C:P.18 It is the difference between wanting to know God now, and wanting to  wait to know God until you have decided you are worthy or until some

C:25.22 way things are and were. You will want to force change rather than  wait for it to arrive. If you acknowledge your impatience as a sign
C:26.18 from love. And I assure you, there is no need to sit about and  wait for the time of the celebration to come. This is the invitation

T2:4.18 calling even though some of you may feel as if you are in a time of  waiting for you hear no such call. The call is to be who you are and

T2:7.16 seen as being an active one. Your attitude toward trust is one of  waiting, as if an active stance toward trust would be distrustful.
T2:7.20 the function of time as you know it. There is not a period of  waiting or a period of time between giving and receiving. There is

C:6.20 the next as stories often will. It is but part of your awareness of  who you are, an awareness you would deny in favor of thoughts of

C:27.10 than singular objects and bodies, as all that exists, and thus  who you are and who God is? Is it such a huge leap to go from saying
C:27.11 of the relationship that is life. You are already accomplished as  who you are. All is accomplished in unity. In separation you merely
C:27.11 Relationship is unity, and relationship is your natural state. It is  who you are.
C:27.13 Living in relationship is living in love and is living as  who you are. Living in relationship is living in the present. How do

C:31.17 But because you are in a state of unremembering, you must relearn  who you are. You can only relearn who you are by being who you are.

C:31.17 you are by being who you are. You can only be who you are by sharing  who you are.
C:31.18 idea of confessing is an idea of sharing. Rather than thinking of  who you are being all tied up with sin and a need for forgiveness,
C:31.19 But in order to remember your Self, you need a means of learning  who you are. Everything that has ever happened in your life has
C:31.19 in your life has happened as a learning device to help you remember  who you are. Those things about which you feel guilt and shame are
C:31.20  Who you are is love, and all things brought to love are seen in a new
C:31.20 light, a light that keeps what you would learn to help you remember  who you are, and in that remembrance transforms the rest, leaving you
C:31.20 nothing to keep hidden, leaving you with nothing but the truth of  who you are. Thus, what you give through sharing you gain in truth.
C:31.21 and simply become the truth that has always existed about  who you are.
C:31.23 everything that exists, as it lies within you. As you learn that  who you are is love, no deception is possible, and you can only be
C:31.23 who you are is love, no deception is possible, and you can only be  who you are in truth.
C:31.26 Your past has nothing to do with the truth about  who you are, except in the degree to which it has or has not helped
C:31.26 in the degree to which it has or has not helped you to remember  who you are. What you have learned in truth resides in your mind as a

C:32.1 is not one aspect of it that is not designed to help you to remember  who you are. As we have stated repeatedly, the form of your world in
C:32.1 the form of your world in many ways reflects the content of  who you are. It also reflects the content of who you are not. It is
C:32.1 reflects the content of who you are. It also reflects the content of  who you are not. It is in telling the difference between the two that
T1:2.7 entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you could learn the truth of  who you are through these same means was the fallacy that the early
T1:3.1 to replace illusion with the truth so that the truth of  who you are is all that remains.
T1:3.8 what kind of miracle is needed to get you to change your mind about  who you are and thus about the nature of your thoughts.
T1:3.14 choice, this choice to leave fear behind for good and to become  who you are.
T1:3.15  Who you are is a miracle worker. This is not all that you are but is
T1:3.15 a miracle worker. This is not all that you are but is a measure of  who you are. This is not all that you are but this is the quickest
T1:3.15 is not all that you are but this is the quickest means of realizing  who you are. As was said in A Course in Miracles, miracles are
T1:4.1 By asking you to request a miracle, I am honoring  who you are and inviting you into the state of mind that is
T1:4.2 all your thoughts to become the miracles that express the truth of  who you are. This Treatise will put your instruction fully under my
T1:4.16 a miracle is but a request to you to hear Creation’s response to  who you are. What might such a response sound like? Feel like? Look
T1:4.18 A response is not an interpretation. A response is an expression of  who you are rather than of what you believe something else to be.
T1:4.19 of situations and the feelings they have aroused have defined  who you are, think again. Be willing to apply the art of thought
T1:5.9 where the real Self abides. There is nothing else that will free  who you are but freedom from the ego’s thought system. That the ego’s
T1:5.11 and this experience is all that makes you believe you are other than  who you are. Thus the abolishing of the ego-mind, as stated many
T1:5.14 of God with the laws of man. Through mindfulness you will remember  who you are. Through wholeheartedness you will be who are.
T1:7.1 of this world because the world is seen as a world in which  who you are can never be accomplished. You have perceived this
T1:7.1 can never be accomplished. You have perceived this inability to be  who you are in terms of not being able to do as you would desire to
T1:10.9 of profound learning. You will think that you would not be  who you are now without experiences such as this one. You will think
T2:1.4 desire. Despite many exhortations that your purpose here is to be  who you are, you may have determined that exploring your internal
T2:1.4 You may well be feeling a sense of relief in having learned that  who you are right now is a being of perfection, and you may find in
T2:1.4 hoped to have become abilities. You think this willingness to accept  who you are now is what this Course has led you to and evidence of
T2:2.9 You think that what prevents you from being  who you are is far broader than this simple idea of hearing and
T2:2.9 a calling would indicate. You think what prevents you from being  who you are is far broader than a division between mind and heart.
T2:3.1 are living and the life you want lies in your willingness to express  who you are.
T2:4.3 to act within the world as who you think you are rather than as  who you are, you have not integrated these two pieces of learning.
T2:4.4 addresses. This Treatise is attempting to show you how to live as  who you are, how to act within the world as the new Self you have
T2:4.4 of moving on land, so too is the new way of acting out or expressing  who you are quite inconsistent with the way in which you have
T2:4.4 with the way in which you have formerly acted out or expressed  who you are. This is, of course, because you formerly acted out of a
T2:4.12 you thought would bring you fulfillment. This is about recognizing  who you are now. This is not a quick fix that calls you to what might
T2:4.12 are concerned with who you have thought yourself to be, not with  who you are. They do not recognize the difference between thinking
T2:4.13 Being  who you are is what you are called to do. You are here asked to live
T2:4.13 air. You are asked to live a life where there is no division between  who you are and what you do. This place of no division is the place
T2:4.14 now. However, to accept where you are is not the same as accepting  who you are. Accepting where you are, as if it is a static place at
T2:4.14 which you have arrived, is not the goal that has been set. Accepting  who you are includes acceptance of creation. The acceptance of
T2:4.18 in a time of waiting for you hear no such call. The call is to be  who you are and this is happening at lightning speed, a speed that
T2:5.1 present where response is able to be given. All call you “back” to  who you are.
T2:5.7 that assist you in integrating this learning and making it one with  who you are. These lessons will bring who you are into focus within
T2:5.7 and making it one with who you are. These lessons will bring  who you are into focus within your mind through the vehicle of your
T2:6.6 that presumes a future in which you will be someone other than  who you are in the present. Unity exists only in the here and now of
T2:6.9 world. You are changing from who you have thought yourself to be to  who you are.
T2:7.10 has not called you to a static state of sameness, an acceptance of  who you are that does not allow for change. But once you have become
T2:7.10 does not allow for change. But once you have become happier with  who you are, you will, if left un-schooled, turn your attention to
T2:7.11 prevent this is your ability to go out into the world and remain  who you are. This relates to giving and receiving being one in truth
T2:7.13 to do good. This is not about doing good works. This is about being  who you are and seeing the truth rather than the illusion that
T2:7.16 from who you truly are. Real trust requires the discipline of being  who you are in every circumstance and in every relationship. Real
T2:7.18  Who you are cannot be denied in favor of who you “will be.” Needs
T2:7.19 The discipline required to be  who you are is a discipline that requires trust in Self and honesty
T2:7.21 simply an aspect of your identity and accepted as the nature of  who you are in truth.
T2:8.1 are special. Your loyalty must be totally to the truth of  who you are and not continue to be split by special relationships.
T2:8.2 ground on which you now stand. All that prevents you from being  who you are within these relationships must be let go. All that will
T2:8.2 within these relationships must be let go. All that will complement  who you are must be received. Thus the nature of many relationships
T2:8.3 While your dedication to the goal of being  who you are may at first seem selfish, it will soon be revealed to be
T2:8.3 form of relationship. Relationship based on anything other than  who you are is but a mockery of relationship. The calls that come to
T2:8.3 as signs and demands will not only aid you in your realization of  who you are and your ability to live as who you are, but will aid all
T2:8.3 you in your realization of who you are and your ability to live as  who you are, but will aid all others. This is giving and receiving as
T2:8.4 and but take the form of honesty for a brief time as the truth of  who you are is revealed to you and through your relationships to all.
T2:8.6 A Course of Love that the truth does not change. Thus the truth of  who you are has not changed and you are as you were created. Form and
T2:8.6 behavior are, however, subject to change, as are your expressions of  who you are. This distinction must be fully realized here in order
T2:8.6 must be fully realized here in order for you to accept the truth of  who you are and to come to an acceptance of the unchangeable nature
T2:8.6 realm of the already accomplished. This is home. Your expression of  who you are may lead you to many new adventures but never again to
T2:8.6 your true Self. Never again will you be away from home for home is  who you are, a “place” you carry within you, a place that is you.
T2:9.11 you have arises. This is true of knowledge, or what you know, and of  who you are, just as much as it is of special relationships and what
T2:9.19 As these old ways of thinking leave you, you will be left as  who you are in truth.
T2:10.10 The learning you are in need of is the learning that will call  who you are back to your united mind and heart. This is the knowing
T2:10.14 you to move through each day and all the experiences within it as  who you are in truth. It releases you from the feeling of needing to
T2:11.1 is how you were created and how you remain. This is the truth of  who you are and even, in your own terms, a fact of your existence.
T2:11.1 Earlier this was pointed out to you so that you would come to accept  who you are and so that you would extend forgiveness to yourself and
T2:11.1 in forgiving a world that has taught you to want to be other than  who you are. Now our aim is to show you how to integrate the belief
T2:11.2 Even though you no longer want to be other than  who you are, and even though you now have a much clearer
T2:11.2 are, and even though you now have a much clearer understanding of  who you are, you will find living as who you are in the world
T2:11.2 a much clearer understanding of who you are, you will find living as  who you are in the world difficult as long as you perceive of others
T2:11.16 to both identities the world will not change and you will not know  who you are. You may think you know, and you may waste much time in
T2:12.6 the end for the need of miracles. For as you live in the world as  who you are, you become a miracle and the constant expression of the
T2:12.11 the ego would tell you that you are, it still would thwart you being  who you are through its denial of the relationships essential to that
T2:12.13 one with you so that they enable you to live and express and act as  who you are in every moment and in every circumstance. Let these
T2:12.13 brothers and sisters. Let this way of living be the expression of  who you are and all that you now remember. Let this remembrance grow
T2:13.6 is of the ego. Drape your persona in a mantle of peace and joy. Let  who you are shine through the personal self who continues to walk
T3:1.1 personal self again and present to others a true representation of  who you are.
T3:1.4 personal self becomes a representation of the truth it will become  who you are in truth.
T3:1.6 under the ego’s direction, still allowed for bits and pieces of  who you are to be seen, felt and acknowledged.
T3:1.8 will be acknowledged as what it is and as the truth of  who you are, to erroneously have seen your former representation of
T3:1.8 have seen your former representation of illusion as the truth of  who you are is what has led to your perception of the world of
T3:2.1 in relationship. They are not expressions that remain contained to  who you are or who you think yourself to be. They are not expressions
T3:2.6 behind. It is only this one, unaltered Self that is the truth of  who you are and who your brothers and sisters are as well. This is
T3:3.8 to the new life that calls to you. You can only get there by being  who you are in truth.
T3:3.10 The Self that I recognize as You, is not other than  who you are, but who you are. All that was ever other than who you
T3:3.10 The Self that I recognize as You, is not other than who you are, but  who you are. All that was ever other than who you are was the ego.
T3:3.10 than who you are, but who you are. All that was ever other than  who you are was the ego. The ego is gone. The ego was simply your
T3:4.6 it not make sense that the only error possible is that of not being  who you are?
T3:7.2 to the truth. Since there are no beliefs that represent the truth of  who you are and who God is, we speak now of ideas or thoughts. If you
T3:7.4 You are  who you are and remain endlessly who you are, even here within the
T3:7.4 You are who you are and remain endlessly  who you are, even here within the human experience. This is the idea
T3:7.5 within the human experience that made you incapable of representing  who you are in truth was the ego. The only thing within the human
T3:7.5 the ego gone, you are perfectly capable of representing the truth of  who you are and returning to an existence that is meaningful.
T3:7.6 You have formerly been capable of representing  who you are only within illusion for this was the abode in which you
T3:11.16 the thought system of the truth, that having remembered the truth of  who you are, you are called to forget the personal self who would
T3:12.8 choice that was made for the human experience, the choice to express  who you are in the realm of physicality. You were not “better” or
T3:12.8 the result of fear, some the result of love. The choice to express  who you are in physical terms was not a choice made of fear but made
T3:13.1 our new purpose, that of the miracle that will allow you to exist as  who you are in human form, we may proceed unencumbered by any doubt
T3:13.2 the peace of God draw you from the state in which you are aware of  who you are, and so cause you to be aware only of a self of human
T3:14.3 if you refuse to live by what you know—if you refuse to live as  who you are.
T3:14.5 of good news you may have forgotten: You would not be other than  who you are. This is a key idea that will help you immeasurably in
T3:14.5 your old thought system was based, you still would not be other than  who you are. What this means to the learning stage you are at now is
T3:14.5 them to be other than who they are. There is nothing wrong with  who you are!
T3:15.17 While you would not be other than  who you are, who you are is not limited to the concept of human being
T3:15.17 While you would not be other than who you are,  who you are is not limited to the concept of human being nor to the
T3:16.8 the world as The Accomplished and cease struggling to be other than  who you are in truth. This struggling to be other than who you are in
T3:16.8 be other than who you are in truth. This struggling to be other than  who you are in truth is a temptation of the human experience. It will
T3:16.15 of love’s embrace. If you but live by the idea that representing  who you are in truth will create a new heaven on earth, you can lay
T3:17.6 But again let me remind you that the Holy Spirit is not other than  who you are but an aspect of who you are and Who God Is. Let me
T3:17.6 that the Holy Spirit is not other than who you are but an aspect of  who you are and Who God Is. Let me remind you also that names, such
T3:18.3 serve our new purpose of the miracle that will allow you to exist as  who you are in human form. See what perfect sense this makes as your
T3:18.4 Expressing  who you are in physical form will return remembrance to the minds of
T3:19.11 to arise from bodily temptations. Although you will now represent  who you are in physical form in a new way, you can still see that
T3:19.14 moved to believe that they mean anything at all about the nature of  who you are. This is why no more time can be wasted and why so many
T3:20.4 you that the miracle is the most effective way of convincing you of  who you are.
T3:20.11 to be lived by. Not because you desire an outcome, but because it is  who you are and because you realize you can no longer be, live, or
T3:20.11 you realize you can no longer be, live, or think as other than  who you are in truth. This is how thorough your learning must be. It
T3:20.17 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 every
T3:21.12 or talent developed is seen as part of your identity, as part of  who you are.
T3:21.13 You think of these things as part of what make up the totality of  who you are, of your personal self.
T3:21.19 purpose, the purpose of the miracle that will allow you to exist as  who you are in human form. How, you might rightly ask, can you cease
T3:21.24 of the truth. That you each will do this in ways unique to  who you are must be further addressed and seen as it relates to the
T3:22.4 Since your personal self was always meant to represent the truth of  who you are, the seeds of who you are, are planted there, right
T3:22.4 was always meant to represent the truth of who you are, the seeds of  who you are, are planted there, right within the self you have always
T3:22.4 been within you, however, a creative tension between accepting  who you are and becoming who you want to be. This tension will
T4:2.7 accomplished than anyone has been or is or will be. The truth of  who you are is as accomplished as the truth of all of your brothers
T4:2.15 of this Course, you are not other than whom you have always been.  Who you are now was there when you were a child, and there in all the
T4:3.5 effort that has continued the cycle of fear. To have to try to be  who you are and to express who you are is the result of the
T4:3.5 the cycle of fear. To have to try to be who you are and to express  who you are is the result of the displacement of the nature of love
T4:5.9 It is thus probable that you will use your free will in order to be  who you are. But it is not guaranteed! It is your choice and your
T4:5.11 upon the death of your human form. When you die, you do not die to  who you are or who you think you are. You do not die to choice. At
T4:5.11 ways not formerly possible to you in form, to make the choice to be  who you are. You are shown in ways that the body’s eyes were unable
T4:8.14 of expansion and enrichment of your being. If it is only in sharing  who you are through expression of who you are that you come to know
T4:8.14 being. If it is only in sharing who you are through expression of  who you are that you come to know who you are, then this is true of
T4:8.14 who you are through expression of who you are that you come to know  who you are, then this is true of God as well. God could not be the
T4:8.16 only instance in which this is the truth is in regards to learning  who you are.
T4:9.4 and desire. Now is the time to move out of the time of becoming  who you are to the time of being who you are.
T4:9.4 to move out of the time of becoming who you are to the time of being  who you are.
T4:10.11 now ready to do. Learning was what was necessary in order to know  who you are and how to express who you are. No longer learning, or
T4:10.11 what was necessary in order to know who you are and how to express  who you are. No longer learning, or being accomplished, is synonymous
T4:10.11 longer learning, or being accomplished, is synonymous with knowing  who you are and the ability to express who you are in truth.
T4:10.11 is synonymous with knowing who you are and the ability to express  who you are in truth.
T4:10.14 about who you were and who others were, but you cannot learn anymore  who you are or who those are who have joined you in
T4:10.14 are who have joined you in Christ-consciousness, for you have become  who you are and move on from this starting point to creating who you
T4:10.14 become who you are and move on from this starting point to creating  who you are anew in unity and relationship. You can learn from the
T4:12.10 the release of this idea will make in your capacity to express  who you are. As long as you continue to invite learning, you will
T4:12.34 sense when you realize that creation, like God, is not “other than”  who you are? How could creation proceed on to the new without you?
D:1.26 identity cannot be taught but is the condition necessary for being  who you are and the realization that learning is no longer necessary.
D:2.2 and effect are one. You are asked to accept or receive the truth of  who you are and the revelations that will show you how to live as who
D:2.2 of who you are and the revelations that will show you how to live as  who you are within the world—and you are asked to refuse to accept
D:2.2 who you are within the world—and you are asked to refuse to accept  who you are not and the ways of life that allowed you to live within
D:2.4 of this pattern will but interfere with your full acceptance of  who you are in truth.
D:2.6 have now completed, learning that has revealed the true nature of  who you are, your inability to realize your completion and claim your
D:2.19 world without. These systems were attempts to learn the nature of  who you are through external means—the means of learning the nature
D:3.12 receiving are one in truth. A shared consciousness is the truth of  who you are. The elevation of the personal self, however, requires
D:3.13 Helping you to achieve full awareness of  who you are is different than helping you to learn. As was said
D:4.6 I tell you truthfully that until you are living as  who you are and are doing what you love, you are in prison. This
D:4.20 keep you safe. Do not seek someone to tell you anew what to do with  who you are now that you are no longer a prisoner. Do not give keys
D:4.22 living by doing work that brings you no joy and allows you not to be  who you are, then you are called to walk away. If you are tempted by
D:4.22 security, and are called to turn away. If you are lured away from  who you are by a drive to succeed, if you fear doing what you want to
D:4.31 fully accept that your right to your inheritance, your right to be  who you are, and your commitment to the Covenant of the New, are one
D:5.8 The ego but seemed to be who you were for a time. Now that you know  who you are in truth, the ego does not remain, a separate entity with
D:5.11 acceptance of what is given. All was given to you to remind you of  who you are in the time of learning that is now passing away. Thus
D:5.11 return to being as it was intended and will represent the truth of  who you are. This true representation, being of the truth, returns
D:5.19 as what it is. This is the new reality you have desired. To live as  who you are in form. To not wait for death’s release but to find
D:6.22 it is also the form that is now serving to represent the truth of  who you are. How might this change the “laws” of the body, the laws
D:7.6 in other words from the state in which there is no division between  who you are and what you do. “Right” action comes from the state of
D:7.17 self of form. It is a step toward full acceptance and awareness of  who you are now and what this means as you become the elevated Self
D:8.4 time of learning as coming from the content of the wider circle of  who you are to infiltrate the dot of the body, or, conversely, as the
D:9.3 You continue to think that your desire to know  who you are calls you to think about who you are and in that thinking
D:9.3 think that your desire to know who you are calls you to think about  who you are and in that thinking to come up with a definition of who
D:9.3 who you are and in that thinking to come up with a definition of  who you are, a truth of who you are, a certainty about who you are.
D:9.3 thinking to come up with a definition of who you are, a truth of  who you are, a certainty about who you are. You have been led to see
D:9.3 definition of who you are, a truth of who you are, a certainty about  who you are. You have been led to see that this desire has always
D:9.4 But you have thought about this desire to know  who you are in one way or another all of your life without reaching
D:9.6 it remains the truth, can now be presented in a way that speaks to  who you are now rather than who you were when you began A Course of
D:11.6 now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full acceptance of  who you are, and in that state, fully accept that your contribution
D:11.11 and prevents it from going from being an ability to simply being  who you are, is your thoughts—thoughts that need an explanation for
D:11.13 give evidence of who I am because they give evidence that I know  who you are. That these words give evidence that I know who you are
D:11.13 that I know who you are. That these words give evidence that I know  who you are and that they give the same evidence to your brothers and
D:11.13 that I know who they are, will tell you something of the nature of  who you are if you but let this idea dwell within you and take up
D:13.2 those who remain in a separate state except through the sharing of  who you are and who you know others to be. There are two issues of
D:13.11 those who remain in a separate state except through the sharing of  who you are and who you know others to be. All this means is that
D:13.12 is what negates the need for such intermediary functions. By being  who you are, and seeing others as who they truly are, you create the
D:14.12 of birthing new aspects of the self, all without becoming more fully  who you are.
D:16.1 are now in the final stage of the state of becoming. You now know  who you are, and so now you can begin the work, or the relationship
D:16.1 work, or the relationship of this final stage: The stage of becoming  who you are. This is the stage in which movement, being, and
D:16.9 without allowing spirit to move you, without allowing yourself to be  who you are, without allowing for self-expression. You might think
D:16.10 the New”, that “Now is the time to move out of the time of becoming  who you are to the time of being who you are,” it was not said that
D:16.10 to move out of the time of becoming who you are to the time of being  who you are,” it was not said that this time of becoming was
D:16.13 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 becoming is the
D:16.13 the movement, being, and expression of unity, you are being  who you are. At other times, you are becoming who you are.
D:16.13 unity, you are being who you are. At other times, you are becoming  who you are.
D:16.15 form; that times still exist in which you are not wholly present as  who you are.
D:16.16 When you are not wholly present as  who you are, you are experiencing, still, the image or after-image of
D:16.16 you are, you are experiencing, still, the image or after-image of  who you are. This image is like a lingering shadow. It encompasses
D:16.17 as in clay, or a reflection, as in a mirror. It is as removed from  who you are as is the picture of an ancestor or a landscape that
D:16.20 you are not fully here, not whole, not complete. You are at times  who you are, but you also are, at times, but an image of who you have
D:17.14 now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full acceptance of  who you are, and in that state, fully accept that your contribution
D:Day1.3 Without your acceptance of who I am, you will not fully accept  who you are. Without your willingness to achieve this acceptance, you
D:Day2.21 is symbolic of the idea put forth here that until you are aware of  who you are, your life has not literally or symbolically begun.
D:Day4.27 To know the basic truth of  who you are—that you are a being who exists in unity rather than in
D:Day4.27 the access that you seek. As all that exists in truth, the truth of  who you are is means and end as well.
D:Day4.29 longing and desire. For this access is not a tool but a function of  who you are. This access is, like breathing, something that is
D:Day4.53 love, you will have realized there is nothing unacceptable about  who you are except fear.
D:Day5.14 of union that your Self will come to wholeness and you will be fully  who you are and able to express love fully.
D:Day5.17  Who you are now, what your desires are, and where your talents have
D:Day5.17 or one specific type of idealized holy person. Union is being fully  who you are and expressing fully who you are. This is the miracle,
D:Day5.17 holy person. Union is being fully who you are and expressing fully  who you are. This is the miracle, the goal, the accomplishment that
D:Day6.11 there is no distinction between Creator and created. You are being  who you are right now and eliciting the expression that will take you
D:Day6.30 growth of your ability to do whatever you do peacefully and to be  who you are in any situation in which you find yourself. There is no
D:Day6.31 through you as you allow for and accept where you are right now and  who you are right now.
D:Day8.2 normal, ordinary, life into extraordinary life. Loving exactly  who you are and where you are in every moment is what will cause the
D:Day8.8 acceptance—not acceptance of the way things are, but acceptance of  who you are in the present. Not through acceptance of the way you
D:Day8.10 specific action but it will lead to action that is consistent with  who you are when you are fully comfortable in your acceptance of who
D:Day8.10 who you are when you are fully comfortable in your acceptance of  who you are. Understand, however, that this eventual outcome will
D:Day8.13 your righteous contempt for the actions of others, but to accept  who you are within the relationship of that present moment.
D:Day8.14 will find yourself adhering to a standard rather than acting from  who you are. You will, in fact, have returned to judgment because you
D:Day8.17 you are—for only by doing so will you come to full acceptance of  who you are and be able to allow the Self of unity to merge with the
D:Day8.22 forth that feeling. It is in the expression of that feeling that  who you are is revealed, not in the feeling itself. The feeling is
D:Day8.28 you to expression of your true Self! To true representation of  who you are—who you are now!
D:Day8.28 of your true Self! To true representation of who you are—  who you are now!
D:Day9.15 called the future. As with all messages of the ego, it but says that  who you are is not good enough.
D:Day9.25 the givens that combined create the wholeness and the holiness of  who you are. A creator who desired only sameness would not have
D:Day9.25 form that is perfect for your expression of the beauty and truth of  who you are. You cannot express the beauty and truth of who another
D:Day9.25 truth of a future self. You can only express the beauty and truth of  who you are now, in the present. And you do. You just have not
D:Day9.27 has been able to keep you from expressing the beauty and truth of  who you are. You came into the world of form incapable of not
D:Day9.27 world of form incapable of not expressing the beauty and truth of  who you are. That you are is an expression of beauty and truth. You
D:Day9.27 expression of beauty and truth. You express the beauty and truth of  who you are by being alive. It has only been your inability to accept
D:Day9.27 In a certain sense, your ability to express the beauty and truth of  who you are has been taught out of you by learning practices that
D:Day9.30 and the will to fan the flames of your desire to be, and to express,  who you are in truth.
D:Day16.7 feelings, rather than your thoughts about your feelings, reflect  who you are, and that by acting on them, you will act in accord with
D:Day16.7 who you are, and that by acting on them, you will act in accord with  who you are and thus in accord with the universe. The reintegration
D:Day16.10 anger, and all else that you feel because these feelings are part of  who you are in the present moment. When you remain in the present
D:Day17.3 the time, once again, for you to claim your identity. Although being  who you are has been discussed in many ways, many of you still await
D:Day17.3 discussed in many ways, many of you still await being different than  who you are. This is because you realize that being your true Self is
D:Day19.1 a way of living as the ultimate accomplishment. You see living as  who you are in the world as the accomplishment that is needed from
D:Day19.4 Being content is being fulfilled by the way in which you express  who you are—by the way you express your content—your wholeness.
D:Day19.5 The ultimate accomplishment is living as  who you are within the world. But in what kind of world? This is the
D:Day19.6 lies in the simple statement of as within, so without. By living as  who you are in the world, you create change in the world. You create
D:Day23.1 Forget not that  who you are is what you are here to make known and thus you must be a
D:Day27.8 lose its dualistic seeming nature and become as intrinsic to  who you are as is breathing. In this same way, the dualistic seeming
D:Day27.13 That you are  who you are and that you have always been the accomplished is a
D:Day27.13 and an aspect of wholeness. The variability of how you experience  who you are is also a constant within the aspect of separation. Merge
D:Day29.1 God and man, life and the individuated self, what you do and  who you are, the eternal and the temporal, joy and sadness, sickness
D:Day29.4 reality in which you exist. Another way of saying this is bringing  who you are into wholeness, which can be interpreted both as bringing
D:Day29.7 reality. It is linked with your notion of who and where you are, for  who you are and where you find yourself, and experience yourself, are
D:Day33.5 that make up your world appeal. It is in your response that  who you are being is revealed.
D:Day33.7 You might think of being as what you are, and responding as  who you are. You have been told that these words are being given to
D:Day33.10 way that you can do this is by always knowing and never forgetting  who you are. You are being in relationship: The creator of events as
D:Day33.10 this is so. It is when you know that this is so, and you also know  who you are, that you know with certainty that the only response is
D:Day33.14 power of being. The power to individuate the Self. The power to be  who you are. This is power and the source of power. This is the force
D:Day35.20 to create in unity and relationship, you will do so by simply being  who you are being, just as you have “created” during the time of your
D:Day36.19 together is coming to an end and your acceptance of the truth of  who you are and who you can be is essential to the accomplishment of
D:Day36.19 stands in the way of your creatorship is your final acceptance of  who you are in unity and relationship.
D:Day37.2 that God is being. Yet the fact that you are being does not define  who you are any better than the earlier example of your experiences
D:Day37.2 any better than the earlier example of your experiences would define  who you are, because being, by itself, does not differentiate or
D:Day37.3 separate being, you only relate to other separate things. In short,  who you are being is all predicated, first and foremost, by the
D:Day37.5 and separate way—a way that does not represent the truth of  who you are, or what relationship is—a way that represents
D:Day37.18 can find great joy in feeling “as if” someone knows how you feel and  who you are. But you have felt doomed to never being known and to
D:Day38.13 Who I Am to you, and  who you are to me, is all that matters. Our relationship can only be
D:Day39.3 extension of I Am into form. Through your extension, you can become  who you are to me, instead of who I have been to you.
D:Day39.30 celebrity, intellect? Then these things have become the content of  who you are. Science, money, fame, celebrity, intellect or any other
D:Day39.34 will you carry with you now that you know that I Am is who I am and  who you are? What memory has this Course and this Dialogue returned
D:Day39.36 Who Am I to you? Only  who you are to yourself. Now it is time for you to be not who you
D:Day39.36 Now it is time for you to be not who you have been to yourself, but  who you are, and have been, to me.
D:Day39.37 Here is where we must return to paradox, to knowing  who you are and who I Am and to constantly discovering who you are
D:Day39.37 to knowing who you are and who I Am and to constantly discovering  who you are and who I Am, because who you are and who I Am are the
D:Day39.37 I Am and to constantly discovering who you are and who I Am, because  who you are and who I Am are the same being in the constant creative
D:Day39.38 This is a time of knowing  who you are and who I Am while at the same time, holding, or
D:Day40.1 union, you complete a circuit, a circle of wholeness, and I become  who you are to me. Thus giving and receiving are one. Cause and
D:Day40.2 All that being is was extended into  who you are.
D:Day40.6 of your being, what you might call your personality or even  who you are. As has been said before, you saw these attributes of
D:Day40.8 You extend your being into form. That form then becomes. It becomes  who you are. Both beings and thus both extensions are the same. The
D:Day40.15 to you am I God. Only in your relationship to me are you  who you are in truth.
D:Day40.16 or son, husband or wife, sister or brother, friend or foe? You are  who you are in relationship. I Am who I Am in relationship as well.
D:Day40.17 You would perhaps beg to differ now, and ask of me, “Are you not  who you are ‘separately’ from relationship?” Separately from
D:Day40.18 beg to differ here, and say that regardless of what I say, you are  who you are outside of your relationships. You are not just the
D:Day40.25 now, as you contemplate leaving behind who you have been for being  who you are to me?
D:Day40.26 yesterday’s discussion of who I Am to you and today’s discussion of  who you are to me, that one has not been discussed without the other.
D:Day40.27 I Am everything being love? This is not the same as saying you are  who you are in relationship to your mother, and your mother who she
D:Day40.27 who she is in relationship to you. This is saying that you are  who you are in relationship to all that is love. This is saying that
D:Day40.27 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 up to you.
D:Day40.28 knowing being to all that you are in relationship with, you extend  who you are. This is saying that through the application of your
D:Day40.29  Who you are being in union and relationship with me, is me, as well
D:Day40.30 gift of all. It is the end of becoming and the beginning of being  who you are. With this gift comes the ability to be known and to
D:Day40.34 to level ground—to the place of completion and demonstration of  who you are being?
E.2 gone, never to be asked again. Why? Because now that you are being  who you are in unity and relationship, these questions will make no
E.9 desire arises, into all-being. Mainly you will enjoy being—being  who you are. You will be happy. You will be content. And you will
E.14 You will no longer need to “think” about  who you are and what you will do, and your willingness to give up
E.20 Do not be afraid now to be  who you are. Do not think you need to be something different,
E.22 If you will but let it come, you will see that you are being  who you are being for a reason, for a purpose, a purpose that will be
E.22 will be so clear to you that you will joyously accept yourself for  who you are being. So be it.
A.14 You begin to trust and as you begin to trust you begin to extend  who you are. True giving and receiving as one begins to take place.
A.40 exchange between “two or more gathered together” reveals. It reveals  Who You Are.
A.42 in The Dialogues. You have entered the final stages of revelation of  Who You Are. When Who You Are is fully revealed you will realize that
A.42 You have entered the final stages of revelation of Who You Are. When  Who You Are is fully revealed you will realize that it is time to
A.42 you will realize that it is time to leave the classroom and live as  Who You Are in the world. You will realize that your participation in
A.42 the world. You will realize that your participation in the world as  Who You Are is part of an on-going dialogue, and that it is an
A.43 now will be your relationship to this work that has returned you to  Who You Are? Your relationship to this work continues as you live and
A.43 Your relationship to this work continues as you live and express  Who You Are being in the world. For some of you this may mean
A.44 For each, being  Who You Are will be an expression of unity and oneness that only you
A.49 given and the gift you bring the world: your own voice, the voice of  Who You Are. This is not a voice of separation or of the separated

whole (96)

C:P.5 The world as a state of being, as a  whole, has entered a time, brought on largely by A Course in
C:6.4 we are not separate. God created the universe as an interrelated  whole. That the universe is an interrelated whole is no longer
C:6.4 as an interrelated whole. That the universe is an interrelated  whole is no longer disputed even by science. What you have made to
C:6.18 brow to change the world: it takes only love. A forgiven world is  whole, and in its wholeness one with you. It is here, in wholeness,
C:7.18 of your heart. Your heart already sees in a manner much more  whole than the perception of your split mind. Even your language and
C:9.38 accomplished. You believe that by putting various parts together a  whole can be achieved. You speak of balance, and try to find
C:9.45 you to use the things that you have made in ways that benefit the  whole, and this is the distinction between proper and improper use,
C:9.49 for. Instead of recognizing your union, a state in which you are  whole and complete because you are joined with all, you have
C:10.2 obliteration of one thing to make another—joining makes each one  whole, and in this wholeness one with all. This union has never
C:10.27 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 about its day,
C:17.14 the space in the universe that is yours and has become part of the  whole along with you. All that has proceeded from fear is nothing,
C:17.17 this: heart and mind are not separate. A united mind and heart is a  whole heart, or wholeheartedness. You may ask then why this Course
C:18.3 part of what has established and keeps a universal order, part of a  whole that would be a completely different whole without your
C:18.3 order, part of a whole that would be a completely different  whole without your presence, just as the universe would be a
C:18.4 and alone with no relationship, no connection, no unity with the  whole. This you have not done. You have not fallen from unity. You
C:18.14 moment to moment. What you desired you experienced fully with your  whole being, making it one with you. That you keep yourself from
C:18.17 rather than one. In addition to dedicating thought to unity with the  whole, you must dedicate yourself to unifying thought itself.
C:19.1 of separation, would naturally lead to a situation where the  whole range of experiences available to a separate being would exist.

C:7.17 that is specific and not generalizable. All relationship exists in  wholeness. The small examples used earlier were meant to help you
C:7.18 your image of your brain. Let this image go and concentrate on the  wholeness of your heart, no matter how you view its current

D:13.5 particulars. While you are perfectly capable of coming to know in  wholeness, a way that is actually natural to you, it will seem so
D:14.10 is not. Learning took place in parts in an effort to lead to  wholeness. Discovery comes to you in wholeness. So these steps are
D:14.10 parts in an effort to lead to wholeness. Discovery comes to you in  wholeness. So these steps are not about parts or levels but about the
D:14.17 This  wholeness of being is what lies beyond body and mind, form and time.
D:15.6 however, separate principles, but a single unifying principle of  wholeness: Movement, being, expression. One did not occur before the
D:15.6 which is why these principles of unity must be seen as the undivided  wholeness of the principle of unity before creation of the new can
D:16.1 movement, being, and expression come together into the recreation of  wholeness that will be expressed in the elevated Self of form.
D:16.2 of creation moves inevitably to join with the accomplishment and  wholeness that already exist in unity. Creation occurs in each of us,
D:16.2 is the extension or expression of that identity into the creation of  wholeness in form.
D:16.3 is to be empty. Empty is the opposite of full, the opposite of  wholeness. It is the perceived condition of lack. It is the belief
D:16.4 You can be an expression of being and yet not express the  wholeness of being. This is a description of the state of becoming.
D:16.6 than it is an attribute. This is because love remains in eternal  wholeness. Love cannot be learned, and so has stood apart from the
D:16.7 All of All because it is whole and rests in eternal completion and  wholeness. Love is the state of unity, the only relationship through
D:16.8 expression of God, of Love, of Creation—through the extension of  wholeness—into the seemingly separate identities of form. The way
D:16.10 happening to you. Creation’s purpose, creation’s cause and effect is  wholeness and the continuing expression of wholeness. While it was
D:16.10 cause and effect is wholeness and the continuing expression of  wholeness. While it was said in “A Treatise on the New”, that “Now is

D:Day1.25 joining together of all of the parts of the creation story into the  wholeness of the story’s end. As a story is seen to move from one
D:Day1.29 end of the story that is to be fulfilled, brought to completion and  wholeness in you and in me, so that together we bring about the
D:Day4.54 the Self of unity. You are about to achieve your first glimpse of  wholeness, of oneness with God. To know the truth of your inheritance.
D:Day5.14 be in your unique expression of union that your Self will come to  wholeness and you will be fully who you are and able to express love
D:Day9.25 or inspired ideas, but all the givens that combined create the  wholeness and the holiness of who you are. A creator who desired only
D:Day10.17 unity. This was purposeful. Now, however, you are asked to return to  wholeness, a state in which you are not separate from me or from the
D:Day14.1 as the sick, the chaos and the peace. Thus we heal now by calling on  wholeness, accepting the healed self’s ability to be chosen while not
D:Day14.6 power. Your power is the power of the many and the one that exist in  wholeness within the spacious Self.
D:Day15.10 thus the joining of the self with the spacious Self in oneness and  wholeness must precede this step. This power cannot be misused
D:Day15.21 you through the exchange of dialogue. While you are asked to promote  wholeness and the sustainability of Christ-consciousness with others
D:Day16.6 been rejected or ejected. All that has been expelled is part of the  wholeness of the self. As what was ejected or rejected and became
D:Day16.9 fully aware of the present. The present is the time of no time,  wholeness, where all that is real and all that was ever real exists.
D:Day17.8 in the sense that all the given components are necessary for  wholeness. Representation of the power of Christ-consciousness in
D:Day18.2 ways are rather complementary and symbiotic. Together they return  wholeness and will bring about the completion of the time of Christ.
D:Day19.4 you express who you are—by the way you express your content—your  wholeness. Those who use their gifts to create the truth they see are
D:Day24.2 What is unaltered remains unaltered despite its many manifestations.  Wholeness exists in every cell, in each of every smallest particle of
D:Day24.2 in every cell, in each of every smallest particle of existence.  Wholeness exists in you. Nothing can take wholeness from you. It is
D:Day24.2 particle of existence. Wholeness exists in you. Nothing can take  wholeness from you. It is as natural to you as it is to all of
D:Day24.4 you allow your potential to be released, your true nature in all its  wholeness will be revealed.
D:Day24.5 in other words, a necessity for each step in the accomplishment of  wholeness, even while wholeness has always existed as potential. Do
D:Day24.5 for each step in the accomplishment of wholeness, even while  wholeness has always existed as potential. Do not forget, however,
D:Day24.5 has always existed as potential. Do not forget, however, that  wholeness has always existed, that potential is that which exists, or
D:Day27.12 The degree of your separation from  wholeness can be seen much as the degree of separation between hot
D:Day27.12 of separation between hot and cold. If you were to perceive of  wholeness as an ideal temperature, you might think for a moment, just
D:Day27.12 of separation that you chose. Because you never chose union, or  wholeness, you did not experience lack of body temperature or the
D:Day27.12 kind of temperature is thus a constant. A constant is an aspect of  wholeness. A variable is an aspect of separation. The constant does
D:Day27.13 you have always been the accomplished is a constant and an aspect of  wholeness. The variability of how you experience who you are is also
D:Day27.14 practice in order to move toward an experience of variability within  wholeness rather than within separation. It can be done.
D:Day27.15 form will be the expression of new life lived within the constant of  wholeness but continuing to experience the variability of separation.
D:Day27.16 self, have always been variables that exist within the constant of  wholeness. What you have experienced, however, has not been wholeness
D:Day27.16 of wholeness. What you have experienced, however, has not been  wholeness or the experience of wholeness, but the experience of
D:Day27.16 experienced, however, has not been wholeness or the experience of  wholeness, but the experience of separation. What we are speaking of
D:Day27.16 separation. What we are speaking of now is being able to experience  wholeness and the variability of experience that has come through the
D:Day28.8 was most recently spoken of, that of apprehending the new reality of  wholeness. It is not wholeness that is new, but the reality of
D:Day28.8 of, that of apprehending the new reality of wholeness. It is not  wholeness that is new, but the reality of wholeness that is new. The
D:Day28.8 of wholeness. It is not wholeness that is new, but the reality of  wholeness that is new. The reality of being able to experience the
D:Day28.8 to experience the variability of separation from within the state of  wholeness is what is new.
D:Day28.12 This is  wholeness.
D:Day28.18 moved out of the realm of separation and into the realm of union or  wholeness, new conditions will apply. This is why it has been said
D:Day28.22 To move to internally directed experience is to make the move into  wholeness that will cause the “shift of the ages,” the experience of
D:Day28.22 cause the “shift of the ages,” the experience of variability within  wholeness.
D:Day28.24 As you move toward  wholeness, all the pieces of all that we have talked about will begin
D:Day28.24 The thread represents your own journey to truth, your own journey to  wholeness.
D:Day29.1 sight of concepts of duality—where they cease to be real for us.  Wholeness and separation, God and man, life and the individuated
D:Day29.1 this same, simultaneous way. If you can integrate all that opposes  wholeness into one level of experience, you will be able to
D:Day29.1 you will be able to experience life from within the reality of  wholeness rather than from within the reality of separation.
D:Day29.3 final joining, the joining that will end duality and return you to  wholeness—to who you truly are—in the reality in which you truly
D:Day29.4 you exist. Another way of saying this is bringing who you are into  wholeness, which can be interpreted both as bringing all that you are
D:Day29.5 It is your access to two levels of experience—the experience of  wholeness and the experience of separation. While you may have seen
D:Day29.6 also been part of the process and part of the experience of merging  wholeness and separation. While you may have seen it as a new means
D:Day29.7 find a place in which it could become the common denominator between  wholeness and separation. Once you experience yourself in wholeness
D:Day29.7 between wholeness and separation. Once you experience yourself in  wholeness and find yourself in union, you have made of yourself the
D:Day29.7 the common denominator upon which experience can find anchor in  wholeness and union.
D:Day30.1 the whole. Just as simple fractions can be added together to achieve  wholeness once a common denominator is found, your own fractiousness
D:Day30.1 a common denominator is found, your own fractiousness can yield to  wholeness through the common denominator of the self. A common
D:Day30.1 of the self. A common denominator is simply that which yields to  wholeness. This yielding is a natural process. To yield is to give
D:Day30.2 is to translate what is more than one into one. An assumption of  wholeness is “common” in every denominator.
D:Day30.3 simply the existence of what was named or denominated. Existence and  wholeness are the same. Thus your existence, the existence of the
D:Day30.3 the existence of the self, is, or can be, a common denominator of  wholeness. In our act of saying it is so, we name or denominate the
D:Day30.3 saying it is so, we name or denominate the Self as what is common to  wholeness. Despite unlimited variations being available, commonality
D:Day30.3 no matter how fractious are the separate selves, commonality and  wholeness always exist and have always existed.
D:Day30.4  Wholeness cannot be achieved without joining, thus the commonly known
D:Day30.4 two or more are needed in order for knowing to occur. To not know  wholeness would be to be in a state of nothingness. Thus the joining
D:Day30.4 nothingness. Thus the joining of two or more are needed in order for  wholeness to be known and thus to exist as a state of conscious
D:Day30.5 follows then, that to not experience joining is to not experience  wholeness. Stated another way, the self cannot know the Self without
D:Day31.3 joining is the point of the experience and the key to experiencing  wholeness.
D:Day31.4 As has already been stated,  wholeness could not be experienced without division. Wholeness and
D:Day31.4 been stated, wholeness could not be experienced without division.  Wholeness and oneness are the same. You are one in being with your
D:Day31.7 By knowing the One in the many, experience can be achieved within  wholeness.
D:Day31.8 from the Self. Self and God are one and experiencing together in  wholeness. For the individuated Self to experience separately from
D:Day31.8 of what is is the Source of union and the ability to experience in  wholeness.
D:Day34.1 same continuum as are hot and cold, darkness and light. Seeing in  wholeness includes seeing the opposites that seem to exist at these
D:Day34.4 rather than the difference of being in relationship—the  wholeness of being in relationship rather than the separation of
D:Day35.6 the power to call upon the mountain top experience and the view of  wholeness we have achieved here. You will carry it within you, and
D:Day35.16 Creation itself, which stands apart from particulars but united with  wholeness, has led to this time of opposites becoming one and
D:Day35.16 with wholeness, has led to this time of opposites becoming one and  wholeness becoming actual rather than probable. Wholeness is actual.
D:Day35.16 becoming one and wholeness becoming actual rather than probable.  Wholeness is actual. All that is left to be created is awareness that
D:Day35.18 from all others. Thus what you have “created” has stood apart from  wholeness. What is not created in unity could be said to have been
D:Day39.6 of individuation in union and relationship. This is the beginning of  wholeness. What you strive for here is revelation. For only through
D:Day39.41 in you is that which, upon this final acceptance, returns your  wholeness to you.
D:Day40.1 of your being into union, you complete a circuit, a circle of  wholeness, and I become who you are to me. Thus giving and receiving
A.44 in unity and relationship, creation of the new will proceed and  wholeness and healing renew the world in which you live.

T2:10.1 is why you are called to live it rather than to take it. This is  why you are called to be a teacher and a learner both. This is how
T2:10.11  Why, then, is this called learning? Learning simply means to come to

T2:11.7 This is  why we spent a fair amount of time addressing needs in a way we had
T2:12.7 upon the same power of intercession that is the miracle. This is  why we also devoted a fair amount of this Treatise to a discussion of
T3:2.11 for you to have done so. How many times have you asked yourself  why you would have chosen separation if there had not been a reason
T3:2.11 is not one that includes a need to abandon your Self or God.  Why should you be more inclined to believe that you left a paradise
T3:8.1 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. But
T3:8.8 of suffering you would, but to try and fail is too heartbreaking.  Why should you not be bitter when you and all of those you love will
T3:8.8 you and all of those you love will surely suffer and eventually die?  Why should you not be bitter when you believe you are powerless? How
T3:8.11 was found. If what was looked for were means of making life easier,  why not the idea of machinery and tools that would seem to do so? If
T3:8.11 looked for was a means of finding simple pleasures in a harsh world,  why not ideas of entertainment that would seem to provide them?
T3:8.11 that would seem to provide them? People suffering from disease:  Why not cures for those diseases?
T3:8.12 have looked for what they have imagined it was possible to find.  Why would you look for an end to suffering if you felt this was
T3:10.16 This is  why we have called these lessons in forgetting practical lessons for
T3:11.14 are not being 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
T3:11.14 not the truth. This is why the word see is consciously used here and  why we now refrain from use of the word perceive. Perception is gone
T3:14.7 This is precisely  why you must choose not to keep the life of discomfort caused by
T3:14.11 has been mighty. The choice now is not a choice to explore the  why behind it or to look for remedies for the past. The choice now is
T3:14.12 and neither the present nor the future can be built upon it. This is  why we have spent so much time unlearning and why we continue with
T3:14.12 built upon it. This is why we have spent so much time unlearning and  why we continue with lessons of forgetting.
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
T3:14.13 onto the past? The new cannot have historical precedents. This is  why you have been assured that what you are called to is a life so
T3:15.14 ideas about new beginnings have simply been used to demonstrate  why you cannot approach this new beginning as you have those of the
T3:17.1  Why would you ever have chosen to obscure the truth? As we have
T3:17.2 and all other things in creation that existed with the self. This is  why the story of creation includes the naming of creatures. It was
T3:18.2 truth, will now accept and learn from observable truth. This is  why you must become that observable truth.
T3:19.14 they mean anything at all about the nature of who you are. This is  why no more time can be wasted and why so many are being called in
T3:19.14 nature of who you are. This is why no more time can be wasted and  why so many are being called in the strongest manner it is possible
T3:20.6 can be “fought.” You are likely to hear questions concerning  why the illness or suffering has come to be and to hear or offer
T3:20.8 illusion call for the same response, the response of love to love.  Why think you it is loving to believe in suffering? Do you not begin
T3:21.21 and far more than the oceans that separate east from west. This is  why this call to return to your Self is being sounded far and wide

T4:2.19 This is  why it has long been stated that you are not called to evangelize or
T4:2.29 mean, and do not yet recognize it when you experience it. This is  why you can still think of observance of what is as a game of make
T4:3.12 was and become the new nature of the created. There is no reason  why the original nature of your being cannot become a being the
T4:3.12 nature of which is form if you so choose it to be. There is a reason  why the original nature of your being cannot exist in a form
T4:4.9 This is  why this Treatise is called “A Treatise on the New.” There has not

T4:6.1 is a part of the consciousness that is Christ-consciousness. This is  why you hear differing reports of the afterlife from those who have
T4:6.1 the afterlife from those who have experienced temporary death. It is  why you hear differing words and scenarios attributed to me and other
T4:7.5 This is  why all fear, including the fear of death, needs to be removed from
T4:7.5 cannot sustain Christ-consciousness while judgment remains in you.  Why? Because it is not in the nature of Christ, it is not in the
T4:7.8 full variety of the human experience even after it is unnecessary.  Why? Because it is a choice, pure and simple. But because it is an
T4:8.16 of there being nothing you do not know about something. This is  why you study subjects—so that you can come to this completion and
T4:9.1 Learning is not meant to last. This is  why even this coursework comes to an end. It comes to an end here and
T4:11.1 The future is yet to be created. This is  why I stated at the onset of this Treatise that this Treatise would

T4:12.7 why these written words are not the acts of an intermediary and  why they represent direct learning.
T4:12.10 in unity. Learning is a condition of the separated self, which is  why it is no longer needed. You will not fully realize unity while
T4:12.14  Why was this so? You eagerly awaited each learning challenge in the
T4:12.17 we shall! We are creators of the new and we must start somewhere.  Why not here?
D:3.7 aspects of life that were needed in the time of learning. This is  why we began quite truthfully and simply with an acceptance of the
D:3.8 address your true nature as a being existing in union, and this is  why we call them ideas to carry forward. These are new ideas to you
D:3.17 This is  why I will often repeat that I am no longer your teacher. You must
D:4.18 Self is all that learning was for. Let us not dwell any longer on  why this has taken so long or on the suffering that occurred during
D:6.2 learning passes. The thought reversal of which we recently spoke is  why I bring this up. During your time of learning, I used a method of
D:6.27 in “time” although they are already accomplished in unity. This is  why we have spoken of miracles and of the collapse of time the
D:7.16 what is in time. Your envisioning too is bound to time and that is  why so many of you think of envisioning as envisioning the future.
D:7.21 way in which the body has participated in creation. This is  why you have been told that you are not called to evolution.
D:9.1 and a greater means of imprisonment than bars and walls. They are  why you do not see what is and are the reason that you continue to

D:11.15 its unique expression, through the elevated Self of form.  Why would you retain your desire to make an individual contribution,
D:12.6 This is  why we work now on your awareness and acceptance of your changed
D:13.9 you also do not come to the knowing of the state of unity alone.  Why then would you think that you could come to full expression of
D:13.9 expression will bear the mark of your perspective, and that is  why partial truth is never the whole truth, and why the whole truth
D:13.9 and that is why partial truth is never the whole truth, and  why the whole truth is the only truth.
D:13.12 This is  why you were told specifically not to evangelize or attempt to
D:14.3 in the physical world or anything in the state of unity. This is  why the key to unlocking the secrets of all you might want to know
D:14.3 how what is not of the body can still be known to you. And this is  why this exploration and discovery needs to be invited and
D:15.6 building upon each other. This is not the way of creation, which is  why these principles of unity must be seen as the undivided wholeness

D:16.12 learning has not quite been accomplished in you. This is precisely  why we now discuss this state of becoming, this movement from image
D:16.17 your ego self, or your separated self, come to reclaim you. This is  why we have also described this as an after-image. This is but a

D:Day1.1 your ability, an acceptance that there is no real cause to request.  Why must Jesus be accepted? Why cannot the truth be accepted? Why
D:Day1.1 that there is no real cause to request. Why must Jesus be accepted?  Why cannot the truth be accepted? Why cannot everyone hold their

D:Day1.6 the thought system of the ego self, you look back on it and realize  why you could not know your Self while the ego was your guide. You
D:Day1.8  Why are we so linked that your ability to know your Self is
D:Day1.11 of the healer. Some of you may see this example as an example of  why you should not need to accept me. You may claim that you
D:Day1.11 of giving new life to a limb withered or broken. You may wonder  why it should matter whether this power be called Buddha or Allah,
D:Day2.13 you wish you could change. These actions are unchangeable. This is  why simple acceptance is needed.
D:Day2.27 This is  why you first needed to accept me. To accept me is to accept the end
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:Day3.50 Where, you may ask, is the lack of struggle that has been promised?  Why do you still have to try so hard? Work so long? Endure so much?
D:Day3.50 Why do you still have to try so hard? Work so long? Endure so much?  Why isn’t the end in sight?
D:Day4.9 for discovery? And to find out that you were “taught” incorrectly!  Why should you not be angry?
D:Day4.16 time and that it is still challenging the world-view of your time.  Why might this be?
D:Day4.31 task he is about to perform, fails to perform with excellence.  Why? Because a film of the unnatural is placed over the natural.
D:Day4.34 world. You are on top of the mountain. What is this all about?  Why have we gathered together here? It is said that during my forty

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? It is the
D:Day4.51 of union is what you are here coming to know once again, which is  why the time of fear, and along with it the time of learning, can

D:Day5.22 service is effortless for it is the way of creation. Again, this is  why the “effort” of learning must cease.
D:Day5.23 thwarted, for if not, the pattern of learning will remain. This is  why there have always seemed to be “secrets” held among the great
D:Day6.16 this by facilitating the acceptance of life as it is. This is  why this dialogue is occurring on the holy mountain without taking
D:Day6.28 life you still seem so deeply involved in is disturbing to you. Yet  why should this be disturbing? Why should you continue to desire the
D:Day6.28 involved in is disturbing to you. Yet why should this be disturbing?  Why should you continue to desire the life you have had?
D:Day8.19 and will create an attitude that will not be compassionate. This is  why we talk specifically here of dislikes. While you are prone to
D:Day10.2 See you now  why the certainty of union must be combined with the confidence of
D:Day10.12 work with what is as well as with the new and the forgotten. This is  why it has been said that the certainty that comes from access to
D:Day10.26 much room for feelings of the type you currently experience. This is  why we have recently spoken of anger and of those things which you
D:Day10.26 recently spoken of anger and of those things which you dislike—  why we have spoken, in short, of the feelings you would think would
D:Day11.1 could our lives be capable of experiencing no loss but only gain?  Why else would we have to share ourselves to know ourselves?
D:Day14.1 escape is not possible. Everything that is, is with us, which is  why we are the accomplished as well as the void, the healed as well
D:Day14.6 This is  why, after learning to disclaim all that you have called your “own,”
D:Day14.12 a means of coming to know. These words are only one means, which is  why this is called a dialogue. Realize now that this is but one voice
D:Day15.11 who have reached this level of neutrality along with you. This is  why observation is not being replaced. Observation is needed until
D:Day15.13 This cannot be explained in great detail, which is  why it must be practiced. It is to your own authority only that you
D:Day15.22 in need of them and not offer more than can be received. This is  why practice among those who are ready to be boundary-less and
D:Day17.3  Why do we return to this now, repeating what has been said before?
D:Day17.4 learning to a new means of knowing? Christ-consciousness. This is  why it was said in the beginning pages of the Course that the Christ
D:Day17.4 aware that you exist and always been in search of an answer as to  why you exist. You have always been aware of the world around you and
D:Day17.6 This is  why we return now to your identity and the individuation of your
D:Day17.7 maintenance to sustenance of Christ-consciousness. Let’s consider  why this representation should be necessary.
D:Day17.12 Jesus represented or demonstrated has now been realized, which is  why this is called the time of Christ. The “time” of Christ, whom so
D:Day18.6 claim and with it the claim of all that is temporary. This is  why we have spent time on the idea of sickness and other unwanted
D:Day19.5 the world. Until they realize the power of reflection, they wonder  why they, unlike their brothers and sisters called to “do,” do not
D:Day19.14 discover, reflecting the way to their brothers and sisters. This is  why this is not a place or state of non-interaction but of great
D:Day20.7 This is  why you can “know” while always coming to know. Why you can know
D:Day20.7 This is why you can “know” while always coming to know.  Why you can know yourself and constantly be coming to know. The only
D:Day28.18 the realm of union or wholeness, new conditions will apply. This is  why it has been said that the changes that are to come are not about

D:Day35.4 reach awareness of the state of unity, you can’t not share. This is  why.
D:Day35.11 is, in a sense, creation, or recreation of yourself. This is  why you return to the ground-level of humanity with the heights of
D:Day35.11 with the heights of divinity fresh in your minds and hearts. This is  why you return accepting of yourself rather than in a quest for self
D:Day36.19 You can see, now, perhaps,  why we have had to build your awareness slowly in order for you to be
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? This is not much
D:Day37.17 know, and your separate being “knows” of this impossibility. This is  why this Course has had, as its main objective, returning you to true
D:Day39.10 This is  why you must discover your own relationship with me. Discovering your
D:Day39.41 you do not have to learn all that the Christ in you learned. This is  why we have had to enter the time of non-learning—so that you
D:Day39.41 accept that you do not have to try to learn the unlearnable. This is  why we have left the time of becoming behind, why you stand ready to
D:Day39.41 unlearnable. This is why we have left the time of becoming behind,  why you stand ready to enter the time of being in union and
D:Day40.3 within the embrace of the attributelessness of love. This is  why my being has been capable of accepting your projections—because
D:Day40.10 as she begins that she but tries to bring form to the formless.  Why? Because the nature of a being of love is to extend. The nature
D:Day40.11 within the embrace of the attributelessness of love. This is  why my being has been capable of accepting your projections—because
D:Day40.14 you and me is that I am being God and also love, being. This is  why I am all and nothing, the attribute-laden God and the
D:Day40.14 nothing, the attribute-laden God and the attributeless love. This is  why it can be rightly said that God is Love and Love is God. But I am
D:Day40.22 within you the Christ, who is the relationship with love. This is  why individuation has become the conflict between, or the tension of,
E.2 and very soon, they will be entirely gone, never to be asked again.  Why? Because now that you are being who you are in unity and
E.6 will be as if it is the only path in the world and you will wonder  why you didn’t see it all along. Expect this. And it will be. So be
E.7 you onto the world. There will be no projections at all and this is  why you will see so clearly. You will see what is. You will create
E.17 You do not as yet think you know how to just be, and this is  why, in a sense, this dialogue, in this form, must come to an end.
A.18 To give up effort for receptivity is more than some can accept.  Why? Because it is too difficult. It goes against all you have

C:3.9 An idea of love is planted now, in a garden rich with what  will make it grow.
C:3.10 due to your concept of the mind. What you conceive it to be, it  will be to you. While many teachings have attempted to dislodge this
C:3.11 of it in the same way. You seek to gather it together so that it  will provide an improvement to what has been before. You look for
C:3.11 that shows that if you behave in a certain way certain things  will happen as a result. Like a child learning not to touch a stove
C:3.11 a child learning not to touch a stove because it is hot and a burn  will result, or learning that a warm blanket is comforting, you
C:3.11 on your senses and your judgment. While you believe you know what  will hurt you and what you will find comforting, you subject what
C:3.11 judgment. While you believe you know what will hurt you and what you  will find comforting, you subject what cannot be compared to the
C:3.14 be aware your heart, for this is where this learning enters and  will stay. Your heart is now your eyes and ears. Your mind can remain
C:3.15 What this  will mean to you goes far beyond the learning of this Course. One
C:3.15 of this Course. One such concept, given up and not replaced,  will free you beyond your deepest imaginings and free your sisters
C:3.18 to you again: take heart. Such foolishness as your heart’s desires  will save you now. Remember it is your heart that yearns for home.

C:3.23 the proof we have been given of love’s strength. For this we  will return to again and again as we learn to recognize what love is.
C:4.2 can love for love’s sake. What is a false idol? What you think love  will get you. You are entitled to all that love would give but not to
C:4.2 entitled to all that love would give but not to what you think love  will provide for you through its acquisition. This is a classic
C:4.8 all these things that you have made to replace what you already have  will lead you back as surely as they can lead you astray. Where what
C:4.8 back as surely as they can lead you astray. Where what you have made  will lead rests only on your decision. Your decision, couched in many
C:4.12 time is right. For that kind and gentle stance you do not believe  will serve you now, that blindness and self-sacrifice is something to
C:4.15 beauty and the trappings of good upbringing. Those most insecure  will believe in a partner who would shower him or her with praise and
C:4.15 in good health, not too demanding, a companion and a lover who  will be convenient within a busy life.
C:4.16 You hope to be a winner in this game you play, a chosen one who  will have each ounce of love that is given returned in kind. This is
C:4.17 you have set; you expect that a certain amount of prestige  will follow certain accomplishments; you accept that some tasks have
C:4.17 that some tasks have to be done for survival’s sake. You hope there  will be some fairness here in what you give and what you are given
C:4.17 what you give and what you are given back. You hope your hard work  will produce results, the dinner you prepared be eaten with delight,

C:4.17 will deplete the limited number of days in store for you and you  will die. Life is not fair, nor meant to be, you claim. But love is
C:4.18 has no resemblance to how you spend your days or the way your days  will end. Love is all that is set apart in your perception from what
C:4.21 place you have 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
C:4.21 to see the day when you can leave the madness behind, and that you  will still find love behind the doors you have passed through so many
C:4.24 abides the Host who loves all dearly. Within you is the light that  will show you what love is and keep it not set apart from life any
C:4.24 to love. But love can allow a new world to be seen, a world that  will allow you to abide within love’s presence.
C:4.26 not that this joining is a metaphor, a string of pleasant words that  will bring you comfort if you heed them, one more sentiment in a
C:4.27 home. This foreign world where you have been so lonely and afraid  will linger for a while where it can terrify you no longer, until
C:4.27 for a while where it can terrify you no longer, until finally it  will fade away into the nothingness from which it came as a new world
C:5.5 between one body and another, and while you think this is so, you  will not understand relationship or union or come to recognize love
C:5.12 that you enter into a relationship with it, for it is there you  will find love. It is in every joining, every entering into, that
C:5.13 the rise and fall of many armies. What armies of destruction  will rock the world when they are brought to love?
C:5.20 about what to replace your senseless thoughts with, as your heart  will intercede by fulfilling its longing for union as soon as you
C:5.21 in your creation of the world. The only meaning possible for free  will is this: what you choose to join with you, and what you choose
C:5.23 real. Rather than feeling as if you have gained, feelings of loss  will now be what you fight to overcome. What have you done wrong, you
C:5.24 one accomplishment with another, sure that the next one or the next  will be the one to do the trick.
C:5.25 A trick this is indeed, for what has once failed to work  will surely fail again. Stop now and give up what you think you want.

C:6.4 been, with the help of the Holy Spirit, being turned into that which  will help you learn what your reality really is. Yet you still refuse
C:6.6 one with everything that has been created. This simple realization  will start you on the path to learning what your heart would have you
C:6.9 Choose again! And let go your fear of what the truth  will bring. What could be more insane than that which you now call
C:6.10 when you are old and have grown weary of the world. Then perhaps you  will sit in the sun.
C:6.12 is still to come is what you live for, with the undying hope that it  will not be that which came before. For every challenge faced is but
C:6.12 next. And each one comes to replace the old with hope that this one  will be the one—and equal hope that it will not.

C:6.20 mind, between who they were and who they are after death? In honesty  will you admit an envy, an awareness that they still exist, but
C:6.20 those who claim not to believe in God or an afterlife of any sort  will, when prompted to be truthful, admit this is an image that
C:6.20 fantasy, nor did it pass from one mind to the next as stories often  will. It is but part of your awareness of who you are, an awareness
C:6.21 you to a life of such unhappiness. Thoughts of terror and of sin you  will embrace, but thoughts of resurrection and new life you still

C:7.1 times before, and it will be here as well: What you give you  will receive in truth. What you do not receive is a measure of what
C:7.2 own Self. Your giving must be total for you to receive in truth. We  will concentrate more now, however, on withholding than on giving for
C:7.2 As the awareness of your withholding dawns upon your heart, you  will begin to realize what you do not give, and with that

C:7.6 Others label it ethics, morals, values, and say this is the line I  will never cross. It is the cry that says, “I will not sell my soul.”
C:7.6 say this is the line I will never cross. It is the cry that says, “I  will not sell my soul.”
C:7.7 Rejoice that there is something in this world that you  will not bargain with, something you hold sacrosanct. This is your
C:7.7 This is your Self. Yet this Self that you hold so dear that you  will never let it go is precisely what you must be willing to freely

C:7.9 the joy you have kept from yourself will return. A great exchange  will happen as a powerful wind sweeps through your heart, and all the

C:7.16 from the world. In every situation what you would keep is what you  will not have, because you keep it only from yourself.
C:7.19 It is from this center that truth  will light your way.
C:7.20 It is from this center that you  will come to understand that relationship exists in wholeness. We

C:7.21 sure thing that permeates your existence: the knowledge that death  will claim you and all of those you love.
C:7.23 Accept a new authority, even if only for the little while that it  will take you to read these words. Start with this idea: You will
C:7.23 that it will take you to read these words. Start with this idea: You  will allow for the possibility of a new truth to be revealed to your
C:7.23 these words—and when you finish reading these words—their truth  will be revealed to you. Let your heart be open to a new kind of
C:7.23 source. Remind yourself that when love comes to fill your heart, you  will deny it not, nor its source. You do not need to believe that
C:7.23 deny it not, nor its source. You do not need to believe that this  will happen, but only to allow for the possibility of it happening.
C:8.1 as your own Self. Emotions, the thoughts of your heart, are what we  will now work with, separating as we do the truth from your
C:8.3 Communion is union that we  will speak of here as being of the highest level, though in truth, no
C:8.3 all. As a learning being, the idea of levels is helpful to you and  will aid you in seeing that you progress from one step, or one level
C:8.3 This is more a process of remembering than learning, and this you  will understand as memory begins to return to you. Your heart will
C:8.3 you will understand as memory begins to return to you. Your heart  will aid you in replacing thinking with remembering. In this way,

C:8.5 We will thus examine a new way of looking at emotions, a way that  will allow them to assist you in your learning rather than block you
C:8.11 hidden recesses of a heart or mind? Without union all your seeking  will not reveal the truth. And while there is a part of you that
C:8.16 We  will go one step further as well, for many of you are thinking still
C:8.18 and 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
C:8.19 to not observe with your mind, but with your heart. This observance  will contain a holiness, a gift of sight beyond that of your normal
C:8.21 magnitude of all that with you occupies the world. Some days this  will make you feel like one of many, a tiny peon of little
C:8.21 one of many, a tiny peon of little significance. On other days you  will feel quite superior, the ultimate achievement of the world and
C:8.21 of the world and all its years of evolution. There are days you  will feel quite of the earth, as if this is your natural home and
C:8.21 natural home and heaven to your soul. On other days your feeling  will be quite the opposite, and you will wonder where you are. Yes,
C:8.21 soul. On other days your feeling will be quite the opposite, and you  will wonder where you are. Yes, there your body is, but where are you?
C:8.22 Although you cannot observe it, you  will become aware of how the past walks through your days with you,
C:8.29 Your days are but evidence of this truth. What your eyes behold  will one day deceive you while what your heart beholds will the next
C:8.29 eyes behold will one day deceive you while what your heart beholds  will the next day see through the deception. And so one day lived in
C:9.4 your existence and to make things happen. This use of relationship  will never provide the proof or the action you seek, because
C:9.9 it. This you are not ready yet to do, but this is what your heart  will now prepare you for. As you are prepared, you walk alongside he
C:9.10 to return you to your real Self, and the new purpose you establish  will change its conditions as well as its usefulness to you.
C:9.11 on the simple idea that you do not have what you need. You  will continue to believe this while your allegiance remains split.
C:9.11 split. Until you have withdrawn all faith in what you have made, you  will believe that what you made remains useful to you. Since this is
C:9.11 total willingness to change it—a willingness not yet complete—we  will, instead of trying to ignore what you have made, use it in a new
C:9.12 perception of your heart. Your illusions concerning it, when undone,  will quickly reveal to you the truth because your misperceptions
C:9.12 heart are the strongest and purest that exist, and their remembrance  will help to still your mind and reveal the rest.

C:9.21 a warm fire will only provide warmth as long as it is stoked. A meal  will provide fullness only until the next is needed. Your closed door

C:9.24 what you desire, or you can choose instead the only replacement that  will work.
C:9.33 God’s  will for you is happiness, and never has it been otherwise. God’s
C:9.33 memory would tell you that your Creator did. God alone can give free  will. In giving your power to things like your body and to ideas like
C:9.33 your body and to ideas like time your imitation of the gift of free  will is so falsely placed in illusion that you cannot see this
C:9.34 The free  will that God gave you is what has allowed you to make of yourself
C:9.34 is what has allowed you to make of yourself and your world what you  will. Now you look upon this world with guilt and see it as evidence
C:9.35 As long as you do not want to be forgiven you  will not feel the gentle touch of forgiveness upon you and your
C:9.38 individual.” As long as more than this is not sought, more than this  will not be realized.
C:9.39 something is. One thing alone is sure: When you have found it you  will know that it has been found. This is what will bring you
C:9.39 you have found it you will know that it has been found. This is what  will bring you happiness and peace, contentment and a sense of
C:9.39 and peace, contentment and a sense of belonging. This is what  will cause you to feel as if your time here has not been in vain. You
C:9.39 if on your deathbed you have not found what you have sought, you  will not leave in deepest peace but in dark despair and fear. You
C:9.39 will not leave in deepest peace but in dark despair and fear. You  will have no hope for what lies beyond life, for you will have found
C:9.39 and fear. You will have no hope for what lies beyond life, for you  will have found no hope in life.

C:9.47 no feeling badly for all the years in which you saw this not. There  will merely be a glad “Aha!” as what was long forgotten is returned
C:9.47 be a glad “Aha!” as what was long forgotten is returned to you. You  will but smile at the childish games you played, and have no more
C:9.47 more regrets than you would have for your childhood. Your innocence  will stand out clearly here, and never again will you doubt that the

C:9.48 All your vast wanderings  will be seen for what they are. All that you desired will be revealed
C:9.48 vast wanderings will be seen for what they are. All that you desired  will be revealed as only two desires, the desire to love and the
C:10.1 long as you attribute the body with bringing you pleasure, the body  will bring you pain as well. You cannot choose one without the other,
C:10.2 save you countless years of seeking where the truth is not, if you  will but seek where I bid you find.
C:10.3 and retain another because by retaining part you retain all. This  will lead to seeming failure to learn what I would have you learn.

C:10.6 That you are not ready yet does not mean you  will not be ready, just as having lost something does not mean it no

C:10.9 a stage you will pass through, though some may linger long here. You  will stay until you realize that all are good and that you cannot
C:10.9 you cannot earn more of God’s good graces than your brother. You  will stay until you realize that God has given everything already to
C:10.10 and the rewards you would choose here are as dust to those you  will become aware of as you proceed.
C:10.11 do miracles on your own. In the early stages of your learning, you  will be tempted to play a game of make believe. You will not believe
C:10.11 learning, you will be tempted to play a game of make believe. You  will not believe that you are not your body, but you would make
C:10.11 yourself is welcomed by your separated self who knows pretending  will not make it so.
C:10.12 in me, in heaven and in an afterlife is that you do not think you  will be proven wrong here. If you are wrong, you will merely rot away
C:10.12 do not think you will be proven wrong here. If you are wrong, you  will merely rot away after you have died and no one will know how
C:10.12 are wrong, you will merely rot away after you have died and no one  will know how wrong you were! If you are wrong, at least you believed
C:10.13 either union or your neighbor is something else. This belief  will not necessarily bring you comfort or do you no harm. What if you

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
C:10.17 Nothing happens to the Son of God by accident. This observation  will help to put the responsibility of your life back into your
C:10.17 yourself, What choice might lead to happiness instead of this, you  will begin to see a difference in your body’s response to what appear
C:10.18 to find some happiness within it. These instructions to your heart  will begin to make a difference to your state of mind.
C:10.20 demise, but in the loneliness that comes with its loss you  will wonder, at least briefly, why the choice for practicality needed
C:10.20 can look back and see that it chose being right over being happy, it  will congratulate itself despite its unhappiness and say, “I did the
C:10.20 itself despite its unhappiness and say, “I did the right thing.” It  will see itself as victor over the foolish dreams of happiness and
C:10.21 so fulfilling that once you have experienced it you say, “I  will take this despair no more.” For others this threshold is the
C:10.21 to the separated self’s reality. If they cannot leave it, they  will block it out. Some, at this threshold, turn back. They deny
C:10.23 work or the shadow form on the ground as you walk to and fro, you  will be learning the only separation that can be useful to you.
C:10.24 Your first realization of significance  will be that all you hear does not come through your ears. You will
C:10.24 will be that all you hear does not come through your ears. You  will find that you are full of thoughts—thoughts about your body,
C:10.24 of thoughts you might have of someone else’s body. The difference  will be that these thoughts will not seem to have originated in your
C:10.24 of someone else’s body. The difference will be that these thoughts  will not seem to have originated in your head. You may realize for
C:10.25 successful or a hopeless failure at conducting this experiment, you  will realize anew that your thoughts more accurately define who you
C:10.26 laugh at yourself for taking part in this silly experiment, but you  will realize the desire to laugh at yourself is quite genuine and not
C:10.26 at yourself is quite genuine and not conceived from meanness. There  will be a happier self who seems to think this game is rather fun,
C:10.26 This laughter too, as well as the sense of fun that prompted it,  will come without the body’s participation.
C:10.27 You  will soon develop an ability to see without your body’s eyes. This,
C:10.27 soon develop an ability to see without your body’s eyes. This, too,  will seem like a silly game at first, a trick of your imagination.
C:10.27 seem like a silly game at first, a trick of your imagination. You  will, at first, observe only that which you can “see”—your arms and
C:10.27 and legs, 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
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
C:10.27 without, at first even being aware that this is happening. And you  will find that as you observe, you are more aware of your
C:10.27 is your body sitting at a desk in a building with many others. You  will realize how seldom before you were aware of the street you
C:10.27 the open sky above, of all the “others” traveling it with you. You  will feel more a part of everything rather than less, and be
C:10.30 What you  will be feeling as you proceed is the feeling of the tunnel vision of
C:10.30 expanded vision of the unified Self. As you feel this happening, you  will begin to be aware of feelings too that are not bound to the
C:10.30 see nor hear with your body’s eyes or ears, these feelings too  will not depend upon your body’s senses.
C:10.31 You  will find quite a bit of resistance to this experiment. You will find
C:10.31 You will find quite a bit of resistance to this experiment. You  will find you are too serious to play this game and that you have
C:10.31 to do. Yet as much as you resist, the idea has been planted and you  will find yourself, at times that seem to be “against your will,”
C:10.31 and you will find yourself, at times that seem to be “against your  will,” participating in it despite your determination not to do so.
C:10.31 to do so. Once you begin to feel the effects of the experiment you  will also encounter fear, especially if you take the game too
C:10.31 encounter fear, especially if you take the game too seriously. There  will be times when you will not want to laugh when the urge to do so
C:10.31 if you take the game too seriously. There will be times when you  will not want to laugh when the urge to do so comes upon you, and
C:10.31 other times that after the slightest moment of expanded vision you  will welcome back your tunnel vision with gratitude. You will feel
C:10.31 vision you will welcome back your tunnel vision with gratitude. You  will feel relieved that your feet still touch the ground and that the
C:10.31 ground and that the boundary of your body is still intact. But you  will remember the urge to laugh gently at yourself and the expanded
C:10.31 to laugh gently at yourself and the expanded vision as well. You  will remember that for a moment your body did not seem to be a
C:10.31 a boundary that kept you contained within its limitations. Then you  will remember that this is but a Course in remembering and that
C:10.32 Many of you  will rebel here thinking this is not what you signed on for. You just
C:10.32 read about this Course, perhaps, and not be required to take it. You  will want to keep it theoretical and not apply it. You will ask for
C:10.32 take it. You will want to keep it theoretical and not apply it. You  will ask for the information, and say you would really rather not
C:10.32 heart cannot. A tiny glimmering of memory has returned to you and  will not leave you to the chaos you seem to prefer. It will keep
C:10.32 to you and will not leave you to the chaos you seem to prefer. It  will keep calling you to acknowledge it and let it grow. It will tug
C:10.32 It will keep calling you to acknowledge it and let it grow. It  will tug at your heart in the most gentle of ways. Its whisper will
C:10.32 It will tug at your heart in the most gentle of ways. Its whisper  will be heard within your thoughts. Its melody will play within your
C:10.32 of ways. Its whisper will be heard within your thoughts. Its melody  will play within your mind. “Come back, come back,” it will say to
C:10.32 Its melody will play within your mind. “Come back, come back,” it  will say to you. “Come home, come home,” it will sing. You will know
C:10.32 back, come back,” it will say to you. “Come home, come home,” it  will sing. You will know there is a place within yourself where you

C:11.4 have sought to limit by limiting the exercises to a simple few that  will stay with you when all hurrying, fear of failing, and earnest
C:11.4 are but ideas of union come to replace ideas of separation. This  will happen of its own without your understanding as long as you
C:11.4 love is. Neither can happen. And your perception that either can  will shut out all ideas of union.
C:11.6 be. Willingness and faith go together. What you have faith in, you  will see. This Course asks for your willingness to have faith in
C:11.7 of openness, not necessarily of firm belief. You see free  will and willingness together and while they are the same, their
C:11.8 Your free  will you guard most closely, knowing this is what made the separation
C:11.9 is insane, and you know that this is so. But because you view free  will as all you have that God cannot take away from you, you have not
C:11.9 but He can also take it all away, and in the end He surely  will. He then will judge you and determine if you should be rewarded
C:11.9 He can also take it all away, and in the end He surely will. He then  will judge you and determine if you should be rewarded for a life of
C:11.10 And so you give to God a little faith and cherish your free  will, the true god of the separated self. You think at times that
C:11.10 that you live. But your strongest perception of your free  will is of its power. No matter what God wants of you, you can use
C:11.10 of its power. No matter what God wants of you, you can use your free  will to rebel and to make your own choices, choices different than
C:11.11 You do not see that what you choose to do with your free  will matters not to God at all, for what you have chosen to use it
C:11.12 It is true that your free  will is powerful as it is part, but only part, of what has allowed
C:11.12 believe in your separated state. While you could have used your free  will to create like unto your Father, by choosing to make yourself
C:11.12 occur—you have chosen instead to do nothing at all with your free  will but make this one insane choice. Your willingness to make a new
C:11.12 one insane choice. Your willingness to make a new choice is what  will once again make your free will like unto your Father’s will,
C:11.12 to make a new choice is what will once again make your free  will like unto your Father’s will, which is one with it in truth.
C:11.12 is what will once again make your free will like unto your Father’s  will, which is one with it in truth.
C:11.13 Your protectiveness of your free  will is why we must separate willingness from your perception of free
C:11.13 is why we must separate willingness from your perception of free  will. Your free will is the last bastion of your separate army, the
C:11.13 separate willingness from your perception of free will. Your free  will is the last bastion of your separate army, the final line of
C:11.13 army, the final line of defense, the site where the final battle  will take place. Before this final battle is reached your willingness

C:11.14 God will never wrestle your free  will from you, or fight battles to win it for Himself. This final
C:11.14 you have made go, and realize that willingness does not negate free  will. Yet even while you cannot yet quite give up your guardianship
C:11.14 sufficient to begin with a temporary choice, though a lasting choice  will be required before you will feel the shift of cause and quit
C:11.14 choice, though a lasting choice will be required before you  will feel the shift of cause and quit worrying about effect. For now
C:11.14 that can be rescinded at any time. Your temporary willingness  will be enough to begin to effect cause and in so doing bring some
C:11.16 that goes out to truth and not illusion. It is a call whose answer  will come to you quickly on the wings of angels, a fluttering your
C:11.16 come to you quickly on the wings of angels, a fluttering your heart  will feel, for angels too are one with you. It may feel like
C:11.17 love is. You need not concentrate on where to find love, for love  will find you. You need not concentrate on giving love, for you
C:11.17 do not yet know, and when you know it you need not give it, for it  will extend from you naturally in miracles called love. Love is all
C:11.17 extend from you naturally in miracles called love. Love is all that  will fill your emptiness, and all that will never leave you empty
C:11.17 called love. Love is all that will fill your emptiness, and all that  will never leave you empty again as it extends from you to your
C:11.17 it extends from you to your brothers and sisters. Love is all that  will not leave you wanting. Love is all that will replace use with
C:11.17 Love is all that will not leave you wanting. Love is all that  will replace use with unity.
C:12.4 We have said before the only meaning possible for your free  will is your choice of what to join with and your choice of what to
C:12.6 God’s  will for you is happiness, and of this you can be certain. To align
C:12.6 for you is happiness, and of this you can be certain. To align your  will with God’s is but to make this certain state your home. This is
C:12.6 This is but a wish come true, and when it is all you wish for it  will come to be. And in the granting of this wish will come your rest
C:12.6 you wish for it will come to be. And in the granting of this wish  will come your rest and the laying down of every heavy burden you
C:12.7 of your illusion in its place, you would understand the rest that  will simply come of giving up your need to do so. Your desire for
C:12.8 Course aims to establish your identity, for from it all the rest  will come. As such, this Course seems to ask for change at every
C:12.8 to ask for change at every level, and yet from one change alone  will all the others follow—and through no effort on your part at
C:12.9 in you. Re-establishing your relationship with your brother is what  will show your Self to you. You have one brother who wears but many
C:12.14 For what alone in all creation could be affected by your free  will but your own self? But one was needed to, of his own free will,
C:12.14 free will but your own self? But one was needed to, of his own free  will, join his will with his Father’s for it to be done for all. This
C:12.14 your own self? But one was needed to, of his own free will, join his  will with his Father’s for it to be done for all. This is all
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
C:13.1 You  will never fully understand what unity means, but you will come to
C:13.1 You will never fully understand what unity means, but you  will come to feel what unity means, and this I promise you. This is
C:13.1 this Course, for once you have experienced the feeling of unity, you  will need no understanding of it. This is all the exercises that call
C:13.1 and is merely an extension of the first. In this exercise you  will begin to realize that your brothers and sisters are not their
C:13.1 to interact with others and as you observe this interaction, you  will “see” yourself and others in a new light. Your body will seem
C:13.1 you will “see” yourself and others in a new light. Your body  will seem more connected with those of the others it interacts with,
C:13.1 more connected with those of the others it interacts with, for they  will be grouped together in your observation of them. It will not be
C:13.1 for they will be grouped together in your observation of them. It  will not be only others you observe but yourself and others, placing
C:13.1 This seeming togetherness of bodies is just a first step that  will take you beyond the illusion of bodies to togetherness of spirit.
C:13.2 what you already know of the spirit of the person you observe. You  will be amazed at the knowledge you already have and the joy it
C:13.3 recollection, and the more you practice them the more true memory  will return to you. Do not apply any effort to these exercises,
C:13.3 exercise just the tiniest bit of consistent practice, however, it  will soon become routine to you, for you will want to continuously
C:13.3 practice, however, it will soon become routine to you, for you  will want to continuously experience the pleasure that it brings.
C:13.4 It is best to leave words off this experience as, if you do not, you  will soon be ascribing some attributes to one spirit and not to
C:13.5 You  will soon find that what you recall of spirit is love. You will want
C:13.5 You will soon find that what you recall of spirit is love. You  will want to give it many names at first, and might not even
C:13.5 many names at first, and might not even recognize it as love, for it  will come without all the longing and sadness you so often associate
C:13.5 come and with them the realization that while no two spirits  will seem exactly the same, they also are not “different.” The love
C:13.5 exactly the same, they also are not “different.” The love from each  will fill you with happiness because it is already complete and has
C:13.5 sense of longing or sadness of any kind. Because it is complete, it  will ask nothing of you, but will seem to offer you a warm welcome,
C:13.5 of any kind. Because it is complete, it will ask nothing of you, but  will seem to offer you a warm welcome, as if you are a long lost
C:13.6 This is the new “proof” that, while not scientific or verifiable,  will offer you the evidence you seek to confirm the truth of what you
C:13.8 While you  will not realize it at first, because you have no experience but only
C:13.8 no experience but only memory of feeling yourself in such a way, you  will eventually realize that the memories you recall of the spirit of
C:13.10 Your ego  will strongly resist your attempts to listen to your heart, and will
C:13.10 ego will strongly resist your attempts to listen to your heart, and  will call this every kind of foolishness, a waste of time that could
C:13.11 of others and yourself be shattered? Oh yes, and rightly so. Gladly  will you let them go and, if you trust yourself, all the evidence
C:13.11 against your brother that you have stored up in your lifetime  will be let go as well.
C:13.12 Each of you  will initially find it difficult to accept the innocence and
C:13.12 innocence and sinlessness of others and yourself, for your memory  will contain no hint of past misdeeds, errors or mistakes. No one
C:13.12 will contain no hint of past misdeeds, errors or mistakes. No one  will have leveled any hurts on you or anyone else. No reason for
C:13.12 have leveled any hurts on you or anyone else. No reason for guilt  will exist within this memory. No shame or fear is here, and no
C:14.1 in the world that you have made. Think but a minute of this, and you  will begin to see the enormity of the difference in these two
C:14.12 look at it with eyes that truly see. It is the magnifying glass that  will allow you to see your world in all its mad confusion. For what
C:14.18 And when you cease to exist, so does your universe. The lights  will be turned out upon it and it will be no more.
C:14.18 so does your universe. The lights will be turned out upon it and it  will be no more.
C:14.19 it get away! It too must be maintained within your universe, or you  will know it not and its benefits will escape and be lost to you. You
C:14.19 within your universe, or you will know it not and its benefits  will escape and be lost to you. You wish that you could join with it
C:14.19 one rich in oil, another in grain, you set up dependencies that  will keep you linked. Some of you do this quite obviously, and over
C:14.23 be gained by some and not by others, a pinnacle of achievement that  will prove your rightness and your success after you are gone. Love
C:14.26 While your purpose remains to make yourself and others special, you  will not put an end to the separation. And you cannot just let go of
C:14.29 love with the special ones on whom you choose to bestow it, you  will know love not. What you will know is specialness, raised to the
C:14.29 on whom you choose to bestow it, you will know love not. What you  will know is specialness, raised to the level of the Almighty and set
C:15.3 While you desire specialness for yourself, your true Self  will remain hidden and unknown, and since this is a Course that seeks
C:15.3 true identity, specialness must be seen for what it is so that you  will desire it no longer. You can have specialness or your true Self,
C:15.3 and deception. Be truthful as you examine yourself and you  will see that this is so.
C:15.10 something new, something worthy of your diligence and something that  will not leave behind your brothers and your sisters to a life of
C:15.11 you must leave behind. And there is a way to do so, a way that  will not harm any of those you love even while betraying all they
C:15.12 join with him and with your Father. In this choice lies one united  will for glory that knows neither specialness nor separation. In this
C:16.6 instead what it is looking for. What you are looking for is what you  will find, but finding it does not make it the truth, except as it is
C:16.11 judge, and only your split mind that has made of this memory what  will serve its purpose. What it calls a deficiency is your saving
C:16.13 self, and if you do not watch out for your own safety, surely you  will perish. Yet while you watch vigilantly you know that you cannot
C:16.15 it, you live as if you believe that what has never worked before  will somehow miraculously work in the future. You have nothing but
C:16.20 know the saying not believe in the tenets it represents. This, you  will claim, you have evidence for. It is all around you. The strong
C:16.22 suffer hardship. Yet it is often only those who suffer hardship who  will rise up and claim the power that is their own instead of looking
C:17.2 that has never left it. It is the reunion of these two selves that  will bring about the completion of the universe and the return of
C:17.3 know what was previously unknown to you can remove the fear, if you  will let it.
C:17.4 of it as if it would change the nature of the universe itself. It  will change your perception of it. This is both what you desire and
C:17.5 you would rather not know, and therefore must be bad, are what  will be revealed. And yet all the evidence of your own thoughts will
C:17.5 what will be revealed. And yet all the evidence of your own thoughts  will reveal to you your willingness to accept the bad about yourself
C:17.16 your heart is to only give thought to forgiveness. This many of you  will give, even to deciding to forgive despite your better judgment.
C:18.9 heart, or wholeheartedness. A half-hearted approach to this learning  will not work, nor will the attention of a split mind. It cannot be
C:18.9 A half-hearted approach to this learning will not work, nor  will the attention of a split mind. It cannot be emphasized strongly
C:18.9 would be like any more than you can now imagine what a united world  will be like. You did not understand, from unity’s standpoint, what
C:18.11 The experience of unity  will alter your belief system and that of others, for what you learn
C:18.16 your orientation from mind to heart. This is a first step in what  will seem now like an attempt to balance two separate things, but is
C:18.16 is but a mind in which love rules, and mind and heart are one. We  will proceed by calling this wholeheartedness rather than mind or
C:19.1 and you could not fully experience anything without your free  will. A separate self with a free will operating in an external
C:19.1 anything without your free will. A separate self with a free  will operating in an external world, as well as a spirit self
C:19.3 experience rejoice, for you can choose a new experience. Your free  will has not been taken from you, nor has the power of creation
C:19.4 of glorifying the separated self and to let the world be what it is  will begin the transformation. This requires the first unification,
C:19.12 Your belief in your brothers and sisters  will not be total, however, without the reunion of mind and heart
C:19.15 to know your own Self—it is obvious that another’s experience  will not bring this knowledge to you, not even my experience. If this
C:19.16 you remain here, even experiences beyond thoughts and words you  will apply word and thought to. Yet love has often brought you close
C:19.18 and thus of training before you can be aware of the answer you  will receive. It is clear you can ask for what you know not. This is
C:19.18 the separate self and to believe in the possibility of response, you  will find yourself more afraid to ask. All your asking or prayer
C:19.20 all you long for is nearer than ever before. To talk of going “back”  will undoubtedly make you feel impatient, but this is not a going
C:19.20 make you feel impatient, but this is not a going back that  will in any way resemble the “going back” that you have tried to do
C:19.20 a request to review your life, it is the last such review that  will be required before letting the past go completely. All your
C:19.20 attempts to go back have been like attempts to pay a debt that  will never go away. This going back will leave you debt free and thus
C:19.20 like attempts to pay a debt that will never go away. This going back  will leave you debt free and thus free in truth.
C:19.21 reflection arising from a deep pool. Here what is in need of healing  will but briefly come to the surface and leave the hidden depths
C:19.21 glance of compassion, the merest moment of reflection, before it  will dissipate and show a new reflection.
C:19.22 of truth from illusion. Despite the similarity between what this  will call forth and the description of the final judgment, judgment
C:19.23 of right-mindedness. Your willingness to accept me as your teacher  will help you to accept my sight as your own and thus to be
C:19.23 back in judgment is not what is required here. Only the opposite  will advance our aim of uniting mind and heart.
C:19.24 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:20.2 head against my breast as I stroke your hair and assure you that it  will be all right. Realize that this is the whole world, the
C:20.12 the wholeness of all life. The whole exists untroubled by what it  will be. It is.
C:20.17 the one identity. When you realize the oneness of your identity you  will be one with Christ. Christ is synonymous with oneness.
C:20.24 Forget yourself and memory  will return to you. Beyond your personal self and the identity you
C:20.31 Your actions and the results of your actions in a universe of love  will naturally be different from your actions and the results of your
C:20.32 true power is acceptance of your God-given authority via your free  will. When I beseeched my Father, saying, “They know not what they
C:20.33 The rest of the universe, existing in a state of compassionate free  will devoid of fear, knows what it does. There are no opposing forces
C:20.34 this may seem to be metaphorical language it is not. Listen and you  will hear. Hear, and you cannot help but rejoice in the dance.
C:20.35 you do comes from existing within the embrace. You know you do the  will of God because you are at one with that will.
C:20.35 You know you do the will of God because you are at one with that  will.
C:20.36 have in the “if onlys” of fear, all the certainty I have spoken of  will be yours.
C:20.38 flow from love. Hope is a willingness to ask for help, believing it  will come. Hope is the reason and the outcome for which we pray. Hope
C:20.41 What you each have been given is that which  will serve your purpose. You could have no more perfect gifts, for
C:20.41 are except when you give in to making judgments. Look deeply and you  will see that what you would call your imperfections are as chosen
C:20.43 beings of perfection. When you begin to see them as such, what you  will receive from them is far grander than anything you would before
C:20.44 Your thinking  will begin to change to reflect your recognition of reception.
C:20.44 of reception. Reception and welcome are highly linked. You  will find you are welcome to all the gifts you recognize in your
C:20.44 gifts you recognize in your brothers and sisters just as you freely  will offer yours to serve them. To serve rather than to use is an
C:20.44 to use is an enormous change in thinking, feeling, and acting. It  will immediately make the world a kinder, gentler place. And it is
C:20.45 remain cognizant of this distinction between serving and service. It  will be helpful if you keep in mind that the idea of to serve is
C:20.45 resistance to expecting willingness is another key change that  will lead toward wholeheartedness. When you change your actions from
C:20.45 and use to those of being willing to serve and be served, it  will assist not only you and your peacefulness, but will bring
C:20.45 be served, it will assist not only you and your peacefulness, but  will bring peacefulness to the world as well.
C:21.2 of parts that the holiness of what is in-between is found. This  will be discussed in more detail later, but for now, I return you,
C:21.4 assistance. To begin to conceptualize in ways that touch your heart  will free your mind of its reliance on thought concepts, thus
C:21.7 as long as mind and heart interpret meaning in different ways you  will not find peace. You have, in the past, accepted these different
C:21.7 path you follow, the path of the mind or the path of the heart, you  will not get where you are wanting to go until they are joined. You
C:21.7 wholeheartedness. The path of neither mind nor heart alone  will take you where the path of unity will take you, and the journey
C:21.7 neither mind nor heart alone will take you where the path of unity  will take you, and the journey will not be the same.
C:21.7 will take you where the path of unity will take you, and the journey  will not be the same.
C:21.9 you can determine meaning, and while only a wholehearted approach  will determine true meaning, the truth is the truth and does not
C:22.1 We  will talk much more of imagining now, and you may, at first, be
C:22.1 for such activity. Your thoughts regarding imagining and imagination  will change with your change in perspective on use. You will no
C:22.1 imagination will change with your change in perspective on use. You  will no longer be using your imagination but letting your imagination
C:22.2 We  will be letting images serve as learning devices. They will enhance
C:22.2 We will be letting images serve as learning devices. They  will enhance our use of language so that our language becomes one for
C:22.2 so that our language becomes one for both head and heart. We  will begin by discussing the concept of intersection and look at it
C:22.2 as yet discussed how this relationship is provided in form. Now we  will do so.
C:22.12 and all that is sitting as that to which you have determined you  will, at some later date, get around to assigning meaning.
C:22.20 eventually to tell stories without the use of the “I” pronoun. This  will seem, at first, as if it is depersonalizing the world and making
C:22.20 if it is depersonalizing the world and making it less intimate. It  will seem as if you are shirking some primal responsibility to assign
C:22.22 as definition to meaning as truth. As odd and impersonal as it  will seem at first, I assure you the feeling of impersonality will be
C:22.22 as it will seem at first, I assure you the feeling of impersonality  will be replaced quickly with an intimacy with your surroundings that
C:22.23 This intimacy itself  will allow you to see your “self” as an integral part of all that
C:22.23 universal becomes available. As the universal becomes available, you  will have no desire for the personal. Even so, you will find that
C:22.23 available, you will have no desire for the personal. Even so, you  will find that what you consider your individuality or uniqueness is
C:22.23 but that it is different than you have always imagined it to be. You  will find that you fulfill a grand purpose, and have a wonderful part
C:22.23 purpose, and have a wonderful part to play in a grand design. You  will not feel cheated by losing your separated self. You will feel
C:22.23 design. You will not feel cheated by losing your separated self. You  will feel free.
C:23.2 The lessons learned from love  will go a long way in assuaging your remaining fears about the loss
C:23.2 fears about the loss of your individuality that you believe  will accompany the loss of your separated self. For, as each of you
C:23.10 as well. Think of the way in which the word body is used and this  will be clear. The body politic. A body of knowledge. Belief fostered
C:23.13 is required to cause this to be so. It is what is necessary now. It  will change the world.
C:23.15 are free of this misperception, this inaccurate belief, your body  will be freed. It will no longer be an object of use but a means of
C:23.15 misperception, this inaccurate belief, your body will be freed. It  will no longer be an object of use but a means of service.
C:23.16 Freeing your perception from your nearly immutable belief in form  will allow for all changes in form required by the miracle. Form is
C:23.22 the belief. It is the composite of your beliefs, the totality. It  will continue to hold former beliefs as well as new beliefs until old
C:23.24 opportunities call for a period of engagement with life. Many of you  will have begun to experience unlearning opportunities even while
C:23.24 with life cannot be avoided, however, and your attempts to avoid it  will only cause an increase in feelings generated by experiences of
C:23.24 of duality. While you hold conflicting beliefs within you, you  will be conflicted and affected by polarity. Unlearning allows you to
C:23.25 From this point forward, I assure you, all experiences  will be thus until unlearning is no longer needed. If you will
C:23.25 will be thus until unlearning is no longer needed. If you  will remember that the one exercise for your mind is dedicating all
C:23.25 one exercise for your mind is dedicating all thought to union, you  will keep your mind engaged and less resistant to unlearning. When
C:23.25 to unlearning. When you feel resistance—and of course your mind  will resist unlearning what it has striven to learn—return your
C:23.26 What  will happen when you look at each situation as a challenge to your
C:23.26 not remember that you are involved in a process of unlearning that  will lead to the conviction you have so long sought, you will indeed
C:23.26 that will lead to the conviction you have so long sought, you  will indeed feel tested and will try to take control of the learning
C:23.26 conviction you have so long sought, you will indeed feel tested and  will try to take control of the learning situation. Not taking
C:23.26 beliefs. As long as you attempt to remain in control, old beliefs  will not be purged.
C:23.29 learn previously? What are the lessons? What is the curriculum? How  will you know when you have achieved a learning objective? Yet how
C:23.29 and translated into beliefs. Only your own life experiences  will reverse the process.
C:24.1 Where you learned to hate, you  will learn to love. Where you learned to fear, you will learn safety.
C:24.1 to hate, you will learn to love. Where you learned to fear, you  will learn safety. Where you learned to distrust, you will learn
C:24.1 to fear, you will learn safety. Where you learned to distrust, you  will learn trust. And each learning experience will be a learning
C:24.1 to distrust, you will learn trust. And each learning experience  will be a learning experience because it will touch your heart. It
C:24.1 each learning experience will be a learning experience because it  will touch your heart. It may be as simple as a smile from a child
C:24.1 may feel as if everything makes you want to cry because everything  will touch you, each lesson will feel tender. Unlearning has no
C:24.1 makes you want to cry because everything will touch you, each lesson  will feel tender. Unlearning has no harshness about it. If you simply
C:24.1 has no harshness about it. If you simply allow it to come, it  will reward you constantly with what can best be described as
C:24.4 love touch your heart. No lessons that do not touch your heart  will accomplish anything. The purpose of the final lessons are both
C:24.4 attention, being present. These are the lessons with which we  will conclude.
C:25.6 have projected your fear onto them. Only when you cease to do this  will you feel true devotion.
C:25.8 devotion is practiced, is useful during the time of tenderness. It  will lead to the understanding of oneness as completion, an
C:25.9 Course and no longer feel duped by life. All of your contests of  will are supported by your contention that you have been misled. It
C:25.10 to acquire some perceived ideal separated state, then all action  will be out of harmony. If, however, you have accepted the basic
C:25.10 Course and believe you are here to realize unity, then all action  will be in harmony. If you believe you and your brothers and sisters
C:25.10 in a state of reprisal, having fallen from grace, then all action  will be out of harmony. If you believe you and all other living
C:25.10 other living things are here in a state of grace, then all action  will be in harmony. If you believe one living thing is more important
C:25.10 one living thing is more important than any other, then all action  will be out of harmony. If you believe all are essential, then all
C:25.10 be out of harmony. If you believe all are essential, then all action  will be in harmony.
C:25.12 separated and vulnerable state. During the time of tenderness, you  will learn, through the practice of devotion, to identify and reject
C:25.13 time of tenderness is a time of healing, and as you are healed you  will realize you are no longer vulnerable to being wounded. Fear of
C:25.13 While you think you can remain disappointed or disillusioned, you  will not be invulnerable. There is always, behind every
C:25.13 believe feelings of lack of love come from anywhere but within, you  will not be invulnerable.
C:25.14 or an excuse to challenge the mighty forces of humanity or nature,  will eventually lose the game they play. True invulnerability can
C:25.14 who recognize it as part of their true identity. Invulnerability  will then serve you and your brothers and sisters. Its service is one
C:25.16 this Course is about. Living from love. Living from love is what  will reverse the lessons of the past. Reversing the lessons of the
C:25.16 the lessons of the past. Reversing the lessons of the past is what  will allow you to live in love in every instance.
C:25.18 you begin to live love, a reverse of what you might expect to happen  will happen. While you may expect that everything will take on
C:25.18 expect to happen will happen. While you may expect that everything  will take on greater importance, the reverse will at first be true.
C:25.18 expect that everything will take on greater importance, the reverse  will at first be true. You will see little in what you do that
C:25.18 take 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
C:25.18 first be true. You will see little in what you do that matters. You  will wonder why you are unconcerned about many of the things you have
C:25.18 seem to have less purpose. You may begin to wonder what to do. You  will almost certainly question what you do for a “living.” You will
C:25.18 You will almost certainly question what you do for a “living.” You  will question many patterns and habits.
C:25.19 be tinged with anxiety, anger, confusion, perplexity, even rage. You  will doubt that these are the proper feelings of a person living
C:25.19 common feelings of unlearning, and should be accepted as such. You  will learn that while some things you have done and will continue to
C:25.19 as such. You will learn that while some things you have done and  will continue to do may not matter, they may still be done with
C:25.19 matter, they may still be done with patience, grace, and love. You  will learn that other things you have done, beliefs you have held,
C:25.19 beliefs you have held, patterns and habits that have occupied you,  will not accompany you into your life of love. These you will leave
C:25.19 you, will not accompany you into your life of love. These you  will leave behind.
C:25.20 created, and a desire to create anew. At this stage, this desire  will come from a feeling of needing to reassert the self. This need
C:25.20 will come from a feeling of needing to reassert the self. This need  will arise as you realize that you can take no credit for your life.
C:25.20 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 looking

C:25.20 for a place in which to reside. It will be looking for identity. It  will want to say: “This is who I am.” This is an exciting sign, for
C:25.20 is losing hold. Be patient during this time, and your new identity  will emerge. If the urge to create is strong, certainly let it serve
C:25.20 for praise or acknowledgment of your creations at this time. You  will soon realize that creation is not of, or for, the personal self.
C:25.21 This  will be a time of discernment. You may feel it as a time of decision
C:25.21 you attempt to make conscious decisions the quicker your unlearning  will take place and the lessons of discernment occur. Discernment is
C:25.22 being still and awaiting wisdom. Your feeling of being identity-less  will make decision-making and choices of all kinds appear to be
C:25.22 of unlearning. At the same time, however, decisions and choices  will seem to need to be made with increasing frequency. Your feeling
C:25.22 Your feeling of needing to make new choices, while strong,  will not necessarily reflect real need but rather an impatience with
C:25.22 need but rather an impatience with the way things are and were. You  will want to force change rather than wait for it to arrive. If you
C:25.22 change that does not necessarily require action on your part, you  will feel some relief.
C:25.23 posing the question or concern that is in need of appropriate action  will suffice. When an answer comes to you, acknowledge that it is an
C:25.23 from your new identity and express appreciation for it. While you  will at times doubt that you have received an answer or that the
C:25.23 an answer or that the answer you have received is correct, you  will soon learn to trust this quiet process of discernment. You will
C:25.23 you will soon learn to trust this quiet process of discernment. You  will know you have succeeded when you truly feel as if you have
C:25.24 contrary to usual patterns of action you have taken in the past, you  will often meet resistance. Try to be lighthearted at such times and
C:25.24 try the new way. Remind yourself that you have nothing to lose. You  will soon learn that this is so. You will also soon realize why this
C:25.24 you have nothing to lose. You will soon learn that this is so. You  will also soon realize why this time of engagement with life is
C:26.1 and adventure, friendships, or financial security. Most of you  will think of having a long life.
C:26.8 to become involved with life. I say we because I am with you and  will not leave your side. I say we because your first involvement is
C:26.9 You do not yet, but  will soon realize the happiness that is ours. Your mind can just not
C:26.10 might mean, who strive to find the clues to what they ask you to do,  will find it difficult to cease your struggle and your striving. You
C:26.12 by the day? Are you not anxious to say: “Tell me what to do and I  will do it?” Are you not ready for certainty above all else? Are you
C:26.20 I cannot tell you here what you  will hear. How can I, when each of you will hear the answer of your

C:26.25 spend each day in review or speculation. What has happened and what  will happen next? You attempt to rewrite previous chapters and to
C:27.5 Self. Once you have identified your true Self all such confusion  will end.
C:27.7 through relationship, your concerns about concentration on the self  will end. Life is not a matter of self versus other. Life is a matter
C:27.8 of unity. Thus your relationship with Christ always was and always  will be. Your task here is to come to know that relationship once
C:27.16 you pray whether you should pray for specific outcomes or for God’s  Will to be done. You fear being a miracle worker because you do not
C:27.16 You fear being a miracle worker because you do not think that you  will ever know what is called for.
C:27.17 As you learn to live in relationship in the present, this confusion  will pass. Your relationship will guide you surely to the proper
C:27.17 in the present, this confusion will pass. Your relationship  will guide you surely to the proper response. I use the term “proper”
C:27.18 Does an understanding of the relationship of all things mean that you  will have power that is not of this world? Will you see the future
C:27.18 all things 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
C:27.19 to be. It is a knowing felt within the heart for which there still  will be no proof, but for which there will be the certainty you
C:27.19 heart for which there still will be no proof, but for which there  will be the certainty you heretofore have lacked. The typical fears
C:27.19 have lacked. The typical fears you have experienced in the past  will not arise within this knowing.
C:27.20 How  will you know when you have achieved the state of grace in which you
C:27.20 which you were created, and that you are living in relationship? You  will know by the certainty you feel. If you do not feel this
C:27.21 You are ready now, and all that  will you prevent you from living a life of love is unwillingness to
C:27.21 is only one remaining source of such unwillingness. Your willingness  will now depend on whether or not you trust. Do you trust these
C:28.4 This sharing of personal testimony has reached its zenith and  will no longer be as welcomed or appreciated, so even were the intent
C:28.12 now, “Are you saying to do nothing?” At the thought of this you  will be aghast and, what is more, bitterly disappointed. Again, as in
C:28.13 is where you are supposed to be. The path to follow to all changes  will be shown to you if you will but be attentive. If you follow the
C:28.13 to be. The path to follow to all changes will be shown to you if you  will but be attentive. If you follow the way that is shown to you,
C:28.13 If you follow the way that is shown to you, all uncertainty  will end. Uncertainty is where difficulty lies. Certainty and ease as
C:28.13 for you to make. There is only a call for a dedicated and devoted  will, a will dedicated to the present moment, to those who are sent
C:28.13 to make. There is only a call for a dedicated and devoted will, a  will dedicated to the present moment, to those who are sent to you

C:29.2 Will or higher Cause. Some of you associate it with a lack of free  will, a lack of choice, a course that will lead you to a subservient
C:29.2 it with a lack of free will, a lack of choice, a course that  will lead you to a subservient stature. Others think of it in terms
C:29.4 your goals. These adjustments in your attitude toward service  will bring about the completion of the cycle of giving and receiving,
C:29.6 Him, He would but tell you this: My child, return to me. God has no  Will apart from yours. Your return to unity is all God seeks for you,
C:29.9 colors of life. Life, not death, assures your approach. God Himself  will guide your entry.
C:29.10 falsely that which you would imitate from creation. In work too you  will find an example of this. For you all know that work and service
C:29.14 No wholeness  will be possible for you while you look at life in terms of
C:29.14 schedules, plans, time-tables, or things to get done. No wholeness  will be possible for you while you compartmentalize your life into
C:29.17 is joy. Once you have given up your belief in separation this  will be known to you.
C:30.3 learning in order to find out who you are or what your contribution  will eventually be.
C:30.5 toward what might be called universal consciousness, though you  will not know it when it is at first achieved. For universal
C:30.11 the Course is speaking of now, in essence, is gain without loss. You  will never be aware of gain without loss while you believe in what is
C:30.11 some proof or validation. You might think if you are “right” you  will be successful, if you are “successful” you will be secure, if
C:30.11 you are “right” you will be successful, if you are “successful” you  will be secure, if you are “good” you will prosper. You do not see
C:30.11 if you are “successful” you will be secure, if you are “good” you  will prosper. You do not see these ways of thinking as ideas
C:31.1 There is only one Mind, just as there is only one  Will. This you are afraid of, as you believe this statement threatens
C:31.10 Give up this notion of losing your Self to God, and you  will be done for all time with resisting God. Only in God can you

C:31.14 of giving and receiving that, being finally and totally understood,  will free you to be wholehearted.
C:31.16 safe, acceptable, presentable. The portion that your ego has deemed  will cause you no risk. It is the ego that asks: Are you certain that
C:31.16 ego that asks: Are you certain that if you share that feeling, you  will still be loved? Are you certain that if you reveal that secret,
C:31.16 still be loved? Are you certain that if you reveal that secret, you  will still be safe? Are you certain that if you try something new,
C:31.16 still be safe? Are you certain that if you try something new, you  will still be accepted? It is the ego that deems honesty a game; the
C:31.28 If you but change what you look for, what you see and what you learn  will also change.
C:31.36 You also seek to know your brothers and sisters so that you  will come to know what to expect from them. Once you have determined
C:32.2 learning mode you are most comfortable. All learning modes, however,  will eventually return you to the Source, which is Love. The
C:32.2 are of one Mind and one Heart, and that regardless of this truth you  will not, in coming to know and experience this, lose your Self. The
C:32.3 join in wholeheartedness in the embrace. You are home, and there you  will forever stay.
C:32.5 away. Give to me the thoughts that remain to trouble you and I  will return them to you transformed by Love. Do not grieve your
C:32.5 your thoughts or believe in loss of anything of any kind. Thus  will all you have already received be remembered in this time of the
T1:1.1 and the means are sought for the union of being with that which  will provide for peace. Knowing not what this is, is the source of
T1:1.2 of this state of being requires further guidance. Thus this Treatise  will attempt to give specific examples of what to look for as your
T1:1.2 responses from those of a split mind. Its further purpose  will be to identify the service that you can provide once your
T1:1.4 and learned from. It is in the present-moment experience that you  will receive the blessing of being able to respond differently to
T1:1.5 is that of separating illusion from the truth. This act  will require no effort for what you have learned in this Course has
T1:1.5 situation that re-enacts a previous learning experience arises, you  will, if you trust your heart, be perfectly able to identify illusion
T1:1.5 recognizing meaning. All that you believe you learned from illusion  will have no meaning to you now and will allow you to give up any
T1:1.5 you learned from illusion will have no meaning to you now and  will allow you to give up any remnants of false learning you
T1:1.5 All that you learned in error from identifying love incorrectly  will be relearned as love is properly identified.
T1:1.6 instructed you to trust in your heart, your reunited mind and heart  will now be called to act in unison. That A Course of Love instructed
T1:1.10 The joy that  will come to you from the thoughts of a mind joined in union will be
T1:1.10 that will come to you from the thoughts of a mind joined in union  will be unparalleled in your experience here. “Ah,” you will say with
T1:1.10 in union will be unparalleled in your experience here. “Ah,” you  will say with a relief and joy that knows no bounds, “this is what it
T1:1.10 only illusion and called it reality, the mind joined in union  will now, more and more, recognize only truth and experience only the
T1:1.11 You can already imagine what an extensive change this  will bring, and, as you are still experiencing change in time,
T1:2.10 It is only your attention to the existence of this higher order that  will reveal its laws to you. These are the laws of God or the laws of
T1:2.12 but a dialogue to which you have not responded. The art of thought  will free you to respond.
T1:2.17 higher world and the eternal. It binds you to all those who have and  will experience the sunset by being a shared experience. It is there
T1:2.20 in relation to a sunset, its application to all areas of life  will at first seem quite demanding. But what is elementary remains
T1:3.1 to memory in terms of your experience here. In other words they  will relate to the re-experiencing of all that you believe has shaped
T1:3.9 you would feel that you had not requested a bigger miracle. You  will almost feel panic at the thought of such a choice being put
T1:3.9 panic at the thought of such a choice being put before you. If you  will agree to choose a miracle at all, which many of you will balk at
T1:3.9 you. If you will agree to choose a miracle at all, which many of you  will balk at doing, you want to choose the “right” miracle. Some of
T1:3.9 otherwise about yourself. If you ask for a cure for a disease, how  will you know that this cure is a miracle and not the result of
T1:3.12 no idle request. Whatever is necessary to convince you now is what I  will provide. Such is the urgency of the time, the urgency for the
T1:3.14 hold this thought within your mind. What is needed to convince you  will be provided. Such is the urgency of your return to unity. If not
T1:3.14 is the urgency of your return to unity. If not now, then soon, you  will be asked to make this final choice, this choice to leave fear
T1:3.16 consider your objections to miracles one-by-one for in so doing we  will uncover the source of all your fears as well as the Source of
T1:3.17 First you  will say you have no objections to miracles, only to having them
T1:3.17 through you. Your lack of willingness to perform miracles, you  will say, stems from your unworthiness to perform miracles. Your
T1:3.23 Although many more fears might prevail upon you, we  will consider only one further fear, the fear of making the wrong
T1:4.2 the miracles that express the truth of who you are. This Treatise  will put your instruction fully under my guidance and allow you to
T1:4.10 Think of all you now feel responsible for and this lesson  will become more clear. While your first thoughts will automatically
T1:4.10 and this lesson will become more clear. While your first thoughts  will automatically go to a lengthy list of those concerns associated
T1:4.10 of those concerns associated with the survival of the body, they  will miss a whole aspect of concerns associated with keeping others
T1:4.14 Would not this kind of a creator be at odds with the concept of free  will?
T1:4.17 are an independent thinker, something you have prized. Some of you  will accept another’s interpretation of meaning if it is helpful to
T1:4.20 that is uniquely your own is as nothing compared to the joy that  will come to you from a response that is uniquely you. But you must
T1:4.20 interpretation before you can learn to respond. I realize that this  will concern you while you continue to not realize the difference
T1:4.21 stated, the first opportunities for you to learn the art of thought  will be provided through what we have called the re-experiencing of
T1:4.21 to re-experience the lessons your life has brought you. You  will experience the same lessons in the same way, rather than in a
T1:4.21 thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind. The art of thought  will reveal the truth to you. The thinking of the ego-mind would
T1:4.26 of this confusion sink in, for this is the reversal in thinking that  will pave the way for all the rest. Because of this confusion you
T1:4.27 has not been reconciled with your experience here. This is what we  will now seek to do by putting an end to fear and ushering in, with
T1:5.8 is real. Nothing is as real as everything, and is what some of you  will or have experienced as a “dark night of the soul.” To realize
T1:5.9 the heart where the real Self abides. There is nothing else that  will free who you are but freedom from the ego’s thought system. That
T1:5.9 of study and the reason, when you have freed your self, that you  will look back and see how easy this one choice really is.
T1:5.12 You must experience the reality of the new thought system or it  will remain forever theoretical. You must let go of the foundation of
T1:5.13 system by being willing to replace the old with the new. While this  will at first be a learned activity, and as such have its moments of
T1:5.13 it is learned only in the sense of practicing the mindfulness that  will allow the memory of it to return to you.
T1:5.14 different expressions of the union of mind and heart. Mindfulness  will aid you in remembering. Wholeheartedness will aid you in
T1:5.14 and heart. Mindfulness will aid you in remembering. Wholeheartedness  will aid you in reconciling the laws of God with the laws of man.
T1:5.14 the laws of God with the laws of man. Through mindfulness you  will remember who you are. Through wholeheartedness you will be who
T1:5.14 you will remember who you are. Through wholeheartedness you  will be who are.
T1:5.15 It is in this way that you  will enter a time of miracles, put an end to suffering, and thus
T1:6.1 truth is always present and can be neither learned nor unlearned. It  will thus be revealed to you as soon as the learned thought system
T1:6.2 How is this revelation to take place? It  will begin by learning the art of thought as the act of prayer. We
T1:6.9 of heaven through the second coming of Christ, the energy that  will bridge the two worlds.
T1:7.1 be, and the feeling of not being able to be accomplished or complete  will still be with you. Recall the many times you felt certain that a
T1:7.4 how effective they were and no matter how much they spoke the truth  will be to not learn the new.
T1:7.5 possible. If you do not let what you have attained serve you, you  will not realize what this new learning has been for. You may reach
T1:7.5 You may reach an ideal of human satisfaction and happiness, but you  will not go beyond what is human.
T1:8.1 the union of the human and the divine, the manifestation of the  Will of God. I have told you that you are no different than I was.
T1:8.2 the life.” What I was in life was the manifestation, in form, of the  Will of God. Thus too have you been. God is the giver of life, thus
T1:8.2 Thus too have you been. God is the giver of life, thus life is God’s  Will. But with my resurrection, which was accomplished for all, the
T1:8.5 Word incarnate upon my resurrection rather than upon my birth. This  will seem confusing given your definition of incarnation as the Word
T1:8.17 and mind. Lest you think that this union is not all-encompassing, we  will reflect a moment here on how the art of thought brings all you
T1:9.1 virgin or unaltered self. The practice of the art of thought is what  will complete the return begun through the coursework in A Course of
T1:9.1 the return begun through the coursework in A Course of Love. This  will bring about the union of the male and female, of conception and
T1:9.11 What  will it mean to bring about the union of the male and female, of
T1:9.11 of conception and action, of inspiration and manifestation? It  will mean union and a time of miracles. It will mean that you are the
T1:9.11 and manifestation? It will mean union and a time of miracles. It  will mean that you are the living Body of Christ.
T1:9.13 Lest you fight these ideas as stereotypical, I  will give just a few brief examples. These I ask you to cull from
T1:9.14 questions to answer as your initial reaction and your response  will likely have taken on different forms. You may for instance, have
T1:9.14 old pattern, or the pattern of the ego. What breaks the ego’s hold  will be the second reaction, or the turning away from the old.
T1:9.15 a sense of diminished self-esteem or worthiness. The first  will feel like an intellectual position. The second like a feeling
T1:9.15 Turning away from the intellectual position to one of feeling  will most readily and quickly solve the first. The second will be
T1:9.15 of feeling will most readily and quickly solve the first. The second  will be most readily and quickly overcome by a turn toward reason or
T1:9.15 by a turn toward reason or the intellect. The perceived attack  will have entered at the place where you have placed your highest
T1:9.15 protect and use that which you have most valued. Now your response  will have been changing. You will not see so much to value in what
T1:9.15 you have 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
T1:9.15 not see so much to value in what has called your ego into action and  will turn away from it.
T1:9.16 When the different attributes are merged, male and female  will be no more and wholeness will reign.
T1:9.16 attributes are merged, male and female will be no more and wholeness  will reign.
T1:10.1 center of your Self now and the issues that you choose to deal with  will not affect that core of peace at all. While you may find this
T1:10.1 core of peace at all. While you may find this almost disturbing, you  will not go to extremes to break this peace.
T1:10.2 have asked for it and it has been given to you. To not have it, you  will have to choose not to have it. And this will be tempting on
T1:10.2 To not have it, you will have to choose not to have it. And this  will be tempting on occasion. You will wonder at the lack of extremes
T1:10.2 to choose not to have it. And this will be tempting on occasion. You  will wonder at the lack of extremes in your feelings and want to
T1:10.2 lack of extremes in your feelings and want to bring them back. You  will experience this loss of extremes as a lack. You will think
T1:10.2 them back. You will experience this loss of extremes as a lack. You  will think something is wrong. You will feel this particularly when
T1:10.2 loss of extremes as a lack. You will think something is wrong. You  will feel this particularly when others around you experience
T1:10.2 A friend is experiencing feelings on an extreme level and this  will seem to tell you that this friend is really alive. Whether it be
T1:10.2 that this friend is really alive. Whether it be joy or sorrow, it  will seem real in a way that peace does not. It will seem so human
T1:10.2 be joy or sorrow, it will seem real in a way that peace does not. It  will seem so human that a wave of desire to be fully human will wash
T1:10.2 not. It will seem so human that a wave of desire to be fully human  will wash over you. You will think that this human who has caught
T1:10.2 that a wave of desire to be fully human will wash over you. You  will think that this human who has caught your attention is fully
T1:10.2 attention is fully engaged and fully experiencing the moment. You  will think this is what you want. And I say again that it will not
T1:10.2 You will think this is what you want. And I say again that it  will not matter whether it be joy or sorrow for you are, or have
T1:10.3 How often have you given yourself over to those highs and lows? You  will be tempted to give yourself over once again in this most human
T1:10.3 to give yourself over once again in this most human of ways. You  will cry and laugh for the poignancy of the human experience. This is
T1:10.3 the poignancy of the human experience. This is the known that you  will be tempted not to give up. If you can’t be moved from your peace
T1:10.3 the most profound sorrow or the most all-encompassing joy, you  will feel inhuman. You will think that this cannot be where you are
T1:10.3 sorrow or the most all-encompassing joy, you will feel inhuman. You  will think that this cannot be where you are meant to be, what you
T1:10.3 cannot be where you are meant to be, what you are meant to feel. You  will wonder what is wrong with you.
T1:10.4 is not a right or wrong choice but it is a choice. It is your free  will to continue to make this choice.
T1:10.5 You used your free  will to choose the human experience. Now are you willing to use it to
T1:10.5 to become accustomed to joy without sorrow? If you cannot, you  will continue to create hell as well as heaven and will continue the
T1:10.5 you cannot, you will continue to create hell as well as heaven and  will continue the separation between the divine and the human. Is
T1:10.7 would take peace from you. But as you have been told before, you  will be giving up nothing. It will seem as if it is so for a while
T1:10.7 But as you have been told before, you will be giving up nothing. It  will seem as if it is so for a while perhaps. You will continue to be
T1:10.7 up nothing. It will seem as if it is so for a while perhaps. You  will continue to be attracted to those living at the extremes and
T1:10.9 Each of you  will have an experience you look back on, an experience of profound
T1:10.9 or grief that also became an experience of profound learning. You  will think that you would not be who you are now without experiences
T1:10.9 not be who you are now without experiences such as this one. You  will think that I cannot possibly be asking you to give up these
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
T1:10.13 to attain. If you do not pause now and accept that it is here, you  will not know the Peace of God that is your own Self.
T2:1.1 not as yet recognize is going to be recognized. Once recognized it  will begin to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through
T2:1.1 to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through experience, it  will become your identity. We will begin by discussing the nature of
T2:1.1 And finally, through experience, it will become your identity. We  will begin by discussing the nature of treasure.
T2:1.3 value. As this Treatise is not concerned with material treasure, we  will not explore the dimensions of physical treasure except to say
T2:1.3 is capable of being a treasure or being treasured are of the ego. We  will instead assume that you have moved beyond these ego concerns and
T2:1.5 No matter how peaceful this place of rest may at first seem, it  will soon become stagnant and unsatisfying. Left in such a place
T2:1.9 performances in a magnificent concert hall or a little spinet that  will grace a living room and invite friends and family to gather
T2:1.11 to any thoughts you have had before. Your thoughts of a grand piano  will never create a grand piano. What kind of thoughts, then, would
T2:1.13 goal, such as that of music lessons or the purchase of a piano, you  will never reach the goals associated with those tangible steps.
T2:1.13 make an instrument unnecessary for a musician or mean that a painter  will not eventually put a brush to a canvas. But it does mean that
T2:1.14 This change in thinking in regards to treasures you do recognize  will pave the way for recognition of treasures you heretofore have
T2:2.7 to recognize the unseen and to imagine the existence of that which  will reveal its true nature and its joy.
T2:3.5 in the world as your Christ-Self rather than as your ego-self that  will aid you in expression. Without expression, the return to unity
T2:3.5 Without expression, the return to unity that has been accomplished  will not be realized.
T2:4.5 You  will almost literally continue to “bump in” to who you think you are
T2:4.19 your awareness of it grows, it is going to raise it to a level you  will come to think of as an ability. As your old way of responding to
T2:4.19 replaces 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
T2:5.1 request to make of you, as in a call to be a minister, nor that it  will come in but one form, as in a call to action. We have talked
T2:5.1 shone into the darkness and is revelatory in nature. Other calls  will come as announcements, signs, or even as seeming demands. All
T2:5.2 basic level, a means of communication. If you are not listening, you  will not hear the calls that are meant for you. If you are looking
T2:5.2 for you. If you are looking only for a specific type of call, you  will miss many unlearning and learning opportunities. Thus
T2:5.7 fully integrated the truth that giving and receiving are one, you  will not fully believe that needs are not lacks. Until you have fully
T2:5.7 fully integrated the truth that giving and receiving are one, you  will not realize that dependency is a matter of the interdependency
T2:5.7 Thus, all the calls that come to you in the form of signs or demands  will be calls that assist you in integrating this learning and making
T2:5.7 this learning and making it one with who you are. These lessons  will bring who you are into focus within your mind through the
T2:6.2 without the barriers of time you but place upon your thinking, you  will advance this process and more quickly bring about the end of the
T2:6.5 accomplishing anything without taking into account the time that it  will take? Relate this question to our discussion of treasure and you
T2:6.5 take? Relate this question to our discussion of treasure and you  will understand what it is of which I speak. You believe that your
T2:6.6 It is not an outcome but a certainty. It says I am rather than I  will be. I will be is a statement that presumes a future in which you
T2:6.6 an outcome but a certainty. It says I am rather than I will be. I  will be is a statement that presumes a future in which you will be
T2:6.6 be. I will be is a statement that presumes a future in which you  will be someone other than who you are in the present. Unity exists
T2:6.6 Unity exists only in the here and now of the present. There is no  will be in unity. There is only what is. Thus the limits you would
T2:6.10 you think you are, you can begin to see that this change in thinking  will release your heart, returning it to its natural realm. Thus does
T2:7.6 This source is the ego. Even now, the ego  will take every opportunity that arises to prove to you that
T2:7.6 that independence is a far better state than that of dependence. It  will work diligently to convince you that any course that tries to
T2:7.6 be resisted. As long as you continue to listen to your ego you  will not understand giving and receiving as one and will not believe
T2:7.6 to your ego you will not understand giving and receiving as one and  will not believe in it.
T2:7.7 into the living of your life. Each time another thwarts you, you  will be tempted to believe that giving and receiving as one is not
T2:7.7 as one is not taking place. Your previous pattern of behavior  will be quick to assert itself and you will feel resentment and claim
T2:7.7 previous pattern of behavior will be quick to assert itself and you  will feel resentment and claim that the situation is unfair. You will
T2:7.7 you will feel resentment and claim that the situation is unfair. You  will be tempted to withhold as others withhold from you.
T2:7.8 how important it is to living in peace that this pattern be broken?  Will you live in peace only until some “other” breaks your peace?
T2:7.10 much attention, the idea of the desire for change. Certainly there  will continue to be things within your life that are in need of
T2:7.10 for change. But once you have become happier with who you are, you  will, if left un-schooled, turn your attention to others and to
T2:7.10 and to situations you would have be different than they are. You  will want to be a change-agent. You will want to move into the world
T2:7.10 be different than they are. You will want to be a change-agent. You  will want to move into the world and be an active force within it.
T2:7.10 are aims consistent with the teachings of this Course, but what  will prevent you from following the patterns of old as you go out
T2:7.11 The only thing that  will prevent this is your ability to go out into the world and remain
T2:7.13 be of service. For as long as you believe in your independence you  will not accept your dependence. You will not accept giving and
T2:7.13 in your independence you will not accept your dependence. You  will not accept giving and receiving as one if you feel able only to
T2:7.14 and receiving as one. You believe, in other words, that your needs  will be provided for, thus ceasing to be needs. To deny that you are
T2:7.15 not only about choosing what good and helpful parts of yourself you  will share with the world. It is also about giving the world the
T2:7.15 that if you have a need for money or time or honesty or love, it  will be provided.
T2:7.16 as if an active stance toward trust would be distrustful. You thus  will often say that you trust when what you are doing is hoping for a
T2:7.21 While as stated previously, this belief  will at times seem difficult to put into practice, and while your
T2:7.21 you experience giving and receiving being one in truth, your belief  will become true conviction. Your ability to recognize giving and
T2:8.1 to be split by special relationships. While your love relationships  will provide a rich learning ground for you now, they must also now
T2:8.2 who you are within these relationships must be let go. All that  will complement who you are must be received. Thus the nature of many
T2:8.2 to change. Remember now that there is no loss but only gain, or you  will feel threatened by what you will imagine to be loss. Remember
T2:8.2 is no loss but only gain, or you will feel threatened by what you  will imagine to be loss. Remember too the practice of devotion for in
T2:8.3 to the goal of being who you are may at first seem selfish, it  will soon be revealed to be the most sincere form of relationship.
T2:8.3 of relationship. The calls that come to you now as signs and demands  will not only aid you in your realization of who you are and your
T2:8.3 of who you are and your ability to live as who you are, but  will aid all others. This is giving and receiving as one. What you
T2:8.3 aid all others. This is giving and receiving as one. What you gain  will take nothing from anyone. What another is able to give you will
T2:8.3 gain will take nothing from anyone. What another is able to give you  will take nothing from them, and what you are able to give another
T2:8.3 will take nothing from them, and what you are able to give another  will take nothing from you.
T2:8.5 that you know your own truth and an acceptance that that truth  will not change. As we have said that you are not called to a static
T2:8.6 onto the paths of seeking. The truth of yourself that you reveal now  will not become a new truth as you take a new path. Your path now is
T2:8.6 that would take you away from your true Self. Never again  will you be away from home for home is who you are, a “place” you
T2:8.7 How much time  will be saved by an end to empty seeking? You have already arrived
T2:8.7 arrived and need no time to journey any longer. How much time  will be saved by an end to the maintenance required by special
T2:9.3 aspect of treasure relates to your ability to let go. As many of you  will find the idea of letting go of special relationships among the
T2:9.8 already have as the already accomplished. All that you would give  will take nothing away from you.
T2:9.14 thinking has momentarily returned. This does not mean that you  will never be at rest or that you will be constantly seeking to
T2:9.14 This does not mean that you will never be at rest or that you  will be constantly seeking to arrive. As has already been said, you
T2:9.15 you are lacking. Once this perception has shifted, your ego-mind  will cease to be fed by these concerns. What is food for the ego-mind
T2:9.15 food for the ego-mind is fear and the removal of these final fears  will quite literally starve the ego-mind out of existence.
T2:9.16 An understanding of the mutuality of needs  will aid you in being honest about your needs, thus allowing them to
T2:9.16 and ongoing fulfillment is complete. Once this trust is realized you  will no longer think in terms of needs at all. Once you are no longer
T2:9.16 you are no longer concerned with needs and the meeting of needs you  will no longer be concerned with special relationships. You will
T2:9.16 you will no longer be concerned with special relationships. You  will realize that there is no loss but only gain involved in letting
T2:9.17 Holding on to what you think  will meet your needs is like holding your breath. Your breath cannot
T2:9.18 experience on which trust can grow. Once this trust is realized you  will no longer think of trust just as you will no longer think of
T2:9.18 this trust is realized you will no longer think of trust just as you  will no longer think of needs.
T2:9.19 Ceasing to think in these terms  will soon be seen as a valuable ability and a timesaving measure of
T2:9.19 of great magnitude. As these old ways of thinking leave you, you  will be left as who you are in truth.
T2:10.1 to turn the lessons of this Course into a tool, but many of you  will not tire of this work until you succeed. This is how truths
T2:10.4 is contained. The technology that has created super-computers  will immediately come to mind from this illustration. While this
T2:10.10 the universe. The learning you are in need of is the learning that  will call who you are back to your united mind and heart. This is the
T2:10.12 to learn in the same way that you have previously learned, you  will not learn because the “you” that will be involved in the
T2:10.12 have previously learned, you will not learn because the “you” that  will be involved in the learning process will not be the real you.
T2:10.12 because the “you” that will be involved in the learning process  will not be the real you.
T2:11.2 though you now have a much clearer understanding of who you are, you  will find living as who you are in the world difficult as long as you
T2:11.2 old rules, the laws of man rather than the laws of God or love. It  will seem all but impossible to live in relationship when those
T2:11.2 convinced of their separation and still seeking to glorify it. You  will still perceive of the world as operating under the laws of man
T2:11.2 of man and as long as you perceive of the world in such a way you  will be forced to live by its laws. This will cause struggle and, as
T2:11.2 the world in such a way you will be forced to live by its laws. This  will cause struggle and, as you now know that struggle of any kind
T2:11.2 that struggle of any kind alerts you to the presence of ego, you  will continue to do battle with the ego rather than leaving it
T2:11.4 the ego has been the known identity of your existence until now, it  will, in a sense, be forever with you, much as the body that is your
T2:11.4 in a sense, be forever with you, much as the body that is your form  will remain with you until your death. But while your perception of
T2:11.8 said, the ego, having been with you from your earliest remembering,  will continue to be with you, in the way that all learned behaviors
T2:11.10 this total reversal of thought concerning yourself and your world  will be difficult you are listening to your ego. The Christ in you
T2:11.15 the ego is real. As long as you believe that the ego is real, you  will feel as if there are two identities that exist within you and
T2:11.15 feel as if there are two identities that exist within you and you  will see yourself as doing battle in countless ways and forms. There
T2:11.15 will see yourself as doing battle in countless ways and forms. There  will never actually be a battle going on between Christ and the ego,
T2:11.15 actually be a battle going on between Christ and the ego, but you  will perceive that such battles exist. You will be prone to calling
T2:11.15 and the ego, but you will perceive that such battles exist. You  will be prone to calling upon the Christ as your higher self to
T2:11.15 world. This battle of good and evil, while you believe in it still,  will be demonstrated before you just as it has been from time
T2:11.16 replacement. As long as you hang on to both identities the world  will not change and you will not know who you are. You may think you
T2:11.16 as you hang on to both identities the world will not change and you  will not know who you are. You may think you know, and you may waste
T2:11.17 I have said that the ego  will remain with you as the identity you have learned since birth
T2:11.17 and wondering, if you have not yet replaced it, how this miracle  will come about. This replacement is indeed a miracle and the very
T2:12.3 here is the service I offer you, the precursor of the service you  will offer to others.
T2:12.4 As such they are agreements. They do not take away free  will but free the will to respond to truth. They are the ultimate
T2:12.4 they are agreements. They do not take away free will but free the  will to respond to truth. They are the ultimate acceptance of giving
T2:12.5 While you continue to feel as if you do not understand miracles, you  will be reluctant to believe in them or to see yourself as a miracle
T2:12.10 and water, light and air. The gardener knows that tending the garden  will help it to flourish and show its abundance. The gardener knows
T2:13.4 as a thinking being. Think not that I was different than you and you  will realize that we are truly one in being with our Father. As you
T2:13.4 forth in this Treatise. Know that, in the time of unity, the truth  will be shared by all.
T3:1.1 present to others. This is the only way in which the personal self  will continue to exist following the completion and the integration
T3:1.3 of the Self that you are is what we work toward in this Treatise and  will lead to true vision and to a new world.
T3:1.4 Thus, as your personal self becomes a representation of the truth it  will become who you are in truth.
T3:1.8 to others and that this is the only way in which the personal self  will now continue to exist. This statement implies and acknowledges
T3:1.8 While when joined with the truth, this representation  will be acknowledged as what it is and as the truth of who you are,
T3:1.10 To say that the personal self  will now exist only as the self you present to others is to say that
T3:1.10 as the self you present to others is to say that the personal self  will now cease to be seen as your reality.
T3:2.3 you have accepted in much the same way you have accepted your free  will as that which allows you to be separate from and independent of
T3:2.9 how much one might try to read meaning into the meaningless, it  will not be found there. The meaningless has no ability to change the
T3:2.13 quickly replaced with a new idea about yourself or its hold on you  will remain.
T3:3.2 “Love me in spite of these traits that are not loveable and then I  will know your love is true.” You make this same statement to
T3:3.9 continue to see the call of this Course as a call to goodness, you  will surely fail.
T3:4.1 own teacher is the only way to learn a new curriculum. This Course  will not call you to effort of any kind. It will not tell you to
T3:4.1 curriculum. This Course will not call you to effort of any kind. It  will not tell you to leave behind your addictions or to go on a diet
T3:4.1 you to leave behind your addictions or to go on a diet or a fast. It  will not even tell you to be kind. It does not tell you to be
T3:4.7 civilizations. But as we have said before, the only replacement that  will work is the replacement of illusion with the truth. The very
T3:4.8 I repeat, and  will do so again and again, that the ego-self is gone from you.
T3:4.8 things: to proceed toward love or fear. If you proceed with fear you  will assemble a new ego-self, an ego-self that perhaps will seem
T3:4.8 with fear you will assemble a new ego-self, an ego-self that perhaps  will seem superior to the old, but which will nonetheless still be an
T3:4.8 an ego-self that perhaps will seem superior to the old, but which  will nonetheless still be an ego-self. If you proceed with love, you
T3:4.8 will nonetheless still be an ego-self. If you proceed with love, you  will come to know your Christ-Self.
T3:5.8 in time, in time extending both forward and back. Each father’s son  will die. This means not what you have taken it to mean, an endless
T3:5.8 of generations passing. What this means is that in each the ego  will die and the Self be reborn to life eternal. Without rebirth of
T3:5.8 purpose cannot go unfulfilled. What this means is that the illusion  will be no more and truth will reign. Such is the reign of God.
T3:5.8 What this means is that the illusion will be no more and truth  will reign. Such is the reign of God.
T3:6.2 the meaning of life and death. But this is one of the key ideas that  will keep you from yourself and has much to do with your former
T3:6.4 must still be discussed. While bitterness remains, vengeance  will remain. You have been shown that God is not a God of vengeance
T3:6.5 bitterness is all that you have forced, through sheer strength of  will, to pierce the holiness of your hearts. Bitterness and the idea
T3:6.6 Bring bitterness no longer to the dwelling place of Christ and we  will seal the place of its entrance with the sweetness of love so
T3:6.6 place of its entrance with the sweetness of love so that bitterness  will be no more.
T3:8.1 now beyond representations to meaning so that what you represent  will move beyond representations to the truth. Realize here the
T3:8.2 forgotten this, despite the many repetitions of our aim, and you  will be more aware of your resistance and your need to let it go.
T3:8.3 thought system. As long as you carry this bitterness within you, you  will remain in the house of illusion for your feelings are as real to
T3:8.3 other than the truth remains real to you, your house of illusion  will remain a real structure, a structure that keeps you from the
T3:8.8 Why should you not be bitter when you and all of those you love  will surely suffer and eventually die? Why should you not be bitter
T3:8.8 bring about. While such a thought remains inconceivable to you it  will not come to be.
T3:8.9 the representation of the true Self within the House of Truth  will cause the creation of the new.
T3:9.1 idea that says that if you live from love and within love’s laws you  will create only love. It is an idea that accepts that this can be
T3:9.2 While you cannot now see the chain of events that  will make these ideas into a new reality, you can trust that they
T3:9.2 will make these ideas into a new reality, you can trust that they  will be there, spreading out like a web, much as the ego’s ideas of
T3:9.2 separation once did. Yet, as these ideas are not learned ideas, they  will not take time, as did the ego’s ideas, to spread through
T3:9.3 blocks of knowledge, as if learning a new alphabet. Yet you soon  will find that this new reality is known to you and requires no new
T3:9.3 new reality is known to you and requires no new learning at all. You  will be tempted, at first, to see things that are like unto those
T3:9.3 and call them what you called them once before. But here you  will find yourself gently corrected and when this correction is given
T3:9.3 find yourself gently corrected and when this correction is given you  will not doubt it but will remember that it is the truth you had
T3:9.3 and when this correction is given you will not doubt it but  will remember that it is the truth you had forgotten.
T3:9.4 You  will see that the house of illusion was just a structure built within
T3:9.4 benevolent embrace. No one stands beyond the embrace of love and you  will be glad to see that those who remain within the house of
T3:9.5 You  will be tempted, nonetheless, to re-enter the house of illusion, if
T3:9.5 hands of those you love and gently tug them through its doors. You  will be able to take note of the explosions happening within and will
T3:9.5 You will be able to take note of the explosions happening within and  will want to return to add your own to those going on inside,
T3:9.5 on inside, thinking that with the force of one more, maybe the walls  will finally come tumbling down and those inside be held within
T3:10.1 must realize that while meaninglessness exists within your mind, you  will be working still to replace it with meaning rather than allowing
T3:10.1 lessons needed in regard to the life of the body that you now  will let serve our cause of creating heaven on earth.
T3:10.4 Taking away the idea of placing blame  will change your thought processes beyond your wildest imagining. You
T3:10.4 change your thought processes beyond your wildest imagining. You  will be surprised at how many times you recognize blame where before
T3:10.5 easier if a replacement were offered, for ridding your mind of blame  will leave an empty space you will long to fill. This act of
T3:10.5 for ridding your mind of blame will leave an empty space you  will long to fill. This act of consciously choosing not to place
T3:10.5 long to fill. This act of consciously choosing not to place blame  will short-circuit the many thoughts that you would attach to this
T3:10.5 idea of blame. Although I offer it not as a replacement, what you  will find will come in the place of blame is an idea of acceptance of
T3:10.5 blame. Although I offer it not as a replacement, what you will find  will come in the place of blame is an idea of acceptance of what is,
T3:10.6 may come in forms that make them seem like lessons of old, they  will not be repeats of lessons that have come before. They will not
T3:10.6 old, they will not be repeats of lessons that have come before. They  will not be lessons that you find difficult or distressing if you
T3:10.7 reacted to every situation. Not one situation coming to you now  will be a repeat of the past. How can it be when the past was lived
T3:10.7 the simultaneous learning and unlearning that was spoken of earlier  will be able to be realized. You have passed through your time of
T3:10.8 Along with forgetting there is another practice that  will help you to become aware of this change. While much the same as
T3:10.8 to become aware of this change. While much the same as forgetting it  will seem to have a different process in practice. This is the
T3:10.8 rest, be forgotten. The process of forgetting these thought patterns  will be only slightly different from forgetting your former reactions
T3:10.9 distinct from the thoughts of your right mind or Christ-mind. This  will be easy because the thoughts of the ego-mind were always harsh
T3:10.9 and the thoughts that come from the voice of the Christ-mind  will be gentle. The thoughts of the ego-mind will come as disguises
T3:10.9 of the Christ-mind will be gentle. The thoughts of the ego-mind  will come as disguises to certainty. Given just a little practice,
T3:10.9 to certainty. Given just a little practice, these disguises  will be easily seen through and the uncertainty behind them revealed.
T3:10.9 the uncertainty behind them revealed. Thoughts of the Christ-mind  will hold a certainty that cannot be disguised. Remember that all
T3:10.10 You  will feel for a while as if constant certainty is impossible. This
T3:10.10 for a while as if constant certainty is impossible. This feeling  will remain only as long as you remember your past uncertainty.
T3:10.11 remind yourself that the time for uncertainty is past. Uncertainty  will not now come to teach you lessons you have already learned but
T3:10.11 will not now come to teach you lessons you have already learned but  will only visit you as an echo from the past. It is a habit, a
T3:10.11 old thought system. All you must do is not listen to it. Its voice  will not be gentle or full of love. Its voice will hold the
T3:10.11 to it. Its voice will not be gentle or full of love. Its voice  will hold the unmistakable edge of fear.
T3:10.12 Remember that, while gentle, these are and  will, be practical lessons that simply come to show you a new way of
T3:10.12 a new way of living, the way of living in the House of Truth. You  will not need to learn a foreign language to dwell in this new house,
T3:10.12 need to learn a foreign language to dwell in this new house, but you  will need to learn what will at first seem to you a foreign thought
T3:10.12 language to dwell in this new house, but you will need to learn what  will at first seem to you a foreign thought system. This thought
T3:10.12 is the thought system of unity. It is your true thought system and  will be easily remembered once you begin to let it automatically
T3:10.14 the ego thought system, the thought system of your true Self  will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon forget the
T3:10.14 of your true Self will quite simply return to your memory. You  will soon forget the thought system of the ego-self even though, when
T3:10.14 when encountering those who still use that thought system, you  will be able to communicate with them. Yet the ease with which you
T3:10.14 with them. Yet the ease with which you communicate with them  will diminish over time. You will find yourself continuously teaching
T3:10.14 with which you communicate with them will diminish over time. You  will find yourself continuously teaching the language, if you will,
T3:10.14 You will find yourself continuously teaching the language, if you  will, of the new thought system, for you will have no desire to
T3:10.14 the language, if you will, of the new thought system, for you  will have no desire to communicate with anything less.
T3:10.15 You  will find that your new language will gather people to you in much
T3:10.15 You will find that your new language  will gather people to you in much the way people will gravitate
T3:10.15 your new language will gather people to you in much the way people  will gravitate toward beautiful music. Many will be eager to learn
T3:10.15 in much the way people will gravitate toward beautiful music. Many  will be eager to learn what you have remembered because they will
T3:10.15 Many will be eager to learn what you have remembered because they  will realize that the memory of this language exists within them as
T3:10.15 that the memory of this language exists within them as well. It  will come naturally to you to welcome these back to the common
T3:10.15 to the common language of the mind and heart joined in unity. You  will desire more than anything for everyone you encounter to share
T3:10.15 you encounter to share this remembered language. Some, however,  will be resistant.
T3:10.16 practical lessons for the life of the body. They are lessons that  will soon be translated in another way. These lessons that will enter
T3:10.16 that will soon be translated in another way. These lessons that  will enter your mind and heart will, of necessity, need to be
T3:10.16 in another way. These lessons that will enter your mind and heart  will, of necessity, need to be translated into the language of the
T3:10.16 the language of the body as well. While your human form remains, you  will be dwelling among those in human form. While the house of
T3:10.16 those in human form. While the house of illusion still exists, you  will continue to encounter those who exist within it. While you
T3:10.16 continue to encounter those who exist in the house of illusion you  will continue to encounter temptations of the human experience. These
T3:10.16 to encounter temptations of the human experience. These are what we  will now address.
T3:11.10 Their reality does not exist. Believing in the reality of illusion  will never make it the truth.
T3:11.15 You  will, of course, continue to be aware that very few realize that they
T3:11.15 that very few realize that they exist in the House of Truth. You  will, in truth, for quite some time, be striving to remain aware even
T3:11.15 As the old continues to help you to learn lessons of the new you  will be seeing how the lessons of the illusion can be useful in a new
T3:11.16 righteousness. You are not right and others wrong. This temptation  will not long be with you for once the old thought system is
T3:11.16 is thoroughly translated to the new, such ideas as right and wrong  will be no more. It is only for this transitional phase, that this
T3:12.6 body. Temptations do not originate from love. While some temptations  will seem to be of love they are not.
T3:12.7 once slumbering mind that change on a grand scale awaits you, you  will grow fearful if you do not realize that what is being proposed
T3:12.7 means is that all that in this human experience has come of love  will be retained. All that will be lost is what has come of fear.
T3:12.7 in this human experience has come of love will be retained. All that  will be lost is what has come of fear.
T3:13.1 your identity, and our new purpose, that of the miracle that  will allow you to exist as who you are in human form, we may proceed
T3:13.2 While you may still feel a connection to God during such times, you  will not be dwelling within the peace of God. Your Self and God will
T3:13.2 you will not be dwelling within the peace of God. Your Self and God  will be but memories to you while your reality remains that of the
T3:13.2 experience of pain or of pleasure. You begin to fear that pleasure  will end or that pain will not end. Once fear has entered, doubt and
T3:13.2 of pleasure. You begin to fear that pleasure will end or that pain  will not end. Once fear has entered, doubt and guilt are never far
T3:13.3 These temptations  will concern you less and less as we uncover their true meaning by
T3:13.4 you the beginnings of a vision of a life in physical form that  will not include the very temptations we are beginning to lay out.
T3:13.4 between love and fear as cause is all that is important now as you  will create the new according to what you believe to be the truth and
T3:13.7 in concepts such as earning and paying. How you implement this idea  will be your choice. But the idea that you do not have to earn your
T3:13.7 way nor pay your way must be birthed and lived by. While most of you  will immediately think of your survival needs, this is far from the
T3:13.8 “I am safe and nothing that I do or do not do  will threaten my safety.”
T3:13.9 As you say these words you  will realize that you do believe in them. You believe, but you cannot
T3:13.10 begin by something as simple as choosing one thing a day that you  will change to reflect the fact that you have accepted this new idea.
T3:13.10 the fact that you have accepted this new idea. Choose an act that  will cause you no fear to begin with. For instance, you might tell
T3:13.10 that if I sleep as long as I feel I need to sleep in the morning, I  will awake refreshed and ready for my day and no dire consequences
T3:13.10 I will awake refreshed and ready for my day and no dire consequences  will befall me from this action.” Another act might be as simple as
T3:13.10 ordinarily would not spend, always with the idea in mind that this  will not affect your budget in any negative respect.
T3:13.11 If you remember that all of your ideas are to be based on love, you  will not fail to birth ideas of consequence.
T3:13.12 The second aspect of this lesson  will then be regarding your ideas about the consequences that seem 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.
T3:14.1 thought system of truth. While the foundation of fear, like the ego,  will have left you now, a pattern of behaving fearfully may still
T3:14.1 long as these patterns of fear remain as deterrents to action, you  will not experience the freedom of living from the new thought
T3:14.1 of living from the new thought system. The new thought system  will still exist within your mind and heart, as nothing can now take
T3:14.1 from you, but to experience the new thought system as thought alone  will not bring about the changes you would so desire to have come
T3:14.1 You may live a more peaceful and meaningful life, but you  will not become the savior I ask you to be, or the architects of the
T3:14.2 thought system of the ego into the thought system of the truth, you  will begin to believe in such things as benevolence and abundance.
T3:14.2 things as benevolence and abundance. What this means is that you  will slowly translate all ideas of scarcity into ideas of abundance,
T3:14.3 translation of the new thought system for the old is complete, this  will no longer happen. But the translation cannot be completed if you
T3:14.5 I am, however, the bringer of Good News. Now I  will repeat to you a piece of good news you may have forgotten: You
T3:14.5 You would not be other than who you are. This is a key idea that  will help you immeasurably in leaving behind patterns of behavior
T3:14.5 to 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
T3:14.5 take you, and for some great changes may surely await, but those who  will be visited by great change are but those who desire it. Yet even
T3:14.5 are but those who desire it. Yet even those who desire great change  will find these great changes will not cause them to be other than
T3:14.5 Yet even those who desire great change will find these great changes  will not cause them to be other than who they are. There is nothing
T3:14.6 As you see newly with the eyes of love, you  will be much more likely to see love everywhere within the life you
T3:14.6 you may be required to take, worry not! The changes that come to you  will be chosen changes. You will lose nothing you would keep.
T3:14.6 worry not! The changes that come to you will be chosen changes. You  will lose nothing you would keep.
T3:14.7 caused by perceived disrespect. It is only by your choice that you  will keep these things and only by your choice that these things will
T3:14.7 you will keep these things and only by your choice that these things  will leave you.
T3:14.8 It is only your old uncertainty that  will make you fear the matters of choice that lie before you. But
T3:14.8 old, and with it the patterns of behavior caused by fear, the new  will reveal to you all that you would keep and all that you would
T3:14.9 You  will clearly see all of the choices that throughout your life have
T3:14.9 in love and made of you a person you would not be other than. You  will also clearly see all of the choices that throughout your life
T3:14.11 your “sins.” While this is what you continue to choose, this is what  will continue to be evidenced in your world. This is the only act you
T3:14.13 Like a story yet to be written, that which follows the first page  will be based upon the first page.
T3:15.2 has concerned the occasions of birth and death. This is something we  will return to, but first let us look at other types of new
T3:15.5 a new beginning is possible, even while awaiting the lapse that  will surely prove to you that the new beginning is but an act and
T3:15.5 eager and confident in being able to succeed in the current year,  will continue to be plagued by memories of failure. The alcoholic can
T3:15.5 fresh memories of past abuse or humiliation in the hopes that they  will discourage a repeat of the old behavior. The loved one of an
T3:15.8 relationships too have breathed their last. As I said before, these  will seem to be remedial lessons. What they are, in truth, are aides
T3:15.8 they are, in truth, are aides to help you birth the new ideas that  will break the patterns of old.
T3:15.9 beginning that, like all others that you have offered or attempted,  will take place in relationship. The difference is that this new
T3:15.9 place in relationship. The difference is that this new beginning  will take place in holy, rather than special, relationship.
T3:15.13 That learning put an end to the old. Living what you have learned  will usher in the new.
T3:15.14 approach this new beginning as you have those of the past. What  will assist you most, as the translation of the old thought system
T3:15.17 same being that you have represented yourself to be in the past, you  will not be living by the truth but by illusion.
T3:15.18 of illusion with the truth is what the new thought system  will accomplish. Obviously, this replacement must be total. The means
T3:16.2 a plan and you do not need to know precisely what this new world  will look like. You simply need to be willing to live by the truth.
T3:16.5 acting as a trigger that would release all such impatience for what  will be. Impatience for what will be can only be satisfied by what is.
T3:16.5 release all such impatience for what will be. Impatience for what  will be can only be satisfied by what is.
T3:16.6 make it seem as if what is now is still awaiting replacement by what  will be, is a change that must occur within. As has already been
T3:16.8 who you are in truth is a temptation of the human experience. It  will come in many forms, all of which will be related to an old
T3:16.8 of the human experience. It will come in many forms, all of which  will be related to an old pattern of dissatisfaction with yourself.
T3:16.8 an old pattern of dissatisfaction with yourself. These temptations  will be related to the intrigue of the challenge and actually be
T3:16.8 Keeping this idea in the forefront of your mind and heart  will aid the translation of this aspect of the ego thought system to
T3:16.10 The belief in lack is a temptation of the human experience. This  will relate to all situations in which you feel you have something to
T3:16.10 you feel you have something to gain from some “other.” Again, this  will be related to old patterns of dissatisfaction with the self. It
T3:16.14 are temptations of the human experience. These temptations  will relate to any issues that you consider to be issues of
T3:16.15 If you but live by the idea that representing who you are in truth  will create a new heaven on earth, you can lay aside any fears that
T3:16.15 a new heaven on earth, you can lay aside any fears that others  will suffer due to the changes your new Self will create. As you live
T3:16.15 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 within
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
T3:16.15 will see that you have no need for special love relationships. You  will realize that the love and the Self you now have available to
T3:16.15 to share in relationship are all that you would share in truth. You  will recognize that no others have a need for you to make them
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
T3:16.16 upon each other. Let one part go and soon all the remaining parts  will crumble into the dust from which they came. The cement that was
T3:17.8 in the House of Truth rather than the house of illusion, is what  will end the time of illusion. Just as the truth is the truth and
T3:18.1 rightly then, how those who have not learned by the Holy Spirit  will learn. They will now learn through observation.
T3:18.1 how those who have not learned by the Holy Spirit will learn. They  will now learn through observation.
T3:18.2 that have been unwilling to accept or learn an unobservable truth,  will now accept and learn from observable truth. This is why you must
T3:18.3 it is a natural choice to serve our new purpose of the miracle that  will allow you to exist as who you are in human form. See what
T3:18.3 form. It is thus from observable form that the final learning  will take place. This is the perfect example of using what you have
T3:18.4 Expressing who you are in physical form  will return remembrance to the minds of those who observe your
T3:18.4 expression. Further, your observance of your brothers and sisters  will return remembrance to their minds and hearts. It is, in fact,
T3:18.6 rather than sadness—disease, poverty, conflict and sadness  will be no more real to your brothers and sisters than it is to you.
T3:18.8 It  will seem at first as if you are asked to deny the facts that you see
T3:18.9 In this way, you  will join the mechanisms of your physical form to the new thought
T3:18.9 the truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a neutral form that  will serve you in the manner in which you choose to have it serve
T3:18.9 by the thought system of illusion, it is natural to realize that it  will now be instructed by the thought system of the truth. Thus your
T3:18.9 now be instructed by the thought system of the truth. Thus your eyes  will learn to observe only the truth, even unto seeing what before
T3:19.1 You must not fear the changes that  will occur within your physical form as it begins to be guided by the
T3:19.1 system of the truth rather than the thought system of illusion. You  will fear these changes less if you realize that all that has come of
T3:19.1 these changes less if you realize that all that has come of love  will be kept and that all that has come of fear will fall away. You
T3:19.1 has come of love will be kept and that all that has come of fear  will fall away. You have no need to fear that the end of the special
T3:19.1 You 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
T3:19.1 You have no need to fear that the joys you have shared with others  will be no more. You have no more need to fear the loss of physical
T3:19.6 of the body have gone unquestioned and been held tantamount. The  will of the body to survive has thus been blamed for all actions that
T3:19.6 that have arisen from real and perceived lack. Yet the body has no  will and the survival of the true Self is not based upon it.
T3:19.7 Because the spiritual life has so often been linked with celibacy I  will mention sexual union specifically here to put behind you any
T3:19.10 body merely responded. The body’s response to the new thought system  will be different in many ways, none of which will lead you to feel
T3:19.10 the new thought system will be different in many ways, none of which  will lead you to feel that you have lost anything of value to you.
T3:19.11 others still remain tied to the old thought system, human behavior  will still reflect harmful actions that will seem to arise from
T3:19.11 system, human behavior will still reflect harmful actions that  will seem to arise from bodily temptations. Although you will now
T3:19.11 that will seem to arise from bodily temptations. Although you  will now represent who you are in physical form in a new way, you can
T3:19.11 of the meaningless acts of those living in illusion because they  will be unable to cause effect in the House of Truth.
T3:19.12 what it is. Just as we are telling you that new beliefs and ideas  will lead to a new reality, old beliefs and ideas led to the old
T3:19.12 old beliefs and ideas led to the old reality, a reality that  will still exist for some even after it changes completely for you.
T3:19.13 This  will seem even more inconsistent with a benevolent universe than it
T3:19.13 seen until it was represented in an observable manner, something you  will now do.
T3:19.14 and even rage-producing for those still living in illusion. But it  will be much more tempting to be divisive, uncomfortable and
T3:19.14 in the new. Many who observe the new from the house of illusion  will still be able to deny what they see. Just think of how many
T3:19.14 that it can no longer be denied that changes of a large scale  will begin to be seen.
T3:19.15 You  will be tempted to return to the house of illusion to gather those
T3:19.15 of Christ, a new time, a time without parallel or comparison, this  will not be possible. It has been said from the beginning that your
T3:19.15 not be possible. It has been said from the beginning that your role  will not be to evangelize or to be convincing. You cannot argue the
T3:19.16 While this would seem to leave some without hope, it  will leave no one without choice. It will make the one clear and only
T3:19.16 to leave some without hope, it will leave no one without choice. It  will make the one clear and only choice evident. It is a choice to
T3:19.16 be found to come to the truth. But a way of getting to the truth  will become so attractive that few will be able to resist. What will
T3:19.16 But a way of getting to the truth will become so attractive that few  will be able to resist. What will make this choice so attractive will
T3:19.16 will become so attractive that few will be able to resist. What  will make this choice so attractive will not be martyrs and saintly
T3:19.16 few will be able to resist. What will make this choice so attractive  will not be martyrs and saintly souls stricken with every calamity
T3:19.16 to tell those who would listen about the glory of God. What  will make this choice so attractive are ordinary people living
T3:20.1 no longer any time to be wasted on illusion we are saying that you  will no longer serve time but that time will serve you. Time was
T3:20.1 we are saying that you will no longer serve time but that time  will serve you. Time was wasted on illusion and so but seemed to
T3:20.1 no effects that exist in truth. Now, your every thought and action  will have effect, and the choices that lie before you will be choices
T3:20.1 and action will have effect, and the choices that lie before you  will be choices of where your thoughts and actions will have the
T3:20.1 lie before you will be choices of where your thoughts and actions  will have the greatest effect.
T3:20.3 learning the truth, you are learning how to live by the truth. This  will benefit you and in so doing benefit all others.
T3:20.8 You  will see it as quite difficult at first to respond to such situations
T3:20.13  Will those you love still suffer? Many may. But not with your help.
T3:20.13 Will those you love still suffer? Many may. But not with your help.  Will many more, with your help, see an end to suffering? Many will.
T3:20.13 help. Will many more, with your help, see an end to suffering? Many  will. Will an end to suffering be what you work toward? No. This is
T3:20.13 Will many more, with your help, see an end to suffering? Many will.  Will an end to suffering be what you work toward? No. This is not
T3:20.15 when I call you to offer the eternal to the eternal. The new way  will work wherever it finds willingness. You cannot call others to
T3:20.16 go out from love to love. It is not the words of your mouth that  will be heard or the language of your mind that will be responded to.
T3:20.16 of your mouth that will be heard or the language of your mind that  will be responded to. It is the love within your heart that will
T3:20.16 that will be responded to. It is the love within your heart that  will sound the call. And when it is heard, and your brother or sister
T3:20.17 these aren’t the ones given you to bring to love and trust that none  will remain forever lost to his or her own Self.
T3:20.18 You are as pioneers to this new world. Its mere existence  will attract others and each will find the price of admission is
T3:20.18 to this new world. Its mere existence will attract others and each  will find the price of admission is their willingness to leave the
T3:20.19 is not different but the same as every other circumstance you  will encounter. You will encounter truth or illusion and nothing else
T3:20.19 but the same as every other circumstance you will encounter. You  will encounter truth or illusion and nothing else for there is
T3:21.6 is a being born into time, a being whose existence began in time and  will end in time.
T3:21.9 This  will sound intolerant to you. It is a stance intolerant of illusion.
T3:21.14 aspects to your personal self: a historical aspect, an aspect we  will call self-image, and an aspect that has to do with beliefs.
T3:21.17 that you exist in unity, all the things we have enumerated above  will act to challenge these beliefs unless you are able to see them
T3:21.17 and a sex that divides you from those “opposite” you, unity  will seem like a belief only.
T3:21.18 your form and cease to be accepted as aspects of your identity. This  will cause your existence to seem to have more of a dualistic nature
T3:21.18 time the learning of this Treatise is complete, the personal self  will continue to exist only as the self you present to others. It
T3:21.18 will continue to exist only as the self you present to others. It  will be a representation only. It will represent only the truth. It
T3:21.18 the self you present to others. It will be a representation only. It  will represent only the truth. It will no longer be seen as your
T3:21.18 will be a representation only. It will represent only the truth. It  will no longer be seen as your identity, but as representing your
T3:21.19 your identity for our new purpose, the purpose of the miracle that  will allow you to exist as who you are in human form. How, you might
T3:21.20 The answer too  will seem contradictory, for the answer lies in realizing that your
T3:21.20 your former identity does not matter, even while realizing that it  will serve your new purpose. Further, there are even two aspects to
T3:21.20 is that your certainty regarding the identity of your personal self  will be useful as that certainty is translated to the thought system
T3:21.20 The second 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
T3:21.20 that you seem to have will be seen as sameness by some and  will attract them to you and to the truth you now will represent.
T3:21.20 by some and will attract them to you and to the truth you now  will represent.
T3:21.22 In other words, it  will matter not that there will be no priest or guru for those who
T3:21.22 In other words, it will matter not that there  will be no priest or guru for those who seek the truth to turn to. It
T3:21.22 be no priest or guru for those who seek the truth to turn to. It  will matter not that a black man will not turn to a white man or a
T3:21.22 who seek the truth to turn to. It will matter not that a black man  will not turn to a white man or a Muslim to a Christian. It will not
T3:21.22 man will not turn to a white man or a Muslim to a Christian. It  will not matter if a young person looks to one his or her own age or
T3:21.22 to one his or her own age or turns to someone older. And yet it  will matter that someone will look at you and see that you are not so
T3:21.22 age or turns to someone older. And yet it will matter that someone  will look at you and see that you are not so different than he or
T3:21.22 look at you and see that you are not so different than he or she. It  will matter that someone will look at you and be drawn to the truth
T3:21.22 you are not so different than he or she. It will matter that someone  will look at you and be drawn to the truth of him- or herself that is
T3:21.22 confident in your personal self, knowing that your personal self  will serve those you are meant to serve. What you have seen as your
T3:21.22 valuable as are your successes and strengths. What has separated you  will also unite you.
T3:21.23 It is not being said that anyone should, or  will, remain blind to the unity that exists beyond all barriers of
T3:21.23 and religion. It is simply being said that they do not matter. It  will not matter if a person turns to someone “like” him- or herself
T3:21.24 or who are better examples of a good and saintly life are those who  will lead the way for others to follow. Do not give in to the idea
T3:21.24 to represent the truth and to observance of the truth. That you each  will do this in ways unique to who you are must be further addressed
T3:22.1 enough. You would like to know in what direction living by the truth  will take you, for surely your life must change. The very precepts
T3:22.1 that the internal affects the external, seem as evidence that you  will no longer be allowed the “separate” life, or private life that
T3:22.2 work. Those who feel this call are surely needed. And each of you  will find the sharing of this Course to be among the easiest of ways
T3:22.2 to be among the easiest of ways to share what you have learned. You  will almost certainly feel eagerness to share it and joy whenever and
T3:22.2 and joy whenever and wherever you are able to do so. But some of you  will find that you do no more than mention this Course as the one, or
T3:22.3 always dreamt of doing. Wherever you go, whatever you do, the truth  will go with you. You need no uniform nor title nor specific role for
T3:22.4 accepting who you are and becoming who you want to be. This tension  will continue if you are unable to integrate two precepts of this
T3:22.7 to know the proper response. It is in responding properly that you  will know what to do.
T3:22.8 Plans  will only interfere with your response to what you are given to
T3:22.8 able to do with your eyes closed is the observation of what is. This  will relate to the future pattern of creating that we will speak of
T3:22.8 what is. This will relate to the future pattern of creating that we  will speak of more in the next Treatise.
T3:22.9 get on to the next level, the level of something new, the level that  will engage you in something “to do,” the level that will give an
T3:22.9 the level that will engage you in something “to do,” the level that  will give an outlet for the excitement that has been building within
T3:22.10 This has been necessary so that the realization  will come to you that you are ready to leave the personal self and
T3:22.11 The ability to cease all acts of comparison  will arise out of this observation of your new Self, for you cannot
T3:22.11 The truth that has always existed is our oneness, and what you  will observe about your new Self you will observe about all. We will
T3:22.11 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 comparison
T3:22.11 you will observe about your new Self you will observe about all. We  will be one body, one Self. No comparison will be possible. You will
T3:22.11 will observe about all. We will be one body, one Self. No comparison  will be possible. You will realize that differences but lie in
T3:22.11 We will be one body, one Self. No comparison will be possible. You  will realize that differences but lie in expression and
T3:22.12 the tension that exists between accepting what is and desiring what  will be. Linking the words creative and tension is caused by the
T3:22.12 lived, a world wherein a lag time exists between what is and what  will be. You may have, upon reading those words, thought that this
T3:22.12 to give up. You do not know how to reach beyond what was for what  will be without this tension. You do not yet believe in what is.
T3:22.13 dualistic world of illusion where here and now is separate from what  will be. In the new world, the world where truth reigns, there is no
T3:22.13 there is no world of illusion where what is, is separate from what  will be.
T3:22.14 and seals out the world where what is, is separated from what  will be by your effort and the time that it will take you to, through
T3:22.14 is separated from what will be by your effort and the time that it  will take you to, through your effort, create the desired outcome.
T3:22.14 you would have desired in the early stages of this Course, is the  Will of God. What you desire now is the Will of God because it is
T3:22.14 of this Course, is the Will of God. What you desire now is the  Will of God because it is your true desire, your will and God’s
T3:22.14 desire now is the Will of God because it is your true desire, your  will and God’s joined as one.
T3:22.16 creation, creating the personal self anew, seeing within it all that  will serve the new, and only what will serve the new.
T3:22.16 anew, seeing within it all that will serve the new, and only what  will serve the new.
T4:1.1 Let me tell you what this Treatise  will not be about. It will not be predictive. It will leave no one
T4:1.1 Let me tell you what this Treatise will not be about. It  will not be predictive. It will leave no one out. It will not appeal
T4:1.1 what this Treatise will not be about. It will not be predictive. It  will leave no one out. It will not appeal to fear nor give you cause
T4:1.1 be about. It will not be predictive. It will leave no one out. It  will not appeal to fear nor give you cause for fear. It will not be
T4:1.1 one out. It will not appeal to fear nor give you cause for fear. It  will not be about tools or tell you that some have the tools for
T4:1.1 some have the tools for accomplishment and that others do not. It  will continue the view from within the embrace, an embrace and a view
T4:1.2 It  will, however, be conclusive. It will separate truth from illusion in
T4:1.2 It will, however, be conclusive. It  will separate truth from illusion in ways that will make some
T4:1.2 be conclusive. It will separate truth from illusion in ways that  will make some uncomfortable. It will continue to challenge your
T4:1.2 truth from illusion in ways that will make some uncomfortable. It  will continue to challenge your former ideas and beliefs as have the
T4:1.2 your former ideas and beliefs as have the previous Treatises. But it  will do this only to reach a conclusion of certainty from which you
T4:1.3 In doing so, it may seem to you as if some  will be left out and as if you are being told that you can achieve
T4:1.3 have tried and failed to achieve. These are the types of ideas that  will cause discomfort to many of you as you still find it hard to
T4:1.3 in your own chosenness. It is this idea of being chosen that  will cause your mind to conclude that some are not chosen now and
T4:1.4 are but related to this idea of choosing, a process of the free  will with which you all are endowed.
T4:1.7 of learning, and if they do not learn what is taught in school, they  will, by default, learn what is not taught in school. If you can
T4:1.10 This curriculum is mandatory and so some have rebelled and  will rebel against it. Those who do not choose to learn from the
T4:1.10 against it. Those who do not choose to learn from the curriculum,  will, like school children, learn through what is not of the
T4:1.10 is what is being spoken of here. But all means are for one end. All  will learn the same content, for all are chosen; and all learning, no
T4:1.10 for all are chosen; and all learning, no matter what the means,  will eventually lead them to the truth of who they are.
T4:1.11 now and later. What you must understand is that all choices  will lead to knowledge of Self and God, as no choices are offered
T4:1.11 time, it must be seen that your choice matters in time, even if all  will make the same choice eventually.
T4:1.15 This confusion is what this Treatise  will seek to dispel so that you are left with no confusion and only
T4:1.15 are left with no confusion and only certainty. The only thing that  will dispel this confusion and bring you the certainty that is needed
T4:1.16 truth exists within you. It is in this way that time is not real and  will no longer be real to you as you come to live by the truth. It is
T4:1.25 the truth, thinking still that the experience of the truth  will exclude much that they would want to try before they give into
T4:1.26 Those born into the time of Christ  will settle for nothing less than the truth and will soon begin
T4:1.26 the time of Christ will settle for nothing less than the truth and  will soon begin looking earnestly for it. Even the ego-self will be
T4:1.26 and will soon begin looking earnestly for it. Even the ego-self  will be perceived clearly by these, and they will not want it for
T4:1.26 it. Even the ego-self will be perceived clearly by these, and they  will not want it for their identity but only will accept it until
T4:1.26 by these, and they will not want it for their identity but only  will accept it until another identity is offered.
T4:1.27 and contrast. But this also means that the great majority  will become aware of the new state of consciousness and that learning
T4:1.27 become aware of the new state of consciousness and that learning  will pass through them directly through observation and direct
T4:1.27 means that the last generation born into the time of the Holy Spirit  will live out their lives and that soon all who remain on earth will
T4:1.27 will live out their lives and that soon all who remain on earth  will be those born into the time of Christ.
T4:2.1 It is happening. It is not predictive. I have never been and  will never be predictive, for I am Christ-consciousness.
T4:2.1 what is, an awareness that does not conceive of such as what was and  will be can peacefully coexist with the unity that is here and now in
T4:2.6 The production that has so long occupied you  will now serve you as you turn your productive and reproductive
T4:2.7 not exist; that there are others living among you in this time who  will not become aware of their true nature does not mean that it does
T4:2.7 them. You are no more accomplished than anyone has been or is or  will be. The truth of who you are is as accomplished as the truth of
T4:2.7 is not speaking the truth. This is why we began with the chosen and  will return again and again to the statement that all are chosen.
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 unity. If you proceed into this new time thinking that this new time  will separate you from others, or cause you, as the chosen, to be
T4:2.10 you from others, or cause you, as the chosen, to be separate, you  will not become fully aware of the new time. Full awareness of the
T4:2.11 fly a plane or land on the moon, being first implies only that there  will be a second and a third. That attention and respect is given to
T4:2.12 “place” they briefly hold is of a finite nature, that others  will soon do the same, and that those who follow in time will do so
T4:2.12 that others will soon do the same, and that those who follow in time  will do so more easily, with less effort, and with even greater
T4:2.12 themselves “better than” for a moment in time, but those who do  will be bitterly disappointed as their moment passes. Despite the
T4:2.13 of the old. Many of these patterns do not concern me for they  will fall away of themselves as your awareness of the new grows. But
T4:2.13 as your awareness of the new grows. But these few that I linger on  will prevent your awareness of the new from growing, and so must be
T4:2.17 It is about observing what is. The power to observe what is is what  will keep you unified with your brothers and sisters rather than
T4:2.19 rather than in terms of what already is. This type of thinking  will not serve the new or allow you full awareness of the new.
T4:2.21 Now I tell you something else and hope you  will remember it and bid it true. Each day is a creation and holy
T4:2.25 It exists and you are becoming aware of its existence. You  will increasingly be unable to deny it and you will not want to. As
T4:2.25 of its existence. You will increasingly be unable to deny it and you  will not want to. As you allow awareness of this relationship to grow
T4:2.25 to. As you allow awareness of this relationship to grow in you, you  will learn the lessons that are being spoken of within this Treatise.
T4:2.27 of union, returned to you through the joining of mind and heart,  will now reveal to you the truth of what was created and allow you to
T4:2.29 self for so long that you cannot imagine what shared vision  will mean, and do not yet recognize it when you experience it. This
T4:2.29 of observance of what is as a game of make believe and feel that you  will have to trick yourself into believing that you see love where
T4:2.31 other senses in your idea of sight? Have you thought your instincts  will be sharpened and that you will know with an inner knowing that
T4:2.31 Have you thought your instincts will be sharpened and that you  will know with an inner knowing that will aid the sight of your eyes?
T4:2.31 will be sharpened and that you will know with an inner knowing that  will aid the sight of your eyes?
T4:2.32 is one of union and relationship, and purpose—purpose that  will be revealed to you because you exist in union with the Source
T4:3.3 —by its original nature or intent. The devotion of the observant  will return you to your original purpose. The vision of
T4:3.3 you to your original purpose. The vision of Christ-consciousness  will take you beyond it.
T4:3.7 no more weighing of love against fear. God did not create fear and  will not be judged by it. All judgment is the cause of fear and this
T4:3.8 state of love is returned to you, judgment falls away because vision  will arise. With the onset of the vision of love, many of you will
T4:3.8 vision will arise. With the onset of the vision of love, many of you  will make one final judgment in which you find everything to be good
T4:3.9 The vision that  will arise in you now is not new. It is your natural vision, the
T4:3.9 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. This is
T4:3.10 Vision  will allow you to see the nature of the world and all that exists
T4:3.10 nature of the world and all that exists within it truly. Observation  will allow you to elevate the personal self to its rightful place
T4:3.12 of the created becomes observable in physical form, physical form  will surpass what it once was and become the new nature of the
T4:4.13 If the unknown were not unknown faith would not be necessary. Faith  will become unnecessary, as life everlasting becomes known to you.
T4:4.14 This knowing  will come from the return of true vision. True vision sees
T4:4.14 has returned to you, the means of life-everlasting  will be understood as a choice. Because there was no relationship
T4:4.14 in form, the decision to continue in form or to not continue in form  will be yours.
T4:4.15 and thus eternal. If you can abide in unity while in human form, you  will have no cause, save your own choice, to leave human form. To
T4:4.15 is to abide in an unnatural state from which you eventually  will seek release.
T4:4.17 you not see the necessity of removing the idea that your true Self  will be returned to you only through death? What purpose would this
T4:4.18 What purpose  will death serve when your true Self has joined with your physical
T4:4.18 serve when your true Self has joined with your physical form? You  will see it simply as the transformation it has always been, the
T4:4.18 As form becomes a representation of Christ-consciousness, it  will take on the nature of Christ-consciousness, of which my life was
T4:4.18 of the human and the divine as a new state of being. This union  will take you beyond the goal of expressing your Self in form because
T4:4.18 of the human and the divine as a new state of being, this choice  will be eternally yours. It will be a choice of your creation, a
T4:4.18 as a new state of being, this choice will be eternally yours. It  will be a choice of your creation, a creation devoid of fear. It will
T4:4.18 It will be a choice of your creation, a creation devoid of fear. It  will be a new choice.
T4:5.8 the whole. You might say that your finger does not, then, have free  will. It cannot express itself independently of the whole.
T4:5.9 you think that this is possible and that this is the meaning of free  will. Free will does not make the impossible possible. It makes the
T4:5.9 this is possible and that this is the meaning of free will. Free  will does not make the impossible possible. It makes the possible
T4:5.9 It makes the possible probable. It is thus probable that you  will use your free will in order to be who you are. But it is not
T4:5.9 possible probable. It is thus probable that you will use your free  will in order to be who you are. But it is not guaranteed! It is your
T4:5.9 choice alone that is the only guarantee. This is the meaning of free  will.
T4:5.10 To align your  will with the Will of God is to make the choice for
T4:5.10 To align your will with the  Will of God is to make the choice for Christ-consciousness, to make
T4:5.11 given the chance now, to choose your true nature with your free  will.
T4:5.12 you 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
T4:5.12 in that revelation, transformed you. The direct revelations that  will come to you now will transform you as surely as did those that
T4:5.12 transformed you. The direct revelations that will come to you now  will transform you as surely as did those that came to so many others
T4:5.13 the glory that is yours, that determines the way in which your life  will continue. The same is true right now! For this is the time of
T4:6.3 Those who believe that only some  will be chosen can create a scenario in which it appears that some
T4:6.3 from one another and the one life-giving energy that unites us all  will but continue life as it has been but in different form. The
T4:6.3 form. The realization of unity is the binding realization that  will return all, as one body, to the natural state of
T4:6.4 direct sharing, the probable future you imagine, envision, desire,  will be what you create. This is the power of the devotion of the
T4:6.6 you to a new choice with the full realization that your choice alone  will affect millions of your brothers and sisters, as long as—and
T4:7.1 Christ-consciousness  will be temporary or sustainable depending on your ability to refrain
T4:7.1 envision, imagine, desire with love must be without judgment or it  will be false envisioning, false imagining, false desire. This simply
T4:7.1 is itself no cause for judgment. It is simply an alternative that  will draw you out of Christ-consciousness and not allow it to be
T4:7.2 That you are living in the time of Christ does not mean that you  will automatically realize Christ-consciousness, just as living in
T4:7.3 vision of Christ-consciousness must realize the many choices that  will seem to lie before you and your brothers and sisters in this
T4:7.3 of the unity that creates and sustains all living things  will now be as close to the surface of consciousness as was, during
T4:7.3 themselves spiritual and those who consider themselves pragmatists,  will hold this understanding within their grasp. Many will be
T4:7.3 pragmatists, will hold this understanding within their grasp. Many  will be surprised by experiences of unity and know not what to make
T4:7.3 know not what to make of them. Those who attempt to figure them out  will come ever closer to the truth by means of science, technology,
T4:7.3 and literature. Those who allow themselves to experience revelation  will enter Christ-consciousness.
T4:7.4 Those who sustain Christ-consciousness  will abide within it free of judgment. They will not seek to create
T4:7.4 Christ-consciousness will abide within it free of judgment. They  will not seek to create their version of a perfect world and to force
T4:7.4 their version of a perfect world and to force it upon others, but  will abide within the perfect world that is in the vision of
T4:7.4 that is in the vision of Christ-consciousness. This perfect world  will be observable to them and in them. It will be revealed to them
T4:7.4 This perfect world will be observable to them and in them. It  will be revealed to them and through them. It will be revealed to
T4:7.4 them and in them. It will be revealed to them and through them. It  will be revealed to them through what they can envision, imagine and
T4:7.4 what they can envision, imagine and desire without judgment. It  will not take the effort of their bodies, but the freedom of a
T4:7.5 to you through a heart and mind joined in unity, your body too  will exist or abide within this natural state. It cannot help to, as
T4:7.6 in union have brought harmony to your body. Sustaining this harmony  will keep your body in perfect health, even while the manner of this
T4:7.6 health, even while the manner of this perfection of your health  will remain one of many options.
T4:7.7 You  will realize that what is is optimal to your learning. But you will
T4:7.7 You will realize that what is is optimal to your learning. But you  will also realize that an end to your learning is in sight.
T4:7.7 health and learning the lesson that it has come to impart to you,  will return you to good health. Your poor health is no cause for
T4:7.8 But let me again emphasize that the conditions of learning  will be no longer needed once learning has occurred. The student no
T4:7.8 own choice. Again let me remind you that no choice is wrong. Some  will choose to continue to learn through the full variety of the
T4:7.8 choice due to the learning that has already occurred, the choice  will be one guided by love and thus be a joyous choice and ensure a
T4:7.8 and thus be a joyous choice and ensure a joyous life. These choices  will change the world.
T4:7.9 But the choice many of you  will make—the choice to move from learning to creating—will
T4:7.9 of you will make—the choice to move from learning to creating—  will create a new world.
T4:8.8 your heart and still live. What could be disconnected was your  will—or in other words, your mind. Just as it is your nature to
T4:8.10 Rarely. What you do is realize the impossibility of imposing your  will and, because of this impossibility, you realize that you must
T4:8.16 learning complete, is an error. If you rethink this definition you  will see that even in regards to the learning of one subject it is
T4:8.17 and that end is fast approaching. Coming to know through learning  will be of the past as soon as Christ-consciousness is sustainable
T4:9.9 of the new. Be not afraid, for the glory that has been yours  will be as nothing to the glory that awaits you in the creation of
T4:9.9 nothing to the glory that awaits you in the creation of the new. You  will always be honored for what you have done. But do you want this
T4:9.9 phase of the journey, the journey out of the time of learning that  will usher in the fullness of time.
T4:10.1 to be willing to give up the role of learner and to believe that you  will become comfortable and more in your new role as the accomplished.
T4:10.2 because as you consider your willingness to give up learning you  will meet resistance and realize, for perhaps the first time, that
T4:10.2 is what your entire life has been about. You cannot imagine how you  will come to know anything new, or be anything beyond that which you
T4:10.2 stray to ideas about experiencing, rather than studying, and yet you  will quickly see that you merely think of experience as learning
T4:10.10 the production of unity and relationship and true meaning  will be revealed.
T4:10.13 As I said earlier, some  will not be willing to move out of the time of learning. Those who
T4:10.13 this Course would teach but do not move beyond the state of learning  will change the world. They will make the world a better place and
T4:10.13 do not move beyond the state of learning will change the world. They  will make the world a better place and see many of their students
T4:10.14 Those of you willing to leave learning behind  will create the new. This will not happen through learning but
T4:10.14 of you willing to leave learning behind will create the new. This  will not happen through learning but through sharing. You can learn
T4:11.4 Thus I  will conclude this Treatise with a prelude to the sharing that is our
T4:11.4 is beyond learning. I conclude this Treatise by sharing that which  will assist you in sustaining Christ-consciousness.
T4:12.2 From this time on, I  will respond to you through direct communication or dialogue rather
T4:12.4 This prelude  will address them individually and collectively, and as you join with
T4:12.4 and collectively, and as you join with them in unity, you  will realize that it also addresses you individually and as part of
T4:12.4 and as part of the collectivity of the whole. This dialogue  will, however, be ongoing, and this is your invitation to participate
T4:12.4 heart, no matter what questions are emanating from your mind, they  will be met with a response.
T4:12.5 you. The first is the end of learning, the ramifications of which  will only slowly occur to your mind and be surprising revelations
T4:12.5 is the beginning of sharing in unity, a change that your heart  will gladly accept but that your mind, once again, will be
T4:12.5 that your heart will gladly accept but that your mind, once again,  will be continuously surprised to encounter.
T4:12.7 are sustainable without need of the written word, the written word  will be less necessary. In the meantime, let me explain why these
T4:12.9 Thus, if you have been religious, abandon not your churches, for you  will find within them now, direct experiences of sharing. If you have
T4:12.9 the written word, abandon not the written word, for the written word  will now elicit direct experiences of sharing. If you have enjoyed
T4:12.10 past. While you are still encountering concerns and questions, you  will be prone to continue to think of yourself as a learning being.
T4:12.10 dialogues continue to address these same questions and concerns, you  will be prone to think of them as teaching dialogues and to consider
T4:12.10 yourself thus is simply a condition of the old for which you  will need to be vigilant. You will be again surprised, however, to
T4:12.10 a condition of the old for which you will need to be vigilant. You  will be again surprised, however, to find what an enormous difference
T4:12.10 to find what an enormous difference the release of this idea  will make in your capacity to express who you are. As long as you
T4:12.10 express who you are. As long as you continue to invite learning, you  will continue to invite the conditions of learning. These are the
T4:12.10 of the separated self, which is why it is no longer needed. You  will not fully realize unity while you continue to hang on to this
T4:12.11 Another thing that you  will want to be vigilant of, dear brothers and sisters, is the
T4:12.12 for you not to exist in continual contentment. Continual contentment  will not stunt your growth or prevent you from sharing or from
T4:12.15 the joy of sharing and the new challenges of creating the new! This  will be joyous journeying and your challenges will be joyous
T4:12.15 creating the new! This will be joyous journeying and your challenges  will be joyous challenges!
T4:12.17 that you do not continue to advance learned wisdom. Learned wisdom  will tell you to work hard. Learned wisdom will tell you that the
T4:12.17 wisdom. Learned wisdom will tell you to work hard. Learned wisdom  will tell you that the strong survive, the mighty prevail, the weak
T4:12.19 you still have questions, dear brothers and sisters. I know that you  will experience times of not knowing how to proceed. I know that you
T4:12.19 will experience times of not knowing how to proceed. I know that you  will occasionally have setbacks and choose the conditions of learning
T4:12.20 the state of Christ-consciousness, the pattern of the old thoughts  will continue until they are replaced by a new pattern. That
T4:12.20 by a new pattern. That self-doubt arises in your thought patterns  will not mean that you have cause for self-doubt. You have no cause
T4:12.20 for self-doubt because you have no cause for fear. To dwell in fear  will end your ability to dwell within the love that is
T4:12.21 by the one mind and heart that you share in unity with God. You  will be the co-creator of the new pattern of consciousness that is
T4:12.26 What you cannot learn you can remember. What you cannot learn  will simply be known through sharing.
T4:12.27 It is the way in which you  will come to remember and share in unity that concerns you now and
T4:12.27 self. Part of this design and pattern was the freedom of free  will.
T4:12.28 Free  will continues in the pattern of Christ-consciousness. Love
T4:12.28 in relationship and unity rather than learning. What this means  will be revealed to you and shared by all who abide within
T4:12.30 What  will help you to remain doubt-free and thus fear-free and continually
T4:12.30 that reveal the design. This new design, and the new patterns that  will be helpful to you in its sustainability, are what must be
T4:12.31 of Christ-consciousness. Once you have adapted to this nature you  will realize that what is communicated through our dialogues and
T4:12.31 and sisters, is simply communication of what already is. This  will help you to adapt to the revelations that replace learning. This
T4:12.31 help you to adapt to the revelations that replace learning. This  will help you to adapt to the truth of a sharing you will have
T4:12.31 learning. This will help you to adapt to the truth of a sharing you  will have received even before it is communicated through the means
T4:12.31 it is communicated through the means to which you are accustomed. It  will help us together to establish the new patterns by which you and
T4:12.31 the new patterns by which you and those who come after you,  will more fully come to awareness of all they have inherited and all
T4:12.33 our lack of separation is part of the creation that is before us. It  will be mutually decided through the coming revelations and our
T4:12.34 Creation is a dialogue. Creation—which is God and us in unity—  will respond to our responses. Will respond to what we envision,
T4:12.34 —which is God and us in unity—will respond to our responses.  Will respond to what we envision, imagine and desire. Creation of the
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 former
T4:12.35 What  will the future hold? It is up to us dear brothers and sisters. It is
T4:12.35 relationship, the only guarantees that are known to us is that it  will be a future of love, a future without fear, a future with
D:1.5 cannot fail to be prepared, for you are already accomplished. What  will it now take for your mind to accept this truth? For the mind’s
D:1.13 Open your heart, for the one who dwells there in union with all  will emerge from this opening. What was once a tiny pinprick of light
D:1.15 are for everyone because we exist in unity with everyone. No one  will be forced to join our conversation. Only those listening will be
D:1.15 No one will be forced to join our conversation. Only those listening  will be ready to hear. Only those ready to hear will listen. Remember
D:1.15 Only those listening will be ready to hear. Only those ready to hear  will listen. Remember that you cannot be taught what unity would
D:1.16 nature of untruth remains only as an acceptance of insanity. What I  will help you now to do is to reject this insanity and to accept the
D:1.17 Self you have learned that you are. But further learning is not what  will complete the transformation of the personal self to the elevated
D:1.17 transformation of the personal self to the elevated Self. Learning  will not sustain Christ-consciousness.
D:1.18 So what is it that we  will now do? If I do not teach, and you do not learn, what is our
D:1.18 for completing this transformation? As you have been shown, this  will not occur by means of preparation but by means of acceptance.
D:1.18 not occur by means of preparation but by means of acceptance. This  will not occur by means of trying but by means of surrender.
D:1.22 continued learning and a continuing relationship with a teacher who  will guide you through the application of what you have learned. You
D:1.26 you 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
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
D:2.2 accept or receive the truth of who you are and the revelations that  will show you how to live as who you are within the world—and you
D:2.3 The patterns of the new  will begin to arise naturally when you deny the patterns of the old.
D:2.3 not what they do.” You must understand that you do know, and you  will know, as soon as the patterns of old have been denied. Denial is
D:2.4 design was perfect for the desired end, continuation of this pattern  will but interfere with your full acceptance of who you are in truth.
D:2.8 do not realize that you have learned all that you need to learn, you  will retain the consciousness of the separated self rather than
D:2.10 for you in the past. That they seemed to work is the illusion that  will give way as you deny yourself access to the old so that the new
D:2.11 If you  will examine this pattern of what you have believed “works for you,”
D:2.11 examine this pattern of what you have believed “works for you,” you  will find that you believe that each and every pattern will work in
D:2.11 for you,” you will find that you believe that each and every pattern  will work in one instance and not in another and that you make this
D:2.12 This  will not often prevent you from trying the same thing again although
D:2.12 prevent you from trying the same thing again although at times it  will. No matter what you try, however, it is based on this concept of
D:2.13 you learned ideas such as “when all else fails, plain old hard work  will see you through,” or that “safety is the absence of risk
D:2.19 no new learning or new systems based on the learning patterns of old  will work. Thus we begin anew.
D:2.20 “If the old way doesn’t work, teach me a new way.” You would say, “I  will work hard to learn and to implement the new if you will just
D:2.20 say, “I will work hard to learn and to implement the new if you  will just tell me what that new way is!” You would say, “Teach me the
D:2.20 that new way is!” You would say, “Teach me the new pattern and I  will put it into effect.”
D:2.23 agreement God asks of you, your part of the shared agreement that  will fulfill the promises of your inheritance. This is the Covenant
D:3.1 requires is the acceptance of the new and the denial of the old that  will allow for the sustainability of Christ-consciousness in form.
D:3.3 You are the ushers, the pioneers of the new. Your work, as  will be often repeated, is to accept the new, and deny or refuse to
D:3.3 the new, and deny or refuse to accept the old. Only in this way  will the new triumph over the old.
D:3.4 and triumph, words unusual to the body of this work but words that  will become usual in our normal conversation in this dialogue. I use
D:3.5 to your Self. In the same way, the mending of the rift of duality  will return the world to its Self. The mending of the rift of duality
D:3.5 and unity of Christ-consciousness. Sustaining Christ-consciousness  will accomplish the same thing in your world.
D:3.9 by the wholehearted self in union with all, are the ideas that  will allow new patterns to emerge and the design of the future to be
D:3.10 You  will notice that all of these ideas have in common a quality of
D:3.10 a quality of oneness. Oneness replaces duality or contrast. You  will be seeking now for replacements for that which formerly ordered
D:3.10 for replacements for that which formerly ordered your life. Thus we  will speak of these replacements.
D:3.15 mean to the elevated Self of form? Using this dialogue as an example  will serve to explain. This dialogue is continuous and ongoing. It is
D:3.17 This is why I  will often repeat that I am no longer your teacher. You must realize
D:3.17 as student. While you think of yourself as a learning being you  will still be looking to something or someone “other” than your Self
D:3.18 between the Self and the elevated Self of form. The Self was and  will always remain more than the body. The body, however, is also
D:3.19 birthed even though my Self was eternal. One of the major things we  will be seeing as we proceed is the difference between form and
D:3.19 and the difference in the way separate forms express content. It  will be challenging to become aware that different expressions do not
D:3.20 systems life-giving and life-supporting? The patterns of the new  will create only such life-giving and life-supporting systems—as
D:3.21 that this is just the first step revealed and that many of you  will feel already as if you are being asked to learn again and not
D:4.3 It is time now for this idea to be accepted, for if it is not, you  will remain in the prison you have created.
D:4.5 you remain incarcerated in a system that tells you when you  will awaken, how you will spend your day and when you will retire.
D:4.5 in a system that tells you when you will awaken, how you  will spend your day and when you will retire. You remain at the mercy
D:4.5 you when you will awaken, how you will spend your day and when you  will retire. You remain at the mercy of those who are incarcerated
D:4.6 when shape and form was given to what you fear and what you believe  will protect you.
D:4.8 is all any of you have known. An internally structured life  will quickly replace the life of the inmate if you will but let it do
D:4.8 structured life will quickly replace the life of the inmate if you  will but let it do so. Even those who actually are incarcerated in
D:4.13 Both of these divine patterns are being newly recreated and we  will talk much more of them and of the creative time we are now
D:4.18 new structure around the new pattern of acceptance, a structure that  will provide you with the home on Earth you have so long sought and
D:4.19 to follow in order to build the new—but as structure that  will provide you with parameters in which to begin to experience your
D:4.22 in which you cannot be fully yourself because of the security it  will provide, you are but tempted by a false security, and are called
D:4.26 proceed. But I tell you truthfully, your release is at hand and it  will come from your own authority and no place else. It is up to you
D:4.27 with yourself? That if you are unwilling to claim your freedom it  will not claim you?
D:4.30 Understand—this cannot be fearful. This cannot fail. This  will not bring suffering but will end suffering. Your part is to
D:4.30 be fearful. This cannot fail. This will not bring suffering but  will end suffering. Your part is to invite it and accept it when it
D:4.31 to the Covenant of the New, are one and the same, these reasons  will disappear. All the different reasons you would cite become what
D:4.31 cite 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

D:5.13 What was made of what was created in order to serve the ego  will cease to be, just as the ego has ceased to be. To outline and
D:5.15 ancient as the sea and stars, the elevated Self of form is new and  will create a new world.

D:5.20 not that your confusion will last, for with this thought reversal  will come your final release.
D:5.21 You  will soon wonder, if you haven’t already, just how it is going to be

D:5.21 to help you embrace the acceptance of this new time of no time. You  will wonder how to live in time as a being no longer bound by time.

D:6.2 the text of your coursework was that of comparison, a method that  will be used less and less as the time of learning passes. The
D:6.4 true Self is beginning to reveal itself to you in ways of which you  will become increasingly aware. As you identify more intimately with
D:6.5 seen in a new way. It is thus with new ideas about the body that we  will begin the final thought reversal that will allow you to live in
D:6.5 about the body that we will begin the final thought reversal that  will allow you to live in form as who you truly are.
D:6.11 longer living in an “if this, then that” world, then the same laws  will naturally not apply. You developed an “if this, then that” world
D:6.14 into the new with your old ideas about your body, the old body  will be what you carry into the new with you. So let us begin with a
D:6.14 in this time of revelation, discovery is the new divine pattern that  will replace the “thought” systems we have spoken of. To discover is
D:6.15 Creation of the new  will be predicated on the discovery of what you did not previously
D:6.15 on the discovery of what you did not previously know. This  will not happen if you cling to “known” truths. Revelation cannot
D:6.17 and the “new” as a world in which giving and receiving are one, you  will begin to see the enormity of the thought reversal that now
D:6.18 that if you take care of the body in certain ways, then good health  will result. You have been taught that if your body expends energy,
D:6.18 You have been taught that if your body expends energy, then it  will need the refueling provided by food or rest. The list could be
D:6.18 by food or rest. The list could be endless, but these examples  will suffice. These modes of behavior concerning the body were given
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
D:6.21 no longer need this type of learning device and to realize that it  will no longer serve you.
D:6.26 in time and outside of time. Remember, the elevated Self of form  will never be all that you are. This does not imply however, that
D:6.26 of shared consciousness. You are whole once again and your form  will merely represent one aspect of your wholeness in the field of
D:7.2 used because you were still, at that time, a learning being. Now we  will adjust our language somewhat to represent the new and restate
D:7.3 of form and unity. When Christ-consciousness is sustained, time  will collapse and the sun may not need to rise or set to separate day

D:7.24 to improve the fate of man. Everyone secretly fears that evolution  will not keep pace with the changing world and that man’s reign over
D:7.24 with the changing world and that man’s reign over his environment  will come to an abrupt and painful end. Some even fear an
D:7.26 you have learned to view your body in the field of time. This  will be helpful now as you begin to imagine the “more” that you are,

D:7.27 be aware of this circle of the Self as the All of Everything, and it  will, in fact, be helpful as we begin, to imagine on a smaller scale.
D:7.29 Thus we  will begin once again with parameters, with a territory of shared
D:7.29 than with consciousness of the All of Everything. This territory we  will call the territory of your conscious awareness. This territory
D:7.29 your body exists within the larger territory of the planet Earth. We  will begin here, with the territory of your conscious awareness,
D:7.29 of your conscious awareness, knowing that discovery and revelation  will expand this territory, and realizing that no matter how small
D:7.29 realizing that no matter how small this cosmic territory may be, it  will still at times give way to awareness of the All of Everything.
D:8.1 space, no particularity. It is an area of unlimited freedom. Yet we  will begin with parameters that make this area as imaginable to you
D:8.6 This idea  will aid you too in your understanding of discovery, as your natural

D:8.9 dialogues. As the mind opens and accepts the new, the art of thought  will become your new means of thinking. What has been learned will

D:11.6 Let me ask you a question. Do you think desire  will still be with you when you have achieved what you have desired?
D:11.6 desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a time in which desire  will no longer serve you, just as learning now no longer serves you?
D:11.6 in that state, fully accept that your contribution is being made,  will desire still be with you?
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:11.10 is the same as your desire to make your thoughts into answers that  will provide you with direction. As was said earlier, you dare not,
D:11.10 seek again for answers when this has been accepted. Because you  will know and fully accept that the answers lie within.
D:11.12 The giving and receiving of these words  will never make sense within the terms of the world you have always
D:11.12 within the terms of the world you have always known. No explanation  will ever be good enough for those who set limits upon the truth. But
D:11.12 disbelief, the answer to the giving and receiving of these words  will provide the answer to the question your thoughts cannot quite

D:12.9 distinction between thinking and thought. This distinction, while it  will not be consistent with your dictionary’s definition of these
D:12.9 shared with you in dialogue, but the thoughts. Thus this distinction  will suffice for our further discussion in this chapter.
D:12.10 come 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
D:12.12 comfortable with the idea that, released of old patterns, the self  will join with unity more and more frequently, until finally you will
D:12.12 will join with unity more and more frequently, until finally you  will sustain Christ consciousness and live in the world as the
D:12.13 One of the primary ideas that  will assist you in leaving patterns of thinking behind is the idea
D:12.14 of what the “thoughts” that come to you from unity may be like, you  will undoubtedly realize this: You have had such thoughts already,
D:12.16 has not yet occurred but that you are given the certainty to know  will occur. But once you have felt this certainty, you will never be
D:12.16 to know will occur. But once you have felt this certainty, you  will never be so sure again that you cannot know the truth. Adding
D:12.16 know the truth. Adding the phrase “beyond a shadow of a doubt”  will be something you no longer need add to your knowing of the truth
D:12.16 you no longer need add to your knowing of the truth because you  will realize its redundancy.
D:12.18 Some of you  will have credited your personal or individual self with the
D:12.18 individual self with the “figuring out” of this truth. Others of you  will have recognized the “voice” of authority with which this truth
D:13.1 There is no danger, in this time, that you  will know the truth and then discover that you were wrong. You know
D:13.1 of what you know. But this desire to proclaim what you know  will grow in you, and while you will not be “wrong” in what you know,
D:13.1 desire to proclaim what you know will grow in you, and while you  will not be “wrong” in what you know, you may have difficulty in
D:13.2 What you  will be coming to know in this new way of discovery will be coming to
D:13.2 What you will be coming to know in this new way of discovery  will be coming to you from the state of unity, from a state you share
D:13.2 two issues of great import contained within this statement, and we  will explore each separately.
D:13.3 The first is that what you  will be discovering, what you will be coming to know, will be coming
D:13.3 The first is that what you will be discovering, what you  will be coming to know, will be coming to you from the state of
D:13.3 that what you will be discovering, what you will be coming to know,  will be coming to you from the state of unity, which is a shared
D:13.3 from the state of unity, which is a shared state. Although what you  will be coming to know is already known to you, it will still come in
D:13.3 Although what you will be coming to know is already known to you, it  will still come in the form of a surprising discovery, a joyous
D:13.3 identity of the Self and all that lives along with you. This knowing  will, for a while yet, be surprising because it will be reversing the
D:13.3 you. This knowing will, for a while yet, be surprising because it  will be reversing the insanity of your life as you have known it thus
D:13.3 insanity of your life as you have known it thus far. These reversals  will be among the first revelations and will seem quite simple and
D:13.3 it thus far. These reversals will be among the first revelations and  will seem quite simple and pleasing as they enter your awareness, but
D:13.4 through the new means available to you within the state of unity  will still seem, at times, to need to be learned anew in daily
D:13.4 to need to be learned anew in daily living. This is knowing that  will often come in a flash, and is, in a sense, a humorous metaphor
D:13.4 another look at your Bible for many stories such as these, and you  will read account after account of people who did not know how to

D:13.5 and thus is whole. Therefore the knowing that will be coming to you  will be given in a state of wholeness. You have previously learned of
D:13.5 to know in wholeness, a way that is actually natural to you, it  will seem so foreign at times that you will feel “blinded” by the
D:13.5 actually natural to you, it will seem so foreign at times that you  will feel “blinded” by the light of knowing. You will realize that
D:13.5 at times that you will feel “blinded” by the light of knowing. You  will realize that you know something you did not know before in form,
D:13.5 know before in form, that it is important, monumental even; but you  will be unable to “see” this knowing, to envision it in the world of
D:13.6 You  will know that this knowing must be shared. And yet, you will not, at

D:13.6 attained a state of being able to sustain Christ consciousness, this  will no longer be a problem because you will constantly abide in
D:13.6 Christ consciousness, this will no longer be a problem because you  will constantly abide in awareness of the relationship of unity. But
D:13.6 of the relationship of unity. But until this state is achieved, you  will move in and out of states of awareness of the relationship of
D:13.7 This need not overly concern you as it  will not affect you as it did those of the past because you are
D:13.8 individuality, with separate thoughts, and with the idea that no one  will ever be able to truly know you. But join with others who are
D:13.8 experiencing the expanding awareness of the time of Christ, and you  will begin to see the evidence that things are different now. Join
D:13.8 to know through the state of unity, and the evidence to the contrary  will be overwhelming. You will begin to truly understand that you are
D:13.8 of unity, and the evidence to the contrary will be overwhelming. You  will begin to truly understand that you are not alone and separate,
D:13.9 relationship? Partial expression, yes. But that partial expression  will bear the mark of your perspective, and that is why partial truth
D:13.11 share or express the authority and truth you know it represents, you  will, by living according to what you know to be the truth, form the
D:13.11 you know to be the truth, form the very relationships and union that  will allow the truth to be shared. The relationship or union, in
D:14.2 Here it  will be helpful to keep in mind the idea of “as within, so without.”
D:14.4 to view your invulnerability as a testing ground against fate, you  will, to a certain extent, need to remember your invulnerability in
D:14.4 the discovery that lies beyond the body and mind, form and time. You  will need to put into practice the suspension of belief that was
D:14.4 practice the suspension of belief that was spoken of earlier. You  will need, in short, to set aside the known in order to discover the
D:14.5 by not worrying about it and allowing it to be and unfold as it  will?” Questions such as, “While I realize that the facts would tell
D:14.8 Your openness  will not only leave the way open for revelation but for cooperation.
D:14.13 not as yet recognize is going to be recognized. Once recognized it  will begin to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through
D:14.13 to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through experience, it  will become your identity.” That treasure is the new way of thought
D:14.17 and time. Becoming the elevated Self of form is becoming whole, and  will be the way in which source and cause transform body and mind,
D:15.1 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 there are
D:15.1 the patterns that were created for your time of learning and that  will be applied anew to the creation of new patterns for the new time
D:15.12 passes through you. Now is the time when the fruit of those efforts  will be reaped. For what passes through you now is a relationship
D:15.16 been prepared for this by the realization that your thinking mind  will no longer be necessary as your access to unity, or
D:15.18 something of value, and that you wish to take care of it so that it  will continue to be of service to you. Maintenance implies a certain
D:15.18 vigilance, and anticipation, the value of what you seek to maintain  will be lost. Thus we look at maintenance as the work, or
D:15.18 is possible in this time. You realize that some breaks in service  will still occur, that maintenance will not make the connection
D:15.18 that some breaks in service will still occur, that maintenance  will not make the connection perfect, but that it will keep it of
D:15.18 that maintenance will not make the connection perfect, but that it  will keep it of service to you.
D:15.19 to serve you. You thus must strive to maintain the conditions that  will allow it to do so. This is, as with all maintenance, a temporary
D:15.20 need to maintain conditions that allow it to be present. Maintenance  will lead to sustenance.
D:15.21 of all that is available within unity, or Christ-consciousness,  will no longer be needed. This will be as big a step as was the step
D:15.21 unity, or Christ-consciousness, will no longer be needed. This  will be as big a step as was the step that left behind the conditions
D:15.23 that when you return to the level ground from which you climbed, you  will be different as a result of having made your ascent. The hard

D:15.24 sustenance—for what you will have gained will never leave you but  will sustain you forevermore.
D:16.1 and expression come together into the recreation of wholeness that  will be expressed in the elevated Self of form.
D:16.4 of the condition of time. Once these principles are unified, time  will have ended just as time was once begun.
D:16.5 you move from the state of becoming to the state of being whole, you  will have moved through the act of creation and you will have become
D:16.5 being whole, you will have moved through the act of creation and you  will have become a creator. You will be ready for creation of the new.
D:16.5 through the act of creation and you will have become a creator. You  will be ready for creation of the new.
D:16.10 you are not yet whole. When you are whole, creation’s principles  will be what you do and what you are rather than what is happening to
D:16.13 promised you. This is the creation of the new you that you were told  will precede the creation of the new world. This is what is meant by
D:16.21 the time of learning to be replaced with the only replacement that  will sustain Christ-consciousness, the replacement of learning with
D:17.10 beyond the state of initiation. You are no longer hopeful for what  will come. Hope is desire accompanied by expectation. To expect is to
D:17.14 earlier, for they are even more pertinent now. Do you think desire  will still be with you when you have achieved what you have desired?
D:17.14 desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a time in which desire  will no longer serve you, just as learning now no longer serves you?
D:17.14 in that state, fully accept that your contribution is being made,  will desire still be with you?

D:Day1.3 but to an ascended state. Without your acceptance of who I am, you  will not fully accept who you are. Without your willingness to

D:Day1.26 You are living history. You are living what  will tomorrow be history. You are living creation. You are living
D:Day1.26 tomorrow be history. You are living creation. You are living what  will tomorrow be the story of creation. A chain of events is merely
D:Day1.26 of being into form and the movement of being beyond form. What  will be realized through the secret of succession is the elevation of
D:Day2.6 You continue to have a nagging feeling that this stone of regret  will always keep you anchored to the self you once were, that no
D:Day2.6 to the self you once were, that no matter how high you ascend, it  will continue to drag you back.
D:Day2.7 This is the feeling that  will prevent you from receiving the secret of succession. It is like
D:Day2.7 of succession. It is like the force of gravity, a feeling that you  will not be able to remain at this height long enough to benefit from
D:Day2.7 be able to remain at this height long enough to benefit from what  will be shared here.
D:Day2.15 to accept yourself. This unconditional acceptance is necessary. I  will give you one final example in order to make our discussion as
D:Day2.17 symbolic of the end of yours when so much suffering has continued. I  will add here the example of my resurrection. It is hard for you to
D:Day2.17 my time. It is difficult for you to believe that by following me you  will not walk in my footsteps. Perhaps you will be granted eternal
D:Day2.17 that by following me you will not walk in my footsteps. Perhaps you  will be granted eternal life, but not until you have suffered as I

D:Day2.23 and kill it. To say, here is what we will do with suffering. We  will take it away once and for all. We will crucify it upon the cross
D:Day2.23 we will do with suffering. We will take it away once and for all. We  will crucify it upon the cross of time and space, bury it, so that it
D:Day2.26 my life demonstrated but needs to be demonstrated anew. But this  will not happen if you cling to suffering. If you do not accept your
D:Day3.1 anger. We have already spoken of denial, albeit in a new way. Now we  will speak of anger, in both an old and a new way. Let me suggest to
D:Day3.4 painful ways—said “no” to learning through the heart. Many of you  will admit to growing a bit angry with the beginning of this Course
D:Day3.5 felt a great deal of this anger yet, but it is there, and here we  will discuss its function.
D:Day3.6 abundance. Feel your body’s reaction to this statement. Some of you  will feel excitement at the idea of this issue being finally
D:Day3.7 associated with mind. It is through your mind that these new ideas  will change your actions and your life, your mind that, through
D:Day3.7 actions and your life, your mind that, through increased stillness,  will give you more peace, your mind that will accept comfort of a
D:Day3.7 increased stillness, will give you more peace, your mind that  will accept comfort of a certain type, even extending to a new

D:Day3.19 to be greater than that of your brothers and sisters. A few of you  will not feel this, and if you are among those few, do not skip past

D:Day3.25 the ideas that taught you that you do not have enough, that you  will only have what you can earn or learn, that only through effort
D:Day3.25 will only have what you can earn or learn, that only through effort  will you gain, and that with your gain will come another’s loss. In

D:Day3.35 God. It is only in knowing God that the relationship of abundance  will be made clear to you and break forever the chains of want.
D:Day3.36 It is only in relationship with the God within that the way  will become clear.
D:Day3.40 you once sought through learning, or through the mind, other means  will open to you. You may see, audibly hear, and interact with what
D:Day3.45 side and determined to be the one who is right, the one whose side  will win. What you hope to win, in this insane argument about
D:Day3.49 Many of you  will have already entered this step, this step of considering how
D:Day3.50 have been promised. But many of your ideas and actions at this stage  will be tinged with the anger that came before it. Here is where you
D:Day3.58 just another word, another concept, another trick of the mind, you  will not see it as the replacement of learning, and as such as an
D:Day4.1 While we  will broaden the focus of today’s dialogue beyond that of money or
D:Day4.1 the focus of today’s dialogue beyond that of money or abundance, we  will still be addressing this area of your concern, as well as all
D:Day4.1 as you begin to move through the steps toward acceptance. Your anger  will be serving you here as it brings attention to these areas most
D:Day4.1 separate. Although my arguments were not fed by anger, your response  will almost surely have been tinged with it at times. Although my
D:Day4.1 were not fed by anger, the arguments that arise now for you  will be and as such are actually appropriate to this stage of our
D:Day4.2 with the realization that we are on the same side. The arguments we  will be having will be meant to show you this: That on one side are
D:Day4.2 that we are on the same side. The arguments we will be having  will be meant to show you this: That on one side are the temptations
D:Day4.2 another way of saying all that you have learned; on the other side  will be the truth, the new temptations that will incite you to leave
D:Day4.2 on the other side will be the truth, the new temptations that  will incite you to leave behind the temptations of the human
D:Day4.16 If you  will contemplate for a moment what you know about the example left by
D:Day4.16 for a moment what you know about the example left by my life, you  will almost surely realize fairly quickly that my life challenged the
D:Day4.31 I am imparting to you the key to abundance and all the treasure that  will come with the end of the time of learning. You, on the other
D:Day4.34 There is a similar type of focus that  will serve you now. It is not a tool, as is meditation, for you are
D:Day4.35 just a little beyond where it is comfortable going, that there you  will find this access, this portal to all that lies beyond time and
D:Day4.38 replaced by love. If you fear to go where the portal of access  will take you, you will not go. Thus your desire needs to be greater
D:Day4.38 If you fear to go where the portal of access will take you, you  will not go. Thus your desire needs to be greater than your fear.
D:Day4.39 are, then our purpose of being together here on this mountain top  will go unfulfilled.
D:Day4.44 full access has been revealed, what is yours is everything. But you  will be different.
D:Day4.46 choice for you, for you know exactly what it means. It means you  will be as I am. It means you will live from love rather than from
D:Day4.46 exactly what it means. It means you will be as I am. It means you  will live from love rather than from fear. It means that you will
D:Day4.46 you will live from love rather than from fear. It means that you  will demonstrate what living from love is. It means that you will
D:Day4.46 you will demonstrate what living from love is. It means that you  will resurrect to eternal life here and now. It means no turning
D:Day4.46 It means no longer trying to leave these things behind for they  will be gone. It will mean no longer striving. It will mean no
D:Day4.46 longer trying to leave these things behind for they will be gone. It  will mean no longer striving. It will mean no specialness. It will
D:Day4.46 behind for they will be gone. It will mean no longer striving. It  will mean no specialness. It will mean the individual is gone, and
D:Day4.46 It will mean no longer striving. It will mean no specialness. It  will mean the individual is gone, and the self of union all that
D:Day4.46 is gone, and the self of union all that continues to exist. It  will mean peace, certainty, safety, and joy with no price.
D:Day4.47 The old challenges, the old reasons for existing  will be gone. All that will be left to do will be the creation of a
D:Day4.47 old challenges, the old reasons for existing will be gone. All that  will be left to do will be the creation of a new world in the only
D:Day4.47 old reasons for existing will be gone. All that will be left to do  will be the creation of a new world in the only way that it can come
D:Day4.48 wholeheartedly, if you make this choice with wholehearted desire, it  will be done, and we will continue our dialogue so that you know more
D:Day4.48 make this choice with wholehearted desire, it will be done, and we  will continue our dialogue so that you know more of the difference
D:Day4.48 you have chosen. Once this difference is wholly known to you, we  will begin true discussion of creation of the new, for you will be
D:Day4.48 you, we will begin true discussion of creation of the new, for you  will be done with becoming.
D:Day4.49 your choice and have full realization of your access to unity. You  will be able, of course, to continue on without making this
D:Day4.49 to continue on without making this wholehearted choice, but you  will read only to learn and learning will not transform you. If you
D:Day4.49 wholehearted choice, but you will read only to learn and learning  will not transform you. If you do not truly and wholeheartedly desire
D:Day4.49 truly and wholeheartedly meet the condition of being fearless, you  will know this, and you will pass through the time of coming to
D:Day4.49 meet the condition of being fearless, you will know this, and you  will pass through the time of coming to acceptance again and again
D:Day4.52 but now you need to see their connection, for if you do not, you  will not realize that fear is all that needs to be left behind. You
D:Day4.52 will not realize that fear is all that needs to be left behind. You  will still think you have more to learn because you are angry,
D:Day4.53 you can move forward. If you can move forward without fear, you  will move forward only with love. If you move forward only with love,
D:Day4.53 move forward only with love. If you move forward only with love, you  will have realized there is nothing unacceptable about who you are
D:Day4.56 To truly experience relationship. It is from this beginning that you  will come to be as I am.
D:Day4.58 depression, or nostalgia for the way things were. These things  will not leave you before you leave them. But you will leave them.
D:Day4.58 were. These things will not leave you before you leave them. But you  will leave them.
D:Day4.59 Join me in this choice, and we  will leave behind the old and continue our movement toward creation
D:Day4.60 however. But one is needed to begin this movement. Followers  will naturally succeed the first although this will occur with no
D:Day4.60 movement. Followers will naturally succeed the first although this  will occur with no fanfare and no “one” to follow. The first will
D:Day4.60 this will occur with no fanfare and no “one” to follow. The first  will create a series. Thus will the secret of succession be returned
D:Day4.60 fanfare and no “one” to follow. The first will create a series. Thus  will the secret of succession be returned to you and put behind us
D:Day5.1 A point of access  will no longer be needed once full entry is attained, just as a key
D:Day5.1 once a door has been unlocked and passed through. Even though it  will not be permanently needed, however, this point of access will
D:Day5.1 it will not be permanently needed, however, this point of access  will remain crucial as long as you maintain rather than sustain the
D:Day5.1 rather than sustain the state of unity. This point of access  will thus now be discussed, both as an initial entry point and as a
D:Day5.2 For each of you this access point  will in truth be the same, but perhaps quite different in the action
D:Day5.9 Self rather than the pump that functions as part of your body, it  will be helpful to have identified this chosen access point for unity
D:Day5.10 is still fine-tuning to your understanding to be done, and this  will be done as you come to know what unity is, and so more fully
D:Day5.12 Access to unity  will seem, at first, a quite individual accomplishment, something one
D:Day5.14 Like love, unity has one source and many expressions. It  will be in your unique expression of union that your Self will come
D:Day5.14 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 able to
D:Day5.14 expression of union that your Self will come to wholeness and you  will be fully who you are and able to express love fully.
D:Day5.15 or “making real” of your accomplishment, and its expression,  will not look the same way twice. What you each desire from union
D:Day5.15 not look the same way twice. What you each desire from union most  will be what finds the greatest expression through you.
D:Day5.18 want to know the specifics of how this thing called access to unity  will work, you are also impatient with specifics. You want immediate
D:Day5.18 relief and an end to effort, not another lesson to learn that you  will be told is not a lesson. Not another cause for seeming effort in
D:Day5.19 order to understand the way in which that movement is achieved, you  will almost surely once again have doubts. Doubts are never more
D:Day5.22 No longer  will what enters you get stopped by layers of defenses. No longer
D:Day5.22 will what enters you get stopped by layers of defenses. No longer  will it meet the road-block of your thinking, your effort, your
D:Day5.22 While the ego is gone, effort remains, and while it remains, you  will not realize full access to what you are given. We are speaking
D:Day5.23 to the image of the healer that was discussed earlier. While many  will heal, all attempts to teach or learn “how to” heal must be
D:Day5.23 “how to” heal must be thwarted, for if not, the pattern of learning  will remain. This is why there have always seemed to be “secrets”
D:Day5.24 remain as what it is—untaught and unlearned. Each gain from unity  will only, in this way, be seen as the new givens come to replace
D:Day5.26 you are fully aware of this is when full access is attained. So we  will continue our work now in releasing you from those things that
D:Day6.1 We now  will discuss being the true Self while becoming the true Self—the
D:Day6.3 must address this time so that any confusion it seems to be causing  will not delay your progress.
D:Day6.4 between the creation of art and the work we are doing here, we  will return to this example. We have spoken of becoming as the time
D:Day6.7 or only late in its development. But at some point, the sharing  will take place, and the reactions of those with whom the music is
D:Day6.7 take place, and the reactions of those with whom the music is shared  will impact the artist and the piece. Positive reactions might
D:Day6.7 determined than ever to see the piece through to the point where it  will be appreciated. Finishing touches will be put on the piece. Some
D:Day6.7 through to the point where it will be appreciated. Finishing touches  will be put on the piece. Some collaboration might take place to get
D:Day6.8 piece, but determining to see the project through, knowing that it  will make the next piece or the next a better piece of music.
D:Day6.9 completed rhythm, lyrics without notes, or a completed work that  will qualify more as practice than as art, the piece exists. In each
D:Day6.9 and full, and true expression of the artist’s idea, however,  will it and the artist be one.
D:Day6.11 of becoming. You have committed to completion of the becoming that  will create oneness between Creator and created. You have developed
D:Day6.11 are being who you are right now and eliciting the expression that  will take you to the final stage of being who you will be in oneness.
D:Day6.11 expression that will take you to the final stage of being who you  will be in oneness.
D:Day6.12 You are not separate now from who you  will be when you reach completion! You are in and within the
D:Day6.13 in daily life—I want to acknowledge the difficulty some of you  will seem to be experiencing even while pointing out to you that life
D:Day6.15 rebel and find many reasons not to make it so. And so, abundance  will have to come first, lack of cause for worry will have to come
D:Day6.15 And so, abundance will have to come first, lack of cause for worry  will have to come first, an ability to focus on other than daily life
D:Day6.15 have to come first, an ability to focus on other than daily life  will have to come first. These are what these continuing dialogues
D:Day6.15 will have to come first. These are what these continuing dialogues  will facilitate.
D:Day6.16 They  will facilitate this by facilitating the acceptance of life as it is.
D:Day6.18 It also does not mean that many of you  will not have changed or will be changing the very fabric of your
D:Day6.18 It also does not mean that many of you will not have changed or  will be changing the very fabric of your daily life. Changes you feel
D:Day6.19 other way around. You cannot find a place outside of yourself that  will allow for the elevation of which we speak. There are no hallowed
D:Day6.19 of which we speak. There are no hallowed halls of learning that  will accomplish this. There is no mountain top in any location on
D:Day6.19 relationship we are developing in this elevated place within that  will bring to your full realization and manifestation without the
D:Day6.27 not creating new special relationships but the true devotion that  will replace special relationships forever.
D:Day6.30 time to wait while you learn, or think you learn, the qualities that  will allow this. This is the point of movement, being, and expression
D:Day6.31 life. Realize that this is just what we work toward! This difficulty  will pass through you as you allow for and accept where you are right
D:Day6.32 are not the conditions of the time of learning, and so you  will soon see that the difficulty of the time of learning truly is
D:Day6.33 us speak now of the conditions of the time of acceptance, for these  will cheer you.
D:Day7.6 and is life-generating rather than life-degenerating. Your bodies  will thus regenerate rather than degenerate. Love is, of course, not
D:Day7.6 attribute, but the effect of living from love rather than from fear  will have a major transformative effect on form in this time of
D:Day7.7 Another condition of the time of acceptance that  will be of great service to you now is that of the different
D:Day7.7 service to you now is that of the different relationship that you  will have with time. This is a time of convergence, intersection, and
D:Day7.7 you, as within, so without. As you let go of time’s hold on you, it  will let go of you. Time will seem to expand but will actually be
D:Day7.7 As you let go of time’s hold on you, it will let go of you. Time  will seem to expand but will actually be contracting into
D:Day7.7 hold on you, it will let go of you. Time will seem to expand but  will actually be contracting into nothingness. Time is replaced by
D:Day7.9 the time of learning. Thus it is the mind’s acceptance of love that  will lead the body to exhibit the effects of love in the time of
D:Day7.10 little world and created its own universe. The elevated Self of form  will expand into the world and create a new universe. This condition
D:Day7.13 conditions and your relationship with each of these new conditions  will become clear to you.
D:Day7.14 or access to union is of supreme importance, since all else  will come of this. However, this is not an “if this, then that”
D:Day7.14 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 natural to
D:Day7.15 Access to unity is a phrase that  will only be used in this in-between time. You have always existed in
D:Day7.15 You have always existed in unity and once this is fully realized you  will no more need access to unity than you need access to breathing.
D:Day7.15 more need access to unity than you need access to breathing. Unity  will be your natural state.
D:Day7.16 the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of learning,  will pass. There are no conditions in the state of union as there are
D:Day7.17 There  will be, however, a new stage following the time of acceptance in
D:Day7.17 following the time of acceptance in which the elevated Self of form  will be created and come into full manifestation.
D:Day7.20 The condition of the time of acceptance that  will most clearly reveal to you your status in regard to maintaining
D:Day7.20 status in regard to maintaining or sustaining your access to union  will be that of the replacement of doubt with certainty. Certainty is
D:Day7.21 sense of certainty that some of you may be experiencing. Thus these  will be the subject of our next dialogue.
D:Day8.2 it. Love yourself. Love yourself enough to accept yourself. Love  will transform normal, ordinary, life into extraordinary life. Loving
D:Day8.2 Loving exactly who you are and where you are in every moment is what  will cause the transformation that will end your desire to remove
D:Day8.2 you are in every moment is what will cause the transformation that  will end your desire to remove yourself from life. All those
D:Day8.6 your job, to assume that the conditions you did not like yesterday  will be the same today.
D:Day8.8 of the way you want to be but of the way you are now. There  will be many things within your life that will take some time to
D:Day8.8 the way you are now. There will be many things within your life that  will take some time to change, but many others that can change
D:Day8.8 that can change instantly through this radical acceptance. You  will find, once you have begun to practice acceptance of the present,
D:Day8.8 you have begun to practice acceptance of the present, that there  will be far fewer things you do not like, and that you will be shown,
D:Day8.8 that there will be far fewer things you do not like, and that you  will be shown, in the relationship you have in the present, the
D:Day8.9 do not like the gossip taking place in a present moment situation,  will enable you not to participate, judge, or appear to accept that
D:Day8.10 Not all situations  will seem as easy as this example. Acceptance does not require any
D:Day8.10 this example. Acceptance does not require any specific action but it  will lead to action that is consistent with who you are when you are
D:Day8.10 of who you are. Understand, however, that this eventual outcome  will never occur without the initial acceptance.
D:Day8.11 This acceptance is the only thing that  will truly prevent judgment, for it does not require you to be your
D:Day8.12  Will knowing your dislikes cause you to be intolerant? This is an
D:Day8.12 to others. Once acceptance of the Self begins to be practiced, you  will realize that the self of intolerance was the self of fear.
D:Day8.13 Remember that you have been told that your real Self  will be intolerant only of illusion and that this intolerance will
D:Day8.13 Self will be intolerant only of illusion and that this intolerance  will take the form of seeing only the truth rather than attempting to
D:Day8.13 —to the fear that feeds it, and beyond the fear to the love that  will dispel it. You are not called to walk away in disgust, showing
D:Day8.14 Even this type of seeing  will have remnants of righteousness attached to it if you do not
D:Day8.14 do not like it without accepting the feelings associated with it,  will make of it a mental construct, a rule you have set up for your
D:Day8.14 set up for your new self to follow. If this becomes the case, you  will find yourself adhering to a standard rather than acting from who
D:Day8.14 adhering to a standard rather than acting from who you are. You  will, in fact, have returned to judgment because you will have made a
D:Day8.14 you are. You will, in fact, have returned to judgment because you  will have made a predetermination, just as in saying you do not like
D:Day8.15 mental construct or rule that says you do not tolerate it, then you  will become intolerant. And because you will then act from a
D:Day8.15 do not tolerate it, then you will become intolerant. And because you  will then act from a predetermined standard rather than feeling the
D:Day8.15 the feelings associated with gossip in the present moment, you  will soon find that a bit of gossip will crop up in your own speech,
D:Day8.15 in the present moment, you will soon find that a bit of gossip  will crop up in your own speech, couched as something else, something
D:Day8.15 couched as something else, something even worse than gossip. You  will sigh, and reference something someone said or did that but shows
D:Day8.16 with the term or word certainty as it was used in the past, but you  will not want to confuse the term and the condition. You may think
D:Day8.16 away the type of certainty associated with the “term” of certainty  will cause you to be even less certain than you were before. You will
D:Day8.16 will cause you to be even less certain than you were before. You  will be less certain in your judgments and opinions, but this is
D:Day8.17 of yourself—in the present, as you are—for only by doing so  will you come to full acceptance of who you are and be able to allow
D:Day8.17 to merge with the self of form, thus elevating the self of form. You  will also, only in this way, come to true expression of the elevated
D:Day8.18 higher path to enlightenment. In denying your own feelings you  will tend also to deny the feelings of others. You will think that
D:Day8.18 own feelings you will tend also to deny the feelings of others. You  will think that you know the real from the unreal, truth from
D:Day8.18 that you know the real from the unreal, truth from illusion, and so  will disregard the feelings of others as if they do not matter. This
D:Day8.18 will disregard the feelings of others as if they do not matter. This  will only happen if you allow yourself to deny and thus become
D:Day8.19 of your own feelings, is not living in the present and  will create an attitude that will not be compassionate. This is why
D:Day8.19 is not living in the present and will create an attitude that  will not be compassionate. This is why we talk specifically here of
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 hurt,
D:Day8.21 realize that you no longer have cause to fear your feelings. They  will no longer be the source of the misdirection of the past if you
D:Day8.21 your feelings are of the truth. This is certainty. This is all that  will prevent you from “reacting” to feelings out of your previous
D:Day8.22 If anger arises in you now, it does not mean that you  will react in whatever way anger once called you to react and it does
D:Day8.24 It is about observing what is. The power to observe what is, is what  will keep you unified with your brothers and sisters rather than
D:Day8.26 in a state of non-acceptance and whatever peace you are feeling  will not last. Whatever access to unity you have experienced will not
D:Day8.26 feeling will not last. Whatever access to unity you have experienced  will not last because you will not be choosing the time of acceptance.
D:Day8.26 access to unity you have experienced will not last because you  will not be choosing the time of acceptance.
D:Day8.27 on unity when you are still in need of this full acceptance or you  will not reach the place of sustainability. Every situation and every
D:Day8.27 Every situation and every feeling that you do not like  will pull you from union toward separation. All feelings of
D:Day8.27 that which you do not like, or “how to” create a situation that you  will like. It is the bypassing of this “how to” function—a function
D:Day8.28 Realize how freeing it  will be to not go through the gyrations of attempting to figure out
D:Day8.28 “how to” reach acceptance of what you do not like! How freeing it  will be to realize you have no need to do this! How freeing it will
D:Day8.28 it will be to realize you have no need to do this! How freeing it  will be to accept all of your feelings and not to puzzle over which
D:Day9.1 from want, freedom from lack, freedom from repression, are what we  will now enjoy together on our mountain top retreat. We have not
D:Day9.4 reign, for it is your allowance, your choice, your permission, that  will make it so. The only one who can stop you now is yourself. The
D:Day9.5 We  will practice here to build your confidence, a confidence sorely
D:Day9.5 for the elevation of the self of form to take place. What good  will be the certainty of unity if the self of form has no confidence
D:Day9.17 How  will you ever realize, or make real, the Self you are when you strive
D:Day9.20 believe that we are proceeding to some predetermined ideal state, we  will not succeed in the work we are doing here together. For if you
D:Day9.20 in the work we are doing here together. For if you believe this, you  will not accept your Self as you are. If you do not accept your Self
D:Day9.20 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 not move from image
D:Day9.20 image to presence. If you do not move from image to presence you  will never realize your freedom. If you do not realize your freedom,
D:Day9.20 never realize your freedom. If you do not realize your freedom, you  will not realize your power.
D:Day9.23 this, however, your unique expression of your accomplishment  will not be realized.
D:Day9.30 Now we must return to you the freedom and the  will to fan the flames of your desire to be, and to express, who you
D:Day9.33 This pattern  will be easily replaced, however, as your acceptance of yourself as
D:Day9.33 to grow and to build your confidence. Unity and your access to unity  will be your certainty. Trust in your own abilities—the abilities
D:Day9.33 —the abilities of the self of form joined with the Self of union—  will be your confidence. Only these combined abilities will release
D:Day9.33 of union—will be your confidence. Only these combined abilities  will release your power.
D:Day10.3 I am giving you cause for movement, the effect of which  will be the movement from conviction to reliance.
D:Day10.5 self-confidence. These needs are tied to your feelings and thus we  will return to a discussion of feelings in connection with the ideas
D:Day10.6 Confidence in your feelings  will lead to confidence in your Self. While you think it is your
D:Day10.6 in your Self. While you think it is your access to unity that  will be the more difficult to achieve and sustain, this will not be
D:Day10.6 unity that will be the more difficult to achieve and sustain, this  will not be the case for most of you, for the simple reason that the
D:Day10.6 you, for the simple reason that the certainty that comes from union  will seem to come, at least initially, from a place other than the
D:Day10.6 to come from a place “other than” or beyond the self of form, you  will instinctively have greater trust in it. You will believe it
D:Day10.6 self of form, you will instinctively have greater trust in it. You  will believe it comes from a place “other than” or beyond the self of
D:Day10.10 feeling, but even so, it is your feelings about such thoughts that  will often determine how you act upon them. Do you trust in your
D:Day10.11 or insights and your distrust of this knowledge and insight  will need to be overcome.
D:Day10.14 your feelings or seeking outside assurances of what you know  will lead to either confidence or certainty is foolish.
D:Day10.15 equal, you still hold an image of me as “other than” yourself. You  will never fully rely upon your Self while you hold these images.
D:Day10.19 Thus I  will speak to you from this point onward as the voice of
D:Day10.20 is the same voice that animated the man Jesus two thousand years ago  will aide you in realizing that this is the voice that will now
D:Day10.20 years ago will aide you in realizing that this is the voice that  will now animate the elevated Self of form, or in other words, you.
D:Day10.21 as the voice of Christ-consciousness—as your own true Self—you  will not have lost Jesus as your companion and helpmate but will only
D:Day10.21 —you will not have lost Jesus as your companion and helpmate but  will only know more fully the content of the man Jesus. As you join
D:Day10.21 Jesus. As you join with Christ-consciousness in this dialogue, you  will realize you have not lost your Self but will only know more
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:Day10.23 I  will still be with you to point the way, but if you can cease to
D:Day10.23 sharing in relationship in which an exchange is taking place, you  will further your progress greatly.
D:Day10.24 as it may seem when presented in this way, is an exchange and  will only become more so as we proceed. I am not imparting wisdom
D:Day10.32 you are called, in unity, to respond to and with. But this response  will not be generated without the feelings that precede them! When
D:Day10.33 embrace your power. The power of love is the cause and effect that  will change the world by returning you, and all your brothers and
D:Day10.33 from within. It is the transformation that is caused within that  will affect the world without.
D:Day10.37 all these issues is fear. The cause and effect of love is all that  will replace these causes of fear with the means and end that will
D:Day10.37 that will replace these causes of fear with the means and end that  will transform them along with you. You are means and end. It is
D:Day10.37 power to be saviors of the world. It is from within that your power  will save the world.
D:Day10.38 your happiness, your peace, and your acceptance of the power that  will cause these things to come to be. Yet I know you and what you
D:Day10.38 your feelings in the way you might desire have worked. This  will work.
D:Day10.39 same tenderness for each other and the world. This is unity. This  will save us. This will save the world.
D:Day10.39 for each other and the world. This is unity. This will save us. This  will save the world.
D:Day12.2 surrounded, taken up, by consciousness. It is your feelings that now  will be the sense organs of this spaciousness. Not feelings of sight
D:Day12.6 self of form. Feel the love of the space that is you. All obstacles  will vanish.
D:Day12.8 Not all forms  will be met as obstacles. Forms are only as real as the perceiver
D:Day12.8 only as real as the perceiver perceives them to be. Thus your space  will effortlessly join with the space that is free and open to
D:Day14.1 wounded self. It is your acceptance that escape is not possible that  will lead you out of forgetfulness to remembrance. It is in the
D:Day14.13 it as you own the power that is yours. This one voice of the many  will continue to point the way for only a short time longer. Thus the
D:Day15.1 When you fully realize that sharing is necessary you  will have entered the dialogue. When you have fully surrendered to
D:Day15.1 surrendered to the fact that you can’t come to know on your own you  will have entered the dialogue. When you fully accept that the voice
D:Day15.1 that the voice of the one can be heard in the voice of the many you  will have entered the dialogue. When you fully realize that you are
D:Day15.1 that you are in-formed by everything and everyone in creation, you  will have entered the dialogue.
D:Day15.9 having your judgment alter natural cause and effect. This practice  will continue to serve you and will not be replaced, but supplemented
D:Day15.9 cause and effect. This practice will continue to serve you and  will not be replaced, but supplemented by the new practice of
D:Day15.11 reached by a much greater number. This greater level of neutrality  will not be reached until those who are the forerunners have
D:Day15.11 another as you move in and out of the state of Christ-consciousness  will not serve the purpose of creation.
D:Day15.13 or is it the challenge of moving with the current that you know  will be generated by the joining of spacious Selves? Do you fear your
D:Day15.14 here for. There is no time to waste and no protracted length of time  will be required if your willingness is true.
D:Day15.15 here to make one another known and in so doing to know oneness. It  will be less difficult to know this voice as the voice of oneness
D:Day15.16 them that Christ-consciousness is a form of “group think.” Never  will you feel more like an individual than when you are made known
D:Day15.20 initial, or practice stage of movement, it is obvious that movement  will always be needed for the clear pool to not become a stagnant
D:Day15.22 knowing that you have entered the dialogue does not mean that you  will not have an awareness of those who would infringe upon, rather
D:Day15.24 ability to carry an undivided but spacious consciousness with you  will be paramount and will have many practical as well as spiritual
D:Day15.24 undivided but spacious consciousness with you will be paramount and  will have many practical as well as spiritual applications.
D:Day15.26 dialogue as the spacious Self and are made known, your purpose here  will become more clear. Thus your ability to embrace all while
D:Day15.26 to embrace all while focusing on your own purpose in being here,  will begin a new process of individuation. The distinctness of your
D:Day15.26 a new process of individuation. The distinctness of your own path  will be made visible and you will see that it may be quite different
D:Day15.26 The distinctness of your own path will be made visible and you  will see that it may be quite different from the others with whom you
D:Day15.26 know, and perhaps quite different than you thought it would be. You  will be shown that you can enter the dialogue with all and still
D:Day15.27 of walking alone approaching, or a time of gathering with many. You  will realize that you have felt cocooned by the time on the mountain
D:Day16.7 your feelings, reflect who you are, and that by acting on them, you  will act in accord with who you are and thus in accord with the
D:Day16.11 time you predetermine, in advance of knowing, what something is or  will be. You predetermine, or decide, for instance, that a physical
D:Day16.11 for the better. Only when you accept that no feelings are bad  will you allow yourself to come to know what they truly are.
D:Day16.13 All that you predetermine you have come to know  will be cause only for suffering, arrogance, and righteousness if you
D:Day16.16 and the spacious Self embraces them with love, the spacious Self  will be whole, for it will embrace everything—as love, which is
D:Day16.16 embraces them with love, the spacious Self will be whole, for it  will embrace everything—as love, which is everything—embraces it.
D:Day17.10 know—which is Christ-consciousness—through individual choice or  will.
D:Day17.11 Christ-consciousness is your  will to know, to be, and to express. The time of Christ, and the
D:Day18.1 for the beginning of the fulfillment of the way of Mary. Many of you  will follow the way of Jesus to completion, beginning a stage of
D:Day18.1 of interaction with the world, an interaction with the miracles that  will aide in the dismantling of the old and with preparing the way
D:Day18.1 and with preparing the way for the birth of the new. Others of you  will follow your hearts to a bypassing of the final stage of the old
D:Day18.1 old and to anchoring the new within the web of reality. Still others  will participate in both, following their innate desire to facilitate
D:Day18.2 complementary and symbiotic. Together they return wholeness and  will bring about the completion of the time of Christ. This symbiotic
D:Day18.2 completion of the time of Christ. This symbiotic working together  will be essential for the birth of the new and in truth symbolizes it
D:Day18.4 well as sameness and of the necessity of each. It is a choice many  will be called to so that sameness is seen in difference, the one is
D:Day19.10 required to do in the sense of fulfilling a specific function that  will become manifest in the world, but are required to do in the
D:Day19.11 This is not to say that those called to the way of Jesus  will find acclaim and those called to the way of Mary will find
D:Day19.11 way of Jesus will find acclaim and those called to the way of Mary  will find obscurity. Many called to the way of Mary will “do” much
D:Day19.11 the way of Mary will find obscurity. Many called to the way of Mary  will “do” much that is greatly desired in the world but what they do
D:Day19.11 will “do” much that is greatly desired in the world but what they do  will be a byproduct of their way of being rather than a means of
D:Day19.11 a means of facilitating that way of being. Many of the way of Mary  will find acclaim, yet neither acclaim nor obscurity will matter to
D:Day19.11 the way of Mary will find acclaim, yet neither acclaim nor obscurity  will matter to those following these ways. Being true to the self and
D:Day19.11 and the calling of the One Self is all that matters. Eventually all  will follow the way of Mary and such ideas as acclaim and obscurity
D:Day19.11 will follow the way of Mary and such ideas as acclaim and obscurity  will be no more. But at this time of transition, both ways are needed
D:Day20.10 Apply the art of thought to this idea and you  will complete the first transition.
D:Day21.8 This  will seem like an incredible reversal and thus it is. This is the
D:Day21.8 an incredible reversal and thus it is. This is the reversal that  will make of you a creator. But it can only happen if you make the
D:Day21.10 transition and on the reversal of thought that it requires. Thus  will you carry this time forward with you into creation of the new.
D:Day22.3 from among everything, is allowed reception and expression. Some  will find many avenues of channeling available to them, both through
D:Day22.6 you put it into words, make it into images, tell it in a story? You  will feel as if you will burst if you cannot share the union that you
D:Day22.6 make it into images, tell it in a story? You will feel as if you  will burst if you cannot share the union that you touch when you
D:Day22.10 be made known through reception and expression. Call it what you  will for what you call it matters not. Throw out all the words that
D:Day23.3 task before us is to come to understanding of the means by which you  will carry what you have been given down from the mountain and onto
D:Day23.5 to the forces that move inside of you is surrendering to your own  will. It requires full acknowledgment that you hold within yourself a
D:Day23.5 It requires full acknowledgment that you hold within yourself a  will to know and to make known. This will is divine will, your will,
D:Day23.5 that you hold within yourself a will to know and to make known. This  will is divine will, your will, Christ-consciousness. It is alive
D:Day23.5 yourself a will to know and to make known. This will is divine  will, your will, Christ-consciousness. It is alive within you. All
D:Day23.5 a will to know and to make known. This will is divine will, your  will, Christ-consciousness. It is alive within you. All that is
D:Day23.5 is that you carry it with awareness, honor, willingness. From this  will the new be birthed.
D:Day24.4 your potential to be released, your true nature in all its wholeness  will be revealed.
D:Day24.8  Will activates potential. It is the greatest of all triggers. An
D:Day24.8 potential. It is the greatest of all triggers. An activated  will realizes that you are the carrier of all the potential that
D:Day24.8 you are the carrier of all the potential that exists. An activated  will releases the power that is potential. Remember potential is that
D:Day24.9 carry your potential to the place of its birth through an activated  will, a will that is also carried within you. This merging of will
D:Day24.9 potential to the place of its birth through an activated will, a  will that is also carried within you. This merging of will and
D:Day24.9 will, a will that is also carried within you. This merging of  will and potential is the birth of your power and the birth of the
D:Day25.1 Emptiness of mind  will now be something that may seem to plague many of you. Where once
D:Day25.2 stillness, however. As it envelopes you, there is a part of you that  will fight back. If there is nothing new to record, nothing new to
D:Day25.2 nothing new to learn, no new divine inspiration, a part of your mind  will attempt to create from this nothingness. Allow this to happen.
D:Day25.3 moment, crystal clear in the next. Let them all come. Your thoughts  will slip from the sublime to the mundane. Let them come.
D:Day25.4 new pattern of stillness combined with non-resistance that the new  will come.
D:Day25.7 except by your own hands. It cannot be sorted except by your own  will. I remind you not to attempt this as a task to which you apply
D:Day26.4 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 down
D:Day26.4 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 down from the mountain top
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 of
D:Day26.5 You can trust in your Self.  Will you? By tending your garden you will develop this trust and
D:Day26.5 You can trust in your Self. Will you? By tending your garden you  will develop this trust and prepare for your descent to level ground.
D:Day26.6 Your self-guidance can be thought of as an internal compass. It  will not necessarily know the answers as each answer is sought, but
D:Day26.6 the answers as each answer is sought, but if paid attention to, it  will show you the way to knowing.
D:Day27.2 were capable of. This certainty is beginning to form within you but  will not come into its fullness except through experience. This
D:Day27.5 This is the quality of the inner-sight you now  will carry with you to level ground because you have practiced during
D:Day27.7 and a mountain top perspective. Your descent from the mountain top  will not mean that you no longer have the perspective gained there.
D:Day27.8 you continue to practice your apprehension of this new situation, it  will become more than a concept. As was spoken of in “A Treatise on
D:Day27.8 of in “A Treatise on the Nature of Unity and Its Recognition”, it  will become a trusted ability and, through practice, lose its
D:Day27.8 In this same way, the dualistic seeming nature of all of life  will be revealed to only seem to be so.
D:Day27.15 and variability through experience. The elevated Self of form  will be the expression of new life lived within the constant of
D:Day27.16 what you are beginning to do through your practice. Your proficiency  will change your experience, and your experience will change the
D:Day27.16 Your proficiency will change your experience, and your experience  will change the world.
D:Day28.2 Most of you have experienced several stages of awareness, and we  will speak here of those experienced during the years of what is
D:Day28.2 age, or the age of reason. These have been discussed before so this  will be kept brief and illustrate only what is needed for our
D:Day28.6 level, some people reach a crossroad that feels like a choice that  will move their lives in such a different direction that it is both
D:Day28.6 career path. Many simply reach a state of reasonable comfort and  will make no choices that will effect that comfort level.
D:Day28.6 reach a state of reasonable comfort and will make no choices that  will effect that comfort level.
D:Day28.8 It is a choice so different and a means so revolutionary that it  will take some getting used to. This change is predicated on all the
D:Day28.13 on the circumstances of your life, one of these two attitudes  will have a reverse side that will have a greater hold on you. Your
D:Day28.13 your life, one of these two attitudes will have a reverse side that  will have a greater hold on you. Your life may have shown you that
D:Day28.14 If the attitude you  will have greater need of reversing is that of God determining the
D:Day28.15 people feel at least some combination of these two attitudes, but  will find that one is prevalent. You must now get past all such
D:Day28.18 is where the power of transformation lies. This transformation  will, however, take you beyond time, because once experience is moved
D:Day28.18 separation and into the realm of union or wholeness, new conditions  will apply. This is why it has been said that the changes that are to
D:Day28.20 “Time outside of time” by itself  will not cause the shift that needs to occur, however. What will
D:Day28.20 itself will not cause the shift that needs to occur, however. What  will create the shift is the ability to experience “time outside of
D:Day28.22 directed experience is to make the move into wholeness that  will cause the “shift of the ages,” the experience of variability
D:Day28.24 toward wholeness, all the pieces of all that we have talked about  will begin to fit together. A whole will form within your mind much
D:Day28.24 of all that we have talked about will begin to fit together. A whole  will form within your mind much as if you have been following a
D:Day28.24 been following a thread and now can see the tapestry. This tapestry  will bear the mark of your experiences and will be like no other. The
D:Day28.24 tapestry. This tapestry will bear the mark of your experiences and  will be like no other. The thread represents your own journey to
D:Day28.25 Separation is desired no longer, but experience is. Your  will and God’s are one and thus it is being made so.
D:Day28.26 threads together into the tapestry of your new life. This weaving  will take place as you continue to intertwine the two experiences
D:Day28.27 This is what we  will continue to speak of as we conclude this dialogue.
D:Day29.1 all that opposes wholeness into one level of experience, you  will be able to experience life from within the reality of wholeness
D:Day29.2 Your “self”  will no longer be divided into a spirit Self and a human self, living
D:Day29.3 to assist you in accomplishing the final joining, the joining that  will end duality and return you to wholeness—to who you truly are—
D:Day32.3 for if you retain any notions of God that are inaccurate, they  will arise here.
D:Day32.5 First we  will look at the concept of God as Supreme Being—God as one being,
D:Day32.5 might think of God creating. You might think of God granting free  will to His creations. Then, perhaps, you might think of God resting,
D:Day32.6 here or there, perhaps, but no, He has already granted free  will so He can’t do that? If the original purpose was knowing
D:Day32.8 a participatory being, but still falls short. Man lives and has free  will. Animals abide by the laws of nature. God is still a concept.
D:Day33.4 the heart of the new way of seeing yourself—a way of seeing that  will create a new world.
D:Day34.5 you—it is being fulfilled in you. As it is fulfilled in you, you  will create a new world—a world based on sameness rather than
D:Day34.7 If you do not make real your power, you  will experience yourself as powerless. If you experience your being
D:Day35.6 has been asked in this way in order to remind you that while you  will return to level ground, you will also retain the mountain top
D:Day35.6 order to remind you that while you will return to level ground, you  will also retain the mountain top experience. As was said before, the
D:Day35.6 top experience. As was said before, the mountain came to you. You  will thus always have the power to call upon the mountain top
D:Day35.6 top experience and the view of wholeness we have achieved here. You  will carry it within you, and when you feel not its power, you will
D:Day35.6 You will carry it within you, and when you feel not its power, you  will be able to call it forth simply by asking for it to be so.
D:Day35.8 to life is what has caused life to be as it has been, this shift  will cause life to be different, or in other words, new.
D:Day35.17 then the original creation must have occurred in this way. We  will not return to previous discussions of original creation, but it
D:Day35.18 you have made. Your life as you know it is what you have made. You  will only fully realize the difference between what you have made and
D:Day35.20 oneness of being and begin to create in unity and relationship, you  will do so by simply being who you are being, just as you have
D:Day35.21 and begun to make choices. While it has just been said that you  will create in unity and relationship much as you “created” during
D:Day35.21 during the separation, your creation in unity and relationship  will be free of choice. Creation in unity and relationship is
D:Day37.8 You keep striving for differentiation in a way that simply  will not work—through separation! And what’s more, you keep
D:Day37.11 Subtract any sum from another and you  will realize that subtraction results in a new number, a remainder,
D:Day39.34 What memory of I Am  will you carry with you now that you know that I Am is who I am and
D:Day39.39 into direct relationship with me on your own and of your own free  will.
D:Day39.44 You  will realize as you enter union by means of the bridge of our direct
D:Day39.44 union by means of the bridge of our direct relationship that you  will not leave your humanity behind. You will realize that as you
D:Day39.44 relationship that you will not leave your humanity behind. You  will realize that as you enter union by means of the bridge of our
D:Day39.44 union by means of the bridge of our direct relationship that you  will no longer see me as an inhuman God. You will know I am as human
D:Day39.44 relationship that you will no longer see me as an inhuman God. You  will know I am as human as are you and that you are as godly as am I.
D:Day39.46 You  will realize as you enter union that the tension of opposites is the
D:Day39.46 to your brothers and sisters. They are your bridge to yourself. You  will also be the bridge between war and peace, sadness and joy, evil
D:Day39.46 and peace, sadness and joy, evil and good, sickness and health. You  will turn anger to gladness, tears to laughter, and replace weariness
D:Day39.46 tears to laughter, and replace weariness with rest. But you  will still know all of these. You will know the All of Everything and
D:Day39.46 weariness with rest. But you will still know all of these. You  will know the All of Everything and the emptiness of nothing and our
D:Day39.46 All of Everything and the emptiness of nothing and our relationship  will bridge the distance and become cause and effect, means and end.
D:Day39.47 You  will realize that as we individuate we are in a constant state of
D:Day40.9 since the beginning of time. It is creation in the making. What  will be created now, and the individuation that will occur now, will
D:Day40.9 in the making. What will be created now, and the individuation that  will occur now, will hold all the power of your experience as well as
D:Day40.9 What will be created now, and the individuation that will occur now,  will hold all the power of your experience as well as all the power
D:Day40.9 experience as well as all the power of your longing for return. This  will be a great power that you carry within you as you return to love
D:Day40.32 spoken to me, and I have responded. Love has responded. How, now,  will you respond to love?
D:Day40.33 When you turn the last page,  will you cry tears of sadness that our dialogue is complete, that you
D:Day40.33 you cry tears of sadness that our dialogue is complete, that you  will hear my voice no more? Or will you brave your own relationship
D:Day40.33 our dialogue is complete, that you will hear my voice no more? Or  will you brave your own relationship with me? Will you turn to your
D:Day40.33 my voice no more? Or will you brave your own relationship with me?  Will you turn to your brother and hear my voice in him? Will you be
D:Day40.33 with me? Will you turn to your brother and hear my voice in him?  Will you be my voice as you turn to your sister? Will you carry the
D:Day40.33 my voice in him? Will you be my voice as you turn to your sister?  Will you carry the fullness of our relationship within you? Will you
D:Day40.33 sister? Will you carry the fullness of our relationship within you?  Will you be one with me, and in being one with me never feel alone
D:Day40.33 you be one with me, and in being one with me never feel alone again?  Will you let the emptiness of separation leave you once and for all?
D:Day40.34  Will you continue this dialogue with me and with each other? Will you
D:Day40.34 Will you continue this dialogue with me and with each other?  Will you carry it with you to level ground—to the place of
D:Day40.35  Will you be the relationship that returns love to all who share this
E.1 Ah, imagine now what it  will be like to have nothing left to learn, nothing left to become.
E.1 able to forget all ideas of self-improvement, imagine how much time  will be saved by this quest coming to an end. But what now will you
E.1 much time will be saved by this quest coming to an end. But what now  will you do? What now will you be?

E.2 Believe it or not, you  will find these questions arise less and less until soon, and very
E.2 these questions arise less and less until soon, and very soon, they  will be entirely gone, never to be asked again. Why? Because now that
E.2 you are being who you are in unity and relationship, these questions  will make no sense to you. They already have far less power. Can you
E.2 choosing to have them gone from you. This is the only choice you  will still have to make—the choice to leave behind the old in order
E.3 You are in relationship now only with love, and so nothing  will be hard for you. Desire an old pattern to be gone and it will be
E.3 will be hard for you. Desire an old pattern to be gone and it  will be gone. This little note added to the end of our mountain top
E.3 time together is only here to help you realize and accept that this  will be so. Do not expect difficulties and they will not arise.
E.3 and accept that this will be so. Do not expect difficulties and they  will not arise.
E.4 You have returned to your true nature. Perhaps you  will remember that within A Course of Love you were once asked to
E.5 Self, and as you begin to move more fully back into your life, you  will realize where the differences between this natural Self and your
E.5 differences between this natural Self and your former self lie. You  will realize that you know what to do. You will realize that there is
E.5 your former self lie. You will realize that you know what to do. You  will realize that there is no “will be.” That you are and that you
E.5 will realize that there is no “will be.” That you are and that you  will respond as easily to your surroundings as does the cheetah to
E.6 Expect heaven on earth you were told. This is what it is. There  will be no doubt, no indecision. Your path will be so clear to you it

E.7 There is no becoming. As you are no longer becoming there  will be no becoming projected from you onto the world. There will be
E.7 there will be no becoming projected from you onto the world. There  will be no projections at all and this is why you will see so

E.10 this joy being selfish for there is no such thing in unity. You  will share your joy continuously just by sharing yourself.
E.11 You  will not realize that everything has changed until you “realize” or
E.11 revelation come to you. All you need do is expect it to come and it  will come. So be it.
E.12 You  will also not realize that you have chosen nothing until and unless

E.17 this dialogue, in this form, must come to an end. The dialogue you  will carry forward with you, with your realization of being, will be
E.17 you will carry forward with you, with your realization of being,  will be a different dialogue.
E.19 these words behind now, and bring only the dialogue with you. You  will unerringly find those who can engage in the new dialogue, those

C:11.15 What  willingness is it that you are asked to give? It can come in many
C:11.15 can come in many manners and be given many forms. It can be called a  willingness to change your mind, or to allow yourself to be open to
C:11.15 open to new possibilities. It can be called a change of heart, or a  willingness but to, for a little while, withdraw your fear and your
C:11.15 while, withdraw your fear and your protection from it. But what this  willingness really does is allow your call to be sounded, your call
C:11.15 your call to be sounded, your call to love and to be loved. It is a  willingness to receive love from your Source and to be loved for who

C:20.45 that they can be given, through you, to others as well. It implies  willingness rather than resistance. To change your thinking and your
C:20.45 thinking and your feelings from expecting resistance to expecting  willingness is another key change that will lead toward
C:20.46 you naturally have reacted with resistance. You must replace your  willingness to believe in your inadequacy and smallness with your
C:20.46 willingness to believe in your inadequacy and smallness with your  willingness to believe in your ability and mightiness. Remember not
C:27.14 reality, and as a call to be in relationship with it. It is the  willingness to set aside judgment so that you are not contemplating
C:27.17 in which those who live in relationship become certain, and their  willingness to act unimpeded by uncertainty. All uncertainty is fear.
C:27.21 so. There is only one remaining source of such unwillingness. Your  willingness will now depend on whether or not you trust. Do you trust

T1:3.17 to miracles, only to having them performed through you. Your lack of  willingness to perform miracles, you will say, stems from your
T2:1.4 you had once hoped to have become abilities. You think this  willingness to accept who you are now is what this Course has led you
T2:1.14 is an elementary step and one easily accomplished with but a bit of  willingness. This change in thinking in regards to treasures you do
T2:2.9 ideas illustrate your belief that something other than your own  willingness is necessary. Only in your own willingness does anything
T2:2.9 other than your own willingness is necessary. Only in your own  willingness does anything exist because only in your willingness is
T2:2.9 in your own willingness does anything exist because only in your  willingness is the power of creation expressed.
T2:3.1 between the life you are living and the life you want lies in your  willingness to express who you are.
T2:3.7 is you. The power of creation is released through your choice, your  willingness to express that aspect of creation. It is quite literally
T2:4.9 rejection of your power. What is required to claim your power is the  willingness to move through the conflict of two opposing sets of
T2:4.10 the dualistic nature of your thoughts and feelings. A second step is  willingness to move past both ambiguity and conflict to union.
T2:11.9 the same. Your devotion to this learning must now be complete, your  willingness total, your way of learning that of a mind and heart
T3:14.14 Self of love. It begins with the birth of Christ in you and in your  willingness to live in the world as the Christ-Self.
T3:16.1  Willingness to live by the truth is the only offering you are asked
T3:16.2 Saying that  willingness is the only offering that is required of you is the same

T3:20.16 or sister reaches out to you, all you need ask for is a little  willingness. All you need do is open the door through which love can
T3:20.17 neither dismayed nor discouraged by those who do not see and have no  willingness to offer. Just know these aren’t the ones given you to
T3:20.18 attract others and each will find the price of admission is their  willingness to leave the old behind. This is a price they must freely
T3:21.23 him- or herself to find the truth. As has been said many times,  willingness is the starting point and as can be surely understood,
T4:1.21 from this state of consciousness and that you have given your  willingness to learn in a new way. The new way is here. If you are
T4:10.2 This is hard for you to imagine because as you consider your  willingness to give up learning you will meet resistance and realize,
T4:12.10 you have experienced throughout your lifetime and have expressed a  willingness to leave behind. Only you can leave these conditions

T4:12.34 new, a willingness that included the leaving behind of the old, a  willingness that included the leaving behind of fear and judgment and
T4:12.34 will, was necessary to begin creation of the new. Your former  willingness to accept the old but kept creation’s power harnessed to

T4:12.36 What is asked is our total willingness to abandon the old, our total  willingness to embrace the new. But also make no mistake that what is
D:2.1 To accept the new and to deny the old. Acceptance is a  willingness to receive. Obviously, when you consider this definition
D:2.1 of acceptance, you will see that this is not the way of the old.  Willingness to receive is quite contrary to the attitudes and actions
D:2.1 led your life thus far. You were told within A Course of Love that  willingness was all that was necessary for you to be able to take
D:2.1 return you to your true identity. Those of you who found within this  willingness an ability to receive and left behind your effort to
D:3.13 awareness of what you know. Acceptance is easily achieved through  willingness. Full awareness in form of what has previously been
D:4.30 Your part is to invite it and accept it when it comes. State your  willingness, accept the coming of your release, and prepare to leave
D:5.22 to everything that is still to come. Hesitate no longer. Let your  willingness exceed your trepidation. No longer wait to be told more
D:13.12 in which sharing can occur. Without relationship there is no  willingness and no union. Without relationship, you behave as a
D:Day1.3 of who I am, you will not fully accept who you are. Without your  willingness to achieve this acceptance, you will not receive the
D:Day2.23 all those willing to be changed. But great unwillingness remained.  Willingness was not yet upon humankind. The choice was made
D:Day2.26  Willingness is now upon humankind. What my life demonstrated but

C:23.24 to purge old beliefs so that only one set of beliefs is operative  within you. This is the only route to the certainty you seek, and

C:27.15 of what those situations entail. It is rather the you in and  within the relationship that responds out of the knowledge gained
C:27.19 simple knowing of a way things are meant to be. It is a knowing felt  within the heart for which there still will be no proof, but for

T1:1.3 seek no more. All that you are in need of knowing has been provided  within A Course of Love. That your learning does not feel complete is
T1:2.2 We identified much for you to leave behind  within the pages of A Course of Love. These many things which seemed
T1:2.5 cause of this freedom being accomplished in you. What was spoken of  within A Course of Love as unlearning has begun and continues here.
T1:2.5 Love as unlearning has begun and continues here. What was spoken of  within A Course of Love as new learning has begun and continues here
T1:2.11 seem indicated. All of these implications have been touched upon  within A Course of Love. The most essential of these implications is
T1:3.10 As was said  within A Course of Love, willingness does not require conviction but
T1:3.14 your fear is mightier than your willingness. But hold this thought  within your mind. What is needed to convince you will be provided.
T1:4.9 to give and is all you are asked to give. This response comes from  within the Self—the rightly identified and acknowledged Self.
T1:4.12 You may answer that there are many, even  within this Course’s definition of gift, the most obvious of which
T1:4.13 response, a necessary response, an obligation. Response happens from  within. Responsibility is all about dealing with an outside world.
T1:4.26 As was said  within A Course of Love, all fear is doubt about your self. Now we
T1:5.3 When it was said  within A Course of Love that the great paradox of creation is that,
T1:5.3 is that, while creation is perfect, something has gone wrong  within it, this fear in relation to the human experience is of what
T1:5.3 of what it was I spoke. The choice for suffering that has been made  within the human condition is what I speak of specifically here.
T1:5.4 How can you not be fearful of creation when such suffering occurs  within it? But there is another aspect that relates to the fear of
T1:5.4 that relates to the fear of union we spent much time discussing  within A Course of Love. It is a fear of the human mind that cannot
T1:5.7 to be capable of offering resistance. Your search for “something”  within the in-between, if it leads not beyond the in-between, but
T1:5.9 existence that is real. Your heart as we have defined it many times  within this Course, must exist in the thought system that is real to
T1:5.9 not present in the realm of the truly real, but is actually present  within the illusion. This is why all seeking must turn within, toward
T1:5.9 present within the illusion. This is why all seeking must turn  within, toward the heart where the real Self abides. There is nothing
T1:6.2 state of “all” from the unreal state of the in-between. Only from  within a state that is real can anything happen in truth.
T1:7.2 part of being human that calls for acceptance. They thus find peace  within suffering rather than abolishing suffering. This acceptance is
T1:8.11 not as myth and reality have no concrete distinction in the illusion  within which you live. In other words you live as much by myth as by
T1:9.4 manifestations, but reflects inner change. The growth of a new being  within the womb of another is a visible manifestation of gestation,
T1:9.4 and father, what would have died without the joining that occurred  within, becomes new life.
T1:9.8 for you this receiving or communion. Only through the Christ  within you does this giving and receiving become one in truth.

T2:1.7 to maintain your peace. There is another choice, and it lies  within.
T2:1.8 The treasure that lies  within that you do not yet fully recognize is that of unity. As you
T2:1.8 fully recognize is that of unity. As you have learned much of unity  within the context of this Course, unity, like rest, may have come to
T2:2.1 What is it in you that recognizes talents that lie fully realized  within? The practical mind is not the source of such imagination. The

T2:3.2 for expression. Life is the desire to express outwardly what exists  within. What I refer to so often here as being within, as if “within”
T2:3.2 outwardly what exists within. What I refer to so often here as being  within, as if “within” is a place in which something resides, is
T2:3.4 something real and learning something that is of relevance even  within the daily life you currently move through. Now you must fully
T2:3.7 to explain. If the ability to create beautiful music already exists  within you, you do not have to learn what beautiful music is, only
T2:3.7 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 to express
T2:3.7 quite literally true that the seeds of much of creation lie dormant  within you, already accomplished but awaiting expression in this
T2:3.8 identity in the broadest sense imaginable. Christ is your identity  within the unity that is creation.
T2:4.3 of Love work hand-in-hand because the change of thinking taught  within A Course in Miracles was a change of thinking about yourself.
T2:4.3 order to reveal to you who you truly are. While you continue to act  within the world as who you think you are rather than as who you are,
T2:4.4 is attempting to show you how to live as who you are, how to act  within the world as the new Self you have identified. Just like
T2:4.5 in to who you think you are could be likened to trying to move  within water as you would on land. Why, when moving freely through
T2:4.7 This applies directly to your reaction to all that occurs  within your life. Let us look now at your reaction to the idea put
T2:4.12 peace to go in search of calling but are rather asked to listen from  within that peace to what you feel called to do. This is not about
T2:4.18 cannot be measured because of its simultaneous nature. As was said  within A Course of Love, time is but a measurement of the “time” it
T2:5.1 to action. We have talked heretofore about a calling you feel from  within, as if you are listening to a new voice that would reveal your
T2:5.5 to come in the form of demands are often calls that come to you from  within the teaching and learning ground of relationships. You may be
T2:5.7 with who you are. These lessons will bring who you are into focus  within your mind through the vehicle of your heart.
T2:6.1 is your heart. It is what alerts you to the treasures that lie  within. There is no time in the place we are calling within and your
T2:6.1 that lie within. There is no time in the place we are calling  within and your heart knows not of time even while it adheres to the
T2:6.5 You believe that your treasures only become accomplished abilities  within time. You believe that your treasures only become part of your
T2:6.8 that needs adjustment now. As a tree exists fully accomplished  within its seed and yet grows and changes, you exist fully
T2:6.8 its seed and yet grows and changes, you exist fully accomplished  within the seed that is the Christ in you even while you continue to
T2:6.8 and action of all kinds are but expressions of what already exist  within the seed of the already accomplished.
T2:6.10 unity in the present, in the here and now, so that you exist—even  within form—as the only Son of God, the Christ, the word made
T2:7.4 idea of “relationship” that has been so often defined and repeated  within this Course. In order to believe in giving and receiving as
T2:7.10 of the desire for change. Certainly there will continue to be things  within your life that are in need of change. As was stated in the
T2:7.10 You will want to move into the world and be an active force  within it. These are aims consistent with the teachings of this
T2:7.13 You cannot effect change without, without having effected change  within. You cannot be independent and still be of service. For as
T2:7.19 that you bring the thoughts and feelings that arise to the place  within your heart that has been prepared for them. You do not deny
T2:8.2 As was said  within A Course of Love, the one you come to know through
T2:8.2 on which you now stand. All that prevents you from being who you are  within these relationships must be let go. All that will complement
T2:8.6 It was said often  within A Course of Love that the truth does not change. Thus the
T2:8.6 you be away from home for home is who you are, a “place” you carry  within you, a place that is you. This is the home of unity.
T2:9.10 your needs makes the difference in your connection or separation  within relationship. The extent to which you are willing to abdicate
T2:9.13 So how do you remain  within the constant creative flux or flow of creation without either
T2:10.1 static state is not a living state because creation is not occurring  within it. This is a living Course. This is why you are called to
T2:10.3 a hand swats away a fly. You know that the information is contained  within you and yet you are often forced to accept an inability to
T2:10.14 that allows you to move through each day and all the experiences  within it as who you are in truth. It releases you from the feeling
T2:11.1 The Christ in you is relationship. As you were told  within the pages of A Course of Love, you are a being who exists in
T2:11.15 ego is real, you will feel as if there are two identities that exist  within you and you will see yourself as doing battle in countless
T2:11.15 of conflict is the source of all conflict that seems real to you  within your world. This battle of good and evil, while you believe in
T2:11.17 is indeed a miracle and the very miracle you have been prepared for  within this course of learning.
T2:12.8 If callings come to alert you to the treasure  within, how can it be that you, as a miracle-minded being, are not
T2:12.9 is the relationship and the miracle waiting to happen. As we spoke  within A Course of Love of relationship being not one thing or
T2:12.9 you is the real you, then this all-encompassing relationship, both  within you and without you, both you and all you are in relationship
T2:12.10 The gardener knows that although the plant exists fully realized  within its seed, it also needs the relationship of earth and water,
T2:12.11 of struggle. The ego would hang on to what is already accomplished  within you, never to let it express, through relationship, all that
T2:12.12 then, of the all-encompassing holy relationship that exists  within you and without you, both in all you are and all you are in
T2:12.14 Recognize now that unity is  within you and without you, in all you are and all you are in
T2:13.2 ready, it is time for us to have a personal relationship. We have,  within these lessons, taken you far from your personal self, and I,
T3:1.11 yourself to be could be two completely different selves. Even  within the illusion in which you existed there was a self kept hidden.
T3:2.3 only means you saw of deciphering the world around you and your role  within it. Separation, aloneness, independence, individuality—these
T3:2.4 While much time was spent  within this Course, discussing the choice you but think you made,
T3:2.5 shaped your dualistic view of the world and all that exists with you  within it. For every “glory,” gift, or success you have achieved you
T3:2.5 from the truth and is the cause of all your suffering, for contained  within this belief was the belief that with each successful step
T3:2.11 This memory lies  within your heart and has the ability to turn the image you have made
T3:2.11 This thought system has allowed only the acceptance of a reality  within certain parameters, for it has not allowed you to imagine
T3:6.3 the many details that seem to make it possible for you to live  within your world. The idea of reward transfers to ideas related to
T3:6.3 given in another, is the cause of much of the bitterness that exists  within your hearts.
T3:6.4 self and a learned self, there has always been just enough room  within the ego’s thought system to keep within you the idea of a self
T3:6.4 always been just enough room within the ego’s thought system to keep  within you the idea of a self the ego is not. Thus has the ego had a
T3:6.4 as time itself and the cause of bitterness being able to exist, even  within your hearts.
T3:7.3 and thus your inaccurate ideas about yourself have their cause  within you, as does your ability to change this cause and its effects.
T3:7.4 You are who you are and remain endlessly who you are, even here  within the human experience. This is the idea that is beyond compare
T3:7.4 is the only idea that holds true meaning and so all meaning is found  within it. Thus we start with this idea.
T3:7.5 The only thing  within the human experience that made you incapable of representing
T3:7.5 of representing who you are in truth was the ego. The only thing  within the human experience that deprived the human experience of
T3:7.6 You have formerly been capable of representing who you are only  within illusion for this was the abode in which you resided. Illusion
T3:7.6 of representing your true Self. This representation of the true Self  within the house of illusion was like an explosion happening there.
T3:7.6 floorboards shook, the walls quaked, the lights dimmed. All those  within the house became aware of something happening there. All
T3:7.8 Thus has been the best of what you call life  within the illusion.
T3:7.9 is a reason for this. The reason is that the Source cannot be found  within the house of illusion. The Source can only be found from
T3:7.9 within the house of illusion. The Source can only be found from  within the House of Truth.
T3:7.10 The home of truth is  within you and we have just unlocked its doors.
T3:8.2 If the Source of Truth is  within you, then it is your own revelation toward which we work.
T3:8.3 blocks for its thought system. As long as you carry this bitterness  within you, you will remain in the house of illusion for your
T3:8.3 that keeps you from the truth as surely as would iron bars keep you  within its rooms.
T3:8.6 well as the choice to leave suffering behind, has always been found  within? Who then are you to be angry with for all that has occurred?
T3:8.7 in A Course of Love, the idea of suffering is what has gone so wrong  within God’s creation. As was said in “A Treatise on the Art of
T3:8.9 As the representations of the true Self  within the house of illusion caused explosions and a fallout of
T3:8.9 and a fallout of treasure, the representation of the true Self  within the House of Truth will cause the creation of the new.
T3:8.11  Within the fallout of treasure, what was looked for was found. If
T3:9.1 from love is real. It is an idea that says only that which fits  within the laws of love is reality. It is an idea that says all that
T3:9.1 not exist. It is an idea that says that if you live from love and  within love’s laws you will create only love. It is an idea that
T3:9.3 are joined in unity and exist in relationship. All of the ideas  within the house of illusion were contained within it and held
T3:9.3 All of the ideas within the house of illusion were contained  within it and held together by the learned ideas of the ego thought
T3:9.3 will be tempted, at first, to see things that are like unto those  within the house of illusion and call them what you called them once
T3:9.4 You will see that the house of illusion was just a structure built  within the universe of truth and that the universe of truth contains
T3:9.4 universe of truth and that the universe of truth contains everything  within its benevolent embrace. No one stands beyond the embrace of
T3:9.4 embrace of love and you will be glad to see that those who remain  within the house of illusion could not escape love’s presence.
T3:9.5 its doors. You will be able to take note of the explosions happening  within and will want to return to add your own to those going on
T3:9.5 the walls will finally come tumbling down and those inside be held  within illusion no more. This was the work of many who came before
T3:9.5 shake the walls of illusion. Few stand beyond it to beckon to those  within.
T3:10.1 the truth, you must realize that while meaninglessness exists  within your mind, you will be working still to replace it with
T3:10.2 is offered as an exercise in forgetting. As often as is possible  within your daily life, I ask you to forget as much of what you have
T3:10.8 voice of the ego. While the ego is gone, many of its messages remain  within your thoughts, like echoes of a former time. These thoughts
T3:10.13 forgotten. However, if you were to return to a dwelling where those  within it spoke only Spanish, soon your knowledge of Spanish would
T3:10.15 because they will realize that the memory of this language exists  within them as well. It will come naturally to you to welcome these
T3:10.16 still exists, you will continue to encounter those who exist  within it. While you continue to encounter those who exist in the
T3:11.1 been seen as a statement of awareness of the self. Those existing  within the house of illusion are aware of the self but are unaware
T3:11.2 Those existing  within the House of Truth also feel an awareness of Self. Without
T3:11.6 and lived by the truth. I was aware of the Peace of God and lived  within the Peace of God. I was aware of the Love of God and the Love
T3:11.6 of God. I was aware of the Love of God and the Love of God lived  within me.
T3:11.7 what you are now called to do: Be aware that the love of God lives  within you. Live within the Peace of God. Live by the truth.
T3:11.7 called to do: Be aware that the love of God lives within you. Live  within the Peace of God. Live by the truth.
T3:11.9 the Kingdom of God or the House of Truth exists, but how to live  within it. The question of how to live within it is best addressed by
T3:11.9 Truth exists, but how to live within it. The question of how to live  within it is best addressed by concentrating on living according to
T3:11.12 All exist in the House of Truth. The house of illusion exists  within the House of Truth because it is where your brothers and
T3:11.12 heaven. Choice and the awareness of the power of choice that exists  within is all that differentiates one from the other.
T3:11.13 You must not see your brothers and sisters  within the house of illusion but must see them where they truly are—
T3:11.13 the house of illusion but must see them where they truly are—  within the House of Truth. As soon as you would “see” the house of
T3:11.15 to produce a new outcome. Do not be afraid to use anything available  within the house of illusion to promote the recognition of truth. Do
T3:12.2 You exist  within the time of consciousness of the personal self. Thus we begin
T3:12.2 The steps that came before that of the personal self did not come  within time. The creation of time was simultaneous with the creation
T3:12.7 to dream of is a state in which only God’s laws of love exist even  within the realm of physicality. What this means is that all that in
T3:12.10 of creation than a physical self able to choose to express the Self  within the laws of love? A physical self, able to express itself from
T3:12.10 the laws of love? A physical self, able to express itself from  within the House of Truth in ways consistent with peace and love is
T3:12.11 While this would seem to say that mistakes may occur  within creation, remember that creation is about change and growth.
T3:12.11 that creation is about change and growth. There is no right or wrong  within creation but there are stages of growth and change. Humankind
T3:13.2 feel a connection to God during such times, you will not be dwelling  within the peace of God. Your Self and God will be but memories to
T3:13.14 physical self represents, in form, the thought or image produced  within the Self. Ideas, in the context in which we are speaking of
T3:14.1 from the new thought system. The new thought system will still exist  within your mind and heart, as nothing can now take this memory from
T3:14.1 not bring about the changes you would so desire to have come about  within your physical experience. You may live a more peaceful and
T3:14.2 accept your current status and begin to feel more peace and joy  within it. If you are not well, you may cope more easily with your
T3:14.6 eyes of love, you will be much more likely to see love everywhere  within the life you currently live than to see the need to change
T3:15.1 form of new beginning has taken place or been offered. Often, those  within the relationship of marriage have had occasion to choose to
T3:15.2 What hampers new beginnings of all kinds  within the human experience are ideas that things cannot be different
T3:15.3 certain behavior—and expectations of continued special treatment  within the relationship. Even, and sometimes especially, what is
T3:15.3 behavior can come to be an expectation difficult to deviate from  within the special relationship. But whether the expectation is of
T3:15.10 is with the Self, the Self that abides in unity with all  within the House of Truth. This relationship makes the Self one with
T3:15.11 have said here that love, peace, and truth are interchangeable ideas  within the new thought system. Thus, truth, like love, is not
T3:15.11 News is that you have no need to learn the truth. The truth exists  within you and you are now aware of its reality.
T3:15.12 How then, do you access and live  within this new reality, this new beginning? Through living by the
T3:15.15 and receiving are one in truth. There is no loss but only gain  within the laws of love. Special relationships have been replaced by
T3:16.4 before, I am also confident in saying that a hope has been instilled  within you, a hope for the very changes that you feel you need in
T3:16.4 for the very changes that you feel you need in order to reflect,  within your daily life, the new Self you have become.
T3:16.5 We spoke once before  within A Course of Love of your impatience and of this Course acting
T3:16.6 awaiting replacement by what will be, is a change that must occur  within. As has already been said, this change has to do with the
T3:16.11 There is no loss but only gain  within the laws of love.
T3:16.12 By saying that there is no loss but only gain  within the laws of love, you are being told to have no fear. Fear of
T3:16.12 resistance at all but the idea that there is no loss but only gain  within the laws of love.
T3:16.15 is the idea of the holy relationship in which all exist in unity and  within the protection of love’s embrace. If you but live by the idea
T3:16.15 new Self will create. As you live with awareness of the love of God  within you, you will see that you have no need for special love
T3:17.1 was simply so that expressions of love could be created and observed  within the realm of physicality.
T3:17.4 to occur. A new experience was chosen—the experience of existing  within the realm of physicality. As such, it was as much a new
T3:17.5 the desired experience to learn the lessons of what was observable  within the physical realm, to have begun to forget the unobservable
T3:17.7 names have represented the truth and in so doing dispelled illusion  within themselves and those who followed their teachings and example.
T3:17.7 those who followed their teachings and example. This has occurred  within the time of the Holy Spirit.
T3:17.8 and the thought system of the ego-self and been able to communicate  within that illusion. Without this means of communication with the
T3:18.10 health, abundance, peace, and happiness. You can observe this  within yourself because it exists within your Self. What exists
T3:18.10 happiness. You can observe this within yourself because it exists  within your Self. What exists within you is shared by all. This is
T3:18.10 this within yourself because it exists within your Self. What exists  within you is shared by all. This is the relationship of the truth
T3:19.1 You must not fear the changes that will occur  within your physical form as it begins to be guided by the thought
T3:19.10 The true source of these temptations has been revealed to lie  within the faulty beliefs to which the body merely responded. The
T3:19.12 These lessons could not be taught while blame remained  within your thought system. No victim is to blame for the violence
T3:19.12 violence done to them. No sick person is to blame for the illness  within them. But you must be able to look at and see reality for what
T3:19.15 will be tempted to return to the house of illusion to gather those  within and bid them join you in the reality of the truth. But in this
T3:20.2 there was no sense to be made of concepts such as more or less  within illusion, and although more or less are concepts also foreign
T3:20.8 first to respond to such situations in a new way, but all situations  within the house of illusion call for the same response, the response
T3:20.12 longer return to the house of illusion, not even to cause explosions  within it. You have stepped out of this house and are called not to
T3:20.14 you from your peace, you must remind yourself that it is only from  within the Peace of God that your wholeheartedness and our unity is
T3:20.15 to return to the ways of old. They do not work! To minister to those  within the house of illusion is to offer the temporary to the
T3:20.16 the language of your mind that will be responded to. It is the love  within your heart that will sound the call. And when it is heard, and
T3:21.13 beliefs are subject to change, hold yourself to behaviors that fall  within the parameters of your belief system. You think of these
T3:21.15 you live in and the “type” of person you feel you have chosen to be  within that world. Whether you have given thought to the
T3:21.15 that of all other human beings. And what’s more, your experiences  within that world are also different than the experiences of all
T3:22.1 you, for surely your life must change. The very precepts put forth  within this Course, precepts that say that the internal affects the
T3:22.4 of who you are, the seeds of who you are, are planted there, right  within the self you have always been. There has always been within
T3:22.4 right within the self you have always been. There has always been  within you, however, a creative tension between accepting who you are
T3:22.9 that will give an outlet for the excitement that has been building  within you. You are ready to be done with the concerns of the
T3:22.16 with the vision of creation, creating the personal self anew, seeing  within it all that will serve the new, and only what will serve the
T4:1.1 and that others do not. It will continue the view from  within the embrace, an embrace and a view that is inclusive of all.
T4:1.12 As was said  within “A Treatise on the Personal Self,” even the house of illusion
T4:1.12 Treatise on the Personal Self,” even the house of illusion is held  within the embrace of love, of God, of the truth. Does this sound
T4:1.14 different about this time, the capabilities of those existing  within it. It must be your science or technology, your advanced
T4:1.15 create the new world is an understanding of creation and your role  within it, both as Creators and Created.
T4:1.16 As was said  within “A Treatise on the Personal Self,” all notions of blame must
T4:1.16 exists in the present. This is the same as saying the truth exists  within you. It is in this way that time is not real and will no
T4:1.23 While the state of the world and the people  within it may not outwardly seem much changed from the world of your
T4:1.24 to maturity have been born into the time of Christ, and do not fit  within the time or the consciousness of the Holy Spirit.
T4:1.25 numbing activities in order to block it out, having chosen to die  within the state of consciousness in which they have lived. Others do
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 reflect
T4:2.2 perceived without, now you turn inward and reflect what you discover  within outward. What you discover within is in a way that what you
T4:2.2 and reflect what you discover within outward. What you discover  within is in a way that what you perceive without is not.
T4:2.7 aware of their true nature does not mean that it does not exist  within them. You are no more accomplished than anyone has been or is
T4:2.16 the power of cause and its effect. This is the power you now have  within you, the power to observe the truth rather than illusion. This
T4:2.21 day is a creation and holy too. Not one day is meant to be lived  within a struggle with what it brings. The power to observe what is
T4:2.23 evident in the pattern of your thinking. We have spoken of this  within the text of A Course of Love as your inability to realize the
T4:2.25 to grow in you, you will learn the lessons that are being spoken of  within this Treatise.
T4:2.27 Let this idea gestate a moment  within you and reveal to you the truth of which it speaks. The
T4:3.5 continually reacting to fear. While the original intent remained  within you and caused you to attempt to express a Self of love
T4:3.7 not know God. You could not know God because you judged God from  within the nature of fear, believing it to be your natural state.
T4:3.10 will allow you to see the nature of the world and all that exists  within it truly. Observation will allow you to elevate the personal
T4:3.10 will allow you to elevate the personal self to its rightful place  within the nature of a world of love.
T4:4.1 Everywhere  within your world you see the pattern of life-everlasting. Where
T4:4.2 decline. This is the pattern of creation taken to extremes. Inherent  within the extreme is the balance. Even in the biblical description
T4:4.2 balanced with rest is the pattern that has been taken to extremes  within your world. You think of birth as creation and death as rest.
T4:4.5 idea, an idea with much more power than in current times. Inherent  within the idea of inheritance was an idea of passing as well as an
T4:4.7 an idea consistent with that of creation. There is no discontinuity  within creation. Like begets like. Life begets life. Thus is revealed
T4:4.9 of as the time of fullness. It is the time during which you have  within your awareness the ability to come into your time of fullness
T4:5.2 again be in harmony with creation. So that you can express yourself  within the relationship of unity that is the whole of the choir and
T4:5.4 is known as God. Since you are clearly alive, this Energy exists  within you as it exists in all else that lives. It is one Energy
T4:5.5 spark of the energy that has created a living universe existing  within you and uniting you to all that has been created. You are the
T4:5.5 in you. This energy is the form and content of the embrace. It is  within you and It surrounds and It encompasses you. It is you and all
T4:5.5 unto what the water of the ocean is to the living matter that exists  within it. The living matter that exists within the ocean has no need
T4:5.5 living matter that exists within it. The living matter that exists  within the ocean has no need to search for God. It lives in God. So
T4:7.3 who consider themselves pragmatists, will hold this understanding  within their grasp. Many will be surprised by experiences of unity
T4:7.4 Those who sustain Christ-consciousness will abide  within it free of judgment. They will not seek to create their
T4:7.4 of a perfect world and to force it upon others, but will abide  within the perfect world that is in the vision of
T4:7.5 a heart and mind joined in unity, your body too will exist or abide  within this natural state. It cannot help to, as it, just like your
T4:8.2 mean is that you are only now reaching a stage wherein you can know,  within your inner being, that this is the truth. I say this because
T4:8.2 I am not saying that you did not. I am saying that a choice was made  within the one mind, the one heart, and that this was your choice as
T4:8.7 learns to do these things, and that these things were loving acts  within a loving universe, a love-filled learning process. A learning
T4:10.5 happens in the present moment. Studying takes up residence  within the student; there to be mulled over, committed to memory,
T4:12.4 No matter where you are, no matter what concerns you still hold  within your heart, no matter what questions are emanating from your
T4:12.9 have been religious, abandon not your churches, for you will find  within them now, direct experiences of sharing. If you have found
T4:12.11 an example that relates to the state of rebellion that was discussed  within the text of this Treatise.
T4:12.12 and scholar who spoke of how he knew, as soon as he was content  within the life of the monastery, that it was time to once again move
T4:12.16 part of the nature of the human experience by becoming so consistent  within you that it came, through the passing down of the human
T4:12.20 no cause for fear. To dwell in fear will end your ability to dwell  within the love that is Christ-consciousness. As there is no longer
T4:12.24 You now exist  within a shared consciousness. The pattern of a shared consciousness
T4:12.24 is one of sharing in unity and relationship. There is no pattern  within it for learning (which is individual), for individual gain, or
T4:12.28 What this means will be revealed to you and shared by all who abide  within Christ-consciousness because you abide in a consciousness of
T4:12.31 fully come to awareness of all they have inherited and all it is  within their power to create.
D:1.8 Even with the ego gone, the personal self can continue to move about  within the world, a faceless and nameless entity, a being without an
D:1.10 ego is gone but the true Self has not been allowed as yet to dwell  within the personal self, thus elevating the personal self. You have
D:1.12 here. We go beyond what can be symbolized to what can only be known  within. It is to this state of grace that I call you now, today: The
D:1.13 you open your heart and allow your true identity to be what is, even  within your form. You are in grace and union with the Source and

D:2.2 accept who you are not and the ways of life that allowed you to live  within the world as a false self.

D:2.22  Within is where the real world and all your brothers and sisters
D:2.22 and sisters exist in the unity of Christ-consciousness. Change  within effects change without, not the other way around! Within is

D:3.5 As the wholehearted, you have it  within your ability to do what those who live their lives with a

D:3.17 “other” than your Self rather than seeking the awareness that exists  within.
D:3.19 expressions do not make different. These differences were spoken of  within this Course as unique expressions of the selfsame love that

D:3.23 All—all—that you need in order to create the new is available  within you. The power of the universe is given and received

D:7.2 You were told  within this Course that what you learn in unity is shared. This
D:7.3 You were also told  within this Course that because you were learning in separation,
D:7.28 this is your territory, it is a shared territory and a territory  within the territory of planet Earth.
D:7.29 live and work nearby. This territory of conscious awareness exists  within the larger consciousness of unity, just as the territory of
D:7.29 consciousness of unity, just as the territory of your body exists  within the larger territory of the planet Earth. We will begin here,
D:8.1 Continuing to imagine your body as the dot  within the circle, I ask you to imagine now being able to take a step
D:9.5 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 were

D:9.12 exists within you? So too is it with an idea. An idea already exists  within you, but is awaiting its birth through you.
D:11.5 has lit a bonfire in your heart and begun a stampede of thoughts  within your mind. Again, is this not what we spoke of in the
D:11.10 These answers lie  within you, at the heart or center of your Self, as do all answers.
D:11.10 Because you will know and fully accept that the answers lie  within.
D:11.12 The giving and receiving of these words will never make sense  within the terms of the world you have always known. No explanation
D:11.13 of the nature of who you are if you but let this idea dwell  within you and take up residence in your heart. We are the sacred
D:11.14 In other words, the elevated Self of form does not remain contained  within the dot of the body but draws its sustenance from the larger

D:12.13 as it may sound, that this access and entryway already exists  within you, and that you have already benefited from moments of
D:12.16 truth, another’s reaction to this truth, or simple doubt that arose  within your thinking, but regardless of this fading of your

D:14.2 Here it will be helpful to keep in mind the idea of “as  within, so without.” We are not leaving the Self to explore, because

D:14.15 must precede creation of the new world. For as it has been said: As  within, so without.
D:15.12 I return you to the lesson on “pass through” which was contained  within this Course. The Course sought to teach you to develop a
D:15.21 that allow your acceptance and discovery of all that is available  within unity, or Christ-consciousness, will no longer be needed. This
