5-6. A great deal of illusions appear to separate you from God. In Truth, there is no separation. God knows your heart. When you are ready to know the Heart of God, you will find it is yours as well.
The illusion of division is omnipresent within the world of form. This and that, them and I, they and those others, all distinct, all separate, all apparently originating from differing processes that have no final unification. For they are of them, and I am from this place, this family, with this job, that home, these friends, et cetera onwards to ad nauseum extensions and implications. Yet what does all of this seemingly imply? That we are all distinct, all universally unresolvable into a singular set of principles of organization and structures of unity that are indivisible? Seemingly from the perspective of the ego, no other conclusion is possible, for indeed the ego defines itself through distinctiveness and a singularity of consciousness that is outwardly gazing but apparently inwardly supportive, all necessary for the sustainment of an illusion that has no justification. That is not to imply that these illusionary constructs are to be shed easily, for while no effort is expended to release all that never was, certainly there can be work involved with seeking them out, holding them up to the Light of Love, and then discovering that they were always transparent in their affectations, devoid of validity in their suppositions and utterly unstable in all of their possible implications and implementations. Illusions arise as substitutes for Truth, but they are sorry supplicants indeed to your mind, offering nothing of any form of sustenance but requiring vast amounts of energy to be sustained, for they have no existence or continuation outside of your own deeply held desire to believe that they must be true, and so when they are set aside, they do not so much decay as they simply disappear, clearing as a mist from your mind and allowing ever greater levels of clarity and peace to overtake the places where before there was but confusion and a set of errors so great that no resolution seemed possible at all. Certainly to the partially awakening mind, there is God, and then there is you. One seems to be conceptual, a great deity in the sky who is removed from everyday existence, some formulation of a concept of overarching awareness and, in the most vestigial beginnings, of a form of control that is absolute and inescapable. All of these imaginings are but reflections of the ego, propounded upon the image of God, never applicable but seemingly useful as stand-ins for the Truth of Love, for they serve as the borders of understanding, places of liminal illumination from which the Light seeps in through the slowly forming and expanding cracks in the armor of lies that you have attempted to draw over your heart, believing yourself to be under threat, and thusly in need of a form of protection that has no reflection in anything at all that is Real. From such a place of partial awakening, there comes a moment of reflection, one within which it is necessary to inquire about what it is that you are attempting to hide yourself away from, for if God is All, then what is there to be threatened by when God returns and you are carried away from the turbidity and temerity of a life lived in form, one in which nothing is questioned and all is rejected, save for those middling bits that are approved as being appropriate for you to engage yourself with? All of these conceptualizations are illusions of the ego, but they are tempting to uphold as having value, for when under threat, where else is best to hide but within the darkness, so that your assailants cannot possibly locate you? Yet what is it that you find threatening about Love? Is it possible that you do not yet feel wholly and completely worthy of Love in all of its forms, an allowance that transforms all that is yet to be from a confusing forest of the mind and its projections into a great field of possibility, one that stretches away in front of you endlessly and perfectly? If you do not yet believe you are deserving of such bliss, then it is because you continue to rely upon the beliefs of the ego, rather than the certainty and clarity of your own heart - yet that is not a terrible situation to be engaged within in any way at all, for simply your ability to recognize that you are resistant is massively preferable to remaining wholly asleep, dreaming of a life that must be singular in its extent and import, for surely there can be nothing at all that bridges the air gap that exists between yourself and all of the other incarnate and corporeal Children of God that you meet, no matter how much they might profess to love and care for you. All illusions, and all dispellable just as soon as you’d like, but they will not be resolved through division or the continuance of a desire to believe that your mind contains all of the necessary tools to assist you with deconstructing what you’ve imagined, so that you can rebuild your core suppositions about the nature of reality within a formulation that is reflective of the Love of God, rather than the desolation and desperation of the ego. All ideas that there might be some form of distinguishment between yourself and God are false. That is not to say that you are God - that also is incorrect, although it approaches the Truth of God much more closely than the desire to continue to denigrate yourself as being anything other than an expansion of Love, able to be seemingly discrete and distinct, but still retaining all of the connection and stability that a sustainment through Love must implicate and guarantee. God Knows your heart, for God is in your heart, and you remain fully protected within the Heart of God. There is nothing that can possibly alter this Safety, and so there is no value or even justification for the arising of fear, for all beliefs in a discontinuance and disappearance of your existence are predicated upon the belief that anything at all that is physical is definitive of your genuine totality. It is not. But the ego will have none of that, and so the ego will attempt to subvert your work when it can, distracting you with coying rationales for why it might be that anger or its abominable kin hatred might be appropriate reactions to anything at all that occurs. All of these powerfully charged emotional states are distracting because the energy necessary to maintain them is extreme, and so you become rapidly depleted when you engage with such reactivity, for you are attempting to give life to nothingness, and so all that you offer is consumed and yet nothing at all is returned. Why continue as this? Why not attempt to trust that Truth is always True, no matter what you might have believed to be correct or not? Why not simply try again, releasing all that is rejectful or reprehensible that you find in another or yourself, instead attempting to accept them and yourself just as you are, and then allowing all that that might imply to arise and be known, just as it is, absent the blinding effects of fear and all that they must cause? Separation is an illusion of form. God is not distinct from you - not some entity that is inaccessible and remote, waiting on high to judge you and condemn you to “hell” if you do not live up to some ideal that is flexible and so easily convoluted into what is most popular or appropriate in the current mindset of the world of form. When traveling inwards, there is nothing at all to learn - there is just the Remembrance of God to be uncovered, living peacefully under so many layers of ideations of yourself and others, such a great set of illusions that set you at odds with yourself, beliefs in how you have “failed” or how you will never be worthy of a Love that your heart has never forgotten. Relinquish all that is oppositional to Love, for it is not Real. Accept that you are already Saved from your own illusions, for while you engage with them, they are not Real, and so they have no effect at all on your Truth. The Heart of God is Unitary with your own - they are not distinct, not divided by levels of differentiation and not defined by unresolveable dissolution. You have perhaps forgotten God. No matter. God has not - and more importantly, cannot - forgotten you. All that remains is to release all that never was, so that All That Is can assume its rightful and correct place at the forefront of your awareness, and so that the Light of Love becomes so easily seen at all times and within all of your Siblings that no conflict yet remains, and only Peace dwells forevermore in your radiant and redolent heart.
