 kind of shared Course in America's groups this idea that kind of like 12 steps, you know, everyone goes around I'm a name of so-and-so and I'm an alcoholic kind of an admission kind of thing But I've said that you could go around a course group and say, I my name is so-and-so and I have a perceptual problem Hello, and you get the next one. I my name is so-and-so. I have a perceptual problem because it takes a lot of reinforcement to continually remind your mind that you have a perceptual problem instead of a financial problem, a relationship problem, a health health of the body problem, you know, all of the many problems that seem to be in this world that seem very real are really all perceptual problems, and I was sharing last night. First of all, to be seeing a world that doesn't even exist that's kind of like going into a desert and having a mirage or hallucinating. Hallucinations are a problem But then beyond the hallucinations, when you start to divide the hallucinations up into good hallucinations and bad hallucinations, and in different hallucinations You can see this is where the ego is getting in there. It's very distorted. You know, I like these images I don't like these images and images of war and so on and so forth. Okay, come in, Dan. For a real punishment, big punishment, and it's kind of like to mitigate that punishment No, let me do it. I'll do it to myself Just don't do it to me. Please, mama, please do it, and that's kind of what the deceived mind is doing with God It so believes that God is angry, because the ego says that God is mind-training That's horses really no different than what the Bible was saying about blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God It's like purify your altar Take all the idols and the judgments off your altar because your altar is extremely powerful Whatever you put on that altar, you're gonna get a reflection of you're gonna have an experience of So it's really like Jeffrey said negating is emptying the altar and saying I would have only God Only you God your love there and then of course that reflects to everything and everyone It's not like it's God is just a single identity that's separate from all of us The one we are in love with God. We're in love with everyone That's why he said love thy neighbor as thyself Love the Lord thy God with all the heart soul in mind. So Now dreams is an interesting topic though because a lot of when you get into younging in psychology and a lot of different Psychologies you get into the same called dream interpretation. It's maybe no different than going to see your psychic or your astrologer, you know When you when you start wanting to specifically figure things out and I would say you don't really want to get So much into dream interpretation But what you do want to get in is opening to the Holy Spirit to interpret your dreams And that's what you're talking about. I think it's what the symbols be used to open your mind and to clarify things and bring healing And that's why you know when people say well so and so this was green and that means envy You know dream interpretation can get quite specific as far as colors and and symbols what they mean I would all tell people pay attention to your feelings While you're dreaming tell your mind I'm not going to get caught up into the specifics of the dream, but if I'm upset Then there's an interpretation that's going on in my dreams That is not helpful because I don't want to be upset. I want to be happy and peaceful So you would apply the same mind training that you do during the so-called daily life Activity with your mind at night and you might just have a little prayer to the Holy Spirit before you go to sleep help me to be aware of my feelings and And help me to start to be willing for a mind change Even when I'm dreaming at night. I can have a mind change. I can see things differently You can practice with nighttime dreams as well as daytime dreams And then I would say it can break through both into what I would call lucid dreaming and psychology in the last couple decades we've had this new branch of psychology called lucid dreaming Which is simply being aware that you're dreaming And that's very empowering Especially when there's a monster that seems to be chasing you and all of a sudden You're back in the observer position That body's not really me and that monster It can get the body, but it can't get me. I'm the dreamer You know, that's kind of an elusive state of being aware that you're dreaming And that's what a course in miracles is aiming at. That's what the real world is. It's simply awareness of dreaming Because if you're the dreamer, let the dream figures be as vicious as they want They can't harm you If mommy's you're in the position of knowing that you're dreaming them and And that takes a lot of mind training to start to feel that way because typically the human experience is you're so identified with the figure the body That you're extremely frightened and feel a lot of guilt in relationship to those other bodies So gently you come back. Jeffery's going to be doing a workshop called the dreamer of the dream workshop So you guys can invite him to come down and they'll Take you in step by step Into the mind it's going to be map of the mind is the first part of the workshop about you Remains as radiant as a star as pure as light and as innocent as love itself Thank you When you meet anyone remember it is a holy encounter As you see him, you will see yourself as you treat him you will treat yourself As you think of him, you will think of yourself Never forget this For in him, you will find yourself or lose yourself That was well, of course When you want only love you will see nothing else Possible that this mission fail What page is that? Text 249 and text 267 So you read it again God gave the Holy Spirit to you and gave him the mission to remove all doubts And every trace of guilt that his dear son has laid upon himself It is impossible That this mission fail Hmm Afford to laugh at ear thoughts remembering that God goes with you Thank you for letting us know Actually, I like it very much How lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's son How free from fear how filled with blessing and with happiness How lovely is the world whose Purpose is forgiveness of God's son How free from fear how filled with blessing and with happiness Look only at yourself. You cannot find yourself because that is not what you are If you look only at yourself, you cannot find yourself because that is not what Bliss of seeing love and everyone I'll help you every glimpse here, Mary now my eyes are yours Thank you.
