Aspects of Reality

From Perception to Knowledge

“All healing is release from the past. That is why the Holy Spirit is the only Healer. He teaches that the past does not exist, a fact which belongs to the sphere of knowledge, and which, therefore, no one in the world can know. It would indeed be impossible to be in the world with this knowledge. For the mind that knows this unequivocally, knows also it dwells in eternity, and utilizes no perception at all. It therefore, does no consider where it is, because the concept ‘where’ does not mean anything to it. It knows that it is everywhere, just as it has everything, and forever.

“The very real difference between perception and knowledge become quite apparent if you consider this: There is nothing partial about knowledge. Every aspect is whole, and therefore, no aspect is separate. You are an aspect of knowledge, being in the Mind of God, Who knows you. All knowledge must be yours, for in you is all knowledge. Perception, at ist loftiest, in never complete. Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in Heaven. Perception can reach everywhere under His guidance, for the vision of Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no perception, however holy, will last forever.

“Perfect perception, then, has many elements in common with knowledge, making transfer to it possible. Yet the last step must be taken by God, because the last step in your redemption, which seems to be in the future, was accomplished by God in your creation. The separation has not interrupted it. Creation cannot be interrupted. The separation is merely a faulty formulation of reality, with no effect at all. The miracle, without a function in Heaven, is here. Aspects of reality can still be seen, and they will replace aspects of unreality. Aspect of reality can be seen in everything and everywhere. Yet only God can gather them together, by crowning them as one with the final gift of eternity.”
