Perception

@Nisargadatta_M: There is nothing to be done, nothing to be given up. Just look and remember, whatever you perceive is not you, nor yours.

LIFE ITSELF

@JohnGreerPublis: To find what you are, to return to your true nature, there is nowhere to go and nothing to do. It is hidden in plain sight, LIFE ITSELF.

Judgement

Before the ego — the thought of separation — there was no judgment. There was no sense of an 'other' to judge or evaluate. But with the idea of separation, there needed to be a mechanism to hold separation in place so it would seem to be real. For this purpose the ego made judgment. "Judgment was made to be a weapon used against the truth. It separates what it is being used against, and sets it off as if it were a thing apart." (1:1-2)

God, in His grace, provided an antidote for this poisonous thought system. Because we had already embraced the "reality" of judgment, He needed to use that mechanism for a different purpose that would be to the point where judgment is recognized as no longer needed. This antidote is the Holy Spirit. While the ego judges from a limited perspective that cannot see the whole, the Holy Spirit judges from the point of seeing totality. Thus His judgment is very simple. He recognizes all things as either real or unreal. What is real is Love and nothing else. What is unreal is nothing and is disregarded as meaningless and without effect. 

Identification

@BeingAboutBeing: The essential illusion is identification, I am this or that, all the rest follows out of that.

Thought

@JohnGreerPublis: You can’t think your way out of the delusion of self that blinds you. That would simply add another layer of thought to your confusion.

Pain

@ACIMquotes: "If God is real, there is no pain. If pain is real, there is no God." #ACIM #quotes

Not different

@JohnGreerPublis: When the “I” becomes just something else observed in the flow we see we’re not different from anything else in the universe.  Steven Levine

What is sinless

@ACIMquotes: "To see a sinless body is impossible." #ACIM #quotes

The thinker is the culprit

@JohnGreerPublis: We cannot think our way out of the suffering we experience. The reason we are suffering is the “thinker” we identify with.
