Where this sits in the contact
The last sessions
Closing questions, the veil of a life ending, the farewell. Read 106 out loud once. Then close the book and bless the room.
Comes after session 104 (harmony). Opens into session 106 (farewell).
In plain words
In this sitting
- Karma, the instrument, the Earth: what is unpaid is unused catalyst, not a curse.
- The Course’s Atonement: the unpaid is already corrected in truth. You accept it by using the next hour.
- Personal history is not more true than the Law. It is the Law applied to a name.
How this sitting is misread
A karma story that never ends because it is more interesting than forgiveness.
Deeper meaning
Ra on the group-center (yellow) vehicle as part of the experiment: denser, more convincing, more able to hurt and to pleasure, so that a mind would have something to prefer and to release. You are not a body. You are not free to abuse one. The Course holds both sentences. This session is their Confederation gloss, spoken while an instrument’s body was failing in the work of speaking it.
Practice
Thank the body without asking it who you are. Feed it. Let it rest. Then do a lesson.
The body under the veil — perhaps the most moving later session. The body became a more complete illusion so that the Choice would bite. Compassion for incarnation follows.
Course
Lessons 199–220, 226. I am not a body. I am free. The body is a means.
Open streamSpalding
Neglect is not metaphysics. Care is not identity. Both.

If you only remember one late session, remember that she paid, and that they still called the body good enough to love.
