Thy Will be done

How to live on a Spiritual Path, yet in this world.

"Thy will be done on earth,
as it is in heaven"

This is a profound statement from Jesus.

It is not a request to a greater power, but
a statement of knowing that you are One with the Absolute.

God's will is absolute, as it applies to the All. Duality denies this and says "I know better." The idea that we are separate and that we exist in isolation from the Absolute --This idea (Ego) wants to have it's way --i.e. to follow it's will.

To realize that there is no other will but the Absolute's is freedom. Then you begin to see that the Ego's "freedom" was really slavery, and that you are not the Ego, as now you can watch it acting out in it's world.

The Holy Spirit's reinterpretations as described in ACIM help to re-learn a new way of interpreting one's experience, so that anything that happens points you back to the Absolute rather than to the Ego.
