LESSON SEVEN

TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: The Course text is in bold face. The Guidance is in normal type In His Guidance, He has asked Me to capitalize the pronouns You and We as an acknowledgement of the Divinity of All of Us, an acknowledgement of Equality, an expression of His Love and respect for You. When You see the word ‘YOU’ capitalized in the Guidance, know that He is not just speaking to YOU, He is honoring YOU.

I see only the past.

My belief that there is ‘‘time’’ – and that it rules Us – does color everything I see.  For if there were no ‘time’, there would be no past to see.  For when All There Is is Now, then Now is all that You can see.

What I am doing here is undoing all the parameters – all the ‘givens’ – that You take for granted and that keep You firmly locked within the dream, forever, until You begin to disallow them.

So what You think is now, does in the context of ‘time’, become the past immediately, for all Your responses must then needs be remembered.  For ‘‘time’’ is unforgiving as it rolls inexorably on, not allowing now, and reminding You of what has already happened and how You must deal with it from Your memories.  Thus are You in a lockstep with all Your so-called ‘loved ones’, not to mention all of those You openly dislike or fear.

Let Us now together – in this very moment – open up the willingness to see things in a way brand new to You – the very little ‘y’ you You think You are, who has forgotten that S/He is Divine.  Stay close now with Me, Your Elder Brother, as We together do remember Love.

It begins with this realization that the past is always telling You what You should and shouldn’t do. You need not listen to the voice for time remembered. Listen for My Guiding Voice, and not the ego’s.

Come, let Us Be Holiness Together.

¹ This idea is particularly difficult to believe at first. Yet it is the rationale for all of the preceding ones.

² It is the reason why nothing that you see means anything.

³ It is the reason why you have given everything you see all the meaning that it has for you.

⁴ It is the reason why you do not understand anything you see.

⁵ It is the reason why your thoughts do not mean anything and why they are like the things you see.

⁶ It is the reason why you are never upset for the reason you think.

⁷ It is the reason why you are upset because you see something that is not there.

⁸ Old ideas about time are very difficult to change because everything you believe is rooted in time and depends on your not learning these new ideas about it. Yet that is precisely why you need new ideas about time. This first time idea is not really so strange as it may sound at first. Look at a cup, for example.

⁹ Do you see a cup, or are you merely reviewing your past experiences of picking up a cup, being thirsty, drinking from a cup, feeling the rim of a cup against your lips, having breakfast, and so on? Are not your aesthetic reactions to the cup, too, based on past experiences? How else would you know whether or not this kind of cup will break if you drop it? What do you know about this cup except what you learned in the past? You would have no idea what this cup is except for your past learning. Do you, then, really see it?

¹⁰ Look about you. This is equally true of whatever you look at. Acknowledge this by applying the idea for today indiscriminately to whatever catches your eye. For example:

¹¹ I see only the past in this pencil.
I see only the past in this shoe.
I see only the past in this hand.
I see only the past in that body.
I see only the past in that face.

¹² Do not linger over any one thing in particular, but remember to omit nothing specifically. Glance briefly at each subject, and then move on to the next.
