Welcoming the Holy Spirit’s True Perception

All healing is release from the past. That is why the Holy Spirit is the only Healer. He teaches that the past does not exist, a fact which belongs to the sphere of knowledge, and which therefore no one in the world can know. It would indeed be impossible to be in the world with this knowledge [that the past does not exist]. For the mind that knows this unequivocally knows also it dwells in eternity, and utilizes no perception at all. It therefore does not consider where it is, because the concept “where” does not mean anything to it. It knows that it is everywhere, just as it has everything, and forever.

This is the miracle of creation; that it is one forever. Every miracle you offer to the Son of God is but the true perception of one aspect of the whole. Though every aspect is the whole, you cannot know this until you see that every aspect is the same, perceived in the same light and therefore one. Everyone seen without the past thus brings you nearer to the end of time by bringing healed and healing sight into the darkness, and enabling the world to see. For light must come into the darkened world to make Christ’s vision possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all who think they wander in the darkness, and let Him gather them into His quiet sight that makes them one. (A Course in Miracles,T-13.VIII.1;5. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

Our belief in time makes knowledge of our unity in God’s Love impossible. Time is an attempt to introduce separation into eternity. In the world we bring our past experience into everything we perceive. No form in the world would have meaning to us without past experience.

From infancy we learn to interpret what forms mean. The process of giving meaning to form continues with our formal education and beyond through our day-to-day experiences. Yet all this learning simply reinforces the seeming reality of our perceptions, which are built upon the past.

The Holy Spirit teaches a different lesson. By teaching us to see the Light of Love everywhere, to see with Christ’s vision, we learn to see the oneness of Love. The perception of differences based on the past fades. More and more we see the sameness of Love’s oneness in all things, everywhere. The past loses its importance in our perception. Without the past our perception is healed and our mind becomes unified in the Love of God.

Today we practice accepting the Holy Spirit’s Light to bring clarity to our perceptions that we may have true perception.
