I am not the victim of the world I see

 "I am not the victim of the world I see".

~ A Course in Miracles

That there is another way of seeing than fight, flight or freeze is what I hold Jesus (and of course all true witness) to reveal and support.

To make an identity in the world is to be identified by our own judgements (I WANT it Thus!) and our grievance set against whatever is scapegoated for our sense of denial and deprivation.

That which identifies truly is not IN the world but through us, can shine on our world as a witness that can of course transform and heal conflicts locked down in projective masking displacements.

So yield not to power in the 'world' but give due acknowledgement and recognition to all and any witness to truth that heals, by restoring to presence of an integrated gratitude for being.

Leave the mind open for truth to find you or in cynicism despair we will interpret all things backwards.

And you will weep each time an idol falls....

But come to recognise the release of a great burden.

The world as idol, is set as 'thing in itself' through a sense of self-in-itself.

The undoing of self-illusions will of course not just apply to 'wickedness' or faults seen in others.

Especially if we put them there by wanting to see the sins of others to conceal our own.

Where you choose to yield is up to you. But no one is a self-in-themself - and the wish to yield to the idea of a self set apart and over the world and others is the pride that sets up the fall to subjugation to all that we thought to judge or 'control'. "Judge not...".

However my judgements - given to the Holy Spirit of a true discernment, reveal a lot about me! - or should I say the habits and beliefs that run beneath even my presentation to myself - let alone what I choose to present out to 'world'. The fig-leaves are falling away like popping balloons from the stripper on stage. the consolidation of 'cover-narratives for a diminishing return amidst a prodigal wasteland, is relative to the need or demand to hide in or hide from.

To come out as love is not so rare for the dying.

If it wasn't for the last minute nothing would get done (said someone - I forgot her name), but there are the 'last places' we would willingly look or be open to receiving answer. And in this wise I notice we who seeking a way for Life rather than for fear's hiding from feared and hated life, are obliged to associate in aspects of what would once have been mapped out of bounds. Willingness for communication and relationship shed the terms and conditions of prejudice, and acquires the discernment of masking agenda that seeks to use communication against its true function.

Humanity is the baby in the bathwater that judgements override. Compassion is 'being with' - not unlike midwiving. I may meet disturbing and negative emotional states in process of reintegrating to a deeper self-honesty of being, but they are not who I am calling forth and seeking to birth into my world. Beware of being baited into reaction by weaponised appeal to our sympathy. True recognition never conforms another in victimhood. You are not a case, a trend, a statistic or an infection risk, nor any other framing that locks you down and masks as if to protect or mitigate fear. But weaning from our masking identity is willingness and not a witch-hunt of coercive intent. release this in ourselves and find our immunity restored - for it takes one to know one.

If that applies as the sowing and reaping that Mind is - then indeed be the world you want in truth of love to meet, and recognise every moment of meeting as an opportunity to release and be released. Or to persist as if I already know and don't really need to come present to a judged habit of a world - which may be more transparent to such a vision by the coercive inducement to a change of habit. But there is another voice that the framing of fear, as loud as our willingness to listen.
