A Course in Miracles



The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of
creation. Who You Want to Be.

Judge not, then, the karmic path walked by another.
Envy not success, nor pity failure,
for you know not what is success or failure
in the soul’s reckoning.
Judge not, and neither
condemn, for you know not why a thing occurs,
nor to what end.
And remember you this:
that which you condemn will condemn you,
and that which you judge, you will one day become.

All life arises out of choice.
Your own life is the way it is because of you,
and the choices you have made—or failed to make.

All that is required is to know this. For you are the creator of your reality,
and life can show up no other way for you than that way in which you think it will.

So—do you want your life to “take off”?
Begin at once to imagine it the way you want it to be—
and move into that.

Remember, you are constantly in the act of creating yourself.
You are in every moment deciding who and what you are.
You decide this largely through the choices you make regarding who and what you feel passionate about.
Yet never resist anything. If you think that by your resistance you will eliminate it, think again.
You only plant it more firmly in place.
All thought is creative?

The point of life is therefore to create—who and what you are, and then to experience that.
This is the process of Self realization about which Eastern mystics have written.
It is the process of salvation to which much Western theology has devoted itself.
Yet the purpose of relationship is not to have another who might complete you; but to have another with whom you might share your completeness.

A Master blesses calamity, for the Master knows that from the seeds of disaster comes the growth of Self.

What you do for your Self, you do for another.
What you do for another,you do for the Self.
This is because you and the other are one.

True Masters are those who have chosen to make a life, rather than a living.

To change your reality, simply stop thinking like that.
Go ahead and do what you really love to do! Do nothing else! You have so little time.
How can you think of wasting a moment doing something
for a living you don’t like to do?
What kind of a living is that?
That is not a living, that is a dying!

The world is in the condition that it’s in because the world is full of sleepwalkers.

yes, we create our own reality, life is what you make it. Love the post.

Strider, I needed to read this... right here, right now. It is a great guide to living your life with conditions only you choose according to your perceptions. Wonderful! When I was a child, my mom always said to me, "What will others say about you/ us/ what has been done?" I guess it's about time to stop worrying about what others will say...

I truly believe that we make our own reality, and that positive energy begets positive energy. (And may The Force be with you too, Strider!)

Hmmm. Good stuff. Thanks.

Thanks for posting this here. I commented on this at the "other" place and seems comments/replies today are funky, mine come up not showing. So know that I'm thinking about you, and I guess it's a good thing to have more blogs

Great words to live by, and I believe every one of them.

Like the little train:"I think I can, I think I can." "I can, I can, I can"
We are almost always most limited by ourselves, and our own lack of self-confidence and/or self-esteem.

It has taken me all my life to do something I should have done forty years ago; but it is finally moving in the direction I want it to.

All life arises out of choice.
Your own life is the way it is because of you,
and the choices you have made—or failed to make.
That part made me depressed because I KNOW I put myself here and it pisses me off...

But then this part:
To change your reality, simply stop thinking like that.
Go ahead and do what you really love to do! Do nothing else! You have so little time.
How can you think of wasting a moment doing something
for a living you don’t like to do?
What kind of a living is that?
That is not a living, that is a dying!
Made me happier cuz I think it's true. I need to start DOING something towards the goals I have in life... cuz right now I am just dying...

you have had some amazing posts recently mister!

Wonderful words. The Bible says that you shall be judged with the same judgment you give others. I have always tried to remember this and do not fall guilty to it very often. May God forgive us all. Nena
