus each | self of form is born into time and each self of form dies out of |
T3:17.3 | chosen experience. Thus each self of form is born into time and each | self of form dies out of time. Both birth and death have always |
T3:17.5 | That mistake was seeing God as “other than” and separate from the | self. While it was important to the desired experience to learn the |
T3:17.5 | form. Since your true Self could not learn the untrue, a new | self, which we have called the ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self |
T3:17.6 | the Holy Spirit is always called upon to return the true Self to the | self of illusion. A Holy Spirit is called to return to your mind and |
T3:18.3 | the very relationship that disallowed the making of a separate | self. Observance is linked to cause and effect being one. What is |
T3:21.6 | Your personal | self exists in illusion. It is called a personal self because it is |
T3:21.6 | Your personal self exists in illusion. It is called a personal | self because it is attached to a person. A person is a being born |
T3:21.7 | The only means for the personal | self and the true Self to exist together is for the truth to be lived |
T3:21.10 | Course has disproved. This identity has been seen as your personal | self. Thus your personal self is the only place in which you have |
T3:21.10 | identity has been seen as your personal self. Thus your personal | self is the only place in which you have experience that can now be |
T3:21.11 | which you draw to feel the certainty you feel about your personal | self. You identify yourself as male or female, married or single, |
T3:21.11 | or Lebanese or American, black or white or Indian. Your personal | self may be deeply affected by these things you call yourself or may |
T3:21.12 | been considered as part of what makes you certain of your personal | self, are the thoughts of your mind, thoughts that while certainly |
T3:21.13 | part of what make up the totality of who you are, of your personal | self. |
T3:21.14 | So it can be seen that there are several aspects to your personal | self: a historical aspect, an aspect we will call self-image, and an |
T3:21.15 | or not, they exist. Your world-view, and your view of your personal | self, are inextricably bound together. In other words, the world you |
T3:21.17 | your true identity even while you retain the form of your personal | self. As your true identity is that of a Self who exists in unity and |
T3:21.17 | that of a Self who exists in unity and the identity of your personal | self is that of a self who exists in separation, this would seem |
T3:21.17 | exists in unity and the identity of your personal self is that of a | self who exists in separation, this would seem impossible. Even while |
T3:21.18 | Thus, certain things about your personal | self must be accepted as aspects of your form and cease to be |
T3:21.18 | while you carry observance forward into observance of your personal | self. As was said at the beginning of this Treatise, by the time the |
T3:21.18 | by the time the learning of this Treatise is complete, the personal | self will continue to exist only as the self you present to others. |
T3:21.18 | is complete, the personal self will continue to exist only as the | self you present to others. It will be a representation only. It will |
T3:21.20 | One is that your certainty regarding the identity of your personal | self will be useful as that certainty is translated to the thought |
T3:21.22 | What I am saying is that you can remain confident in your personal | self, knowing that your personal self will serve those you are meant |
T3:21.22 | remain confident in your personal self, knowing that your personal | self will serve those you are meant to serve. What you have seen as |
T3:21.24 | and seen as it relates to the relationship between the personal | self and the Self; the truth and its representation and observance. |
T3:22.4 | Since your personal | self was always meant to represent the truth of who you are, the |
T3:22.4 | are, the seeds of who you are, are planted there, right within the | self you have always been. There has always been within you, however, |
T3:22.9 | you. You are ready to be done with the concerns of the personal | self, and your attention has begun to wander from this topic even as |
T3:22.10 | will come to you that you are ready to leave the personal | self and the concerns of the personal self behind. You have needed to |
T3:22.10 | ready to leave the personal self and the concerns of the personal | self behind. You have needed to become bored with what has been, |
T3:22.16 | the old and the observation, the final observation, of the personal | self. You have created your personal self, and only you can look upon |
T3:22.16 | observation, of the personal self. You have created your personal | self, and only you can look upon this personal self with the vision |
T3:22.16 | created your personal self, and only you can look upon this personal | self with the vision of creation, creating the personal self anew, |
T3:22.16 | personal self with the vision of creation, creating the personal | self anew, seeing within it all that will serve the new, and only |
T3:22.17 | Observe the personal | self with one last act of love and devotion, and in so doing |
T3:22.17 | act of love and devotion, and in so doing transform the personal | self into a representation of the truth. Realize that what we have |
T3:22.17 | observation is really the observation of a Self beyond the personal | self. To call forth observance is to call forth the sight of your |
T4:1.22 | new. It is what has caused your growing impatience with the personal | self, with acquiring all that your new learning in science and |
T4:2.4 | this is what was desired, a bridge between the human or forgotten | self and the divine or remembered Self. Jesus the man was the |
T4:2.4 | Spirit by calling the Holy Spirit to possess the human or forgotten | self with the spirit of the divine or remembered Self. Although God |
T4:2.4 | who seeded the Earth, the humans, in the state of the forgotten | self, could not know God because of their fear. I revealed a God of |
T4:2.15 | for this chosen experience. Observe now the expressions of the | self you are and have been. Although you are different now than you |
T4:2.29 | You have lived with the vision of the separated | self for so long that you cannot imagine what shared vision will |
T4:3.2 | the same. Observation has to do with the elevation of the personal | self. Vision has to do with what cannot be elevated. Vision has to do |
T4:3.3 | The personal | self is still in need of being elevated—elevated to its original |
T4:3.4 | This original intent or cause formed the true nature of the personal | self capable of being observed in relationship. The displacement of |
T4:3.4 | change the original cause, formed a false nature for the personal | self. This displacement of the original intent can be simply stated |
T4:3.9 | the vision of love. What is new is the elevation of the personal | self that will be caused by the return of your natural state of love. |
T4:3.10 | within it truly. Observation will allow you to elevate the personal | self to its rightful place within the nature of a world of love. |
T4:4.8 | the change I have spoken of as that of elevation of the personal | self, is a natural part of the pattern of life-everlasting. It is |
T4:4.16 | that you are mortal is to believe that you must die to the personal | self of form in order to be reborn as a true Self. This is an old way |
T4:4.16 | of heart and mind in relationship is the joining of the personal | self with the true Self in the reality in which you exist now. |
T4:5.13 | and direct revelation. The elevation of the personal | self in this time of Christ can be the new choice. |
T4:9.7 | been made ready finally to be loosed of the bounds of the personal | self. This time of concentration on the self is unheralded in |
T4:9.7 | the bounds of the personal self. This time of concentration on the | self is unheralded in history. It is what has been needed. Be |
T4:12.10 | idea of sharing in unity. Learning is a condition of the separated | self, which is why it is no longer needed. You will not fully realize |
T4:12.23 | because Christ-consciousness is not available to the separated | self. Christ-consciousness is the consciousness of unity for unity is |
T4:12.25 | unity! Pause a moment here, and celebrate this feat of the personal | self! The personal self, through the self-centeredness of the final |
T4:12.25 | here, and celebrate this feat of the personal self! The personal | self, through the self-centeredness of the final stages of learning, |
T4:12.27 | the ego could have succeeded in becoming the ruler of the personal | self. Part of this design and pattern was the freedom of free will. |
T4:12.32 | and you a student. The answers to the elevation of the personal | self and the living of Christ-consciousness in form are yet to be |
D:1.2 | with your physical form. I come to you today not as a personal | self who is “other” than you, but as a divine Self who is the same as |
D:1.3 | What this means in practical terms is that you let the personal | self step back and the true Self step forward. Realize that all of |
D:1.3 | Realize that all of your “concerns” are still for the personal | self, a self whom you continue to believe can fail to fulfill or live |
D:1.3 | that all of your “concerns” are still for the personal self, a | self whom you continue to believe can fail to fulfill or live your |
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 |
D:1.3 | as you “see” such visions, you “see” the pattern of the personal | self going forth much as it did before. You do not “see” the new, the |
D:1.3 | form or the true Self of divine union. You “see” the separated | self still “trying,” still “struggling,” still fumbling along. You do |
D:1.3 | elevated Self. As long as you see in this way, you keep the personal | self in the forefront rather than allowing and aiding the personal |
D:1.3 | self in the forefront rather than allowing and aiding the personal | self in the stepping back that is required in order for the true Self |
D:1.7 | This acceptance is crucial to the elevation of the personal | self. Without this acceptance the personal self must still struggle |

D:1.8 | control of the personal self. Even with the ego gone, the personal | self can continue to move about within the world, a faceless and |

D:1.10 | is required any longer as we work instead to elevate the personal | self. This elevation occurs through the acceptance of your true |
D:1.11 | occurring with every fiber of your being. Imagine the separate | self being enfolded, embraced, and finally consumed—taken into the |
D:1.14 | I am no longer the personal | self who was separate and alone. I am my Christ Self. I dwell in |
D:1.17 | is not what will complete the transformation of the personal | self to the elevated Self. Learning will not sustain |
D:1.21 | from all learning you but thought you accomplished as a separated | self. You have achieved an incredible feat by allowing and accepting |
D:2.2 | ways of life that allowed you to live within the world as a false | self. |
D:2.8 | need to learn, you will retain the consciousness of the separated | self rather than sustaining Christ-consciousness. |
D:2.15 | have had to do with learning because you were, as a separated | self, a being whose only function was learning. The function of all |

D:2.22 | to find the answers of the personal self of old, the separated | self who depended on learned wisdom for answers. Looking within is |
D:3.5 | a state that was necessary for the learning of the separated | self but that is no longer necessary. The mending of the rift between |
D:3.8 | however, but rather ideas of who you truly are birthed within the | self of form so that the Self and the elevated Self of form are able |
D:3.9 | Ideas of who you truly are, birthed by the wholehearted | self in union with all, are the ideas that will allow new patterns to |

D:3.16 | you now know, and remain aware only of the reality of the separated | self, would not sustain Christ-consciousness in form. |
D:3.21 | to learn. What you need remember now is that your separated | self already learned this concept of giving and receiving, and that |
D:4.5 | are incarcerated there. Each of you has had an imprisoned personal | self. Each of you who have entered Christ-consciousness has had the |
D:4.14 | of thought are both divinely inspired and products of the separated | self. The idea of giving and receiving as one might be thought of as |
D:4.15 | Systems of thought that arose from the separated | self are those you have accepted as the truth. Some of these systems |
D:4.16 | provide. In addition, believing the ego had become an externalized | self took you, the true Self and the true learner, out of the |
D:5.3 | a 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:5.8 | —as you have been told that the ego has represented a false | self—it is possible to misrepresent. But the new world you have |
D:5.15 | recognizes that while the Self that God created is eternal and the | self of form as ancient as the sea and stars, the elevated Self of |
D:6.4 | While the false representation of the body as the | self was almost as detrimental to your learning as the false |
D:6.4 | to your learning as the false representation of the ego as the | self, the body, given your choice to return to who you truly are |
D:6.4 | As you identify more intimately with the Self you truly are, the | self of form is likely to grow more and more foreign to you and less |
D:6.24 | to accept the indwelling of Christ. You have replaced the personal | self, the self of learning, with the true Self. You have accepted |
D:6.24 | the indwelling of Christ. You have replaced the personal self, the | self of learning, with the true Self. You have accepted your true |
D:6.27 | The | self of form, as form, could never truly experience the All of |
D:6.28 | time needed? Time is needed now only for the transformation of the | self from a learning being to a being that can accept the shared |
D:7.1 | that you have language to represent, because you are aware of the | self of form. To “enter” into the experience of unity is something |
D:7.6 | form and the formless because action is the expression of the | self in form. “Right” action comes from the unity in which doing and |
D:7.7 | You have been told that you are time-bound only as a particular | self, existing as man or woman in a particular time in history. Now |
D:7.14 | only seemed to contain you. It was a relationship with the separated | self. Now, because your relationship is with wholeness, you can |
D:7.17 | Yet desire, like observation and vision, is still related to the | self of form. It is a step toward full acceptance and awareness of |
D:7.18 | desire are steps leading you beyond what the individual, separated | self sees, to the revelation of what is. These steps that lead to |
D:7.18 | aspect of eternity or of unity. Time is thus what has separated the | self that exists in form from the Self that exists in union or the |
D:8.4 | conversely, as the body having taken a step outside of the dot of | self to infiltrate the wider circle of the Self. When you have |
D:8.10 | The | self and the expression of self that comes from any place other than |
D:8.10 | The self and the expression of | self that comes from any place other than wholeheartedness is not the |
D:8.10 | which was given and available just a step beyond where the separated | self could reach. |
D:8.11 | Expand your reach! Step outside of the dot of the separated | self and into the circle of unity where all you desire is already |
D:8.12 | The divided | self is the small self of separation that is constantly yearning for |
D:8.12 | The divided self is the small | self of separation that is constantly yearning for union with that |
D:9.5 | is a practice and a pattern of the separated and thus learning | self. When it was said within this Course that you are an idea of |
D:9.10 | “A Treatise on the Personal Self” meant to lead beyond the personal | self. Thus the Treatises were not inconsistent with our aims here. |
D:10.1 | What is found outside of the boundary of the personal | self in the wider circle of unity is timeless. What comes to you in |
D:10.3 | joyous expression expresses the Self of unity rather than the | self of separation, the Self of elevated form rather than the |
D:10.3 | of separation, the Self of elevated form rather than the personal | self. |
D:10.4 | your form’s separate reality, is not of union but of the individual | self. You may feel that to think of this in any other way will leave |
D:11.4 | separated thought of the separated thought system of the separated | self. Your acceptance of the concepts in “A Treatise on the Art of |
D:11.5 | Your thoughts are the last bastion of your separated | self, the fertile ground, still, of your individuality, your |
D:11.9 | we have been having about the body and the elevation of the | self of form? How might this relate to your desire to make a |
D:11.15 | the contributions that are possible for the individual, separated | self to make? Is not the history of your world filled with individual |
D:11.16 | arise from the well of spirit. To seek importance for the personal | self would be akin to placing the importance of Jesus on the man |
D:11.17 | There is no truth inherent in the individual, separated | self, but only illusion. Illusion can be described in many different |
D:12.9 | as the thoughts that arise from the thought system of the separated | self. We might make this a simpler subject to discuss by making a |
D:12.11 | thinking, with or without the ego, is a pattern of the separated | self and does not serve you. The way in which you think may seem |
D:12.12 | of light from above, but that it quietly infiltrates the dot of the | self in its unguarded moments. I am attempting to help you to become |
D:12.12 | and comfortable with the idea that, released of old patterns, the | self will join with unity more and more frequently, until finally you |
D:12.18 | Some of you will have credited your personal or individual | self with the “figuring out” of this truth. Others of you will have |
D:12.18 | than your usual “self.” Either way, however, you know that your | self was involved, somehow, in this coming to know of the truth, even |
D:12.18 | to know of the truth wasn’t quite “of” the “you” of the personal | self. |
D:13.5 | of separation, to translate it into the language of the separated | self. |
D:13.7 | become an intermediary trying to bridge the knowing of the separated | self and the Self of union. What you are called to do is to share in |
D:13.8 | you have known. This perceived state is synonymous with the personal | self, with the idea of individuality, with separate thoughts, and |
D:13.12 | or attempt to convince. These are actions of the separated | self attempting to fulfill intermediary functions. Relationship, or |
D:13.12 | and no union. Without relationship, you behave as a separated | self attempting to communicate union from the state of separation. |
D:14.12 | to maturity, as well as many days of birthing new aspects of the | self, all without becoming more fully who you are. |
D:14.13 | extends and expresses itself through your form, thus elevating the | self of form. It is awareness, acceptance, and discovery of what is |
D:16.16 | in union, and in which you recognize still the image of your former | self. |
D:16.17 | This is only an image. This is not your personal | self, your ego self, or your separated self, come to reclaim you. |
D:16.17 | This is only an image. This is not your personal self, your ego | self, or your separated self, come to reclaim you. This is why we |
D:16.17 | This is not your personal self, your ego self, or your separated | self, come to reclaim you. This is why we have also described this as |
D:16.17 | a copy of what you once might have thought of as your “original” | self. It is but an impression, as in clay, or a reflection, as in a |
D:16.18 | in art of all kinds. This may be an idealized image of your former | self, the image of your best self, who you may imagine now, through |
D:16.18 | be an idealized image of your former self, the image of your best | self, who you may imagine now, through the grace of God, you finally |
D:Day1.6 | Now that you have moved beyond the thought system of the ego | self, you look back on it and realize why you could not know your |
D:Day2.1 | Now is the time to come into full acceptance of the human | self as well as the Self of unity. It is time for the final merging |
D:Day2.6 | that this stone of regret will always keep you anchored to the | self you once were, that no matter how high you ascend, it will |
D:Day3.44 | natural state. What you are being asked to do here, is to open the | self of form to the place of unity, thus allowing this divine flow of |
D:Day3.60 | life-giving resurrection you await. You prevent the elevation of the | self of form. |
D:Day4.25 | the dismantling of the ego-self, without the dismantling of the | self as separate and alone, you could not learn the truth no matter |
D:Day4.38 | needs to be greater than your fear. Love needs to reign. Love of | self and love of your brothers and sisters, love of the natural |
D:Day4.42 | as you think of yourself in this elevated place. You are still the | self of form despite the truth that you are literally with me in a |
D:Day4.42 | in a place of high elevation. Is this what you choose to remain? A | self of form elevated by circumstance? A self of form on a high |
D:Day4.42 | you choose to remain? A self of form elevated by circumstance? A | self of form on a high mountain? Or do you wish to carry this |
D:Day4.42 | elevation back with you when you return? Do you wish to return the | self of form who once visited an altered state, this state of high |
D:Day4.46 | mean no specialness. It will mean the individual is gone, and the | self of union all that continues to exist. It will mean peace, |
D:Day6.16 | as you know it. We are, after all, speaking of the elevation of the | self of form. This elevation must occur in life, in your life as it |
D:Day7.5 | in your progress toward full awareness and the elevation of the | self of form, but as in the discussion of abundance, you may still |
D:Day7.10 | of the time of acceptance is that of expansion. The singular | self you once believed yourself to be was not capable of true |
D:Day7.10 | be was not capable of true expansion and true sharing. The singular | self withdrew into its own little world and created its own universe. |
D:Day8.7 | to accept what you do not like in order to be more true to an ideal | self. Yet this ideal self is not the self you are right now. You |
D:Day8.7 | not like in order to be more true to an ideal self. Yet this ideal | self is not the self you are right now. You cannot accept only an |
D:Day8.7 | to be more true to an ideal self. Yet this ideal self is not the | self you are right now. You cannot accept only an ideal self. This is |
D:Day8.7 | is not the self you are right now. You cannot accept only an ideal | self. This is nonsense. Can you not see this? |
D:Day8.12 | of the Self begins to be practiced, you will realize that the | self of intolerance was the self of fear. Acceptance of yourself, in |
D:Day8.12 | be practiced, you will realize that the self of intolerance was the | self of fear. Acceptance of yourself, in love, leads to acceptance of |
D:Day8.14 | make of it a mental construct, a rule you have set up for your new | self to follow. If this becomes the case, you will find yourself |
D:Day8.17 | coming so late in our time together. To accept the feelings of the | self of illusion would have been to accept the feelings generated by |
D:Day8.17 | your heart. It would have been to accept the feelings of a personal | self who had not yet unlearned the lessons of the past or taken these |
D:Day8.17 | who you are and be able to allow the Self of unity to merge with the | self of form, thus elevating the self of form. You will also, only in |
D:Day8.17 | the Self of unity to merge with the self of form, thus elevating the | self of form. You will also, only in this way, come to true |
D:Day8.23 | Remember always that we work now to unite the Self of union with the | self of form. The self of form cannot be denied now. This is a |
D:Day8.23 | we work now to unite the Self of union with the self of form. The | self of form cannot be denied now. This is a continuation of the |
D:Day8.26 | that would keep your true Self hidden. You are used to hiding the | self of the past about whom you are not well pleased, and you are |
D:Day8.26 | about whom you are not well pleased, and you are used to hiding the | self of potential, the future self you think you can only dream of |
D:Day8.26 | and you are used to hiding the self of potential, the future | self you think you can only dream of being. The ego-self was the self |
D:Day8.26 | self you think you can only dream of being. The ego-self was the | self you felt safe presenting to the world, the self you believed the |
D:Day8.26 | The ego-self was the self you felt safe presenting to the world, the | self you believed the world would find acceptable. If you are still |
D:Day8.26 | the world would find acceptable. If you are still presenting this | self, you are still in a state of non-acceptance and whatever peace |
D:Day9.5 | is what must precede true certainty in this time of elevation of the | self of form. The certainty that arises from unity is different from |
D:Day9.5 | that arises from unity is different from this confidence in the | self of form and they must be realized together for the elevation of |
D:Day9.5 | of form and they must be realized together for the elevation of the | self of form to take place. What good will be the certainty of unity |
D:Day9.5 | form to take place. What good will be the certainty of unity if the | self of form has no confidence in its ability to express it? |
D:Day9.9 | of the idea that you may have an inaccurate idea of an ideal | self. |
D:Day9.10 | Where might your notion of what an ideal | self is have come from? It may have come from your ideas of right and |
D:Day9.10 | the spiritual titan you still but hope to be. Your image of an ideal | self may have sprung from your reading, from descriptions of those |
D:Day9.10 | being able to express wisdom or compassion. The image of the ideal | self you hold in your mind, no matter what form it takes, is still an |
D:Day9.11 | it possible that none are more false than this image of an ideal | self? Not having false idols is an ancient commandment. An ideal |
D:Day9.24 | to give up your images, particularly the image you hold of an ideal | self. It is contingent upon your ability to accept that you are your |
D:Day9.24 | It is contingent upon your ability to accept that you are your ideal | self. Yes, even right now, with all your seeming imperfections. |
D:Day9.25 | who another is. You cannot express the beauty and truth of a future | self. You can only express the beauty and truth of who you are now, |
D:Day9.29 | You, too, were once a young child. You are still the same | self you were then. You are, however, a self in whom the freedom of |
D:Day9.29 | You are still the same self you were then. You are, however, a | self in whom the freedom of expression has been diminished. |
D:Day9.31 | a key step in doing this is the debunking of the myth of an ideal | self. An ideal self, like a god seen as “other than” puts all that |
D:Day9.31 | doing this is the debunking of the myth of an ideal self. An ideal | self, like a god seen as “other than” puts all that you would long |
D:Day9.31 | all that you would long for in a place outside of, or beyond, the | self you are now. |
D:Day9.33 | your certainty. Trust in your own abilities—the abilities of the | self of form joined with the Self of union—will be your confidence. |
D:Day10.2 | the certainty of union must be combined with the confidence of the | self of form? Certainty is knowing that this power exists. Confidence |
D:Day10.2 | your own power is to rely on the connection that exists between the | self of form and the Self of union and to, through this reliance, tie |
D:Day10.6 | will seem to come, at least initially, from a place other than the | self. Because certainty seems to come from a place “other than” or |
D:Day10.6 | certainty seems to come from a place “other than” or beyond the | self of form, you will instinctively have greater trust in it. You |
D:Day10.6 | You will believe it comes from a place “other than” or beyond the | self of form because it comes in the form of certainty. |
D:Day10.12 | Feelings come from the innate knowing of the | self of form—in short, from the body. The body is the “given” form |
D:Day10.12 | for you to become aware of and accept than the confidence in the | self of form that must accompany it. In developing the confidence of |
D:Day10.12 | of form that must accompany it. In developing the confidence of the | self of form, we work with what has been in a new way, and as you all |
D:Day10.13 | of image versus presence and to the image of your personal | self that was discussed at the beginning of our dialogue. While you |
D:Day10.13 | of our dialogue. While you still hold an image of your personal | self, you still hold inaccurate ideas about the feelings of the |
D:Day10.13 | you still hold inaccurate ideas about the feelings of the personal | self. This is because your image of the personal self is based on the |
D:Day10.13 | of the personal self. This is because your image of the personal | self is based on the past and the feelings of the past. This is also |
D:Day10.13 | of the past. This is also because your image of the personal | self is a mental construct, and not a simple mental construct but a |
D:Day10.15 | you feel from unity and the confidence you need to feel in the | self of form. Reflect further on your idea of certainty coming from a |
D:Day10.15 | on your idea of certainty coming from a place “other than” the | self. Realize in these reflections that you are still reliant on |
D:Day10.15 | reflections that you are still reliant on means “other than” the | self, including your image of the state of unity and including your |
D:Day10.17 | Course. As you “learned” to remove the ego and deny the personal | self, you transferred your reliance to me and to the state of unity. |
D:Day10.26 | It is highly unlikely that in your image of an ideal | self you left much room for feelings of the type you currently |
D:Day10.26 | of the feelings you would think would have no place within the ideal | self or the elevated Self of form. |
D:Day11.3 | The elevation of the | self of form is nothing but the recognition of the One Self within |
D:Day11.5 | and relationship. It is only in relationship that the oneness of the | self separates from oneness and so knows oneness. It is only through |
D:Day11.5 | the observer or the observed. This is as true of God as it is of the | self of form. God is the oneness and the separation. Life is the |
D:Day12.6 | do is remind yourself that space has replaced what was once your | self of form. Feel the love of the space that is you. All obstacles |
D:Day12.8 | is a boundary to a perceiver is met as an obstacle by the spacious | self. Obstacles need not be avoided for space encompasses all |
D:Day13.1 | Its Self, it knew separate thought. The separate thoughts of the one | self, rather than the form of the one self, allowed for the knowing |
D:Day13.1 | separate thoughts of the one self, rather than the form of the one | self, allowed for the knowing of the self that created the many |
D:Day13.1 | rather than the form of the one self, allowed for the knowing of the | self that created the many selves. The many selves who have come and |
D:Day13.2 | The “one” | self of form is the self you were born into. The one self of form |
D:Day13.2 | The “one” self of form is the | self you were born into. The one self of form comes to know the One |
D:Day13.2 | The “one” self of form is the self you were born into. The one | self of form comes to know the One Self through relationship with |
D:Day13.3 | You are thus not meant to lose the experience of the | self of form but to integrate it so that you are both the many and |
D:Day13.3 | you are both the many and the one. The oneness that your individual | self represents in this life is the oneness of the Holy One who is |
D:Day13.3 | who is both one—somewhat in the way you think of the individual | self—and All. |
D:Day13.6 | and everyone. Because it is everything and everyone it is also the | self of the void, the void of the loveless self. As long as the void |
D:Day13.6 | everyone it is also the self of the void, the void of the loveless | self. As long as the void of the loveless self exists within the |
D:Day13.6 | the void of the loveless self. As long as the void of the loveless | self exists within the spacious Self, they exist in harmony. It is |
D:Day13.6 | exist in harmony. It is only in attempting to eject the loveless | self from the Spacious self that disharmony occurs. Thus holding the |
D:Day13.6 | is only in attempting to eject the loveless self from the Spacious | self that disharmony occurs. Thus holding the loveless self within |
D:Day13.6 | the Spacious self that disharmony occurs. Thus holding the loveless | self within the spacious Self of love is the answer to the question |
D:Day13.7 | The same is true of all you would fear, such as the suffering | self. A suffering self, held within the spacious Self, exists in |
D:Day13.7 | true of all you would fear, such as the suffering self. A suffering | self, held within the spacious Self, exists in harmony with the |
D:Day13.7 | exists in harmony with the spacious Self. Attempts to eject the | self of suffering from the spacious Self create disharmony. It is |
D:Day13.7 | disharmony. It is only by this holding within that the loveless | self and the suffering self are rendered ineffective. It is only in |
D:Day13.7 | only by this holding within that the loveless self and the suffering | self are rendered ineffective. It is only in this way that you |
D:Day14.1 | resistance or any attempts at rejection of the sick or wounded | self. It is your acceptance that escape is not possible that will |
D:Day14.3 | What is ejected from the | self becomes separate and in the separation willfully forgotten. The |
D:Day14.3 | separate and in the separation willfully forgotten. The Spacious | self no longer ejects or forgets because all feelings are accepted as |
D:Day14.5 | in willful remembering that extension replaces rejection both in the | self and in “others.” Extension of health can, in this way, replace |
D:Day14.7 | that was brought to a stop within you must pass through for the | self to be the fully invisible or spacious Self described earlier. |
D:Day15.10 | Yet informing is a quality of oneness and thus the joining of the | self with the spacious Self in oneness and wholeness must precede |
D:Day15.10 | their oneness with the creative force. Thus while it is not the | self who informs and is informed by the creative force, it is the |
D:Day15.11 | their oneness with it. While there is division remaining between the | self and the spacious Self, the self and the creative force, you |
D:Day15.11 | is division remaining between the self and the spacious Self, the | self and the creative force, you remain in the state of maintenance |
D:Day15.16 | not replace the consciousness of the One Self with the “one group | self.” This is not a time of being judged or of adopting the beliefs |
D:Day15.17 | with their concept of inner knowing and mistaken this as knowing the | self. Movement is necessary to know the self. The on-going informing |
D:Day15.17 | mistaken this as knowing the self. Movement is necessary to know the | self. The on-going informing or animation of the physical with the |
D:Day15.28 | your myths about your true identity being an idealized form of the | self. Now are you ready, through your ability to view your own Self |
D:Day16.4 | rejected feelings that became physical were made separate from the | self and yet were maintained within the body, thus interrupting the |
D:Day16.6 | ejected. All that has been expelled is part of the wholeness of the | self. As what was ejected or rejected and became “real” is returned |
D:Day18.5 | reveal the unknown through the known. They accept the death of the | self and the resurrection of the One Self, the end of the individual |
D:Day18.10 | in form. It is the ascension of the body, or elevation of the | self of form. You are called to demonstrate this pattern. The choice |
D:Day18.11 | relationship in which the relationship, rather than the individuated | self, becomes the known. Both ways are ways of creation. When |
D:Day18.12 | Both the | self and the relationship of self to all must become known in order |
D:Day18.12 | Both the self and the relationship of | self to all must become known in order for the paradise that has been |
D:Day19.11 | will matter to those following these ways. Being true to the | self and the calling of the One Self is all that matters. Eventually |
D:Day19.12 | The fear of losing the | self is still the primary fear, even among those who have never found |
D:Day19.12 | is still the primary fear, even among those who have never found the | self. They fear losing the known to the unknown. The two ways of |
D:Day21.6 | meaning that there is something given from a source beyond the | self, but this is the “thought” that has to change. If giving and |
D:Day21.7 | than being one of taking something from an outside source into the | self where it is learned and then regurgitated or even applied, has |
D:Day22.5 | through which your awareness of unity passes through your | self of form. It is clear, when looked at in terms of process, that |
D:Day22.10 | made real here and now. There is no other time. There is no “higher” | self waiting to do what only you can do. There is no one else who |
D:Day24.5 | You might think of the caterpillar as the unaltered | self with which you began your journey. You might think of your body |
D:Day27.10 | form and the content, the human and the divine, is to elevate the | self of form, or, in other words, to be what you have always been: |
D:Day27.16 | as well as the variability of the experience of the separate | self, have always been variables that exist within the constant of |
D:Day27.16 | the variability of experience that has come through the separated | self of form. This is what you are beginning to do through your |
D:Day28.4 | away, move out, become more independent increases the awareness of | self as self. As the self matures beyond school age, the choices |

D:Day29.1 | us. Wholeness and separation, God and man, life and the individuated | self, what you do and who you are, the eternal and the temporal, joy |
D:Day29.2 | Your “self” will no longer be divided into a spirit Self and a human | self, living under different conditions, at times complementing and |
D:Day29.2 | induced by their seeming separation, the spirit and the human | self must now do so also. |
D:Day29.6 | Your familiarity with your spacious | self has also been part of the process and part of the experience of |
D:Day30.1 | can yield to wholeness through the common denominator of the | self. A common denominator is simply that which yields to wholeness. |
D:Day30.3 | wholeness are the same. Thus your existence, the existence of the | self, is, or can be, a common denominator of wholeness. In our act of |
D:Day30.5 | joining is to not experience wholeness. Stated another way, the | self cannot know the Self without joining with the Self. The Self |
D:Day31.2 | interaction with circumstances or events that are separate from the | self. In saying this, you express your realization of relationship |
D:Day32.12 | because in your contemplation of this idea, you lose your sense of | self. There is a rebellion, a negation of either the self or God that |
D:Day32.12 | your sense of self. There is a rebellion, a negation of either the | self or God that occurs when these two concepts—concepts of the |
D:Day32.12 | self or God that occurs when these two concepts—concepts of the | self and of God—cannot be reconciled or joined in harmony. Either |
D:Day32.12 | and of God—cannot be reconciled or joined in harmony. Either the | self or God takes precedence in all lives. All lives. There is no |
D:Day32.12 | in all lives. All lives. There is no other choice as long as the | self and God are seen as separate. |
D:Day33.6 | You are being a who. Your who is your individuated | self. But your who is also your representation of being. The two |
D:Day33.6 | representation of being. The two becoming one—the individuated | self becoming one in being—is the aim toward which we have |
D:Day33.13 | power, which is the same as saying some means of individuating the | self. |
D:Day35.5 | of everything 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 |
D:Day35.11 | is why you return accepting of yourself rather than in a quest for | self or with a desire to know a higher self. You return knowing you |
D:Day35.11 | rather than in a quest for self or with a desire to know a higher | self. You return knowing you are one in being with your Creator and |
D:Day36.5 | you met. You started with what you believed you had been given, the | self that you saw yourself to be—the self you considered immutable |
D:Day36.5 | you had been given, the self that you saw yourself to be—the | self you considered immutable and unchangeable—and proceeded from |
D:Day36.8 | world? Can you not see the difference between creating as a separate | self in response to a “given” set of circumstances in a “given” world |
D:Day36.10 | being and God’s being without relationship. You could conceive of | self and God in different ways, but you could not truly create |
D:Day36.10 | being either created by a separate God or created by your separate | self. You experienced the power of being because you were a being who |
D:Day37.3 | that you represent with your being is a separate being or a separate | self. |
D:Day37.13 | however, has escaped you. So you have been being the particular | self you have “known” or perceived yourself to be—the self you were |
D:Day37.13 | particular self you have “known” or perceived yourself to be—the | self you were defined as at birth—a human being—something you |
D:Day37.14 | have exercised that power by making choices as and for your separate | self, at times in relationship with loved ones, at times seeing the |
D:Day37.16 | this is still a relationship in separation—between your separate | self and the separate and now dead self of the relative. This is not |
D:Day37.16 | —between your separate self and the separate and now dead | self of the relative. This is not only a relationship in separation |
D:Day37.17 | are of perceiving. In separation, however, the only known can be the | self. How could you possibly “know” anything from which you are |
D:Day37.31 | with yourself. When you cooperatively join, you move the particular | self aside and sometimes glimpse the divine being in relationship. |
D:Day37.32 | have been afforded by willingness. They come from observation of | self and they come from observation of others. They come from what |
D:Day39.19 | As have your ideas of the universe and your ideas of your own | self. |
D:Day40.8 | “opposing” force of union in order to become separate. In seeing the | self as separate you have known fear and have been forced to |
D:Day40.20 | you are. This paradox has kept you as intrigued with the idea of | self as with the idea of God. You have searched for a “one, true, |
D:Day40.20 | a “one, true, God.” This search only makes sense to the separated | self, who believes all things are separate and thus believes that its |
D:Day40.20 | who believes all things are separate and thus believes that its | self, as well as its God, must be separate from what it is being. It |
D:Day40.22 | with fear is all that has provided the “I” of the separated | self. But because you exist as an extension of love, you have always |
D:Day40.30 | to be known and to know. Can you give up the ideal of your separated | self in order to be known? In order to know? |
E.5 | where the differences between this natural Self and your former | self lie. You will realize that you know what to do. You will realize |
A.22 | end reliance on the ego-mind and to leave the hell of the separate | self behind. What will be demonstrated and shared is the perfect |
A.49 | Who You Are. This is not a voice of separation or of the separated | self but a voice of union and of the One Self. It is how union is |

C:P.43 | You were your | Self before you began your learning, and the ego cannot take your |
C:P.43 | Self before you began your learning, and the ego cannot take your | Self from you but only can obscure it. Thus the teachings you need |
C:P.43 | teachings you need now are to help you separate the ego from your | Self, to help you learn to hear only one voice. |
C:1.1 | Your recognition of what love is will return you to God and your | Self. |
C:1.3 | it does not realize its heart is beating. You are no less your | Self even though you do not realize that without love you would not |
C:1.10 | that you learn because it is only in union with me that you are your | Self. All your effort is based on disbelief of this truth, and your |
C:2.6 | love incorrectly is to continue to be unable to identify your | Self. |
C:2.9 | forget. This forgetting is the work of your ego. Your true | Self does not want to forget, and cannot for even the tiniest |
C:2.9 | fraction of a second. It is precisely the inability of your true | Self to forget that gives you hope of learning to recognize love, |
C:2.10 | Your real | Self is the Christ in you. How could it be anything but love, or see |
C:4.4 | your longing for love, you recognize as well your longing for your | Self. Why would you wonder who you are and what your purpose here is |
C:4.6 | Child of God, you are alien here but need not be alien to your | Self. In your knowledge of your Self, all threat of time and space |
C:4.6 | here but need not be alien to your Self. In your knowledge of your | Self, all threat of time and space and place dissolves. You may still |
C:4.11 | perceptions to be false, including the one you hold of your own | Self. |
C:4.14 | expected, you might forget to guard your heart or to keep your real | Self in hiding. How dangerous indeed is such an act in a world where |
C:5.2 | worthy of your thought: the purpose of joining with your real | Self, the Christ in you. |
C:5.3 | you learn, because it is only in union with me that you are your | Self. Now we must expand your understanding of union and of |
C:5.17 | joining. What you join with becomes real. As you take it into your | Self you thereby make it real because you make it one with your real |
C:5.17 | Self you thereby make it real because you make it one with your real | Self. This is reality. All you do not join with remains outside and |
C:5.29 | both human and divine. What your human self has forgotten, your real | Self retains for you, waiting only for your welcome to make it known |
C:6.19 | are holy, and from them you can find the way to Him and to your holy | Self. |
C:7.2 | cannot receive a piece of heaven nor know a piece of God or your own | Self. Your giving must be total for you to receive in truth. We will |

C:7.7 | with, something you hold sacrosanct. This is your Self. Yet this | Self that you hold so dear that you will never let it go is precisely |

C:10.30 | the separated self giving way to the expanded vision of the unified | Self. As you feel this happening, you will begin to be aware of |
C:11.2 | hang on refrigerator doors or office walls. You did not create your | Self, and yet you make of life a recreation of yourself and in so |
C:12.8 | made to God’s creation. This change seeks but to restore you to your | Self. |
C:12.9 | Your | Self rests totally unchanged within the Christ in you. |
C:12.9 | your relationship with your brother is what will show your | Self to you. You have one brother who wears but many faces in your |

C:12.10 | for separation brought about, and it is but a separation from your | Self. This is the most difficult point to get across, because in it |

C:15.3 | While you desire specialness for yourself, your true | Self will remain hidden and unknown, and since this is a Course that |
C:15.3 | you will desire it no longer. You can have specialness or your true | Self, but never both. The desire for specialness is what calls your |
C:16.21 | step toward your identity achieved through the awakening of love of | Self. |
C:16.26 | If you cannot claim at least a small amount of love for your own | Self, then neither can you claim your power, for they go |
C:16.26 | but work instead for the return of heaven and the return of your own | Self. |
C:17.2 | aware of. Let’s just say the space that you would fill as your own | Self is held for you by another part of your consciousness that has |
C:17.2 | Your choice to separate from God is but a separation from your own | Self, and this is truly the separation that needs to be healed to |

C:17.13 | you by the most loving of brothers, a brother united with your own | Self. |
C:18.8 | a link in the chain of creation. Imagine again this chain and your | Self among those who comprise it, and imagine the life that you |
C:18.14 | by a mind and heart combined in wholeheartedness. You knew your | Self to be the creator, and loved all that you created. You did not |
C:18.16 | have only perceived as separate. If the heart is the center of your | Self, where then is the mind? The center is but the Source in which |
C:18.24 | not that you react to pain of any kind with the love from your real | Self that would dispel it. The Self you have taken out of the |
C:18.24 | any kind with the love from your real Self that would dispel it. The | Self you have taken out of the learning loop is the Self of love. |

C:19.15 | of coming to know what lies before you now—coming to know your own | Self—it is obvious that another’s experience will not bring this |
C:19.16 | state of being, and it can do so again. As you join with your own | Self in unity, all that in love you have created and received returns |
C:19.24 | has long been a culprit that has kept union, even with your own | Self, undesirable to you. The concept that in oneness there is no |
C:20.30 | in all creation. Thus your expression of love is as unique as your | Self. It is in the cooperation between unique expressions of love |
C:23.5 | to know, the only one who does not transcend total knowing, is your | Self. |
C:23.6 | your relationship with God is how you know both God and your | Self. |
C:23.8 | in relationship. This comes from ego rather than from the true | Self. |
C:23.13 | form of another kind. A wholehearted belief in the truth about your | Self is what is required to cause this to be so. It is what is |
C:25.17 | Living in love in every instance is what occurs when the whole | Self is involved in the love of life. There are no “parts” of the |
C:25.17 | Self is involved in the love of life. There are no “parts” of the | Self fractioned off and holding resentments. There are no “parts” of |
C:25.17 | Self fractioned off and holding resentments. There are no “parts” of | Self living in the past or the future. There is not a “mindful” Self |
C:25.17 | of Self living in the past or the future. There is not a “mindful” | Self living separately from a “soulful” Self. There is not a “worker” |
C:25.17 | There is not a “mindful” Self living separately from a “soulful” | Self. There is not a “worker” Self living separately from a |

C:26.23 | of your birth in unison with God’s idea of you is acceptance of your | Self as co-creator of the pattern of the universe, acceptance of the |
C:27.3 | is in coming to know through relationship that you come to know your | Self. |
C:27.5 | the divine. You become confused between the personal self and a true | Self only because you have not as yet identified your true Self. Once |
C:27.5 | a true Self only because you have not as yet identified your true | Self. Once you have identified your true Self all such confusion will |
C:27.5 | as yet identified your true Self. Once you have identified your true | Self all such confusion will end. |
C:27.6 | the only being who is not beyond the limits of total knowing is the | Self. Thus it is in knowing the Self that all is known. |
C:27.6 | the limits of total knowing is the Self. Thus it is in knowing the | Self that all is known. |
C:27.7 | When you fully realize that the only way to know the | Self is through relationship, your concerns about concentration on |
C:27.8 | If you can only come to know your | Self through relationship, you can only come to know God through |
C:27.10 | by contemplating such an idea. And so you must be reassured of the | Self you are. |
C:27.11 | and see that no two bodies on this earth are exactly the same, the | Self you are is a unique Self. A Self of relationship does not imply |
C:27.11 | on this earth are exactly the same, the Self you are is a unique | Self. A Self of relationship does not imply a Self that is the same |
C:27.11 | earth are exactly the same, the Self you are is a unique Self. A | Self of relationship does not imply a Self that is the same as all |
C:27.11 | you are is a unique Self. A Self of relationship does not imply a | Self that is the same as all the rest. But it does imply a Self that |
C:27.11 | imply a Self that is the same as all the rest. But it does imply a | Self that is integral to all the rest. You matter, and you matter as |
C:27.15 | Living in relationship is living from your center, the heart of your | Self. It is complete reliance on relationship itself rather than on |
C:27.21 | Do you trust these words? Do you trust in God? Can you trust in your | Self? |
C:29.10 | you cannot imagine God toiling, so you should cease to imagine your | Self doing thus. |
C:29.22 | has and then to call it special. You claim in order to reclaim your | Self. |
C:30.1 | 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 own being, you |
C:30.2 | for your being. You attempt to learn for something other than your | Self, for some purpose other than your Self. Thus was service given |
C:30.2 | for something other than your Self, for some purpose other than your | Self. Thus was service given another route for being separated from |
C:30.2 | Thus was service given another route for being separated from the | Self and your function here. When you learn in order to contribute |
C:30.2 | to contribute something to your work and your world, you bypass your | Self. |
C:30.3 | and inhale the world around you in order to make it part of your | Self. Be like the little children, and learn in order to claim your |
C:30.3 | little children, and learn in order to claim your learning for your | Self. Learn who you are through each experience rather than learning |
C:30.5 | when it is at first achieved. For universal consciousness is knowing | Self, while you think it is knowing all. Knowing Self is knowing all, |
C:30.5 | is knowing Self, while you think it is knowing all. Knowing | Self is knowing all, but this you do not as yet understand. |
C:30.6 | Universal consciousness is being in relationship. It is the true | Self, the known Self, in all its glorious relationship with life. All |
C:30.6 | is being in relationship. It is the true Self, the known | Self, in all its glorious relationship with life. All matter is born |
C:30.6 | life. All matter is born and dies. All life is forever. The known | Self realizes this and begins to act in accordance with this knowing. |
C:30.7 | who knows, truly knows, the simplest truth of the identity of the | Self no longer lives in a dualistic position with God, but in a |
C:31.2 | body, such as those of survival, are not the thoughts of the true | Self. This is the clarification that needs to be made for some of you |
C:31.9 | projection to understand the nature of perfection and your own | Self as Creator and Created. Being part of the whole that is your |
C:31.10 | Give up this notion of losing your | Self to God, and you will be done for all time with resisting God. |
C:31.10 | done for all time with resisting God. Only in God can you find your | Self. This is known to you, and is the reason for man’s quest for God |
C:31.10 | or for an afterlife. But man has always looked to God for his own | Self. Not looking to God to find your Self would be akin to searching |
C:31.10 | looked to God for his own Self. Not looking to God to find your | Self would be akin to searching everywhere but the Earth for |
C:31.11 | have higher thoughts, and knows that these higher thoughts are your | Self. Rather than discriminating between higher and lower thoughts, |
C:31.14 | in truth. Put another way, all this says is that in order to be your | Self, you have to share your Self. What you keep you lose. This is |
C:31.14 | this says is that in order to be your Self, you have to share your | Self. What you keep you lose. This is the principle of giving and |
C:31.15 | that fill your mind day-to-day with thoughts that keep you from your | Self. |
C:31.19 | you do not know the truth about yourself. If you remembered your | Self, notions such as confession being good for the soul would be no |
C:31.19 | good for the soul would be no more. But in order to remember your | Self, you need a means of learning who you are. Everything that has |
C:31.28 | Just as you look to God for your | Self, knowing not what it is you seek, so too do you look to your |
C:31.29 | If you can look for your | Self within your brothers and sisters, however, they must also be |
C:31.31 | the truth of any brother or sister, you find the truth about your | Self, for the truth does not change. And if who you truly are is the |
C:31.32 | truth that salvation lies. Salvation is simply your return to your | Self. |
C:31.34 | your brother and sister that you recognize the truth about your | Self. It is only in relationship that this occurs, because only in |
C:32.2 | truth you will not, in coming to know and experience this, lose your | Self. The way in which you experience relationship with each aspect |
C:32.4 | to Love, and your relationship with Love has returned you to your | Self. Think not. This Course requires no thought and no effort. There |
C:32.4 | and heart. Be true to love and you cannot fail to be true to your | Self. |
T1:1.7 | return to love and it is accessed at the center or heart of your | Self. Your mind was in need of silencing in order for you to hear the |
T1:2.4 | which all responses flow. As your heart is the Source of your true | Self, your thoughts, once removed from those of the ego-mind are the |
T1:2.4 | those of the ego-mind are the expression and extension of your true | Self. They are the answer of the Created to the Creator, the answer |
T1:2.4 | They are the answer of the Created to the Creator, the answer of the | Self to God. |
T1:4.4 | we have more properly identified the miracle, you must see that your | Self is what is in need of identification and acknowledgment. This |
T1:4.4 | the glory of God than the sun? This is a call to be as aware of your | Self as you are capable of being aware of the sunset. |
T1:4.5 | has at times remained no more than object to you. So too has your | Self. When your Self is seen as no more than a body it is seen as |
T1:4.5 | remained no more than object to you. So too has your Self. When your | Self is seen as no more than a body it is seen as little more than an |
T1:4.9 | is all you are asked to give. This response comes from within the | Self—the rightly identified and acknowledged Self. |

T1:4.10 | to care for the world outside of yourself rather than for your | Self. |
T1:4.22 | “The truth shall be revealed to you” is the same as saying “Your | Self shall be revealed to you.” |
T1:4.24 | with God in the sense that it is direct communication from a | Self you have known not, the Self that is one with the Creator. |
T1:4.24 | that it is direct communication from a Self you have known not, the | Self that is one with the Creator. |
T1:4.26 | self. Now we must expand upon this thought, for doubt about your | Self is doubt about God. While God is nothing but the Source of Love, |
T1:5.1 | of God remained? The only answer possible is because fear of the | Self has remained. |
T1:5.5 | nothingness is fear of God, fear of Life, fear of Creation, fear of | Self. For there is only all and nothing. |
T1:5.9 | you and thus where your heart has been held captive. Thus, your real | Self is not present in the realm of the truly real, but is actually |
T1:5.9 | is why all seeking must turn within, toward the heart where the real | Self abides. There is nothing else that will free who you are but |
T1:5.10 | union, or being wholehearted. It is the real you or center of your | Self, being joined with the only thought system that is real, the |
T1:6.4 | heart being joined in wholeheartedness. It is your union with your | Self. Union with your Self is union with God. Thus your concentration |
T1:6.4 | wholeheartedness. It is your union with your Self. Union with your | Self is union with God. Thus your concentration must not stray back |
T1:6.5 | are ready to walk through them to a real relationship with God and | Self. But this is not the concept of prayer of which we speak nor one |
T1:6.9 | is the reason for which you are here. It is your return to your | Self. It heralds the return of heaven through the second coming of |
T1:8.11 | the bringing forth of the new through union with the divine | Self. Whether you believe the virgin birth was reality or myth |
T1:9.7 | first union is of mind and heart. The first union is union with the | Self. This union with the Self is resurrection or rebirth. All are |
T1:9.7 | heart. The first union is union with the Self. This union with the | Self is resurrection or rebirth. All are capable of this life-giving |
T1:9.7 | capable of this life-giving union. All are capable of birthing the | Self. |
T1:9.8 | of the necessary act of giving and receiving? In this birth of the | Self, who is the giver and who is the receiver? In order for the Self |
T1:9.8 | the Self, who is the giver and who is the receiver? In order for the | Self to be birthed, giving and receiving must be one in truth. Yet it |
T1:10.1 | to be feeling. There is a core of peace at the center of your | Self now and the issues that you choose to deal with will not affect |
T1:10.13 | that it is here, you will not know the Peace of God that is your own | Self. |
T2:3.4 | self of learning and experience, and the Christ-Self that is now the | Self of learning and experience. You must take on the mantle of your |
T2:3.4 | You must take on the mantle of your new identity, your new | Self. |
T2:4.4 | how to live as who you are, how to act within the world as the new | Self you have identified. Just like learning how to swim, it is a new |
T2:4.6 | is a learned ability for you now as you journey back to your real | Self. It requires remembrance, trust, and a wholehearted approach |
T2:6.9 | You are creating the state of unity as a new reality for your | Self even though it is actually a return to what has always been. You |
T2:6.10 | mistaken for heavenly deities separate from you. The Christ is your | Self as you were created and remain. The Christ is the accomplished |
T2:6.10 | Self as you were created and remain. The Christ is the accomplished | Self. |
T2:7.16 | circumstance and in every relationship. Real trust begins with your | Self. |
T2:7.17 | a desire to not express thoughts and feelings unworthy of your real | Self. You may have increasingly denied thoughts and feelings you |
T2:7.19 | required to be who you are is a discipline that requires trust in | Self and honesty in relationships. Does this mean that you are |
T2:7.19 | for them. You do not deny them. You bring them first to your | Self, to the Self joined in unity at the place of your heart. From |
T2:7.19 | You do not deny them. You bring them first to your Self, to the | Self joined in unity at the place of your heart. From this place you |
T2:7.19 | illusion separated, you develop the discipline to express your true | Self, as you are now. This is the only way the Self you are now has |
T2:7.19 | to express your true Self, as you are now. This is the only way the | Self you are now has to grow and change. This is the only means the |
T2:7.19 | Self you are now has to grow and change. This is the only means the | Self you are now has of giving and receiving as one. This is the only |
T2:8.2 | of Love, the one you come to know through relationship is your | Self. This is the learning ground on which you now stand. All that |
T2:8.4 | These are all calls to know your | Self and to act on this knowing. These are calls to truth and but |
T2:8.6 | to the special relationships that would take you away from your true | Self. Never again will you be away from home for home is who you are, |
T2:10.13 | The Christ in you is the real you. The Christ in you is the | Self who you become when you have united heart and mind once again in |
T2:13.2 | Now that you have been made ready, I am ready to return you to your | Self. Now that you have been made ready, it is time for us to have a |
T3:1.3 | is what has led to the world you see. A true representation of the | Self that you are is what we work toward in this Treatise and will |
T3:1.9 | of the personal self as a representation, you become aware of the | Self whom the personal self is representing. To have believed that |
T3:1.9 | who you were, was an illusion that blocked awareness of your true | Self from your mind. Your true Self is now ready to come out of the |
T3:1.9 | that blocked awareness of your true Self from your mind. Your true | Self is now ready to come out of the mist of illusion in which it was |
T3:1.12 | To become a whole | Self, with no parts hidden, a Self with no parts in truth, is the |
T3:1.12 | To become a whole Self, with no parts hidden, a | Self with no parts in truth, is the task that I set before you and am |
T3:1.12 | me, the accomplished. As has already been said, the accomplished | Self is the Christ. Your remembrance of the Christ-Self has abolished |
T3:2.1 | and the original purpose of representation being to share the | Self in a new way. Expressions you call art are desires to share the |
T3:2.1 | Self in a new way. Expressions you call art are desires to share the | Self in a new way. These expressions you call art are expressions of |
T3:2.1 | in a new way. These expressions you call art are expressions of a | Self who observes and interacts in relationship. They are not |
T3:2.1 | consider the self in separation. They are rather expressions of the | Self in union—expressions of what the Self sees, feels, envisions, |
T3:2.1 | rather expressions of the Self in union—expressions of what the | Self sees, feels, envisions, imagines in relationship. |
T3:2.3 | way, to share yourself in a new way. The choice to represent your | Self in form was a choice for separation but not because separation |
T3:2.5 | of your separated state was a step away from God and your real | Self. This belief was based in logic, but the logic of the illusion— |
T3:2.6 | leaves untruth, or the ego, behind. It is only this one, unaltered | Self that is the truth of who you are and who your brothers and |
T3:2.8 | not all that is called art is art, and not all that you call self is | Self, even while both may represent the truth as you perceive of it. |
T3:2.9 | has no ability to change the meaning of truth. And so your | Self has remained unaltered as has all to which you have assigned |
T3:2.10 | Thus you stand at the beginning, with a | Self now devoid of the meaninglessness you but attempted to assign to |
T3:2.11 | steps “back” to the God you believe you left in defiance, or the | Self you believe you abandoned there. Be truthful with yourself now |
T3:2.11 | that it is not God who abandoned you, but you who abandoned your | Self and God. Give up your desire to think that if you did such a |
T3:2.11 | believable, is not one that includes a need to abandon your | Self or God. Why should you be more inclined to believe that you left |
T3:3.6 | not loveable, only that you have not yet fully recognized your true | Self. Until you fully recognize your Self, you cannot fully love |
T3:3.6 | yet fully recognized your true Self. Until you fully recognize your | Self, you cannot fully love yourself. Until you fully love, you do |
T3:3.9 | you for I have always recognized you. While your recognition of your | Self has come a long way through your learning of this Course, your |
T3:3.10 | The | Self that I recognize as You, is not other than who you are, but who |
T3:5.4 | them away, was as much a part of the survival mechanism of your real | Self as was the rush to rebuild a part of the survival mechanism of |
T3:5.7 | ego-self and to allow the personal self to live on as the one true | Self, the one true son of God. The gift of redemption was given once |
T3:5.8 | passing. What this means is that in each the ego will die and the | Self be reborn to life eternal. Without rebirth of the Self, the |
T3:5.8 | die and the Self be reborn to life eternal. Without rebirth of the | Self, the original purpose goes unfulfilled. Since God is original |
T3:6.4 | but that you are still in the process of learning that your | Self is not vengeful. The ego has given you many reasons to be |
T3:6.4 | The ego has given you many reasons to be distrustful of your | Self, beginning with the idea of your abandonment here. Since the ego |
T3:7.6 | rooms and in some you were even capable of representing your true | Self. This representation of the true Self within the house of |
T3:7.6 | of representing your true Self. This representation of the true | Self within the house of illusion was like an explosion happening |
T3:7.7 | In the aftermath of the explosion, the representation of the true | Self settled like dust, and all the attention fell upon it. A great |
T3:8.9 | As the representations of the true | Self within the house of illusion caused explosions and a fallout of |
T3:8.9 | explosions and a fallout of treasure, the representation of the true | Self within the House of Truth will cause the creation of the new. |
T3:10.9 | yourself and that you are no longer called to doubt yourself. Your | Self is now your Christ-Self. |
T3:10.10 | all the rest of the ego’s thought system, was learned. Your true | Self has no cause for uncertainty. Thus you are called, as well, to |
T3:10.14 | unlearning the ego thought system, the thought system of your true | Self will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon forget |
T3:11.2 | Those existing within the House of Truth also feel an awareness of | Self. Without necessarily being able to put it into words, they no |
T3:11.2 | recognition of the unity of all things with which the | Self coexists in truth and peace and love. |
T3:12.1 | the statement of “I am.” “I am” preceded the creation of the | Self. The Self preceded the establishment of the personal self. |

T3:13.2 | such times, you will not be dwelling within the peace of God. Your | Self and God will be but memories to you while your reality remains |
T3:13.14 | your ideas forms a relationship between your physical form and your | Self as your physical self represents, in form, the thought or image |
T3:13.14 | self represents, in form, the thought or image produced within the | Self. Ideas, in the context in which we are speaking of them here, |
T3:13.14 | speaking of them here, are thoughts or images originating from the | Self and being represented by the personal self. It is only in this |
T3:13.14 | in this way that the personal self will be able to represent the | Self in truth. |
T3:14.14 | page, a new Genesis. It begins now. It begins with the rebirth of a | Self of love. It begins with the birth of Christ in you and in your |
T3:15.10 | of the mind and heart in unity. The holy relationship is with the | Self, the Self that abides in unity with all within the House of |
T3:15.10 | mind and heart in unity. The holy relationship is with the Self, the | Self that abides in unity with all within the House of Truth. This |
T3:15.10 | with all within the House of Truth. This relationship makes the | Self one with all and so brings the holiness of the Self to all. |
T3:15.10 | makes the Self one with all and so brings the holiness of the | Self to all. |
T3:15.13 | you have learned. Learning was needed in order to return you to your | Self. Despite whatever method you feel you used to learn what you |
T3:16.4 | feel you need in order to reflect, within your daily life, the new | Self you have become. |
T3:16.15 | aside any fears that others will suffer due to the changes your new | Self will create. As you live with awareness of the love of God |
T3:16.15 | special love relationships. You will realize that the love and the | Self you now have available to share in relationship are all that you |
T3:17.1 | the truth? As we have already shown, to have chosen to express the | Self in physical form was a choice consistent with the laws of love. |
T3:17.1 | a choice consistent with the laws of love. There was no need for the | Self to be separate in order for this to be so, but there was a need |
T3:17.1 | be separate in order for this to be so, but there was a need for the | Self to have an observable form and to exist in relationship with |
T3:17.5 | during the time of your experience in physical form. Since your true | Self could not learn the untrue, a new self, which we have called the |
T3:17.5 | was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the true, your true | Self had to be appealed to for this learning to take place. |
T3:17.6 | stories, the Holy Spirit is always called upon to return the true | Self to the self of illusion. A Holy Spirit is called to return to |
T3:17.8 | of Christ, or your ability and willingness to live as your true | Self, to live in the House of Truth rather than the house of |
T3:18.2 | spoken of them here. Observation, the ability to observe what the | Self expresses, was part of the original choice for physical form. |
T3:18.10 | You can observe this within yourself because it exists within your | Self. What exists within you is shared by all. This is the |
T3:19.6 | lack. Yet the body has no will and the survival of the true | Self is not based upon it. |
T3:19.9 | began the experience in physical form, the thought of expressing the | Self in observable form. |
T3:20.17 | love and trust that none will remain forever lost to his or her own | Self. |
T3:21.5 | Your real | Self exists in truth. It does not exist in illusion. |
T3:21.7 | The only means for the personal self and the true | Self to exist together is for the truth to be lived in time. In order |
T3:21.17 | the form of your personal self. As your true identity is that of a | Self who exists in unity and the identity of your personal self is |
T3:21.21 | separate east from west. This is why this call to return to your | Self is being sounded far and wide and why it goes out to humble and |
T3:21.24 | as it relates to the relationship between the personal self and the | Self; the truth and its representation and observance. |
T3:22.10 | this Treatise with lessons concerning observation of your new | Self. |
T3:22.11 | acts of comparison will arise out of this observation of your new | Self, for you cannot observe your new Self without observing the |
T3:22.11 | this observation of your new Self, for you cannot observe your new | Self without observing the truth that has always existed. The truth |
T3:22.11 | existed is our oneness, and what you will observe about your new | Self you will observe about all. We will be one body, one Self. No |
T3:22.11 | your new Self you will observe about all. We will be one body, one | Self. No comparison will be possible. You will realize that |
T3:22.17 | have called “closed eyes” observation is really the observation of a | Self beyond the personal self. To call forth observance is to call |
T3:22.17 | To call forth observance is to call forth the sight of your true | Self. To call forth the sight of your true Self is to call your true |
T3:22.17 | the sight of your true Self. To call forth the sight of your true | Self is to call your true Self into observable form. Calling the true |
T3:22.17 | Self. To call forth the sight of your true Self is to call your true | Self into observable form. Calling the true Self forth into |
T3:22.17 | is to call your true Self into observable form. Calling the true | Self forth into observable form is the end of the old and the |
T3:22.18 | with impatience only for the truth. Hold this impatience to your | Self as eagerness for the final lessons, lessons on creation of the |
T4:1.11 | Course is if you are willing to make the choice to come to know your | Self and God now. This is the same as being asked if you are willing |
T4:1.11 | you must understand is that all choices will lead to knowledge of | Self and God, as no choices are offered that are not such. All are |
T4:1.12 | As was said within “A Treatise on the Personal | Self,” even the house of illusion is held within the embrace of love, |
T4:1.16 | As was said within “A Treatise on the Personal | Self,” all notions of blame must be gone from you. Thus, you are |
T4:2.3 | been a proponent of The Way of Christ-consciousness as The Way to | Self and God. |
T4:2.4 | There was no Way or path or process back to God and | Self before me. It was the time of man wandering in the wilderness. I |
T4:2.4 | to show The Way to Christ-consciousness, which is The Way to God and | Self. But I also came to provide an intermediary, for this is what |
T4:2.4 | between the human or forgotten self and the divine or remembered | Self. Jesus the man was the intermediary who ushered in the time of |
T4:2.4 | human or forgotten self with the spirit of the divine or remembered | Self. Although God never abandoned the humans who seeded the Earth, |
T4:2.8 | human from any time with true vision, you would see the accomplished | Self there. There can be no judgment carried forward with you and |
T4:2.10 | definition of observation provided in “A Treatise on the Personal | Self.” |
T4:2.13 | the ego, but you also are not yet completely certain of your | Self and in your uncertainty, still subject to the patterns of |
T4:2.15 | The ability to observe what the | Self expresses was among the original reasons for this chosen |
T4:2.15 | before you began your learning of this Course. Your awareness of the | Self that you are now was not present in the past, but you can truly |
T4:2.15 | you can truly now, with the devotion of the observant, see that the | Self you are now was indeed present, and the truth of who you were |
T4:2.19 | whom you would seek to evangelize or convince are as holy as your | Self. This holiness need only be observed. When you think in terms of |
T4:2.20 | of the most high? Your brothers and sisters are as holy as your | Self. Holiness is the natural harmony of all that was created as it |
T4:3.4 | original intent of this chosen experience was the expression of the | Self of love in observable form. This original intent or cause formed |
T4:3.5 | intent remained within you and caused you to attempt to express a | Self of love despite your fear, fear has thwarted your every effort |
T4:4.16 | die to the personal self of form in order to be reborn as a true | Self. This is an old way of thinking. Have we not worked throughout |
T4:4.16 | in relationship is the joining of the personal self with the true | Self in the reality in which you exist now. Remember, the heart must |
T4:4.17 | Can you not see the necessity of removing the idea that your true | Self will be returned to you only through death? What purpose would |
T4:4.18 | What purpose will death serve when your true | Self has joined with your physical form? You will see it simply as |
T4:4.18 | being. This union will take you beyond the goal of expressing your | Self in form because this goal but reflected the desire for a |
T4:5.10 | to make the choice to be aware of who you truly are. To know your | Self as my brother or sister in Christ; to be the Body of Christ. |
T4:7.2 | as during the time of the Holy Spirit, your understanding of your | Self and God grew through the indirect means that were available to |
T4:7.2 | to you, during the time of Christ, your understanding of your | Self and God cannot help but grow through the direct and observable |
T4:7.7 | bring you the lessons you would learn in order to return you to your | Self and the unity of Christ-consciousness. The same is true of all |
T4:10.3 | and music as you studied the lessons that kept you focused on your | Self, but you did, in a sense, study every aspect of your life for |
T4:10.8 | The learning that was applied to anything other than the | Self could not help but have an outcome that had to do with other |
T4:10.8 | not help but have an outcome that had to do with other than the | Self. Means and end are one, cause and effect the same. Thus this |
T4:10.9 | The learning you have accomplished in regards to your | Self could not help but have an outcome that had to do with your |
T4:10.9 | Self could not help but have an outcome that had to do with your | Self. Means and end are one, cause and effect the same. Thus this |
T4:10.9 | unity and relationship through unity and relationship with the | Self. |
T4:10.10 | The first accomplishment of your learning about your | Self was the return of unity and relationship to your mind and heart. |
T4:10.10 | This returned to you your ability to recognize or identify your | Self as other than a separate being, and led the way to your |
T4:10.11 | to allow you to fulfill the desired experience of expressing the | Self of love in form. No longer learning is the revelation that the |
T4:10.11 | the time of accomplishment is upon you and the expression of the | Self of love in form is what you are now ready to do. Learning was |
T4:10.12 | Expression of the | Self of love in form is not something that can be learned. It is |
T4:10.12 | neither sow nor reap but sing a song of gladness. Expression of the | Self of love is the natural state of being of those who have moved |
D:1.2 | I come to you today as co-Creator of the | Self you are and the Self you hope to represent with your physical |
D:1.2 | I come to you today as co-Creator of the Self you are and the | Self you hope to represent with your physical form. I come to you |
D:1.2 | not as a personal self who is “other” than you, but as a divine | Self who is the same as you. In our union we bear the sameness of the |
D:1.2 | or plan, you need only to claim your inheritance, your gifts, your | Self. |
D:1.3 | terms is that you let the personal self step back and the true | Self step forward. Realize that all of your “concerns” are still for |
D:1.3 | going forth much as it did before. You do not “see” the new, the new | Self of elevated form or the true Self of divine union. You “see” the |
D:1.3 | You do not “see” the new, the new Self of elevated form or the true | Self of divine union. You “see” the separated self still “trying,” |
D:1.3 | and order of the universe extending into the realm of the elevated | Self, the space of the elevated Self. As long as you see in this way, |
D:1.3 | into 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 |
D:1.3 | self in the stepping back that is required in order for the true | Self to step forward. |
D:1.9 | real danger in this time. You are not called to selflessness but to | Self ! |
D:1.10 | you have felt yourself to be in. The ego is gone but the true | Self has not been allowed as yet to dwell within the personal self, |
D:1.11 | you have been called to be. Open your dwelling place to your true | Self, your true identity. Imagine this opening and this replacement |
D:1.11 | self being enfolded, embraced, and finally consumed—taken into the | Self of union. The body of Christ becomes real through this |
D:1.14 | longer the personal self who was separate and alone. I am my Christ | Self. I dwell in unity. My identity is certain. This is the truth. I |
D:1.17 | They can serve as reminders as you continue to become the | Self you have learned that you are. But further learning is not what |
D:1.17 | complete the transformation of the personal self to the elevated | Self. Learning will not sustain Christ-consciousness. |
D:1.23 | outside of yourself for guidance for you would realize that your | Self is all there is. We are one body, one Christ. We are one Self. |
D:1.23 | your Self is all there is. We are one body, one Christ. We are one | Self. |
D:1.24 | Your | Self is not the person you have been since birth. Your body does not |
D:1.24 | yourself, you now must come to see only as a representation of your | Self. You are everything and everyone. All that you see is you. You |
D:1.27 | unity in which we truly exist together, as one body, one Christ, one | Self. |
D:2.22 | on learned wisdom for answers. Looking within is turning to the real | Self and the consciousness shared by all for the creation of a new |
D:3.5 | The mending of the rift between heart and mind returned you to your | Self. In the same way, the mending of the rift of duality will return |
D:3.5 | way, the mending of the rift of duality will return the world to its | Self. The mending of the rift of duality was accomplished in you when |
D:3.8 | through the art of thought begun to integrate them into the elevated | Self of form. These are really not new ideas, however, but rather |
D:3.8 | of who you truly are birthed within the self of form so that the | Self and the elevated Self of form are able to work with ideas |
D:3.8 | birthed within the self of form so that the Self and the elevated | Self of form are able to work with ideas birthed from the same source. |
D:3.12 | elevated form, which now represents the shared consciousness of the | Self, is not separate from the shared consciousness. Thus giving and |
D:3.12 | Thus giving and receiving as one is now the nature of the elevated | Self of form, and what we work toward through this dialogue is your |
D:3.15 | What might this mean to the elevated | Self of form? Using this dialogue as an example will serve to |
D:3.15 | being shared. So too is it with you. You, as the elevated | Self of form, are a continual representation of what is continuously |
D:3.15 | creation. A representation of union. You are a representation of the | Self. |
D:3.16 | As the | Self, you are giver and receiver. Your Self is a full participant in |
D:3.16 | As the Self, you are giver and receiver. Your | Self is a full participant in this dialogue. You as the Self are the |
D:3.16 | Your Self is a full participant in this dialogue. You as the | Self are the truth. You as the Self are the creator and the created. |
D:3.16 | in this dialogue. You as the Self are the truth. You as the | Self are the creator and the created. You as the Self are union |
D:3.16 | truth. You as the Self are the creator and the created. You as the | Self are union itself. This is what awareness is about. Consciousness |
D:3.17 | you will still be looking to something or someone “other” than your | Self rather than seeking the awareness that exists within. |
D:3.18 | This is not meant to convey any division between the | Self and the elevated Self of form, but to demonstrate that there is |
D:3.18 | not meant to convey any division between the Self and the elevated | Self of form, but to demonstrate that there is a difference in form |
D:3.18 | but to demonstrate that there is a difference in form between the | Self and the elevated Self of form. The Self was and will always |
D:3.18 | that there is a difference in form between the Self and the elevated | Self of form. The Self was and will always remain more than the body. |
D:3.18 | in form between the Self and the elevated Self of form. The | Self was and will always remain more than the body. The body, |
D:3.18 | remain more than the body. The body, however, is also newly the | Self. The body is also, newly, one body, one Christ. |
D:3.19 | It is this difference that exists between the | Self and the elevated Self of form that makes of us creators of the |
D:3.19 | It is this difference that exists between the Self and the elevated | Self of form that makes of us creators of the new, because the |
D:3.19 | of form that makes of us creators of the new, because the elevated | Self of form is new. The Self is eternal. Your Self of elevated form |
D:3.19 | creators of the new, because the elevated Self of form is new. The | Self is eternal. Your Self of elevated form is newly birthed, just as |
D:3.19 | because the elevated Self of form is new. The Self is eternal. Your | Self of elevated form is newly birthed, just as I was once newly |
D:3.19 | is newly birthed, just as I was once newly birthed even though my | Self was eternal. One of the major things we will be seeing as we |
D:3.21 | this concept of giving and receiving, and that for the elevated | Self of form it is simply a shared quality of oneness. It is not in |
D:4.16 | believing the ego had become an externalized self took you, the true | Self and the true learner, out of the learning loop. Obviously these |
D:4.18 | What was learned 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 |
D:4.29 | order, or original design. As you have been returned to your | Self, now your life must be returned to where it fits within the |
D:4.31 | and yet the same for everyone. That answer is acceptance of your | Self. That answer is acceptance of the new you. |
D:5.14 | learning but to allow all that was created to show the way back to | Self and God to be what it is in truth. This is the return of love to |
D:5.14 | This is the return of love to love. This is acceptance of your | Self. |
D:5.15 | that you are going beyond simple recognition and acceptance of the | Self as God created the Self—to the living of this Self in form. |
D:5.15 | simple recognition and acceptance of the Self as God created the | Self—to the living of this Self in form. This is an acceptance that |
D:5.15 | of the Self as God created the Self—to the living of this | Self in form. This is an acceptance that recognizes that while the |
D:5.15 | Self in form. This is an acceptance that recognizes that while the | Self that God created is eternal and the self of form as ancient as |
D:5.15 | and the self of form as ancient as the sea and stars, the elevated | Self of form is new and will create a new world. |
D:5.21 | already, just how it is going to be possible to live as your new | Self while still in form, while still in a form that seems |
D:6.4 | brought a freedom and a liberation in which you rejoice. Your true | Self is beginning to reveal itself to you in ways of which you will |
D:6.4 | become increasingly aware. As you identify more intimately with the | Self you truly are, the self of form is likely to grow more and more |
D:6.13 | and is part of what brought you, finally, to the quest to know your | Self. |
D:6.24 | have replaced the personal self, the self of learning, with the true | Self. You have accepted your true identity. How could the body now be |
D:6.26 | The body is now the embodiment of the true | Self, the embodiment of love, the embodiment of divinity. Its |
D:6.26 | remember that change occurs in time. Outside of time and form your | Self has always existed in the perfect harmony in which it was |
D:6.26 | in the perfect harmony in which it was created. Now that your | Self has joined the elevated Self of form, you exist together both in |
D:6.26 | in which it was created. Now that your Self has joined the elevated | Self of form, you exist together both in time and outside of time. |
D:6.26 | together both in time and outside of time. Remember, the elevated | Self of form will never be all that you are. This does not imply |
D:6.26 | are. This does not imply however, that there are portions of your | Self missing from this new experience in form you now enter into, but |
D:6.26 | new experience in form you now enter into, but that the elevated | Self of form is now able to join with the Self in the unity of shared |
D:6.26 | but that the elevated Self of form is now able to join with the | Self in the unity of shared consciousness. You are whole once again |
D:6.27 | Everything that is the natural state of the formless. But the true | Self cannot cease to experience its natural state, the state of |
D:6.27 | are both in existence right now. In the state of unity, your true | Self is fully aware of the elevated Self of form and is fully |
D:6.27 | In the state of unity, your true Self is fully aware of the elevated | Self of form and is fully participating in its experiences and |
D:6.27 | is fully participating in its experiences and feelings. The elevated | Self of form, however, being a form that still exists in time, must |
D:6.27 | still exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the true | Self in time. What this means is that the elevated Self of form may |
D:6.27 | of the true Self in time. What this means is that the elevated | Self of form may still need “time” to come to know the changes that |
D:7.6 | whole is being all you are. Being all you are is what the elevated | Self of form represents. |
D:7.10 | the dualistic nature associated with them—now can love all of your | Self, all of God, all of creation. You can respond to love with love. |
D:7.11 | deserving of anything other than love. This call to love all of your | Self is a call to unconditional, nonjudgmental love. It is not just a |
D:7.12 | Remembrance was necessary for your return to your true identity, the | Self as it was created. Remembrance was not about what you did not |
D:7.12 | what you knew but had forgotten. Memory has returned you to your | Self. Discovery will allow the new you to come into being by |
D:7.12 | revealing what you do not yet know about how to live as the elevated | Self of form. |
D:7.17 | Desire is an acknowledgment of the uniqueness of each | Self, and is a demonstration of means and end being the same. Desire |
D:7.17 | of who you are now and what this means as you become the elevated | Self of form. |
D:7.18 | is thus what has separated the self that exists in form from the | Self that exists in union or the state of Christ-consciousness. By |
D:7.18 | in a state outside of time—you have accepted existence as a new | Self, the Self of elevated form. You just do not yet understand what |
D:7.18 | outside of time—you have accepted existence as a new Self, the | Self of elevated form. You just do not yet understand what this means. |
D:7.25 | of evolution in time and proceed to an awareness of how the elevated | Self of form can replace the laws of evolution in time with the laws |
D:7.27 | “larger” home, you will not always be aware of this circle of the | Self as the All of Everything, and it will, in fact, be helpful as we |
D:8.4 | outside of the dot of self to infiltrate the wider circle of the | Self. When you have realized that you are “more” than your body, your |
D:8.5 | To accept this is to accept that you have access to a “given” | Self, to something neither earned nor worked hard to attain. To |
D:8.5 | to attain. To imagine this as an idea is to imagine this “given” | Self as the Self that exists beyond the boundary we have described as |
D:8.5 | To imagine this as an idea is to imagine this “given” Self as the | Self that exists beyond the boundary we have described as the dot of |
D:8.10 | comes from any place other than wholeheartedness is not the true | Self or the true expression of the Self but the self-expression that |
D:8.10 | wholeheartedness is not the true Self or the true expression of the | Self but the self-expression that arises from separation. |
D:8.10 | is still valuable, as it is a sign of yearning toward the true | Self and the true expression of the Self. Thus where you have desired |
D:8.10 | sign of yearning toward the true Self and the true expression of the | Self. Thus where you have desired to express yourself in the past is |
D:8.11 | already accomplished in the fullness and wholeness of the undivided | Self. |
D:8.12 | ability that you recognize as a given and unlearned aspect of your | Self is the doorway. Step through that doorway. Take the first step |
D:10.3 | of what is given to truly come through you and express the | Self, because joyous expression expresses the Self of unity rather |
D:10.3 | you and express the Self, because joyous expression expresses the | Self of unity rather than the self of separation, the Self of |
D:10.3 | expresses the Self of unity rather than the self of separation, the | Self of elevated form rather than the personal self. |
D:10.4 | that already exists in unity is your new work, the work of the | Self of union, the work that can fill you with the true joy of true |
D:10.5 | between what is and the expression of what is by the elevated | Self of form, that the new is created. What is becomes new by |
D:10.5 | relationship becomes the goal and the accomplishment of the elevated | Self of form, the means through which the Self of union is known even |
D:10.5 | of the elevated Self of form, the means through which the | Self of union is known even in the realm of separation, and thus what |
D:10.6 | The goal and relationship of the elevated | Self of form is thus timeless, for it draws from the realm of unity |
D:11.10 | These answers lie within you, at the heart or center of your | Self, as do all answers. Your desire to make of me a teacher is the |
D:11.14 | In other words, the elevated | Self of form does not remain contained within the dot of the body but |
D:11.15 | becomes the contribution, the unique contribution of each elevated | Self of form? The contribution becomes a contribution from the well |
D:11.15 | finds its expression, its unique expression, through the elevated | Self of form. Why would you retain your desire to make an individual |
D:11.18 | from which the expression, the right-minded action of the elevated | Self of form, arises. Unity is the Source of these words. So is it |
D:12.11 | now, and have always had, true thoughts that come to you from your | Self, the Self joined in unity. These are thoughts you did not |
D:12.11 | have always had, true thoughts that come to you from your Self, the | Self joined in unity. These are thoughts you did not “think,” just as |
D:12.12 | sustain Christ consciousness and live in the world as the elevated | Self of form. |
D:12.13 | that is not really thought but the way of coming to know of the | Self joined in unity, enters you through the place of mind and heart |
D:12.14 | the situation of another. Or they may be profound insights into your | Self or the nature of the world. |
D:13.3 | discovery of the previously known but long forgotten identity of the | Self and all that lives along with you. This knowing will, for a |
D:13.7 | trying to bridge the knowing of the separated self and the | Self of union. What you are called to do is to share in union with |
D:14.2 | in mind the idea of “as within, so without.” We are not leaving the | Self to explore, because the Self is the source and cause of |
D:14.2 | so without.” We are not leaving the Self to explore, because the | Self is the source and cause of exploration as well as the source and |
D:14.2 | as well as the source and cause of discovery. And yet the | Self is far more than you have experienced as yourself in the past. |
D:14.3 | The | Self is not separate from anything, not from anything in the physical |
D:14.11 | bringing “out” what is within. As you become aware “within” your | Self, you enable the expansion of awareness into the world. As |
D:14.15 | we have spoken of, to the act of becoming the elevated | Self of form. You are thus entering the time of becoming, the time of |
D:14.17 | what lies beyond body and mind, form and time. Becoming the elevated | Self of form is becoming whole, and will be the way in which source |
D:16.1 | the recreation of wholeness that will be expressed in the elevated | Self of form. |
D:16.6 | is synonymous with identity. When your being and your identity, your | Self and your awareness of Self are whole and complete, being, like |
D:16.6 | When your being and your identity, your Self and your awareness of | Self are whole and complete, being, like love, is no longer capable |
D:16.7 | Love is the state of unity, the only relationship through which the | Self and God become known to you. Love, God, Creation, are all that |
D:16.13 | Only a new you can create a new world. The new you is the elevated | Self of form who you are in the process of becoming. This time of |
D:16.15 | between the time of learning and the time of being the elevated | Self of form; that times still exist in which you are not wholly |
D:17.5 | something different. With having arrived comes the “presence” of | Self so long awaited, the joy of accomplishment, the taste of victory. |
D:17.12 | desire for union would return union to you and return you to your | Self. This is the moment of realization of that accomplishment. But |
D:Day1.1 | Acceptance of me is acceptance of your | Self. Acceptance of me is acceptance of your inheritance. This is |
D:Day1.2 | you send your prayers; although if you do not believe in your | Self above a form of truth, and if you continue to send your prayers |
D:Day1.6 | self, you look back on it and realize why you could not know your | Self while the ego was your guide. You were required to make a choice |
D:Day1.7 | will not know me nor accept me, and you will not know or accept your | Self. |
D:Day1.8 | Why are we so linked that your ability to know your | Self is contingent upon your ability to know me? Because I am. This |
D:Day1.17 | me has grown as you have read these words and grown closer to your | Self. This is because we are One. To know me is to know your Self. |
D:Day1.17 | to your Self. This is because we are One. To know me is to know your | Self. |
D:Day1.24 | Yet this return to paradise, to your true | Self and your true home, is written within you. It only needs to be |
D:Day1.24 | not yet created. To the realization of paradise and of your true | Self and true home, in a form that will take you beyond time to |
D:Day1.27 | as the Son of God, and preceded my time of living as my | Self in the world. So too does it with you. You long for and desire |
D:Day1.29 | we bring about the second coming of Christ and the elevation of the | Self of form. |
D:Day2.1 | Acceptance of your | Self is acceptance of me. Acceptance of your Self is acceptance of |
D:Day2.1 | Acceptance of your Self is acceptance of me. Acceptance of your | Self is acceptance of your inheritance. Now is the time to come into |
D:Day2.1 | time to come into full acceptance of the human self as well as the | Self of unity. It is time for the final merging of the two into one |
D:Day2.1 | Self of unity. It is time for the final merging of the two into one | Self, the elevated Self of form. |
D:Day2.1 | is time for the final merging of the two into one Self, the elevated | Self of form. |
D:Day2.2 | difference between the image you hold of yourself and your present | Self. But still, in unguarded moments, in moments in which you would |
D:Day2.26 | will not happen if you cling to suffering. If you do not accept your | Self, all of yourself, you cling to suffering. |
D:Day2.27 | of suffering. To accept the end of suffering is to accept your true | Self. |
D:Day3.44 | of unity, thus allowing this divine flow of union into the elevated | Self of form. |
D:Day4.41 | But what, you might ask, of the elevated | Self of form? Why is this suddenly a choice between one or the other? |
D:Day4.43 | Or do you wish to go back transformed into the elevated | Self of form? Do you want to know this place of access and carry it |

D:Day4.54 | it cannot remain with you as the way opens for you to fully know the | Self of unity. You are about to achieve your first glimpse of |
D:Day5.4 | a meditation that is not a tool but a function of your natural | Self, is a focus on access. Thus we begin with what feels natural to |
D:Day5.9 | your heart even though we have identified heart as the center of the | Self rather than the pump that functions as part of your body, it |
D:Day5.10 | the purpose of this work was to have you identify love and thus your | Self, correctly, there is still fine-tuning to your understanding to |
D:Day5.10 | you come to know what unity is, and so more fully come to know your | Self and love. |
D:Day5.13 | love still as an individual attribute intimately associated with the | Self you are, you know love is not an attribute and that all love |
D:Day5.14 | expressions. It will be in your unique expression of union that your | Self will come to wholeness and you will be fully who you are and |
D:Day6.1 | We now will discuss being the true | Self while becoming the true Self—the time in between your |
D:Day6.1 | We now will discuss being the true Self while becoming the true | Self—the time in between your awareness of and access to |
D:Day6.1 | between the time of learning and the time of being the elevated | Self of form. This is what our time on this holy mountain is largely |
D:Day7.2 | time of learning would not have been needed had you not denied your | Self. When you saw yourself as separate and alone, you could not help |
D:Day7.3 | Acceptance of your | Self is the precondition for the time of acceptance. You are no |
D:Day7.3 | for the time of acceptance. You are no longer denying your | Self. You are no longer denying unity. You have replaced fear with |
D:Day7.10 | into its own little world and created its own universe. The elevated | Self of form will expand into the world and create a new universe. |
D:Day7.14 | life? Your access to union sustains real life, the life of the | Self, and will come to sustain the elevated Self of form in a way as |
D:Day7.14 | life, the life of the Self, and will come to sustain the elevated | Self of form in a way as natural to you as breathing. |
D:Day7.16 | of union as there are no attributes to love. The natural created | Self is all that is. Reverence prevails. |

D:Day7.19 | of are thus not new conditions. They are conditions natural to your | Self, to a mind and heart joined in union. It was the disjoining of |
D:Day7.19 | in union. It was the disjoining of mind and heart, of the real | Self from the ego-self, that created the need for learning and the |
D:Day8.5 | simple truth that you do not like your job, you have accepted your | Self and where you are now, rather than the external circumstance. We |

D:Day8.7 | been thinking—again, at least subconsciously—that your “real” | Self has no feelings of dislike, and in this confusion have been |
D:Day8.12 | easy to extend this intolerance to others. Once acceptance of the | Self begins to be practiced, you will realize that the self of |
D:Day8.13 | Remember that you have been told that your real | Self will be intolerant only of illusion and that this intolerance |
D:Day8.17 | you come to full acceptance of who you are and be able to allow the | Self of unity to merge with the self of form, thus elevating the self |
D:Day8.17 | will also, only in this way, come to true expression of the elevated | Self of form. Access and expression are both conditions of the |
D:Day8.20 | When you develop a false sense of certainty, you see not the true | Self and the holiness of the true Self being expressed in the |
D:Day8.20 | of certainty, you see not the true Self and the holiness of the true | Self being expressed in the feelings of a present moment situation, |
D:Day8.20 | of a present moment situation, but see a future where the true | Self will be more evolved, evolved enough not to feel the anger or |
D:Day8.23 | Remember always that we work now to unite the | Self of union with the self of form. The self of form cannot be |
D:Day8.26 | is a product of the ego thought system that would keep your true | Self hidden. You are used to hiding the self of the past about whom |
D:Day8.28 | you! That they are but calling you to expression of your true | Self! To true representation of who you are—who you are now! |
D:Day8.29 | to enjoy the freedom of the new, the freedom of being your true | Self. |
D:Day9.2 | your arrival, your return to your true home, your return to your | Self. Laugh. Cry. Shout or wail. Dance and sing. Spin a new web. The |
D:Day9.3 | In other words, express your | Self! |
D:Day9.5 | it? Expression of the certainty of unity is what the elevated | Self of form is all about. Certainty of mind and heart has been |
D:Day9.17 | How will you ever realize, or make real, the | Self you are when you strive to be something else? Just as “finding” |
D:Day9.20 | here together. For if you believe this, you will not accept your | Self as you are. If you do not accept your Self as you are, you will |
D:Day9.20 | you will not accept your Self as you are. If you do not accept your | Self as you are, you will not move from image to presence. If you do |
D:Day9.33 | own abilities—the abilities of the self of form joined with the | Self of union—will be your confidence. Only these combined |
D:Day10.1 | expansion of the power of creation. It is the power of the elevated | Self of form. |
D:Day10.2 | rely on the connection that exists between the self of form and the | Self of union and to, through this reliance, tie the two together so |
D:Day10.6 | Confidence in your feelings will lead to confidence in your | Self. While you think it is your access to unity that will be the |
D:Day10.12 | into the perfect vehicle for the realization of the elevated | Self of form. During this transformation, we work with what is as |
D:Day10.15 | of me as “other than” yourself. You will never fully rely upon your | Self while you hold these images. |
D:Day10.16 | you to replace belief in an outside source with reliance upon your | Self. |
D:Day10.17 | Part of the difficulty you find in accepting reliance on your | Self is what you have “learned” within this Course. As you “learned” |
D:Day10.18 | and the man Jesus. You have “learned” the distinction between your | Self and the man or woman you are. Now you are called to forget what |
D:Day10.19 | presence, of the individual and the universal, is what the elevated | Self of form must encompass. |
D:Day10.20 | realizing that this is the voice that will now animate the elevated | Self of form, or in other words, you. |
D:Day10.21 | to you now as the voice of Christ-consciousness—as your own true | Self—you will not have lost Jesus as your companion and helpmate |
D:Day10.21 | in this dialogue, you will realize you have not lost your | Self but will only know more fully the content of your Self. |
D:Day10.21 | not lost your Self but will only know more fully the content of your | Self. |
D:Day10.24 | of this exchange, for it is a key to your understanding of your | Self and your power. This dialogue, as one-sided as it may seem when |
D:Day10.26 | think would have no place within the ideal self or the elevated | Self of form. |
D:Day10.27 | is as good an idea as I can give you of how to imagine the elevated | Self of form, as not much different than you are now, but peaceful |
D:Day10.34 | The power you must come to rely upon is the power of your own | Self to create and express the cause and effect that is the power of |
D:Day10.35 | converging. When your reliance on all that exists apart from your | Self—your reliance on science and technology and medicine and |
D:Day11.1 | We are one | Self. How else could we be capable of receiving what we give? How |
D:Day11.2 | Because we are one heart, one mind, one | Self, we can only know our selves through sharing in unity and |
D:Day11.2 | truth of the union of form and spirit, separate selves and the One | Self. |
D:Day11.3 | of the self of form is nothing but the recognition of the One | Self within the Self. |
D:Day11.3 | of form is nothing but the recognition of the One Self within the | Self. |
D:Day11.4 | The One | Self exists within the many in order to know Its Self through sharing |

D:Day11.5 | the means of separate relationships joining in union that the One | Self is capable of being either the observer or the observed. This is |

D:Day11.6 | are the knowable because you are the relationship of All with Its | Self. Separation is as unknowable as the All of Everything. To be |
D:Day11.7 | form arose. It is the expression of oneness in relationship with Its | Self. |
D:Day12.2 | feelings of sight or sound, smell or touch, but feelings of love of | Self. Feelings of love of Self are now what hold open the space of |
D:Day12.2 | smell or touch, but feelings of love of Self. Feelings of love of | Self are now what hold open the space of the Self, allowing the space |
D:Day12.2 | Feelings of love of Self are now what hold open the space of the | Self, allowing the space to be. |
D:Day12.3 | The merging of form with Christ-consciousness is this merging of the | Self with the unconditional love of the One Self. The One Self loves |
D:Day12.3 | is this merging of the Self with the unconditional love of the One | Self. The One Self loves Its Self. There is nothing else to love. The |
D:Day12.3 | of the Self with the unconditional love of the One Self. The One | Self loves Its Self. There is nothing else to love. The One Self is |
D:Day12.3 | with the unconditional love of the One Self. The One Self loves Its | Self. There is nothing else to love. The One Self is the All. |
D:Day12.3 | The One Self loves Its Self. There is nothing else to love. The One | Self is the All. |
D:Day12.4 | The space of the One | Self is everything. Space is neither divided nor separated nor |
D:Day12.5 | is the simplest thing imaginable. All you must do is listen to your | Self. Your Self is now a feeling, conscious space, unhindered by any |
D:Day12.5 | thing imaginable. All you must do is listen to your Self. Your | Self is now a feeling, conscious space, unhindered by any obstacles |
D:Day12.8 | would say that making obstacles invisible is uncaring. The spacious | Self knows no obstacles for it knows no uncaring. It knows only love |
D:Day12.8 | obstacles for it knows no uncaring. It knows only love for the One | Self. It feels the obstacle but does not know it. The feeling that is |
D:Day12.8 | not know it. The feeling that is the sense organ of the spacious | Self then remembers its spaciousness and calls upon it. The obstacle |
D:Day12.8 | solidity of the perceiver is, in this manner, deflected from the One | Self, becoming not an obstacle. The open space of the perceiver who |
D:Day12.9 | of non-human form is easily enfolded in the space of the One | Self and can be moved or passed through. |
D:Day13.1 | Once the One | Self became form and knew Its Self, it knew separate thought. The |
D:Day13.1 | Once the One Self became form and knew Its | Self, it knew separate thought. The separate thoughts of the one |
D:Day13.2 | self you were born into. The one self of form comes to know the One | Self through relationship with other selves experiencing oneness |
D:Day13.4 | The love that is found in the relationships of the one | Self with the many is the love of God. There is no other love. God’s |
D:Day13.6 | Imagine the spacious | Self as an invisible Self, a Self whose form is transparent. Through |
D:Day13.6 | Imagine the spacious Self as an invisible | Self, a Self whose form is transparent. Through this transparency, |
D:Day13.6 | Imagine the spacious Self as an invisible Self, a | Self whose form is transparent. Through this transparency, the |
D:Day13.6 | is transparent. Through this transparency, the reality of the One | Self being also the many, or the all, is apparent. The spaciousness |
D:Day13.6 | form, the awesome majesty of nature, all are visible within the One | Self because of the invisibility of the one boundary-less Self of |
D:Day13.6 | the One Self because of the invisibility of the one boundary-less | Self of form. All of creation is present and apparent in this |
D:Day13.6 | form. All of creation is present and apparent in this boundary-less | Self of form. This Self is everything and everyone. Because it is |
D:Day13.6 | is present and apparent in this boundary-less Self of form. This | Self is everything and everyone. Because it is everything and |
D:Day13.6 | As long as the void of the loveless self exists within the spacious | Self, they exist in harmony. It is only in attempting to eject the |
D:Day13.6 | occurs. Thus holding the loveless self within the spacious | Self of love is the answer to the question of evil and the final |
D:Day13.7 | as the suffering self. A suffering self, held within the spacious | Self, exists in harmony with the spacious Self. Attempts to eject the |
D:Day13.7 | held within the spacious Self, exists in harmony with the spacious | Self. Attempts to eject the self of suffering from the spacious Self |
D:Day13.7 | Self. Attempts to eject the self of suffering from the spacious | Self create disharmony. It is only by this holding within that the |
D:Day13.8 | exists naturally in the state of harmony that is the spacious | Self. This is the state of union. |
D:Day14.1 | All time is included in the spacious | Self. Acceptance is necessary because escape is not possible. |
D:Day14.1 | equality of all that is realized with the acceptance of the spacious | Self, the One Self, and the many, that full acceptance is actually |
D:Day14.1 | that is realized with the acceptance of the spacious Self, the One | Self, and the many, that full acceptance is actually achieved and |
D:Day14.2 | The spacious | Self realizes that the outer world is a projection and most often a |
D:Day14.3 | or forgets because all feelings are accepted as those of the One | Self. |
D:Day14.4 | as well. It is by holding all feelings of others within the spacious | Self, by not forgetting that the one and the many are the same, by |
D:Day14.4 | accepted as one’s own and held within the spaciousness of the One | Self, the whole Self. |
D:Day14.4 | own and held within the spaciousness of the One Self, the whole | Self. |
D:Day14.6 | of the many and the one that exist in wholeness within the spacious | Self. |
D:Day14.7 | must pass through for the self to be the fully invisible or spacious | Self described earlier. What you once stopped and held in a “holding |
D:Day14.8 | The invisible or spacious | Self is the Self through which pass-through naturally occurs because |
D:Day14.8 | The invisible or spacious Self is the | Self through which pass-through naturally occurs because there are no |
D:Day14.9 | and holding “apart” that occurred in separation. What the spacious | Self holds within is the relationship of all to all. Relationship is |
D:Day14.11 | is the creator of invisibility, the creator of the spacious | Self. God has been described as the “all knowing” for God is the |
D:Day14.14 | manifestation, in form, of the healed and whole and thus spacious | Self. |
D:Day15.10 | of oneness and thus the joining of the self with the spacious | Self in oneness and wholeness must precede this step. This power |
D:Day15.10 | self who informs and is informed by the creative force, it is the | Self joined in union with the creative force that informs and is |
D:Day15.10 | In other words, in union there is no distinction between the | Self and the creative force of the universe, the animator and |
D:Day15.11 | While there is division remaining between the self and the spacious | Self, the self and the creative force, you remain in the state of |
D:Day15.15 | To heal is to make whole. To make whole is to become the spacious | Self. To become the spacious Self is to become ready to be informed |
D:Day15.15 | To make whole is to become the spacious Self. To become the spacious | Self is to become ready to be informed and to inform with the spirit |
D:Day15.16 | process. “Group think” does not replace the consciousness of the One | Self with the “one group self.” This is not a time of being judged or |
D:Day15.25 | important to be able to hold the spacious consciousness of the One | Self and also to be able to focus—to not exclude while also making |
D:Day15.26 | As you engage in dialogue as the spacious | Self and are made known, your purpose here will become more clear. |
D:Day15.28 | the self. Now are you ready, through your ability to view your own | Self as well as that which you observe with a neutrality that |
D:Day15.28 | that embraces the unknown as well as the known, to reclaim your | Self and your purpose here. |
D:Day16.4 | they are willfully remembered and accepted back into the spacious | Self. Rejected feelings are those for which you blame yourself. |
D:Day16.6 | As what was ejected or rejected and became “real” is returned to the | Self, the physical manifestation dissolves, because the source, which |
D:Day16.6 | is no longer observable once what was rejected rejoins the spacious | Self. The illness was but is no more. Because it was physical it came |
D:Day16.6 | world—it returns to its non-physical nature within the spacious | Self. Thus it was not escaped but reintegrated into the oneness of |
D:Day16.6 | Thus it was not escaped but reintegrated into the oneness of the | Self. |
D:Day16.8 | of loneliness or despair, anger or grief join with the spacious | Self? This joining occurs only through acceptance. Without |
D:Day16.14 | Consciousness, or the spacious | Self, thus includes feelings of sadness, loneliness, and anger as |
D:Day16.15 | into the paradise of creation. This was the Garden of Eden, the | Self, the All of All. Unwanted feelings that you attempted to expel |
D:Day16.16 | Once these expelled feelings are returned to the spacious | Self and the spacious Self embraces them with love, the spacious Self |
D:Day16.16 | expelled feelings are returned to the spacious Self and the spacious | Self embraces them with love, the spacious Self will be whole, for it |
D:Day16.16 | Self and the spacious Self embraces them with love, the spacious | Self will be whole, for it will embrace everything—as love, which |
D:Day17.3 | than who you are. This is because you realize that being your true | Self is being in union, undivided and inseparable from God, the All |
D:Day18.4 | example lives are evidenced through the individuation of the One | Self among the many. In other words, to choose to be an example life |
D:Day18.4 | to be made known by, and to, the many. It is full acceptance of the | Self in a form that can be distinguished, or individuated from the |
D:Day18.5 | They accept the death of the self and the resurrection of the One | Self, the end of the individual and the individuation of the One Self |
D:Day18.5 | One Self, the end of the individual and the individuation of the One | Self amongst the many. They find renewed pleasure in being who they |
D:Day19.11 | these ways. Being true to the self and the calling of the One | Self is all that matters. Eventually all will follow the way of Mary |
D:Day19.14 | knowing through relationship. This occurs through the one | Self of form. |
D:Day19.15 | relationship allows for the channeling of creation through the one | Self because the one Self is joined in union and relationship. |

D:Day20.7 | be coming to know. The only thing there is to know is the One | Self in its many expressions. You are the known and the unknown. |
D:Day20.9 | this is the only way that the beauty, truth, and wisdom of the One | Self can be made known, then you are the source and the power of |
D:Day22.1 | seeing a teacher as a channel, all of life as a channel, and the | Self as a channel or channeler. |
D:Day24.1 | butterfly. This is the way that you are many Selves as well as one | Self. You are a Self with many forms. The form you occupy contains |
D:Day24.1 | is the way that you are many Selves as well as one Self. You are a | Self with many forms. The form you occupy contains all of your |
D:Day26.3 | Now let’s speak a moment of the | Self as guide. This simply means that you turn to the Self as the |
D:Day26.3 | moment of the Self as guide. This simply means that you turn to the | Self as the source of coming to know of the unknown. While simple, |
D:Day26.4 | the way, creates movement, gives direction. These things too the | Self can do if allowed to do so. The Self will guide you if you will |
D:Day26.4 | direction. These things too the Self can do if allowed to do so. The | Self will guide you if you will allow it to. Your Self will lead you |
D:Day26.4 | to do so. The Self will guide you if you will allow it to. Your | Self will lead you down from the mountain top and through the valleys |
D:Day26.4 | the valleys of level ground. There is no other guide. We are One | Self. |
D:Day26.5 | You can trust in your | Self. Will you? By tending your garden you will develop this trust |
D:Day26.7 | the known, this moment when the unknown becomes the known within the | Self, is the birth of creation. It is the culmination of all that has |
D:Day26.7 | in a single heartbeat, a single instant of knowing. This is the One | Self knowing itself. This is not knowing that comes with a great ah |
D:Day26.8 | Self-guidance is the propulsion, the fuel, for the One | Self to know itself. You are ready to be so known. |
D:Day27.15 | into separation and variability through experience. The elevated | Self of form will be the expression of new life lived within the |
D:Day29.2 | Your “self” will no longer be divided into a spirit | Self and a human self, living under different conditions, at times |
D:Day30.3 | wholeness. In our act of saying it is so, we name or denominate the | Self as what is common to wholeness. Despite unlimited variations |
D:Day30.5 | experience wholeness. Stated another way, the self cannot know the | Self without joining with the Self. The Self must be the knower and |
D:Day30.5 | another way, the self cannot know the Self without joining with the | Self. The Self must be the knower and the known, the experience and |

D:Day31.6 | and knowee. It is the One Self knowing itself as one individuated | Self. |
D:Day31.8 | the knowing, or experiencing, of the One within the individuated | Self. Notice the link here of knowing and experiencing. To know |
D:Day31.8 | the link here of knowing and experiencing. To know experience as the | Self is to know the Self as creator, or in other words, to know the |

D:Day31.8 | from God is to negate the purpose of the experience of the | Self which is God. To negate is to deny what is. The denial of what |
D:Day32.1 | The experience of the | Self is God. It is not from God. It is not of God. It is God. |
D:Day32.10 | False concepts of God, however, are compromising to God and to | Self. |

D:Day35.5 | of God. Your awareness of Self is God. God’s awareness of you is | Self. This awareness exists in reciprocal relationship. |
D:Day36.6 | This is where you begin again. Begin again with the | Self you now know yourself to be. |
D:Day37.17 | had, as its main objective, returning you to true knowing of your | Self. A separate being can only truly know itself. Yet in knowing |

D:Day38.8 | This has been called the tension of opposites, of being one’s own | Self and being one in union and relationship. These opposites, like |
D:Day38.9 | That you possess it. That you hold it and carry it within your own | Self. That you make it yours. As you make me yours and as I make you |
D:Day38.10 | something as your own is simply to claim possession for your own | Self. Now it is time to see me as your own God as well as God of all. |

D:Day40.20 | 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 intrigued with the idea of |
D:Day40.20 | it is being. It doesn’t understand, until joining with the Christ | Self, before becoming one with holy relationship itself, that |
D:Day40.23 | Now, as you recognize, acknowledge, and accept the Christ as the | Self you have been in relationship with, you are returned to |
E.5 | You are returned to your natural | Self, and as you begin to move more fully back into your life, you |
E.5 | life, you will realize where the differences between this natural | Self and your former self lie. You will realize that you know what to |
E.27 | as the world needs to be returned, along with you, to its own | Self. |

C:29.8 | While this goal may at first appear to be one of | selfish intent and individual gain, it is not. A return to unity is a |

T2:8.3 | your dedication to the goal of being who you are may at first seem | selfish, it will soon be revealed to be the most sincere form of |
T3:14.11 | worthy of being called selfishness. Be self “less” rather than | selfish now and allow the self that you would blame to pass away into |
T3:14.11 | in order to usher in a world of peace, would you not think this a | selfish act? |

selflessness (3) |
||
C:P.20 | you can help no others until you have helped yourself. You prefer | selflessness to self because this is your chosen way to abolish ego |
C:P.22 | a new choice. Prolonged interest in self can be as damaging as the | selflessness of those intent on doing good works. Rather than leading |
D:1.9 | tendencies are a real danger in this time. You are not called to | selflessness but to Self ! |

C:9.48 | Those who give in to abuse are merely calling louder for the | selfsame love that all are in search of. Judgment is not due them, |
C:20.30 | to mediocrity or uniformity. You are a unique expression of the | selfsame love that exists in all creation. Thus your expression of |
D:3.19 | were spoken of within this Course as unique expressions of the | selfsame love that exists in all. |

C:7.6 | is the line I will never cross. It is the cry that says, “I will not | sell my soul.” |
selves (26) |

C:P.15 | thus have confused yourself further by accepting that you are two | selves—an ego self represented by the body—and a spirit self that |
C:9.2 | you that they deem under their protection, or the other little | selves you deem under yours. But remember now how like to creation in |
C:9.48 | is not due them, for all here are abusers—starting with their own | selves. |
C:16.21 | and yet they have no power but that which they make from their own | selves. You want power to come only through legitimate channels and |
C:17.2 | consciousness that has never left it. It is the reunion of these two | selves that will bring about the completion of the universe and the |
C:25.17 | not a “worker” Self living separately from a “prayerful” Self. All | Selves are joined in wholeheartedness. The one Self is solely |
C:31.29 | and sisters, however, they must also be able to look for their | Selves in you. If you are constantly reflecting back what you think |
T1:9.16 | heretofore have not embraced. You are pulling forth sides of your | selves that were previously undervalued rather than looking for an |
T3:1.11 | a chosen self and never a whole self as evidenced by the variety of | selves you saw yourself to be. The personal self of the past was a |
T3:1.11 | who you presented yourself to be could be two completely different | selves. Even within the illusion in which you existed there was a |
T3:21.16 | or knowing your brothers and sisters, those whose personal | selves and world view cannot help but be different than your own— |
T3:21.21 | world is quite simply bigger now and the identities of your personal | selves split by far more than history and far more than the oceans |
T3:22.2 | there are already those called to represent not only their true | Selves but this Course to the world. If this had not been the case, |
D:Day11.2 | Because we are one heart, one mind, one Self, we can only know our | selves through sharing in unity and relationship. We could only share |
D:Day11.2 | of illusion to the truth of the union of form and spirit, separate | selves and the One Self. |
D:Day13.1 | one self, allowed for the knowing of the self that created the many | selves. The many selves who have come and gone since the beginning of |
D:Day13.1 | for the knowing of the self that created the many selves. The many | selves who have come and gone since the beginning of time now know |
D:Day13.2 | of form comes to know the One Self through relationship with other | selves experiencing oneness through being selves of form. |
D:Day13.2 | relationship with other selves experiencing oneness through being | selves of form. |
D:Day15.12 | in your company. This creates the joining together of spacious | Selves. It is a joining without boundaries. You become clear pools |
D:Day15.13 | current that you know will be generated by the joining of spacious | Selves? Do you fear your power even though you have been told it |
D:Day15.20 | Imagine the current of the energy, or clear pools of the spacious | selves, coming together. This current washes some stones clean and |
D:Day15.22 | practice among those who are ready to be boundary-less and spacious | selves is appropriate and acceptable. |
D:Day19.17 | Those following the way of Jesus create the openness of the spacious | Selves who allow for the anchors of the new to be cast and thus to |
D:Day24.1 | the cocoon, and the butterfly. This is the way that you are many | Selves as well as one Self. You are a Self with many forms. The form |
D:Day30.3 | also always available. Thus no matter how fractious are the separate | selves, commonality and wholeness always exist and have always |

C:4.22 | would call such a life selfish and wonder how the occupants of this | semi-happy dream have earned the right to turn their backs upon the |
send (8) |
||
C:3.14 | remain within your concept of the brain, for we bypass it now and | send it no information to process, no data for it to compute. The |
C:11.18 | love. When you let go of fear and invite unity to return, you but | send out an invitation to love and say you are welcome here. What is |
C:18.22 | as your home, there is, in a sense, no “you” to which the body can | send its signals. And so the body seems to be in charge and to be |
C:22.12 | them, using your mind, which might be considered another layer, to | send them to various compartments—or, continuing with the onion |
T1:3.11 | come to be, wouldn’t it negate all you have achieved thus far and | send you back to a state of disbelief? Better not to try at all than |
D:Day1.2 | what form of the truth you believe, nor to what god you believe you | send your prayers; although if you do not believe in your Self above |
D:Day1.2 | believe in your Self above a form of truth, and if you continue to | send your prayers to a god who is other than you, you will not cross |
D:Day37.8 | quest for separation! This would be like demanding that the mind | send the body the signals it needs while proclaiming their separation. |
sensations (1) |
||
D:16.19 | The stimulus for these after-images is gone. They are but | sensations that remain, like memories of childhood. This time of |
sense (102) |
||
C:P.14 | made. By choosing to reject yourself you have chosen to try to make | sense of the nightmare rather than to awaken from it. This will never |
C:P.17 | do? Or to believe that you, in union with God, can? What makes more | sense? To choose to try again what others have tried and failed to |
C:P.31 | You seek form when you already have content. Does this make any | sense? |
C:P.38 | This is oneness. The Christ in you teaches only in the | sense of imparting knowledge that you already have and once again |
C:1.4 | them inside your body, conceptualizing them in a form that makes no | sense. |
C:1.9 | pride in your accomplishment, as if by following another’s map the | sense of accomplishment in your arrival would be diminished. This |
C:2.13 | Reverse this thought and see if it makes any more | sense than it did before. In this scenario a benevolent and loving |
C:3.21 | and unhelped, for pain and love kept together in this way makes no | sense, and yet makes the greatest sense of all. These questions |
C:3.21 | kept together in this way makes no sense, and yet makes the greatest | sense of all. These questions merely prove love’s value. What else do |
C:4.14 | with passion and an overflow of feelings that defy all common | sense. To be in love is to be vulnerable, for once common sense has |
C:4.14 | all common sense. To be in love is to be vulnerable, for once common | sense has failed to keep you acting as expected, you might forget to |
C:4.21 | you love around you. Here you share your day’s adventures, making | sense of what you can and leaving out the rest, and here you gain the |
C:5.10 | the rest, for with understanding, these urges can be made to make | sense. With understanding they can begin to bring sanity to an insane |
C:5.16 | your inner world, is where you live the life that makes the most | sense. It is where your values are formed, your decisions are made, |
C:6.15 | success. Put another way, both are saying this: you seek to make | sense of an insane world, to find meaning within meaninglessness, |
C:6.17 | accomplishment is achieved in the only place where it makes any | sense to desire it. With your accomplishment comes the freedom and |
C:7.21 | what your senses tell you, the evidence you have relied upon to make | sense of your world. Those who have developed reliance on ways of |
C:8.17 | in a body. God is here and you belong to God. This is the only | sense in which you can or should accept the notion that you belong |
C:9.17 | misunderstand you and know you not, and neither can you make any | sense of them. |
C:9.19 | you quickly override compassion with practicality. While it makes | sense to you to attempt to dispel a child’s nightmare, you see no way |
C:9.37 | What is missing in you is found in another and together a | sense of wholeness is achieved. |
C:9.39 | This is what will bring you happiness and peace, contentment and a | sense of belonging. This is what will cause you to feel as if your |
C:10.26 | concerned with the game’s success. This laughter too, as well as the | sense of fun that prompted it, will come without the body’s |
C:12.13 | Does it make any | sense at all that this would come to be? Or that once upon a time |
C:13.5 | happiness because it is already complete and has no needs and so no | sense of longing or sadness of any kind. Because it is complete, it |
C:13.7 | know that you are more than your body, and ask yourself if it makes | sense to not do all you can to become aware of the “more” you know |
C:14.5 | Would this make | sense? What creator would create a world in which the highest |
C:14.7 | tried mightily, a creation such as this cannot be made to make any | sense at all? Those who have turned their backs on God and refused to |
C:14.15 | that you consider valuable you want to keep. This makes perfect | sense to you because the foundation of your world is fear. Were the |
C:17.16 | to forgive despite your better judgment. See you not how little | sense this makes, how insincere this even sounds? |
C:18.10 | While this explanation makes perfect | sense, you find it quite unbelievable on the basis of your perception |
C:18.22 | Because you have misperceived the body as your home, there is, in a | sense, no “you” to which the body can send its signals. And so the |
C:19.1 | of glorifying the body arise. To glorify a learning device makes no | sense. And yet in creating the perfect device from which you could |
C:19.1 | alongside them. You could not fully experience separation without a | sense of self as separate, and you could not fully experience |
C:19.14 | If everything you need has been provided, having needs makes no | sense. |
C:19.19 | experience after death. In order to remember unity you must, in a | sense, travel back to it, undoing as you go all you have learned |
C:19.20 | the “going back” that you have tried to do before. While it is, in a | sense, a request to review your life, it is the last such review that |
C:26.7 | you from seeking the meaning you would give it. You feel no inherent | sense of purpose, no grace, no meaning beyond what you would give to |
C:30.8 | present in matter. In matter, being must be attached to form. In the | sense of time described by the word present, there is no infinitude, |
C:31.31 | is. What is not the truth is illusion. Does this not make perfect | sense? |
C:31.32 | It is in this perfect | sense of the perfect sanity of truth that salvation lies. Salvation |
T1:4.24 | Revelation is direct communication with God in the | sense that it is direct communication from a Self you have known not, |
T1:5.13 | have its moments of seeming difficulty, it is learned only in the | sense of practicing the mindfulness that will allow the memory of it |
T1:8.5 | have come after me are not as I was but as I Am. Does this not make | sense, even in your human terms of evolution? You are the resurrected |
T1:9.3 | However, we are talking now, in a certain | sense, of an elevation of form. While this is actually an elevation |
T1:9.15 | of making oneself or another feel guilty, or of experiencing a | sense of diminished self-esteem or worthiness. The first will feel |
T2:1.3 | Treasure in the first | sense is, first and foremost, something that you believe exists and |
T2:1.4 | your internal treasure is now unnecessary. You may well be feeling a | sense of relief in having learned that who you are right now is a |
T2:1.6 | is it death, for even death is not an eternal resting place in the | sense that you have imagined it. Even rest, once truly learned, is |
T2:3.8 | brought life into existence. Christ is your identity in the broadest | sense imaginable. Christ is your identity within the unity that is |
T2:9.7 | for love are literally shared in the same measure by all. The other | sense in which needs are shared is in the aspect of correspondence. |
T2:10.18 | feel as if your chosen path has been denied to you. You often feel a | sense of loss and rarely one of gain. Unless life goes the way you |
T2:11.4 | been the known identity of your existence until now, it will, in a | sense, be forever with you, much as the body that is your form will |
T3:4.6 | another error such as this for it is the one error. Does it not make | sense that the only error possible is that of not being who you are? |
T3:8.7 | but it is chosen not because of the suffering that seems to make no | sense of love. Bitterness is the cause of this inability to make a |
T3:9.1 | This idea is an idea of love. It is an idea that makes perfect | sense and it is its very sense that makes it seem meaningless in a |
T3:9.1 | of love. It is an idea that makes perfect sense and it is its very | sense that makes it seem meaningless in a world gone mad. It is an |
T3:18.3 | allow you to exist as who you are in human form. See what perfect | sense this makes as your human form is an observable form. It is thus |
T3:20.2 | Although there was no | sense to be made of concepts such as more or less within illusion, |
T3:20.2 | more or less are concepts also foreign to the truth, there is | sense to be made from these concepts in regards to the learning of |
T3:20.5 | seeing the errors of the old way in order to realize the perfect | sense of the new. |
T4:10.3 | the lessons that kept you focused on your Self, but you did, in a | sense, study every aspect of your life for the lessons contained |
T4:10.14 | the world, 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 |
T4:12.34 | creation’s power harnessed to the old. Does this not make perfect | sense when you realize that creation, like God, is not “other than” |
D:3.11 | who gives and one who receives. If all are one, such ideas make no | sense. This would seem to make the idea of giving and receiving as |
D:6.20 | for all that you do not understand, all that cannot be made to make | sense, all that seems unfair and beyond your control. |
D:11.11 | need an explanation for everything, and an explanation that makes | sense in terms of the world you have always known. |
D:11.12 | The giving and receiving of these words will never make | sense within the terms of the world you have always known. No |
D:13.4 | This is knowing that will often come in a flash, and is, in a | sense, a humorous metaphor for the idea of a divine “ray” of light |
D:14.4 | this Course concerning testing this invulnerability. In a certain | sense, these cautions are now lessened. While you still are not to |
D:14.12 | has not been fully birthed. Your forms are complete in the physical | sense of sustaining life. Your form was birthed and you have |
D:Day3.10 | In such a case, would it make | sense that we not address this issue, this blatant cause of so much |
D:Day3.40 | you would likely say the entry point was the mind. This is, in a | sense, true, as wholeheartedness is comprised of the mind and heart |
D:Day5.3 | something, or tap a finger at your temple, there is, in a certain | sense, a “place” to which you turn for these experiences. This does |
D:Day7.5 | may still feel unsupported in form. Realize now, that this makes no | sense when our goal is the elevation of form. If for no other reason, |
D:Day7.5 | other reason, begin to accept this support of form because it makes | sense. It is logical. And realize further that love is not opposed to |
D:Day7.21 | of the present that some of you are finding difficult and a false | sense of certainty that some of you may be experiencing. Thus these |
D:Day8.19 | do not like in yourself and others and even to, at times, the false | sense of certainty about your non-acceptance that we have spoken of. |
D:Day8.20 | When you develop a false | sense of certainty, you see not the true Self and the holiness of the |
D:Day9.27 | accept this that has caused your grief and pretensions. In a certain | sense, your ability to express the beauty and truth of who you are |
D:Day12.2 | taken up, by consciousness. It is your feelings that now will be the | sense organs of this spaciousness. Not feelings of sight or sound, |
D:Day12.8 | It feels the obstacle but does not know it. The feeling that is the | sense organ of the spacious Self then remembers its spaciousness and |

C:P.40 | seem as if the butterfly is both butterfly and caterpillar, two | separate things becoming one. You are well aware of the fact that if |

C:1.15 | This is what you have made this world for: to prove your | separate existence in a world apart from your Creator. This world |
C:2.3 | to return to. Thus you believe you are something other than love and | separate from love. You label love a feeling, and one of many. Yet |
C:2.4 | you have given fear that love has been given attributes. Only | separate things have attributes and qualities that seem to complement |
C:2.16 | not still be troubled. The reversal has not occurred because you | separate mind and heart and think you can involve one without |
C:2.16 | your being. Nothing stands alone. All your attempts to keep things | separate are but a re-enactment of the original separation made to |
C:2.17 | You do not stand | separate and alone. At these words your heart rejoices and your mind |
C:3.16 | You who have been unable to | separate mind from body, brain from head, and intelligence from |

C:5.6 | a third thing in terms of being a third object, but it is something | separate, a third something. You realize that a relationship exists |
C:5.14 | is all that has joined with you. Without is all that you would keep | separate. Within you is every relationship you have ever had with |
C:5.22 | Your desire to be | separate is the most insane desire of which you have conceived. Over |
C:5.22 | Over all your longing for union you place this desire to be | separate and alone. Your entire resistance to God is based on this. |
C:5.22 | resistance to God is based on this. You think you have chosen to be | separate from God so that you can make it on your own, and while you |
C:5.23 | concentration on the life of your body is meant to keep your body | separate. “Overcoming” is your catch phrase here as you struggle to |
C:5.29 | These do not have to be two | separate things, but are made so by your choice, the choice to |
C:6.1 | have to forgive all others for being as you are. They too cannot be | separate, no matter how hard they try. Forgive them. Forgive |
C:6.2 | yourself to be, but they do make it impossible for you to be | separate. You can desire what is impossible until the end of your |
C:6.3 | you, stated as simply and directly as is possible. You are neither | separate nor alone and never were and never can be. All your |
C:6.4 | are now, no different than I. We are all the same because we are not | separate. God created the universe as an interrelated whole. That the |
C:6.6 | of the original error—the choice to believe that you are | separate despite the fact that this is not so and cannot ever be. |
C:6.8 | Chaos is only seen in relation to peace. While you see these as | separate things you do not see what the relationship would show you. |
C:6.8 | Thus each choice to deny union reveals its opposite. What is | separate from peace is chaos. What is separate from good is evil. |
C:6.8 | reveals its opposite. What is separate from peace is chaos. What is | separate from good is evil. What is separate from the truth is |
C:6.8 | from peace is chaos. What is separate from good is evil. What is | separate from the truth is insane. Since you cannot be separate, all |
C:6.8 | evil. What is separate from the truth is insane. Since you cannot be | separate, all these factors that oppose your reality exist only in |
C:6.12 | dying of the old. How sad they have not had the opportunity to stand | separate and alone and to become what they would become. What they |
C:6.19 | Think about this now—for how could heaven be a | separate place? A piece of geography distinct from all the rest? How |
C:6.19 | son and dwelling place of God Himself? It is because God is not | separate from anything that you cannot be. It is because God is not |
C:6.19 | separate from anything that you cannot be. It is because God is not | separate from anything that heaven is where you are. It is because |
C:7.3 | into groups and species. Not only is each individual distinct and | separate, but so too are groups of individuals, pieces of land, |
C:7.4 | to serve even less purpose than it does now. Thus that which is most | separate, or that which you have determined separates you the most, |
C:7.5 | and that your protection rests on holding this piece of yourself | separate. Like the love you set aside from this world, this thought |
C:7.9 | withholding has upon yourself and the world that seems to hold you | separate. This is, indeed, the first and most general lesson in |
C:7.9 | general lesson in regard to withholding: The world does not keep you | separate. You keep yourself separate from the world. This is what has |
C:7.9 | withholding: The world does not keep you separate. You keep yourself | separate from the world. This is what has made the world the world it |
C:7.10 | are merely effects of the selfsame cause that keeps truth | separate from illusion. Where truth has come illusion is no more. |
C:7.16 | withhold from the world you withhold from yourself, for you are not | separate from the world. In every situation what you would keep is |
C:7.18 | these words call forth is of a heart cracked open, not of a heart in | separate pieces. Your brain, on the other hand, is separated into |
C:7.20 | in wholeness. We have begun to dislodge your idea that you stand | separate and alone, a being broken off from all the rest. Your |
C:8.3 | of here as being of the highest level, though in truth, no levels | separate union at all. As a learning being, the idea of levels is |
C:8.11 | to be a problem solver, a person who could, as in a court of law, | separate right from wrong, truth from lies, fact from fiction. You do |
C:8.15 | home. The heart we speak of does not abide in it and nor do you. | Separate bodies cannot unite in wholeness. They were made to keep |
C:9.17 | fearful? It matters not at all that all whom you observe seem to be | separate as well. No one really believes another to be as separate as |
C:9.17 | seem to be separate as well. No one really believes another to be as | separate as he is. It always seems as if others have what you lack |
C:9.18 | This need not be, for you are not | separate! The relationships you seek to end your loneliness can do so |
C:9.18 | the darkness. Can you not see that when you chose to make yourself | separate and alone you also made the choice for fear? Fear is nothing |
C:9.26 | and made in its image, so too is this. While making yourself | separate and alone you have also made it necessary to be in |
C:9.49 | because you are joined with all, you have determined to stand | separate and use the rest to support your separate stance. See you |
C:9.49 | have determined to stand separate and use the rest to support your | separate stance. See you the difference in these two positions? In |
C:9.49 | completely free of conflict? Despite your bravest attempts to remain | separate, you must use your brothers and sisters in order to even |
C:10.3 | but identified as the center of yourself—has no thought system | separate from your own and must exist in the reality where you think |
C:10.6 | self would cite all evidence of its failure to be other than | separate and be quick to point out to you the impossibility of being |
C:10.6 | your separation, not realizing that what it has taught you is to be | separate. Be warned that it will constantly try to interfere as long |
C:10.13 | This is not as easily said about the concept of not being | separate, however. The only thing you find really difficult to |
C:11.2 | You think your source and your Creator are two | separate things, and too seldom remember even that you are not your |
C:11.12 | will to create like unto your Father, by choosing to make yourself | separate from Him—something that could never truly occur—you have |
C:11.13 | Your protectiveness of your free will is why we must | separate willingness from your perception of free will. Your free |
C:11.13 | perception of free will. Your free will is the last bastion of your | separate army, the final line of defense, the site where the final |
C:12.25 | susceptible to division, and these word symbols are all that seem to | separate Father, Son, and Holy Spirit from Creation or from each |
C:14.3 | effort and conflict arises simply from your insistence upon being | separate. He who is your enemy you cannot help but be at war with. |
C:14.4 | your creator God provided you with a paradise not of this world, a | separate place to honor your specialness and separation from all else |
C:14.16 | lack that stand with it, the cornerstone of the foundation of your | separate world. You do not realize that you have created a universe |
C:14.19 | you cannot do, but still you try. With chains you would bind this | separate universe to your own, for as long as it maintains its |
C:14.21 | that of loss of love. You who have given everything to be alone and | separate fear most of all that which you have given everything to |
C:14.21 | to attain. For what is loss of love but confirmation of your | separate state? What is loss of love but being left alone? |
C:14.26 | see it in them instead of seeing their glory. Specialness keeps them | separate, and therefore susceptible to loss. How can you lose what is |
C:14.26 | what is one with you? You cannot. You can only lose that which is | separate. And specialness does make separate. |
C:14.26 | You can only lose that which is separate. And specialness does make | separate. |
C:17.2 | rightly here as well as in regard to relationship. Your choice to | separate from God is but a separation from your own Self, and this is |
C:17.17 | toward wholeness is but to understand this: heart and mind are not | separate. A united mind and heart is a whole heart, or |
C:17.17 | You may ask then why this Course has treated them as | separate parts of you. This is simply because this is the way you see |
C:18.6 | from God, or as your home, a dwelling place that keeps you | separate, then you can begin to see it as what it is, a learning |
C:18.16 | is a first step in what will seem now like an attempt to balance two | separate things, but is really an attempt to unite what you have only |
C:18.16 | but is really an attempt to unite what you have only perceived as | separate. If the heart is the center of your Self, where then is the |
C:19.1 | You could not fully experience separation without a sense of self as | separate, and you could not fully experience anything without your |
C:19.1 | you could not fully experience anything without your free will. A | separate self with a free will operating in an external world, as |
C:19.1 | to a situation where the whole range of experiences available to a | separate being would exist. |
C:19.2 | created to provide the desired experience. Thus was fear born, for a | separate self is a fearful self by its nature. How could it not be? |
C:19.13 | “good and evil.” This is thought. Thought occurs in words, and words | separate. It is only in combining mind and heart with a focus on |
C:19.17 | have no concept of this, as all concepts are born from the mind’s | separate thoughts. Yet this same mind could still conceive of a |
C:19.17 | of, and union with, that creator, can bypass the need for the | separate thoughts of the separated one’s thought system. But you must |
C:19.18 | of asking. Now that you are beginning to shed the concept of the | separate self and to believe in the possibility of response, you will |
C:19.24 | for blame or guilt or even for redemption is inconceivable to the | separate mind. But not to the heart. |
C:20.18 | be left out of the embrace? And who from within the embrace could be | separate and alone? |
C:26.22 | linked with its source and one with its source. There was no God | separate from you to have this idea of you. You were birthed in |
C:27.12 | Your heart knows of unity and knows not any desire to be alone and | separate. Your heart understands relationship as its source of being. |
C:27.12 | heart understands relationship as its source of being. You are not | separate from your Source. |
C:29.22 | terms of claiming something for your own: You claim not to own or to | separate what you have from what another has and then to call it |
C:31.2 | Distinctions are made in many religions and philosophies that | separate thought—as dictated by the body—from thought of a higher |
C:31.6 | this brain is also you. Does it work independently from you? Is it | separate? Is it the same? |
C:31.27 | from a lie, the lie of separation that created the illusion of | separate minds and varying degrees of truth. |
T1:2.2 | of A Course of Love. These many things which seemed so distinct and | separate and which ranged from fear, to struggle, to effort, to |
T1:6.4 | or of reaching God through the intercession of prayer as if God were | separate from you and accessible only through a specific means of |
T1:6.5 | To use prayer only as a means of reaching out to a god seen as | separate is to attempt to use what cannot be used. Such ideas of |
T1:10.11 | Let us | separate experiences you might call peak experiences from experiences |
T2:6.5 | become abilities. Thus all that you might wish to accomplish stands | separate from you and beyond you in time. That your mind projects |
T2:6.10 | original creation and are not to be mistaken for heavenly deities | separate from you. The Christ is your Self as you were created and |
T2:7.5 | Those you would view as others are | separate from you. Those you would view as being in relationship with |
T2:7.5 | you. Those you would view as being in relationship with you are not | separate from you. The relationship is the source of your unity. That |
T2:7.19 | place of your heart. From this place you learn to discriminate, to | separate the false from the true, for your ego thoughts cannot long |
T2:11.12 | Separate things must still exist in relationship. This is the key to | |
T2:11.13 | exists rather than as a state that does not exist. If you exist as a | separate being but your being is contingent upon relationship for its |
T2:11.13 | condition under which you are here and able to experience life as a | separate being. That condition is relationship and relationship is |
T2:11.14 | has been given a name, as we have given your relationship with your | separate identity the name of ego. Here, we are asking you to choose |
T2:11.15 | It is from these two | separate ideas of relationship that the concept of doing battle has |
T2:13.1 | unfounded. By now you have seen that yourself does not need to stand | separate and alone in order to be fulfilled under the mantle of |
T3:1.5 | true and the untrue has been repeatedly discussed as the ability to | separate fear from love, further guidelines are needed. |
T3:2.3 | way you have accepted your free will as that which allows you to be | separate from and independent of God. Once this assumption was |
T3:2.3 | a means of creation. That means of creation is separation, becoming | separate (the observer as well as the observed) so as to extend |
T3:2.5 | but the logic of the illusion—in which you believed you chose to | separate from God out of defiance and a desire to be one with God no |
T3:2.11 | cause you much suffering and strife, for the sole reason of being | separate from that to which you long to return? The only alternative |
T3:10.9 | step in being able to forget such thoughts is in recognizing them as | separate and distinct from the thoughts of your right mind or |
T3:12.9 | self forgot that it exists in relationship and believed itself to be | separate and alone. In its fear, it made an ego-self which, because |
T3:17.1 | with the laws of love. There was no need for the Self to be | separate in order for this to be so, but there was a need for the |
T3:17.5 | That mistake was seeing God as “other than” and | separate from the self. While it was important to the desired |
T3:18.3 | relationship, the very relationship that disallowed the making of a | separate self. Observance is linked to cause and effect being one. |
T3:19.1 | have no need to fear that the end of the special relationship will | separate you from your loved ones. You have no need to fear that the |
T3:21.16 | All of these things have contributed to your idea that you are a | separate being and as such incapable of truly understanding or |
T3:21.16 | than your own—those whose thoughts are surely as distinct and | separate as are your own. |
T3:21.21 | split by far more than history and far more than the oceans that | separate east from west. This is why this call to return to your Self |
T3:22.13 | to exist with you in the here and now is not, and place it in a | separate category, a category that only exists in the dualistic world |
T3:22.13 | only exists in the dualistic world of illusion where here and now is | separate from what will be. In the new world, the world where truth |
T3:22.13 | for tension for there is no world of illusion where what is, is | separate from what will be. |
T4:1.2 | It will, however, be conclusive. It will | separate truth from illusion in ways that will make some |
T4:2.8 | judgment. While you continue to believe that a final judgment will | separate the good from the evil, you are carrying judgment. |
T4:2.10 | If you proceed into this new time thinking that this new time will | separate you from others, or cause you, as the chosen, to be |
T4:2.10 | will separate you from others, or cause you, as the chosen, to be | separate, you will not become fully aware of the new time. Full |
T4:2.27 | of which it speaks. The separated state of the mind created its own | separate world. Cause and effect are one. The perceived state of |
T4:2.27 | The perceived state of separation created the perceived state of a | separate world. The real state of union, returned to you through the |
T4:2.30 | recognize unity. You do not any longer see each person and event as | separate, with no relation to the whole. You are beginning to see the |
T4:3.6 | While relationship is what has kept you forever unable to be | separate and alone, relationship is also what has kept you seemingly |
T4:3.6 | with the erroneously inherited idea that it was your nature to be | separate and alone and thus fearful, made relationships fearful as |
T4:3.13 | to life; not realizing that what exists in form does not have to be | separate and alone; not realizing that what lives does not have to |
T4:5.7 | Just as your finger is but one part of your body, without being | separate from your body, or other than your body, you are part of the |
T4:8.1 | stage of understanding wherein you can realize that it was not some | separate “you” or some species without form who at some point in time |
T4:10.10 | you your ability to recognize or identify your Self as other than a | separate being, and led the way to your recognition of the state of |
T4:12.8 | and received in unity. Intermediary steps were needed only for the | separate state. All conditions that were intermediary in nature |
T4:12.33 | 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 reveals |
T4:12.34 | that included the leaving behind of fear and judgment and a | separate will, was necessary to begin creation of the new. Your |
D:1.11 | replacement occurring with every fiber of your being. Imagine the | separate self being enfolded, embraced, and finally consumed—taken |
D:1.14 | I am no longer the personal self who was | separate and alone. I am my Christ Self. I dwell in unity. My |
D:1.24 | are everything and everyone. All that you see is you. You stand not | separate and apart from anything. |
D:1.26 | Learning accepts that there are those | separate from you who know things that you know not. This is not the |
D:3.12 | which now represents the shared consciousness of the Self, is not | separate from the shared consciousness. Thus giving and receiving as |
D:3.14 | union. There is no “time” in which giving and receiving seem to be | separate actions. There is no “time” in which giving and receiving is |

D:15.6 | These are not, however, | separate principles, but a single unifying principle of wholeness: |
D:15.6 | expression. One did not occur before the other, as they are not | separate. There was movement into being and an expression of being. |
D:16.4 | the unified principles of creation are seen to be taking place as | separate steps. This is so because of the condition of time. Once |
D:16.8 | Creation—through the extension of wholeness—into the seemingly | separate identities of form. The way of that extension was the way of |

D:Day4.1 | part of this Course just to convince you that you are not alone and | separate. Although my arguments were not fed by anger, your response |
D:Day4.25 | dismantling of the ego-self, without the dismantling of the self as | separate and alone, you could not learn the truth no matter how much |
D:Day6.12 | You are not | separate now from who you will be when you reach completion! You are |
D:Day7.2 | been needed had you not denied your Self. When you saw yourself as | separate and alone, you could not help but suffer fear, loneliness, |
D:Day9.22 | What an image does is | separate. The holder of an image, precisely because he or she holds |
D:Day9.22 | because he or she holds an image as a goal, holds him or herself | separate. They realize not that they are the same as the one they |
D:Day10.15 | called to union you still hold an image of the state of unity as | separate from yourself. Although I have removed myself from the role |
D:Day10.17 | you are asked to return to wholeness, a state in which you are not | separate from me or from the state of union. |
D:Day11.2 | the world of illusion to the truth of the union of form and spirit, | separate selves and the One Self. |
D:Day11.5 | from oneness and so knows oneness. It is only through the means of | separate relationships joining in union that the One Self is capable |
D:Day11.6 | Separation, of itself, is nothing. What is | separate and joined in relationship is All because it is all that is |
D:Day11.6 | Self. Separation is as unknowable as the All of Everything. To be | separate in truth would be to not exist. To be the All of Everything |
D:Day13.1 | Once the One Self became form and knew Its Self, it knew | separate thought. The separate thoughts of the one self, rather than |
D:Day13.1 | Self became form and knew Its Self, it knew separate thought. The | separate thoughts of the one self, rather than the form of the one |
D:Day14.3 | What is ejected from the self becomes | separate and in the separation willfully forgotten. The Spacious self |
D:Day15.4 | taking what is into your spacious form rather than observing it as | separate from you. |
D:Day16.4 | physical form. The rejected feelings that became physical were made | separate from the self and yet were maintained within the body, thus |
D:Day16.4 | not sickness but rejected feelings. The rejected feelings exist as | separate and forgotten physical manifestations until they are |
D:Day16.10 | love or with fear. If you respond with fear you expel, project, and | separate. If you respond with love you remain whole. You realize that |
D:Day16.10 | holding onto what you have already responded to with fear and made | separate. There is no escape for there is only the embrace. The |
D:Day16.15 | from consciousness, but from your awareness. This created the | separate and the unloved in your perception, and your perception |
D:Day16.15 | perception, and your perception created an unreal reality of the | separate and unloved, often referred to as hell or hell on earth. |
D:Day18.2 | One way is active. One way is receptive. Yet the ways are not | separate any more than Jesus was separate from Mary—or any mother |
D:Day18.2 | is receptive. Yet the ways are not separate any more than Jesus was | separate from Mary—or any mother separate from her child. The ways |
D:Day18.2 | separate any more than Jesus was separate from Mary—or any mother | separate from her child. The ways are rather complementary and |
D:Day18.9 | You have been told that although you believed yourself to be | separate this separation never actually occurred and that you have |
D:Day23.2 | to accompany you, propel you, and be supported by you. You are not | separate from what you have been given, and you do carry what you |
D:Day25.6 | come. It does not require seeking. Be a gardener in such times. | Separate the harvest from the weeds. Do this as much by rote as you |
D:Day27.12 | existed, you just did not experience it. You were, in other words, | separate from it because of the degree of separation that you chose. |
D:Day27.16 | Separation, as well as the variability of the experience of the | separate self, have always been variables that exist within the |
D:Day29.1 | all such concepts have formerly held. When they cease to be held as | separate concepts in your mind, they cease to be separate. Remember |
D:Day29.1 | cease to be held as separate concepts in your mind, they cease to be | separate. Remember that you have already realized the ability to |
D:Day30.3 | is a named entity. To denominate is to name. “In the beginning” the | separate expressions of the whole were named. This naming was an act |
D:Day30.3 | is also always available. Thus no matter how fractious are the | separate selves, commonality and wholeness always exist and have |
D:Day31.2 | “had” contact and interaction with circumstances or events that are | separate from the self. In saying this, you express your realization |
D:Day32.11 | as revelations of who God is, understand that those lives were not | separate from God. |
D:Day32.12 | There is no other choice as long as the self and God are seen as | separate. |
D:Day35.18 | but relating to creation in separation. You have seen yourself as | separate from creation and separate from all others. Thus what you |
D:Day35.18 | in separation. You have seen yourself as separate from creation and | separate from all others. Thus what you have “created” has stood |
D:Day36.2 | As an ego-self, you created an experience for yourself that was | separate from all others. You made choices concerning how you would |
D:Day36.2 | This was the way in which you created your experience of a | separate existence. |
D:Day36.8 | —a new world? Can you not see the difference between creating as a | separate self in response to a “given” set of circumstances in a |
D:Day36.10 | world and to experiences you perceived as being either created by a | separate God or created by your separate self. You experienced the |
D:Day36.10 | as being either created by a separate God or created by your | separate self. You experienced the power of being because you were a |
D:Day36.12 | being, kept making choices between one illusion and another in your | separate reality. A separate reality that cannot exist in truth but |
D:Day36.12 | choices between one illusion and another in your separate reality. A | separate reality that cannot exist in truth but only in illusion. |
D:Day36.13 | that has felt completely real to you and is completely real to the | separate being you have been being. |
D:Day37.2 | If you no longer believe in God as a supreme and | separate being, why should it be difficult to see that God is being? |
D:Day37.3 | separation as it does in union. Separation and the contrast of the | separate define every relationship with either/or rather than |
D:Day37.3 | being and not a divine being, you are a person and not a tree. As a | separate being, you only relate to other separate things. In short, |
D:Day37.3 | person and not a tree. As a separate being, you only relate to other | separate things. In short, who you are being is all predicated, first |
D:Day37.3 | as having to the world around you. Since you see yourself as | separate from it, all that you experience with your being is |
D:Day37.3 | being is separation. All that you represent with your being is a | separate being or a separate self. |
D:Day37.3 | All that you represent with your being is a separate being or a | separate self. |
D:Day37.4 | you belong to a family, all of whom are separately named and have | separate roles, and that you live in a household, in a city, in a |
D:Day37.4 | city, in a state, in a country, in a world, wherein everything has a | separate name and purpose. In a sense, this is the end of the story, |
D:Day37.4 | knowing your union and relationship with your being, but only your | separate relationships with “others,” you saw yourself as a separate |
D:Day37.4 | your separate relationships with “others,” you saw yourself as a | separate being, and incapable of creating anything except, just |
D:Day37.5 | You have thus experienced relationship in a very defined and | separate way—a way that does not represent the truth of who you |
D:Day37.7 | from God as if distinction means separation—as if God is a | separate being. If this were all this idea was, it would not be so |
D:Day37.7 | hold of yourself has been inaccurate. Because you believe you are | separate, you created God as a particular and separate being. |
D:Day37.7 | you believe you are separate, you created God as a particular and | separate being. |
D:Day37.9 | reasons you have been as intent as you have been on your idea of a | separate and particular God is that you want to believe that there is |
D:Day37.10 | difference you have always desired while not requiring you to remain | separate! |
D:Day37.11 | or individuation, is only possible in union and relationship. Two | separate numbers, with no relationship, no interaction, no division |
D:Day37.13 | defined as at birth—a human being—something you have seen as | separate rather than distinct from the divine being who is God. |
D:Day37.14 | You have known that power only in relationship to the | separate reality in which you believe yourself to exist. You have |
D:Day37.14 | You have exercised that power by making choices as and for your | separate self, at times in relationship with loved ones, at times |
D:Day37.16 | this is what you believe yourself to be. You may see yourself as a | separate human being having a separate and distinct relationship with |
D:Day37.16 | to be. You may see yourself as a separate human being having a | separate and distinct relationship with God, by which you mean a |
D:Day37.16 | means. But this is still a relationship in separation—between your | separate self and the separate and now dead self of the relative. |
D:Day37.16 | a relationship in separation—between your separate self and the | separate and now dead self of the relative. This is not only a |
D:Day37.16 | but you do not believe that you know, because you believe you are | separate and so cannot know anything for certain save that for which |
D:Day37.16 | save that for which you have experiential or scientific proof. As a | separate being unable to know, you have been forced, or so you think, |
D:Day37.17 | the self. How could you possibly “know” anything from which you are | separate? You can imagine what it means to “know” another person, to |
D:Day37.17 | what it would be like to know God, but you cannot know, and your | separate being “knows” of this impossibility. This is why this Course |
D:Day37.17 | as its main objective, returning you to true knowing of your Self. A | separate being can only truly know itself. Yet in knowing yourself, |
D:Day37.17 | Yet in knowing yourself, you can come to know that you are not | separate. If you can come to know that you are not separate, you can |
D:Day37.17 | that you are not separate. If you can come to know that you are not | separate, you can return to union and relationship and through union |
D:Day37.26 | the faulty ideas of creation that shaped your “creation” of your | separate world spoken of early in this Course, your quest for |
D:Day37.27 | this as what it really means either. You have seen this as being | separate, or at most as being “a” part of God—as if you are a drop |
D:Day38.13 | and relationship with each other. We are not two beings who are | separate but relating in union. We are each other’s own being. We are |
D:Day39.7 | anyone, Christ is there, bridging the distance that would keep you | separate and holding you in relationship. Christ has provided the |
D:Day39.7 | in relationship. Christ has provided the necessary link between the | separate and each other, between all and God. Yet if the time of |
D:Day39.12 | are individuated, so too am I. We jointly individuate rather than | separate. We can only do this in relationship. We can only have |
D:Day39.18 | only in time and space. In time and space your projections became | separate and other than you. This is what the world of time and space |
D:Day40.6 | been said before, you saw these attributes of being as making you | separate rather than distinct from who I am being and who others are |
D:Day40.8 | striven against the “opposing” force of union in order to become | separate. In seeing the self as separate you have known fear and have |
D:Day40.8 | force of union in order to become separate. In seeing the self as | separate you have known fear and have been forced to reconcile fear |
D:Day40.8 | to relationship and union with me you have realized that you are not | separate and now have striven against the “opposing” force of |
D:Day40.12 | are being, and that you are also being some one? You have been being | separate—a separate being with attributes. Now you are being in |
D:Day40.12 | that you are also being some one? You have been being separate—a | separate being with attributes. Now you are being in union and |
D:Day40.12 | union and relationship—an individuated being with attributes. As a | separate being, your attributes were based on fear. As a being in |
D:Day40.18 | than a mother, daughter, sister, friend. You are an “I” that stands | separate from these relationships. |
D:Day40.19 | with, you would not know that you have an identity apart from the | separate identities of your separate relationships. |
D:Day40.19 | that you have an identity apart from the separate identities of your | separate relationships. |
D:Day40.20 | only makes sense to the separated self, who believes all things are | separate and thus believes that its self, as well as its God, must be |
D:Day40.20 | and thus believes that its self, as well as its God, must be | separate from what it is being. It doesn’t understand, until joining |
D:Day40.22 | As a | separate being, you have been in a relationship with fear. This |
A.22 | to end reliance on the ego-mind and to leave the hell of the | separate self behind. What will be demonstrated and shared is the |
A.28 | and for the welcome realization that differences do not make | separate. |

C:9.17 | How could one | separated off from all the rest not be fearful? It matters not at all |
C:9.24 | truth, the replacement of fear with love, the replacement of your | separated self with your real Self, the Self that rests in unity. It |
C:9.36 | of use that gets in its way. While your heart seeks for union, your | separated self seeks for what it can use to fill the emptiness and |
C:9.36 | its separation. What your heart seeks in love it attains, but your | separated self would keep this attainment from you by turning every |
C:9.45 | improper use, or use and abuse. You would use for the benefit of the | separated self. When magnified, the destructive force of such abuse |
C:9.46 | is not evil, but guided by the guilt and false remembering of the | separated self. As much as you have desired anonymity and autonomy |
C:10.5 | by headaches, back pain, and other seeming maladies. This is the | separated self that you have made calling you back to the body to |
C:10.6 | as having lost something does not mean it no longer exists. Yet your | separated self would cite all evidence of its failure to be other |
C:10.8 | but remember this: your willingness is all that is needed. When your | separated self whispers to you, “Your body is but a fact,” all you |
C:10.9 | closer to God than your brother or sister, are all desires of your | separated self wanting something for itself and all its effort. This |
C:10.11 | less cold. But this attempt to fool yourself is welcomed by your | separated self who knows pretending will not make it so. |
C:10.19 | and this setting is determined with your heart. The thoughts of your | separated self care little for such as this and would call such |
C:10.19 | as food and shelter, but for survival of the thought system of the | separated self. Happiness is not a priority here, but being right is |
C:10.19 | and gay. Being serious about life is a major strategy of the | separated self, which recognizes its own seriousness as necessary to |
C:10.19 | to maintain its separation. Joy is truly the greatest threat to the | separated self, for it comes from union and reinforces union’s appeal |
C:10.20 | You do not realize how quickly the | separated self rushes in to sabotage all movement away from |
C:10.20 | why the choice for practicality needed to be made. Yet if the | separated self can look back and see that it chose being right over |
C:10.21 | a different threshold wherein after experiencing the oblivion of the | separated self through drugs, alcohol, or even constant work or |
C:10.21 | or even constant work or shopping, they refuse to return to the | separated self’s reality. If they cannot leave it, they will block it |
C:10.22 | The | separated self is so ensconced in fear that the known fears of its |
C:10.30 | be feeling as you proceed is the feeling of the tunnel vision of the | separated self giving way to the expanded vision of the unified Self. |
C:11.1 | are few, and they are contained within the Course itself rather than | separated from it. There are but a few reasons for this method. The |
C:11.6 | Willingness must thus be talked about and | separated from what you would have it be. Willingness and faith go |
C:11.6 | faithful to but one thought system. One is the thought system of the | separated self and is based on separation. The other is the thought |
C:11.10 | God a little faith and cherish your free will, the true god of the | separated self. You think at times that this was God’s mistake, the |
C:11.10 | the power to flaunt them before God, is all that makes your little | separated self feel powerful at all. |
C:11.12 | is part, but only part, of what has allowed you to believe in your | separated state. While you could have used your free will to create |
C:14.22 | it fear or call it separation but it is still the same. For in your | separated state you ask that love make you special to someone else, |
C:14.28 | You who do not know how to trade your | separated state for that of union have still done so when you have |
C:14.28 | of innocence and of joy, threatens your specialness, your ego, your | separated self who quickly rushes in with love’s replacement. Nothing |
C:16.7 | Judgment is the function the | separated mind has given itself. This is where all of its energy is |
C:16.13 | evil walks, danger lurks, and nowhere is safety to be found. Each | separated one is out for his or her own self, and if you do not watch |
C:18.9 | would teach you, you needed to believe that you existed in a | separated state. Thus, “forgetting” that you actually reside in unity |
C:18.23 | Determination of pleasure and pain is made with the judgment of the | separated self who not only believes it is the body, but that it is |
C:18.23 | it is at the body’s mercy. Yet the body has no mercy to offer the | separated self. It is only a learning device. But you have not |
C:19.4 | Beneath the world of illusion that you have made to glorify the | separated self lies the world that was created for your learning, and |
C:19.4 | are. A wholehearted choice to abandon all ideas of glorifying the | separated self and to let the world be what it is will begin the |
C:19.4 | never left. Creation’s power then returns to you to help all the | separated ones remember union. |
C:19.6 | Your saving grace is that even a | separated self yearns for union and knowledge of its Creator. Thus |
C:19.10 | The | separated self cannot relearn unity except through union. Here, union |
C:19.13 | you know it, is an aspect of duality. It cannot be otherwise in your | separated state. You must think in terms of “I” and “them,” “death |

C:19.18 | is not the problem. The problem is in who is doing the asking. The | separated self, while capable of asking, is hardly capable of |
C:22.19 | “I saw.” “I felt.” “I thought.” “I did.” The individual, personal, | separated self is at the center of all such stories. One quite |
C:22.23 | to play in a grand design. You will not feel cheated by losing your | separated self. You will feel free. |
C:23.2 | your individuality that you believe will accompany the loss of your | separated self. For, as each of you has found as you have loved |
C:23.4 | relationship. The loved one may be on the other side of the country, | separated by distance, or previous choices, or past hurts, and yet a |
C:23.11 | union of atoms and cells into the form required by the belief in the | separated self. Belief of another kind can foster the creation of |
C:25.10 | If you still believe you are here to acquire some perceived ideal | separated state, then all action will be out of harmony. If, however, |
C:25.12 | the universe. These attitudes confirm a continuing belief in your | separated and vulnerable state. During the time of tenderness, you |
C:30.2 | other than your Self. Thus was service given another route for being | separated from the Self and your function here. When you learn in |
T1:4.8 | this central position developed all of its ideas of glorifying the | separated self as well as of subjugating the separated self. This |
T1:4.8 | ideas of glorifying the separated self as well as of subjugating the | separated self. This subjugation to the ego-mind is what led to the |
T1:6.5 | as these emanate from the state of fear that is the reality of the | separated self. |
T1:8.8 | The heart and mind joined in union accomplished the reunion of the | separated self with God. The resurrection was evidence of this |
T1:8.10 | of creation was made to serve what you would have come to be. The | separated self could not exist in separation and so created a way in |
T1:8.10 | could not exist in separation and so created a way in which other | separated forms could come into existence and live with you in |
T2:7.19 | abide in the holy place of your heart. Then, with truth and illusion | separated, you develop the discipline to express your true Self, as |
T2:8.1 | provide a rich learning ground for you now, they must also now be | separated from all that would continue to make them special. |
T2:8.2 | too the practice of devotion for in this practice is the truth | separated from illusion. |
T2:10.13 | only by listening to one voice, or, in other words, by ending the | separated state which is the state in which the ego exists. The end |
T2:10.13 | state which is the state in which the ego exists. The end of the | separated state or the ego, is the beginning of your ability to hear |
T3:1.1 | an ego-self who you believed yourself to be. Now the ego has been | separated from the personal self so that you may claim your personal |
T3:2.5 | a loss. For you believed that every step in the advancement of your | separated state was a step away from God and your real Self. This |
T3:7.1 | idea and this truth. The ego’s existence derived from your idea of a | separated self, a thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego’s |
T3:18.7 | heart joined in unity observes the truth where once a mind and heart | separated by illusion observed illusion. |
T3:21.18 | identity, an identity that has nothing to do with the thoughts of a | separated mind or the circumstances of the physical body. |
T3:21.22 | are as valuable as are your successes and strengths. What has | separated you will also unite you. |
T3:22.14 | the door of duality, and seals out the world where what is, is | separated from what will be by your effort and the time that it will |
T4:2.22 | always existed. Oneness always existed. God always existed. But you | separated yourself from direct awareness of your relationship with |
T4:2.22 | relationship with unity, with oneness, and with God, just as you | separated yourself from relationship with the wholeness of the |
T4:2.26 | is the only state in which observation of what is can occur. The | separated state was nothing more than the disjoining of heart and |
T4:2.27 | within you and reveal to you the truth of which it speaks. The | separated state of the mind created its own separate world. Cause and |
T4:2.29 | You have lived with the vision of the | separated self for so long that you cannot imagine what shared vision |
T4:3.13 | Man has striven since the beginning of time to be done with the | separated state of a being of form, and at the same time to hang on |
T4:4.14 | between the human and the divine, there was no choice but to end the | separated state in order to return to unity through death. Once the |
T4:12.10 | it with the idea of sharing in unity. Learning is a condition of the | separated self, which is why it is no longer needed. You will not |
T4:12.23 | not possible, because Christ-consciousness is not available to the | separated self. Christ-consciousness is the consciousness of unity |
D:1.3 | of elevated form or the true Self of divine union. You “see” the | separated self still “trying,” still “struggling,” still fumbling |
D:1.17 | learning, for as you have been told, learning was the means of the | separated self’s return to unity. These lessons have been given. They |
D:1.21 | different from all learning you but thought you accomplished as a | separated self. You have achieved an incredible feat by allowing and |
D:2.8 | all that you need to learn, you will retain the consciousness of the | separated self rather than sustaining Christ-consciousness. |
D:2.15 | so, all patterns have had to do with learning because you were, as a | separated self, a being whose only function was learning. The |
D:2.22 | not an attempt to find the answers of the personal self of old, the | separated self who depended on learned wisdom for answers. Looking |

C:9.45 | improper use, or use and abuse. You would use for the benefit of the | separated self. When magnified, the destructive force of such abuse |
C:9.46 | is not evil, but guided by the guilt and false remembering of the | separated self. As much as you have desired anonymity and autonomy |
C:10.5 | by headaches, back pain, and other seeming maladies. This is the | separated self that you have made calling you back to the body to |
C:10.6 | as having lost something does not mean it no longer exists. Yet your | separated self would cite all evidence of its failure to be other |

C:10.9 | closer to God than your brother or sister, are all desires of your | separated self wanting something for itself and all its effort. This |
C:10.11 | less cold. But this attempt to fool yourself is welcomed by your | separated self who knows pretending will not make it so. |
C:10.19 | and this setting is determined with your heart. The thoughts of your | separated self care little for such as this and would call such |
C:10.19 | as food and shelter, but for survival of the thought system of the | separated self. Happiness is not a priority here, but being right is |
C:10.19 | and gay. Being serious about life is a major strategy of the | separated self, which recognizes its own seriousness as necessary to |
C:10.19 | to maintain its separation. Joy is truly the greatest threat to the | separated self, for it comes from union and reinforces union’s appeal |
C:10.20 | You do not realize how quickly the | separated self rushes in to sabotage all movement away from |

C:14.2 | down to, a goal that never can be achieved any more than can your | separation from what you think is unlike you. |

C:14.22 | Loss of love comes from only one source. Call it fear or call it | separation but it is still the same. For in your separated state you |
C:14.23 | Heaven can only be made to seem to fit your goal of | separation, and the same is true of love. You cannot change what love |

C:15.12 | lies one united will for glory that knows neither specialness nor | separation. In this choice lies life eternal. |
C:16.6 | Without judgment there would be no | separation, for you would see no difference between yourself and your |
C:16.17 | that cannot be replaced. Judgment thus reinforces the idea of | separation, making of it something even darker than it started out as |
C:17.2 | in regard to relationship. Your choice to separate from God is but a | separation from your own Self, and this is truly the separation that |
C:17.2 | God is but a separation from your own Self, and this is truly the | separation that needs to be healed to return you to God. |
C:18.1 | When you accept this, even in non-literal terms, as the story of the | separation, you accept separation itself. This story is, rather than |
C:18.1 | in non-literal terms, as the story of the separation, you accept | separation itself. This story is, rather than a story of an actual |
C:18.1 | God and a benevolent universe. This interpretation accepts that | separation can occur. It cannot. Belief in the fall is belief in the |
C:18.2 | here to there, instead of enclosing and encompassing everything. The | separation assumes that you can break the chain. This would be as |
C:18.6 | a learning device given you by a loving creator. Before the idea of | separation, there was no need for learning. But a loving creator |
C:18.8 | and from, for as long as you would choose to learn what the idea of | separation would teach you. Making a new choice, a choice to learn |
C:18.9 | the world that was created from your wish to learn what the idea of | separation would teach you. When you resided in unity, you could not |
C:18.9 | this learning would require. In order to learn what the idea of | separation would teach you, you needed to believe that you existed in |
C:18.11 | learn in unity is shared. Because you are currently learning from | separation, however, each must experience unity individually before |
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 what unity can |
C:18.15 | Obviously, this is up to you. As you chose to create a state of | separation, you must choose to create a state of unity. |
C:18.18 | do not realize what a wholehearted choice in regards to experiencing | separation did. Wholeheartedness is but a full expression of your |
C:18.19 | The transformation from a state of | separation to a state of unity is a miracle indeed, for this |
C:18.19 | requires recognition of a state that you cannot recognize in | separation. While this is a paradox, it is not impossible for the |
C:19.1 | yet in creating the perfect device from which you could experience | separation, all such problems were anticipated and corrective devices |
C:19.1 | devices created alongside them. You could not fully experience | separation without a sense of self as separate, and you could not |
C:19.1 | external world, as well as a spirit self desiring the experience of | separation, would naturally lead to a situation where the whole range |
C:19.2 | The complex set of criteria needed to create a world of | separation was, in the instant of creation, anticipated and provided |
C:19.6 | for its fulfillment, and with this fulfillment lies the end of the | separation. |
C:19.17 | the oneness of God part of the unity of creation. A mind trained by | separation can have no concept of this, as all concepts are born from |
C:20.26 | but a peace that implies a fullness. Wholeness is peaceful. Only | separation creates conflict. |
C:27.11 | accomplished as who you are. All is accomplished in unity. In | separation you merely strive for all that is yours in relationship. |
C:27.13 | is living in the present. How do you learn to move from living in | separation to living in relationship? |
C:28.9 | know what to do with what you know. While you continue to think of a | separation in terms of doing and of knowing, it is obvious this |
C:29.16 | The | separation but accentuated this manner of functioning and made of it |
C:29.16 | it something difficult and challenging, something to be changed. The | separation accentuated this manner of functioning and made of it, as |
C:29.16 | of it, as of the rest of creation, something that it is not. The | separation accentuated this manner of functioning, but it did not |
C:29.17 | nature of relationship is joy. Once you have given up your belief in | separation this will be known to you. |
C:29.19 | As you once chose | separation you can now choose unity. Not knowing that unity was a |
C:29.24 | This is the great divide, the | separation, between the visible and the invisible, the indivisible |
C:31.14 | The ego is that part of yourself that clings to the idea of | separation, and thus cannot grasp the basic truth of your existence: |
C:31.27 | you be of anything less? Only the ego sprang from a lie, the lie of | separation that created the illusion of separate minds and varying |
T1:8.2 | changed, though you have known this not. The great experiment in | separation ended with the resurrection, though you have known this |
T1:8.5 | As I no longer suffer the | separation, you need no longer suffer the separation. Even though the |
T1:8.5 | As I no longer suffer the separation, you need no longer suffer the | separation. Even though the resurrection returned not life to the |
T1:8.10 | you would have come to be. The separated self could not exist in | separation and so created a way in which other separated forms could |
T1:8.10 | other separated forms could come into existence and live with you in | separation. That you recognized union as a prerequisite to creation |
T1:8.13 | called to return to your virgin state, to a state unaltered by the | separation, a state in which what is begotten is begotten through |
T1:9.2 | matters not, as you are in truth, the union of each. The end of | separation that brought about the resurrection brought about this |
T1:9.2 | that brought about the resurrection brought about this union and the | separation of male and female continues to exist only in form. |
T1:10.5 | will continue to create hell as well as heaven and will continue the | separation between the divine and the human. Is heaven worth enough |
T2:1.10 | without form is a harbinger of unity. Form is a product of the | separation. Thought “forms” are the product of the separation. Unity |
T2:1.10 | a product of the separation. Thought “forms” are the product of the | separation. Unity is not a place or a thing but the realm of the one |
T2:2.8 | prevents you from believing in truth is a mind and heart acting in | separation rather than in union. |
T2:4.6 | environment. You are no longer confined to the conditions of | separation, my dear brothers and sisters, and this is what it is time |
T2:9.10 | honest about your needs makes the difference in your connection or | separation within relationship. The extent to which you are willing |
T2:11.2 | in relationship when those around you are still convinced of their | separation and still seeking to glorify it. You will still perceive |
T2:11.7 | does the ego lose its power. The ego was made from the belief in | separation and all that followed from it. Thus your true identity |
T2:11.7 | in the acceptance that you are a being who exists in relationship. | Separation is all that opposes relationship, and the ego is all that |
T2:11.12 | the truth of these statements. For even while you have chosen | separation, this choice did not preclude the existence of |
T2:11.12 | relationship that union still exists. If you had been able to choose | separation without relationship, then the image of yourself the ego |
T2:11.13 | So let us now, for the sake of continued learning, speak of | separation in a new way. Let us speak of separation as a state that |
T2:11.13 | learning, speak of separation in a new way. Let us speak of | separation as a state that exists rather than as a state that does |
T2:13.4 | our Father. As you move into the world with the end of the time of | separation and the beginning of the time of unity taking place around |
T3:2.1 | expressions of the self alone that you would consider the self in | separation. They are rather expressions of the Self in union— |
T3:2.3 | While we have said you chose the | separation, it has not been said that this choice was the choice it |
T3:2.3 | new way. The choice to represent your Self in form was a choice for | separation but not because separation itself was desired as you have |
T3:2.3 | your Self in form was a choice for separation but not because | separation itself was desired as you have assumed. This is the |
T3:2.3 | you saw of deciphering the world around you and your role within it. | Separation, aloneness, independence, individuality—these became the |
T3:2.3 | —as God chose a means of creation. That means of creation is | separation, becoming separate (the observer as well as the observed) |
T3:2.4 | asked to accept a new belief regarding the choice we have called the | separation, a choice you have deemed as sin. |
T3:2.11 | so. How many times have you asked yourself why you would have chosen | separation if there had not been a reason for you to do so? Realize |
T3:7.1 | system then formed beliefs that supported the initial idea of the | separation. Where is there a corresponding belief system that formed |
T3:9.2 | will be there, spreading out like a web, much as the ego’s ideas of | separation once did. Yet, as these ideas are not learned ideas, they |
T3:21.17 | the identity of your personal self is that of a self who exists in | separation, this would seem impossible. Even while your belief system |
T4:1.11 | the choices between truth and illusion, fear and love, unity and | separation, now and later. What you must understand is that all |
T4:1.22 | and of your existence in a state of unity rather than a state of | separation. This yearning called you to the limits of the state of |
T4:2.10 | The idea of | separation is an idea that is not consistent with the idea of unity. |
T4:2.27 | own separate world. Cause and effect are one. The perceived state of | separation created the perceived state of a separate world. The real |
T4:2.28 | I saw them in union and relationship, where they saw themselves in | separation. This ability to see in union and relationship is the |
T4:2.30 | You expect yourself to still see with the eyes of | separation rather than with the shared vision of which I speak. You |
T4:2.32 | It is the opposite of seeing with the eyes and the attitude of | separation. It is seeing with an expectation first and foremost of |
T4:4.15 | natural state, a state of life-everlasting. To abide in a state of | separation is to abide in an unnatural state from which you |
T4:6.6 | —and this is a crucial as long as—you do not give in to ideas of | separation and disunity. |
T4:6.8 | In this time of unity, dedicate all thought to unity. Accept no | separation. Accept all choices. Thus are all chosen in the fullness |
T4:12.10 | your thought patterns so that you eradicate the idea of learning in | separation and replace it with the idea of sharing in unity. Learning |
T4:12.10 | realize unity while you continue to hang on to this condition of the | separation. |
T4:12.29 | and abide there. You do, however, have to refrain from choosing | separation. You do have to refrain from choosing learning and the |
T4:12.33 | and the creation of the design or pattern that reveals our lack of | separation is part of the creation that is before us. It will be |
D:1.20 | than what you do here. This is thinking with the mindset of | separation rather than the mindset of unity. What I say to you here, |
D:7.3 | were also told within this Course that because you were learning in | separation, unity had to be experienced individually before learning |
D:8.10 | true expression of the Self but the self-expression that arises from | separation. Self-expression that arises from separation is still |
D:8.10 | that arises from separation. Self-expression that arises from | separation is still valuable, as it is a sign of yearning toward the |
D:8.12 | The divided self is the small self of | separation that is constantly yearning for union with that from which |
D:10.3 | expression expresses the Self of unity rather than the self of | separation, the Self of elevated form rather than the personal self. |
D:10.5 | means through which the Self of union is known even in the realm of | separation, and thus what draws others from separation to union. |
D:10.5 | even in the realm of separation, and thus what draws others from | separation to union. |
D:13.5 | will be unable to “see” this knowing, to envision it in the world of | separation, to translate it into the language of the separated self. |
D:13.12 | a separated self attempting to communicate union from the state of | separation. This does not work. Join with your brother and sister in |
D:14.7 | and that the God who seemed so distant from you when you abided in | separation can now be heard and seen and felt in your experiences of |
D:Day4.27 | you are—that you are a being who exists in unity rather than in | separation—is thus the first step to the access that you seek. |
D:Day4.46 | It means no turning back, no return to fear or anger, no return to | separation, no return to judgment. It means no longer trying to leave |
D:Day4.51 | for fear is the cause of the state of learning. You may have thought | separation was the cause, but separation into form, had it occurred |
D:Day4.51 | of learning. You may have thought separation was the cause, but | separation into form, had it occurred within the realization of |
D:Day7.8 | exist in acceptance and union. They do not exist in learning and | separation. They exist in love. They do not exist in fear. As with |
D:Day8.27 | every feeling that you do not like will pull you from union toward | separation. All feelings of non-acceptance lead to a feeling of |
D:Day10.2 | the two together so that there is no seam, no boundary, no remaining | separation. |
D:Day11.2 | We could only share in unity and relationship through a seeming | separation from the oneness in which we exist. This is the great |
D:Day11.2 | that unites the world of form and the world of spirit, the world of | separation with the world of union, even while it does not unite the |
D:Day11.5 | true of God 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 |
D:Day11.6 | Separation, of itself, is nothing. What is separate and joined in | |
D:Day11.6 | the knowable because you are the relationship of All with Its Self. | Separation is as unknowable as the All of Everything. To be separate |
D:Day14.3 | What is ejected from the self becomes separate and in the | separation willfully forgotten. The Spacious self no longer ejects or |
D:Day14.9 | as opposed to the stopping and holding “apart” that occurred in | separation. What the spacious Self holds within is the relationship |
D:Day16.6 | the physical manifestation dissolves, because the source, which was | separation, is no more. In other words, illness is no longer |
D:Day16.8 | This joining occurs only through acceptance. Without acceptance, the | separation remains along with the physical manifestation. |
D:Day18.6 | the eternal in form. Your virgin state, the state unaltered by the | separation, has been returned. |
D:Day18.9 | been told that although you believed yourself to be separate this | separation never actually occurred and that you have always been the |
D:Day18.9 | nor heart alone provide for a functioning body, mind and heart in | separation could not truly exist and allow for a functioning state of |
D:Day18.9 | state of life or consciousness. Thus there was only a degree of | separation that was able to occur to allow for a certain type of |
D:Day22.2 | The teacher in the example used was also an intermediary with the | separation being between the known and the unknown. Thus, a channel |
D:Day22.3 | commonly understood spiritual sense, can either promote a sense of | separation or a sense of unity. The sense of separation comes when |
D:Day22.3 | promote a sense of separation or a sense of unity. The sense of | separation comes when the channeler is seen as having something |
D:Day22.7 | by channeling the unknown reality of union into the known reality of | separation. You realize that you know the unknown and you desire to |
D:Day22.7 | where there is no suffering, no death, no pain nor sorrow, no | separation or alienation. You sense that if you could fully express |
D:Day27.11 | you can now see that they are only distinguished by degrees of | separation. So too have you been. |
D:Day27.12 | The degree of your | separation from wholeness can be seen much as the degree of |
D:Day27.12 | of your separation from wholeness can be seen much as the degree of | separation between hot and cold. If you were to perceive of wholeness |
D:Day27.12 | think for a moment, just as an illustration, of your experience of | separation always taking place at a certain number of degrees away |
D:Day27.12 | You were, in other words, separate from it because of the degree of | separation that you chose. Because you never chose union, or |
D:Day27.12 | A constant is an aspect of wholeness. A variable is an aspect of | separation. The constant does not become variable because variability |
D:Day27.13 | you experience who you are is also a constant within the aspect of | separation. Merge the two, however, into one level of experience and |
D:Day27.14 | an experience of variability within wholeness rather than within | separation. It can be done. |
D:Day27.15 | Spirit, your oneness, is the constant. Life is oneness extended into | separation and variability through experience. The elevated Self of |
D:Day27.15 | of wholeness but continuing to experience the variability of | separation. This is what you practice as you gather on the mountain |
D:Day27.16 | Separation, as well as the variability of the experience of the | |
D:Day27.16 | been wholeness or the experience of wholeness, but the experience of | separation. What we are speaking of now is being able to experience |
D:Day28.8 | is new. The reality of being able to experience the variability of | separation from within the state of wholeness is what is new. |
D:Day28.18 | take place within time because only within time is the experience of | separation possible, and experience is where the power of |
D:Day28.18 | beyond time, because once experience is moved out of the realm of | separation and into the realm of union or wholeness, new conditions |
D:Day28.25 | Separation is desired no longer, but experience is. Your will and | |
D:Day29.1 | of duality—where they cease to be real for us. Wholeness and | separation, God and man, life and the individuated self, what you do |
D:Day29.1 | the reality of wholeness rather than from within the reality of | separation. |
D:Day29.2 | in wholeheartedness and ended the conflict induced by their seeming | separation, the spirit and the human self must now do so also. |
D:Day29.5 | of experience—the experience of wholeness and the experience of | separation. While you may have seen it as access to information or |
D:Day29.6 | of the process and part of the experience of merging wholeness and | separation. While you may have seen it as a new means of interaction, |
D:Day29.7 | which it could become the common denominator between wholeness and | separation. Once you experience yourself in wholeness and find |
D:Day31.5 | To have experienced only | separation is to have known only half of any experience, to have seen |
D:Day31.8 | To negate is to deny what is. The denial of what is is the source of | separation. The acceptance of what is is the Source of union and the |
D:Day32.15 | to you the truth of relationship. As has been said before, if | separation had severed relationship, then separation would truly |
D:Day32.15 | has been said before, if separation had severed relationship, then | separation would truly exist. Each entity or being would be singular |
D:Day34.4 | —the wholeness of being in relationship rather than the | separation of being in relationship. |
D:Day35.7 | your humanity with is an idea of oneness come to replace an idea of | separation, an idea of sameness come to replace an idea of |
D:Day35.14 | This has been seen time and time again as you have “created” in | separation. |
D:Day35.16 | union and relationship in which it exists has produced the idea of | separation, while at the same time, humankind’s desire for separation |
D:Day35.16 | idea of separation, while at the same time, humankind’s desire for | separation produced unawareness of union and relationship. Now |
D:Day35.18 | the same. You have been “creating” but relating to creation in | separation. You have seen yourself as separate from creation and |
D:Day35.19 | do justice to the power you have always retained. But creating in | separation is as different from creating in unity as has been your |
D:Day35.20 | you are being, just as you have “created” during the time of your | separation by being who you have thought yourself to be. |
D:Day35.21 | create in unity and relationship much as you “created” during the | separation, your creation in unity and relationship will be free of |
D:Day36.8 | unity—who has realized a new reality? The old reality was that of | separation. The new reality is that of union. It is new only in that |
D:Day37.3 | being and experience, does not differentiate or individuate you in | separation as it does in union. Separation and the contrast of the |
D:Day37.3 | differentiate or individuate you in separation as it does in union. | Separation and the contrast of the separate define every relationship |
D:Day37.3 | as separate from it, all that you experience with your being is | separation. All that you represent with your being is a separate |
D:Day37.4 | the story, or the beginning of a story already written—a story of | separation. You were not alone in this story, and yet you were taught |
D:Day37.4 | alone in this story, and yet you were taught to experience only in | separation from the being you were being. And thus, not knowing your |
D:Day37.5 | of who you are, or what relationship is—a way that represents | separation rather than differentiation or individuation. |
D:Day37.7 | You keep looking for distinction from God as if distinction means | separation—as if God is a separate being. If this were all this |
D:Day37.8 | for differentiation in a way that simply will not work—through | separation! And what’s more, you keep striving for differentiation |
D:Day37.8 | the relationship and unity that you would deny in your quest for | separation! This would be like demanding to be a body and not a mind! |
D:Day37.8 | the relationship and unity that you would deny in your quest for | separation! This would be like demanding that the mind send the body |
D:Day37.8 | the mind send the body the signals it needs while proclaiming their | separation. |
D:Day37.16 | you see yourself in such a way, then you do have a relationship in | separation. It might be somewhat like your relationship with a |
D:Day37.16 | or other experiential means. But this is still a relationship in | separation—between your separate self and the separate and now dead |
D:Day37.16 | now dead self of the relative. This is not only a relationship in | separation but a perceived relationship only—and only because you |
D:Day37.17 | as a being, just as capable of knowing as you are of perceiving. In | separation, however, the only known can be the self. How could you |
D:Day37.18 | a being you feel. But here again, you have felt only as a being in | separation can feel. You know that despite how often someone says |
D:Day37.31 | the divine being in relationship. But because you have so clung to | separation, you have rarely, until recently, glimpsed union. |
D:Day38.9 | Possession and ownership are words that have become faulty ideas in | separation. They mean an entirely different thing in union and |
D:Day39.8 | a totally unnecessary requirement in unity because the boundaries of | separation have fallen. To be individuated being in union and |
D:Day39.11 | is an inescapable truism of your life. Even these relationships of | separation, the types of special and not-so-special relationships you |
D:Day40.6 | with the nature of your being, failed only because you experienced | separation rather than differentiation, and fear rather than love. |
D:Day40.8 | Am came the birth of all I am not and the need to differentiate. In | separation you have striven against the “opposing” force of union in |
D:Day40.8 | not separate and now have striven against the “opposing” force of | separation. With the acceptance of the Christ in you, you are |
D:Day40.8 | and need no longer strive against the “opposing” force of | separation, for you no longer know it. The creative tension that now |
D:Day40.11 | to provide for the individuation process rather than the process of | separation. In being God, I Am. In being love there is no I Am, but |
D:Day40.33 | one with me never feel alone again? Will you let the emptiness of | separation leave you once and for all? |
E.20 | It is all the difference in the world. It is the difference between | separation and differentiation in union and relationship. |

D:6.12 | sets of facts you have defined them to be, but rather a staggering | series of relationships, relationships without end, relationships |
D:17.1 | about one. It is not about replacement. It comes in a never ending | series rather than in singular form. It is not true succession if |

C:10.19 | but being right is quite important to it. It would prefer to be | serious and heavy-hearted rather than light-hearted and gay. Being |

C:9.36 | this attainment from you by turning every situation into a means to | serve its ends. As long as union is seen as a means only to keep |
C:14.2 | of God’s creation, you see the rest of creation as being meant to | serve your ends. And since your end or goal is that of separation and |

C:I.4 | You think that in order to | share you must be able to speak the same language and so you regress |

C:9.7 | eyes, a desire to be known but only through what it would choose to | share. Alongside these desires it is easy to see how a world such as |
C:9.7 | the desire to see was the desire not to see. Alongside the desire to | share was the desire to be hidden. Alongside the desire to live was |
C:10.4 | at the center of your Self, the altar to your Creator, the Self you | share in unity with Christ. Christ is the “part” of God that resides |
C:14.1 | The purpose of the life you | share here with your brothers and your sisters has been to challenge |

C:31.14 | way, all this says is that in order to be your Self, you have to | share your Self. What you keep you lose. This is the principle of |
C:31.15 | you are your future, your glory, your potential. You neither want to | share your most negative nor your most positive thoughts about |
C:31.16 | And so there is just a small portion of yourself you | share, the portion that your ego has deemed safe, acceptable, |
C:31.16 | you no risk. It is the ego that asks: Are you certain that if you | share that feeling, you will still be loved? Are you certain that if |
C:31.18 | sin and a need for forgiveness, think of this simply as a need to | share. This would seem antithetical with what I have already said— |
C:31.18 | what I have already said—that what you keep you lose, and what you | share you gain. You think of confessing as a way of letting go and |

T4:12.9 | arrives when you no longer feel drawn to these modes of sharing, | share anew in ever-wider configurations. |
T4:12.21 | These patterns were created by the one mind and heart that you | share in unity with God. The new patterns of sharing in unity and |
