Speaker 1: Hello, good morning. I'm sorry about that pause that we
Speaker 1: seem to experience. My mic was on mute, so there
Speaker 1: I was talking away and no one could hear me anyway,
Speaker 1: Thankfully you can hear me. Now here comes Claire. Hi, Claire.
Speaker 1: So we're doing less than seventy five today, and my goodness,
Speaker 1: what a lesson it is. The light has come and
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna spend a lot of time on any
Speaker 1: kind of preamble because the lesson itself is absolutely phenomenal
Speaker 1: and we're going to kind of dive right into it.
Speaker 1: I m I may stop in between and make comments,
Speaker 1: but uh, we'll see how we go. Okay, but this
Speaker 1: is an extraordinary lesson. I know that most of you
Speaker 1: have actually already uh read the lesson this morning, or
Speaker 1: quote unquote done the lesson this morning. I always, you know,
Speaker 1: say that with a little bit of uh, I don't know,
Speaker 1: with a bit of hesitation, I have done the lesson.
Speaker 1: I I what does that really mean? I've done the lesson.
Speaker 1: It's it's an ongoing process, isn't it. I Mean, as
Speaker 1: long as you find yourself in a condition in which
Speaker 1: you do not belong, there is a requirement for you
Speaker 1: to stay in the practice of the release of the condition. Right, Okay,
Speaker 1: So so let's uh, let's take a look at the
Speaker 1: lesson Lesson seventy five. It's extraordinary and it's amazing and
Speaker 1: like you've never read it before. I wouldn't even say
Speaker 1: done it before. Like you've never read it before. Uh,
Speaker 1: with a completely open mind and new mind here, that's
Speaker 1: completely anew because I I I assure you it is amazing.

Speaker 1: and you can heal. The light has come. You are
Speaker 1: saved and you can save. You are at peace, and
Speaker 1: you bring peace with you wherever you go. Darkness and
Speaker 1: turmoil and death have disappeared. The light has come. Today
Speaker 1: we celebrate the happy ending to your long dream of disaster.
Speaker 1: There are no dark dreams now. The light has come. Today,
Speaker 1: the time of light begins for you and everyone. It
Speaker 1: is a new era in which a new world is born.
Speaker 1: The old one has left no trace upon it in
Speaker 1: its passing. Today we see a different world because the
Speaker 1: light has come. There is no equivocation in either of
Speaker 1: those paragraphs that I have just read. The light has come.
Speaker 1: That is the fact of the matter. This is a
Speaker 1: new moment a new air. It doesn't matter what you
Speaker 1: thought a moment ago. It doesn't matter what you thought yesterday.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. None of that matters now, because the
Speaker 1: light has come. The light is here. Your mind is
Speaker 1: receiving the light right now, because your mind is made
Speaker 1: of light. So literally, the veil that you have held
Speaker 1: up in front of the light, that has covered the
Speaker 1: light in your awareness is being lifted and the light
Speaker 1: cause the light is here. The light has come. Okay,
Speaker 1: So our exercises for today will be happy ones in
Speaker 1: which we offer thanks for the passing of the old
Speaker 1: and the beginning of the new. Wow. This is a
Speaker 1: brand new moment. This is a moment of rebirth. You
Speaker 1: are clean, you are purified. It's brand new. Wow. No
Speaker 1: shadows from the past remain to darken our sight and
Speaker 1: hide the world forgiveness offers us Today. We will accept
Speaker 1: the new world as what we want to see. We
Speaker 1: will be given what we desire. We will to see
Speaker 1: the light. The light has come. Wow. Our longer practice
Speaker 1: periods will be devoted to looking at the world that
Speaker 1: our forgiveness shows us. This is what we want to
Speaker 1: see and only this. Our single purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today,
Speaker 1: the real world rises before us in gladness to be seen.
Speaker 1: At last. Sight is given us. Now that the light
Speaker 1: has come, we do not want to see the ego's
Speaker 1: shadows on the world. Today. We see the light, and
Speaker 1: in it we see Heaven's reflection lie across the world.
Speaker 1: Begin the longer practice periods by telling yourself the glad
Speaker 1: tidings of your release. The light has come. I have
Speaker 1: forgiven the world. Dwell not upon the past today. Keep
Speaker 1: a completely open mind, washed of all all past ideas,
Speaker 1: and clean of every concept you have made. You have
Speaker 1: forgiven the world today. You can look upon it now
Speaker 1: as if you never saw it before. You can look
Speaker 1: upon it now as if you never saw it before. Wow,
Speaker 1: you do not know yet what it looks like. You
Speaker 1: merely wait to have it shown to you. While you wait,
Speaker 1: Repeat several times, slowly and incomplete patience. The light has come.
Speaker 1: I have forgiven the world. Realize that your forgiveness entitles
Speaker 1: you to vision. Understand, and that the Holy Spirit never
Speaker 1: fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving.
Speaker 1: Believe he will not fail you. Now you hear those
Speaker 1: three instructions, Realize, understand, Believe, Wow, you have forgiven the world.
Speaker 1: He will be with you as you watch and wait,
Speaker 1: He will show you what true vision sees. It is
Speaker 1: his will, and you have joined with him. Wait patiently
Speaker 1: for him. He will be there. The light has come.
Speaker 1: You have forgiven the world. Tell him you know you
Speaker 1: cannot fail because you trust in him, And tell yourself
Speaker 1: you wait un certainty to look upon the world he
Speaker 1: promised you. From this time forth, you will see differently. Today.
Speaker 1: The light has come, and you will see the world
Speaker 1: that has been promised you since time began, and in
Speaker 1: which is the end of time ensured. Nothing more to say.
Speaker 1: We are going to go straight to the practice. We
Speaker 1: are going to take a full fifteen minutes, and remember
Speaker 1: as you practice, dwell not upon the past today, keep
Speaker 1: a completely open mind, washed of all past ideas and
Speaker 1: clean of every concept you have made. You have forgiven
Speaker 1: the world today. You can look upon it now as
Speaker 1: if you never saw it before. You do not know
Speaker 1: yet what it looks like. You merely wait to have
Speaker 1: it shown to you. While you wait, repeat several times,
Speaker 1: slowly and in complete patience. The light has come. I
Speaker 1: have forgiven the world. Realize that your forgiveness entitles you
Speaker 1: to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to
Speaker 1: give the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe he
Speaker 1: will not fail you. Now the light has come. I
Speaker 1: have forgiven the world.
Speaker 2: Past.
Speaker 3: Paaaaaaa aaaaber and at.
Speaker 4: The pact, my my, my, my, oh my, why not
Speaker 4: I want no.
Speaker 1: D and.
Speaker 5: Of wow.
Speaker 1: Should you be tempted, say to eh, sorry. The shorter
Speaker 1: practice periods, too, will be joyful reminders of your release.
Speaker 1: Remind yourself every quarter of an hour or so that
Speaker 1: today is a time for special celebration. Give thanks for
Speaker 1: mercy and the love of God. Rejoice in the power
Speaker 1: of forgiveness to heal your sight completely. Be confident that
Speaker 1: on this day there is a new beginning. Without the
Speaker 1: darkness of the past upon your eyes, you cannot fail
Speaker 1: to see today, and what you see will be so
Speaker 1: welcome that you will ex You will gladly extend today forever.
Speaker 1: Say then, the light has come. I have forgiven the world.
Speaker 1: Should you be tempted, say to anyone who seems to
Speaker 1: pull you back into darkness, the light has come. I
Speaker 1: have forgiven you. We dedicate this day to the serenity
Speaker 1: in which God would have you be. Keep it in
Speaker 1: your awareness of your self and see it everywhere today
Speaker 1: as we celebrate the beginning of your vision and the
Speaker 1: sight of the real world which has come to replace
Speaker 1: the unforgiven world you thought was real. So the three
Speaker 1: instructions today, give thanks, rejoice, be confident, think. And this
Speaker 1: isn't the uh fault confidence of the ego. This is
Speaker 1: not about self esteem of a body identity. This is
Speaker 1: an inner knowing, an inner trust, an inner confidence in
Speaker 1: the love of God, in the light of God which
Speaker 1: is now being revealed in you. The light has come today.
Speaker 1: You have forgiven the world. Wow. So that's our lesson today.
Speaker 1: There's not really anything I can add to it. There's
Speaker 1: nothing I would wanna add to it. There is nothing
Speaker 1: that could be added to it. The light has come
Speaker 1: to the degree that you desire the experience. It is
Speaker 1: available to you today right now. The past is gone.
Speaker 1: It can touch you not. The light has come. You
Speaker 1: have forgiven the world. And as Jesus says in the
Speaker 1: beginning or towards the beginning of the instruction for the exercise,
Speaker 1: he said, keep a completely open mind. And I would
Speaker 1: venture to say that an open mind is the way
Speaker 1: of the forgiving and the forgiven you hold on to nothing.
Speaker 1: Your mind is open. And you know, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to try and describe what that is like for you,
Speaker 1: because it is for you, however it is for you.
Speaker 1: But I have to say, for me, it's almost like
Speaker 1: being headless. It really is. It's like the whole universe
Speaker 1: is my head, you know, and it just goes on forever,
Speaker 1: and you hold on too nothing. You know, the concepts
Speaker 1: come and go, and you hold onto nothing, and you
Speaker 1: really do begin to experience your own inherent, your own
Speaker 1: intrinsic freedom, because you are free. And I thought I
Speaker 1: might read actually open mindedness, which is number ten of
Speaker 1: the ten characteristics of the teachers of God. And of
Speaker 1: course you know that the first characteristic is trust. And
Speaker 1: your confidence today is born of trust, trust in God,
Speaker 1: trust in reacty, trust in the truth. That truth is true,
Speaker 1: that no crazy ideas that you have had has had
Speaker 1: any effect whatsoever on the truth. There is an inner,
Speaker 1: strong trust that you evolve in this circle awakening process
Speaker 1: that remains unshaken regardless of what appears to happen, regardless
Speaker 1: of the the vestiges of the perceptual consciousness that seems
Speaker 1: to plague you from time to time, there is an
Speaker 1: inner knowing that that idea is not what you are,
Speaker 1: That there is reality, there is God here. And now,
Speaker 1: so let's talk about open mindedness for a second. The
Speaker 1: centrality of open mindedness, perhaps the last of the attributes
Speaker 1: the teacher of God acquires, is easily understood when it's
Speaker 1: relation to forgiveness is recognized. Open mindedness comes with lack
Speaker 1: of judgment, as judgment shuts the mind against God's teacher,
Speaker 1: so open mindedness invites him to come in. And this
Speaker 1: U always reminds me of, uh, of a of a
Speaker 1: one of these zen cohens that you know, we read
Speaker 1: from time to time, and there was a part there
Speaker 1: was a particular story of a zen master who just
Speaker 1: you know, went about his business openness minded and forgiving,
Speaker 1: completely accepting of all things, knowing that he is not
Speaker 1: from here in any regard that the light has come,
Speaker 1: and happily sharing his light as one does. Yeah, and uh,
Speaker 1: he lived apparently next to a couple who just found
Speaker 1: him completely objectionable, completely obnoxious, and completely unacceptable because he
Speaker 1: could not be pulled into this you know then yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: of the perceptual mind. And so anyway, I mean, he
Speaker 1: didn't really. He wasn't really aware of any of this stuff,
Speaker 1: except that the daughter, the teenage daughter of these neighbors,
Speaker 1: got pregnant, and of course when her parents uh discovered,
Speaker 1: they hit the roof and they wanted to know who
Speaker 1: the father was, who d did this to you? And
Speaker 1: uh she was of course afraid to admit it was
Speaker 1: you know, her seventeen year old boyfriend, so she blamed
Speaker 1: the zen Master. She said, oh it was it was
Speaker 1: you know, the guy next door, the zen guy next door.
Speaker 1: He seduced me, and oh my goodness. They went across
Speaker 1: the street, They went next door to him. They yelled
Speaker 1: at him, They said, how dare you do this? This
Speaker 1: is really absolutely awful. How dare you you are going
Speaker 1: to be responsible for this kid when the kid is born,
Speaker 1: and YadA, YadA, YadA YadA, and all he said was okay.
Speaker 1: Nine months later, of course, the girl gives birth and uh,
Speaker 1: I didn't think they even let her see the baby.
Speaker 1: They grabbed the baby and took the baby across this
Speaker 1: the coarticular baby across to the uh zen Master and
Speaker 1: handed it to him. Here's your baby, you take care
Speaker 1: of it. You know, we never wanna see it again
Speaker 1: and what did you say? Okay, So you know, he
Speaker 1: went and got the necessaries for looking after a baby
Speaker 1: and cared for this baby, and the baby grew and
Speaker 1: you know, I think the baby was about one one
Speaker 1: and a half when the girl finally confessed to her
Speaker 1: parents that she had lied and that indeed it was
Speaker 1: her boyfriend who uh had fathered this child. And oh
Speaker 1: my goodness, they were devastated. How could you do this
Speaker 1: to us, bring this kind of shame on us, And
Speaker 1: we're gonna accuse this, gonna accuse us, and how could
Speaker 1: you possibly do this? So they go across to the
Speaker 1: zen Master, full of apologies. They prostrate on the floor.
Speaker 1: We are so sorry. Please do with us whatever you will.
Speaker 1: We have come to take the baby we falsely accused you.
Speaker 1: Please forgive us, and the zen Master said okay and
Speaker 1: handed them the baby. That's open mindedness, dear friends. There
Speaker 1: was no condemnation, no guilt, no fear, no recrimination, nothing.
Speaker 1: That's a free mind because it's not in the association.
Speaker 1: It's not caught in the script of limitation, and and
Speaker 1: that is available to each and every one of us,
Speaker 1: especially today because the light has come. Okay, open mindedness
Speaker 1: comes with lack of judgment. As judgment shuts the mind
Speaker 1: against God's teacher, so open mindedness invites him to come in.
Speaker 1: And this is the Holy Spirit, the Holy breath, the
Speaker 1: Holy air, the Holy Spirit. I love it. It's a real
Speaker 1: experience of the limitlessness of your own mind, the freedom
Speaker 1: of God. Wow.
Speaker 6: Wow.
Speaker 1: As condemnation judges the son of God is evil, so
Speaker 1: open mindedness permits him to be judged by the voice
Speaker 1: for God on his behalf, As the projection of guilt
Speaker 1: upon him would send him to hell, So open mindedness
Speaker 1: lets Christ's image be extended to him. Only the open
Speaker 1: minded can be at peace, for they alone see reason
Speaker 1: for it. How do the open minded forgive? They have
Speaker 1: let go all things that would prevent forgiveness. They have,
Speaker 1: in truth abandoned the world and let it be restored
Speaker 1: to them in newness and enjoy. So glorious they could
Speaker 1: never have conceived of such a change. It's brand new,
Speaker 1: this is our lesson today. The light has come. This
Speaker 1: is a new day. It's a day of joyce, the
Speaker 1: day of rejoicing. Rejoice, be confident.
Speaker 7: Wow.
Speaker 1: Nothing is now as it was formerly, nothing but sparkles now,
Speaker 1: which seems so dull and lifeless. Before and above all
Speaker 1: are all things welcoming. For threat is gone, no clouds
Speaker 1: remain to hide the face of Christ. Now is the
Speaker 1: goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final goal of the curriculum.
Speaker 1: It paves the way for what goes far beyond all learning.
Speaker 1: The curriculum makes no effort to exceed its legitimate goal.
Speaker 1: Forgiveness is its single aim at which all learning ultimately converges.
Speaker 1: It is indeed enough, hold on to nothing, It is
Speaker 1: indeed enough. You may have noticed that the list of
Speaker 1: the attributes of God's teachers does not include things that
Speaker 1: that that are the son of God's inheritance. Terms like love, sinlessness, perfection, knowledge,
Speaker 1: and eternal truth do not appear in this context. There
Speaker 1: would be most inappropriate here. What God has given is
Speaker 1: so far beyond our curriculum that learning but disappears in
Speaker 1: its presence. Yet, while its presence is obscured, while you
Speaker 1: have that veil obscuring the light that you are, it
Speaker 1: does need to be lifted. While the while its presence
Speaker 1: is obscured, the focus properly belongs on the curriculum. It
Speaker 1: is the function of God's teachers to bring true learning
Speaker 1: to the world. Properly speaking, it is unlearning that they bring,
Speaker 1: for that is true learning in the world. It is
Speaker 1: given to the teachers of God to bring the glad
Speaker 1: tidings of complete forgiveness to the world. Blessed indeed are they,
Speaker 1: for they are the bringers of salvation. Will take a
Speaker 1: moment and uh, we'll play a song. Hello Dennis, and
Speaker 1: then we'll come back and wrap this up.
