During the crucifixion, the Roman soldiers were angry and fearful because J wasn’t suffering. One of them screamed at him, “Man, why don’t you feel any pain?” J said, “If there is no guilt in your mind, there is no pain.” The soldier stuck a spear in his side, but J didn’t react at all. The soldier then became even more frightened and ran away.

J had decided to lay his body aside for the final time. Just before he did so, he looked at Mary and formed a very gentle smile on his face. Then she did the same. As they looked into each other’s eyes, they both knew he had overcome death. Nadav saw the same thing, and the three of them subtly and gently acknowledged the truth within each other.

Because they were not affected by the death of J, Nadav and Mary knew they would not be coming back to this world to live another lifetime. As both the Bible and the Course agree, “The last to be overcome will be death.” Mary and Nadav hugged each other closely at the funeral, then they went their separate ways.

The first three enlightened ones had fulfilled their mission. Yes, there were others before them who knew everything one has to know in order to be enlightened, and had even lived it, like Shankara and Lao-Tzu. But there was one thing that was missing. You can’t completely undo the separation from God without completely acknowledging God and recognizing Him as the only reality!

Once again, this is why A Course in Miracles says, “Be vigilant only for God and His Kingdom.”

Humor is Necessary

 I'm usually pretty easily amused, but sometimes I can be easily annoyed too. LOL ~ Mike Lemieux

Excerpt from Cindy Lora-Renard's The Business of Forgiveness:
It's important to maintain a sense of humor, which is a quality of an enlightened being. We can take ourselves so seriously and forget to laugh. The process of undoing the ego so that we can experience the attainment of true peace can be intense, because it asks us to question every value we hold. It's not easy letting go of self-concepts that we think are very important and real. This is precisely why humor is necessary.   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Death is Insane and not Real

 God did not create so it is an illusion. God created only happiness. ~ Mike Lemieux

Excerpt from Cindy Lora Renard's The Business of Forgiveness:
According to A Course in Miracles, death is a thought in the mind, and has nothing to do with the body. If there is no world, as the Course says, there can be no body that is doing anything. It is the mind that believes in such things.

The ego itself originated from the insane illusion that death was accomplished in our attacking God so that we could be a separate, individual self, apart from God, which makes us "special." This ego idea is a murderous thought, and symbolizes the death of God, and is also the ultimate suicide attempt - the death of our true Self as Christ. The projection of this insane belief had to follow as a result of guilt, and that is why the world and how we sometimes attempt to destroy our bodies within this world, is also insane and unreal.   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo
