“The Holy Spirit is nothing more than your own right mind.” -A Course in Miracles, Authentic Original Manuscripts
The Holy Spirit is the bridge between the Self and God. It is the Voice for God within our minds, the voice of reason. God placed this voice within our minds so that we would hear the call to Love and awaken. This voice will answer us whenever we ask to seek the truth. The truth is found within, and the Holy Spirit is the voice within that speaks on behalf of Truth.
The Holy Spirit is often referred to as our Higher Self, Divine Mind, Voice for Love, Voice for God, Voice of Reason, Voice of Truth, Insight, Intuition and others. The name in which we use does not matter. When we allow ourselves to become silent and still, we are able to hear this strong, calm, quiet voice of reason; and as we become more aware of it, this loving voice teaches us to better understand ourselves, each other and this world.
With complete openness we bring all of our thoughts both good and bad, to the Holy Spirit for re-interpretation and clarification. It is from here that we are guided to understand life as it truly IS, and not how we think it is. We are reminded that we are perfect souls, happy, whole and free to experience absolute joy and creativity in this world. As we experience the lifting of the veils of illusion, we start to see that this world has been made by our separate mind of ego. God created us as united Souls, not egos. Therefore, as we accept ourselves as God created us to be, we can bring forward an entirely new reality. All of this the message of the Holy Spirit brings.
Thus we must turn to Holy Spirit within, as we have forgotten our home, who we are, where we came from or what our purpose here is; And it is the Holy Spirits only function to remind us of these things. We must be reminded of the truth from within us, as the truth will never be found outside us. It is this mind of Spirit that is in communication with God, it is this mind that gives us our true thoughts and reminds us we can awaken from these dreams of darkness, scarcity, anxieties, lack and even death. This is why listening to and following this voice requires faith, because it offers so much of what our physical eyes cannot see. Its reality however, proves itself through the little faith we do give.
Holy Spirit guides us to our eternal happiness, and once found within we cant help but share it through our voice, but also through our many talents, skills, ideas, and many gifts we have to give the world. Thank You God for this joining link that reminds us that our home, creativity and happiness is in You!
“The Holy Spirit is in the part of the mind that lies between the ego and the spirit, mediating between them always in favour of the spirit.”

“Obey the Holy Spirit and you WILL be giving up the ego. But you will be sacrificing NOTHING. On the contrary, you will be gaining EVERYTHING. If you believed this, there would BE no conflict.”
