C:P.4 ego, assuming there would be such a state in which learning could  take place would be meaningless.
C:P.15 to you an invisible world in which you can believe but not  take part. You thus have placed the ego at odds with spirit, giving
C:P.28 from it. In such a world the question should not be why do so many  take their lives, but why do so few.
C:P.36 your body’s eyes that will view the new world you will behold and  take with you. To view a physical world of dimension, shape, and
C:P.40 well aware of the fact that if you could not see the transformation  take place “with your own two eyes,” you would not believe that the

C:P.43 You were your Self before you began your learning, and the ego cannot  take your Self from you but only can obscure it. Thus the teachings
C:P.44 This time we  take a direct approach, an approach that seems at first to leave
C:P.44 and the complex mechanisms of the mind that so betray you. We  take a step away from intellect, the pride of the ego, and approach
C:1.3 In your human form your heart must beat for the life of your self to  take place. This is the nature of your reality. Love is as essential
C:1.9 It is the desire to find your way on your own so that you can  take pride in your accomplishment, as if by following another’s map
C:3.13 that you have not learned before. Thus we move from head to heart to  take advantage of your concepts of the heart, concepts much more in
C:3.14 These words of love do not enter your body through your eyes and  take up residence in your brain, there to be distilled into a
C:3.16 mind from body, brain from head, and intelligence from knowledge,  take heart. We give up trying. We simply learn in a new way and in
C:3.17 easily contained within the casing of our flesh and bone. Our hearts  take wing with joy and break with sadness. Not so the brain that
C:3.18 and thereafter certainly to cause your ruin, I say to you again:  take heart. Such foolishness as your heart’s desires will save you
C:3.23 love can be kept apart from life in any way. But we begin now to  take life’s judgment from it, the judgments gained by your
C:4.22 demand that others bring what love they have into the madness to  take responsibility for the mess that has been made, to attempt to
C:4.25  Take all the images of love set apart that you have made and extend
C:4.27 into the nothingness from which it came as a new world rises up to  take its place.
C:5.6 when you go to write something down, but it is a relationship you  take so completely for granted that you have forgotten that it
C:5.17 is not one of joining. What you join with becomes real. As you  take it into your Self you thereby make it real because you make it
C:7.12 else. If you succeed through anger, spite, or meanness, you simply  take on guilt and withdraw still further into your own misery.
C:7.23 a new authority, even if only for the little while that it will  take you to read these words. Start with this idea: You will allow
C:9.5 Look around the room in which you sit and  take away the usefulness from each thing you see in it. How many
C:9.10 upon your body now as you earlier looked upon the space you occupy.  Take away the body’s usefulness. Would you keep that which you now
C:9.28 be other than what it is? Have you not seen this kind of distortion  take place within the reality you do see? Is this not the story of
C:9.40 of victory for himself. You realize not that if you were to stop and  take your brother’s hand, the racecourse would become a valley full
C:9.41 is so. This idolatry tells you that glory is for the few, and so you  take your place in line at the starting gate and make your bid for
C:10.3 wholly consistent as the thought system of illusion, and you cannot  take what you will and leave the rest. Thus we will continue to point
C:10.21 so fulfilling that once you have experienced it you say, “I will  take this despair no more.” For others this threshold is the
C:10.31 of the experiment you will also encounter fear, especially if you  take the game too seriously. There will be times when you will not
C:10.32 just want to read about this Course, perhaps, and not be required to  take it. You will want to keep it theoretical and not apply it. You
C:11.5 Course—your awareness of what love is—and no earthly course can  take you beyond this goal. It is only your willingness that is
C:11.9 so. But because you view free will as all you have that God cannot  take away from you, you have not yet given up its protection. It does
C:11.9 it is insane to think that He who has given you everything seeks to  take anything away from you. While you still view yourself as a body,
C:11.9 God you think you know has given you everything, but He can also  take it all away, and in the end He surely will. He then will judge
C:11.13 the final line of defense, the site where the final battle will  take place. Before this final battle is reached your willingness to
C:11.18 a social obligation. But a dinner party where love is welcomed to  take its place becomes a celebration. Your table becomes an altar to
C:12.1 The word love is part of your problem with this Course. If I were to  take the word love and change it to some sophisticated-sounding
C:12.16 ability as symbols, and that farther than where these symbols can  take you, the truth lies within your Self.
C:12.18 You may very well say, however, that an idea seemed to  take on a life of its own and compel you to do things you might have
C:12.21 so too, did this idea of separation. But just as your ideas do not  take on a life of their own even though they at times seem to, this
C:13.1 This seeming togetherness of bodies is just a first step that will  take you beyond the illusion of bodies to togetherness of spirit.
C:13.7 This exercise should  take no time nor break your stride or the flow of your conversation.
C:14.20 is the chance that cannot be foreseen but is always there: death may  take their loved one prematurely, and if not prematurely certainly
C:14.28 quickly rushes in with love’s replacement. Nothing but fear could  take the memory of love from you, or replace so quickly the glory
C:16.21 you also fear them, and they in turn fear the powerless who might  take away their power or rise up against them. What kind of power is
C:16.23 who you are, and there is nothing in the world that has the power to  take this right from you. The only way you lose it is by giving it

C:26.19 asks only that you be open and allow giving and receiving as one to  take place. It asks only that you be unoccupied with the old so that

T1:6.2 How is this revelation to  take place? It will begin by learning the art of thought as the act

T1:9.13 called into question or your ideas? And what guise did the ego  take as it rallied to your aide? Did it require you to retreat or
T1:10.7 give up extremes? Yes. You are being asked to give up all that would  take peace from you. But as you have been told before, you will be
T1:10.7 to those living at the extremes and there is no reason not to  take joy in observing another’s happiness or to feel compassion at
T2:2.5 What overriding kindness calls one to  take care of another’s body, to be a healer?
T2:3.4 that is now the Self of learning and experience. You must  take on the mantle of your new identity, your new Self.
T2:6.5 anything without taking into account the time that it will  take? Relate this question to our discussion of treasure and you will
T2:7.6 This source is the ego. Even now, the ego will  take every opportunity that arises to prove to you that independence
T2:7.6 will work diligently to convince you that any course that tries to  take away your independence should be resisted. As long as you
T2:7.21 recognition of receiving and of needs being met may seem to still  take time, this belief builds on the belief of the already
T2:8.3 all others. This is giving and receiving as one. What you gain will  take nothing from anyone. What another is able to give you will take
T2:8.3 will take nothing from anyone. What another is able to give you will  take nothing from them, and what you are able to give another will
T2:8.3 take nothing from them, and what you are able to give another will  take nothing from you.
T2:8.4 Self and to act on this knowing. These are calls to truth and but  take the form of honesty for a brief time as the truth of who you are
T2:8.6 of yourself that you reveal now will not become a new truth as you  take a new path. Your path now is sure and its final acceptance

T2:11.3 to be toppled, the one-on-one conflict of all heroes who would  take sides and do battle.
T2:12.4 Miracles are intercessions. As such they are agreements. They do not  take away free will but free the will to respond to truth. They are
T3:2.11 parameters, for it has not allowed you to imagine being able to  take steps “back” to the God you believe you left in defiance, or the
T3:4.3 Before we can go on you must  take all such ideas from your mind. Such ideas are not small matters.
T3:9.2 once did. Yet, as these ideas are not learned ideas, they will not  take time, as did the ego’s ideas, to spread through learning.
T3:9.5 you love and gently tug them through its doors. You will be able to  take note of the explosions happening within and will want to return
T3:10.4 I offer you no word or sentiment to replace it. I ask you simply to  take the thought of it from your mind as quickly as it enters.

T3:17.5 the true, your true Self had to be appealed to for this learning to  take place.
T3:18.3 form. It is thus from observable form that the final learning will  take place. This is the perfect example of using what you have made
T3:20.2 time is but a measurement of, it rightly follows that learning can  take place at a slow pace or a fast pace. There is no more or less to
T3:22.1 You would like to know in what direction living by the truth will  take you, for surely your life must change. The very precepts put
T3:22.14 separated from what will be by your effort and the time that it will  take you to, through your effort, create the desired outcome.
T4:1.4 unavailable for choosing? Can you choose to own another’s property?  Take another’s husband or wife? Choosing is not taking. Choosing

T4:4.18 As form becomes a representation of Christ-consciousness, it will  take on the nature of Christ-consciousness, of which my life was the
T4:4.18 of the human and the divine as a new state of being. This union will  take you beyond the goal of expressing your Self in form because this

D:8.1 as the dot within the circle, I ask you to imagine now being able to  take a step outside of the area of this dot, and into the area of the

T3:16.8 to “accomplish” set goals in life. The key to resisting these  temptations is not resistance at all but the idea that you are
T3:16.12 and as such is the greatest detriment to your new beginning. These  temptations relate to everything you fear to do because of the
T3:16.12 certainty and result in a lack of trust. The key to resisting these  temptations is not resistance at all but the idea that there is no

territory (22)

C:11.3 be confident in your learning skills and rush in to conquer this new  territory as you have others that have come before. These would read
D:7.28 places of civic duty or social engagement. You may expand this small  territory you call your own with business travel or vacations, and
D:7.28 you dwell. What I ask you to do is to think of these areas as the  territory of your body, and to remember that while this is your
D:7.28 the territory of your body, and to remember that while this is your  territory, it is a shared territory and a territory within the
D:7.28 and to remember that while this is your territory, it is a shared  territory and a territory within the territory of planet Earth.
D:7.28 that while this is your territory, it is a shared territory and a  territory within the territory of planet Earth.
D:7.28 your territory, it is a shared territory and a territory within the  territory of planet Earth.
D:7.29 Thus we will begin once again with parameters, with a  territory of shared consciousness, rather than with consciousness of
D:7.29 rather than with consciousness of the All of Everything. This  territory we will call the territory of your conscious awareness.
D:7.29 of the All of Everything. This territory we will call the  territory of your conscious awareness. This territory of conscious
D:7.29 we will call the territory of your conscious awareness. This  territory of conscious awareness is shared with the larger

D:7.29 of your body is shared with those who live and work nearby. This  territory of conscious awareness exists within the larger
D:7.29 exists within the larger consciousness of unity, just as the  territory of your body exists within the larger territory of the
D:7.29 unity, just as the territory of your body exists within the larger  territory of the planet Earth. We will begin here, with the territory
D:7.29 larger territory of the planet Earth. We will begin here, with the  territory of your conscious awareness, knowing that discovery and
D:7.29 awareness, knowing that discovery and revelation will expand this  territory, and realizing that no matter how small this cosmic
D:7.29 this territory, and realizing that no matter how small this cosmic  territory may be, it will still at times give way to awareness of the

D:8.7 level, and will help establish it as the first parameter in the  territory of your conscious awareness.
D:9.11 We thus return to discovery and continue to expand the  territory of your conscious awareness. We do this by discussing now
D:12.8 the “thoughts” these words symbolize. Thus we continue to expand the  territory of your conscious awareness through this realization that

C:21.2 from particulars. I repeat that relationship exists between one  thing and another and that it is in the intersection of parts that
C:21.3 feel, you need no judgment to tell you the difference between one  thing and another. You thus can begin to quit relying on your body’s
C:21.8 moral conflict, an example being the individual knowing the “right”  thing to do but acting instead on what is the accepted thing to do

T2:4.2 you are at the mercy of fate. Fate and creation are hardly the same  thing. You are at the mercy only of your own ego and only until you
T2:4.17 recognize it not as such. It is not a process of waiting until one  thing is accomplished for another to begin. What is happening now is
T2:7.11 The only  thing that will prevent this is your ability to go out into the world
T2:7.14 the same as saying you are a being who needs relationship. The only  thing that keeps you, in this new pattern, from being needy and
T2:9.14 There is no such  thing as a static level in unity where creation is continuous and
T2:11.4 ego is the one untruth, given many names and many faces and the only  thing given by you the power to do battle with the truth, or with
T2:11.13 contingent upon relationship for its existence, is this not the same  thing as saying that you are a being who exists in relationship? Is
T2:12.5 in miracles and your belief in atonement or correction are the same  thing. While you believe there is anything other than your own

T3:13.10 to do. You may even begin by something as simple as choosing one  thing a day that you will change to reflect the fact that you have
T3:21.9 a set of information. These facts are subject to change and mean one  thing to one person and one thing to another. Illusion is symbolic.
T3:21.9 facts are subject to change and mean one thing to one person and one  thing to another. Illusion is symbolic. And what’s more it symbolizes
T3:22.5 that a specific role is required of you, or that you have a specific  thing to do of which you need to be aware, are functions of the
T3:22.12 thought that this creative tension would not necessarily be a good  thing to give up. You do not know how to reach beyond what was for
T4:1.15 so that you are left with no confusion and only certainty. The only  thing that will dispel this confusion and bring you the certainty
T4:7.5 exists in the state or reality in which you think you are. The only  thing that has created an unreal reality for your heart and body has
T4:8.16 and pride that at least you know all there is to know about this one  thing. This was the ego’s answer to being a learning being—choosing
T4:9.5 You have begun to see that all messages of the truth say the same  thing but in different ways. There seems to be nothing new to be
T4:12.11 Another  thing that you will want to be vigilant of, dear brothers and
T4:12.20 The only  thing that is going to hold you back from your ability to sustain
D:2.12 This will not often prevent you from trying the same  thing again although at times it will. No matter what you try,
D:3.5 Sustaining Christ-consciousness will accomplish the same  thing in your world.
D:4.19 I speak of structure here not as a  thing—not as a building in which to dwell or as a set of rules or
D:6.6 you have made you have not made from nothing. There is not one  thing that you have made that does not exist as some variation of
D:6.20 force that has no reality except in your imagination. What is this  thing called fate? Like all the systems you believe in, it is a

C:25.19 be done with patience, grace, and love. You will learn that other  things you have done, beliefs you have held, patterns and habits that

C:27.19 provides a constant knowing of this sort, a simple knowing of a way  things are meant to be. It is a knowing felt within the heart for
C:29.14 while you look at life in terms of schedules, plans, time-tables, or  things to get done. No wholeness will be possible for you while you
C:31.19 as a learning device to help you remember who you are. Those  things about which you feel guilt and shame are simply the remnants
C:31.20 Who you are is love, and all  things brought to love are seen in a new light, a light that keeps
T1:2.2 you to leave behind within the pages of A Course of Love. These many  things which seemed so distinct and separate and which ranged from

T2:7.2 waiting to happen, love that is not returned, the withholding of  things you deem important. This fear that you feel in relation to
T2:7.10 idea of the desire for change. Certainly there will continue to be  things within your life that are in need of change. As was stated in
T2:11.12 Separate  things must still exist in relationship. This is the key to
T3:1.7 which you have been called. These changes, perhaps, seem like little  things—a change in attitude here, a change in behavior there. But I

T3:5.5 have already tried to learn. This Course has come so that these many  things that you have tried need not be repeated, just as the
T3:7.6 many doors to the same house and but thought them to offer different  things, only to find that the house you entered was still the same
T3:8.1 Kingdom of God. I remind you, once again, that what you have called  things are but representations too and that we move now beyond
T3:9.3 no new learning at all. You will be tempted, at first, to see  things that are like unto those within the house of illusion and call
T3:11.2 larger, an all-encompassing recognition of the unity of all  things with which the Self coexists in truth and peace and love.
T3:13.2 in regards to extremes of the human experience, saying that these  things that draw you from the peace of God draw you from the state in
T3:13.4 temptations we are beginning to lay out. Because you have made these  things that would but seem to tempt you, you have believed in them
T3:13.13 is the action of giving birth. Realize that you believe in many  things that did not originate with yourself. But it is not until you
T3:14.2 the thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe in such  things as benevolence and abundance. What this means is that you will
T3:14.7 disrespect. It is only by your choice that you will keep these  things and only by your choice that these things will leave you.
T3:14.7 that you will keep these things and only by your choice that these  things will leave you.
T3:14.10 If there are  things that you, at this point, still hold to yourself and call
T3:15.2 beginnings of all kinds within the human experience are ideas that  things cannot be different than they once were. The only true
T3:17.2 this beginning of making distinctions between the self and all other  things in creation that existed with the self. This is why the story
T3:17.2 every day to understanding the unity and interconnectedness of all  things.
T3:17.8 as the truth is the truth and illusion is illusion; just as these  things are what they are without judgment; so is the beginning the
T3:18.10 shared by all. This is the relationship of the truth that unites all  things and that must now become observable.
T3:19.2 —no joy felt by the physical form alone—the joy that comes of  things physical can certainly still be experienced and expressed.
T3:19.4 from lust and greed, hate and fear, vengeance and retribution. These  things have always had as their cause the thought system of the ego
T3:20.14 and let not the suffering of the world call you from it. When these  things of the world threaten to call you from your peace, you must
T3:21.11 of this as being certain of facts and information, for these are the  things about yourself that few of you have doubted. Those who have
T3:21.11 your family and the accumulated experiences of your lifetime are the  things upon which you draw to feel the certainty you feel about your
T3:21.11 white or Indian. Your personal self may be deeply affected by these  things you call yourself or may be minimally affected.
T3:21.12 And even more so than these  things, although this hasn’t as often been considered as part of what
T3:21.12 changeable, are unmistakably claimed to be your own in the way few  things, in addition to your name and family of origin ever are. Even
T3:21.13 fall within the parameters of your belief system. You think of these  things as part of what make up the totality of who you are, of your
T3:21.16 All of these  things have contributed to your idea that you are a separate being
T3:21.17 system has changed and you believe that you exist in unity, all the  things we have enumerated above will act to challenge these beliefs
T3:21.18 Thus, certain  things about your personal self must be accepted as aspects of your
T3:22.10 You have needed to become bored with what has been, tired of the way  things were, uninterested in matters of a personal nature. This very
T4:2.32 All of these  things are possible. But true vision is seeing relationship and
T4:3.2 has to do with the divine pattern, the unity that binds all living  things. Observation is the means of seeing this binding pattern in
T4:3.4 Original intent has everything to do with the nature of  things for original intent is synonymous with cause. The original
T4:3.6 tests of time. Thus did the world become a world of effort with all  things in it and beyond it, including God, weighed and balanced
T4:7.3 The understanding of the unity that creates and sustains all living  things will now be as close to the surface of consciousness as was,
T4:8.7 to breathe, to speak, to walk, much as a baby learns to do these  things, and that these things were loving acts within a loving
T4:8.7 to walk, much as a baby learns to do these things, and that these  things were loving acts within a loving universe, a love-filled

T4:10.6 The outcome of learning or what is studied is the production of  things and perceived meaning.
T4:10.7 What we work toward now is to advance from learning and producing  things and perceived meaning, to producing unity and relationship
T4:10.8 one, cause and effect the same. Thus this applied learning produced  things and perceived meaning.

D:1.26 Learning accepts that there are those separate from you who know  things that you know not. This is not the case. When you fully accept
D:2.1 You are now asked to do two  things simultaneously: To accept the new and to deny the old.
D:3.19 once newly birthed even though my Self was eternal. One of the major  things we will be seeing as we proceed is the difference between form
D:5.2 These distortions occurred as you assigned meaning or “truth” to  things, truly believing in your ability to do so. You thus determined
D:5.7 body and its acts as representative of truth. You have thought the  things you do represent your drives, but they simply represent what
D:6.6 for everything that exists in form is of the same Source. Even those  things you have made you have not made from nothing. There is not one
D:6.8 What is not real are the  things that you have made to represent what is real since you didn’t
D:6.8 what is real since you didn’t understand what it was you were making  things to represent. These are the systems we have already spoken of:
D:7.9 for content, and need not be maligned. The content of all living  things is the energy of the spirit of wholeheartedness. The content
D:7.9 energy of the spirit of wholeheartedness. The content of all living  things is, in other words, whole. By seeing only aspects of wholeness
D:8.2 said or been told you have a natural talent or ability to do. These  things some of you have practiced or studied to take advantage of
D:9.7 As we continue, you may feel as if contradictory  things are being said, such as being called to consider what
D:13.8 of the time of Christ, and you will begin to see the evidence that  things are different now. Join with others who are coming to know
D:Day3.3 quit resisting most of this learning and “accepted” it as the way  things are. This kind of acceptance is what we are reversing with a
D:Day3.14 and so you would rather not even attempt an understanding of how  things might be different. As far as you have come, these ideas are
D:Day3.26 Do not feel dejected that you have not learned these  things. They were learned, to the degree that you could learn them
D:Day3.33 think that money spent on the more lasting pleasures such as the  things described above is the secret.
D:Day3.59 reality of lack. You cannot accept that in the reality of unity all  things come to you without effort or striving except money. You
D:Day4.6 You might begin to think of all the “givens” of unity as those  things that require no thinking.
D:Day4.9 of an externalized system. That you all attempt to learn the same  things, and in coming to identify the world in the same way—the way
D:Day4.9 cause of the insanity of the world and of your anger with the way  things “are” within the world. This is an anger that stems from lack
D:Day4.9 anger that stems from lack of choice. When you are “taught” the “way  things are,” where is the room for choice? Where is the room for
D:Day4.10 taught what life is all about, not to relearn or be taught the “way  things are” but to discover what life is all about and to discover
D:Day4.10 to discover what life is all about and to discover the way to remake  things as they are.
D:Day4.15 ideas that were not gained through effort. We have spoken of these  things to begin to familiarize you with the “given” world as opposed

D:Day4.52 of you, or because you still feel like bargaining with God. These  things are only reactions to faulty perceptions, only the steps
D:Day4.57 your becoming is your enlightenment realized without judgment. These  things become not achievements, but the acknowledgments of the

D:Day5.26 So we will continue our work now in releasing you from those  things that would still block your full awareness.
D:Day6.6 How might these  things be linked to the example of creating art? I choose this
D:Day8.8 to effect change comes from acceptance—not acceptance of the way  things are, but acceptance of who you are in the present. Not through
D:Day8.8 way you want to be but of the way you are now. There will be many  things within your life that will take some time to change, but many
D:Day8.8 to practice acceptance of the present, that there will be far fewer  things you do not like, and that you will be shown, in the
D:Day9.28 these learning practices were the product of false images of the way  things—and you—should be! Can you not see the extreme urgency of
D:Day10.26 This is why we have recently spoken of anger and of those  things which you dislike—why we have spoken, in short, of the
D:Day10.35 of the issues facing your time in order to speak to you of such  things, I am aware of them. So is every other living thing because

C:P.15 By rejecting who you are, you are demonstrating that you  think you can believe in some of the truth but not all of it. Many of
C:P.18 good intentions and willing with God? The difference is in who you  think you are and who God knows you to be. While this difference
C:P.18 your will with God or do what God has appointed you to do. Who you  think you are reveals the choice that you have made. It is either a
C:P.20 works but that you do not know how to do what God asks of you. You  think, if God asked me to build a bridge I would build a bridge, and
C:P.20 and union with God and all your brothers and sisters. You prefer to  think a good deed here, a bit of charity there, is more important.
C:P.28 strife, there is another part of you that knows this is not true.  Think back, and you will remember that, from the earliest of ages you
C:P.31 they stand for, what their truth is, what rules they obey, how they  think and how what they think aligns with what they do is the essence
C:P.31 truth is, what rules they obey, how they think and how what they  think aligns with what they do is the essence of knowing them. God
C:1.6 by letting them go. Remember that your worries affect nothing. You  think if your worries affect time this is an effect, but time is an
C:1.12 heart yearns for what is like itself. Thus love yearns for love. To  think of achieving love “on one’s own” is ludicrous. This is why love
C:1.14 what this Course is about. It has nothing to do with struggle. You  think also that to leave struggle behind, to disengage from the
C:1.14 back on the real world and all that has meaning in it. In this you  think correctly. And yet you do not choose this option, thinking that
C:1.14 you in distractions that keep you from your real responsibility.  Think again about your attraction to struggle. It is your attraction
C:1.18 creates love. A choice for fear creates fear. What choice do you  think has been made to create the world you call your home? This
C:2.2 They simply realize love is all there is. Nothing unreal exists.  Think for yourself: If you were going to die tomorrow what would you
C:2.4 Love is the name you give to much you fear. You  think that it is possible to choose it as a means to buy your safety
C:2.6 proportions. You again label love a “sometimes” component and  think that to act in love more frequently is an achievement. You
C:2.8 of doing, and few of you believe you will succeed. Others refuse to  think of life in terms of purpose and thereby condemn themselves to
C:2.8 up on one and hoping that the other will bring them some peace. To  think that these are the only options available to creatures of a
C:2.8 to creatures of a loving God is insane. Yet you believe that to  think the opposite is true insanity. Given even your limited view of
C:2.10 look on a loveless world, on misery and despair, and not be moved?  Think not that those who seem to add to the world’s misery are any
C:2.10 They are not there! This is the miracle. The miracle is true seeing.  Think not that love can look on misery and see love there. Love looks
C:2.11 believe in a God who is compassionate as you are compassionate. You  think you would end misery if you could, beginning with your own, and
C:2.16 reversal has not occurred because you separate mind and heart and  think you can involve one without involving the other. You believe
C:2.16 are. Thus you can know without that knowing being who you are. You  think you can love without love being who you are. Nothing stands
C:3.7 forms a day with different names and different functions and you  think not that they are all the same. You place values on each one
C:3.11 this world? It means that you filter it through the same lens. You  think of it in the same way. You seek to gather it together so that
C:3.12  Think not that your mind as you conceive of it learns without
C:3.18 You who  think this idea is rife with sentiment, sure to lead you to
C:3.21  Think not that these are senseless questions, made to bring love and
C:3.23  Think you not that love can be kept apart from life in any way. But
C:4.2 before you can love for love’s sake. What is a false idol? What you  think love will get you. You are entitled to all that love would give
C:4.2 You are entitled to all that love would give but not to what you  think love will provide for you through its acquisition. This is a
C:4.10 better place. The heart knows not these distinctions, and those who  think their hearts have learned them by being battered and abused by
C:4.12 When you  think of acting out of love, your thoughts of love are based on
C:4.12 something to be gained at too high a price, that devotion you might  think is fine for one whose partner is more loving than your own,
C:4.15 an ideal that changed over time. Those most bound by the ego might  think of stature and of wealth, of physical beauty and the trappings
C:4.18 all that is set apart in your perception from what you do here. You  think this setting apart gives love little relevance to other areas
C:4.26 secure within you and your brother, as you join together in truth.  Think you not that this joining is a metaphor, a string of pleasant
C:5.2 have so filled your mind with senseless wanderings and thoughts that  think of nothing that is real, rejoice that there is a way to end
C:5.4 same is true of relationship. God creates all relationship. When you  think of relationship, you think of one relationship and then
C:5.4 God creates all relationship. When you think of relationship, you  think of one relationship and then another. The one you share with
C:5.5 with any of the specific details or forms of your world. You  think relationship exists between one body and another, and while you
C:5.5 relationship exists between one body and another, and while you  think this is so, you will not understand relationship or union or
C:5.8 “Ah,” you  think when you find love, “now my heart is singing; now I know what
C:5.20 to union.” As often as you need to replace senseless thoughts,  think of this and say it to yourself not once but a hundred times a
C:5.22 and alone. Your entire resistance to God is based on this. You  think you have chosen to be separate from God so that you can make it
C:5.23 the adversity and obstacles that would keep you from having what you  think you want to have. This is your definition of life, and while it
C:5.24 again to not be what you want once you have achieved it. Yet you  think when this occurs that you have simply chosen the wrong thing
C:5.25 failed to work will surely fail again. Stop now and give up what you  think you want.
C:5.30 relationship with you would add to your discomfort and your pain. To  think that any relationship can cause terror, discomfort, or pain is
C:5.31 You  think that to come in contact with violence is to have a relationship
C:6.10 in effort to attain it? And even if it were so, what then? Some, you  think, might choose to live near the equator, to have the sun shine
C:6.10 the need to stoke the fire put behind them. But not you. You, you  think, prefer the seasons, the cold as well as the warmth, the snow
C:6.12 Heaven and its milieu of eternal peace is rightly kept, you  think, for the end of life, and so you scream at the unfairness when
C:6.16 and the rain falls on the good and evil alike.” Why then do you  think that peace is endless sunshine? Peace is merely enjoyment of
C:6.19  Think about this now—for how could heaven be a separate place? A
C:6.20 those you love severed when they leave this world? Do you not still  think of them? And do you not still think of them as who they were in
C:6.20 this world? Do you not still think of them? And do you not still  think of them as who they were in life? What is the difference, in
C:7.23 be open to a new kind of evidence of what constitutes the truth.  Think of no other outcomes than your happiness, and when happiness
C:8.6 You  think of the heart as the place of feeling, and thus you associate
C:8.8 What foolishness to  think love could abide with companions such as these. If these be in
C:8.9 your heart lies love’s reality, a reality so foreign to you that you  think you remember it not. Yet it is to this reality we head as we
C:8.15  Think of your body now as the surface of your existence and look upon
C:8.17 you are, and you could not be anywhere else. Your home is here. You  think this is incongruous with the truth as I’m revealing it, the
C:8.17 home, but it is not. There is no here in the terms that you would  think of it, the terms that set your reality in a location, on a
C:8.19 described in A Course in Miracles as the Holy Instant. You may not  think observation of your body is a good way to achieve this, but as
C:8.26 How like to memory it is to  think a thing remembered in every smallest detail and yet to have no
C:8.26 is twisted and distorted by what you would have it be. Everyone can  think of at least one long remembered incident that when given to the
C:9.6 just like every other object that shares the space you occupy.  Think for a moment of what the creator of such a body would have
C:9.10 back and observe your body, always with the vision of your heart,  think about just what it is that you would use it for. What God
C:9.21  Think now of one of those you have identified as living the life of
C:9.21 absence of hunger is fullness. The absence of violence peace. You  think that if you but provide these things that are opposite to what
C:9.22 I have said when you do this unto others you do this to me. Do you  think that I am in need of a meal, a cup of water, a warm bed? While
C:9.30  Think of your automobile or computer or any other thing you use.
C:9.38 your prayerfulness. Like a diversified investment portfolio, you  think this parceling out of different aspects of yourself protects
C:9.43 based on use is to see a world where freedom is impossible. What you  think you need your sister for is thus based upon this insane premise
C:9.43 or athletic or artistic talent that can be used, how lucky you  think you are. A beautiful face and a fit body can be traded for so
C:9.45 All such confusion stems from the initial confusion of the use you  think your body would put you to. All such confusion stems from your
C:9.46 from God, still you blame God for creating a situation in which you  think you have been allowed to hurt yourself. How could God allow all
C:10.1 your separation. That it has seeming power can only be because you  think you put your power there. If this were true, much power indeed
C:10.1 with the power of creation without your joining with it. How, you  think, could you be more linked with anything than you are with your
C:10.3 separate from your own and must exist in the reality where you  think you are.
C:10.5 the greatest hurdle to overcome. As you observe the body and dare to  think of life without it, you again and again encounter its reality.
C:10.5 to you that it is insurmountable. Many people at this point try to  think these maladies away, and when they do not succeed they see this
C:10.5 evidence of their entrenchment in the body. Beware all attempts to  think the body away and to think miracles into existence. This desire
C:10.5 in the body. Beware all attempts to think the body away and to  think miracles into existence. This desire merely shows you know not
C:10.7  Think of another, a teacher or a parent, whose “voice” you hear as
C:10.12 in God, in me, in heaven and in an afterlife is that you do not  think you will be proven wrong here. If you are wrong, you will
C:10.26 conceived from meanness. There will be a happier self who seems to  think this game is rather fun, and who is not at all concerned with
C:11.2 You  think your source and your Creator are two separate things, and too
C:11.9 To  think you must protect anything from God is insane, and you know that
C:11.9 up its protection. It does not matter to you that it is insane to  think that He who has given you everything seeks to take anything
C:11.9 you. While you still view yourself as a body, you cannot help but  think of God as a vengeful God whose final vengeance is your own
C:11.9 God whose final vengeance is your own death. While you still  think of your self as a body, it is easier to accept that your
C:11.9 your banishment from paradise was God’s decision, not your own. You  think you can be grateful to Him for some things and blame Him for
C:11.9 for some things and blame Him for others. Yes, perhaps this God you  think you know has given you everything, but He can also take it all
C:11.10 and cherish your free will, the true god of the separated self. You  think at times that this was God’s mistake, the one weakness in His
C:11.10 weakness in His plan, and one that you would use. At other times you  think that this was but God’s curse on you, a thing to tempt you to
C:11.17 you to do nothing but to remain faithful to it. You do not need to  think about it, but only let it be. You need put no words on it, for
C:12.2 to be told you know love not. You feel a little deceived to  think that love may not be limited to what you have thought it to be.
C:12.2 that love may not be limited to what you have thought it to be. You  think it is typical of a spiritual text to tell you love is the
C:12.7 to any ideas that seem to be about change. What little that you  think you know you would strive to keep, and yet deep down you
C:12.8 change at all, for it merely seeks to remove all the changes you but  think that you have made to God’s creation. This change seeks but to
C:12.15 Joined minds cannot  think separately and have no hidden thoughts. They are, in fact, not
C:13.8 but know that anything that distracts you from the little self you  think you are is worth the minutes you would give to its
C:14.1 within God’s creation, rather than in the world that you have made.  Think but a minute of this, and you will begin to see the enormity of
C:14.2 can be achieved any more than can your separation from what you  think is unlike you.
C:14.6 who is insane. You—who pride yourself on reason and practicality—  think if a creation such as this could contain any reason whatsoever.
C:14.7 You who have made a god of reason and of intellect,  think carefully now of what your reason and your intellect have made
C:14.9  Think you not that reason opposes love, for love gives reason its
C:14.15 that you consider valuable you could not wait to share. Perhaps you  think the desire to keep things for yourself stems from something
C:14.18 You  think that you are quite aware of your small space within the
C:14.18 within the universe, and that it is foolishness to say that you  think otherwise. Yet, since only what you know is part of your
C:14.21 still believe that love exists despite fear’s claim upon it, and  think that they are lucky to have found a love to shield them for a
C:14.22 make you special to someone else, and that one special to you. You  think this is what love is for, and so you make of it something it is
C:14.29 You  think love is what you value most, and so resist any notion that what
C:14.29 and so resist any notion that what you view as love is not what you  think it is. But as long as you equate love with the special ones on
C:14.30 fact, you have no hope of change, nor does your world. You who  think, “What harm can come of loving this one above all others?”
C:14.30 who think, “What harm can come of loving this one above all others?”  think again. For you are choosing not to love but to make special.
C:15.1 to love without the interference of all that would make special. You  think issues of survival rule the world—and so they do, but they
C:15.4 parents or your friends, and would be quite content to have them  think you special and to make them special to you. Out in the wider
C:15.4 special and to make them special to you. Out in the wider world you  think you are anonymous and so are they. If within the small sphere
C:15.7 to you. It diminishes your freedom, and for no end. For what others  think of you does not make you special, nor does what you think or do
C:15.7 others think of you does not make you special, nor does what you  think or do for others make them special. All notions of popularity,
C:15.9 seems the ultimate act of disloyalty to your own kind. To even  think that you could change and be unlike others of your kind, you
C:16.1 not from another. Love is not available from anyone in the way you  think it is. Love has but one source! That this source lies within
C:16.12 but true forgiveness is as foreign to you as is true love. You  think forgiveness looks upon another in judgment and pardons the
C:16.14 You  think you cannot give up your vigilance because you know no other way
C:16.15 many that you do not are all that make your life worth living. You  think that to be asked to give up the caution, protection, and
C:16.16 and culture indulge in the desire to judge, the more godlike they  think they make themselves. For all of you here know that judgment is
C:16.18 who judges all of creation as it was created and remains. You only  think that you have changed the unchangeable.
C:16.22 in your identity. For you are not powerless. Those of you who  think you have traditional means of power on your side turn not to
C:16.24 not want. You look back on stories of sacrifice from the Bible and  think what a barbaric time that was, and yet you repeat the same
C:16.24 it a waste, and yet you give up your power to be who you are and  think it is just the way life is. You give away your power and then
C:16.25 power created the world of illusion in which you live, and so you  think another must be able to do it better. You no longer trust
C:16.25 do, you reason, society would collapse and anarchy would rule. You  think you are only fair in deciding that if everyone cannot do what
C:18.4 Yet this is, in effect, what you  think you have done. You think that you have changed the nature of
C:18.4 Yet this is, in effect, what you think you have done. You  think that you have changed the nature of the universe and made it
C:18.22 While we spoke of what you  think of as emotion being reactions of the body to stimulus, we did
C:18.24 and replace them with feelings of love causes all your distress.  Think not that you react to pain of any kind with the love from your
C:19.13 of duality. It cannot be otherwise in your separated state. You must  think in terms of “I” and “them,” “death and life,” “good and evil.”
C:19.16 To  think without thought or know without words are ideas quite foreign
C:19.22 more in the way of reflection than review, although if you were to  think of this as a re-viewing of your self, you would be quite
C:20.14 I am alive and you do believe this or you would not be here. Yet you  think not of me living and imagine it not. Christ reigns in the
C:20.29 Miracles are expressions of love. You might  think of them as acts of cooperation. Holiness cannot be contained,
C:20.47 the greater life of the universe. You must understand that when you  think of your personal life, personal concerns, personal
C:20.47 to me and they are all I need concern myself with.” Even when you  think of expanding your view, you deem that expansion unrealistic.
C:20.48 the return to what is known. This knowing you might call wisdom and  think of as an attainable ideal of thought. Yet it is not about
C:22.9 day must pass through you in order to gain reality. While you might  think of this as everything outside of yourself, please, when
C:22.11 You might  think of the axis for a moment as a funnel through which eternity is
C:22.12 pass through one or another of your five senses—which you might  think of collectively as layers—and are allowed no other access.
C:22.19 The personal and individual is the “I” we are dispelling.  Think a moment of how you tell a story or report on events that have
C:22.20 when you walk out your door in the morning you might generally  think, “What a lovely day.” What this sentence says is that you have
C:23.9 in a small room. This is not relationship. When you are tempted to  think of relationship having to do with physical proximity, think of
C:23.9 to think of relationship having to do with physical proximity,  think of this example. Now imagine communities of faith. Around the
C:23.10 This is true of the body as well.  Think of the way in which the word body is used and this will be
C:25.13 as hurt, but you do feel these emotions as wounds. While you  think you can remain disappointed or disillusioned, you will not be
C:25.23 this is exactly when a time of stillness is needed. You might  think of this time of stillness as a time of consulting with your new
C:26.1 career, religious commitment, or creative endeavors. Some would  think of travel and adventure, friendships, or financial security.
C:26.1 and adventure, friendships, or financial security. Most of you will  think of having a long life.
C:26.7 if you were to attempt to assign the meaning to your life that you  think it should have, a fall would surely await you, at least in your
C:26.22  Think a moment of a novel or movie with no plot. This would be the
C:26.25 of that thought and that pattern. The only way to know it is to  think it once again. The only way to think it once again is to be
C:26.25 The only way to know it is to think it once again. The only way to  think it once again is to be wholehearted, for a split mind and heart
C:26.25 once again is to be wholehearted, for a split mind and heart do not  think clearly.
C:27.10 only exist in relationship to you only exist as relationship? You  think it is, and feel yourself further diminished and lacking in
C:27.12 you are not learning the truth. You do not understand because you  think in terms of singularity rather than in terms of unity. This is
C:27.16 Will to be done. You fear being a miracle worker because you do not  think that you will ever know what is called for.
C:27.18 see it here, the power of details and the information of which you  think when desiring or fearing a fate of prophecy. The power we speak
C:28.3 testimony validates the proof of inner and collective knowing. You  think shared beliefs amass, like a congregation around a pulpit, and
C:28.7 You would  think of this as the time of work being done. This it is, but without
C:28.9 to know pointless to you as well as to those you would convince? You  think that when you are enlightened enough to know, you are also
C:28.9 enough to know what to do with what you know. While you continue to  think of a separation in terms of doing and of knowing, it is obvious
C:29.2 choice, a course that will lead you to a subservient stature. Others  think of it in terms of charity, and continue to see a difference
C:29.11 Many of you  think of life itself as toil. There is much you need to do just to
C:29.11 ideas of service. You have no time for more than you do now, and you  think of service, if you think of it at all, as something to be fit
C:29.11 no time for more than you do now, and you think of service, if you  think of it at all, as something to be fit in here or there where it
C:30.4 is being present. Being present has nothing to do with time as you  think of it. You think of this instruction to be present as an
C:30.4 Being present has nothing to do with time as you think of it. You  think of this instruction to be present as an instruction that
C:30.4 to be present as an instruction that relates to time. You  think of present time, past time, future time. We have spoken of
C:30.5 achieved. For universal consciousness is knowing Self, while you  think it is knowing all. Knowing Self is knowing all, but this you do
C:30.11 information, some guarantee, some proof or validation. You might  think if you are “right” you will be successful, if you are
C:30.13 The source of love and its location is your own heart.  Think now of the created form, the body. When the heart stops
C:31.10 is the reason for man’s quest for God throughout all time. Man may  think he looks to God for answers, for release from pain, for reward,
C:31.15 All that you would keep private and unshared is, in essence, who you  think you are. I say who you think you are because it is important to
C:31.15 and unshared is, in essence, who you think you are. I say who you  think you are because it is important to distinguish who you think
C:31.15 who you think you are because it is important to distinguish who you  think you are from who you truly are. On the one hand, you think that
C:31.15 who you think you are from who you truly are. On the one hand, you  think that you are your past, your shame, your guilt; on the other
C:31.18 worrying about honesty and sharing being about some need to confess,  think a moment about why you are worried. The idea of confessing is
C:31.18 who you are being all tied up with sin and a need for forgiveness,  think of this simply as a need to share. This would seem antithetical
C:31.18 said—that what you keep you lose, and what you share you gain. You  think of confessing as a way of letting go and getting rid of that
C:31.22 Sharing is thus not about who you  think you are, but about who you truly are, and yet it is the way to
C:31.29 their Selves in you. If you are constantly reflecting back what you  think your brothers and sisters want to see, they can learn nothing
C:31.29 to see, they can learn nothing from you. If your truth about who you  think you are changes day-to-day, you are reflecting the very variety
C:31.30 You do not  think you are looking for yourself in others, but think instead that
C:31.30 You do not think you are looking for yourself in others, but  think instead that you are looking for something or someone other
C:32.4 Love, and your relationship with Love has returned you to your Self.  Think not. This Course requires no thought and no effort. There is no

T1:2.1 The closing pages of A Course of Love instructed you to  think no more. A break in time was needed for you to disengage the
T1:2.7 such focused thoughts and thus further entrenched the ego-mind. To  think that you could learn the truth of who you are through these
T1:3.6 to call upon. For calling upon miracles is an act of faith. You  think the quest for miracles is a quest for proof that demonstrates a
T1:3.9 Observe yourself as you  think through this question. Can you remove all fear from it? Why
T1:3.9 at doing, you want to choose the “right” miracle. Some of you may  think through just what kind of miracle would be most convincing to
T1:3.9 you see this exercise as what it is, an attempt to convince you to  think otherwise about yourself. If you ask for a cure for a disease,
T1:3.11 miracles is, the fear of not being able to perform is greater. You  think of this as a test and one you can pass or fail. And what’s
T1:4.10  Think of all you now feel responsible for and this lesson will become
T1:4.14 Do you  think the Creator is responsible for what was created? To think of
T1:4.14 Do you think the Creator is responsible for what was created? To  think of the Creator in this way is to think of the Creator with the
T1:4.14 for what was created? To think of the Creator in this way is to  think of the Creator with the upside-down thinking of the ego-mind.
T1:4.19 interpretation of events and feelings has given them their meaning—  think again. Their meaning exists already and is not up to you to
T1:4.19 and the feelings they have aroused have defined who you are,  think again. Be willing to apply the art of thought rather than the
T1:5.10 The body, and thus the “you” whom you  think you are, would not experience anything without the presence of
T1:8.17 We have talked thus far of union of heart and mind. Lest you  think that this union is not all-encompassing, we will reflect a
T1:9.3 an elevation beyond form, it must begin in the reality where you  think you are. In other words, it must begin with form. You cannot
T1:9.15 might be to puff oneself up with pride, bolster one’s position,  think one’s way through, argue, manipulate, or chastise another so
T1:10.2 back. You will experience this loss of extremes as a lack. You will  think something is wrong. You will feel this particularly when others
T1:10.2 that a wave of desire to be fully human will wash over you. You will  think that this human who has caught your attention is fully engaged
T1:10.2 is fully engaged and fully experiencing the moment. You will  think this is what you want. And I say again that it will not matter
T1:10.3 or the most all-encompassing joy, you will feel inhuman. You will  think that this cannot be where you are meant to be, what you are
T1:10.9 grief that also became an experience of profound learning. You will  think that you would not be who you are now without experiences such
T1:10.9 be who you are now without experiences such as this one. You will  think that I cannot possibly be asking you to give up these types of
T2:1.3 physical treasure except to say that the feelings that cause one to  think that any physical thing is capable of being a treasure or being
T2:1.4 internal treasures you had once hoped to have become abilities. You  think this willingness to accept who you are now is what this Course
T2:1.8 and the chaos that seems to reign there. You must realize that you  think in terms of place because you think in terms of form. Thus even
T2:1.8 there. You must realize that you think in terms of place because you  think in terms of form. Thus even I have often used the idea of place
T2:1.8 idea of place as a teaching aid. But you are ready now to begin to  think without the need for form.
T2:1.13 Ego desires cause one to  think of a grand piano. Thoughts joined in unity hear music. Ego

T2:2.9 You  think that what prevents you from being who you are is far broader
T2:2.9 simple idea of hearing and following a calling would indicate. You  think what prevents you from being who you are is far broader than a
T2:3.3 Your mind exists in unity. Your heart exists where you  think you are, thus providing the means for union between where you
T2:3.3 think you are, thus providing the means for union between where you  think you are and where your being actually resides. Remember always
T2:4.2 completely contrary to the meaning of creation. Yet you continue to  think that you stand apart from it and affect it not. This is
T2:4.3 the ego-mind that has provided you with an identity that you but  think you are. A Course of Love then followed in order to reveal to
T2:4.3 you truly are. While you continue to act within the world as who you  think you are rather than as who you are, you have not integrated
T2:4.4 acted out of a set of conditions that corresponded to who you  think you are rather than who you truly are.
T2:4.5 You will almost literally continue to “bump in” to who you  think you are as you complete the process of unlearning. It might be
T2:4.5 world as who you truly are is like swimming, bumping in to who you  think you are could be likened to trying to move within water as you
T2:4.6 in learning to recognize when you are acting upon notions of who you  think you are rather than on who you truly are, is the appearance of
T2:4.11 callings, matters not at this juncture. What matters is that you  think it does. You think it matters because you compare and judge
T2:4.11 not at this juncture. What matters is that you think it does. You  think it matters because you compare and judge rather than accept.
T2:4.19 of it grows, it is going to raise it to a level you will come to  think of as an ability. As your old way of responding to life causes
T2:5.4 These calls you may  think of as signs. Like literal signposts along a roadway, they alert
T2:6.2 end of time as you know it is close at hand. If you can begin now to  think without the barriers of time you but place upon your thinking,
T2:6.5 What does this mean in regards to time? You might  think of being accomplished as all of your work being done. If there
T2:6.10 As I have already said that your heart must exist where you  think you are, you can begin to see that this change in thinking will
T2:9.1 felt from another the desire to help or to meet your needs. Do not  think that this desire is not present in all relationships. It is
T2:9.4 a job or loved one or even of the promise of some service. When you  think in such a way you believe in loss and gain rather than in the
T2:9.7 only. Thinking beings share needs because of the way in which they  think. That some seem to have more needs than others is a fallacy of
T2:9.11 as it is of special relationships and what you might more readily  think of as treasure, such as a successful career or inspired
T2:9.16 is complete. Once this trust is realized you will no longer  think in terms of needs at all. Once you are no longer concerned with
T2:9.17 Holding on to what you  think will meet your needs is like holding your breath. Your breath
T2:9.17 and take of breathing that you live. Each time you are tempted to  think that your needs can only be met in special ways by special
T2:9.17 special relationships, remember this example of holding your breath.  Think in such a way no longer than you can comfortably hold your
T2:9.18 which trust can grow. Once this trust is realized you will no longer  think of trust just as you will no longer think of needs.
T2:9.18 you will no longer think of trust just as you will no longer  think of needs.
T2:9.19 Ceasing to  think in these terms will soon be seen as a valuable ability and a
T2:10.3 I ask you to  think for a moment of a time when you attempted to recall a specific
T2:10.4 You might  think of unity as you have so often thought of your brain, but rather
T2:10.4 of your brain, but rather than thinking of it in the singular,  think of it as a storehouse or giant brain in which all that has ever
T2:10.8 to lie beyond your ability lies in the Christ in you. You might  think of the ego as the hand that swats away this knowing.
T2:10.15 for you to believe that the Christ in you is in need of learning.  Think a moment of why this should be so. Is there ever a moment in
T2:10.17 What difference does it make to your concepts of learning when you  think of life as your coursework? Would you be any more willing to
T2:10.18 What are your plans and dreams but chosen lessons? While you do not  think of them as such you do not think of life as your learning
T2:10.18 chosen lessons? While you do not think of them as such you do not  think of life as your learning ground. You still think of lessons as
T2:10.18 as such you do not think of life as your learning ground. You still  think of lessons as being about specific subject matter. When life
T2:11.10 Realize that when you  think that this total reversal of thought concerning yourself and
T2:11.16 the world will not change and you will not know who you are. You may  think you know, and you may waste much time in perceived battles,
T2:12.5 other than your own thinking that is in need of correction you  think falsely. Right-thinking is the realm of miracles.
T2:13.4 of false thinking because I lived among you as a thinking being.  Think not that I was different than you and you will realize that we
T3:2.1 to serve to have anything exist only as a representation? We might  think of this in terms of original purpose and the original purpose
T3:2.1 are not expressions that remain contained to who you are or who you  think yourself to be. They are not expressions of the self alone.
T3:2.4 time was spent within this Course, discussing the choice you but  think you made, this discussion was necessary only in the same terms
T3:2.11 you, but you who abandoned your Self and God. Give up your desire to  think that if you did such a thing there was a reason for you to have
T3:3.8 You cannot  think your way to the new life that calls to you. You can only get
T3:3.9 this Course, your self is still seen as a stumbling block. You might  think that were you able to live in some ideal community, away from
T3:3.9 simply declare yourself unsuitable for further learning. Whether you  think such thoughts consciously or not, there is a part of you that
T3:6.1 from God, some from life, some from fate. No matter who it is you  think is in charge of rewarding you, the attitude that causes you to
T3:8.4 of bitterness as something that you are attached to, I want you to  think of attachments for a time and see how bitterness does indeed
T3:8.6 your ancestors for the history, both ancient and recent, that you  think you would have given anything to change? Do you look upon the
T3:9.3 and finding a completely new reality beyond its walls. You might  think, at first, that you are in a place so foreign that you must
T3:10.13  Think of this, for a moment as you would a learned language. If you
T3:10.13 But eventually, if this situation went on for many years, you might  think you had forgotten your ability to understand English.
T3:10.14 of the ego into the thought system of the Christ-Self that you but  think you have forgotten. As you dwell in the House of Truth, if you
T3:11.12 no different than I am, then you must see that you cannot begin to  think of yourself as different than your brothers and sisters. All
T3:11.12 the House of Truth because it is where your brothers and sisters  think they are. The house of illusion is not a hell to which anyone
T3:13.7 way must be birthed and lived by. While most of you will immediately  think of your survival needs, this is far from the only area in which
T3:14.2 If you have felt a lack of respect you may feel that what others  think of you matters not and enjoy a heightened self-concept. While
T3:14.5 What this means to the learning stage you are at now is that you but  think you are discontent with much of your life. As you begin to
T3:14.11 up bitterness in order to usher in a world of peace, would you not  think this a selfish act?
T3:14.12 Atonement, or correction, is not of you but of God. You might  think of this in terms of nature and look upon nature’s ability to
T3:16.10 or to desires that you may feel have gone unfulfilled. While you may  think that this means you are being asked to do without, this is not
T3:17.6 such as Holy Spirit, are but word symbols that represent what is. So  think now of whatever stories you know of the Holy Spirit, stories
T3:19.8 and effect are not influenced by what comes of fear. You may still  think that suffering and “bad” behavior have had great effects but
T3:19.14 You would  think that this disparity would be divisive and extremely
T3:19.14 the house of illusion will still be able to deny what they see. Just  think of how many saints and miracles you have heard of in the past
T3:20.6  Think about a situation in which you have observed the illness or
T3:20.6 Judgment is never far from these observations. Suffering, you would  think, could not be seen as anything but “bad.” You cannot feel
T3:20.7 such circumstances. You cannot imagine not offering sympathy. You  think it naïve to believe in positive outcomes. You listen to
T3:20.7 that God spare this one from a future seemingly already written, and  think that is more realistic and even helpful than living by the laws
T3:20.8 call for the same response, the response of love to love. Why  think you it is loving to believe in suffering? Do you not begin to
T3:20.11 who you are and because you realize you can no longer be, live, or  think as other than who you are in truth. This is how thorough your
T3:21.8 This certainty is antithetical to you. You  think that to believe in one truth is to deny other truths. There is
T3:21.11 simply because you could not exist without an identity. You might  think of this as being certain of facts and information, for these
T3:21.13 behaviors that fall within the parameters of your belief system. You  think of these things as part of what make up the totality of who you
T3:21.24 of this Course than you to be the savior only you can be. Do not  think that only those who are more bold than you or who speak more
T3:22.1 to a leadership role, you know that you are called to something and  think that you as yet know not what that something is. You think that
T3:22.1 and think that you as yet know not what that something is. You  think that to be asked to simply “live” by the truth could not
T4:2.9 upon hearing words such as the end of time or the fullness of time,  think of the predictions of the biblical end of time. I speak of this
T4:2.10 these false ideas that would keep you from this awareness. If you  think you can observe in judgment you do not understand the
T4:2.19 as holy as your Self. This holiness need only be observed. When you  think in terms of evangelizing or convincing, you think in terms of
T4:2.19 observed. When you think in terms of evangelizing or convincing, you  think in terms of future outcome rather than in terms of what already
T4:2.23  Think of this denial now, for it is still evident in the pattern of
T4:2.29 yet recognize it when you experience it. This is why you can still  think of observance of what is as a game of make believe and feel
T4:4.2 the pattern that has been taken to extremes within your world. You  think of birth as creation and death as rest. You do not realize that
T4:4.10 prolonged without a substantial change in the nature of life. To  think of living on and on as you have lived your life thus far would
T4:4.16 exist now. Remember, the heart must abide in the reality where you  think you are. Only through your mind’s acceptance of your new
T4:5.2 exist with you, form the orchestra and chorus of creation. You might  think of your time here as that of being apprentice musicians. You
T4:5.4 to live, this one Energy had to enter your form and exist where you  think you are. This is the Energy of Love, the Energy of Creation,
T4:5.5 but an extension of this energy, a representation of it. You might  think of this as a small spark of the energy that has created a
T4:5.9 is as impossible as it would be for the finger to do so. And yet you  think that this is possible and that this is the meaning of free
T4:5.11 human form. When you die, you do not die to who you are or who you  think you are. You do not die to choice. At the time of death you are
T4:5.12 only after your death that you chose direct revelation by God.  Think about this now and you will see that it is true. You hoped to
T4:7.5 just like your heart, exists in the state or reality in which you  think you are. The only thing that has created an unreal reality for
T4:8.14 one whose name and identity is synonymous with creation? You like to  think that God knows everything, and God surely knows everything that
T4:8.16 You  think of a state of knowing as a state of there being nothing you do
T4:10.2 rather than studying, and yet you will quickly see that you merely  think of experience as learning through a different means than
T4:12.10 concerns and questions, you will be prone to continue to  think of yourself as a learning being. While these dialogues continue
T4:12.10 to address these same questions and concerns, you will be prone to  think of them as teaching dialogues and to consider yourself still a
T4:12.18  Think and speak no more of the suffering of the past. Spread the
T4:12.19 try to remember to turn to the new rather than the old each time you  think you are experiencing uncertainty or lack.
T4:12.23 it. It cannot be grasped by the singular consciousness. You could  think of this as something which, were it integrated into the thought
D:1.7 prepare and plan. It does not know how to do otherwise. You do not  think you know how to do otherwise.
D:1.19 As you begin this Dialogue, questions naturally arise. You might  think that for the receiver, or transcriber, of this Dialogue, this
D:1.20 of the transcriber of these words were the way for everyone, and  think not that to hear “directly” from the Source is different than
D:2.18 is based on the workings of a split mind and a split mind does not  think clearly.
D:3.17 with me and all that was created and you cannot do so while you  think of me as teacher and yourself as student. While you think of
D:3.17 while you think of me as teacher and yourself as student. While you  think of yourself as a learning being you will still be looking to
D:4.5 and any arguments you would cite about the heinous crimes of some.  Think instead of prison simply becoming a way of life for those who
D:4.12 not be beyond your belief. Despite the differences in what you see,  think, and feel, there is but one external divine pattern that
D:4.16 divine pattern. The ego is one such system. It may seem peculiar to  think of the ego as a system, and we have heretofore referred to both
D:5.6 was created in order to show—to teach—that joining is the way.  Think of the word desire and its association with sex. To desire
D:5.8 the becoming it would need to take on the properties of the truth.  Think of the ego again as an example here. The ego but seemed to be
D:5.13 and this is not needed now. The desire for such is a desire to  think through once again the meaning of everything and to have a tool
D:5.18 Yet what you  think imprisons you is also what I am addressing here. Release
D:5.20 what was once a prison may no longer be a prison! If you continue to  think of your body as a prison, if you continue to think of your
D:5.20 you continue to think of your body as a prison, if you continue to  think of your environment, your mind, and time as a prison, how can
D:6.6 and what exists as inanimate or non-living form. While you might  think this is an easily drawn distinction—and it is—it is not
D:6.8 of economics and science—the systems—in short, of what you  think governs you.
D:6.14 with you. So let us begin with a suspension of belief in what you  think you know about the body, in what science would tell you about
D:6.16 about the time of discovery that is before you. Calling what you  think you know into question is not a call to return to uncertainty,
D:6.17 If you  think of the “old” as a world in which an attitude of “if this, then
D:6.19 When a person who has exhibited healthy habits get sick, you  think it is unfair. When a person who has exhibited unhealthy habits
D:6.19 When a person who has exhibited unhealthy habits gets sick, you  think, even if you would not say, that they “did it to themselves” or
D:7.16 Your envisioning too is bound to time and that is why so many of you  think of envisioning as envisioning the future. Envisioning is less
D:7.28 far from the building in which you dwell. What I ask you to do is to  think of these areas as the territory of your body, and to remember
D:8.2 of not being bound by this constraint. In all of your life, you can  think of no ability you have not achieved through learning. And yet
D:8.4 You might  think of this ability that existed prior to the time of learning as
D:8.7 of the new will naturally include much that goes beyond what you now  think of as your natural talents or abilities, the place or Source of
D:8.9 means of thinking. What has been learned will become an ability to  think wholeheartedly, or with mind and heart in union, and then that
D:9.2 of what imprisons you, only to have it later suggested that what you  think imprisons you may not be what imprisons you at all. What you
D:9.2 think imprisons you may not be what imprisons you at all. What you  think is what imprisons you.
D:9.3 You continue to  think that your desire to know who you are calls you to think about
D:9.3 continue to think that your desire to know who you are calls you to  think about who you are and in that thinking to come up with a
D:9.12 and received. They are surprising and pleasing in nature. You may  think that they are the result of learning, of thoughts you have
D:9.12 of thoughts you have contemplated and struggled with. You may  think that all of your previous learning and thinking merely resulted
D:10.3 You  think that the use you put these givens to, what you do with them,
D:10.3 unique and individual accomplishment. Such it is. But when you also  think that it is your hard work and diligence, your effort and
D:10.3 and struggle, that bring the expression of these givens forward, you  think in error and limit your expression in much the same ways that
D:10.4 is not of union but of the individual self. You may feel that to  think of this in any other way will leave you with no individual,
D:11.2 example can you not see the fallacy inherent in all the others? To  think of these Dialogues in this way, dear brothers and sisters, is
D:11.2 Dialogues in this way, dear brothers and sisters, is insane. To  think of the thought or idea of God by which you were created as the
D:11.2 of information from whom another is capable of taking notes? You  think it is only the content of your thoughts that differentiate you
D:11.2 content of your thoughts that differentiate you from others. Do you  think the same is true of you and me? It is that you think that
D:11.2 others. Do you think the same is true of you and me? It is that you  think that differentiates you from me, not our content, which is one
D:11.3 You might imagine that the way you  think is so different from the way I think that they are
D:11.3 might imagine that the way you think is so different from the way I  think that they are incomparable. But thinking is not an accurate
D:11.6 Let me ask you a question. Do you  think desire will still be with you when you have achieved what you
D:11.13 with the vision of unity you become as I was during life. You do not  think your way through life, but instead draw your knowing forth from
D:12.4 what occurs here. You have “entered into” this dialogue. While you  think these words come to you through the written form of this book,
D:12.11 I am not saying that your ego is still at work because you still  think in the same way as before. I am about to make the two main
D:12.11 of the separated self and does not serve you. The way in which you  think may seem vastly improved since the ego ruled or may seem only
D:12.17 I have said about your way of thinking being insane is true. You  think it is perfectly sane to go through life without knowing
D:13.9 come to the knowing of the state of unity alone. Why then would you  think that you could come to full expression of what you have come to
D:16.9 between the way that is and what is lies in choice. While you  think that you can choose to stand apart from God, apart from Love,
D:16.9 to be who you are, without allowing for self-expression. You might  think that you can be simply because you exist and that as long as
D:16.9 because you are being something. You are alive. You have form. You  think and feel. You have even been told that you would cease to be
D:16.9 you would cease to be without the existence of spirit, and so, you  think, you must at least be. You are, after all, called a human being.
D:17.14 asked of you earlier, for they are even more pertinent now. Do you  think desire will still be with you when you have achieved what you
D:Day1.11 Many people now are discovering the power of healing. Some  think this power comes from one source and some from another. You may
D:Day1.11 this power comes from one source and some from another. You may  think that, as long as the power is called forth, it matters not the
D:Day1.11 called forth, it matters not the name by which it is called. You may  think that it all comes from the same source, regardless of what the
D:Day1.11 to your needs of healing, or you may make many choices. You may  think these choices matter not, but only the power of the healer.
D:Day3.9 for your life will assist you in living abundantly will cause you to  think, “I doubt it.” Or, “I’ll believe it when I see it.” You might
D:Day3.9 think, “I doubt it.” Or, “I’ll believe it when I see it.” You might  think spirituality can assist you in living a more simple life and
D:Day3.11 money or abundance is not a “given” for all, but only for a few, you  think of it much like the “given” of natural gifts or talents, the
D:Day3.14 To  think in such terms, and then to see such thoughts as even capable of
D:Day3.14 thoughts as even capable of having spiritual value, is something you  think of as insane. There seems no remedy, and so you would rather
D:Day3.14 knowing may even say to yourself as you read them that you no longer  think in such a way, they are there in the learned pattern and you
D:Day3.20 is a power that is denied, rarely acknowledged, seldom spoken of.  Think you not that the shame that comes from heartaches or mistaken
D:Day3.21 you would consider a shaming act. You would fear that they might  think you want something from them and you would suffer
D:Day3.22 upon having the “means” to pursue it, and few of you truly  think that money would not solve most of your problems. Even those of
D:Day3.22 most of your problems. Even those of you on this spiritual path  think money is among the greatest limits to what you can accomplish,
D:Day3.29 You  think abundance is the most difficult thing to demonstrate, when it
D:Day3.29 difficult thing to demonstrate, when it is actually the easiest. You  think you could learn what is for you the most difficult type of
D:Day3.29 learn how to make money, or in other words, to have abundance. You  think you could more easily find love than money, even those of you
D:Day3.30 unworried about your health until the slightest pain makes you  think of cancer. In this same way, there are not any of you, those
D:Day3.32 And so you might  think, here, of what has brought you joy. A home, a garden, a musical
D:Day3.33 You might  think here too that money made from what you love to do has a
D:Day3.33 to do has a different quality than money earned from toil. You might  think that money earned from what you love to do is the answer, just
D:Day3.33 earned from what you love to do is the answer, just as you might  think that money spent on the more lasting pleasures such as the
D:Day3.39 you had known before. We spoke of this as thoughts you did not  think. We spoke of these thoughts you did not think coming with
D:Day3.39 thoughts you did not think. We spoke of these thoughts you did not  think coming with authority and certainty, a certainty you had
D:Day3.40 but since for most of you it has arisen as thoughts you did not  think, if you were to make an association in regards to entry, you
D:Day3.40 of the mind and heart joined in unity. It would be more true to  think of this joining as creating a portal of access, a new source of
D:Day3.54 and receive it, express it and share it. And yet you continue to  think that if you had money or abundance, you would accept and
D:Day3.57 is an active function. It is something given you to do. You  think it is difficult, but it is only difficult until it becomes easy.
D:Day3.58 While you  think of acceptance as just another word, another concept, another
D:Day4.6 breathing, yet neither do you, under normal circumstances, have to  think about breathing. You might begin to think of all the “givens”
D:Day4.6 circumstances, have to think about breathing. You might begin to  think of all the “givens” of unity as those things that require no
D:Day4.7 time of language that constitutes your ideas about what it means to  think. In evolutionary terms this was true as well. Despite the
D:Day4.7 has not left any of you. You all begin life without the ability to  think in the terms you now associate almost exclusively with
D:Day4.9 identify the world in the same way—the way that has been taught—  think that you have succeeded in learning, is the cause of the
D:Day4.15 the mind. We have spoken of thoughts that arise that you didn’t  think. We have spoken of talents that were not learned. We have
D:Day4.29 like breathing, something that is natural to you until you begin to  think about it. Realize how unnatural your breathing becomes when it
D:Day4.31 In practical terms, you might  think of this as a disengagement from the details. Thinking is about
D:Day4.35 You might  think of the mountain top as symbolic of a place close to God. If God
D:Day4.35 touch God, stretch just a little more and reach heaven. You thus may  think of this time on the mountain as a time of getting in touch with
D:Day4.35 with your own access to God, your own access to heaven. You might  think that if you stretch your idea of reality just a little bit
D:Day4.42 Smile with me now, as you  think of yourself in this elevated place. You are still the self of
D:Day4.50 odd timing as you have just been asked to accept your anger. Just  think. Anger was discussed rather casually alongside accepting me,
D:Day4.50 to accept. Accept all. You do not have to hesitate here because you  think you are still angry, or think you are still depressed. When you
D:Day4.50 not have to hesitate here because you think you are still angry, or  think you are still depressed. When you hesitate you have not
D:Day4.52 that fear is all that needs to be left behind. You will still  think you have more to learn because you are angry, depressed, in a
D:Day4.54 You but  think that you can wholeheartedly desire to move forward with love
D:Day4.55  Think a moment of the story of the prodigal son. All that the
D:Day4.55 son was asked to do was to accept his own homecoming. Do you  think he would have considered himself perfect as he approached his
D:Day4.57 you have reached some ideal of enlightenment or what you might  think of as perfection. If this were asked of you, how many of you
D:Day5.13 of giving and receiving as one within your own heart. You might  think of access in the same way—as enabling you to realize that you
D:Day5.25 the example of how your breathing becomes unnatural when you  think about it, and contrast this with the increase in awareness of
D:Day5.26 is entering you, and it does not imply entry without exit. When you  think of breathing, you may think of inhaling as taking in air, and
D:Day5.26 not imply entry without exit. When you think of breathing, you may  think of inhaling as taking in air, and of air as something that is
D:Day5.26 that is not “of” you. But the air you breathe is “of” you. You may  think of the air you exhale as being more “of” you, but there is no
D:Day6.22 remove yourself from life! If this were required it would be done!  Think not that I cannot arrange the ideal environment for our
D:Day6.23  Think a moment about a new job or some other endeavor in which you
D:Day6.25 as well as conversationalists, is not an erroneous way to  think of our relationship. We are both friends and co-workers.
D:Day6.30 you find yourself. There is no time to wait while you learn, or  think you learn, the qualities that will allow this. This is the
D:Day6.31 no call to be discouraged. This is not delay, but what you might  think of as trial by fire. Be encouraged rather than discouraged that
D:Day8.3 This is not about acceptance of what you do not like. Do you really  think you are being called to accept “normal life?” Called to accept

T1:1.8 You are a  thinking being. This cannot be denied nor should it be. Thus a Course
T1:2.1 needed for you to disengage the ego-mind that produced the type of  thinking that needs to come to an end. This ending is but a beginning
T1:2.6 The so-called  thinking of the ego-mind was so tyrannical that its use throughout
T1:2.6 that it left you unable to respond purely to anything. The so-called  thinking of the ego-mind could be likened to chitchat, background
T1:2.12 is but relationship between Creator and Created. The new means of  thinking is referred to here as the “art” of thought in order to call
T1:3.2 is the same as seeing how different the art of thought is from the  thinking of the ego-mind! The art of thought is diametrically opposed
T1:3.2 of the ego-mind! The art of thought is diametrically opposed to the  thinking of the ego-mind.
T1:3.26 of these fears, bringing to them the art of thought rather than the  thinking of the ego-mind.
T1:4.2 this is but an indication that you are still in the habit of  thinking you learned under the instruction of the ego-mind. This
T1:4.3 thought has led you to see. Miracles are, in other words, a way of  thinking, the new way that we are going to learn together. They are
T1:4.12 than to be responsible. How can you be free to respond when your  thinking remains tied to responsibility?
T1:4.14 Creator in this way is to think of the Creator with the upside-down  thinking of the ego-mind. Is this not the kind of thinking that has
T1:4.14 the upside-down thinking of the ego-mind. Is this not the kind of  thinking that has caused you to blame God for what you have labeled
T1:4.19 think again. Be willing to apply the art of thought rather than the  thinking of the ego-mind. Interpretation but gives you opinions about

T1:8.6 How does this relate to your  thinking? You have been reborn as god-man, as God and man united. The
T2:1.9 to develop into abilities, are given a structure and form in your  thinking of them. A desire to paint, in your thoughts becomes a
T2:1.10  Thinking without form is a harbinger of unity. Form is a product of
T2:1.12 Thoughts joined in unity. Thoughts joined in unity can be likened to  thinking without thought. They can be likened to imagination. They
T2:1.13 painting. Thoughts joined in unity see beauty. You are used to  thinking that if you do not have a tangible goal, such as that of
T2:1.14 This is a first step in the change in  thinking that needs to occur. It is an elementary step and one easily
T2:1.14 easily accomplished with but a bit of willingness. This change in  thinking in regards to treasures you do recognize will pave the way
T2:3.6 then your idea of the Christ is still based on an old way of  thinking, as are your ideas of learning.
T2:4.2 you stand apart from it and affect it not. This is consistent to the  thinking that would tell you that you are at the mercy of fate. Fate
T2:4.3 and A Course of Love work hand-in-hand because the change of  thinking taught within A Course in Miracles was a change of thinking
T2:4.3 of thinking taught within A Course in Miracles was a change of  thinking about yourself. It attempted to dislodge the ego-mind that
T2:4.12 not with who you are. They do not recognize the difference between  thinking and knowing.
T2:4.19 While this adjustment of your  thinking may not seem to be the miracle that it truly is, as your

T2:6.2 govern your days and years and that you thus allow to govern your  thinking. If time is but a measure of learning, and if your learning
T2:6.2 now to think without the barriers of time you but place upon your  thinking, you will advance this process and more quickly bring about
T2:6.10 where you think you are, you can begin to see that this change in  thinking will release your heart, returning it to its natural realm.
T2:9.7 the same as feeling that one has a need. Needs are the domain of the  thinking being only. Thinking beings share needs because of the way
T2:9.7 one has a need. Needs are the domain of the thinking being only.  Thinking beings share needs because of the way in which they think.

T2:9.15 as valuable as the others mentioned here, this adjustment in your  thinking may seem difficult to accept. How does the identification of
T2:9.19 and a timesaving measure of great magnitude. As these old ways of  thinking leave you, you will be left as who you are in truth.
T2:10.2  Thinking that needs can be met only in certain ways is akin to
T2:10.4 of unity as you have so often thought of your brain, but rather than  thinking of it in the singular, think of it as a storehouse or giant
T2:11.15 or but a form of the insanity that is prevalent still, even in your  thinking. You do not realize that this source of conflict is the
T2:11.15 Does this not but reveal to you a fraction of the power of your  thinking and its ability to shape the world you see?
T2:11.17 it with new learning. While you have learned much here, you may be  thinking that your ego is still very much with you, and wondering, if
T2:12.1 Miracles are thoughts and I am the corrector of false  thinking. You have been made ready for this correction and your
T2:12.5 same thing. While you believe there is anything other than your own  thinking that is in need of correction you think falsely.
T2:13.4 I am the corrector of false  thinking because I lived among you as a thinking being. Think not

T3:9.5 and will want to return to add your own to those going on inside,  thinking that with the force of one more, maybe the walls will
T3:18.10 link observance and ideas. Ideas form in the mind. You are used to  thinking that what you observe forms outside of your mind. This is
T3:18.10 that what you observe forms outside of your mind. This is the  thinking of the ego-thought system. The thought system of the truth
T3:20.10 good or mentally healthy, to exercises in visualization or positive  thinking. I am calling you to live by the truth and to never deny it.
T3:21.24 and no followers are needed. This is quite obviously an old way of  thinking. While no one is called to evangelize, all are called
T4:1.6 this generation believe they are a chosen generation. Neither way of  thinking is wrong. All are chosen.
T4:1.25 before they allow themselves to directly experience the truth,  thinking still that the experience of the truth will exclude much
T4:2.10 consistent with the idea of unity. If you proceed into this new time  thinking that this new time will separate you from others, or cause
T4:2.19 future outcome rather than in terms of what already is. This type of  thinking will not serve the new or allow you full awareness of the
T4:2.23 of this denial now, for it is still evident in the pattern of your  thinking. We have spoken of this within the text of A Course of Love
T4:4.16 of form in order to be reborn as a true Self. This is an old way of  thinking. Have we not worked throughout this Course to return your
D:1.20 from the Source is different than what you do here. This is  thinking with the mindset of separation rather than the mindset of
D:1.23 This is akin to  thinking of a god who exists outside or apart from yourself. If you
D:4.14 of as a divinely inspired system of thought. In such a way of  thinking, one would take the internal thought pattern, enhance it
D:5.11 but to accept revelation. You will not arrive at the truth through  thinking about what everything means. This is the old way that led to
D:6.19 habits. Again we could go into countless examples of this type of  thinking, but the examples matter not except to make you see that
D:6.21 of ideas of placing blame does, is take it one step away from the  thinking of the “if this, then that” thought system we are leaving
D:8.2 it seems too impossible, too “good” to be true. You are too used to  thinking of yourself as a learning being to truly experience the
D:8.9 accepts the new, the art of thought will become your new means of  thinking. What has been learned will become an ability to think
D:9.3 to know who you are calls you to think about who you are and in that  thinking to come up with a definition of who you are, a truth of who
D:9.10 Just as the “Art of Thought” led to abilities beyond the  thinking of the ego-mind, the beliefs of the “Treatise on Unity” were
D:9.12 struggled with. You may think that all of your previous learning and  thinking merely resulted eventually in a new idea being birthed, but
D:10.4 Now you might be  thinking, here, that while these givens come from the realm of unity,
D:11.3 is so different from the way I think that they are incomparable. But  thinking is not an accurate description of what I do, or of what
D:12.1 In the terms in which you are used to  thinking, terms that have put the body at the center of your universe
D:12.7 as thoughts. Keep in mind that she thus has thoughts she is not  thinking.
D:12.9 this a simpler subject to discuss by making a distinction between  thinking and thought. This distinction, while it will not be
D:12.10 of your “thinking,” often even resulting in a conclusion to your  thinking, a summary of the finer points, as what might come to you in
D:12.11  Thinking is more descriptive of the ego mind; thoughts are more
D:12.11 to make the two main points of this discussion: The first is that  thinking, with or without the ego, is a pattern of the separated self
D:12.11 the ego, that is still with you. The second point is that although  thinking does not serve you, you do have, right now, and have always
D:12.13 One of the primary ideas that will assist you in leaving patterns of  thinking behind is the idea that thought as we are describing it, the
D:12.16 reaction to this truth, or simple doubt that arose within your  thinking, but regardless of this fading of your certainty, you still
D:12.16 about yourself—is true. If another challenges you, or if your own  thinking challenges you, doubt is quick to arise simply because you
D:12.17 more aware than ever before that what I have said about your way of  thinking being insane is true. You think it is perfectly sane to go
D:14.6 of questions such as these is that they can circumvent the usual  thinking you would apply to these situations. They can circumvent the
D:15.16 You have been prepared for this by the realization that your  thinking mind will no longer be necessary as your access to unity, or
D:16.18 still sees in forms and symbols. This kind of image may leave you  thinking that you are “acting” as if you have changed, while even
D:17.15 It is because you have now turned to your heart, instead of to your  thinking, that you feel both fulfillment and desire. But my earlier
D:Day3.9 agitated, to go back and forth between the general and specific,  thinking of both your own lack in life and that of those whose lack
D:Day3.31 of you who would feel prepared to let it bring you joy would err in  thinking that it could. How many times has what you thought would
D:Day4.6 think of all the “givens” of unity as those things that require no  thinking.
D:Day4.7 Learning was not meant to be linked with  thinking. Again I’ll draw your attention to the learning of
D:Day4.7 to think in the terms you now associate almost exclusively with  thinking, the terms of having thoughts, or words, in your mind.
D:Day4.8 Even after the onset of language, children continue to learn without  thinking. Does this not sound odd, foreign to you? And yet this is
D:Day4.29 your breathing becomes when it becomes the focus of your thought.  Thinking about breathing imposes an unnatural constraint upon a
D:Day4.30  Thinking, in this time beyond learning, could be rightly seen as a
D:Day4.30 as a constraint you but try to impose on all that is natural. Your  thinking, since it is a product of learning, does nothing but attempt
D:Day4.30 of all that exists within you in the state of unity, is an end to  thinking as you know it.
D:Day4.31 terms, you might think of this as a disengagement from the details.  Thinking is about details. I am imparting to you the key to abundance
D:Day4.31 with the end of the time of learning. You, on the other hand, are  thinking, yearning, grasping for the details. You would like to know
D:Day4.37 This is a longing that carries with it the desire to go beyond  thinking, the desire to go beyond words, the desire to go beyond
D:Day4.51 before full acceptance of what is would be confusing. You who are  thinking that you have not moved through the stages to full
D:Day5.21 you seek. Imagine this wisdom not as being stopped by the layers of  thinking and feeling that we used the onion to illustrate, but as a
D:Day5.22 by layers of defenses. No longer will it meet the road-block of your  thinking, your effort, your attempts to figure out how to do it and
D:Day5.25 as well as you focus on your access to unity. Focus does not mean  thinking. Focus does not mean learning. Remember the example of how
D:Day6.14 desire not to have to focus on the details of daily life. You may be  thinking that the ease so often spoken of in our conversations would
D:Day6.25  Thinking of our relationship as that of colleagues as well as
D:Day8.7 Now you may have been  thinking—again, at least subconsciously—that your “real” Self has
D:Day8.29 Remove all  thinking that says that you can err in following your feelings. This
D:Day8.29 that says that you can err in following your feelings. This is the  thinking of the old thought system, not the new. This is thinking
D:Day8.29 This is the thinking of the old thought system, not the new. This is  thinking comprised of the time-delay of the time of learning—of a
D:Day10.29 And do you not, when  thinking of idolized spiritual leaders, see them as world leaders as
D:Day32.5 broader terms. You might think of God as you think of yourself. When  thinking of the ideas put forth here, you might think of God deciding
D:Day32.6 standing back, judging Himself on the goodness of what He created?  Thinking that He’d like to make adjustments here or there, perhaps,
D:Day32.6 this provide? Wouldn’t this suggest a situation similar to a parent  thinking he or she could know him- or herself through observation of

C:10.3 is wholeness. All things exist in wholeness, including the  thought system that you made to protect the illusion you hold so
C:10.3 system that you made to protect the illusion you hold so dear. Your  thought system is completely alien to the truth, but completely
C:10.3 cannot fail to learn, but neither can you learn of it in parts. The  thought system of truth is as wholly consistent as the thought system
C:10.3 in parts. The thought system of truth is as wholly consistent as the  thought system of illusion, and you cannot take what you will and

C:11.6 of the separated self and is based on separation. The other is the  thought system of creation and is based on union. Your faith in what
C:12.2 deceived to think that love may not be limited to what you have  thought it to be. You think it is typical of a spiritual text to tell
C:12.17 You have all seen the way a  thought that seems to arise out of nowhere can affect you. An idea,
C:16.25 through your life trying to comply with rules of God and man with  thought of some greater good in mind. If everyone did what he or she
C:17.16 your mind rather than the compassion of your heart is to only give  thought to forgiveness. This many of you will give, even to deciding
C:18.17 would be included in this Course of Love is that you dedicate all  thought to union. This now must be seen in two dimensions rather than
C:18.17 be seen in two dimensions rather than one. In addition to dedicating  thought to unity with the whole, you must dedicate yourself to
C:18.17 to unity with the whole, you must dedicate yourself to unifying  thought itself.
C:18.20 Unifying  thought is more than a matter of focus or single-mindedness, although
C:18.20 although these are both steps in the right direction. Unifying  thought is also a matter of integrating the thought or language of
C:18.20 direction. Unifying thought is also a matter of integrating the  thought or language of your heart with that which you more naturally

C:19.13 order to do this there is still one more layer to the unification of  thought, and this brings up another reason for our reliance on the

C:19.13 can be combined with thought in such a way as to actually transcend  thought as you know it. This transcendence is a function of
C:19.15 Philosophy applies  thought to mystery and that is why philosophy becomes such a muddle
C:19.16 To think without  thought or know without words are ideas quite foreign to you, and
C:19.16 even experiences beyond thoughts and words you will apply word and  thought to. Yet love has often brought you close to a “thought-less”

T1:1.8 leave your learning incomplete. Without this “Treatise on the Art of  Thought,” too many of you would become muddled in your feelings and

T1:2.8 you, and it does call for a change of thought so extensive that all  thought as you once knew it does need to cease.
T1:2.9 and again until the new way totally replaces the old and the art of  thought leaves behind forever the need for what the ego-mind once but
T1:2.12 The new means of thinking is referred to here as the “art” of  thought in order to call your wholehearted attention to the continual
T1:2.12 is but a dialogue to which you have not responded. The art of  thought will free you to respond.
T1:2.18 through your experience of it, an opportunity to apply the art of  thought.
T1:2.19 Thus, these are the basic rules of the art of  thought: First, to experience what is and to acknowledge what is,
T1:2.22 like unto the Creator may be used as a definition for the art of  thought.
T1:3.1 The first opportunities for the art of  thought to be applied relate to memory in terms of your experience
T1:3.2 experience of truth is the same as seeing how different the art of  thought is from the thinking of the ego-mind! The art of thought is
T1:3.2 the art of thought is from the thinking of the ego-mind! The art of  thought is diametrically opposed to the thinking of the ego-mind.
T1:3.4 of truth dispels illusion and thus the ego-mind. The art of  thought replaces the ego-mind with the wholehearted. The wholehearted
T1:3.9 not requested a bigger miracle. You will almost feel panic at the  thought of such a choice being put before you. If you will agree to
T1:3.14 now if your fear is mightier than your willingness. But hold this  thought within your mind. What is needed to convince you will be
T1:3.20 its accomplishment. Better not to mess with such things. Even the  thought of it leads you to ideas of magic and power that is not of
T1:3.26 Now we can address each of these fears, bringing to them the art of  thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind.
T1:4.1 you into the state of mind that is miracle-readiness. The art of  thought is the expression of that state. The art of thought is the
T1:4.1 The art of thought is the expression of that state. The art of  thought is the miracle.
T1:4.3 a definition of miracles. Both are the same. Prayer and the art of  thought are the same. This should serve to make it clear that the
T1:4.3 once again far more broad and generalizable than your old habit of  thought has led you to see. Miracles are, in other words, a way of
T1:4.4 How can the rules of  thought we have identified serve to bring about the miracle that you
T1:4.6 The second rule of the art of  thought is to acknowledge relationship, the call for a response, and
T1:4.7 This is an enormous shift in your habit of  thought as you become the center of the universe.
T1:4.8 creation, put the “you” of the ego or the body at the center of its  thought system and from this central position developed all of its
T1:4.10 to respond for them rather than responding to them. You thus have  thought it is your responsibility to care for the world outside of
T1:4.18 The art of  thought is being taught here in order to prevent just such a
T1:4.19 You who have  thought that your interpretation of events and feelings has given
T1:4.19 to you to determine. This is not your responsibility. You who have  thought that your interpretation of situations and the feelings they
T1:4.19 defined who you are, think again. Be willing to apply the art of  thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind. Interpretation but
T1:4.20 The joy you have  thought has come to you from an interpretation that is uniquely your
T1:4.20 the chance to leave you is for you to begin to practice the art of  thought and thus begin to learn the difference.
T1:4.21 already stated, the first opportunities for you to learn the art of  thought will be provided through what we have called the
T1:4.21 with these lessons so that you may apply to them the art of  thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind. The art of thought
T1:4.21 art of thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind. The art of  thought will reveal the truth to you. The thinking of the ego-mind
T1:4.23 Revelation is a proper description of the mode by which the art of  thought teaches and helps you learn. It is not through study, effort,
T1:4.26 all fear is doubt about your self. Now we must expand upon this  thought, for doubt about your Self is doubt about God. While God is
T1:5.2 must be looked at carefully now and with all the power of the art of  thought. One aspect of this fear has to do with the human experience,
T1:5.4 the all or the nothingness, the eternal or the void. While your  thought system here has been described often as insanity, this is the
T1:5.9 we have defined it many times within this Course, must exist in the  thought system that is real to you. The thought system of the
T1:5.9 Course, must exist in the thought system that is real to you. The  thought system of the ego-mind is what has been real to you and thus
T1:5.9 nothing else that will free who you are but freedom from the ego’s  thought system. That the ego’s thought system has kept you from this
T1:5.9 you are but freedom from the ego’s thought system. That the ego’s  thought system has kept you from this freedom is the seeming
T1:5.10 the only cause of your experience here. When released from the ego  thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you
T1:5.10 is the real you or center of your Self, being joined with the only  thought system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How
T1:5.10 Self, being joined with the only thought system that is real, the  thought system of the truth. How could a thought system based on
T1:5.10 system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How could a  thought system based on anything but the truth lead to anything but
T1:5.12 and finally convinced. You must experience the reality of the new  thought system or it will remain forever theoretical. You must let go
T1:5.12 You must let go of the foundation of fear on which the old  thought system was built in order to experience the new.
T1:5.13 The art of  thought invites the experience of the new thought system by being
T1:5.13 The art of thought invites the experience of the new  thought system by being willing to replace the old with the new.
T1:6.1 The  thought system of the ego-mind is a learned system and this is why it
T1:6.1 is a learned system and this is why it can be unlearned. The  thought system of the truth is always present as the truth is always
T1:6.1 unlearned. It will thus be revealed to you as soon as the learned  thought system ceases to block its realization.
T1:6.2 this revelation to take place? It will begin by learning the art of  thought as the act of prayer. We have spoken already of memory here,
T1:6.5 that can reasonably be called a way of life or likened to the art of  thought. Prayers such as these emanate from either heart or mind and
T1:6.8 are revisited under the all-encompassing umbrella of a new way of  thought? The different personalities become one, the different paths
T1:8.17 all-encompassing, we will reflect a moment here on how the art of  thought brings all you have seen as parts of the self, such as male
T1:9.1 The art of  thought is not possible without a return to the virgin or unaltered
T1:9.1 a return to the virgin or unaltered self. The practice of the art of  thought is what will complete the return begun through the coursework
T1:9.8 and one to receive. You have long waited to receive what you have  thought could come only from some other. Your churches are but
T1:10.14 the condition of the wholehearted, the prerequisite to the art of  thought, the description of heaven, the abode of Christ. Peace has
T2:1.10 form is a harbinger of unity. Form is a product of the separation.  Thought “forms” are the product of the separation. Unity is not a
T2:1.11 You are a creator but a creator who creates with  thought unlike to any thoughts you have had before. Your thoughts of
T2:1.12 unity. Thoughts joined in unity can be likened to thinking without  thought. They can be likened to imagination. They can be likened to
T2:3.1 Everything you have ever wanted to be is. Everything you have ever  thought or imagined is and is reflected in the world you see. The
T2:3.7 Creation is a continuous and on-going expansion of the same  thought of love that brought life into existence. The seeds of
T2:3.8 Christ is the continuous and on-going expansion of the same  thought of love that brought life into existence. Christ is your
T2:4.12 about the past and all those things that at one time or another you  thought would bring you fulfillment. This is about recognizing who
T2:4.12 have led you. All these notions are concerned with who you have  thought yourself to be, not with who you are. They do not recognize
T2:4.15 You must be beginning to see that your  thought processes, the very thought processes that tell you
T2:4.15 You must be beginning to see that your thought processes, the very  thought processes that tell you hour-by-hour and minute-by-minute how
T2:4.15 that you are still in need of unlearning, of undoing old patterns of  thought. This is atonement and it is continuous and ongoing until it
T2:6.7 You may have regarded these exercises as silly or you may have  thought of the lessons of physics and felt as if you understood these
T2:6.9 by perceiving a new world. You are changing from who you have  thought yourself to be to who you are.
T2:7.19 relationships. Does this mean that you are required to express every  thought and feeling that comes your way? No, but this does mean that
T2:9.2 assist you in bypassing your ego mind. Some practices more commonly  thought of as tools might be meditation, exercises of the body such
T2:9.15 Because you have not  thought previously of needs as tools every bit as valuable as the
T2:10.4 You might think of unity as you have so often  thought of your brain, but rather than thinking of it in the
T2:10.4 a storehouse or giant brain in which all that has ever been known or  thought is contained. The technology that has created super-computers
T2:11.10 Realize that when you think that this total reversal of  thought concerning yourself and your world will be difficult you are
T2:12.7 The power of  thought and the power of prayer, once aligned, call constantly upon
T2:13.6 as we return to the premise put forth in “A Treatise on the Art of  Thought:” that of the elevation of form.
T3:1.6 self, as represented by your body, while adhering to the ego’s  thought system, became an ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal self
T3:1.7 The ego’s  thought system has been replaced by the thought system of unity and
T3:1.7 The ego’s thought system has been replaced by the  thought system of unity and you are left, perhaps, feeling unsure of
T3:1.13 with the ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns of the ego’s  thought system remain to be undone. This is atonement. We work now to
T3:2.4 same terms that made it necessary to thoroughly discuss the ego’s  thought system. What you believe about yourself is part of the
T3:2.11 impossible for you to imagine this holiness with the concepts of the  thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This thought system
T3:2.11 concepts of the thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This  thought system has allowed only the acceptance of a reality within
T3:3.7 the changed beliefs we have worked together to integrate into your  thought system, are only a first step, a step toward holy
T3:3.7 step, a step toward holy relationship. These new beliefs of your new  thought system must be wholehearted. They cannot be beliefs that
T3:6.4 self, there has always been just enough room within the ego’s  thought system to keep within you the idea of a self the ego is not.
T3:7.1 beliefs in “A Treatise on Unity,” to speaking here of ideas. God’s  thought of you is an idea of absolute truth. Your existence derives
T3:7.1 The ego’s existence derived from your idea of a separated self, a  thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego’s thought system then
T3:7.1 a separated self, a thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego’s  thought system then formed beliefs that supported the initial idea of
T3:7.2 now of ideas or thoughts. If you believe that God created you with a  thought or idea, then you can begin to see the power of thought. If
T3:7.2 you with a thought or idea, then you can begin to see the power of  thought. If you can believe that you created the ego with a thought
T3:7.2 power of thought. If you can believe that you created the ego with a  thought or an idea, you can see where the power of thought is your
T3:7.2 the ego with a thought or an idea, you can see where the power of  thought is your power as well as God’s.
T3:7.6 many doors. You have chosen many doors to the same house and but  thought them to offer different things, only to find that the house
T3:7.7 one found poetry and another music, one seized upon a single  thought and through its extrapolation founded one science or another.
T3:8.3 played upon these feelings, using them as building blocks for its  thought system. As long as you carry this bitterness within you, you
T3:8.7 within God’s creation. As was said in “A Treatise on the Art of  Thought,” the idea of love can replace the idea of suffering but it
T3:8.8 that even an army of angels could not bring about. While such a  thought remains inconceivable to you it will not come to be.
T3:9.3 within it and held together by the learned ideas of the ego  thought system. Now you must imagine yourself walking outside of the
T3:10.4 Taking away the idea of placing blame will change your  thought processes beyond your wildest imagining. You will be
T3:10.4 you no word or sentiment to replace it. I ask you simply to take the  thought of it from your mind as quickly as it enters.
T3:10.8 like all the rest, be forgotten. The process of forgetting these  thought patterns will be only slightly different from forgetting your
T3:10.10 your past uncertainty. Uncertainty, like all the rest of the ego’s  thought system, was learned. Your true Self has no cause for
T3:10.11 you as an echo from the past. It is a habit, a pattern of the old  thought system. All you must do is not listen to it. Its voice will
T3:10.12 but you will need to learn what will at first seem to you a foreign  thought system. This thought system recognizes no fear or judgment,
T3:10.12 learn what will at first seem to you a foreign thought system. This  thought system recognizes no fear or judgment, no uncertainty or
T3:10.12 no uncertainty or doubt, no contrast and no division. It is the  thought system of unity. It is your true thought system and will be
T3:10.12 and no division. It is the thought system of unity. It is your true  thought system and will be easily remembered once you begin to let it
T3:10.14 What we are doing now is much like translating the learned  thought system of the ego into the thought system of the Christ-Self
T3:10.14 much like translating the learned thought system of the ego into the  thought system of the Christ-Self that you but think you have
T3:10.14 dwell in the House of Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego  thought system, the thought system of your true Self will quite
T3:10.14 Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego thought system, the  thought system of your true Self will quite simply return to your
T3:10.14 will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon forget the  thought system of the ego-self even though, when encountering those
T3:10.14 the ego-self even though, when encountering those who still use that  thought system, you will be able to communicate with them. Yet the
T3:10.14 yourself continuously teaching the language, if you will, of the new  thought system, for you will have no desire to communicate with
T3:11.16 against righteousness. It comes to remind you, as you replace the  thought system of illusion with the thought system of the truth, that
T3:11.16 remind you, as you replace the thought system of illusion with the  thought system of the truth, that having remembered the truth of who
T3:11.16 wrong. This temptation will not long be with you for once the old  thought system is thoroughly translated to the new, such ideas as
T3:13.2 temptations of the human experience. In “A Treatise on the Art of  Thought,” we spoke of these temptations in regards to extremes of the
T3:13.4 lies ahead of you now is simply learning in accordance with the new  thought system of the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion
T3:13.4 the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion behind. The new  thought system is simple to learn. What is of love is truth. What is
T3:13.14 form and your Self as your physical self represents, in form, the  thought or image produced within the Self. Ideas, in the context in
T3:14.1 The death of the ego  thought system has made way for the birth of the thought system of
T3:14.1 The death of the ego thought system has made way for the birth of the  thought system of the truth. The thought system of the ego was based
T3:14.1 has made way for the birth of the thought system of the truth. The  thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this time of
T3:14.1 of the ego was based on fear. In this time of translation from one  thought system to the other, the most subtle and yet significant
T3:14.1 is the change from the foundation of fear, the basis of the ego  thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought
T3:14.1 of the ego thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the  thought system of truth. While the foundation of fear, like the ego,
T3:14.1 action, you will not experience the freedom of living from the new  thought system. The new thought system will still exist within your
T3:14.1 the freedom of living from the new thought system. The new  thought system will still exist within your mind and heart, as
T3:14.1 nothing can now take this memory from you, but to experience the new  thought system as thought alone will not bring about the changes you
T3:14.1 this memory from you, but to experience the new thought system as  thought alone will not bring about the changes you would so desire to
T3:14.2 Let me attempt to make the difference between having a new  thought system and living by a new thought system more clear. Because
T3:14.2 difference between having a new thought system and living by a new  thought system more clear. Because you now are translating the
T3:14.2 a new thought system more clear. Because you now are translating the  thought system of the ego into the thought system of the truth, you
T3:14.2 you now are translating the thought system of the ego into the  thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe in such things
T3:14.3 with you old patterns of behavior. Once the translation of the new  thought system for the old is complete, this will no longer happen.
T3:14.5 immeasurably in leaving behind patterns of behavior based on the old  thought system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which
T3:14.5 system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which your old  thought system was based, you still would not be other than who you
T3:14.8 making but simply the choice to live by the truth of the new  thought system. If you but let go the old, and with it the patterns
T3:15.11 this new beginning save for the finalizing of the translation of the  thought system of the ego to the thought system of the truth. As we
T3:15.11 of the translation of the thought system of the ego to the  thought system of the truth. As we have said before, it is impossible
T3:15.11 As we have said before, it is impossible to learn the new with the  thought system of the old. It is impossible to learn the truth
T3:15.11 that love, peace, and truth are interchangeable ideas within the new  thought system. Thus, truth, like love, is not something that you can
T3:15.14 the past. What will assist you most, as the translation of the old  thought system for the new continues, are the beliefs that you
T3:15.16 be represented in form. These beliefs can, with the help of the new  thought system, change the very nature of the self described by the
T3:15.18 The total replacement of illusion with the truth is what the new  thought system will accomplish. Obviously, this replacement must be
T3:16.3 which it is you plan. These have been the ways of creation in the  thought system of the ego, ways that have brought much advancement to
T3:16.8 mind and heart will aid the translation of this aspect of the ego  thought system to the thought system of the truth.
T3:16.8 aid the translation of this aspect of the ego thought system to the  thought system of the truth.
T3:16.12 this fear of loss, you would not find it difficult to live by the  thought system of the truth. This fear relates very strongly to your
T3:16.16 All of these temptations worked together in the  thought system of the ego and created patterns that caused them to
T3:16.17 of the truth and see the reverse take place. See how quickly the  thought system of the truth builds upon itself and forms a real and
T3:17.4 beginning you are now called to. It required the learning of a new  thought system, the thought system of the physical, a thought system
T3:17.4 now called to. It required the learning of a new thought system, the  thought system of the physical, a thought system that was not needed
T3:17.4 of a new thought system, the thought system of the physical, a  thought system that was not needed before there was physical form.
T3:17.4 other creation stories, but tell of a “mistake” in the learning of a  thought system of physicality, a mistake that became a building block
T3:17.8 God the Creator, has known the existence of the illusion and the  thought system of the ego-self and been able to communicate within
T3:18.9 way, you will join the mechanisms of your physical form to the new  thought system of the truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a
T3:18.9 you choose to have it serve you. It has always been led by your  thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the thought system
T3:18.9 led by your thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the  thought system of illusion, it is natural to realize that it will now
T3:18.9 it is natural to realize that it will now be instructed by the  thought system of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe
T3:18.10 of your mind. This is the thinking of the ego-thought system. The  thought system of the truth realizes that the external world is but a
T3:19.1 occur within your physical form as it begins to be guided by the  thought system of the truth rather than the thought system of
T3:19.1 to be guided by the thought system of the truth rather than the  thought system of illusion. You will fear these changes less if you
T3:19.2 For ages man has  thought that spiritual joy diminishes physical joy. While there is no
T3:19.4 and retribution. These things have always had as their cause the  thought system of the ego or the bitterness of the heart. As cause
T3:19.4 in physical form without a corresponding cause birthed in the ego  thought system or the bitterness of the heart.
T3:19.9 There is no longer any time to waste on such illusions. The  thought system of the truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it
T3:19.9 truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The  thought system of the truth is a thought system that is not split by
T3:19.9 and so sees it not in truth. The thought system of the truth is a  thought system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is
T3:19.9 system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is a  thought system of unity. It is a thought system of one thought, one
T3:19.9 varying goals and desires. It is a thought system of unity. It is a  thought system of one thought, one goal. That goal is the original
T3:19.9 It is a thought system of unity. It is a thought system of one  thought, one goal. That goal is the original thought that began the
T3:19.9 a thought system of one thought, one goal. That goal is the original  thought that began the experience in physical form, the thought of
T3:19.9 the original thought that began the experience in physical form, the  thought of expressing the Self in observable form.
T3:19.10 to which the body merely responded. The body’s response to the new  thought system will be different in many ways, none of which will
T3:19.11 While others still remain tied to the old  thought system, human behavior will still reflect harmful actions
T3:19.12 These lessons could not be taught while blame remained within your  thought system. No victim is to blame for the violence done to them.
T3:20.1 seemed to become a master that made of you a slave. Now time must be  thought of in a new way, a way that has to do with effectiveness.
T3:20.1 a false cause and so no effects that exist in truth. Now, your every  thought and action will have effect, and the choices that lie before
T3:20.4 In “A Treatise on the Art of  Thought,” you were asked to request a miracle as a learning device.
T3:20.10 Your new  thought system is not tied to beliefs of an “if this, then that”
T3:21.15 feel you have chosen to be within that world. Whether you have given  thought to the interconnection of these ideas you hold about yourself
T3:21.20 personal self will be useful as that certainty is translated to the  thought system of the truth and aids you in becoming certain of your
T3:22.12 what is and what will be. You may have, upon reading those words,  thought that this creative tension would not necessarily be a good
T3:22.15 might not. Realize that this game of chance is a pattern of the old  thought system that needs to be replaced by certainty. If you have
T3:22.15 game and have fun doing it. Do not bring this attitude into your new  thought system or your new life. If you are tired of the old, be
T4:1.23 You may have seen the acts that this yearning has driven them to and  thought, incorrectly, that the new time that is here is the end of
T4:1.23 time that is here is the end of the days of innocence. You may have  thought it advantageous to have once been so clearly able to see the
T4:2.13 your Self and in your uncertainty, still subject to the patterns of  thought of the old. Many of these patterns do not concern me for they
T4:2.31 Have you expected to see in the same way but more lovingly? Have you  thought you might begin to recognize those who, like you, are joined
T4:2.31 Have you included other senses in your idea of sight? Have you  thought your instincts will be sharpened and that you will know with
T4:5.13 you have believed in any kind of afterlife at all, you have perhaps  thought of the afterlife as having two sides. Some have thought of
T4:5.13 have perhaps thought of the afterlife as having two sides. Some have  thought of this as heaven and hell. Others as all or nothing. Many of
T4:5.13 this as heaven and hell. Others as all or nothing. Many of you have  thought of it as a time of judgment. But I tell you truly; it is no
T4:6.8 accept in this fullness of time. In this time of unity, dedicate all  thought to unity. Accept no separation. Accept all choices. Thus are
T4:7.6 The mind, once released from the ego’s  thought system, has but to relearn the thought system of the truth.
T4:7.6 once released from the ego’s thought system, has but to relearn the  thought system of the truth. Your mind, heart, and body have joined
T4:8.7 was! If you can imagine for a moment yourself as a being whose every  thought became manifest, as perhaps you can envision from remembering
T4:12.10 The only way to do so is to, for a short while, be vigilant of your  thought patterns so that you eradicate the idea of learning in
T4:12.20 they are replaced by a new pattern. That self-doubt arises in your  thought patterns will not mean that you have cause for self-doubt.
T4:12.23 words, you, as a being of singular consciousness, could learn the  thought patterns of a singular consciousness because it was a finite
T4:12.23 could think of this as something which, were it integrated into the  thought processes of the singular brain, would cause brain damage,
T4:12.27 the pattern of your thoughts, even after the ego came to rule your  thought system. Without this pattern, the ego could have succeeded in
D:1.12 This  thought makes you worry about the identity of the one you have called
D:1.21 unity, a learning that has been different from all learning you but  thought you accomplished as a separated self. You have achieved an
D:2.11 you desired it to be you call it a failure. You admit that what you  thought would work did not work.
D:2.12 trial and error. No sure results are counted on. When a pattern of  thought or behavior has been found to work in more cases than not, it
D:3.8 to you because you have recently learned them and through the art of  thought begun to integrate them into the elevated Self of form. These
D:4.7 For most, the prison system is a very successful deterrent. The  thought of time in prison fills the mind with fear. And yet those who
D:4.9 Your prison was created by the separated thoughts of the separated  thought “system.” Systems, as you may recall, are the result of your
D:4.14 Systems of  thought are both divinely inspired and products of the separated
D:4.14 the separated self. The idea of giving and receiving as one might be  thought of as a divinely inspired system of thought. In such a way of
D:4.14 as one might be thought of as a divinely inspired system of  thought. In such a way of thinking, one would take the internal
D:4.14 of thought. In such a way of thinking, one would take the internal  thought pattern, enhance it with the external pattern, and by seeing
D:4.14 cooperation of all, understand and live according to the system of  thought of giving and receiving being one. Systems of thought are
D:4.14 the system of thought of giving and receiving being one. Systems of  thought are thus the foundation upon which how you live arises. The
D:4.14 foundation upon which how you live arises. The truth is a system of  thought. It exists in wholeness and has always been available.
D:4.15 Systems of  thought that arose from the separated self are those you have
D:4.15 are those you have accepted as the truth. Some of these systems of  thought were part of the divine pattern. Contrast is one such system.
D:4.15 for your learning. It was upon the foundation of this and other  thought systems that your perception developed. Through contrast, you
D:4.16 Other systems of  thought were not part of the divine pattern. The ego is one such
D:4.16 and we have heretofore referred to both the ego and to the ego’s  thought system, but the ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and
D:4.16 the ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and of itself. It is  thought externalized and given an identity you but falsely believed
D:4.16 you but falsely believed to be yourself. From this one externalized  thought pattern came most of your false ideas, ideas that made it
D:4.16 ideas, ideas that made it difficult even for the divinely inspired  thought systems to provide the learning they were designed to impart.
D:4.17 patterns, or systems, were also built from the systems of  thought that have been your foundation, the basic building blocks of
D:4.24 rather than learning. Turn to this as the new pattern and to the  thought system of giving and receiving as one. Let the authority of
D:5.7 the body and its acts as representative of truth. You have  thought the things you do represent your drives, but they simply
D:5.10 now as you are called to see what you might previously have  thought of as inconsequential in the light of truth. Everything given
D:5.20 with the universe? As you can see, you are now approaching another  thought reversal. Fear not that your confusion will last, for with
D:5.20 reversal. Fear not that your confusion will last, for with this  thought reversal will come your final release.
D:6.2 that will be used less and less as the time of learning passes. The  thought reversal of which we recently spoke is why I bring this up.
D:6.5 is thus with new ideas about the body that we will begin the final  thought reversal that will allow you to live in form as who you truly
D:6.17 and receiving are one, you will begin to see the enormity of the  thought reversal that now awaits your acceptance. As I said earlier,
D:6.21 take it one step away from the thinking of the “if this, then that”  thought system we are leaving behind. As a non-learning being you are
D:6.27 is capable of providing. We have redefined the miracle as the art of  thought, or the continual act of prayer that sustains the unity of
D:8.9 these dialogues. As the mind opens and accepts the new, the art of  thought will become your new means of thinking. What has been learned
D:9.2 The final  thought reversal that was spoken of in the section on acceptance is
D:9.3 led to see that this desire has always been with you, and you have  thought it is the very desire that, once defined and acted upon,
D:9.4 But you have  thought about this desire to know who you are in one way or another
D:9.4 learning, the pattern, even of your wholeheartedness, remains one of  thought. This pattern is what the new patterns of acceptance and
D:9.5  Thought is a practice and a pattern of the separated and thus
D:9.5 God, and when ideas were spoken of as if they were synonymous with  thought, this was an accurate and truthful way of expressing what was
D:9.8 with the teaching of “A Treatise on the Art of Thought”. If  thought is what imprisons you, why would the “art of thought” be
D:9.10 to create the new, through the means of old, including the means of  thought.
D:11.1 We haven’t, here, been talking of the art of  thought, but of the use of thought. You use thought to solve
D:11.1 haven’t, here, been talking of the art of thought, but of the use of  thought. You use thought to solve problems, apply thought to
D:11.1 talking of the art of thought, but of the use of thought. You use  thought to solve problems, apply thought to intellectual puzzles,
D:11.1 but of the use of thought. You use thought to solve problems, apply  thought to intellectual puzzles, focus your thoughts in order to make
D:11.2 in this way, dear brothers and sisters, is insane. To think of the  thought or idea of God by which you were created as the same type of
D:11.2 thought or idea of God by which you were created as the same type of  thought I have just described would be insane. Are you willing any
D:11.4 is of unity. True giving and receiving is not of the separated  thought of the separated thought system of the separated self. Your
D:11.4 and receiving is not of the separated thought of the separated  thought system of the separated self. Your acceptance of the concepts
D:11.4 on the Art of Thought” was but a beginning to the total rejection of  thought as you know it that must now occur in order to go on to
D:12.1 of your universe and yourself, there is no mechanism through which  thought can enter your mind. You believe thoughts exist in your mind
D:12.1 that a cessation of brain activity is equivalent to the end of  thought, you accept this as proof that your thoughts originate from
D:12.3 They are, quite simply, not the separated thoughts of the separated  thought system.
D:12.4 This work is called a dialogue. A dialogue is most often  thought of as a discourse between two or more people and as such is
D:12.9 from unity are not the same as the thoughts that arise from the  thought system of the separated self. We might make this a simpler
D:12.9 subject to discuss by making a distinction between thinking and  thought. This distinction, while it will not be consistent with your
D:12.13 assist you in leaving patterns of thinking behind is the idea that  thought as we are describing it, the thought that is not really
D:12.13 behind is the idea that thought as we are describing it, the  thought that is not really thought but the way of coming to know of
D:12.13 that thought as we are describing it, the thought that is not really  thought but the way of coming to know of the Self joined in unity,
D:14.1 of unity. Discovery is also consistent with the way most of you have  thought of it throughout your lifetime. It is, in other words,
D:14.13 it will become your identity.” That treasure is the new way of  thought put forth in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought”, the thought
D:14.13 way of thought put forth in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought”, the  thought that is the miracle, or miracle-readiness, the thought that
D:14.13 Thought”, the thought that is the miracle, or miracle-readiness, the  thought that comes of unity and that extends and expresses itself
D:15.17 Maintenance is  thought of most often as keeping what you have, and as keeping what
D:15.17 have, and as keeping what you have in good repair. It is not often  thought of as a lasting measure, which is the primary difference
D:16.5 know, the ability to be, the ability to create. Through the art of  thought, these abilities become who we are. God and Creation are
D:16.12 and it should not be seen as a cause for disappointment. Perhaps you  thought you were beyond this point of becoming. And yet, as you have
D:16.12 you have felt as if you still have a long way to go. You have often  thought that even though you may be done with learning, you don’t
D:16.17 is but a photograph that remains, a copy of what you once might have  thought of as your “original” self. It is but an impression, as in
D:17.13 as well as your desire, has moved beyond the pattern of  thought.
D:Day1.6 Now that you have moved beyond the  thought system of the ego self, you look back on it and realize why
D:Day1.6 ego was your guide. You were required to make a choice between the  thought system of the ego and the thought system of unity. This

D:Day3.31 joy would err in thinking that it could. How many times has what you  thought would provide you with reason for joy failed to do so once
D:Day4.5 has not been a choice. Both as divine design and as a pattern of the  thought system of the ego, learning has been with you and within you.
D:Day4.29 unnatural your breathing becomes when it becomes the focus of your  thought. Thinking about breathing imposes an unnatural constraint
D:Day4.51 fear, for fear is the cause of the state of learning. You may have  thought separation was the cause, but separation into form, had it

D:Day9.7 of expression, you believe you have allowed yourself freedom of  thought. You believe you have allowed yourself freedom of feeling.
D:Day10.10 This type of intuition seems to come more as  thought than as feeling, but even so, it is your feelings about such

D:Day10.11 most is rational thought, and intuition is different than rational  thought, as are feelings of all kinds. You think of feelings either

D:Day10.28 a particular person you fondly remember from life and how you have  thought of him or her since death. Do you not occasionally think that
D:Day13.1 Once the One Self became form and knew Its Self, it knew separate  thought. The separate thoughts of the one self, rather than the form

D:Day32.5 such a way, it is somewhat easier to relate to God than when God is  thought of in broader terms. You might think of God as you think of

D:6.2 that will be used less and less as the time of learning passes. The  thought reversal of which we recently spoke is why I bring this up.
D:6.5 is thus with new ideas about the body that we will begin the final  thought reversal that will allow you to live in form as who you truly

thought system (150)

C:2.17 Your mind rebels because it is the stronghold of the ego. Your  thought system is what has made the world you see, the ego its
C:6.8 truth and illusion. When you chose to deny relationship, you chose a  thought system based on the opposite of your reality. Thus each
C:7.5 This one thought constitutes a  thought system in and of itself, for it is the primary thought by
C:8.24 completed each night. Each day is your creation held together by the  thought system that gave it birth. To observe this is to see its
C:8.25 Everything is held together by the  thought system that gave birth to it. There are but two thought

C:8.25 are but two thought systems: the thought system of God, and the  thought system of the ego or the separated self. The thought system
C:8.25 of God, and the thought system of the ego or the separated self. The  thought system of the separated self sees everything in separation.
C:8.25 system of the separated self sees everything in separation. The  thought system of God sees everything in unity. God’s thought system
C:8.25 The thought system of God sees everything in unity. God’s  thought system is one of continuous creation, rebirth and renewal.

C:31.25 to keep truth a secret, one of the most ridiculous ideas of the ego  thought system.
T1:4.8 creation, put the “you” of the ego or the body at the center of its  thought system and from this central position developed all of its
T1:5.4 the all or the nothingness, the eternal or the void. While your  thought system here has been described often as insanity, this is the
T1:5.9 we have defined it many times within this Course, must exist in the  thought system that is real to you. The thought system of the
T1:5.9 Course, must exist in the thought system that is real to you. The  thought system of the ego-mind is what has been real to you and thus
T1:5.9 nothing else that will free who you are but freedom from the ego’s  thought system. That the ego’s thought system has kept you from this
T1:5.9 you are but freedom from the ego’s thought system. That the ego’s  thought system has kept you from this freedom is the seeming
T1:5.10 the only cause of your experience here. When released from the ego  thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you
T1:5.10 is the real you or center of your Self, being joined with the only  thought system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How
T1:5.10 Self, being joined with the only thought system that is real, the  thought system of the truth. How could a thought system based on
T1:5.10 system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How could a  thought system based on anything but the truth lead to anything but
T1:5.12 and finally convinced. You must experience the reality of the new  thought system or it will remain forever theoretical. You must let go
T1:5.12 You must let go of the foundation of fear on which the old  thought system was built in order to experience the new.
T1:5.13 The art of thought invites the experience of the new  thought system by being willing to replace the old with the new.
T1:6.1 The  thought system of the ego-mind is a learned system and this is why it
T1:6.1 is a learned system and this is why it can be unlearned. The  thought system of the truth is always present as the truth is always
T1:6.1 unlearned. It will thus be revealed to you as soon as the learned  thought system ceases to block its realization.
T3:1.6 self, as represented by your body, while adhering to the ego’s  thought system, became an ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal self
T3:1.7 The ego’s  thought system has been replaced by the thought system of unity and
T3:1.7 The ego’s thought system has been replaced by the  thought system of unity and you are left, perhaps, feeling unsure of
T3:1.13 with the ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns of the ego’s  thought system remain to be undone. This is atonement. We work now to
T3:2.4 same terms that made it necessary to thoroughly discuss the ego’s  thought system. What you believe about yourself is part of the
T3:2.11 impossible for you to imagine this holiness with the concepts of the  thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This thought system
T3:2.11 concepts of the thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This  thought system has allowed only the acceptance of a reality within
T3:3.7 the changed beliefs we have worked together to integrate into your  thought system, are only a first step, a step toward holy
T3:3.7 step, a step toward holy relationship. These new beliefs of your new  thought system must be wholehearted. They cannot be beliefs that
T3:6.4 self, there has always been just enough room within the ego’s  thought system to keep within you the idea of a self the ego is not.
T3:7.1 a separated self, a thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego’s  thought system then formed beliefs that supported the initial idea of
T3:8.3 played upon these feelings, using them as building blocks for its  thought system. As long as you carry this bitterness within you, you
T3:9.3 within it and held together by the learned ideas of the ego  thought system. Now you must imagine yourself walking outside of the
T3:10.10 your past uncertainty. Uncertainty, like all the rest of the ego’s  thought system, was learned. Your true Self has no cause for
T3:10.11 you as an echo from the past. It is a habit, a pattern of the old  thought system. All you must do is not listen to it. Its voice will
T3:10.12 but you will need to learn what will at first seem to you a foreign  thought system. This thought system recognizes no fear or judgment,
T3:10.12 learn what will at first seem to you a foreign thought system. This  thought system recognizes no fear or judgment, no uncertainty or
T3:10.12 no uncertainty or doubt, no contrast and no division. It is the  thought system of unity. It is your true thought system and will be
T3:10.12 and no division. It is the thought system of unity. It is your true  thought system and will be easily remembered once you begin to let it
T3:10.14 What we are doing now is much like translating the learned  thought system of the ego into the thought system of the Christ-Self
T3:10.14 much like translating the learned thought system of the ego into the  thought system of the Christ-Self that you but think you have
T3:10.14 dwell in the House of Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego  thought system, the thought system of your true Self will quite
T3:10.14 Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego thought system, the  thought system of your true Self will quite simply return to your
T3:10.14 will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon forget the  thought system of the ego-self even though, when encountering those
T3:10.14 the ego-self even though, when encountering those who still use that  thought system, you will be able to communicate with them. Yet the
T3:10.14 yourself continuously teaching the language, if you will, of the new  thought system, for you will have no desire to communicate with
T3:11.16 against righteousness. It comes to remind you, as you replace the  thought system of illusion with the thought system of the truth, that
T3:11.16 remind you, as you replace the thought system of illusion with the  thought system of the truth, that having remembered the truth of who
T3:11.16 wrong. This temptation will not long be with you for once the old  thought system is thoroughly translated to the new, such ideas as
T3:13.4 lies ahead of you now is simply learning in accordance with the new  thought system of the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion
T3:13.4 the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion behind. The new  thought system is simple to learn. What is of love is truth. What is
T3:14.1 The death of the ego  thought system has made way for the birth of the thought system of
T3:14.1 The death of the ego thought system has made way for the birth of the  thought system of the truth. The thought system of the ego was based
T3:14.1 has made way for the birth of the thought system of the truth. The  thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this time of
T3:14.1 of the ego was based on fear. In this time of translation from one  thought system to the other, the most subtle and yet significant
T3:14.1 is the change from the foundation of fear, the basis of the ego  thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought
T3:14.1 of the ego thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the  thought system of truth. While the foundation of fear, like the ego,
T3:14.1 action, you will not experience the freedom of living from the new  thought system. The new thought system will still exist within your
T3:14.1 the freedom of living from the new thought system. The new  thought system will still exist within your mind and heart, as
T3:14.1 nothing can now take this memory from you, but to experience the new  thought system as thought alone will not bring about the changes you
T3:14.2 Let me attempt to make the difference between having a new  thought system and living by a new thought system more clear. Because
T3:14.2 difference between having a new thought system and living by a new  thought system more clear. Because you now are translating the
T3:14.2 a new thought system more clear. Because you now are translating the  thought system of the ego into the thought system of the truth, you
T3:14.2 you now are translating the thought system of the ego into the  thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe in such things
T3:14.3 with you old patterns of behavior. Once the translation of the new  thought system for the old is complete, this will no longer happen.
T3:14.5 immeasurably in leaving behind patterns of behavior based on the old  thought system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which
T3:14.5 system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which your old  thought system was based, you still would not be other than who you
T3:14.8 making but simply the choice to live by the truth of the new  thought system. If you but let go the old, and with it the patterns
T3:15.11 this new beginning save for the finalizing of the translation of the  thought system of the ego to the thought system of the truth. As we
T3:15.11 of the translation of the thought system of the ego to the  thought system of the truth. As we have said before, it is impossible
T3:15.11 As we have said before, it is impossible to learn the new with the  thought system of the old. It is impossible to learn the truth
T3:15.11 that love, peace, and truth are interchangeable ideas within the new  thought system. Thus, truth, like love, is not something that you can
T3:15.14 the past. What will assist you most, as the translation of the old  thought system for the new continues, are the beliefs that you
T3:15.16 be represented in form. These beliefs can, with the help of the new  thought system, change the very nature of the self described by the
T3:15.18 The total replacement of illusion with the truth is what the new  thought system will accomplish. Obviously, this replacement must be
T3:16.3 which it is you plan. These have been the ways of creation in the  thought system of the ego, ways that have brought much advancement to
T3:16.8 mind and heart will aid the translation of this aspect of the ego  thought system to the thought system of the truth.
T3:16.8 aid the translation of this aspect of the ego thought system to the  thought system of the truth.
T3:16.12 this fear of loss, you would not find it difficult to live by the  thought system of the truth. This fear relates very strongly to your
T3:16.16 All of these temptations worked together in the  thought system of the ego and created patterns that caused them to
T3:16.17 of the truth and see the reverse take place. See how quickly the  thought system of the truth builds upon itself and forms a real and
T3:17.4 beginning you are now called to. It required the learning of a new  thought system, the thought system of the physical, a thought system
T3:17.4 now called to. It required the learning of a new thought system, the  thought system of the physical, a thought system that was not needed
T3:17.4 of a new thought system, the thought system of the physical, a  thought system that was not needed before there was physical form.
T3:17.4 other creation stories, but tell of a “mistake” in the learning of a  thought system of physicality, a mistake that became a building block
T3:17.8 God the Creator, has known the existence of the illusion and the  thought system of the ego-self and been able to communicate within
T3:18.9 way, you will join the mechanisms of your physical form to the new  thought system of the truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a
T3:18.9 you choose to have it serve you. It has always been led by your  thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the thought system
T3:18.9 led by your thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the  thought system of illusion, it is natural to realize that it will now
T3:18.9 it is natural to realize that it will now be instructed by the  thought system of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe
T3:18.10 of your mind. This is the thinking of the ego-thought system. The  thought system of the truth realizes that the external world is but a
T3:19.1 occur within your physical form as it begins to be guided by the  thought system of the truth rather than the thought system of
T3:19.1 to be guided by the thought system of the truth rather than the  thought system of illusion. You will fear these changes less if you
T3:19.4 and retribution. These things have always had as their cause the  thought system of the ego or the bitterness of the heart. As cause
T3:19.4 in physical form without a corresponding cause birthed in the ego  thought system or the bitterness of the heart.
T3:19.9 There is no longer any time to waste on such illusions. The  thought system of the truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it
T3:19.9 truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The  thought system of the truth is a thought system that is not split by
T3:19.9 and so sees it not in truth. The thought system of the truth is a  thought system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is
T3:19.9 system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is a  thought system of unity. It is a thought system of one thought, one
T3:19.9 varying goals and desires. It is a thought system of unity. It is a  thought system of one thought, one goal. That goal is the original
T3:19.10 to which the body merely responded. The body’s response to the new  thought system will be different in many ways, none of which will
T3:19.11 While others still remain tied to the old  thought system, human behavior will still reflect harmful actions
T3:19.12 These lessons could not be taught while blame remained within your  thought system. No victim is to blame for the violence done to them.
T3:20.10 Your new  thought system is not tied to beliefs of an “if this, then that”
T3:21.20 personal self will be useful as that certainty is translated to the  thought system of the truth and aids you in becoming certain of your
T3:22.15 might not. Realize that this game of chance is a pattern of the old  thought system that needs to be replaced by certainty. If you have
T3:22.15 game and have fun doing it. Do not bring this attitude into your new  thought system or your new life. If you are tired of the old, be
T4:7.6 The mind, once released from the ego’s  thought system, has but to relearn the thought system of the truth.
T4:7.6 once released from the ego’s thought system, has but to relearn the  thought system of the truth. Your mind, heart, and body have joined
T4:12.27 the pattern of your thoughts, even after the ego came to rule your  thought system. Without this pattern, the ego could have succeeded in
D:4.16 and we have heretofore referred to both the ego and to the ego’s  thought system, but the ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and
D:4.24 rather than learning. Turn to this as the new pattern and to the  thought system of giving and receiving as one. Let the authority of
D:6.21 take it one step away from the thinking of the “if this, then that”  thought system we are leaving behind. As a non-learning being you are
D:11.4 and receiving is not of the separated thought of the separated  thought system of the separated self. Your acceptance of the concepts
D:12.3 They are, quite simply, not the separated thoughts of the separated  thought system.
D:12.9 from unity are not the same as the thoughts that arise from the  thought system of the separated self. We might make this a simpler
D:Day1.6 Now that you have moved beyond the  thought system of the ego self, you look back on it and realize why

C:31.2 is not so unacceptable to you as the idea of sharing one mind. Your  thoughts, you feel, are your own, private and sacrosanct. These

C:31.2 and regarded thoughts are what A Course in Miracles calls body  thoughts. Distinctions are made in many religions and philosophies
C:31.2 by the body—from thought of a higher order, or spiritual thought.  Thoughts related to your personal self and the “laws” of the body,
C:31.2 and the “laws” of the body, such as those of survival, are not the  thoughts of the true Self. This is the clarification that needs to be
C:31.11 the upside-down perception that causes you to protect your private  thoughts and see them as the seat of yourself calls for the exact
C:31.11 true source of conflict. And, yet again, your perception of your  thoughts as yourself is the closest answer to the truth that you were
C:31.11 come up with. There is a part of you that knows that you have higher  thoughts, and knows that these higher thoughts are your Self. Rather
C:31.11 knows that you have higher thoughts, and knows that these higher  thoughts are your Self. Rather than discriminating between higher and
C:31.11 are your Self. Rather than discriminating between higher and lower  thoughts, you have aggrandized all your thoughts and given them an
C:31.11 between higher and lower thoughts, you have aggrandized all your  thoughts and given them an identity we have called the ego. Without

C:31.15 You neither want to share your most negative nor your most positive  thoughts about yourself. These are your great secrets, the secrets

T1:2.7 These rewards have further emphasized the importance of such focused  thoughts and thus further entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you
T1:2.10 The  thoughts of your ego-mind were ruled by the nature of the body. To
T1:2.10 ruled by the nature of the body. To exist as creatures whose only  thoughts are of survival of the body is to exist in a lower order.
T1:3.5 And yet you dare not try to live without it. Why? Because of the  thoughts of the ego-mind. The ego-mind is concerned only with its own
T1:3.8 change your mind about who you are and thus about the nature of your  thoughts.
T1:3.21 These  thoughts border on the sacrilegious. Miracles are the realm of Jesus
T1:3.23 would be to have ideas of grandeur not meant for you. Here your  thoughts might stray to the performing of many miracles. What a media
T1:3.24 selfish. You might be proved to have no faith. You might succumb to  thoughts of grandeur.
T1:4.2 You have not been asked to request a specific miracle. Although your  thoughts have naturally gone to consideration of the specific, this
T1:4.2 ego-mind. This Treatise must change that habit in order for all your  thoughts to become the miracles that express the truth of who you
T1:4.9 Your responsibilities shift completely under the laws of God. Your  thoughts are released from their concentration on what exists outside
T1:4.10 for and this lesson will become more clear. While your first  thoughts will automatically go to a lengthy list of those concerns

T2:1.13 Ego desires cause one to think of a grand piano.  Thoughts joined in unity hear music. Ego desires cause one to think
T2:1.13 Ego desires cause one to think of an elaborately framed painting.  Thoughts joined in unity see beauty. You are used to thinking that if

T2:4.8 idea of calling with two sets of feelings and thoughts. One set of  thoughts and feelings contain all that one might attribute to the
T2:4.8 of a gift of high value, or in other words, a treasure. One set of  thoughts and feelings contain all that one might attribute to the
T2:4.8 onset of yet another responsibility, another obligation. One set of  thoughts recognizes that something has been given. The other set
T2:4.9 While two sets of  thoughts and feelings exist, the only way to come to peace with them
T2:4.9 the willingness to move through the conflict of two opposing sets of  thoughts and feelings to the place of unity.
T2:4.10 with regard to calling is recognizing the dualistic nature of your  thoughts and feelings. A second step is willingness to move past both
T2:7.17 How often have you hidden  thoughts and feelings because you question whether they are
T2:7.17 and feelings because you question whether they are legitimate  thoughts and feelings? For some of you this answer has changed
T2:7.17 you, you have become less, rather than more forthcoming about your  thoughts and feelings since taking this Course. You have done so out
T2:7.17 have done so out of a desire to be truthful, a desire to not express  thoughts and feelings unworthy of your real Self. You may have
T2:7.17 unworthy of your real Self. You may have increasingly denied  thoughts and feelings you would judge as negative or bad. Or you may
T2:7.19 that comes your way? No, but this does mean that you bring the  thoughts and feelings that arise to the place within your heart that
T2:7.19 to discriminate, to separate the false from the true, for your ego  thoughts cannot long abide in the holy place of your heart. Then,
T2:12.1 Miracles are  thoughts and I am the corrector of false thinking. You have been made
T3:3.9 of this Course into practice. If not quite this drastic, your  thoughts might tell you that if you were in another job, devoid of
T3:3.9 yourself unsuitable for further learning. Whether you think such  thoughts consciously or not, there is a part of you that still

T3:8.3 of illusion for your feelings are as real to you as have been the  thoughts of your ego-mind. While anything other than the truth
T3:10.5 consciously choosing not to place blame will short-circuit the many  thoughts that you would attach to this idea, thoughts that have

T3:10.9 The first step in being able to forget such  thoughts is in recognizing them as separate and distinct from the
T3:10.9 thoughts is in recognizing them as separate and distinct from the  thoughts of your right mind or Christ-mind. This will be easy because
T3:10.9 of your right mind or Christ-mind. This will be easy because the  thoughts of the ego-mind were always harsh with you or with others.
T3:10.9 were always harsh with you or with others. The Christ-mind and the  thoughts that come from the voice of the Christ-mind will be gentle.
T3:10.9 that come from the voice of the Christ-mind will be gentle. The  thoughts of the ego-mind will come as disguises to certainty. Given

T3:13.14 Ideas, in the context in which we are speaking of them here, are  thoughts or images originating from the Self and being represented by
T3:20.1 and the choices that lie before you will be choices of where your  thoughts and actions will have the greatest effect.
T3:20.3 Again, do not let your  thoughts stray to benefiting and affecting others. In unity, all
T3:21.12 as part of what makes you certain of your personal self, are the  thoughts of your mind, thoughts that while certainly changeable, are
T3:21.12 you certain of your personal self, are the thoughts of your mind,  thoughts that while certainly changeable, are unmistakably claimed to
T3:21.15 and so on. The aspect that has to do with beliefs is linked to your  thoughts and ideas about the world you live in and the “type” of
T3:21.16 world view cannot help but be different than your own—those whose  thoughts are surely as distinct and separate as are your own.
T3:21.18 your identity, an identity that has nothing to do with the  thoughts of a separated mind or the circumstances of the physical
T4:10.2 or be anything beyond that which you now are, without learning. Your  thoughts might stray to ideas about experiencing, rather than
T4:12.20 now in the state of Christ-consciousness, the pattern of the old  thoughts will continue until they are replaced by a new pattern. That

D:11.1 your thoughts to communicate effectively, you take note of your  thoughts and you take notes on the thoughts of others.
D:11.1 you take note of your thoughts and you take notes on the  thoughts of others.
D:11.2 You might even consider this Dialogue the written notes of my  thoughts. In this one example can you not see the fallacy inherent in
D:11.2 is capable of taking notes? You think it is only the content of your  thoughts that differentiate you from others. Do you think the same is

D:11.5 your promise has lit a bonfire in your heart and begun a stampede of  thoughts within your mind. Again, is this not what we spoke of in the
D:11.7 acceptance that it is already accomplished. And yet, as soon as your  thoughts begin to accept this, many of you reverse the direction of
D:11.7 begin to accept this, many of you reverse the direction of your  thoughts and turn to ideas of what you still need to do to accomplish
D:11.7 make your contribution. Such is the way of the mind, the way of the  thoughts of the mind.

D:11.18 Turn now not to your  thoughts, but to the mind and heart joined in unity. In unity! Unity

D:12.2 words, in fact, “hears” these words as thoughts. They are not “her”  thoughts, but they also are not separate from her. How can this be?

D:12.10 moment at the end of the day. Again we will see the idea of  thoughts “coming to you” at such times. This is not the “thinking” of
D:12.11 Thinking is more descriptive of the ego mind;  thoughts are more descriptive of the true mind. I am not saying that

D:Day10.33 My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, turn your  thoughts not to ideals of social activism, to causes, or to
D:Day10.33 or to championing any one side over another. Turn not to your  thoughts but to your feelings and go where they lead. And everywhere
D:Day12.1 we listen with a new ear, the ear of the heart. Now we recognize the  thoughts that would censor our feelings, calling them selfish,
D:Day12.1 uncaring, or judgmental. We examine. And we realize it is our  thoughts and not our feelings that are selfish, uncaring, or
D:Day12.1 Our space is the space of unity. It is the space of ease because  thoughts are no longer allowed their rule.

C:28.7 done. This it is, but without the drudgery of time spent. It is your  time to shine, to be a light to those who live in darkness.
C:28.8 And yet it is a  time of great humility. Of wearing the face of Christ for all to see.
C:28.10 As the dawn is unrestrained in its bursting forth, so has been your  time of innocence. Not so the approach of day as the sun slowly rises
C:28.10 of day as the sun slowly rises and as slowly sets. This is a  time of being both guided and restrained. A time of realizing that
C:28.10 slowly sets. This is a time of being both guided and restrained. A  time of realizing that you can know without knowing what to do, and
C:28.10 it, this is, at first, quite true. But now it is no longer the  time to rely on conviction that comes from the witnesses you find
C:28.10 you find along your way. They serve a limited purpose for a limited  time. Now is the time to step beyond the validation that your
C:28.10 way. They serve a limited purpose for a limited time. Now is the  time to step beyond the validation that your teachers can give you.
C:29.1 requirements of the present. It is the appropriate attitude for the  time of tenderness, as it is an attitude of ministry.
C:29.9 The  time of tenderness is the time of your approach to unity. The

C:29.11 toil is part of your rebellion against ideas of service. You have no  time for more than you do now, and you think of service, if you think
C:29.12 important for you to realize that God’s work takes place outside of  time, as do all acts of true service or creation. This is not a

C:29.27 to learn or grow is ever missed. Each still exists, though not in  time. Each still exists, but in the present. Can you replace your
C:30.4 relationship is being present. Being present has nothing to do with  time as you think of it. You think of this instruction to be present
C:30.4 of this instruction to be present as an instruction that relates to  time. You think of present time, past time, future time. We have
C:30.4 present as an instruction that relates to time. You think of present  time, past time, future time. We have spoken of these modes of
C:30.4 an instruction that relates to time. You think of present time, past  time, future time. We have spoken of these modes of keeping time as
C:30.4 that relates to time. You think of present time, past time, future  time. We have spoken of these modes of keeping time as well, but as
C:30.4 past time, future time. We have spoken of these modes of keeping  time as well, but as the word keeping illustrates, there is nothing

C:30.8 matter. In matter, being must be attached to form. In the sense of  time described by the word present, there is no infinitude, but only
C:31.10 this notion of losing your Self to God, and you will be done for all  time with resisting God. Only in God can you find your Self. This is
C:31.10 to you, and is the reason for man’s quest for God throughout all  time. Man may think he looks to God for answers, for release from
C:31.33 truth. Giving and receiving are both taking place, both at the same  time, as are seeking and finding, once you are aware of what it is
C:32.5 kind. Thus will all you have already received be remembered in this  time of the second coming of Christ.
T1:1.11 change this will bring, and, as you are still experiencing change in  time, without guidance, this change would be seen as quite difficult
T1:2.1 of A Course of Love instructed you to think no more. A break in  time was needed for you to disengage the ego-mind that produced the
T1:3.12 convince you now is what I will provide. Such is the urgency of the  time, the urgency for the return to unity, the urgency of the need to
T1:4.17 interpretation of meaning if it is helpful to you, saves you  time, or seems in accord with your own views. Others of you feel it
T1:4.27 in you that it has become an aspect of yourself as human being. From  time immemorial, fear has been associated with God. This was the
T1:4.27 an end to fear and ushering in, with this ending, the beginning of a  time of miracles.
T1:5.4 is another aspect that relates to the fear of union we spent much  time discussing within A Course of Love. It is a fear of the human

T1:7.2 other hand there is light. One or the other must exist at a given  time, but never both. Thus the absence of good health is disease; the
T1:7.4 teaching device of the Holy Spirit. But I have not yet said that the  time of the Holy Spirit is ending even though I have stated that the
T1:7.4 time of the Holy Spirit is ending even though I have stated that the  time of the second coming of Christ is here. I have said that the
T1:7.4 time of the second coming of Christ is here. I have said that the  time of parables has ended and asked you not to look to those
T1:8.3 the understanding of the truth of an historical event changes over  time and it may take a hundred or a thousand or even two thousand
T1:8.3 previously, there is only one truth. There was only one truth at the  time the event or change took place, and there is only one truth in
T1:8.3 time the event or change took place, and there is only one truth in  time or eternity regardless of the variety of interpretations of the
T1:8.16 It is one more demonstration of what needs to occur now, in this  time, in order for the truth of the resurrection to be revealed and
T1:9.11 action, of inspiration and manifestation? It will mean union and a  time of miracles. It will mean that you are the living Body of Christ.
T1:9.13 learned this Course? Has it not seemed to lie dormant for periods of  time and then to suddenly be called back to life through some event
T2:1.4 may find in this a somewhat peaceful resting place to dwell in for a  time. You may find that despite having learned much about the need to
T2:1.9 becomes a completed painting that you hang upon your wall. The  time of painting becomes a place. A room or studio is envisioned in
T2:4.1 life beyond death as well as life before birth and life during your  time here. It is all one because it is all from the same Source.
T2:4.6 of separation, my dear brothers and sisters, and this is what it is  time for you to learn.
T2:4.12 to do. This is not about the past and all those things that at one  time or another you thought would bring you fulfillment. This is
T2:4.18 your calling even though some of you may feel as if you are in a  time of waiting for you hear no such call. The call is to be who you
T2:4.18 of its simultaneous nature. As was said within A Course of Love,  time is but a measurement of the “time” it takes for learning to
T2:4.18 of the “time” it takes for learning to occur. As this notion of  time dissolves, the state of miracle-readiness becomes your natural
T2:5.3 ambiguity. The certainty of an announcement can alert you that it is  time to act. This might be considered the highest form of call, the
T2:6.1 It is what alerts you to the treasures that lie within. There is no  time in the place we are calling within and your heart knows not of
T2:6.1 time in the place we are calling within and your heart knows not of  time even while it adheres to the rules of time you would place upon
T2:6.1 your heart knows not of time even while it adheres to the rules of  time you would place upon yourself. Cease adhering to the rules of
T2:6.1 time you would place upon yourself. Cease adhering to the rules of  time and see how much more the language of your heart becomes known
T2:6.2 I speak here not of the rules of  time that govern your days and years but the rules of time that you
T2:6.2 the rules of time that govern your days and years but the rules of  time that you believe govern your days and years and that you thus
T2:6.2 days and years and that you thus allow to govern your thinking. If  time is but a measure of learning, and if your learning is now at the
T2:6.2 stage at which it occurs in unison with unlearning, then the end of  time as you know it is close at hand. If you can begin now to think
T2:6.2 close at hand. If you can begin now to think without the barriers of  time you but place upon your thinking, you will advance this process
T2:6.2 bring about the end of the pattern of learning that you refer to as  time. The end of the pattern of learning that you refer to as time is
T2:6.2 to as time. The end of the pattern of learning that you refer to as  time is the beginning of the time of unity.
T2:6.2 of learning that you refer to as time is the beginning of the  time of unity.
T2:6.3 Let us review these beliefs and how they relate to your concept of  time.
T2:6.5 What does this mean in regards to  time? You might think of being accomplished as all of your work being
T2:6.5 is no work to be done, nothing for you to do, for what do you need  time? Have you ever conceived of accomplishing anything without
T2:6.5 conceived of accomplishing anything without taking into account the  time that it will take? Relate this question to our discussion of
T2:6.5 that your treasures only become accomplished abilities within  time. You believe that your treasures only become part of your
T2:6.5 only become part of your identity when you have passed beyond the  time it takes for those treasures to become abilities. Thus all that
T2:6.5 might wish to accomplish stands separate from you and beyond you in  time. That your mind projects what you desire to accomplish onto an
T2:6.5 mind projects what you desire to accomplish onto an unknown future  time is what would seem to keep you from accomplishment. I say that
T2:6.5 has worked, you act as if you are being kept from accomplishment by  time, and this “seems” quite real to you. This “seems” quite real to
T2:6.9 is a recognition that you exist in unity outside of the pattern of  time. Miracles create an out-of-pattern time interval. Thus living in
T2:6.9 outside of the pattern of time. Miracles create an out-of-pattern  time interval. Thus living in a state of miracle-readiness is the
T2:6.9 is the creation of a new reality outside of the pattern of ordinary  time. Although this state exists as the already accomplished, it is
T2:7.7 belief of all to integrate into the living of your life. Each  time another thwarts you, you will be tempted to believe that giving
T2:7.15 needs to be met. It is trusting that if you have a need for money or  time or honesty or love, it will be provided.
T2:7.17 and feelings? For some of you this answer has changed greatly over  time. But for many of you, you have become less, rather than more
T2:7.20 that giving and receiving are one in truth changes the function of  time as you know it. There is not a period of waiting or a period of
T2:7.20 time as you know it. There is not a period of waiting or a period of  time between giving and receiving. There is not a time-lapse between
T2:7.20 and receiving occur in unison, thus further collapsing the need for  time.
T2:7.21 of receiving and of needs being met may seem to still take  time, this belief builds on the belief of the already accomplished
T2:8.4 are calls to truth and but take the form of honesty for a brief  time as the truth of who you are is revealed to you and through your
T2:8.7 How much  time will be saved by an end to empty seeking? You have already
T2:8.7 by an end to empty seeking? You have already arrived and need no  time to journey any longer. How much time will be saved by an end to
T2:8.7 already arrived and need no time to journey any longer. How much  time will be saved by an end to the maintenance required by special
T2:9.1 I ask you now to remember a  time when you felt from another the desire to help or to meet your
T2:9.17 and exhaling, the give and take of breathing that you live. Each  time you are tempted to think that your needs can only be met in
T2:10.3 I ask you to think for a moment of a  time when you attempted to recall a specific memory. This may have
T2:10.3 it from you? You might feel frustrated with your memory at such a  time and even say something such as “my brain just isn’t working
T2:11.7 This is why we spent a fair amount of  time addressing needs in a way we had not previously addressed them.
T2:11.15 it still, will be demonstrated before you just as it has been from  time immemorial. Is this what you would have continue? Does this not
T2:11.16 not know who you are. You may think you know, and you may waste much  time in perceived battles, valiantly fighting for good to win out
T2:13.2 to return you to your Self. Now that you have been made ready, it is  time for us to have a personal relationship. We have, within these
T2:13.4 with our Father. As you move into the world with the end of the  time of separation and the beginning of the time of unity taking
T2:13.4 with the end of the time of separation and the beginning of the  time of unity taking place around you, practice the beliefs that have
T2:13.4 beliefs that have been put forth in this Treatise. Know that, in the  time of unity, the truth will be shared by all.
T2:13.5 state of grace in which you exist here and remain forever beyond all  time and the passing of all form. It is an attitude of praise and
T2:13.6 as I guide you to your purpose here and linger with you in this  time to end all time. We are here, together, in love, to share love.
T2:13.6 you to your purpose here and linger with you in this time to end all  time. We are here, together, in love, to share love. This is not such
T3:1.11 once presented to others as “who you were” was a self who existed in  time, a self who believed that the past made up the self of the
T3:1.12 I can do this because I accomplished this, both in life and in all  time and time beyond time, making you, along with me, the
T3:1.12 this because I accomplished this, both in life and in all time and  time beyond time, making you, along with me, the accomplished. As has
T3:1.12 I accomplished this, both in life and in all time and time beyond  time, making you, along with me, the accomplished. As has already
T3:2.4 While much  time was spent within this Course, discussing the choice you but
T3:4.1 not a self-help course but just the opposite. This Course has stated  time and time again that you cannot learn on your own and that
T3:4.1 course but just the opposite. This Course has stated time and  time again that you cannot learn on your own and that resigning as
T3:4.7 to save the first. The ego has also been dismantled and rebuilt over  time and been seen as the rise and fall of civilizations. But as we
T3:5.2 not all emptiness has come to you at the hands of suffering. Each  time you have “fallen” in love you have emptied a space for love to
T3:5.2 “fallen” in love you have emptied a space for love to fill. Each  time you have felt true devotion you have emptied a space for love to
T3:5.4 foundation, attempting to make do with what you have. All your  time was spent in making repairs and this time spent kept you too
T3:5.4 what you have. All your time was spent in making repairs and this  time spent kept you too busy to see the light that was always visible
T3:5.6 The story that I lived was appropriate for the  time in which I lived it, and has an appropriateness that continues
T3:5.6 the earth in order to reveal a God of love. The question of the  time, a question still much in evidence, was how mighty could God’s
T3:5.8 This story has been repeated endlessly in  time, in time extending both forward and back. Each father’s son will
T3:5.8 This story has been repeated endlessly in time, in  time extending both forward and back. Each father’s son will die.
T3:6.4 everything, including your very existence. This blame is as old as  time itself and the cause of bitterness being able to exist, even
T3:6.6 none can cleanse bitterness from the heart without your choice. The  time of tenderness began your release of bitterness and made you
T3:8.4 that you are attached to, I want you to think of attachments for a  time and see how bitterness does indeed fit into this category.
T3:8.4 or the identity of many past lives, the identity you hold in this  time and this place still believes in its own history and that of
T3:9.2 did. Yet, as these ideas are not learned ideas, they will not take  time, as did the ego’s ideas, to spread through learning.
T3:9.5 no more. This was the work of many who came before you but the  time of such work, for you, is past. Many remain to shake the walls
T3:9.7 This is the pilgrimage I set you upon, as real as those who in the  time of Moses journeyed through the desert to the Promised Land. That
T3:10.4 again and I choose to do so no longer.” You need not spend any more  time with blame than this and I offer you no word or sentiment to
T3:10.7 of earlier will be able to be realized. You have passed through your  time of unlearning what the past but seemed to teach you. Now, while
T3:10.8 of its messages remain within your thoughts, like echoes of a former  time. These thoughts are remembered messages and so must, like all
T3:10.11 like remedial lessons, they are not. You are no longer called to a  time of uncertainty to learn through contrast the lessons of
T3:10.11 Thus when uncertainty arises, you need but remind yourself that the  time for uncertainty is past. Uncertainty will not now come to teach
T3:10.14 Yet the ease with which you communicate with them will diminish over  time. You will find yourself continuously teaching the language, if
T3:11.6 During the  time I spent on earth I did not dwell in the house of illusion but in
T3:11.15 they exist in the House of Truth. You will, in truth, for quite some  time, be striving to remain aware even that you have changed dwelling
T3:11.15 that you have changed dwelling places. There is a reason for this  time of varying degrees of awareness. As the old continues to help
T3:12.2 You exist within the  time of consciousness of the personal self. Thus we begin our work
T3:12.2 steps that came before that of the personal self did not come within  time. The creation of time was simultaneous with the creation of the
T3:12.2 that of the personal self did not come within time. The creation of  time was simultaneous with the creation of the personal self. Because
T3:12.2 the steps that came before that of the personal self did not come in  time, they are eternal, eternal levels of consciousness that still
T3:12.3 Temptations of the human experience exist only in  time. What we are about to do is move the human experience out of the
T3:12.3 we are about to do is move the human experience out of the realm of  time. For this to happen, we must remove the time-bound temptations
T3:12.4 Matter or form is bound by  time. Spirit is not. The House of Truth cannot be bound by time and
T3:12.4 bound by time. Spirit is not. The House of Truth cannot be bound by  time and be a House of Truth. How then can the personal self begin to
T3:12.4 the personal self begin to realize the human experience outside of  time? The answer is thus: by changing the consciousness of the
T3:14.1 the truth. The thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this  time of translation from one thought system to the other, the most
T3:14.10 this point, still hold to yourself and call unforgivable, now is the  time to let them go. If you have read the paragraph above and feel it
T3:14.11 whether you want suffering to continue or want to abolish it for all  time. If you are holding onto regrets you are holding on to blame. If
T3:14.12 the future can be built upon it. This is why we have spent so much  time unlearning and why we continue with lessons of forgetting.
T3:16.6 What is, is, despite the lag in  time that would seem to make all that we speak of here a blueprint
T3:16.6 a blueprint for some future reality. All that would keep this lag in  time a constant, and make it seem as if what is now is still awaiting
T3:17.3 As soon as spirit took on form, man began to exist in  time because there became a need for a beginning and an ending to the
T3:17.3 ending to the chosen experience. Thus each self of form is born into  time and each self of form dies out of time. Both birth and death
T3:17.3 self of form is born into time and each self of form dies out of  time. Both birth and death have always existed as choices, as
T3:17.3 as choices, as beginnings and endings to the finite experience of  time. It is the nature of what is finite to begin and end. Birth and
T3:17.4 As has been said before,  time is a measurement of the “time” it takes for learning to occur. A
T3:17.5 that has led, through the learning of untruth in the mechanism of  time, to the world in which you now exist. It may seem ridiculous to
T3:17.5 can be learned, but this is exactly what has been learned during the  time of your experience in physical form. Since your true Self could

T3:17.7 Art of Thought” that the time of the Holy Spirit has ended and the  time of the second coming of Christ is here. The name of Christ was
T3:17.7 followed their teachings and example. This has occurred within the  time of the Holy Spirit.
T3:17.8 to you. The “time” of the Holy Spirit has now ended because the  time of illusion is now called to an end. What is finite has an end
T3:17.8 What is finite has an end point and this is that end point for the  time of illusion. The return of Christ, or your ability and
T3:17.8 of Truth rather than the house of illusion, is what will end the  time of illusion. Just as the truth is the truth and illusion is
T3:17.8 we speak of here is the same as the end we speak of here. The  time of the Holy Spirit, or the time in which communication was
T3:17.8 as the end we speak of here. The time of the Holy Spirit, or the  time in which communication was needed between the illusion and the
T3:19.9 There is no longer any  time to waste on such illusions. The thought system of the truth sees
T3:19.14 anything at all about the nature of who you are. This is why no more  time can be wasted and why so many are being called in the strongest
T3:19.15 and bid them join you in the reality of the truth. But in this  time of Christ, a new time, a time without parallel or comparison,
T3:19.15 you in the reality of the truth. But in this time of Christ, a new  time, a time without parallel or comparison, this will not be
T3:19.15 the reality of the truth. But in this time of Christ, a new time, a  time without parallel or comparison, this will not be possible. It
T3:20.1 By saying that there is no longer any  time to be wasted on illusion we are saying that you will no longer
T3:20.1 to be wasted on illusion we are saying that you will no longer serve  time but that time will serve you. Time was wasted on illusion and so
T3:20.1 illusion we are saying that you will no longer serve time but that  time will serve you. Time was wasted on illusion and so but seemed to
T3:20.1 that you will no longer serve time but that time will serve you.  Time was wasted on illusion and so but seemed to become a master that
T3:20.1 and so but seemed to become a master that made of you a slave. Now  time must be thought of in a new way, a way that has to do with
T3:20.2 in regards to the learning of the truth. As this is all that  time is for, and all that time is but a measurement of, it rightly
T3:20.2 learning of the truth. As this is all that time is for, and all that  time is but a measurement of, it rightly follows that learning can

T3:21.6 because it is attached to a person. A person is a being born into  time, a being whose existence began in time and will end in time.
T3:21.6 A person is a being born into time, a being whose existence began in  time and will end in time.
T3:21.6 into time, a being whose existence began in time and will end in  time.
T3:21.7 and the true Self to exist together is for the truth to be lived in  time. In order for the truth to be lived in time you must forget your
T3:21.7 the truth to be lived in time. In order for the truth to be lived in  time you must forget your uncertainty and be certain of the truth.
T3:21.18 existence to seem to have more of a dualistic nature for a short  time while you carry observance forward into observance of your
T3:21.18 personal self. As was said at the beginning of this Treatise, by the  time the learning of this Treatise is complete, the personal self
T3:21.21 While this has been called the  time of Christ, it is obviously no longer the time of Jesus Christ.
T3:21.21 has been called the time of Christ, it is obviously no longer the  time of Jesus Christ. My time came and my time ended. The time when a
T3:21.21 of Christ, it is obviously no longer the time of Jesus Christ. My  time came and my time ended. The time when a single baby born of a
T3:21.21 is obviously no longer the time of Jesus Christ. My time came and my  time ended. The time when a single baby born of a virgin mother could
T3:21.21 longer the time of Jesus Christ. My time came and my time ended. The  time when a single baby born of a virgin mother could change the
T3:22.12 the dualistic world in which you have lived, a world wherein a lag  time exists between what is and what will be. You may have, upon
T3:22.14 where what is, is separated from what will be by your effort and the  time that it will take you to, through your effort, create the
T3:22.15 The creative tension existed not only as a product of the duality of  time, but also as a product of distrust. It was a tension that
T4:1.8 As is clearly being seen amid many school systems in the current  time, the choice to not learn what is taught in school, when taken up
T4:1.11 is the same question that has been asked throughout the existence of  time. Some have chosen to come to know themselves and God directly.
T4:1.11 All are chosen and so it could not be otherwise. But at the same  time, it must be seen that your choice matters in time, even if all
T4:1.11 But at the same time, it must be seen that your choice matters in  time, even if all will make the same choice eventually.
T4:1.13 you might just be able to achieve what others have not; that this  time might just be different than any other time. Even as you begin
T4:1.13 have not; that this time might just be different than any other  time. Even as you begin to tentatively let this excitement grow, your
T4:1.13 ago, by countless souls more worthy than you, and ushered in the  time of heaven on earth and the end of suffering long ago? Could many
T4:1.14 and uncertainty, your fear of believing in yourself and in this  time as the time to end all time. There must be something different
T4:1.14 your fear of believing in yourself and in this time as the  time to end all time. There must be something different about this
T4:1.14 of believing in yourself and in this time as the time to end all  time. There must be something different about this time, the
T4:1.14 time to end all time. There must be something different about this  time, the capabilities of those existing within it. It must be your
T4:1.14 or technology, your advanced mental abilities, or even your leisure  time that has opened up this opportunity. The only alternative would
T4:1.14 alternative would seem to be that this must be simply the chosen  time and you the chosen people. If the chosen time had been two
T4:1.14 be simply the chosen time and you the chosen people. If the chosen  time had been two thousand years ago, life would have been different
T4:1.16 same as saying the truth exists within you. It is in this way that  time is not real and will no longer be real to you as you come to
T4:1.17 The difference between this  time and the time that has but seemed to have gone before has already
T4:1.17 The difference between this time and the  time that has but seemed to have gone before has already been stated
T4:1.17 gone before has already been stated as the difference between the  time of the Holy Spirit and the time of Christ. This has also been
T4:1.17 stated as the difference between the time of the Holy Spirit and the  time of Christ. This has also been restated as the difference between
T4:1.17 of Christ. This has also been restated as the difference between the  time of learning through contrast and the time of learning through
T4:1.17 the difference between the time of learning through contrast and the  time of learning through observation. It is further stated here as
T4:1.18 choosing you by choosing God. This is all the chosen people are in  time—those who have chosen God as God has chosen them. That you
T4:1.18 —the means of Christ-consciousness, is what has ushered in the new  time.
T4:1.20 religions and varying sets of beliefs that, in the way of the  time—the way of learning through contrast—provided contrast
T4:1.20 learning did occur and has continued to occur even unto this  time. You have learned much of the nature of the truth by seeing what
T4:1.22 called you to the limits of the state of consciousness that was the  time of the Holy Spirit. This limit acted upon you as a catalyst to
T4:1.23 yearning has driven them to and thought, incorrectly, that the new  time that is here is the end of the days of innocence. You may have
T4:1.24 experience. Many not yet grown to maturity have been born into the  time of Christ, and do not fit within the time or the consciousness
T4:1.24 have been born into the time of Christ, and do not fit within the  time or the consciousness of the Holy Spirit.
T4:1.25 For a short  time, an overlap is occurring during which those unable to allow
T4:1.26 Those born into the  time of Christ will settle for nothing less than the truth and will
T4:1.27 Let me repeat that during the  time of the Holy Spirit, some were able to come to know themselves
T4:1.27 or experience. It means that the last generation born into the  time of the Holy Spirit will live out their lives and that soon all
T4:1.27 and that soon all who remain on earth will be those born into the  time of Christ.
T4:2.4 no Way or path or process back to God and Self before me. It was the  time of man wandering in the wilderness. I came as a representation
T4:2.4 Self. Jesus the man was the intermediary who ushered in the  time of the Holy Spirit by calling the Holy Spirit to possess the
T4:2.5 and relationship is still The Way and The Way has come into the  time of its fullness.
T4:2.7 it did not exist; that there are others living among you in this  time who will not become aware of their true nature does not mean
T4:2.7 the truth of all of your brothers and sisters from the beginning of  time until the end of time. Any text that tells you that you or those
T4:2.7 brothers and sisters from the beginning of time until the end of  time. Any text that tells you that you or those of your kind or time
T4:2.7 of time. Any text that tells you that you or those of your kind or  time are more or better than any other is not speaking the truth.
T4:2.8 if you were to see into the eyes and hearts of any human from any  time with true vision, you would see the accomplished Self there.
T4:2.9 you familiar with the Bible, upon hearing words such as the end of  time or the fullness of time, think of the predictions of the
T4:2.9 Bible, upon hearing words such as the end of time or the fullness of  time, think of the predictions of the biblical end of time. I speak
T4:2.9 fullness of time, think of the predictions of the biblical end of  time. I speak of this because it is in your awareness and because
T4:2.9 is in your awareness and because many false interpretations of this  time as a time of judgment and of separating the chosen people from
T4:2.9 awareness and because many false interpretations of this time as a  time of judgment and of separating the chosen people from all others
T4:2.10 not consistent with the idea of unity. If you proceed into this new  time thinking that this new time will separate you from others, or
T4:2.10 of unity. If you proceed into this new time thinking that this new  time will separate you from others, or cause you, as the chosen, to
T4:2.10 chosen, to be separate, you will not become fully aware of the new  time. Full awareness of the new is what this Treatise seeks to
T4:2.12 that others will soon do the same, and that those who follow in  time will do so more easily, with less effort, and with even greater
T4:2.12 success. They may consider themselves “better than” for a moment in  time, but those who do will be bitterly disappointed as their moment
T4:2.14 past, to believe that you are chosen to be the pioneers into a new  time without believing that you are special. This is one of the many
T4:2.21 that exists with you, including the days that make up your life in  time and space. Observing what is unites you with the present in that
T4:2.23 that feel real with like-minded associates for brief periods of  time, but still essentially seeing yourself moving through life
T4:2.28 union is what differentiated me from my brothers and sisters at the  time of my life on earth. Because my state of consciousness, a state
T4:3.6 is joyful, effortless, and full of love. For every being existing in  time there is also an unnatural state of being. Both states of being
T4:3.6 brought a child into a fearful world, became subject to the tests of  time. Thus did the world become a world of effort with all things in
T4:3.13 Man has striven since the beginning of  time to be done with the separated state of a being of form, and at
T4:3.13 be done with the separated state of a being of form, and at the same  time to hang on to life; not realizing that what exists in form does
T4:4.4 The passing of a parent was seen, particularly historically, as the  time of the child of the parent coming into his or her inheritance or
T4:4.4 of the child of the parent coming into his or her inheritance or  time of fullness. The power and prestige, the earthly wealth of the
T4:4.5 of the reasons that I came in the form of the “son of God.” In the  time in which I lived, the idea of inheritance was an even stronger
T4:4.9 Treatise is called “A Treatise on the New.” There has not been a  time on Earth in which the inheritance of God the Father was
T4:4.9 of God the Father was accepted, save by me. This is why this  time is spoken of as the time of fullness. It is the time during
T4:4.9 was accepted, save by me. This is why this time is spoken of as the  time of fullness. It is the time during which you have within your
T4:4.9 is why this time is spoken of as the time of fullness. It is the  time during which you have within your awareness the ability to come
T4:4.9 which you have within your awareness the ability to come into your  time of fullness by accepting the inheritance of your Father. You
T4:5.2 form the orchestra and chorus of creation. You might think of your  time here as that of being apprentice musicians. You must learn or
T4:5.11 you are or who you think you are. You do not die to choice. At the  time of death you are assisted in ways not formerly possible to you
T4:5.12 a collective choice as one body, one consciousness, to end the  time of the intermediary and to begin to learn directly, you are
T4:5.13 hell. Others as all or nothing. Many of you have thought of it as a  time of judgment. But I tell you truly; it is no different than the
T4:5.13 time of judgment. But I tell you truly; it is no different than the  time that is upon you right now. The afterlife has simply been a time
T4:5.13 the time that is upon you right now. The afterlife has simply been a  time of increased choice because it has been a time of increased
T4:5.13 has simply been a time of increased choice because it has been a  time of increased awareness. Loosed of the body and the body’s
T4:5.13 choice has been revealed to those having experienced death. At that  time it is your judgment of yourself and your ability to believe in
T4:5.13 your life will continue. The same is true right now! For this is the  time of Christ and thus of your ability to choose
T4:5.13 death. Being loosed of the body by death was the chosen means of the  time of the intermediary, the chosen means of attaining
T4:5.13 and direct revelation. The elevation of the personal self in this  time of Christ can be the new choice.
T4:6.4 In this  time of Christ, this time of direct revelation and direct sharing,
T4:6.4 In this time of Christ, this  time of direct revelation and direct sharing, the probable future you
T4:6.8 You have the unequalled opportunity now, because you exist in the  Time of Christ, to directly share Christ-consciousness and thus
T4:6.8 You can pass on the inheritance you accept in this fullness of  time. In this time of unity, dedicate all thought to unity. Accept no
T4:6.8 pass on the inheritance you accept in this fullness of time. In this  time of unity, dedicate all thought to unity. Accept no separation.
T4:6.8 Accept all choices. Thus are all chosen in the fullness of  time.
T4:7.2 That you are living in the  time of Christ does not mean that you will automatically realize
T4:7.2 automatically realize Christ-consciousness, just as living in the  time of the Holy Spirit did not mean that you would automatically
T4:7.2 of the spirit that was your intermediary. But just as during the  time of the Holy Spirit, your understanding of your Self and God grew
T4:7.2 through the indirect means that were available to you, during the  time of Christ, your understanding of your Self and God cannot help
T4:7.2 the direct and observable means now available. Just as in the  time of the Holy Spirit the spirit was available to all as
T4:7.2 Spirit the spirit was available to all as intermediary, during the  time of Christ, Christ-consciousness is available to all.
T4:7.3 will seem to lie before you and your brothers and sisters in this  time. The understanding of the unity that creates and sustains all
T4:7.3 now be as close to the surface of consciousness as was, during the  time of the Holy Spirit, the understanding that man is imbued with
T4:8.1 separate “you” or some species without form who at some point in  time chose to express love in physical form, and so began this
T4:8.5 lives in form. It has a starting point from which it grows into its  time of fullness. Creation on the scale at which God creates produced
T4:8.9 rebel against the learning that was needed in order to come into the  time of fullness of a being able to express itself in form, never
T4:9.4 But now the  time is upon you to leave learned works behind in favor of
T4:9.4 behind in favor of observation, vision and revelation. Now is the  time to leave behind study for imagining, envisioning, and desire.
T4:9.4 behind study for imagining, envisioning, and desire. Now is the  time to move out of the time of becoming who you are to the time of
T4:9.4 envisioning, and desire. Now is the time to move out of the  time of becoming who you are to the time of being who you are.
T4:9.4 is the time to move out of the time of becoming who you are to the  time of being who you are.
T4:9.5 You have felt this  time coming. You have realized that your learning has reached an end
T4:9.6 of a promise that has surely been made! Rejoice that the new  time is here and be ready to embrace it as it embraces you!
T4:9.7 ready finally to be loosed of the bounds of the personal self. This  time of concentration on the self is unheralded in history. It is
T4:9.9 sisters in this next phase of the journey, the journey out of the  time of learning that will usher in the fullness of time.
T4:9.9 out of the time of learning that will usher in the fullness of  time.
T4:10.1 to becoming a true student, and to now leading you beyond the  time of being a student to the realization of your accomplishment.
T4:10.2 learning you will meet resistance and realize, for perhaps the first  time, that learning is what your entire life has been about. You
T4:10.11 Self of love in form. No longer learning is the revelation that the  time of accomplishment is upon you and the expression of the Self of
T4:10.12 can be learned. It is something that can only be lived. This is the  time of the fulfillment of the lesson of the birds of the air who
T4:10.13 As I said earlier, some will not be willing to move out of the  time of learning. Those who have learned what this Course would teach
T4:12.2 From this  time on, I will respond to you through direct communication or
T4:12.3 At this  time, there is a gathering of pioneers of the new already in
T4:12.8 state. All conditions that were intermediary in nature during the  time of learning, are, during the time of sharing, naturally
T4:12.8 intermediary in nature during the time of learning, are, during the  time of sharing, naturally converted to direct experiences of sharing.
T4:12.9 of students, gather still, and experience sharing directly. If a  time arrives when you no longer feel drawn to these modes of sharing,
T4:12.10 All you must remember now is that the  time of learning is past. While you are still encountering concerns
T4:12.12 soon as he was content within the life of the monastery, that it was  time to once again move out into the world. What he was really saying
T4:12.12 as the sign that one period of learning was over and that it was  time to move on to the next. During the time of learning, this
T4:12.12 was over and that it was time to move on to the next. During the  time of learning, this statement was consistent with learned wisdom.
T4:12.12 this statement was consistent with learned wisdom. During the new  time of sharing, there is no “next phase” of learning for you to move
T4:12.17 I attempted to dislodge much of this learned wisdom during my  time on Earth and man is still puzzling over the meaning of my words.
T4:12.17 on Earth and man is still puzzling over the meaning of my words. The  time for puzzlement is over. Pass on no more of the prevailing
T4:12.19 you to try to remember to turn to the new rather than the old each  time you think you are experiencing uncertainty or lack.
T4:12.28 The individual or singular consciousness that was appropriate to the  time of learning does not continue. Thus the new pattern is one of
T4:12.32 in form are yet to be revealed and shared. This is the  time that is before us, the time of creation of the future, the time
T4:12.32 to be revealed and shared. This is the time that is before us, the  time of creation of the future, the time of the creation of a future
T4:12.32 the time that is before us, the time of creation of the future, the  time of the creation of a future not based upon the past.
T4:12.33 This  time is before us. Because you are a being still existing in form,
T4:12.33 are a being still existing in form, you still exist in the realm of  time and space. Yet time and space no longer separate us, and the
T4:12.33 in form, you still exist in the realm of time and space. Yet  time and space no longer separate us, and the creation of the design
D:1.9 These anti-ego tendencies are a real danger in this  time. You are not called to selflessness but to Self !
D:1.10 thus elevating the personal self. You have thus been self-less for a  time and the personal self has floundered from this lack of identity.
D:1.10 from this lack of identity. A person could literally die during this  time from lack of identity, lack of cause. To die to the personal
D:1.10 being identity-less. The reign of the ego began during just such a  time of identity-less-ness. You cannot go on in such a way.
D:2.5 doctor, teacher, scientist, priest, or engineer is completed, it is  time for the student to claim a new identity—that of doctor,
D:2.5 To continue to feel a need to learn rather than realizing that the  time of learning has come to an end, would be to not realize
D:2.11 seen as a “successful pattern,” and would be repeated until such a  time as the pattern failed to achieve the successful grade or outcome
D:2.17 example, an example of a system which you believe works most of the  time, and are happy to use to acquire a desired end, but which, when
D:3.6 Duality and contrast are synonymous. In the  time of the Holy Spirit, you learned through contrast. You learned
D:3.6 of love and fear, sickness and health, life and death. In this  time of Christ, such learning is no longer necessary, and so these
D:3.7 declassify all the various aspects of life that were needed in the  time of learning. This is why we began quite truthfully and simply
D:3.23 power is needed for the creation of the Covenant of the New in this  time of Christ.
D:4.2 same, you also are not different. The differences you saw during the  time of learning, differences that made you feel as if each being
D:4.3 It is  time now for this idea to be accepted, for if it is not, you will
D:4.7 the prison system is a very successful deterrent. The thought of  time in prison fills the mind with fear. And yet those who are
D:4.11 confident that you have either seen and learned enough during your  time as a learning being that you accept that a divine design created
D:4.13 recreated and we will talk much more of them and of the creative  time we are now entering. Thus far, we are merely working together to
D:4.18 our divine existence, is now recreating the patterns that served the  time of learning. What was learned in the instant in which you came
D:4.18 this has taken so long or on the suffering that occurred during the  time of learning. This would be like dwelling on the inmate’s life as
D:5.8 as an example here. The ego but seemed to be who you were for a  time. Now that you know who you are in truth, the ego does not
D:5.11 is given. All was given to you to remind you of who you are in the  time of learning that is now passing away. Thus all was given to you
D:5.11 is. Now, as you join with the truth, your representation, in the new  time that is before us, will be what is, in its representation.
D:5.12 Love and the loving patterns given in the  time of learning are all that exist in all you see. But what now will
D:5.12 of those around you comes to an end? What was created to serve the  time of learning, to represent what is and aid you in your return to
D:5.14 In this  time of Christ, we are not called to recreate the “tools” of learning
D:5.20 prison, if you continue to think of your environment, your mind, and  time as a prison, how can it exist in perfect harmony with the
D:5.21 learning will change to help you embrace the acceptance of this new  time of no time. You will wonder how to live in time as a being no
D:5.21 change to help you embrace the acceptance of this new time of no  time. You will wonder how to live in time as a being no longer bound
D:5.21 of this new time of no time. You will wonder how to live in  time as a being no longer bound by time. And I tell you truly, that
D:5.21 You will wonder how to live in time as a being no longer bound by  time. And I tell you truly, that once acceptance of what is is
D:6.1 and this you were told as well. I say this to remind you that the  time of “teaching” like the time of “learning” had its place as well
D:6.1 well. I say this to remind you that the time of “teaching” like the  time of “learning” had its place as well as its methods.
D:6.2 that of comparison, a method that will be used less and less as the  time of learning passes. The thought reversal of which we recently
D:6.2 of which we recently spoke is why I bring this up. During your  time of learning, I used a method of comparison—I compared the real
D:6.2 than let them go in order to embrace true representation. In the  time of learning, you were so entrenched in your false beliefs that
D:6.2 needed to be stated and stated again. But as we enter this new  time of elevated form, these same ideas—ideas that many of you
D:6.5 Like all that was created for the  time of learning, the body was the perfect learning device. Seeing it
D:6.5 Seeing it as such assisted us in bringing about the end of the  time of learning. But now your body—your form—must be seen in a
D:6.9 there were many stories about miracles, both before and after the  time in which I lived. If you were to pose to a scientist whether or
D:6.13 if it has been a false certainty, it served a great purpose in the  time of learning. Discovery has been a grand facilitator of the human
D:6.14 as well as to the creation of something new. For in this  time of revelation, discovery is the new divine pattern that will
D:6.16 Be jubilant rather than hesitant about the  time of discovery that is before you. Calling what you think you know
D:6.22 change the “laws” of the body, the laws you gave the body in the  time of learning, knowing not what the design of the body
D:6.25 The body was, in the  time of learning, representative of a learning being. The ego,
D:6.26 I say changed here because you may remember that change occurs in  time. Outside of time and form your Self has always existed in the
D:6.26 here because you may remember that change occurs in time. Outside of  time and form your Self has always existed in the perfect harmony in
D:6.26 has joined the elevated Self of form, you exist together both in  time and outside of time. Remember, the elevated Self of form will
D:6.26 Self of form, you exist together both in time and outside of  time. Remember, the elevated Self of form will never be all that you
D:6.26 will merely represent one aspect of your wholeness in the field of  time.
D:6.27 elevated Self of form, however, being a form that still exists in  time, must realize the consciousness of the true Self in time. What
D:6.27 exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the true Self in  time. What this means is that the elevated Self of form may still
D:6.27 unity. This is why we have spoken of miracles and of the collapse of  time the miracle is capable of providing. We have redefined the
D:6.28 Form and  time go together. Yet you have been told time is a measurement of
D:6.28 Form and time go together. Yet you have been told  time is a measurement of learning. If you are no longer a learning
D:6.28 of learning. If you are no longer a learning being, for what is  time needed? Time is needed now only for the transformation of the
D:6.28 If you are no longer a learning being, for what is time needed?  Time is needed now only for the transformation of the self from a
D:7.2 is shared. This language was used because you were still, at that  time, a learning being. Now we will adjust our language somewhat to
D:7.3 could be shared at another level, and that levels are a function of  time. We then talked of the integration of levels that collapse time.
D:7.3 of time. We then talked of the integration of levels that collapse  time. This integration of levels is the integration of form and
D:7.3 of form and unity. When Christ-consciousness is sustained,  time will collapse and the sun may not need to rise or set to
D:7.4 Experiences of form take place in  time because experience, too, was designed for learning. Now
D:7.4 too, was designed for learning. Now experience is needed in  time to aid your total acceptance of what you have learned. In order
D:7.5 the embrace and the consciousness of unity and places you outside of  time. In this state, no duality exists. Doing and being are one.
D:7.7 only as a particular self, existing as man or woman in a particular  time in history. Now you are called to discover how to exist in form
D:7.8 while not seeing it as “bound” by the particularity of  time and space. It may still exist in a particular time and place,
D:7.8 particularity of time and space. It may still exist in a particular  time and place, but this is simply the nature of one aspect of what
D:7.15 in hand with the new pattern of discovery, but discovery is less  time bound. Let me explain.
D:7.16 Observation takes place in  time. Even while you have been called to observe what is, what you
D:7.16 what you are observing in form are the representations of what is in  time. Your envisioning too is bound to time and that is why so many
D:7.16 representations of what is in time. Your envisioning too is bound to  time and that is why so many of you think of envisioning as
D:7.16 envisioning as envisioning the future. Envisioning is less bound to  time than is observation because it is not about what your body’s
D:7.18 because they are related to particular forms as they exist in  time. Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity. Time is thus
D:7.18 because they are related to particular forms as they exist in time.  Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity. Time is thus what has
D:7.18 they exist in time. Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity.  Time is thus what has separated the self that exists in form from the
D:7.18 accepted existence as a non-particular being in a state outside of  time—you have accepted existence as a new Self, the Self of
D:7.19 Discovery is not bound by  time as it is an ongoing aspect of creation. As you were told in “A
D:7.21 matter, and of the creature’s perception of its own experience in  time. This time-bound evolution is really adaptation. It occurs in
D:7.23 Everyone knows, in this  time of Christ, that the end of the old way is near and that the new
D:7.23 than adaptation, and evolution moves with them. But evolution in  time is part of the old that needs to be left behind. It is a
D:7.23 of the old that needs to be left behind. It is a provision of the  time of learning that allows the learning being to learn at his or
D:7.23 to learn at his or her own pace and to pass this learning on in  time.
D:7.25 of fear we leave behind as we abandon ideas of evolution in  time and proceed to an awareness of how the elevated Self of form can
D:7.25 how the elevated Self of form can replace the laws of evolution in  time with the laws of transformation outside of time.
D:7.25 laws of evolution in time with the laws of transformation outside of  time.
D:7.26 all that you are. The dot of your body is all that is bound by  time. What transformation outside of time asks you to do is to see
D:7.26 body is all that is bound by time. What transformation outside of  time asks you to do is to see the body as but this one, small, aspect
D:7.26 and others, you have learned to view your body in the field of  time. This will be helpful now as you begin to imagine the “more”
D:7.26 that exists beyond the body’s boundary and beyond the boundary of  time and particularity.
D:7.27 This circle in which you have placed your body is not a circle of  time and space. It is not a circle that can be drawn around where you
D:8.1 of the wider circle. In this area of the wider circle, there is no  time, no space, no particularity. It is an area of unlimited freedom.
D:8.3 a natural ability or talent that existed in some form prior to the  time of learning. We concentrate on this idea merely as an idea and
D:8.3 in you that you have experienced something that existed prior to the  time of learning. And that this something was quite wonderful.
D:8.4 You might think of this ability that existed prior to the  time of learning as coming from the content of the wider circle of
D:9.12 the natural abilities you discovered existed within you prior to the  time of learning, ideas are also discoveries that you make,
D:10.2 Learning is about the transfer of knowledge that was gained in the  time of learning, through the process of learning. Notice the
D:10.4 of these givens, since that expression exists in the realm of  time and space and involves the work and time of your form in your
D:10.4 exists in the realm of time and space and involves the work and  time of your form in your form’s separate reality, is not of union
D:10.7 In this  time of Christ, discovery is about acceptance of your true way of
D:10.7 of your true way of knowing, a way that existed prior to the  time of learning and that has always existed. When put into practice
D:11.6 achieved what you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a  time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now
D:11.11 not live from this belief is insane for reasons already enumerated  time and time again. What prevents this belief from becoming an

D:12.16 have experienced the fading of your certainty about this truth over  time. It may have been your inability to convey this truth, another’s
D:13.1 There is no danger, in this  time, that you will know the truth and then discover that you were

D:13.7 those of the past because you are living in the time of Christ, a  time when no intermediaries are needed or required. Thus you are not
D:13.8 join with others who are experiencing the expanding awareness of the  time of Christ, and you will begin to see the evidence that things
D:14.4 in the discovery that lies beyond the body and mind, form and  time. You will need to put into practice the suspension of belief
D:14.10 paves the way much as each step of learning that was needed in the  time of learning paved the way for the next and then the next. But
D:14.12 and so the idea of becoming that has been with humankind throughout  time must signal a recognition that what you are is not complete, has
D:14.15 begins with awareness of what is beyond body and mind, form and  time. It proceeds to this awareness being accepted, adopted as an
D:14.15 act of becoming the elevated Self of form. You are thus entering the  time of becoming, the time of becoming the new you which must precede
D:14.15 Self of form. You are thus entering the time of becoming, the  time of becoming the new you which must precede creation of the new
D:14.17 This wholeness of being is what lies beyond body and mind, form and  time. Becoming the elevated Self of form is becoming whole, and will

D:15.1 principles are like unto the patterns that were created for your  time of learning and that will be applied anew to the creation of new
D:15.1 will be applied anew to the creation of new patterns for the new  time that is upon us.
D:15.3 the life force of creation and of being, both in unity and in  time. By being you are in movement. By being you are an expression of

D:15.21 conditions of learning. Why? Because they are no longer needed. The  time of learning has ended. When this time of becoming has ended, the
D:15.21 they are no longer needed. The time of learning has ended. When this  time of becoming has ended, the conditions that allow your acceptance
D:16.2 exist in unity. Creation occurs in each of us, seemingly one at a  time. Creation is our coming into our true identity, and is the
D:16.4 place as separate steps. This is so because of the condition of  time. Once these principles are unified, time will have ended just as
D:16.4 because of the condition of time. Once these principles are unified,  time will have ended just as time was once begun.
D:16.4 Once these principles are unified, time will have ended just as  time was once begun.
D:16.6 wholeness. Love cannot be learned, and so has stood apart from the  time of learning. Being could be learned here, because it was not yet
D:16.9 apart from Creation, you cannot. But you can, while existing in  time and form, choose to stand apart from movement, being, and

D:16.10 in “A Treatise on the New”, that “Now is the time to move out of the  time of becoming who you are to the time of being who you are,” it
D:16.10 is the time to move out of the time of becoming who you are to the  time of being who you are,” it was not said that this time of

D:16.13 elevated Self of form who you are in the process of becoming. This  time of becoming is the time in between your awareness of and access
D:16.13 who you are in the process of becoming. This time of becoming is the  time in between your awareness of and access to Christ-consciousness

D:16.14 In your  time of directly experiencing the movement, being, and expression of
D:16.15 of becoming is to realize that an in-between exists between the  time of learning and the time of being the elevated Self of form;
D:16.15 that an in-between exists between the time of learning and the  time of being the elevated Self of form; that times still exist in
D:16.16 all of your former ideas about yourself, all of the patterns of the  time of learning, all of the moments in which you feel an inability
D:16.19 are but sensations that remain, like memories of childhood. This  time of becoming is a time of coming to acceptance of them as what
D:16.19 that remain, like memories of childhood. This time of becoming is a  time of coming to acceptance of them as what they are—images. This
D:16.19 time of coming to acceptance of them as what they are—images. This  time of becoming is a time of coming to acceptance that they are not
D:16.19 of them as what they are—images. This time of becoming is a  time of coming to acceptance that they are not real. They are no more
D:16.20 The  time of becoming is a time of letting these images be without
D:16.20 The time of becoming is a  time of letting these images be without reacting to them. It is a
D:16.20 a time of letting these images be without reacting to them. It is a  time of coming to no longer “hold” these images in your mind and
D:16.20 to no longer “hold” these images in your mind and heart. It is a  time of letting them first cease to affect you, and then of letting
D:16.21 are false images, and when you retain them you do not allow for the  time of learning to be replaced with the only replacement that will

D:17.2 The series build to a climax, to what, during the  time of evolution, might have been called evolutionary leaps.
D:17.3 Are you willing to claim it? Are you willing to claim it in form and  time?
D:17.4 Can you understand that what you claim in form and  time was always yours?
D:17.7 offer up your glory and call it down from heaven, both at the same  time.
D:17.11 has been provided, the journey taken. You are present. Now is the  time for your response.
D:17.14 achieved what you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a  time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now
D:17.25 This is why you have been told the  time of parables, or stories, has ended. This is why you have been
D:Day1.6 you have arrived here and left behind the state of the initiate, the  time of waiting. You have chosen. You are merely asked now to look at
D:Day1.14 of the holy men and women who walked the way of the world since my  time learned, accepted, and lived the teachings that have brought you
D:Day1.14 the world would be a different place. Have I not called you to a new  time in which the conditions of learning exist no more? In which the
D:Day1.24 of your true Self and true home, in a form that will take you beyond  time to eternity.
D:Day1.25 history proceeds with gaps only waiting to be fulfilled in current  time, so too is it with the story of creation.
D:Day1.27 my baptism and my acknowledgment as the Son of God, and preceded my  time of living as my Self in the world. So too does it with you. You
D:Day2.1 of your Self is acceptance of your inheritance. Now is the  time to come into full acceptance of the human self as well as the
D:Day2.1 acceptance of the human self as well as the Self of unity. It is  time for the final merging of the two into one Self, the elevated
D:Day2.4 This is the moment of fulfillment and desire coming together, the  time in which to realize “it was all worth it.”
D:Day2.5 This is the  time of revelation of meaning. You who have so long striven to give
D:Day2.11 Now is the  time for acceptance, even of these actions that you would rather not
D:Day2.14 been thoroughly discussed earlier. You have all been through the  time of tenderness, the time that preceded your giving and receiving
D:Day2.14 earlier. You have all been through the time of tenderness, the  time that preceded your giving and receiving of forgiveness, your
D:Day2.17 has been a constant companion of all those who have lived since my  time. It is difficult for you to believe that by following me you
D:Day2.18 does not mean that my life did not happen, that it did not occur in  time and space, just as yours is occurring now in time and space.
D:Day2.18 did not occur in time and space, just as yours is occurring now in  time and space. What this means is that what occurs in time and space
D:Day2.18 now in time and space. What this means is that what occurs in  time and space is symbolic, that it is representative of something
D:Day2.21 appearance of my form in the world, but that mainly occur during my  time of maturity. These accounts do not stress the time of childhood
D:Day2.21 occur during my time of maturity. These accounts do not stress the  time of childhood as it is a time commonly held to be one of
D:Day2.21 These accounts do not stress the time of childhood as it is a  time commonly held to be one of innocence. The accounts of my
D:Day2.23 thus began with the recognition of who I Am, as does yours. This  time was followed by my “example life,” a life that began with the
D:Day2.23 take it away once and for all. We will crucify it upon the cross of  time and space, bury it, so that it need be no more, and demonstrate
D:Day2.25 Here, then, is where you need to make the choice that those in my  time could not make, the choice to end suffering. This is the choice
D:Day3.2 What was it that was “taught” to in the  time of learning? It was the mind. Thus, your mind has been trained
D:Day3.2 learning might be seen as the way learning was meant to be, the  time of this pure learning has grown shorter and shorter while the
D:Day3.2 time of this pure learning has grown shorter and shorter while the  time of enforced learning has grown more entrenched.
D:Day3.9 and thus a life of limits of which you are more accepting. But given  time to consider such an idea, you are likely to become more and more
D:Day3.12 all ideas of lack, an idea you so thoroughly learned during the  time of learning that letting it go, even now, still torments you
D:Day3.13 This is the basic fallacy that the  time of learning supported. The idea of “if this, then that.” The
D:Day3.22 aspirations of wealth, and replaced them with ideas of having more  time, more fulfilling work, simpler pleasures, and yet you still see
D:Day3.27 at ease, for you are not called to sacrifice, as you have been told  time and time again. I do not ask you to give up what you desire, but
D:Day3.27 for you are not called to sacrifice, as you have been told time and  time again. I do not ask you to give up what you desire, but to
D:Day3.30 so many of you are thankful for your good health while at the same  time dreading the disease that may at any point take it from you,
D:Day3.35 You have been told that the  time of the Holy Spirit, the time of a need for an intermediary
D:Day3.35 You have been told that the time of the Holy Spirit, the  time of a need for an intermediary between yourself and God, is gone.
D:Day3.38 What you have “learned,” and since the  time of learning had revealed to you, is a new way, the way of direct
D:Day3.50 value. You may have many good and even inspired ideas within this  time. You may feel as if you are on the right track, that through the
D:Day4.1 brings attention to these areas most incorrectly influenced by the  time of learning. Remember here all the “arguments” that I needed to
D:Day4.5 has been with you and within you. Although the divine design of the  time of learning is being recreated, the ceaseless pattern of
D:Day4.7 learning of childhood. Learning begins long before the onset of the  time of language that constitutes your ideas about what it means to
D:Day4.16 realize fairly quickly that my life challenged the world-view of the  time and that it is still challenging the world-view of your time.
D:Day4.16 of the time and that it is still challenging the world-view of your  time. Why might this be?
D:Day4.20 In the  time of learning, however, it was natural that my example life was
D:Day4.30 Thinking, in this  time beyond learning, could be rightly seen as a constraint you but
D:Day4.31 to abundance and all the treasure that will come with the end of the  time of learning. You, on the other hand, are thinking, yearning,
D:Day4.31 on such as these, you impose a function unnatural to this  time of Christ-consciousness upon this time. It is as if you ask to
D:Day4.31 a function unnatural to this time of Christ-consciousness upon this  time. It is as if you ask to see clearly and then hold your hands
D:Day4.34 temptations and the new. You realize that this is the purpose of our  time together here even though you have not put this purpose into
D:Day4.35 just a little more and reach heaven. You thus may think of this  time on the mountain as a time of getting in touch with your own
D:Day4.35 reach heaven. You thus may think of this time on the mountain as a  time of getting in touch with your own access to God, your own access
D:Day4.35 there you will find this access, this portal to all that lies beyond  time and space, to all that exists in the place of unity.
D:Day4.36 We talked earlier of this as a  time of fulfillment and desire. We acknowledged that your desire is
D:Day4.36 that your desire is stronger than ever before. Now is the  time to focus on this desire and fulfillment, to stretch this desire
D:Day4.41 temptations, the first real choice of Christ-consciousness, of the  time beyond learning.
D:Day4.49 of being fearless, you will know this, and you will pass through the  time of coming to acceptance again and again until you are ready. You
D:Day4.49 you are ready. You cannot fail but can only delay. For some the  time of delay has passed. For those who linger in the time of
D:Day4.49 For some the time of delay has passed. For those who linger in the  time of acceptance, there is reason for this as well.
D:Day4.51 is what you are here coming to know once again, which is why the  time of fear, and along with it the time of learning, can cease to be.
D:Day4.51 once again, which is why the time of fear, and along with it the  time of learning, can cease to be.
D:Day4.52 I have not so directly linked fear and the  time of learning before, but now you need to see their connection,
D:Day4.54 there is still anything that can hold you back. This is what the  time of acceptance was meant to show you! Nothing can hold you back
D:Day4.55 You are asked but to accept your own homecoming. To leave behind the  time of wandering, seeking, learning. To leave behind fear for the
D:Day4.56 it to. It does not come at the end but at the beginning of our  time together for a reason. This is simply because this choice is the
D:Day4.59 discussions still to be had. We are only at the beginning of our  time together.
D:Day5.6 What we have focused on for some  time now is love. Love never changes. It thus is the same for each of
D:Day5.19 Remember that union cannot be learned, for if it could be, the  time of learning would be perpetuated rather than ended.
D:Day6.1 will discuss being the true Self while becoming the true Self—the  time in between your awareness of and access to Christ-consciousness,
D:Day6.1 of becoming is to realize that an in-between exists between the  time of learning and the time of being the elevated Self of form.
D:Day6.1 that an in-between exists between the time of learning and the  time of being the elevated Self of form. This is what our time on
D:Day6.1 and the time of being the elevated Self of form. This is what our  time on this holy mountain is largely comprised of. We are in an
D:Day6.1 mountain is largely comprised of. We are in an in-between state of  time. We stand at the intersection point of the finite and the
D:Day6.2 While you know this is the focus of our  time together, few, if any of you, feel as if you have truly taken
D:Day6.3 of the difference you have chosen, we thus must address this  time so that any confusion it seems to be causing will not delay your
D:Day6.4 we will return to this example. We have spoken of becoming as the  time of movement, being, and expression coming together. We have
D:Day6.6 art? I choose this particular example to address this particular  time of being in-between. Let us consider the creation of a piece of
D:Day6.7 At one  time the creation of a piece of music is only an idea in the mind and
D:Day6.7 Some collaboration might take place to get it just right. By the  time the artist has completed the piece of music she began, it may
D:Day6.8 may come because the artist knows it is “good enough” to deserve the  time and attention, or the commitment may come as a recognition that
D:Day6.17 elevation can be postponed, put off, or can wait for some convenient  time. Quite the contrary. We are having our dialogue on the holy
D:Day6.20 They were temptations of the world, of the normal, daily life of my  time. They were attempts to distract me from my purpose, to change my
D:Day6.24 a teacher and become a companion. Would you desire to prolong your  time as an apprentice by being removed from the performance of your
D:Day6.30 here is that you do not. What you are going to realize from this  time of seeming difficulty is an end to difficulty and the growth of
D:Day6.30 who you are in any situation in which you find yourself. There is no  time to wait while you learn, or think you learn, the qualities that
D:Day6.32 it was replaced by acceptance. The conditions, however, of this  time of acceptance are not the conditions of the time of learning,
D:Day6.32 however, of this time of acceptance are not the conditions of the  time of learning, and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the
D:Day6.32 of learning, and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the  time of learning truly is behind you.
D:Day6.33 Let us speak now of the conditions of the  time of acceptance, for these will cheer you.
D:Day7.2 Denial of yourself was the precondition that set the stage for the  time of learning. The time of learning would not have been needed had
D:Day7.2 the precondition that set the stage for the time of learning. The  time of learning would not have been needed had you not denied your
D:Day7.3 Acceptance of your Self is the precondition for the  time of acceptance. You are no longer denying your Self. You are no
D:Day7.4 Life is now supported. Support is thus a condition of the  time of acceptance.
D:Day7.5 were supported, the idea of learning that you accepted during the  time of learning was not one of support but one of effort. You must
D:Day7.6 from fear will have a major transformative effect on form in this  time of acceptance. Regeneration is a condition of the time of
D:Day7.6 form in this time of acceptance. Regeneration is a condition of the  time of acceptance.
D:Day7.7 Another condition of the  time of acceptance that will be of great service to you now is that
D:Day7.7 now is that of the different relationship that you will have with  time. This is a time of convergence, intersection, and pass-through
D:Day7.7 the different relationship that you will have with time. This is a  time of convergence, intersection, and pass-through of the finite and
D:Day7.7 intersection, and pass-through of the finite and the infinite, of  time and no time. Time has not yet ceased to be, but as you are in a
D:Day7.7 and pass-through of the finite and the infinite, of time and no  time. Time has not yet ceased to be, but as you are in a state of
D:Day7.7 pass-through of the finite and the infinite, of time and no time.  Time has not yet ceased to be, but as you are in a state of
D:Day7.7 without. As you let go of time’s hold on you, it will let go of you.  Time will seem to expand but will actually be contracting into
D:Day7.7 seem to expand but will actually be contracting into nothingness.  Time is replaced by presence, by your ability to exist in the here
D:Day7.8 Again let me remind you that you are in an in-between  time. Thus these conditions I have spoken of and those I have yet to
D:Day7.9 of fear that led the body to exhibit the conditions of fear in the  time of learning. Thus it is the mind’s acceptance of love that will
D:Day7.9 love that will lead the body to exhibit the effects of love in the  time of acceptance.
D:Day7.10 A further condition of the  time of acceptance is that of expansion. The singular self you once
D:Day7.11 Conditions of the  time of acceptance are conditions of creation and include those we
D:Day7.15 Access to unity is a phrase that will only be used in this in-between  time. You have always existed in unity and once this is fully
D:Day7.16 you and sustained within Christ-consciousness, the conditions of the  time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of learning, will
D:Day7.16 the conditions of the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the  time of learning, will pass. There are no conditions in the state of
D:Day7.17 There will be, however, a new stage following the  time of acceptance in which the elevated Self of form will be created
D:Day7.18 about now is the present. It is here, in this present and given  time on the mountain that you must realize that the conditions of the
D:Day7.18 on the mountain that you must realize that the conditions of the  time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of learning,
D:Day7.18 the conditions of the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the  time of learning, arise from within. Life has always existed within
D:Day7.18 from within. Life has always existed within the conditions of the  time of acceptance. The conditions of the time of learning were but
D:Day7.18 the conditions of the time of acceptance. The conditions of the  time of learning were but imposed conditions that also arose from
D:Day7.19 The conditions of the  time of acceptance that we have spoken of are thus not new
D:Day7.19 learning and the imposition, from within, of the conditions of the  time of learning.
D:Day7.20 The condition of the  time of acceptance that will most clearly reveal to you your status
D:Day8.1 of removing yourself from normal life. Even the conditions of the  time of acceptance may not have cheered you fully. Now, with the
D:Day8.1 have cheered you fully. Now, with the ideas of the conditions of the  time of acceptance fresh in your minds and hearts, let’s return to
D:Day8.8 now. There will be many things within your life that will take some  time to change, but many others that can change instantly through
D:Day8.17 there has been a reason for this discussion coming so late in our  time together. To accept the feelings of the self of illusion would
D:Day8.20 for yourself, thus the only “standard” that is consistent with the  time of acceptance is that of acceptance.
D:Day8.21 the misdirection of the past if you accept your feelings in present  time and begin to be aware of your natural ability to respond truly
D:Day8.21 to respond truly because you have accepted your feelings in present  time. This is a recognition that by being in the present you know
D:Day8.26 have experienced will not last because you will not be choosing the  time of acceptance.
D:Day8.27 I have called this  time both the time of unity and the time of acceptance because you
D:Day8.27 I have called this time both the  time of unity and the time of acceptance because you cannot only
D:Day8.27 I have called this time both the time of unity and the  time of acceptance because you cannot only focus on unity when you
D:Day8.27 It is the bypassing of this “how to” function—a function of the  time of learning—that we are heading toward.
D:Day8.29 not the new. This is thinking comprised of the time-delay of the  time of learning—of a time when you used your feelings, opinions,
D:Day8.29 thinking comprised of the time-delay of the time of learning—of a  time when you used your feelings, opinions, and judgments
D:Day9.5 This confidence is what must precede true certainty in this  time of elevation of the self of form. The certainty that arises from
D:Day9.12 your ideal image, no matter how it was formed, is a product of the  time of learning. It became an image in your mind, and maybe even
D:Day9.13 This ideal image is intimately related with the  time of learning in another way as well. It is the epitome of
D:Day9.15 As with most goals of the  time of learning, it was an ego-centered goal, a carrot of
D:Day9.16 to the learning that would return you to your true identity. But the  time for such tools is over.
D:Day9.22 of their difference, to the world, but hold it in waiting for such a  time as the ideal is reached.
D:Day9.33 your acceptance of yourself as you are, the real challenge of this  time, begins to grow and to build your confidence. Unity and your
D:Day10.5 Realize that in the  time of learning, you felt a need for your doubt just as you felt a
D:Day10.12 form and while it was the perfect vehicle for learning in the  time of learning, it is now being transformed into the perfect
D:Day10.12 work with what has been in a new way, and as you all know from the  time of learning, it is often more difficult to become adept in doing
D:Day10.21 I have spoken with you throughout this  time as the man Jesus so that you realize that man and
D:Day10.21 be joined. That you, as man or woman, existing in this particular  time and space, can join with Christ-consciousness. You can be
D:Day10.22 have been told since the beginning of this Course that this is the  time of the second coming of Christ. What we have just discussed is
D:Day10.25 discussion of unity and relationship, let me spend my final  time with you as the man Jesus talking more of feelings.
D:Day10.32 When speaking of the many issues facing your world in this  time, we are speaking of situations that would seem to be extreme and
D:Day10.35 Although I need no awareness of the issues facing your  time in order to speak to you of such things, I am aware of them. So
D:Day10.35 relationship. What I have often referred to as the urgency of this  time has been partially because of these issues and partially because
D:Day10.35 power have been sought. This is what has occurred. This is the  time at which we stand.
D:Day13.1 The many selves who have come and gone since the beginning of  time now know themselves as the many and the one, the individual and
D:Day14.1 All  time is included in the spacious Self. Acceptance is necessary
D:Day14.13 voice of the many will continue to point the way for only a short  time longer. Thus the voice of the many must be heard as the voice of
D:Day15.7 and making spirit known through form is the difference for which the  time has come. The observation you have practiced has prepared you to
D:Day15.8 of form with spirit is an ongoing aspect of creation. It is thus not  time bound. It did not take place at the birth of creation and then
D:Day15.10 form have practiced and that has never been practiced by many at one  time. It is a major shift because it is not neutral but creative. It
D:Day15.11 of Christ-consciousness. This is an acceptable state for this  time of limited practice with those with whom you are engaged in this
D:Day15.14 dispels the darkness. This is what we are here for. There is no  time to waste and no protracted length of time will be required if
D:Day15.14 are here for. There is no time to waste and no protracted length of  time will be required if your willingness is true.
D:Day15.16 of the One Self with the “one group self.” This is not a  time of being judged or of adopting the beliefs of others but one of
D:Day15.22 slip into observable states of being. There is a purpose for this  time in which both informing and observing, being informed and being
D:Day15.23 yesterday was as nothing to what you know today, while at the same  time, aiding in the realization that what you come to know has always
D:Day15.24 you have not been asked to remove yourself from life during this  time on the mountain, you have been asked to be here and to join with
D:Day15.24 to be here and to join with others here for a purpose. As such, this  time is also a beginning to the practice of realizing and being able
D:Day15.27 You may, thus, find that there is a  time of walking alone approaching, or a time of gathering with many.
D:Day15.27 thus, find that there is a time of walking alone approaching, or a  time of gathering with many. You will realize that you have felt
D:Day15.27 with many. You will realize that you have felt cocooned by the  time on the mountain and by those who have joined you, and that you
D:Day16.9 you must become fully aware of the present. The present is the  time of no time, wholeness, where all that is real and all that was
D:Day16.9 become fully aware of the present. The present is the time of no  time, wholeness, where all that is real and all that was ever real
D:Day16.11 is what you do not want to know. You do not want to know every  time you predetermine, in advance of knowing, what something is or
D:Day17.3 repeating what has been said before? Because we have reached the  time, once again, for you to claim your identity. Although being who
D:Day17.11 Christ-consciousness is your will to know, to be, and to express. The  time of Christ, and the second coming of Christ, are expressions
D:Day17.12 demonstrated has now been realized, which is why this is called the  time of Christ. The “time” of Christ, whom so many associate with
D:Day17.12 could be taught and learned has been taught and learned. Now it is  time to move beyond what could be taught and learned to what can only
D:Day17.12 to what can only be realized through relationship. Now is the  time of the final revelation of what can be realized, or made real,
D:Day17.13 of the way of Jesus is the stage of interaction with the world, the  time of miracles, the death of the old way and the birth of the new.
D:Day18.2 they return wholeness and will bring about the completion of the  time of Christ. This symbiotic working together will be essential for
D:Day18.3 As has been said, the  time of teaching and learning is over. If the way of Jesus was a way
D:Day18.6 it the claim of all that is temporary. This is why we have spent  time on the idea of sickness and other unwanted states as temporary
D:Day19.8 with God. This is quite literally the function of all in this new  time. When we speak of functions unique to each, we speak of
D:Day19.11 and such ideas as acclaim and obscurity will be no more. But at this  time of transition, both ways are needed to demonstrate the means of
D:Day19.17 of the new to be cast and thus to ride out the many storms of this  time of transition.
D:Day21.10 Realize that this is the aim of our final  time together. Concentrate on making the first transition and on the
D:Day21.10 the reversal of thought that it requires. Thus will you carry this  time forward with you into creation of the new.
D:Day22.1 channeling. Yesterday we spoke of teachers being channels during the  time of learning. It was also noted that you realize that all of life
D:Day22.8 blowing wind. It is there in each and every human being. It is now  time to quit acting as if it is not. It is time to be a channel for
D:Day22.8 human being. It is now time to quit acting as if it is not. It is  time to be a channel for the awareness that exists in every tree and

D:Day23.4 The clouds of illusion, even those that have gently surrounded our  time together on the mountain top must now be surrendered, much as a

D:Day28.1 At one  time there seemed to be little or no choice between staying engaged
D:Day28.4 As the  time of schooling is left behind, the next stage of movement begins,
D:Day28.17 you have made, on the externalization of what is within. At the same  time however, what is within has been based upon what was previously

D:Day28.18 this first change, this first transformation, must take place in  time.
D:Day28.19 we have been working on by changing your experience of  time to one of experiencing two levels of “time.” Our “time” on the

D:Day33.15 that you are in relationship with everything and everyone all of the  time, is to realize the full extent of your power. You cannot realize
D:Day33.15 that you are in relationship with everything and everyone all of the  time and retain the desire to use your power. This is impossible. The
D:Day33.15 that you are in relationship with everything and everyone all of the  time is the realization of oneness and unity, the realization that

D:Day35.16 has led to awareness of union and relationship while at the same  time union and relationship has led to this desire. Creation itself,

D:Day37.23 of Jesus Christ himself, is not all of God, while at the same  time it is all of God just as Jesus was and is all of God. In union
D:Day37.25 Jesus was all of God and God was all of Jesus while at the same  time each was different or individuated by being in union and

time of acceptance (23)

D:Day4.49 For some the time of delay has passed. For those who linger in the  time of acceptance, there is reason for this as well.
D:Day4.54 there is still anything that can hold you back. This is what the  time of acceptance was meant to show you! Nothing can hold you back
D:Day6.32 it was replaced by acceptance. The conditions, however, of this  time of acceptance are not the conditions of the time of learning,
D:Day6.33 Let us speak now of the conditions of the  time of acceptance, for these will cheer you.
D:Day7.3 Acceptance of your Self is the precondition for the  time of acceptance. You are no longer denying your Self. You are no
D:Day7.4 Life is now supported. Support is thus a condition of the  time of acceptance.

D:Day7.7 Another condition of the  time of acceptance that will be of great service to you now is that
D:Day7.9 love that will lead the body to exhibit the effects of love in the  time of acceptance.
D:Day7.10 A further condition of the  time of acceptance is that of expansion. The singular self you once

D:Day7.18 on the mountain that you must realize that the conditions of the  time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of learning,

D:Day6.6 art? I choose this particular example to address this particular  time of being in-between. Let us consider the creation of a piece of

T3:21.21 While this has been called the  time of Christ, it is obviously no longer the time of Jesus Christ.
T4:1.17 stated as the difference between the time of the Holy Spirit and the  time of Christ. This has also been restated as the difference between
T4:1.24 experience. Many not yet grown to maturity have been born into the  time of Christ, and do not fit within the time or the consciousness

D:Day18.2 they return wholeness and will bring about the completion of the  time of Christ. This symbiotic working together will be essential for
D:Day39.7 between the separate and each other, between all and God. Yet if the  time of Christ is about the end of the need for the intermediary,

T4:9.9 sisters in this next phase of the journey, the journey out of the  time of learning that will usher in the fullness of time.
T4:10.13 As I said earlier, some will not be willing to move out of the  time of learning. Those who have learned what this Course would teach
T4:12.8 state. All conditions that were intermediary in nature during the  time of learning, are, during the time of sharing, naturally
T4:12.10 All you must remember now is that the  time of learning is past. While you are still encountering concerns
T4:12.12 was over and that it was time to move on to the next. During the  time of learning, this statement was consistent with learned wisdom.
T4:12.28 The individual or singular consciousness that was appropriate to the  time of learning does not continue. Thus the new pattern is one of
D:2.5 To continue to feel a need to learn rather than realizing that the  time of learning has come to an end, would be to not realize
D:3.7 declassify all the various aspects of life that were needed in the  time of learning. This is why we began quite truthfully and simply
D:4.2 same, you also are not different. The differences you saw during the  time of learning, differences that made you feel as if each being

D:4.18 this has taken so long or on the suffering that occurred during the  time of learning. This would be like dwelling on the inmate’s life as

D:6.25 The body was, in the  time of learning, representative of a learning being. The ego,

D:8.3 in you that you have experienced something that existed prior to the  time of learning. And that this something was quite wonderful.
D:8.4 You might think of this ability that existed prior to the  time of learning as coming from the content of the wider circle of
D:9.12 the natural abilities you discovered existed within you prior to the  time of learning, ideas are also discoveries that you make,
D:10.2 Learning is about the transfer of knowledge that was gained in the  time of learning, through the process of learning. Notice the
D:10.7 of your true way of knowing, a way that existed prior to the  time of learning and that has always existed. When put into practice
D:14.10 paves the way much as each step of learning that was needed in the  time of learning paved the way for the next and then the next. But
D:15.1 principles are like unto the patterns that were created for your  time of learning and that will be applied anew to the creation of new
D:15.21 conditions of learning. Why? Because they are no longer needed. The  time of learning has ended. When this time of becoming has ended, the

D:Day3.12 all ideas of lack, an idea you so thoroughly learned during the  time of learning that letting it go, even now, still torments you
D:Day3.13 This is the basic fallacy that the  time of learning supported. The idea of “if this, then that.” The

D:Day4.51 once again, which is why the time of fear, and along with it the  time of learning, can cease to be.
D:Day4.52 I have not so directly linked fear and the  time of learning before, but now you need to see their connection,
D:Day5.19 Remember that union cannot be learned, for if it could be, the  time of learning would be perpetuated rather than ended.

D:Day7.18 the conditions of the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the  time of learning, arise from within. Life has always existed within
D:Day7.18 the conditions of the time of acceptance. The conditions of the  time of learning were but imposed conditions that also arose from
D:Day7.19 learning and the imposition, from within, of the conditions of the  time of learning.
D:Day8.27 It is the bypassing of this “how to” function—a function of the  time of learning—that we are heading toward.
D:Day8.29 not the new. This is thinking comprised of the time-delay of the  time of learning—of a time when you used your feelings, opinions,
D:Day9.12 your ideal image, no matter how it was formed, is a product of the  time of learning. It became an image in your mind, and maybe even
D:Day9.13 This ideal image is intimately related with the  time of learning in another way as well. It is the epitome of

T3:12.4 is thus: by changing the consciousness of the personal self from a  time-bound state of consciousness to an eternal state of

T3:14.12 and so can your mind and heart—if they are allowed to do so. A  time-bound consciousness that hangs onto the past as if it were the

D:Day1.29 brought to completion and wholeness in you and in me, so that  together we bring about the second coming of Christ and the elevation
D:Day2.3 Your life is being seen more as a whole now. The parts are fitting  together. You can see how you have moved from seeming purposelessness
D:Day2.4 envisioned. This is the moment of fulfillment and desire coming  together, the time in which to realize “it was all worth it.”
D:Day2.17 This idea would hardly be a joyful idea with which to begin our work  together.

D:Day4.56 it to. It does not come at the end but at the beginning of our time  together for a reason. This is simply because this choice is the
D:Day4.59 still to be had. We are only at the beginning of our time  together.
D:Day6.2 While you know this is the focus of our time  together, few, if any of you, feel as if you have truly taken leave
D:Day6.4 of becoming as the time of movement, being, and expression coming  together. We have further spoken of your point of access to unity as
D:Day6.27 As your belief grows in our ability to accomplish  together our given task, you are almost surely feeling this devotion
D:Day6.28 where it belongs—here—in the passionate acceptance of our work  together. And so the lack of desire you are experiencing for other
D:Day6.30 this. This is the point of movement, being, and expression coming  together. The point of convergence, intersection, and pass-through.
D:Day8.17 has been a reason for this discussion coming so late in our time  together. To accept the feelings of the self of illusion would have
D:Day9.1 from lack, freedom from repression, are what we will now enjoy  together on our mountain top retreat. We have not removed ourselves
D:Day9.5 from this confidence in the self of form and they must be realized  together for the elevation of the self of form to take place. What
D:Day9.20 ideal state, we will not succeed in the work we are doing here  together. For if you believe this, you will not accept your Self as
D:Day10.2 and the Self of union and to, through this reliance, tie the two  together so that there is no seam, no boundary, no remaining
D:Day10.22 This is the culmination point of these two great objectives coming  together in you and your brothers and sisters.
D:Day15.2 in order for you to come to know it. The unknown and the known exist  together in everything and everyone. Thus your willingness to be made
D:Day15.12 it mean to practice informing and being informed? It means to join  together with others who have the ability to maintain
D:Day15.12 Christ-consciousness in your company. This creates the joining  together of spacious Selves. It is a joining without boundaries. You
D:Day15.19 You thus are not to come  together as the known but as the unknown. You dialogue about the
D:Day15.20 current of the energy, or clear pools of the spacious selves, coming  together. This current washes some stones clean and washes others
D:Day18.2 from her child. The ways are rather complementary and symbiotic.  Together they return wholeness and will bring about the completion of
D:Day18.2 about the completion of the time of Christ. This symbiotic working  together will be essential for the birth of the new and in truth
D:Day19.8 to each, we speak of expressions of this one ultimate function.  Together, the way of Mary and the way of Jesus demonstrate the truth
D:Day21.10 Realize that this is the aim of our final time  together. Concentrate on making the first transition and on the
D:Day23.4 clouds of illusion, even those that have gently surrounded our time  together on the mountain top must now be surrendered, much as a woman
D:Day27.2 on two levels. This has been a goal of the time we have spent  together in this way.
D:Day27.5 level ground because you have practiced during our mountain top time  together the ability to experience on two levels.
D:Day27.14 as one. We practice experiencing the constant and the variable  together. We practice in order to move toward an experience of
D:Day28.24 all the pieces of all that we have talked about will begin to fit  together. A whole will form within your mind much as if you have been
D:Day28.26 not removed yourself. Now you must begin to weave these two threads  together into the tapestry of your new life. This weaving will take
D:Day30.1 representation of the whole. Just as simple fractions can be added  together to achieve wholeness once a common denominator is found,
D:Day30.4 thus the commonly known injunction of “where two or more are joined  together.” If you would think of this in terms of “God” or the state
D:Day31.8 separately from the Self. Self and God are one and experiencing  together in wholeness. For the individuated Self to experience
D:Day32.18 experience you have achieved during the days and nights of our time  together, be attempts to show you how you can be more like unto God
D:Day33.6 becoming one in being—is the aim toward which we have journeyed  together.
D:Day34.8 Thus we continue to draw to the close of our time  together by asking each other to experience our power—the power of

D:16.9 You are alive. You have form. You think and feel. You have even been  told that you would cease to be without the existence of spirit, and
D:16.13 promised you. This is the creation of the new you that you were  told will precede the creation of the new world. This is what is

D:Day3.27 mind at ease, for you are not called to sacrifice, as you have been  told time and time again. I do not ask you to give up what you
D:Day3.35 You have been  told that the time of the Holy Spirit, the time of a need for an
D:Day3.53 Just as you were  told you cannot “think” great ideas into being, or great talent into
D:Day3.53 ideas into being, or great talent into fruition, just as you were  told, in other words, that the “givens” are not to be dealt with by
D:Day4.13 You have been  told that in unity a “place” exists that is your natural state, a
D:Day4.13 a state free from learning, a state free from death. To be  told that such a place exists is no more comforting than consoling
D:Day4.13 if you do not feel you have access to this place. It is like being  told that all of the treasure you might desire is locked away behind
D:Day4.34 I meditated or prayed. It is said that I fasted. You have been  told that you are here to fast from want. You know that you are here
D:Day5.18 and an end to effort, not another lesson to learn that you will be  told is not a lesson. Not another cause for seeming effort in order
D:Day6.11 You have been  told you are in the final stage of becoming. You have committed to
D:Day6.15 Yet realize that if you were  told to leave these worries behind and get away from it all, you
D:Day6.29 Now let’s address this seeming paradox. You have been  told to do only what you can feel peaceful doing, to do only what
D:Day6.29 to do only what allows you to be yourself, and yet here are you  told not to try to remove yourself from life.
D:Day8.13 Remember that you have been  told that your real Self will be intolerant only of illusion and that
D:Day8.19 called to see only the truth, to see beyond illusion, and then to be  told to accept the feelings of others? It should not. While true
D:Day10.22 Remember that you have been  told since the beginning of A Course of Love that the answers that
D:Day10.22 and that their source is your own true identity. You have been  told since the beginning of this Course that this is the time of the
D:Day15.13 of spacious Selves? Do you fear your power even though you have been  told it cannot be misused? Do you feel unworthy and seek to keep your
D:Day16.10 but a response to a feeling. Emotions are responses. You have been  told there are but two emotions, love and fear. What this is really
D:Day17.2 You have been  told Christ-consciousness is neither God nor man but the relationship
D:Day17.2 that allows the awareness that God is everything. You have been  told Christ-consciousness has also been known as wisdom, Sophia,
D:Day18.9 You have been  told that although you believed yourself to be separate this
D:Day20.4 you perhaps think this is a contradiction, for surely you have been  told much here that you did not previously know. This isn’t quite
D:Day21.9 you share in union and relationship with all. You have now been  told to own this dialogue and to realize that its wisdom is your own.

T4:9.7 of the new have called you to learn. Be appreciative of every  tool that has advanced your progress. But now be willing to leave
D:5.13 to think through once again the meaning of everything and to have a  tool to help you do so. This would assume that you are still a
D:Day4.29 The access that you seek is not a  tool that can be purchased through your right-actions or even your
D:Day4.29 or even your longing and desire. For this access is not a  tool but a function of who you are. This access is, like breathing,
D:Day4.34 There is a similar type of focus that will serve you now. It is not a  tool, as is meditation, for you are no longer in need of tools. But
D:Day4.34 I speak, the focus that is not meditation, the focus that is not a  tool? This is a focus on access itself.
D:Day5.4 said yesterday, our form of meditation, a meditation that is not a  tool but a function of your natural Self, is a focus on access. Thus
D:Day9.16 The idea of your “potential” was a useful learning  tool and one that served the purposes of the Holy Spirit as well as

T2:9.2 bypassing your ego mind. Some practices more commonly thought of as  tools might be meditation, exercises of the body such as yoga, or
T2:9.2 such as yoga, or exercises of the mind such as affirmations. These  tools are all means of releasing ego mind and inviting the one mind,
T2:9.2 mind, or unity into the present moment. When seen as such, all these  tools, including needs, can ignite the combination of learning and

D:Day4.34 But you have taken yourself away from the ordinary world. You are on  top of the mountain. What is this all about? Why have we gathered
D:Day4.35 You might think of the mountain  top as symbolic of a place close to God. If God was once seen as a
D:Day4.35 heaven, and heaven as a place beyond the clouds, then the mountain  top was symbolic of proximity. It was symbolic of a place from which
D:Day4.39 really are, then our purpose of being together here on this mountain  top will go unfulfilled.
D:Day4.43 this you can do, for I deny no one the journey to the mountain  top, not once or many times. But this is not what I call you to.
D:Day6.19 halls of learning that will accomplish this. There is no mountain  top in any location on Earth that can accomplish this. It is only the
D:Day6.20 for a moment to the temptations associated with the mountain  top of my own experience. They were temptations of the world, of the
D:Day6.20 the same now as they were then. They are the same on the mountain  top as they are on level ground. A “place” that seems externally
D:Day6.21 here. It is a truly elevated place. It is as real as a mountain  top, in fact much more real. Were your scientists to know what to
D:Day9.1 from repression, are what we will now enjoy together on our mountain  top retreat. We have not removed ourselves from life in any way, and
D:Day14.13 must be heard as the voice of the one. You are not on this mountain  top alone! Can you not hear your own voice? Can you not hear the
D:Day15.11 Engaging in dialogue with those who join you on the mountain  top is necessary to this next step. One reason is that it allows a

D:Day27.7 and a mountain top perspective. Your descent from the mountain  top will not mean that you no longer have the perspective gained
D:Day27.15 separation. This is what you practice as you gather on the mountain  top while remaining on level ground.
D:Day28.1 you must begin to face as we begin our descent from the mountain  top. To wait until level ground is reached to begin to view the
D:Day29.1 of experience. If you can be having the experience of the mountain  top and the experience of level ground simultaneously, then you can

D:Day31.3 What the mountain  top experience is helping you to see is that you are the experience.
D:Day31.3 is helping you to see is that you are the experience. The mountain  top experience did not happen to you or happen separately from you.

D:Day35.6 you will return to level ground, you will also retain the mountain  top experience. As was said before, the mountain came to you. You

C:10.28 And can you skip along and get in front to see your body coming  toward you?
C:11.1 are but a few reasons for this method. The first is your attitude  toward instruction, and the fact that you do not really desire it.
C:13.1 feel what unity means, and this I promise you. This is what we work  toward in this Course, for once you have experienced the feeling of
C:16.21 of powerlessness. The rejection of powerlessness is but a step  toward your identity achieved through the awakening of love of Self.
C:17.17 to integrate your learning as we move to wholeness. The first move  toward wholeness is but to understand this: heart and mind are not

C:20.45 to expecting willingness is another key change that will lead  toward wholeheartedness. When you change your actions from those of

T3:1.5 As with much of our previous work, the first step in advancing  toward this goal is in developing an awareness of what is not the

T3:8.1 the very explosions that have rocked your faulty foundation. To work  toward being a representation of such great power is still a worthy
T3:8.2 If the Source of Truth is within you, then it is your own revelation  toward which we work. Never forget that establishing your identity
T3:10.15 will gather people to you in much the way people will gravitate  toward beautiful music. Many will be eager to learn what you have
T3:12.4 as has been said before, is the miracle. This miracle is the goal  toward which we now work.
T3:13.1 have had concerning whether or not you would desire the new goal  toward which we work.
T3:14.2 While these would all be worthy aims they are not the goal  toward which we work. These would be the consequences of new beliefs
T3:20.6 and you begin, along with the one whom you observe, the long walk  toward death’s door. All of these actions could be called your
T3:20.13 to suffering? Many will. Will an end to suffering be what you work  toward? No. This is not your work. This is not about your effort.
T4:9.2 also eventually come to an end. For this end to learning is the goal  toward which we now work.
T4:10.7 What we work  toward now is to advance from learning and producing things and
D:1.27 Thus we work now  toward acceptance of what you have learned in unity. We work towards
D:3.12 one is now the nature of the elevated Self of form, and what we work  toward through this dialogue is your full awareness of what this
D:7.17 and vision, is still related to the self of form. It is a step  toward full acceptance and awareness of who you are now and what this
D:7.22 concerns mount, even the perceived survival needs are leading you  toward new answers of what survival may mean.
D:7.23 the old way is near and that the new is coming. They are thus moving  toward anticipation rather than adaptation, and evolution moves with
D:8.10 from separation is still valuable, as it is a sign of yearning  toward the true Self and the true expression of the Self. Thus where
D:9.8 You must continually remember your newness and the different aim  toward which we now work. The aims we clearly embraced together when
D:17.5 hands wide open, gazing jubilantly into the heavens rather than  toward the earth below. This is the stance of both desire and

D:Day3.51 The final stage in this process, this movement  toward acceptance, is depression, a lowering of spirits and energy, a

D:Day6.31 and remain in your life. Realize that this is just what we work  toward! This difficulty will pass through you as you allow for and
D:Day7.5 You may feel supported in your spiritual life, in your progress  toward full awareness and the elevation of the self of form, but as
D:Day8.17 had not yet unlearned the lessons of the past or taken these steps  toward elevation. Now, however, it is crucial that you come to
D:Day8.27 and every feeling that you do not like will pull you from union  toward separation. All feelings of non-acceptance lead to a feeling
D:Day8.27 function—a function of the time of learning—that we are heading  toward.
D:Day9.11 It has form only within your mind and has no substance. To work  toward, or to have as a goal, the achievement of an ideal image is to
D:Day9.32 this type of freedom to strive, to achieve, to accomplish, to work  toward and realize goals. This is the second myth that must be
D:Day16.12 to you, but nevertheless for your benefit, you would go a long way  toward acceptance.
D:Day27.14 This is what we move  toward as we practice participating in two levels of experience
D:Day27.14 the constant and the variable together. We practice in order to move  toward an experience of variability within wholeness rather than
D:Day28.4 behind, the next stage of movement begins, that of external movement  toward independence. With this movement, the number of choices
D:Day28.5 leading to the next level of experience: That of external movement  toward a chosen type of life.
D:Day28.24 As you move  toward wholeness, all the pieces of all that we have talked about
D:Day33.6 one—the individuated self becoming one in being—is the aim  toward which we have journeyed together.
D:Day40.25 often have you said or felt, when confronted with some insensitivity  toward yourself, especially that of being “left out,” unrecognized,
A.23 delay the movement of the group or to feel anything but gentleness  toward those who cannot at this time accept the new way. No harm will

D:Day5.20 here, after your climb. You simply want to rest and have whatever  transformation is to come to you to come. If you could indeed give in
D:Day5.20 If you could indeed give in to this desire fully, it would speed the  transformation along quite nicely. So please, listen to your
D:Day7.7 no time. Time has not yet ceased to be, but as you are in a state of  transformation, so too is it. Again I remind you, as within, so
D:Day8.2 who you are and where you are in every moment is what will cause the  transformation that will end your desire to remove yourself from
D:Day10.12 for the realization of the elevated Self of form. During this  transformation, we work with what is as well as with the new and the
D:Day10.33 cannot be done from without but must be done from within. It is the  transformation that is caused within that will affect the world
D:Day14.1 and the many, that full acceptance is actually achieved and complete  transformation begun.
D:Day24.3 does not await. It simply is. It can remain as the untapped power of  transformation, or it can be released. The choice is and is not

D:1.10 This is the  transition you have felt yourself to be in. The ego is gone but the
D:Day19.11 ideas as acclaim and obscurity will be no more. But at this time of  transition, both ways are needed to demonstrate the means of coming
D:Day19.17 new to be cast and thus to ride out the many storms of this time of  transition.

treasure (44)

C:3.19 What pain has your heart endured that it has failed to  treasure for its source? Its source is love, and what greater proof
T2:1.1 there are treasures that lie within you. What was once regarded as  treasure, such as a talent that was in need of developing, when
T2:1.1 of developing, when realized, is often disregarded thereafter as a  treasure and becomes instead something regarded as an ability and
T2:1.1 identity. This is what we are going to explore in this Treatise. A  treasure that you do not as yet recognize is going to be recognized.
T2:1.1 will become your identity. We will begin by discussing the nature of  treasure.
T2:1.2  Treasure is most often seen in one of two ways—as something
T2:1.3  Treasure in the first sense is, first and foremost, something that
T2:1.3 as being of value. As this Treatise is not concerned with material  treasure, we will not explore the dimensions of physical treasure
T2:1.3 material treasure, we will not explore the dimensions of physical  treasure except to say that the feelings that cause one to think that
T2:1.3 cause one to think that any physical thing is capable of being a  treasure or being treasured are of the ego. We will instead assume
T2:1.4 be who you are, you may have determined that exploring your internal  treasure is now unnecessary. You may well be feeling a sense of
T2:1.5 you would deem yourself no longer interested in the hunt for buried  treasure and see it not.
T2:1.8 The  treasure that lies within that you do not yet fully recognize is that
T2:1.13 not eventually put a brush to a canvas. But it does mean that the  treasure exists without these “things” and that the treasure is
T2:1.13 mean that the treasure exists without these “things” and that the  treasure is already a fully realized creation. The treasure already
T2:1.13 and that the treasure is already a fully realized creation. The  treasure already is and it is already valuable and available.
T2:2.1 Why would we begin “A Treatise on Unity” by talking of  treasure? To pave the way for talking of calling. What is it in you
T2:3.2 everything already exists fully realized. It is like a trunk full of  treasure. Like a menu of possibilities. All you must do is
T2:3.2 of possibilities. All you must do is wholeheartedly recognize the  treasure you have already chosen to bring to the world. Your heart
T2:3.2 chosen to bring to the world. Your heart speaks to you of this  treasure and guides you to open the trunk and release it to the world
T2:4.8 to the glad acceptance of a gift of high value, or in other words, a  treasure. One set of thoughts and feelings contain all that one might
T2:6.5 time that it will take? Relate this question to our discussion of  treasure and you will understand what it is of which I speak. You
T2:9.3 We are now beginning to speak of the second aspect of  treasure that was addressed in the beginning of this Treatise as
T2:9.3 as something found that is kept secure and cherished. This aspect of  treasure relates to your ability to let go. As many of you will find
T2:9.11 of special relationships and what you might more readily think of as  treasure, such as a successful career or inspired creative project.
T2:10.14 releases you from the feeling of needing to control or protect your  treasure. It releases you as well from the static state of trying to
T2:12.7 must learn to give. As you have come to see calling as a gift and a  treasure as well as a learning device, so you must come to see your
T2:12.7 to see your own ability to call forth intercession as a gift and  treasure you are able to give in service to your brothers and sisters.
T2:12.8 If callings come to alert you to the  treasure within, how can it be that you, as a miracle-minded being,
T2:12.8 a miracle-minded being, are not called upon to also call forth the  treasure that exists around you? When you call to those whom you meet
T3:7.9 Now you have seized upon even this idea and called it not  treasure but theory and related it to the origins of the universe,
T3:8.9 Self within the house of illusion caused explosions and a fallout of  treasure, the representation of the true Self within the House of
T3:8.11 Within the fallout of  treasure, what was looked for was found. If what was looked for were
D:14.13 “A Treatise on Unity and Its Recognition” when it was said that “a  treasure that you do not as yet recognize is going to be recognized.
D:14.13 And finally, through experience, it will become your identity.” That  treasure is the new way of thought put forth in “A Treatise on the
D:Day4.13 you have access to this place. It is like being told that all of the  treasure you might desire is locked away behind a gate to which you
D:Day4.14 Access, then, is the key to the  treasure.
D:Day4.23 know anything else with the certainty you seek, for union is the  treasure that has been locked away from you.
D:Day4.24 of the first of my disciples, was that they had access to this  treasure. They still knew that it existed, but since they knew not
D:Day4.26 Union is both the  treasure and the key to the treasure. Union is both access and the
D:Day4.26 Union is both the treasure and the key to the  treasure. Union is both access and the place to which you desire
D:Day4.31 details. I am imparting to you the key to abundance and all the  treasure that will come with the end of the time of learning. You, on
A.33 words that begin the “Treatise on Unity” would be appropriate: “A  treasure that you do not as yet recognize is going to be recognized.
A.34 present—not in the future. It is with them—not beyond them. The  treasure is them.

treasured (3)

C:2.23 There are no plunders to be  treasured. No victors of this war. All that has been learned and
C:3.19 upon the cells far greater than any cancer. The pain of love, so  treasured that it cannot be let go, can and does indeed attack the
T2:1.3 that any physical thing is capable of being a treasure or being  treasured are of the ego. We will instead assume that you have moved

treasures (14)

C:1.7 you realize none of what you formerly possessed and called your  treasures are needed. How silly you feel to have carted them from one
C:20.40 gift one feels one cannot “use” is discarded. Thus have many of your  treasures lain fallow.
T2:1.1 You are all aware, at least at times, that there are  treasures that lie within you. What was once regarded as treasure,
T2:1.3 moved beyond these ego concerns and explore the realm of internal  treasures.
T2:1.4 ego, in your fear of returning to it, often turn away from internal  treasures that you believe, when realized, might feed the ego.
T2:1.4 than you are now, including any desires related to those internal  treasures you had once hoped to have become abilities. You think this
T2:1.14 with but a bit of willingness. This change in thinking in regards to  treasures you do recognize will pave the way for recognition of
T2:1.14 to treasures you do recognize will pave the way for recognition of  treasures you heretofore have not recognized.
T2:6.1 speaking of as “calling” is your heart. It is what alerts you to the  treasures that lie within. There is no time in the place we are
T2:6.5 will understand what it is of which I speak. You believe that your  treasures only become accomplished abilities within time. You believe
T2:6.5 become accomplished abilities within time. You believe that your  treasures only become part of your identity when you have passed
T2:6.5 identity when you have passed beyond the time it takes for those  treasures to become abilities. Thus all that you might wish to
T3:7.7 ensued as the recognition dawned on those who looked, that  treasures were to be found there. One found art and another religion,
T3:8.10 all that the explosions in the house of illusion have wrought. These  treasures that you now enjoy would have seemed like miracles to them.

treat (2)

C:15.5 of what is necessary to be good, your notions of what it means to  treat others well. You would not be special to this one if you did
D:Day5.13 as having or needing an “access” point to love, and while you may  treat love still as an individual attribute intimately associated

treated (5)

C:7.11 Why should you give anything to anyone when your day has already  treated you so badly? You withhold even a smile, because you have
C:17.17 heart, or wholeheartedness. You may ask then why this Course has  treated them as separate parts of you. This is simply because this is
D:Day16.12 you are quick to want to “do something” about. If all feelings were  treated more like intuition is treated—with a “knowing” that the
D:Day16.12 about. If all feelings were treated more like intuition is  treated—with a “knowing” that the feeling has come to tell you
D:Day39.25 Have I been a fair God? Then you have been fair and the world has  treated you fairly.

treatise (71)

T1:1.2 of this state of being requires further guidance. Thus this  Treatise will attempt to give specific examples of what to look for
T1:4.2 of thinking you learned under the instruction of the ego-mind. This  Treatise must change that habit in order for all your thoughts to
T1:4.2 to become the miracles that express the truth of who you are. This  Treatise will put your instruction fully under my guidance and allow
T2:1.1 part of your identity. This is what we are going to explore in this  Treatise. A treasure that you do not as yet recognize is going to be
T2:1.3 that you believe exists and have defined as being of value. As this  Treatise is not concerned with material treasure, we will not explore
T2:2.1 Why would we begin “A  Treatise on Unity” by talking of treasure? To pave the way for

T2:4.4 of learning that you are at and what this Treatise addresses. This  Treatise is attempting to show you how to live as who you are, how to
T2:4.14 Now you may feel as if this  Treatise has led around in a circle, bringing you back only to
T2:7.10 that are in need of change. As was stated in the beginning of this  Treatise, this Course has not called you to a static state of
T2:9.3 aspect of treasure that was addressed in the beginning of this  Treatise as something found that is kept secure and cherished. This
T2:12.7 is the miracle. This is why we also devoted a fair amount of this  Treatise to a discussion of calling. Calling is not only something
T2:13.1 The final call of this  Treatise is, in contrast to those put forth previously, a personal
T2:13.3 While the personal self is the subject of the next  Treatise, this is my invitation to you, specifically, to enter into a
T2:13.4 around you, practice the beliefs that have been put forth in this  Treatise. Know that, in the time of unity, the truth will be shared
T2:13.6 is just beginning as we return to the premise put forth in “A  Treatise on the Art of Thought:” that of the elevation of form.
T3:1.3 of the Self that you are is what we work toward in this  Treatise and will lead to true vision and to a new world.
T3:1.8 I began this  Treatise by saying that the personal self exists as the self you
T3:2.4 around this system. Now, along with the beliefs put forth in “A  Treatise on Unity,” you are asked to accept a new belief regarding
T3:4.7 the replacement of illusion with the truth. The very purpose of this  Treatise is to prevent the replacement of illusion with illusion, or
T3:7.1 As you have seen by now, we have moved from talking of beliefs in “A  Treatise on Unity,” to speaking here of ideas. God’s thought of you
T3:7.2 for the truth. Thus you can see that the beliefs put forth in “A  Treatise on Unity” are necessary only to return you to the truth.
T3:8.7 is what has gone so wrong within God’s creation. As was said in “A  Treatise on the Art of Thought,” the idea of love can replace the
T3:13.2 by further defining the temptations of the human experience. In “A  Treatise on the Art of Thought,” we spoke of these temptations in
T3:15.14 are the beliefs that you adopted with the assistance of “A  Treatise on Unity:”
T3:16.6 All of these temptations relate to the beliefs set forth in “A  Treatise on Unity.”
T3:17.7 You were told in “A  Treatise on the Art of Thought” that the time of the Holy Spirit has
T3:20.4 In “A  Treatise on the Art of Thought,” you were asked to request a miracle
T3:21.18 of your personal self. As was said at the beginning of this  Treatise, by the time the learning of this Treatise is complete, the
T3:21.18 at the beginning of this Treatise, by the time the learning of this  Treatise is complete, the personal self will continue to exist only
T3:22.8 future pattern of creating that we will speak of more in the next  Treatise.
T3:22.10 readiness is what I now call your attention to as I complete this  Treatise with lessons concerning observation of your new Self.
T4:1.1 Let me tell you what this  Treatise will not be about. It will not be predictive. It will leave
T4:1.12 As was said within “A  Treatise on the Personal Self,” even the house of illusion is held
T4:1.15 This confusion is what this  Treatise will seek to dispel so that you are left with no confusion
T4:1.16 As was said within “A  Treatise on the Personal Self,” all notions of blame must be gone
T4:2.10 fully aware of the new time. Full awareness of the new is what this  Treatise seeks to accomplish and so it is necessary to belabor these
T4:2.10 you do not understand the definition of observation provided in “A  Treatise on the Personal Self.”
T4:2.25 you, you will learn the lessons that are being spoken of within this  Treatise.

T4:11.1 This is why I stated at the onset of this Treatise that this  Treatise would not be predictive. Many predictions of the future have
T4:11.4 Thus I will conclude this  Treatise with a prelude to the sharing that is our new means of
T4:11.4 that replaces learning with what is beyond learning. I conclude this  Treatise by sharing that which will assist you in sustaining
T4:12.11 to the state of rebellion that was discussed within the text of this  Treatise.
D:3.8 introduced within A Course of Love and taught quite thoroughly in “A  Treatise on Unity and Its Recognition”. Let’s talk of this now as an
D:5.3 is returning the world to its true representation. As was said in “A  Treatise on the Personal Self”, there is a huge difference between a
D:7.19 time as it is an ongoing aspect of creation. As you were told in “A  Treatise on the New”, the future is yet to be created. While this

C:29.12 that God’s work takes place outside of time, as do all acts of  true service or creation. This is not a readily understandable
C:29.21 Claiming is akin to prayer and is but an asking, an asking for your  true inheritance. You have felt that you need to know for what it is
C:29.21 yet you cannot know until you inherit. Can you have faith that your  true inheritance is what you truly desire, even knowing not exactly
C:30.6 Universal consciousness is being in relationship. It is the  true Self, the known Self, in all its glorious relationship with
C:31.2 of the body, such as those of survival, are not the thoughts of the  true Self. This is the clarification that needs to be made for some
C:31.11 yourself calls for the exact opposite of extension. This is the only  true source of conflict. And, yet again, your perception of your
C:31.11 your belief in your ego as yourself you will never realize your  true identity.
C:31.21 The same is  true of your potentials, which brought to love are accomplished and
C:31.36 an investment in them staying the same. Since this is most often  true for them as well, you too become locked into the expected
C:32.2 Trinity is different despite the oneness of the Trinity. The same is  true of all relationship with everything. The way in which you

T1:1.9 of learning the ego-mind had to be circumvented in order for  true learning to take place. This is what A Course of Love
T1:2.4 from which all responses flow. As your heart is the Source of your  true Self, your thoughts, once removed from those of the ego-mind are
T1:2.4 from those of the ego-mind are the expression and extension of your  true Self. They are the answer of the Created to the Creator, the
T1:3.6 quest for proof that demonstrates a lack of faith but the reverse is  true. What kind of miracle would lead to a lack of faith? There is no
T1:3.9 consequences for yourself. If you requested a miracle, and it came  true, what then? If you request a small miracle and it comes true,
T1:3.9 it came true, what then? If you request a small miracle and it comes  true, how awful you would feel that you had not requested a bigger
T1:6.6 state of lack for what is seen as missing or desired. In contrast,  true prayer, formed in union, is a means of creating, recollecting,
T1:7.1 would desire to live, achieve what you would choose to achieve. The  true way in which to see this prerequisite to the condition of
T1:10.10 past what you have remembered to what was truly there. No moment of  true learning ever arrived without the Peace of God for without the
T1:10.10 arrived without the Peace of God for without the Peace of God no  true learning is possible.
T2:2.1 mind makes of imagination a fantasy. It is the heart that sees with  true imagination and the heart that speaks to you in terms that are
T2:2.7 unseen and to imagine the existence of that which will reveal its  true nature and its joy.
T2:3.7 to express that aspect of creation. It is quite literally  true that the seeds of much of creation lie dormant within you,
T2:4.12 You who have so recently felt the peace of  true acceptance are not asked to leave that peace to go in search of
T2:6.7 but also part of the ongoing nature of creation. Could this be  true of a chair and not be true of you?
T2:6.7 ongoing nature of creation. Could this be true of a chair and not be  true of you?
T2:7.2 deem important. This fear that you feel in relation to others is as  true of those you hold most dear to you as it is of those you would
T2:7.17 the certainty you seek, they again are not to be confused with the  true aims of this course of study.
T2:7.19 this place you learn to discriminate, to separate the false from the  true, for your ego thoughts cannot long abide in the holy place of
T2:7.19 and illusion separated, you develop the discipline to express your  true Self, as you are now. This is the only way the Self you are now
T2:7.21 giving and receiving being one in truth, your belief will become  true conviction. Your ability to recognize giving and receiving as
T2:8.6 to the special relationships that would take you away from your  true Self. Never again will you be away from home for home is who you
T2:9.7 are shared. This is what differentiates needs from wants. This is  true in two senses. It is true in that all needs, from survival needs
T2:9.7 differentiates needs from wants. This is true in two senses. It is  true in that all needs, from survival needs to needs for love are
T2:9.11 are met, the desire to hang on to what you have arises. This is  true of knowledge, or what you know, and of who you are, just as much
T2:10.6 needs have been shown to be shared in like measure by all, so too is  true knowing. Just as needs were shown to be distinguishable from
T2:11.7 the belief in separation and all that followed from it. Thus your  true identity must be recreated from the belief in unity that is
T2:11.7 all that opposes relationship, and the ego is all that opposes your  true identity.
T2:11.11 both wholly human and wholly divine? These statements can only be  true if there is no division between you and relationship, if there
T2:11.12 then the image of yourself the ego has put forth would have been a  true image. But as life cannot exist apart from relationship, this
T2:11.12 is but your belief that this has occurred; that what could never be  true has become the truth.
T2:12.2 right action. Until you were able to distinguish the false from the  true, you were not able to receive the power of miracles.
T2:12.10 gardener knows she is part of the relationship that is the garden. A  true gardener believes not in bad seeds. A true gardener believes not
T2:12.10 that is the garden. A true gardener believes not in bad seeds. A  true gardener believes not that she is in control. A true gardener
T2:12.10 in bad seeds. A true gardener believes not that she is in control. A  true gardener accepts the grandeur that is the garden and finds it
T2:13.5 from which all calls are sounded and received, the place where the  true thinking of those united in mind and heart arises. Gratitude is
T3:1.1 that you may claim your personal self again and present to others a  true representation of who you are.
T3:1.2 While still a representation, there is a huge difference between a  true representation and a false representation.
T3:1.3 of the ego as the self is what has led to the world you see. A  true representation of the Self that you are is what we work toward
T3:1.3 you are is what we work toward in this Treatise and will lead to  true vision and to a new world.
T3:1.5 what is not the truth. While the ability to distinguish between the  true and the untrue has been repeatedly discussed as the ability to
T3:1.9 was who you were, was an illusion that blocked awareness of your  true Self from your mind. Your true Self is now ready to come out of
T3:1.9 that blocked awareness of your true Self from your mind. Your  true Self is now ready to come out of the mist of illusion in which
T3:2.2 or in other words, by making something known. This is what  true relationship does and is its purpose as well as what it is.
T3:3.2 these traits that are not loveable and then I will know your love is  true.” You make this same statement to yourself as well, seemingly
T3:3.6 are not loveable, only that you have not yet fully recognized your  true Self. Until you fully recognize your Self, you cannot fully love
T3:5.2 you have emptied a space for love to fill. Each time you have felt  true devotion you have emptied a space for love to fill. You have
T3:5.7 of the ego-self and to allow the personal self to live on as the one  true Self, the one true son of God. The gift of redemption was given
T3:5.7 to allow the personal self to live on as the one true Self, the one  true son of God. The gift of redemption was given once and for all.
T3:6.5 While the untrue cannot exist with the  true, what I am calling here bitterness is all that you have forced,
T3:7.4 and the truth is beyond compare. This is the only idea that holds  true meaning and so all meaning is found within it. Thus we start
T3:7.6 many rooms and in some you were even capable of representing your  true Self. This representation of the true Self within the house of
T3:7.6 capable of representing your true Self. This representation of the  true Self within the house of illusion was like an explosion
T3:7.7 In the aftermath of the explosion, the representation of the  true Self settled like dust, and all the attention fell upon it. A
T3:8.9 As the representations of the  true Self within the house of illusion caused explosions and a
T3:8.9 explosions and a fallout of treasure, the representation of the  true Self within the House of Truth will cause the creation of the
T3:10.10 like all the rest of the ego’s thought system, was learned. Your  true Self has no cause for uncertainty. Thus you are called, as well,
T3:10.12 and no division. It is the thought system of unity. It is your  true thought system and will be easily remembered once you begin to
T3:10.14 resist unlearning the ego thought system, the thought system of your  true Self will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon
T3:13.3 These temptations will concern you less and less as we uncover their  true meaning by looking beyond the experiences themselves to the
T3:15.2 ideas that things cannot be different than they once were. The only  true departure from this idea has concerned the occasions of birth
T3:16.17 thought system of the truth builds upon itself and forms a real and  true interrelated whole. What forms the House of Truth is love
T3:17.3 is finite to begin and end. Birth and death are all you have seen as  true new beginnings.
T3:17.5 during the time of your experience in physical form. Since your  true Self could not learn the untrue, a new self, which we have
T3:17.5 called the ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the  true, your true Self had to be appealed to for this learning to take
T3:17.5 ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the true, your  true Self had to be appealed to for this learning to take place.
T3:17.6 these stories, the Holy Spirit is always called upon to return the  true Self to the self of illusion. A Holy Spirit is called to return
T3:17.8 return of Christ, or your ability and willingness to live as your  true Self, to live in the House of Truth rather than the house of
T3:19.2 This is no call for judgment upon the physical. How could this be  true when the physical is now called upon to serve the greatest
T3:19.6 and perceived lack. Yet the body has no will and the survival of the  true Self is not based upon it.
T3:19.10 see it not as the source of temptations of the human experience. The  true source of these temptations has been revealed to lie within the
T3:21.7 The only means for the personal self and the  true Self to exist together is for the truth to be lived in time. In
T3:21.17 Now however, you are being called to accept your  true identity even while you retain the form of your personal self.
T3:21.17 even while you retain the form of your personal self. As your  true identity is that of a Self who exists in unity and the identity
T3:21.20 thought system of the truth and aids you in becoming certain of your  true identity. The second is that the very differences that you seem
T3:22.2 Surely there are already those called to represent not only their  true Selves but this Course to the world. If this had not been the
T3:22.14 of God. What you desire now is the Will of God because it is your  true desire, your will and God’s joined as one.
T3:22.17 self. To call forth observance is to call forth the sight of your  true Self. To call forth the sight of your true Self is to call your
T3:22.17 forth the sight of your true Self. To call forth the sight of your  true Self is to call your true Self into observable form. Calling the
T3:22.17 true Self. To call forth the sight of your true Self is to call your  true Self into observable form. Calling the true Self forth into
T3:22.17 Self is to call your true Self into observable form. Calling the  true Self forth into observable form is the end of the old and the
T4:2.7 before. That those who came before did not become aware of their  true nature does not mean that it did not exist; that there are
T4:2.7 living among you in this time who will not become aware of their  true nature does not mean that it does not exist within them. You are
T4:2.8 were to see into the eyes and hearts of any human from any time with  true vision, you would see the accomplished Self there. There can be
T4:2.21 I tell you something else and hope you will remember it and bid it  true. Each day is a creation and holy too. Not one day is meant to be
T4:2.28 all, I could see my brothers and sisters “in Christ” or in their  true nature. I saw them in union and relationship, where they saw
T4:2.31 Examine what you may have felt the onset of  true vision would mean. Have you considered this question? Have you
T4:2.32 All of these things are possible. But  true vision is seeing relationship and union. It is the opposite of
T4:3.4 of love in observable form. This original intent or cause formed the  true nature of the personal self capable of being observed in
T4:3.5 are about is reversing this displacement and returning you to your  true nature.
T4:4.14 This knowing will come from the return of  true vision. True vision sees life-everlasting where perception but
T4:4.14 This knowing will come from the return of true vision.  True vision sees life-everlasting where perception but saw finite
T4:4.16 you must die to the personal self of form in order to be reborn as a  true Self. This is an old way of thinking. Have we not worked
T4:4.16 thinking. Have we not worked throughout this Course to return your  true identity to you now? The joining of heart and mind in
T4:4.16 mind in relationship is the joining of the personal self with the  true Self in the reality in which you exist now. Remember, the heart
T4:4.17 Can you not see the necessity of removing the idea that your  true Self will be returned to you only through death? What purpose
T4:4.18 What purpose will death serve when your  true Self has joined with your physical form? You will see it simply
T4:5.1 of creation and that your fulfillment lies in the acceptance of your  true inheritance.
T4:5.9 The same is  true of you! You cannot express yourself independently of the whole!
T4:5.11 in ways that the body’s eyes were unable to see, the glory of your  true nature. You are given the chance, just as you are being given
T4:5.11 chance, just as you are being given the chance now, to choose your  true nature with your free will.
T4:5.12 revelation by God. Think about this now and you will see that it is  true. You hoped to live a good life and at the end of that life to
T4:5.13 determines the way in which your life will continue. The same is  true right now! For this is the time of Christ and thus of your
T4:7.7 you to your Self and the unity of Christ-consciousness. The same is  true of all conditions of all learning everywhere. The conditions are
T4:8.6 happened in the case of human beings, was a disconnect from your own  true nature, which in turn caused a disconnect in your ability to
T4:8.7 The expression of your  true nature should never have been difficult, joyless, or fearful;
T4:8.8 You might ask how, if what I’m saying is  true, could God disconnect from himself? What God could not
T4:8.8 disconnect from himself? What God could not disconnect from was the  true nature of the being of God, which is love. What God could not
T4:8.8 of God, which is love. What God could not disconnect from was the  true nature of creation, which is love. What God, in effect had to
T4:8.14 of who you are that you come to know who you are, then this is  true of God as well. God could not be the only being in all of
T4:8.16 all that this was, was a desire to be done with learning, which is a  true desire consistent with your true nature and your purpose here.
T4:8.16 be done with learning, which is a true desire consistent with your  true nature and your purpose here. To learn everything there is to
T4:8.17 you begin to come to know through constant revelation of what is.  True learning has had only one purpose—the purpose of returning you
T4:8.17 only one purpose—the purpose of returning you to awareness of your  true identity. Be done with learning now as you accept who you truly
T4:10.1 has led you through resigning as your own teacher, to becoming a  true student, and to now leading you beyond the time of being a
T4:10.1 You willingly gave up this role and became comfortable in the  true role of learner. You are now asked to be willing to give up the
T4:10.10 unity and relationship the production of unity and relationship and  true meaning will be revealed.
D:1.3 practical terms is that you let the personal self step back and the  true Self step forward. Realize that all of your “concerns” are still
D:1.3 You do not “see” the new, the new Self of elevated form or the  true Self of divine union. You “see” the separated self still
D:1.3 personal self in the stepping back that is required in order for the  true Self to step forward.
D:1.10 transition you have felt yourself to be in. The ego is gone but the  true Self has not been allowed as yet to dwell within the personal
D:1.10 personal self. This elevation occurs through the acceptance of your  true identity, not through being identity-less. The reign of the ego
D:1.11 Be what you have been called to be. Open your dwelling place to your  true Self, your true identity. Imagine this opening and this
D:1.11 been called to be. Open your dwelling place to your true Self, your  true identity. Imagine this opening and this replacement occurring
D:1.13 of light becomes a beacon as you open your heart and allow your  true identity to be what is, even within your form. You are in grace
D:1.23 exists outside or apart from yourself. If you fully accepted your  true identity, you would no longer look outside of yourself for
D:1.24 you. What you are going to find happening, as you accept your  true identity, is a transference of purpose concerning your body.
D:1.26 is not the case. When you fully accept this, you will see that it is  true. Like the acceptance of unity that could not be taught, but was
D:1.26 be taught, but was the condition for learning, acceptance of your  true identity cannot be taught but is the condition necessary for
D:2.1 to take this Course into your heart and let it return you to your  true identity. Those of you who found within this willingness an
D:2.2 To deny is to refuse to accept as  true or right that which you know is not true or right. This is the
D:2.2 is to refuse to accept as true or right that which you know is not  true or right. This is the denial of insanity in favor of the
D:2.2 of sanity, the denial of the false for the acceptance of the  true. Although you are called to these two actions simultaneously—
D:2.6 learning that you have now completed, learning that has revealed the  true nature of who you are, your inability to realize your completion
D:2.15 was learning. The function of all learning was to return you to your  true identity. Because we are working now for the integration of your
D:2.15 identity. Because we are working now for the integration of your  true identity into the self of form, or the elevation of the personal
D:3.8 like to talk of in a new way. These are ideas that address your  true nature as a being existing in union, and this is why we call
D:3.11 of giving and receiving as one senseless as well. In a way, this is  true. Giving and receiving as one is senseless in terms related to a
D:4.12 possible as well as the patterns that have made your return to your  true identity possible. These patterns are both external and
D:4.16 believing the ego had become an externalized self took you, the  true Self and the true learner, out of the learning loop. Obviously
D:4.16 ego had become an externalized self took you, the true Self and the  true learner, out of the learning loop. Obviously these systems,
D:5.3 What we are doing now is returning the world to its  true representation. As was said in “A Treatise on the Personal
D:5.3 Treatise on the Personal Self”, there is a huge difference between a  true representation and a false representation. While the false
D:5.4 The world without was created as a  true representation of the world within, and as you become aware of
D:5.6 This desire was created to remind you—to point the way—to your  true desire for your true identity as a being joined in oneness. This
D:5.6 to remind you—to point the way—to your true desire for your  true identity as a being joined in oneness. This seeking of
D:5.6 This seeking of completion through oneness, this joining, is a  true representation that shows you that completion does not come of
D:5.8 you are cause and effect. It is through the representation of the  true that the false is exposed as nothing. A lie is nothing but a
D:5.9 as it is the step necessary for the restoration of divine design.  True seeing facilitates the return to what is and we but proceed from
D:5.11 as it was intended and will represent the truth of who you are. This  true representation, being of the truth, returns you to the reality
D:5.19 to find release while still living in form. Thus we begin with the  true content of the form you occupy. We return the form you occupy to
D:6.2 of comparison—I compared the real to the unreal, the false to the  true, fear to love—in order to point out the insanity of your
D:6.2 false representation rather than let them go in order to embrace  true representation. In the time of learning, you were so entrenched
D:6.4 has brought a freedom and a liberation in which you rejoice. Your  true Self is beginning to reveal itself to you in ways of which you
D:6.24 You have replaced the personal self, the self of learning, with the  true Self. You have accepted your true identity. How could the body
D:6.24 the self of learning, with the true Self. You have accepted your  true identity. How could the body now be the same as it once was?
D:6.25 life span of the human being, but you increased not its capacity for  true living or true learning. And with the extended life span came
D:6.25 human being, but you increased not its capacity for true living or  true learning. And with the extended life span came extended reasons
D:6.26 The body is now the embodiment of the  true Self, the embodiment of love, the embodiment of divinity. Its
D:6.27 All of Everything that is the natural state of the formless. But the  true Self cannot cease to experience its natural state, the state of
D:6.27 unity, are both in existence right now. In the state of unity, your  true Self is fully aware of the elevated Self of form and is fully
D:6.27 that still exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the  true Self in time. What this means is that the elevated Self of form
D:7.12 as remembrance. Remembrance was necessary for your return to your  true identity, the Self as it was created. Remembrance was not about
D:8.2 first mentioned, and yet it seems too impossible, too “good” to be  true. You are too used to thinking of yourself as a learning being to
D:8.10 that comes from any place other than wholeheartedness is not the  true Self or the true expression of the Self but the self-expression
D:8.10 any place other than wholeheartedness is not the true Self or the  true expression of the Self but the self-expression that arises from
D:8.10 separation is still valuable, as it is a sign of yearning toward the  true Self and the true expression of the Self. Thus where you have
D:8.10 valuable, as it is a sign of yearning toward the true Self and the  true expression of the Self. Thus where you have desired to express
D:9.5 this was an accurate and truthful way of expressing what was  true for you as a learning being.
D:9.8 still a learning being were meant to allow you to come to know your  true identity. “A Treatise on the Art of Thought” was but a
D:9.9 The same is  true of the beliefs set forth in “A Treatise on the Nature of Unity
D:10.4 the work of the Self of union, the work that can fill you with the  true joy of true accomplishment, because it is your real work—work
D:10.4 the Self of union, the work that can fill you with the true joy of  true accomplishment, because it is your real work—work with what is.
D:10.7 In this time of Christ, discovery is about acceptance of your  true way of knowing, a way that existed prior to the time of learning
D:11.2 that differentiate you from others. Do you think the same is  true of you and me? It is that you think that differentiates you from
D:11.4 I said that you give and you receive from the well of spirit.  True giving and receiving is of unity. True giving and receiving is
D:11.4 from the well of spirit. True giving and receiving is of unity.  True giving and receiving is not of the separated thought of the
D:11.10 heart for answers. Yet your heart is the well of spirit from which  true answers are drawn. Your heart is a full well, a wellspring from
D:12.8 —to become a means of communication and exchange. The same is  true of the “thoughts” these words symbolize. Thus we continue to
D:12.11 descriptive of the ego mind; thoughts are more descriptive of the  true mind. I am not saying that your ego is still at work because you
D:12.11 does not serve you, you do have, right now, and have always had,  true thoughts that come to you from your Self, the Self joined in
D:12.14 used to—thoughts that you know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, are  true or right or accurate. They may be simple thoughts about a
D:12.15 authority of the truth simply because you have known that they are  true, and because you realized, as soon as the truth came into your
D:12.16 throughout this Course—that all doubt is doubt about yourself—is  true. If another challenges you, or if your own thinking challenges
D:12.17 that what I have said about your way of thinking being insane is  true. You think it is perfectly sane to go through life without
D:12.17 without knowing anything with certainty, when the reverse is what is  true. It is sane to know the truth. It is insane not to know the
D:14.5 as, “While I realize that the facts would tell me this or that is  true, I wonder what would happen if I disregarded the facts and was
D:15.11 all that is real. What is real is but another way of saying what is  true. What is true is eternal life, not temporal life. There are no
D:15.11 What is real is but another way of saying what is true. What is  true is eternal life, not temporal life. There are no degrees of

D:16.21 This image, being but an image, is incapable of  true joining in relationship. You must be fully present in order to

D:Day3.40 would likely say the entry point was the mind. This is, in a sense,  true, as wholeheartedness is comprised of the mind and heart joined
D:Day3.40 is comprised of the mind and heart joined in unity. It would be more  true to think of this joining as creating a portal of access, a new
D:Day3.42 which your wants find provision. It is the world of unity, the  true reality, through which your desires are responded to. This does
D:Day3.47 from somewhere else. This somewhere else we have defined as your  true reality, the reality of union. Living in this reality, the
D:Day3.54 do with great ideas and great talent is of consequence, and this is  true. A great idea or great talent that is not brought into form,
D:Day4.7 ideas about what it means to think. In evolutionary terms this was  true as well. Despite the creation story that symbolizes man’s
D:Day4.25 did not try hard enough, or pay enough attention to separating the  true from the false. But blaming yourself does no more good than
D:Day4.37 where your imagination is capable of taking you. It is a desire for  true discovery, a desire to access the previously unknown.

A.39 in all that you encounter, in all that you feel. It is a time of  true revelation in which you are revealed to your Self.

true identity (34)

C:P.3 then who is this Course and all other such courses for? Learning our  true identity, the identity of the Self that is capable of learning,
C:15.3 and unknown, and since this is a Course that seeks to reveal your  true identity, specialness must be seen for what it is so that you
C:20.24 This is the face of Christ where all being resides. This is your  true identity.
C:25.13 is a key purpose of the time of tenderness. You cannot realize your  true identity while you hang on to wounds of any kind. All wounds are
C:25.14 can only be claimed by those who recognize it as part of their  true identity. Invulnerability will then serve you and your brothers
C:27.10 Can you begin to visualize or perceive your  true identity as relationship itself? And what of God? Can you
C:31.11 your belief in your ego as yourself you will never realize your  true identity.
T2:11.7 the belief in separation and all that followed from it. Thus your  true identity must be recreated from the belief in unity that is
T2:11.7 all that opposes relationship, and the ego is all that opposes your  true identity.
T3:21.17 Now however, you are being called to accept your  true identity even while you retain the form of your personal self.
T3:21.17 even while you retain the form of your personal self. As your  true identity is that of a Self who exists in unity and the identity

T4:4.16 thinking. Have we not worked throughout this Course to return your  true identity to you now? The joining of heart and mind in
T4:8.17 only one purpose—the purpose of returning you to awareness of your  true identity. Be done with learning now as you accept who you truly

D:1.13 of light becomes a beacon as you open your heart and allow your  true identity to be what is, even within your form. You are in grace
D:1.23 exists outside or apart from yourself. If you fully accepted your  true identity, you would no longer look outside of yourself for

D:2.1 to take this Course into your heart and let it return you to your  true identity. Those of you who found within this willingness an
D:2.15 was learning. The function of all learning was to return you to your  true identity. Because we are working now for the integration of your

D:16.2 each of us, seemingly one at a time. Creation is our coming into our  true identity, and is the extension or expression of that identity
D:Day9.16 tool to call you to the learning that would return you to your  true identity. But the time for such tools is over.
D:Day10.22 answers that you seek lie within, and that their source is your own  true identity. You have been told since the beginning of this Course
D:Day15.28 has not been about becoming self-less but about realizing your  true identity. We have now debunked your myths about your true
D:Day15.28 your true identity. We have now debunked your myths about your  true identity being an idealized form of the self. Now are you ready,
A.24 who you truly are revealed. Being who you truly are, accepting your  true identity, is the goal of this Course and of this beginning level

true representation (10)

T3:1.1 that you may claim your personal self again and present to others a  true representation of who you are.
T3:1.2 While still a representation, there is a huge difference between a  true representation and a false representation.
T3:1.3 of the ego as the self is what has led to the world you see. A  true representation of the Self that you are is what we work toward
D:5.3 What we are doing now is returning the world to its  true representation. As was said in “A Treatise on the Personal
D:5.3 Treatise on the Personal Self”, there is a huge difference between a  true representation and a false representation. While the false
D:5.4 The world without was created as a  true representation of the world within, and as you become aware of
D:5.6 This seeking of completion through oneness, this joining, is a  true representation that shows you that completion does not come of
D:5.11 as it was intended and will represent the truth of who you are. This  true representation, being of the truth, returns you to the reality
D:6.2 false representation rather than let them go in order to embrace  true representation. In the time of learning, you were so entrenched
D:Day8.28 That they are but calling you to expression of your true Self! To  true representation of who you are—who you are now!

true self (67)

C:2.9 you constantly forget. This forgetting is the work of your ego. Your  true Self does not want to forget, and cannot for even the tiniest
C:2.9 tiniest fraction of a second. It is precisely the inability of your  true Self to forget that gives you hope of learning to recognize
C:10.9 for reward. As you feel yourself becoming closer to God and your  true Self, as you gain more awareness of yourself as a “good” person
C:15.3 While you desire specialness for yourself, your  true Self will remain hidden and unknown, and since this is a Course
C:15.3 that you will desire it no longer. You can have specialness or your  true Self, but never both. The desire for specialness is what calls
C:23.8 existing in relationship. This comes from ego rather than from the  true Self.
C:27.5 of the divine. You become confused between the personal self and a  true Self only because you have not as yet identified your true Self.
C:27.5 and a true Self only because you have not as yet identified your  true Self. Once you have identified your true Self all such confusion
C:27.5 not as yet identified your true Self. Once you have identified your  true Self all such confusion will end.
C:30.6 Universal consciousness is being in relationship. It is the  true Self, the known Self, in all its glorious relationship with
C:31.2 of the body, such as those of survival, are not the thoughts of the  true Self. This is the clarification that needs to be made for some
T1:2.4 from which all responses flow. As your heart is the Source of your  true Self, your thoughts, once removed from those of the ego-mind are
T1:2.4 from those of the ego-mind are the expression and extension of your  true Self. They are the answer of the Created to the Creator, the

T2:8.6 to the special relationships that would take you away from your  true Self. Never again will you be away from home for home is who you
T3:1.9 was who you were, was an illusion that blocked awareness of your  true Self from your mind. Your true Self is now ready to come out of
T3:1.9 that blocked awareness of your true Self from your mind. Your  true Self is now ready to come out of the mist of illusion in which
T3:3.6 are not loveable, only that you have not yet fully recognized your  true Self. Until you fully recognize your Self, you cannot fully love
T3:5.7 of the ego-self and to allow the personal self to live on as the one  true Self, the one true son of God. The gift of redemption was given
T3:7.6 many rooms and in some you were even capable of representing your  true Self. This representation of the true Self within the house of
T3:7.6 capable of representing your true Self. This representation of the  true Self within the house of illusion was like an explosion
T3:7.7 In the aftermath of the explosion, the representation of the  true Self settled like dust, and all the attention fell upon it. A
T3:8.9 As the representations of the  true Self within the house of illusion caused explosions and a
T3:8.9 explosions and a fallout of treasure, the representation of the  true Self within the House of Truth will cause the creation of the
T3:10.10 like all the rest of the ego’s thought system, was learned. Your  true Self has no cause for uncertainty. Thus you are called, as well,
T3:10.14 resist unlearning the ego thought system, the thought system of your  true Self will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon
T3:17.5 during the time of your experience in physical form. Since your  true Self could not learn the untrue, a new self, which we have
T3:17.5 ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the true, your  true Self had to be appealed to for this learning to take place.
T3:17.6 these stories, the Holy Spirit is always called upon to return the  true Self to the self of illusion. A Holy Spirit is called to return
T3:17.8 return of Christ, or your ability and willingness to live as your  true Self, to live in the House of Truth rather than the house of
T3:19.6 and perceived lack. Yet the body has no will and the survival of the  true Self is not based upon it.
T3:21.7 The only means for the personal self and the  true Self to exist together is for the truth to be lived in time. In

T4:4.17 Can you not see the necessity of removing the idea that your  true Self will be returned to you only through death? What purpose
T4:4.18 What purpose will death serve when your  true Self has joined with your physical form? You will see it simply
D:1.3 practical terms is that you let the personal self step back and the  true Self step forward. Realize that all of your “concerns” are still

D:4.16 believing the ego had become an externalized self took you, the  true Self and the true learner, out of the learning loop. Obviously
D:6.4 has brought a freedom and a liberation in which you rejoice. Your  true Self is beginning to reveal itself to you in ways of which you
D:6.24 You have replaced the personal self, the self of learning, with the  true Self. You have accepted your true identity. How could the body

D:8.10 that comes from any place other than wholeheartedness is not the  true Self or the true expression of the Self but the self-expression
D:8.10 separation is still valuable, as it is a sign of yearning toward the  true Self and the true expression of the Self. Thus where you have

C:31.22 Sharing is thus not about who you think you are, but about who you  truly are, and yet it is the way to learn the difference while
C:31.31 truth about your Self, for the truth does not change. And if who you  truly are is the truth, how can you be different? Thus it can be said
C:31.33 from you, and you seek the truth, or salvation from them, what is  truly occurring? How can this work? This is but another aspect of
C:32.1 Thus look not at the form in which a teacher arrives. It can  truly be said that all of life is your teacher. There is not one
T1:1.10 now, more and more, recognize only truth and experience only the  truly real.
T1:3.5 you begin to live as if the truth were otherwise can you see that it  truly is otherwise, or based on a wisdom other than what has come
T1:5.9 captive. Thus, your real Self is not present in the realm of the  truly real, but is actually present within the illusion. This is why
T1:7.1 condition of suffering is as the perceived inability to be who you  truly are, a being existing in union. Take away all, for the moment,
T1:10.10 the Peace of God. But look past what you have remembered to what was  truly there. No moment of true learning ever arrived without the
T2:1.6 place in the sense that you have imagined it. Even rest, once  truly learned, is simply rest. It is not a resting place, a place to
T2:1.6 It is not a point at which you arrive, never to depart. Rest, when  truly learned, is a state of being in which struggle has ceased and
T2:4.3 A Course of Love then followed in order to reveal to you who you  truly are. While you continue to act within the world as who you

T2:12.11 through its denial of the relationships essential to that which you  truly are.
T2:13.4 not that I was different than you and you will realize that we are  truly one in being with our Father. As you move into the world with

T4:2.15 the Self that you are now was not present in the past, but you can  truly now, with the devotion of the observant, see that the Self you
T4:2.29 called to see without judgment. To see without judgment is to see  truly. You need not look for good or bad, but only need be steadily
T4:3.10 you to see the nature of the world and all that exists within it  truly. Observation will allow you to elevate the personal self to its
T4:5.10 for Christ-consciousness, to make the choice to be aware of who you  truly are. To know your Self as my brother or sister in Christ; to be
T4:5.13 Many of you have thought of it as a time of judgment. But I tell you  truly; it is no different than the time that is upon you right now.
T4:8.17 your true identity. Be done with learning now as you accept who you  truly are.
T4:12.25 to the dawning of the consciousness of unity. Realize that it is a  truly new state, a state that cannot be learned, a state the

D:3.8 These are really not new ideas, however, but rather ideas of who you  truly are birthed within the self of form so that the Self and the
D:3.9 Ideas of who you  truly are, birthed by the wholehearted self in union with all, are
D:5.2 distortions occurred as you assigned meaning or “truth” to things,  truly believing in your ability to do so. You thus determined what
D:5.7 produce the desired effect of creating desire for oneness if you  truly saw and understood the body and its acts as representative of

D:6.4 ego as the self, the body, given your choice to return to who you  truly are while still in form, continues, while the ego, of course,

D:6.6 to be. There is thus truth, or what we might call the seeds of the  truly real, or the energy of creation, in everything that exists in
D:6.10 are the laws of God. Although science is beginning to see much as it  truly is, scientists still look for natural laws that govern what is
D:6.27 The self of form, as form, could never  truly experience the All of Everything that is the natural state of
D:7.2 aspect of creation and thus of the state of union in which you  truly abide.
D:7.9 only aspects of wholeness you have not seen content nor matter  truly. You have not been aware of all that you are. You are thus now
D:7.16 until your vision is released from old patterns and guides you more  truly.
D:8.2 You are too used to thinking of yourself as a learning being to  truly experience the freedom of not being bound by this constraint.
D:9.3 defined and acted upon, would fulfill you, allow you to be who you  truly are, end your confusion, and give you peace to usher in the new.
D:10.3 state of these givens that allows expression of what is given to  truly come through you and express the Self, because joyous

D:12.4 joined in unity and became capable of hearing the same language, you  truly began to enter the place of unity, to take the step outside of
D:13.8 thoughts, and with the idea that no one will ever be able to  truly know you. But join with others who are experiencing the
D:13.8 the evidence to the contrary will be overwhelming. You will begin to  truly understand that you are not alone and separate, and that even
D:13.12 functions. By being who you are, and seeing others as who they  truly are, you create the relationship in which sharing can occur.
D:17.23 question, but even the specific questions of myth, when seen  truly, were questions of the heart, calling only for response from
D:Day3.1 in both an old and a new way. Let me suggest to you what it is  truly all about. It is about the way you have learned and your lack

D:Day3.22 is contingent upon having the “means” to pursue it, and few of you  truly think that money would not solve most of your problems. Even
D:Day3.29 you have learned the secret of money, the secret of success: Answer  truly if you really believe this, or if you are merely covering over
D:Day4.44 misery you have known and the beginning of new life. And I tell you  truly, here is where this new life either begins or is once again

D:Day6.14 spoken of in our conversations would be there if only you could be  truly “taken away” from it all and experience nothing but our
D:Day6.21 This place within is what we are creating here. It is a  truly elevated place. It is as real as a mountain top, in fact much
D:Day6.32 and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the time of learning  truly is behind you.
D:Day8.4 only then—when you have accepted how you feel—can you respond  truly. Only when you have accepted how you feel do you quit labeling
D:Day8.9 not to participate, judge, or appear to accept that which you do not  truly find acceptable.
D:Day8.11 This acceptance is the only thing that will  truly prevent judgment, for it does not require you to be your

D:Day32.15 if separation had severed relationship, then separation would  truly exist. Each entity or being would be singular and alone. Yet
D:Day33.8 How, then, do you respond? If you respond as who you  truly are, you respond with love. Love is the only response.
D:Day35.20 called upon to create as you have been, but to create as who you  truly are being. You are called to nothing short of creating a new

C:10.13 that belief is unwarranted? What if you are trusting and find that  trust to be misplaced? What if you are simply naïve and are taken for
C:13.6 told here. All that is required to gather this new evidence is to  trust in your own heart. Are you willing to believe what your heart
C:13.11 Oh yes, and rightly so. Gladly will you let them go and, if you  trust yourself, all the evidence against your brother that you have
C:14.20 pledges and promises made. Others may deny their fear, and say they  trust in what they have and the faithfulness of the one they love.
C:14.20 Fewer than these are those who do not need to voice their faith and  trust, for their feelings remain strong despite their fear. For even

T2:7.19 discipline required to be who you are is a discipline that requires  trust in Self and honesty in relationships. Does this mean that you
T2:9.16 only continue to be brought to your awareness as needs until your  trust in their immediate and ongoing fulfillment is complete. Once

C:7.23 Start with this idea: You will allow for the possibility of a new  truth to be revealed to your waiting heart. Hold in your heart the
C:7.23 read these words—and when you finish reading these words—their  truth will be revealed to you. Let your heart be open to a new kind
C:7.23 your heart be open to a new kind of evidence of what constitutes the  truth. Think of no other outcomes than your happiness, and when
C:8.1 your heart, are what we will now work with, separating as we do the  truth from your perception of it.
C:8.3 that we will speak of here as being of the highest level, though in  truth, no levels separate union at all. As a learning being, the idea
C:8.10 or relationship. Often this search is called seeking for the  truth. While the way in which you go about seeking for the truth in
C:8.10 for the truth. While the way in which you go about seeking for the  truth in places it is not causes it to remain hidden from you, your
C:8.10 is not causes it to remain hidden from you, your recognition that a  truth is available in a place other than on the surface is useful to
C:8.11 a heart or mind? Without union all your seeking will not reveal the  truth. And while there is a part of you that knows this, you prefer
C:8.11 cause. You look for explanations and information rather than the  truth you claim to seek. You look in judgment rather than in
C:8.11 you knew how this union worked you would surely use it to find the  truth, and for other objectives as well. You would like to be a
C:8.11 a person who could, as in a court of law, separate right from wrong,  truth from lies, fact from fiction. You do not even see that what you
C:8.11 is further separation, and that separation cannot bring about the  truth nor arise from unity.
C:8.15 what appears to be and no more. Let it not keep you from seeing the  truth, as you do not let other surface conditions hide the truth from
C:8.15 the truth, as you do not let other surface conditions hide the  truth from you. Even if you have not formerly found the truth, you
C:8.15 hide the truth from you. Even if you have not formerly found the  truth, you have recognized what is not the truth. Your body is not
C:8.15 not formerly found the truth, you have recognized what is not the  truth. Your body is not the truth of who you are, no matter how much
C:8.15 you have recognized what is not the truth. Your body is not the  truth of who you are, no matter how much it appears to be. For now,
C:8.16 it too would be real. Just as if a surface situation contained the  truth, it would be the truth. If your body and what lies within it
C:8.16 Just as if a surface situation contained the truth, it would be the  truth. If your body and what lies within it are not who you are, you

C:8.17 think this is incongruous with the truth as I’m revealing it, the  truth that heaven is your home, but it is not. There is no here in
C:8.24 created in God’s likeness. This image is based on your memory of the  truth of God’s creation and your desire to create like your Father.
C:8.26 least one long remembered incident that when given to the light of  truth revealed a lie of outlandish proportions. These are the
C:8.26 memories of loved ones you were sure were trying to hurt you when in  truth they were only trying to help. The memories of situations you
C:8.26 situations you deemed meant to embarrass or destroy you that were in  truth meant to teach you what you needed to learn to lead you to a
C:8.27 you retain to the smallest detail, and yet the details mask the  truth so thoroughly that all truth is given over to illusion.
C:8.27 detail, and yet the details mask the truth so thoroughly that all  truth is given over to illusion.
C:8.29 This is the  truth of your existence, an existence in which your eyes deceive you
C:8.29 believes not in the deception. Your days are but evidence of this  truth. What your eyes behold will one day deceive you while what your
C:9.8 that you believe it is what you are, rather than believing in the  truth. But just as you have done this, you can undo this. This is the
C:9.8 on believing in the illusion you have made, or to begin to see the  truth.
C:9.12 illusions concerning it, when undone, will quickly reveal to you the  truth because your misperceptions concerning your heart remain closer
C:9.12 your misperceptions concerning your heart remain closer to the  truth than any that you hold. The memories of your heart are the
C:9.14 this insane situation are guided by memories trying to reveal the  truth to you. They call to you from a place that you know not. The
C:9.16 love. Fear is thus the source of all illusion, love the source of  truth.
C:9.19 It has been said often that cause and effect are one in  truth. The world you see is the effect of fear. Each one of you would
C:9.24 accomplish what you seek is the replacement of illusion with the  truth, the replacement of fear with love, the replacement of your
C:9.35 of forgiveness upon you and your world. While there is no need in  truth for this forgiveness, as there is no truth to this big change
C:9.35 While there is no need in truth for this forgiveness, as there is no  truth to this big change that you believe you have undergone, your
C:9.36 of union to you. This memory of your divinity is what you seek in  truth from each special relationship you enter into, but your true
C:10.2 to you. As much as I would like it to be so, my telling you the  truth of your existence is not enough of itself to make you aware of
C:10.2 you where to look, and save you countless years of seeking where the  truth is not, if you will but seek where I bid you find.
C:10.3 you hold so dear. Your thought system is completely alien to the  truth, but completely consistent as a system. You cannot abandon one
C:10.3 but neither can you learn of it in parts. The thought system of  truth is as wholly consistent as the thought system of illusion, and
C:10.4 is at the source, and this is as true of illusion as of the  truth. You see your body as your self, and your self as “source” of
C:10.4 but in the eternal wholeness in which God and you together exist in  truth.
C:11.12 your free will like unto your Father’s will, which is one with it in  truth.
C:11.16 that comes not from weakness but from strength, and that goes out to  truth and not illusion. It is a call whose answer will come to you
C:12.16 heart. So we continue, realizing that these words can express the  truth only within their ability as symbols, and that farther than
C:12.16 symbols, and that farther than where these symbols can take you, the  truth lies within your Self.
C:12.23 Separation is painful only to those who believe it can occur in  truth. What would a child’s rejection or a parent’s death mean to
C:13.6 or verifiable, will offer you the evidence you seek to confirm the  truth of what you are being told here. All that is required to gather
C:13.9 guide you gently back to where you want to be and already are in  truth.
C:14.8 chaos for the laws of reason. The laws of illusion for the laws of  truth.
C:14.24 your world, each purpose is as senseless and as reversed from the  truth as is the next.
C:14.25 to it than you are. While you realize not the purpose of anything in  truth, you cannot know love or your own Self.
C:14.27 relationship with your brother, which is the only one you have in  truth. Only this relationship is real, and in it are included all
C:15.6 yet this is but a fraction of who your specialness influences. In  truth, your specialness affects everyone.
C:15.11 all they would hold dear. But which would you rather betray? The  truth or illusion? You cannot be loyal to both, and herein lies your
C:15.11 or abandon hope of receiving. And so you choose illusion over  truth and betray all that you are and the hope your brother has
C:15.12 to hell. But it also is not a difficult choice, nor one that is in  truth yours alone to make. This choice cannot be made without your
C:16.6 for is what you will find, but finding it does not make it the  truth, except as it is the truth about what you choose to see. Your
C:16.6 find, but finding it does not make it the truth, except as it is the  truth about what you choose to see. Your choice lies with God or with
C:16.10 and two sides that oppose each other. How can this be reason? The  truth opposes nothing, nor does love.
C:16.12 would enumerate. True forgiveness simply looks past illusion to the  truth where there are no sins to be forgiven, no wrongs to be
C:16.15 proof before you can believe or accept something as a fact or as the  truth, and certainly before you can act upon it, you live as if you
C:18.19 Your lack of recognition can thus be overcome by remembering the  truth of what you are.
C:18.22 body’s function to go unrecognized. You thus have not recognized the  truth of what causes pain nor that you can reject the experience of
C:19.4 the world that was created for your learning, and that so exists in  truth. It is not the only world by any means, but it is still heaven
C:19.20 go away. This going back will leave you debt free and thus free in  truth.
C:19.21 journey without distance. You need not go in search of it, and in  truth, cannot, for the past does not abide in you. What you need
C:19.22 as it has been described, a sorting of the real from the unreal, of  truth from illusion. Despite the similarity between what this will
C:20.31 fear and rejected love. Now the reverse is true. This reversal of  truth has changed the nature of your universe and the laws by which
C:20.48 thought at all, but is beyond thought. It is not wisdom but the  truth. The truth is that which exists. The false is illusion. Love is
C:20.48 at all, but is beyond thought. It is not wisdom but the truth. The  truth is that which exists. The false is illusion. Love is all that
C:21.7 this conflict-inducing situation. You accept that your mind sees one  truth and your heart another, and you act anyway! You act without
C:21.9 while only a wholehearted approach will determine true meaning, the  truth is the truth and does not change. Only unity, however, allows
C:21.9 wholehearted approach will determine true meaning, the truth is the  truth and does not change. Only unity, however, allows you to see the
C:21.9 and does not change. Only unity, however, allows you to see the  truth and to claim it as your discovery and your truth as well as
C:21.9 you to see the truth and to claim it as your discovery and your  truth as well as universal truth. Seeing the truth returns you to
C:21.9 to claim it as your discovery and your truth as well as universal  truth. Seeing the truth returns you to unity and to true
C:21.9 your discovery and your truth as well as universal truth. Seeing the  truth returns you to unity and to true communication or communion
C:21.9 always been meant to symbolize the unity of those who know the one  truth.
C:21.10 Knowing the one  truth is not about knowing a certain dogma or a set of facts. Those
C:21.10 about knowing a certain dogma or a set of facts. Those who know the  truth do not see themselves as right and others as wrong. Those who
C:21.10 not see themselves as right and others as wrong. Those who know the  truth find it for themselves by joining mind and heart. Those who
C:21.10 find it for themselves by joining mind and heart. Those who know the  truth become beings of love and light and see the same loving truth
C:21.10 the truth become beings of love and light and see the same loving  truth in all.
C:22.18 being talked about. The first we talked of earlier as the finding of  truth. The second is what we are talking of here, the finding of a
C:22.22 a first step in going beyond meaning as definition to meaning as  truth. As odd and impersonal as it will seem at first, I assure you
C:23.13 the creation of form of another kind. A wholehearted belief in the  truth about your Self is what is required to cause this to be so. It
C:23.27 truly choose to change your beliefs and move on to the new or the  truth.
C:27.10 your mind to accept all relationship instead? If all meaning and all  truth lies in relationship, can you be other than relationship
C:27.12 you do not understand does not mean that you are not learning the  truth. You do not understand because you think in terms of
C:27.12 on your thinking. Again you are bidden to turn to your heart for the  truth that is hidden there yet waiting to be revealed. Your heart
C:28.1 to what you have learned. As this Course bears witness to the  truth, thus must your lives bear witness. Lest this too be distorted,
C:28.2 and it is not meant to be thus. How, then, you might ask, is the  truth brought to those still living in illusion?
C:30.7 dying to the body. The person who knows, truly knows, the simplest  truth of the identity of the Self no longer lives in a dualistic
C:30.9 traveled far from words of love, words promised and words given in  truth. For no love is finite in nature. Love has no beginning and no
C:30.14 they cannot go unfulfilled. Giving and receiving are thus one in  truth. God’s laws are generalizable and do not change, and thus the
C:31.3 How silly is it to be afraid of the  truth? Fear of the truth is like a fear of the impossible being
C:31.3 How silly is it to be afraid of the truth? Fear of the  truth is like a fear of the impossible being possible. Like the fear
C:31.7 your understanding of you. Form mimics content. Form mimics the  truth, but does not replace it.
C:31.8 The rest of your world imitates  truth as well. You live on one world, one planet, one Earth. You may
C:31.11 perception of your thoughts as yourself is the closest answer to the  truth that you were able, in your limited view of yourself, to come
C:31.14 clings to the idea of separation, and thus cannot grasp the basic  truth of your existence: that giving and receiving are one in truth.
C:31.14 basic truth of your existence: that giving and receiving are one in  truth. Put another way, all this says is that in order to be your
C:31.16 ego that deems honesty a game; the ego that you let decide upon your  truth. For what you live is what you believe is the truth about
C:31.16 decide upon your truth. For what you live is what you believe is the  truth about yourself. While you continue to live dishonestly, your
C:31.18 The  truth is your identity. Honesty is being free of deception. You, who
C:31.19 You cannot be honest while you do not know the  truth about yourself. If you remembered your Self, notions such as
C:31.20 ashamed of, nothing to keep hidden, leaving you with nothing but the  truth of who you are. Thus, what you give through sharing you gain in
C:31.20 of who you are. Thus, what you give through sharing you gain in  truth. No other type of gain is possible.
C:31.21 which brought to love are accomplished and simply become the  truth that has always existed about who you are.
C:31.23 which the holy relationship you have with everything is revealed in  truth. This truth lies within everything that exists, as it lies
C:31.23 relationship you have with everything is revealed in truth. This  truth lies within everything that exists, as it lies within you. As
C:31.23 love, no deception is possible, and you can only be who you are in  truth.
C:31.24 What you gain in  truth is never lost or forgotten again, because it returns
C:31.25 Your ego thoughts can never share the  truth with you nor with anyone else. The ego invented the idea of
C:31.25 you nor with anyone else. The ego invented the idea of “telling” the  truth and using it as an opposite to telling an untruth or lie. Thus
C:31.25 an untruth or lie. Thus were born ideas of being able to keep  truth a secret, one of the most ridiculous ideas of the ego thought
C:31.26 Your past has nothing to do with the  truth about who you are, except in the degree to which it has or has
C:31.26 has not helped you to remember who you are. What you have learned in  truth resides in your mind as a part of you. What you have not yet
C:31.26 other words, awaits the transfer of your feelings and experience to  truth, and thus to your mind. Only the truth abides within your mind,
C:31.26 feelings and experience to truth, and thus to your mind. Only the  truth abides within your mind, for only it can enter the holy altar
C:31.27 This altar is not a thing, but a devotion to the one  truth, the whole truth. Being of one mind is being of one truth, and
C:31.27 This altar is not a thing, but a devotion to the one truth, the whole  truth. Being of one mind is being of one truth, and how can you be of
C:31.27 to the one truth, the whole truth. Being of one mind is being of one  truth, and how can you be of anything less? Only the ego sprang from
C:31.27 that created the illusion of separate minds and varying degrees of  truth.
C:31.28 not what you seek, what you find varies. Since there is only one  truth, finding a variety of answers means nothing. If you but change
C:31.29 and sisters want to see, they can learn nothing from you. If your  truth about who you think you are changes day-to-day, you are
C:31.31 When you find the  truth of any brother or sister, you find the truth about your Self,
C:31.31 When you find the truth of any brother or sister, you find the  truth about your Self, for the truth does not change. And if who you
C:31.31 any brother or sister, you find the truth about your Self, for the  truth does not change. And if who you truly are is the truth, how can
C:31.31 Self, for the truth does not change. And if who you truly are is the  truth, how can you be different? Thus it can be said that the truth
C:31.31 is the truth, how can you be different? Thus it can be said that the  truth and the mind are one in truth. The truth is what is. What is
C:31.31 Thus it can be said that the truth and the mind are one in  truth. The truth is what is. What is not the truth is illusion. Does
C:31.31 it can be said that the truth and the mind are one in truth. The  truth is what is. What is not the truth is illusion. Does this not
C:31.31 and the mind are one in truth. The truth is what is. What is not the  truth is illusion. Does this not make perfect sense?
C:31.32 It is in this perfect sense of the perfect sanity of  truth that salvation lies. Salvation is simply your return to your
C:31.33 If your sister and brother seek the  truth, or salvation, from you, and you seek the truth, or salvation
C:31.33 and brother seek the truth, or salvation, from you, and you seek the  truth, or salvation from them, what is truly occurring? How can this
C:31.33 This is but another aspect of giving and receiving being one in  truth. Giving and receiving are both taking place, both at the same
C:31.34 to know, or remember, who you are. It is in your recognition of the  truth about your brother and sister that you recognize the truth
C:31.34 of the truth about your brother and sister that you recognize the  truth about your Self. It is only in relationship that this occurs,
C:32.2 seek the wisdom of your heart you call upon me. When you seek the  truth that is in your mind, you call upon the Holy Spirit. Thus is
C:32.2 that you are of one Mind and one Heart, and that regardless of this  truth you will not, in coming to know and experience this, lose your
C:32.3 Thus we end this Course with love given and love received in  truth. You are the learner here until you realize that you are Love.
T1:1.4 It is in the present-moment experience memory provides that  truth rather than illusion can now be experienced and learned from.
T1:1.5 All that you have experienced in  truth is love. All that illusion provided you with was nothing. Thus
T1:1.5 remember and re-experience is that of separating illusion from the  truth. This act will require no effort for what you have learned in
T1:1.5 if you trust your heart, be perfectly able to identify illusion and  truth. This is a simple act of recognizing meaning. All that you
T1:1.6 and learning goals of this Course. The mechanics of the mind can in  truth be left behind now as we concentrate rather on the art of
T1:1.10 that knows no bounds, “this is what it is to experience and know the  truth. This is what it is to create, for this is what it is like to
T1:1.10 the mind joined in union will now, more and more, recognize only  truth and experience only the truly real.
T1:1.12 Be willing now to apply the art of thought to the experience of  truth.
T1:2.1 that needs to come to an end. This ending is but a beginning in  truth and has led you to readiness to learn the art of thought.
T1:2.3 To experience the  truth and apply to that experience the thoughts of the ego-mind, the
T1:2.3 the same thoughts that were applied to former experiences of the  truth, would be to respond to love the same way again. The questions
T1:2.6 lifetime deadened many of your feelings. It led you so far from the  truth that you no longer trust in it. It confused the smallest issues
T1:2.7 further entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you could learn the  truth of who you are through these same means was the fallacy that
T1:2.11 by the simple statement of giving and receiving being one in  truth. The implications of this statement are far broader than at
T1:3.1 learning. They are but opportunities to replace illusion with the  truth so that the truth of who you are is all that remains.
T1:3.1 are but opportunities to replace illusion with the truth so that the  truth of who you are is all that remains.
T1:3.2 how different from the experience of illusion is the experience of  truth is the same as seeing how different the art of thought is from
T1:3.3 the higher order. Because of all of this, it cannot experience the  truth and so exists in illusion.
T1:3.4 The experience of  truth dispels illusion and thus the ego-mind. The art of thought
T1:3.5 that depends on it. How can you be convinced to live as if the  truth were otherwise? For only if you begin to live as if the truth
T1:3.5 if the truth were otherwise? For only if you begin to live as if the  truth were otherwise can you see that it truly is otherwise, or based
T1:3.6 The only way for you to come to live in  truth is through faith; not a faith in what might be, but a faith in
T1:4.2 order for all your thoughts to become the miracles that express the  truth of who you are. This Treatise will put your instruction fully
T1:4.17 but lead to a continuation of the belief in different forms of the  truth.
T1:4.18 is being taught here in order to prevent just such a conclusion. The  truth is the truth and not dependent upon your definition of it. A

T1:4.21 the thinking of the ego-mind. The art of thought will reveal the  truth to you. The thinking of the ego-mind would simply reinterpret
T1:4.22 self-congratulation in favor of Self-revelation. The saying, “The  truth shall be revealed to you” is the same as saying “Your Self
T1:5.4 would fear that may actually grow stronger as you get closer to the  truth. This is the part of you that believes this communication
T1:5.8 In order to experience the  truth, you must move into a state that is real. Nothing is as real as
T1:5.10 with the only thought system that is real, the thought system of the  truth. How could a thought system based on anything but the truth
T1:5.10 of the truth. How could a thought system based on anything but the  truth lead to anything but illusion?
T1:6.1 and this is why it can be unlearned. The thought system of the  truth is always present as the truth is always present and can be
T1:6.1 unlearned. The thought system of the truth is always present as the  truth is always present and can be neither learned nor unlearned. It

T1:6.2 Said in another way, prayer reproduces the truth and allows the  truth to exist as it is. Prayer does this because it is the act of
T1:6.2 Only from within a state that is real can anything happen in  truth.
T1:6.4 came about, as it is, like much you have learned, close to the  truth without being the truth.
T1:6.4 is, like much you have learned, close to the truth without being the  truth.
T1:7.2 suffering. Even those who understand as completely as possible the  truth of who they are accept suffering. My use of the word accept is
T1:7.2 health is disease; the absence of peace is conflict, the absence of  truth illusion. This belief does not accept that there is only one
T1:7.4 matter how effective they were and no matter how much they spoke the  truth will be to not learn the new.
T1:8.3 are the greatest of changes seen. Thus the understanding of the  truth of an historical event changes over time and it may take a
T1:8.3 take a hundred or a thousand or even two thousand years for the real  truth to be realized. Even though many versions of the truth have
T1:8.3 for the real truth to be realized. Even though many versions of the  truth have been accepted previously, there is only one truth. There
T1:8.3 of the truth have been accepted previously, there is only one  truth. There was only one truth at the time the event or change took
T1:8.3 accepted previously, there is only one truth. There was only one  truth at the time the event or change took place, and there is only
T1:8.3 at the time the event or change took place, and there is only one  truth in time or eternity regardless of the variety of
T1:8.3 time or eternity regardless of the variety of interpretations of the  truth.
T1:8.4 I have come to you now to reveal the one  truth that has existed for the past two thousand years without your
T1:8.11 within which you live. In other words you live as much by myth as by  truth and myth often more accurately reflects the truth than what you
T1:8.11 much by myth as by truth and myth often more accurately reflects the  truth than what you would call real. This is not a call, however, to
T1:8.11 This is not a call, however, to embrace myth, but to embrace the  truth.
T1:8.16 state. It is one more demonstration of cause and effect being one in  truth. It is one more demonstration of what needs to occur now, in
T1:8.16 of what needs to occur now, in this time, in order for the  truth of the resurrection to be revealed and lived.
T1:9.2 Whether you be male or female matters not, as you are in  truth, the union of each. The end of separation that brought about
T1:9.6 and a receiver. You knew that giving and receiving makes one in  truth. This is your recreation of this universal truth. You
T1:9.6 makes one in truth. This is your recreation of this universal  truth. You remembered that something does not come from nothing and
T1:9.8 for the Self to be birthed, giving and receiving must be one in  truth. Yet it seems there must be one to give and one to receive. You
T1:9.8 the Christ within you does this giving and receiving become one in  truth.
T1:10.13 not chosen yet to accept your inheritance. Yet let the memory of the  truth return to you now and you will see that peace is all you have
T2:2.8 All of you are capable of hearing the  truth of what the heart would tell you. All of you are just as
T2:2.8 would tell you. All of you are just as capable of believing in that  truth as of doubting it. All that prevents you from believing in
T2:2.8 truth as of doubting it. All that prevents you from believing in  truth is a mind and heart acting in separation rather than in union.
T2:3.4 of Love and is returned to now for a specific reason. While the  truth that it is the Christ in you that learns may have been given
T2:4.8 is one that recognizes that giving and receiving are the same in  truth.
T2:5.7 Until you have fully integrated the  truth that giving and receiving are one, you will not fully believe
T2:5.7 that needs are not lacks. Until you have fully integrated the  truth that giving and receiving are one, you will not realize that
T2:7.11 who you are. This relates to giving and receiving being one in  truth in a very concrete way. For to go out into the world with the
T2:7.13 doing good works. This is about being who you are and seeing the  truth rather than the illusion that surrounds you. You cannot, in
T2:7.14 all “others” is to believe in giving and receiving being one in  truth.
T2:7.19 cannot long abide in the holy place of your heart. Then, with  truth and illusion separated, you develop the discipline to express
T2:7.20 the acceptance of the belief that giving and receiving are one in  truth changes the function of time as you know it. There is not a
T2:7.21 experience. As you experience giving and receiving being one in  truth, your belief will become true conviction. Your ability to
T2:7.21 aspect of your identity and accepted as the nature of who you are in  truth.
T2:8.1 no relationships are special. Your loyalty must be totally to the  truth of who you are and not continue to be split by special
T2:8.2 Remember too the practice of devotion for in this practice is the  truth separated from illusion.
T2:8.4 to know your Self and to act on this knowing. These are calls to  truth and but take the form of honesty for a brief time as the truth
T2:8.4 to truth and but take the form of honesty for a brief time as the  truth of who you are is revealed to you and through your
T2:8.5 or expected of you. This is an acceptance that you know your own  truth and an acceptance that that truth will not change. As we have
T2:8.5 acceptance that you know your own truth and an acceptance that that  truth will not change. As we have said that you are not called to a
T2:8.6 It was said often within A Course of Love that the  truth does not change. Thus the truth of who you are has not changed
T2:8.6 within A Course of Love that the truth does not change. Thus the  truth of who you are has not changed and you are as you were created.
T2:8.6 must be fully realized here in order for you to accept the  truth of who you are and to come to an acceptance of the unchangeable
T2:8.6 are and to come to an acceptance of the unchangeable nature of this  truth. This is akin to being done with seeking. This is the final
T2:8.6 found. You need no longer journey onto the paths of seeking. The  truth of yourself that you reveal now will not become a new truth as
T2:8.6 The truth of yourself that you reveal now will not become a new  truth as you take a new path. Your path now is sure and its final
T2:9.19 old ways of thinking leave you, you will be left as who you are in  truth.
T2:10.7 variety and level of experience. Yet no one can know more of the  truth than another, and no one can know less.
T2:10.8 Just beyond your mind’s ability to call it forth lies the  truth that you and all other beings know. The access to what seems to
T2:10.14 through each day and all the experiences within it as who you are in  truth. It releases you from the feeling of needing to control or
T2:11.1 This is how you were created and how you remain. This is the  truth of who you are and even, in your own terms, a fact of your
T2:11.1 extend forgiveness to yourself and all you hold responsible for this  truth. This forgiveness has now extended in two distinct ways. First
T2:11.4 and the only thing given by you the power to do battle with the  truth, or with God. Remember now and always that you and God are one
T2:11.5 A God of love does not do battle for  truth needs no protection. The truth is not threatened by untruth.
T2:11.5 A God of love does not do battle for truth needs no protection. The  truth is not threatened by untruth. The truth simply exists as love
T2:11.5 needs no protection. The truth is not threatened by untruth. The  truth simply exists as love exists and as you exist. When we say
T2:11.5 something is, this is what it is of which we speak. When we say all  truth is generalizable, all needs are shared, all knowing is shared,
T2:11.12 still exist in relationship. This is the key to understanding the  truth of these statements. For even while you have chosen separation,
T2:11.12 that this has occurred; that what could never be true has become the  truth.
T2:12.4 They do not take away free will but free the will to respond to  truth. They are the ultimate acceptance of giving and receiving being
T2:12.4 are the ultimate acceptance of giving and receiving being one in  truth.
T2:12.6 belief in the miracle to simply knowing. Knowing is knowing the  truth. Knowing is right-thinking. Your return to knowing or
T2:13.4 put forth in this Treatise. Know that, in the time of unity, the  truth will be shared by all.
T3:1.4 A representation of the  truth not only reveals the truth but becomes the truth. A
T3:1.4 A representation of the truth not only reveals the  truth but becomes the truth. A representation of what is not the
T3:1.4 of the truth not only reveals the truth but becomes the  truth. A representation of what is not the truth reveals only
T3:1.4 the truth but becomes the truth. A representation of what is not the  truth reveals only illusion and becomes illusion. Thus, as your
T3:1.4 Thus, as your personal self becomes a representation of the  truth it will become who you are in truth.
T3:1.4 becomes a representation of the truth it will become who you are in  truth.
T3:1.5 toward this goal is in developing an awareness of what is not the  truth. While the ability to distinguish between the true and the
T3:1.7 you who has not begun to experience the transformation that is, in  truth, occurring, although you may not as yet have seen the changes
T3:1.8 existed as more than a representation. While when joined with the  truth, this representation will be acknowledged as what it is and as
T3:1.8 this representation will be acknowledged as what it is and as the  truth of who you are, to erroneously have seen your former
T3:1.8 erroneously have seen your former representation of illusion as the  truth of who you are is what has led to your perception of the world
T3:1.9 the mist of illusion in which it was hidden and to be represented in  truth by the form you occupy and have previously seen as the reality
T3:1.12 To become a whole Self, with no parts hidden, a Self with no parts in  truth, is the task that I set before you and am here to help you
T3:1.13 done. We work with what we have, a form fully able to represent the  truth and, in so doing, we bring the truth to life and life to the
T3:1.13 fully able to represent the truth and, in so doing, we bring the  truth to life and life to the truth.
T3:1.13 truth and, in so doing, we bring the truth to life and life to the  truth.
T3:2.2 value. Art is a representation but it also becomes something in  truth, something that has been named art. Art becomes something in
T3:2.2 truth, something that has been named art. Art becomes something in  truth by expanding awareness, or in other words, by making something
T3:2.5 to be one with God no longer. This could not be further from the  truth and is the cause of all your suffering, for contained within
T3:2.6 We leave all of this behind now as we advance toward  truth through returning to original purpose. Your return to your
T3:2.6 unaltered state that your personal self can begin to represent the  truth for it leaves untruth, or the ego, behind. It is only this one,
T3:2.6 or the ego, behind. It is only this one, unaltered Self that is the  truth of who you are and who your brothers and sisters are as well.
T3:2.7 And yet the  truth has as many ways of being represented as does illusion.
T3:2.8 all that you call self is Self, even while both may represent the  truth as you perceive of it. Representing the truth as you perceive
T3:2.8 both may represent the truth as you perceive of it. Representing the  truth as you perceive it to be has been the righteous work of many
T3:2.8 many who have caused great harm to others and the world. There is no  truth to be found in illusion and so no representations of perceived
T3:2.8 truth to be found in illusion and so no representations of perceived  truth, no matter how intensely they have been championed, have truly
T3:2.9 to the self but only accurate or inaccurate representations of the  truth. Inaccurate representations of the truth simply have no meaning
T3:2.9 representations of the truth. Inaccurate representations of the  truth simply have no meaning and no matter how much one might try to
T3:2.9 found there. The meaningless has no ability to change the meaning of  truth. And so your Self has remained unaltered as has all to which
T3:2.10 it. You stand empty of untruth and about to embark on the journey of  truth. You stand in the transformational moment between the unreal
T3:3.6 This is the vengeful self we eliminate now. You have, in  truth, replaced judgment with forgiveness, but you have not yet fully
T3:3.6 cannot fully love yourself. Until you fully love, you do not love in  truth.
T3:3.7 Both God and Love are found in relationship where the  truth becomes known to you. When the truth becomes known to you, you
T3:3.7 found in relationship where the truth becomes known to you. When the  truth becomes known to you, you know God for you know love. Beliefs,
T3:3.8 that calls to you. You can only get there by being who you are in  truth.
T3:4.1 you to sanity by calling you to let go of illusion in favor of the  truth.
T3:4.7 replacement that will work is the replacement of illusion with the  truth. The very purpose of this Treatise is to prevent the
T3:5.1 in the hopes of filling the emptiness with the fullness of the  truth.
T3:5.8 What this means is that the illusion will be no more and  truth will reign. Such is the reign of God.
T3:7.1 speaking here of ideas. God’s thought of you is an idea of absolute  truth. Your existence derives from this idea and this truth. The
T3:7.1 of absolute truth. Your existence derives from this idea and this  truth. The ego’s existence derived from your idea of a separated
T3:7.2 A belief system is not needed for the  truth. Thus you can see that the beliefs put forth in “A Treatise on
T3:7.2 in “A Treatise on Unity” are necessary only to return you to the  truth. Since there are no beliefs that represent the truth of who you
T3:7.2 you to the truth. Since there are no beliefs that represent the  truth of who you are and who God is, we speak now of ideas or
T3:7.3 need for a belief system and no belief system that can represent the  truth, you have been told that you can represent the truth here. You
T3:7.3 represent the truth, you have been told that you can represent the  truth here. You cannot do this with beliefs but you can do this with
T3:7.4 is the idea that is beyond compare as you are beyond compare and the  truth is beyond compare. This is the only idea that holds true
T3:7.5 experience that made you incapable of representing who you are in  truth was the ego. The only thing within the human experience that
T3:7.5 with the ego gone, you are perfectly capable of representing the  truth of who you are and returning to an existence that is meaningful.
T3:7.9 of illusion. The Source can only be found from within the House of  Truth.
T3:7.10 The home of  truth is within you and we have just unlocked its doors.
T3:8.1 The Kingdom of God is the House of  Truth. Or better said, the House of Truth has been called the Kingdom
T3:8.1 Kingdom of God is the House of Truth. Or better said, the House of  Truth has been called the Kingdom of God. I remind you, once again,
T3:8.1 so that what you represent will move beyond representations to the  truth. Realize here the subtle difference between a symbol that
T3:8.1 here the subtle difference between a symbol that represents the  truth, and the truth, for this is what we work toward. Symbols are
T3:8.1 difference between a symbol that represents the truth, and the  truth, for this is what we work toward. Symbols are needed only in
T3:8.1 enlightened among you have beautifully symbolized or represented the  truth. These symbols or representations have been of great service
T3:8.1 of replacing the house of illusion once and for all with the home of  truth. The work that is upon you now is that of revelation of the
T3:8.2 If the Source of  Truth is within you, then it is your own revelation toward which we
T3:8.3 been the thoughts of your ego-mind. While anything other than the  truth remains real to you, your house of illusion will remain a real
T3:8.3 will remain a real structure, a structure that keeps you from the  truth as surely as would iron bars keep you within its rooms.
T3:8.9 of treasure, the representation of the true Self within the House of  Truth will cause the creation of the new.
T3:9.3 Ideas of love, or the  truth, are joined in unity and exist in relationship. All of the
T3:9.3 is given you will not doubt it but will remember that it is the  truth you had forgotten.
T3:9.4 house of illusion was just a structure built within the universe of  truth and that the universe of truth contains everything within its
T3:9.4 built within the universe of truth and that the universe of  truth contains everything within its benevolent embrace. No one
T3:9.6 The paradise that is the  truth seems to lie far beyond the house of illusion in the valley of
T3:9.7 in it. You are called to dwell in the Promised Land, the House of  Truth.
T3:10.1 forgetting. While nothing need be given up to enter the House of  Truth, or to encounter the truth, you must realize that while
T3:10.1 need be given up to enter the House of Truth, or to encounter the  truth, you must realize that while meaninglessness exists within your
T3:10.7 in the house of illusion and the present is lived in the House of  Truth? Being cognizant of this is the only way that the simultaneous
T3:10.7 it is up to you to become aware of the total change that has, in  truth, taken place.
T3:10.12 to show you a new way of living, the way of living in the House of  Truth. You will not need to learn a foreign language to dwell in this
T3:10.14 that you but think you have forgotten. As you dwell in the House of  Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego thought system, the
T3:11.1 be who they are. Further, they believe the personal self to be the  truth of the statement, “I am.”
T3:11.2 Those existing within the House of  Truth also feel an awareness of Self. Without necessarily being able
T3:11.2 personal self or the self alone. For those existing in the House of  Truth, “I am” has become something larger, an all-encompassing
T3:11.2 of the unity of all things with which the Self coexists in  truth and peace and love.
T3:11.3 These words,  truth and peace and love, are interchangeable in the House of Truth
T3:11.3 words, truth and peace and love, are interchangeable in the House of  Truth as their meaning there is the same. These words, like the words
T3:11.3 meaning there is the same. These words, like the words House of  Truth represent an awareness of a new reality, a new dwelling place.
T3:11.4 The word house as used in the House of  Truth does not represent a structure but a dwelling place. The word
T3:11.4 shield the personal self from all that it would fear. The House of  Truth is the dwelling place of those who no longer live in fear and
T3:11.6 earth I did not dwell in the house of illusion but in the House of  Truth. What this means is that I was aware of the truth and lived by
T3:11.6 in the House of Truth. What this means is that I was aware of the  truth and lived by the truth. I was aware of the Peace of God and
T3:11.6 What this means is that I was aware of the truth and lived by the  truth. I was aware of the Peace of God and lived within the Peace of
T3:11.7 of God lives within you. Live within the Peace of God. Live by the  truth.
T3:11.8 you are love, you live in peace, you live by or in accord with the  truth.
T3:11.9 I have called the Kingdom of God the House of  Truth rather than the House of Peace for a reason. What you are
T3:11.9 are learning is no longer that the Kingdom of God or the House of  Truth exists, but how to live within it. The question of how to live
T3:11.9 it is best addressed by concentrating on living according to the  truth.
T3:11.10 of not judging by denying any right or wrong, the difference between  truth and illusion can no longer be denied. To realize the difference
T3:11.10 illusion can no longer be denied. To realize the difference between  truth and illusion is not to call one right and the other wrong but
T3:11.10 exist. Believing in the reality of illusion will never make it the  truth.
T3:11.11 the temptation to accept the existence of a reality other than the  truth.
T3:11.12 If I can tell you in  truth that you are no different than I am, then you must see that you
T3:11.12 different than your brothers and sisters. All exist in the House of  Truth. The house of illusion exists within the House of Truth because
T3:11.12 the House of Truth. The house of illusion exists within the House of  Truth because it is where your brothers and sisters think they are.
T3:11.13 but must see them where they truly are—within the House of  Truth. As soon as you would “see” the house of illusion, you would
T3:11.14 here that you are not being asked to see anything that is not the  truth. This is why the word see is consciously used here and why we
T3:11.15 to be aware that very few realize that they exist in the House of  Truth. You will, in truth, for quite some time, be striving to remain
T3:11.15 very few realize that they exist in the House of Truth. You will, in  truth, for quite some time, be striving to remain aware even that you
T3:11.15 available within the house of illusion to promote the recognition of  truth. Do not be afraid of the house of illusion at all. What
T3:11.15 of illusion at all. What illusion can frighten those who know the  truth?
T3:11.16 This first lesson on the temptation of the human experience comes in  truth as a warning against righteousness. It comes to remind you, as
T3:11.16 the thought system of illusion with the thought system of the  truth, that having remembered the truth of who you are, you are
T3:11.16 with the thought system of the truth, that having remembered the  truth of who you are, you are called to forget the personal self who
T3:12.4 Matter or form is bound by time. Spirit is not. The House of  Truth cannot be bound by time and be a House of Truth. How then can
T3:12.4 is not. The House of Truth cannot be bound by time and be a House of  Truth. How then can the personal self begin to realize the human
T3:12.5 prior to this point, our goal was returning to your awareness the  truth of your identity. By changing our goal now, I am assuring you
T3:12.5 our goal now, I am assuring you that you have become aware of the  truth of your identity. The goal of this Course has been
T3:12.10 A physical self, able to express itself from within the House of  Truth in ways consistent with peace and love is the next step in
T3:13.4 is simply learning in accordance with the new thought system of the  truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion behind. The new
T3:13.4 accordance with the new thought system of the truth; accepting the  truth and leaving illusion behind. The new thought system is simple
T3:13.4 The new thought system is simple to learn. What is of love is  truth. What is of fear is illusion. The temptation is to see love
T3:13.4 as you will create the new according to what you believe to be the  truth and translate into ideas.
T3:13.9 that you do believe in them. You believe, but you cannot imagine the  truth of these words really being represented in the life you live
T3:13.9 the life you live here. This you must now do. You must represent the  truth of these words with your life.
T3:13.10 acts. To do so would be to act as if this were magic rather than the  truth. To act as if this is the truth is what you are called to do.
T3:13.10 if this were magic rather than the truth. To act as if this is the  truth is what you are called to do. You may even begin by something
T3:13.12 to fear these consequences, no matter what they may be. You must, in  truth, birth the idea of benevolence and abundance.
T3:13.14 way that the personal self will be able to represent the Self in  truth.
T3:14.1 system has made way for the birth of the thought system of the  truth. The thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this time
T3:14.1 system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought system of  truth. While the foundation of fear, like the ego, will have left you
T3:14.2 the thought system of the ego into the thought system of the  truth, you will begin to believe in such things as benevolence and
T3:14.2 to equanimity would soon prevail, for those dwelling in the House of  Truth would not long abide with such illusions, but the pattern of
T3:14.2 would merely look back after the interlude had passed and see the  truth, realizing that a lesson had been learned and becoming aware
T3:14.3 clear to you by now that, although you dwell in the house of the  truth, you are capable of bringing with you old patterns of behavior.
T3:14.4 You are quite capable of seeing the  truth and still acting as if you see it not. This has been done for
T3:14.5 with much of your life. As you begin to dwell in the House of  Truth and see with the eyes of love, you will see far less about the
T3:14.8 of continuous decision making but simply the choice to live by the  truth of the new thought system. If you but let go the old, and with
T3:14.9 your life were caused by fear and how little consequence they had in  truth. These fearful choices took nothing from you or from others.
T3:14.10 to love to be seen in a new light, are now revealed in the light of  truth.
T3:14.12 time-bound consciousness that hangs onto the past as if it were the  truth, allows not correction to take place. The past is no more and
T3:15.4 being other than who they are. This is consistent with the  truth. Yet who anyone is, is not contingent upon whom they have
T3:15.8 before, these will seem to be remedial lessons. What they are, in  truth, are aides to help you birth the new ideas that will break the
T3:15.10 the Self, the Self that abides in unity with all within the House of  Truth. This relationship makes the Self one with all and so brings
T3:15.11 of the thought system of the ego to the thought system of the  truth. As we have said before, it is impossible to learn the new with
T3:15.11 with the thought system of the old. It is impossible to learn the  truth through the same methods that have been used in the past to
T3:15.11 that love cannot be learned. I have said here that love, peace, and  truth are interchangeable ideas within the new thought system. Thus,
T3:15.11 truth are interchangeable ideas within the new thought system. Thus,  truth, like love, is not something that you can learn. The Good News
T3:15.11 you can learn. The Good News is that you have no need to learn the  truth. The truth exists within you and you are now aware of its
T3:15.11 The Good News is that you have no need to learn the truth. The  truth exists within you and you are now aware of its reality.
T3:15.12 within this new reality, this new beginning? Through living by the  truth.
T3:15.15 You are accomplished. Giving and receiving are one in  truth. There is no loss but only gain within the laws of love.
T3:15.17 yourself to be in the past, you will not be living by the  truth but by illusion.
T3:15.18 by which you have lived. The total replacement of illusion with the  truth is what the new thought system will accomplish. Obviously, this
T3:15.18 replacement are in your hands but you are hardly empty-handed. The  truth goes with you as does the love and peace of God.
T3:16.1 Willingness to live by the  truth is the only offering you are asked to make to God. You need
T3:16.1 other offerings. No sacrifices need be made and sacrifices are, in  truth, unacceptable to God. You are asked to give up nothing but
T3:16.2 of you is the same as saying that you do not need to, and in  truth, cannot, give anything else or anything less. You do not need
T3:16.2 world will look like. You simply need to be willing to live by the  truth.
T3:16.8 already what you have sought to be. Thus, in order to live by the  truth, you must live in the world as The Accomplished and cease
T3:16.8 Accomplished and cease struggling to be other than who you are in  truth. This struggling to be other than who you are in truth is a
T3:16.8 you are in truth. This struggling to be other than who you are in  truth is a temptation of the human experience. It will come in many
T3:16.8 this aspect of the ego thought system to the thought system of the  truth.
T3:16.9 Giving and receiving are one in  truth.
T3:16.10 By saying that giving and receiving are one in  truth it is being said that you are lacking only in what you do not
T3:16.12 you would not find it difficult to live by the thought system of the  truth. This fear relates very strongly to your ideas of change and as
T3:16.14 it is being said that your only relationship is with the  truth and that you no longer have a relationship with illusion. All
T3:16.15 If you but live by the idea that representing who you are in  truth will create a new heaven on earth, you can lay aside any fears
T3:16.15 available to share in relationship are all that you would share in  truth. You will recognize that no others have a need for you to make
T3:16.15 others have a need for you to make them special for you will see the  truth of who they are rather than the illusion of who you would have
T3:16.16 to only seem to be intertwined and all encompassing. Nothing but the  truth is all encompassing. Illusion is made of parts that do not form
T3:16.17 Accept one “part” or tenet of the  truth and see the reverse take place. See how quickly the thought
T3:16.17 the reverse take place. See how quickly the thought system of the  truth builds upon itself and forms a real and true interrelated
T3:16.17 forms a real and true interrelated whole. What forms the House of  Truth is love eternal and it has always encompassed you, even unto
T3:17.1 Why would you ever have chosen to obscure the  truth? As we have already shown, to have chosen to express the Self
T3:17.5 the unobservable began a process of unlearning or forgetting of the  truth that has led, through the learning of untruth in the mechanism
T3:17.7 with a Holy Spirit in my mind and heart and as such represented the  truth. Many others by many other names have represented the truth and
T3:17.7 the truth. Many others by many other names have represented the  truth and in so doing dispelled illusion within themselves and those
T3:17.8 means of communication with the ego-self the ability to learn the  truth could not have returned to you. The “time” of the Holy Spirit
T3:17.8 and willingness to live as your true Self, to live in the House of  Truth rather than the house of illusion, is what will end the time of
T3:17.8 of illusion, is what will end the time of illusion. Just as the  truth is the truth and illusion is illusion; just as these things are
T3:17.8 is what will end the time of illusion. Just as the truth is the  truth and illusion is illusion; just as these things are what they
T3:17.8 time in which communication was needed between the illusion and the  truth, must end in order for the truth to become the one reality.
T3:17.8 needed between the illusion and the truth, must end in order for the  truth to become the one reality.
T3:18.2 Minds that have been unwilling to accept or learn an unobservable  truth, will now accept and learn from observable truth. This is why
T3:18.2 an unobservable truth, will now accept and learn from observable  truth. This is why you must become that observable truth.
T3:18.2 from observable truth. This is why you must become that observable  truth.
T3:18.4 to their minds and hearts. It is, in fact, your observance of the  truth of your brothers and sisters that is the miracle we have stated
T3:18.5 I repeat, your observance of the  truth of your brothers and sisters is the miracle.
T3:18.7 A mind and heart joined in unity observes the  truth where once a mind and heart separated by illusion observed
T3:18.8 of worship and of devotion and that you are called to observe the  truth rather than illusion no matter how real illusion may still seem
T3:18.9 mechanisms of your physical form to the new thought system of the  truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a neutral form that will
T3:18.9 realize that it will now be instructed by the thought system of the  truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe only the truth, even unto
T3:18.9 system of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe only the  truth, even unto seeing what before but seemed unobservable.
T3:18.10 is the thinking of the ego-thought system. The thought system of the  truth realizes that the external world is but a reflection of the
T3:18.10 exists within you is shared by all. This is the relationship of the  truth that unites all things and that must now become observable.
T3:19.1 physical form as it begins to be guided by the thought system of the  truth rather than the thought system of illusion. You will fear these
T3:19.9 any time to waste on such illusions. The thought system of the  truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The
T3:19.9 system of the truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in  truth. The thought system of the truth is a thought system that is
T3:19.9 in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The thought system of the  truth is a thought system that is not split by varying goals and
T3:19.11 they are, their expressions are meaningless and have no effect in  truth but only in illusion. To live in truth is to live without fear
T3:19.11 and have no effect in truth but only in illusion. To live in  truth is to live without fear of the meaningless acts of those living
T3:19.11 illusion because they will be unable to cause effect in the House of  Truth.
T3:19.15 to gather those within and bid them join you in the reality of the  truth. But in this time of Christ, a new time, a time without

T3:19.16 the one clear and only choice evident. It is a choice to live in  truth or in illusion. There are many ways that can still be found to
T3:19.16 illusion. There are many ways that can still be found to come to the  truth. But a way of getting to the truth will become so attractive
T3:19.16 can still be found to come to the truth. But a way of getting to the  truth will become so attractive that few will be able to resist. What
T3:20.1 has at its base a false cause and so no effects that exist in  truth. Now, your every thought and action will have effect, and the
T3:20.2 illusion, and although more or less are concepts also foreign to the  truth, there is sense to be made from these concepts in regards to
T3:20.2 to be made from these concepts in regards to the learning of the  truth. As this is all that time is for, and all that time is but a
T3:20.2 pace. There is no more or less to learning in terms of knowing the  truth that you have always known, but there are degrees of
T3:20.3 in effectiveness is your own learning. Now, rather than learning the  truth, you are learning how to live by the truth. This will benefit
T3:20.3 rather than learning the truth, you are learning how to live by the  truth. This will benefit you and in so doing benefit all others.
T3:20.7 that is more realistic and even helpful than living by the laws of  truth.
T3:20.10 visualization or positive thinking. I am calling you to live by the  truth and to never deny it. To see no circumstance as cause to
T3:20.10 I am providing you with means to help you know how to live by the  truth, but the means are not the end and are never to be confused as
T3:20.11 Miracles are not the end, but merely the means, of living by the  truth. Miracles are not meant to be called upon to create specific
T3:20.11 in specific circumstances. They are meant to be lived by as the  truth is meant to be lived by. Not because you desire an outcome, but
T3:20.11 you can no longer be, live, or think as other than who you are in  truth. This is how thorough your learning must be. It is a learning
T3:20.11 of illusion but be unchanging to fit the circumstances of the  truth.
T3:20.12 house and are called not to return. To turn your back not on the  truth nor on God or love.
T3:20.13 by those who have birthed the idea that cause and effect are one in  truth.
T3:20.17 you see. Turn from the dark ways of illusion and shine the light of  truth for all to see. Remain who you are and continue to live by the
T3:20.19 as every other circumstance you will encounter. You will encounter  truth or illusion and nothing else for there is nothing else. There
T3:20.19 the call to love from love, the call that welcomes all to live in  truth.
T3:21.1 The  truth is not a set of facts. Written truth is not the truth but only
T3:21.1 The truth is not a set of facts. Written  truth is not the truth but only the arrangement of the truth into
T3:21.1 The truth is not a set of facts. Written truth is not the  truth but only the arrangement of the truth into language. You have a
T3:21.1 Written truth is not the truth but only the arrangement of the  truth into language. You have a birth certificate that states the
T3:21.1 truth into language. You have a birth certificate that states the  truth about your birth. The birth certificate is not the truth but
T3:21.1 states the truth about your birth. The birth certificate is not the  truth but symbolic of the truth.
T3:21.1 birth. The birth certificate is not the truth but symbolic of the  truth.
T3:21.2 The  truth is not symbolic. It is. It is the same for everyone.
T3:21.3 There are no two sides to the  truth. There is not more than one truth. There is one truth.
T3:21.3 There are no two sides to the truth. There is not more than one  truth. There is one truth.
T3:21.3 sides to the truth. There is not more than one truth. There is one  truth.
T3:21.4 The  truth is not a concept. It is real. It is all that is real.
T3:21.5 Your real Self exists in  truth. It does not exist in illusion.
T3:21.7 for the personal self and the true Self to exist together is for the  truth to be lived in time. In order for the truth to be lived in time
T3:21.7 together is for the truth to be lived in time. In order for the  truth to be lived in time you must forget your uncertainty and be
T3:21.7 lived in time you must forget your uncertainty and be certain of the  truth.
T3:21.8 certainty is antithetical to you. You think that to believe in one  truth is to deny other truths. There is only one truth. Untruth must
T3:21.8 to believe in one truth is to deny other truths. There is only one  truth. Untruth must now be denied.
T3:21.9 must live with it. You must live with it as you once lived with the  truth. You must find it unobservable! It must become a concept only.
T3:21.18 others. It will be a representation only. It will represent only the  truth. It will no longer be seen as your identity, but as
T3:21.20 useful as that certainty is translated to the thought system of the  truth and aids you in becoming certain of your true identity. The
T3:21.20 be seen as sameness by some and will attract them to you and to the  truth you now will represent.
T3:21.21 It but calls all to love and to live in the abundance of the  truth.
T3:21.22 not that there will be no priest or guru for those who seek the  truth to turn to. It will matter not that a black man will not turn
T3:21.22 It will matter that someone will look at you and be drawn to the  truth of him- or herself that is seen reflected there. What I am
T3:21.23 if a person turns to someone “like” him- or herself to find the  truth, or if a person turns to someone totally “unlike” him- or
T3:21.23 person turns to someone totally “unlike” him- or herself to find the  truth. As has been said many times, willingness is the starting point
T3:21.24 one is called to evangelize, all are called equally to represent the  truth and to observance of the truth. That you each will do this in
T3:21.24 are called equally to represent the truth and to observance of the  truth. That you each will do this in ways unique to who you are must
T3:21.24 to the relationship between the personal self and the Self; the  truth and its representation and observance.
T3:22.1 you may be beginning to form ideas of what it means to live by the  truth, these ideas may not seem to have much relevance or
T3:22.1 something is. You think that to be asked to simply “live” by the  truth could not possibly be enough. You would like to know in what
T3:22.1 be enough. You would like to know in what direction living by the  truth will take you, for surely your life must change. The very
T3:22.2 as the one, or only one of the teachings that has led you to the  truth.
T3:22.3 You are a beautiful representation of the  truth and cannot be otherwise. You may bring this beauty to any
T3:22.3 have always dreamt of doing. Wherever you go, whatever you do, the  truth will go with you. You need no uniform nor title nor specific
T3:22.4 Since your personal self was always meant to represent the  truth of who you are, the seeds of who you are, are planted there,
T3:22.11 new Self, for you cannot observe your new Self without observing the  truth that has always existed. The truth that has always existed is
T3:22.11 new Self without observing the truth that has always existed. The  truth that has always existed is our oneness, and what you will
T3:22.11 that differences but lie in expression and representation of the  truth, never in the truth itself.
T3:22.11 but lie in expression and representation of the truth, never in the  truth itself.
T3:22.13 now is separate from what will be. In the new world, the world where  truth reigns, there is no cause for tension for there is no world of
T3:22.17 in so doing transform the personal self into a representation of the  truth. Realize that what we have called “closed eyes” observation is
T3:22.18 Embrace the new as the new embraces you. The new is but the  truth that has always existed. Go forth and live the truth with
T3:22.18 new is but the truth that has always existed. Go forth and live the  truth with impatience only for the truth. Hold this impatience to
T3:22.18 existed. Go forth and live the truth with impatience only for the  truth. Hold this impatience to your Self as eagerness for the final

T4:1.10 learning, no matter what the means, will eventually lead them to the  truth of who they are.
T4:1.11 God indirectly. These are the only two choices, the choices between  truth and illusion, fear and love, unity and separation, now and
T4:1.12 house of illusion is held within the embrace of love, of God, of the  truth. Does this sound exclusive to you? The embrace is inclusive.
T4:1.16 cause for blame exists. No cause to look back exists at all, for the  truth exists in the present. This is the same as saying the truth
T4:1.16 for the truth exists in the present. This is the same as saying the  truth exists within you. It is in this way that time is not real and
T4:1.16 real and will no longer be real to you as you come to live by the  truth. It is in this way that the truth of the past still lives and
T4:1.16 to you as you come to live by the truth. It is in this way that the  truth of the past still lives and that the illusion of the past never
T4:1.17 observation and direction communication or experience. The same  truth has always existed, but the choice of a means of coming to know
T4:1.17 has always existed, but the choice of a means of coming to know the  truth has shifted. All were chosen and all are chosen.
T4:1.18 you have chosen God and chosen a new means of coming to know the  truth—the means of Christ-consciousness, is what has ushered in the
T4:1.19 Many came to know the  truth by indirect means and shared what they came to know through
T4:1.19 effect are the same. It is these indirect means of communicating the  truth that have led to your advances in science and technology, and
T4:1.20 to interpretation. Different interpretations of indirectly received  truth resulted in different religions and varying sets of beliefs
T4:1.20 even unto this time. You have learned much of the nature of the  truth by seeing what you have perceived as the contrast between good
T4:1.21 It is the  truth that you have now learned all that can be learned from this
T4:1.25 in which they have lived. Others do not wish to experience the  truth directly, but only to experience experience. They are in the
T4:1.25 everything before they allow themselves to directly experience the  truth, thinking still that the experience of the truth will exclude
T4:1.25 experience the truth, thinking still that the experience of the  truth will exclude much that they would want to try before they give
T4:1.26 born into the time of Christ will settle for nothing less than the  truth and will soon begin looking earnestly for it. Even the ego-self
T4:1.28 This is the  truth of the state of the world in which you exist today.
T4:2.1 be can peacefully coexist with the unity that is here and now in  truth.
T4:2.4 of The Way. This is why I have been called “The Way, The  Truth and The Light.” I came to show The Way to Christ-consciousness,
T4:2.7 are no more accomplished than anyone has been or is or will be. The  truth of who you are is as accomplished as the truth of all of your
T4:2.7 or is or will be. The truth of who you are is as accomplished as the  truth of all of your brothers and sisters from the beginning of time
T4:2.7 kind or time are more or better than any other is not speaking the  truth. This is why we began with the chosen and will return again and
T4:2.15 observant, see that the Self you are now was indeed present, and the  truth of who you were always.
T4:2.16 then, could you possibly observe any others without knowing that the  truth of who they are is present even though it might seem not to be?
T4:2.16 This is the power you now have within you, the power to observe the  truth rather than illusion. This is the power to observe what is.
T4:2.27 Let this idea gestate a moment within you and reveal to you the  truth of which it speaks. The separated state of the mind created its
T4:2.27 through the joining of mind and heart, will now reveal to you the  truth of what was created and allow you to create anew.
T4:4.16 discussion is likely to cause many of you serious doubts about the  truth and applicability of this Course, this discussion is necessary
T4:6.2 the guarantee that you are who I say you are, and that I speak the  truth concerning your identity and inheritance. What you choose to do
T4:6.7 creation. In each moment, what is, while still existing in the one  truth of God’s law of love, can find many expressions. You can exist
T4:7.1 false desire. This simply means false, or not consistent with the  truth. It does not mean wrong or bad and is itself no cause for
T4:7.3 Those who attempt to figure them out will come ever closer to the  truth by means of science, technology, and even art and literature.
T4:7.5 your heart and body has been the inability of the mind to join the  truth with your conscious awareness. While your mind did not accept
T4:7.5 with your conscious awareness. While your mind did not accept the  truth of your identity or the reality of love without fear, it
T4:7.5 and worked with your mind to bring about this acceptance of the  truth, a truth your heart has always known but has been unable to
T4:7.5 worked with your mind to bring about this acceptance of the truth, a  truth your heart has always known but has been unable to free you to
T4:7.6 ego’s thought system, has but to relearn the thought system of the  truth. Your mind, heart, and body have joined in alignment to bring
T4:8.2 wherein you can know, within your inner being, that this is the  truth. I say this because it is only now that you can come to know
T4:8.2 I say this because it is only now that you can come to know this  truth without reverting to old ideas of not having had “yourself” any
T4:8.14 with God, is not a static state. While consciousness of the  truth is never-changing, consciousness of the truth is also
T4:8.14 consciousness of the truth is never-changing, consciousness of the  truth is also ever-expanding.
T4:8.16 that even in regards to the learning of one subject it is not the  truth. The only instance in which this is the truth is in regards to
T4:8.16 subject it is not the truth. The only instance in which this is the  truth is in regards to learning who you are.
T4:9.3 teachings are leading. All of these learned works that speak the  truth—from ancient times through current times—are learned works
T4:9.5 it is not new. You have begun to see that all messages of the  truth say the same thing but in different ways. There seems to be
T4:9.5 beyond this point that you have reached in your understanding of the  truth. All the learning that you have done seems to leave you ready
T4:10.11 with knowing who you are and the ability to express who you are in  truth.
T4:12.31 that replace learning. This will help you to adapt to the  truth of a sharing you will have received even before it is
D:1.5 accomplished. What will it now take for your mind to accept this  truth? For the mind’s acceptance of this truth is what is needed.
D:1.5 your mind to accept this truth? For the mind’s acceptance of this  truth is what is needed.
D:1.6 Your heart knows the reality of this  truth, knows that this new reality is real and different from the
D:1.14 Christ Self. I dwell in unity. My identity is certain. This is the  truth. I am not less than I once was, but more. Where once I was
D:1.15 your remembrance. To “know” and not accept what you “know” to be the  truth is a continuation of the pattern of insanity that must be
D:1.16 Insanity is acting as if the  truth is not the truth. Sanity is accepting the truth as your reality
D:1.16 Insanity is acting as if the truth is not the  truth. Sanity is accepting the truth as your reality and acting from
D:1.16 is acting as if the truth is not the truth. Sanity is accepting the  truth as your reality and acting from that truth. Once the truth has
D:1.16 Sanity is accepting the truth as your reality and acting from that  truth. Once the truth has been learned, the nature of untruth remains
D:1.16 the truth as your reality and acting from that truth. Once the  truth has been learned, the nature of untruth remains only as an
D:1.16 is to reject this insanity and to accept the perfect sanity of the  truth.
D:1.19 receiver, or transcriber, of this Dialogue, this Dialogue may, in  truth, feel like a dialogue, an exchange, a conversation, and wonder
D:1.20 hear it? Does it matter who is first to hear the music? This is, in  truth, a dialogue between me and you. Wish not that the “way” of the
D:1.21 the difficulty with every curriculum that has sought to teach the  truth. In order for the truth to be truly learned, you first had to
D:1.21 curriculum that has sought to teach the truth. In order for the  truth to be truly learned, you first had to enter a state in which
D:1.22 has been returned to you as you begin to live in the reality of the  truth.
D:2.2 and the action of denial—it can thus be seen that they are, in  truth, one and the same action, just as means and end, cause and
D:2.2 cause and effect are one. You are asked to accept or receive the  truth of who you are and the revelations that will show you how to
D:2.4 will but interfere with your full acceptance of who you are in  truth.
D:2.7 This is not a judgment but simply the  truth. To learn the truth and not accept it is different from
D:2.7 This is not a judgment but simply the truth. To learn the  truth and not accept it is different from learning what is necessary
D:2.7 different from learning what is necessary for a career. To learn the  truth and not accept the truth is insane. To learn the truth and not
D:2.7 is necessary for a career. To learn the truth and not accept the  truth is insane. To learn the truth and not accept the completion of
D:2.7 To learn the truth and not accept the truth is insane. To learn the  truth and not accept the completion of your learning is insane.
D:2.19 even though the systems and patterns are known not to work. In  truth, no new learning or new systems based on the learning patterns
D:3.4 new to come into being, the old must be vanquished in order for the  truth to triumph over illusion.
D:3.11 That giving and receiving are one in  truth is best understood by taking away the idea of one who gives and
D:3.12 unity, which is the same as saying giving and receiving are one in  truth. A shared consciousness is the truth of who you are. The
D:3.12 giving and receiving are one in truth. A shared consciousness is the  truth of who you are. The elevation of the personal self, however,
D:3.15 your brothers and sisters in Christ. You are a representation of the  truth. You are a representation of all that is given and received in
D:3.15 truth. You are a representation of all that is given and received in  truth. You are a representation of creation. A representation of
D:3.16 Self is a full participant in this dialogue. You as the Self are the  truth. You as the Self are the creator and the created. You as the
D:3.21 a quality of Christ-consciousness. Thus you are already aware of the  truth of giving and receiving being one. This awareness exists within
D:4.14 thought are thus the foundation upon which how you live arises. The  truth is a system of thought. It exists in wholeness and has always
D:4.15 arose from the separated self are those you have accepted as the  truth. Some of these systems of thought were part of the divine
D:4.26 that they may as well be prison walls. You may even be a prisoner in  truth, and wonder how, save a grand escape, you can proceed. But I
D:5.3 of the ego self led to the world you see, it did not change the  truth but only created illusion. Thus the truth is still available to
D:5.3 see, it did not change the truth but only created illusion. Thus the  truth is still available to be seen.
D:5.4 representation of the world within, and as you become aware of the  truth represented in all that encompasses and surrounds you, the
D:5.5 still represents what is and thus contains all meaning or the  truth.
D:5.7 truly saw and understood the body and its acts as representative of  truth. You have thought the things you do represent your drives, but
D:5.8 for in the becoming it would need to take on the properties of the  truth. Think of the ego again as an example here. The ego but seemed
D:5.8 to be who you were for a time. Now that you know who you are in  truth, the ego does not remain, a separate entity with a life of its
D:5.8 own. No. The ego is gone. Because it was a lie its exposure to the  truth dissolved it.
D:5.9 you look the lie of false representation will be exposed and the  truth will be represented once again. As was said earlier, this
D:5.9 be represented once again. As was said earlier, this seeing of the  truth is the first step as it is the step necessary for the
D:5.10 might previously have thought of as inconsequential in the light of  truth. Everything given represents the truth.
D:5.10 in the light of truth. Everything given represents the  truth.
D:5.11 to reinterpret but to accept revelation. You will not arrive at the  truth through thinking about what everything means. This is the old
D:5.11 what is rather than to be what is. Now, as you join with the  truth, your representation, in the new time that is before us, will
D:5.11 but will return to being as it was intended and will represent the  truth of who you are. This true representation, being of the truth,
D:5.11 the truth of who you are. This true representation, being of the  truth, returns you to the reality of the truth where you exist in
D:5.11 being of the truth, returns you to the reality of the  truth where you exist in oneness.
D:5.14 was created to show the way back to Self and God to be what it is in  truth. This is the return of love to love. This is acceptance of your
D:5.19 This is what we discuss today. We discuss being what you represent in  truth. We discuss the elevation of form. And what we have discussed
D:6.2 out the insanity of your perception and the perfect sanity of the  truth. For some of you the repetition of the properties of the false
D:6.6 they are or what you have determined their use to be. There is thus  truth, or what we might call the seeds of the truly real, or the
D:6.13 has been a grand facilitator of the human spirit’s quest for the  truth and is part of what brought you, finally, to the quest to know
D:6.22 bone, and it is also the form that is now serving to represent the  truth of who you are. How might this change the “laws” of the body,
D:7.27 you is the circle of shared consciousness, the circle of unity. In  truth, this circle is everything, the All of All, the universe, God.
D:9.3 and in that thinking to come up with a definition of who you are, a  truth of who you are, a certainty about who you are. You have been
D:9.6 with that change, new patterns apply. This does not mean that the  truth has changed, but that you have changed; and with your change,
D:9.6 has changed, but that you have changed; and with your change, the  truth, while it remains the truth, can now be presented in a way that
D:9.6 have changed; and with your change, the truth, while it remains the  truth, can now be presented in a way that speaks to who you are now
D:11.12 will ever be good enough for those who set limits upon the  truth. But for those willing to open their minds and hearts to a new
D:11.16 is in everyone’s hearts, to what is shared in unity, to what is the  truth of who we all are rather than the truth of who the individual
D:11.16 in unity, to what is the truth of who we all are rather than the  truth of who the individual is.
D:11.17 There is no  truth inherent in the individual, separated self, but only illusion.
D:11.17 but illusion can provide no place in which the seeking ends and the  truth is found.
D:11.18 Unity is the Source of these words. So is it said. So is it the  truth.
D:12.15 share these thoughts, or to deliver them with the authority of the  truth simply because you have known that they are true, and because
D:12.15 known that they are true, and because you realized, as soon as the  truth came into your mind, how seldom in the past you have been sure
D:12.15 idea you were offering up for discussion, but something you knew the  truth about!
D:12.16 as well, have experienced the fading of your certainty about this  truth over time. It may have been your inability to convey this
D:12.16 this truth over time. It may have been your inability to convey this  truth, another’s reaction to this truth, or simple doubt that arose
D:12.16 been your inability to convey this truth, another’s reaction to this  truth, or simple doubt that arose within your thinking, but
D:12.16 carry within you the moment of realization—the moment in which the  truth was known to you without doubt, known to you without
D:12.16 certainty, you will never be so sure again that you cannot know the  truth. Adding the phrase “beyond a shadow of a doubt” will be
D:12.16 will be something you no longer need add to your knowing of the  truth because you will realize its redundancy.
D:12.17 certainty, when the reverse is what is true. It is sane to know the  truth. It is insane not to know the truth.
D:12.17 is true. It is sane to know the truth. It is insane not to know the  truth.
D:12.18 your personal or individual self with the “figuring out” of this  truth. Others of you will have recognized the “voice” of authority
D:12.18 of you will have recognized the “voice” of authority with which this  truth came to you as something other than your usual thoughts, other
D:12.18 that your self was involved, somehow, in this coming to know of the  truth, even if this coming to know of the truth wasn’t quite “of” the
D:12.18 this coming to know of the truth, even if this coming to know of the  truth wasn’t quite “of” the “you” of the personal self.
D:13.1 There is no danger, in this time, that you will know the  truth and then discover that you were wrong. You know the difference
D:13.9 will bear the mark of your perspective, and that is why partial  truth is never the whole truth, and why the whole truth is the only
D:13.9 your perspective, and that is why partial truth is never the whole  truth, and why the whole truth is the only truth.
D:13.9 is why partial truth is never the whole truth, and why the whole  truth is the only truth.
D:13.9 truth is never the whole truth, and why the whole truth is the only  truth.
D:13.11 and while you may feel unable to share or express the authority and  truth you know it represents, you will, by living according to what
D:13.11 represents, you will, by living according to what you know to be the  truth, form the very relationships and union that will allow the
D:13.11 the truth, form the very relationships and union that will allow the  truth to be shared. The relationship or union, in other words,
D:15.15 you to be in relationship with you, never realizing that this is, in  truth, what animates you, that this is that without which you cease
D:16.11 And yet giving and receiving are one in  truth. All of the principles of creation are in accord with this
D:16.11 in truth. All of the principles of creation are in accord with this  truth, and thus these truths occur in unison or in union. Becoming is
D:17.1 It is a following after that occurs in time and space rather than in  truth. It is never about one. It is not about replacement. It comes
D:Day1.1 no real cause to request. Why must Jesus be accepted? Why cannot the  truth be accepted? Why cannot everyone hold their distinct beliefs as
D:Day1.1 hold their distinct beliefs as long as they are beliefs in the  truth?
D:Day1.2 is not belief, it is not prayer. I care not in what form of the  truth you believe, nor to what god you believe you send your prayers;
D:Day1.2 prayers; although if you do not believe in your Self above a form of  truth, and if you continue to send your prayers to a god who is other
D:Day1.8 am. This is akin to saying Love is. I am what is. I am the way, the  truth, and the life.
D:Day1.10 space without a space craft. I have been trained, I understand the  truth about outer space, I believe in my abilities; but I do not
D:Day2.9 These are mainly, in  truth, judgments, judgments that arise from your conscience, from
D:Day3.11 fresh and inspired ideas. You do not, however, see that these are in  truth linked as givens, for you do not see that all are gifted.
D:Day3.25 learned is not true. What you learned is insane. But to realize the  truth you must now fully reject the untruths that you learned. You
D:Day3.46 evidence you could cite as a response to your requests, see not the  truth of the situation.
D:Day3.47 You still believe the  truth of the situation to be the reality of physical form and of what
D:Day3.58 which you are in relationship with what is beyond learning. It is in  truth, a state in which you enter into an alternative reality, the
D:Day4.2 of saying all that you have learned; on the other side will be the  truth, the new temptations that will incite you to leave behind the

D:Day4.21 is another cause of your anger—one of the primary causes, in  truth. Not only has all that you have learned led to an inaccurate
D:Day4.25 of the self as separate and alone, you could not learn the  truth no matter how much attention you paid, no matter how mightily
D:Day4.25 matter how mightily you tried. For on your own you cannot learn the  truth. On your own, only illusion can be learned, for your starting
D:Day4.26 and the place to which you desire access. As all that exists in  truth, union is means and end.
D:Day4.27 To know the basic  truth of who you are—that you are a being who exists in unity
D:Day4.27 the access that you seek. Without knowing this, without knowing the  truth of your existence, how could you be done with learning? This
D:Day4.27 is not the way to the access that you seek. As all that exists in  truth, the truth of who you are is means and end as well.
D:Day4.27 way to the access that you seek. As all that exists in truth, the  truth of who you are is means and end as well.
D:Day4.39 willing to say that you can go only so far in your acceptance of the  truth of who you really are, then our purpose of being together here
D:Day4.42 in this elevated place. You are still the self of form despite the  truth that you are literally with me in a place of high elevation. Is
D:Day4.51 you still known relationship, fear could not have separated you from  truth and you would not have dwelt in illusion. The relationship of
D:Day4.53 have disguised your fear, to move you beyond false learning to the  truth that only needs to be accepted. If you can move forward without
D:Day4.54 your first glimpse of wholeness, of oneness with God. To know the  truth of your inheritance.
D:Day5.2 For each of you this access point will in  truth be the same, but perhaps quite different in the action which
D:Day5.13 you have felt you “have” love to give. You thus have long known the  truth of giving and receiving as one within your own heart. You might
D:Day5.16 might say healing is one of the ways the healer expresses love. In  truth healing and love are the same.
D:Day6.13 in returning to one of the main themes of this chapter—the simple  truth that you are having to go about this creative process while
D:Day6.21 created to exist both within the body and beyond the body. It is, in  truth, the portal of access we have spoken of, a connection with the
D:Day8.4 your desire for your unhappiness to be gone, is very unlikely, in  truth, to stem from the details of your life. Even so, you are not
D:Day8.5 need a job that you do not like, but in acceptance of the simple  truth that you do not like your job, you have accepted your Self and
D:Day8.13 and that this intolerance will take the form of seeing only the  truth rather than attempting to combat illusion. Thus when you see
D:Day8.13 Thus when you see others gossiping, you are called to see only the  truth of who they are—to see beyond the illusion, what would seem
D:Day8.18 of others. You will think that you know the real from the unreal,  truth from illusion, and so will disregard the feelings of others as
D:Day8.19 Does this seem confusing? To be called to see only the  truth, to see beyond illusion, and then to be told to accept the
D:Day8.19 of others? It should not. While true compassion sees only the  truth, this does not mean it holds the feelings of anyone—not those
D:Day8.19 does not mean it holds the feelings of anyone—not those living in  truth, or those living in illusion—in disregard. This disregard is
D:Day8.21 that by being in the present you know your feelings are of the  truth. This is certainty. This is all that will prevent you from
D:Day9.7 Realize now the  truth of what you have just heard. While you know you have not
D:Day9.7 believe you have allowed yourself freedom of feeling. And yet if the  truth be admitted, you know that even this is not quite true. You
D:Day9.25 a given form that is perfect for your expression of the beauty and  truth of who you are. You cannot express the beauty and truth of who
D:Day9.25 beauty and truth of who you are. You cannot express the beauty and  truth of who another is. You cannot express the beauty and truth of a
D:Day9.25 and truth of who another is. You cannot express the beauty and  truth of a future self. You can only express the beauty and truth of
D:Day9.25 and truth of a future self. You can only express the beauty and  truth of who you are now, in the present. And you do. You just have
D:Day9.27 the ego, has been able to keep you from expressing the beauty and  truth of who you are. You came into the world of form incapable of
D:Day9.27 into the world of form incapable of not expressing the beauty and  truth of who you are. That you are is an expression of beauty and
D:Day9.27 truth of who you are. That you are is an expression of beauty and  truth. You express the beauty and truth of who you are by being
D:Day9.27 are is an expression of beauty and truth. You express the beauty and  truth of who you are by being alive. It has only been your inability
D:Day9.27 In a certain sense, your ability to express the beauty and  truth of who you are has been taught out of you by learning practices

D:Day10.24 your brothers and sisters in Christ as it does from me. It comes, in  truth, from our union, from the consciousness we share. This shared
D:Day10.33 returning you, and all your brothers and sisters, to who they are in  truth. This cannot be done from without but must be done from within.
D:Day11.2 even while it does not unite the world of illusion with the world of  truth. Sharing in unity and relationship is the way and the means to
D:Day11.2 is the way and the means to see past the world of illusion to the  truth of the union of form and spirit, separate selves and the One
D:Day11.6 is as unknowable as the All of Everything. To be separate in  truth would be to not exist. To be the All of Everything would be to
D:Day11.6 that it exists. Thus relationship is everything. Relationship is the  truth. Relationship is consciousness.
D:Day17.10 Mary represented incarnation through relationship, demonstrating the  truth of union, the birth of form, and the ascension of the body.
D:Day18.2 working together will be essential for the birth of the new and in  truth symbolizes it in form and process. As within, so without. Mary
D:Day18.5 To be an example life is to be what you represent in  truth. Followers of all faiths are called to example lives and to
D:Day18.5 faiths are called to example lives and to representation of the same  truth. All faith is faith in the unknown through knowing, as a
D:Day18.7 The  truth represented by Jesus and Mary was represented as a visual
D:Day18.7 now called to do. Whether you demonstrate the myth of duality or the  truth of union, you are demonstrating the same thing. The way in
D:Day18.8 Feelings are your awareness of the present and thus of the  truth. They are your means of coming to know. They arise from
D:Day18.9 had not been true, the cause of life would not have been a cause of  truth. Just as neither brain nor heart alone provide for a
D:Day19.4 content—your wholeness. Those who use their gifts to create the  truth they see are those who in “doing” find their way to true
D:Day19.8 Together, the way of Mary and the way of Jesus demonstrate the  truth of as within, so without and the relationship between the inner
D:Day19.13 within consciousness by holding open this door to creation. They, in  truth, create a new pattern and begin to weave it into the web of
D:Day19.14 The  truth of this way is not discovered through the passing on of
D:Day19.14 relationship. Those following the way of Mary become mirrors of the  truth they discover, reflecting the way to their brothers and
D:Day20.1 relied upon so that you begin to rely more and more fully on the  truth of this dialogue.
D:Day20.5 The  truth is the truth. It doesn’t change. It is the same for everyone.
D:Day20.5 The truth is the  truth. It doesn’t change. It is the same for everyone.
D:Day20.6 What, then, is the unknown? The reception and expression of  truth.
D:Day20.9 In other words, all the  truth and all the wisdom that is available but unknown to you, takes
D:Day20.9 you to make it known. And if this is the only way that the beauty,  truth, and wisdom of the One Self can be made known, then you are the
D:Day28.16 conditions. It makes no sense, however, to accept what is not the  truth. Most of what is not the truth has been identified as old
D:Day28.16 however, to accept what is not the truth. Most of what is not the  truth has been identified as old thought patterns. This is all that
D:Day28.24 and will be like no other. The thread represents your own journey to  truth, your own journey to wholeness.
D:Day31.2 You “know” the experience because you have “had” the experience. The  truth that you are the experience escapes you.
D:Day32.15 to you of the nature of life and God, it has revealed to you the  truth of relationship. As has been said before, if separation had
D:Day33.3 One cannot exist without the other and thus both are one in  truth. This is the divine marriage, the divine relationship of form
D:Day36.12 in your separate reality. A separate reality that cannot exist in  truth but only in illusion.
D:Day36.18 whom you have always been one with in being. You simply accept the  truth of being and the truth of being in union and relationship. Both
D:Day36.18 been one with in being. You simply accept the truth of being and the  truth of being in union and relationship. Both at the same time.
D:Day36.19 where you may be able to accept this new idea which is simply the  truth. It is the same truth that has been stated here in many
D:Day36.19 to accept this new idea which is simply the truth. It is the same  truth that has been stated here in many different ways to allow you
D:Day36.19 different ways to allow you to become accustomed to the idea of a  truth that may seem heretical to some of you when it is stated as
D:Day36.19 But our time together is coming to an end and your acceptance of the  truth of who you are and who you can be is essential to the
D:Day37.2 is being? This is not much different than saying that the most basic  truth about you is that you are being—and that the most basic truth
D:Day37.2 truth about you is that you are being—and that the most basic  truth about God is that God is being. Yet the fact that you are being
D:Day37.5 a very defined and separate way—a way that does not represent the  truth of who you are, or what relationship is—a way that represents
D:Day37.13 You have, quite simply, been being. The simple  truth that you are a being makes you one with God, who is being. This
D:Day37.13 that you are a being makes you one with God, who is being. This  truth, however, has escaped you. So you have been being the
D:Day37.16 you do not believe that you can “know,” truly know, what you do in  truth know. You know that you know, but you do not believe that you
D:Day40.15 you am I God. Only in your relationship to me are you who you are in  truth.

try (47)

C:P.14 Oh, Child of God, you have no need to  try at all, no need to be burdened or to grow tired and weary. You
C:P.14 your ego has made. By choosing to reject yourself you have chosen to  try to make sense of the nightmare rather than to awaken from it.
C:P.17 you, in union with God, can? What makes more sense? To choose to  try again what others have tried and failed to accomplish? Or to
C:1.8 ask yourself what else you had been told and disregarded. You might  try one more thing and then another that you previously would not
C:1.10 would teach you without me. You have tried in countless ways and can  try still again. But you will not succeed. Not because you are not

C:8.14 We have talked now of what is on the surface. Let us  try an experiment.
C:9.19 it not. To live in fear is, indeed, a curse, and one that you would  try to tell yourself is not present in your life. You look to others
C:9.23 all the problems that you face? You see what you do not want and  try to replace it with its opposite. Your life is thus spent in
C:9.38 parts together a whole can be achieved. You speak of balance, and  try to find something for one part of yourself in one place and
C:10.5 to prove to you that it is insurmountable. Many people at this point  try to think these maladies away, and when they do not succeed they
C:10.6 has taught you is to be separate. Be warned that it will constantly  try to interfere as long as you place any merit in what it tells you.
C:11.2 and yet you make of life a recreation of yourself and in so doing  try to prove that “you” are your own source.
C:11.4 you remain willing for the ideas to dwell within you, and you do not  try to shut them out. Realize that the ideas of both success and
C:14.7 to believe in such nonsense have simply refused to make reason  try to fit the unfitable without seeing that an alternative exists.
C:14.19 but since you know not that this can be done or how to do it, you  try to accomplish the “next best thing” and keep it close to you, a
C:14.19 of its proximity. More than this you cannot do, but still you  try. With chains you would bind this separate universe to your own,
C:14.20 that they are afraid of losing love, and even speak of it and  try to alleviate the fear with official commitments, pledges and
C:23.8 is what has caused you to make God over in your own image and to  try to do the same to others. This comes of seeing oneself as an
C:23.26 you have so long sought, you will indeed feel tested and will  try to take control of the learning situation. Not taking control,
C:25.24 action you have taken in the past, you will often meet resistance.  Try to be lighthearted at such times and to remember that if it
C:25.24 times and to remember that if it “doesn’t matter,” you might as well  try the new way. Remind yourself that you have nothing to lose. You
C:31.16 that secret, you will still be safe? Are you certain that if you  try something new, you will still be accepted? It is the ego that
T1:3.5 living have been discounted one by one. And yet you dare not  try to live without it. Why? Because of the thoughts of the ego-mind.

T1:3.11 thus far and send you back to a state of disbelief? Better not to  try at all than to risk trying and failing when such consequences
T1:3.25 In short, you are too afraid, for a variety of reasons, to  try. In short, you are not willing and have many reasons for not

T3:2.9 of the truth simply have no meaning and no matter how much one might  try to read meaning into the meaningless, it will not be found there.
T3:8.8 If you could relieve the world of suffering you would, but to  try and fail is too heartbreaking. Why should you not be bitter when
T4:1.25 experience of the truth will exclude much that they would want to  try before they give into its pull and settle there. But all have
T4:3.5 the very effort that has continued the cycle of fear. To have to  try to be who you are and to express who you are is the result of the
T4:12.19 that you feel is necessary before you can go on. But I ask you to  try to remember to turn to the new rather than the old each time you
D:1.7 Without this acceptance the personal self must still struggle and  try, prepare and plan. It does not know how to do otherwise. You do
D:2.11 “works for you” is really like a game of chance. You give it a  try, and if the outcome is as you desired it to be you call it a

D:15.13 To  try to capture the eternal would be like trying to catch the wind.
D:Day3.34 there is a secret you know not. There is, and it is a secret I will  try to share with you here, if you can let your disbelief and anger
D:Day3.34 will be a “one, two, three steps to abundance” answer; but I will  try to address you in an in-between tone, one that will not cause you
D:Day3.49 in accord with ideas of it being an “if this, then that” world. You  try to guess what God might want you to do, be it being still and not

D:2.12 This will not often prevent you from  trying the same thing again although at times it will. No matter what

T1:9.15 the first. The second will be most readily and quickly overcome by a  turn toward reason or the intellect. The perceived attack will have
T1:9.15 so much to value in what has called your ego into action and will  turn away from it.
T2:1.4 beyond the realm of the ego, in your fear of returning to it, often  turn away from internal treasures that you believe, when realized,

D:4.24 authority be your first “act” of acceptance rather than learning.  Turn to this as the new pattern and to the thought system of giving
D:4.28 union with all, draws from the well of divine design. You need not  turn to old patterns or systems to accomplish your release. You can
D:4.28 to old patterns or systems to accomplish your release. You can only  turn to what is, to what is left now that the patterns and systems of

C:P.29 collected upon it obscures it from their sight. This is the cost of  turning back when heaven could have been reached, the cost in
C:2.11 misery by making it real than could God. There is no magic here of  turning misery into delight and pain into joy. These acts would

C:15.11 cannot be loyal to both, and herein lies your problem. For at the  turning point you look back and see one other you cannot betray, and
C:25.16 the personal self gets out of the way in any instance, it is the  turning point. It is the signal that you are ready to live from love.
C:31.4 can be inseparable and still not be the same. The miracle of  turning water into wine illustrates, as all miracles do, the fallacy

T4:2.1 Outward seeking is turning inward. Inward or internal discoveries are  turning outward. This is a reverse, a polar reversal that is

D:Day4.46 that you will resurrect to eternal life here and now. It means no  turning back, no return to fear or anger, no return to separation, no
D:Day5.22 bid to claim ownership. Effort, as translated by the ego, was about  turning everything that was given into what “you” could only work
E.26 you once were, but you will not turn back. You will know that all  turning back would be but a retracing of the circular route you have

C:2.7 middle ground for your reality thinking there are more than these  two choices. A life of little joy and little pain is seen as a
C:3.6 man. He walked the world with a face much like your own, a body with  two legs and two arms, ten fingers and ten toes. And yet you know

C:9.32 the lesson of the birds of the air or the flowers of the field.  Two thousand years have passed since you were told to observe this
C:9.33 for your own use and allowed it to become the user. With your own  two hands you give away all your happiness and power to that which
C:9.48 for what they are. All that you desired will be revealed as only  two desires, the desire to love and the desire to be loved. Why wait
C:9.49 to support your separate stance. See you the difference in these  two positions? In what way is your way better than the way God

C:11.2 You think your source and your Creator are  two separate things, and too seldom remember even that you are not

C:18.8 seemingly trapped upon the screen, viewing everything from the  two eyes of the one projected there. Again, this is but what this
C:18.16 is a first step in what will seem now like an attempt to balance  two separate things, but is really an attempt to unite what you have
C:18.17 is that you dedicate all thought to union. This now must be seen in  two dimensions rather than one. In addition to dedicating thought to
C:19.17 is of a single form, a single entity. There is either one chair or  two. One table or four. Your emphasis has been on quantity, and one

C:21.5 way, a way contrary to the language of your heart, and so, like  two people from different countries speaking different languages,
C:21.5 see this in times of emergency or crisis of every kind. And like the  two people from different countries who do not understand each other,
C:21.5 a temporary solidarity is formed through like action. At such times  two strangers who are foreign to one another might recognize that the
C:21.5 the other’s “heart is in the right place.” The “right place” with  two people—as with mind and heart—is the place of no division.
C:21.7 these different interpretations as natural. You see that there are  two ways of viewing a situation, even if you do not label one way of
C:21.7 or resolution. You act without unity. And, just as if you were  two people acting on different truths in the same situation, conflict
C:22.4 is that of a needle passing through material. Of itself, it can hold  two pieces of material together. With the addition of thread passed
C:22.7 and of needle and thread to material, is easily seen. In these  two examples, the partnership creates something that did not
C:22.18 Obviously  two kinds of meaning are being talked about. The first we talked of

C:29.23 How can one’s service deprive anyone else of the right to serve? No  two are alike. Only in God are all the same.
C:31.37 that expects change and growth is that of parent to child. These  two relationships have comprised your ideas of our Father and me as
C:32.1 of who you are not. It is in telling the difference between the  two that you need guidance. You have previously looked to those who
T1:2.13 This response needs to at first be seen in  two parts. An example illustrates. To look at a sunset is to see an

T1:8.3 changes over time and it may take a hundred or a thousand or even  two thousand years for the real truth to be realized. Even though

T2:1.2 Treasure is most often seen in one of  two ways—as something valuable to be sought and found or as
T2:1.7 You may still see but  two choices: peace or struggle. But with such an attitude, you would

T2:4.3 you are rather than as who you are, you have not integrated these  two pieces of learning.
T2:4.8 are few among you who have not reacted to the idea of calling with  two sets of feelings and thoughts. One set of thoughts and feelings
T2:4.9 While  two sets of thoughts and feelings exist, the only way to come to
T2:4.9 claim your power is the willingness to move through the conflict of  two opposing sets of thoughts and feelings to the place of unity.
T2:5.6 These last  two calls, the call that appears in the form of a sign and the call
T2:9.7 This is what differentiates needs from wants. This is true in  two senses. It is true in that all needs, from survival needs to
T2:11.1 responsible for this truth. This forgiveness has now extended in  two distinct ways. First in forgiving your Creator for creating you
T2:11.15 It is from these  two separate ideas of relationship that the concept of doing battle
T2:11.15 as you believe that the ego is real, you will feel as if there are  two identities that exist within you and you will see yourself as
T3:1.11 you were to yourself and who you presented yourself to be could be  two completely different selves. Even within the illusion in which
T3:4.8 of Love has accomplished. Now the choice is before you to do one of  two things: to proceed toward love or fear. If you proceed with fear
T3:10.13 knowledge of Spanish would return. For a short while you would have  two languages constantly running through your mind and you would be
T3:11.11 Thus we begin to address the temptations of the human experience.  Two are spoken of in tandem here: The temptation to judge and the
T3:20.4 to request a miracle as a learning device. This learning device had  two aspects. The first was to reveal to you your fears concerning the
T3:21.3 There are no  two sides to the truth. There is not more than one truth. There is
T3:21.20 that it will serve your new purpose. Further, there are even  two aspects to this contradictory seeming answer. One is that your
T3:22.4 to be. This tension will continue if you are unable to integrate  two precepts of this course of learning into your new reality. One is
T4:1.11 to come to know themselves and God indirectly. These are the only  two choices, the choices between truth and illusion, fear and love,
T4:1.14 chosen time and you the chosen people. If the chosen time had been  two thousand years ago, life would have been different since then. If
T4:2.29 bad, but only need be steadily aware that you can only see in one of  two ways—with love or fear.
T4:5.13 at all, you have perhaps thought of the afterlife as having  two sides. Some have thought of this as heaven and hell. Others as
T4:12.5  Two changes of enormous proportions are upon you. The first is the
D:2.1 You are now asked to do  two things simultaneously: To accept the new and to deny the old.
D:2.2 for the acceptance of the true. Although you are called to these  two actions simultaneously—the action of acceptance and the action
D:4.13 The  two patterns, the internal and the external, were created together to
D:5.6 When  two bodies join and joy results from this joining, this is form
D:6.19 by abstaining from the unhealthy habits. You might look now at these  two attitudes and see that they are somewhat silly, but still you
D:6.27 sharing in unity, the All of Everything. So these  two states, the state of form and the state of unity, are both in
D:12.4 dialogue. A dialogue is most often thought of as a discourse between  two or more people and as such is associated with the spoken word.
D:12.11 you still think in the same way as before. I am about to make the  two main points of this discussion: The first is that thinking, with
D:13.2 the sharing of who you are and who you know others to be. There are  two issues of great import contained within this statement, and we
D:Day2.1 well as the Self of unity. It is time for the final merging of the  two into one Self, the elevated Self of form.
D:Day3.34 you expect a flowery answer, and surely not one that will be a “one,  two, three steps to abundance” answer; but I will try to address you
D:Day4.40 grass and the blue sea below? Why are we here but to show you these  two choices? From where else could you so clearly see the choice
D:Day10.2 of form and the Self of union and to, through this reliance, tie the  two together so that there is no seam, no boundary, no remaining
D:Day10.19 met challenges similar to your own. You have been unable to see the  two as the same for you have not realized this sameness in yourself.
D:Day10.20 voice of this dialogue as that belonging to the man Jesus who lived  two thousand years ago. To continue to identify this voice with that
D:Day10.20 to realize that this is the same voice that animated the man Jesus  two thousand years ago will aide you in realizing that this is the
D:Day10.22 of these statements mean. This is the culmination point of these  two great objectives coming together in you and your brothers and
D:Day10.35 partially because of your readiness. It is no accident that these  two aspects of urgency are converging. When your reliance on all that
D:Day15.5 obvious to what could not be observed physically. This practice had  two purposes. The first purpose was the establishment of a new kind
D:Day15.24 Without necessarily realizing it, your consciousness has been in  two places at once without being divided. As you re-enter life on
D:Day16.10 a feeling. Emotions are responses. You have been told there are but  two emotions, love and fear. What this is really saying is that there

D:Day18.2 relationship that occurs with the world. So do each of you. These  two ways also represent God and Christ-consciousness, the extension
D:Day19.12 never found the self. They fear losing the known to the unknown. The  two ways of demonstration make the unknown known. One makes the
D:Day19.16 room for comparison and judgment. Thus it is realistic to see the  two ways as intertwined circles existing in support and harmony with
D:Day22.2 separated the living and the dead, the spiritual and the human into  two states—states that could, at their most basic levels—be seen
D:Day27.2 remaining engaged in life. You have thus begun to experience on  two levels. This has been a goal of the time we have spent together
D:Day27.5 during our mountain top time together the ability to experience on  two levels.
D:Day27.7 a new way of seeing. You might think of this initially as having  two perspectives, an internal and an external perspective, a human
D:Day27.9 The  two levels of experience which you have been participating in are the
D:Day27.13 are is also a constant within the aspect of separation. Merge the  two, however, into one level of experience and the whole formula
D:Day27.14 This is what we move toward as we practice participating in  two levels of experience simultaneously. We practice experiencing the
D:Day28.13 Depending on the circumstances of your life, one of these  two attitudes will have a reverse side that will have a greater hold
D:Day28.15 Most people feel at least some combination of these  two attitudes, but will find that one is prevalent. You must now get
D:Day28.19 on by changing your experience of time to one of experiencing  two levels of “time.” Our “time” on the mountain would be more
D:Day28.26 Presently it is as if you follow  two threads, the thread that has led you to the mountain and the
D:Day28.26 you have not removed yourself. Now you must begin to weave these  two threads together into the tapestry of your new life. This weaving
D:Day28.26 life. This weaving will take place as you continue to intertwine the  two experiences that you are simultaneously holding within your

D:Day29.5 you, has been a part of the process that has allowed you access to  two levels of experience. It is your access to two levels of
D:Day29.5 allowed you access to two levels of experience. It is your access to  two levels of experience—the experience of wholeness and the
D:Day30.2 The  two levels of experience we have spoken of might be seen as the
D:Day30.4 without joining, thus the commonly known injunction of “where  two or more are joined together.” If you would think of this in terms
D:Day30.4 you would see that knower and known are one. You would see that  two or more are needed in order for knowing to occur. To not know
D:Day30.4 would be to be in a state of nothingness. Thus the joining of  two or more are needed in order for wholeness to be known and thus to
