so perhaps the most tenderly expressed lessons of A Course in Miracles, beautiful and loving words we gently say to ourselves with such deep conviction - that I will not hurt myself again today. Finally, nearing the end of the lessons we come to the crux of the matter. We've been hurting ourselves, holding a false claim against the world, believing that anything exists outside us that could ever bring us harm. This is a story told by the ego, a belief in blame and judgement projected upon others, but only really festering deeply within ourselves.
our salvation from this harm is forgiveness.
this is where we turn to the Holy Spirit for help, that part of our mind that only sees the loved shared between us, indeed, that's all it ever recognizes. It's here ask for our story to be reinterpreted in a truthful way, our perceptions healed. We harm only ourselves with our judgments, all of our blame is returned to us, and our every resentment is a self-inflicted wound.
I will not hurt myself again today.
and that's the entity of A Course in Miracles, it's the lesson a Buddha, and every great master. Our story of the world, our false perceptions of others - traps us in self created misery.
Just a Yogi
