Master manipulators

'Terrifying,' A Perfect 'Advertisement For Gun Control'

White House denies petition to deport Piers Morgan

Man behind ‘Deport Piers Morgan’ petition has meltdown on Morgan’s show

I was wondering whether to blog this and was struck with the phrase “master manipulators”. True teachers tell us to seek God. Another persons beliefs are their truth, not the Truth. It’s not “who’s right but what’s right”. If you’re centered in God then what’s to fear?

Total Power Over Harmful Rage.

January 10

To think and reason wisely is your inheritance. Say these words daily that the world may be bene­fited by you: "My Mind is God." ECH

 As Emmet Fox, talking of true teachers,  stated in 1933 "they tell you to look away from themselves, to seek the Presence of God in your own heart, and to use books, lectures, and churches only as a means to that one end".

By applying the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the reactions of others more and more consistently, you will gain an increasing awareness that HIS criteria are equally applicable to YOU. For to RECOGNIZE fear is not enough to escape FROM it, although the recognition IS necessary to demonstrate the NEED for escape. The Holy Spirit must still TRANSLATE it into truth. If you were LEFT with the fear, having RECOGNIZED it, you would have taken a step AWAY from reality, not TOWARDS it. Yet we have repeatedly emphasized the need to recognize fear, and face it WITHOUT DISGUISE, as a crucial step in the undoing of the ego. Consider how well the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the motives of others will serve you then.

Having taught you to accept only loving thoughts in others, and to regard everything else as an appeal for help, He has taught you that FEAR is an appeal for help. This is what RECOGNIZING it really means. If you do NOT PROTECT it, HE will reinterpret it. That is the ultimate value TO YOU in learning to perceive attack as a call for love. We have learned surely that fear and attack are inevitably associated. If ONLY attack produces fear, and if you see attack as the call for help that it IS, the REALITY of fear MUST dawn upon you. For fear IS a call for love, in unconscious recognition of what has been denied. The Judgment Of The Holy Spirit~ACIM~urText

A Course In Miracles says that "The Holy Spirit sees everything in the world as either an expression of love or a call for love." (Acim T.217).
The call for love is expressed as a form of fear (anger, resentment, frustration, sadness, attack, wanting to fix someone). And it’s mutually inclusive. Examine your thoughts. Are you neutral?

Thoughts on “THOUGHTS”.

Morty Lefkoe teaches events have no meaning in themselves. It is the meaning we give things based on our beliefs. And we are the creator of our own emotions.

When we can see the “call for love” under difficult behavior, forgiveness naturally occurs, and we are left in a state of compassion rather that locked into anger, fear, or guilt. It is our compassionate mind than can then make proactive decisions which result in a more positive life.

"Projection makes perception"

We look inside first, decide the kind of world we want to see and then project that world outside, making it the truth as we see it. We make it true by our interpretations of what it is we are seeing. If we are using perception to justify our own mistakes—our anger, our impulses to attack, our lack of love in whatever form it may take—we will see a world of evil, destruction, malice, envy and despair. All this we must learn to forgive, not because we are being "good" and "charitable," but because what we are seeing is not true. We have distorted the world by our twisted defenses, and are therefore seeing what is not there. As we learn to recognize our perceptual errors, we also learn to look past them or "forgive." At the same time we are forgiving ourselves, looking past our distorted self-concepts to the Self That God created in us and as us.

Knowledge is truth, under one law, the law of love or God. Since love is all there is, sin, defined as "lack of love", in the sight of the Holy Spirit is a mistake to be corrected, rather than an evil to be punished.

The opposite of seeing through the body's eyes is the vision of Christ, which reflects strength rather than weakness, unity rather than separation, and love rather than fear.
