…to teach is to learn, so that teacher and learner are the same. [The Course] also emphasizes that teaching is a constant process; it goes on every moment of the day, and continues into sleeping thoughts as well.
To teach is to demonstrate. There are only two thought systems, and you demonstrate that you believe one or the other is true all the time. From your demonstration others learn, and so do you.
Teaching but reinforces what you believe about yourself. Its fundamental purpose is to diminish self-doubt. This does not mean that the self you are trying to protect is real. But it does mean that the self you think is real is what you teach. (A Course in Miracles, M-in.1:5-2:3;3:7-9)
When we react to a brother as though he is a body, we teach and learn that bodies and separation are real. This keeps us bound to the guilt and fear of the ego’s world of separation.
If we want to experience the Love, peace and happiness God has already given us, we need to change what we teach and learn. To do this we need to diligently and consistently choose the Holy Spirit as our Guide in all that we think and do. He will always guide us to act and think with Love. His vision shows us the loving Self that perception of the body hides. His Thoughts always reflect God’s Thought of Love.
The Holy Spirit recognizes our thoughts of defense and attack as calls for Love and answers these calls with forgiveness and Love. True forgiveness welcomes the vision of the Love we are. As we let the Holy Spirit be our Guide, we teach Love and learn that we are Love and nothing else.
