As Christ, you have AUTHORITY over illusions. Authority over the ego. Authority over death.
This authority doesn't mean you are equal with illusions or equal in power with the ego. The ego has NO power. Your Authority reveals that you HAVE...
Those course students who believe they are only supposed to correct their own perceptions - perceptions of the physical world, as though the physical world is reality and you simply need to see it without judgement in order to keep...
If you know what the secret to the magic trick is, you know that there is not really any magic happening. But if something is hidden, if there is information missing, it becomes possible to enter into an alternative state...
Holy Spirit's suggestion to take the next step in a healing, was to "cancel".
This means that you cancel, as in undo, your belief that an illusion is a reality. Whatever has been asserted by the ego as true or real,...
I'm having a really hard time trying to put a simple truth into words. So... for now, an analogy...
If it's dark and there seems to be a scary shape behind the door, you might think there is a monster lurking.

Sometimes I find it difficult to relate when people suggest that you "just" do this or that, in order to be awakened or spiritual.

"Sickness is a defense against the truth." - ACIM
Truth is divine perfect health. Truth is love. Truth is God.

Sickness isn't a "thing". It doesn't have...

We think that there are causes out there which have effects on other things.
We think that the world is able...
Honesty is the basic machinery of awakening. It means you have a willingness to accept what is true regardless of whether it suits your ego or makes you look good. It means putting the truth before your own personal position,...
You hear often that 'the world' as a term becomes substituted with terms like "its a dream", "its an illusion", "its not real", "we made it up", "its a projection" etc.
But, this doesn't really grasp what an illusion is. It's...
What we do in secret, and separately from God, and thinking that it is not something God is aware of, and which we hope other people do not know about, and how we suffer in silence, and feel things that...
I choose to be afraid.
