Pain in the illusion (this world) can be all consuming. It can be gut wrenching, bringing-you-to-your-knees kind of suffering that seems to eclipse everything else. It feels as though your very being is under assault, and the world has become a relentless tormentor. However, we know any pain is qualifying as all pain is rooted in fear — the ego. We’ve all experienced it in different forms: the loss of a loved one, the betrayal of a trusted friend, the shattering of a cherished dream. For me, it was the agonizing separation from my children due to my own struggles with addiction. I remember vividly the despair that drove me to curl into a fetal position (ego’s desire to retreat into the illusion of safety and separation), as if trying to return to a place of safety and wholeness that felt impossibly distant. In those moments, the pain was so visceral, so absolute, that the idea of finding solace or meaning seemed like a cruel joke. Yet, it is precisely in these darkest of times that A Course in Miracles offers a path, a way to navigate through the seeming impossibility of unbearable pain and find our way back to the unshakable truth of Who we are. https://www.pathwaysoflight.org/index.php/Miracles_News/full_article/12596
