Before beginning our new special theme, let\u2019s review each of the special themes that we\u2019ve already contemplated.<\/p>\n
What is Forgiveness?<\/strong> Forgiveness is recognizing yourself as the unaffected Self. Therefore, \u201cwhat you thought your brother did to you has not occurred.\u201d Forgiveness \u201clooks, and waits, and judges not.\u201d<\/p>\n What is Salvation?<\/strong> Salvation is healing by \u201cfailing to support the world of dreams \u2026 it lets illusions go. By not supporting them, it merely lets them quietly go down to dust. And what they hid is now revealed \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n What is the World?<\/strong> It is a \u201cfalse perception\u201d where \u201cmechanisms of illusion \u2026 go to find what has been given them to seek.\u201d Yet, \u201call perception can be given a new purpose. \u2026 Let us not be satisfied until forgiveness has been made complete.\u201d<\/p>\n What is Sin? <\/strong>Sin is ignorance or outward focus. \u201cSin is the home of all illusions, which but stand for things imagined issuing from thoughts that are untrue.\u201d<\/p>\n What is the Body? <\/strong>\u201cThe body is a fence\u201d that seems to separate us from everything else. It makes duality seem real and makes it seem as if we experience duality directly. Therefore, it is a device of deception. However, it is also a neutral device, which means its purpose can be changed if we choose to change its purpose.<\/p>\n What is Christ? <\/strong>Christ is consciousness. It is the process of creation and the unaffected witness of creation. It is what we are. It is our Self. It is as it says in NTI Colossians:<\/p>\n \u201cThe Christ is your truth. What are you, then, if you are the Christ?<\/p>\n You are the flow that is the first and the last, the beginning and the end, the creator of all things within time. You are the heavens and the earth, the bees and the sunshine. You are the process that made all things and is all things, so that they live through the process that created them. You are the flow of Life and separate from nothing that is Life, for that which flows through them is the process that you are. You are beyond concepts and differences and form, and within the Life Force that is all things.\u201c<\/p>\n What is the Holy Spirit?<\/strong><\/p>\n Our new special theme says, \u201cThe Holy Spirit mediates between illusions and the truth. \u2026 The goal the Holy Spirit\u2019s teaching sets is just this end of dreams.\u201d<\/p>\n The term \u201cHoly Spirit\u201d is a Judeo-Christian term for spiritual intuition. All humans have intuition. However, not all intuition is spiritual intuition. For example, I could have an intuitive feel that the person I am talking to on the phone is a con artist. That intuition is very helpful, and I serve myself well by listening to that intuition and ending the telephone conversation. However, that intuition was not focused on helping me see the difference between illusions and truth. That means that intuition wasn\u2019t spiritual intuition.<\/p>\n Spiritual intuition has a very specific purpose\u2014awakening us to truth.<\/p>\n All humans have basic intuition. All humans who have some readiness for awakening have spiritual intuition. If a human is not yet ready for awakening, spiritual intuition lies dormant within them. It will awaken to its call, when they are ready to awaken to theirs.<\/p>\n When we practice surrender as it is taught in The Teachings of Inner Ramana<\/em>, we are tuning into both everyday intuition and spiritual intuition. In fact, spiritual intuition guides us to listen to everyday intuition instead of the thinking mind, because when we listen to the chatter of the thinking mind, we enliven it. If we live by intuition instead, the thinking mind is not fed with our attention.<\/p>\n It might not be important to know that everyday intuition is the intuition that informs you that someone is attempting to scam you and spiritual intuition is the intuition that guides you to love even that experience, but it might not hurt to be clear on this difference either. Everyday intuition makes our life in the world simpler, if we listen to it. Spiritual intuition awakens us from the ego\u2019s dream of the world.<\/p>\n
\nIt is the law of Love.
\nIt is the process of creation.
\nIt is That Which is you.<\/em><\/p>\n
