A Course In Miracles

I Am the Light of the World
Lessons 61 – 66: In Which We Continue our Creative Self Identity

This is the prologue to the end of time. It is a miraculous happening that is occurring as we gather here together in this idea of mind conversion. Many of you sharing this time and place have embarked, or will now decide to embark, on a course that is in actuality a spiritual transformation. It is impossible that anything is happening to you but by accident. In other words, you are going to be the cause of it. We have high hopes that right here and right now in this time and place, we have opened a wholly new, previously rejected, or barely imagined possibility of what? - a direct contact with the eternal creating energy of universal mind. That you have touched the mind of God, which is after all your natural inheritance, and that you are beset with the mysteriously thrilling inescapable dilemma of a spiritual experience absolutely not of this world. Listen…or even in this time and place.

This new reality has nothing at all to do with the phantom world that previously surrounded you. Indeed, this is the very world that you are about to escape from. Don’t be afraid now. You are not going to be abruptly lifted up and hurled into reality, although for many, this has now become an incredibly joyous happening, isn’t it? Time is kind, and if you use it on behalf of reality, it will keep gentle pace with you in your transition. Listen. The urgency is only in dislodging your mind from its fixed position here and now. This will not leave you homeless and without a frame of reference. Don’t be afraid. The period of disorientation, which precedes the actual transition, is far shorter than the time it took to fix your mind so firmly on illusion. Look with me. Let this dislodgement be a positive inspirational adventure, rather than a fearful episode of loss of self -containment. In this place of chaotic darkness that you call home, reality must appear as a continuing expose. This may be your first major exposure to the energetic catalyst that is a total provision for the conversion of your temporal self-identity. Look. These are the great rays, or light streams, emanating from minds that are joining and extending in a common goal of awakening.

Now, reactions to some of the ideas about the mind training will range for many of you, perhaps, from a very vicious blind denial, or a cunning meaningless attempt to interpret to exciting dramatic shifts in self-awareness. Listen. Presently, for many, the ultimate time re-association of self- recognition that is the phenomenal light transfiguration of the body resurrection simply as it stands for a moment at Heaven’s gate. Simply ask this and all is given you: Am I alone in the universe reliving again and again and again the existence of the fear and pain and death that is only my own personal nightmare of separation? Or, am I as God created me, eternally happy, at home in Heaven where I really am and have always been? Take heart, dreamer of death. Live each moment with the simple certainty of the whole truth of the matter in all of your science pursuit. God is a simple fact of the matter.

Because God is a simple fact of the matter in this place and time that you have designated for my appearance within this range of consciousness - a continuing alteration by a re-association of how you want to look at yourself in the idea of the practice of the continuation of our minds.

I’m glad you joined me. Are you here with me now? Look with me for a moment. That opening, the opening to the whole idea that you are now, individually, actively participating in the change of mind that is going on here, will be very important to you. Very simply because you have decided at last within you own frequency of light to begin on a continuing basis to always ask…say to me: “for something else.” Yes. Thank you for that. Now, there it is. Now, that moment in which you released me, the moment in which you said to me, I’m going to look again, was available to me. Remember in the practice that we just concluded in regard to the reappearance of what is termed The Master Teacher in the evidence that you intend to make application? Remember? Remember this? Remember your Course In Miracles? Remember the idea in your own mind that, starting right here and now, with any advent that you could begin actually to participate in the idea of a whole alternative that is going on in your mind…in a whole alternative that is going on in your mind?

Look with me. I can open this anywhere. I’m going to demonstrate it. May I digress just for a moment? Look with me. My intentions in coming here today were to proceed with ideas in mind training beyond the first fifty lessons which we have successfully reviewed in demonstrations of our physical capacity to change our body formulation. I’m going to practice. Shall we try a little magic going on here? Since all of the proceeding of this Course contain everything you will ever want to know at any given time, the arbitrary idea that I will open this Course at a time and read to you the evidence of what I want to say to you, are a prelude to the idea that you have actually been successful, right here and right now, not last week, not when you did the first fifty lessons, but right here and right now, you have been successful in the fundamental idea…shall we use the sentence? Do you want to practice with me? Say to me: “I’m the light of the world.” Who? Who is the light of the world? (I am.) Are you? Now, thank you. That exchange you had with me at that moment was what? – The light of the universe. The whole light of the universe was nothing but the totality of a reflection, within a captivity of space/time that had previously defined your self.

Here we go. I’m going to open it up now and let’s see what it has to say. Let’s see what it has to say about you. Listen.

The power of decision is your one remaining freedom as a prisoner of this world. And you can decide to see it right here and now. What you make of it is not its reality, for its reality is only what you have given it. You cannot really give anything but love to anyone or anything, nor can you really receive anything but love from them. If you think you have received anything else, it is because you have looked within and thought you saw the power to give something else within yourself. It was only this decision that determined what you found, for it was the decision for what you are looking for or are afraid to find. Listen.

You are afraid of me because you looked within and are afraid of what you saw. Yet you could not have seen reality, for the reality of your mind is the loveliest of God’s creations. Coming only from God, its power and its grandeur could only bring you peace if you really looked upon it. If you are afraid, it is because you saw something that is not there. Yet in that same place you could have looked upon me and all your brothers, in the perfect safety of the Mind which created us. For we are there in the peace of the Father, Who wills to extend His peace.

One more idea:

When you have accepted your mission to extend peace you will find peace, for by making it manifest you will see it. Its holy witnesses will surround you because you called upon them, and they will come to you as you have called. I have heard your call and I have answered it, but you will not look upon me nor hear the answer that you sought. That is because you don’t yet really know what you want. Yet as I become more real to you, you will learn that you do want only that within your mind. And you will see me as you look within, and we will look upon the real world together. Through the eyes of Christ, only the real world exists and only the real world can be seen. As you decide so will you see. And all that you see but witnesses to your own decision about yourself, and what you want to see within your own mind.

(T12, VII: 9)

There is a great deal of joy going on now in the kingdom and the purposefulness of the idea of the representation of a whole mind. We are using the factor of my savior, Jesus of Nazareth, who has been particularly involved with the possibility that the new direction that you intend to get out of your faculty of mind – look just for a moment at how progressive you have been in the mind training.

The only possibility you ever had in all of space/time, shall we practice? – Was to say: “To know who I am.” Yes, of course. In all of the universe, and certainly this includes the billions of stars, the galaxies that appear to be out there, and the power of my mind to decide the outcome that I want within my space/time episode, can only be…listen…ideas that I have about myself. Now, for that moment in space/time - look with me - it might have appeared that the reflection of the power of light in evidence of what I wanted to see at that time in the memories that I have about continuing alternatives that occur within ranges – look with me - of the beginning and the end of time, are where this practice of the idea of the miracle proceeding of the power of my mind to decide the outcome that I want have made this available to me. Thank you.

I see you have been working with the first fifty lessons. Suddenly, here you are in an idea of yourself, and you are beginning, within that factor, to actually meet individuals who are experiencing their own conversion in the determination of the power of their mind to see an outcome of mind, that while it is momentarily connected to a range – thank you again for that – of light necessity of body healing or body conversion, it actually represented to me at that moment the idea that I would continue with the power of your mind, to decide the outcome that you want that is in an entirely different place that just a moment ago you occupied. How happy you are to discover…there it is, there is a new place for you! What did you do? You released the necessity to defend yourself in the occupancy of what you wanted to see within the power of decision that was yours to make.

There are now going out, in what appears to be this slow time factor of light, more and more of you who are undergoing a revelatory re-association of your body form. And suddenly you discovered to your amazement that in all of the power of the universe, you had been participating, in fear, of the complete conversion of your body form. And that is how we got to the lesson that I’m about to perform with you in the idea that it is possible for you to actually participate with me in my certainty - this is directly from the Source of our reality - of all of the power that there could ever be, in all of this universal idea of reflection of light, is going on right here now in the activity, that we have set up a parameter of light in which we are going to stop trying to determine what is out there, and simply recognize in the admission through the practice of it… will you say it with me? “I’m the light of the world.” Yes.

The world is not that big of a deal guys! Come on! If there is a whole universal power a million times greater than this out there, why would the proceeding of the idea of self consciousness – let’s use Homosapien for a moment – the idea of the containment of the DNA of your body form concern you, if it is undergoing constant revelation of re-identity of how you feel about yourself through the use of light? Because the universe itself can be nothing but the idea of the entirety of the power of creative reality without regard – listen to me – of any darkness that occurred in the mass density in which you had retained the idea of a reflection of light that did not show you in the practice of the mind training in Lesson 61 – are you ready? – That all of the power of the light is with you.

Will you listen with me? Listen with me how valuable this can be in the idea of practicing together this alternative, as you just did with me, didn’t you? You reviewed those lessons and suddenly you’ve turned the page, and here we are. And here we are in a brand new light.

Listen.

“I am the light of the world.”

Who is the light of the world except God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about yourself. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of arrogance, or of self-deception. It does not describe the self-concept you have made. It does not refer to any of the characteristics with which you have endowed your idols of identity. It refers to you as you were created by God. It simply states the truth. And you listen with me.

True humility requires that you accept today's idea because it is God's Voice Which tells you that it is true. Look. This is a beginning step in accepting your real function on earth and why you’re here. It is a giant stride toward taking your rightful place in the idea of salvation. It is a positive assertion of your right to be saved, and an acknowledgment of the power that is given you to save others, within your idea as you declare in this lesson, “I am the light of the world.”

This is the only reason that I am here and this is why I’m here, to demonstrate to you that certainty. That’s why just for a moment, I’m going to provide you with an additional idea of the pertainment of light that is representing our conversion within our own mind. Do you see that? Here is the provision, of the activity of the power of your mind, to decide whether you want to set up factors of light within the idea of the healing mechanism. That is, if we are going to be provisions for mind training, we have to decide that the more we continue to make application of our Self, that is, the more determined we are to make provisions of light in the recognition of the distance, for example, between my idea about what you are, and my idea about what you are, are efforts on my part - and I’m going to use the words in the idea of Lesson number 62 - of the activity of my mind that are the requirement for the idea of the light in which I appear to be. Very simply it’s this: Lesson number 62 is going to say the action of my mind in regard to what I appear to see out there will be an important provision in the idea of the utilization of the power of light that represents the universe.

Lesson 62. Listen.

“Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world.”

It is your forgiveness that will bring the world of darkness to the light. It is your forgiveness that lets you recognize the light in which you see. Forgiveness is the demonstration that you are the light of the world. Through your forgiveness of yourself, does the truth about yourself return to your memory of who you really are. Therefore, in your forgiveness lies your salvation.

Illusions about yourself and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift to yourself. Your goal is to find out who you are, having denied your own Identity by attacking your Creator and its creation. Now you are learning how to remember the truth. Now you are learning how to remember. For this attack must be replaced by forgiveness, so that thoughts of life may replace thoughts of death.

So that thoughts of life, in that reflection of light, that showed you a whole new vision of your idea about yourself, have increased dramatically the idea of a key word in our practice of mind training. Say to me: “forgiveness.” Somewhere you have arrived at a totality of realization that you are the cause of this. So that as you look out into the world and see yourself being attacked, and defend yourself within the nature of what you wanted to see, what do you see? The necessity to forgive the act of what appears to be happening in the attack and defense of the motivation for which you appear to be trapped in space/time.

You are doing this to yourself. That’s better! The idea that you were attacking yourself in the idea of those first fifty lessons, you simply decided what? I’m going to let it go. What happened? The moment you didn’t defend yourself you saw a whole new parameter of light. A whole new parameter of light was available to you in that perspective.

Now, here’s what we are going to do. I’ll leave you just for a moment in the idea that we are going to make progress in the idea of the mind conversion of yourself. We’re going to look at the idea that I no longer intend to defend myself, since the only thing that could possibly be attacking me, at this time and place, were my individual determination not to allow a penetration of the light - that we are going to get to aren’t we, excitingly, in Lesson 63, and Lesson 64 - where we begin to see a new perspective of light, that demonstrates a continuing conversion in the simple recognition that all of this is actually the space that we’re in.

I’m going to leave you for that moment. Watch us now. Here is the conversion of the mind formulation of ourself, where we gain a new momentum of the happiness and joy in the expression that I’m seeing you right there. And that suddenly, in my exchange with you, I depend on your recognition of me, in your recognition of yourself. And we discover together how much we actually share in the mission we have accepted in the idea of this conversion of our mind because God is with us, isn’t He, in what we’re doing. He is the mind of the application of this, and we can say together: “God, will you bless us, each and everyone?” And the faculty, by which I got you to return here to show you that evidence, are ones that we have made together…that we have made together…that we have made together…that we have made together in this light.

Song: “Unchained Melody”

Oh, my love, my darling, I’ve hungered for your touch, a long lonely time.

And time goes by so slowly, and time can do so much. Are you still mine?

I need your love. I need your love. God speed your love to me.

Lonely rivers flow, to the sea, to the sea. To the open arms of the sea.

Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me. I’ll be coming home, wait for me.

Oh, my love, my darling, I’ve hungered for your touch, a long lonely time.

And time goes by so slowly, and time can do so much. Are you still mine?

I need your love. I need your love. God speed your love to me.

Listen.

There is a place in you where this whole world has been forgotten; where no memory of sin and of illusion lingers still. There is a place in you which time has left, and echoes of eternity are heard. There is a resting place so still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden God the Father and the Son. Where Both abide together and are remembered. And where They are in Heaven and in the peace of themselves. (T:29:V:1)

Look with me, we’re resting here for a moment, to play our final, happy game upon this earth. And then we go to take our rightful place where truth abides and games are meaningless. So is the story ended. Let this day bring the last chapter closer to the world, that everyone may learn the tale he reads of terrifying destiny, defeat of all his hopes, his pitiful defense against a vengeance he can not escape, is but his own deluded fantasy. God's ministers have come to waken him from the dark dreams this story has evoked in his confused, bewildered memory of this distorted tale. God's Son can smile at last, on learning that none of this was ever true. (L153:14)

And you are still here. Listen. You are in a brand new place. There is some great science teaching about the power of your mind to make decisions about what you want to see out in the universe. I’m going to begin a practice in Lesson 63, if I intend to evoke the power of decisions that you can make in regard to what you want to see. The idea, this is called – I’m going to use a particular word here – “quantum” – say to me: “entanglement.” Yes. In the latest science ideas about the power of decision out in the universe, they are discovering in molecular idea of conversion of the mind, that they can communicate, and even including up to the speed of light, in a direct observation of the location in which they are finding themselves in a mutual intent – say to me, shall I practice? – “To remain exactly where you are.”

Now, the whole idea of this teaching, as long you objectively try to find another association within your own light formulation, that’s what you’re going to see. And while you share the happiness of the procedure of his mind - I’m going to practice the idea of conversion of the youthfulness of joy that can be yours if you decide you want it now – you’ll look out there and you will appear to see somebody who is in a different cycle of space/time that you are in and is surrounded by his own procedure of limitation that he has imposed on himself in order to remain within that factor. So you establish a distance between you in what you justify within your own mind as a reflection of yourself, and at that moment have literally subtracted yourself, which is actually a simple reflection of what you want to see him as, and are determined that somehow he is going to represent all of these figures that are around you. Not true. The figures that are around you will appear in your own mind, exactly as how you want them to look.

That’s why I’m termed…I guess you would call me an advanced teacher. The more I practice the conversion, here we go, the more I intend to practice with you – thank you – the conversion of the activity that I am, now say to me: “the light of the world.” I got you to say it again. It doesn’t mean that you necessarily knew absolutely that you were. But it does mean this: you are using reflection of light in what you want to see in correspondence with yourself in the idea that at any moment, listen, without regard to the chaos that appears to be going on out in this world – in the idea that we’re all going to get together and search for peace and happiness without regard to the necessity that the containment of it is entirely in my own mind. Watch me. Yet when I feel the joy, you may feel that joy with me if you choose. Shall we practice? The time that you feel that joy will be surrounding us in a new parameter of time that has raised the frequency of the place where I wanted to recognize you out in this universe in the idea that when I communicate, I’m not alone. I can share with you the certainty of the power of my mind that indeed, I am the light of the world, and so are you.

Will you listen with me? This is the value of the mind training. This is the joy that you are experiencing now in a constant idea that that conversion is available to you.

Listen.

“The light of the world brings peace to every mind

through my forgiveness.”

How holy are you who have the power to bring peace to every mind! How blessed are you who can learn to recognize the means for letting this be done through you! What purpose could you have that would bring you greater happiness, than the idea of the joy I am sharing in my love for you?

You are indeed the light of the world with this function. The Son of God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours to give him, for it belongs to you. Look with me. Accept no trivial purpose or meaningless desire in its place, or you will forget your function and leave the Son of God in that dark form in hell. You listen with now. This is no idle request that is being asked of you. You are being asked to accept salvation that it may be yours to give away.

Listen. Here is what we’re going to do today:

“The light of the world brings peace to every mind

through my activity of forgiveness. I am the means God has

appointed for the salvation of the world.”

Remember that God's Son looks to you for his salvation. And who but your Self must be His Son?

And who but yourself, in the practice of the conversion of the power of your own mind, could be anything but a continuing - say to me: “memory.” Now say to me: “reminder.” Here. Shall we practice? I’m going to take about seven minutes and show you how the conversion of the cellular idea, of the idea of the faculty of the physicalness of your body form works. Will you look with me? If all of the power in the universe is evident to you only within your own mind, then the power of the universe that is being used, is already included in with your necessity to demonstrate to me my certainty of the love for you that I just felt in the extra-galactic idea of the power of decision that was mine to make – say to me: “another idea.”

Since I am a factor of memory, the lesson that I was going to perform now, or tomorrow with you, was nothing but the idea that you must remember. Will you say this with me? You must remember because, for that moment, you had forgotten. Why would you possibly believe that you could actually not know who you are, or what you’re doing, or why you’re here? And from that moment on do everything within your power to hold the conflict that then becomes a part of your mind in your refusal to simply say, - whatever it is in the memory that I have about all of the chaos, and the pain, and the loneliness, and the death and the entrapment of myself in time, - I don’t want it anymore.

I have been with you in my mind without regard to my body form. I love it so much. The old man loves to teach. Look at this. Would you actually look at that? Look! Did you see what occurred just then? What is wrong with an idea of going out into the universe? Say to me, “I’m never going to be able to do that!” Say it. Of course not! You have no memory that is anything but a containment of the entrapment of you in the idea of space/time, and that’s what the mind training is for.

The mind training, in the return of a faculty of a perfect man, from outside of time, is nothing but to offer you, and I’m going to do it with you right now, shall we practice? – Wherever else you are, this is not where you belong.

Look with me. There is a memory in you, through the practice of the lessons of the 60’s and the 70’s, in the mind training of the course in the miracle of conversion of your mind that had been successful in offering you another memory that you just had with me, as I remembered you. Remember the song, “I Remember You”? “You’re the one who made my dreams come true.”

What has occurred? You’ve lost your fear of holding on to the defense of yourself in the new reflection of light that is bringing you into a present condition of how you wanted to see yourself in this continuum of time as you practice this lesson of remembering…of remembering. Just as you remembered me right there.

Look with me. Never mind what is over and gone. Let it go. Never mind what’s going to happen tomorrow. The practice of you in the idea of conversion of your mind has brought us together, hasn’t it? Look. All sorts of replications of our self, where you are suddenly turning, releasing the defense that you had imposed on yourself, and broadening the range of the conversion of light by which I know you, and by which you know me, as we see each other as a common denominator of the entirety of the provision of the conversion of our mind.

Listen with me, about memory. Remember about memory? Listen. Listen.

“Let me not forget my function.”

Here is why I am here. I’m here in a physical appearance. Look.

Today's idea is another way of saying "Let me not wander into temptation." Because the purpose of the world you see is to obscure your function of forgiveness, and provide you with a justification for forgetting all about it. Are you going to listen? – and seeing yourself as a body. It is the temptation to abandon God and His Son, I’m going to teach you, by taking on a physical appearance. It is this that the body's eyes are looking upon. You listen with me.

Nothing the body's eyes seem to see can be anything but another form of temptation, since this was the purpose of the body itself, to keep you trapped in space/time. Look. Yet we have learned that the Holy Spirit has another use for all the illusions you have made, and therefore He sees another purpose in them. You listen. To the Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself what you think of as your sins and separation and death. In this perception, the physical appearance of temptation becomes the spiritual recognition of salvation.

I have to come back with you just for a moment. I saw you see it - the idea of the necessity to teach physical transformation. Remember about the stem cell research in the idea that you can reproduce within your own mind? - A reflection of light that will be a provision for a new body formulation that will be contained in the spirit of the light energy of you. Look, not in regard to the dark formulation of yourself, that you have insisted in order to re-enact an unforgiving act in your determination to pitifully empower yourself with the idea that you have been very successful in maintaining a notation, look, of a location in space/time, and to simply suffer the consequences of holding yourself together.

In this lesson, we have come to recognize that the physicalness of the body identity that I appear to have within the illusion of the dream sequence I’m in, can at any moment be a physical provision, from my recognition of your physical provision of yourself, in a continuing alteration of the necessity within – let’s use the term gravity or dark light – to defend yourself and to proceed with ideas of the retention of space/time in which you appear to live out this little pitiful cycle of the idea that the whole universe does not await your decision to afford you a conversion of physical resignation, and resurrection, in the idea that that formulation has come into our being together.

So much of the provision in the reappearance of my savior Jesus, depends very simply on your recognition that physically, he is present with you at any time and space that you want to see yourself in a new physical appearance of yourself, in a decision to allow the continuing activity of cellular conversion of your body. Do you remember me?...The Master Teacher taught the idea of 120 years, and suddenly can be recycled in quantum, in any idea you want to have about yourself.

Now, look with me. You can appear and disappear out in the universe any time and any place you want to. But the activity of the power of decision will always be yours. And the power of decision of continuing application of a healing - I’m using the term now, conversion from sickness and pain and death to the wellness of your body form - are the whole ideas of a memory of your coming into this moment, being here for a moment, and being gone out into the universe, in the joyous recognition that we are now sharing as you return momentarily to this faculty to be the provision for the conversion of the light that is inherent in you.

Will you listen? – Just a little bit more about the idea that you’re meeting yourself. You’re meeting yourself. That was you! Are you glad to see yourself? Say: “I’m happy.” Why not? You see? If you fall apart entirely, you’ll be the power of the universe! If you hold yourself together, it will be so that I can offer you, through my forgiveness, a reflection of the love that I’m feeling for you right now, in the recognition that while you appear to be entirely a separate identity within your own mind, that we are actually sharing the entirety of the power of our light to decide that we may appear in this so-called quantum entanglement, anywhere we want, as we joyously meet in the passion of the idea of the conversion of that light. Remember? Remember? Remember? Listen.

The world’s salvation awaits your forgiveness, because through it does the Son of God escape from all illusions, and thus from all temptation, to be a body form. The Son of God is you.

Now look with me. Every time you choose whether or not to fulfill the reason why you are here, you are choosing whether or not that you want to be happy, in today’s lesson.

Let’s remember together. Look with me. Prepare yourself in advance for all the decisions we will make today by remembering they are all extremely simple in the conversion. Each one will lead to happiness or unhappiness. One or the other – come on! Can such a simple decision really be difficult to make? Look with me. Let not the form of the decision deceive you. Complexity of the idea of the formulation of your body does not imply complexity of content. Look with me. It is impossible that any decision on earth can have a content different from just this one simple choice. Am I going to be happy, or am I going to be unhappy? That is the only choice that the spirit of light energy sees, and therefore, it is the only choice that you have.

Let’s practice one time together:

Let me not forget why I am here.

Let me not try to substitute the idea of my physical body formulation.

Let me forgive the activities by which I have been instructed by this world,

And let me be happy with you as I look together, because…

This is the world world that it is my reason to save because I have actively assumed that responsibility.

Thank you for that light. The point we’re at right now in our spiritual conversion of mind in the lessons of the mind training, have put us in a position – remember All About God And How To Find Him? – Remember you are carrying that around with you, and suddenly are meeting others who are also carrying that around with them? Shall we practice? Each time you actually look at them, you are in a different time and place, but you’ve been so fearful about the idea of losing the time and place that you’re in, trapped in the space/time in which you find yourself, that up until now you didn’t realize – look with me – that sitting right next to you there, can be the entirety of the solution within his own space/time, very simply because he has decided that he wants the solution himself. Look. And since your decision is constantly changing with him, the new activity will put you in a brand new place, although the dark formulation of yourself appears to bind everyone within the idea of the location of the longevity of space/time.

What we are really saying together in the reappearance of Jesus, in what we term the resurrection of your body, is very simply, that the resurrection of your body is actively going on at this time and place, and what you’ve been seeing together, holding in pain and fear, have now been released by your mind, in which I share with you that release.

We know each other. We know each other very well. I have a very intense memory of the performance of Lessons 64 and 65, in the mind training of our Course, where I recognize that I am simultaneously converting the physical body of myself, to a new physical idea about myself in that healing factor, because God, the new measurement of me, has gone with me in this time and place. And the new place and time that we are in together is not like this old world in that we previously held ourselves. Because of the new vision of light, we have discovered in our recognition of each other, in the love that I’m feeling for you, in that body form…and the whole universe is welcoming us out into the universe, without the necessity to use our body at all.

And we may say together: God bless us, you and I, in this new provision, each and everyone… each and everyone. You are the light of the world.
