Symbols

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; intellectual concepts, theology, philosophical speculation – forget 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

Have to Heal the Cause

Only false healing can give way to fear, so sickness will be free to strike again. False healing can indeed remove a form of pain and sickness. But the cause remains, and will not lack effects.

You Don't See With Your Eyes

When you are apparently awake during the day and you have your eyes open, it’s not really the body’s eyes you are seeing with any more than when you’re asleep at night dreaming. It’s always your mind that is seeing. It’s always your mind that is hearing and feeling and doing the other things you give the body’s senses credit for. There is no exception to this. The body itself is just a part of your projection. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto

Forgive What You Made and Return to God

As you're walking through you dream movie, which you wrote and directed and then forgot about so it would seem real, forgive what you made and return to God. Demonstrate that you have true wisdom by seeing the innocence in everyone, and thus making it your own. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Formula of Forgiveness

Here's an outline; a companion to the Course's formula of forgiveness, which says:
a) that the cause should be identified
b) then let go, and
c) be replaced.

That's the way to remember God. The Course also says that the first two steps in this process require your cooperation. The final one does not. In other words, the Holy Spirit's part is not your responsibility. That's why you have to trust Him. Still, it's helpful to think of yourself as choosing His strength, because ultimately you are exactly the same as Him and Christ. Through true forgiveness, you are becoming aware that you are the same as J and the Holy Spirit - One with God and Christ.

Co-Creator with God

There’s nothing meaningful in the concept of being a ‘co-creator’ with God on the level of the world, because J is saying that the only meaningful thing the mind can do that involves any kind of creative ability is to give up whatever appears to be separate. That doesn’t mean you give it up physically, which would just make it real to the mind; you give it up by not believing in it, and choose perfect spirit as your identity instead.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

No Pressure

J tells us that we shouldn't feel any pressure. He said salvation would come to each mind when it was supposed to. He advises us to just give people our love, our forgiveness and our experience - and let the Holy Spirit take care of the rest. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

It's Just a Dream

True forgiveness means you don't judge and condemn another. There's not really any sin and guilt out there, because nothing's happened except in a dream, and dreams are not real. So J counsels you in his Course not to make the ideas of sin and guilt real in the people, events, and situations you see in the world.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Remembering the Truth Can Bring You Peace

Remembering the truth can bring you peace no matter what the seeming event or person is who is being forgiven. As long as you remember the truth, you're doing your job. Sometimes your dream seems like a nice one, but then without warning it becomes a nightmare. That's the re-enactment of the separation from God. Yet neither the bad or the good that seemed to precede it are true.

As the Course reminds you, '...Fairy tales can be pleasant or fearful, but no one calls them true. Children may believe them, and so, for a while, the tales are true for them. Yet when reality dawns, the fantasies are gone. Reality has not gone in the meanwhile.' ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

True Empathy

To empathize does not mean to join in suffering, for that is what you must REFUSE to understand. That is the ego's interpretation of empathy, and is always used to form a special relationship in which the suffering is shared. The capacity to empathize is very useful to the Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. His way is very different. He does not understand suffering, and would have you teach it is not understandable. When He relates through you, He does not relate through your ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, understanding that healing pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts to enter into it, and lighten it by sharing the delusion. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles   Facebook.com/JDogACIM   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Self-Judgment

Gary: One of the things that really bothers me isn't just when I judge others, it's when they judge me.

Pursah: Their judgment of you is really your own self-judgment that is seen as being outside of you. They're not even there. Yes, it looks like they're really there and the judgment is outside of you, but it's not. When you forgive the other, you're really forgiving what's in your own mind. Their call for love really is your call for love.   ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Miracles are all the Same

It's just as important to forgive the little things as the apparently big things. Anything that disturbs your peace of mind is disturbing your peace of mind, and that's not the peace of God. You have to be willing to forgive everything equally. That's why the Course says miracles are all the same.

Real Spirit

Real spirit is whole and permanent. That's your immortal reality. So no matter what appears to be happening, including death and the in-between-life, the truth is that there are only two things to choose from, your reality with God, or anything else. Now all you've got to do is use the mind to choose between God and anything else.  ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto

Only the Mind Gets Sick

Psychotherapy is the only form of therapy there is. Since only the mind can be sick, only the mind can be healed. Only the mind is in need of healing. This does not appear to be the case, for the manifestations of this world seem real indeed. Psychotherapy is necessary so that an individual can begin to question their reality. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles   Facebook.com/JDogACIM

The Only Thing That Really Matters

We came here to give people a spiritual message, a message that not everyone is ready for yet, and this is it: When you are ready to accept that the only thing that really matters in your illusory lifetime is the successful completion of your lessons of true forgiveness, then you will be truly wise indeed.

Giving Up Nothing

Nobody is asking you to give up a lot in exchange for nothing. It's really the opposite. You will eventually come to realize that you are giving up nothing in exchange for everything - a state so awesome and joyous that to describe it in words is impossible. To attain this state of Being, however, you must be willing to undergo a difficult process of correction by the Holy Spirit.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

True Humility

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 inadequate, but a real humility that simply says God is your only Source. You will realize that except for His Love you need nothing.   ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Make it Real, or Stay Stuck Here?

When you meet people in this lifetime whom you’ve had dealings and special hate interests with before in other lifetimes, it’s because you’re orbiting each other, just as planets orbit the sun. Because the unconscious mind has retained the memory of them, you’ll have conflict, sometimes right away and sometimes later in the relationship. In some lifetimes you'll be the victim, and in others, the victimizer.

The question is, what are you going to use it for this time, freedom or bondage? Are you going to get that you are not a victim and take responsibility for dreaming, or are you going to make it real and stay stuck here?  ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo
