leap into Allness and

Lenny said: From Doug in red. He's heavy.
Michael said: No, actually he's
altarLIGHT.
Yes, Michael. If you look at Doug
with
the body's eyes you know the words
of altarlight are not coming from Doug's
humanness, but from his divinity ... the
divinity of us all.
And yes Lenny, He's heavy.
Pure gold
is heavy. Sure the words are
filtered a
bit at times through the
humanness of
Doug, and contain a little of the matrix
from which they were refined, but that's
okay. When I put on
my stay cool
glasses I can see through
the filter.
With love,

PS to Lenny: Yes, you are a heart stopper and then it does little pitty
pats ;-) LOL Plus I love the searchable ACIM you
turned me onto. It is
so much nicer than the "Electronic
ACIM" I had in many ways
because it gives the sentence
containing the words searched for, the page number on
which they are found, the whole paragraph if you want it,
and a Bible reference if there is one. Thank
you! Do you
think a donation would be in order? Problem is
I lost track
of where to send it. I just looked up
"Love casts out fear"
and got this:
"All aspects of fear are untrue because they do not
exist at
the creative level, and therefore do not exist at all.
To whatever
extent you are willing to submit your beliefs to this
test, to
that extent are your perceptions corrected. In sorting
out the
false from the true, the miracle proceeds along these
lines:
Perfect love casts out fear.
If fear exists, Then there is not perfect love.
But: Only perfect love exists.
If there is fear, It produces a state that does not
exist.
Believe this and you will be free.
Only God can establish this solution,
and this faith is His gift."
ACIM p. 14
"Teach only love for that is what
you are."

altarlight: Everything the eyes of your false
body perceives in the world you see from day to day is projection from the
partial view of your sight brought about by denying part of vision. The common
idea of a subconscious mind is not necessarily what psychology would support,
but yes, it is of denial. However, the entire dream world is of denial,
including both this level of unconscious and what we typically refer to as
conscious...both are of denial. Only that which is completely real (you as
infinite) is not of denial....and its wholeness of knowledge and vision make
such ideas as conscious and unconscious obviated as meaningless divisions within
the world of separation ideation.
Jen: Very well said. I think it's easier to take
responsibility for things that effect you personally - like your relationships,
finances, job - than it is to accept responsibility for such big things as war,
poverty, disease etc. These things really do seem outside the scope of
one's ability to influence. What would you say to people with this
concern?
Len: If you like your world the way it is,
continue to enjoy it. We always have complete freedom of being.
If you do not like it and have tried everything possible to change it with minimal or no success, know that there's still at least one thing more that you may not have tried. altarlight: You are free to try anything you wish, and some methods will bring happy results, or so it seems...and some will bring you nothing, or bring you unhappy results, or so it seems. All of that which appears in the dream world's illusory field is illusion and is also temporary. It is this temporariness, also called unfaithfulness, that brings devastation eventually (death, reincarnation and other anomalies), because the world so made is not real and cannot be sustained. On the other hand, faithfulness, or vision that arises from and as part of the knowledge of reality of self, and which cannot be seen by the false body's eyes, is unchanging and never-ending. If all one does in life in the dream is to try to make the dream happy by utilizing methodologies, and then calls this creating reality....so be it, but it cannot BE reality, for it addresses unreality with methods and processes also unreal. Len: The Source
of all creation is being Itself through us as us. We are using our complete
freedom of being to play a silly game called The Separation Game. This is really
a totally safe game like any game because it can only be played in the
imagination. The game in a nutshell is reversing the order of creation.
altarlight: Guess that depends on what you call safe. I would not call Desert Storm or the holocause safe....even if the participants to it are safe in heaven. The game....is NOT safe...only the reality of self is safe. Len: The real
order is: Source extends Itself from Itself (outward). It is still one with It's
extension (effect) and never separate.
altarlight: Reality has no order, nor any chaos...for it is not demanding any outcome or result to arise from its beingness. It already is what it needs wholly to be...sharing love with all always. Len: The
Separation Game: The order is reversed. The extension (world, body) becomes the
source (cause) and the Source becomes the effect (victim). The cause (outer) and
its effect (inner) are separate. In other words: we are imagining that in is out
and out is in and never the twain shall meet. Laughing at this absurdity is a
way of freeing ourselves from it too. <smile>
altarlight: While it does indeed seem that the order is reversed, that is an illusory view. That fact need not make it unimportant to consider, for the atonement, healing and forgiveness (all the same thing) are also illusory. It seems like a reversed order, and in a sense, it is. Denial has attempted abridgment of incoming data by denying admittance to vision of some of it. This denial always begins with that which is necessary to see wholly, for all is always necessary to see wholly. Thus, the data not refused cannot appear as it is, but only as the denying mind allows...leaving the remainder outside of admitted vision, impinging upon mind to allow it entry. Thus the refused data becomes like the cornerstone of the temple...absolutely necessary to erect the holy edifice....a bit like putting the cart before the horse. The data needed to bring forth the inherent whole vision is denied, and thus the data admitted must be artificially and thus arbitrarily structured, as it cannot have innate wholeness without the denied data. The result is a world appearance structure that must keep collapsing upon itself over and over, for it literally has no permanent and whole foundation with which to stand. Appearances suggest that the order is reversed, but those same false appearances suggest that there is such a thing as order. Order is an idea of a nature that requires ordering, whereas wholeness is innately what it is without structuring. Len: We've been
playing this game for eons of time. We have been trying to reverse it back but
the denial has been so great that it has been nearly impossible with little
success. Now there is a way to completely reverse it back to the default
(original order). It's like we would be putting The Source back on the thrown of
our lives and allowing It to set the order straight again. Knowing the world to
be a distorted mirror of all of our mind (conscious, subconscious and
unconscious), is the first step. Forgiving what we created, not out of guilt but
to show that we take responsibility for choosing to play this game and to allow
for the DENIAL to weaken. Observing the seeming outer miscreation without a
reaction of fear or blame will help it slowly (in some cases quickly) to
disappear.
altarlight: It is indeed possible to become willing to look upon the truth. In the dream world of illusory appearances, the false world and its underlying beliefs and views begin to weaken and shift to an order that seems "better"...and this seemingly better view seduces many to a belief that this has been achieved in the world. However, that view is false and is tantamount to making the dream real...which cannot be done. Nevertheless, as we look upon the truth, we are set free, regardless of any views within the dream world...if we do not subjugate our own selves to the beliefs that try to arise as a substitute of evidentiary notions within the dream. We can look at the idea of taking responsibility for playing the game, for indeed it is our responsibility within illusion. However, it is not our true response ability...but only an idea set spun off from denial. As we look upon truth, the false ideas (of self) dissipate, and the world of death of guilty temporary substitutions also dissipates...specifically because looking upon truth reinforces a new habit to see truth more and more until that truth is whole and thus agrees wholly with knowledge. Len: Be
prepared for a major miracle! It works! altarlight: Yes, miracles do happen...illusory or not...and help us to have courage and confidence to look even further beyond them and the surrounding dreamscape....to see the reality truth points toward. The inner light can answer any of this world's queries and resolve any of its problems. Beyond all of these concerns, the inner light will show you who you are and your relationship to all...and bring you an understanding of love and peace that transcends ordinary human thought processes.
