We are ultimately whole and complete, divine in nature and inseparable from Oneness. This cannot be changed. Nothing we think or believe can change the reality of our divine nature. Our world is Heaven, whole and complete as we are. We have chosen another thought. We have chosen to believe that we can fence off a tiny little portion of our world and make it self-sustaining, independent of any other aspect of creation. We believe we can be completely separate from all others, not dependent and not responsible for any other aspect of creation we choose to wall out. Though we think and believe this gives us complete control in our lives, it actually limits us severely and denies much of who we really are. It, in fact, denies us of any meaningful happiness or peace as we have walled off much of our true identity from ourselves.
It is the tiny part of yourself, the little thought that seems split off and separate, the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in the One’s keeping, and needs no guide. This is the little part you think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the Holy Spirit remove it from the withered realm in which you set it off, surrounded by darkness, guarded by attack and reinforced by hate. Within its barricades is still a tiny segment of your true Self, complete and holy, serene and unaware of what you think surrounds it. T-18.IX.1:3-4, 6-10
We have completely identified ourselves with this walled off world we seek to protect from the world “out there.” This world we walled off is symbolized as our body. Just beneath this little world lies the circle of fear and guilt that appears to be the foundation of our whole world. The world appears to threaten us at every turn. This world’s shadow rises in our mind, casting all we perceive into darkness that may seem impenetrable so often. Its darkness is designed by our belief in this walled-off world to keep the light of our true Self hidden from our awareness. The body cannot see this, for the body rose from this belief for its protection, which depends on keeping our true Self hidden. The body’s eyes will never look on it. Yet they will see what it dictates.
The body will remain guilt’s messenger, and will act as it directs as long as you believe that guilt is real. For the reality of guilt is the illusion that seems to make it heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a real foundation for the ego’s thought system. Its thinness and transparency are not apparent until you see the light behind it. And then you see it as a fragile veil before the light. T-18.IX.5:1-4
This little world does not represent reality. Its purpose is to hide Heaven from us while we are smack dab in the middle of it. Is this not an illusion? We are dwelling in Heaven and Oneness, perfect love and perfect peace and we do not see it where it is all around us. Let’s come together and begin looking at the other world that is our real world. Look to the light within you behind the thin veil that surrounds your little world. Let’s let go of our belief in the little world we walled off and let the awareness of Heaven and Oneness that surrounds us rise in our minds. This is our home. This is our true Identity.
