A Course In Miracles Lessons 6-10 Review

Remember only this; you need not believe the ideas, you need not accept them, and you need not even welcome them. Some of them you may actively resist. None of this will matter, or decrease their efficacy. But do not allow yourself to make exceptions in applying the ideas the workbook contains, and whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, use them. Nothing more than that is required.

Welcome to active meditation.

The Course in Miracles Review Lessons 6-10 This is a Course in Miracles.

It is a required Course.

Only the time you take it is voluntary.

Some of the ideas the exercises present,

You will find hard to believe,

And others may seem to be quite startling.

This does not matter.

You are merely asked to apply the ideas as you are directed to do.

You are not asked to judge them at all.

You are asked only to use them.

It is their use that will give them meaning to you,

And will show you that they are true.

The purpose of the workbook is to train your mind in a systematic way to a different perception of everyone and everything in the world.

I am upset because I see what is not there.

Reality is never frightening.

It is impossible that it could upset me.

Reality brings only perfect peace.

When I am upset,

It is always because I have replaced reality with illusions I made up.

The illusions are upsetting because I have given them reality,

And thus regard reality as an illusion.

Nothing in God's creation is affected in any way by this confusion of mine.

I am always upset by nothing.

I am upset because I see what is not there.

I see only the past.

As I look about,

I condemn the world I look upon.

I call this seeing.

I hold the past against everyone and everything,

Making them my enemy.

When I have forgiven myself and remember who I am,

I will bless everyone and everything I see.

There will be no past,

And therefore no enemies,

And I will look with love on all that I failed to see before.

I see only the past.

My mind is preoccupied with past thoughts.

I see only my own thoughts,

And my mind is preoccupied with the past.

What then can I see as it is?

Let me remember that I look on the past to prevent the present from dawning on my mind.

Let me understand that I am trying to use time against God.

Let me learn to give the past away,

Realizing that in so doing,

I am giving up nothing.

My mind is preoccupied with past thoughts.

I see nothing as it is now.

If I see nothing as it is now,

It can truly be said that I see nothing.

I can see only what is now.

The choice is not whether to see the past or the present.

The choice is merely whether to see or not.

What I have chosen to see has cost me vision.

Now I would choose again that I may see.

I see nothing as it is now.

My thoughts do not mean anything.

I have no private thoughts,

Yet it is only private thoughts of which I am aware.

What can these thoughts mean?

They do not exist,

And so they mean nothing.

Yet my mind is part of creation and part of its creator.

Would I not rather join the thinking of the universe than to obscure all that is really mine with my pitiful and meaningless private thoughts?

My thoughts do not mean anything.

Let's return to our regular waking state of thoughts,

Feelings,

And actions.

To time and space.

Take a few deep breaths to help establish the waking state.

And return,

Fully alert,

Comfortable in all instruments of awareness,

With a heightened awareness of our environment,

And the knowledge I am aware.

I am.

Nothing real can be threatened.

Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the peace of God.

Loved it, I am glad with every step it is becoming easier. Not easy! Easier :) this time though I could not get rid of thoughts, whichever meditation techniques I tried thoughts were everywhere, I started ignoring them but it was like listening 2 people- teacher and my brain at the same time.
But I liked this session, it systemized previous lessons, made it more clear. Thank you.

nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists. herein lies the peace of God. thank you 🙏

I really love this course. I have the book. A very thick and cherished book. Thank you. Namaste 🙏🏽

I don’t have the patients to go one day at a time. I love these compilations. I listen to them over again for as many days as there are lessons. I also find their essence reinforced by Erin Michelle Galito a channel of Jesus on YouTube.
