Below are the links to my original posts for the lessons we are reviewing today:
Day 135: If I defend myself I am attacked.
Day 136: Sickness is a defense against the truth.
We begin our meditation with the following:
My mind holds only what I think with God.
When you close your eyes, imagine that you're flying over all the places that you know... Then fly further as you pass over those regions on the earth which you have yet to see, but always wanted to... Fly further still as images stream by which you have only seen in your imagination. As you gain speed, the pictures all around you blend together, a rainbow of blurred watercolor flying fast and quickly past you. The speed with which you travel makes it seem as though you're zooming through a tunnel. Faster still, and the point from where the images seem to flow toward you flashes, flickering wildly. It sparks and grows and starts to fill the full field of your vision, and soon all that you see is Bright White Light in front of you...
If I defend myself I am attacked.
There is no reason to defend, for we cannot be harmed. We are Divine Creations of God. What could possibly damage us so? To defend is not to be aware of Who We Really Are. To defend is to rebound attack, which only aggravates it more. Our purpose here is to diffuse attack, not to promote it. Attack reinforces the illusion that we're separate, when in fact We are All One.
Sickness is a defense against the truth.
Sickness is an illusion which blinds us from the Truth that we cannot be harmed. Sickness is temptation to identify with our bodies. But we are not our bodies. We are Ideas in the Experience of God. We are One with Him. We are the Blessed Souls He has appointed to bring Light unto this world. Our bodies are the instruments through which this can be done, but they are not Who We Are. If our body should fall beyond repair, our soul will lay it down with gladness and move on to something else - another body, perhaps, or a whisper in the breeze which will inspire other souls. But sickness cannot harm us, for it is itself illusive. To invite sickness within us speaks of errors in our minds. Disease means that we're not at ease, and a Child of God who knows Who He Is could never be dis-eased.
Let us move through life today with the awareness of these truths. Remember Who You Are, and there will be no need for defense. Remember Who You Are, and you will know that you're not ill. Remember Who You Are, and you will rest at Peace and Oneness with the One Who made you Strong and Pure and Whole and Everlasting.
Until tomorrow,
Journeyman
