Commentary inspired by ACIM Lesson 22 (and Life).
©2010 Rev. David Seacord

What I see is a form of vengeance.

Do you choose to go further? To do so requires choosing to do so, again, and today. Like an extremely grimy window that must be washed more than once to become clean, this choice for Life must be continually re-choosen to 'take the ground' truly. More in a minute.

Todays idea is very simple. It says unless we are willing to choose to see God in all things everywhere, we will see illusions. Even though illusions do not actually exist, in our dream, they appear as real. So the two wings of freedom are discernment (of the real from the unreal) and non-attachment (to our beliefs, in particular). "Even to be attached to the idea of enlightenment is to go astray", says our friend the ancient Third Zen Patriarch. There, that is good news.

Now, in the dream and as a group, there is an illusion that has arisen. This email has been reported as spam by at least one receiver, perhaps more, enough, in any case, that may impact to silence this voice. This is, right on time, a signal to course-correct/morph. It is possible someone is having a nightmare and not calling for help. It is possible someone was simply not being attentive. In any case, certainty is required and therefore action is required. For me, action means I must find a better delivery pathway than bcc email protocol and that 'may take time'. (Options/Suggestions/Help Welcome). For you, it means you must re-subscribe or un-subscribe and let me know you choose to hear this voice or not. Please do it now. There is no other time anyway. Click reply, type re-subscribe/Commentaries or un-subscribe/Commentaries, click send. It will be done as you say.

If it takes more than today to correct this, keep doing the Course. I'll be back (but remember, you can hear this Voice inside yourself too, you know). If you leave us, walk in beauty.

Namaste,

David
