The Disappearance of the Universe

[astrogrrl777]

I thought I'd share a little of my personal spiritual path since everyone else does too. This is an exerpt from a book called The Disappearance of the Universe by Gary Renard, which will take you to another path....Thought I'd press the fast-forward button for some of you who are on the spiritual buffet line.


The Course teaches that your sole responsibility is to accept the Atonement for yourself. (ACIM: T25-26) You’ve already accelerated a process where you forgive others instead of judging them. Having completed the Workbook, you finally understand that whenever you condemn another, your salvation is off to a flying stop. You’ve also had more experiences that the world is a dream, nothing but illusion.
GARY: We had a guest at our study group meeting a couple of weeks ago when somebody mentioned something about the world being an illusion, and this guy was really pissed. He said, “What’s the point?” I knew the answer was that you have to understand the world’s a dream in order to comprehend forgiveness and salvation, but I didn’t explain it very well.
PURSAH: Yes. We said earlier it’s not enough to say the world is an illusion. The point is that you have to learn how to forgive in order to get home. Understanding the metaphysics of the Course is required in order to understand forgiveness, but it may be helpful to some people if you stress forgiveness first, then bring in the dreamlike nature of the world and other features of the truth gradually.
That’s just the opposite of what we did with you, but there’s a big difference between a book like the one that’s going to result from our visits and the kind of personal interactions you’ll have with most people. You’re not going to teach anybody the whole Course. That means people will only stay with it if they hear something that rings true for them, or piques their interest. Don’t try to control that. Just be yourself and let the Holy Spirit work with people. Yes, ask for guidance and share your experience if you want, but don’t try to change the world or anyone in it. Just forgive — silently. Don’t go up to people and say, “I’m forgiving you now, you know.” Which brings us back to the subject at hand. Tell me something you remember from the Workbook; anything that comes to mind — quickly.
GARY: O.K. This is one of my favorites.

I am not a body. I am free.
For I am still as God created me. (ACIM: W386)

PURSAH: Good one. That’s from the Workbook, which also says,

...The ego holds the body dear because it dwells in it, and lives united with the home that it has made. It is a part of the illusion that has sheltered it from being found illusory itself. (ACIM: W382)

Now, if you thought you were a body before you had the Course, then you can be certain other people definitely think they are bodies. An important component of your forgiveness is that you want to teach people, silently, that they are not bodies. That’s how your mind learns for certain that you are not a body. As the Course puts it,

As you teach so shall you learn. (ACIM: T82)

As we go along, try to remember that. As we’ve said, when you forgive others, it’s really you yourself who is being forgiven....
