Would we will ourselves to wake from the dream? Yes! To waken from the dream is our deepest desire, whether or not we realize it. We constantly choose a world of dreams that seems to bring us guilt, grudges, blame and fear. What does this accomplish? What does this bring to our relationships? It makes our relationships “special”, meaning that we use our relationships to perpetuate the idea of separation – the unhappy dream. When I have trouble understanding that the world is an illusion, I think of the world I see as temporal – or temporary. I think of the illusory world as a world that will not last. A world that I will transform when I allow my perception of the world to change. And then I choose that change in how I perceive the world to be guided by Spirit rather than my egoic thought system. I can choose to be guided by Spirit to the happy dream – a healing of the dream.
Your special relationship will be a means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed through your holy relationship. It will be a happy dream, and one which you will share with all who come within your sight. Through it, the blessing the Holy Spirit has laid upon it will be extended. Think not that Spirit has forgotten anyone in the purpose It has given you. And think not that Spirit has forgotten you to whom It gave the gift. Spirit uses everyone who calls on Spirit as means for the salvation of everyone. And Spirit will waken everyone through you who offered your relationship to Spirit. If you but recognized Spirit’s gratitude! Or mine through Spirit’s! For we are joined as in one purpose, being of one mind with Spirit. T-18.II.7:1-9
The divine purpose of our relationships is to demonstrate Oneness – Unity – in this world. Our divine nature is Oneness. Our divine nature is holiness in Oneness. There is no other real nature attributable to who we really are. Only by believing we are something less can we block our awareness of our divinity. Let not the waking dream close your eyes to the truth about you and all the world. Allow Spirit to guide your waking dreams from unhappy to happy. Allow Spirit to guide your sight with holy sight. All that we are seeking is within us. Spirit dwells within us as our Higher Holy Spirit Self. Trust your inner guidance. Trust the peace and love as it rises within you. What do you really want – the unhappy dream or the happy dream?
Yet Heaven is sure. This is no dream. Its coming means that you have chosen truth, and it has come because you have been willing to let your special relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world; the world of happy dreams, from which awaking is so easy and so natural. For as your sleeping and your waking dreams represent the same wishes in your mind, so do the real world and the truth of Heaven join in the Will of the One. The dream of waking is easily transferred to its reality. For this dream reflects your will joined with the Will of the One. And what this Will would have accomplished has never not been done. T-18.II.9:1-8
Be willing to understand the basis of the dream. Have faith that Spirit will guide you in that understanding. As we waken, little by little, we will find ourselves at Heaven’s threshold. We need do no more than step across Heaven’s threshold. And, for a time, we will have a foot in each world, seeing ourselves and our sisters and brothers free of all limitations and spreading the happy dream throughout the world. We will bring the awareness of our Oneness – our Unity – to this temporal world. Wake up and dream!
