⁶It is a mistake to believe that a thought system based on lies is weak. ⁷Nothing made by a child of God is without power. ⁸It is essential to realize this, because otherwise you will be unable to escape from the prison you have made. (ACIM, T-3.VII.1:6-8)
Ganun ka-powerful yung thoughts natin, regardless kung yung thought system ay base sa lies.
Kaya nga parang the illusion is real kasi the same creative mind yung may gawa nun.
Sabi nga sa isa pang channeled message, mas maraming effort pa raw ang kailangan para ma-maintain yung illusion, kasi kailangan convincing.
Powerful ang thought system. Pero gaya ng nabanggit natin dati, tayo ang nagiging weak pag ang pinaniniwalaan natin ay base sa lies.
Kailangan ma-realize natin na ilusyon lang yung illusion. Otherwise, hindi natin malalaman yung truth behind the illusion.
Kumbaga, hangga’t hindi natin natutuklasan yung trick, e paulit-ulit lang tayo mapapaniwala dun sa magic.
²The separation is a system of thought real enough in time, though not in eternity. ³All beliefs are real to the believer. (ACIM, T-3.VII.3:2-3)
So eto ngang state of separation natin from God and one another ay isang kapanipaniwalang illusion sa world of time.
Why? Kasi kahit yung time ay illusion rin.
Hindi pa ba obvious sa magkakaibang timezone ng mga bansa? Pag may ka-chikahan ka sa ibang bansa na iba ang timezone, magkaiba yung time nyo, pero sabay lang kayo nag-uusap – “same time” lang.
Ang point dito is depende siya sa perceiver nung time.
Reality is in the eye of the perceiver.
⁴Images are perceived, not known. ⁵Knowledge cannot deceive, but perception can. (ACIM, T-3.VII.4:4-5)
Turo nga sa atin ng A Course in Miracles, magkaiba yung perception at knowledge.
“Images,” or beliefs ay base sa perception. Kasi non-sense na yung beliefs pag may knowledge na.
Hindi mo na maloloko sarili mo pag alam mo na yung totoo.
Pero kung hindi pa, panghahawakan mo talaga yung belief system kasi we always have faith in something.
The mind can make the belief in separation very real and very fearful, and this belief is the “devil.” (ACIM, T-3.VII.5:1)
Yown! Yung “devil” ang image na nabuo sa isipan natin para sa belief system na base sa illusion of separation.
⁴But realize that this making will surely dissolve in the light of truth, because its foundation is a lie. (ACIM, T-3.VII.5:4)
Pero tandaan, it’s just an image. Ilusyon lang, hindi talaga totoo.
⁷Much has been seen since then, but nothing has really happened. ⁸Your Self is still in peace, even though your mind is in conflict. (ACIM, T-3.VII.5:7-8)
Kahit gaano pa man kapanipaniwala yung illusion, e hindi naman talaga nangyari yung separation.
It’s just an “image-ination.”
Image lang yung nakikita natin. Pero yung totoong tayo ay hindi nawalay sa Diyos.
Kaya kahit na nawawala yung peace of mind, yung peace ay hindi nawawala sa atin.
Lagi nating mababalikan yung peace pag ginusto natin.
⁹You have not yet gone back far enough, and that is why you become so fearful. (ACIM, T-3.VII.5:9)
Natatakot lang tayo kasi hindi pa tayo nakakabalik nang husto kay God.
¹⁰As you approach the Beginning, you feel the fear of the destruction of your thought system upon you as if it were the fear of death. ¹¹There is no death, but there is a belief in death. (ACIM, T-3.VII.5:10-11)
Pakiramdam natin nakakatakot yung pagbalik kay God. Pero ang talagang kinatatakutan natin ay yung pag-collapse nung belief system na pinaniniwalaan natin.
Kasi nga nagiging non-sense na yung beliefs pag nagkaka-knowledge na.
Yung collapse na yun ay parang the death of who we thought we are – yung self-image natin.
Pero who we really are does not die.
