A Course in Miracles Online – ACIM – Foundation for Awakening Mind

“Ahhhhhh Beloved One, you attended upon the DEEPEST teaching on Being Awake! You are the One Now, and nothing of linear time that appears to be thought, said, done, or imagined has anything to do with our Eternal Oneness. There is truly nothing to be “done” to prepare for the Holy Instant. Simply desire It wholly and It is Experienced Instantly.

Remember Christ has called this a journey without distance to a goal that has never changed. Remember the section in Chapter 18 of acim titled. “I Need Do Nothing” and the instruction “You are prepared. So you need but to remember you will need do nothing. It would be a lot more profitable now merely to pay attention to this than to take into account that which you should do.” (ACIM T-18.VII.5 :4-6) You will find passages in the Text, the Workbook, and the Manual for Teachers that point right to the Holy Instant, for the mind that’s willing.

In the timeless moment, the Holy Instant, you can find no contradictions. Cause and Effect are together, and thus there is no gap between them. What does this mean? It means that there is no “past” which “causes” a “future,” for only a bright, clear, shining moment remains in “memory.” It means everything exists simultaneously this very moment and that nothing can be “pulled apart” from the Whole.

The phrase “the script is written” features a pre-determined ring to it and a sense of destiny. Yes, this world was over long ago. Yes, what is past has gone. Yes, Christ is Real and ever-Present. And yes, Now is the sole “time” to be Awake. Heaven seems to be always a decision for the mind which believes in opposites, yet Atonement is accurately described as an acceptance of what is Now. You cannot “prepare” for It without “placing It in the future.” That’s why surrender is necessary. Surrender the idea that anything of the world can be figured out. Forgiven: yes! Determined: no!

The thought of channeling was but a tool of time. Channeling is therefore past. Much like all concepts of linear time, channeling was dualistic, with source and scribe seeming to be apart. Yet the Oneness of as soon as has no parts. Christ, as an Effectation of God, is One with God forever. The Oneness that’s God and Christ in God is Everything. Heaven is Abstract Light and extends as Eternal Creation. To the “extent” that any transitory concept seemed to point beyond all concepts to the Real, the concept seemed to be temporarily helpful. Yet it should be understood that the Holy Instant is Now the Point where all concepts are laid by.

Now is enough time of the Great Awakening. For the willing mind, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. The Kingdom is recognized in the Divine Silence. The Experience is beyond words. Love is really a State of Mind Which knows no “other.” Very literally, the Self is Christ is One.

You will need do nothing to Be as You already are. What You have is Who You are. God gives Everything in Creation, and Everything is You. Nothing can be included with Our Perfection in God. The Grace of God is the Gift of Creation. “I am” can not, need not, will not be earned or achieved. “I am” simply Is. “I am” is before time was. And that is “why” You will need do nothing to Be as You already are. Such is the Simple Truth.

Love and Blessings whilst the One Christ forever in the Mind of God

You are the One. And as You recognize the One, You recognize the Each of God.”
