What is Really Necessary?

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 00:53:00 +0000

M: You want me to live as if nothing is true. As if nothing matters. How can I possibly live like that?

C:Without any effort at all.

M: What does that even mean?

C: Live without the constricting belief in necessity.

M: Some things are necessary.

C: Only TRUTH is necessary and that requires NO effort at all. Very simply, that which requires effort due to its necessity is not TRUTH. Egocentricity can only avoid truth, because egocentricity requires great effort to be sustained. You have expended much unnecessary effort and are very weary because of it.

However, you have not yet fully exhausted your "self" from the incredible effort required to interact with a dream and, hence, still believe it necessary to do so.

Those who do not realize they are dreaming believe death a necessity and this demands life be suffered, but not LIVED. Truth is effortless and has no necessity. Your suffering is merely the result of believing the impossible is necessary. Truth does NOT require this belief.

M: How can I live in a meaningless world?

C: Why ask a question you have already answered? Although, you must learn that the answer is incorrect because you do not yet live. You cannot live in a dream.

M: Then who am I?

C: The meaningless fabrication of a sleeping mind. A wisp of nothingness, spinning madly in a vortex of useless activity. You are a THOUGHT that has no purpose but to believe it exists and from that one thought a billion more rally to support the delusion of a “life.”

Do not take this thought seriously any longer. It would be better served with laughter. No thoughts you now think are in any way necessary for the mind to hold.

You are beginning to realize it matters NOT what you DO. Such a realization naturally ends all victimization within a dream of necessity. However, you continue to struggle with the meaningless as indicated by your desire to make it mean something.

M: If it doesn’t matter what I do, then why do anything at all? I should just do nothing.

C: You keep returning to this idea of "nothing." You have NO comprehension of NOTHING and feel bound to every choice you make, because every choice merely reinforces a dream in which choices are necessary.

Truth is not a choice. Nevertheless, if you look closely at your “life,” every choice ever made has not sustained you and only requires further choices be made to extricate yourself from what must always be judged as unsustainable.

Not one relationship, not one choice of vocation or activity, not any possession ever obtained or even one single, solitary belief has ever sustained you.

The thought of “you” is completely unsustainable because it was designed to make choices in a dream. “You” have no other purpose but to perpetuate lies and this is not the purpose of your creation, but a CHOICE you make and continue to believe as necessary.

How many more choices must be made before you surrender the capacity to choose in the realization that the "self" cannot be sustained by any choice IT ever makes?

Nevertheless, you are correct. You should do NOTHING and allow me to choose for you.

M: That’s all well and good, but right now I have to choose whether or not to quit my job.

C: Choices made out of necessity must of necessity fail to sustain simply because they are founded on a dream being “true.” Does it matter what choice you make, if all choices “you” make are unnecessary? Why choose at all if it makes no difference to future choices, since every choice only asserts a past? This is why I ask that you allow me to choose for you. There can only be one choice that need be made and that choice is to surrender your NEED to choose.

When you feel the desire to choose, ask me and wait for my answer. Do not decide how the answer will come to you. Only be certain that it will come and only prepare yourself to receive. Make no mistake, if you are waiting for the answer you demand, you will not receive my offer, because you have shut it out.

M: Why can’t you just tell me now?

C: You look to a dream to teach you what you are. I ask that it now be used to teach you what you are NOT. You are NOT the victim of a dream. See that answer everywhere you look.

You are beginning to recognize the meaningless nature of you. You are beginning to see what is unnecessary. This should be cause for joy since it denotes absolute freedom. But egocentricity equates it with death and, therefore, you will experience suffering instead. The ego claims that if what you are DOING does not matter, something more meaningful must be found, because there cannot ever be NOTHING.

Eventually when absolutely nothing is necessary, absolutely nothing will be required. Yet, because you fear this moment, you will move from one meaningless fixation to the next.

Egocentricity cannot live in a meaningless world, for if the world is meaningless, that which lives IN the world must suffer that same fate.

M: Why can’t I see it as a dream?

C: Do not look for a dream outside the mind, because it cannot be seen with “eyes” made for dreaming. The dream is product of the belief in “you.” This is First Cause and all else followed in support of that one “idea.” Yet, it is only an idea and ideas can be changed when it is learned that they have no meaning and are unnecessary.

M: So, in order to see the dream, I have to see myself as meaningless?

C: Dreams are unnecessary and, as that belief in necessity dissolves, all else naturally falls away, not by control but simply by the lack of necessity.

If the protagonist loses significance in the drama, supporting roles can no longer retain their purpose and fade from view. Nevertheless, as long as “you” continue to be necessary, all thoughts in support of that belief must play their part. Recognize your roles are meaningless. You have no purpose in a dream, but to awake.

A dream need only be seen as unnecessary for you to realize it is nothing more than a dream. Nevertheless, the roles you have allowed yourself must first be seen as without purpose and unnecessary. Otherwise, you will pick and choose the parts of the dream that suit your preferences as necessary and those parts will conform perfectly to the roles you have scripted.

M: How can I see myself as unnecessary?

C: Have NO serious intentions that seek for an outcome and look for NO results associated with your actions. Allow the dream to expose itself to you, by surrendering control of any purpose it might serve as necessary.

You must have faith that NOTHING matters to that which has NO meaning and is unnecessary, since only TRUTH is necessary.

You are Fully Committed to Nothing

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 16:40:00 +0000

M: So if I give up all expectations, all dreams, desires and goals. If I completely give up thinking I know what is best for me. What then?

C: In that void the TRUTH will naturally rush in to meet that invitation.

M: So maybe I should just sit and meditate for long periods. Isn’t that the same thing?

C: It is impossible to understand TRUTH while continuing to maintain goals for your world. The mind does not cease from its commitment to making the dream “real.” Your world unravels within you, even when you believe your thoughts are inconsequential and account for nothing. Seeking to quiet the mind, while still attached to what the “noise” offers only reinforces sacrifice because you believe something will be LOST. Truth requires no loss at all.

M: So nothing should matter? I should just not care about anything?

C: When “care” is a direct product of fear, it serves only to magnify that which gave it birth. Fear always seeks to CONTROL what it “cares” for and your constant vigilance toward controlling your world is utterly exhausting. Your need for control only informs the mind that the threat of LOSS is “real,” insuring the result will be as asked and LOSS will be real. What you ask for, you always receive. Make no mistake, what you CONTROL as a result of “care” you will lose, because you have insured this FACT by nature of your control. This is exactly how the “world” you experience is constructed.

M: It is very hard to let go when I have an idea of what I want.

C: You have many “ideas,” but you have NO certainty. This is why you have called on me because I am always CERTAIN. Certainty controls nothing because there is simply NO need.

M: I get what you’re saying. But the desire to make things happen the way I want, is often irresistible.

C: If you are NOT perpetually increased by your “desires,” know that you have limited yourself by applying conditions that only inhibit freedom. You clearly know the feelings that come from fear. But you have no experience of the joy inherent to a complete absence of fear. As long as you seek to control reality, your fears can only multiply perpetually. To desire a specific outcome naturally seeks to bend reality to the conditions necessary to experience what you desire.

Fear and control are in DIRECT relationship with one another. There is NEVER one without the other. The more fear you experience, the more control you apply and the more control applied the more fear must naturally increase. You cannot break this cycle by addressing FEAR, simply because you fear everything. But you can give up control by transferring it to me. Until fear is banished from your mind, choices must be made to control the dream from within it, rather than from within YOU. I can make choices for you, because I am absent all fear.

There has never been a moment from which you correspond with your world completely absent fear. Make no mistake in this one thing above all others, if you are not experiencing indescribable joy, then fear is what you have chosen to experience. You struggle to give up control, because your fear makes it necessary. Substituting my direction in place of your control is tantamount to “death,” because you equate control of your world with “life.” Your “pursuit of happiness” is nothing more than pursuing ever greater control of your world.

The only way you will ever release FROM fear is by understanding that there is nothing TO fear and you will realize this FACT by surrendering control of that which your fear constructed.

M: I should just let things happen?

C: Nothing “happens” without your asking. You paint the dream with broad strokes, but give attention only to details. It is absurd to lament your demise while dreaming of death. It is foolhardy to feel buffeted about in a dream of chance and still grieve missed opportunities and it is pure insanity to dream of hate and still seek to find the love you have insured cannot be “there.”

M: I feel that I’m spinning my wheels with all this and there never seems to be any joy to life, just one problem after another.

C: And every problem is always the same. You believe problems interfere with the joy you desire. But it is the lack of joy that is foundation to every “problem” the mind installs in awareness. Joy does NOT cause problems, but the absence of joy must experience problems naturally, because this is its purpose.

Hence, it stands to reason that lack of joy is cause and NOT effect. But you believe “happiness” is a product of the world and must be caused from it, rather than engaging a “world” that is product of the joy in YOU. To seek happiness in a dream that you demand reflect deprivation is insane. Nothing in your dream of can give you joy until you demand that purpose of it, because it will only conform to the purpose you set.

It will take time to revert from problem seeking to joy, because you have allotted much time to this “perception.” Nevertheless, this is the purpose you must learn and for which you have called on me to teach.

Your experiences are repetitive because you think the same thoughts and you do not yet believe that your thoughts make your world and so the world never changes but repeats your thinking.

M: As much as I try to be guided, ego eventually takes over and I’m right back where I started.

C: Although you are much closer than before, you are NOT yet fully committed. You still remain committed to parts of the dream.

M: I still have to participate in parts of the dream.

C: A body can only “participate” in parts. A mind creates in whole and ALL the parts participate in that unity. You are committed to participation and not creation and the parts reflect this fact. The goal requires ONLY your full commitment, after which, “all else will come unto thee.” This is no different than committing to the goals of a dream. However, you have not yet fully committed to what the dream offers either.

You are fully committed to NOTHING.

In a dream, what you receive is based on the level of commitment you apply, because a dream can have NO certainty. God is certain and therefore, requires full commitment for the goal of certainty to be achieved.

M: So every waking moment I must be fully committed to God?

C: Is it not a worthy goal to awake from your lack of commitment to an uncertain dream, by committing to the certainty of TRUTH? Or would you rather continue your serial commitments to the parts of the dream that have NO ability to wake you from a dream of suffering? Would it not be a more worthy goal to “participate” in parts, while fully committed to the whole? Or do you find suffering through the uncertainty of a dream more to your benefit than freedom from suffering through the certainty of the whole? TRUTH can be found even in the uncertainty of a dream, when certain of your commitment to seeing ONLY that. You cannot partially commit to the certainty of TRUTH and KNOW God. TRUTH is known in full or not at all and your commitment to parts demonstrates that you are committed to knowing NOTHING. Therefore, I ask only for your full commitment.

Your lack of commitment to seeing the dream causes you to suffer through your “participation” in the uncertainty of the parts. Full and unwavering commitment to God will alleviate that instantly. My hand has been extended for centuries waiting for the moment you take it. Have faith in that certainty and nothing will ever be the same again.

The Curse of Perception

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 00:59:00 +0000

M: Why does this hurt so much?

C: If you add what does not belong you will suffer from what you insist is “real” but can never be TRUE. Discard what does NOT belong and free yourself from what you impose upon the experience of “you.” Make no mistake, the “world” is nothing more than the experience of your “self” from which you push away ALL that you have determined as NOT “you.”

Such attempts to control a delusional reality from within the delusion are destined to fail, because it only reinforces the power to be controlled by that which you determine as separate from you. There is nothing apart from your mind. Nothing leaves your mind and you are “there” as is everything you perceive as divided from you.

All fear merely attests to the fear of your own thought.

M: What doesn’t belong?

C: Everything you demand as “real” only blocks TRUTH by keeping the experience of your “self” in scattered pieces rather than WHOLE. Forcing “reality” to conform to your expectations creates defenses against the TRUTH of the whole by attacking the parts that you deem as separate from that wholeness.

What you determine as NEEDED can only defend against TRUTH, because TRUTH simply does not conform to the chaos of your separate and divided thoughts. Nothing you THINK reflects wholeness, but merely perpetuates the weakness inherent to the parts that you have expelled. You will expect attack from that which you banish and your thoughts currently reflect that constant preparation. Yet, what is a part of you cannot attack when it experiences the wholeness that only YOU can provide.

What belongs will be apparent by the fact that YOU have no need of it. This makes it free and clear of your conditions and you will experience the WHOLENESS inherent to that absence.

You will ONLY be increased by what comes to you without condition.

Conditions are nothing more than your preparation for defense against that which you have expelled. You have expelled everything and that exclusion is evident by the very act of SEEING.

Your needs are the conditions from which awareness of “reality” is sculpted into chaotic pieces having NO purpose whatsoever. This does NOT reflect TRUTH, but results in “perception.” Yet, you fail to realize that the very act of perception slices up the whole into separate disparate parts. Therefore, you must understand that you can never experience wholeness through perception. Yet, you can give wholeness TO perception and be renewed by that unified experience.

M: So I should just give up all my needs?

C: You will ALWAYS suffer from what you evaluate and "perceive" as LOSS. In a world through which you must defend against the parts, there is NO capacity to perceive the TRUTH that is right before your “eyes.”

There can be no loss in TRUTH, because it takes nothing away and ONLY increases. Only perception looks for and sees loss.

But you fear you will be deprived and so you fear what TRUTH will give you. Through perception you demonstrate your fear of having everything and losing nothing. Hence, perception has cursed you with the need to judge between parts by what the parts contain. This weakens you because there is nothing in the parts but what perception provides by “seeing” it.

Yet, still, you do not believe “perception” a curse, but idolize it as a means of “survival.” You will “die,” but only because you “perceive” death and perception makes it true.

M: So I just have to recognize that I have NO needs? Again, another impossible task!

C: Indeed, for one who perceives NEED, the task appears insurmountable. Deprivation makes TRUTH seem unavailable, lost and in need of discovery. Why else would you have called on me if not to aid you in correcting this error?

M: So what about this particular situation?

C: What I teach applies to all situations. Your belief in “particular” situations is why you have yet to understand TRUTH.

There are no situations or events separate from TRUTH. There is only what you choose to experience either through TRUTH or through perception. If you encase TRUTH in the concepts you “perceive,” you will be controlled by an “outside” world.

However, you are free to change your thinking at any time and this “particular situation” can be of incalculable value toward that goal. But you must take direction from one who knows that value.

You have been here before many times over. Yet, of your “self,” you can only repeat the past, because your perception is a product of that past and you will only see what it teaches you.

M: So what do you want me to do?

C: Nothing

M: What do you mean “nothing”? I have to do something or things could go wrong.

C: Are you not yet weary of all your efforts? Have you not yet realized you have no basis for perceiving right or wrong? Are you not ready to let down your defenses in the realization that they have not served you?

Perception is a defense against TRUTH and your reliance on it fails to increase you. When you are ready you will give me ALL your experiences and I will show you how to see it ALL in TRUTH. I will show you that right and wrong are not part of TRUTH and you will be overjoyed with the understanding that you need not rely on perception as the means of making CHOICES. You will experience freedom beyond your wildest imaginings in the realization that you need do nothing at all.

Your mind languishes in a hell of your CHOOSING. What more could freedom be than an END to this?

In this "situation," do not decide you know what is best. Make no choices based on perception without first asking me what it means. Do not be afraid and have faith that you will learn and what you learn will naturally increase you as only the TRUTH can. You are already suffering because your egocentric perceptions mislead you into making choices that decrease you, causing you to experience weakness and loss. This wastes time and is completely unnecessary.

M: You want me to deny reality.

C: I ask that you deny the reality you have made, because it was made to be perceived apart from TRUTH.

God created TRUTH because God is TRUTH and so MUST you be. Nothing you “perceive” can change that FACT simply because what is separate from God cannot exist in TRUTH. You are NOT separate from God but your incessant need to “perceive” your world denies this FACT from you.

I teach only the TRUTH as it was placed within me and nothing else. I am the TRUTH and I AM in you as you are in me. You cannot “perceive” me, nor do I perceive you. We are joined as ONE through the mind that gave us life and that life cannot be experienced through perception.

Yet, the experience of that LIFE can completely alter perception and what you “see” will astound you, but only until the moment TRUTH dawns on you and perception ceases its hold as all remnants of the past evaporate like fallen raindrops in the hot midday sun.

This freedom awaits you my brother as it awaits ALL that you “perceive.” Perception can only whither and die under the magnificence of TRUTH.

No longer will you be troubled by choices that fail to summon TRUTH before your eyes. This is your inheritance and delay no longer in accepting what is yours, as it was given you upon your Creation. This dream is not your home. But it can serve to show you the way when it no longer serves any other purpose BUT that alone.

Truth is Known by Increase

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 11:08:00 +0000

M: Why does this hurt so much?

C: If you add what does not belong, you will suffer from what you insist be “real” but can never be TRUE. Discard what does NOT belong and be free from what you impose upon yourself.

What you superimpose upon experience diminishes you.

Your attempts to control a delusional reality by manipulating your delusions must fail, because it only reinforces the power of what is not TRUE to control you.

M: What doesn’t belong?

C: Everything manipulated as “real" can only block TRUTH. Forcing “reality” to conform to your expectations demands you defend against TRUTH. What you determine as NEEDED defends against what is TRUE, because TRUTH does not conform to what you THINK and every experience is a product of your thought. Nothing is free of your mind and that is a law of God which you can NOT alter. You can deny it and this is the chief defining property of ALL your suffering.

M: So nothing I see, hear, touch or even think for that matter, is real?

C: It is ALL very “real” for you. Yet, it holds no TRUTH because it does NOT increase you.

TRUTH is known by increase. It cannot decrease, lose or take away. It cannot fade or change. It does not reduce, limit or obstruct. It does NOT suffer from deprivation because it is deprived of nothing. It is constant and has absolutely NO conditions because it is absolutely FREE.

What belongs will be apparent by the fact that it is free of your conditions. Your conditions result from your belief in deprivation. You can ONLY be increased by what comes to you FREE, without condition. Your conditions are filters that channel awareness to what must be defended as separate from the WHOLE. Only what is separate do you refer to as “real.” Therefore, you know nothing as TRUE.

You believe constant increase is impossible and that everything must eventually decrease and die. Your needs arise from deprivation and are the conditions from which the “real” is constructed. The details are intensely imaginative and “real” for you, but completely delusional. “Real” is a delusional concept of your invention. TRUTH does NOT know of it, because TRUTH has an opposite.

M: So I should just give up all my needs?

C: You will ALWAYS suffer from what you evaluate as LOSS. In a world through which you experience deprivation, you have LOST the capacity to see the TRUTH that appears directly before your eyes.

There can be no loss in TRUTH, because it takes nothing away and ONLY increases. But you fear it will deprive you of your egocentric "reality" and so you fear what TRUTH will give because it will give you everything and you will lose nothing. That which is defined through deprivation will cease to exist when it has everything. Yet, if TRUTH increases everything then deprivation cannot possibly exist NOW, as that would be a lie. The logic of TRUTH is quite elementary, but is well hidden within the complexity of your egocentric concepts.

M: So I just have to recognize that I have NO needs? Again, another impossible task!

C: Indeed, for one who believes in deprivation, the task appears insurmountable. Deprivation makes TRUTH seem unavailable, lost and in need of discovery. Why else would you have called on me if not to aid you in correcting this error?

M: So what about this particular situation?

C: Your belief in “particular” situations is why you have yet to understand that TRUTH encompasses all experience. There are no situations or events. No episodes or moments. No days or months or years. There are no specific or particular experiences. There is, and can only ever be, one TRUTH, applicable in all cases.

If you lock away your experiences behind limiting concepts, you must only be imprisoned within the finite, conditional thoughts of your own mind. This is your “reality” and it is only your thinking that is deprived.

However, you are free to change your MIND at any time and this “particular situation” can be of incalculable value toward that goal if you so choose. But you must take direction from one who knows what that value is. You do recognize you have been here before and, of your “self,” you have NO recourse other than to repeat the past, because past thoughts have NO basis for existence in TRUTH.

M: So what do you want me to do?

C: Nothing.

M: What do you mean “nothing”? I have to do something.

C: Are you not yet weary of all your frantic efforts? What thought, concept or belief from the past will save you this time? Have you not yet realized you have no basis for determining right or wrong? Are you not yet ready to let down your defenses in the realization that they have not served you and, in fact, only perpetuate suffering? Does your “world” not demonstrate this to you?

When you are ready you will give me ALL your experiences and I will show you how to see it ALL as ONE. I will show you that right and wrong are not part of TRUTH and you will be overjoyed with the understanding that you need not CHOOSE any longer. You will experience freedom beyond your wildest imaginings in the realization that you need do nothing at all. Your mind languishes in a hell of your CHOOSING. What more could freedom be than an END to making the choice TO suffer?

In this situation, do not decide you know what is best. Make no choices without my counsel. Do not be afraid and have faith that you will learn and what you learn will naturally increase you, as only TRUTH can. learning that does not provide constant increase is ignorance. Is it clear to you now that, in all your years, you have learned nothing at all?

You have no means of accurate assessment. You are always wrong when you believe you are right and right when you are wrong. There can be NO difference in a dream of “reality” except what you decide and you do not have the means of deciding anything correctly because you have assessed it ALL as “real.” It is this evaluation that divides your world and tears it into opposing pieces and through these scattered pieces you define a “self” as part of the whole, thereby, denying that you tore it apart so as NOT to know the whole.

You are here to learn what YOU are and have called on me to teach you. Take rest in me and I will take up your burden and we will tread lightly together. Walk this dream with lightened steps and an ease to your gait, because you walk with one who knows the way out.

Interpreting Salvation

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 02:39:00 +0000

C: You interpret a need to suffer again?

M: I can’t help it. Things are not working out well.

C: How do you know that?

M: It’s what I experience.

C: Egocentric exclusivity demands ALL experience demonstrate a separation from your world. Inclusive oneness does not simply incorporate “other people,” but ALL that the mind perceives itself apart from.

Your salvation is based entirely upon interpretation, because you have the POWER to interpret yourself SAVED from the suffering of exclusivity into an inclusive whole and from that interpretation you ARE saved. God waits for you to make this decision and it is certain that YOU will.

M: So I just need to interpret myself saved and I’m saved?

C: Nothing more is needed. You interpret yourself in hell and, hence, this is your experience. If everything your mind shows you is THOUGHT, and I assure you it is ONLY that, then “hell” is simply an interpretation that you are separate from your own THINKING. You have invented THOUGHTS that you interpret as beyond your control. But how can this be if it is ALL your invention?

M: I still don’t see how this helps me.

C: Recognize that nothing in your world is what you have interpreted it to be and discard your interpretations as meaningless. You have learned nothing from them, except to unravel ever more absurd meanings from erroneous perceptions based on false interpretations. All previous interpretations are completely useless to you NOW.

The original interpretation that you are separate from God and, hence, from everyone in your “world,” made all subsequent decisions patently meaningless. You must correct the original interpretation before you will interpret your world correctly.

The dream unfolds as nothing more than an interpretation on you. The “world” conforms to what you interpret your “self” to be and not what the world determines you ARE. You interpret the world as oppositional to you when, in fact, you only oppose your “self.” You hate what you are, but seek a way to “love” yourself and this “loving hatred” is reflected back to you. Everywhere you look you perceive a world of other minds hating what the mind seems to show them, but desperately seeking for a way to love what they fear. This is how you interpret your “self” and, thus, it stands to reason that you would SEE your world this same way.

There can be NO peace to a confused mind split between interpretations of love and fear. Eventually, you must choose only one, because there is only one. This is what you have called on me to show you. Do NOT deny the purpose you give me.

M: If I made the world, why is it not the way I want?

C: The disorder and chaos of your world simply reflects the meaningless disorder of your mind. Yet, you continue to claim that it is “out there.” You refuse to accept your role and what is “out there” only reflects that refusal. You adjust your inner state to what you behold “outside” and inevitably suffer internally from what you make externally “real.”

You have sought out many situations as a means of finding “happiness.” Each situation brings you NO closer to what you seek, because you will not FIND it in a “world” that you have made as a means to HIDE it. Why insist on seeking what you have arranged can NEVER be found?

These situations must be interpreted in a way for PEACE to return. There is nothing that need be sacrificed for this to be LEARNED in every moment. If you could experience the Joy of God inherent to TRUTH, you would know this without doubt and peace would be experienced in every moment.

M: But you want me to surrender everything I believe in.

C: What GIFTS have your beliefs bestowed upon you? Have they alleviated your fear or ended your suffering? Have they given you infinite joy and peace? Have they provided you with a love conditioned on nothing, but love itself? Do your thoughts dissolve all conflict or merely further reinforce opposing conditions? Have you ever experienced JOY from what you believe and is that JOY transferable to your "world”?

If not, then why would you wish to keep “believing”? What purpose do your beliefs serve except to perpetuate what came before and why would you wish more of the same?

It is inherent to your God given free-will to believe whatever you should choose and how you respond to your world immediately demonstrates what you have chosen. I merely teach that there is another choice available, because this is what you ask of me.

Do not determine your role in any situation. Make no decisions on what you wish to happen or on what outcome you feel is best. Make no judgments on what you want and await what will be shown to you because YOU have asked for it. Understand that if you feel deprived or discouraged in any moment, then you have decided in error and ask for correction.

Your feelings can be used to measure your distance from TRUTH. When you allow TRUTH to guide you, you will feel measurably INCREASED beyond anything you have ever experienced. Nothing from the PAST can insure this increase. Hence, believe that you DO NOT KNOW and believe nothing else, because no other belief has the power to save you from the hell you have made by what you believe.

Dreams Do Not Leave The Mind Of The Dreamer

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 10:56:00 +0000

M: Actually, what I’ve noticed recently is that, since these conversations, I’ve been experiencing more stress in my life than before. I sometimes think trying to learn what you teach is causing me more problems because I’m trying to attain what is totally unattainable.

C: Your need to experience “problems” has not changed, because you identify with deprivation and every problem symbolizes an absence of what you insist will “save” you.

However, your desperation for freedom from your problems is obviously intensifying as you begin to learn that FREEDOM has always been available to the MIND, but never the body. There will come a time when you will think with me always, in the realization that the ‘self’ you rely on to make use of a body cannot free your MIND. Yet, you continue to believe it is a sacrifice to free your MIND of what the self makes “real.” You believe “happiness” is out there and must be found. Hence, you stand before the bridge, but fear crossing.

M: I feel I should be farther along than I am.

C: The idea that you are NOT yet “there,” is the one idea currently inhibiting progress. You are THERE and only one last step must be taken before you see what you have come to see. You may take that step now or wait a thousand more years, but it is certain you WILL cross.

You still seek for evidence of change to “appear” in your world. The world will always witness to your state of mind. NOTHING changes without your WISH, but you wish only for what you know and you know NOTHING.

Do not rely on “perception” to teach you that you know NOTHING, because perception will teach you that NOTHING is "something" and you will learn from the PAST. There is NO progress in going backward. I offer you a future absent all past and in that, you will experience a present never before known.

You have begun to use your “problems” to negate what I teach and deny TRUTH. You claim that since your problems have increased, I must be a fraud.

This idea only serves to support your weak imagination, which the dream can only reflect back to you, in contradiction to my teaching that your strength is beyond the weakness you now imagine real.

Weakness always distrusts what it sees and sees only what must be distrusted as means of reinforcing its weakness, which it claims as "strength." You are beginning to trust in ME and this can only increase your trust in THEM, because to FULLY trust in me, you must FULLY trust in THEM. This closes the gap that you imagine separates you from your world.

M: So I have to rely on others to awaken from my dream?

C: The dream of “you” is yours and there are NO “others.” God did NOT create divided minds to occupy separated and estranged bodies as means to oppose one another. It is your dream and therefore, what happens is always a product of your request.

When you no longer demand the past define the present, you will understand all your experiences as ONE and that ONE experience will naturally awaken YOU from your dream.

THEY can teach you that you are only dreaming, because it is what you will teach THEM. Every moment you push them away, every time you curse what the dream shows you, you keep them and yourself in HELL.

M: How do I teach anybody anything when I don’t know anything?

C: There is a part of you that can teach a different purpose for what you imagine as “real.” It is from “there” I came and it is to there we BOTH will return.

That part has never left God and is inextricably bound to TRUTH. That part is completely whole and is NOT aware of separate THOUGHTS opposing one another. It can only teach what it knows and it will teach you to see the wholeness of your dream, since the only means of awakening from a dream, is to see it ALL as you have made it.

A dream does NOT leave the mind of the dreamer.

Teach THEM that they are also dreaming and you will learn that from THEM. However, determine that they are right or wrong in any way and they will teach you to oppose them.

Think of everything you want and teach the opposite. This will aid you in corresponding with the part of you that is unaware of egocentricity and is, therefore, NOT dreaming of opposites.

M: The only part of me I know of is living and interacting in the world.

C: You look to your world to teach you what you ARE and you will learn what “you” have taught it. There is more to YOU than your world can ever show you, but you must show that to your world. Let go of everything you THINK you are and you will discover what you are in TRUTH. Do not be afraid that you will falter or fail because you do not follow the rules of the dream. Realize that you are ruler of the dream and the rules will dissolve before your eyes.

M: Why would I dream certain experiences and not others? Why is my dream specifically as it is? Why are certain people a part of my dream?

C: You wish to learn that there is nothing to fear in a dream made of fear. You are its maker and you have asked me to teach you this, because you know it MUST be true.

This radically alters the dream into a cause for rejoicing, because a mind completely free of fear cannot but rejoice because it is FREE. Make no purpose for THEM other than this and you will learn from THEM what you teach. Free THEM of your concepts and THEY will free YOU from the prison of your own. This is THEIR only purpose, because it is YOUR only purpose. What other purpose could you set for THEM but this? What other purpose could your world serve but to free it and yourself?

Nevertheless, you have specified many purposes for parts of your dream and this has only kept you from awaking. Separate thoughts can only conflict and oppose one another and your world reflects those opposing ideas.

Your experience of a “world” would be completely different if ALL ideas were equal. All ideas IN a dream are equal because they are ALL NOTHING. The “happy” times and the “sad,” the moments you have cursed in rage and those moments in which you THOUGHT you had finally found joy. Not one of them was real. Invest the dream with any special moments in time and you will NOT awaken from a dream world constructed entirely FROM the delusion of time.

This is NOT where you belong and you have never really felt as though you belonged here and that feeling intensifies. You are beginning to see the absurdity of your chaos. But you must take my hand else you will dream of your destruction and accept it as “real.”

You cannot die, but you can dream of death and, because of the absolute incredible power of your mind, you will believe it.

Your Commitment to Symbols

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 11:34:00 +0000

M: Now that my marriage is over, should I seek for love again?

C: Seeking for “love” through a symbolic reality can only end in failure because symbols are not real.

M: Well, I’d rather not live the rest of my life alone.

C: Would that be any different from what preceded? You have surrounded yourself with bodies, but only to further symbolize your estrangement from TRUTH because you fail to use the symbols to realize TRUTH.

All the symbols of your dream serve the purpose of either waking from the dream or remaining victimized by it. Your current actions demonstrate the choice you have made. However, your FREE-WILL offers you the ability to choose again.

M: So I should not commit to doing anything?

C: You are FREE to “commit” to whatever you wish in a “world” you demand symbolize “reality.” But what is the purpose of committing to symbols? Would you rather not commit to REALITY?

You must also recognize your ‘self’ as symbolic of what is past and, therefore, only capable of repeating what was learned. In that recognition, you will understand that you have NO idea what you want, nor could you ever.

Choosing between symbols seems to demonstrate differences. Nevertheless, the symbols merely serve to hide the fact that NOTHING is there, but what you demand be present.

You are “committed” to your LOVE of symbols and believing in what is NOT real is the very foundation of your suffering.

However, the pain of this recent experience, which you symbolize as failure, has the capacity to successfully accelerate your learning by symbolizing a greater openness to guidance. You are beginning to contemplate the notion that you do NOT KNOW what any of your symbols really mean.

Nevertheless, you still remain resistant and staunchly “committed” to choosing a symbolic representation to SAVE you. Symbols cannot save, but only victimize.

M: So the people in my dream are only symbols?

C: Do you not see that you have made a purpose for everyone you encounter? You believe that purpose was there before the encounter, but this is clearly in error. You have set the purpose for everyone you meet and if they seem to rebel from that purpose, you have asked for that as well.

M: I suppose I just want things to work out right.

C: And always based on the delusional idea that you could even KNOW the difference between which symbols are right or wrong. I teach that they are neither, being only symbolic.

The only goal to accept for every situation is that you do NOT KNOW. This allows you to learn HEALING from the symbols you call on, in the understanding that ALL experiences are provided by YOU and can symbolize whatever you wish for them.

There is a deeper part of you unknown to the surface desires of an egocentric dream. A part that is aware of the whole, because it IS whole. Through a more effective use of your fragmented symbols, it will help you experience that wholeness.

M: It does seem that I forever go over the same problems, the same anger and resentments, the same reactions, time and time again. It all gets repeated over and over.

C: The problem is always the same IF you continually seek an answer from what only symbolizes a PAST and, make no mistake, without a past the “self’ you believe real could NOT be known. Although the dream seems to show you changing circumstances and situations, the chaotic foundation of the self never changes. It is always chaos and from this you make decisions that merely perpetuate that foundation.

Let go of every purpose you would establish for every experience you encounter and learn the TRUTH that it will reveal ONLY when you surrender what you think it SYMBOLIZES. You have yet to recognize the deep peace that will envelop you when you engage the symbols of your dream without expectation, without hope and, hence, without fear. Expectations and hopes born of fear merely perpetuate suffering by repeating the past.

YOU were NOT created to formulate expectations from what you would hope is “true.” You were created to experience the pure certainty of TRUTH. Yet, nothing you now hope for will allow that light to shine on you, because “hope” born of the past fears, keeps you shrouded in darkness. You have the God given potential to SEE. Yet, nothing can be seen in darkness.

In your “world” you invest your hopes in a reality which only symbolizes the fragmentation born of FEAR. There is nothing you need hope for in God’s world, because everything you need is provided in pure certainty and nothing in your world will show you that until you accept it as TRUE.

Surrender all your hopes and have FAITH only in certainty.

Infinite and Unimaginable Joy

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 16:52:00 +0000

M: If this is a “dream” why do I have so many problems to deal with? It’s like I just go from one problem to the next.

J: A dream can have NO problems, being ONLY a dream.

Failing to see this is your only problem. Seek out every “problem” you can find and immediately recognize it is solved.

M: You want me to look for problems?

J: Is that NOT what you do? Do you not superimpose the past upon a future in fear of the present? You lament those you claim as “addicted,” but find you own incessant need to repeat your suffering completely acceptable.

M: Problems just pop-up. I don’t seek them out.

J: FEAR compels you to make repetition REAL and the world never fails to demonstrate what you wish to SEE until you NO longer wish to see it. The power of your mind is beyond imagining. Yet, when everything it imagines is founded on fear, what you imagine “real,” you will NOT LOVE. Imagine what you could SEE if fear were completely banished from your mind. Imagine what your world would then show you. Imagine what LOVE could give you when you extend beyond what you now imagine as “popping up.”

Nevertheless, at present, you continue to endure your own self-imposed moratorium on imagination. From large intractable problems to inconsequential and petty annoyances, life is a tedious repetition, interspersed with episodes of hope that "things may one day get better." Unless you choose another guide, fear will accompany you to the grave, because its only purpose is to take you “there.”

Make no mistake, in any moment that you do not experience UNIMAGINABLE joy, then you have IMAGINED fear as guide and everywhere you look, fear will show you ONLY what it teaches, and you will learn ONLY that.

M: Unimaginable joy??? So I should feel joy when I’m sick?

J: It is never too late to double back and correct what was DECIDED in error, since clearly sickness is indicative of a poor choice. Just as cause precedes effect, your goals MUST always precede what you experience. Sickness is only an effect of the goal that caused it. Recognize your goal is in error and simply correct it.

However, you MUST first recognize the error, because there is NOTHING that comes to you against your willingness that it be received.

M: I still cannot comprehend that all the recent shit that has piled up on me is purely of my doing. That is beyond my ability to understand.

J: Presently, understanding is not necessary, but the acceptance born of FAITH is crucial to changing the dream. You do NOT understand the world you have made “real” but, ironically, you do have faith in it being “real.” Faith arising from error made it real, but only for you. I ask that you have faith that you have perceived in error.

What you have imagined “real” is astounding and beyond ALL logic. Yet, it only attests to the incredible power of your THINKING. You have imagined real an entire “world” and then made that world the cause of your imagining, simply as means of denying GOD.

You have made your ‘self’ God, then punish yourself for your arrogance and impunity by demanding the world claim guilt for your “birth.” This is insane. Yet, you DO believe it.

M: You want me to have no desires, no dreams, hopes or goals. You want me to live as if I were not me. This is impossible!

J: Have you not yet tired of your choices? Choices that lead no closer to freedom each and every time one is made? Are you not yet exhausted from your repetitive efforts to achieve some sense of consistent “happiness”? Have you not yet learned that you have no basis for which to make such choices?

What you accept as “natural” is completely absurd. There is nothing natural about your world because there is nothing natural to a mind severed from TRUTH. It is deluded and what delusion sees cannot be TRUSTED and you will NOT love what you do NOT trust. You do NOT love your world. If you could only recognize the infinite peace that will overcome you once you give up your DISTRUST.

Let your world come to you of its own accord and accept what you receive in the realization that you could NOT decide otherwise. This will provide you the opportunity to experience change.

The experience of a complete and total break with all forms of fear is beyond your ability to imagine, only because every FORM you experience is imagined from fear. Fear has determined the FORM of everything in your “world.” Form has NO other purpose but to impose limits and your world demonstrates nothing but limitation.

Understand that the forms cannot touch you, for you have only imagined them.

M: So I can run out in front of a Mac truck and it’ll pass right through me?

J: If you could ONLY imagine it, then it could ONLY be true. What you experience is a poverty of imagination that can look NO further because it is stifled by fear. However, as fear recedes imagination yields to ever greater awareness which only perpetuates ever greater degrees of joy. Your joy is not yet infinite and continues to be limited by the FORMS you imagine “real.” You identify your ‘self’ with a poverty of imagination, born of a mind that fears itself.

Soon, however, you will let loose from your resistance and new experiences will happen very rapidly. You will imagine things beyond what has been THOUGHT “real” up to now. You are beginning to see how tightly you hold to your conditions. You are beginning to sense there might be another way. Yet, you are still haunted by the fear of sacrifice and clutch rigidly to what you see. There is much you have imagined that you refuse to let go.

M: I could let go of my attachment to many things. But there is still much that I don’t yet want to give up because it’s needed.

J: Only because you do NOT yet believe there is another way and another world in which NOTHING IS “needed.” You have the means of seeing differently, if you would only release yourself from fear. There is much I wish to show you. But you refuse to look and I cannot MAKE you see. As a guide, I can only show the way. You must choose to follow.

M: So how do I let go of fear?

J: First you must recognize that you fear EVERYTHING because, if EVERYTHING is not cause for consistent joy, then it must be fear within that looks out.

M: I don’t fear my dog.

J: Again, if what you perceive is not cause for consistent joy, then sight is afflicted by fear. This is the only “rule” necessary to understand the means of dissolving fear. You needn’t worry about the forms through which fear is experienced, as you have made them too countless to consider.

M: Well, I’m not exactly experiencing joy right now. But I don’t feel fearful either.

J: If fear is the foundation, then joy has nowhere to stand. Fear has determined your perception for much too long.

M: There’s just nothing for me to be joyful about right now.

J: Seeking a cause from the world only reinforces fear. Experience extracted from a “world” only denies your origin and makes you victim to a “world” that did NOT create YOU. I teach be joyful that it is ONLY a dream. Teach this to others and experience it for yourself.

M: How do I teach people this is only a dream, when I don’t believe it myself?

J: Teach it to learn it.

M: If it’s a dream, then what difference would it make what I did?

J: If the dream is yours, then what you do TO it, you do TO yourself. This must be understood before you can awake from the dream.

Dissolving Conditions Preemptively

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 10:54:00 +0000

M: I do not have the ability to love unconditionally. There are some people I just flat out don't like. This stuff you teach is impossible to apply in the world.

J: I teach only your mind, for “there” is where all conditions reside and not in a “world.” You must first dissolve the conditions derived from your own fear, before your world will demonstrate peace. Any grievance held against another merely applies further conditions to what is not "there."

M: So the world is in my mind?

J: Where else do you experience it?

M: But I have very little control over those experiences, because they occur outside my mind.

J: Nothing leaves the mind. Full control is contingent on your learning this above all else. Until then, you will believe you are under the control of what is experienced, allowing a denial of responsibility. There is nothing outside your mind. Nothing enters and nothing leaves. Everything remains firmly within you, waiting for YOU to see it as such. See the wholeness of that and be relieved of the suffering experienced from separate parts.

M: What do you mean “see the wholeness”? How do I do that?

J: Accept the WHOLENESS of what you experience by relieving it of what it means to you and see the interdependent connection between all the parts of your dream. It is the meanings you apply to the images you experience that denies you the freedom of seeing it all at once. Such a sweeping vision will leave you breathless, but only for the moment it takes to realize that truth is not a part of your dream.

Do NOT dismiss even the tiniest, most insignificant experience to show you this wholeness.

If you look to the parts to explain the dream, you will misinterpret your ‘self’ as other than dreamer. This is why you now SEE your dream as REALITY.

M: How can I possibly be aware of everything?

J: You need NOT seek out. I merely ask that you NOT DISMISS. Every miniscule speck that seems to arise into awareness by chance, comes to you of your own volition and it was DECIDED long before the experience appeared. This is how you have made your world.

Nothing comes to you by accident and nothing you experience is victim to chance.

M: How can I not judge what I experience in order to make decisions? Things have to be decided.

J: This is why you must decide BEFORE experience. The goal MUST be decided prior to every situation.

Your mind must be trained to dissolve conditions preemptively.

Otherwise, your experiences will continue to demonstrate that you are victim to “chance,” because ALL goals you determine must take chance into account. Do not consider chance any longer. It does not exist.

M: I have no idea what’s going to happen until it happens and even when I do hope for something to happen a certain way, it rarely ever does happen as I hope.

J: Hope that is victim to chance is a weak idea with little power to alter the dream. Because you believe in chance, your “hope” must always be victim to those conditions. Hence, there is always the belief it may not turn out as you would like and this merely gives CHANCE the power to prove itself in CONTROL.

There is nothing that happens in your world by chance. Believe this and take responsibility for every opportunity to HEAL. This allows you the ability to achieve a sense of peace in your dream that will only alter the conditions you have imposed.

Your goal is merely to fully engage your dream in the recognition that chance plays no part in your experiences. Do NOT allow the ego to teach you by remaining aware of the goals you “hope” for, simply let them go. They were built on the foundation of ever shifting sands, that only chance can provide.

M: You’re just saying that everything happens for a reason.

J: Just not any “reason” you could choose.

M: So I should live my life with no hope of anything?

J: Hope of awakening to your salvation brought me to YOU, because it is derived from CERTAINTY, although you continue to see it as merely a chance possibility, if possible at all. My voice lends credence to that certainty because I am a product of it. Your hope of anything other than this must remain victim to CHANCE.

M: Well, if you know everything with certainty, then why don’t you just tell me what to do all the time?

J: This is what you have called on me to do. Why then, do you fail to LISTEN?

M: Because I don’t believe in the certainty of you.

J: But it is certain that you will, because it is the only certainty you will ever KNOW. Your only goal in every situation is to rely on that alone. Your ultimate FREEDOM rests upon this foundation because it is much stronger than anything “hope” could ever bring.

The freedom inherent to God’s certainty is insured and grants the power to move mountains. This power rests with YOU and it is certain you will KNOW it when you surrender your HOPE for what you think you NEED instead of what is ALREADY given.

I Will React For You

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 17:38:00 +0000

M: So how long do I have to experience this pain in my chest?

J: Until you recognize your complete and absolute innocence. Yet, as long as they are guilty, so must you be. Free them and you free yourself. Make no mistake, all emotional pain is your determination to bind someone to your conditions.

M: I don’t even know what I’m guilty of!

J: You dream of a world absent LOVE and such a “world” will always be guilty of proving what you demand be “real.” That is its only purpose and it will never veer from the direction you EXPECT. Such is the immense and infinite power of your mind. Yet, you have used that power to dream of ABSENCE and loss. You cannot escape the power of your mind, because you did NOT create it. However, you can learn to use it for its intended purpose.

God’s world proves ONLY love and ONLY the innocent can SEE it.

M: I will never believe I made reality.

J: You have “made” your dream a reality. You have split responsibility in two, giving to your world what you do not wish to claim for yourself. I teach that you are fully responsible for ALL of it.

You will only learn this by changing how you REACT to what you have denied. Not one part of your world is free of you, nor is any part of you apart from it. Accept every part as yours and free it from guilt. It is guilty of nothing because it provides ONLY what you are determined to see.

M: So how do I take responsibility for my reactions?

J: You believe responsibility lies not in the experience, but ONLY the reaction do you accept as yours. You have spent your life learning to perfect your reactions to chance. To learn that you are fully responsible for experience you must surrender ALL responsibility for reaction to ME.

The interval between experience and reaction you call “time.” IN time, your reaction has the capacity to teach you that your experiences are delusional, because there is NO separation between what you experience and how you react. Yet, only if you give ALL your reactions to me, can you learn this as TRUE.

You can only react through fear, because your fear made the experience “real” before the reaction entered your mind. I KNOW that ALL your experiences are delusional and, hence, I have NO fear. A changed reaction MUST alter experience, because you will no longer respond from what you think is true, but from what I KNOW is true. I know that, although NOTHING you experience is TRUE, NOTHING is based on chance.

M: In order to take responsibility, I have to allow you to judge my experiences for me?

J: In order to learn YOU are responsible, you must close the gap between what you experience and how you react. I will help you.

In a world you react to as “real,” there is no teacher free of your fear. I am not OF your world, because I have transcended the very fear that made it ALL possible. Why else would you have called on me, if you did not believe this were TRUE?

When you learn that ALL experience is a unified whole, ALL your experiences will be free of fear and you will react miraculously.

M: I can’t trust you, simply because you’re in my head.

J: If ALL experience is in your “head,” the most effective teacher must be there as well. How else will you learn to trust yourself, if not by trusting ALL your experiences to provide the TRUTH that is always with YOU? In the realization that ALL experience resides within you, there can be NOWHERE else to turn. This is an experience of great joy, because it means you are FREE.

M: But I thought you said it was only a dream.

J: And when you KNOW this, why would you NOT trust ALL your experiences to teach you this without fail?

M: What about my experiences of other people.

J: “Other people” clearly serve a profound purpose. Yet, you refuse to accept that purpose and so your experiences fail to teach the TRUTH. Accept that purpose and be saved. The reason you have NOT accepted me, is that you do NOT accept them. That is their ONLY purpose.

M: I believe they are more real than you.

J: Indeed. Yet, even this has not helped you to accept, which only demonstrates that “real” means nothing in your “world.” Accept THEM… and know ME, for I am free of delusion.

M: So their only purpose is for me to accept them?

J: How else would you finally KNOW yourself and why else would you now fail to understand who you are? This is a Law of Mind that you did not legislate and, fortunately, it is beyond your control to change. What you extend into the dream has the power to awaken the whole dream. But it MUST be extended to be KNOWN.

You have imposed conditions to a dream in which all must suffer. You do not wish for this, but you dream it is impossible to change and so, you have accepted this condition instead of those who have the power to SAVE you, because you granted it. Accept them without condition and awaken from the dream.

M: I cannot accept everything that people do.

J: And so guilt must prevail in a dream made mad BY guilt. Only total innocence can set you free to awaken.

M: You’re asking for unconditional love and that’s impossible. No one can do that.

J: No one need but you, because you imposed the conditions that make up your ‘world.” You have set the standards of what possibilities can be imagined and that is exactly what you SEE. If you have constructed the prison, then only you have the power to unlock the gates.

You believe your experiences are victim to CHANCE. However, if you look more closely you will see that every experience you claim to recall, as of a shadowy “past,” has led you to this point. Your learning has always been certain, but your denial of this fact is the sole cause of your suffering through the guilt of being LOST. You are NOT lost, because chance is only a condition of your dream. God’s reality is certain and hence, there can be no CHANCE of being LOST or of losing anything.

Conditions must be imposed when you imagine a “world” governed by the hopelessness of chance. Believe in your certainty and allow not one experience to be governed by the reckless and ungovernable. Recognize every experience as one of necessity and watch the conditions dissolve before your very eyes.

Your awakening is as certain as your CREATION. How could it be otherwise? Believe in that absolute certainty and take joy in what the dream provides, knowing you have granted ALL provisions. It will give you what you need, when you no longer give IT to chance.

M: So if my dream “provides” me with cancer, I should take joy in that?

J: There is no other means of dissolving the limits you provide except by realizing they do NOT limit you. You pick and choose what experiences you would learn this from and this merely delays KNOWING, because every experience holds the promise of awakening. I teach that all experiences have the power to heal centuries of limits when you allow me to react for you. Delay no longer. Each moment of a dream has the potential to wake you to a REALITY well beyond the farthest reaches of any “existence” you could ever dream as “real.”

You Always Get What YOU Need

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 02:37:00 +0000

M: I feel so deeply alone, that it actually feels physically painful.

J: If you continue to rely on your ‘self,’ you will continue to miss the opportunities to heal your pain. All experiences invite healing. Do not decide for your ‘self,’ because you have no idea what you NEED and what you WANT has always failed to heal your suffering.

M: But when I really need you, you’re not there.

J: The union we share is infinitely indivisible. We can never part. I am always “there” and you will know that without doubt when you choose to listen. When you do NOT choose to listen, you will ALWAYS make the wrong choices in the belief that the correct advice was not available. Your world cannot give you that advice and nothing it has ever taught you can help you now.

M: You know why I hurt so bad.

J: Your incessant resistance makes you very hard to love, but your creation made you infinitely lovable. Do not decide for your “self” what any relationship means for you, because of your ‘self’ you could not KNOW and, repeatedly, your suffering is ONLY the belief that you DO. Until you KNOW, every choice made is the wrong choice, because it comes from fear. Fear knows NOTHING but itself and can only chronically replicate what it teaches. It has provided the same lesson for centuries and can teach nothing else.

Love knows NO proximity. No space or time. What it teaches is eternal, because it has no finite boundaries and is conditioned upon nothing but your decision TO love. When you think of her, do not think of what you gave up or lost, but think of what you gained and you have gained more than you are prepared to recognize at present. Yet, have faith that I see what you currently cannot. It will be shown to you when you are ready to SEE.

What you determine as loss, is always a success. However, what you claim as successful, merely keeps you lost. Those who cannot make such determinations on their own require guidance.

M: But that won’t bring her back. That won’t correct the mistakes I made.

J: No mistakes are made, only failed interpretations of success. I told you before that your every move is certain. There can be NO mistakes in the certainty of TRUTH and nothing that is REAL, is ever free of that condition. Why resist what is certain? Wouldn’t you rather learn from it?

It is certain that you would be here now and suffering through that which you have suffered through countless times before. Each situation seems different but, if you look closely, you will recognize that the suffering is ALWAYS the same.

You are getting closer to the full realization that you have no idea what you NEED. This will open you up to guidance. However, because of your resistance, we are not quite there yet, as you continue to guide your ‘self’ believing I am absent.

I am always with you. Seek me out before any decision is made, so that I can assure you of its certainty.

M: I cannot tell the difference between you and my own ramblings.

J: You will know my voice, because your heart will sing from every message given. Yet, it may not come as “words.” Messages await all your senses, when you are open to guidance. But do not await the message you look to receive. Receive the message that is given you to SEE. When you are fully open to guidance, such are the messages you will rejoice in.

M: Right now I’m sitting out a hurricane. What message is that?

J: That soon your suffering MUST end. Do you see that?

M: No.

J: Then you look to receive a message that cannot be given, because it is NOT what you WANT. What you think you WANT is never what you NEED. This MUST become apparent to you before you will actually ask and receive what you WANT.

You must know what you want before it can be given. The reason you have yet to know what you WANT is because you have NO idea what you NEED. As a result, when you find what you NEED, and you ALWAYS do, you throw it away, thinking it is NOT what you WANT. Only then do you realize, not long after, that it was indeed NEEDED.

You are at this juncture once again and you will be here many more times, until you decide that you DO NOT KNOW. When that decision is made, everything will come to you as NEEDED, because it is what you WANT.

All you have ever wanted, above all your mad chattering, is to find the deep and abiding peace of God. You have not found that peace because you mistrust those who show you the way. You believe it is NOT what you want and so, you are deeply in NEED of it right now. Accept that you do NOT know the way and the way will be shown.

M: Will I ever find love

J: If that is what you NEED, then you will have what you WANT. But there cannot be opposition, else one can only negate the other and you will have what you have now. Is love what you need or have you lost sight of it because of what you want?

M: I thought it was. Then I thought it wasn’t, but now I believe it is. I guess I really don’t have any idea what I want or need.

J: Hold firmly to the thought that you DO NOT KNOW.

Contemplate it fully and consider it very deeply. When you finally give up deciding, the knowledge will come to you. However, if you do NOT yet know, then you still believe you can decide on your own and, hence, understanding will escape you entirely. KNOWING comes very simply from recognizing that you DO NOT KNOW. There is NO other way to accept God’s message than to decide that immediately. When that decision is finally made, and made fully, everything you NEED to know will become instantly apparent and your world will show it to you and you will rejoice in what you see.

M: So I just need to believe that I don’t know what anything is for? That’s it?

J: Yes, it is a very simple thing. Nevertheless, this simple task you resist with the gravitational force of ten trillion suns.

M: But it means giving up control of my life!

J: It means giving up control of your suffering. This is all your “life” has ever been, a dream in which the dreamer dreams he is at the mercy of forces beyond his control. A dream in which, decisions made, only keep the dreamer dreaming the mad idea that awakening is impossible.

M: So I shouldn’t decide to take vitamins or eat right? I shouldn’t decide to go to work or pay my bills?

J: Do anything you decide, but make no decisions out of fear. You must learn the difference.

M: It still hurts…

J: Do NOT run from your success by seeing it as failure. You do NOT know the difference. You have asked to learn. Do not decide for yourself what need be taught.

M: So I will always get what I need?

J: Always, without fail, no matter how you define it in the moment it comes. See everything as NEEDED and learn from the lessons that are meant ONLY for you

Only a Dream (pt.2)

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Sat, 13 Aug 2011 12:11:00 +0000

M: It’s damn near impossible to interact with the world as if it were a dream.

J: So the ego informs you, as it MUST. It cannot possibly see it as ONLY a dream, because its very existence is contingent on the dream being “real.” The eyes of the body cannot help a “self” that demands the body define IT. Your goal is to see beyond what the body’s eyes show you, because what the eyes see is not “there,” nor are there "eyes" that SEE.

It must no longer matter, because the body is as much a dream as the eyes that seem to prove the “world” REAL. If everything that you are aware of is ONLY a dream, all must be included and nothing excluded from that WHOLE. If the world is ONLY a dream, your body is also a part of that and, hence, the “self” that believes it is a body is itself ONLY a dream.

M: So how do I interact with a dream? If my life is a dream, how do I then live it?

J: Fear makes it REAL. There is NO reason to fear a dream, simply because it is NOT real. You have NO idea of what you would experience if you were free of all fear. This is impossible for you to comprehend because your “self” is nothing more than an aggregate of fearful THOUGHTS.

Therefore, to be absent ALL fear would result in your experiencing an absence of “self” and this is terrifying to you. I teach that God did not create a void. You voided what God created in your mind and replaced it with the meaningless. I assure you that when you dissociate from ALL your meanings you will not experience emptiness, but will be filled with indescribable joy.

M: I just dreamed up my children?

J: The ego manufactures experiences in the dream that support its being more than ONLY a dream. YOU must learn that it is ONLY a dream and this includes all the parts you have invested meaning in. You invest in many attachments and associations as meaningful. You must see them as ONLY a dream. Otherwise, you will sabotage your efforts to awaken by remaining victim to what is ONLY a dream.

The parts you “love” will hurt you and you will seek revenge and retribution, because love is not possible in a dream. Yet, it is much easier to forgive, when it is ONLY a dream. When the dream is forgiven in its entirety, you will awaken to your REALITY.

You are invulnerable to attack when it is ONLY a dream. You are free to engage all parts without fear, because, when you have come to realize it is ONLY a dream, you will no longer FEAR any part of what is NOT real.

When you understand that it is ONLY a dream, you will dance joyfully upon the stars until the sun rises and you reach out to embrace it. It is your dream, my brother, and it can be whatever you choose, because it is ONLY a dream.

M: Then how do I manipulate the dream to make it what I want it to be?

J: You can rule the dream, simply by allowing no part of it to rule YOU. Nothing more than this is necessary. You must see that no part of the dream can hurt you, nor have you need to protect from attack in what is ONLY a dream.

M: So when can I stop paying taxes?

J: When the whole is denied, the parts are free to victimize. Parts detached from the whole have lost purpose and engage in meaningless, chaotic pursuits. This is what your dream shows you. See it in WHOLE and the parts will fall away from your own awareness, because they are no longer detached from the whole and no longer need suffer through the purposeless activities that you have assigned. Until you see the whole as ONLY a dream, you will be antagonized by the parts in the mistaken belief that they can affect you.

M: Nobody else in the world acts as if this is a dream.

J: God did not create separate, disconnected parts. Only that which THINKS it can detach from TRUTH could “dream” of such a thing. Yet, it is ONLY a dream and TRUTH remains unchanged by your dreaming. When you awake, that will become immediately apparent. The only true joy you will ever experience IN your "world," is in realizing the TRUTH that you are not “there.”

M: So nobody is real? I dreamed them all up?

J: You are not “real.”

A mind dreaming it can be victimized by other separate minds, must learn to SEE what is NOT there in order to free itself from what it dreams can be done TO it. This is how it learns that everything done TO it is done BY itself.

M: Then why even bother posting this stuff on the internet, if my mind is the only mind?

J: To teach your “self” that the thoughts “you” think are no more “real” than the body you believe contains you, the world that you inhabit or the “people” that make up that “world.”

Thoughts that seek to represent and describe a dream world are as much a part of that dream as the images that seem to move around in it. The dream is no less whole than the TRUTH that you will awake to. The only difference is that the dream is NOT TRUE, but ONLY a dream.

I ask that you see the dream in its wholeness, so you are no longer victimized by disparate parts that can only oppose one another. Until you do, your thoughts about others are no more real than the images you see and claim as representing other minds. You are not “here,” nor are your thoughts, images, beliefs; nothing is “here,” because it is ONLY a dream.

A belief in “your” mind, as separate from the wholeness of truth, is as delusional as the belief in “other” separate minds thinking separate thoughts. Believing that your mind is “the only mind” is no less delusional than believing in other minds. There are no other minds, nor is there a mind that belongs exclusively to you.

M: Whatever happened to “I think, therefore I am”?

J: You have yet to THINK and, until you do, the thoughts you now worship will continue to demonstrate to you that you are delusional. You are dreaming and your thoughts are part of that. In fact, they are ALL of it. There is nothing else.

M: Well then, this discussion is a dream also. If my mind is delusional then so are you.

J: I am just your attempt at remembering amidst a soon to be forgotten dream. when you awake, I will be gone, because you will see that WE are one. When you awake, none of this will matter. None of it will have even “existed,” since there will not be a “time” when it could have been real.

The dream is exhausting you. You are very tired of dreaming that you ARE what you could NEVER be. Waste not a moment more of your precious mind on dreaming. Wake up and SEE the real world that God created in your name.

You are still there and God is waiting.

Only A Dream (pt.1)

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:01:00 +0000

M: I worry that learning all this will paralyze me into complete inactivity.

J: You are learning that what you “do” has NO value. The “self” that demands value fights vigorously against this as a viable choice, because if its world has NO value, then neither does IT.

A dream can be whatever you want it to be, but NO part of it is valued, because you recognize it as ONLY a dream. To be “paralyzed” in a dream means you have failed to recognize it as ONLY a dream and, as a result, the dream controls you.

I simply teach that although you choose to be controlled by a dream, it is still ONLY a dream and you can choose to SEE it differently.

As I have said before, you can do anything you choose. However, every choice asserts VALUE and what you value you will idolize as “real” and forget that it is all ONLY a dream.

In a dream, there is no right or wrong choice, simply because ALL of it is ONLY a dream. No choice is more or less important than another, because every choice is made IN a dream.

The only real choice to be made is to awaken.

M: Well, this world may be nothing more than a dream but, in my dream, I have to make choices.

J: Make every choice in a dream, prove to you it is ONLY a dream.

M: I can’t just make valueless choices. In my "dream," I have to work to pay bills. My body has needs and must be fed and kept healthy. I have responsibilities and certain duties that I just can’t ignore.

J: You have idolized these choices as “real” and, hence, the dream controls you.

M: If I knew I were dreaming, much of it I wouldn’t do at all. I would simply change the dream.

J: Then why do you not do so?

M: Obviously, because I don’t believe it’s a dream. The world is real!

J: Indeed, choices become valued as necessary in a world interpreted as “real.” Your only option is to alter that interpretation. You have tried to make perception fit your plans.

You have given great value to specific parts of what you perceive, while attempting to devalue other parts. You have tried to deny and ignore. You have applied progressively greater control to what you perceive, often through anger and attack. You have cried tears of despair and begged the world to give you what you need. You have used chemicals to numb yourself to what you perceive and have sought to overhaul your constant suffering through idolizing pleasurable experiences.

Nevertheless, nothing has yet mitigated your suffering. None of these measures have worked and, if they have provided any relief at all, only a brief time elapses until your misery rises again to consume your mind. What more can you do? What other “choices” are left to you?

ALL of the options you have so far chosen demand your world be “real.” You have done many things to end your suffering in the dream, except realize it IS a dream and this is the only option left to you. I recommend you choose the only option that is guaranteed to work without fail.

M: So I should just tell myself every day that it is all “only a dream”? How will that help me to change the dream?

J: When you know it is ONLY a dream, the dream no longer controls you. Yet, you must recognize it ALL as ONLY a dream. No part of what is ONLY a dream can be of more or less importance than any other part. Otherwise, you will idolize specific parts as valuable and what is assessed as valuable becomes more “real” for you. This is the dream you now believe, and suffer accordingly, as “real.”

M: So I should not feel happy about some parts or sad about others? You want me to live a flat and emotionless existence.

J: On the contrary, I ask that you engage ALL of it with great joy and in deep abiding peace. I ask that you recognize that you do not “exist” IN a world. The world exists IN you.

M: So I should be joyful about war?

J: I simply recommend the means of escaping enslavement to what you believe “real.” You made war “real” because, in your dream, some parts are to be feared and hated. In your dream, some parts must be destroyed, else you believe they will destroy you. In your dream, you CAN be destroyed.

Accept it all as ONLY a dream and realize your infinite invulnerability.

To fully understand and SEE this is to experience a JOY that is beyond anything you have experienced or could even imagine experiencing. It is a freedom that offers infinite peace and a love that will encompass every part of your mind. For in this VISION is the realization that ALL suffering has never been “real” and, in understanding this, you can NEVER suffer again.

Yet, there is still another world for you to see. However, no “eyes” will show it to you because IT IS REAL. Words from the dream cannot describe its utter beauty and, hence, I cannot tell you what you will experience because there are no “dream words” that fit such a description.

Although, your dreaming does not suffice to keep you much longer from this experience. Because you REMEMBER, and have NOT forgotten, you have asked me to teach you again what you have always KNOWN.

It is only a breath away from you and waits patiently for you to accept its VISION.

But first, you must accept it is ONLY a dream and that is all that is needed to AWAKEN.

Bless What You Made Real

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 01:48:00 +0000

M: Sometimes I get very tired of all this.

J: What I teach denies your egocentricity as TRUE and the self-concept you have come to rely on for EVERYTHING will strenuously resist that which denies its reality. This resistance completely exhausts you. Nevertheless, it will continue to fight against TRUTH until you are no longer AWARE of its resistance.

Then, you will NO longer rely on it for ANYTHING and you will be free of EVERYTHING.

M: It’s like now I find myself fucking up more than ever. I don’t believe I’m making any progress.

J: You still expect "progress" to demonstrate a reduction in some egocentric behaviors with an increase in others. Yet, this expectation is still contingent on a delusional self-concept that is totally ego-centered and looking for something that IT cannot find no matter how hard it tries. Hence, you have no means for which to measure progress. Allow me to measure it for you.

M: Well, have I made any progress yet?

J: In relation to your “world” none whatsoever.

In relation to God, your work is DONE.

M: But shouldn’t I see some results of being done?

J: The self-concept you invented demands “results.” Yet, because it is completely delusional, it will not SEE that your work is done and nothing more is needed.

It MUST always perceive a lack of progress no matter how much progress is actually made. No matter how far along you might be, every journey that begins IN your world must end IN death, because this is the ONLY progress your “world” offers.

Knowing this, does it make any sense in seeking truth IN your world?

Your “world” has NO awareness of TRUTH simply because it was made specifically to deny God and every specific detail you see is proof of that denial.

M: But I thought you said that I will see change in the world as I change?

J: Accept that you have made progress and SEE it!

Give to your world the TRUTH that the work is DONE. There is nothing more for you to do, because there was never anything that needed to be done. Your journey was accomplished, long before it began and your world can show you that, if you did NOT refuse to SEE.

M: But you’ve said that I have made no progress in the world.

J: In relation to the purposes you have given the world, what progress would you expect to see in relation to TRUTH? Do you expect the world to demonstrate that it has NO meaning or purpose? Yet, this is what you MUST see, for only it is TRUE.

Demonstrate to your world that this is TRUE and finally SEE its purpose.

M: I need a sign. Something to show me that I’m moving in the right direction.

J: Then arrange for the world to provide for that “sign.” Change its purpose and allow for what you wish to SEE. Bless, rather than FEAR, your world and it will easily and joyously bend itself to fulfill that purpose. In fact, it does nothing less than begs for this purpose to be given it.

Until then, it will continue to meet the purposes you intend to expect, because you have arranged it so.

M: I don’t have that kind of power. This is crazy!

J: And your powerlessness is demonstrated as expected and everywhere you look you find proof.

In your world, communicating with TRUTH must be “crazy,” because not one ounce of TRUTH is “there” to be found and this is why progress is ALWAYS expected, but NEVER seen. In fact, you believe your world seems to demonstrate a “regression.” Therefore, this is what you SEE as expected. You have commented on this to yourself many times. Why should you not see what you believe "true"?

M: But it’s not what I want to be true.

J: You receive as you ask. Therefore, if you SEE it, it must be WANTED. But you must ask yourself, why would you want it?

M: The world is going to hell in a hand basket. I have nothing to do with that. I’m not a world leader, just one person. What power do I have??

J: Only the power granted you by God, which is more than your world can withstand without changing completely and at once. It is yours NOW and NO progress need be made to achieve or attain what was granted YOU through your Creation.

You were not "born" IN a world, the world was born IN you.

M: So all I need do is “bless” the world. What exactly does that mean?

J: Free it from every purpose you ever demanded from it and then held against it when it failed to meet your expectations.

The world has NOT failed you, only the purposes you gave it, and continue to demand, fail you. They are not its purpose, nor are they yours. The purpose of the world is to be FREE of it. This is its one and only purpose.

M: Yeah, when I die.

J: Death is a purpose you gave the world that enslaves you to it. All other purposes you invent are contingent on this one FALSE premise. Every action performed, ever behavior you carry out, every goal or objective, is directly associated with your belief in a finite existence. Your world would be very different IF there were NO death because, in your world, your ONLY purpose IS to die.

This is why you hate what you have made, refuse to bless it and, hence, see it destroying itself before your very eyes. The tears of the world are yours.

The world suffers from what you have made of it and nothing more than that. FREEDOM from what you have made is contingent on blessing what you have made…

…and nothing less than that can ever wipe the tears of the world from your eyes.

The Planned Obsolescence Of Your World

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 00:41:00 +0000

M: So if I’m sick, I shouldn’t go to a doctor?

J: The meaning you have applied to the body prior to sickness, subsequently determined sickness as a viable choice for the body.

The cascade of choices that now burdens you, evolved from the choice to make the body define what you ARE. Therefore, because of that fundamental choice, hence, you now have NO choice, but to be victimized by the body.

M: I don’t see any way that choice can be changed.

J: When you no longer SEE other bodies, you will learn to look beyond your own.

M: How can I interact with others if I do not see their body?

J: You have NOT “interacted” at all if a body is what you SEE. You have given meaning to images in your mind and that is what you interact with based on your specifications. Your superficial association to these concepts, has done nothing to save you from a hell of your own making.

However, you have encountered the spark of clear vision before. Yet, it was incomprehensible to a mind that demands only bodies CAN communicate and so, obviously, it was missed completely by your mind.

Until you see this spark in “them,” you will not experience it in yourself.

M: So Bodies should be meaningless to me? Including my own?

J: Little brother, your world only “exists” for you to see BEYOND it. It serves NO other purpose. Free “them” from the body and you free yourself. How can you claim “freedom,” while still seeing them in chains? Your mind holds them bound to what you would have them be FOR you.

You cannot experience heaven and still SEE hell.

M: How do I see this “spark” you talk about?

J: Look for nothing else.

M: But I don’t know what I’m looking for.

J: But you do SEE what you expect and this is what you always “look for.” Expect MORE and you will receive as you ask.

It is what you now look for, and SEE, that obstructs vision entirely. Surrender what “they” mean for you and vision will return. You are blinded by your own meanings. You fear the meaningless and immediately press your meanings into what you believe would be emptiness if you did NOT give it meaning.

God did not create a void and you need not fear chaos from what is devoid of ALL meaning. God filled the void with the meaning of TRUTH and that is YOUR meaning. Do not waste it, by associating with the meaningless.

The TRUTH is “there,” waiting to be revealed and all you need do is dissociate from what you believe “true.” This task is so simple that you will be utterly amazed at the freedom experienced when you FINALLY surrender what you think it ALL means.

The horizon is completely shrouded by your chaotic meanings. When you free yourself from these "beliefs," you will see beyond what you now imagine as “real.” It awaits upon a clear horizon, but you must first clear it of the meaningless in order to see the meaning that lies behind what you think is “true.”

Everything you SEE is meaningless and you MUST have faith that, once you let fall away all your shallow meanings and purposes, TRUTH will be made known to you. Infinite freedom is absolutely guaranteed by nature of your CREATION. This is what “Trust in God” really means. God gave you meaning and purpose. You replaced that with many purposes that are ALL meaningless.

You continue to trust in your own egocentric delusions, regardless of the fact that they let you down consistently. You were never meant to live this way. Deep down, beyond all your meanings, you KNOW this to be TRUE.

Your world is meaningless in every detail. Have faith in NONE of it, because your faith only hides the meaningless you superimpose upon the images of your mind.

M: I thought you said that relationships were meaningful?

J: Not as “you” define them and you define them as demanding bodies, because this is what you believe you ARE. If you do not know your purpose, how could you possibly understand the purpose of your relationships? I would suggest that when you think you KNOW, immediately recognize you are WRONG and wait for my answer to guide you.

M: I suppose there is a fear of not being able to function in this world if I come to believe the world is meaningless.

J: Why would “functioning” not improve upon learning that you are NO longer victim to the meanings that you have chosen to victimize you? When you are controlled by the meaningless, you obviously lack purpose and that which lacks purpose must believe in chaos, thereby, consigning itself to oblivion.

Believe that you are now…nowhere. NOTHING can exist, while being nowhere. Yet, you can free your “self’ from where you believe you ARE, if “where” you are no longer means what you thought it meant.

Your only escape from hell is to see it not “there.”

M: Everyone else believes it’s true. Everyone else acts as if the world were real!

J: Indeed and these are the images you believe you SEE. However, this allows you the opportunity to finally recognize there is only ONE MIND and a “world” perceived differently by six billion minds could NOT possibly be TRUE. It stands to reason, if it is not TRUE, then it cannot be “real.” Give NO meaning to “their” bodies and free yourself from your own.

You give your “self” many opportunities to understand that what you have made meaningful is simply NOT TRUE. How can what is false be “real,” merely by your giving it meaning? It must continue to be false regardless of what it MEANS to you and when it is NO longer meaningful, you will SEE that clearly.

SEE this and end ALL victimization from a “world” that you have given ALL meaning. It victimizes you because you have given it that purpose and it never fails to let you down.

M: If I step into moving traffic, I will be killed by a car. There is no other way to spin this.

J: I suggest you closely examine the instrument you use to measure an “outside” world. If the instrument is invalid, then what it measures must be equally WRONG. You employ a “body” to measure your victimization, but fail to see how the body is as delusional as that which it defines as “real” and perceives as meaningful. If the body is NOT real, how can its measurements be accurate?

M: There is absolutely no way I could possibly live as if the body were not real.

J: There is NO denying that the body is very meaningful to you. However, you have made it meaningful in ways that it cannot help you. Use the body for the planned obsolescence you intended.

See it fade before your eyes, because you no longer interact meaningfully with bodies, but with ONE MIND. There are NO relative meanings because there is NO relative world. To engage a relative world, as if you know what it means, is simply to engage nothing at all.

Is it any wonder you feel so deeply and utterly alone? As equally as the body does NOT exist for “them,” it does NOT exist for “you.”

When I gave up the world, TRUTH came to me without a moment’s hesitation. However, I gave up the world by blessing it wholly and completely. This meant that I no longer had anything to fear FROM it and so, it simply disappeared to be replaced by REALITY.

You continue to FEAR annihilation…while I offer you eternity.

M: How do I interact with ONE MIND?

J: Never accept a thought for yourself, because NOT one thought you THINK is true. Carry out your “days” with this ALWAYS in mind and be amazed at where it takes you. Do not fear the meaningless, because it is only your fear that gives it meaning.

Open your “self” to God’s meaning and the meaningless will simply pass from existence and be NO MORE.

Its obsolescence is planned and YOU are part of that plan.

The Surface Ripples of Your Mirage

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 02:32:00 +0000

M: If everything is meaningless, I still don’t understand why I should do anything at all.

J: If everything you SEE is meaningless, and I assure you it is, then it makes NO difference what you “do.”

However, make one choice over another and you have applied, and perceived, meaning where NONE exists…and you will always suffer from your choices. In fact, ALL suffering is nothing more than this.

M: So I should just go through the motions of living and not give a damn.

J: Has your “caring” make any difference to what you SEE? Do the meanings, you superimpose upon your world, make IT a “better place” for you? Do your preferences help or hinder you in extracting “happiness” from your world? Have your choices ever benefited you in achieving consistent “happiness”?

You have no idea of your purpose, but you desperately demand life mean something.

Yet, it is your meanings that have “damned” you to a purposeless life.

M: Sometimes things are good, sometimes not. That’s just how the world works. That’s just the way it is. I can’t change it, I just need to accommodate to the way things are.

J: You have “accommodated” to nothing but your own purposeless insignificance and your world obeys that command and shows you exactly what you ask to SEE.

Even now, you are filled with resentment in preparation for attack. You believe your attacks are justified and meaningful, because of what was “done” to you. However, you see only the surface and have not yet achieved the capacity to see beyond your little fears. If you could see below the surface ripples, you would be instantly relieved by how meaningless and absurd your beliefs really are, making ALL your actions on your “world”complete and utter nonsense.

Under the surface, you would clearly see that nothing could be “done” to you and that you are completely invulnerable to attack.

M: So how do I see deeper?

J: Recognize that nothing on the surface MEANS anything at all.

If you continue to allow the “reality” of surface conditions to distract you, you will not go deeper. As long as you give meaning to the surface ripples, you will fail to understand the deeper currents that originate from TRUTH.

M: So I should just pretend that the world doesn’t exist? Just act like it isn’t there at all?

J: It is NOT “there at all.” There is NO need to pretend. Your rendition of the “world” is entirely your own. Therefore, it cannot exist, because what you SEE is a product of FEAR. Your CREATION had absolutely nothing to do with fear, but it has become EVERYTHING to you. Your “world” can only conform to your request.

That is its only purpose.

M: But I see other people share in my “rendition.”

J: Why would they NOT conform to what you demand? You require fear and they obey your command. They may seem to fear in ways that are not of your choosing but, make no mistake, not one “person” in your world is without fear.

Exactly as you command.

M: But they can make up their own minds.

J: NOT in your “world.” In your world, they do as YOU EXPECT.

Have they let you down so far? Do they not meet your expectations?

M: So if I no longer expect fear, they will demonstrate that?

J: They will provide only what you expect. Nothing more, nothing less. If you no longer expect fear from them, why should they continue to provide it?

M: Because they make their own choices. I don’t tell anyone what to think! They do what they want!

J: It matters NOT what “they do,” because you only SEE what you expect to SEE.

What you expect to SEE is fear and “they” never fail to meet that NEED. That is the purpose you have given them and the meaning you seek to find. You always find what you seek, because your seeking demands it be THERE to be found.

The mind perceives everything IT makes as “real,” because it was made TO be perceived. You only PERCEIVE what you give meaning to and you gave it meaning in order to PERCEIVE it as “there.”

Even though it is ONLY a mirage, a thirsty man will perceive the oasis BECAUSE he desires water. If he was not dying of thirst he would SEE nothing, because nothing is “really” there.

The mirage you make real, was made to support death. When you no longer BELIEVE in death, the mirage you made to support death will simply vanish. What you will SEE then is beyond imagining, because what you now imagine is a world of death that has become very “real” for you.

You will not seek out the meaningless and so you make meaning were none exists. Nevertheless, images made from fear are made to fail, because fear is meaningless. What God Creates does NOT fail.

M: So I should not expect anything from anybody, because everybody is a mirage?

J: You can expect anything you desire. Yet, oddly, what you now desire is fear. Hence, this is what you SEE. Why choose to see fear and war, when you could just as easily choose love and peace?

M: I just don’t believe I have that kind of a choice.

J: And the world reflects this belief. In your world, “belief” is a useless commodity. Your only choice is FAITH, because ALL belief is delusional.

You made the mirage “real” and then determined the mirage created you. Yet, if it is a mirage then, just as there can be NO death, there could never have been a “birth” either.

It is ALL equally meaningless. Not one tiny molecule holds ANY meaning or purpose. SEE it as such and learn its purpose.

If the mirage did NOT create you, then your belief that it did is an error of epic proportions.

However, it is still an error that can be corrected if you will allow me to show you how. But first you must let go ALL that you find meaningful. You cannot pick out parts of a mirage as true, while others are false. It is the belief that you can, which keeps you invested in delusion.

You cannot determine true from false because the basic foundation of all you SEE is completely deluded and every guide you choose within the delusion is merely another rendition of your own mirage.

Only a guide from outside the delusion can lead you OUT of delusion.

Have FAITH in me, my brother…

The World Will Save You. But First You Must Set It Free

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 10:38:00 +0000

M: You say that my thoughts of anger and attack create my experiences of the world. So when does giving up attack thoughts actually change those experiences?

J: Immediately. Without delay.

M: But that’s not what I experience.

J: Then you still believe holding anger and attack benefits you in some way and this determines what will be experienced. If you no longer embrace anger and attack as having a purpose, then absolute peace must result. Absolute peace is immune to fear and thus, does not experience what has NO purpose.

If absolute peace is not your experience then, although you may not feel angry in any particular moment, attack is held in reserve for when you decide it is necessary.

To believe that you can maintain your defenses AGAINST the world and still experience joy FROM the world is patently absurd. Nevertheless, this is exactly what you believe. You obsessively pursue your “happiness,” completely ignorant of the fact that you are seeking joy, while defending against it.

The world CAN save you, but first you must set it FREE.

This morning you woke with physical pain, which you believe necessitated anger, and reviewing your financial situation also provoked bitterness. Rest assured, you are the CAUSE of it ALL and your attacks can ONLY effect you. You look to various strategies in your world to help alleviate your suffering, but eventually all the “cures” you hope to distract from your suffering must fail, because they merely alleviate the effects while leaving the cause untouched. The effects only change form, but still continue to affect you until the cause has been changed.

I give you the only guaranteed cure. There is no other.

You cannot simultaneously experience war AND peace. You are either deluded or awakened. There is NO in-between state. Although you struggle to pick and choose what you believe will save you, it is ALL OR NOTHING. If there is NOT absolute peace, then there is relative conflict. Believe you have a reason for anger and attack and the world will provide what you expect and you will fortify your defenses against the very foe you ask for and receive as you have asked.

Look at your world. Is it not prepared for attack at all times, even while incessantly promoting a claim for peace? Is this any different than the thoughts that direct you on a daily basis?

M: So you’re saying that the guy who called me a “dickhead,” because I was stuck in traffic and he couldn’t get by, was my fault? I almost yelled “fuck you,” but didn’t. But it was certainly my immediate intention.

J: When you remove ALL fear and attack from your mind, if an attack occurred you would simply NOT realize it. Hence, it would NOT exist for YOU.

This is another way of stating that, since you could NOT know OF it, it simply could NOT occur. Until then, the world will support your need for defenses by always providing what you seek to defend against. The world will serve every purpose you give it and if you wish for attack to be its purpose, it will conform to those specifications with complex exactitude. Every tiny detail you experience in your “world” MUST conform to your specifications as naturally as a field of wheat bends to the direction of the wind.

M: So you’re saying that if I banished all fear and attack from my mind, I could NOT experience them? Even if they happened?

J: Indeed, how could you experience what you are unaware of when, in fact, it is what you “know” that establishes your experience of a “world”? How could what does NOT exist “happen”? What you are NOT aware of could never “happen” for you, because you would NOT experience it.

Hence, everything you presently experience and “know,” is only experienced because you maintain diligent awareness of a delusional past and everything in your world conforms to this exactly as your MIND commands. When you know TRUTH, delusions will never again be experienced, because TRUTH does NOT conform to anything you “know” from a PAST, because you will NO longer be aware of such a “time.”

Fortunately, TRUTH is eternally free of YOUR delusions.

What you now “know” is war and this is what you have deluded yourself into expecting. Your thoughts conform to this PURPOSE and your world obeys accordingly.

M: So if I just change my mind, the world will change with it?

J: You find this incredible. Yet, just this simple equation has the power to instantly deliver you from your self-imposed HELL. There is nothing more than is necessary to know the Peace of God. There is NO need for complicated scriptures or convoluted ideological premises. There is NOTHING in your world that can save you, since your formulated you world to keep you in HELL. You have given it NO other purpose than that.

The only way to escape the suffering of your world is to COMPLETELY change your mind about it.

Yet, this change must be complete and total, encompassing and embracing everything you SEE. Nothing can be left out of this equation; otherwise, you will pick and choose what suits your preferences and it is what you PREFER that has locked your mind firmly into the suffering you’ve come to expect and receive…exactly as you ask.

M: So I can have no preferences? I can make no choices?

J: Cease to make choices based on your deluded preferences and SEE what the world is really like. Your preferences have blinded you to TRUTH, showing you a deluded world that makes no sense and seems consistently against you. This makes everything you SEE meaningless. God did NOT create you to experience that which is meaningless. Nevertheless, this is what you base your choices on and your ONLY purpose in the world has been to prepare for the attack that you expect MUST come. How can this not be HELL? How can you not suffer from preferring the meaningless to the infinite meaning God has bestowed upon you?

Your “world” is proof that you have NO idea of your TRUE value, because IT holds NO value and you have unequivocally accepted that. I ask that you accept that it is ALL meaningless and be free from your self-imposed hell.

Set the world FREE from your meanings and awaken to the absolute peace of HEAVEN.

Free Your MIND From What "Matters"

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 01:30:00 +0000

M: How can I possibly function in a meaningless world? If the world is meaningless, as you say, why do anything at all?

J: Nothing is ever done. Nevertheless, you often take pride in your accomplishments. It makes NO difference what actions you make the body perform or what behaviors you deem superior to others. You may choose to fully engage or disengage entirely from certain aspects of your “world,” but both decisions must result in suffering, simply because neither decision can give meaning to a “world” empty of ALL meaning.

Suffering originates from the choice to seek meaning where NONE could ever exist. Your world is the result of chaotic actions that have done nothing to alleviate the meaningless and only continue to reinforce what is NOT there. You give it all the meaning it has for you and never do you consider that you could be mistaken in your attributions.

It makes NO difference how you function in a meaningless world, since each engagement with the meaningless must be equally as meaningless as the next.

M: So how do I engage a meaningless world?

J: By realizing that it makes NO difference.

M: But if it makes no difference whether or not I go to work, I would lose my job.

J: What you determine as meaningless in your world only reinforces some other aspect as more meaningful. I teach that it is ALL meaningless.

In a meaningless world, the choice to “work” is as meaningless as the choice NOT to work. ALL actions and inactions in a meaningless world can ONLY remain meaningless. You would not avoid specific actions if you did not feel your avoidance was meaningful. Yet, the choice to disengage certain parts of your world is as meaningless as the choice to engage.

You may continue to twist and bend the meaningless in order to extract some purpose for your ‘self,’ but this only supports your fabricated delusions of a “reality" that is simply NOT there. You will NOT find a purpose in NOTHING, although you have become quite adept at pretending you have made something out of nothing. It is still NOTHING.

M: So what do I do?

J: It does NOT matter. This is the realization that you struggle against every day, in all your attempts to pick and choose what matters to YOU and suffer through what does NOT.

You could choose to stop what you are “doing,” but that would only assert that the something you sought to avoid was meaningful enough to provoke an escape.

Such decisions need not be made and this is the freedom God grants, but you have yet to accept. You were not CREATED to make decisions, but to KNOW. The fact that you continue to make decisions indicates you do NOT KNOW and must continue to suffer through all your meaningless decisions.

M: So I should just continue to do what I’m doing?

J: In a meaningless world, nothing could be done that would make any difference to that world. Changing behavior only gives meaning to the behaviors you discard.

Until you realize that ALL actions are meaningless, you will continue to do much, but will suffer through what is never accomplished. There is NO reason to suffer in a meaningless world when it is SEEN for what it is. Free yourself from your own meanings.

M: There are some things more meaningful to me than others. But, you’re saying none of it matters?

J: It is what “matters” that constructs the world you experience, but only in opposition to what does NOT matter. However, what does NOT matter one day, becomes extremely important the next, while what once mattered is suddenly left behind only to again rise to importance on a later date.

Your changing mind is what determines your changing “world.” Yet, you believe it is a changing world that victimizes you and fail to SEE your part in perpetuating that chaos. Make NO mistake; your part is the only part that IS meaningful. Nevertheless, because you do NOT know your part, you have minimized yourself into petty insignificance and thus, seek for a purpose outside yourself.

Your mind is more powerful than a billion worlds combined, because it is from your mind that ALL worlds are formed and ALL effects conform perfectly to their cause. Free your mind from what “matters” and free your world.

M: But wouldn’t my indifference make things worse? Isn’t indifference the problem with the world.

J: Indifference is impossible to an egocentric mind intent on determining what is right or wrong by demanding thoughts compete against each other.

Indifference means no choice need be made, but you choose between opposites and then claim you are indifferent to one, but always against another. War is IN your mind and not IN your world. By holding one thought in opposition to another, one belief as opposed to another, one image against another, you experience a “world” in chaos. Only one choice can be superior to its counterpart and so, achieve your attention. This only asserts both as “real,” but only when pitted against each other. This is NOT indifference, but ignorance. Ignorance finds meaning where NONE exists and fights to assert its choice as the RIGHT choice. Meaning in your world is always an attack based on opposing choices.

Surrender your right to choose and every choice will be the right choice.

M: But I have to make decisions every day. How can I possibly not make choices?

J: By realizing you do NOT know and allowing the choice be made for you. If you could only let go your demand to decide for your ‘self,’ TRUTH would envelop you like a warm wool blanket on a cold winter day. Set aside the belief that you know right from wrong, what should be done or not done, what is meaningful as opposed to meaningless. Give up the battle and allow yourself to be guided to peace.

You need NOT have faith in what I teach to learn it is TRUE. Simply test it by surrendering faith in what you KNOW as “true” and see what happens. No matter where you are or what you are doing, discard what you think matters and experience the infinite Peace of God.

The Certainty of YOUR Uncertainty

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Mon, 02 May 2011 13:14:00 +0000

M: I cannot ignore the demands of the body and the body will often interfere in receiving your message.

J: Such is the problem as you have arranged it. Yet, Christ Consciousness is simply not affected. In fact, Christ Consciousness SEES the problem ONLY at its cause and ONLY this dissolves the problem instantly. The body is cause of NOTHING. Yet, you see it as cause of everything.

If you could only realize how close you are to the certainty of TRUTH, you would laugh at ALL your bodily complaints.

M: Sorry, but I don’t in any way feel close and I don’t have any idea what “Christ Consciousness” is.

J: This is only because you remain transfixed by your uncertain “ideas.” Make no mistake, your body is nothing more than an idea in doubt and it need not be a problem to your mind, unless you so choose. Christ Consciousness makes NO such choices and thus, experiences NO problems. Christ Consciousness experiences everything as IDEA. It is in complete control because it recognizes itself as SOURCE and ONLY from that recognition, no control is necessary. When you no longer doubt what you are, all problems dissolve instantly. How could they not?

M: So what must I do to achieve Christ Consciousness?

J: There is nothing that need be DONE because there is nothing to “achieve.” Therefore, there is NOW no need to choose.

M: What? How could I do that and continue to function in this world?

J: Allow ALL choices be made for you from CERTAINTY. Christ Consciousness makes no choices because it lives in absolute certainty. In certainty, there is NO NEED to choose. Every thought you think MUST be in the mind, because it has always been certain that you would think it. Therefore, obviously, it follows that every action is performed as it MUST. Certainty is infinite, regardless of your choosing to be uncertain through a delusion of finite “time.” There is no disparity between the certainty of your mind and the body’s acting in accordance with that certainty. In the certainty of Christ Consciousness, no choices NEED be made, because all choices have been made as only they could have been made.

Every choice you have ever made rests as purely in that certainty as the words you type on this page.

M: So if every choice I’ve made was certain, why should I now cease from continuing to make choices?

J: It is certain that you will come to a point in your learning in which choices are seen as unnecessary. NOW it is no longer necessary to make choices, even though unnecessary choices were made before this was certain. However, it is also certain that you will reject certainty and continue to make unnecessary choices in resistance to IT, because you have no comprehension of NOW. Christ Consciousness is certain because it is NOW. Yet, for NOW, you remain uncertain and this is apparent by the choices you THINK you make.

Nevertheless, these choices are NO LESS certain, since certainty does NOT conform to "more" or "less." TRUTH is not absent just because you THINK it is and, because of certainty, you are never… not NOW.

M: So I have to be in the present moment to be in Christ Consciousness?

J: A “present moment” is contingent on there being a “before” and “after," which is no different than "more" or "less." Certainty makes no such distinctions. Therefore, Christ Consciousness can never be a “present moment,” because choices require “time,” while certainty has NO need of it. Delusions ONLY occur when certainty is resisted and your ‘world” is clearly a product of uncertainty.

Yet, the paradox that your uncertainty cannot collapse is that there is NO uncertainty.

M: What if I choose not to resist certainty?

J: It is certain you will make such a choice. Just not… NOW.

M: So when will I be certain?

J: Upon recognizing that there could NEVER be a “time” in which you were uncertain.

M: But I thought you said I was uncertain before now?

J: Uncertainty is delusional and, by nature of that, it does not NOW exist.

M: So I’m delusional?

J: Certainly.

M: These word games of yours are confusing.

J: The “words” are yours and confusion is a product of the uncertainty your “words” symbolize. Your words only take you so far, because they MUST ALWAYS symbolize uncertainty. God’s certainty has NO need of words and, therefore, neither do you.

The Power of Your Mind

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 14:41:00 +0000

M: How do I deal with boredom?

J: Extract from your world the expectation that of itself it holds any value that you would seek to possess. It holds nothing and can give you nothing, but what YOU provide and ask for. If you give it joy, then that joy is yours. If you give it pain, pain is what you will find when you look for it. “Boredom” is when you ask for what you have NOT given. To “deal with boredom,” simply give the world what you want and YOU will have it. NOTHING leaves your mind.

M: But I want joy.

J: Look on your world. If you do NOT see it, then you must be confused in what you want and ask for something else. Make no mistake, the reflection is always perfect, but if you are confused then this is what you will SEE. You see what you want, but rarely do you know what you want and this is why you see chaos.

M: You want me to deny reality!

J: You cannot “deny” what you made REAL. I merely ask that you accept that you ARE maker. God is not a part of your “reality,” because you MADE it to exclude TRUTH. The Reality of God is infinitely inclusive and, although you believe you are “here,” in TRUTH, you have never left THERE.

In accepting your role as maker, you accept complete invulnerability. What can harm the weaver of the dream, unless he was to weave his own death into the tapestry? But why would he, in knowing it is HIS to do as he please. This is exactly what you have MADE and, because it is yours, you embrace it as “REAL” simply by denying its origin. There is no need to differentiate between real and illusion in God’s world. Only TRUTH can ever BE, which is inherent in you by nature of your BEING. Yet, you do not KNOW who you are in TRUTH, but only who you IMAGINE yourself to “be.” If it is not TRUE, how can it be REAL?

M: Okay, so I made death. What about love? What about all the good things in this world?

J: It is all yours. Value none of it!

It is nonsense to consider HEAVEN co-existing with HELL. How can one who has come to expect moments of HELL, ever experience infinite joy? Your brief episodes of diluted pleasure are a poor substitute that has NOT sustained you and can NOT sustain you. Have you NOT learned this yet? How many more centuries of suffering must you endure before you LEARN.

Your “love” is conditioned on the expectations of HELL, demanding you tighten your grip in ever greater control of what MUST eventually slip away and be NO MORE.

Yet, you believe that within HELL you can experience brief episodes of HEAVEN and so, HELL becomes the home you imagine REAL.

M: So I should NOT value love?

J: Your “love” is not the gospel I intended. Your love includes only to exclude and, thus, it must ALWAYS exclude YOU. It seeks control through conditions which, if not met, demand guilt and punishment to the offender. This is NOT God’s love, which is what you were Created FROM and is what you ARE. Exclude any part of the whole and you will have banished yourself from EVERYTHING because everything that is IN God is IN you. Be grateful that you could no more depart from Creation than the stars fall from the sky.

Nothing you value can be of any assistance to you, no matter how you wish to twist your “reality” to make it fit your dreams of “happiness.” Value anything at all and you keep yourself victim to what you MADE. Open yourself to KNOWING the value of TRUTH by releasing yourself from what you made valuable.

M: But then how would I function in the world, if the world meant nothing to me?

J: Infinitely FREE!

You are trapped in a confusing labyrinth of your own distorted meanings and, therefore, You do NOT know what anything means. You are so deeply fixated on your delusions that you fear learning THAT you are deluded. Nevertheless, there is a part of you that senses a deeper TRUTH. That part looks on the world and wonders how anything it sees could possibly be REAL. That part called on me and LISTENS to my message in the desire to LEARN the meaning of TRUTH.

I teach that you value nothing simply because there is nothing there. This is what you must learn by listening to ME.

M: Nothing there? Why do I experience it as real then?

J: Because the power of your mind is beyond what even you could imagine and EVERYTHING you do imagine denies and nullifies the power that God gave you. It is not OF you, it IS you.

By making a part of your mind value inadequacy, you make delusions that you value only to prove you are AS weak as you believe. This is what you believe you are and so, it is what you look for and find. It was NOT “there” until you sought for it and, by giving it TO your world, you “discovered” proof that your delusions were real. The proof was there before you found it, because you put it there by wanting it be found. Your mind MAKES it real and nothing is free of your mind.

The power of your mind is literally beyond belief. Yet, you MUST believe, otherwise, the TRUTH will elude you and you will continue to fabricate proof of what you ARE NOT and "discover" it everywhere you look.

Discover NO more delusions and allow your ‘self’ be taught by the part of your mind that desires KNOWING.

There is where you will find ME and the message I teach.

Imagining TRUTH

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Thu, 03 Mar 2011 01:59:00 +0000

M: It just seems impossible to do these things you ask me to do

J: For centuries, this has been your grievance, ignoring that I have asked that you do nothing. Yet, this you say you cannot DO. Therefore, what you DO fails to help you.

M: How the hell does one “do nothing”?

J: By deciding you know NOT what need be done. Nothing more than that is necessary.

Here, in this writing, you do allow me to think WITH you because, by doing nothing, you are able to listen. You MUST learn to decide this naturally, else you will continue to make decisions on your own, contrary to your CALL for my help. You have called to me for centuries. Yet, when I answer your call, you are offended by what I offer, so deeply fixated on your need to DO MORE.

I am NOT offended. I only wait until I no longer offend YOU.

M: Writing this is different. I can sit still and listen. Life does not always allow for that time.

J: Life “allows” for what you decide and time is the means YOU have chosen for making decisions. You have given it NO other purpose. If you could only decide that “life” is nothing but an imaginary construct, that you are free to change at WILL, you would understand how easy it is to LISTEN. Yet, the NOISE you call “life” is what you insist on imagining. If you choose that instead, your choice makes it undeniably REAL for you. In 2000 years your imagination has given you nothing you NEED and in 2000 more it will provide the same unless you decide differently. Therefore, what do you wait for? When will you make the one decision that will FREE you from all decisions made and yet to be made?

Recall that when our discussions first began, we talked daily. But you turned away from ME, because you felt it was only YOU. This demonstrates how little you trust your ‘self’ while, ironically, continuing to fully rely on your ‘self.’

Such hypocrisy is NOT lost on you, but you have no idea how to correct it and so you continue to rely on that which you do NOT trust to correct that which your lack of trust makes REAL. I only provide another option, but you must still DECIDE.

M: But it’s hard to tell which voice is me and which is you.

J: You KNOW the difference between TRUTH and noise and you have always known. Truth is NOT of your making. The noise has always been yours, because it comes from a “world” of your imagining. Long before you ever imagined anything to take its place, TRUTH was all you KNEW. Nevertheless, what you now imagine is so powerful, and seemingly, beyond ALL doubt that noise appears to be the only TRUTH you CAN experience. You KNOW so much more.

Because you decided that what you imagine is REAL, you will NEVER deny what you SEE. Therefore, it is now time for you to imagine TRUTH, otherwise you will never decide to see IT.

M: But I thought you said truth was not of my making?

J: Yet, you can imagine IT IS. Otherwise, if it is NOT yours, you will be offended and NOT accept what is NOT OF YOU. In fact, this you must do or you will only allow yourself to be directed by the noise that gives no direction but to chaos. You will experience TRUTH when the noise no longer distracts you, because you NO longer imagine it TRUE.

TRUTH is of God and is a combined effect of ALL Creation. Seeking to judge between what might be true and what might NOT, seems to remove you from this effect, making you cause of something else. Such judgments only make delusion real and that becomes your REALITY instead.

M: So how do I “imagine” truth?

J: By imagining nothing else.

M: But if I don’t know what truth is, how would I know if I’m imagining it?

J: You will know it, because it is NOT of you, but has always been YOURS.

M: So pretend nothing I see really exists?

J: It has been your “pretending” that grants existence to the fragmented pictures of your imagination. Why would pretending the inverse be more difficult? You pretend that fear, death and suffering are REAL. I merely ask that you pretend otherwise.

M: So I should just pretend my body does not exist? This is ridiculously impossible.

J: It must be “ridiculously impossible” to a mind that imagines it only “exists” by virtue of a body. The body is the reference point for every thought you invest in. Therefore, not one thought is free of the body’s claim for the mind’s reason for existing. The "ego" is NOT who you are, but you believe it is and that decision makes all the difference between God's joy and your suffering.

Consider your abstract inventions such as “trust,” “compassion” and “freedom.” These concepts are incomprehensible, except within the context of a body that can incorporate such beliefs through “behaviors” and “actions,” thereby, making them completely contingent on pretending that your experience of a body is REAL. This is why your “sciences” inform you that only 10% of the “brain” is accessed and utilized. Yet, even in this accurate evaluation, the body’s “brain” is inaccurately identified as source.

Nevertheless, the power of a mind, dissociated from reliance on a body, is a power granted by God. You can pretend it is NOT real, but this does nothing to alter the fact of its TRUTH.

You have yet to assert your God given free-will, because such a WILL is unavailable to the mind that is victim to a body of its own imagination. Yet, although you pretend it is real, you can pretend the opposite. I am free of all bodily considerations and this is why I am the only teacher who KNOWS and can teach what is NOT KNOWLEDGE. This is all I have ever taught.

M: So how do I pretend the body does not exist?

J: By dissolving all FEAR of losing it. You cannot lose that which is a product of “pretending,” simply because it never existed in the first place. Your FREEDOM lies exclusively in this alone.

You Limit Yourself

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 18:05:00 +0000

M: What way should I live, behave or act in this reality I supposedly created?

J: Living, behaving and acting have no influence on your "reality." Therefore, your question is really how should you THINK, since only that determines your reality. Your thinking will always be based on BELIEF and belief is always determined by what you teach your self. This makes the teacher very significant to understanding Truth.

You are choosing to BELIEVE that I will provide you the knowledge you need to transcend what you have always thought and no longer appreciate. And since this is what you want, this is what your talking with me must eventually do because it is certain. Nevertheless, you continue to doubt that certainty.

M: So by talking to you I will transcend myself?

J: You will transform your thoughts about your “self” and begin to THINK of your “self” in other ways, which will result in those ways defining you and, therefore, you will SEE DIFFERENTLY. This process may continue on for some time, because of your delaying, but the result is certain.

M: Why don’t you just tell me who I will become and save me the time it takes to have these discussions?

J: The answer to your question is based on time and when you discard your concept of "self" you will subsequently discard time, which includes the "time" this is taking to know "who I will become." Therefore, I cannot describe for you what the future will be since the language that defines "you" is entirely based on time. What you "will become" is currently beyond your reach and requires that you learn first what YOU ARE NOT. This is what you have called on me to teach you and I teach nothing else.

M: You're really blowing my mind!

J: Only due to the fact that you believe you are a mind that believes it is limited by "time." Otherwise, all of this is natural and based on freedom from the laws you conceived to limit you IN time.

M: Wait a minute, what laws did God create?

J: God does not create laws, as laws LIMIT. Laws assert, “you must…” God would not make such assertions because God is not LIMITED in any way and "commands" nothing. Perfection needs no "control." You, however, believe you are imperfect and LIMITED, and that is how you have decreed "you must" be. LIMITATION is your law, NOT God's.

M: So I have created laws that limit me and cause me not to want to be limited?

J: You limit your Being through the application of belief in a limited “self.” And this has always required you desire freedom from your own limitations, although you continue to deny your role in applying the very limits that keep you captive to a "world" outside your mind. Freedom is contingent on understanding that you limit yourself. Nothing more than that need be learned. Nothing more than that do I teach.

M: Why can’t I have unlimited freedom?

J: Once again, you can have whatever you want, whenever you want it.

M: I don’t believe that this is helping me, nor do I believe it could help anyone else, since the only answer you can provide is based on my choosing some course or decision, that is related to the “time” concept. But when it comes to anything outside of time you are of no help because I can’t understand anything outside of time. So why even have this discussion at all?

J: That is an appropriate question but, again, it has already been answered.

Because you seek to transcend your own limitations. In essence, what you are seeking is to be God, which, as I said before, you ARE.

M: But how can I be God, because God created me, I didn’t create God.

J: God gave you the gift of BEING, however, you missed the point of that Gift and substituted your delusions of what you wanted instead. Yet, now you believe this substitution a curse and seek to know why you did NOT accept what God extended. If only you could understand that this curse is simply your guilt at failing to accept, although the Gift could NOT have been refused or it would have NOT been offered. Your BEING proves your acceptance TRUE. Yet, it is your guilt that leaves you feeling as though you are still absent of what could never have been refused.

There is no need to differentiate between God's Gift and what you substituted. Simply by extending God's Gift, you will finally confirm, TO YOURSELF, your acceptance and the Gift will again be experienced as YOURS.

God does not differentiate, as that would negate perfection. You differentiate and, therefore, clearly demonstrate your belief in imperfection. This belief limits you and requires judging your self-imposed limitations, not on infinite freedom, but on conceptual freedom, which is NO freedom at all.

An Invitation To Truth

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 01:42:00 +0000

M: This is driving me crazy. I’ve no idea what will happen next.

J: Insane expectations, by their very nature, demand insane experiences, which are worthless and of NO value. "What will happens next,” is also based on your expectations, unless you decide to invite TRUTH.

Until then, you will always get what you expect.

M: I didn’t expect any of this. This took me completely by surprise.

J: It must have been expected; else it could NOT have been experienced. You have yet to truly experience “surprise.” However, when you do, it will mean that you have discarded your expectations, thereby, declaring an end to CONTROL and extending an invitation to TRUTH.

Not one experience you have ever encountered has been free of YOUR expectations, based on the chronic preparation that comes from your incessant need to predict YOUR future. Hence, not one experience you have ever encountered is TRUE. Truth, by its very nature, does NOT conform to expectation. Contrary to all the many ways your “world” seeks to prepare you to expect it, TRUTH cannot be prepared for, which means YOU need do nothing.

M: The truth of this situation is that my marriage is ending.

J: Delusion has NO beginning and what has no beginning can have no “ending.”

Love contained and limited by delusional boundaries, may have value in a delusional world, but how can a delusional “world” be TRUE? And can your "love" then be true if nothing else is? What does NOT invite Truth has NO value and serves no purpose in “time.”

Delusion, by its very nature, is not REAL. But there is still time to realize this, since the delusion of time exists until TRUTH is invited. Although you deny this as fact, such is the purpose YOU have given to “time.” It has no other reason to exist, but to make its existence obsolete. You made it REAL for this purpose alone. God does NOT know “time.”

M: Unfortunately, there is no time left.

J: How can one who knows NOT what time is for, accurately evaluate how much is “left”? You have yet to use time for its intended purpose. To do so will obviously result in time diminishing as eternity enters to take its place. Time must naturally collapse upon itself, when eternity unfolds in awareness. There will come a “time” when eternity is ALL you realize and time will be no more. The idea that “time waits for no man” is an obvious fallacy. For, indeed, time waits for YOU, because time is a construct of a mind encumbered by limitations that result in finite delusions. You are infinite ,as am I, and I assure you my brother, although your delusions make you feel hopelessly alone, we are in this TOGETHER. I will guide you to the others that wait for you.

However, this means that time is at your disposal, since you demand it, and only you will eventually dispose of it completely.

Dispose of your purpose for this relationship and every relationship and you are, thereby, using time for its intended purpose. Without the meanings you apply to your world, through which time is experienced, time can no longer contain you because you have no reference point from which it can be encountered. Without your meanings, “time” simply cannot be experienced. Let go of every meaning you have for every relationship you experience and use time to your advantage.

M: I’m pretty well forced to let go of my meaning for this marriage. I have no choice in that and I suppose that’s the problem.

J: You feel betrayed because your meaning is rejected. Yet, although it was reliable, and you remained loyal to it for many years, you still must determine if it was valid. To rely on that which is invalid is insane and this is why you currently feel that what you experience is “driving me crazy.” As long as you remain fixated on your expectations, or invalid meanings, your expectations will determine your state of mind and that will always reflect insanity. Free-will allows you a “choice” in this. You always have a choice.

M: If she wants out, then I have NO choice in that.

J: You chose it. This may not seem valid to you at present, because you are so incredibly short-sighted, but make no mistake, all that you experience has been chosen by YOU. If you could see as I see, you would know that your delusional “life “is but a brief insignificant moment in time, simply because time does not exist.

Therefore, what seems to be a series of choices, has always been the same choice. The choice to deny TRUTH. A choice that seems to be made over and over again, but was really only made ONCE. Now, all that is required is that you choose differently.

M: But how does this pertain to my situation?

J: This “situation" only requires Truth. Invite TRUTH to come and suffer no more from what “time” seems to bring.

M: But how do I invite truth?

J: Fully understand that you have NO idea what IT is. No more than this is necessary to finally understand IT and apply that understanding to every “situation” you experience.

When you think you “know,” you then feel obligated to apply this meaning to the meaningless, always ignorant of the fact that this is what made it meaningless in the first place.

Be still and allow me to show you what it means, because “I am the way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the father except through me.”

The Purpose of YOUR World

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 18:54:00 +0000

M: You keep saying that I made the world. But how can that be when the world does not conform to what I want.

J: Do you KNOW what you want?

M: Sure. I want happiness.

J: If “happiness” is ALL you have wanted, then I assure you, your world would conform. Yet, if your “happiness” is delusional, then this will be reflected back to YOU, because you have extended it into the world and “there” is where you seek to achieve it. Make NO mistake, what YOU seek, the world must always provide. This is the ONLY purpose you have given it.

The world moves from one goal to the next, seeking salvation through what it possesses and accumulates, not what it shares. When possession is obstructed, “happiness” is replaced by depression and discouragement. You feel deprived and the world gives you limit and loss. You feel anger and the world shows you war. You experience guilt and the world demands punishment. You feel alone and the world is indifferent. You fear death and the world proves that you MUST die.

When you seek ONLY joy, the world must give this because you have allowed it that purpose. Yet, this has never been ALL that you seek and so, it is never all you receive.

You wish to be free of the world. I am teaching you to be free of your PURPOSE for the world. It will naturally follow YOU in its desire to be free. When Joy is ALL that you want, then by God, you shall have it, because it has already been given. Until then you will experience chaos and fear, but only because this is what your mind embraces. What you grab hold of as “truth,” will not leave you until the MOMENT you open your fist and let it go. Cling no more to the purpose you give to the world and the world will no longer cling to your suffering.

M: So you’re saying I don’t know how to be happy.

J: How could you, if you seek that purpose from the world? YOU have made a “world” that is cause of nothing, but has the ability to be origin of ONLY joy… if you so ordain it as TRUTH.

Yet, your world can NEVER make you happy, because this is NOT the purpose you give it. Its purpose is simply to deny you are cause and, therefore, this is the effect you seek, and always find.

M: So if I want world peace tomorrow, I can have it?

J: Instantly! In the blink of an eye. Whatever you want, and want completely, is yours for the asking. But it must be given completely to be received completely. You must want it completely and with NO doubt that both you and your world are worthy to have it. If you look to the world to teach what you want, you will want what you gave the world, which is incompletion and chaos.

The world KNOWS nothing completely. It is made up of parts, which are idolized as if they were the whole. It holds the function of salvation, but without the knowledge to save. Why do you deny it this KNOWLEDGE? Nothing in your world can save you because nothing in your world is saved and this is the purpose you have ascribed to it. Only when you extend salvation TO IT, will you be saved BY IT, simply because you GAVE IT that ONLY purpose. There are NO levels or degrees to TRUTH. It either is or is NOT.

M: So it’s just up to me. I’m the one who has to save the world in order to save myself.

J: Recognize that YOUR distinctions are delusional. There is NO “world,” nor is there a “you” IN IT. Making such distinctions is cause of your suffering. Yet, since the distinction is delusional, so is the suffering that attends it. Delusion, by its very nature, can easily disappear, simply because it was never “there” to begin with.

As long as YOU see salvation as separate from the world, will the world need salvation in order to save YOU. There is NO division, except in perception and perception was made to divide.

M: It’s egotistical to consider myself as some sort of “savior.” In fact, it borders on insanity!

J: It is the delusion of a separate ego that normalizes an insane world and finds what I teach preposterous. Yet an ego is what you THINK you are, but NOT what you ARE CREATED TO BE. A self separated from its world is useless and this is what you believe of your “self” and your erratic moods attest to this deep sense of inadequacy.

There is only ONE MIND and that mind has NO knowledge of an inadequate self. That mind is NOT delusional and, I assure you, YOU ARE that mind. Although you THINK you are confused and change your mind often, God’s thoughts ABOUT YOU are changeless.

M: What about other people or other minds?

J: You are NEVER alone and you cannot reach HEAVEN alone, but you can live in HELL by believing you CAN. Yet, neither do “they” understand what they ARE and so, they only support YOUR delusion as YOU support theirs.

I speak with you as I speak with them. Because I speak to only ONE MIND. There can only ever be ONE CHRIST.

M: I don’t experience the world as joined with myself. I experience it as separate from me. So how can I believe what you teach if I can’t experience it?

J: Belief ALWAYS precedes experience and what you believe is ALWAYS what you experience. A fallacy of reason believes that experience determines belief. ALL your suffering is hinged on this one central fallacy. But it is a mistake that can be corrected.

Your world persistently lies to you, yet you persist in seeking joy from IT by allowing it the capacity to deceive YOU. When will you learn the futility of this endeavor? When will you recognize that your exhaustion is a product of this seeking with no end? When will you SEE that the world has not the capacity to sustain you? And when will you give it that purpose?

I teach that ONLY God’s joy can sustain you and change your world forever. You do see this in my message, but you are so deeply entrenched in the ego’s fortifications, that your mind can concentrate only for the briefest of moments on TRUTH. You come in and out of focus, entranced by the world’s gift of momentary pleasure and for that substitution, TRUTH is all but a distant memory. Yet, make NO mistake, it is YOUR memory and it could no more leave you, then the stars could leave the heavens. It is certain you WILL remember.

Nevertheless, I am not dissuaded in the least by your mistrust. I will persist because the strength of my perseverance is given by God, just as God has insured the certainty of your remembering.

I merely ask that you test the message and SEE for yourself. Fully believe as I believe, only for a moment, and experience what awaits you.

The Conditions of Fear

noreply@blogger.com (mike) — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 13:48:00 +0000

M: I feel what you teach causes me more stress. How can I ever meet the conditions you ask for?

J: I teach that it is your conditions that are cause of “stress” and all I ask is that you discard them.

M: How do I discard the conditions of life? I must eat, breathe, sleep, etc. If these conditions are not followed, I will die.

J: Truth has no conditions and requires nothing from you. Any conditions you believe necessary are entirely yours. TRUTH is of the mind and your “conditions of life” fail to alter IT in any way. It remains with you always.

However, if you believe your conditions are “true,” then clearly your “life” cannot be TRUE, because your mind was CREATED without condition. A mind conditioned on the needs of the body “must eat, breathe, sleep, etc.” However, a mind that learns that it is ORIGIN of the body eventually learns to be free of even these conditions.

This is absurd to you, because you have yet to learn this and therefore, you “must eat, breathe, sleep, etc” and have become very comfortable with doing so. These conditions do NOT concern me, nor do they concern you and for now, you must continue to compromise with TRUTH until you learn that TRUTH accepts NO compromise.

Your only task, and the reason you have called on me, is to discard the conditions born of FEAR. Until you do you will only remain victimized by your own conditions, because conditions are imposed from fear in order to LIMIT awareness. Awareness is entirely a function of mind and has nothing whatsoever to do with a body
.
M: So there’ll be a time when I will no longer require these conditions?

J: There can never be a “time” when this will be experienced, as long as time conditions your life. The body can never be free of time, because it adheres completely to those conditions. However, the mind IS always free and need not be chained to the conditions of time, but only when freed from the conditions of a body. However, your mind can never understand this as long as ALL thoughts are determined by fear. NOT one thought of your “self” is free of fear.

This is why you have always found my teachings preposterous, because NOT one thought you have is free or capable of FREEING you. A mind conditioned by a body in time must fear its own thoughts.

My thoughts are yours, but you are very frightened of what WE think. Yet, this is dissolving and awareness can only expand as fear recedes. Expanded awareness accelerates learning, because what I teach abolishes fear.

M: So I need to be completely free of all fear first.

J: In a world conditioned by TIME, there must be a “first” in order to realize a “second” and then a “third,” so that you can proceed further along the path of learning. This is also a condition you have imposed, but I’m quite willing to work with YOUR delusions for the sake of dissolving fear. Therefore, you are correct in that “first” you must be free of fear in order to learn effectively.

You have NO comprehension of a mind completely free of fear, because everything you comprehend is a product of FEAR. Your ideas of freedom are limited to your preoccupation with the body. How can a mind steeped in fear and preoccupied by a body have even the slightest understanding of FREEDOM?

I would suggest that you NOT seek to dissolve the conditions you demand to experience your ‘self.’ However, you may wish to identify the conditions you impose on others, since it is this, that has determined your own victimization from FEAR.

Recognize that any attempt to control your “reality” is an attempt born of fear. Allow TRUTH to be itself and do NOT interfere or impose upon that infinite purity.
