It just came to me today to come on and do a live broadcast here because I've just been floating along and being carried by Jesus into the depths of mysticism and the light. And always I do receive lots of emails and messages. I appreciate that. I appreciate you pouring your hearts out of what's going on. I see every message is just a prayer from the heart. What is it that I want to give? What is it that I would receive? Regardless of the form of the message or the form of the presenting of the seeming personal issues, you know, there's a deep call. My need is your need and our need is God. And by God I mean the light and the heavenly light of God's grace. So it's beautiful to come together with you and I've received a couple messages just in the last day or so about questions and prayers around suicide and suicidal thoughts. I've received messages around sickness and illness and escape from pain. I've received lots of messages of course of love and gratitude and which I just share in so deeply. And it's just a joy for me actually to join in the truth and just keep focusing on the truth to be right-minded, to have true empathy, to keep the mind on the heavenly direction of the light and keep the focus on the light as they say, keep your eye on the prize. Well, the prize is just not an earthly prize, but it's a remembrance of God. And we are so called together to remember God. Every speck of guidance and intuition that we've ever received is just to bring us to remembrance of God, remembrance of our source. It was never about making something in the world or making something different in the world or making something better in the world. It was never about changing the world as Jesus tells us, seek not to change the world, seek rather to change your mind about the world. Seek to join with the Holy Spirit and see from the Holy Spirit's perspective, be able to see the false as false. That's what the miracle does. It does nothing. All the miracle does is undo. It looks and waits and watches and judges not. So in that sense, we're praying to be in the line with the Holy Spirit's perspective. We're praying for that, that we may know Christ's vision, that we may see the light, that we may see beyond the body's eyes and the body's ears and nose and taste and smell and touch. In all those five senses, there's a bright light and sometimes people see it in the near-death experiences. Sometimes people have a revelatory experience. Sometimes people see angels and then there's a bright light behind the angels that the angels are representing and that's beautiful. It's all beautiful because it's all part of being called home to remember the truth. So for me, I woke up the day and I started really being, Jesus started off talking about the impossibility of manifesting. I know manifesting is a kind of a key idea and a lot of spiritualities and a lot of spiritual pathways and it's kind of popular in terms of books like The Secret and movie like The Secret or different philosophies and spiritualities that pretty much focus on the manifesting and using the power of the mind to make the kind of world and have the kind of outcomes that you want. And Jesus was just reminding me, he said, well, when you're asleep and dreaming, you don't know the best outcomes because they're all outcomes or projections of the mind, the wrong mind. And the right mind just sees all of the images as equally false, that there's no order of difficulty in miracles because there's no order of difficulty, there's no levels of illusions. All illusions are the same illusion, the belief that you can be separate from God. So the wake up is really just lining up with the Holy Spirit and just seeing the false is false in the most simple direct terms. So what we call manifesting is just a belief. And this belief is the belief that you can make a world unlike God, unlike the light, unlike truth, oneness, unlike abstraction, unlike the kingdom of heaven. You can make a world apart from heaven, and then you can interact inside of this projection. And that interaction is always involving stress. That's why people claim, I feel anxious or I feel anxiety. That's why people feel depression, sadness, loneliness. That's why people express feeling fear is because the mind when it's asleep and dreaming of a world is trying to find a solution in the world of images. And as Jesus told us 2000 years ago, the kingdom of heaven is within. The kingdom of heaven is at hand and it's very close, but it's behind the world of images. It's the light that the images, the veil of separation was made by the ego to hide the light and to keep the mind from remembering God. Very straight, very straightforward. That's the context of things. So with manifesting, it's like the belief is in manifesting, which is the belief that thoughts can be made into images, and that is a dollop tree, you could say, using a biblical term, and that these idols can then take on a life of their own. Well, there is one life in that I share with God. Life is eternal life. Anything that isn't eternal life isn't life at all. Pinocchio, you know, cippetto makes a puppet and then the puppet seems to come to life and then the trouble starts for Pinocchio. He gets lured off. He doesn't listen to Jiminy Cricket, his intuitive voice that's there. He actually gets lured into Pleasure Island and that's an island of duality, of a combination of boys and donkeys into one. From Jesus's perspective, well, even if you don't go to that extreme of little boys and donkeys together, half boy, half donkey, Jesus is saying that people believing yourself to be a body, which God did not create, believing yourself to be a person in the world of separation in time and space, linear time, which God did not create. This is the belief in manifesting and Jesus is taking us deep inward on this journey into mysticism, deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper still, like all the mystics and saints, into a point of realization of letting go. And everything is designed. All the guidance is designed for the letting go. Everything that you feel intuitively that you've ever been guided to do or to not do is all meant to let go of the doer, to let go of the personhood, to let go of the belief that you have an identity that's an individual that's apart from the Christ self, the light. So, we have the mind of God and Christ is an idea and the mind of God. I just saw the Barbie movie recently and toward the end of the movie, Rhea Perlman, you might remember her from the Taxi series, was married to Dani DeVito for years. Basically, she's the inventor, the original inventor of Barbie doll of Barbara. It started off as the Barbie doll and then she utters the beautiful line, ideas live forever. People don't. And there's actually in the Barbie movie, that's pretty metaphysical. That is the teachings of, of course, the miracles that that Christ is an idea in the mind of God and Christ lives forever in the mind of God. And the father and son are one, they're both spirit, they're both pure light. That's what the kingdom of heaven is. It's pure love and light. And that the kingdom of heaven and God and Christ is all what we would call creation, pure abstract creation, no images, no time and space, just abstract oneness, eternal abstract oneness. That's reality. So what we seem to perceive through the five senses is by definition, unreality. Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Heaven, God, Christ in the mind of God cannot be threatened. And nothing unreal exists. That's all of time and space. The rest of the cosmos, all the issues, all the issues of suicide are coming down to basically, do I want the problem or do I want the answer? I just saw that in the, the chorus in the text. That's, that's a pretty direct question to ask yourself, do I want the problem or do I want the answer? If you experience a symptom, do I want the problem or do I want the answer? Do I want the problem of separation? Do I want the problem of the ego of death wish or do I want the atonement, the correction, the ultimate atonement, the first miracle, the last miracle and all the miracles in between, the atonement, the correction, you know, complete escape from the past and a total lack of interest in the future. You know, some of you might remember that Ram Das book that was popular many years ago, decades ago. Be Here Now is a call into the present moment. Ekratali, power of now, a call into the present moment. Being present, being in presence, being in pure awareness, being in that awareness of the, of the oneness, of the light, of the love. That's it. That's the solution. It's, it's, it's coming away, getting your mind's attention away from looking to form to change, looking for something to change in the body, looking for something to change in the world, looking for something to get better in the world, looking for a better outcome in the world, having a future goal for something better in your body, your, your world, in your interpersonal relationship that's still looking in the form and God didn't create the form. God knows not form, Jesus says, period, in the beyond idol section and the later part of the text. Jesus is really clear that this is about letting go of the world. He describes it very clearly in lesson 158. And then prior to that, by a little bit in lesson 132, he says, there is no world period. This is the central lesson that this course aims to teach and not everyone is ready to accept it. Well, when you're into mysticism, let's just call ourselves mystic friends here. We're talking heart to heart, mystic friend to mystic friend, that the only purpose of time and space is to let the Holy Spirit and Jesus use it to, to accept the atonement. And that atonement is in the mind, but you can't go and approach the acceptance of the atonement until you allow your mind to start to see the meaninglessness of the images, like lesson number one in a Course in Miracles. Nothing I see means anything. That's a good way to start off a mind training program. It's a good way to end a mind training program. The world I see holds nothing that I want, because nothing I see means anything. That's lesson one and then lesson 128. The world I see holds nothing that I want. It's really just letting Jesus and the Holy Spirit show us the valuelessness of the world. Because if I still believe there's value in time and space, if I still believe there's value in the past or value in the future, then I will put value in the past and put value in the future. And I can't have a present goal of atonement, of present peace, of present joy, of present happiness. That cannot be my present goal if my mind is being told, no, no, have a future goal and make sure you involve the past.  And then you spin round and round and round, really going nowhere and thinking you're going somewhere. That's the sneaky part. So it's a dream, but if you're not aware that it's a dream, then it seems to be quite serious. You have serious concerns about the body, serious concerns about things like economics and world conditions, societal conditions, government conditions, you know, conditions of the ozone layer, concerns about solar flares or tsunamis or volcanoes erupting or typhoons, hurricanes. Whoa, it just goes on and on and on. And the only answer is the kingdom of heaven is within. There is nothing to seek for in this world. And Jesus' early teachings, as some of you know, the Gospel of Thomas, very short teaching, be passers-by. Pass by everything of this world and remember your true identity. Remember the identity that God created, the pure Christ identity, the pure spirit identity. Don't get lost into dreams. Oh my gosh, it can be a delay maneuver that can go on for millennium if the mind is attracted to and caught up in outcomes of dreams. So the first principle of the 50 Miracle Principles, that there's no order of difficulty, means that there is no hierarchy of illusions. And when you believe in a hierarchy of illusions, then you make certain images more important than other images, and then you pursue those certain images, and you try to avoid the other images. And it's not satisfying. Still not satisfied. It's like the Mick Jagger song, you know, I can't get no satisfaction, but I've tried and I've tried and I've tried and I've tried. I can't get no satisfaction. Well, thank you, Mick Jagger, for giving us the human condition in a song. Those are very good lyrics. Those are very applicable lyrics. And it applies to depression. It applies to suicidal thoughts. It applies to thoughts about the body, too fat, too skinny, not enough, not beautiful enough, not handsome enough, not intelligent enough. No, no, no. So I think I woke up with this beautiful theme of realizing the impossibility of manifesting in the context I was given by Jesus is you can accept creation, which is pure spirit, at any instant. And that's what the Holy Instant is about, to fully give yourself over to the acceptance of spirit, the acceptance of the light, not being afraid of moving toward the light, but actually being drawn toward the light. And the only way to be drawn toward the light without fear is to let go of value, importance, significance placed on the form. The mind is capable of recognizing its divinity. And of course, it's possible of releasing the belief in time and space. Yes, the past thoughts seem to come and replicate and repeat. And they seem to turn into future thoughts. And this is the stream of consciousness that is called the human condition, past thoughts, future thoughts, hypothetical thoughts.  If some of you are doing the workbook lessons on the calendar year, you know, we're in a review section here, day after day, after day after day, I am not a body, I am free, I am still as God created me. Ah, no coincidence. That's, we're on the review lesson, day after day after day, I am not a body, I am free, I am still as God created me. So there's been a lot of messages come to me and it feels like even our community work kind of, we've really got into improv. And there's actually an improv session coming up in less than an hour here, live from the Casa de Milagros. And then even improv, improv comedy skits, improv games, improv music, improv concerts, improv dances, all this is happening. This is where our community has gone to. And what's, what's the big deal with this? All this improv, online improv retreats. What's going on? Why the improv focus? Well, it's still letting the mind go into the holy instant. The holy instant is, is beyond time. It's before time was, it's the I am presence, it's the light before time was, letting yourself drift inward toward Jesus and the light, inward towards the Holy Spirit.  All things work together for good for those who love the Lord. That's in the Bible. In the Course in Miracles, it says, all things work together for good. There are no exceptions, except in the ego's judgment, meaning give it up. Let it go. Don't give a care or concern for the images. Go into your mind and accept a new way at looking at the world with Christ vision. Just pray for Christ's vision. Pray for Christ's vision. Pray to see, truly see. I am determined to see. Above all else, I am determined to see. Above all else, I am determined to see things differently. Pray for Christ's vision and then just trust that everything that's perceived through the five senses of the distortions of fragmentation and preferences and judgments and beliefs, but everything that's perceived is just for the let go. There's not some kind of goal for the world looking in a certain way. There's not a goal for outcome. You know, when I was a child, we used to play tag and we used to play ghost in the graveyard and all these childhood games, alie alie income free. And that's still the case. Jesus is saying, alie alie income free in your mind. Free your mind by deciding for God and releasing the belief in the world and go into mysticism. Follow the symbols, Christian mystics, Buddhist mystics, all kinds of esoteric mystics. You know, history is sprinkled with the mystics. Let that be the sprinkles on your ice cream cone. Instead of Jimmy's, say, I want an ice cream cone sprinkled with mystics and saints. That'll make the cone sweet. That's sweet. That is this divine sweetness. So this is the reason you can relax is because it's not that you have to control the manifestations. It's not that you have to figure out the manifestations or correct the manifestations.  I never had the power to miscreate. God created me in love and light. God created me eternal as the Christ. I never, ever, ever had the power to miscreate. Miscreation is the belief in the ego and it takes the form of time and space. It takes the form of the cosmos. God's will is for perfect happiness, we're told. And the only way we accept God's will is we have to remember God. God's will for perfect happiness is part of God and part of Christ. But if I don't remember that I'm the Christ, if I think I'm a personality, if I think I'm a person in time and space, if I'm a puppet, a character playing a part in a prearranged script that is already over and done, and now I'm mentally reviewing the images and scenarios as if they're still happening. This is coming from workbook lesson 158. If I'm still reviewing the past and pretending that it's present, pretending that it's active, pretending that it's still happening, pretending that it's still going on instead of over and done, then that's the belief in miscreation. If you were going to a movie theater and you were totally aware that it was a movie and you stayed aware all through the movie that you were just watching a movie, wow, that's like a Zen moment. That's a Christ moment of holy instant where you just are seeing the false is false and you're not affected because you are the light, you are not subject to change. This world is the belief in change. Clearly, everyone says, well, the world is always changing. Well, it's just the reflection or the manifestation seemingly reflection of the belief in change, but that's the ego. If eternal love is forever, if there is no beginning and end in eternity, then change must be a concept, a belief that was invented and that is the ego.  You were created to be spirit. You are created as spirit. You are created as light and then if you believe that you're not, then that is the belief in change. So Jesus is saying, change your mind. Change your mind about your mind. He says in A Course in Miracles, which just means accept your eternity. That's his fancy way of saying accept eternity as is, accept God as is, accept love as is, accept light as is. That's what joy is about and this world is an attempt to give meaning where there is no meaning.  Well, from a perspective of the ego, what would you expect if you believed you were a time-space creature and then you read and practice the Course in Miracles and then you start feeling less and less drawn to illusions. You start to see things as they are, so to speak, a stepping stone to see the unreality of them and the joy, the inner joy that bubbles up, that just keeps bubbling up like an effervescent drink. It's not Alka-Seltzer. It's Holy Spirit Sprite and it doesn't involve really carbonation. It's bubbles of joy, bubbles of gratitude, bubbles of happiness coming from the ultimate joy and happiness which is divine love and light. So, I thought today, that was just a prelude.  Well, I haven't even started that. So, what I thought I'd do is, I thought we could dive in together today to a section from the early part of a Course in Miracles. I'm going to go to chapter two and section four. So, if you're joining me today and you want to read along, just get your course book out now. We're going to have some fun. We're going to dive in to the deep end. We're going off the diving board on the deep end today. What does that mean? We're going to try to go and really see the ultimate lesson. And Jesus already told us that in lesson 132, there is no world, period. This is the central lesson that this Course aims to teach. Okay. If we go for that, there is no world. What that would be telling us is that, wow, God is still God. Christ is still Christ. Eternity is still eternity. And that must mean if there's no world and there's no miscreation. That just must mean that I never had the power to choose apart from God. I never had the power to manifest something that God did not create. I never had the power to make reality because God and Spirit and eternal life is reality and this world is not. And so, sometimes I like to invoke the great Spirit of Mary Baker Eddy. She gave us some good teachings. It's like I go to see the Barbie movie and Rhea Perlman says, ideas are forever and human beings are not. And Mary Baker Eddy said, there is no mind in matter. There is no life, truth, substance, or intelligence in matter. What does that mean? It means that eternal life is where causation is. God is the source and God is the creator and God is the capital C cause and Christ is an extension. The Father and Son are one. The Father will say from Christian terminology or call it whatever you want. God, Father, whatever is cause and that our identity is spiritual identity. The pure I amness that's before Abraham was I am. That pure I amness is the effect of the great creator, a great cause.  There we go. That's getting simpler.  I am as God created me. That's the meaning behind the lesson that we're doing every day. I am not a body, I am free. I am as God created me. I am spirit. I have always been spirit. I will always be spirit because God created me as spirit. Okay, divine metaphysics, divine logic and that spirit creates like itself. Even in this world, we get apples from apple trees, oranges from orange trees, with procreation, we get little baby bodies from adult bodies. We get things of a like order. We get pears from pear trees. We have peaches from peach trees.  So you're just like God. That's what Jesus was showing us, demonstrating to us by his presence, by his love, by all the miracles, by his ascension back to God, ascending, overcoming death, resurrection, resurrection, coming back to eternal life, remembering eternal life. It was always there, just remembering it. That's a wayshower to remember eternal life. That's a real good wayshower. So what we're going to talk about today, and I'll bring in some of this cause-effect stuff that I'm talking about. I'm just talking divine metaphysics today. This is just divine metaphysics. This is just Jesus, Holy Spirit are just laying it out. This is very matter of fact. The world that we perceive for five senses seems to contradict these metaphysics, but Jesus is telling us, actually no, the contradiction is in the misperception. The contradiction is in the split mind. The contradiction is to try to believe that you can serve two masters, that you can serve the Holy Spirit and the ego. You can't serve those two masters. One is a wish to remember eternal life, the Holy Spirit, and then one is a death wish, the ego. Never the twain will meet. You can't serve two masters. Jesus said 2,000 years ago, and now it's still the same every day. When people write to me about suicidal thoughts, well, there's the same thing. I can't serve two masters. I have to give my mind over to the Holy Spirit. Does that seem to involve sacrifice? Well, if I believe in the ego, it sure does seem to involve the sacrifice. It's like, wait a minute, I don't know if I'm ready to have eternal life if I'm identified with individuality, if I'm identified with personality. Why would I yield to eternal life if I still see some value in personality, if I still see some value in interpersonal, if I still see value in groups and all these concepts, the collective. There is no collective in heaven because all is one. Collective is like a group of parts. And as Shakespeare was saying, much to do about nothing. The cosmos and the people and the aliens and all the separate creatures are much to do about nothing because the parts aren't separate from the whole. It's a hologram and the hologram is hiding that we're all the same one. We're all the same spirit. So those, that's just the preamble. Okay, are we ready to start now? Did you all get your course and miracle books out? We're just going to dive into chapter two. Out of 31 chapters, we're just going to pop into the second chapter from Jesus Christ. And we're going to section four, Healing as Release from Fear. So here we go. Let's go on a ride today with Jesus. We're going on a deep dive. We're just going to go to the diving board and not hesitate. We're going to take boing, boing, boing, three bounces and then whoosh down into the deep end. And this is the deep end. Our emphasis is now on healing. The miracle is the means. The Atonement Principle is the principle. And healing is the result. So right away when Jesus says our emphasis is now on healing, he's talking about healing the belief in the split mind. He's talking about the split, the dividing point in the mind. The belief in separation needs to be released. He's talking about the belief in fragmentation needs to be released. The belief in duality needs to be released. The belief in multiplicity needs to be released because healing would be accepting the Atonement who are remembering the light, remembering the correction in our mind. So our emphasis is now on healing and it always has been and always will be. If you think there's something going on in the world that's important, well actually Jesus has a little reality check. Reality is heaven. Reality is eternal. Reality is changeless and if you believe in the changing, that's a perceptual problem. And healing first acknowledges the perceptual problem and then says, please Holy Spirit, Jesus help me. I need help. I need to release my perception of the whole world. It's never been what I thought it was and it never had real characters and real issues and real things that had to be dealt with. And yet you are guiding me in a practical way, an intuitive way to unwind my mind from the belief in the world. Unwind my mind back to God. Remember my divine mind. Remember that I am an idea in the mind of God. That's the ultimate realization to remember God. And the miracle is the means. The atonement is the principle and healing is the result. To speak of quote, a miracle of healing is to combine two orders of reality inappropriately. Healing is not a miracle. The atonement or the final miracle is a remedy and any type of healing is a result. So when Jesus is talking about healing as a result, he's basically saying, you're going toward the atonement, the divine principle. We'll call it the divine correction. And then as you approach the light, this divine correction, then the holistic perception that you see, you start to see the world not fragmented, but as a whole. You don't see any brother or sister separate from you. You don't have separate interest. You don't have separate goals. You don't have separate minds. You don't have separate thoughts. All that is corrected by the atonement principle. Healing is not a miracle. The atonement or the final miracle is a remedy and any type of healing is a result. So when you pray, you pray to the Holy Spirit to accept the Holy Spirit's correction for the belief in ego, for the belief in separation, for the belief in miscreation. You're just praying to slip with the Holy Spirit's help behind that belief in miscreation and separation and be taken into a direct experience of I amness, of I am presence. That's the joy is to allow your mind to be taken so deep, so deep, that you are taken back to the remembrance of God's love, which is prior to this world. This world was over long ago and Jesus is saying, come back, come back and watch the world with me. We've got a great view of this, called the divine view, a forgiven view of the world. We want to show you the forgiven world, the world without judgment, a world without boundaries, a world without limits. The first Matrix movie ended with Neo talking about a world without boundaries, a world without limits. I want to show you, that's the Holy Spirit speaking through Neo. I want to show you the real world where nothing is separate. So let's carry on here. The kind of error to which atonement is applied is irrelevant. All healing is essentially the release from fear. To undertake this, you cannot be fearful yourself. You do not understand healing because of your own fear. So all we're doing is we're being asked to be taken into a direct experience of fearlessness where we have no investment in the world at all. We have no investments in any outcome because kingdom of heaven is within and we can't go out. It's an illusion to think that we can leave God. It's an illusion to think we can project a world of images called cosmos, time and space. It's an illusion to believe we had the power to use our God-given power, our free will of spirit in a way of time and space. We can't manifest. If I title this video, I'm going to have to title it the realization of the impossibility of manifesting. If I have to title it, that's what I'm going to call it. You want to call it something to say, oh, David just did a live on the realization of the impossibility of manifesting because again, the light is the light. The I am presence is the I am presence and it doesn't go out. Jesus tells us that in the Course. He said, mind does not create beyond itself, meaning mind does not create matter. Divine mind, the mind of God, is not creating matter. It doesn't know what matter is. Matter doesn't matter to divine mind because there is no matter. Eternal life is quite simple actually, but the leaf in matter in five senses, five is more than one. We should get a glue right there. This must be of the ego. Why do we need five senses when we have one life with God? Did you ever think about that? One is good because oneness is reality. Multiplicity, duality, no, no, no. We don't need five senses. We don't need ethereal bodies and we don't need all kinds of different experiences in separation. We just need to remember our oneness. So again, the kind of air to which atonement is applied is irrelevant. Jesus was a great example of that. He was so much into the I am presence. He was the example of the I am presence that the lame could walk, the sick were healed, the blind could see. You know, those are nice symbols in time and space and that's why it's basically the kind of air to which atonement is applied is irrelevant. He could cast out demons seemingly, you know, walk on water. That's not a common thing for human beings to walk on water, but if you're in the atonement principle, if you're in the principle that is the correction, then with God all things are possible. There's nothing that was a limit to the Christ's mind as it was reflecting on planet earth. You know, that's what Jesus was. It was a reflection of divine mind, a reflection of oneness with God. That's that's why the dead arose, the sick were healed, symptoms disappeared. Yeah, reflections, reflections of acceptance of the atonement principle of the correction in the mind. And then he says, you do not understand healing because of your own fear. So in other words, when you release the ego, you release fear. That's lesson 48 from the workbook. There is nothing to fear. That is a fact. That is not a hypothesis. That is a fact. There is nothing to fear. That fits in with there is nothing outside of you. That is what you must ultimately learn. That fits in with there is no world apart from what you think. That fits in that there is no inner and outer. There's just unified awareness. The tippy top of consciousness is unified awareness. And that's basically just the dreamer of the dream, seeing the dream as a dream. Second paragraph, a major step in the atonement plan is to undo error at all levels. Sickness or not right mindedness is a result of level confusion, because it always entails the belief that what is a mess on one level can firstly affect another. Okay, that's that's a lot. And those first that's a that's a sentence that has the key to everything. So let's just take a moment. Let's go back. A major step in the atonement is to undo error at all levels. So we might say that the only error is the belief that you're separate from sorts or God, which is the ego belief in the ego. And then the ego projects out a world of time and space in which there seems to be many levels, societal level, community level, an interpersonal level, a psychic level inside the individual. There seems to be many, many, many levels. And basically, the atonement is the plan to undo error at all levels. So it's like once you accept who you are, which is what the correction is, you accept the correction for the belief in separation, which opens the way to remembrance of God. But sickness or not right mindedness, he's using those terms synonymously here. So he's saying, if you're in the wrong mind, if you're lined up with ego thinking and ego beliefs, that's wrong mindedness. And that's what sickness is. So sickness is is the belief in your mind. And you're listening to an imposter self, we'll call the ego as an imposter self.  And so that's what sickness is. It's fragmented perception, distorted perception. It's a belief in a split mind, impossible in eternity. But if you believe your mind is split into two parts, ego and Holy Spirit, and that's going to make a perceptual problem. A fragmented world will come from that belief that the ego has his reality, give ego reality and belief. And then you perceive a world, it seems to be real. We have referred to miracles as the means of correcting level confusion. For all mistakes must be corrected at the level on which they occur. Only the mind is capable of error. The body can act wrongly only when it is responding to missed thoughts. So let's look at that. Only the mind is capable of error. So the ego thinking is the sickness. The ego thinking, believing it's real. Holy Spirit knows it's not. But the ego thinking, if you believe it's real, then that is a sick mind. A split mind, a schizophrenic mind, a psychotic mind, is sick. And this is not to say in reality, not in reality, because in reality all is one, all is spirit. But it's saying, if you believe that you are in time and space, there's a split mind underneath that perception. If you believe that you're separate from your brother and sister, and you don't see that you're the same one in spirit, then if you believe in separation, then that is the sickness. Now the ego will project this belief onto form, and that's where we seem to have things like, you can project it onto the body. I just saw the Barbie movie, and the main stars are Barbie and Ken. There's lots of Barbies, and there's lots of Ken's in the movie. Multiple Barbies, multiple Ken's. And then they seem to have a variation of clothing and swimwear and beachwear and different houses and so on and so forth. But that's all just the projection. We can take the Barbie story and just say, that's a good synonymous representation of the human condition. Except Barbie and Ken were plastic, and the puppets that we're dealing with seem to be flesh. Well, actually, Jesus is saying it's all just miscreation, just to believe in miscreation. You know, your spirit, you're neither plastic or flesh. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, that's which is born of the spirit is spirit. And now we're being asked to accept the atonement, the correction, the holy instant. I now am born again. We're to rise up in and as the Christ. And see, we have dominion over the world. There's a Jesus on us. We have good cheer at dominion over the world. He was the wayshower. He was teaching us that we don't have to believe in the ego. You can dispel the ego or the devil through the power of eternal life. And that eternal life is there forever. God's grace cannot be snuffed out. You can't just, you can deny it from awareness, but you can't get rid of it. The grace is always there. Just waiting for acceptance. So the body can act wrongly only when it is responding to misthought. So in other words, the body is like a puppet. But the problem is the misthought in the mind. And the misthought is part of the miscreation. You have to believe that you can misuse the power of God's love and light to believe in miscreation. And then misthought flows from the belief in miscreation. The body cannot create. And the belief that it can, a fundamental error, produces all physical symptoms. What does he mean? The body cannot create. Well, that means that everything that we've believed about this world, we think that male bodies and female bodies come together and we have this thing called procreation. Jesus is saying, no, creation is eternal. Creation is spirit. Creation is unchanging. Creation is everlasting. Creation is heaven. And this is of God. Creation is spirit. The body cannot create. Okay, that means that the body cannot create procreation. The body isn't capable of creating babies. No, that's right. It's a mesmerism. It's a hypnotism. The body is not capable of creating music. The music is already there. It's in the ethers. It's the song of heaven. We can discover music, but we can't, we are not creating music as a person. So, so much for authorship.  You can think you're an artist.  You can think you're an inventor. You can think you're, you know, you can make a cherry pie, but you can't do any of it in reality because the body can't create. And the body doesn't create illness because the body is part of a projection of a split mind. And the split mind is the illness by definition. There are no problems apart from the mind. All illness is mental illness. Yeah, this is the teachings of Jesus. And of course the miracles. All illness is mental illness. So when you believe in externals, when you believe in fragmented, separate people, places, things, that itself is fragmented perception. It doesn't matter what seems to be variations and forms of the error, meaning the condition of the body or the shape of the body or the, whether it has symptoms or not, that's all projection. It's all equally unreal. A healthy body is, is, is saying like a healthy illusion. What is it? What does that even mean? A healthy illusion. If illusion means not real, how can you have a healthy illusion? And to say sick body, if the body is an illusion, how can you have a sick illusion when the meaning of illusion is not real? That would be like having a sick, not real. Oh, my body is very toned. It's well, it's in equilibrium. It's, it's, it's feeling good. It's feeling fine. It's well, well, how can you have a well illusion if the body is an illusion? How can you have a well nothing? How can you have a well, not real or a sick, not real? So let's start to take it away from the projected world and start to realize that that's part of miscreation is believing you can assign images as being sick or well. Sickness is of the mind. Sickness is believing in a split mind. That's schizophrenia. Sickness is believing that this world has reality. That's psychotic. That's a break from reality of truth. That reality is eternal life. Reality is one. That it's divine metaphysics. It's, it's, this is the healing that Jesus is pointing to healing in mind. There's a book that I seem to have come through me called Healing of Mind. It's all in there. I put it in there many years ago. No one seems to buy that book. It's so direct and simple. Nobody even knows about it. So he's talking to us about healing in mind. The body cannot create and the belief that it can, a fundamental error produces all physical symptoms. Physical illness represents a belief in magic. The whole distortion that made magic rests on the belief that there is a creative ability in matter which the mind cannot control. Okay. That's, that's what physical illness is. The belief that there's a creative ability in matter which the mind cannot control. What does that mean? There's a creative ability in matter which the mind cannot control. What is Jesus talking about? Well, creative ability in matter is if you think anything in the body is a cause, if you think there's a genetic cause in the body, that is the belief that there is a creative ability in matter. If you think that, that the organs of the body produce things in the body, hormones or that the heart is pumping blood and the heart is, is almost like you're comparing the body to a car and you've got the engine and the combustion engine is pushing the oil through the body for lubrication where the heart is pumping out the blood. If you believe there's causes and effects in the body and that certain organs and systems cause other things in the body, sounding like the medical model, no, Jesus is saying you're believing in magic. The whole distortion that made magic rests on the belief that there is a creative ability in matter which the mind cannot control. You know, there were yogis that came along and they were so in such deep meditation that the scientists at one point decades ago started studying the yogis and they were amazed because they started to realize that the mind could control things like heart rate and pulse and everything which they believed before were involuntary. But now Jesus is taking us beyond the yogis, beyond the researchers on mind-body connection and he's just saying that the belief that there is creative ability in matter which the mind cannot control, that that's the distortion, that there's no causation, that the separate mind, the belief that people have private minds and private thoughts and that those private minds can cause private thoughts like illness in the body, that's all distortion too. We're back to Mary Baker Eddie. There's no mind in matter. There's no life, truth, substance or intelligence in matter. Wow! Talk about some divine metaphysics. Jesus and Mary Baker Eddie are delivering the healing grace of God saying don't think things are as you believe they are because you believe them and then they seem to be what you believe like a self-filling prophecy. It's an ego of fulfilling prophecy. A small self. A mini-me, fulfilling prophecy. It's not true. None of it's true. This error can take two forms. It can be believed that the mind can miscreate in the body or that the body can miscreate in the mind. What does that mean? What is Jesus talking about? What does he mean? It can take two forms. The error can take two forms. It can be believed that the mind can miscreate in the body or that the body can miscreate in the mind. Well, this mind-body connection, you know, even to believe that your mind can manifest illnesses in the body is a mistake because he's not talking about the split mind or the wrong mind as having a cause effect. It can miscreate in the body. It can take this mental distortion and it can make things in the body because what? Because the wrong mind isn't a real choice. The wrong mind wasn't created by God. The wrong mind wasn't created by God or Christ or the Holy Spirit. The wrong mind is the belief that separation is real. So you might say that all healing is just a release of fear and all healing is the release in the wrong mind, releasing the wrong mind. Just give it a big oops. I thought I had the power to miscreate the wrong mind but obviously God didn't miscreate and if I'm a child of God and I have all the qualities and properties, I'm a perfect creation of God. I must not really have the power to miscreate. I must not have the power to make a wrong mind and so if I believe that the mind can miscreate in the body and I believe that my egoic mind is messing with my body, my puppet, that's not true. I have to say I've been wrong about that too. You know, how many people who get into metaphysics and they're into the new age and now they're into the spiritual journey and now they're talking about manifesting cancer or manifesting heart disease, manifesting a cold, manifesting a fever, manifesting anything. To believe that you can manifest sickness in the body is a misperception. It's a miscreation and Jesus is saying, well, healing occurs when you realize you don't have the power. God didn't give you. God didn't create you as the Christ with the ability to miscreate. Miscreation is a mistake. The ego is the belief in miscreation, the belief you can use the power of God to do something bad. Or even different from God, different from eternal life. We can leave the bad and good out of it just to believe you can make something different than God creates or different than Christ creates. You know, that's the problem. Jesus is saying, give it up. Let it go. That's what this journey is, is let it go. Let it go. Let it go. Don't hold back anymore. Let it go. Let it go. The past is in the past. Here I am spirit. Here I'll stay spirit.  It's gone. The ego can't bother me in any way. I am not a body. I am free. I am still as God created me. Those are the review lessons we're reviewing here. There we are in July and we're rolling on into the seventh month of the year and we're getting the review from the workbook. I am not a body. I am free. I am still as God created me. Every day is our review lesson. Jesus keeps repeating it over and over. It's like that part in the workbook where he keeps repeating this one lesson, my mind holds only what I think with God. Well, that's another way of saying I am as God created me. Think of it. My mind holds only what I think with God. If my mind holds only what I think with God, then I can't miscreate. God doesn't miscreate. If I'm a creation of God, why would I believe I have the power to miscreate? Honestly, I am not a body. I am free. I am still as God created me is like calling us to accept the truth of our being, the truth of our I amness. It's, it's, wow, it's letting go of everything. So what Jesus says next is he says, when it is understood that the mind, the only level of creation cannot create beyond itself, neither type of confusion need occur. So really what he's saying with this sentence is once I realize that mind cannot create beyond itself, like everything is divine mind. The mind of God creates the mind of Christ creates in spirit. And that's it. That's creation. And nothing else is creation. So once it's understood that there is no creation beyond the mind, that mind cannot create beyond itself. That's it. That's, that's the lesson of the world. There is no world. That's, that's the freedom of being in joy and knowing yourself as pure joy, pure love, because mind cannot create beyond itself. You cannot create sickness because God didn't create sickness. And again, like creates like light.  God creates Christ is eternal life. And Christ has creations, which also are spirit and their eternal life.  No, not happening. Couldn't ever happen. Isn't part of the will of God. Isn't part of spirit. It's a projection. It's an illusion. It's an error. But errors have already been corrected. That's why we pray to remember the correction. We pray to remember the atonement. So, you know, that you could sing that in the morning, make a mantra when you get up and you brush your teeth and you're in the shower. You seem to go for a shower. Just remember, oh, there's two errors that I had believed in. I'm letting go of those today as you're scrubbing in the shower. The belief that the mind can miscreate in the body or that the body can miscreate in the mind. The mind cannot miscreate because only spirit has the power to create. Spirit doesn't have the power to miscreate. Period. Spirit was not given the power to miscreate. Christ was not given the power to miscreate. And if I'm the Christ, I don't have that power. I can't manifest. I don't have to try to break down manifesting and figure it out. I cannot manifest. I am spirit. I cannot manifest. So, obviously, the mind cannot miscreate in the body or that the body can miscreate in the mind. We can't say that genetics have anything to do with causing anything because there is no causation in the body. The body cannot create. The body cannot miscreate in the mind. You can't say I'm starving myself to death because starvation of the body does not lead to death. The ego is the death wish and the ego is in the mind. You have to release it in the mind. But in the end, we have to let go of the belief that food is causative, that air and oxygen is causative. We have to let go of the belief that the warmth of the sun is causative or that heat is causative or that coolness, coolness is causative. Like, I'm burning up.  I'm going to freeze to death. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. The body cannot miscreate in the mind. Cold, hot, no creation. There is no creation in the body. Again, spirit is creation. Spirit is creative and we have to give up that belief. Okay, paragraph three. Only the mind can create because spirit has already been created and the body is a learning device for the mind. Learning devices are not lessons in themselves. Their purpose is merely to facilitate learning. The worst of faulty use of a learning device can do is fail to facilitate learning. It has no power in itself to introduce actual learning errors. So think of the body as like a puppet, like Pinocchio, and it's a learning device. Yes, think of your smart phone as a learning device. Think of books as part of a learning device, a bunch of symbols. Think of food as learning devices. It's all just symbols for the mind to let go of the belief in miscreation. That's really all this world is. It's just symbols to let go of the belief in miscreation. If God created you as spirit, then you really don't have the power to miscreate. You really don't have to power to fall from grace. You really don't have the power to be an error.  You're the Christ created in the beautiful pure I am presence of God's love and God's grace and you don't really have the power to miscreate. So he's basically saying, let the body off the hook. The body is not the problem. The body is not the problem. The body is just a learning device to teach you that your mind can't miscreate. That you never had the power to miscreate. That's what Dorothy was told at the end by Glenda the Goodwitch. You always had the power to go home, meaning remember God, and you were just lost in the belief in miscreation because we could put some good words in Glenda's mouth. Dorothy, you always had the power to remember God. You never had the power to miscreate or get lost in time and space. Okay, we're talking about the body. It has no power in itself to introduce actual learning errors. So that means that nothing you've ever done in the body behaviorally has been wrong or right because the body can't create, create or miscreate we learned. So let's take the body off the hook. The body never did anything wrong or right. The body, if properly understood, shares the invulnerability of the atonement to two edge application. This is not because the body is a miracle, but because it is not inherently open to misinterpretation. The body is merely part of your experience in the physical world. Its abilities can be and frequently are over-evaluated. Let's go to that line. The body is merely part of your experience in the physical world. Okay, the body is like all the images in the world. No more important or less important. It's just an image. It's part of your experience. It's part of the belief in separation. It's not an important piece. It's just a piece. Back to the blue bottle cap, you know, it's a piece. It's not, it's not our identity. There's a lot of blue in this scene. Blue shirts, blue pillows, blue bottle, blue. Oh my gosh, there's a blue painting. Jesus is telling us, let go of the blues. You don't have to sing the blues. You're an eternal being created by God. You can be in joy. Don't get blue about anything. Don't get sad. So its abilities can be and frequently are over-evaluated. The intelligence of the body is over-evaluated. Bodies don't have intelligence. Divine intelligence, it's more like what Jesus and Mary Baker Eddie are talking about. It's the power of the mind, the power of God, the power of spirit, the power of divinity. Divine intelligence. Yeah, you want to talk intelligence. Why don't you talk divine intelligence? That's what Jesus is giving us through his course in miracles. He's kind of explaining the scriptures. That's what Mary Baker Eddie did, you know, science and health with key to the scriptures. That was her main text that she taught from. Yeah, that's the key to the scriptures. Finally, let's have a good high interpretation of the scriptures. That's what science and health with key to the scriptures is. That's actually what a course in miracles is. It's just a beautiful interpretation of the gospels. And the whole Bible really is totally brought into light, brought into true divinity, true meaning. So, when we get to that line, its abilities can be frequently and are over-evaluated. Any physical abilities you think you have, athletic abilities, no. Intelligence, no. Beauty, no. No. Athleticism, no. Procreation abilities. A sexual creator, no. No. No. No abilities. Its abilities can be and frequently are over-evaluated. Well, that's deep. That's letting go of the values of the world. If the body doesn't have anything of substance and it's always being over-evaluated as a learning device, then Jesus is saying, it's just a speck of dust, like all the specks of dust. So, why don't you give them over to the Holy Spirit? Jesus is saying, let me use all the parts, all the specks of dust. And I'll teach you that the specks of dust aren't real. And God is real. Spirit is real. That's a good interpretation. That's a good use of the specks of dust. The term unworthy in quotes here implies only, okay, let's go back to that. After the part about its abilities can be frequently, can be and frequently are over-evaluated, however, it is almost impossible to deny its existence in this world. So, we're not asked to deny the body. We're just asked to have it be reinterpreted by the Holy Spirit as a learning device, remember, as a communication device. Those who do so are engaging in a particularly unworthy form of denial. So, we're not trying to say, okay, I'm not here and you're not here and we're not having this conversation. We're not trying to deny what the projection is showing us. We're just asking to be shown a new way of looking at this projected world. Show us your way, Holy Spirit. Show us a unified perception instead of a fragmented perception. That's all we're saying. We're not trying to deny the existence of form. We're just saying show us a unified perspective of form. Show us unified consciousness. Show us unified awareness. Show us a happy dream. Show us a forgiven world. Show us a world without judgment. Is it that important? That's what we're saying. We're not trying to deny that we're perceiving. We're just saying show us a unified perception. The term unworthy in quotes here implies only that it is not necessary to protect the mind by denying the unmindful. You don't have to protect your mind by denying the fragmentation. You just have to ask that the fragmentation be taken away in awareness. Holy Spirit, take this from me. Show me a unified world. Show me a happy dream. Show me a world without judgment. Is what he's saying. You don't have to deny the unmindful, which is the error. He says if one denies this unfortunate aspect of the mind's power, one is also denying the power itself. Don't try to dismiss the world without forgiving it. What that means is don't try to dismiss anything of form until you've given all the form to the Holy Spirit to show you a higher perspective. Don't skip over forgiveness. Don't skip over atonement. Don't get caught into denying the body. I'm not here. You're not here. We're not having this conversation. I'm not saying that. I'm saying let's join and pray for the Holy Spirit's perspective and then show us the body in a different light. Show us the body in a different perspective. Show us. Show me that I've been mistaken about the body. It's not what I thought it was. But obviously, I would rather see the divine unified perception of the world than a fragmented perception of the ego. I don't want to look at the world through a death wish filter. I want to look at through your perspective, Holy Spirit. All material means that you accept as remedies for bodily ills are restatements of magic principles. In other words, whatever you believe is curing the body or curing the bodily ills or removing symptoms, those are restatements of magical principles. You have to believe the body's sick before you can believe it's well. You have to believe that the body can change from being a sick body to a well body before you can believe in cures. There's a beautiful workbook lesson that says only salvation can be said to cure. If salvation is opening to remember God, remember eternal life, then that makes sense. Only salvation can be said to cure. That means that all the seeming cures of bodies that ever were or ever will be in the past or the future, those aren't really the cures. Enlightenment is important. Self-realization is important. Salvation is important. Salvation means saved. Maybe I'm saved from the devil, the belief in the devil. Maybe I'm saved from the belief in ego. Maybe I'm saved from the belief in linear time. Maybe the atonement is opening me to remember God's eternal love, and I'm not going to put my attention, my focus on the past or the future. Maybe the holy instant, this present moment, contains everything. Maybe Jesus is right when he says the holy instant, the present moment is the closest approximation of eternity that this world offers. Doesn't that sound good? That sounds like a pretty strong statement from the Christ. Yeah, the present moment is the closest approximation to eternity. Yeah, that's what we're going for. That's what we're going for, just accepting the present. That's what all the mystics and saints have always told us, except the present moment. That's what all of them, that's how we have Eckhart Tolle writing the book, The Power of Now. Even in this modern day times, The Power of Now is a good phrase. If you were going to shower again, you're scrubbing in the shower, The Power of Now, The Power of Now. I am present. I am fully present with God's love. I am one with God now. Powerful. That's the power of now. That's actually a good use of the mind. That's a very strong prayer to accept the correction that I open to the power of now and I accept the power of now. The ego has no power over me because of the power of now. The power of now is the power of release, release of belief and separation. This is the first step in believing that the body makes its own illness. It is a second misstep to try to heal it through non-creative agents. Okay, non-creative agents means anything of time and space.  That's it. They're just images. They're part of a fiction. It's a fantasy. It's a fairy tale and we don't have to put causation into the fairy tale to look for miracle cures for mistaken sicknesses. There are no miracle cures in form and there are no sicknesses in form because it's all in the mind. So when we go into Atonement, we go into the joy, the love, the light, that is going into the correction. And basically it is a second misstep to try to heal it through non-creative agents. It does not follow, however, that the use of such agents for corrective purposes is evil. Sometimes the illness has a sufficiently strong hole over the mind to render a person temporarily inaccessible to the Atonement. In this case, it may be wise to utilize a compromise approach to mind and body in which something from the outside, the body, the world, the world of images, is temporarily given healing belief, temporarily given healing belief. You see, Jesus is so gentle, so kind and he's like, well, I know that you can get stuck in this belief in separation but how about if you gave just for a moment a temporary healing belief to one of these agents, one of these symbols, what if you just follow the breadcrumbs of the Holy Spirit and Jesus are giving to the mind and saying, here, follow this breadcrumbs and then the next one, the next one, temporarily giving healing belief to some of these things that involve a mind-body approach in which something from the outside is temporarily given healing belief. This is because the last thing that can help the non-right minded or the sick is an increase in fear. They are already in a fear weakened state. If they are prematurely exposed to a miracle, they may be precipitated into panic. This is likely to occur when upside down perception has induced the belief that miracles are frightening. What does he mean if they are prematurely exposed to a miracle? What does that mean prematurely exposed? Miracles never operate from fear. If you believe you're a self-concept, if you're so attached to the belief in the body and you're so much frightened by the belief of the power of the mind or the power of the light or God, if you're so afraid and so attached to the body, to the personal identity, to the personal self-concept and the whole construct, if you're so attached to the error, the truth is not coming in like a grenade. The truth is not sent in on a search and destroy message, a commission. The truth will not be aggressive with the mind that believes in the error. The truth spirit has to wait on when you voluntarily say, show me the way. Show me that I'm more than a body. Show me that I'm more than a person. Show me that I'm light. Show me I'm spirit. You have to want to be shown your identity. Spirit's not going to try to force you to remember the truth. The spirit is never aggressive. The spirit is never invasive. The spirit is gentle and the spirit is there patiently waiting for willingness for the little nod like show me the way. Show me the love. Show me the light. So if they are prematurely exposed to a miracle, they may be precipitated into panic. You know, if you start to realize that when you seem to experience a symptom, the wrong mind, it was a wrong-minded decision to choose a specific symptom. But the reason, so-called reason, you would choose a symptom is because you must be afraid of what's beyond the world. You must be afraid of letting go of the body, of the personality, of letting go of everything. Mysticism is the readiness and the willingness to let it all go.  Mysticism is taking your Truman Show moment. Good afternoon, good evening, and good night with a bow in gratitude. Thank you. Thank you, world. I no longer need you. I'm actually remembering the light. I'm remembering my true identity. Thank you. You served well. Thank you, Holy Spirit. Really, you use those symbols and images. You really use those breadcrumbs really well. You really use those symbols well. They were magical symbols. All right.  I've done a great, I've done a great program and on the high beam, on the beam, I've done a great beam program, and then I do my dismount and then pop my feet land on the ground, and then what's the score? Ten. Ten. Ten. Perfect. Ten. Ten. Ten. Ten. That's the Holy Spirit going. Very good. Great program. Great dismount. Good afternoon, good evening, and good night. That's what this is about. This isn't about prolonging the error. This isn't about prolonging the magical symbols. It's about letting the Holy Spirit use the magical symbols, whatever they are, anything in form, to unwind the mind from the belief in form as a reality. That's psychosis. Believing in form is real. It's psychosis. It's schizophrenic and it's psychosis. This is likely to occur when upside down perception has induced the belief that miracles are frightening. You know, why is the sleeping mind spooked by the idea of ghosts? Because ghosts seem to be these characters that are not real but they still appear. That's spooky to the ego. It likes solid flesh. It's not interested in ghosts. Why are certain mystical experiences spooky to the ego? If you have a revelatory experience and you have a direct contact of direct light, you have a direct experience of the end of the light of God, that's spooky to the ego because it's showing that the world's not real and the light is real. Mystical experiences are spooky. Sometimes people take psychedelics and it can be, you know, a very ecstatic, beautiful experience but sometimes with some psychedelics, you know, it's, there's dark components. You're just coming in contact with the unconscious mind. Unconscious, unwatched mind, darkness. Darkness is never happy but if we let the Holy Spirit bring it up and dissolve it, then it'll show us that there is no darkness. That the only light is real, only love is real with the Carol King song. Only love is real. Everything else illusion. The way we connive, it's staying alive, tracing a line till we can define the thing that allows us to feel. Only love is real. Only love is real. There you go. You got another song to add to your playlist, Carol King. Only love is real. This is the kind of music I've been listening to for decades. Okay, let's roll on. Beyond the upside down perception of ego and let's look at the atonement. Paragraph five. The value of the atonement does not lie in the manner in which it is expressed. In fact, if it is used truly, it will inevitably be expressed in whatever way is most helpful to the receiver. Miracles are involuntary. You just say yes to being a miracle worker and then that's it.  You're just willing to let it pass through, to let the mind be used and the whole world be used by the Holy Spirit and Jesus. Okay. In fact, if it is used truly, it will inevitably be expressed in whatever way is most helpful to the receiver. This means that a miracle to attain its full efficacy must be expressed in a language that the recipient can understand without fear. This does not necessarily mean that this is the highest level of communication of which he is capable. It does mean, however, that it is the highest level of communication of which he is capable. Now, the whole aim of the miracle is to raise the level of communication, not to lower it by increasing fear. This is what it means to let yourself be done through. When you get inspired by the Holy Spirit and Jesus, you do smile more frequently. You exhibit more joy. You exhibit happiness. You exhibit being content. You exhibit being carefree. You exhibit being free, a free mind. You exhibit and extend the grace of God, and it's all involuntary. That's why we're doing online improv retreats. That's why we're sharing all this beautiful love and light and joy is because it's all involuntary. Yeah, I think our improv is going on now. And this is the beautiful thing is because the improv is letting go of control of the form and your opening to being used by the spirit in true communication. That's a step. Improv comedy skits, improv music concerts and music expressions, improv games. Improv is letting go. Letting go of thinking you're in control of the body and letting the Holy Spirit pull the puppet strings. Letting the Holy Spirit, if we're going to use the puppet analogy, Jesus used to cross bar above to move the puppet, to speak through the puppet, to shine through the puppet, to share through the puppet. That's what the miracle does. And it helps you disidentify from the puppet because you, of course, you start to merge with what's behind the miracle, which is the light. Miracles come from the light in the mind. Miracles come from the right mind. They're inspired. They're joyful. They're gleeful. And then you more identify with the right mind until you start to realize that the right mind is the solution. And the wrong mind was the problem. And then we're full circle to what we started with the beginning. Do I want the problem or do I want the answer? That's really what it comes down to in this moment. Do I want the problem or do I want the answer? Do I want the problem of ego which fragments into lots of complexity and lots of false issues and false concerns and false cares? Or do I want the answer which is opening my mind to guidance, intuition, and ultimately to the light and the grace of God?  In Course of Miracles terms, that's it. Do I want the problem of ego, the belief in separation, or do I want the answer of this divine grace that shows me that I can't judge? I never could judge. I never was created to judge. I was created as spirit and spirit is eternal and spirit has no judgment. And I can just give up the judgments because I never had it in the first place. How do you stop a runaway freight train? You know, you see there is no freight train. You don't try to stop the unreal. You just see it. See the impossibility. Only the Holy Spirit can show the impossibility of the freight train. There is no runaway freight train. Yeah. That's good. That's good. Don't try to correct impossibility. Just see the impossible as impossible. Align with God. Align with the light. Align with oneself. And don't ever believe you need anything else. That's it. Do I want the problem or do I want the answer? Yeah. Let's be honest. I want the answer. I want the answer. Do I have any needs? Admit it. Say I need God. I need to remember God. It's not like there's physical, emotional needs and needs in form. It's like my mind needs to remember God. I need to pray to remember God. I need to pray Jesus. Help me remember God as you symbolized to me that it's only possible. It's inevitable. So thank you. I think that was our burst of love and light and joy to remember the truth, remember the love, remember the happiness and realize that that is God's will. And that we're just remembering God's will for us. Perfect happiness when we come back, back, back in the mind.  There we go. Back into the light. Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you.
