GUIDANCE From Elder Brother ~ "Healing"
ACIM ORIGINAL EDITION  

TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: In His Guidance, He has asked Me to capitalize the pronouns You and We as an acknowledgement of the Divinity of All of Us, an acknowledgement of Equality, an expression of His Love and respect for You.  

When You see the word 'YOU'  capitalized in the Guidance, know that He is not just speaking to YOU, He is honoring YOU.

REQUEST for GUIDANCE: "P. needs help with her back." 

Indeed. I long for her to really feel just how much she is loved by Me and by the Father; how the Holy Spirit is by her side at all times supporting her.

I would have her feel into the Holy Spirit as frequently as possible, till They slip together into Oneness for It is but her Right Mind. And when the Mind is 100%, so will be her back.

Now this is very possible and not so hard at all. It simply calls for absolutely constant connection. For allowing the Holy Spirit to make all the calls on everything is to allow Her (the Holy Spirit) to Be her (P.). And Sun~Rose You may take this advice as well, for it will bring Light (just like fasting does for You and You reflect It to Your Loved One who needs healing.).

I cannot say enough about the importance of the constant connection. It is a 24/7 two-step so to speak. You stop and put aside Your usual knee-jerk reactions to things and then step back and yield to the Father or the Holy Spirit. Yet it goes quite beyond that, if You are willing. It is a surrendering up of the ego, like the losing army throwing down their guns and coming out of ambush with their hands up.

And then it is a complete surrender to the Holy Spirit. For the Holy Spirit is You, You know. So You are really giving You back to You. Multiply this by a thousand-fold, and then imagine millions giving up the dream. All from the willingness of One to completely surrender to the Holy Spirit. Good is contagious.

Now You both may be thinking: “We only asked Him how to heal P’s backache and He’s got Us healing the world! Yes! And every problem truly handed over holds that potential.

And there are no backaches with the Consciousness of Heaven. And there is so much happiness awaiting You.

All this and healing too.

GUIDANCE~WHAT TO SAY ABOUT CANCER?

Most people do not realize that cancer grows first within their minds, only to get manifested later.  Its inception starts with an idle thought that does not get corrected.  And thus, resentment has been generated.

The feeling may be obvious, or it may manifest as hurt.  This can be worse for the rage is being hidden.   It grows underground and silently, fed by more thoughts like the very first one.  And so the cancer grows like monster pigweed, till it seems invincible.  Both cutting and burning it are ineffective and it breaks the farm equipment.  Yet, for both cancer and the pigweed, there is a simple treatment.

For no matter how far it’s spread, the monster can be vanquished by the activity of just one word.  You know it already.  It is forgiveness.

One is either here for giving or for getting.  What is the bitter fruit of resentment?  Is it not for getting even?  While the sweet fruit of forgiveness frees both the ‘violator’ and the ‘victim’, giving great good to both.

How is this done when self-righteousness is just so delicious?  It’s very simple; just ask the Holy Spirit to help You.  S/He’s Johnny on the spot responding to requests for help to manage forgiveness.

Why is forgiveness so effective?  Because true forgiveness is the realization of the unreality of dreaming.  As the Course says, You are forgiving Your Brother for something that He didn’t do.  Well the Truth is that cancer is no more real that Your Brother’s actions.  God knows naught of cancer so it rests upon no foundation but an unreal dream.

While believing in the dream, the healing of resentment brings beautiful transformation, so the mind wherein the cancer took its root is freed from such a possibility.  And the body follows mind like a puppy trained to leash.

Forgiveness is the greatest healer.  The timing is perfect for this question, quite congruent with the Lessons which do train the mind and heart to forgive all Brothers, replacing grievances with gentle Love.
