How to Learn Everything

Those who remember always that they know nothing, and who have become willing to learn everything, will learn it. But whenever they trust themselves, they will not learn. They have destroyed their motivation for learning by thinking they already know. Think not you understand anything until you pass the test of perfect peace, for peace and understanding go together and never can be found alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is the law of God they be not separate. They are cause and effect, each to the other, so where one is absent the other cannot be.

Whenever you think you know, peace will depart from you, because you have abandoned the Teacher of peace. Whenever you fully realize that you know not, peace will return, for you will have invited Him to do so by abandoning the ego on behalf of Him. Call not upon the ego for anything; it is only this that you need do. The Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for Him. (A Course in Miracles, T-14.XI.12,13:3-6. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)

When we choose to believe that we are a separate identity, our awareness of our connection with our Creator is blocked. God’s Love and peace are unknown to us, though they are ever present. To know God’s peace, we must let go of the denial of our oneness with God.

The ego cannot teach us about oneness, being the denial of unity. But we have been given another Teacher, Who is not deceived by the false beliefs of the ego. This Teacher is always with us and we remember His presence by accepting peace. We open to this peace by letting go of thinking we know what anything means.

The practice of turning to the Holy Spirit as our Guide in all things will lead us Home to the full recognition of our innate peace. We will remember that we are Love, along with all our brothers. There is no distance between us. We are one and the flow of Love joins us together eternally.
