T-6.V-A:To Have, Give All to All

1. 1When your body and your ego and your dreams are gone, you will know that you will last forever. 2Perhaps you think this is accomplished through death, but nothing is accomplished through death, because death is nothing. 3Everything is accomplished through life, and life is of the mind and in the mind. 4The body neither lives nor dies, because it cannot contain you who are life. 5If we share the same mind, you can overcome death because I did. 6Death is an attempt to resolve conflict by not deciding at all. 7Like any other impossible solution the ego attempts, it will not work.

2. 1God did not make the body, because it is destructible, and therefore not of the Kingdom. 2The body is the symbol of what you think you are. 3It is clearly a separation device, and therefore does not exist. 4The Holy Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and translates it into a learning device. 5Again as always, He reinterprets what the ego uses as an argument for separation into a demonstration against it. 6If the mind can heal the body, but the body cannot heal the mind, then the mind must be stronger than the body. 7Every miracle demonstrates this.

3. 1I have said that the Holy Spirit is the motivation for miracles. 2He always tells you that only the mind is real, because only the mind can be shared. 3The body is separate, and therefore cannot be part of you. 4To be of one mind is meaningful, but to be one body is meaningless. 5By the laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless.

4. 1To the Holy Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in miracles. 2This is familiar enough to you by now, but it has not yet become believable. 3Therefore, you do not understand it and cannot use it. 4We have too much to accomplish on behalf of the Kingdom to let this crucial concept slip away. 5It is a real foundation stone of the thought system I teach and want you to teach. 6You cannot perform miracles without believing it, because it is a belief in perfect equality. 7Only one equal gift can be offered to the equal Sons of God, and that is full appreciation. 8Nothing more and nothing less. 9Without a range, order of difficulty is meaningless, and there must be no range in what you offer to your brother.

5. 1The Holy Spirit, Who leads to God, translates communication into being, just as He ultimately translates perception into knowledge. 2You do not lose what you communicate. 3The ego uses the body for attack, for pleasure and for pride. 4The insanity of this perception makes it a fearful one indeed. 5The Holy Spirit sees the body only as a means of communication, and because communicating is sharing it becomes communion. 6Perhaps you think that fear as well as love can be communicated; and therefore can be shared. 7Yet this is not so real as it may appear. 8Those who communicate fear are promoting attack, and attack always breaks communication, making it impossible. 9Egos do join together in temporary allegiance, but always for what each one can get separately. 10The Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. 11He never takes anything back, because He wants you to keep it. 12Therefore, His teaching begins with the lesson:

13To have, give all to all.

6. 1This is a very preliminary step, and the only one you must take for yourself. 2It is not even necessary that you complete the step yourself, but it is necessary that you turn in that direction. 3Having chosen to go that way, you place yourself in charge of the journey, where you and only you must remain. 4This step may appear to exacerbate conflict rather than resolve it, because it is the beginning step in reversing your perception and turning it right-side up. 5This conflicts with the upside-down perception you have not yet abandoned, or the change in direction would not have been necessary. 6Some remain at this step for a long time, experiencing very acute conflict. 7At this point they may try to accept the conflict, rather than take the next step towards its resolution. 8Having taken the first step, however, they will be helped. 9Once they have chosen what they cannot complete alone, they are no longer alone.
