You are blessed beings; indeed, I am that one that you
know as Jesus.
And I have a lot to say do not worry, dear one. There
is always more and more and more. Your journey here is an interesting one, as
we say each day, and we want you to understand that your job is not to solve
the problems of the world. This is something that many of you are feeling as a
burden upon your shoulders now. ‘What can I do to save the planet?’
Well what we want you to understand - and this is
going to be very challenging for some of you - is that the world arises from
within you. So if you start trying to change the outside world without changing
the inside world you are wasting your time, as our dear one says: ‘It's like
moving the chairs around on the Titanic. You need to change the direction of
the ship not the chairs’.
So when you are rallying behind causes - and we want
you to understand that we are not saying that you should not rally behind
things that you believe in - but what we want you to do is not fight against
that which you don't want, but fight for that which you do want, because energy
given to, in resistance, to what you don't want, is energy given to the system (that
you don't want). You are not investing your tremendous creative powers and co-creative
powers - the powers that you exert when you gather together to bring into being
something you do want, you are wasting those powers and co-creative powers on
the very system that you hate. And so, this is a fundamental law of creation
that you must understand if you want to change the world. The phrase ‘be the
change that you want to see in the world’ begins that process. If you want
a kinder more loving world, be kinder and more loving. But for most of you that
is not enough. You feel that you are kind and loving. But A course in miracles-practice
will take you deep in your mind, it will take you into areas of thought and in
a conversation, that you have never bothered to go into, or you have never
valued because you think it's secret. You think that if you have a thought ‘I
don't love myself’ or ‘I don't like myself’ or ‘I'm stupid’, you say these self-derogatory
things all the time in your own minds, you think that they are not powerful. They
are as powerful as saying that out loud to somebody else. You would never say
that out loud to somebody else. You would never look at someone and say: ‘I
think you're stupid and I think you're ugly.’ But many of you say it to
yourselves, believing that, on some level, it is harmless because it is
secreted away inside your mind. But what we want you to know here is that the
material physical world that you see, your society, your culture, your families,
your work, every single one of those things began as an idea of thought in the
mind. It became physically manifested because you kept investing in it and when
you keep investing in things like ‘I am unworthy’, you will manifest in front
of you beings and systems that treat you as if you are unworthy.
So, we are talking here about this insidious inner
voice that is constantly judging and attacking you. That exists within your
mind because of the training that you have had. It can begin with parents who
are critical or unloving or judgmental. It then goes into school systems that
tell you that you are stupid because you got a ‘D’ or that you must conform to
be considered good.
This is a fundamental teaching of your society. You
must conform to be considered good when you are six years old and seven years
old and made to line up behind the classmates. And you have to get up and down
according to bells and you're never allowed to say anything in disagreement
with the teacher. Years and years and years of this kind of training have led
you to become beings who are afraid to speak up.
So, we want you to understand this. We want you to
understand that you must retrain yourselves into believing that your good
regardless of your conformity. And this is what this entire situation in which
you find yourself today, is reflecting back to you, it is showing you and some people are astonished at how
compliant people are … we are not
astonished at all, we are not astonished at all because, we know what goes on
in your minds. We know what goes on behind the scenes of your social face and
so we want you to begin to address that today, the inner thoughts that you have.
Now those of you that have been A course in miracle-
students for some time have been doing this.
But we want you to double down on your practice today, we want you to
double down on your practice of these unloving ideas and thoughts that you
entertain about yourself or others in your mind. Whenever you're walking along
the street and you look at someone and you judge them ‘they are too fat, they
are too thin, they are too beautiful, they are showing off their money, they
shouldn't be going out with that person, he's to this, she is to that, …’, stop yourself and turn it around in your mind
immediately and say: ‘We are all valuable in the eyes of God, every single one
of us, regardless of how much money we have or how we appear.’ You must begin
to stop these unconscious judgments and bring forth a more loving demeanor
within your own heart and mind. This is not about showing off for others how
great you are, this is about calling yourself out on your own hatefulness.
Some of you have who not done A course in miracles
will say: ‘I am not hateful, I never do things like that.’ But we challenge you
today to pay attention to your inner dialogue, pay attention to what you say to
yourself in the mirror, pay attention to yourself, pay attention to what you
say to yourself, when you're getting dressed, pay attention to what you say to
yourself as you head off for work, pay attention, pay attention, pay attention.
These are not secret thoughts. They are emitting a frequency of unlovingness
that will return to you a thousand-fold. Your universe reflects back to you
that what you are doing and this is where this idea of ‘bad things happening to
good people’ and good people being very, very confused. They help charities, they
help little old ladies across the road, they are kind and generous to other
people, but their internal dialogue is hateful and they do not understand how
creative it is, how pervasive it is and how powerful it is.
So that is your assignment this morning, to listen to
your inner dialogue today and stop yourself the second you hear something unloving
in your mind, turn it around and say the opposite as if it's true. It will
eventually become true for you. But today it will feel perhaps like a lie. But
stop and listen to those inner voices. They are the ones that are miscreating
unconsciously out in the world in front of you.
I am that one that you know Jesus and I'll speak to
you again later today.
I apologize for the little loop that was my friend
messaging me on Skype. I forgot to turn my Wi-Fi off. So lesson learned Wi-Fi
is off tomorrow. Thank you for joining me today and I'm going to be vigilant
for any unloving thoughts I have today and I encourage you to do the same. I would like to make one mention here today as
Jesus kept his transmission pretty short. I do have a new book available on
Amazon. It is called ‘A year of forgiveness’ and it is an illustrated
compendium of all of the transcriptions of the Jesus commentaries from last
year. It is available right now on a kindle format full color, kindle format if
you want to have it digitally. Come late October it will be available in
hardcopy and I'm very excited about hardcopy because it's an officially
sanctioned companion text to a course in miracles and it has what I always
wanted which is gold edges on the book. So that's my, the gift that my
publisher gave me. I said to her I
wanted gold edges on the book and she agreed. So I would really love your
support for my publisher. She has been an amazing support for me through the
years. She took me on as a completely unknown author and she has brought
thousands and thousands of these books into the world for everyone to have. So
please consider purchasing that book either in kindle format which you can do
now or in hardcopy which will come out at the end of October. I really thank
you for your support. I'll see you later
today bye
I am that one you know as Jesus and I will speak to
you again later today.
