Welcome to Active Meditation,
A Course in Miracles,
Lesson 96 meditation comes from my oneself.
Although you are oneself,
You experience yourself as two,
As both good and evil,
Loving and hating mind and body.
The self you made can never be your higher self,
Nor can yourself be split in two,
And still be what it is and must forever be.
A mind and body cannot both exist.
Make no attempt to reconcile the two.
If you are physical,
Your mind is gone from your self-concept,
For it has no place in which it could really be a part of you.
If you are spirit,
Then the body must be meaningless to your reality.
Spirit makes use of mind as means to find its self-expression.
The mind which serves the spirit is at peace and filled with joy.
Mind,
Apart from spirit,
Cannot think.
The mind has denied its source of strength and sees itself as helpless,
Limited,
And weak.
Now,
Must the mind reconcile,
Unlike with like,
For this is what the mind thinks that it is for.
Waste no more time on this.
Who can resolve the senseless conflicts which a dream presents?
What could the resolution mean in truth?
What purpose could this resolution serve?
What is a resolution for?
Salvation comes from God through the oneself,
Through your higher self,
Who is the bridge between your mind and God.
Wait patiently.
Let God speak to you about your oneself and what your mind can do restored,
Communing with your oneself and free to serve its will.
Say to yourself,
Say in your mind,
Salvation comes from my oneself.
Salvation comes from my higher self.
Its thoughts are mine to use.
Now seek the thoughts of your higher self,
Your oneself,
And claim them as your own.
The thoughts that come to you will tell you you are saved,
And that your mind has found the function that it sought to lose.
I'll be silent.
These are your real thoughts.
Your higher self knows that you cannot fail today.
Perhaps your mind remains uncertain.
Be not dismayed by this.
The joy your higher self experiences,
It will save for you.
And joy will yet be yours in full awareness.
Each time today you tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your oneself,
Your higher self,
You lay another treasure in your growing store.
And all of it is given everyone who asks for it and will accept the gift.
Think then how much is given unto you to give this day,
Had it be given you.
Now spend a few moments searching for God within your mind.
These are your own real thoughts.
Wait patiently.
Let God speak to you about your oneself and what your mind can do restored,
Communing with your higher self and free to serve its will.
.
Salvation comes from my oneself.
.
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.
