Everything I want:
lesson 122 of A Course in Miracles was the moment of my surrender, giving up any chase for enlightenment and committing myself to a life of forgiveness. The words in this lesson struck deeper than any spiritual text I'd read before, more than a promise, it was an immediate practice that brought instant relief to my world of sorrow.
forgiveness offered everything I wanted.
and decades later it still does, not quite yet my default mode of thinking...but closer now, and the peace that it offers is as profound as my deepest states of meditation. This is a radical shift in thinking, zen-like, a denial of conditioned thought in order to myself and others in original innocence. It's not bypassing, but truth finding, as any seeming slight or wound is explored for its opportunity to heal. Forgiveness is my path of yoga, a practice of grace that awakens me from dreams of separation to the reality of our shared existence in the instant of my practice.
indeed,
forgiveness offers everything I want.
