If you are blessed and do not know it, you need to learn it must be so. ²The knowledge is not taught, but its conditions must be acquired for it is they that have been thrown away. ³You can learn to bless, and cannot give what you have not. ⁴If, then, you offer blessing, it must have come first to yourself. ⁵And you must also have accepted it as yours, for how else could you give it away? ⁶That is why miracles offer you the testimony that you are blessed. ⁷If what you offer is complete forgiveness you must have let guilt go, accepting the Atonement for yourself and learning you are guiltless.
Indirect proof of truth is needed in a world made of denial and without direction. ²You will perceive the need for this if you realize that to deny is the decision not to know. ³The logic of the world must therefore lead to nothing, for its goal is nothing. ⁴If you decide to have and give and be nothing except a dream, you must direct your thoughts unto oblivion. ⁵And if you have and give and are everything [Love], and all this has been denied, your thought system is closed off and wholly separated from the truth. ⁶This is an insane world, and do not underestimate the extent of its insanity. ⁷There is no area of your perception that it has not touched, and your dream is sacred to you. ⁸That is why God placed the Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream.
⁶They [dreams] will not be taken from him. ⁷But they can be given up by_ him, for the Source of their undoing is in him. ⁸There is nothing in the world to teach him that the logic of the world is totally insane and leads to nothing. ⁹Yet in him who made this insane logic there is One [Holy Spirit] Who knows it leads to nothing, for He knows everything. (A Course in Miracles, T-14.I.1:1-7;2;3:6-9. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)
Perception can only occur when separation is accepted as true. The perceiver believes he is separate and different from what he perceives. Thus perception is central to maintaining the ego’s place in our mind.
True knowledge is an experience of oneness. It is full acceptance of unity with God’s Love. This knowing is beyond the realm of dreams. Yet in our mind the Holy Spirit provides a bridge to lead us out of our dreams of limitation and differences. He is our inner Teacher Whose function is to help us see past the dreams of conflicting perceptions to welcome the gift of God’s Love. As we accept His gift we bring Love’s blessing to the world. We become messengers of Love.
