Just how to Be Reborn In the Light of Christ

[Asad shaikh]

Jesus was a man who reflected the Light of Christ. He reflected our actual being because the Christ, and the most a body can ever be, is a reflection of the mind.

Once the mind becomes pure and unified, it recognizes Itself because the Mind of Christ. When that Divine Mind is reflected in a body, you've a reflection of the, but a reflection is not actuality. Christ is a Light that's prior to time.

How Can We Be Reborn In the Light of Christ Within?

We've to stop protecting the crumbling ego self-concept, and expose and release the shame that's hidden in the mind. When you have been judged as a failure, now you can say, “Well, I failed previously for sure. I was a failure previously, but it isn't me. That's not me. I'm alive. acim I'm reborn again in Christ. I'm fresh and clean and clear in this moment, and I have nothing related to the self concept.”

Forgiveness allows us to stop protecting the crumbling image that the ego made of us.

Once we are reborn in the Light of Christ, whenever we give all our relationships and everything of time and space over to the Holy Spirit for His purpose, everything changes.

David: “This is the way my entire life has been. My connection with the dream of life has fundamentally shifted because my purpose shifted for me. It is for every one of us. It can't be simply for that one or this 1, because God doesn't have ‘chosen ones.' ”

All are called, and the Course says that few elect to listen. Have you been likely to be quite happy with that metaphor of “few elect to listen”? Who's surely got to listen? I've surely got to listen. I've surely got to follow. I've surely got to be the main one! I've surely got to be the one which steps up, and says, “I will answer the Call.” Like Neo in The Matrix became The One.

Jesus wants us to pass by the images of the entire world and to choose the Light. His goal is always to take us in to the vision of Christ, which is non-perceptual, to be reborn and feel anew, fresh, and alive. He wants us to be that reflection of the Light of Christ that's shining radiantly within!
