SPECIAL/SACRED

The teaching was first given you through A Course In Miracles in its discourses on “specialness”. Then, it came to you through the Lord God Id and the teaching that “all things are holy, no-thing is sacred”.

This is a very subtle aspect of judgment driven by the ego’s need to be “special”.
And the ego has worked its spell in very insidious ways. When the spiritual aspirant begins its work with the ego, it attempts to become very humble, often adopting a position of false humility….”I am nothing”. What is not realized is that this is an arrogant position. If God/Divine Mind considers you to be ALL then “you” must think that you are ABOVE GOD to be able to declare that you are Less Than All.

Another trick of the ego, is to attribute everything it accomplishes in the spiritual progression to its self, thereby developing a “spiritual ego”….”see what I know/ have done/ can do.” Again, this is an attitude of arrogance, designed to separate by placing one “above”.

The identification of special or sacred is meant to determine delineation of “above” or “below” for the purpose of exaltation. To the ego, it is VERY important that such a distinction is valid, because the ego constantly judges itself as above or below and determines its mode of experience by such determination.

In Truth, there is no-thing that is special/sacred because there is no-thing that is not special/sacred. There are no sacred places because there are no not-sacred places. There are no sacred stones because there are no not-sacred stones. There are no holy people because there are no not-holy people. There ARE difference expressions of frequency, but ALL are of the whole – holy that is the ALL.

Set no-thing and no-one apart in any way, neither above nor below. Rejoice instead in the ALL that is the One.
