Does A Course in Miracles Teach That I Desire a Holy Relationship in Order to Awaken?
I wish to ask you by what A Course in Miracles means by Holy Relationship. In one single area of the book it talks about “entering the ark” together, and it almost sounds like you need another specific person in order to awaken. Therefore, I believe I approach each new person with the expectation that maybe THIS could possibly be the connection that reflects enlightenment to me, and I to them! Am I taking this too literally? Or do you actually need another to assist you awaken?a course in miracles

David Hoffmeister: Thanks for your openness and your willingness to look deeply at what's underneath these topics and issues. A Course in Miracles teaches that the split mind contains both the situation (the ego) and the Solution (the Holy Spirit). When they're brought together, only One remains.
Your body and the planet are usually the focus of ego's perspective, for this seeks to produce real problems and struggles on the planet and to steer clear of the inner Healing Correction of the Holy Spirit. The ego's distorted world is the product of identity confusion, an outpicturing of the belief that it's possible to produce an identity which God did not create. The ego is this identity problem and it was Answered or forgiven by the Holy Spirit the instant it seemed to arise. That one problem could possibly be described being an authority problem or perhaps a confusion in who is the writer of Reality. Your brain that believes in the truth of the time-space cosmos has a get a handle on issue, for this believes that it can cause itself. This ego mind also thinks it is in competition with God, although this really is pushed out of conscious awareness. This unconscious ego thought system is exposed in the A Course in Miracles Workbook lessons, and for reference Workbook Lesson 13 contains a great example of this unveiling.
