when you really take it in
you start to realize that that all of
time is just repeating that belief in
the original error so it's just a an
error that seems to be repeated over and
over and over and that's what makes time
it makes the illusion of time it makes
the illusion of of change time is
associated with change but it's always
in flux everything is changing shifting
[Music]
the main distinction you could say the
one distinction that is required to wake
up from this dream is just to see the
impossibility of change
[Music]
it's the world itself by definition is
the belief in change then you can't
really change the change you can only
change your mind about the change what
does that even mean change your mind
about the change you can you can see the
impossibility of it that's that's it
that's what forgiveness is it overlooks
because this is actually the answer that
solves all seeming problems because the
only problem was the belief in change
and when you come to this state of mind
where you see the impossibility have
changed then that's it it's like game
over for the ego
in fact it shows that there never was a
game so this is the joy and the
happiness and the light heartedness
[Music]
and yet the ego insists on changing
everything how many versions of the
course are really needed well it's
actually the practical application of
the what I'm talking about tonight is
what's needed not coming up with
different versions and variations and
you know this craziness of the world oh
yeah a variety is the spice of life no
different strokes for different folks no
[Music]
Jesus asked us in the course he says
makes make this year different by making
it all the same so really there's
nothing in time and space that you can
look at to perceive through the five
senses that relates to anything real
that doesn't have anything to do with
reality it's just one reality and that's
eternal spirit and has done multiple
realities and there aren't different
perceptions of reality because as
reality is spirit reality is eternal and
changed listen perception always changes
if you look at
interpersonal relationships you know
changing interpersonal relationships or
what people talk about changing a
partner all those things are still an
attempt to change the change but but the
change is false by definition and so you
can't change the false you can just see
the false is false see see that's the
difference it's not trying to change the
false but just see the false is false
it's very peaceful it's very relaxing
very nurturing it's quite as far as
concepts go forgiveness is the last
concept you'll ever need and it's very
very very relaxing
another way of saying this is you can't
heal what is unreal so that's why you
can't heal the body because the body is
just a part of fragmented perception but
the body isn't sick it's it's just a
piece of the puzzle and you see the
purpose for the body and for the world
is just forgiveness very unifying
purpose which unifies all things then
then is the perception healed
that's what the problem was all along it
was cracked perception it was fragmented
perception it was distorted perception
and you have it difficulty understanding
this is because quite frankly you still
are invested in specifics you're
invested in idols what does that mean to
be invested in people invested in money
best in companies invested in a sports
team when he invested in a relationship
looking a certain way invested in the
body thinking the body has some value in
and of itself all the things that people
call life on earth which is not life at
all eternal life is what life is but all
the projections that people call life is
basically just again a devotion a
dedication to an addiction to a changing
and you can't change the changing can
only see the impossibility of it
that's where the awakening occurs it's
not in looking to make anything better
looking to improve anything you won't
find enlightenment in ego self-concept
goals when you achieve them
you will notice you're still not
satisfied and that's because they're
ephemeral their temporal if you're an
eternal being you will never be
satisfied with the ephemeral it's quite
quite simple but the ego defense against
this realization the resistance to
understanding how simple everything
really is let all things be exactly as
they are and see that everything that
happens to me I ask for and receive as
I've asked the simplicity of that is is
a unified mind
[Music]
I guess I've given away the mystery
there's really no mystery to it
enlightenment is not mysterious it's
actually the natural state of mind of
the Christ it's the natural alignment
with God being sourced by God being
created perfect pure love eternal spirit
by an eternally loving creator and
that's what simplicity is that's what
waking up is all about but it's not
something that you have to constantly
guess at or it's not something where
you're looking to try to cue off of the
form to know who you are that small
still voice within that inner
recognition is what waking up is about
not about trying to find some evidence
in the world to support your identity
as in the Matrix movie you might
remember when they first go into the
matrix are driving along the street and
Trinities in the car and neo and
Morpheus and and they talk to start
talking about those the noodles this
place where the neo it remembers a
memory of having some good noodles and
and basically he's told all those
memories that you think happened never
happened and he doesn't know what that
means and basically Trinity there is -
it's right there in the car to give him
the answer he says it that means the
matrix cannot tell you who you are the
world of images cannot tell you who you
are
[Music]
you're not gonna find a bunch of images
and idols you're not gonna find the holy
son of God pure abstract spirit and love
and light in the images that's why you
have to forgive them you have to forgive
the veil I am one the father and I are
one I am one all you have to do is open
up and embrace the fact
[Music]
you
