Today’s idea is merely another way of saying “Let me not wander into temptation.” The purpose of the world you see is to obscure your function of forgiveness, and provide you with a justification for forgetting it. [The world] is the temptation to abandon God and His Son by taking on a physical appearance. It is this the body’s eyes look upon. Nothing the body’s eyes seem to see can be anything but a form of temptation, since this was the purpose of the body itself. Yet we have learned that the Holy Spirit has another use for all the illusions you have made, and therefore He sees another purpose in them. To the Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself what you think of as your sins. In this perception, the physical appearance of temptation becomes the spiritual recognition of salvation.” …every time you choose whether or not to fulfill your function, you are really choosing whether or not to be happy. Let me not forget my function. Let me not try to substitute mine for God’s. Let me forgive and be happy. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 64, W-pI.64.1-2;4:4;6:2-4. See also
