Each is the Light of the World
These teachings are for the mind, not the brain, not the body.
Keep in mind that words or terms used here are for commonality of understanding and for referencing. They do not reflect a preference for a particular dogma, practice, or religion. Mind contains the spirit and spirit is also the mind. The term or name "Holy Spirit" does not just refer to the spirit named in the Christian Religion. It is a term used to indicate the part of our mind that was given to us as a guide, a communication medium from our human mind to our spirit mind and creation. The Holy Spirit in the mind communicates to us expressed in our emotions.
"A Course In Miracles" teaches the mind is the active agent of spirit, which is our will, desire, mostly not-conscious. Urantia Papers tell us our human mind is the soil of evolution, potentially evolving into the divine being we were created to be. The "Law of One" tells us, there is only one mind and it is universal. Within our minds we are taught is Christ's mind, the mind of our creator, giving us the ability to create as our creator.
Knowledge and the acceptance of our spirit nature is the light, because knowledge of it can only be realized and accepted by the mind. The Holy Spirit leads us, if we will, to the enlightenment of our minds. This enlightenment is the light and is in the world as we maintain the light in this world. Below are concepts from "A Course in Miracles" expounding the nature of our existence where each of us are the light of the world .
"God has lit your minds Himself, and keeps your mind lit BY His light because His light is WHAT YOUR MINDS ARE. This is TOTALLY beyond question.
The power of one mind shines into another, because all minds were lit by the same spark. It is everywhere, and it is eternal.
No darkness abides ANYWHERE in the Kingdom, and so your part is only to allow no darkness to abide in your OWN mind.
This alignment with Light is unlimited, because it is in alignment with the Light of the world. Each of us IS the Light of the world, and by joining our minds IN this Light, we proclaim the Kingdom of God together and AS ONE.
The Holy Spirit is the light in which Christ stands revealed. And all who would behold Him can see Him, for they have ASKED for light. Nor will they see Him ALONE, for He is no more alone than THEY are. Because they SAW the Son, they have risen IN Him to the Father.
ALL THIS WILL THEY UNDERSTAND, BECAUSE THEY LOOKED WITHIN, and saw, beyond the darkness, the Christ in them, and RECOGNIZED Him.
In the sanity of His vision, THEY LOOKED UPON THEMSELVES WITH LOVE, seeing themselves as the Holy Spirit sees them. And WITH this vision of the truth in THEM, came all the beauty of the world to shine upon them.
Your life, complete and whole, belongs to God or none of it is His.
There is no thought in all the world that seems more terrible. Yet it is only when this thought appears in perfect clarity that there is hope in peace and safety for the mind so long kept dark and twisted to avoid the light.
This is the light.
Step back and do not dwell upon the forms that seem to keep you bound.
You will fulfill your function. And will have whatever you will need.
God does not fail. But lay no limits on what you would give to Him to be resolved."
