Holy Spirit Speaks Part 4 of 5
Remember this From My Universal Curriculum, Part 4

 

 

 

The Course or any other form of My Universal curriculum is not to be revered or made special. Most of the worlds wars today are rooted in the belief in separate religions. The escape from all concepts and beliefs is salvation. You don't have to seek for the light, because what is true is ever present. The aim is not to seek for what is true;the aim is to remove all blocks to loves awareness. In the end all belief is to be relinquished, because God is beyond belief. Many religions and spiritual leaders are stuck at this level of conceptual understanding (form), they do not see the superficiality of form, and A Course in Miracles is included in that,the worldly see the form as content within itself.   Pure content is abstraction and beyond all form. Remember this, "You are a perfect creation, and should experience awe only in the presence of the Creator of perfection."

 

The worldly fills its mind with superficial beliefs about God, Truth, and Spirit. All of this is superficial. The superficial cling, they are angry and violent when another doesn't accept its beliefs, they are jealous and envious when another seems to have something they want. They are furious if another doesn't accept their belief. All of this blocks Me from entering your mind and therefore denies true religion. The truly religious is beyond belief; they have seen the fallacy of words and concepts. Remember this, "I have made every effort to use words that are almost impossible to distort, but it is always possible to twist symbols around if you wish."

 

The worldly does not know how to love or know how to leave things be as they are. The worldly craves to be understood, to be loved and seen as special people. Remember this, "The body is the central figure in the dreaming of the world. There is no dream without it,nor does it exist without the dream in which it acts as if it were a person to be seen and be believed. It takes the central place in every dream, which tells the story of how it was made by other bodies, born into the world outside the body, lives a little while and dies, to be united in the dust with other bodies dying like itself. In the brief time allotted it to live, it seeks for other bodies as its friends and enemies. Its safety is its main concern. Its comfort is its guiding rule. It tries to look for pleasure, and avoid the things that would be hurtful. Above all, it tries to teach itself its pains and joys are different and can be told apart."

 

In the Holiness of the present moment no one is special, for your personal needs intrude on no one to make your brothers seem different. The belief that you are a person is the one fundamental problem you have. Remember this, "All mind is whole, and the belief that part of it is physical, or not mind, is a fragmented or sick interpretation. "

 

The worldly gives in order to receive, which is of the ego, not the Spirit. Giving and receiving are one, they are simultaneous and this truth stands outside of time, therefore true giving is receiving. Remember the miracle of my words, "No one can lose, and everyone must benefit. Each miracle is an example of what justice can accomplish when it is offered to everyone alike. It is received and given equally. It is awareness that giving and receiving are the same. Because it does not make the same unlike, it sees no differences where none exists. And thus it is the same for everyone, because it sees no differences in them. Its offering is universal, and it teaches but one message: What is God's belongs to everyone, and is his due."

 

You are forever seeking, either for recognition, security or something to believe in, a nation, an ideology, an interpretation, it doesn't matter; it is all insecure and misdirected loyalty. I have given you a picture but you are only seeing its frame. You do not know how to look. Look at the picture wholly. Do not let the frame (form of My Course) distract you.  Remember this, "You cannot have the frame without the picture. What you value is the frame, for there you see no conflict. Yet the frame is only the wrapping for the gift of conflict. The frame is not the gift. Be not deceived by the most superficial aspects of this thought system, for these aspects enclose the whole, complete in every aspect. Death lies in this glittering gift. Let not your gaze dwell on the hypnotic gleaming of the frame. Look at the picture, and realize that death is offered you."

 

It is easy to curse a government, a dictator, a murder; it is easy to curse another. But this very attitude of domination and control, this craving for power is in the minds of almost everyone. The seed of war is in everyone who perceives a world apart from oneself. The real question is, will you water the seed or pluck it before the seed takes root? Because a tree that bears no fruit will be cut away. Remember this, "The branch that bears no fruit will be cut off and will wither away. Be glad! The light will shine from the true Foundation of life, and your own thought system will stand corrected. It cannot stand otherwise. You who fear salvation are choosing death. Life and death, light and darkness, knowledge and perception, are irreconcilable. To believe that they can be reconciled is to believe that God and His Son can not. Only the oneness of knowledge is free of conflict. Your kingdom is not of this world because it was given you from beyond this world.

 

The worldly wars over its beliefs, its classes, and it seeming distinctions. There is no degree of war; a war is anything unlike perfect peace, either it's an irritation or a full on war between nations.  It's all the same. This is the authority problem, and is the only problem you really have. Until the source is healed there will always be confusion and hate, which is war. Remember this, " Besides your recognizing that thoughts are never idle, salvation requires that you also recognize that every thought you have brings either peace or war; either love or fear. A neutral result is impossible because a neutral thought is impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss fear thoughts as unimportant, trivial and not worth bothering about that it is essential you recognize them all as equally destructive, but equally unreal. We will practice this idea in many forms before you really understand it…take not one step in the descent to hell. For having taken one, you will not recognize the rest for what they are. And they will, follow. Attack in any form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from Heaven. Yet any instant it is possible to have all this undone. How can you know whether you chose the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily.

Separation 'question' revisited

Question:

In this total perfect love bliss where forgiveness is not even a
concept, our now, that we have forgotten, what was the cause that
effected the illusion of separation? And if it happened once can it
happen again? Why a mass forgetting?

Your love and attention is much appreciated and your responses are
eagerly awaited.

Beloved One,

Separation is an assumption, a belief, not a reality. The ego will
ask many questions that there is no conceptual answer for, such
as: "How did the separation happen?" "To whom did the separation
happen?" And many more. There is no theory or concept that can
answer an impossible or hypothetical question that has no basis in
reality. Yet if you look at some of the daily emotions that come up
for you, you can see that you believe that the separation happened.
That is why Christ says: To learn this Course requires willingness to
question every value that you hold. Not one belief can be kept
hidden or it will obscure your learning.

There is an experience that will come that will end all doubting.
Practically speaking, seek for the experience by questioning the ego
belief system of linear time-space, not how the impossible could have
happened. This is removing the obstacles to Love. :)

Beloved, through the 'parable of David' I have spoken in 20 countries
and on 4 continents to thousands of people around the world, and the
question being asked is the #1 question I hear. :)

The Joy and Love I experience some call Enlightenment, and it is
simply the Now. In the Now all seeming questions vanish in
Certainty, yet the questioning of the ego belief system was essential
in my Awakening. I have left many bread crumbs behind, so to speak,
in the hundreds of hours of gatherings that were shared all over the
world - many of which were recorded.

Forgiveness was the final concept, the only concept that released the
ego belief and yielded perfect Happiness. :) Forgiveness, or
Atonement, is thus the seeming gateway of experience that transcends
all theology and unreal questions. For you helpful questions are now
ones that undo or dissolve unconscious assumptions.

Check out the web site, and see how deep the rabbit hole goes. :)
The seeming amnesia about Love is undone in forgiveness. What
never 'happened' can thus never 'happen again.' And there is
no 'mass' forgetting in the Now, only One Being Loving. :)

Forever in Love,

David

Holy Spirit Speaks Part 3 of 5
Remember this From My Universal Curriculum

By giving you My Universal Curriculum I am merely holding up a mirror to point the way to the light of who You really are. I am not giving you this so one can make a new identity. You can take this truth or leave it. And many of you will leave it, for the obvious reason that you will not find gratification in My words. Therefore you will not support them, because you support what you value. Some of you will be tickled and love My words but you will be greatly confused and be teachers of ego. All are called but only a few will transfer My words fully in this generation. These words are for those who have the ears to hear. Remember this from My book A Course in Miracles, "To learn this course requires willingness to question every value that you hold. Not one can be kept hidden and obscure but it will jeopardize your learning. No belief is neutral. Every one has the power to dictate each decision you make. For a decision is a conclusion based on everything that you believe. It is the outcome of belief, and follows it as surely as does suffering follow guilt and freedom sinlessness. There is no substitute for peace. What God creates has no alternative. The truth arises from what He knows. And your decisions come from your beliefs as certainly as all creation rose in His Mind because of what He knows." (T.24.IN.2.1)

Defending and making another wrong through an intellectual stance of a particular spiritual idea, or any idea denies My Curriculum. The whole aim of My Universal Curriculum is to see the present moment as it is, to see that all is perfect now, that there is nothing to be resolved, corrected or fixed. Remember this, "To the extent to which you value guilt, to that extent will you perceive a world in which attack is justified. To the extent to which you recognize that guilt is meaningless, to that extent you will perceive attack cannot be justified. This is in accord with perception's fundamental law: You see what you believe is there, and you believe it there because you want it there. Perception has no other law than this. The rest but stems from this, to hold it up and offer it support. This is perception's form, adapted to this world, of God's more basic law; that love creates itself, and nothing but itself."

There is no journey to God; there is only the timeless moment of Now! When one recognizes this truth, you will see that the separation has not occurred. Remember this, "The mind can make the belief in separation very real and very fearful, and this belief is the "devil". It is powerful, active, destructive and clearly in opposition to God, because it literally denies His Fatherhood. Look at your life and see what the devil has made. But realize that this making will surely dissolve in the light of truth, because its foundation is a lie…Nothing at all has happened but that you have put yourself to sleep, and dreamed a dream in which you were an alien to yourself, and but a part of someone else's dream. The miracle does not awaken you, but merely shows you who the dreamer is. It teaches you there is a choice of dreams while you are still asleep, depending on the purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of healing, or for dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in that it pictures what you wanted shown to you."

I take no sides and I judge not the road you seem to travel. I perceive no separation, because I do not see what is not real. This is your calling, a calling into pure abstraction. But this is not what the world wants for spirituality or religion. This is too simple. Unless you believe <think> exactly as the world proclaims spirituality or religion to be, then you are wrong in its eyes. In the worlds eyes there are believers and the unbelievers. This is level confusion, confusing the form of My Universal Course (content) with its particular expression (form). It is important to know that God or Truth can be but known. The important thing to remember is that you are not on either side because there are no sides to truth! There is only Oneness. How can there be sides in abstraction, in Oneness? When we have abstraction, which is ones natural condition; then we have freedom because there is nothing to choose from. This is religion.

I want to make this clear: Nobody misleads anyone else. You are faithful to one or the other, the ego or Me. You make the choice. The most important idea to be clear on is the idea of `cause'. The closest approximation to `cause' or creation that the perceptual realm offers is `choice'. You are either choosing one thought system or another, fear or love, illusions or forgiveness and you cannot serve two masters. Love or fear is the only options that are available in the perceptual realm. And one of them is an illusion and the other is real, which is choiceless abstraction. Remember this, "Whatever is true is eternal, and cannot change or be changed. Spirit is therefore unalterable because it is already perfect, but the mind can elect what it chooses to serve. The only limit put on its choice is that it cannot serve two masters. If it elects to do so, the mind can become the medium by which spirit creates along the line of its own creation. If it does not freely elect to do so, it retains its creative potential but places itself under tyrannous rather than Authoritative control. As a result it imprisons, because such are the dictates of tyrants. To change your mind means to place it at the disposal of true Authority."

"No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."

Matthew 6:24

The power of your mind lies in your interpretation, so the question is; where do you want to place the power of your mind? Who do you want to lead you? Do you prefer the world and its system of thought or the complete relinquishment of the worlds system? Remember this, "You hate the one you gave the leader's role when you would have it, and you hate as well his not assuming it at times you want to let the follower in you arise, and give away the role of leadership. And this is what you made your brother for, and learned to think that this his purpose is. Unless he serves it, he has not fulfilled the function that was given him by you. And thus he merits death, because he has no purpose and no usefulness to you…. Christ calls to all with equal tenderness, seeing no leaders and no followers, and hearing but one answer to them all. Because He hears one Voice,he cannot hear a different answer from the one He gave when God appointed Him His only Son."

Having a belief system, a set of conceptual thoughts that you regard as the absolute truth, does not make you spiritual or an authority no matter what the foundation of those beliefs are. And in fact the more you make your thoughts (beliefs) into your identity, the more you will be blocked from loves awareness. This is why it's important to undo and question all beliefs. God is beyond belief. Remember this, "Nor is belief in God a really meaningful concept, for God can be but known. Belief implies that unbelief is possible, but knowledge of God has no true opposite. Not to know God is to have no knowledge, and it is to this that all unforgiveness leads. And without knowledge one can have only belief…. All terms are potentially controversial, and those who seek controversy will find it….Theological considerations as such are necessarily controversial, since they depend on belief and can therefore be accepted or rejected. A universal theology is impossible, but a universal experience is not only possible but necessary. It is this experience toward which the course is directed. Here alone consistency becomes possible because here alone uncertainty end."
