Lesson 69
My grievances hide the light of the world in me. Share your salvation now with your brother who stood beside you when you were in hell. We are literally attempting to get in touch with the salvation of the world. Salvation is our only need. There is no other purpose here, and no other function to fulfill. Learning salvation is our only goal. Let us end the ancient search today by finding the light in us, and holding it up for everyone who searches with us to look upon and rejoice.

" from where you stand you can see nor reason to believe there is a brilliant light hidden by the clouds."
Clouds, body, the world of form and time is what is blinding us.
"Nothing is so blinding as perception of form." (T-22. III.6:7)
".. try to settle down in perfect stillness remmebering only how much you want to reach the light in you today, -- NOW!. Determine to go past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in your mind."
This is another reminder that clouds are not external. They are our attack thoughts, guilt grievances, projected outward. We again encouraged to choose happiness, which can only be attained through choosing to be lead trhought the clouds of guilt to the light of truth.
Sooner or later we start recognizing that the ego's strategy does not work and your desire for the cessation of our pain and despair becomes our motivation for choosing light.
"Tolerance for pain may be high, but it is not without limit. Eventually everyone begins to recognize, however dimly, that there must be a better way." (T-2.III.3:5)
(Lesson 69, K. Wapnick's comments to the workbook).
