NEVER GIVE UP

The ego runs on the variety of predictable patterns because the basis of its thought system is judgment whose origin is due to sin, fear and guilt. Judgment is definitely one or another. As you perceive a brother through judgment, you will project and judge on that brother until you perceive the outcomes back. Once those results are perceived, you will use perception repeatedly to project and judge them a lot more.

Unfortunately, this uses both sides of the ego wrong mind and compounds the original error until the facts are well hidden. Handing over judgments for correction (forgiveness) stops the cycle.

Holy Relationships:



The ego uses special love and hate relationships, as well as specialness (being different), to keep the illusion of separation going. Usage of these kind of relationships as cause, can be the ego mind as cause; and the result would be to continue separation between brothers because they’re using the original separation. Remember cause and effect: The mind you choose from, as cause, will result in the corresponding consequences (effect).

This is not about you having to be alone or avoid relationships in life. It really is, however, all about the method that you enter and utilize them within the mind.

The choice that may set you free would be to choose to have your relationships be Holy Relationships. You must be the person practicing forgiveness in all of your relationships, even if you are the only 1. It is “special” until you transform it “Holy.” To see another as a brother, a prerequisite to going home, is True Perception which shines a light of truth on you both. The ego cannot prevail against Oneness since it is not real.

a course in miracles online Form and Content:

A TRAINING COURSE in Miracles (ACIM) is very clear that form does not matter. There is nothing in ACIM about behavior and when you judge a brother on his or her behavior, this is the same side of the ego mind. They may be acting from the ego “wrong” mind; but you are judging from the ego “right” mind. To the ego, one judgment is the same as any other.

What the Course says is that content matters. Content may be the mind. ACIM concerns itself with you knowing that you can pick the Holy Spirit Right Mind as your internal Teacher thereby producing a different cause and effect.

What you or another does in form (behavior) does not matter. However here are two questions to ask yourself:

When I acted, did I act from the Holy Spirit Right Mind? (Content)
Is my interpretation of my brother from the Holy Spirit Right Mind? (Content)

You won’t have peace if you don’t can answer “yes” to both. Choose again if you need to. It is never too late.

There is ONLY 1 of Us:

When you judge a brother, you’re using the ego mind as cause for that judgment to become a real effect. For this reason we emphasize that what you see in another should be forgiven in yourself first. Here’s why: (1) You cannot see fault (judgment) in another if you don’t chose from that part of the split mind to begin with; (2) You cannot judge everything you don’t already believe to be true as it is using the mind you chose from; and (3) Judgment about another is a statement of the guilt retained in your thoughts from the original separation because you opting for to use the ego mind. It really is what your location is still holding onto fear and guilt rather than choosing correction (forgiveness) for the truth.

Absolutely anyone who turns up and you with a chance to heal your mind is really a gift you can use. Turn it into a Holy Relationship. This is one way you will return your own mind to God, and how others eventually see it for themselves. Hold the light of forgiveness which gives all minds an opportunity to make a different choice. Judge plus they run and hide further into darkness and error.

A Call for Love:

Attack is a conscious mind behavior based on projection, judgment and perception. The ego’s point would be to protect separate identity and for that reason, all attack is really a demand love, or forgiveness, that is joining. The more determined you’re to know the truth about yourself and a brother, the more you’ll choose contrary to the ego’s attacks and only correction (forgiveness) from the proper Mind.

Responding with love can mean a lot of things and sometimes, it can even mean no response. Other times, you may want a boundary or to take some action. To respond with love, you absolutely should be practicing forgiveness and using the Right Mind to turn total attack and judgment. The Holy Spirit will provide you with a solution if you completely turn compared to that Right Mind for help. “Completely” may be the key word.

Eventually you see no attack (error) occurred which is to know the reality about you as well as your brother. There is absolutely no defense necessary (“defenselessness” on the Split Mind diagram). When you share your willingness not to see error, you have shared what you want to help keep and learn on your own. What you share you find you have.

Sharing:

Sharing methods to allow yourself to give to another what you need them to have. Your only reason for doing this is basically because it is what you would like to have on your own. You’re teaching them what you want to be yours. Teaching is instruction of ideas and principles. Do this and you may find you have it because you’ve literally said, “Give back to me what I’ve taught you.”
