The star of wonder shines within the forgiving mind, illuminating our awareness in acceptance of the Word of God. The star is the symbol that Christ has come, forgiveness is complete and time has reached its appointed ending.
This Christmas season we celebrate by offering our acceptance of the only gift Christ can receive of us. The gift of miracles and our redemption in the holy perception of his present reality.
“The holy instant is the miracle’s abiding place. From there, each one is born into this world as witness to a state of mind that has transcended conflict, and has reached to peace.
There is no sadness where a miracle has come to heal. And nothing more than just one instant of your love without attack is necessary that all this occur. In that one instant you are healed, and in that single instant is all healing done. What stands apart from you, when you accept the blessing that the holy instant brings? Be not afraid of blessing, for the One Who blesses you loves all the world, and leaves nothing within the world that could be feared.”

The Illuminate Mind Foundation aims to be a vital resource for the enlightenment of mind through the extraordinary gift to all mankind that is A Course in Miracles. It is a continuing forum for the joyful re-discovery that you are now and have always been a complete, continuous and whole part of all the Love, Light and Joy of Eternal Life.
“The way to God is through forgiveness here. There is no other way… God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him at last.”
The divine mind-science of A Course in Miracles presents a curriculum for the complete transformation of identity, through ‘true forgiveness’, to the discovery of perfection and holiness as the original nature of mind in God. This enlightened self-realization we recognize as the singular eternal solution to the existential problem of false separation from God and the condition of suffering inherent in the world.
“Forgiveness sweeps away distortions, and opens the hidden altar to the truth. Its lilies shine into the mind, and call it to return and look within, to find what it has vainly sought without. For here, and only here, is peace of mind restored, for this the dwelling place of God Himself.”

Now is the time!- This is an invitation to join in the adventure of awakening, to step into the great transition to Truth, to take the “journey without distance” from the limited, fearful condition of the human ego-identity, to the freedom of recognizing the eternal Self as perfect, healed and whole in the transcendental light of Christ; the illuminate mind “that knows its Source, its Self, its Holiness.“
“You are as God created you. There is nothing else to learn, nothing else to know, and nothing else that has any value. For in this one idea is everyone set free along with you.”
