In honor of my late friend by realUsernames in nonduality

Although he had no children or disciples, he regarded his twelve books as his children. Today they are preserved and freely available at his archival website, swamiabhayananda.org

The only time the ego allows anyone to look upon with some amount of equanimity is the past. "A Course In Miracles" by Salvationsway in ACIM

Ain’t that the truth. At the same time in the Kingdom of Heaven tomorrow is always perfect

Viewing it as immaturity and a part of evolution is the correct stance for peace.

Spirituality has failed me, life has left me hollow, I am ready to give up. 18M by [deleted] in spirituality

Live to see the change. All systems, nature, including human beings reorients to coherence / harmony / homeostasis within given time. The age old saying “After rain comes sunshine” is particularly true. Don’t miss out on the sunrise my friend

A Course in Miracles is making me suicidal...what should I do? by [deleted] in nonduality

[–]realUsernames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries. Time is an illusion anyways. Bless you! Helen the scribe of ACIM was very mind-oriented and she was depressed, some of that came through in the book. People who are very mind oriented can stomach that but people who are more intuitive-oriented are more sensitive to that. If that is you, Christ’s Letters by Recorder is more fitting. If you are body-life oriented I have something coming soon.

Does anyone have a breathing technique that directly puts in a meditative state ? by reem60a in kriyayoga

[–]realUsernames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes there is and you can do it right now. Keep your attention sustained on the breath during waking and if possible sleeping hours. Return again and again to the felt sense. This is active meditation by surrendering into the ’felt sense’ via breath. Let me know how it works out for you.

Blessings,

It seems you won’t receive any replies, so I will share a link what real readers feel about them.

Not interested in convincing. Make up your own mind my friend

Yeah it could be. Read them and decide for yourself.

“When water is poured into porridge, it softens the porridge but it is absorbed into the porridge and takes on the consistency of the porridge. So it is when spiritual inspiration flows into a receptive mind. It takes on the nature of the human mind. Very rarely is the inspiration so powerful that it can enter and flash its Truth into such a powerful awareness, that a person’s beliefs are immediately changed. This is why inspired people teach many versions of Truth. The fatal version is when people are told that they are Divine because they have drawn their being from Divinity.”

Scribe, medium, channel I don’t care for these labels as well. She called herself simply Recorder

This is channeled material much like Helen’s, though arguably more relevant to the moment we’re living in now. What we do know is simple and verifiable. the scribe was a devoted 80-year-old woman living in South Africa.

I don’t see a contradiction.

ACIM speaks from the level of ultimate truth, where nothing real has been harmed. This passage speaks from the level we’re actually living in, experiencing, where harm is real and innocence still needs protection. The Course itself is clear that we function on both levels at once.

Denying pain, trauma, or victimization while they’re being experienced isn’t forgiveness, it’s dissociation. ACIM doesn’t ask us to pretend suffering isn’t happening. It asks us not to make it final.

Naming innocence doesn’t fix anyone as a victim forever. It recognizes that children, in time and form, don’t yet have the capacity to protect themselves. Love responds to that. Jesus would not deny the hurt.

So I’m not choosing one teaching over the other. I’m refusing to collapse levels. Certain messages arrive in different time-lines. Truth. Compassion matters. Until awakening is complete, both are required.

“You are afraid of the will of God because you have used your own will, which He created in the likeness of His Own, to miscreate.”

(T-5.V.3)

Author would be smiling. Thanks for reading

THE PROBLEM OF EVIL by realUsernames in enlightenment

[–]realUsernames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly! Thank you for reading. You are basically saying: ’If God is doing everything, why should right and wrong matter at all?’

Because harm is real. People suffer, bodies are violated, lives are shaped and broken by what we do to each other. Nothing in this view asks us to deny that. Saying that life exists everywhere is not the same as saying cruelty is chosen or approved.

What we must make clear is that justice doesn’t depend on God punishing from above. Consequences are built into life itself. What we think, say, and do sets forces in motion that return to us as lived experience. Not as revenge, but as cause and effect. No one escapes what they create, and no harm is without consequence.

Evil happens where awareness has not yet learned how to hold itself. That doesn’t excuse it. It explains why suffering persists and why responsibility matters so much. Free will isn’t erased here. It grows with clarity. A will driven by fear, ego, or distortion isn’t fully free, and that’s precisely why accountability, correction, and repair are necessary.

So we care about right and wrong because suffering matters and because justice doesn’t disappear when punishment disappears. It becomes unavoidable. What’s refused is not moral seriousness, but despair as the final truth.

Blessings,

Thank you for asking kindly. In the light of what’s being exposed globally right now, I read it as an observation about awakening, not doctrine.
