The end of attack..

All attack exists in our illusion of separation...

All attack ends beyond it...


It is only in our perception of separation that there is someone who could hurt us, or be hurt by us...


The us that we make is small, separate, will attack, and be attacked...




The "us" that was created and extended by God can never be attacked...


For we are eternally one with everything in a reality beyond time...


This is a state that is beyond attack, for there is nothing that exists outside of us to attack or be attacked...




Asking the Holy Spirit to guide you to experience this state, is asking to know truth...


Every illusion we let go of, brings us closer to that "real us" beyond all illusions...


It is then, that "attack" will cease to exist...

The faith of release...

I am silent right now...

Soreness in the throat, ear hurts inside, and the voice has faded...


Yet it is only the voice of the body that has faded...


The real me is still unchanged...

No matter what happens to the body, the real you always remains unchanged...


Yes, God is perfect, and extended you in Gods own image as the timeless, eternal, unchanging, unconditional love, peace, eternal joy and bliss that the "spirit you" as alway been...


The real you was created though a pure extension of God, and is thus timeless and eternal...

It is forever unchanging as it extends eternally in all directions, without limitation...




Look around were you believe your body self to be, and you will notice nothing but limitations...

For the body you is very small, and very limited...

It is limited in knowledge...

Limited in abilities...

Limited for it seems to be separate from everything...


It even has an expiration date just like food does...even though you are not told what this expiration date is...



Yet though all these limitations so many of you insist in placing all of your identity in this little body...

Why is that?

Because that "little you" is familiar to you...


Thus it feels safe and secure to you on some level...

Because you know it...


Fear often arises when you even think or consider what is outside of this little you...



This is not amusing, as peace, love and eternal joy are what awaits...




Yet just as a first time diver - you stand, and jump up and down on the board...

Will you take the plunge?


Will you release what you have made, to embrace what God has created...that timeless eternal you that is pure unconditional love...


Deep faith is about letting go of what your not "judged, judging, just a body, not connected, conditionally loved, conditionally loving, fear, hurt, sadness, pain, suffering, loss..."



To embrace what you are - a wonderful timeless, eternal spirit that is unchanging, unconditional love, peace, eternal joy and bliss...


To give up a dream of separation - to awaken to an eternity of joy...


I want nothing more than for you to experience who you are in the deepest level...


for you to experience complete peace...complete and total love...


So will you continue to dream...

For as long as you hold onto the "nothing of separation from the unconditional love that you are..."

you will continue your dream of being away from God...you will have and lose all that you love, and then do it again - in a "groundhog day" - till you decide you will make another choice...






Where do you want to root your identity next?


or will you choose to awaken...


Do you want to choose that you that is timeless and eternal joy and bliss?


You have the power to choose joy or pain in every moment of your life...


Where do you put your faith in this moment?


Will you give up nothing, to gain everything?


Know peace, know unconditional love, know the real you...


You can chose to know this NOW...


What lies beyond the limited is the eternal you...


To experience the eternal in every moment of now...

To know God within and without in the eternal bliss of you...

Books? Yea baby!

Can You Spell Bibliophile?

November 13th, 2007 by Richard Cockrum

Do you like books. I like books. I like the smell of old paper. I like the feel of the binding as it rests in my hand while I (click here to read the rest of Ricks post)

My wife, daughter and I all love books.

My reading started when I was very young. I read mostly books on science and human behavior. Eventually my interest shifted to spirituality.

I never knew the fun and adventure you can have in fiction books. My wife turned me onto reading sci-fi and fantasy. It was a wonderful escape into a world of imagination. I read some of David Eddings books which I enjoyed.

My wife and I read the whole Harry Potter series together. Awesome character development there. Get you to care about the characters as if they were your own kids. Very enjoyable reading!

Here is my replies to Rick's Questions:

How many books do I have?

We have just over a thousand books in our home.

What’s the last book I read?

"The Biology of Belief" by Bruce Lipton on Audio book. This is a fantastic book that bridges the science of biology and our thoughts, beliefs and outer world (signals) that choose which DNA blueprints will be not only be selected, but how they will be read.

It blows the old gene theory of predetermination by our inherited genes right out of the water!

If you have ever asked the question why is the body the way that it is?

Buy, and listen to this book! This is one you really want on audio book.

What’s the last book I bought?

Zen in the Art of Archery by Eugen Herrigel. I have not had the chance to read it yet. So no reviews yet.

Five (plus one) Meaningful Books

1. The Celestine Prophecy - by James Redfield - This is the great adventure into beginning spiritual concepts in an Indiana Jones style of fun

2. The Power of NOW - On audio book - I highly suggest getting the audio book of this book. This is a wonderful beginning into deeper spiritual concepts. I have now recommended this book to over a thousand different people and only one out of all of them did not finish it because they did not like it.

3. The Disappearance of the Universe - by Gary Renard - If you have ever said just give me the answers. Just hit me over the head with them. Then this book is for you. Read it to the very end without judgment then go back and read it again. Then buy the audio book and listen to that too. I have recommended this book to hundreds of people who have loved it. It is a very profound - but easy read.

4. Your Immortal Reality - by Gary Renard - Go deeper into the practice of the first book. Both books are a wonderful foundation to the next book on my list of must reads. They are all about this next book.

5. A Course in Miracles - published by a Foundation for Inner Peace - Just as the bible was a spiritual guide for people many, many generations back when it was first wrote. It was of course, wrote for people of that time period in their spiritual evolution.


You know when people where young in their spirituality and thought God can be perfect and judging at the same time.


When they thought that God could be unconditionally loving yet judging and wrathful at the same time.


When you think about how God is described in the Bible its as if he was a toddler. Happy one moment, and throwing a temper tantrum the next. Jealous because he did not get his way and acting out as a result of this.


It was wrote for the people of that time period. Like most books written in the past. It still has some good things to say that apply now too.


A Course in Miracles is written for our generation. Was it divinely inspired? Just read a few pages and you be the judge.


It is the most profound spiritual work of art that I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing.


Yes, it is an actual experience in discovering who you are as spirit. It is a systematic stripping away of who you are not. To embrace who you really are and discover the true meaning of the word peace.


It addresses who your not, (your ego mind) in attempt to bring you to who you are - That timeless eternal spirit created by God in all your glory.


It is a path to awakening now.


It is by far the best book I have ever read.


I am currently sharing and teaching a class in A Course in Miracles - It is a wonderful experience beyond words.

I am gratful...

As I was reading Shards of Consciousness Sunday Reading 11 Nov 2007. (Which BTW I really love reading)

I read about Nneka running a Season of Gratitude



The fingers begin to type as my mind goes blank...

I am grateful for my father - God...

I am thankful to be an extension of God...

Created for the purpose of sharing love, creating, and extending that love in an infinite kingdom that is beyond time...

When I am not dreaming of being away, I experience that love that is beyond words...

I experience the full meaning of my creation in infinite bliss...

I am thankful for my role as a guide in the dream of separation...

I am thankful that it is only in a nightmare that we could be separate from God...

I am thankful that only in a nightmare could we hurt one another...

In a nightmare where we forgot to laugh...

In a nightmare where we forgot who we are...

In a nightmare where we forgot God...

I am thankful for your voice gently calling...

It's OK, you were just dreaming...You've never left me...I could never forsake you...you are my extension and my love...

Peace be it that which knows "only love is real..."

I am thankful for your voice, as it is my voice...as "our voice" is but one...

I rejoice as each part of one mind finds the truth of love and awakens...

I am thankful to see Christ in each and every person, no matter how deeply they try to hide who they really are...

I am thankful for most powerful word in our language...

Surrender...

To surrender the attachment of an individual dream identity, to know the eternal spirit that you are...

I am thankful to be able to give up what is nothing, to gain what is everything...

I am thankful for this eternal moment of NOW in which peace knows no end...

I am thankful for you reading this...for as you do - Christ's eyes are reading these words, and smiling deeply within...

The infinite step...

We see our foot on the ground as we take a step...

We have taken many steps though out what we call life...


Which of these has been forward?

Which has been in reverse?



We think we know where life begins and ends...



If you think you know, then you are wrong...

For "thinking" is of the mind, and the mind has no idea where real life begins and ends...


Your spirit however, knows this well...

It knows its beginning as a "spark of extension" of a love so pure it defines the word "unconditional"...

It knows not it's ending...for it has no ending...


It is forever infinite...

Who you really are can never die...

Endings are only for dreams...


For "God" is your beginning, and your continuation...



Aren't you glad to know you can choose to be who you really are?

The Halloween Massacre...

It is a party at Halloween...

A gathering of friends...

A time to dress up and pretend you're something that you're not...

For the other 364 days a year we usually wear a different costume...

Still pretending to be who we are not...



For if your thoughts, words, and actions are not based from the unconditional love that is in your heart...

You are wearing a costume...

You may even judge people who dress up for Halloween...

A "hypocrite" is not who you really are either...

It too, is just pretend...



When will you decide to know "who you are" beyond your costume?

When will you decide to know peace?


At Halloween dress up and party - for realizing that you are in costume all the time allows for time to ask "What is
beyond my outfit?"



For love begins when you ask "who I'm I?"

The person you see in the mirror is so small compared to the real you, it's like the very tip of a needle...





Let this Halloween be a massacre of the "need" to judge others, or yourself...

The sharing of laugher with friends is what is left - when judgment is no more...

Which teacher will you choose?

There are teachers of love, and teachers of hate...

Which you will be a student of - says a lot about who you feel you are...


We you learn peace of unity, or more pain of separation?



Which teacher will you choose?

Why will you choose them?


Know peace or know judgment...

For there is no in between...

To judge is to instantly be judged for it is a mirror that stands in front of you...

Whether you see Christ standing in front of you - or a "lonely person" depends on which teacher you have learned from...

Which teacher will you choose?

The smile of Christ is yours...

To meet one - where they feel they are...

To share in what they feel...

They are not alone...

You are there...

Christ is there - as one - in both of you...

To look into the eyes of another is to see the face of God in you...

For what you feel is "separate" is but an illusion...

What you feel as "one" - is truth...



Walk in this moment...

Two hands - with fingers intertwined...

Two palms touching with the warmth of embrace...


Love...

Union...

To know this "union" is to know truth...

For love is truth...

What is in your heart is truth...

Share the union of palms touching...

The smile of Christ is yours...

ACIM Group!

This past Wednesday night I was able to start teaching and sharing at a new "A Course in Miracles" (ACIM) Group.

It is a wonderful collection of people!

They are genuine in their search for truth of who they really are, and how to achieve eternal peace.

I am very please to share these teaching with this group.

I will post a short post on the teachings that are being shared as we go along. Next meeting is two Wednesdays from now.

Before starting ACIM - I suggest reading "The Disappearance of the Universe" by Gary Renard. Then "Your Immortal Reality" by Gary Renard

Then the course will make much more sense when you read it.

Have a wonderful weekend!
