Waking up from the dream of this world

The preface to A Course in Miracles says: “Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. In this lies the peace of God.”

Ask yourself if there is anything in this world that remains forever. The answer is simple: everything in this material world is susceptible to destruction. In fact, with the passage of time, our planet will disappear. Therefore, this world, in essence, is not real; it is not our true home, even though it may seem so in this dream/nightmare.

The world was born out of fear, and fear is what sustains it. It is meaningless to perceive life exclusively as a biological sequence of events involving birth, development, and death, as it becomes routine with an inevitable end.

The world is a classroom of experience and learning, a great theater, which can lead us to our true home if we change our perception and begin to see life through the eyes of Love.
