In this audio recording, CA Brooks and Bruce Rawles talk about a favorite quote in chapter 22, section III from ACIM‘s Text which emphasizes its pure non-dual curriculum’s emphasis on the content of the mind and how that emphasis allows the myriads forms in our surreal space-time dreams to be used for a gentle, peace-promoting purpose rather than malicious, mean-spirited outcomes.
“These eyes, made not to see, will never see. For the idea they represent left not its maker, and it is their maker that sees through them. What was its maker’s goal but not to see? For this the body’s eyes are perfect means, but not for seeing. See how the body’s eyes rest on externals and cannot go beyond. Watch how they stop at nothingness, unable to go beyond the form to meaning. Nothing so blinding as perception of form. For sight of form means understanding has been obscured.” – T-22.III.6:7 (emphasis added)
We’re responsible for our choice of teachers – the purpose of either shared or separate interests that leads to either reinforcing the sanity of a classroom of forgiveness or the insanity of a prison of condemnation and withholding an evaluation of eternal innocence from everyone and everything. This doesn’t deny behavioral or sensory data, or common sense, but instead uses that data (Holy Spirit’s translation rather than ego’s misinterpretation) for the kindly release of all rather than the sentencing of guilt from ego’s kangaroo court of incomplete, immature information and trying to make decisions blindly.
This latest audio conversation is another example of CA’s excellent regular ACIM internet radio program on 12Radio devoted to the spirituality of A Course in Miracles.
