" Lesson 130

"It is impossible to see two worlds."

- Perception is consistent. What you see
reflects your thinking. And your thinking but
reflects your choice of what you want to see.
Your values are determiners of this,
for what you value you must want to see,
believing what you see is really there.
No one can see a world his mind has not
accorded value. And no one can fail
to look upon what he believes he wants.|

- Yet who can really hate and love at once?
Who can desire what he does not want
to have reality? And who can choose
to see a world of which he is afraid?
Fear must make blind, for this its weapon is;
that which you fear to see you cannot see.
Love and perception thus go hand in hand,
but fear obscures in darkness what is there.|

- What, then, can fear project upon the world?
What can be seen in darkness that is real?
Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what remains
is but imagined. Yet what can be real
in blind imaginings of panic born?
What would you want that thus is shown to you?
What would you wish to keep in such a dream?|

- Fear has made everything you think you see.
All separation, all distinctions, and
the multitude of differences you
believe make up the world. They are not there.
Love's enemy has made them up. [But] love
can have no enemy, and so they have
no cause, no being and no consequence.
They can be valued, but remain unreal.
They can be sought, but they can not be found.

- Today we will not seek for them, nor waste
this day in seeking [not what can] be found.|
It is impossible to see two worlds
which have no overlap of any kind.

- Seek for the one; the other disappears.
But one remains. [They are] the range of choice
beyond which your decision cannot go.
The real and the unreal are all there is
to choose between, and nothing more than these.|

- Today we will attempt no compromise
where none is possible. The world you see
is proof you have already made a choice
as all-embracing as its opposite.
What we would learn today is more than just
the lesson that [we] cannot see two worlds.
It also teaches that the one <you> see
is quite consistent from the point of view
from which <you> see it. It is all a piece
because it stems from one emotion, and
reflects its source in everything you see.|

- Six times today, in thanks and gratitude,
we gladly give five minutes to the thought
[which] ends all compromise and doubt, and go
beyond [it] all as one. We will not make
a thousand meaningless distinctions, nor
attempt to bring with us a little part
of unreality, as we devote
our minds to finding only what is real.|

- Begin your searching for the other world
by asking for a strength beyond your own,
and recognizing what it is you seek.
You do not want illusions. And you come
to these five minutes emptying your hands
of all the petty treasures of this world.
You wait for God to help you, as you say:

"It is impossible to see two worlds.
Let me accept the strength God offers me
and see no value in this world, that I
may find my freedom and deliverance."|

- God will be there. For you have called upon
the great unfailing Power [Which] will take
this giant step with you in gratitude.
Nor will you fail to see His thanks expressed
in tangible perception and in truth.
You will not doubt what you will look upon.
For though it is perception, it is not
the kind of seeing that your eyes alone
have ever seen before. And you will know
God's strength upheld you as you made this choice.|

- Dismiss temptation easily today
whenever it arises, merely by
remembering the limits on your choice.
The <unreal or the real>, the false or true
is what you see, and only what you see.
Perception is consistent with your choice,
and hell or Heaven comes to you as one.|
#Accept a little part of hell as real,
and you have damned your eyes and cursed your sight,
and what you will behold is hell indeed.
Yet the release [to] Heaven still remains
within your range of choice, to take the place
of everything that hell would show to you.
All you need say to any part of hell,
whatever form it takes, is simply this:

"It is impossible to see two worlds.
I seek my freedom and deliverance,
and this is not a part of what I want." "

this is clea... and makes sense. Of course, as always, it's the believing
it, accepting it, and living it that brings the benefits. "All that I give
is given to myself"

" Lesson 130
"It is impossible to see two worlds."

Wrong again.

It is only impossible for people who believe that it is
impossible.

And here we see yet another limiting belief being pushed by ACIM.

ACIM is just mainstream Christianity in a new-age costume.

If you want to know what Jesus really tried to teach us back
then, read "The Nature of Personal Reality" by Jane Roberts.
