Lession 2 Art of Spiritual Peacemaking Course
Beloved. I call you by your name, for only then will you know the truth
about your Self. Only then will you adopt the Holy Sight with which I see you
and all beings. Then you will do as I do, extend that vision. The world is
already healed, Beloved. That is what you have come to realize and learn. The
world of dreams is now passing away, and you are left only with the Light of
Peace. Welcome, Beloved, to your home.
It is important at this early stage for you to realize why you are here. First
of all, why are you here on this Earth? Was it an accident of fate that
brought you here, the aligning of circumstances beyond your decision? Or have
you come far enough to realize that there is nothing beyond your decision.
Nothing! Your birth at this time was predestined. It was predestined by you!
You are here because you chose it before time began. It was only an instant
ago when you decided this, and now you are here. What will you do with this
knowledge?
I will tell you. You will use time wisely to heal your split mind, then see
the world as healed. Then it will be so, for you have the power of God within
you. This is the moment when you are choosing to see your Christ-Mind
reflected everywhere, including where war seems to rage. Your decision alone
will shed Light upon all these shadowy places, for the Light that proceeds
from you is Holy Light. It is the Light that proceeds from my mind, and you
are included there. You have come to KNOW this, and to heal through this
knowledge. Blessed is the moment of this decision. And Blessed too is the
world you will now heal.
Throughout the course of these 33 lessons I will offer suggestions to speed
this process along. You are needed NOW. It is not because this time is any
darker or more in need of your Light than any other time. It is simply because
there is no other time but this. You are the one who chose this time. And you
will fulfill everything you have set your heart upon. That is why it was
important for you to open your heart before you could begin this stage. That
is why you underwent the lessons that preceded this course, and now you are
ready. You will bring it all with you, and you will see clearer than you have
ever seen before. You are needed NOW, Beloved, and we will move forward with
great speed.
It is not important that you understand or even accept the mind that is
sharing this information with you. It is your mind as well. But the reference
may be different, just as your view is different depending upon where you
stand at a given moment. My reference is whole, while yours is still a bit
splintered. That is about to change. It must change if you are to adopt the
vision I would offer you. We will understand what we need to understand, and
then we will set the intellect aside. It will not take us to where we need to
go. But your heart, yes, this is where we will focus our attention. It is
there already.
I want you to focus for a moment on the name I was given when I was born.
Jeshua. If you can understand what this name means, and that it is yours as
much as mine, then you will understand where we are headed together. You have
been taught to chant the word YES to open the channels of your soul,preparing
your heart for the Great Work that lies before us. It doesn't matter what
language you use. It is the feeling you generate that creates the opening.
There is a sound in Hebrew that essentially means "It is so." This is a more
powerful interpretation of the word YES. The sound is "Yesh." Say it a few
times out loud. Make the sound long and draw it out for at least a few
seconds. "Y-E-S-H." The sound generates a powerful response within your heart.
See if you can sense the feeling. As one who has awakened his heart and mind
to the experience of Christ Consciousness, I can tell you that your dedication
to this one word will lead you to where I am standing now. "It is so." Your !
Christ-Mind is so, this very moment. It is happening NOW, not in the future,
not in the past. As you chant this sound over and over let your heart awaken
to this knowledge. "Y-E-S-H." It is so within you now. Your awakened mind is
present, waiting for you to claim its power.
Now add the final sound "U-A." "Y-E-S-H-U-A." I am not the one you are
chanting to. Do you realize this? I do not need this recognition, BUT YOU DO.
My mind is your mind, and my name is yours. It is time for you to claim who
you are. Chant it over and over, as often as you can. Call to the Christ in
You, and it will awaken.
Will you believe me when I tell you that the rest will happen on its own? What
do you wish to see in the world? Peace? Harmony? Adopt the vision that was
given before time began and these things will appear before you. Why haven't
they before Now? Because you needed the world to reflect what you believed to
be true. It is that simple. But now you are ready to allow a new Truth to dawn
upon your mind, one that is eternal and beyond all change. It has always been
there, but your eyes have been closed to its brilliance. Open Now! This is the
essence of being a Spiritual Peacemaker. It is an art. It is your path to
freedom. Choose peace now. You are ready.

Today I would speak to you about your passion and desire.
What do you hold dear in this world? Are you willing to offer everything you
love to the One from whom all Love flows, knowing that only Love will return
to you? Or do you believe that you must sacrifice what you love in order to
have everything you desire? Be honest with yourself. What do you hold dear in
this world?
Perhaps you will say your children, or your special relationship. What would
happen to them if you completely accepted your role as an Emissary of Love,
leaving behind all the things that do not serve that end? Would you still be
able to provide for their needs? Would your relationship end, unable to
compete with the great tide of energy that flows toward you even now?
Whether you are aware of it or not, these are some of the questions in your
mind. You believe that a sacrifice is required of you, and that God would ask
you to surrender all the things of time in order to embrace the eternal
within. It is the natural state of the ego, which you still cling to. And yet,
our goal is not to erase these conditions, for that would only amplify them.
We desire only to focus on what is true, and to let that truth grow in our
hearts and minds till all the symbols of fear are replaced.
You are afraid of love! Take a deep breath now. You will not be able to heal
that wound until you embrace it. You will not be able to move to the next
level of your Self unless you first accept your fear of love. Then your
passion will be released on its own, without effort on your part. Then you
will open like a flower, and your Holy Task will enfold you. Your fear of love
will ultimately catapult you into a life you can only imagine now, for then
you will have compassion for yourself and all the world. This is what an
Emissary of Love, or a savior, must learn. That is why you are here now,
reading these words and accepting these Blessed Thoughts. You are ready to
move forward now.
Your passion has been sleeping within you and must now be awakened. This will
happen the moment you desire one thing. Your challenge has been that you
desire more than one thing, and so you are not able to see that all desires
are the same. If you choose in darkness, then shadows will enfold everything
you perceive. But if you choose in the Light, then they will shine as you
shine, and be blessed by your Holy Desire. Passion and desire stand together
in your mind and cannot be separated. We will now open to the One Desire that
will lead you to the goal you seek - the Peace of God. Nothing else in this
world can satisfy you now. You have come too far.
If I told you that you must desire only love, it would only confuse your mind.
(Though this is, in fact, the final path we will walk together.) You have been
given so many concepts of what love is and isn't, and they have only clouded
your thoughts. Therefore, what we seek is the Peace that your mind can never
comprehend, the Light that extends beyond all thoughts of time and space.
Your passion and desire are the keys that unlock this door. You must desire
this over all things. All things! You must be willing to give up everything
you perceive in this world in order to enjoy the Light that extends past this
world. YOU MUST WANT IT ABOVE ALL THINGS. Only then will it be yours.
Pay attention for a moment to any emotions you are feeling right now. Did the
thought of lack, in any degree, enter your mind? "What will I lose?" "Who will
I lose?" This is the basic dilemma of the ego: it has linked gain and loss,
thinking that to accept everything you must sacrifice something else. Pay
attention to this! WHEN YOU ACCEPT EVERYTHING, NOTHING IS LOST! I once said
that if you seek only the Kingdom of God, then everything else will be given
to you automatically. When you seek only love, then love will return, and this
is where your truest desire lies hidden. Love will flow to you from every
direction, not just the ones you ordain. Life will find you; you won't have to
find it. Therefore, let your passion be released and desire only the Gifts God
would offer. Then your hunger will be satisfied, and your thirst will be
forever quenched.
Then you will enter the Wheel of life. Then you will know yourself to be an
Emissary of Love.
You are not here to bring worldly peace, but the Peace of God. You cannot
understand this yet. Your mind will never be able to understand it. But the
wider you open your heart the simpler it will become, until it is like a game
children play. Then you will laugh where before you cried. Then you will know
that love cannot be replaced by anything this world holds dear, for only love
truly exists, now and forever.
Your desire is mine, and mine is yours. Are you willing to link your mind, and
your passion, with mine? It is not the personality you are linking with, but
the force behind the personality. This is what animates your Spirit and mine,
the Life that ignites all Life. This is the time you chose to undergo this
transformation. Time can be your ally or a thief. Choose to use it wisely, and
it will reveal the gifts that exist beyond your concept of time. There is
nothing left for you to do now but embrace your passion for peace. Your desire
is the path that will lead you to your chosen goal.
