My holiness envelops everything I see.
* This is a part of reality because God IS.
1. Today’s idea extends the idea for yesterday from the perceiver to the perceived. ²You are holy because your mind is part of God’s.
* Exactly.
³And because you are holy, your sight must be holy as well.
* I am hearing this as “wholly” in the sense that I want to see wholeness in what I see. I want to see myself as a part of all that is rather than a separate entity. This information is coming into my heart and mind in such a way that I am not sure that I can express it and yet…
* This weekend I met some family of my companion, and I cannot help but feel the pull to mingle and assist others where I am able. In as much as my resources and energies allow that is. We all face life in morality at this time with aging and illness, or creature comforts that we supply one to another because we are NOT “entities unto ourselves, but symbiotic beings who have need of one another, just as God and His Son ~ as a Whole ~ have NEED directly of One Another because God deemed it so at the Son’s Creation.
* That is a HUGE concept to grasp ahold of if one is being newly exposed to it so give it time to sink in and you will see the truth of the concepts one within the other.
* No, gurus, that includes you, debi. We are NOT meant to separate and be alone and self-contained. And this does NOT bring us into the Presence of God, it brings us to NOTHINGNESS as many meditators have come to understand over time. Rather, those around us represent the VERY GOD AMONG US that we want, need to, and must embrace as we would have ourselves embraced by a LOVER. Not in a “sexual sense” but in a spiritual/Loving/universal/wholeness/singularity/solidarity kind of way.
* Now, there may be a time when a “seeming, though obviously false” separation needs to occur so that you are “free” to exist in peace and without chaos however YOUR HEART AND MIND MUST NOT LEAVE THE OTHER BUT BE DRAWN OUT IN PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION FOR THE BLESSINGS OF THE UNDERSTANDING OF WHOLENESS AND TRUTH, IE. GOD TO DAWN UPON THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF THEM AS PART OF THE WHOLE THAT IS. THAT IS THE SON OF GOD. (THIS NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED TO MOTHER EARTH AS A WHOLE, AS WELL.)
⁴“Sinless” means without sin. ⁵You cannot be without sin a little. ⁶You are sinless or not. ⁷If your mind is part of God’s you must be sinless, or a part of His Mind would be sinful. ⁸Your sight is related to His Holiness, not to your ego, and therefore not to your body.
* Think of this in terms of ONENESS and WHOLENESS. ~ WHY does the idea of communism not work? Because THIS principle is NOT UNDERSTOOD. If it was the idea of “the Whole providing for the individuals within the Whole” would not be so distasteful or promoting of apathy and individual lethargy.
* From Bing definitions: What does the name lethargy mean?
Lethargy is defined as a state of sluggishness, inactivity, and apathy. Other words are also associated with lethargy, such as listless, tiredness, lack of energy, continued sleepiness, and others.
* This one applies even better to this conversation:
What is the meaning of lethargy?
What is the definition of lethargy? It is an attitude, or state of laziness, sluggerdness, tardiness. You feel very weak, as if you have no energy and no passion in your christian walk. Sometimes we would describe such person as feeling dry, worn out, burnt out or weary.”
* And NO, I am not promoting communism. I am suggesting God would have us develop a whole new system of existence BASED on the ACCEPTANCE of HIS EXISTENCE within and throughout ALL THAT IS Guided by the Holy Spirit which represents Him (Including all of us at our highest level.) to us in the flesh.
2. Four three-to-five-minute practice periods are required for today. ²Try to distribute them fairly evenly, and make the shorter applications frequently, to protect your protection throughout the day. ³The longer practice periods should take this form:
3. First, close your eyes and repeat the idea for today several times, slowly. ²Then open your eyes and look quite slowly about you, applying the idea specifically to whatever you note in your casual survey. ³Say, for example:
⁴My holiness envelops that rug.
⁵My holiness envelops that wall.
⁶My holiness envelops these fingers.
⁷My holiness envelops that chair.
⁸My holiness envelops that body.
⁹My holiness envelops this pen.
¹⁰Several times during these practice periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. ¹¹Then open your eyes, and continue as before.
4. For the shorter exercise periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea; look about you as you repeat it again; and conclude with one more repetition with your eyes closed. ²All applications should, of course, be made quite slowly, as effortlessly and unhurriedly as possible.
* My holiness/God’s Presence/Our Oneness envelops ~ it ALL.
(ACIM, W-36.1:1–4:2)
Till next time, God bless, debi.
