See Past Form to the Love

The body’s eyes see only form. They cannot see beyond what they were made to see. And they were made to look on error and not see past it.…

Let your awareness of your brother not be blocked by your perception of his sins and of his body.… Beyond his errors is his holiness and your salvation.…

A holy relationship, however newly born, must value holiness above all else. (A Course in Miracles T-22.III.5:3-5;8:3,5;9:1)

It is helpful for us to be reminded frequently that everything the body’s eyes see is illusion. Seeing separate bodies is the opposite of seeing with the vision of Christ, Who sees only Love’s oneness. Seeing through the ego’s thought system of separation only brings pain and suffering.

Through forgiveness we learn to see past bodies and what bodies seem to do and say. The Course’s mind training program in the Workbook begins with helping us recognize that nothing we see means anything and we don’t of ourselves know what anything means. This is an essential step to help us open our minds to the forgiveness that comes when we accept Christ’s vision in place of what the body sees. With Christ’s vision, we see only Love in our brother and learn that we are only Love. This practice is the path to freedom.
