You are the means for God; not separate, nor with a life apart from His. His Life is manifest in you who are His Son. Each aspect of Himself is framed in holiness and perfect purity, in love celestial and so complete it wishes only that it may release all that it looks upon unto itself. Its radiance shines through each body that it looks upon, and brushes all its darkness into light merely by looking past it to the light. The veil is lifted through its gentleness, and nothing hides the face of Christ from its beholders. And both of you stand there, before Him now, to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to keep you separate and apart. (A Course in Miracles, T-25.I.4. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
The body’s eyes cannot see holiness because they were made to show only separation. Thus the images the body’s eyes show us are a veil that hides the Love that is the truth in everyone from our awareness.
Yet there is the means for true vision in our minds with which we can see past form to the limitless Love that is everywhere. It is this vision that we must give top priority in order for us to see the truth in our brother and ourselves. This vision’s only purpose is to see the unity we share with God and every brother. This is our true Will.
As we give our true Will our top priority, the images the body presents become insignificant, for the magnificence of the Light we see beyond the images captures our full attention. By the grace of God, the Holy Spirit was given us to teach us our true purpose and to learn to use the means of seeing with the purpose of joining in Love. With this practice we lift the veil to see the Love that is everywhere.
