Recognizing the Unreality of Our Dreams

The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness.

²My forgiveness is the means by which the light of the world finds expression through me. ³My forgiveness is the means by which I become aware of the light of the world in me. ⁴My forgiveness is the means by which the world is healed, together with myself. ⁵Let me, then, forgive the world, that it may be healed along with me.

Suggestions for specific forms for applying this idea are:

²Let peace extend from my mind to yours, [name].
³I share the light of the world with you, [name].
⁴Through my forgiveness I can see this as it is. (A Course in Miracles, W-82.1–2. See also ACIM Lesson 82 Insights.)

When we dream, the situation and figures in the dream seem very real. When we wake up, we realize it was just a dream. We dismiss the experience, knowing nothing in the dream really happened.

The world we experience as a body is a dream made by the ego. We forgive the dream as we realize that nothing that appears to happen actually occurs. We freely dismiss the experience as we awaken to the fact that the dream had no effect on our reality. Forgiveness is a powerful tool that frees us from our dreams of limitation, littleness, and vulnerability.

The Holy Spirit is in our mind with the sole purpose helping us recognize that our dreams are not real. While we believe we are in the dream, it does seem real. We need His help from beyond the dream to overlook its seeming effects and awaken to the fact that we are united with our Creator in the oneness of His Love.
