VIII. The Problem and the Answer
1 This is a very simple course. Perhaps you do not feel you need a course which, in the end, teaches that only reality is true. But do you believe it? When you perceive the real world, you will recognize that you did not believe it. Yet the swiftness with which your new and only real perception will be translated into knowledge will leave you but an instant to realize that this alone is true. And then everything you made will be forgotten; the good and the bad, the false and the true. For as Heaven and earth become one, even the real world will vanish from your sight. The end of the world is not its destruction, but its translation into Heaven. The reinterpretation of the world is the transfer of all perception to knowledge.

This reinterpretation of the world, the transfer of all perception to knowledge, is our goal. It is our ultimate goal, but not my immediate goal, I think. When this goal is complete the world we know will be forgotten. Everything we made will vanish, the good and bad, the false and the true, as Heaven and earth become one. Even the real world will vanish. That seems far from anything that I can imagine or have any part in accomplishing.

I look toward allowing all untrue thoughts in my mind to be healed, at least all that I am able to do toward this goal. I look toward awakening within this world, knowing that what I believe is not true and experiencing the real world. This I can anticipate because I can understand it even if I have not yet fully accomplished it. I think that is not phrased exactly right. I have not fully accomplished my part in it would be more accurate.

I know people who have done so, and I see what it must be like to live a more honest and therefore more beautiful, happier and peaceful life. My life has become more so even now, though not truly the happy dream or real world. But that it is closer makes it seem possible and even probable of accomplishment. But to think of the ultimate goal of the illusion disappearing completely and being only one with God, that is something outside my imagination. I understand the concept but have no experience of it in my recovered memory. One day, though.

In the meantime, I will continue the practices and I will continue to be open and available to guidance and instruction and even revelation. I know these things work and have brought me to this much happier state of mind and to the clarity that I have at this time, so I will stay on this path unless guided elsewhere. I know the end is certain and as Jesus tells us it will be, just as I know that tonight the sun will set and tomorrow the sun will rise. I know it even though it has not yet occurred.
