The journey we undertake in this temporal world is the exchange of darkness for light, ignorance for understanding. We will all make this exchange, yet it is our choice when to allow it to take place. First we must decide to let go of our attachment to darkness and ignorance. Once we surrender that attachment the shift can take place in our minds. We find the world we seem to be surrounded by frightening. So we shrink away from it to further darkness. Yet it is only the hidden that can terrify, not for what it is – for it is nothing – but for its hiddenness. What is hidden cannot be understood for there is nothing in it to be understood. Only what is real can be understood. When we allow light to shine in our mind, darkness fades away and reveals that there was nothing hidden at all. What we hide cannot be shared, for by hiding it we keep it separate. Therefore, we remain apart from light because we have placed value in hiding. By releasing our attachment to darkness we allow light to shine within our minds and love to radiate from us. What is concealed cannot be loved, so it must be feared.
The quiet light in which the Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness, in which nothing is hidden and therefore nothing is fearful. Attack will always yield to love if it is brought to love, not hidden from it. There is no darkness that the light of love will not dispel, unless it is concealed from love’s beneficence. What is kept apart from love cannot share its healing power, because it has been separated off and kept in darkness. The sentinels of darkness watch over it carefully, and you who made these guardians of illusion out of nothing are now afraid of them. T-14.VI.2.1-5
Do we give our power to these imagined “sentinels of safety?” They guard nothing for they are imagined as are the obscure ideas we think they guard us from. Let them go. What appeared fearful will be so no longer. Without our attachment to darkness, the light of love shines freely in our minds. All else must fade away.
The light of guiltlessness shines guilt away because, when they are brought together, the truth of one must make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and guiltlessness apart, for your belief that you can have them both is meaningless. All you have done by keeping them apart is lose their meaning by confusing them with each other. And so you do not realize that only one means anything. The other is wholly without sense of any kind. T-14.VI.4.2-6
Turn to the quiet light within you where Spirit dwells. It has always been within you waiting for you to allow it to rise to your awareness. The light of wholeness and love within you is rooted in understanding. It holds the remembrance of who you really are. It knows that your light and love have no limits and are eternal. It knows you are complete and cannot be harmed. The Spirit within that knows your wholeness will guide you in releasing your attachment to darkness and ignorance, exchanging them for light and understanding already present in your mind. Awaken to the light of Oneness and Communication will fill your mind. Communication will be.
