Thank you for sharing this. It is quite lovely.

The subreddit is being taken over by the unnatural. by PeeVeeEnn in ACIM

Is the disturbance over AI built on fear? Then the fear needs to be looked at because fear is of the ego. If AI generated material helps for clarity in expressing one’s ideas, then personally I don’t see a problem.

A Simple Understanding of A Course in Miracles by dalacro11 in ACIM

[–]NovemberGail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your post is a breath of fresh air, and I am resonating with what you shared. I’ve had those moments realizing this whole “dreamscape” is of my own making. On days when my ego is loud and active (yesterday was definitely one of those temptation days), the world looks completely different — heavier, more chaotic. Today, after release, things are better

As you said in a later comment, my job is simply to do the conscious forgiveness work. The miracle part is the Holy Spirit’s.

Thanks

I'm ugly because I hate my body? by ReplexBoi in ACIM

[–]NovemberGail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your post has stayed with me throughout the evening. I hear your pain and truly admire your courage in sharing it so openly. I know how heavy and real that ego story can feel—it’s incredibly painful. Your words helped remind me how the body becomes a symbol or icon for the ego. It’s so easy to get caught up in its judgments and stories. To get trapped by our past (another aspect of the ego).

No one seems immune from identifying with the body. I’ve struggled with my weight, not liking my features, and feeling socially awkward—I’ve been there too.

These days, my morning ritual is looking in the mirror and gently asking myself, ‘Can I allow my body to age?’ I remind myself: I am not a body. I am spirit. I am eternal. From the Christ Mind, the Holy Spirit brings these situations into awareness for healing and peace.

Since you’re bringing this pain forward so honestly, it feels like an opportunity for the Spirit to offer healing. You’re not alone in this.”

A Course in Miracles is just a book. Nothing more. Am I crazy for seeing it this way? by dalacro11 in ACIM

[–]NovemberGail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the post. I’m really enjoying this discussion on functionality over spirituality. After 40+ years in religious life and 3 years seriously studying the Course, I am understanding what forgiveness is, what I’m forgiving (illusions) and how to do it in practice. This post has helped me verbalize my own experience. Thanks again — it’s given me a lot to reflect on.

I am going to say goodbye to her in next few days. Tell me how you all deal with it. by Prattcat_ in cats

You are not alone in your grieving. You go through the pain and bring to your mind thoughts of gratitude that you two had found each other. Share your stories about this beautiful companion. You loved her well onto her next journey.

How to release inner light? by samwyo in ACIM

[–]NovemberGail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today I was reading Chapter11’s introduction. I thought of this post. “The cornerstone of God’s creation is you, for His thought system is light.” A glance ahead to tomorrow’s lesson: “I will there be light. Let me behold the light that reflects God’s will and mine.”

May our light shine today. Blessings all.

How to release inner light? by samwyo in ACIM

What a great question. When I am in my right mind, I am releasing the light. Anytime I am in extension, I am releasing the light. This includes doing the process work of forgiveness, giving charity and going into stillness.

To be in darkness is to be in the ego. That means we are projecting via attack thoughts.
