WEBVTT 1 00:00:18.519 --> 00:00:30.760 Welcome everyone. Welcome to the Healing Center in Baraboo, everyone 2 00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:34.520 who is here in the room. It's not some money 3 00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:46.079 on Monday morning and you out there listening. We're here 4 00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:51.159 for a moment in a space that we have dedicated 5 00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:59.960 to a purpose. And we call that purpose a course 6 00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:10.959 in Miracles International. We call it the mission of a 7 00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:13.640 Course of America's International. Maybe I'll read it at some point, 8 00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:18.519 because when I was reading the Mission of a Course 9 00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:22.040 of a Miracles International this morning, I recognize that it's 10 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:25.400 my mission, that it would have to be my mission, 11 00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:34.680 and so the invitation is to share with us in 12 00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:39.120 that mission. And as you do, you will begin to 13 00:01:39.159 --> 00:01:43.760 recognize that it is yours. So welcome to the lesson 14 00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:53.200 of the day. It is a lesson twenty nine. God 15 00:01:53.599 --> 00:02:06.719 is in everything I see, and before we before I 16 00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:13.840 read the lesson, which I will do in a minute, 17 00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:25.479 it's sort of interesting to see where this lesson follows on. 18 00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:30.879 It follows on the lesson of yesterday, which is Lesson 19 00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:35.879 twenty eight. Above all else, I want to see things differently, 20 00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:44.639 and Claire did a great job teaching that lesson yesterday. 21 00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:48.879 But I'm just going to come back to it for 22 00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:54.120 just one second, because what struck me when I was 23 00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:59.599 performing the lesson yesterday is that I always sort of 24 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:01.759 have a tency to read it as above all else, 25 00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:07.319 I want to see things differently, And obviously the emphasis 26 00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:12.280 is on differently, and it is it is on differently, 27 00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:19.879 but it is also on things. In this lesson, there 28 00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:26.599 is a notion that you, okay, above all else I 29 00:03:26.639 --> 00:03:30.759 want to see is less than twenty seven, and then 30 00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:33.159 we come to above all else, I want to see 31 00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:40.240 things differently. And so what it does, as I experienced 32 00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:44.680 it is that it asks you to focus on actually 33 00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:49.120 the condition in which you find yourself. It's not like, oh, okay, 34 00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:54.400 I want to see things differently and then just have 35 00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:55.759 a sort of general idea. 36 00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:56.199 No. 37 00:03:56.439 --> 00:03:59.039 It is, as with a long number of the lessons 38 00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:04.199 in the beginning, you are actually asked to use what 39 00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:12.080 is uh, what are things that are in your condition? 40 00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:16.160 And there is no question about what your condition is. 41 00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:19.639 If you come here, it says here you see a 42 00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:23.680 lot of separate things about you, which really means you 43 00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:27.360 are not seeing at all. But that's not really the 44 00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:30.800 the that's not really the the problem. We're not really 45 00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:34.959 concerned about the fact that you're not seeing anything at all, 46 00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:38.399 or that you're not seeing at all. We are only 47 00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:42.759 concerned in this lesson less in twenty eight that you 48 00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:48.279 are seeing things that are separate, apparently, And what you 49 00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:56.519 are asked to do with this lesson is that if 50 00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:59.560 you take one thing, and we'll use the example of 51 00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:03.439 a tape, but you could use anything that if you 52 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:12.399 practice with the individual things, that then you and then 53 00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.839 and you are And when you say you practice a lesson, 54 00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.319 the word commitment is used. So you begin to make 55 00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:24.519 a commitment to say, Okay, this thing, this computer screen 56 00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:29.920 has I'm going to make a commitment to withdraw my 57 00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:35.040 preconceived ideas about the computer screen, and I'm going to 58 00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:37.480 open my mind to what it is and what it 59 00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:41.639 is for, what its purposes, what its real purposes. This 60 00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.839 comes of course from Lesson twenty five. I don't know 61 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:51.319 what anything is for. That's why it's meaningless to you. 62 00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:55.839 You are beginning to being offered that there is really 63 00:05:55.920 --> 00:06:00.639 a purpose for everything, and you're beginning to discover you're 64 00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:05.319 going to discover what that purpose is. But it's not 65 00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:09.079 when it's so, we're not concerned really about some sort 66 00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:15.680 of general esotheric ethereal idea of that you're going to 67 00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:19.399 see something, but you're going to you we're going to 68 00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:26.519 use every individual thing, individual things that you see that 69 00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:29.160 you are now in the condition in which you find 70 00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:41.800 yourself seeing. So uh okay, So it says here you're 71 00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:46.639 not defining it in past terms, which is what you 72 00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:49.920 what is less than number seven? I see only the past. 73 00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:53.399 That's not a judgment on the way that you're seeing. 74 00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:56.879 It is the way you see as you find yourself. 75 00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:01.120 It is no use to deny that that you're seeing 76 00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:04.920 individual things. No, you're asked to recognize that that's the 77 00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:08.800 way you see. But now you're going to make a 78 00:07:08.839 --> 00:07:11.279 different commitment. You're going to say, no, I want to 79 00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:16.720 see those individual things differently. You're not defining it in 80 00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:20.160 past terms. You are asking what it is rather than 81 00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:23.519 telling it what it is. You are not binding its 82 00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:28.439 meaning to your tiny experience of tables, nor are you 83 00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:36.279 limiting its purpose to your little personal thoughts. And then 84 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:40.279 there's an important sentence in the lesson of yesterday. You 85 00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:45.120 will not question what you have already defined. So the 86 00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:47.360 moment you have already you already know what it is, 87 00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:50.839 you won't you will you will not question that you 88 00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:53.480 will not question, Oh that's the chair. Oh that's a 89 00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:57.560 computer screen. Oh that's a car, Oh that's a church, 90 00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:01.199 that's a tree, that's a body, that's so and so. 91 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:06.399 And the commitment that you're making now or ask to make, 92 00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:11.079 is if you can see, if you can withdraw that 93 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:21.279 idea that you have. Okay, So now when we come 94 00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:26.439 to the idea, let me see. So it says here, 95 00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:31.519 hidden under all your ideas about it is its real purpose, 96 00:08:32.159 --> 00:08:38.000 the purpose it shares with all the universe. And so 97 00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:40.879 you're asked to use the table or the computer screen 98 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:48.559 or whatever to begin to to see what is hidden 99 00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:54.720 under it, because there is that purpose that it shares 100 00:08:54.799 --> 00:09:03.159 with all the universe. And that's what we're after. Okay, Okay, 101 00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:06.639 so Lessen uh Lesson twenty five, and I'm going to 102 00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:10.799 prepare myself for less than twenty nine. God is in 103 00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:16.000 everything I see. And the first sentence is the idea 104 00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:30.759 for today explains why you can see all purpose in everything? Okay, 105 00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:35.399 why you can see all purpose in everything? God is 106 00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:39.000 in everything I see. So what does that mean? All purpose? 107 00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:45.000 We have seen in Lesson twenty five that there was 108 00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:49.799 a question like purpose me is meaning nothing? I see 109 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:53.799 means anything. But in less than twenty five you were 110 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:56.759 asked to practice. Hey, I don't know what anything is for, 111 00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:04.279 but you were also told that everything is actually in 112 00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:08.120 your own best for your own best interest. It is 113 00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:18.639 that is what it is for. That is what its 114 00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:23.840 purpose is. That is what everything's purpose is. In the 115 00:10:23.879 --> 00:10:34.720 truth of it, it is in your best interest. And 116 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:39.399 why is it in your best interest? Because and this 117 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.919 is this is why the lessons at some point begin 118 00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:50.000 to become attractive to you. I'm going to lesson number twenty. 119 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:59.200 I am determined to see your decision to see is 120 00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:05.879 all that vision requires. What you want is yours. Do 121 00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:09.639 not mistake the little effort that is asked of you 122 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.679 for an indication that our goal is of little worth. 123 00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.120 Can the salvation of the world be a trivial purpose? 124 00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:21.559 And can the world be saved if you are not? 125 00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:26.919 And here it is. God has one son, and he 126 00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:32.279 is the resurrection and the life. His will is done 127 00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:37.039 because all power is given him in heaven and on earth. 128 00:11:37.960 --> 00:11:45.080 In your determination is vision given you. So when we 129 00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:48.320 read here in God is in everything, I see the 130 00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:51.559 idea for today explains why you can see all purpose 131 00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:56.039 in everything everything that you see is actually for you. 132 00:11:56.840 --> 00:12:03.799 It shares the purpose of the universe, but that purpose 133 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:09.399 is only your best interests. There is nothing else because 134 00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:13.039 God has only one son that makes at some point 135 00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:15.919 that needs to make not only makes sense to you, 136 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:28.279 but it also it also would lead you to maybe 137 00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:37.000 recognize that these lessons actually are directed or are are 138 00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:41.799 for you, that they are actually that they are for you. 139 00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:51.360 I'll talk for another for a second about the Master 140 00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:59.200 Teacher's video that we saw yesterday. Yeah, I believe it 141 00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:06.840 was yesterday, where the one of the key notions is 142 00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:16.879 that in the idea of uh, what do you call it? 143 00:13:17.000 --> 00:13:23.480 Quantum teleportation, that y the Master Teacher is expressing the 144 00:13:23.559 --> 00:13:28.799 certainty for you that you are not from here, that 145 00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:32.960 this is not your home, that this is not where 146 00:13:32.960 --> 00:13:37.519 you belong, and that you are as you find yourself here, 147 00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:43.399 are actually dead. You are dead. It is not that 148 00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.679 you are alive and you're waiting to resurrect or that 149 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:50.519 you are la alive. And no, the moment you come 150 00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:53.000 here and you can say well, I'm not dead yet, 151 00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:56.919 that that interval interval of time in which you find 152 00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:04.639 yourself is what death is. And you are dead, and 153 00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:10.679 the whole objective. The whole purpose of the exercise that 154 00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:13.480 we're doing, and that is the purpose of of course 155 00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:23.679 in Miracles, is to allow you to undergo a transformation 156 00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:26.320 of your mind through the workbook of a course of miracles, 157 00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:30.639 to begin to recognize that there is no death, that 158 00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:34.879 is that yet you don't belong here, that you don't 159 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:41.919 have to be here. Okay, I recommend the video highly. 160 00:14:42.120 --> 00:14:48.679 I'm just very quickly going into it. But let's see here. 161 00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:51.480 The idea for today explains why you can see all 162 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:57.639 purpose in everything. It explains why nothing is separate by 163 00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:04.360 itself or in itself, and it explains why nothing you 164 00:15:04.519 --> 00:15:11.519 see means anything. In fact, it explains every idea we 165 00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:16.600 have used thus far, and all subsequent ones as well. 166 00:15:17.960 --> 00:15:28.919 Today today's idea is the whole basis for vision. So 167 00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:31.759 this is why again we are asked to practice this 168 00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:35.879 and apply to all the individual things that we see, 169 00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:38.639 because that is the condition in which we think we 170 00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:45.279 find ourselves. But as he says and reiterates it again, 171 00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:49.960 as he said yesterday, that actually nothing is separate by 172 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:53.919 itself or in itself. So the idea of the table 173 00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:59.559 or the chair, as he said yesterday, I'm just going 174 00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:04.799 over it again. In itself is not important at all. 175 00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:11.080 Yet what is by itself and what does in itself mean? Well, 176 00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:15.039 it doesn't mean anything. And this is why you can 177 00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:20.240 safely apply the lesson to the chair, because the chair 178 00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:25.159 is in fact sharing the purpose of the universe. If 179 00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:27.840 you apply it to the chair, if you apply it 180 00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:30.399 to the brother that is sitting next to you, you 181 00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:37.000 have accomplished the purpose of the lesson. Don't be concerned 182 00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:41.200 that you say, well, yeah, but I'm applying it to 183 00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:44.720 something that is separate, and I'm told that there is 184 00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:48.039 nothing to be there is nothing separate. No, that's true. 185 00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:53.759 Nothing is separate, nothing exists in itself. Everything shares the 186 00:16:53.879 --> 00:16:56.960 purpose of the universe. This is why you need to 187 00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:04.680 apply it to everything. And we're using the individuals apparently 188 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:18.759 separate things for you to do that. Okay, today's that 189 00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:22.440 the whole basis for vision. You will probably find this 190 00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:26.079 idea very difficult to grasp at this point. You may 191 00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:32.920 find it silly, irreverent, senseless, funny, and even objectionable. And 192 00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:35.599 your objections could come from the fact that you think, well, 193 00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:40.079 you know, that's an irv irreverent thing to say about God, 194 00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:45.400 that he is in everything, and you know it's senseless. 195 00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:51.880 Why would I wanna do that? Certainly, God is not 196 00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:56.240 in the table, for example, as you see it, exactly 197 00:17:56.559 --> 00:18:00.839 as you see it. Yet we am emphasized yesterday that 198 00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:04.720 a table shares the purpose of the universe, and what 199 00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:09.359 shares the purpose of the universe shares the purpose of 200 00:18:09.599 --> 00:18:16.000 its creator. Okay, that last sentence is not necessarily may 201 00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:21.039 not necessarily be acceptable. That somewhere it would become reasonable 202 00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:24.839 because if there is a creator, if there is a God, 203 00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:29.640 if there is something that creates everything, then you would 204 00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:38.960 think that everything that what shares the purpose of the universe, 205 00:18:39.599 --> 00:18:46.839 shares the purpose of its creator. Okay, try then today 206 00:18:47.319 --> 00:18:52.119 to begin to learn how to look on things with love, appreciation, 207 00:18:52.960 --> 00:19:01.440 and open mindedness. You do not see them, now, would 208 00:19:01.480 --> 00:19:06.039 you know what is in them? Nothing is as it 209 00:19:06.119 --> 00:19:14.720 appears to you. Its holy purpose stands beyond your little range. 210 00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:18.880 When v when vision has shown you the holiness that 211 00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:23.279 lights up the world, you will understand today's idea perfectly, 212 00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:26.640 and you will not understand how you could ever found it, 213 00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:31.079 have found it difficult. So it so when he says, 214 00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:37.880 try then to get today a to begin to learn 215 00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:41.720 how to look on all things with love, appreciation, and 216 00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.640 open mindedness. That is not an effort to sort of 217 00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:48.119 be a nice guy and look on everything with love 218 00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:53.279 and appreciation. It is as you look on everything now 219 00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:58.720 you'll see everything as actually a form of revenge. You saw. 220 00:19:58.880 --> 00:20:03.279 You see that everything around you is in fact attacking you. 221 00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:07.359 The chair is, in fact, as you see it is 222 00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:12.480 attacking you. But you are asked to withdraw your idea 223 00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:15.759 about it and say, no, God is in the chair. 224 00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:22.079 God is in this computer screen. And in that practice 225 00:20:22.640 --> 00:20:28.480 you will begin to see it differently. You will. The 226 00:20:28.599 --> 00:20:40.440 training is designed two to teach you and to let 227 00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:46.279 you have the experience of looking on all things with love, appreciation, 228 00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:49.839 and open mindedness. And as you're progressing in this, you 229 00:20:49.920 --> 00:20:52.640 will begin to recognize that this is true, that when 230 00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:56.680 you go to Walmart, you will love the person behind 231 00:20:56.680 --> 00:21:00.160 the cashier for the the you know, the cashier for 232 00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:03.000 no reason whatsoever. You will see look at your brother, 233 00:21:03.079 --> 00:21:07.680 and you will see you will begin to recognize, Hey, 234 00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:13.519 I just I just love you. I don't for no 235 00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:26.720 reason whatsoever. Okay, but these are these are important notions 236 00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:29.759 that you actually don't see the things that you are 237 00:21:29.799 --> 00:21:36.440 actually looking on now that you don't see them, Let 238 00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:38.920 me try. Let me read that again, Try then today 239 00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:41.680 to begin to learn how to look on all things 240 00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:47.079 with love, appreciation, and open mindedness. You do not see 241 00:21:47.119 --> 00:21:53.599 them now, so there is no real alternative to seeing 242 00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:59.119 them with love, appreciation, and open mindedness. If you don't 243 00:21:59.200 --> 00:22:06.480 see them with love, open mindedness, and appreciation, you don't 244 00:22:06.519 --> 00:22:16.279 see them at all. And so this is the practice. 245 00:22:16.480 --> 00:22:19.400 Nothing is as it appears to you. Its holy purpose 246 00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:25.000 stands beyond your little range, okay, and you will not 247 00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:30.359 understand how you could ever found it, have found it difficult, okay. 248 00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:34.519 Six two minute practice periods for today should follow a 249 00:22:34.640 --> 00:22:38.680 now familiar pattern. Begin with the idea, with repeating the 250 00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:42.960 idea to yourself, and then apply it to randomly chosen 251 00:22:43.039 --> 00:22:49.680 subjects about you, naming each one specifically. Try to avoid 252 00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:55.920 the tendency toward itself, toward self directed selection, which may 253 00:22:56.000 --> 00:23:02.279 particularly be particularly tempting in connection with today's idea because 254 00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:07.680 of its holy alien nature. Remember that any order you 255 00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:16.920 impose is equally alien to reality. So just because of 256 00:23:17.000 --> 00:23:20.480 the alien nature of this idea, God is in everything 257 00:23:20.559 --> 00:23:24.200 I see, you may be tempted to say, well, you know, 258 00:23:24.279 --> 00:23:30.680 it's more likely that God is in this the you know, 259 00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:35.799 the beautiful sunset that's more appealing to me, rather than 260 00:23:36.039 --> 00:23:39.720 in the door knob. You will not be maybe be 261 00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:42.480 tempted to say, well, I'm going to make a difference there, 262 00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:46.799 or you know, the tree, that's a beautiful tree. Let's 263 00:23:46.839 --> 00:23:49.200 you know, I'll apply it to that God is in 264 00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:53.319 the tree instead of God is in the com computer screen, 265 00:23:53.519 --> 00:23:57.359 or God is in this hand, or God is in 266 00:23:57.400 --> 00:24:03.400 the lamp, or God is in the air conditioning unit. 267 00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:11.799 You know, it's this is the type of randomness that 268 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:16.880 is asked, and I'm just lifting it up now beyond 269 00:24:17.039 --> 00:24:19.920 things that you can actually see God is in this 270 00:24:19.960 --> 00:24:24.880 particular situation. It will may be difficult to say, well, 271 00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:27.920 I mean, this is a horrible situation. How could God 272 00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:31.519 be in it? Now? God is in that situation. You 273 00:24:31.599 --> 00:24:34.160 are asked to apply it so that you may see 274 00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:41.640 it differently and actually that it is in your own 275 00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:47.599 best interest, whatever the situation looks like. Your list of 276 00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:52.000 subjects should therefore be as free of self selection as possible. 277 00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:56.000 For example, a suitable list might include God is in 278 00:24:56.039 --> 00:25:00.119 this coat hanger, God is in this magazine, God is 279 00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:04.279 in this finger, God is in this lamp. God is 280 00:25:04.319 --> 00:25:08.519 in that body. God is in that door. God is 281 00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:16.559 in that wastebasket. In addition to the assigned practice periods, 282 00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:19.240 repeat the idea for today at least once an hour, 283 00:25:19.799 --> 00:25:24.319 looking slowly about you as you say the words unhurriedly 284 00:25:24.480 --> 00:25:29.240 to yourself. At least once or twice. You should experience 285 00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:35.319 a sense of restfulness as you do this. And this 286 00:25:35.400 --> 00:25:39.079 is of course the whole objective of the idea, that 287 00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:41.880 you know when you begin to practice, God is in 288 00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:46.359 everything I see. That maybe you will begin to experience 289 00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:53.039 what is behind the things, the reality of what is 290 00:25:53.640 --> 00:25:56.799 behind the things that you seem to be looking at, 291 00:25:58.240 --> 00:26:01.319 and that they are not what you thought they were, 292 00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:05.279 that they appeared to be something that they're not. And 293 00:26:05.319 --> 00:26:36.519 now you begin to see God is in everything I see. 294 00:26:37.559 --> 00:26:45.960 Brother, the brother, Brah, the brother. 295 00:26:53.079 --> 00:27:02.359 Just because, let's go and listen to the song of heaven. 296 00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:10.960 What's going on? Perhaps you can hear what's going on. 297 00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:20.519 Listen to the song of heaven. What's going. 298 00:27:21.279 --> 00:27:44.160 Oh, all hearts are tranquil, a longing satisfied. 299 00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:47.559 There is no sorrow. 300 00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:49.839 The joy of. 301 00:27:49.839 --> 00:27:51.839 Heaven has come. 302 00:27:55.200 --> 00:28:02.480 Love no longer fee but gladly welcomed. 303 00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:12.559 And every living thing. Father. Now we sing. 304 00:28:13.880 --> 00:28:14.359 Of you. 305 00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:29.960 In the song of Heaven, Sounds of ravens song. It's 306 00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:37.359 we are lifted up, lifted up. No spot of darkness, 307 00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:38.839 still to hide. 308 00:28:38.880 --> 00:28:45.559 Still to hide the words. We are lifted up, lifted up. 309 00:28:47.119 --> 00:28:49.480 Love no longer fee. 310 00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:55.880 But gladly welcomed. 311 00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:02.720 And every living thing. Father. Now we see. 312 00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:20.000 You, your grandma and my grandma. 313 00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:21.839 Sitting by the fire. 314 00:29:22.559 --> 00:29:26.400 Your grandma, my grandma. 315 00:29:27.559 --> 00:29:36.680 What's going on? Jealous? Long what's going on? Perhaps you 316 00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:40.079 can hear all hearts are. 317 00:29:40.119 --> 00:29:52.400 Tranquil, oh, longing, satisfied, There is no sorrow. 318 00:29:53.039 --> 00:30:00.519 The joy of heaven has come. Love no long. 319 00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:06.880 Goofy good glad welcome inn. 320 00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:24.920 And every living thing Father. Now we sing, we sing you, 321 00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:31.240 We sing. 322 00:30:41.279 --> 00:30:41.519 In the. 323 00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:50.519 Welcome back. Yeah we have so we we practiced, gottage 324 00:30:50.559 --> 00:30:53.920 and everything I see and we have a little time. 325 00:30:55.119 --> 00:31:00.759 So I'm going to I'm just gonna, with your permission, uh, 326 00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:04.559 maybe read a few things from the text of course 327 00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:11.960 the Miracles. But before I do, I was reminded and 328 00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:15.519 I wrote this somewhere in my book. We are in 329 00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:24.920 the quantument Quantum entanglement, entanglement series with the Master Teacher. 330 00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:34.000 I think we're still in that series Quantum Teleportation, and 331 00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:42.799 it is what I was reminded of is that there's 332 00:31:42.799 --> 00:31:46.160 of course this idea of quantum. That's this all the 333 00:31:46.240 --> 00:31:49.880 idea of an alternative to the reality that you seem 334 00:31:49.960 --> 00:31:54.319 to find yourself in. And like it's the same idea 335 00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:58.519 as Heaven is this state that is somewhere else, and 336 00:31:58.680 --> 00:32:03.519 is we find ourselves here and heaven is this this 337 00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:08.839 place that we need to reach or something. But it's 338 00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:12.880 it's important to recognize and this is what I wrote here. 339 00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:18.119 This is something that Borr Nils Bohr wrote or said. 340 00:32:18.559 --> 00:32:22.000 He said, there is no quantum world. There is only 341 00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:28.960 an abstract quantum physical description. So the idea and this 342 00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:33.559 is what we're dealing with. It is we're just only 343 00:32:33.680 --> 00:32:37.559 dealing this is how I perceive it. We're only dealing 344 00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:41.640 with the change of mind. And then it is not 345 00:32:41.880 --> 00:32:49.200 like there's a real there's a choice between two real things. Uh, 346 00:32:49.319 --> 00:32:57.039 there are just two descriptions of reality. The quantum world 347 00:32:57.240 --> 00:33:00.680 is not a is not a real. Different world is 348 00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:11.480 just another way of describing your reality. And okay, he says, 349 00:33:11.960 --> 00:33:16.440 it's another thing that I wrote down, apparently about physical 350 00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:20.720 waves or something that are perceivable, and it says there 351 00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:24.640 are not. They are not physical waves at all. Rather, 352 00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:30.160 the wave function of the particle includes all the possible 353 00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:35.279 states of a system before a measurement. Before a measurement, 354 00:33:36.079 --> 00:33:42.480 these states exist in what they call superposition, wherein every 355 00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:48.839 possible outcome is described at the same time. And so 356 00:33:49.759 --> 00:33:53.839 this is why we are looking at This is why 357 00:33:53.880 --> 00:33:59.839 we're asked in and it's it's as so simple where 358 00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:02.920 as to apply the lesson for today, God is in 359 00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:07.039 everything I see to the chair, because the chair is 360 00:34:07.119 --> 00:34:13.199 not really it shares the purpose of the universe. It 361 00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:20.320 shares all possibilities. It is. If we don't judge it, 362 00:34:20.400 --> 00:34:24.639 if we withdraw what we have defined it to be 363 00:34:25.119 --> 00:34:31.559 from it, from everything, from the situation, from whatever we encounter, 364 00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:38.920 apparently in this place where we don't belong, then we 365 00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:52.199 may be able to experience that actually that particular thing 366 00:34:55.800 --> 00:35:05.400 consists of all possibilities. This is why we say that 367 00:35:05.480 --> 00:35:10.360 everything is true by the possibility of it, because everything 368 00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:15.679 is possible all the time. That's its reality. That's if 369 00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:18.639 you don't judge it, if you don't define it, if 370 00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:22.760 you don't if you say God is in the chair, 371 00:35:23.559 --> 00:35:30.519 then you are actually expressing that commitment to your reality. 372 00:35:31.239 --> 00:35:32.599 That m. 373 00:35:37.159 --> 00:35:42.199 Okay, and then tomorrow, of course becomes the explanation of 374 00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:45.679 why that is true, because God is in everything I see, 375 00:35:46.280 --> 00:35:50.440 because God is in my mind. But we're not gonna 376 00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:58.719 do that lesson now, Okay, what I was going to 377 00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:22.480 read this is in chapter eleven, section four. It's called 378 00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:30.719 the Inheritance of God's Son, and we'll just back up 379 00:36:31.679 --> 00:36:33.800 one paragraph here at the end of the other section, 380 00:36:34.519 --> 00:36:42.039 it's called from darkness to light in your mind. You 381 00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:45.840 can accept the whole sonship and bless it with the 382 00:36:45.960 --> 00:36:51.000 light your father gave it. Then you will be worthy 383 00:36:51.119 --> 00:36:54.440 to dwell in the temple with him, because it is 384 00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:59.719 your will not to be alone. God blessed his son, 385 00:36:59.800 --> 00:37:06.000 for if you will bless him in time, you will 386 00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:12.480 be in eternity. Time cannot separate you from God if 387 00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:17.320 you use it on behalf of the eternal. This is 388 00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:21.840 why we say God is in the chair, God is 389 00:37:21.920 --> 00:37:26.360 in the lamp. We use time on behalf of the eternal, 390 00:37:28.360 --> 00:37:33.960 the inheritance of God's Son. Never forget that the sonship 391 00:37:34.119 --> 00:37:41.760 is your salvation, for the sonship is yourself as God's creation. 392 00:37:42.440 --> 00:37:47.639 It is yours and belonging to you. It is his. 393 00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:55.280 Yourself with the capital s does not need salvation, but 394 00:37:55.400 --> 00:38:03.480 your mind needs to learn what salvation is. It needs 395 00:38:03.519 --> 00:38:09.400 to learn that the sonship is your salvation. You are 396 00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:14.760 not saved from anything, but you are saved for glory. 397 00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:21.840 Glory is your inheritance given you by your creator, that 398 00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:26.639 you might extend it. Yet, if you hate part of yourself, 399 00:38:27.480 --> 00:38:31.920 all your understanding is lost because you are looking on 400 00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:38.440 what God created as yourself without love, and since what 401 00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:42.880
