A COURSE 
IN

MIRACLES

This is a course in miracles.

It is your path of enlightenment.

It Is Your Journey

Without Distance

In The Space of An

Instant of Reality

A Course In Miracles

This is a required course.

Only the time you take it is voluntary.

Free will does not mean that you can

establish the curriculum.

It means only that you can elect what

you want to take at a given time.

This course does not aim at teaching

the meaning of love…

for that is beyond what can be taught.

It does aim, however, at removing the

blocks to the awareness of love’s presence

which is your natural inheritance.

The opposite of love is fear, but what is

all-encompassing can have no opposite.

Nothing real can be threatened.

Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the peace of God.

Miracle Mind Training

The purpose of this workbook is to train

your mind in a systematic way to a

different perception of everyone and

everything in the world.

It is doing these exercises that will make

the goal of this course possible.

An untrained mind can accomplish nothing.

Transfer of training in true perception

does not proceed as does transfer of

the training of the world.

If true perception has been achieved in

connection with any person, situation or

event, total transfer to everyone and

everything is certain.

Remember that one exception held

apart from true perception makes its

accomplishments anywhere impossible.

The very nature of true perception

is that it has no limits.

It is the opposite of the way you see now.

“How To Heal The Sick

   And Raise The Dead”

Episode 1

with Master Teacher

We’re going to take a step that I’d like to have you share with me, and if you’re tempted to do so, why don’t you succumb to the temptation?  The idea that you’d be willing to fundamentally accept the title of the video I’m going to attempt to convey in the association of the power of our minds to the capacity to heal would have attracted you sufficiently to even watch it is the sign of the maturity that has occurred in your mind and body and heart in regard to a commitment that you made to undergo an experience of healing of the aggregation of your form association, a systematic way to discover the offering of the power of mind, my mind, that I am sharing with your mind in the certainty that our minds in a moment of union and joining contain the power, initially with forgiving love, which extends to a purpose of correspondence that offers us the enlightenment of our minds. 

So I was talking this morning to the author of the Course, Jesus, our Jesus of Nazareth, and we talked about an issue of actually trying to present to you at this time and place the devices that we employ through the practice of the mind training to bring about instantaneous solutions to objective problems that you have held in your conceptual identity to keep from recognizing yourself as whole and perfect.

So I said to him, “What title will I give this?”  And he said, “Well, since it’s a ‘how do’ course, why don’t you entitle it ‘How To Heal The Sick And Raise The Dead’?”  And I said, “‘How To Heal…?  You want me to entitle the video ‘How To Heal The Sick And Raise The Dead’?” 

He’s axiomatic.  The process of the Savior’s mind is axiomatic, with an assumption from the New Testament that you are aware that all of the power is given unto you in Heaven and earth, and the procedure that he employs and offers to us that I have accepted and undergone my experience of this new capacity is nothing but a demonstration of the power of my mind, which is inherent in all of us. 

And he gave me a couple Biblical references like “All power is given unto you in Heaven and earth” and “There’s nothing you can’t do” and “Moving mountains is the least you can do” and “Who wants to walk on water when you can ascend to the Kingdom?” and a few other directions concerning the inevitable capacity of a phenomenal reassociation of ourselves that brings about this healing process.  So we decided to title it “How To Heal The Sick And Raise The Dead.” 

Since the aspects contained within the intervals of the exchange on this video, wherever you may be watching this, are instantaneous conversions to wellness, in a particular sense it’s not possible for you to be watching the instructions that I will be giving you on this video and not feel the joy and freedom of your own resurrection in a proclamation that you are whole and perfect as you were created. 

Now, the employment of the fundamental teachings of the saviorship of Jesus are to the attention of the necessity to understand that sickness and pain, even unto death, is a decision that you have made concerning your own objective association.  Once more, as Sermon on the Mount says, it’s very necessary for you to forgive the obstacles of your mind that direct your attention to a continuing disease of sequentiality of mind association that defined you, so that you can see your own perfection. 

So the invitation that we have now, that we’re inviting you as a former objective association of our minds, to enter into this instant of conversion is nothing but an offering of the necessity for forgiveness of the loneliness and pain and loss that have given you the limited faculty of the ego of your conceptual mind that constantly demands attention to your body.  And that conversion is what’s occurring on this video right now.

In the last effort, at the conclusion of Lesson 200, there was a description of what healing is in regard to forgiveness, or expressing the certainty that you need do nothing in order to be whole and perfect as you were created, and in fact, the undoing of your relationship with yourself in this dark form cannot not occur if you will momentarily invite your enemies to come into the aspects and the intervals of light energy form that define us.  (That was very well done.)

Now, what occurred at that moment?  You were healed. 

The idea of raising the dead is nothing but an idea that when you are in a relationship in time of a correspondence with old associations, you are in a particular sense dead. 

So we’re going to review just the last two paragraphs of a definition of forgiveness, so you can see that you need do nothing.  And we can then proceed to the idea that the healing light energy surrounds you, and when you momentarily forgive the aspects of your mind, you can see it.

Listen. 

So all of your ideas of death and loneliness are nothing but an unforgiving thought.

Listen. 

What Is Forgiveness?

An unforgiving thought does many things.

In frantic action it pursues its goal...

twisting and overturning what it sees

as interfering with its chosen path.

Why?

Distortion is its purpose...

and the means by which it would

accomplish it as well.

It sets about its furious attempts

to smash reality...

without concern for anything that would

appear to pose a contradiction to its

point of view.

Now let’s look at how healing occurs.

Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still...

and quietly does nothing.

It offends no aspect of reality...

nor seeks to twist it to appearances it likes.

It merely looks, and waits, and judges not.

Are you listening?

He who would not forgive must judge...

for he must justify his failure to forgive.

He who would not forgive must do – what? – judge, for he must justify his failure to forgive.

But he who would forgive himself must

learn to welcome truth exactly as it is.

Here we go.

Do nothing...

and let forgiveness show you what to do,

through Him Who is your Guide,

your Savior and Protector, strong in hope,

and certain of your ultimate success.

Do nothing, then, and let forgiveness show you what to do, through Him Who is your Guide, your Savior, your Protector, strong in hope, and certain of your ultimate success.

He has forgiven you already...

for such is His function, given Him by God.

Now must you share His function,

and forgive whom He has saved...

whose sinlessness He sees...

and whom He honors as the Son of God.

So what has been given you is a single moment of the entirety of forgiveness contained within the conflict of your own conceptual association which offers you an instant relief from your protection of sickness. 

Shall we look at this together?  You want to take a look at what I’m actually offering you here?  You listen to me there, you, that body form.  I want you to say this with me because this is part of the healing process.  This is part of the offering that I am giving you in the certainty that our minds can communicate to each other the idea of our own perfection, since we are whole and perfect as God created us.  Okay?

So we’re going to have to try it, aren’t we?  We’re going to have to look at how you pay attention to yourself in the direction of what we call your ego in your determination to represent yourself as that body.  Shall we try it? 

Say to me, “Sickness is a decision.” 

What have you got to lose?  Look at me.  What have you got to lose in the idea that I am offering you, through the power of your own decision mechanism, a capacity of light energy that allows you to change your mind about what you want to be in association with the attention that you have given yourself in the sequential time episode that you use to demonstrate your sickness and loneliness and aging process. 

Everything that is happening to you at this time and in this place is a decision that you have made based on a correspondence you found in your own mind.  What I am offering you is a light – light – of a converting idea.  We call this a miracle, isn’t it? 

Remember what we decided?  The miracle of light is all around you right now.  But you’re holding on to a defensive mode that expresses your need to protect yourself from your enemy.  And we’ll remind you again through our Savior Jesus that your enemy is only yourself. 

The ideas that you have about the particulars of your own mind continue to demonstrate to you the idea that you can actually get old and get sick and die in that body.  Here I am now, looking at you within your determination to be that body and offering you my certainty of your eternal youth. 

Do you like the idea that you could be eternally young?  Look at me.  It’s impossible for you to age and get old and represent yourself as an idea of a species in this little containment of dark form unless it is your decision to do so.  I’m going to flash it up onto the screen now and read it to you directly, so you can hear once more the power that I’m expressing that is available to you.  Listen to this. 

It’s Lesson 152, isn’t it?

LESSON 152

The Power Of Decision Is My Own.

No one can suffer loss unless it be his own

decision. 

See?  You can’t lose, unless you decide you want to.

No one suffers pain except his choice elects

this state for him. 

No one can grieve nor fear nor think him

sick unless these are the outcomes that

he wants. 

No one can grieve nor  can he fear nor think him sick unless – what? – these are the outcomes that he wants.  Are you listening?

And no one dies without his own consent. 

Could you hear that?  You want to look at that with me? 

Nothing occurs but represents your wish...

and nothing is omitted that you choose. 

Here is your world, complete in all details. 

Here is its whole reality for you. 

And it is only here salvation is.

So here we are in this time and place, and I’m trying, through an effort of love and forgiveness, to get you to express your certainty that you can change your mind about who you thought you were and instantly be whole and healed. 

One of the problems you have with the idea of instantaneous communication, what we call “quantum healing,” or that at any moment you can decide to be whole and perfect within the aspects of the forms of space/time and that it’s true because it’s an idea you have in your mind, say, that you could travel out into the universe, obviously you can’t do it if you’ve confined yourself to a carbon, hydrogen and oxygen association surrounded by the nitrogen cloud that we’ve talked about and actually believe that this is life.

But remember what we’re talking about now, that you’re looking at me for the first time as an aspect of a possibility within your own mind that will give you the power of light to change your mind if you choose, since that power of light and love is what we’re actually sharing. 

The problem you’ve had….  I just saw you have that experience.  Remember that the disease that you are naming within your own mind that the physicians of death have told you that you’re suffering from is nothing but an idea that you have in your own mind.  It’s impossible that if you have an idea of what constitutes a malfunction within your hydrogen-carbon association that you do not have a remedy for it that then expresses the solution to the littleness of the containment of yourself that justifies the continuation of that disease. 

What did we just read?  That when you came into the idea of sequential reality, based on the species of man as you represent yourself, the inevitable and continually occurring outcome of your separation from the Totality of creative reality was – death. 

What did we just read?  Say to me….  Let’s try it a little bit.  We’ve been practicing this a lot.  Say to me, “I don’t think I’m going to die anymore.” 

Is this sort of a dare?  Maybe it’s a double dare.  Maybe it’s the idea that you would actually share with me my certainty that death is impossible. 

You say to me, “How does this guy know death is impossible?”  I’ve died lots of times.  Death is an idea that’s in my mind, and every time I’ve had a death experience, I have realized for a moment that I can’t die, just as you have, but it’s very difficult for you to recall it.  Because you connect death to an experience of pain and death, you put it off within the sequentiality of your own mind, and obviously it’s going to overtake you finally because it’s the outcome that you have asked for in your own sequential association.  Not only is that true, but you actually employ the power of your mind as a human being to demonstrate to me your capacity to stay in that little body and get old and die. 

Look at me a minute.  I’m a healing image in your own mind, offering you the wholeness and perfection that represents the entirety of the universe.  The decision and the power of your mind that you can employ at this moment, based on a very rapid conversion of the idea of the memories that you brought with you into this idea of getting old and dying will show you instantly that any idea that you have ever had of joy or happiness or peace or the sharing of love with each other is available to you at this instant, and – are you listening to me? – it will not be based on the old outcomes of loneliness and pain that you use to justify your joy.

I was sharing Thanksgiving with some of my beloved ones from out of time just this last week, and all of us are very certain there is no death.  The continuum of time that I am representing to you is a gathering where we come together with the certainty that there is no death.  Any animosities that we hold about each other, any grievances that we care to bring to the table, are immediately released by the certainty that if we retain them, we will be forced to undergo another experience of pain and loneliness that constituted our definition of the grievance that we held against each other.  This is the message, once again, of Jesus. 

So what’s been occurring here, in this first thirty minutes?  And we’ll be wrapping it up and….  Man!  If you can take another half hour of this, we’re going to come back and we’re going to actually begin to demonstrate some healing to you.  Why are we able to do it?  Because of a decision that you can make.  But you listen carefully.  First, within your own mind you had to decide that you didn’t want this.  It had to occur to you: “Wait a minute!  Wait a minute!”  Remember the practice?  “Wait a minute!  I’m not a body.” 

Say that to me.  Say, “I’m not a body.” 

Yes.  Is that true?  Yes.  Need you believe it?  No, but it certainly would help if you did, because you’re not one.  And the idea that you’re not a body has freed you in the energy of the light association of healing that surrounds you.  I’m expressing it to you if we have permission to release this video.  And we have a go on it because of the certainty that you can perform the magnitude of instantaneous communication that would dissolve instantly the idea of the aspects of light form that constituted the projection of your false idea about yourself.  They’re no longer prevalent within the idea that you occupy this body, so that your expression, “I am not a body,” is a part of the healing process because only your idea of a body could get sick or old, and the idea of your body has heretofore been what you thought you were.

This is the basic teachings of the Savior Jesus, who informs you in a very emphatic way that you are not who you think you are, that who you thought you were, as separated from the Kingdom of God in Its entirety, is not you and that you know it. 

So in that sense all I’m doing is reminding you of a memory of wholeness that is contained within the aspects of light and power consciousness that are a part of your mind.  I am helping you momentarily lay down the burden of the forms of your mind association that constitute the enclosure of the idea that you can suffer sickness and loneliness.  Why?  Death – death, the emotional involvement that you have concerning the humanness of you – is an idea.  Okay?

We’re going to leave you for a moment because I’m beginning to see that the light idea of what surrounds you at this time and place cannot not be a decision that you have made at this time to begin to represent yourself as free of the bondage of the body.  Okay?  There is nowhere in the converting mechanism where there is a comparison of the ideas you have about yourself as that human being and the transient moment when you cross out of the dark forms of an idea of termination within your temporal mind identity where there is a communication.  You will either be in the world that you just discovered there, or you’ll be back down into this world, where you continue to bind yourself as getting old and dying.

So the miracle of eternal life is all around you, and you’ve looked at the first thirty minutes of a video entitled, in a particular workshop of your conceptual mind, “How To Heal The Sick And Raise The Dead.”  And the first thing you had to admit was that you were the cause of your own sickness, that there’s nothing out there that can affect you in any way except that you have made the decision that it do so.  The second idea that we have given you is that all of the power of your mind that you have employed to remain in a definition of yourself can be instantly converted by the light of the miracle that we are now expressing together. 

Remember that God is the Mind with which you think, so that God’s power is yours.  God goes with you wherever you go because you cannot be separated from what everything is.  So we’re going to say it together and I’ll see you in just a moment:

God bless us, every one.

“How To Heal The Sick

   And Raise The Dead”

Episode 1  Part Two

with Master Teacher

 So we’re back and we brought with us this new light that’s beginning to shine forth from each one of us in the recognition that….  Shall we practice a little bit?  I can see the brightness that’s beginning to appear in the maturation of your body-mind identity. 

Say to me, “I’m the light of the world.”  I didn’t hear you.  This is the teachings of our Savior Jesus.  “I am the light of the world.”  Why don’t you just say it to me?  What have you got to lose?

If we’re going to talk about this, we have to talk about it with the idea that your conceptual form, the direction you have given yourself in the projections of your own mind, are giving you a dark reflection of yourself, very simply because the intervals of time that represent your old memory associations have confined you to this little package of nothingness. 

Once more:  You’re not who you thought you were.  See?  There you did it!  You release that defense, and now it’s easier for you to say, “I am the light of the world.”  Say it.  Yes.  I’ll give you time.  Say it.  It’s exciting.

How do you know that you’re the light of the world?  You begin to have the experience of the joy of representing yourself in the certainty that you are the cause of this world.  How would you not be the light of the world if all around you are only reflections of your own thought forms about yourself? 

Now, the necessity for the healing association within your own mind is nothing but your discovery that the wholeness of you can be expressed to the world through the conversion of their individual conceptual minds.  This is why Jesus, when we talked this morning, said, “Look in the New Testament, where I said to you, ‘You will heal the sick and you will raise the dead’ – which is what this is – “‘because I have demonstrated to you with my mind the power of your mind to perform the act of conversion into the light.’” 

Can you see that?  Remember what we said about forgiveness?  It isn’t necessary that you do anything in order to be whole and perfect if the attention you have given yourself in the stricture of the idea that you are a body is preventing you from a quantum moment when you would see the light instantly.  Why?  Miracles are seen in light. 

Listen.  I’m going to read you two paragraphs from a Workbook lesson.

LESSON 91

Miracles Are Seen In Light

It is important to remember that miracles

and vision necessarily go together.

This needs repeating, and frequent repeating.

Why? 

It is a central idea in your new thought

system, and the perception that it produces.

I am repeating it to you now because it’s a central idea in the new thought system about yourself that you have discovered. 

Why?

The miracle is always there.

Its presence is not caused by your vision...

its absence is not the result of your

failure to see.

It is only your awareness of miracles

that is affected.

Why?

You will see them in the light...

you will not see them in the dark.

To you, then, light is crucial.

So to you – what? – light is crucial.  And that’s what I’m offering you.

While you remain in darkness...

the miracle remains unseen.

Thus you are convinced it is not there.

This follows from the premises from which

the darkness comes.

This follows from the premise from which the darkness comes.

Denial of light leads to failure to perceive it.

Failure to perceive light is to perceive

darkness.

And failure to perceive light is to – what? – perceive darkness.

The light is useless to you then...

even though it is there.

You cannot use it because its presence is

unknown to you.

And the seeming reality of the darkness

makes the idea of light meaningless.

Listen.  One more paragraph.

To be told that what you do not see is there

sounds like insanity.

It is very difficult to become convinced

that it is insanity not to see what is there...

and to see what is not there instead.

Why?

You do not doubt that the body's eyes

can see.

You do not doubt the images they show

you are reality.

Your faith lies in the darkness...

not the light.

How can this be reversed?

For you it is impossible...

but you are not alone in this.

And the reason you are not alone in this is this is the time and place where you made a momentous discovery.  All around, contained in the images of the reflection of your own mind has been a healer. 

Will you try this with me, because I’m representing your inevitable healership?  Try not to be concerned about who you think I am or how you think I came to know this or how you believe that I am representing myself as some human being inhabiting this little alcove of death and attempting to show you an alternative contained within our relationships.  As a healer, as a raiser of the dead, as a transforming association of your mind in a direct communication of who we are, available to you at this instant is this alternative, because this is the time and the place where you have chosen to let the conversion of the entirety of your space/time effort as separate from reality occur.

Our Savior Jesus, who is part of this instruction, said to me this morning, “Remind them first that all power is given unto them in Heaven and earth, and then remind them that what they bind within their own conceptual minds as the son of man will be bound in Heaven.”  All right?  What you bind here is going to be bound in Heaven because you’ve constructed your own self-identity to the idea of that body.  All right? 

Now, your return to Heaven, to the Source of your reality, is obviously inevitable because it’s already occurred, and the idea that that converting mechanism of light energy is all around you requires nothing but – what? – a moment of your defenselessness of your determination to represent yourself in the capacity of the power of your mind to get old and to get sick and to die. 

So we’re at a point where we might as well look at the entirety of the teaching, and I think I’ll look with you at it.  One of the great lessons that you’re going to learn in the conversion of your own mind is how ridiculous, how insane, how unsatisfyingly unproductive is the idea that you would have to be a human being and tread your weary way within the aspects, the intervals of sequential time that have defined you with a capacity to eliminate yourself. 

The idea that you have formulated yourself and are using power within your own mind to demonstrate your bodily capacity in slow time is what the idea of death is.  Can you see this with me?  The idea of sickness, the idea of loss, the idea of the healing that’s about to occur right there, the idea that you’re old, the idea that the memories that you hold about yourself as a body are lost to you, except in a retrospect that guarantees you that you can be born into this world, that you can occupy that body and that you can then get old. 

You, right there, in the nursing home, look at me.  The memory that you just had that we shared of the Fifties, the memory of joy that we shared of the Fifties, is with you right now.  What I’m trying to show you is that the instants of our sharing of that memory do not have to be connected to the idea of your aging process.  Look at this.  Okay?

Now, you may have any thought that you choose to have within your own pertainment of yourself, but there’s no reason in Heaven and earth why that energetic thought about yourself should not be one of happiness. 

Look at me.  Shall I sit down there, next to you, and show you how we can assume new authority of love and forgiveness in the realization that getting old and dying is impossible, the light of my mind that I am offering you as what I guess you term, logistically, in a longevity sense, an old body?

Remember what we said before?  Let’s try it again.  Say to me, “I’m not a body.” 

Yes.  I appear to be sitting in this wheelchair.  I appear to be faced with an impossible situation.  I have organized my mind in such a way that all of the solutions that I seem to find only lead me inevitably to my own termination, and I’m at the point of despondency, where I am no longer going to entertain the idea in my mind that not available to me at this instant in the miracle of the revision of my mind, being shared by this healer, the one who raises the sick, heals the sick and raises the dead….  Or raises the sick and heals the dead….

Now, death is an idea that you have held in your mind about yourself like you have any other ideas in association of who you think you are and who I am certain that you are not.  Okay?  I am offering to you at this time and in this place a sudden, bright reassociation of your mind that parts the veil of the idea of the dark form that had caused you to believe that when you stepped into that darkness that you would be somehow eliminated and would end up back in a continuing association of yourself, searching for a solution within the enclosure of your own mind.

Listen.  You have been repeating over and over again the idea of sequential time in your mind.  What I am offering you….  And I have no regard to how old your body is, but I do have regard to the memories that are contained within your mind, because there’s no reason whatsoever why any memory that you have about yourself should not be a happy one.

In reality pain and loneliness and death cannot be shared because they cannot be pertained to the entirety of the association of the Love of God or the creation of the Totality of the minds that we share.

Yes, I did help you right there with the passage of the certainty that in the particulars of an instant of reality we recognize together the totality of this moment, when we departed the world. 

Never mind the dead ones.  Never mind the ones that are sitting around you.  You’re watching this healing video.  Accept the certainty of love that we are offering each other together.

Are you listening to me as a healer?  My salvation as a healer depended on your recognition of the perfection of our self, and this is where the mind training has brought us.  Jesus said to us, “Go out, therefore, and heal the sick and raise the dead.”  He said, “Greater things will you do than I have done.”  The new-found ability in you through forgiveness of the idea of the grievance that you have held against your brother is giving you a new assurance of a direct link with eternal Reality. 

Just for a minute now we’re going to read a definition of what death is.  I think you have an idea that death is an idea of termination.  No, that’s not true.  Any idea of temporal identity would have to contain all of the defenses that you feel are necessary in your mind to forestall the inevitable. 

Listen to this.

I want you to repeat with me, and we’ll read it together.  Say to me, “There is no death.”  Now say, “The Son of God is free.” 

Now let’s read it together. 

LESSON 163

There Is No Death.

The Son Of God Is Free.

Death is a thought that takes on many

forms... often unrecognized.

Why?

It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety

or doubt, as anger, faithlessness and lack

of trust... concern for bodies, envy...

and all forms in which the wish to be

as you are not may come to tempt you.

All such thoughts are but reflections of the

worshipping of death as savior and as giver

of release.

You want to share with me the idea of the pain and loneliness that you’re feeling within that concept of your body identity, that are guaranteeing you that you can die?  You want to practice this with me?  This is from Paul in the Bible, the great advocate of the teachings of Jesus Christ.  Paul in Corinthians reminds you that you’re always in a death modality, and the best way to overcome death is simply don’t resist it.  All right?  Why?  The idea of death has taken on forms of you where you justify your anxiety, where you justify your fear, why you justify your chemotherapy, why you justify all of the things that you do to hold active in the pertainment of the limitation that you impose on yourself the idea that you’re a body

Shall we read them again?  Let’s go over them, and each time I offer you one of these, I want you to see that it’s what death is.  If the form of your mind expresses concern about anything that you constitute as life, it would have to be a denial of the power and the love of a singular Source of reality, Which is What we identify as God in Its entirety, with the certainty that He gave to us the power of healing and forgiveness that we’re expressing to each other.  Okay?

Here it comes up again, just that first part.  Listen to what it says.

LESSON 163

There Is No Death.

The Son Of God Is Free.

Death is a thought that takes on many

forms... often unrecognized.

Death takes many forms.  Are you ready?

It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety

or doubt, as anger, faithlessness and lack

of trust... concern for bodies, envy...

and all forms in which the wish to be

as you are not may come to tempt you.

There is no death.  Okay?  The idea that we would actively request as part of the healing process that you deny death begins to show you the idea that in the rehearsal in this Workbook of A Course in Miracles, in the rehearsal of the idea of the power of your mind to express its certainty in a positive fashion is what the entirety of the teaching is, since the power is yours.

Notice what we’re going to do now.  We are going to deny the denial.  Okay?  Since death is a denial within a temporal idea of yourself of your own perfection and wholeness, it’s necessary for you to deny it.  And the manner in which we would deny it is to….   Look at this lesson for another moment.  We’re going to renounce death at this time. 

Listen to what it says. 

LESSON 163

There Is No Death.

The Son Of God Is Free.

Death's worshippers may be afraid.

And yet, can thoughts like these be fearful? 

If they saw that it is only this which they

believe... they would be instantly released.

If they saw that it is only this which they believe, they would be – what? – instantly released.

And you will show them this today.

Listen.

There is no death...

and we renounce it now in every form...

for their salvation and our own as well.

Why?

God made not death.

Whatever form it takes must therefore

be illusion.

This the stand we take today.

And it is given us to look past death...

and see the life beyond.

And that’s, my dear brothers, healers and raisers of the dead, what we mean by the idea that your concern for sickness, your need to seek a remedy outside yourself and use the power of your mind to justify the loneliness and death that you feel, the negative association of the mass of your correspondence of light rays which can be instantly converted, using the power of healing that we’re representing to each other right now.

What a threat this has been to you, hasn’t it?!  You want to look at me for a minute?  I’m a new vision in your correspondence of the projection of your mind, with the understanding that you have made a fundamental admission that there’s nothing outside of you.  All of the particulars that you’ve been seeing in the organization of your temporal, sequential time were actually going on all the time.  This is an idea that is as old as any pertainment of the human consciousness could be.  It’s an idea deep within you of the certainty of your own perfection.

We call this the Christ in you, don’t we?  We express it as the certainty that emerging in you now is the resurrection of your mind, is the wholeness of you.  So what are we doing?  We are raising the dead.  But you understand this:  At no single moment was this formulation of your body real, anyway.  See the energy that I’m employing now to show you how you can take your place as a healer and as a savior of this world?

So the title of this video was “How To Heal The Sick And Raise The Dead,” and I’ve shown you that the power of your mind to change your mind about who you are will instantly allow you new observations of your old projections that will enter into a union of your mind, as expressed in the moment that we have left within this temporal identity.

You’re awakening now from this dream of death.  Thank you for your patience in my uncompromising certainty that this is the time and place where you will hear this.  And the instant conversion of your body form to the certainty that you are resurrected and you are risen can come about by the sharing of the love that we’re expressing. 

“I love you” is the only healing statement that ever had to be made, and it’s one that you have made many times before.  I’m just empowering your mind with the certainty of the unconditional-ness of the power that we receive from the Totality of God. 

We hope we see you again soon.  Millions of us now are undergoing this metamorphose, and it’s an expression of our certainty that God goes with us wherever we go because God is the Mind with which we think and share eternal love.  Let’s say it together:
