A New Way to See

Synopsis for What Is the Body?

I imagine that I have made a body to keep love out and make myself separate from other parts of Love. I regard myself as the body for how else could I be certain I remain within the body keeping love outside?

The decay and death of the body I think is double safety, for what else would prove that God’s eternal Son can be destroyed?

The body is a dream, made to be fearful it serves the purpose given it. But I can change the purpose that the body will obey by changing what I think it is for.

The body becomes (or is) the means by which God’s Son returns to sanity. The goal of Heaven (Oneness) has been exchanged for the pursuit of hell (separation). Extending my hand to my brother to help him walk along the road with me, now the body is holy, now it serves to heal the mind that it was made to kill.

I will identify with what I think will make me safe. Being a dream the body is not here. My safety lies in truth, not in lies. Love is my safety. Fear does not exist. Identify with Love and I am safe. Identify with Love and I am home. Identify with Love and I find my Self.

Morning Thoughts

Spirit:
You are learning that what you thought might be interesting is only a nightmare. You are learning that it is not what you really want. In your choice to forget, you became lost. The power (strength) of your belief is what makes it appear as real.

Love dispels or displaces fear. Until you heard the ego voice you knew nothing of fear. Choose then to hear only the loving and lovable. Hear the love or the call for Love, for those are the only alternatives your really have. Every fear appears as a call for Love, to be healed and whole; to remember the truth in every passing image or thought.

You waver back and forth, still hoping to grasp some favor or value from this world. It will never be home or salvation for you. Choose to see love and that is all you will receive. Choose anything else and you wish to remain asleep, victim to what is “done” to you.

WB Lesson 263 Thoughts

Jesus tells me I made the body, to hide from God. It is simply another image I have made to make separation appear real. It is another toy in the game of sin and still I can change the purpose I have given to it.

When I use the body under the direction of my holy Self, then it is a tool for healing the mind that thinks it is doomed by corruption. The body can become a device for communication from Love to love, to lead the mind out of madness to return to sanity.

~~Sickness attempts to make the innocent (Son of God) guilty. It would make my brother guilty of my attack.  Yet all attack is self attack. I attack my body to make my brother “wrong” and worthy of guilt (punishment), such it the logic of the egoic mind. It thinks it can condemn another and escape condemnation itself. This is delusion. The symptoms of this body show me where there is still a need to heal my thoughts.

WB Lesson 262 Thoughts

Whenever I am perceiving differences, I am image making. I am mistaken in thinking those images are real. I think I am afraid of the images I “see” but I am only afraid of what I believe I have done.

Love is not divisible and I could never take away from or harm Love. I need only allow Love into my dream of fear. Love will gently sweep away the wisps of images that keep me from my truth.

WB Lesson 258 Thoughts

WB lesson 258:  Let me remember that my goal is God.

(In first person)
“All that I need do is train my mind to overlook all little senseless aims and to remember my goal is God. His memory is hidden in my mind, obscured only by my pointless little goals which offer nothing and do not exist. .... God is my only goal, my only Love. I have no aim but to remember Him.”

My only goal is to “walk” to God. God is everything I want, everything I seek is only God. God is but Love, therefore so am I. When I find the memory of God in my mind, All is revealed to me, the madness is undone. WB lesson 67.3,2-3. “If Love created you like Itself, this Self must be in you. And somewhere in your mind It is there for you to find.” [italics mine]

In giving up the meaningless goals of specialness, the meaningless pursuits of the separated mind, I remember the only truth there is: I remain as Love created me. I am at Home, forever one within the Mind of Love.

By laying down the meaningless goals, I find my mind open to my holy Self. My will is the same as God’s, to remember Him and know our Wholeness. Giving up the meaningless search in the world outside the body, I give my mind the rest and the quiet, in which healing arrives.

Listening

These are some thoughts that have come to mind recently.

WB Lesson 250:  Let me not see myself as limited. 

Holy Spirit, I’m listening.
Let me not cherish my illusions; the images I have made do not give happiness. I choose to let them go. I empty my mind of all I thought I was; I choose peace and joy instead of fear and pain. My mind is part of God’s, I am very holy.

WB Lesson 251:  I am in need of nothing but the truth.

All that I sought before was to support a foolish dream. It is a dream I want no more. I give my mind to God today. I want the simple truth, not the lies I made to deceive myself.

The unreal has never happened. I remain as Love created me. I am not a body. I am free. I am still as Love created me. Only truth is true. Only Love is real. There is nothing outside of Love.
Love is All that Is.

  WB Lesson 254:  Let every voice but God’s be still in me.

If I want the truth then I cannot listen to the other voices in my mind. I really want to hear only God’s Voice. In all the raucous noise of the dream world, I can still hear God’s Voice. If I want to be happy this is the one Voice I will give value to, only It is certain.  (WB Lesson 106—Let me be still and listen to the truth.)
I will my mind be still and listen to the truth. “And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and tells us of our will, as we have chosen to remember Him.” WB Lesson 254.

Complicated Game

I had a dream recently that appeared to highlight all the egoic operating methods.

I was taken into an organization (tightly maintained) not wholly willing. But thought if I did not “play along” I would be eliminated (as they did not want their ulterior motive to be revealed). As a “newbie” you had to progress through the “levels” by completing various tasks. It was a complicated game, each level with more challenges or difficulty. If you needed help, you were allowed to seek help, but you had to ask the “correct” person, not someone too high up. Also the rules changed as you progressed, without advance notice.

To me, this symbolizes the ego system. It uses “tricks” to keep you submissive and to keep you occupied with meaningless pursuits.

Spirit: Dear one, you indeed made up the game. But it is not necessary that you continue playing it. It is not a failure if you cease playing—for it has no true meaning or value. If you give the playing/motivation to H.S., then it may be used for waking and not for denial.

Giving the game to Spirit will direct you away from confusion, contrary thoughts and empty pursuits. For there is nothing in the game or at its end that is worthy as a gift to God’s Son. You are beginning to accept that you do not want anything the game offers you.

Your simple, uncomplicated purpose is to let go of the false, which enables you to remember what and who you are in truth. You always have Help to do his, never think you could be alone.
I am here, with you always.
