Question: What is Enlightenment?
Thanks for wondering the issues that come to your brain, even if they appear "somewhat peculiar" to you. In Enlightenment all observed suffering has faded, for what but wrong-mindedness looked to produce the misperception called pain.
Suffering was the impression that Christ can keep a Supportive Creator's Mind. "If pain is actual there's no God. If Lord is actual there is no pain."(W-190.3) The latter holds true because Lord doesn't have opposite. Enlightenment entails number suffering or displeasure about ANYTHING, for Enlightenment is Genuine, Constant Pleasure, Peace, Freedom, and Joy. Being acim, Enlightenment knows maybe not of change. The dream of vulnerability and fluctuating thoughts moved as well. There is number confidence to fall "straight back into." Spirit Abides in light Love. All suffering has ended Today and nothing stays but a blessing of Stillness.
The Holy Spirit may be the note that Life is Eternal. The Present Time could be the gate way to Eternity. The planet of photographs was a world of illusion. Pictures are thus neutral to the Sacred Spirit. They were "neutralized" the quick they appeared to arise.
What does this suggest with regards to the second problem? You cannot kill what's never lived, and in the Holy Spirit's Perspective of forgiveness harm is impossible. Bodies were never created and never die because the entire world of pictures may be the past. It's impossible to get beginnings and endings in a program that's currently published and over extended ago. There is number life in images. This is the meaning of "Hold no graven pictures ahead of the Lord Thy God." All images were built to obscure the Reality from consciousness, and they can just be forgiven together illusion. If illusions might be divided up into living and dead, natural and inorganic, animate and inanimate Enlightenment could be impossible. For what's Enlightenment but Pure Oneness, much beyond the likelihood of department of any kind? The split brain was the illusion. Seek not to task the separate mind to types and call some forms living and some forms dead. Lord knows maybe not form. The split mind seemed to be the "killer" illusion, yet the Sacred Nature reminds the resting mind that what's full and specific can never BE split. In Paradise Mind is One Spirit, and also with regard to this world forgiveness shows that Oneness. The forgiven world realizes the unity of the relieved brain and sees that there's nothing "outside" of the single brain which dreams lightly a happy, gentle dream. The goal of ACIM is to desire gently of a sinless world. That aim is more than possible, it is inevitable!
For my appearing diet, "eat what is served" could be the Advice I was given from the Holy Soul many years ago. Join together with your brother and allow no concept come involving the Love you share. This Guidance hasn't changed. "Dinner" is definitely a background for discussing the Pleasure of the Living Moment. What the entire world calls "breathing" and "eating" and "drinking" and "sleeping" are very the same in the Enlightened State. The Healed Perception considers the sameness of everything because they all share exactly the same Purpose: forgiveness. That Perspective is not "personal," for in good belief nothing is personal. Lord isn't any respecter of persons. I literally can not "take" an animal's "life" because Life is Nature and can only just be prolonged or Given as God Gives. "Take" does not have any indicating within my mind and because animals have never "lived" it's impossible that they might "die." The belief stated in the thought "professionally take an animal's life" has many underlying assumptions which are false. In right-mindedness it's apparent that a few ideas are strengthened since they are provided away or shared, and "taking" a "life" or some thing does not have any meaning. All that I provide is given to mySelf, and in giving there is number loss, no lose, and nothing is ever removed from wholeness and unity. The instructor of Lord does not need whatever can not be provided away. Such is the Pleasure of miracles! The thought seeds be seemingly flung every where, yet there is never a good view back again to see where in actuality the seeds land. The seeds are never for an "other," and because giving and obtaining are exactly the same your head receives the presents it gives. This is really the food you find for underneath the ego's questions.
The only problem that want be requested is a question that is not necessarily silly at all: Am I prepared to know that God's May and My Possess will be the Same? God's Will for Me is for Perfect Happiness. And what but this Will may be the Can of Christ? Fortunately, nothing can alter Timeless Love. Thank You God!
