What's Enlightenment?

Thanks for wondering the questions which come to the mind, even though they appear "relatively peculiar" to you. In Enlightenment all perceived pain has vanished, for what but wrong-mindedness appeared to create the misperception named pain.

Suffering was the illusion that Christ can keep a Caring Creator's Mind. "If suffering is real there is no God. If Lord is actual there is no pain."(W-190.3) The latter does work because Lord does not have any opposite. Enlightenment entails number pain or displeasure abouteckhart tolle a course in miracles ANYTHING, for Enlightenment is Natural, Continuous Happiness, Peace, Flexibility, and Joy. Being Constant, Enlightenment understands maybe not of change. The dream of vulnerability and fluctuating emotions went as well. There's number vanity to fall "straight back into." Nature Abides in light Love. All pain has ended Now and nothing stays but an advantage of Stillness.

The Sacred Nature could be the memory that Life is Eternal. The Present Moment could be the gate way to Eternity. The entire world of pictures was a full world of illusion. Images are therefore basic to the Sacred Spirit. These were "neutralized" the immediate they seemed to arise.

What does that mean in terms of your second issue? You can't eliminate what has never lived, and in the Sacred Spirit's Perspective of forgiveness damage is impossible. Figures were never created and never die since the world of photographs may be the past. It is difficult to get beginnings and endings in a script that is presently written and over long ago. There is no living in images. Here is the meaning of "Hold no graven images prior to the Lord Thy God." All images were made to obscure the Reality from attention, and they could only be understood as you illusion. If illusions might be divided up in to living and lifeless, normal and inorganic, animate and inanimate Enlightenment could be impossible. For what's Enlightenment but Genuine Oneness, far beyond the likelihood of section of all kinds? The separate brain was the illusion. Seek to not task the separate brain to types and call some forms alive and some types dead. Lord understands not form. The split mind seemed to be the "killer" illusion, yet the Holy Heart reminds the asleep brain that what's whole and single can never BE split. In Paradise Brain is One Spirit, and also with regard to that world forgiveness shows that Oneness. The forgiven earth acknowledges the unity of the relieved mind and sees that there's nothing "outside" of this simple brain which desires softly a pleased, light dream. The goal of ACIM would be to desire lightly of a sinless world. That goal is a lot more than probable, it is inevitable!

In terms of my seeming diet, "consume what's served" may be the Guidance I was handed from the Sacred Soul many years ago. Join with your brother and let number concept come involving the Enjoy you share. This Advice has not changed. "Dinner" is obviously a foundation for discussing the Joy of the Residing Moment. What the world calls "breathing" and "eating" and "drinking" and "sleeping" are really all the same in the Enlightened State. The Healed Perspective sees the sameness of all things because they all reveal exactly the same Purpose: forgiveness. That Perspective isn't "particular," for in good understanding nothing is personal. Lord isn't any respecter of persons. I actually cannot "take" an animal's "life" since Life is Soul and can only just be expanded or Given as God Gives. "Take" doesn't have meaning within my mind and since animals haven't "lived" it is difficult that they might "die." The opinion stated in the idea "personally get an animal's life" has many underlying assumptions which are false. In right-mindedness it's evident that ideas are strengthened since they are provided away or distributed, and "taking" a "life" or some thing doesn't have meaning. All that I give is given to mySelf, and in providing there's no reduction, number sacrifice, and nothing is ever taken away from wholeness and unity. The instructor of Lord does not want something that can not be provided away. Such could be the Pleasure of wonders! The thought seeds appear to be flung everywhere, however there is never a good glance back once again to see where in fact the seeds land. The vegetables are never for an "different," and since giving and getting are the same your brain receives the gifts it gives. This is really the feast you find for beneath the ego's questions.

The only real issue that need be requested is just a problem that's not really foolish at all: Am I ready to learn that God's Will and My Possess are the Same? God's Will for Me is for Perfect Happiness. And what but this Will may be the Can of Christ? Happily, nothing can change Timeless Love. Thank You God!
