Be not afraid to look upon the special hate relationship, for freedom lies in looking at it.

It Never Happened
The ego attempts to convince you that you have
a personal story that is obviously real. The attitude of the Holy
Spirit though, can best be summed in just three words: It never
happened!

Time
To sum up our discussion on the topic of time
the Course teaches you, ‘Time and eternity are both in your mind, and
will conflict until you perceive time solely as a means to regain
eternity. You cannot do this as long as you believe that anything
happening to you is caused by factors outside yourself. You must learn
that time is solely at your disposal, and that nothing in the world can
take this responsibility from you.’ ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto

The Holy Instant
Never approach the holy instant after you have
tried to remove all fear and hatred from your mind. That is ITS
function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy
Spirit’s help. That is HIS function. Your part is only to offer Him a
little willingness to let Him remove all fear and hatred, and to be
forgiven. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles Facebook.com/JDogACIM

God is Limitless
God limits not. And what is limited cannot be Heaven. So it must be hell.

Mind or the Body?
Truth is the absence of illusions; illusion
the absence of truth. Both cannot be together, nor perceived in the
same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a goal forever
impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through the body, thought
of as a means for seeking out reality through attack. The other part
would heal, and therefore calls upon the mind and not the body.

Your Memory of God
The seeming interaction between you and God is
really an interaction within your own unconscious split mind - between
the part of you that has forgotten your reality and the part of your
mind where the Holy Spirit dwells. He has never left you. His voice is
your memory of God - your memory of your true home. This Voice
represents your long-forgotten reality. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Insane Ego Thought System
It's only after the ego is sufficiently undone
that you can look back and see how crazy your ego thought system was.
That's why J says this, "You cannot evaluate an insane belief system
from within it. Its range precludes this. You can only go beyond it,
look back from a point where sanity exists and see the contrast. Only by
this contrast can insanity be judged as insane." ~ Your Immortal Reality

Nothing Wrong with Moving On
The ironic thing about this spiritual path is
that even though it is all about undoing the idea of separation in the
mind and returning to Oneness, on the level of form, however, you may be
guided to separate as you practice forgiveness; separate from your
spouse, your job, your place of residence, your friends, or what have
you.
Once certain forgiveness lessons have been learned, sometimes you’ll feel guided to move on, and there’s certainly nothing wrong with that. You may very well find you have outgrown the need for particular relationships and circumstances in your life due to your practice of true forgiveness.

Your Oneness with God
The awareness of your oneness with the
Presence of God is yours because God gave it to you. You have forgotten
it. Yet it is still there, buried in your mind. There is a way to
remember. And by remembering, you will reclaim what you really are and
where you really belong. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

Choose Once Again
As
your ego is gradually undone, you get closer and closer to the
beginning; that moment where you made the one mistake that resulted in
all the others. Then you will get to choose once again for the final
time, resulting in your return to Heaven and eternal Oneness with God. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

You Won't Miss Anyone
Remember,
when you wake up from a dream, the dream disappears. It will be gone
completely. You will not miss anyone, because everyone you ever knew and
loved will be there - because they will be one with you. It's awesome.

Your Problems are not the Problem
The
ego tries to convince you that your problems are the problem, but the
Holy Spirit knows it’s the well-hidden, unconscious guilt that makes you
need to dream a world of separation in the first place that’s the
problem. Of course, the world doesn’t think that. The world doesn’t even
know about it! As the Course makes sure to remind you late in the Text,
‘Of one thing you were sure: of all the many causes you perceived as
bringing pain and suffering to you, your guilt was not among them.’

What Does Forgiveness Do?
What does forgiveness do? In truth it has no
function, and does nothing, for it is unknown in Heaven. It is only
hell where it is needed, and where it must serve a mighty function.

Anger
All anger is nothing more than an attempt to
make someone feel guilty, and this attempt is the only basis the ego
accepts for special relationships. Guilt is the only need the ego has,
and as long as you identify with it, guilt will remain attractive to
you. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles

Attaining the Real World
The real world is attained simply by the
complete forgiveness of the old, the world you see without forgiveness.
The great Transformer of perception will undertake with you the careful
searching of the mind that made this world, and uncover to you the
seeming reasons for your making it. In the light of the real reason
that He brings, as you follow Him, He will show you that there is no
reason here at all.

Bodies are All the Same
The more you forgive, the less you’re taken in
by the ego’s tricks. As J says late in the Course about God’s
teachers, ‘Awareness of dreaming is the real function of God’s teachers.
They watch the dream figures come and go, shift and change,
suffer and die. Yet they are not deceived by what they see. They
recognize that to behold a dream figure as sick and separate is no more
real than to regard it as healthy and beautiful.’ So bodies, sick or
healthy, are really all the same, because none of them are true. ~ Your Immortal Reality Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/photo

The Body is in Your Mind
You perceive yourself as being in a body, and
then the body tells you what to feel. But you should be the one who
tells the body what to feel. You are not in the body; the body is in
your mind. When you put the mind in its proper perspective,
then you're taking charge of the cause instead of being at the mercy of
the effect. Then you can choose the Holy Spirit and His answer instead
of the ego's questions. Thus will you be returned to wholeness.
Because of that, how you experience things will change on this level,
and the Holy Spirit will take care of the job on the larger,
metaphysical scale. ~ Your Immortal Reality Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/photo

Being a Student First
It takes many years of practice to make
significant progress, but a lot of people want to skip to the end
without utilizing the means, which is forgiveness. They want to be a
master without being a student. If you try to be more than that, then strange things happen.
For example, there are a couple of so-called Course teachers who have set themselves up as cult leaders. Sometimes it's obvious that this is what's going on, and sometimes it's more subtle. In any case, if a teacher or their assistants try to get you to surrender any personal property to them or make large donations, something is rotten in Denmark. Ditto if they want you to live at their location. I
It's clear the Course is not meant to be used as an escape from society, but as a tool to forgive society. Invariable, cult leaders will present a facade of being infallible. Rather than empowering you to do your own forgiveness work, which is clearly the intention of the Course, they'll try to make you think that it's being in their presence and following them that leads to enlightenment.

# 3 Rule of Spiritual Healing
Now here's the third biggest all-time, perhaps
hard to believe yet absolutely true rule, when it comes to spiritual
healing: Ultimately, the universe itself is a symptom that will
disappear.
When you really wake up, what appeared to be real before is now recognized as the idle dream that it is. Then it is forgotten, or at least rendered meaningless. Your present lifetime and all of the others will disappear, and when everyone reaches the same state of enlightenment, the universe will disappear – leaving only God's universe of Heaven. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

#2 Rule of Spiritual Healing
Here's the #2 rule of all time time when it
comes to spiritual healing: Pain is not a physical process; it is a
mental process.
Healing requires a shift in perception, and as the Course asks and answers for you, ‘What is the single requisite for this shift in perception? It is simply this; the recognition that sickness is of the mind, and has nothing to do with the body. What does this recognition “cost?” It costs the whole world you see, for the world will never again appear to rule the mind. For with this recognition is responsibility placed where it belongs; not with the world, but on him who looks on the world and sees it as it is not.’ ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

#1 Rule of Spiritual Healing
Here's the #1 rule of all time when it comes to spiritual healing: It's not about the patient.
All healing is a result of some kind of forgiveness, and all forgiveness leads to self-healing. So even when it comes to healing the sick it's really about forgiving your own dream, and forgiving yourself for dreaming it. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Forgiving the World
It's by forgiving the world that you will
awaken, and realize that you never left Heaven, and have remained
exactly as God created you, which is perfect spirit. As J puts it in the
Course, 'You are as God created you. All else but this one thing is
folly to believe. In this one thought is everyone set free. In this one
truth are all illusions gone. In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed
to be forever part of everything, the central core of its existence and its guarantee of immortality.'
But always remember the forgiveness that leads to this experience must be done at the level of cause and not effect, as J points out very early in the Text, "You must change your mind, not your behavior, and this is a matter of willingness. You do not need guidance except at the mind level. Correction belongs only at the level where change is possible. Change does not mean anything at the symptom level, where it cannot work." ~ Your Immortal Reality Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Holy Spirit will teach you how to see
yourself without condemnation, by learning how to look on everything
without it. Condemnation will then not be real to you, and all your
errors will be forgiven.

Most people assume it's what they believe in

way out. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

Admitting to Your Ego Thought System
Not only do you have tremendous resistance to
facing what you think is your awful guilt underneath the surface, but
simultaneously, your ego is terrified that to do so successfully, and
change your mind about it, would result in losing its identity
as a separate individual. It's going to take some willpower on your
part to admit to this thought system within yourself as you observe it
in action, and then allow the Holy Spirit to undo it as you forgive the
symbolic images of it that you see outside of you.

Bringing Illusions to Truth
The Atonement does not make holy. You were
created holy. It merely brings unholiness to holiness; or what you made
to what you are. Bringing illusion to truth, or the ego to God, is the
Holy Spirit's only function.
