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: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: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:2.6 are considered dangerous and a middle ground is sought. It is  said that one can love too much and too little but never enough. Love
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:9.22 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:25.1 is a vow to accomplish. To be devoted is to be prayerful. As we  said in the beginning, to pray is to ask for all to be included in
C:31.18 need to share. This would seem antithetical with what I have already  said—that what you keep you lose, and what you share you gain. You
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 Yes, I have  said that contrast is a favored teaching device of the Holy Spirit.
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
T3:4.7 and been seen as the rise and fall of civilizations. But as we have  said before, the only replacement that will work is the replacement
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:Day35.18 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: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

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: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

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 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

T1:4.25 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.

T2:9.7 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

T2:11.13 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

T3:7.6 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

T3:17.8 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

T3:21.15 words, the world you were born into, regardless that it was the  same world as all other human beings were born into, is also

T4:1.17 through observation and direction communication or experience. The  same truth has always existed, but the choice of a means of coming to

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:1.19 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:3.12 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:4.10 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: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: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: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: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

T4:4.14 will be understood as a choice. Because there was no relationship  save that of intermediaries between the human and the divine, there
T4:4.15 you can abide in unity while in human form, you will have no cause,  save your own choice, to leave human form. To abide in unity is to
T4:8.11 cases you see that you cannot stop your child from perilous behavior  save by taking away their freedom through the most extreme of
D:4.26 prison walls. You may even be a prisoner in truth, and wonder how,  save a grand escape, you can proceed. But I tell you truthfully, your

C:19.6 Your  saving grace is that even a separated self yearns for union and

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

T4:2.2 my statements: where once you turned outward in your seeking and  saw within what you perceived without, now you turn inward and
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

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: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: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

T2:11.13 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

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
T4:8.2 I say “God made a choice” I am not saying that you did not. I am  saying that a choice was made within the one mind, the one heart, and
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: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: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.26 relative or a relative who lived and died many years previously. You  see nothing odd or foreign in this. This is the nature of family, as
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 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: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:23.17 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: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.

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
T4:12.3 to see that their questions are the same. They are beginning to  see that they share in means not confined to the physical senses.
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:Day10.38 As you can  see, it is difficult for me, even now, even in this final address to

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: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: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

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.
T2:12.10 knows that although the plant exists fully realized within its  seed, it also needs the relationship of earth and water, light and

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

C:P.34 He came to reverse the way God was thought of, to put an end to  seeing God in human terms of vengeance, punishment, and judgment.
C:P.39 in history. This one- or at best three-dimensional nature of your  seeing is the nature of the problem. If you cannot see yourself
C:2.10 They are not there! This is the miracle. The miracle is true  seeing. Think not that love can look on misery and see love there.
C:2.14 do not see reality for what it is? What benefit is left to you in  seeing incorrectly? What risk in attempting to see anew? What would a

C:3.10 The birth of an idea is thus the result of what has come before, of  seeing something old as new, of improving on a former idea, of taking
C:8.3 being, the idea of levels is helpful to you and will aid you in  seeing that you progress from one step, or one level of learning, to
C:8.10 all that is known to you. You speak openly of these levels of  seeing, recognizing, and knowing, saying often, “On the surface it

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
C:27.5 cycle of seeing the self as important for a period of time and then  seeing the self as unimportant for a period of time. Seeing the self
C:27.5 time and 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

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

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: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:Day33.4 words are at the heart of the new way of seeing yourself—a way of  seeing that will create a new world.

C:P.23 still another. For those intent on seeking there is always more to  seek, but those who find must stop to realize what they have found
C:P.23 must stop to realize what they have found and to realize that they  seek no more.

C:5.8 attach the love you have found to the one in whom you found it and  seek immediately to preserve it. There are millions of museums to

C:7.16 to truth or happiness, nor can they buy you love or the success you  seek. What you withhold from the world you withhold from yourself,
C:8.11 for explanations and information rather than the truth you claim to  seek. You look in judgment rather than in forgiveness. You look from
C:8.12 This faulty perception of union would keep you from the goal you  seek, the goal that is no goal but your only reality, the natural

C:14.2 that one part of creation is better than another part. You thus  seek to fragment creation as you have fragmented your own self. And

C:29.11 expected, necessary, your tendency is to rebel against it and to  seek for ease in getting it done or ways to avoid doing it at all.

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

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:9.36 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: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: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: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:19.4 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:22.23 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: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 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

T1:8.10 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

T3:1.8 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

T3:1.11 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 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 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

T3:2.6 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.

T3:3.1 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 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

T3:8.4 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 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,
T3:11.1 are aware of the personal self alone and believe the personal  self to be who they are. Further, they believe the personal self to

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

T4:12.23 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:1.10 is required any longer as we work instead to elevate the personal  self. This elevation occurs through the acceptance of your true

D:1.17 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: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:11.17 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 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:Day19.12 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:Day28.4 move out, become more independent increases the awareness of self as  self. As the self matures beyond school age, the choices become those
D:Day28.4 more independent increases the awareness of self as self. As the  self matures beyond school age, the choices become those of degrees
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.

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:12.9 of who he is, and while you know him not you cannot know your  Self. This one brother can unite you with all whom you perceive as
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:12.16 than where these symbols can take you, the truth lies within your  Self.

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: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: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: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 There is not a “mindful” Self living separately from a “soulful”  Self. There is not a “worker” Self living separately from a

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:27.15 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: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:31.19 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

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

T1:4.24 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

T1:6.5 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 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 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

T3:1.9 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 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

T3:5.7 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 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 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.
T3:12.1 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 form. I come to you

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:1.9 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:1.17 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: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 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 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: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: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:Day4.50 Anger was discussed rather casually alongside accepting me, your  Self, and abundance. But none of these things are meant to be dwelt
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:Day7.17 a new stage following the time of acceptance in which the elevated  Self of form will be created and come into full manifestation.
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:Day11.4 The One Self exists within the many in order to know Its  Self through sharing in union and relationship.
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:Day14.11 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:Day16.15 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: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:Day19.14 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:Day30.5 the self cannot know the Self without joining with the Self. The  Self must be the knower and the known, the experience and the

D:Day31.8 are one and experiencing together in wholeness. For the individuated  Self to experience separately from God is to negate the purpose of
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: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:Day39.4 do so, you may not be able to share this answer in a way that makes  sense to anyone else. Let this tell you something.
D:Day40.20 as you have searched for a “one, true, God.” This search only makes  sense to the separated self, who believes all things are separate and

C:5.20 Course has already been stated: Dedicate your thought to union. When  senseless thoughts fill your mind, when resentments arise, when worry
C:5.20 “I dedicate all thought to union.” As often as you need to replace  senseless thoughts, think of this and say it to yourself not once but
C:5.20 a day if needed. You do not need to worry about what to replace your  senseless thoughts with, as your heart will intercede by fulfilling
C:12.17 own apart from you. Imagine this occurring and you will see how  senseless this situation would be. Could a trip happen on its own? To

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:P.43 only can obscure it. Thus the teachings you need now are to help you  separate the ego from your Self, to help you learn to hear only one
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 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:3.16 databanks of an over-worked and over-trusted brain, a mind we cannot  separate from where we believe it to be.
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:5.22 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:7.4 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:10.6 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:17.17 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:20.18 be left out of the embrace? And who from within the embrace could be  separate and alone?

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

T2:11.15 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

T3:10.9 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

T3:18.3 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

T3:21.21 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

T4:3.6 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:Day18.9 You have been told that although you believed yourself to be  separate this separation never actually occurred and that you have

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: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: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: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:Day40.19 that you have an identity apart from the separate identities of your  separate relationships.

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

C:10.20 the separated self rushes in to sabotage all movement away from  separation and toward union. Many of you have recognized that you
C:10.23 on the ground as you walk to and fro, you will be learning the only  separation that can be useful to you.
C:11.2 remember even that you are not your own creator. You have made this  separation based on the idea that what created you cannot be one with
C:11.4 All ideas here are but ideas of union come to replace ideas of  separation. This will happen of its own without your understanding as
C:11.6 One is the thought system of the separated self and is based on  separation. The other is the thought system of creation and is based
C:11.8 Your free will you guard most closely, knowing this is what made the  separation possible. You regard it as your one protection from God,
C:11.11 chosen to use it for is the one thing that it cannot provide—your  separation from your Creator. He remains as He is, as you remain as
C:11.18 relationship with love. Love is the unity you seek. In having chosen  separation over unity, you but chose fear over love. When you let go
C:12.1 of this sophisticated term and this is why you have believed in your  separation rather than in your unity with all things, you would be
C:12.4 For you seek to join with what cannot be joined, and you seek  separation from all that could be joined with you and all that would
C:12.10 This is the one disjoining that your choice for  separation brought about, and it is but a separation from your Self.
C:12.10 that your choice for separation brought about, and it is but a  separation from your Self. This is the most difficult point to get
C:12.14 But one was needed to end the  separation, and in this one are all the rest joined. For what alone
C:12.15 point that does not exist in time, God’s son made the choice for  separation. Whether God’s son had one form or many at that time
C:12.15 Spirit are One. If you had indeed learned what you were taught, the  separation would be no more.
C:12.19 As near as words can describe the  separation, this is what occurred: An idea of separation entered the
C:12.19 words can describe the separation, this is what occurred: An idea of  separation entered the mind of God’s son. Like any idea of yours,
C:12.20 From the idea of  separation came the idea of an external aspect of life. Before the
C:12.20 came the idea of an external aspect of life. Before the idea of the  separation, there was no such thing—and there still is no such
C:12.20 is it with the external aspect of life. Without the original idea of  separation, the external aspect of life would not exist. Just as fear
C:12.20 would not exist. Just as fear is not real although it seems to be,  separation is not real although it seems to be.
C:12.21 The Father did not prevent the idea of  separation from taking place, and could not any more than you could
C:12.21 of yours, once born, continues to exist, so too, did this idea of  separation. But just as your ideas do not take on a life of their own
C:12.22 Thus, the son’s participation in the idea of  separation seemed to bring about a completely reshaped life, a
C:12.22 only in the external aspect of life that preceded it. The idea of  separation changed nothing in reality, but became a drama acted out
C:12.23  Separation is painful only to those who believe it can occur in
C:12.23 rejection or a parent’s death mean to those who did not believe in  separation? Do you believe that God believes in separation? He knows
C:12.23 did not believe in separation? Do you believe that God believes in  separation? He knows it not, and because He knows it not, it does not
C:12.25 and you are that extension and as holy as is he. The idea of  separation only seems to have made God’s son susceptible to division,
C:14.2 meant to serve your ends. And since your end or goal is that of  separation and being different from all the rest, this is the goal
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:14.4 being an attainment you can reach only after death fits your goal of  separation? If your belief in heaven were true, your challenge to
C:14.4 not of this world, a separate place to honor your specialness and  separation from all else that He created, then would you be
C:14.10 Your ideas of love, however, fit your goal of  separation as neatly and conveniently as does your idea of heaven.
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:14.26 to make yourself and others special, you will not put an end to the  separation. And you cannot just let go of your own specialness. For
C:15.8 is as much a determiner of your perception as is your concept of  separation. All change seems to question your loyalty to others and
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:18.13 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: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:29.19 As you once chose  separation you can now choose unity. Not knowing that unity was a

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

T1:8.5 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

T2:9.10 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

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

T4:2.27 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: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:Day18.9 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.

T3:5.8 will die. This means not what you have taken it to mean, an endless  series of generations passing. What this means is that in each the
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:29.2 of charity, and continue to see a difference between those who would  serve and those who would be served. Few of you have as yet
C:29.3 me, only need to give to God your devotion and your willingness to  serve instead of use.
C:29.15 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 God. To be served and
