Love Will Lead you safely
home would you say that the course is is
saying that the Romantic relationship is
the sacred cow of the
ego well it I would say
that the course starts off by saying
that that you have made special
relationships and the Holy Spirit uses
what you have made
in the transformation to Holiness so in
other words holy relationship I would
say that where it's heading is the holy
instant you know that's really where the
holy relationship is heading and I would
say that romantic relationship you know
it's the spirit has to start where the
Mind believes it's at it's not like you
know it wouldn't be practical if it came
in with the teaching and it was like
what I don't relate to that at all and
and there was no sense of of it would be
almost like be being told here's the
ladder back to heaven and the first five
or six rungs are missing you're supposed
to like do a giant leap up to the middle
of the ladder because there's no other
rungs it's just not the way the spirit
works so it's it's typical that that
relationships are romantic or or they're
defined by roles like sibling roles or
motherdaughter love or father son or you
know those kind of relationships are all
part of what the world has the ego has
learned and then you have to go from
that and progress higher and higher and
higher so I think that there have been a
lot of people who they start out in very
romantic relationships and then the more
collaborative and the more you might say
higher they're lifted up in
Consciousness than some of those
romantic ESS ects just start to fall
away and that's how it works it's like a
retranslation it's where nothing is like
ripped away and I happened to enjoy this
article I saw in Yahoo about a week ago
where it was this uh this woman who had
who had starred with Elvis Presley in
like a
1957 uh movie what was her name was it
Dolores Hart Dolores Hart so so she's
she comes into the movie making business
she's kind of recruited at N I think
like 19 or something like that and she
goes and she makes this movie with the
King and then she does some more movies
and then when she's like what 23 24 she
goes into the convent and she spent the
rest of her life you know in the convent
I I thought that was adorable in the
sense that now HBO's gone into her
convent and and they they Mak it her
star again uh but but as a life of as a
nun kind of a consecrated life that way
so that just shows you you know that's
just a way of taking something that
would be much more recognizable as kind
of a romantic one where she's she can
reminisce now she's probably in her 70s
been a nun for all these decades and
it's like oh yeah I kissed
Elvis I kissed the
king you imagine there none oh I kissed
the king I can tell you about that and
what was the name of the new um
documentary that it was something about
um they used King in it but it was
something about
God
yeah yeah something like that God Is
Bigger Than Elvis yeah the documentary
that was what HBO was doing and they
were she said they came in they were
very respectful and so forth so it's
just about that that transformation to a
higher and higher love uh that
transcends the
Romantic but the course is a pathway for
relationships and it's a pathway for
using the symbols of the world so it's
not going to be effective like I said if
you start off and you Lop off you know
the the symbols of the world how are you
supposed to climb you know you got to
work it as they say to higher and higher
States yeah so that's what's beautiful
about the course
