[Michael Vancleemput]

MICHAEL VAN CLEEMPUT IS NOT A TEACHER OF ACIL. HE HAS NOT RECEIVED ORDINATION TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR STUDENTS.

HIS WRITING IS A REPRESENTATIVE PORTION FROM HIS PERSONAL JOURNAL, WHICH HE HAS EDITED IN ORDER TO SHARE IT. THIS SERIES OF SUPPLEMENTAL WRITING BY HIM IS INTENDED FOR INSPIRATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. HIS IS A BEGINNING STUDENT LIKE MANY, AND HE IS JUST FINISHING THE PRELIMINARY LEVELS.

HE FEELS GREAT EMPATHY FOR THOSE WHO ARE AT THE VERY FIRST STEPS. HE WANTS TO TELL THAT THE STUDENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OPENNING HIS/HER OWN MIND. ONCE THE MIND IS RECEPTIVE, THE LIGHT ITSELF WILL FLOW INTO IT. THIS IS DIVINE LIGHT, AND IT IS NOT HARMFUL.

A COURSE IN LIGHT IS A PATH TO SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT. IT IS STRUCTURED FOR BEGINNING AND ADVANCED STUDENTS ALIKE. FOLLOW THE ACIL MEDITATION SUGGESTIONS. THIS STRUCTURED PATH IS EASY TO FOLLOW. THERE IS NO RELIGIOUS VIEWPOINT PREREQUISITE TO RECEIVE THE LIGHT.

ALL YOGA PATHS TO ENLIGHTENMENT HAVE ONE THING IN COMMON: EFFORT.

IN—A COURSE IN LIGHT:
1. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE EFFORT ARE CLEAR.
2. THE DISCIPLINE IS EASY TO MASTER.
3. RESULTS WILL COME ACCORDING TO OPEN MINDEDNESS.
4. UNDERSTANDING INNER SELF IS THE TASK.
5. IN ACIL INNER GUIDANCE IS OUR TEACHER,WE LEARN AS WE TEACH.
6. ENLIGHTENMENT IS ORDINARY.
7. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING ARE DIFFERENT: ACIL IS A PATH.
ACIL IS INTENDED FOR EACH SOUL TO REACH ENLIGHTENMENT. BEING A GOOD TEACHER IS NOT DIFFERENT FROM BEING A GOOD STUDENT. IT IS ONLY PERCEIVED DIFFERENTLY. BE A GOOD STUDENT.
IN THE PRELIMINARY LEVELS AZREAL SAYS, ‘DO NOT COMPARE.’
WE LEARN:
1. IF WE COMPARE, WE ARE OUTSIDE OF THE LIGHT.
2. IF WE COMPARE, WE ARE QUESTIONING.
3. IF WE COMPARE, THE SEPARATION CREATES FEAR.
4. IF WE COMPARE, THE EGO IS ACTIVE ON ITS OWN.
5. IF WE COMPARE, WE ARE NOT LEADING BUT FOLLOWING THE EGO.
6. IF WE COMPARE, OTHERS MAY FEEL INFERIOR AND NOT HEALED.
7. IF WE COMPARE, WE ARE WANDERERS.
DO NOT COMPARE.

IF WE HAVE PERSONAL DESIRES, THAT IS GOOD. WHEN THE EGO IS JUMPING WITH EXCITEMENT, IT IS NOT HIDDEN. IT IS EASY TO RELEASE THE EGO TO THE LIGHT. THIS IS THE WORK TO BE ACC0MPLISHED; LEARN TO RELEASE SMOOTHLY.

THE EGO MUST COME TO THE FOREBRAIN TO WORK IN UNITY.

PRELIMINARY LEVELS DEVELOP INNER DISCIPLINE OF THE EGO AND TRANSMUTE THE EGO INTO THE “EGO OF DEVOTION.” WHEN WE HAVE A HEALTHY EGO OF DEVOTION, WE CAN PROCEED SMOOTHLY TO THE PLANETARY LEVELS.

IT IS AN ISSUE OF CONCENTRATION. THE EGO IN CONCERT WITH OUR HIGHER SELF HELPS TO KEEP UP THE FOCUS. WE HAVE MORE SUCCESS WITHOUT FIGHTING TO MAINTAIN OUR CONCENTRATION.

IT IS THE EGO THAT WANTS TO JUMP AND RUN, UNTIL IT ATTAINS TO ITS DEVOTIONAL NATURE. ONCE THE EGO TASTES THE WONDERFUL QUIET RESTFULNESS IN DEVOTION, IT AUTOMATICALLY IS ATTRACTED TO THAT STATE. IT IS AS IF THE EGO FINDS A TRUE HOME. THE EGO WILL TAKE GREAT DELIGHT IN COMING TO THE FOREBRAIN.

THE PRELIMINARY LEVELS ARE DESIGNED TO DEVELOP THE DISCIPLINE TO ACHIEVE THIS CONCENTRATION AND COOPERATION; TO ACHIEVE THIS QUIET RESTFULNESS. THIS IS PRELIMINARY TO PLANETARY LIGHTWORK.

THE DIVINE NATURE IS POTENTIALLY WITHIN US. WE NEED NOT EXAGGERATE THE SPIRITUAL LIFE TO ATTAIN OUR DIVINE SELF. WE CAN BE ORDINARY AND HAVE THE GOAL AT THIS MOMENT. WE CAN BE SIMPLE, TOO. AT THE SAME TIME, WE CAN WORK, PLAY WITH OUR CHILDREN, GO SHOPPING FOR CLOTHES, WATCH TV AND BE NORMAL. ACIL WILL NOT INTRUDE ON OUR LIVES. IT IS A PURE YOGA.


BEHIND THE PATTERN OF THOUGHT IS SPIRIT. FIND THE SPIRIT.

[Michael Vancleemput]

他不是光的課程的教師。不曾被任命帶領學生的職責。

他所寫的是他個人日誌的一部份，為了與大家分享而編輯的。他所寫的這一系列補充資料只是一些靈性的感言。他認為自己像許多人一樣，是一個初學者，他才修完初級課程。（譯注，MICHAEL修完行星之後，為支持了中文網站所展開的網路共修，他回頭再次從初級系列開始習修，這裏所說的才修完初級課程，指的是一路修完行星課程之後，第N次修完初級課程）
他很能理解剛開始踏上習修的第一步的人。他要說的是，每個學生要負責打開自己的心識。一旦心靈能接納時，光本身便會流入其中。這是神聖之光，是無害的。
「光的課程」是一條通往明心見性的途徑。它的整個架構既是給初學者，也是給先進的人。遵循靜心冥想的次第。它的架構是容易遵循的。任何人都可以接收光，其中沒有宗教認同的要求。
所有通往明心見性的瑜珈，都有一個共通處，那就是：努力；用功。
在光的課程中：
1．清楚地指出如何用功
2．它的練習容易掌握。
3．習修的效果依心靈開放的程度而展現。
4．瞭解內在自我是它的任務。
5．在「光的課程」中，內在指引是我們的導師，我們在教學中成長。
6．明心見性是平常事。
7．知識不等同於領悟：「光的課程」是一條途徑。
「光的課程」的目的是讓每一個靈魂達到明心見性。做一個好老師跟做一個好學生之間只是感受不同。做一個好學生。
在初級課程中，愛瑟瑞爾說：不要比較。
我們學會：
1．如果我們比較，我們便不在光中。
2．如果我們比較，我們便有所疑惑。
3．如果我們比較，分裂便會引發恐懼。
4．如果我們比較，自我便自行活動。
5．如果我們比較，我們便不是掌握自我，而是被自我所掌握。
6．如果我們比較，別人會感到自卑而不是治癒。
7．如果我們比較，我們便在迷失中。
不要比較。
如果我們有人的欲望，那是好的。當「自我」在騷動中跳躍時，它不再是隱藏的。我們很容易將這「自我」釋放到光中。這是我們需要完成的工作；學習平穩地釋放。

「自我」必需來到前額以便在融合中運作。


初級課程訓練「自我」發展紀律，使「自我」成為虔誠的「自我」。當我們有了健康虔誠的「自我」，我們便能平穩地進入行星課程。

這是一個專注的問題。當自我專注于較高自我時，便有助於我們集中焦點。當我們不與自己的專注力戰鬥，我們便容易成功地做到專注。

一個人在具有虔誠的本性之前，「自我」總是不停地跳躍著，極力想要逃跑。然而，一旦「自我」領略到虔誠的寧靜美妙時，它自然地受那境界所吸引。仿佛「自我」找到了真正的家。這時「自我」便會在巨大的喜悅中來到前額。

初級課程是為發展紀律以達到專注力與協作；達到這種寧靜而設計的。這是進入行星運作初步的準備。


神聖本質潛藏在我們之內。我們不需要誇大靈性生活來實現神聖自我。在這時刻，我們可以在平凡中達到這一目標。我們也可以是簡單的。與此同時，我們可以工作，與我們的孩子玩耍，購買衣物，看電視，過正常的生活。「光的課程」並不侵犯我們的生活。它是一種純瑜伽。

在思想模式之後的是靈性。找出那靈性。
