Where this sits in the contact

Healing, death, remaining

Healing as realization. Time/space as the review. Stay in the body until the body is done. The hurry is ego.

Comes after session 70 (wanderers). Opens into session 72 (white magic).

In plain words

White magic as the ritual of love: will, faith, the role of the adept, dedicated to the One. Not a store of techniques. Not a way to control others.

In this sitting

  1. Sixth density: love and wisdom as one. Ra’s density. The higher self lives here.
  2. Negative polarity cannot continue through sixth. It must reverse or stop.
  3. Unity is not sameness. It is the end of the need to win.

How this sitting is misread

Skipping love to get to unity-talk.

Deeper meaning

The magical personality is a constructed self of service, worn in indigo, then taken off so personal/one-to-one (orange) life can resume without a god-complex. Ritual gathers will. Faith is the resting as if the One already has it. Form may rearrange. Kindness the same day, or the sitting failed. The Course’s rules for decision are white magic in prose.

Practice

One short working: dedicate, ask only for service, sit, give thanks, go be ordinary.

The adept's work: will, faith, the light body. ACIM's rules for decision are safer for most than adept lore. Take the will and faith; leave the pose.

Course

T-30 rules for decision. Lesson 189. Will as God’s, not as a private engine.

Spalding

If you cannot take that role off, you were not doing magic. You were doing pose.

Rueckert

She became an instrument, then Carla again. The off switch is the ethics.
