Together, We Light the Way

Nothing Is Outside Us

C-4.6. This is the shift that true perception brings: What was projected out is seen within, and there forgiveness lets it disappear.

Nothing is so miraculous in its effects as being aware that the world is actually only in the mind. There is nothing outside us because we are in God and there is nothing but God. So where could the world be except within us, within our mind. This is helpful in awakening and it is also helpful on the level of the illusion. How is it that we can honestly say I forgive if we believe the illusions are real and really happening? How could we honestly love if we are really separate?

Someone I know has a real problem with Trump. She has a hard time seeing him in any way other than his ego personification, one she doesn’t like. As long as she sees only the separated self in him, she will think he is the enemy. If he gets his way, she cannot have what she wants and so she hates him for what he seems to be taking from her. Thinking of him robs her of peace and blocks her awareness of Love’s presence. It also reinforces her belief in guilt.

How does this get resolved? Even when he is no longer president, the problem persists because it is in her mind. All relationships must be healed. Here is the solution that I discovered. I see myself as outside this body watching everything it does, watching as if I were in it, seeing through its eyes, but knowing that I am not that. I look over at Trump or whoever is the current ‘enemy’ and I see his soul hovering over the body known as Trump watching the show along with me. We smile at each other, sharing the lucid moment, loving each other, maybe laughing at the absurdity, reveling in our oneness.

C-5.2. 4 Yet who can save unless he sees illusions and then identifies them as what they are? 5 Jesus remains a Savior because he saw the false without accepting it as true. 6 And Christ needed his form that He might appear to men and save them from their own illusions.
