私はスピリットです。
I am spirit.
今日の新しい見方はあなたをあなたの一なる「自己」
Today's idea identifies you with your one Self.
それはいかなる分裂した(
It accepts no split identity, nor tries to weave opposing factors into unity.
ただ単純に真実を述べているだけです。
It simply states the truth.
今日は、この真実をできるだけ頻繁に練習してください。というのは、
Practice this truth today as often as you can, for it will bring your mind from conflict to the quiet fields of peace.
ぞっと寒気を催すような怖れは入ることはできません。というのは、あなたの心は(自我に基づく見方の)狂気を免れ、
No chill of fear can enter, for your mind has been absolved from madness, letting go illusions of a split identity.
私たちは再び、あなたの「自己」についての真実を語ります。あなたの「自己」とは、
We state again the truth about your Self, the holy Son of God Who rests in you; whose mind has been restored to sanity.
あなたは「父の愛」と安らぎと喜びのすべてを、
You are the spirit lovingly endowed with all your Father's Love and peace and joy.
あなたは「父自身」を完全にするスピリットであり、「創造主」
You are the spirit which completes Himself, and shares His function as Creator.
「父」は常にあなたと一緒に在り、あなたは常に「父」
He is with you always, as you are with Him.
今日、
Today we try to bring reality still closer to your mind.
あなたが練習をするたびに、自覚は少なくとも少しは近づきます。
時には、千年またはそれ以上の年月が節約されます。
Each time you practice, awareness is brought a little nearer at least; sometimes a thousand years or more are saved.
あなたが与える数分間は何度も何度も倍増されます。というのは、奇跡は時間を利用するからです。しかし、奇跡は時間によって支配されることはありません。
The minutes which you give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle makes use of time, but is not ruled by it.
救いは奇跡です。最初の奇跡であり、最後の奇跡です。最後の奇跡であり、最初の奇跡です。
なぜなら、救いはひとつだからです。
Salvation is a miracle, the first and last; the first that is the last, for it is one.
あなたはスピリットであり、
You are the spirit in whose mind abides the miracle in which all time stands still; the miracle in which a minute spent in using these ideas becomes a time that has no limit and that has no end.
そのため、喜んで時間を与えてください。
そして、その時間の傍らに無時間性を横たえると約束した「聖霊」
Give, then, these minutes willingly, and count on Him Who promised to lay timelessness beside them.
「聖霊」は「彼」の強さのすべてを、
He will offer all His strength to every little effort that you make.
「聖霊」があなたは「彼」
Give Him the minutes which He needs today, to help you understand with Him you are the spirit that abides in Him, and that calls through His Voice to every living thing; offers His sight to everyone who asks; replaces error with the simple truth.
「聖霊」は喜んで毎時間5分間をあなたの手から取り、
The Holy Spirit will be glad to take five minutes of each hour from your hands, and carry them around this aching world where pain and misery appear to rule.
これらの数分間がもたらす癒しの贈り物を受け容れる気持ちのある
He will not overlook one open mind that will accept the healing gifts they bring, and He will lay them everywhere He knows they will be welcome.
そして、これらの癒しの贈り物は、
And they will increase in healing power each time someone accepts them as his thoughts, and uses them to heal.
このようにして、「聖霊」への贈り物の一つ一つは千倍にも、
Thus will each gift to Him be multiplied a thousandfold and tens of thousands more.
そして、この贈り物があなたのところに戻ってくるとき、
And when it is returned to you, it will surpass in might the little gift you gave as much as does the radiance of the sun outshine the tiny gleam a firefly makes an uncertain moment and goes out.
この光の一定した輝きは消えることがなく、
また、あなたがその道を再び忘れることもないでしょう。
The steady brilliance of this light remains and leads you out of darkness, nor will you be able to forget the way again.
これらの楽しい練習を「聖霊」
そして、これらの言葉を「聖霊」
Begin these happy exercises with the words the Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them echo round the world through Him:
私はスピリットであり、「神の神聖な子」です。
私は安全であり、
私は自由にゆるすことができ、
Spirit am I, a holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and
healed and whole, free to forgive, and free to save the world.
あなたを通して表現される「聖霊」はあなたが「彼」
Expressed through you, the Holy Spirit will accept this gift that you received of Him, increase its power and give it back to you.
今日、それぞれの練習時間を喜んで「聖霊」
Offer each practice period today gladly to Him.

And He will speak to you, reminding you that you are spirit, one with Him and God, your brothers and your Self.
「聖霊」が今日あなたに差し出す言葉を語るたびに、「聖霊」
Listen for His assurance every time you speak the words He offers you today, and let Him tell your mind that they are true.
それらの言葉を(自我の考えや思いに自分を投影しようとする)
Use them against temptation, and escape its sorry consequences if you yield to the belief that you are something else.
今日、「聖霊」はあなたに安らぎを与えてくれます。
The Holy Spirit gives you peace today.
「聖霊」の言葉を受け取り、それらを「聖霊」
Receive His words, and offer them to Him.
