"Who uses but Christ-Vision finds a Peace so Deep and Quiet, Undisturbable and Wholly Changeless, that the world contains no counterpart." ~~~~~~ This speaks of my True nature. My True nature is not joy tinged with sorrow, happiness sprinkled with sad tears, or youth, beauty and strength that decays into old age and death. My True nature is Peace, Life, and an Undisturbed Quiet and Changlessness. Being immersed in the world of illusions, I cannot even imagine what this is like. But even in illusions, God cannot be hidden entirely. I have seen glimpses of Truth.
"Comparisons are quiet before this Peace." ~~~~~~ My Peace is hidden behind the veil of the world only because I allow it to be. The dream-world is world of comparison: right/wrong, up/down, good/evil, etc. God uses comparison to point to Truth. ACIM is a course in mind-training. I train my mind to look for God and put illusions and dreams behind me.
"And all the world departs in silence as this Peace envelops it, and gently carries it to Truth, no more to be the home of fear." ~~~~~~ As I practice forgiveness, I let go of things of the world and create a space for Peace to enter.
"For Love has come and healed the world by giving it Christ's Peace." ~~~~~~ Love, Peace, Quiet, Changeless, Truth......all different words to describe the same thing: Heaven/God. My illusions will disappear when I practice forgiveness, making room for Love and the Peace of Christ (who is the Sonship healed and Whole).
"Father, the Peace of Christ is given me, because it is Your Will that I be saved." ~~~~~~ As soon as I thought I "sinned," God gave correction. Error and correction are not even the right words, because God's World has no error and needs no correction, but these terms are for my understanding. Separation into the world of illusions never happened, but that I think it did is obvious. God Wills that I be in Heaven with Him....and I am.....though my Awareness seems to be of only dreams.
"Help me today but to accept Your Gift, and judge it not." ~~~~~~ I DO need help. I seemed to create a world of separation and believe in it entirely and completely. I cannot Awaken by my own effort. God knows the language of illusions, yet also Knows the Kingdom. I have no need to analyze or judge the means He gives me. I just need do my small part, which is forgiveness.
"For It has come to me to save me from my judgment on myself." ~~~~~~ The Help God has given me ~ the Course, Holy Spirit, Jesus, Atonement ~ whatever I want to call It, tells me to lay aside dreams. I seemed to separate myself from Heaven and I have judged myself harshly for it. I must lay aside dreams to make room for Truth.
