No subject

Per ACIM forgiving is not pardoning but that is another subject.
At our choosing here in the illusion we continue to come back lifetime after lifetime feeling separate from our Heavenly Father. When the illusion will end is up to each of us as Jesus explains in lesson 132.
Then as we individually forgive the world and leave the illusion we move to a state of mind called, REAL WORLD.
When the last person forgives the world, God will usher us to awareness of being with Him in our Heavenly Home of incredible love, peace, joy, happiness, splendor and beauty far beyond our imagination here in the illusion.
If anyone reading this post has questions about ACIM teachings I will try to answer them or refer you to someone who can.
Blessings and love,

<P><FONT face=Arial size=3>My comments below refer to the concept that: </P>
<P><B>consciousness itself exists independent of brains, and that matter is the result of consciousness, not the other way around. </P></B>
<P>This concept is in Henry Reeds << [Consciousness] 2012 and the Return of Quetzalcoatl >> dated: Tuesday, March 11, 2008. </P>
<P>As in the past I will use A Course in Miracles (ACIM) teachings, channeled by Jesus and published in 1975 to discuss the concept. </P></FONT><FONT face=Arial>
<P>In ACIM creations are defined as being eternal. Thus our perception of a physical world and its contents are not a creations. </P>
<P>As in the Bible, God is defined as SPIRIT in ACIM. </P>
<P>In Reality (eternity) we are still as God Created us and will be so, forever. </P>
<P>All that God creates is Real, meaning eternal. God creates by extension of Himself and we are each a spiritual extension of God as a Thought in His Mind. </P>
<P>
. The term Mind maning Gods Mind is used 143 times in ACIM
..</P>
<P>
The term mind (lower case m) is used 1607 times. </P>
<P>In effect everything is in the Mind of God.</P>
<P>Using the unlimited power of His Mind we imagined a physical world of separation from God our source. The ACIM exlanation fo this is interesting. Here is the way we made the illusion of our physical world. </P>
<P>------------------</P></FONT><B><FONT face=Arial size=3>
<P align=center>LESSON 325. All things I think I see reflect ideas.</P>
<P>.</P>
<P>W-325.1:1 This is salvation's keynote: What I see reflects a process in my mind, which starts with my idea of what I want. </P>
<P>. . . . . 2 From there, the </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=4>mind</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=3> makes up an image of the thing the mind desires, judges valuable, and therefore seeks to find. </P>
<P>. . . . . 3 </FONT><U><FONT face=Arial size=4>These images are then projected outward, looked upon, esteemed as real and guarded as one's own. </P></U></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=3>
<P>. . . . . 4 From insane wishes comes an insane world. </P>
<P>. . . . . 5 From judgment comes a world condemned. </P>
<P>. . . . . 6 And from forgiving thoughts a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while before he journeys on, and help </P>
<P>his brothers walk ahead with him, and find the way to Heaven and to God</B>.</FONT><B><FONT face=Arial> </P></B>
<P>--------------------</P>
<P>ACIM teaches that the ego is our <B>belief</B> in being separate from God, born in a body and doomed to end our life in death. <B><U>CONSCIOUSNESS is the domain of the ego </P></B></U>
<P>You have probably guessed my answer to where conscious is. </P></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=3>
<P><B>consciousness itself exists independent of brains, and that matter is the result of consciousness, not the other way around. </P></B></FONT><FONT face=Arial>
<P>I believe consciousness is a thought is our mind that we </FONT><B><U><FONT face=Arial size=4>projected outward, looked upon, esteemed as real and guarded as one's own. </B></U></FONT><FONT face=Arial>Thus has no real meaning. </P>
<P>------------------------</P>
<P>From sentence 6 in above lesson it becomes obvious that the way we release the illusion is to forgive it. </P>
<P>Per ACIM forgiving is not pardoning but that is another subject. </P>
<P>At our choosing here in the illusion we continue to come back lifetime after lifetime feeling separate from our Heavenly Father. When the illusion will end is up to each of us as Jesus explains in lesson 132. </P>
