The
Voice of the Holy Spirit does not command, because It is incapable of
arrogance. It does not demand, because It does not seek control. It
does not overcome, because It does not attack. It merely reminds. It
is compelling only because of what It reminds you OF. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles

The Purpose of Your Learning
The
purpose of your learning is to enable you to bring the quiet with you,
and to heal distress and turmoil. This is not done by avoiding them and
seeking a haven of isolation for yourself.

The Universe Will Cease to Exist
Pursah:
When the false universe is finished being corrected by the Holy Spirit,
it will no longer appear to exist. I say it will no longer APPEAR to
exist because it does not exist in reality. The true Universe is God's
Universe, or Heaven - and Heaven has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do
with the false universe. However, there is a way of LOOKING at your
universe that will help you return to your true home with God.
Gary: You're talking about the universe like it's some kind of a mistake. But the Bible says that God created the world, and most everybody believes He did, not to mention all the world's religions. My friends and I think that God produced the world so He could know Himself experientially, which I guess is a pretty common New Age belief. Didn't God create polarity, duality, and all of the opposites in this world of subject and object?
Pursah: In a word, no. 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. He is either perfect Love, as the Bible says when it momentarily stumbles upon the truth, or He's an idiot. You can't have it both ways. Jesus was no idiot either, because he wasn't taken in by the false universe.

Forgiving Yourself
Extend the same forgiveness to your brothers and sisters that God extends to you. That's how you make it yours. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe
Mikey's Note: Of course, that same forgiveness is that nothing's happened, which means you're innocent. Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

How to Find Joy
The ego believes in opposites - things like
pleasure and pain. The Holy Spirit says there are no opposites, and that
your true joy can have no counterpart. As the Course puts it, 'How else
can you find joy in a joyless place except by realizing that you are
not there?'

Money Won't Buy You Happiness
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. Why would you be envious of those who don’t know the truth?

this world, pronouncing it as true.

The Course is Pure Non-Dualism
We’re teaching a purist, non-dualistic
interpretation of the truth – the way the Course was meant to be
understood. As time goes on, there will be more who teach the Course in
this manner, although we’re not as polite as most of them will be. Right
now there’s a tendency for people to borrow from the Course and then do
their own thing. There will be many more purists in the future. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

God Is
The Workbook puts it this way about the two
words that speak the absolute truth, '...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.'
Of course the phrase "God is" must be taken in the light of pure non-dualism. God is, and nothing else is. It's easy enough for people to get the first part of that statement, that God is. It's very difficult to accept the second part, that nothing else is. That's why we cease to speak, because there is nothing else. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto

The Experience of Revelation
Although the experience of revelation can
never be translated into words, there is one quality of it that is so
unique it clings to the memory. It happens in an instant where one is
given an experience of being outside time and space, and even beyond that. You become one with something so big it’s beyond size.
The clearest quality of it that’s completely unlike anything of this universe is that it is constant. There is no change or interruption in its limitless power; it doesn’t shift or waver. It gives you a taste of something that can be relied upon; something real – the joy of which is beyond belief. I knew then that I had been communicated to by God. ~ Gary Renard, The Disappearance of the Universe

forgiveness here; the dream that leads to the real world. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

You Can Still Have Your Life
So
as long as I remember to forgive, I can still go about my business.
While I'm busy reversing the thinking of the world, I don't have to
neglect my personal life and the things I want to accomplish. By
knowing these things are idols, or substitutes for God projected into a
dream script, I can forgive them at the same time. ~ Gary Renard, The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJFphoto Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Is Your Path Working?
...I had also learned that the REAL test of
whether or not one was progressing on their chosen spiritual path had
nothing do do with "spiritual experiences." Indeed, the real questions
one should be asking were: Am I becoming more loving? More peaceful?
More forgiving? Have I taken responsibility for my life? Do I
understand the folly of judgment? THAT was how to tell if a path was
working for someone. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The World Does Nothing to Him
Once
the patient or the healer accepts the Holy Spirit's forgiveness, then
this is his attitude, '...The world does nothing to him. He only thought
it did. Nor does he do anything to the world, because he was mistaken
about what it is. Herein is the release from guilt and sickness both,
for they are one.'

The World is not a Divine Creation
J is very clear about what most people
erroneously make out to be some kind of a beautiful, Divine Creation of
God. To give you just one of many examples, in the Text he says of this
world of false idols:
An idol is established by belief, and when it is withdrawn the idol “dies.” This is the anti-Christ; the strange idea there is a power past omnipotence, a place beyond the infinite, a time transcending the eternal. Here the world of idols has been set by the idea this power and place and time are given form, and shape the world where the impossible has happened. Here the deathless come to die, the all-encompassing to suffer loss, the timeless to be made the slaves of time. Here does the changeless change; the peace of God, forever given to all living things, give way to chaos. And the Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, come to hate a little while; to suffer pain and finally to die. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe

The Pursuit of Unreal Happiness
Elusive happiness, or happiness in changing
form that shifts with time and place, is an illusion that has no
meaning. Happiness must be constant, because it is attained by giving
up the wish for the INconstant. Joy cannot be perceived except through
constant vision. ~ J-Dog, The Voice of A Course in Miracles Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Holy Spirit's Script
Whatever appears to be causing your pain,
whether it's a circumstance or a relationship or both, may or may not
disappear when you practice forgiveness. The ego's script doesn't always
appear to change when you want it to. But it is possible to end all
the suffering that's called for by the ego's script and have peace
instead of fear. That's the Holy Spirit's script. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo
