Wakey wakey dirt worshippers!
ACIM should've started out with a really explicit statement like "planet earth does not exist, human bodies do not exist, and space and time do not exist." You know, for all those stubborn and delusional folk who continually cling to them and insist that they do. Oh wait...
"Yet it can be but an illusion, because time does not exist "
"The body does not really exist"
"And gone are bodies in the blazing light upon the altar to the Son of God."
"A no time does the body really exist."
"The body is the symbol of WHAT YOU THINK YOU ARE. It is clearly a separation device, and therefore does not exist."
"Let us today behold earth disappear" "There is no world."
"And once all guilt is gone what more remains to keep a separated world in place? For place has gone as well, along with time. "
"and in that instant is the world forgot, with time forever ended as the world spins into nothingness from where it came."
"God did not make the body, because it is destructible, and therefore not of the Kingdom."
"the sorry gifts of earth are joyously relinquished"
"The sky embraces it, and softly holds it in its perfect place, which is as far from earth as earth from Heaven."
"Yet he whom I forgive will give me gifts beyond the worth of anything on earth."
"Time remains only to let the last embrace of prayer rest on the earth an instant, as the world is shined away. This instant is the goal of all true healers"
"The little things of earth have disappeared."
"The stars will disappear in light, and the sun, which opened up the world to beauty, will vanish."
"The world you see is an illusion of a world. God did not create it." ... "The time will come when all things visible will have an end."
"There is nothing on earth with which it can compare, and nothing you have ever felt, APART from Him, that resembles it ever so faintly."
"The things of earth are left behind, all unremembered."
"How could there be a meeting place at all where earth and Heaven can be reconciled within a mind where both of them exist?"
"The body is the symbol of the world. Leave it behind. It cannot enter Heaven. But I can take you there anytime you choose. Together we can watch the world disappear and its symbol vanish as it does so."
"The world can ADD nothing to the power and the glory of God and His Holy Sons, but it CAN blind the Sons to the Father if they behold it. You cannot behold the world and know God."
"earth the other's sorry outcome which is Heaven's opposite in every way"
"Without the idea of death there is no world. All dreams will end with this one."
"Others find it in experience that is not of this world, which shows them that the world does not exist because what they behold must be the truth, and yet it clearly contradicts the world."
"Today's idea is true because the world does not exist."
"What if you recognized this world is a hallucination? What if you REALLY understood you made it up? What if you realized that those who SEEM to walk about in it, to sin and die, attack and murder and destroy themselves, are WHOLLY unreal?"
"The real world is the second part of the hallucination time and death are real, and have existence which can be perceived. This terrible illusion was denied in but the time it took for God to give His Answer to illusion for ALL time and EVERY circumstance."

Yes, the challenge is how to make sure we are awake and remember it…
