ACIM Podcast: What Could be the Holy Spirit and How Can I Hear His Voice?

The Holy Spirit may be called the still, small voice within the mind or the intuition that guides us. It's like a presence that people can sense once we get still enough to listen in and listen inwardly.

You need the Holy Spirit's help see things because they are, to see clearly without projection, judgment, and interpretation. The moment the ego judges someone else as lacking, it always compares and lets you know, “Well, you're not this way; you're beyond that.” This promotes inequality, division, and separation. You need to ask the Holy Spirit to begin cleaning the filter you're seeing through because that is the only real hope you have of truly not judging. Once you tap into that help, it's delightful. Every moment without a filter is delightful. a course in miracles apple podcast But if there is a concept or perhaps a judgment involved, then it is much better to just pause, introspect, and become aware of what that filter is. You are able to cultivate a willingness to question every value and every concept you hold. When you catch yourself judging or thinking that you know something, I advise you to exercise what I call, “stop, drop, and roll.” You first pause your running thoughts and your reactions; you stop! And second, you exercise your willingness to drop it. And third, you roll with the Spirit's guidance. When your filter starts clearing.

When your filter starts clearing and the more intuitive and less judging you feel, the more you reap the emotional benefits. You are able to tell by how you're feeling: you're more stable, you're calmer, and this is the way you know you're headed in the right direction. This develops into acceptance and a receptive mind, an open mind, a head that doesn't “already know.” Then a miracle within can happen.

The world encourages opinions; that's normal, but opinions block the knowledge of peace. Opinions do not need anything related to truth or reality. The “I-don't-know” state is humble.

In the Zen tradition, it is known as beginner's mind. It is a good experience to get up every day and feel like that you do not know anything. It is a beautiful feeling to not have an opinion but to be ready to accept being shown.

This Moment Is Your Miracle brings you tools to reverse all fearful thoughts and beliefs. Using these tools afford them the ability to obtain the complete sense of freedom and peace you've been yearning for.
