Undoing Linear Time

Hypothetical thinking is the whole problem, that things could somehow be different from how they are. Thinking that the future can be different than the past keeps you stuck in time. The script is written. Only handing over what you see to the Holy Spirit will get you out of time. Learn to give time over to the Holy Spirit and you shorten time for everyone. See it completely differently, in the now. There are no problems right now. They are all time-based, all hypothetical; the future is the past. Seeking to change the world is seeking to change the past. “I see only the past.” W-7 It is over and gone. The mind fears future consequences; protects the body. We believe there is safety where there isn’t safety.
But the whole thing is a trick. What if you set aside your fear of consequences and live from love? The ego spun out the linear script. But to the Holy Spirit, time is simultaneous. The Holy Spirit is about the collapse of time in the holy instant and that is brought about by desire. You do nothing, let your mind rest. Stillness is energizing; this is a complete reversal of the thinking of the world.
The most useful thing you can do is really desire God, desire awakening. Let go of all concepts and the mechanics of spirituality. To judge not requires a lot of trust. The holy instant is not a moment in time; it is a state of being before time. In The Matrix, Neo is waiting for the oracle to tell him he’s the one. But there is nothing outside of you that can tell you you’re the one. She tells him to read the “Know thy self” sign. He says, “I’m not the one.” She just reflects his mind. No one can tell you who you are. When your mind is ready to accept what it really is, it does. You cannot find yourself in duality. Inside and outside are duality, more concepts.
Follow the workbook. The world is all subjective. There is no objective world apart from the perceiver. Quantum physics shows it is impossible to take the observer out of the experiment. The experimenter always influences the experiment; that undoes the scientific model. In practical terms, everything you perceive is what you believe. And the only way you can change your perception is by forgiving what you believe, releasing it and accepting the correction, which will show you a very different world. No configuration of specifics in form will give you the key. The world will end in laughter.
