This podcast is concerned with the Spiritual text, A Course In Miracles. We delve deeply into the metaphysics of A Course In Miracles, but our primary emphasis is always on masterclassing our forgiveness process.

"Try to reach down into your mind to a place of real safety. ²You will recognize that you have reached it if you feel a sense of deep peace, however briefly. ³Let go all the trivial things that churn and bubble on the surface of your mind, and reach down and below them to the Kingdom of Heaven. ⁴There is a place in you where there is perfect peace. ⁵There is a place in you where nothing is impossible. ⁶There is a place in you where the strength of God abides."

"This is the shift that true perception brings: What was projected out is seen within, and there forgiveness lets it disappear. ²For there the altar to the Son is set, and there his Father is remembered. ³Here are all illusions brought to truth and laid upon the altar. ⁴What is seen outside must lie beyond forgiveness, for it seems to be forever sinful. ⁵Where is hope while sin is seen as outside? ⁶What remedy can guilt expect? ⁷But seen within your mind, guilt and forgiveness for an instant lie together, side by side, upon one altar. ⁸There at last are sickness and its single remedy joined in one healing brightness. ⁹God has come to claim His Own. ¹⁰Forgiveness is complete."

"The search for truth is but the honest searching out of everything that interferes with truth. ²Truth is. ³It can neither be lost nor sought nor found. ⁴It is there, wherever you are, being within you. ⁵Yet it can be recognized or unrecognized, real or false to you. ⁶If you hide it, it becomes unreal to you because you hid it and surrounded it with fear. ⁷Under each cornerstone of fear on which you have erected your insane system of belief, the truth lies hidden. ⁸Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding truth in fear, you see no reason to believe that the more you look at fear the less you see it, and the clearer what it conceals becomes.

"It is this that makes the holy instant so easy and so natural. ²You make it difficult, because you insist there must be more that you need do. ³You find it difficult to accept the idea that you need give so little, to receive so much. ⁴And it is very hard for you to realize it is not personally insulting that your contribution and the Holy Spirit’s are so extremely disproportionate. ⁵You are still convinced that your understanding is a powerful contribution to the truth, and makes it what it is. ⁶Yet we have emphasized that you need understand nothing. ⁷Salvation is easy just _because_ it asks nothing you cannot give right now."

"Remember that the Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. ²The ego always speaks first. ³It is capricious and does not mean its maker well. ⁴It believes, and correctly, that its maker may withdraw his support from it at any moment. ⁵If it meant you well it would be glad, as the Holy Spirit will be glad when He has brought you home and you no longer need His guidance. ⁶The ego does not regard itself as part of you. ⁷Herein lies its primary error, the foundation of its whole thought system."

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. ²It is not necessary to seek for what is true, but it _is_ necessary to seek for what is false. ³Every illusion is one of fear, whatever form it takes. ⁴And the attempt to escape from one illusion into another must fail. ⁵If you seek love outside yourself you can be certain that you perceive hatred within, and are afraid of it. ⁶Yet peace will never come from the illusion of love, but only from its reality."

(1) The outlook starts with this:²Today I will make no decisions by myself.³This means that you are choosing not to be the judge of what to do. ⁴But it must also mean you will not judge the situations where you will be called upon to make response. ⁵For if you judge them, you have set the rules for how you should react to them. ⁶And then another answer cannot but produce confusion and uncertainty and fear.3. This is your major problem now. ²You still make up your mind, and _then_ decide to ask what you should do. ³And what you hear may not resolve the problem as you saw it first. ⁴This leads to fear, because it contradicts what you perceive and so you feel attacked. ⁵And therefore angry. ⁶There are rules by which this will not happen. ⁷But it does occur at first, while you are learning how to hear.

2. "Never approach the holy instant after you have tried to remove all fear and hatred from your mind. ²That is _its_ function. ³Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit’s help. ⁴That is _His_ function. ⁵Your part is only to offer Him a little willingness to let Him remove all fear and hatred, and to be forgiven."

It is impossible to accept the holy instant without reservation unless, just for an instant, you are willing to see no past or future. ²You cannot prepare for it without placing it in the future. ³Release is given you the instant you desire it. ⁴Many have spent a lifetime in preparation, and have indeed achieved their instants of success. ⁵This course does not attempt to teach more than they learned in time, but it does aim at saving time. ⁶You may be attempting to follow a very long road to the goal you have accepted. ⁷It is extremely difficult to reach Atonement by fighting against sin. ⁸Enormous effort is expended in the attempt to make holy what is hated and despised. ⁹Nor is a lifetime of contemplation and long periods of meditation aimed at detachment from the body necessary. ¹⁰All such attempts will ultimately succeed because of their purpose. ¹¹Yet the means are tedious and very time consuming, for all of them look to the future for release from a state of present unworthiness and inadequacy.5. Your way will be different, not in purpose but in means. ²A holy relationship is a means of saving time. ³One instant spent together with your brother restores the universe to both of you. ⁴You _are_ prepared. ⁵Now you need but to remember you need do nothing. ⁶It would be far more profitable now merely to concentrate on this than to consider what you should do. ⁷When peace comes at last to those who wrestle with temptation and fight against the giving in to sin; when the light comes at last into the mind given to contemplation; or when the goal is finally achieved by anyone, it always comes with just one happy realization; “I need do nothing.”6. Here is the ultimate release which everyone will one day find in his own way, at his own time. ²You do not need this time. ³Time has been saved for you because you and your brother are together. ⁴This is the special means this course is using to save you time. ⁵You are not making use of the course if you insist on using means which have served others well, neglecting what was made for _you._ ⁶Save time for me by only this one preparation, and practice doing nothing else. ⁷“I need do nothing” is a statement of allegiance, a truly undivided loyalty. ⁸Believe it for just one instant, and you will accomplish more than is given to a century of contemplation, or of struggle against temptation.7. To do anything involves the body. ²And if you recognize you need do nothing, you have withdrawn the body’s value from your mind. ³Here is the quick and open door through which you slip past centuries of effort, and escape from time. ⁴This is the way in which sin loses all attraction _right now._ ⁵For here is time denied, and past and future gone. ⁶Who needs do nothing has no need for time. ⁷To do nothing is to rest, and make a place within you where the activity of the body ceases to demand attention. ⁸Into this place the Holy Spirit comes, and there abides. ⁹He will remain when you forget, and the body’s activities return to occupy your conscious mind.

"A miracle is a correction. ²It does not create, nor really change at all. ³It merely looks on devastation, and reminds the mind that what it sees is false. ⁴It undoes error, but does not attempt to go beyond perception, nor exceed the function of forgiveness. ⁵Thus it stays within time’s limits. ⁶Yet it paves the way for the return of timelessness and love’s awakening, for fear must slip away under the gentle remedy it brings.2. A miracle contains the gift of grace, for it is given and received as one. ²And thus it illustrates the law of truth the world does not obey, because it fails entirely to understand its ways. ³A miracle inverts...."

"Simply do this: Be still, and lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what God is; all concepts you have learned about the world; all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or false, or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy, and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. Hold onto nothing. Do not bring with you one thought the past has taught, nor one belief you ever learned before from anything.
