Thanks for asking the questions that can come to your brain, even though they seem “rather peculiar” to you. In Enlightenment all observed suffering has vanished, for what but wrong-mindedness appeared to produce the misperception called pain.
Pain was the dream that Christ could leave a Warm Creator’s Mind. “If suffering is true there’s no God. If God is actual there is number pain.”(W-190.3) The latter is true since Lord does not have any opposite. Enlightenment entails number suffering or displeasure acim about ANYTHING, for Enlightenment is Pure, Regular Happiness, Peace, Flexibility, and Joy. Being Regular, Enlightenment understands perhaps not of change. The impression of vulnerability and changing feelings went as well. There’s no vanity to fall “back into.” Heart Abides in mild Love. All suffering is over Now and nothing remains but a benefit of Stillness.
The Holy Nature is the reminder that Life is Eternal. The Present Moment may be the gate way to Eternity. The entire world of pictures was an environment of illusion. Pictures are therefore neutral to the Holy Spirit. These were “neutralized” the instant they seemed to arise.
What does this suggest in terms of your second problem? You can’t eliminate what has never lived, and in the Sacred Spirit’s Perspective of forgiveness harm is impossible. Bodies were never created and never die because the planet of photographs may be the past. It is difficult to locate beginnings and endings in a software that’s already written and around extended ago. There’s no living in images. Here is the meaning of “Maintain no graven images before the Master Thy God.” All images were built to hidden the Reality from consciousness, and they can just be understood as one illusion. If illusions could be divided up into living and dead, normal and inorganic, animate and inanimate Enlightenment could be impossible. For what’s Enlightenment but Pure Oneness, much beyond the chance of department of any kind? The split brain was the illusion. Find never to task the separate mind to forms and contact some forms alive and some types dead. Lord understands not form. The split brain seemed to be the “killer” illusion, yet the Sacred Heart tells the resting brain that what’s full and specific can never BE split. In Heaven Mind is One Nature, and actually regarding that earth forgiveness reflects that Oneness. The understood world realizes the unity of the relieved brain and considers that there is nothing “outside” with this single mind which desires gently a pleased, delicate dream. The goal of ACIM is always to desire softly of a sinless world. That goal is a lot more than possible, it’s inevitable!
In terms of my appearing diet, “consume what’s served” is the Advice I was presented with from the Holy Spirit a long time ago. Join together with your brother and let number notion come involving the Enjoy you share. That Advice has not changed. “Dinner” is obviously a foundation for discussing the Pleasure of the Living Moment. What the world calls “breathing” and “eating” and “drinking” and “sleeping” are actually all the same in the Enlightened State. The Healed Perspective considers the sameness of everything because each of them share the exact same Function: forgiveness. That Perception is not “personal,” for in specific notion nothing is personal. God isn’t any respecter of persons. I practically can not “take” an animal’s “life” since Living is Spirit and can only just be expanded or Given as Lord Gives. “Take” does not have any indicating in my mind and since creatures haven’t “lived” it’s difficult that they may “die.” The belief expressed in thinking “professionally take an animal’s life” has several underlying assumptions which are false. In right-mindedness it’s obvious that some ideas are strengthened as they are provided away or provided, and “taking” a “life” or anything more doesn’t have meaning. All that I provide is directed at mySelf, and in providing there is no loss, no sacrifice, and nothing is actually taken away from wholeness and unity. The instructor of Lord does not need whatever can’t be provided away. Such may be the Joy of miracles! Thinking vegetables be seemingly flung every where, however there is never a good view back to see where the seeds land. The seeds are never for an “different,” and since giving and receiving are the exact same the mind receives the gifts it gives. That is really the food you seek for underneath the ego’s questions.
The only real question that require be requested is really a issue that’s certainly not silly at all: Am I ready to understand that God’s Will and My Own are the Same? God’s Can for Me is for Great Happiness. And what but this Can is the Will of Christ? Fortunately, nothing can change Endless Love. Thank You God!
