Don't Be a Slave

Say this to anyone and you are slave: “I will forgive you if you meet my needs, for in your slavery is my release.” And you will seek to rid yourself of guilt in further bargains which can give no hope, but only greater pain and misery. How fearful has forgiveness now become, and how distorted is the end it seeks.

God Did Not Create Bodies

The “reality” of death is firmly rooted in the belief that God’s Son is a body. And if God created bodies, death would indeed be real. But God would not be loving. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles   Facebook.com/JDogACIM   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Unholy Relationship

An unholy relationship is based on differences, where each one thinks the other has what he has not. They come together, each to complete himself and rob the other. They stay until they think that there’s is nothing left to steal, and then move on. And so they wander through a world of strangers, unlike themselves, living with their bodies perhaps under a common roof that shelters neither; in the same room and yet a world apart. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles   Facebook.com/JDogACIM

Roles are Reversed in Different Lifetimes

People may think they’re more enlightened because of their good karma, or that God has smiled upon them, or that they’re just plain better than other people but 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.

On the other hand, the people who are having the seemingly less successful lifetimes feel guilty because they’re not doing better! Remember, guilt can be projected onto yourself as well as onto others. In any case, the roles people play are reversed in different lifetimes.

What is it For?

Gary: The news sucks us into seeing someone else as the guilty party - whether it's the terrorists, the politicians and their witch hunts, those people who are guilty of crimes, or at least whomever the prosecutors and the news media want us to believe are guilty - because getting us to project our guilt onto others is good for certain careers and ratings. On some talk shows, the game is about who ever can put other people down the best. On the news, the more problems they can get us to worry about, the better. All of this keeps our minds running wild.

Arten: Precisely, which is exactly what the ego wants. As the Course teaches you, '...Preoccupations with problems set up to be incapable of solution are favorite ego devices for impeding learning progress. In all these diversionary tactics, however, the one question that is never asked by those who pursue them is, "What for?" This is the question that you must learn to ask in connection with everything. What is the purpose? Whatever it is, it will direct your efforts automatically.'

Gary: The purpose should be forgiveness and the Atonement.

Your Sinlessness is Guarranteed by God

The self you made, evil and full of sin, is meaningless. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God, and light and joy and peace abide in you. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles

Suffering is but a Dream

Loss is not loss when properly perceived. Pain is impossible. There is no grief with any cause at all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but a dream. This is the truth, at first to be but said and then repeated many times; and next to be accepted as but partly true, with many reservations. Then to be considered seriously more and more, and finally accepted as the truth.

Forgive All of It

Just keep doing your forgiveness homework. Remember, you need to forgive all of it, no matter what may appear to happen in the future. Only God is real.

What to Do in a Tragedy

When it comes to what seems to be a terrible tragedy, it's very easy to get drawn into it. Yes, you have to forgive, but you also need to be aware of a couple of things in such a situation.

First, choosing to recognize the unreality of the dream doesn't mean you shouldn't be sensitive to the needs and the feelings of people who are involved in a nightmare like that. How would you have felt at that time (going through the death of a loved one or what have you) if some jerk came up to you and started telling you how it was all just an illusion so you shouldn't feel bad? It would just make you angry that your pain wasn't being respected. You can’t expect bereaved people to do anything except grieve. Always allow the feelings and beliefs of others.

Second, it would be equally insipid to tell people at a time like that it's all a script they chose to experience. Let people learn the truth when they're pursuing the truth, not when they're grieving for their friends or relatives.  ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Your Function in Salvation

You have a function in salvation. Its pursuit will bring you joy. But the pursuit of specialness must bring you pain. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles   Facebook.com/JDogACIM

Be Kind

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.

Marriage License

Gary: Say, I had to renew my driver’s license recently. Why don’t they make marriage licenses like driver’s licenses? They could be good for five years or whatever, then if either spouse doesn’t want to renew the license when it expires, that would be it!

Arten: Thank, you Gary. I’m sure I speak for Pursah and myself, as well as the entire spiritual community, when I say that we’re refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view.

Pursah: Do you have anything sane to say?

Why I Love Arten and Pursah So Much

Why I love Arten and Pursah so much can be summed up in this quote from them when they appeared to Gary Renard for the very first time…

We are free to be teachers and not politicians. We don't have to suck up to you so you can feel all warm and fuzzy about us instead of learning something. Your approval of what we have to say is not required. We have no need to be popular. We have no stake in manipulating the level of form so we can make a tale told by an idiot appear to be going our way. Our condition is one of peace, but our message will be firm.

God Is

Oneness is simply the idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No mind holds anything but Him. We say "God is," and then we cease to speak, for in that knowledge words are meaningless. There are no lips to speak them, and no part of mind sufficiently distinct to feel that it is now aware of something not itself. It has united with its Source. And like its Source Itself, it merely is. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles   Facebook.com/JDogACIM   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Becoming a Master

Gary: How long does it take to become a master?

Arten: Everybody asks that, and nobody likes the answer at first. The answer is it happens when it happens. Still, the time comes before that when you're so happy that the question doesn't really matter anymore!

Reversing the Laws of the World

Your holiness reverses all the laws of the world. It is beyond every restriction of time, space, distance and limits of any kind. Your holiness is totally unlimited in its power because it establishes you as a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles

Forgive Those Who Compromise the Course

Making the World Meaningless

When J said, 'Renounce the world and the ways of the world; make them meaningless to you,' he meant that what you are seeing doesn't exist. It's nothing because it's not really there. How can nothing mean anything? If you make it mean something, good or bad, then you're trying to change nothing into something. The only thing you should make it is meaningless.   ~ The Disappearance of the Universe   Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo
