The Bridge That Brings Us Healing

The way to recognize your brother is by recognizing the Holy Spirit in him.

The Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. ²Being thought, the idea gains as it is shared. ³Being the Call for God, it is also the idea of God. ⁴Since you are part of God it is also the idea of yourself, as well as of all His creations. ⁵The idea of the Holy Spirit… is strengthened by being given away. ⁷It increases in you as you give it to your brother. ⁸Your brother does not have to be aware of the Holy Spirit in himself or in you for this miracle to occur. ⁹He may have dissociated the Call for God, just as you have. ¹⁰This dissociation is healed in both of you as you become aware of the Call for God in him, and thus acknowledge Its being.

⁴See him through the Holy Spirit in his mind, and you will recognize Him in yours. ⁵What you acknowledge in your brother you are acknowledging in yourself, and what you share you strengthen.

The Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the ego has made. ⁶He undoes it at the same level on which the ego operates, or the mind would be unable to understand the change. (A Course in Miracles, T-5.III.1:1;2:1-10;3:4-5;5:5-6. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

To heal is to make whole. The Holy Spirit is idea of making whole what appears to be broken into pieces in the ego’s thought system. Thus He serves as a bridge between the oneness of our Identity in our Creator’s Love and our dream of individuality and specialness.

The Holy Spirit is the Truth in everyone. We need His help to learn to undo our ego-based perceptions so that we see the Holy Spirit in our brother, and recognize His presence in our own mind. This recognition heals our belief in differences to know our unity with the Love that we are with all our brothers.
