Change the way you see the world...

It is not that the physical is a bad thing. It is neutral. It is the effect of a simple thought that we were suddenly separate from our Creator. It does nothing to reality; in reality, we remain as created. The physical is not a system unto itself, into which we moved. We invented it spontaneously when we thought we offended our Creator.

The thought that brought about the images we call "physical" is not neutral, as no thought is neutral. Thought is of mind, and mind is the activating agent of Spirit. What we really are is so beautiful; it is perfect; it is holy. We already are everything we need to be in order to have eternal life. we are eternal life.

Why should we have to earn eternality? It makes more sense to me that we would already be eternal, thus free, thus everything wonderful and alive with eternal validity. It must then follow that we really do know who and what we really are. We have beliefs of sin and punishment because of this universal despair, which is based upon our deep-seated belief that we angered our God. How does perfect Love become angry?

Physicality is images. There is no world. None of the terrible things we think happened, ever really happened. "My brother, what you thought you saw was never there." --A Course in Miracles. Allow that to sink in. What if we remain as created, the way ACIM says? What if we really are eternally safe, but safe because there is no such thing as unsafe. Do you see? I have no knowledge that you do not have.

There is no "outside". Everything is everything. We are one unlimited Self. The tiny instant of fear is gone. It is not our Creator's Will. And so, it never was. Forgive the world; release it. Change the way you see the world, and the world you see will change.
