A New Way to See

Remember Your Innocence

In a calm place of mind, I asked Spirit to speak….

Dear one, you know well that you have the tools or means for your freedom from dreams and nightmares. Yet when you are afraid of waking, you do not use them. Remember this: no matter what you choose in your dream, you remain innocent, whole and pure. You cannot change what Love has created. Remember your innocence and do not invest in the story of guilt. The thought system that was adopted is not real nor has the tiniest resemblance to reality.

Just for today practice observing everything around you as a thought. All things you seem to see are only thoughts collected in the one mind.

me: Thank you very much. (WB Lesson 15: My thoughts are images I have made.)
Everything I see is an image I have made. I am willing to give every image (thought) to H.S. to use. amen.

In My Mind

My partner and I, have been sharing a meditation morning and night, from the Miracles Studies 904 “Putting God First” course. I am beginning to accept the gifts that this practice offers me.

As I listened to the words, I repeated the ideas in first person to myself silently. I melted into the peace.
There is only peace in this quiet place of choosing God. There is one Life and that I share with God.
I am filled with gratitude.

Raging Trip Dream

I have been asking Spirit to show me what I have been afraid to see (own). I think this dream represented all the rage that is buried in my mind.

Dream: Phil and I, Buster and Marge, were all going on a trip. At the beginning it was taking a train (scenic train through Canada). I had no need for the walker and was anticipating a good time. Then it changed to an ocean liner, very upper scale, and huge. I was at the concierge’s getting some cash. (Buster and I had inherited money from our mom).

The concierge had looked up our file, and made a debit from our account, taking out $2,500. I thought that was too much (and wondered what P. would say) and had her put $2000 in the safe, which she put into a canvas bank bag, with our number on it.
I then said I needed help in finding our room as I had not been to it. She gladly took me to the elevators, chatting to me. I was trying to keep track of what floor we were on, which elevator we were using. This was because the ship was humungous, with many banks of elevators, and some floors that rotated. The entrance to a gathering room (salon) could end up on the opposite side of the ship from where you had entered.

During this segment, I kept losing the various people that were leading me or escorting me. I grew more and more frustrated. I was tired, hungry, and just wanted to rest in privacy. It seemed that the different, highly advanced vending machines that were installed for the passengers convenience, had no clear (or none) instructions for use. At one point, a young man was showing me how to use a device to order food, which was confusing to me. Once he thought that I’d gotten the handle of how it worked, he left, and once more I felt stranded because I had no understanding of the machine. I got more frustrated and angry. I began leaving written messages every place on how dissatisfactory and crummy the ship and company were. It seemed to be the wipe-able pen that I had, and at a table, I had a white waxy marker. Some crew members had been sitting there, and moved away as they finished their break, with no concern about what I was doing, or why.

Basically it came down to: I couldn’t find my way and there were no instructions any where to guide (help) me. Any place I ended up at, I was alone and helpless.

It seems to me the frustration and anger I made, show me how I felt betrayed, in this instance by God. “Here I am, plunked into this impossible world with no instructions.” The message from this dream seems to be that this world IS impossible to understand. This world is the opposite in every way to God’s. The ego system wants me to believe that God made this world. For if I truly understood that I made this world, I would no longer tolerate the ego system and its meanings. And I could no longer be mad at God, for He did not create this meaningless world.

Thankfully, Holy Spirit would have me learn that there is nothing here to understand; that only by giving all thoughts to Him will I clear my mind of the meaningless images and ideas. He would have me learn that nothing here is real, for only Love is real and Love is All There Is. He teaches me that I can see differently, by joining Him and looking past the forms in this world.

Father, if I feel anger/rage at being “put” in this world, then I am attending the ego’s teaching. This is not your Will and therefore cannot be mine. Help me see beyond this false image. Father, You are the only Cause, and I would choose only You. I put no other gods/idols before You. Thank You Very Much.

Let Peace Fill You

I recently received these thoughts, and feel blessed by the One Mind we are.

Spirit: “Peace is your one goal. Open to peace. Imagine peace flowing over you like a waterfall of Light. Let it wash you. Let it enter and fill your mind. Allow yourself to receive the gift of peace. You are wholly worthy and deserving to have peace.

“Desire peace sincerely and it is yours. It has already been given to you, you need only to remove the blinders to its presence. One of the benefits of peace is a sense of certainty, of knowing that everything is all right without limit. Peace is your natural state, when you are not aware of peace you have chosen the wrong teacher. It is in your change of mind that peace is welcomed.

“Dear one, quiet your mind, move into stillness. Feel peace pour over you, and filling you. Though you dream otherwise, you are devoted to Love. In your dreaming it is helpful to return to the inner alter and place the thoughts and feelings there.

“In your example of the stay in the hospital, you chose to view everyone as there to help you. You chose not to view yourself as victim. Because everyone was there to be helpful, you felt safe, you felt H.S. was directing everyone. Every day use that example to view everyone as being helpful, as having your best interest in their minds. When you encounter fear in any form, remember it is only your own fear showing up to be healed. Any fear that you have made represents the belief in guilt which only comes from the thought of being separate from Love.”

“When you view everyone and everything as truly helpful this reflects your choice for Love.”

What You Think You Have

These thoughts were given to me from Spirit today.

“What you think you have and what you think you are, is nothing. What you don’t know you have and are, is Everything!

“Dear one, what you think you know is nothing because it is illusion. What you think you see, is only your wishes projected onto a screen in your mind. It is not solid at all, but you have deep belief in the images that you have made, so much that they seem to have weight, depth, growth and any other attribute associated with the physical world.

“The guilt that you have made from the belief that you attacked God, and now must fear Him, seems to be hidden by all the images on your screen. The guilt gets laid on the body, so “you” (ego) can show God how truly miserable you are by your pains and disability. If you continue to think that you are an ego/body then the outcome will not change; do you really want to continue with the role of victim?
If you will take every hinderance to Holy Spirit, the correction is certain. Be willing to recognize all the forms that guilt is disguised in, and give those forms, those thoughts to Holy Spirit. Do not fear that the truth will be worse than the guilt, that is only another ego ploy to keep you imprisoned.

“If you do not like the way that you feel (think) then be willing to accept that you have chosen wrongly. Then seek to choose again with the help of your Holy Self, for It will always choose for Love, never for fear. Practice in mindfulness of what and where your thoughts are. Give up your defense of a thought system that is wholly fallible, unforgiving, and unreal.

“Choose to see only the loving and the lovable, and you will find Love is all around you, and In you. For you are every loving thought, every communion with Love, and from Love Itself. Seek only the Kingdom and all else is given you. There is only Love.”

With the Eyes of Love

Recently Spirit gave this message to me:

You think you would be happy if you were able to use your legs as you did once before. Truly, this is not where happiness is. You think your time is wasted because you cannot accomplish household chores. You would like for your space to be neat and orderly. What about your mind, dear one? Would it not benefit you to bring order to your mind that is filled with conflict? Let me remind you that you cannot bring order alone; you need help in sorting out the worth from the useless. Do not feel “bad” about your failure to do this inner cleaning—- for any sense of guilt or shame is another ego ploy to keep you mired in illusion. You know that when you truly desire help, you have it. But your belief that you will not “like” the correct interpretation keeps you from asking for help.

Part of the mind tells you that you have made wrong choices. And that same part insists that you must sacrifice to make up for the wrong choice. Dear one, there is no sacrifice, there is no loss of any kind. You are still innocent, wholly pure, exactly as Love created you. This has never changed. Would you not want to give up the game of fear and accept your perfection?
When you choose to look with Love’s eyes, innocence and purity will be all that you see. When you look with the eyes of Love, you free your brother and yourself. With eyes of Love, you recognize there is no past; all hurts are undone; all pain is healed. With Love’s eyes you see only the truth and gently lay forgiveness on everything that appears in unhappy dreams. You forgive the insane thoughts that the false idea brought.

Accept this now. Your Inner Eyes are the eyes of Love. Your Inner knowing grows from Love. What you search for in your dream, lies in your Heart of hearts. It waits for your acceptance, to radiate out to the world and heal all thoughts of fear, of separation. That is your purpose here. See with the eyes of Love. Give yourself the time to turn within and to be showered in peace. Accept the gift of peace. As you allow your fear thoughts to be healed by Love, the inner change will be reflected outwards.

Dear one, you have denied the Love/Truth of what you are. Yet you can only deny what was once known. Therefore, the truth is still within you, the Love is What you are. Only the split mind fears that you will discover and accept this Love. When you find fear thoughts, remember that is not you
Be mindful of peace today—- where is your peace? It is now. You can let the past go, you can let the future be. Be present in the moment. Be here now.

Message From A Movie

This morning I found my mind had been all over the place. Last night we watched “Good Will Hunting,” I’d totally forgotten the scene near the end where Sean tells Will, “It’s not your fault.” He repeats it again and again until Will really accepts it.

It reminded me that it is not my fault—I am innocent—no matter what I am choosing. If I’m afraid of waking to the truth, I am not guilty for that choice, I am only mistaken. I have incarcerated myself in guilt and then mistakenly thought that there is no way out. Still, I am not alone and the gentle Voice asks me to “Choose again.” I am being asked to give up any thought that hurts me, or any belief in guilt. Guilt has no cause. I have mistaken guilt for the truth. I need only to take any thought of guilt or fear and lay it on the alter for Holy Spirit to translate.

Message from Holy Self: It’s not your fault. It was not your job to make your parents happy. It’s not your fault that they were unhappy. It’s not your fault about what your mother chose. It’s not your fault that your father chose the role of alcoholic. What they chose for themselves was never your fault. It was not your responsibility. It’s not your fault—- it’s not your fault.

When you see those ancient perceptions rise in your thoughts, remember that perceptions are wrong. They will always be wrong until you give them to the Spirit of Love for correction. He will always heal the perception for you, never leaving you. You will never fail if you take all your perceptions to Him Who knows the truth about you and for you. The strength of Love is in you and will correct every perception that was made in error. You are innocent, sinless, for your only Cause was Love Itself.

You are breaking the chain of deception and self hate. You are accepting the truth and the love. You have learned to listen to the Voice for Love in your mind. You have learned that there is indeed another way to view the world, and your mind.

If you find confrontation in your thoughts, you know that you can choose again. You can view the thoughts or beliefs of separation with the Spirit of Love, and let Love heal your mind. You are all right. You are safe. You are loved, You are innocent.
There is no “better than,” or “worse than.” Choose again—- is to choose for Love, to see beyond the images to the Love that is there, and everywhere.
