So forgivness is not a feeling I have to feel, right?

Question: "I have worked with the ACIM for some years now, and I love it. So forgivness is not a feeling I have to feel, right? I made it myself, it is not real, so I let it go? How do I forgive my mind?"

Nick's answer:
> So forgiveness is not a feeling I have to feel, right?

Not at all, it is just a process. A willingness. That's all you need to know. You could be practicing your forgiveness process, even if you are still feeling angry or disturbed because the process of undoing the ego is not something we do, it is done through us. As you continue practicing it, the time comes when that very experience which used to trigger anger or disturbance in you no longer has any effect on you. That's what is referred to as the peace that passes understanding. It is really very simple. Not always easy, but the process is simple, and in due time you notice how it is working for you.

> I made it myself,it is not real, so I let it go?

Yes, but that is the intellectual understanding, not your experience. So you willingness is all that matters. And then you trust that the process is working, even when at times, it does not feel that way. I've been there, lol!

> How do i forgive my mind

Undoing is not your task. So just let that go. However you have to welcome it. Welcoming means, you are willing to surrender your thoughts to the Holy Spirit, He is the one in charge of the undoing. "Undoing is not your task, but it is
up to you to welcome it or not." T-21.II8:5

And here is A Course in Miracles summarized:

"When your peace is threatened or disturbed in any way, say to yourself,

I do not know what anything, including this, means. And so I do not know how to respond to it. And I will not use my own past learning as the light to guide me now." T-14.XI.6:6-9

That's all you need to do. A Course in Miracles is VERY SIMPLE! Don't get too caught up in the words because all the Course is doing is looking at the ego from all different angles so that our stubborn mind can finally be willing to release its attachments of illusions.

So if you are okay with not having to know, your awakening process radically accelerates because of your willingness to trust in the Holy Spirit, your True Self. That's all that there is to know. Or you can spend years and years studying it as many people do and continue keeping the guilt inside FOREVER!!!
