Hi All

 This lesson is a detailed one and I can’t say too much, even though I did find a fair amount of teasers to create a preview of this week lesson.

He really goes into details telling how the ego was created which is the first level. Then the creations of the Soul after that the separation was birthed. Then the creation of the physical universe, fear has taken the final form, lastly not leaving us there he gives some details on how we can choose differently.

There is some huge depth in this chapter. I am sorry to miss it this week. I will be in Florida with my sister who is in her final stages if this life. I will join you all again next week for Chapter 17!

 

Here is the teasers and following because I know after you read the teasers you are going to say oh my gosh I am going to have to join this group buy the book and see how I can make the transformations to have a life of LOVE! Come and join us bring a friend; make a choice to have Love instead of fear in your life.


Lesson 16 ~ The Birth of Egoic Consciousness

 

  •             The First Level of Creation  - Pure in Spirit (pg 188)  In pure Spirit you are unbounded: you are with out form. But you are not without consciousness. You are not without Self-awareness. In Spirit, there is only Self – radiant, shimmering unbounded- alone, yet lonely. Rather, filled with Self, filled with God, filled with Love.
  •       Here, is found what I have often referred to as the “real world.” Here, peace abides eternally with perfect consistency and without interruption. Here, is the living reality, which has been reflected in the sentence. I and my Father are one (pg 189)

  •       The Creation of the Soul  - Again we are now using the language that finds its source on your side of the fence; that is on the side of the fence of phenomenal existence, not on the side of the fence of Spirit, where language is hardly required. (pg 190)  

  •      Separation is Birthed - … in the first level of pure potentiality of this unique thought , that that which Intelligence is, that which Love is that which Light is. I have referred to this in A Course in Miracles as Mind, which is not merely the prattling that goes on in the human brain that you refer to as “thinking.” Mind is much vaster than that. (pg 191)

  •       The Creation of the Physical Universe - Fear is just an energy, and nothing more. In itself, it is perfectly neutral. For all events are neutral. And fear, being merely a dance or a play of energy itself, must be an entirely neutral event, until something arises to perceive and experience it differently. And what is that? The birth of the egoic consciousness. (pg 193)

  •        Fear Has Taken Its Final Form - The body is the representation of the ego.(pg 195)
  •        If you knew that you were the unlimited One, you would never fear the creation of the golden coins again. You would never believe that you must live in lack. But you are still, for the most part, clinging to the belief that you are that small little thought of separation called egoic mind, still struggling to find God, not recognizing that it is the very power of God’s presence from which you create the perception you hold of yourself. (pg 196)
  •       The very energy of seeking is the egoic energy. For only the ego can seek. Pure Spirit can only extend. And there is a huge difference. (pg 197)

  •      The End Of All Seeking Choosing To Live As Though You Are Not The Ego  - When you choose Love over fear, you must decide not to respond according to the momentum of the egoic consciousness. (pg 199)
  •     The Way of Transformation must bring you, in the end, to the quiet recognition: There is only God. Why fear if Love is here? There is only Love or fear. (pg 200)
