My thoughts(*) on the Urtext of A Course in Miracles, pg. 466. Who Makes YOUR World?

Caution: F-bomb planted in an appropriate place where triggers are possible.

Third Scribal Translation, October 12, 1967 (*It came to Helen and she recorded it in her special shorthand. Then it went through Helen’s mind again and was typed by William Thetford.

To the extent to which you value guilt, to that extent will you perceive a world in which attack is justified. To the extent to which you recognize that guilt is meaningless, to that extent will you perceive attack cannot BE justified. This is in strict accord with

vision’s FUNDAMENTAL law: You see what you believe is there, and you believe it there because you WANT it there. Perception HAS no other law than this. The rest but stems from this, to hold it up and offer it support. This is perception’s form, adapted to this world, of God’s more basic law; that Love creates Itself, and nothing BUT Itself.

* The Complete Forgiveness of the Original Error that the Atonement offers us allows us to understand that NO attack can be JUSTIFIED because NOTHING could exist that is outside of the Perfection that is God.

God’s laws do not obtain directly to a world perception rules, for such a world could not have been created by the Mind to which perception has no meaning. (*In other words, there is ONLY ONE Reality and Meaning and that is God’s.) Yet are His laws reflected everywhere. NOT that the world where this reflection is, is real at all. ONLY because His Son BELIEVES it is, and from His Son’s belief He COULD not let Himself be separate entirely. He could not enter His Son’s insanity with him, but He could be sure His sanity went there WITH him, so he could not be lost forever in the madness of his wish.

* God’s SANITY IS WITH US and ACCESSIBLE IN the HOLY SPIRIT.

Perception rests on choosing; knowledge does not. Knowledge has but one law BECAUSE it has but One Creator. But this world has two who made it, and they do NOT see it as the same. To each it has a DIFFERENT purpose, and to each it is a perfect means to serve the goal for which it is perceived. For specialness it is the perfect frame to set it off; the perfect battleground to wage its wars, the perfect shelter for the illusions which it would make real. Not one but it upholds in its perception; not one but can be fully justified.

* I find it interesting that the word ‘specialness’ is used where the meaning is ‘sinfulness.’ Seriously, consider the word sinfulness whenever you see specialness in the Course, and you will see what I mean. Guilt caused by the belief in separation created the idea that sinfulness was possible.

* This has confused the meaning of the Course in general because we do in fact KNOW that we are ALL SPECIAL in the Eyes of God and it is just a way to fuck with that understanding. And to laugh in the Face of God, thereby denying His Existence and adding to the confusion of the Son. THIS is the extent of the ego=god mentality that reviewed this Course “word for word” after Helen and Bill had completed their assignments.

There is another Maker of the world, (*IN OTHER WORDS THIS WORLD DOES EXIST) the simultaneous Corrector (*HEALING IS HERE N O W.) of the mad belief that ANYTHING could be established and maintained without some link that kept it still within the Laws of God. NOT as the Law Itself upholds the universe as God created it. (*This needs to be understood. NOT as the Law Itself upholds the universe as God created it.) But in some form adapted to the need the Son of God believes he has. (*This shows the respect and UNDERSTANDING that the FATHER has for Christ AS A WHOLE.) Corrected error IS the error’s end. And thus has God protected still His Son, even in error. There IS another purpose in the world that error made because it has another Maker, Who CAN reconcile its goal with His Creator’s Purpose.

*Amen, and thank you, thank you, thank you!

Till next time, God bless, debi.
