What's Enlightenment?

Thanks for asking the issues which come to the mind, even though they appear "relatively peculiar" to you. In Enlightenment all perceived suffering has vanished, for what but wrong-mindedness felt to create the misperception called pain.

Suffering was the illusion that Christ could leave a Caring Creator's Mind. "If pain is real there is number God. If Lord is actual there is no pain."(W-190.3) The latter holds true since Lord does not have any opposite. Enlightenment entails number pain or displeasure about ANYTHING, for Enlightenment is Real, Continuous Pleasure, a course in miracles Peace, Flexibility, and Joy. Being Continuous, Enlightenment understands maybe not of change. The illusion of susceptibility and changing emotions has gone as well. There is no ego to drop "straight back into." Soul Abides in light Love. All suffering is over Now and nothing remains but an advantage of Stillness.

The Holy Nature could be the memory that Life is Eternal. The Present Moment is the gate way to Eternity. The world of photographs was an environment of illusion. Photos are thus natural to the Sacred Spirit. They certainly were "neutralized" the instant they did actually arise.

What does this suggest in relation to the second question? You can't kill what has never lived, and in the Holy Spirit's Perspective of forgiveness damage is impossible. Figures were never born and never die because the entire world of pictures is the past. It is impossible to get beginnings and endings in a script that's currently published and over long ago. There's number living in images. This is actually the indicating of "Hold no graven pictures prior to the Lord Thy God." All photos were designed to hidden the Truth from consciousness, and they could only be understood together illusion. If illusions might be separated up into residing and dead, natural and inorganic, animate and inanimate Enlightenment could be impossible. For what is Enlightenment but Genuine Oneness, far beyond the chance of department of any sort? The split mind was the illusion. Seek never to project the split brain to forms and call some forms alive and some forms dead. God knows perhaps not form. The separate brain was the "killer" dream, yet the Sacred Heart reminds the asleep mind that what's whole and single can never BE split. In Heaven Brain is One Heart, and also regarding this world forgiveness shows this Oneness. The understood earth identifies the unity of the recovered mind and considers that there is nothing "outside" of this simple mind which dreams lightly a happy, mild dream. The target of ACIM would be to dream softly of a sinless world. This aim is significantly more than probable, it's inevitable!

As for my seeming diet, "consume what is served" is the Guidance I was handed from the Holy Spirit a long time ago. Join along with your brother and let number idea come involving the Love you share. This Advice hasn't changed. "Dinner" is obviously a backdrop for discussing the Pleasure of the Living Moment. What the planet calls "breathing" and "eating" and "drinking" and "sleeping" are very the same in the Enlightened State. The Recovered Perspective considers the sameness of all things since all of them reveal exactly the same Purpose: forgiveness. That Perspective isn't "particular," for in good notion nothing is personal. Lord isn't any respecter of persons. I virtually can't "take" an animal's "life" since Living is Nature and can just only be prolonged or Provided as Lord Gives. "Take" doesn't have meaning within my mind and since animals haven't "lived" it's impossible that they might "die." The belief stated in the thought "professionally take an animal's life" has several underlying assumptions that are false. In right-mindedness it's evident that a few ideas are increased because they are given away or distributed, and "taking" a "life" or anything more doesn't have meaning. All that I give is given to mySelf, and in offering there's number reduction, no sacrifice, and nothing is ever removed from wholeness and unity. The instructor of Lord does not need something that cannot be given away. Such could be the Pleasure of wonders! The thought seeds seem to be flung every-where, yet there is never a glance back again to see where the vegetables land. The seeds are never for an "different," and because giving and receiving are the same your brain receives the presents it gives. This is truly the food you seek for beneath the ego's questions.

The only question that require be asked is just a issue that's not necessarily foolish at all: Am I ready to learn that God's Will and My Own will be the Same? God's Will for Me is for Great Happiness. And what but that Will is the May of Christ? Cheerfully, nothing can change Endless Love. Thank You God!
