Category: MEMORY OF THE PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE

69 The Depths of Heights, the Heights of Depths

ℑ God said: “Despite gravity, everything in the world is topsy-turvy. At this moment, as the world turns, your feet may be up and your head down, and you’re standing on your head.” HL 4984

it is difficult if not impossible, in our perception of the reality of time, to let go of the past without releasing our sense of the future, which is just a projection of the past with a small hiatus or interlude called the present. In other terms, it is impossible to bridge time (as past and future without real present) with the Present which is the Eternal Instant.

68 Should We Heal our Sense of the Future?

God said:“”Life is a story you write about yourself. Life is a story also that you witness. It is as if the story of your life writes itself, and it happens before your very eyes. You are the actor and the audience all in one.” HL 4928 ℑ

To create means to manifest instantly. Everything is accomplished in the instant. It means that the doing is included in the conception without the need of time and space and work. Art writes itself in the hand of the artist. A painting is done, music is composed, a book is written before there are physically executed.

49 God’s Particle 2: The Observing Eye

God said:”YOU ARE WHAT YOU SEE. When you see the sun, you are the sun. When you see the sun, you reflect the sun as it is. You, who are the Sun, are destined to reflect the Sun. The Sun shines brightly, and so must you. And when you begin to see beauty and innocence and love everywhere, then everyone you come across will also be a reflection of you. HL 4707

Yet, it remains difficult for us, who are conditioned by our 3-D linear thinking, to conceive that we are what we see. We can’t either expect 3-D physics to give us a scientific explanation of the phenomenon. The main reason is that when we start from consciousness, we are not looking for an explanation but for explicitness which is the deployment of its implicitness. Sameness or Oneness can only be self-explanatory, self-referential but without any tautology or redundancy.

19 The Laws of Illusions III: The Power of Negation

ℑ “The universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine.” Sir James Jeans ℑ

“God said:
God said:“In Reality, beloveds, there is no distance, not in time or in space. There is Infinity and Eternity which, on Earth, you experience in a time-frame bolstered by science on Earth. All this is scientific and beautiful, yet scientific only so far as it goes on Earth.
You perceive that you are in a dense world, yet density is the illusion you live in. Density and gravity hold you up on Earth at the same time as they hold you down. Remember, you look from various directions.”
HL 4491

18 The Laws of Illusions II: The Memory of the Present

God said:“Let’s have it out. You are an incredible Being Who hides under a mask of his own making. You transfer roles. You transferred your Heritage to Me. I am a projection of you – or, are you a projection of Me? It does get confusing, talking about Our Oneness in terms of two.” HL

“Why is the word I capitalized? There is One I, and yet a fringe of the One I babbles on the periphery.”

“Yet truth can never be forgotten by itself, and you have not forgotten what you are. Only a strange illusion of yourself, a wish to triumph over what you are, remembers not.” ACIM 21-1

17 The Laws of Illusions I: “Consciousness is not a science nor is it an art.”

God said:“What is it that has been named by the word consciousness?
Cannot consciousness describe itself? And if it cannot, why not? How can it be known or unknown and not be identified?”
HL 3242

Consciousness has the power to become unconscious of itself. This means that it can virtually forget or lose its identity but without really losing it. We could almost say that the necessity for consciousness to be perfectly One, self-conscious, indivisible contains the possibility of virtually becoming a random phenomenon, a self unconscious of itself in a seeming random world. 

13 Beyond the Realm of Causality

God said:” It is not understandable to you that there is no cause. There are reasons why and even proof given for everything, and yet I maintain that there is no cause. There is no cause.

Remembering that there is no cause will prevent you from seeking a cause. It will prevent you from demanding justice. …” HL 3231

We absolutely live in the present but, in our relative existence, we live in the past. It is like we are spending our life in a cinema, thinking that it is the real-life going on on the screen, ignoring that the “real life” is waiting for us when the movie is over.
