Fearing God

God did not send the Holy Spirit to rescue you. The Holy Spirit could be said to be your memory of your true home with God, which is the right part of your mind. The ego is the wrong part of your mind. At first people think that the Course its talking to them as a person, because that's what they think they are. But the "you" that the Course is addressing is actually your seemingly separated mind that needs to choose to listen to the right teacher instead of the wrong one.

That's not easy, because you feel terrible, and the ego is going to play on your fears In the experience of consciousness, you think you've lost everything, and the ego is more than happy to make you think you've done something wrong. "You're in for it, man. God's very angry at what you've done." Now, if you've done something wrong, what's that but the idea of sin? And if you've sinned, then that means you're guilty . And if you're guilty, that means that you're gong to be punished. But on this level, you think you're gong to punished by God Himself! That results in the fear of God, which you still have, even though it's unconscious to you. The terrible guilt in your mind over this is still buried there, But with the mind being holographic, the experience of the truth is still buried there as well. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Denying What Isn't True

As a response to the false condition of separation, real forgiveness denies what isn't true and accepts what's true. As J puts it in the Course, "It denies the ability of anything not of God to affect you." ~ Your Immortal Reality  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Something's Missing Alright

We're not saying the world isn't good sometimes. But even then, without wholeness, it feels like there's something missing. What's missing is your perfect oneness with God. The universe of time and space is meant to cover over the one and only problem, which is the seeming separation from God, and especially the one and only solution, which is to go home through forgiveness As the Course says, and this is very important, "A sense of separation from God is the only lack you really need correct." If that 's the only lack, then all the others are simply symbolic of the first and only lack. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

All Bodies are not Real

The purpose here is not to dwell on bodies. What we do is use bodies to teach you of the unreality of ALL bodies, and to stress that ultimately no body is more important or more real than any other body. That's what the Holy Spirit does. He uses the illusion to lead you out of the illusion. True forgiveness is an illusion, too, but it gets you home. Without it, you'd be stuck here in unhappy dreamland forever. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Use it to Get You Home

Sometimes an incarnation doesn't take place as a human being ,even though those who are human spend most, but not all, of their lifetimes as humans. It has to do with the way the universe is set up. What's important is that you realize what your lifetime is for, which is to use it to get home. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo    Facebook.com/photo

An Inspired Idea

Remember that the teachings of the Course are always applied at the level of the mind, and never at the level of form or the physical. That's why it's a course in cause and not effect. In your mind, you use right-minded ideas. Then sometimes after you forgive, you may feel you are being guided in some way by the Holy Spirit as to what you should do or not do. It doesn't have to happen that often. You don't have to be bombarded with inspired ideas. Just one inspired idea can make a huge difference in your life. That's inspiration, which comes as an aftereffect of forgiveness in much the same way as it comes as an aftereffect of true prayer. ~ Your Immortal Reality   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/photo   Facebook.com/photo

Only God Exists

The bodies you occupy in your various dream incarnations are symbols of duality. Thus, you have just as many lifetimes where you are rich as you are poor, good as you are evil, good-looking as you are unattractive to the eye, famous as you are obscure, healthy as you are sick; and every polarity, duality, and opposite you could possibly think of. None of them are true. It's all a trick. You are your own counterpart. Ultimately, the bodies that are not your own incarnations are also you. Like your own bodies, they reflect the opposite of duality because they symbolize the condition of separation from God. Yet there can be no separation from God. Only God exists, and all else is false. The Course is completely uncompromising on that, for those who care to see it. ~ Your Immortal Reality

A Nightmare State of Illusion

As far as the idea of separation of God is concerned, because your idea is not of God, He does not respond to it. To respond to it would be to give it reality. If God Himself were to acknowledge anything except the idea of perfect oneness, then there would no longer be perfect oneness. There would no longer be a perfect state of Heaven for you to return to. You never really left anyway. You're still there, but you have entered into a nightmare state of illusion. ~ Your Immortal Reality

Time is Holographic

Time is holographic: past, present, and future all occur simultaneously, and, according to the Course, it's really already over. But you have to complete your lessons to make that real in your experience. ~ Your Immortal Reality  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo   Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo

Occupying Bodies

Part of what makes the unreal seem possible is that you make some bodies more special than others, and it's a trick so you'll find some of those bodies guilty in your mind and project your own unconscious guilt onto them, which is the reason you made them up in the first place. But what if you really understood that those bodies aren't so special, if anything, just by the sheer number of them that you and those close to you have occupied? ~ Your Immortal Reality  Facebook.com/DWMJF/photo
