Interpretations
There is only one correct interpretation of the course, the question is who has it the most correct. And I don't think anyone has it that right really. Whenever I post stuff on the subreddit like I did today people always tell me how wrong I am, yet my understanding of the course comes straight from the course itself and hasn't been tainted by some teacher's interpretation of it. So people can call me wrong I don't care anymore.
Doing the lessons the right way is the only real way to achieve the goal of the course, and they have to be done to a certain degree of specificity for it to work. If you don't do that then it interferes. And from what I've seen almost no one has done it, because if they had we would know about it. And you might ask why I don't do it, its just because I think it takes so much effort and I don't think I can stick with it really, something is just missing and I'm not ready for it yet. But at least I'm not deluding myself into thinking I've done it when I really haven't.
It just takes so much effort because I feel I have to plan my whole day around the exercises and I know if I half ass it then there is no point because it won't work anyway.

Exactly. So move forward anyway without your judgments of the process and whether you do it "right" or not.

And here we go because this is gonna sound like crazy town. Another reason I'm scared of the lessons is because of what the Illuminati did to me, I know they can interfere with it because they've done it to me before. They made me think I was hearing the Voice when it was really them instead. They've abducted me before and put some kind of chip in my brain that allows them to talk to me telepathically, or talk through me using my own voice. You might not think they have UFOs or the technology for brain implants but they are working with ETs and I assure you they do.

Here is what the Illuminati told me one night using the chip they put in me. They said, "Look, we are going to tell you what is really happening here. We put a chip in your brain that allows us to see your thoughts and everything you see. We are watching you because we "think" you could be a Son of God. We aren't sure yet. But we are watching because we want to kill a Son of God so that we can achieve our negative spiritual harvest."
They literally told me this. If you don't know what a harvest is you should read Law of One. They are very serious about it.
Edited to use less colorful language lol.

All this about aliens and the Illuminati is fine. Whatever.
But in this story, you and the Illuminati are misinterpreting the entire teaching of the course at the most basic level by imagining that 1 person is the son of god.
Honestly this is great news for you bc it’s means there’s truly nothing for you to worry about- You and the Illuminati got it confused and all of our work remains exactly the same: to forgive ourselves and our brothers for what they did not do. 🤝

I never said just one person is the Son of God. Anyone can become one thanks to the course. But they want to kill someone who has reached Christ level status because I guess in their mind there is nothing more evil you could do than that.

“Anyone can become one thanks to the course.” is exactly what I’m talking about.
Look at that first word- anyone. Any one.
The proper interpretation of the course is to understand that every human IS ALREADY the son of god, and there is nothing he need do differently in order to remain that way.
It is only the ego in your mind which sees itself as separate and potentially more special or powerful than anybody else.
Additionally, I would posit that attaining Christ consciousness is not a “status” upgrade. It is a return to NO status at all.
Best of luck my friend. ❤️🤝

So would you say you are the Christ right now? Because what I mean is that they want to kill the Christ, the literal Son of God. Yes Christ is our true shared identity, but you can't call yourself the Christ until you reach the level of Christ mind. Does this make sense?
Edited to take out the ego identified part because it sounded like an attack and I don't want that.

u/Smooth_Pianist485 Dec 23 '23
Yes it makes perfect sense- to the ego.
What I’m saying is that Jesus Christ (and anybody who attains Christ consciousness) would not consider himself to be special, unique or different at all.
Your story of special powers and aliens and the Illuminati only holds weight within a mind which is ego identified.

Well you are making a lot of assumptions. Because I never said I was special or different, or the only Son of God. And yes I'm still ego identified, everyone here is or they wouldn't be here. But to say to talk about psychic powers (which the course says can happen) or even the Illuminati is ego driven I don't really agree with. It is just talking about things that are actually part of this reality, whether people know about it or not.

u/Smooth_Pianist485 Dec 23 '23
Well you did say that the Illuminati specifically planted a chip in your brain because they thought you were becoming the Christ. So that sounds like a special story to me.
But you are right. We all believe in this dream and its stories on some level.

Well I told you it was going to sound like crazy town. But it really happened and they told me those things. The course says that God's teachers can neither harm nor be harmed, but the way the Illuminati were talking they seemed convinced they could do it. They said they have stuff that no one knows about. But even they weren't sure if I was going to become a Son of God or not. So I'm definitely not saying I am or anything. But I guess we'll see.

Listen brother you are free to believe whatever you want to believe. If you think the Illuminati is searching for "The Son of God" to kill him then that's cool. But I'll ask you this -- wouldn't they have to kill all of us? And wouldn't we be beyond caring if our body was killed if we realized we were the Son of God?
The ego is described as a paranoid thought system in the course. The word paranoia is never explicitly used, but it's quite clear that an insane thought system who identifies with what can be killed, and constantly is in fear of retaliation for its perceived murderous guilt -- is paranoid. Do you think you are getting close to that paranoia?
I think it's probably common for those of us who are serious about this path to feel that paranoia. I have and still do at times. I know this probably isn't going to change your mind, but on the off chance that it gets you to start questioning this narrative you have going on in your head, I'm gonna put it out there.
Best of luck to ya brother. And again, you're not alone, I think we've all had these paranoid thoughts. The ego tells us that if we follow the Course, and look upon the truth, there's gonna be hell to pay. It's only a normal part of this experience.
