Lesson #113
Review of lessons 95 and 96
95 - I am on Self, united with my Creator.
96 - Salvation comes from my one Self.
The metaphysics of A Course In Miracles is based on the idea that God, our Higher Power, the Transcendent Ground Of Being is a non dualistic Oneness from which we have separated ourselves in what Jews and Christians call “the fall” in the biblical book of Genesis. A Course in Miracles reminds us that this separation from the Oneness is an illusion and today we celebrate this understanding and awareness.
In Alcoholics Anonymous, in the eleventh step, we are encouraged to seek through prayer and meditation conscious contact with this Oneness, and to acknowledge that salvation, healing, comes from joining once again with the Oneness from which we have separated.
In Unitarian Universalism we covenant together to affirm and promote the respect for the interdependent web of existence of which we are a part. I prefer the word “love” instead of “respect.”
Today we are asked to take five minutes at the beginning and the end of the day and several times in between to remind ourselves of who we really are, from whence we have come, to which we return, Joining with the Cosmic Consciousness filles us with peace, joy, and light.
