Undoing Our Choice for Fear and Guilt

Since you believe that you are separate, Heaven presents itself to you as separate, too. Not that it is in truth, but that the link that has been given you to join the truth may reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth. Christ and His Father never have been separate, and Christ abides within your understanding, in the part of you that shares His Father’s Will. The Holy Spirit links the other part–the tiny, mad desire to be separate, different and special–to the Christ, to make the oneness clear to what is really one. In this world this is not understood, but can be taught.

The Holy Spirit serves Christ’s purpose in your mind, so that the aim of specialness can be corrected [in your mind] where the error lies. Because His purpose still is one with both the Father and the Son, He knows the Will of God and what you really will. But this is understood by mind perceived as one, aware that it is one, and so experienced. It is the Holy Spirit’s function to teach you how this oneness is experienced, what you must do that it can be experienced, and where you should go to do it. (A Course in Miracles, T-25.I.5-6. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

The part of our mind that dreams of separation, individuality, fear and guilt needs to be taught that the dream is not true. In the dream it is impossible to experience the oneness of God’s Love. When we chose to dream of separation, God gave us the Holy Spirit to help us undo this mistaken choice.

The Holy Spirit uses the images in our dream to teach us how to recognize what is true and what is false. He teaches us true perception which overlooks the images of the dream to the Love that is hidden behind them. Each time we accept His correction, our attachment to the dream softens. We are not so insistent that our perceptions must be true. We become progressively more willing to accept the true perception that forgiveness welcomes.

When forgiveness is complete, when true perception has replaced the ego’s false perceptions, we see a forgiven world. We have opened our heart and mind to accept God’s changeless, eternal Love. We awaken from the dream.
