We are often at cross purposes with ourselves. This seems impossible and one might even think it insane, but we do engage in insanity when we lose sight of who we really are and identify with the idea of separation. The Course has taught us we are holy and divine as we are created. We are whole and complete. We are peace and love embodied in this world. Yet our actions and beliefs contradict who we really are. We already have everything we need, yet we believe we lack. We listen to our egoic thought system only because it is louder and supports our misconception of who we are. We have the capacity to Reason correctly. We have the capacity to see with the eyes of our One Mind rather than the body’s eyes. What will it take for us to make the shift to rely on the holy guidance within us?
Your sight was given you, along with everything that you can understand. You will perceive no difficulty in understanding what this vision tells you, for everyone sees only what they think they are. And what your sight would show you, you will understand because it is the truth. Only your vision can convey to you what you can see. It reaches you directly, without a need to be interpreted to you. What needs interpretation must be alien. Nor will it ever be made understandable by an interpreter you cannot understand. T-22.I.5:1-7
We have become so attached to the ways we have always seen the world in this lifetime that we have blinded ourselves to reason and reality. We have blocked our awareness of the free flow of communication between ourselves and Source and each other. Communication still flows freely, but we have ignored it for so long we have become impervious to it. This free flow of communication is a part of our holy relationships with each other. The natural state of our relationships is holy – nothing else. Anything less than holiness is made up, manufactured by the distorted beliefs of our egoic thought system that is invested in perpetuation separation.
It’s time to let go of the desire for separateness. It does not serve us well. Joining ourselves in Oneness is the return to the awareness of our true being. True lasting joy and peace are there in the awareness of Oneness. We start the return journey to our awareness of this bliss with a simple willingness to be guided there by the reason and knowledge within us. Spirit within us is ready and waiting to guide us there. We will make mistakes along the way, but the reality of who we really are and the willingness to return to that awareness will always bring us back to focus on the reality of who we are. Take a moment to forgive yourself. There’s no need to berate or punish yourself for past mistakes. They are over. They are done and in the past. They have no place in the present where we are now. Let the past be past and step into the awareness of the present moment where we are as we are and always have been. Allow your relationships to be transformed into the holy relationships they are. The world will be transformed as we allow our relationships to be transformed. We will begin to see a new understanding in our restored awareness. Choose your reawakening and know each other as you really are.
