This may ruffle some people’s feathers. It really ruffled mine at first when this was revealed to me! 

Jesus’ resurrection was to prove that the body is UNREAL. It is simply a now-moment projected image. In truth, it is “beamed” in every second. It is not a product of our imagined past. This is why He says, “At no single instant does the body exist at all. It is always remembered or anticipated, but never experienced just [now.] ” T-18.VII.3:1-2.

The body is a thought form. It’s an image that dwells in our mind (not brain). It is made up of projected thought only. And it is sustained exclusively by our BELIEF in it. This belief in the body arises from “what” we believe we are. We either believe we are the false-self (body) or we believe we are the Child of God. Ultimately, what we believe we are will determine the purpose we use the body FOR.

We believe that the body is dependent on a bunch of ego laws which Jesus terms as magic (food, fluid, medicines, etc). We think the body is born…and then it dies. But the truth is it was never BORN and can never DIE. As a projected image only…it has ZERO past. And this is why the miracle can heal it instantaneously (if we believe and receive). The UNREAL BODY CANNOT DIE! We won’t truly KNOW the body is UNREAL…until we overcome both death and the body. Death of the body (decay, etc) is testimony that we have NOT overcome the body.

The purpose of miracles is to prove that we are the MIND that made the body and world. We are therefore NEVER victim of the body or the world. The mind and NOT the body/world is always CAUSE. The body/world is a direct EFFECT of what we value and therefore, believe. And this is precisely WHY forgiveness is the sole means by which we heal by REVERSING all of the laws of the world. Remember lesson 38?

“Your holiness reverses all the laws of the world. It is beyond every restriction of time, space, distance and limits of any kind. Your holiness is totally unlimited in its power because it establishes you as a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator.”

“Through your holiness the power of God is made manifest. Through your holiness the power of God is made available. And there is nothing the power of God cannot do. Your holiness, then, can remove all pain, can end all sorrow, and can solve all problems. It can do so in connection with yourself and with anyone else. It is equal in its power to help anyone because it is equal in its power to save anyone.” W-38.1,2

Forgiveness looks past the erroneous “appearances” of sickness, pain, loss, aging, conflict, etc., and it acknowledges exclusively that these are always EFFECTS of the singular CAUSE (un-forgiven guilt as self-attack) in our mind. This, and ONLY this, requires healing via forgiveness. Nothing is healed by manipulating self-made phenomena in the dream (holistic or traditional medicine, dieting, etc.). Guilt is the single CAUSE of all illness, relationship conflict, lack and death. Period.

When we come to the most advanced stage of our development of trust (as Jesus demonstrated), the body is merely DE-MATERIALIZED. We simply cease PROJECTING its image. At this stage, the body simply DISAPPEARS. Because it is finally seen for what it is UNREAL…it doesn’t decay. It’s seen as complete ILLUSION. Jesus also says that when this stage is reached, the body is in pristine condition. It is not sick, old or hurt. It’s just laid aside and it DISAPPEARS. The UNREAL cannot die.

The End of Death, as Jesus came to teach, is literally the REVERSAL of all the laws of the world. Our belief that DEATH is the inevitable END OF LIFE (end of God/Love) is the ego’s central dream. If this were true then death would be our “god” and God would be rendered completely powerless and helpless in the face of the ego’s “god” of DEATH.

God is eternal Life right here, right NOW! God is eternal and uninterrupted Love! There is no death in God! The concept of death is the ego’s most cherished obsession arising from its terror of Love (God). Death was made as our ESCAPE FROM God, from our awakening to the full embodiment of the Power of Christ that we ARE. Nothing could possibly assail Jesus. He knew He was the Son of God. He asks us to do the same and overcome all the sick and deranged “laws” we originally made as an attack on God and our Holy Self.

We made the body to demonstrate through its frailty and death that we are NOT a Child of God. Sickness, pain, conflict, lack, loss and death are all SYMPTOMS of our FEAR OF LOVE (God). Unfortunately our belief in death is our “god”. If we believe that death is the certain, inevitable and natural outcome of all life, then we are terrified of God as Love. This is also our terror of our One shared Holy Self! There is either DEATH… or… GOD. They are mutually exclusive! They cannot co-exist! Which of these is True? Which of these do I VALUE (believe)?

And be gone to all those silly ego beliefs that presume we go Home to God through death! Who in his right mind would trust a God that wants his death!?

The world is not left by death but by truth.” T-3.VII.6: 11.

The common blessing for the dead, “Rest in Peace,” is ridiculously twisted by the ego. No one rests in death. The only rest we have is in LIFE! God is Life and NOT death! This is what Jesus has to say about resting in peace:

 “All forms of sickness, even unto death, are physical expressions of the fear of awakening. They are attempts to reinforce sleeping out of fear of waking. This is a pathetic way of trying not to see by rendering the faculties for seeing ineffectual. “Rest in peace” is a blessing for the living, not the dead, because rest comes from waking, not from sleeping.”  T-8.IX.3:2-5

While death is still believed to be the natural and inevitable outcome of all life…we will unwittingly believe that death COMES FROM GOD. And we will be bitterly afraid of God (Love as our One Holy Self), not realizing that this is the ego’s projection of ITS “god”. This false idol will completely obscure the real and only God of undivided Love and uninterrupted Life.

We will then continue to project the ego’s version of a vicious “god” onto the God of Love, Life and all Creation. The illusion of time itself is prolonged by our insane belief in death as our foremost savior from the un-ending conflict of life.

The ego’s “re-cycle program” of birth, amnesia & death, birth, amnesia & death, keeps us enmeshed in a never-ending loop of incarnation followed by AMNESIA. When we’re born into a body again, we completely forget our singular PURPOSE which is to reverse all the laws of the world and to awaken FROM the dream.

Instead, we are once more groomed to be a better ego, a better BODY, with a better life.  We learn the killer art of “special relationships” and we learn to SUBSTITUTE God with special love and the body. Physical pleasure becomes the aim of all our pursuits while we try to avoid pain…not realizing they are one and the same 😉 And then? We get sick or age for the millionth lifetime, and we DIE again. Still, even in death we have NO idea what our True Purpose IS. We enter once again into the ego’s dream of life as a helpless infant with complete amnesia. And the ego’s “re-cycle program” concludes with death AGAIN. We just have to laugh!

No wonder the illusion of time has dragged on so wearily for some 14 billion years. It’s been more than 2000 years since Jesus first DEMONSTRATED our singular Purpose for being here. And we still haven’t got it. Our unquestioned value of death over God as LIFE has perpetuated time and our consequent incarnations into the ego’s “recycle program”. Yet the literal end of death equates to there being no more time or space; and of course, no more separation.

Jesus came to BREAK this cycle literally, once and for ALL. And to teach us how to do it too! He gave us the Atonement so we can ACCEPT this healing outright. He already DID it on behalf of us all. But 2000 years onward and there may be only a handful of people in the dream who are just beginning to unpack His message, let alone DEMONSTRATE it.  The next phase of the dream is to OWN IT, to join in DEMONSTRATING His number one Miracle Principle (from ACIM): “THERE IS NO ORDER OF DIFFICULTY IN MIRACLES.”  None.
Why is there no order of difficulty in miracles? The reason is because there is no hierarchy of illusions. Because the body, its ailments and the world, are all equally UNREAL…the miracle has SUPREMACY and 100% DOMINION over these illusions. No order of difficulty means that nothing is more difficult to heal. Either a pimple or the throes of (seeming) death, they are one and the same. They are a suggestion that God (Love) does not exist. The belief in death …OR… God is TOTAL.

Death is the opposite of God as Love and Life without interruption or end. The message here is that Jesus teaches there is NOTHING in the phenomenal (ego) dream that can harm us. To the contrary, the Healed Mind takes DOMINION over everything (including the ego’s central dream – DEATH) it previously made to convince us that we are powerless victims of the separation (that we’re NOT the Child of God). We initially made up everything we believe can attack us. Now, we will UN-MAKE all this nonsense with the Holy Spirit! This is what miracles are for! It’s time to wake-up!

Guess what!? “A Course in Miracles” is a Course in MIRACLES! Yes MIRACLES! 

My Visionary Dream

Just before I began taking down the transmissions for “The End of Death” Trilogy, I had a powerful visionary dream in which I was asked to write down just one word. It seemed to take all night to finally get the word written. But the two Light Beings who stood over me while I attempted to do this, stayed with me patiently and encouragingly until I was able to complete it. There were moments where I really didn’t think I would ever complete this task. It felt as if I had endured lifetimes of conflict and confusion in RESISTANCE to the meaning of this word. But I had a feeling these two Beings were not going to give up on me UNTIL I had completed it.

The word that I felt was almost impossible to write down was “RAPTURE”. Yet as I tried over and over again to write this word with sweat beads rolling down my face, I kept seeing the word “BLASPHEMY”. And then I would attempt to write the Sacred Word again, only to see the word “blasphemy” one more time. In the end, after numerous attempts to get it right, there was a deep inner surrender. I seemed to accept all that the word was pointing TO. And it felt as if I had RECEIVED it. Somehow its meaning was revealed to me although at the time I consciously had no idea of the multidimensionality of it. This was the word pointing to the shining Center of this holographic dream and it lay shining brilliantly behind the ego’s central dream of death.

Having had almost no biblical background in this lifetime, I had no conscious knowledge of the word “rapture.” So I looked it up on Google the following morning and was dumb-struck by its meaning. No wonder I kept seeing the word, “blasphemy!”

Little did I know that these two Beings would show up one more time; only this time, I was wide awake in the city of Jerusalem in June of 2012. This was a life-changing experience that served to support me during a trying time of remembering my particular role and purpose in the dream of time with Jesus. The purpose of witnessing this experience was to ask if I was, 1) ready to see my initial agreement with Jesus, and, 2) was I willing to complete that agreement NOW.

Was There a Physical Resurrection?

I will  paste a segment directly from Jesus below. It’s about His physical resurrection. It states that He indeed resurrected from the dead. As you will see, His body DISAPPEARED in the tomb. It did not decay. This is KEY. His body disappeared because He recognized it was UNREAL! And the UNREAL does not decay! Otherwise if it did decay…it was clearly NOT recognized as UNREAL. Jesus did not resurrect His previous body. He simply projected another body in which He could complete His divine Assignment.

This piece was dictated to Helen Shucman and is called, The Special Messages.

From Jesus:  “My body disappeared because I had no illusion about it. The last one had gone. It was laid in the tomb, but there was nothing left to bury. It did not disintegrate because the unreal cannot die. It merely became what it always was. And that is what “rolling the stone away” means. The body disappears, and no longer hides what lies beyond. It merely ceases to interfere with vision. To roll the stone away is to see beyond the tomb, beyond death, and to understand the body’s nothingness. What is understood as nothing must disappear.
I did assume a human form with human attributes afterwards, to speak to those who were to prove the body’s worthlessness to the world. This has been much misunderstood. I came to tell them that death is illusion, and the mind that made the body can make another since form itself is an illusion. They did not understand. But now I talk to you and give you the same message. The death of an illusion means nothing. It disappears when you awaken and decide to dream no more. And you still do have the power to make this decision as I did.
God holds out His hand to His Son to help him rise and return to Him. I can help because the world is illusion, and I have overcome the world. Look past the tomb, the body, the illusion. Have faith in nothing but the spirit and the guidance God gives you. He could not have created the body because it is a limit. He must have created the spirit because it is immortal. Can those who are created like Him be limited? The body is the symbol of the world.
Leave it behind. It cannot enter Heaven. But I can take you there anytime you choose. Together we can watch the world disappear and its symbol vanish as it does so. And then, and then… I cannot speak of that.
A body cannot stay without illusions, and the last one to be overcome is death. This is the message of the crucifixion; there is no order of difficulty in miracles. This is the message of the resurrection: Illusions are illusions. Truth is true. Illusions vanish. Only truth remains.

These lessons needed to be taught but once, for when the stone of death is rolled away, what can be seen except an empty tomb? And that is what you see who follow me into the sunlight and away from death, past all illusions, on to Heaven’s gate, where God will come Himself to take you home.”

Difference between Awakening IN the dream and Awakening FROM the Dream

Lastly, I’ve had quite a few people ask, “What is the difference between awakening IN the dream, and awakening FROM the dream?  There is an outstanding distinction between them and one which is rarely recognized as yet.

Awakening IN the dream: There is peace made with the body and world. There is peace made with death. This person is in a largely euphoric state of “acceptance.” Resistance is futile and peace with all is realized. The laws of the world are accepted BUT they are not transcended. The body itself is still deemed as being more powerful than the mind that made it. Disease, aging and death still play victor over this awakened person. In other words, “effect & cause” are not reversed. The body is still believed to be a CAUSE in itself; eg. It can cause physical death. Thoughts are stilled. But…the underlying VALUE SYSTEM of death is still running. The ego still pursues AFTER death if death is not overcome. Until the ego’s value-system is overcome, it will continue to propel further incarnations all centered on DEATH.

While this awakening IN the dream is still helpful, there is yet a further AWAKENING to be had – preferably BEFORE the body is once more surrendered to attack (separation) as disease, aging and death. This awakening would be to demonstrate the body’s UNREALITY. Otherwise, there must be further incarnations of death, birth, amnesia, death, birth, amnesia, all in order to learn to finally awaken FROM the dream of the body/world. Otherwise, death, as the central ego dream, has not yet been overcome.

The issue I have with this level of the awakened state is that often, there appears a sense of COMPLACENCY. Often, there is such peace, joy and comfort that there is a mistaken belief there is no more UN-LEARNING & LEARNING to embody. I feel this complacency itself is a false-ceiling that inhibits the FULL awakening FROM the ego’s central dream of death.

Awakening FROM the dream: Finally, the body is “seen through.” It is UNREAL. It is therefore completely IMMUNE to disease, pain, decay and death. It is no longer used to demonstrate attack (separation). It is used exclusively as a COMMUNICATION DEVICE to communicate that only Love, only Life is real.

The body is claimed only as an EFFECT of its CAUSE in our mind. The Healed Mind now governs the body’s state exclusively. The body is known as a projected image and is not dependent on “magic” to sustain it. Nor can it get sick, age or die. When the PURPOSE of the body has been fulfilled it DOES NOT DIE. It simply disappears…laid aside. The ego’s central dream of death is overcome. There is no more need of incarnation because the ego’s laws have been reversed and the dream is awoken FROM.

From Nouk:

In closing, I pray with all my heart that I may be filled with the necessary trust, faith and undivided conviction of Christ to follow boldly in Jesus’ footsteps. May the Christ overcome the dream of the body and the world – in me as the “I AM”. And I pray that those whose hearts also hear the depth of His Call to Awaken, will join me as ONE. This…is the FINAL awakening. God will take the last step. Amen.
