What is Enlightenment? The teachings of A Course In Mircles

Question: What is Enlightenment?

Thanks for asking the questions that can come in your mind, regardless of whether they seem “rather peculiar” to you personally. In Enlightenment all perceived pain has disappeared, for but wrong-mindedness seemed to produce the misperception called pain.

Discomfort was the illusion that Christ could leave a Loving Creator’s Mind. “If pain is real there is absolutely no God. If God is real there is no pain.”(W-190.3) Aforementioned holds true because God doesn’t have opposite. Enlightenment entails no pain or displeasure about ANYTHING, for Enlightenment is Pure, Constant Happiness, Peace, Freedom, and Joy. Being Constant, Enlightenment knows not of change. The illusion of vulnerability and fluctuating emotions went as well. There isn’t any ego to fall “back into.” Spirit Abides in gentle Love. All pain is over Now and zilch remains but a blessing of Stillness.


The Holy Spirit is the reminder that Our life is Eternal. The actual Moment is the gateway to Eternity. The joy of images was obviously a arena of illusion. Images therefore are neutral on the Holy Spirit. They were “neutralized” when they seemed to arise.

What does this imply with regards to your next question? You cannot kill what needs never lived, as well as in the Holy Spirit’s Perspective of forgiveness harm isn’t feasible. Bodies weren’t born rather than die since the realm of images may be the past. It is impossible to discover beginnings and endings within a script that is already written and also over way back when. There isn’t any life in images. This is actually the meaning of “Hold no graven images ahead of the Lord Thy God.” All images were made to obscure the reality from awareness, and so they are only able to be forgiven jointly illusion. If illusions could be divided up into living and dead, organic and inorganic, animate and inanimate Enlightenment can be impossible. For the purpose is Enlightenment but Pure Oneness, beyond the potential for division of any type? The split mind was the illusion. Seek never to project the split mind to forms and call some forms alive plus some forms dead. God knows not form. The split mind have also been the “killer” illusion, yet the Holy Spirit reminds the sleeping mind that what is whole and unified can not BE split. In Heaven Mind is One Spirit, and also regarding this world forgiveness reflects this Oneness. The forgiven world recognizes the unity in the healed mind and understands that you’ll find nothing “outside” of this single mind which dreams softly a pleasant, gentle dream. The goal of ACIM is to dream softly of an sinless world. This goal is much more than possible, it really is inevitable!

As for my seeming diet, “eat what is served” could be the Guidance I became given in the Holy Spirit many years ago. Join along with your brother and let no concept come between the Love you share. This Guidance has not yet changed. “Dinner” is always a backdrop for sharing the Joy of the Living Moment. Just what the world calls “breathing” and “eating” and “drinking” and “sleeping” are really all alike within the Enlightened State. The Healed Perspective sees the sameness of the things because they all share the identical Purpose: forgiveness. This attitude is not “personal,” for in unified perception there’s nothing personal. God is not any respecter of persons. I literally cannot “take” an animal’s “life” because Every day life is Spirit and will only be extended or Given as God Gives. “Take” does not have any meaning over the internet and since animals have not “lived” it’s impossible that they can could “die.” The idea expressed inside the thought “personally take an animal’s life” has several underlying assumptions which are false. In right-mindedness no doubt that ideas are strengthened because they are distributed or shared, and “taking” a “life” or something more has no meaning. Everything that I give is given to mySelf, and in giving there is no loss, no sacrifice, and zilch is ever recinded from wholeness and unity. The teacher of God does not want something that cannot be distributed. Such may be the Joy of miracles! Thinking seeds are most often flung everywhere, yet there exists never a good glance to see the place that the seeds land. The seeds will never be with an “other,” as well as giving and receiving are the same the mind receives the gifts it offers. This really is in truth the feast you search for under the ego’s questions.

The one question that require be asked can be a question that isn’t really silly whatsoever: Shall we be held prepared to understand that God’s Will and My very own are similar? God’s Will for me personally is perfect for Perfect Happiness. And what however Will is the Will of Christ? Happily, nothing can transform Eternal Love. Thanks a lot God!
