3-35. Child of God, there is only Love. Absolutely nothing else is Real. All that you perceive that is not Love is but an illusion. Release your desire to condemn this world and you will be Free.
Condemnation is of the ego - a judgment rendered against a world wholly misunderstood, and thusly it is not representative of anything that is actually Real. Love is of God - an infinite appreciation for the Perfection of Creation given unto a world fully comprehended and accepted, and thusly it is all that is actually Real. Condemnation serves the purposes of illusionary separation, for all that is condemned must be presumed to be separate from the condemner, or there would be no inherent justification for the evaluation so cast against all that is perceived. Only the insane would condemn themselves to a prison of their own creation, although it must be said that many Children of God have voluntarily elected to behave just as this, and they have suffered mightily as a result. What did they gain for all that they endured? What relief from anguish did they discover when they were finally willing to set aside all of the condemnation of their illusionary separation? What indeed, for such an inquiry is not at all relevant to you and your Path back towards God. Know and accept only that to judge the absolute, intractable and unassailable rationale for the choices of others is a proposition that has no definitive description, for all such attempts are founded upon a belief in the possession of sufficient knowledge to be able to do so, when no such statement of absolute awareness can be made. All that you perceive that is worthy of insult, judgment or ridicule is but a reflection of the aspects of your own consciousness that you continue to reject in favor of the specialness that the ego upholds as necessary and vital for its own continuance. By and for separation, the ego evaluates all that occurs, rejecting most and accepting but so very little as being worthy of praise. The ego knows its own nature not at all, and so it wishes to impose a rigid set of evaluations upon the actions and beliefs of others, to say nothing of the totality of any particular situation. Yet the ego does so as a blind instrument of its own self-sustaining purpose, which can most accurately be summarized as a desire to distract you from the infinity that will be Remember when the ego’s small-minded and endlessly reactionary perspective is recognized as having no justification that can be fully explored and upheld as valid at all. All that you perceive that you find to be not Love is not anything that will continue forever, and so it is not Real. It is a temporary manifestation of a system of lessons offered and an education in useful contemplation, not a permanent aspect of the totality of Creation that is actually deserving of your attention at all. It is a practice, this undoing of the ego - a disciplined endeavor to attempt to release all that is not an accurate reflection of Love whenever it should arise, so that all that is Love can be accepted in its place. It doesn’t matter if you find yourself failing, perhaps even miserably, when you first attempt to differentiate between what the ego wishes to judge that which God Knows to be Love. That is absolutely acceptable, for you have likely had decades of experience with organizational patterns of observance of that which you have labeled as “wrong” and perhaps far less experience with people or situations that are what you have believed to be “correct” or “lovable”. These labels of separation serve you not, for they are all designed to isolate certain events as being worthy of experience and to reject others as being unacceptable and devoid of any value at all. Yet all that occurs can serve your highest Becoming, if you should choose to regard it from a dispassionate stance of acceptance and nonjudgmental awareness, rather than your prior patterns of instantaneous rejection and condemnation. All that is actually Real is only that which cannot alter, be destroyed, mutated into unrecognizable formats of presentation or constrained and judged as belonging to a singular expressive framework of the totality of Creation. All that is actually Real is Love, but the enormous variety of forms of expression of Love are so multifold that it can be very easy to overlook them when they arise. You can easily look beyond them if you are still willing to judge first and inquire second, for the mind will refuse to see and acknowledge anything that it believes to be unworthy of any further processing, through a system of unconsciously adopted evaluation that has no genuine utility. To See with an open heart is to be willing to be presented with an infinite variety of expressions of the Love of God, in so many formats and for so many ineffable rationales that to attempt to codify all of their reasons for existence is both pointless and, perhaps for some, deeply distracting. What is Real continues. What is not, degrades. What is Real is Love, and Love can be found in anything that is even slightly reflective of the Creations of God, no matter how far removed it might be at this exact moment from the genesis that brought it into the world of form. To be Free from the shackles that you have used to manacle yourself to your own downtrodden belief patterns, all of which must only attempt to counteract the Will of God but none of which can actually succeed, you need only accept that you have perceived incorrectly in the past, and then release your desire to continue propagating such a perceptional manifold for even one moment longer. In doing so, you choose God over the ego and you will become ever more willing to first trust, and then finally to genuinely Trust, that God is Real and that the Love of God is Given unto you for your Salvation not from “sin”, which is an affectation of an allegiance to the ego, but rather for your relief from illusion so that you might finally be able to perceive what is Real correctly and completely.
