Enjoy It More

As you forgive others you're forgiven, so you get more in touch with your innocence. You feel less guilty. I think it's ironic that even though you're realizing more and more that the world isn't real, you actually end up enjoying it more, not less. I mean, when people first get into this kind of work, they think that they're giving something up by seeing it as being a dream that's not real. But what I find is that I enjoy my life more. It's like when I go tot he movies, I know it's not real, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying it. In fact, I enjoy it more. I like listening to music more today than ever. To me, this isn't about giving up the walks on the beach or the beautiful sunsets or the great art. The less guilty you feel and the less fear you feel, the more you enjoy those things. ~ Gary Renard, Love Has Forgotten No One  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Two Choices, Not Millions

No matter how complicated life seems to get, no matter how many billions of people and millions of choices there seem to be, there are always really just two things to choose between, and only one of those choices represents reality. That reality is love. And love has forgotten no one. By following the Holy Spirit, you will be led to the experience of that reality. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One

The Universe is Coming from You

As you get used to the idea of the world coming FROM you instead of AT you, it becomes more and more impossible for you to react to it the way you used to. Now forgiveness is justified. And of course you experience more as you go along that YOU are the one who's really being forgiven. As you let go of judgment and replace it with forgiveness, you can feel yourself being freed. All judgment is really self-judgment, and all forgiveness is really self-forgiveness. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

There is no Universe

There is no universe of time and space. There is only a projection of a universe of time and space. So you're not a victim of it. There's no power in being a victim, but there's plenty of power in being at cause. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Stop Making it Real

What would the Holy Spirit advise you to do about a situation? STOP MAKING IT REAL. Your judgments and reactions make it real, but now you can realize that the reason you see people as being guilty is because you wanted the guilt to be in them instead of you. So to undo it, you reverse the projection. You realize the guilt is NOT in them but in you, except it's not really in you either, because the whole concept of guilt was made up by the ego to make it real!

Intelligence Without Love

The thing to remember is that REAL love forgives everyone and everything without exception. It knows what people really are. They're not real people. They're perfect love, which is the same way they were created by God. They may think they're people. They may even think they're intelligent. But let me tell you something: intelligence without love is nothing. So the kind of real love we're talking about would not be people's love but the Holy Spirit's love. The Holy Spirit is the representative of God on this level. He is the memory of what you are. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

A Superficial Teaching

If you tell people to choose love instead of fear, which is a superficial teaching unless it's explained much further, most of them will think you're talking about THEIR love. But that's not what the Course is talking about. It's talking about the perfect love of God. The world's idea of love is what the Course would call SPECIAL love, because it doesn't apply to everyone, only those special individuals whom you have chosen to love. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Perfect Love Cast Out Fear

Real love is perfect love. It's not the world's idea of love. This love is not only perfect, but as both the Bible and A Course in Miracles say, "Perfect love cast out fear." Perfect love and fear cannot coexist. Perfect love is all-encompassing. This is a kind of love that you cannot withhold from anyone or else you will not experience it for yourself. If it's not all-encompassing, then it's not real. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

The Source of Your Projection

You assign the reason for your upset to be something outside of yourself, because that's where you projected it. So you think you're upset because you're not going to have enough money for your retirement, or because the terrorists are going to blow up your airplane, and you forget that it's not the projection at all that's really upsetting you, but its source in the mind. And the solution lies in your forgiveness of this illusory projection , which is your small part of the job, allowing the Holy Spirit to take care of the big part of the job, which is the healing that you can't see but can experience. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Fundamental Shifts

As you forgive, there will be fundamental shifts that will be taking place in your unconscious mind, and eventually your experience will start to change. You'll gradually shift from the experience of being a body to the experience of being what you really are, which is love, or pure spirit, which in the Course are synonymous, because at the level of spirit they are exactly the same as God. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Forgiveness Releases People

True forgiveness releases people because they haven't really done anything, because you're the one who made them up in the first place. What you're seeing is YOUR projection of a universe of time and space. You've taken responsibility for making it up, not in a bad way but in a powerful way. Now you're coming from cause and not effect. This is the thought reversal that the Course is talking about.

Forgive the Bastards

I used to think it would take a tremendous amount of work to forgive the world like J did. But what I'v learned more and more as I go along is that it actually takes more time to judge people than it does to forgive them! I mean, you you go along, forgiveness becomes so much a part of you that eventually you won't have to think about it as much. It will become more and more automatic. So the amount of time it takes to do it decreases over the years. But you spend your time judging people, now you have to make up some story about about why they're not worthy of your forgiveness. It would take less time to just forgive the bastards. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

It's Not a Religion

A Course in Miracles is not a religion. It's not something you have to believe in or proselytize for. You don't have to convince anyone it's the right way. At the end of the day, spirituality is a personal thing. It's something that's done between you and the Holy Spirit or Jesus or Y'shua or whatever you want to call it. It doesn't matter. In the end, it leads to a personal experience of our intimate relationship with God. It's like a perfect, cosmic orgasm that can't possibly be put into words. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Spiritual Sight

The Holy Spirit doesn't think in terms of separation. It sees wholeness everywhere. And by "sees" I mean that's the way the Holy Spirit thinks. It's the way you THINK that constitutes spiritual sight. It doesn't have anything to do with the body's eyes, even though you can see symbols of spirit in the world. They're still just symbols. Reality cannot be seen with the body's eyes, but it can be experienced by the mind.

If you want to return to spirit, think like the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit overlooks the body, which is a false image, and thinks of the truth that is beyond the veil of illusion. This truth is perfect oneness and innocence, exactly the same as God. And thinking of other people that way IS spiritual sight.

Contrast

The ego loves differences. How can you have judgment without differences? How can you have war and murder and violence without differences? So the ego wants you to think that all this separation you're seeing is true. That's what makes it real for you - your belief in it. That's what gives it its power. That's what gives it power over you. The ego craves contrasts and cons you into believing in them in the world, but the Holy Spirit sees sameness. Yes, the Holy Spirit will contrast its thought system with the thought system of the ego. But that is the proper use of contrast, because one is true and one is not. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One    Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

In Your Natural State

In your natural state you're no different from God, and it's not arrogance to think that. It's arrogance to think that somehow you could be separate from God. The truth is you can't be separate from God, except in dreams, which is why you could say that the Course takes the idea of the universe of time and space being an illusion and further refines it into the idea that this is a dream you will awaken from, and that awakening is enlightenment. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

No Namaste for You

There are many in India who practice an idea that we’ve (Americans) have borrowed from them. You see and hear it at a lot of Unity churches in this country. It’s the idea of Namaste, which means, “The divinity in me bows down to the divinity in you.” That’s certainly a step in the right direction, but, it doesn’t go far enough.

When you say, “The divinity in me bows down to the divinity in you,” you’re limiting that person to a tiny speck of time and space. You’re making individuality real. You’re also making the two of you separate, like a subject and an object. What J did was overlook the body. It’s not that his body’s eyes didn’t appear to see other bodies. But he understood that he wasn’t seeing with the body’s eyes and that he wasn’t actually in a body. He knew what he was seeing with was his mind. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One

Seeing Others

When people get into this kind of work, they often focus on the fact that life is an illusion, which is NOT the thing you want to be focusing on. That's because if it's true that as you see them you will see yourself, and it IS true, then if you go through life seeing people and the world as an illusion, then you will eventually think of yourself in your own unconscious mind as an illusion. You'll feel empty and meaningless, which will leave you depressed.

Remember, your unconscious mind will translate whatever you think about others to be a message about YOU. That's because even though you're not aware of it, your unconscious mind knows everything, including the fact that there's just one of you that thinks it's here. That's why everything you think about others is really a message from you, to you, and about you. And that's how your unconscious mind will think of it. So you definitely don't want to think of people as illusions, or that's what you'll think you are, too. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

You're It

People may appear to be separate because what they're seeing is a projection that's based on the idea of separation, but that's a trick. No matter how many times the ego appears to divide, it's just an illusion. There's really only one being that thinks it has separated itself from its Source. Yes, it's appearing as many, but there's really always just one, and you're it. Yet the mind appears to keep dividing. then it projects those divisions, which results in more and more people appearing to be here in the projection. But it's all smoke and mirrors. There's always just one ego no matter how many different images you see. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One    Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Terminator

The one real problem is the idea that we've separated ourselves from God, and the one real solution is to undo the idea of separation and go home. In order to lead us home, the Holy Spirit gives us the simple truth in the face of the ego's complexities. But the ego won't quit. It's like the Terminator - it just keeps coming. But the truth that undoes the ego will win in the long run, because the Holy Spirit is perfect, and the ego isn't. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Projection Follows Denial

A psychologist will tell you that projection always follows denial. That's because when you deny something, it has to go somewhere. Now once something is denied, it becomes unconscious, and the Course speaks volumes about denial. So you forget that you denied it, and then when it's projected outward, you think the projection you're looking at is reality. You forget that you made it, because it's been denied! So it's your projection, but you're not aware of that. And then the Course teaches that "projection makes perception." That means you actually made what you're looking at, but then you forgot, and you take it as as reality. You forget that's it's a mis-creation of your own making.

As J puts it, "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." ~ Love Has Forgotten No One

The Answer

A Course in Miracles is teaching that the full awareness of the Atonement "is the recognition that the separation never occurred." In other words, the separation is a delusion, a dream, a projection of a universe of time and space. And the answer to that delusion cannot be found on our own with just our intellect, which the ego often uses to keep us seemingly stuck here. The separation is a false experience. And the REAL answer to the separation is to replace it with a true experience, which is the awareness of perfect Oneness with God. In that condition, you are o longer a separate being, but one with all creation, and that experience IS the Answer to what we call life. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

You're Not a Victim of God

The first thing you gotta do is top being a victim. For example, if this world was made by God, then you would be a victim of God. You would be the victim of a force that is outside of you that did it to you. But the world was not made by God, and as one of the early Workbook lessons in the Course puts it, "I am not a victim of the world I see." ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

How You Think of Others

How you see people, or think of them, will determine how you think of yourself, and ultimately what you believe you are: a body or spirit. And what would you rather be? Something temporary that is doomed to die or something permanent that CANNOT die? And which experience you'll have is determined by how you think of others! ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

The Experience of Time

We experience time as linear and that we're making all of this up as we go along. That's a false experience. The truth is holographic. It all already happened. And if it all already happened, then you can't be making it up as you go along. You don't get to create the way that it is. You already did that at the beginning of time. Everything that appeared to happen after that was already a done deal. Most people don't like that idea, yet that idea is part of a thought system that, if they were to understand and apply it, could save them an incredible amount of time with their illusory experience. We won't always have a choice as to what we experience, but we will always have a choice as to HOW we experience it. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

The Real You is Already Perfect

If you undid the false you, which is the ego, then the real you would be all that's left. You don't have to struggle to be the real you. You do not have to evolve. The real you is already perfect. What needs to be done is to remove the barriers to the experience and the expression of that perfection.  Incidentally, that perfection has nothing to do with anything in this world, but something that is not of this world. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Undoing the Ego

This is a book about spirituality, REAL spirituality, not what has been passing for spirituality in the pop media over the last two decades. Spirituality has become totally confused with the self-help movement. By the time you finish this book, you'll not only know the difference between the two, but you'll also know why only one of them will ever make you happy.

There's a difference between a spirituality that will save you a lot of time and spiritualities that won't. Those that save you time will introduce you to the idea of "undoing the ego' and show you how to do it. ~ Love Has Forgotten No One: The Answer to Life Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Snow in Fire

Each day that you forgive, the effects of all the world's mistakes are melted as snow into a burning fire. No more guilt, no more karma, no more fear of what may be. For you have met yourself and declared your innocence, and all that follows is as natural as God. ~ Your Immortal Reality

The End of Reincarnation

When your forgiveness lessons are complete, then not one trace of guilt will remain in your unconscious mind. At that point, you will break the cycle of birth and death, and never dream of going into a body again. That is the end of reincarnation. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo
