The consolation of art : Comments

By Peter Sellick, published 4/10/2013

The true potential of the visual arts is that they offer the possibility of responding to the great issues of faith, without words, a truth that has no explanation.

The faulty/use of creation has made.this necessary as a corrective device...“And God so loved the world..that He gave his only begotten Son.so that whosoever..believeth..on Him shall/not perish*

but..have Eternal Life”
needs only one slight correction..to be
entirely meaningful in this context...It should read

“And God so loved the world that
he gave it*..TO His..only begotten Son.”

It should be..noted that God
HAS begotten..only..*ONE Son.

you could..agree with that?
a simple yes..or know..will..suffice

continues

thats why we need peter..
to..do do some..saint making..so we get the full revelation

chists divided house..has many saintly teachers
many messengers were sent..to many peoples
each landmass..has its comforter

jesus..number 1 son..what ya think
do not deny..me again..peter

well

what ya think?

Know Your..Magnetic Field

It is..worth repeating..that ultimately..
there is no compromise possible between..everything and nothing...

The purpose of time is essentially
a device by which all..compromise in this respect can be abolished.

It seems to be abolished by degrees precisely..because time itself involves a concept of intervals which does not really exist.

as for..the rest..of it..
here is the rest..of the final..[so-far]..
maybe..final..point..?

if its not..If you believe...
that all of..the Souls..that God created..ARE His Son,..and

if you also..believe..that..you..
and..his Sunship..*is One,..*then every Soul..
*MUST be..a Sun/of the light..a child..of God[love/under grace/mercy..etc

,..or..an..integral part*..
of the full story..

of his Sonship...as revealed..by the christ himself

we are enjoined..living-MORTAL-HEIRS..
of all..of our immortal/eternal fathers estates

CUSTODIAN-ship*
ward-ship

that ye..do to..the least..we do..to the most.

You do not..find..the concept..that the whole..
is greater than its parts..too..difficult..to understand.>?

You should..therefore not have..too great difficulty..with this.

The/Son-ship in its Oneness..
DOES transcend..the sum of its parts...However,
it loses this special-state..as long as..*any of its parts are missing.

This is why..the conflict cannot..ultimately be
resolved..UNTIL..the sum/all..of the individual parts..
of the Sonship have returned...*Only then,..in the/true sense,
[spirit-of/the word.. can..the meaning of..wholeness..be understood.

[atonement[at_one_meant]

The concept of..minus numbers
has always been..regarded..as a mathematical..rather/than an actual expedient...(This is a major limitation..on mathematics..as presently
understood.).

Any statement which..implies degrees..of difference
*in negation..is essentially..meaningless...
[where..is your..debt..paid-in-full?]

What..can replace..this negative
approach..*is a recognition..of the fact that..

as..long..as one part..(which is the same as...a million or ten or eight millions..of thousand parts)..of the..Sonship is missing,..

*!*>..it is..NOT complete./*!*\

In the..Divine psyche,..the Father.and the Holy Spirit
are not incomplete at all. The..Sonship has..*the unique faculty..of believing in error,..or incompleteness,

\*!*/..if he so selects...\*!*/

http://miraclevision.com/acim/urtext/acim-urtext-2003-upe-ready-edition.pdf

read..it..
he will know..
look at each word..as if..a whole sentence..in mimd pictures

sentience..the..christ..is listening..

now what?

page/65

well what you..think
we even..redefined death

http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?article=15557&page=0

tell..peter..this xmass better be..re jesus NOT..dying
but not being dead..indeed lives live time..speaking from the heart

we also busted open some more seals
like the money changers

hi/peter..today..my-guides are declaring war on..mistranslation
http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=6073&page=0

Line-by-line..RE_editing.;.[of ALL*..holy texts]

There..is,..as mentioned,..copious..line-by-line editing.
The sheer volume..of it takes..one aback,..as we are..accustomed to thinking/of the words..of the Course..as straight from Jesus.

The following/example..will give you a sense/of
the line-by-line editing..I suggest you read it..in two ways.

First,..read down..each column.
http://www.circleofa.org/library/acim-history-issues/copyright/earlier-versions/

Then,..read across-reading..each line
as it evolves..through..the different versions.

Urtext#...Hugh Lynn Cayce/...Standard Course*

You..now share..my inability#..As you share..
*my inability/..As you share..my unwillingness

to..tolerate..the lack/of love#../..to tolerate lack of love
*to..accept error

in yourself..and..in.everyone else,#..
/in..yourself and..others,...*in..yourself...and others,

and must/join#/you must/join..*you..must/join

the/Great-Crusade..to correct it.#
the/Great/Crusade.to correct it.
*the/great*crusade..to correct it;

The..slogan/for this..Crusade..is."Listen,..Learn,.and Do."#
/The.slogan/for..the Crusade..is.."Listen,.learn,..and do;"—
*..This..means Listen..to My-Voice..Listen..to my-voice,..listen..to my voice,

#..Learn to..*undo..the error,#,../learn..to undo..error//*learn..to undo error..

#and..do something..to..correct it./and..do.something..to.correct it..29..*and..act..to correct it..(T-1.III.1:6)

#The..first..two..are not enough...
/The..real members..of my party...are active workers..28

This brief example..contains..almost all..of
the important..characteristics..of..the line-by-line..editing:

Lots..of editing...The..sheer/volume..of changes..is striking.
Out of..68 words,.45..*words have..been changed..(removed,/replaced, added,/or...de-emphasized).

Faithful...?The editors..have clearly..tried very hard..to be faithful.to the meaning of the original...It is..difficult..to detect a.significant/change..in meaning.

Slight/alterations..in meaning?..While there..are..no significant changes..in the..superficial-meaning*..of our passage,..there are some..slight..alterations...[of emphasis]

In..the standard/version,..you join..the great crusade..
because..you have..become unwilling..to accept/error..(or..lack..of love/or..over/fearing..anything]).

In..the original/version,..however,..both..your joining..the Great Crusade..and*..your unwillingness..to accept..lack of love..come from the fact..that/you have.."been restored..to..your original state"..where..*all fear..is illusion..

(from..the line..preceding..our/passage)...

That's..a very minor..alteration...Slightly more significant..is the downplaying of behavior..in the editing..of..the final lines...This is a consistent/pattern..in the editing..which I will discuss below.

Less lively,..more tame.[erantly/safe]

After editing,..the material..is generally..less lively and spirited. In the original,..you become unable..to tolerate..the..lack of..fearless-love...In the standard version,..however,..you become merely unwilling*..to accept error.

There is..an insistent,..emphatic note..in the original
that is..consistently softened..by the editing...This makes the Course sound..more remote,..more tame.

Set..next to..the original,..it feels sanitized.

Less specific...The removal.of..specifics..takes place on a line-by-line basis...You can see..that here...The Crusade no longer has a "slogan,".and there is no longer..a "party"..with "workers."

The familiar..cultural image..of a political party..on a crusade,
with busy workers..chanting their slogan,..has been taken out.

More vague.. Although..the meaning.of our passage h..as not been changed,..it is somewhat less apparent...For instance,..we now may wonder what.."act to correct"..error means.

Does this mean..physical action?
The original,..however.. leaves no doubt:

"do something..to correct it….

im..against..post limits..[2peter2]
but..have found..the easy/solution[open..the archives..immediately]

[from..the..new/link]
http://www.circleofa.org/library/acim-history-issues/copyright/earlier-versions/

Part of..the need..for the Second-Edition,..as we saw earlier,
was that..a kind of..telephone game...[pass/the mess-age]..had occurred..with the retypings of the Text.

There were four re-typings,..two of which..were not proofread
and two of which..were not adequately proofread...

This meant..that errors..(typographical/errors..and inadvertent omissions..of material),..rather..than being corrected,..simply accumulated..with each..new retyping.

Hence,..for the Second Edition,..proofreaders went..back to the beginning..to catch all the errors:.."The three books of the First Edition..of A Course in Miracles..were proofread..against the urtext that Bill..had originally typed..from Helen's notes."48

What..I have not yet mentioned..is that a similar telephone-game occurred..with the editing of the Course...A close comparison of the different versions..reveals that each version..was edited only by consulting..*the most recent version,..a fact that Ken Wapnick has confirmed.49

This means..that the second draft..was edited only by consulting the Urtext,..not the shorthand notebooks...The HLC was edited..only by consulting the second draft,..not the Urtext..or the shorthand notebooks.

WHAT..IM..GETTING AT HERE..is this has occurred..globally
but peter..has acces to_all..the drafts..ALL WE GIVEN>>TO ALL..OF US..not just..the pope[s]

The.standard Course..was edited..only by consulting the HLC,..not the second draft,.the Urtext,..or..the shorthand notebooks...

If you look at..the "Great Crusade".,.passage
above,..you can see this.
http://www.circleofa.org/library/acim-history-issues/copyright/earlier-versions/

Notice..how,..once..material drops out,..it stays out;
it..is not..ever..put back in.[lost]

Notice..how,..once even..the most minor changes..*are made,
they are not..allowed..be undone;..they either remain,,errant/or are changed..further.

And..what you see..in this one..passage
is true..all the way through...ALL..HOLY_TEXTS

So..there was...a kind of..academic/telephone game,..which in this case means..that imperfect editing decisions,..rather than being corrected,..simply compounded..as the chain..with/the past..grew longer...[and lost context]

Therefore,..just as..someone went back to..the beginning to catch all the typos..for the Second-Edition,.so someone*..needs to..go back to the beginning..(in this case,..to the shorthand/notebooks)..and re-examine..*all the..editing decisions.

This new edit..should receive..the care befitting..the scriptural status/the Course has..acquired for..so many thousands..of seekers,

DONE>>..BY& MANY WILLING WORKERS>>NOW*
[live..on web]..this day.

*the kind of care..you would..associate,,with..a new translation..of the Bible...[dont..start/me..on.that-one][CONTEXT*}

At..the very least,..there
should be..an authorized version..of the shorthand notebooks,..the Urtext,..and the HLC.[plus..marbaker/luther/swedeenberg.moramn..wesly..etc etc

This..would guarantee*..that we have..complete and accurate versions of..the Urtext..and HLC,[bible/koran/torah/ichin..etc etc

and..would also make..the shorthand notebooks..*publicly available...ON_LINE..all the time*..[as written]..like saved-texts..deserve to be..KNOWN*.

post-script
[i..see the..3 popes..going to..george..[xmas/morning]
..to form..the commonwealth..of spirit..elders of god council]
