It is how consciousness forms itself into the many temporary forms that make up the manifest universe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Fourth Principle of God<\/strong> \u2013 Manifestation.<\/p>\n<p>The discussion in today\u2019s reading is about awakening to Heaven, which is awakening to the First Principle of God. It is also about the disappearance of the world. These two\u2014awakening to the First Principle and the disappearance of the world\u2014are not two steps; they are one simultaneous step. Full enlightenment and disappearance of the world occur simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s reading, Jesus talks to the apostles about the world as it appears. He speaks of wars, of natural disasters and of discord within families. He asks the apostles to accept everything they see without fear. In other words, he asks the apostles to practice discernment: to let go of their own fearful thinking and let it be replaced by acceptance and detachment.<\/p>\n<p>As <em>A Course in Miracles<\/em> says:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Seek not to change the world, but choose to change your mind about the world. (Chapter 21, Introduction)<\/p>\n<p>That is Jesus\u2019 teaching. He lets the apostles know that under the most extreme of circumstances\u2014such as arrest and flogging\u2014one has the opportunity to choose his perception, and he recommends choosing the highest perception that one can choose.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus\u2019 teaching is reminiscent of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drivehq.com\/file\/df.aspx\/publish\/RAkers\/RDAPublicFolder\/RDA-HolySpiritGuides\/New\/The%20code.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Code<\/a>, which we studied in Year 1. The Code says:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The code is ideas, just as all things within illusion are ideas. The code can be seen as specific manifestations in form, can be felt as feelings or can be heard as thoughts. The best way to look at the code is as the <em>potential driver of experience<\/em>. I say it is the potential driver of experience, because code will only drive your experience if you fully believe the code. Even if you let go of your belief in the code partially, it no longer has full influence over you. The code can only drive your experience to the degree that you believe the code.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2026 the code is a layered code, and the layers are different vibrational levels of the same basic code. \u2026 by choosing another way to see, you are choosing to shift vibrationally to another layer of the same basic code.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, Jesus is teaching the apostles to shift their vibration above the vibration of the world by seeing differently\u2014that is, by choosing a higher perception. When we studied The Code, we learned to choose the highest perception or thought available to us in each moment. In that way, we raise our vibration and even higher perceptions become available to us. It is as Peace Pilgrim said:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As I lived up to the\u00a0highest\u00a0light\u00a0I had, higher and higher\u00a0light\u00a0came to me.<\/p>\n<p>As one practices discernment and chooses the highest way of seeing that is possible, one rises in vibration. This is also called purification. At some point, one <em>transcends the vibration of separation<\/em>. This transcendence is awakening to the Second Principle of God. At this higher vibrational level, one experiences oneness. One sees God\u2014consciousness\u2014in everything and as everything. In today\u2019s reading, Jesus describes it this way:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2026you will look out on the world and see the Christ as if it rains upon the earth from clouds held up by angels.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus tells the apostles that when this way of seeing occurs:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2026you know that Heaven (the First Principle of God) is near, right at the door awaiting you.<\/p>\n<p>It is as it says in <em>A Course in Miracles<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Knowledge is restored after perception first is changed, and then gives way entirely to what remains forever past its highest reach. ~ Workbook Lesson 336<\/p>\n<p>In other words, the final awakening is beyond vibrational levels entirely, and therefore beyond consciousness, perception and the idea of a world.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note<\/em>: If you are interested in a more thorough teaching about the process of awakening to full enlightenment, which is awakening to the First Principle of God, listen to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drivehq.com\/file\/df.aspx\/publish\/RAkers\/RDAPublicFolder\/GuidingLight\/TheGuidingLightRamana32.mp3\">this audio<\/a>.
