 You are the restful state of divine mind. Bask in what you are deep inside. You can see it shining in the eyes of the peaceful, sparkling in their voice, and radiating in their smile. Those that follow the path of peace become wise and holy gentle. For they live in the heart of God. Holy relationship is not between people. It is simply the purpose of acceptance and non-judgment, held firmly and surely. It looks, waits, watches, and judges not. It does not seek to change the world, for holy relationship is the symbol of a forgiven world. The purpose is equally applicable to every person, place, thing, situation, and event. Love is God's will and has no object. Never mistake a symbol for anything real. For symbols are temporary and reality is eternal. All specifics are related through the Holy Spirit's purpose, but they have no relation to one another. Wholeness transcends all apparent seeming. See a golden cord as the Holy Spirit's purpose, and the beads as the specifics. Of themselves, they would just be scattered and have no meaning. You can see it in a necklace. The cord has no beginning and no end. Therefore, neither do the beads. Like the Holy Spirit's purpose, the circle is the whole, with no beginning and no end. Do not arrest your mind in choosing between illusions. The Pinocchio analogy. Time is the belief that cause and effect are separate. That is the gap. The gap that does not exist. You have put many toys in your gap. Now you believe that you could play with these toys and that you brought these toys to life. You have projected out a bunch of images, and this thing that seemed to be a static wooden puppet seems to have a life of its own. It scares you when these toys squeak and do certain things. It is as needful that you recognize you made the world you see as that you recognize that you did not create yourself. They are the same mistake. The way out of the authority problem is to come to realize I was wrong about everything. Wrong about the belief that I pulled apart from my Creator, that I could make up a world apart from God, and that I could make myself. This is the belief behind the self-improvement movement. The belief that I am an image of my own making and can improve and shape my own destiny. A car and a body seem to have a pretty strong relationship. In the world's eyes, cars are necessary for getting bodies around. Yet all the objects and skills in the world have no intrinsic meaning or use in and of themselves. The whole idea of in and of themselves is erroneous. There is no specific in and of itself. The whole world that has been constructed starts to teeter when this is accepted. Wear the symbols lightly like a smooth silk tunic. What can the belief in duality in past and future have to do with eternal love? And what could break apart love which is forever one who need only be on purpose right now? In this moment, councils to skip over the present because the past caused the present. That point is now. Can you feel that? We always arrive at this calm, restful place of clarity. It is not about finding another piece of the puzzle to solve this or that tomorrow. Spinning wheels go round and round. Why not watch the wheels instead of spinning and pretending to be caught in the spinning? The sweet icing pretends. And the people pleasing seem to serve the purpose of keeping things rolling smoothly. Then you call on the Holy Spirit and He raises all of the darkness up into awareness like a giant glacier of light forcing thoughts into consciousness. Bask in what you are deeply.
