What Will Make You Happy?

It's only through disciplined application that the practitioner can enter the glorious phase of experience. And I guarantee you, dear brother, that experience is the only thing that will ever make you happy. Words will never do it. As J says in the Course, 'Words are but symbols of symbols, they are thus twice removed from reality.' And when you think about it, how is a symbol of a symbol ever going to make you happy? No. The only thing that will make you happy is the experience of what you really are. What will truly satisfy you is not a symbol of reality, but an experience of reality. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Mind is Where Real Power is

Remember that if ideas have not left their source, then what you're seeing has never left the mind. If it's in the mind, and if minds can be changed, then the mind is where real power is. What made J and Buddha who they were was that they were not tricked by appearances. The illusion exists to make you think you have put distance in between you and your guilt, but by making it real and judging and condemning it, you simply keep it in place. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

You're Never a Victim

Forgiveness is what the individual can do about his or her world, and nobody can ever take that away once you know how to do it. And once you know how to do it, then you realize that you're never a victim, and what you are seeing are merely symbols of your own insanity pictured outside of yourself - except now you have a way to be free of it by releasing the other. Other people in turn will live in peace only after they are willing to look at their own dark side as seen in others and forgive it. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

What Do You Value?

If you choose a thing that will not last forever, what you chose is valueless. A temporary value is without all value. Time can never take away a value that is real. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles

I Am Immortal Spirit

Typically, people have a tendency to project their unconscious guilt onto other people and make them wrong. But everybody has times when they blame themselves. When you're beating yourself up, remember this forgiveness thought process: I am immortal spirit. This body is just an image. It has nothing to do with what I am.  ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto

Forgiveness and the Peace of God

God’s peace can never come where anger is, for anger must deny that peace exists. Who sees anger as justified in any way or any circumstance proclaims that peace is meaningless, and must believe that it cannot exist. In this condition, peace cannot be found. Therefore, forgiveness is the necessary condition for finding the peace of God. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles

The Happy Dream

Instead of using illusions to defend your illusions against other illusions, you just forgive. That leads to Heaven; it's a factoid. It's like you're replacing the dream that leads away from truth with the dream that leads to truth, 'cause as the Course says about salvation, "...What could it be except a happy dream? It asks you but that you forgive all things that no one ever did; to overlook what is not there, and not to look upon the unreal as reality."  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

What Would Jesus Do?

Forgiveness isn't about being a do-gooder, not that there's anything wrong with doing good deeds if it turns you on. The Course is about being a right thinker. A lot of Christians ask nowadays, "What would Jesus do?" There's only one correct answer to that question, and it would always be the same. He'd forgive.   ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Awakening At Your Own Pace

Fear or Love

Fear, sin, rage, guilt, jealousy, anger, pain, worry, resentment, revenge, loathing, envy, and all other negative emotions are versions of the same illusion. That's why the Course taught very clearly, before all the borrowers came along, that, ‘Fear and love are the only emotions of which you are capable.’

People who borrow from the Course instead of teaching it generally make one of two mistakes. Either they try to make up a secular version of the Course, which doesn't work because when you leave out God, you're ignoring the one real problem – the seeming separation from Him – or they make up a version that includes God, but is a dualistic system. This also fails to solve the one real problem because of the very nature of duality. How can you undo the separation from God by believing that God created and acknowledges separation? Thus they end up wasting a lot of time by reinforcing the seeming separation rather than correcting it. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

God Made not Madness

Is it not strange that you believe to think you made the world you see is arrogance? God made it not. Of this you can be sure. What can He know of the ephemeral, the sinful and the guilty, the afraid, the suffering and lonely, and the mind that lives within a body that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to think He made a world where such things seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness makes a world like this. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles   Facebook.com/JDogACIM   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Jesus Renounced His Specialness

You've got to be willing to surrender the idea of Authorship to God if you want to be able to share in your real power. Humility is the way - not a false humility that says you are in adequate, but a real humility that simply says God is your only Source. You will realize that except for His Love you need nothing. 

When J made statements like, "Of myself I can do nothing," and "I and the Father are one," he wasn't claiming any kind of specialness for himself. In fact, he was giving up any specialness, individuality, or authorship and accepting his true strength - the power of God. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

Not About Abondoning Common Sense

When the Course talks about not judging your brother, what it means is that you don't condemn him. Obviously, you have to make judgments just to cross the street. The Course isn't talking about abandoning that kind of judgment. Without it, you couldn't get out of bed in the morning. One thing the Course has nothing against is common sense. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

Spirit Needs Nothing

When you have a deep desire for anything then you must think you're a body, or separate from God in some way. What else could want something? if you're spirit, or joined with God, then you need nothing. If you remember that you're not a body then you can step back and see that what you desire is valueless. We're not talking about giving up everything physically; we're talking about the way you look at it. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

No Such Thing as Luck

Remember something about luck. If everything is already determined then there's no such thing as luck. Yes, in the world there will be times when you appear to be lucky and unlucky, but that's just duality. That doesn't mean you don't do things and play your part. Remember everything we've talked about in regard to being normal and kind. And while you're doing it, the important thing is that your focus is now on the cause instead of the effect. That's a change that no one can see, but it's the biggest change in the universe, and the only one that matters.  ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

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.

The Endless Present

Any attempt at eternity is a nonstarter as long as there's any unconscious guilt in the mind, period. That guilt must be healed before you can permanently stay free of the past or future. And the way to undo it is not to ignore it, which is exactly what's going on when you shut off and deny the past or future. It's when you forgive the past and your concerns about the future that they are undone, and the endless present becomes truly available to you. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Breaking the Cycle of Birth and Death

It's absolutely essential to remember that unless and until all unconscious guilt is removed from the mind, you cannot stay in the endless present on a permanent basis. It's impossible. Any attempt to remain in the now is doomed to failure without doing the work of true forgiveness. Until you've completely forgiven that which you made and projected outside of yourself, you are not forgiven in your own unconscious mind, and until you are, the cycle of birth and death cannot be broken. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Course in Miracles Communtiy

Dividing is what the ego does. Everything in the world separates, even if only through death, because everything here is symbolic of the thought of separation. Don't fear that. It will always happen as long as there appears to be any kind of form.

There has never been a church or spiritual organization that didn't undergo some kind of a split, usually sooner rather than later. Your job is to forgive it. Do the Course. If there appear to be divisions on the level of form within the Course community, understand that the way out of it is not on the level of form, it's through the forgiveness of the level of form. And that's done at the level of the mind, which has nothing to do with the level of form.  ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The World Has Never Been At All

J connects the concept of oneness to the two words that express the absolute truth, "God is," and then connects it to the subject of time by saying, '...It returns the mind into the endless present, where the past and future cannot be conceived.' And continuing, '...The world has never been at all. Eternity remains a constant state.' He also says, 'This is beyond experience we try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and learned, brings with it the experiences which bear witness that the time the mind itself determined to abandon all but this is now at hand.'  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe    Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Problem With "Being in the Now"

The problem with being 'in the now,' is that doing so cannot remove the unconscious guilt over the original separation from God that is still hidden in the deep recesses of the mind. Because of that, it makes each experience of being in the now temporary by definition, because it fails to remove the blocks that prevent that experience from being permanent. All of which is to say that there's not just a minor difference between the approach of The Power of Now and the real power of A Course in Miracles. It's the difference between being temporarily in the now of an illusion, or being permanently in the presence of reality.  ~ Your Immortal Reality    Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Experience of Revelation

The experience of revelation, where God Himself silently communicates His Love to you, is beyond this world and cannot be captured with words. This experience sometimes happens to people before they are enlightened but it doesn't always happen, and people shouldn't feel slighted if it doesn't. Each one's path is unique, but the way to God always comes back to practicing forgiveness.

Trusting God

In order to really accept God's helper, the Holy Spirit, you must begin to trust God. You cannot trust Him until you recognize that it is not Him, but you, who is responsible for your experiences. You will feel guilty until you understand that this world is not real, and that nothing has really happened. That doesn't mean you shouldn't act responsibly in the illusion. It means you must understand certain things in order to apply the true forgiveness that enables the Holy Spirit to help you the most.

Only One Lack to Correct

The universe of time and space is meant to cover over the one and only problem, which is the seeming separation from God, and especially the one and only solution, which is to go home through forgiveness.

A Course in Miracles and the Absolute Truth

A Course in Miracles is a presentation of the absolute truth, which can be summed in just two words, God Is, but only accepted by a mind that has been prepared for it. To accept it however, requires the kind of mind training the Course gives you. Some people may not choose to be prepared in this lifetime. They want the meaning of God and the world to be open to their own ideas. That's fine if that's what they want for now. But as J asks you in his Course, 'Would God have left the meaning of the world to your interpretation?' ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

About Mystics

A great spiritual master like Buddha or Jesus was about pointing people in the right direction and empowering them as to how to return to their source, return to God; they were about empowering the individual to do that for themselves. Churches and religious institutions hate mystics. The reason they hate mystics is because if you can go to God on your own, then what do you need them for?

The Atonement Principle

The Atonement principle undoes denial and projection at the level of your mind by forgiving what you perceive, and the Holy Spirit undoes the denial and projection at the metaphysical level of your mind at the same time – as well as undoing the whole idea of separation right along with you.

You must practice forgiveness on the level where your experience is. Yes, you have to understand the metaphysics of the Course in order to understand what you’re doing. But your forgiveness is done here, which means you should be practical – and respectful of other people and their experience. In other words, when you’re living your everyday life, be kind. Your job isn’t to correct others. Just help the Holy Spirit clean up your wrong mind by switching to your right mind, and then leave the rest to Him.

And when we say you should be kind to others, it doesn’t mean you should be in denial about the ego thought system. But don’t try to change others; change your own mind instead.

Suicide Is Not An Option

Those who commit suicide, in any manner, seek to end the intolerable psychological pain of their guilt and suffering. Since their unconscious guilt remains intact, they merely end up reincarnating and keeping the problem unresolved. Death is not a way out. True forgiveness is the way out.

A Tale Told By An Idiot

God did not create duality and He did not create the world. If He did, He would be the author of ‘a tale told by an idiot.’ But God is not an idiot. He can only be one of two things.

Notihng But Perfect Oneness

Heaven is real oneness, unlike the idea of being one with the universe, or even one with the mind that is outside of time and space that made the universe. Those ideas are still seemingly outside of God. With true oneness there is only God, and there cannot ever be anything else. That's why no compromise on this idea is possible.

The Course's idea of God is as lofty as it can possibly be, because it is the truth. Oneness cannot be perfect if there is anything else to be aware of. The Course says, '...Heaven is not a place nor a condition. It is merely an awareness of perfect oneness, and the knowledge that there is nothing else; nothing outside this oneness, and nothing else within.'

Saving Thousands of Years

A miracle, according to A Course in Miracles, is a shift in perception over to the Holy Spirit’s way of thinking, and not merely a modification of your own thoughts, forms, or circumstances. The Course says that the miracle can progress you much farther and faster along your spiritual path than would have otherwise been possible. For example, the Text says, ‘The miracle is the only device at your immediate disposal for controlling time.’ And, ‘The miracle substitutes for learning that might have taken thousands of years.’ ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto

You Can Deny the Truth but Can't Ever Lose It

So to make it short and sweet, you fell asleep and started dreaming, and when you are ready to wake up by listening to your memory of God, the Holy Spirit, instead of listening to the ego, then you'll wake up. It's your dream, so only you can wake yourself up.

The Holy Spirit is actually your own Higher Self. But remember, God did not send the Holy Spirit. He was always with you, because even though you could deny the truth, you could never lose it.

Once again, if the dream was created by God and he could wake you up from it, it would be real. It would be a reality that was done to you by an outside force. But it's not. God is still perfect love, and your job is to wake up and return your awareness to where you really are. ~ Your Immortal Reality

Remembering Freedom

There is no change in Heaven because there is no change in God. In the holy instant, in which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you will remember God. For remembering Him IS to remember freedom.

No Freedom Within the Script

The ego’s script is like a carrot and a stick. It tries to suck you into thinking you have freedom within the script, when the only real freedom you will ever find is completely outside the whole mess.

Salvation is Undoing

Use your mind to chose between the body and true spirit, and by doing so forgive the world. It is through your forgiveness that your ego will be undone. As the Course says, "Salvation is undoing."

Purpose of the Body

What could the purpose of the body be but specialness? And it is this that makes it frail and helpless in its own defense. It was conceived to make YOU frail and helpless. The goal of separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no goal. Purpose is of the mind. And minds can change as they desire.

A Course in Miracles is Not A Movement

A Course in Miracles is not a movement; there are more than enough of those. You don't have to take over the world. It doesn't matter whether the Course is popular or not. J knows what he's doing.

Those who are ready for the Course will find it. His Course is unique. It gives an individual a chance to learn that he or she is not an individual, and that they are never alone. It gives you the opportunity to commune with the Holy Spirit and ultimately, God. It accelerates your return to God by helping the Holy Spirit heal you.   ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Real Freedom

The only real freedom you have is to choose to return to God by listening to the Voice for Him, instead of continuing indefinitely within a fixed system that has nothing to do with Him. Your brain isn't hard wired to know God; your mind tells your brain what to do! Be glad the universe and your brain have nothing to do with God, and that there's a way to return to His Universe.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Sacrifice is Not Love

It is not love that asks a sacrifice. But fear demands the sacrifice of love, for in love's presence fear cannot abide. For hate to be maintained, love must be feared; and only sometimes present, sometimes gone.

God Does Not Respond to Separation

As far as the idea of separation from God goes, because your idea is not of God, He does not respond to it. To respond to it would be to give it reality. If God himself were to acknowledge anything except the idea of perfect oneness, there would no longer be perfect oneness. There would no longer be a perfect state of Heaven for you to return to. You never really left anyway. You're still there, but you have entered into a nightmare state of illusion. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The New F Word

Pursah: If what the Course is saying is true – that everyone who comes to this world is delusional or else they wouldn’t think they were here in the first place – then if you have a hit book, all it means is that you are admired by a large group of disturbed people.

Gary: That was a joke, right?

Pursah: Yes. Don’t worry about the reactions of people who take jokes like that seriously – whoever they may be. Don’t be defensive and walk on eggshells. Just put it out there. If somebody doesn’t like you because of it, forgive them.

Gary: There was a time, in the very recent past, when I would have used another f word.

Pursah: Now you have the new f word. Forgive them.

Your Thoughts, Your Experience

Your thoughts determine your experience of life, not what happens in your life. What happens on the level of form - how long you live, how rich or poor you are, whether or not you're faced with the challenge of heart disease, stroke, cancer, or what have you - was all determined before you ever appeared to be born. The instant you chose the ego on that metaphysical level, everything else was a done deal. That's why life here isn't fair. And don't ask why you should even bother! I just said you do determine your experience with your thoughts, and your experience is what's important.

Life not in Heaven is Impossible

Remember what A Course in Miracles says about your seeming life and death in this world, 'In any state apart from Heaven life is illusion. At best it seems like life; at worst, like death. Yet both are judgments on what is not life, equal in their inaccuracy and lack of meaning. Life not in Heaven is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere.' ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto    Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

No Such Thing as Vicarious Salvation

The focus should always be on doing your forgiveness lessons and going home, not on the level of form and the body, which cannot be spiritualized. People are always looking for vicarious salvation. They want to be enlightened by following an enlightened one and having it bestowed on them. It doesn’t work that way. In addition, there are so many people out there presenting themselves as some kind of a master and saying they’re going to teach you ‘mastery,’ that it’s comical. If you drove a nail through the wrist of these people, it would hurt like hell. J really was a master, and he could feel no pain because the guiltless mind cannot suffer.

Virtual Reality Game

The body, the universe, and everything in it are just pictures in your mind, parts of a virtual reality game. Perhaps at times it's a rather convincing forgery of life but it's a fake. Don't look there for your salvation. Always look where the Answer really is - in the mind where the Holy Spirit abides - and you'll find it.   ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Why You Keep Reincarnating

Gary: So I keep reincarnating because of this unconscious guilt and fear that’s in my mind. You’re saying if the guilt was healed, and I didn’t have this hidden fear, then I wouldn’t have any need for a body, the world, or even the universe?

Arten: Excellent. I knew you weren’t a dumb bastard. I tried to tell J, but he wouldn’t listen.

How to Get in Touch with Your True Identity

A chief goal of A Course in Miracles is to lead the student to an Identity, and associated experiences, that are not of this world. These non-intellectual experiences, which are paradoxically the result of intellectual processes, are in fact the forerunner to the Holy Spirit's permanent answer to this world.

Strength vs Weakness

If you need something - and you would have to lack it to need it - then you can remember that it's just a substitute for God, and that a sense of separation from God is the only real problem. If you need something then you're coming from weakness, but if you need nothing then you can come from the strength of Christ.    ~ The Disappearance of the Universe    Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

There's Only One Truth!

Everybody is trying to find and express their truth. Their so-called truth is actually designed to keep them stuck where they are. What J is teaching in his Course is that the truth is not different for everyone. It is not relative. He's saying the truth is the truth whether you understand and agree with it or not. The truth is not subject to your interpretation, and neither is his Course. He's the Teacher, and you're the student. If that's not the case, then why do the Course? ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Not Accepting False Justifications for Anger

You are not asked to be crucified, which was part of my own teaching contribution. You are merely asked to follow my example in the face of much less extreme temptations to mis-perceive, and not to accept them as false justifications for anger. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles

Forgive What You Made

As you're walking through your dream movie, which you wrote and directed and then forgot about so it would seem real, forgive what you made and return to God.

The Real Goal is Heaven

The only real power you have here is the power to choose between the ego and the Holy spirit. In the process, if you happen to change dimensions of time through the Holy Spirit's collapsing of time and thus have a different scenario play itself out within the fixed script, then you should consider that to be a fringe benefit. That's not what the Course is about though. The real goal is Heaven, but the short term goal is peace, and the end of all pain and suffering.  ~ Your Immortal Reality

Feeling Superior

Everyone participates equally in the script and ends up with just as many so-called good lives and bad lives as everyone else. How much money or success you get has absolutely nothing to do with how spiritually enlightened you are. There's a danger of thinking you're better than other people if you're doing well, even if your feeling of superiority is a subtle one - but that's just a form of the projection of your unconscious guilt.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto

You are the Same as Jesus

The Jesus of A Course in Miracles is not the same version of Jesus in Christianity, and the two thought systems are not compatible. For Christianity, their suffering image of J the body is extra special. He is different than you in the sense that he alone is God's only begotten son. But the J of the Course informs you that because you and he are one, then you are equally God's only begotten Son or Christ - not any different than him - and furthermore, you can eventually experience this.

What Will Money Buy You?

Money won’t buy you happiness, but it will buy you food, shelter, clothing, methods of communication, and a lot of other things that aren’t bad. There’s nothing wrong with making it big either, but why make it real? It’s fun to know the truth! You don’t have to take everything so damn seriously.

Looking with Kindness

Even though what you do isn't the focus, what you do is a result of what you think. So sometimes you can tell a lot about people by the way they are. How you treat other people is a pretty good indication of how you feel about yourself. If you're looking at people with hostility, you're saying that you have a mind that's in conflict. If you're looking at them with kindness, it's a symptom of a mind that has peace. Not only that, but it will determine and reinforce how you feel about yourself.

Real Forgiveness Denies the False

As a response to the false condition of separation, real forgiveness denies what isn't true and accepts what is true. As J puts it in his Course, 'It denies the ability of anything not of God to affect you.'

Nothing's Happened

 If nothing's happened, and if the Course teaches anything it's that nothing's happened, then you're innocent. Thus as you forgive your brothers and sisters, your mind realizes simultaneously that you are forgiven.

The Universe is Overrated

There's nothing in your universe that doesn't follow the pattern of decay and death, and there's nothing here that can seemingly live without something else dying. Your world is quite impressive until you learn to really look. But most people don't want to really look, not just because it isn't a pretty picture, but because the world is meant to cover over an unconscious thought system that governs their lives but which they are not consciously aware of.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Forgiving No Matter What Happens

To forgive means to give ahead of time. In other words, your attitude is that you're ready to forgive, no matter what it is that comes up in your awareness. At first, that seems like a tall order. Yet I promise you the day will come when you'll be capable of laughing at anything the ego throws at you - just like J could. The day will come when you'll be ready to be like J and leave the script, and serve as a light for others to follow out of the dream.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

Your Unconscious Guilt

The guilt in your unconscious is more terrible and even more acute than what you see or feel on the surface because of you're proximity to it - it's in your unconscious. That was the reason for the whole mis-creation of the universe in the first place. The need to escape your guilt and your terrible, misguided fear of God. Now you have a world of bodies where the contents of your mind, are seen symbolically as being outside of you, in the world and in other people. You get to be the innocent victim of the world rather than the maker of it.

Nothing Spiritual About the Universe

It will take time for the principles of A Course in Miracles to be understood by society, and the overwhelming majority of people will continue to believe as they always have. They'll continue to live in denial. They will try to bring God into the world and spiritualize the universe, thinking there is some kind of compassionate intelligence behind what is really a murderous thought. They will see death as a part of a "circle of life," when it is really just a symbol of the great mistake. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo
