This sense of being split into opposites induces feelings of acute and constant conflict, and leads to frantic attempts to reconcile the contradictory aspects of this self-perception. ACIM W-96.p.1.1:1-2
Attempting to make sense of anything in this reality brings only endless despair.
There is no balance; the bad within the ego self can never be in harmony with the good within the Self.
Time wasted in efforts to solve problems in an imagined reality is utterly meaningless.
You are, collectively, either the Holy Son of God, or you are a body; each contradicts the existence of the other; choose one.
“You are the spirit in whose mind abides the miracle in which all time stands still; the miracle in which a minute spent in using these ideas becomes a time that has no limit and has no end.” (4:1)
As a spirit, you are aware that a body is a part of the nothingness of a dream; contradictions within a dream can never be resolved.
If you believe you are a body birthed out of pain, guilt, and separation, harmonization with perfect love is impossible.
Spirit provides power to the mind to express Itself; when the mind thinks itself is a body, it separates from spirit, finding itself absent of function, thoughts void of peace and happiness.
Without spirit, the Source of strength enabling the mind to think is not available, leaving it incomplete and vulnerable.
It retreats into a feeble body, struggling to make sense of an insane world.
“The self you made can never be your Self, nor can your Self be split in two, and still be what It is and must forever be.” (3:3)
Divine truth is retained by the Holy Spirit within the mind, a pathway to salvation and peace, the bridge between the one Self and the self.
Wait patiently and listen; allow the Holy Spirit to remind you of the Self, and the power of a restored mind, freeing it to serve Its Will.
“Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.”(Isaiah 41:10 (RSV)
Fellow Travelers: Remind yourself often:
“Salvation comes from my one Self.
Its thoughts are mine to use.” (9:2-3)
