From Virtual to True Reality

You will believe that you are part of where you think you are. That is because you surround yourself with the environment you want. And you want it to protect the image of yourself that you have made. The image is part of this environment. What you see while you believe you are in it is seen through the eyes of the image. This is not vision. Images cannot see.

[‘My mind is part of God’s. I am very holy,’] presents a very different view of yourself. By establishing your Source it establishes your Identity, and it describes you as you must really be in truth. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 35, W-pI.35.1:1-2:2A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 35, )

What we see through the body’s eyes is a virtual reality. Virtual means that its an imitation, not the real thing. The body functions just like virtual reality goggles. With virtual reality goggles, it seems that we are in the scene. We can look in any direction and see different things, all from our own perspective.

The body does the same thing, but it cannot show us the Reality of oneness. It shows us only a false imitation of reality that masks the Truth. The body is incapable of showing us Truth, so we must have help from outside of the virtual reality story made up by the ego.

This Help is the Holy Spirit, Who brings us Christ’s vision in our mind which does not use the body’s eyes. Christ’s vision disregards form and sees only the oneness of Spirit. Spirit is united with God, sharing His Love and holiness.

To know our Self, we must undo the belief that we are a separate identity as a body. It is the Holy Spirit’s purpose to guide us in this process of undoing and remembering Who we really are.
