T-2.V.A Special Principles of Miracle Workers
A. Special Principles of Miracle Workers
11. (1) The miracle abolishes the need for lower-order concerns.
²Since it is an out-of-pattern time interval, the ordinary considerations of
time and space do not apply.
³When you perform a miracle, I will arrange both time and space to adjust to
it.

Simplified
Miracles change your relationship to time and space.
I will help you to adjust.
12. (2) A clear distinction between what is created and what is made is essential.
²All forms of healing rest on this fundamental correction in level perception.
Simplified
Healing depends on you distinguishing between what is created and what is made.
13. (3) Never confuse right- and wrong-mindedness.
²Responding to any form of error with anything except a desire to heal is an expression of this confusion.
Simplified
Right mind responds to error with a desire to heal.
14. (4) The miracle is always a denial of this error and an affirmation of the truth.
²Only right-mindedness can correct in a way that has any real effect.
³Pragmatically, what has no real effect has no real existence.
⁴Its effect, then, is emptiness.
⁵Being without substantial content, it lends itself to projection.

It is wrong minded not to want to heal wrong-mindedness.
Wrong-mindedness can have no real effect.
Wrong-mindedness causes projection.
Right-mindedness heals and corrects.
15. (5) The level-adjustment power of the miracle induces the right perception for healing.
²Until this has occurred healing cannot be understood.
³Forgiveness is an empty gesture unless it entails correction.
⁴Without this it is essentially judgmental, rather than healing.
Expanded
The level-adjustment power of the miracle induces the right perception for healing.
Until this [level-adjustment, right perception] has occurred healing cannot be understood.
Forgiveness is an empty gesture unless it [forgiveness] entails correction.
Without this [correction] it [forgiveness] is essentially judgmental, rather than healing.
Substituted

Without correction, forgiveness is essentially judgmental, rather than healing.
Simplified
Right-mindedness forgives with correction and healing.
Forgiving without correction is judgmental.
16. (6) Miracle-minded forgiveness is correction.
²It has no element of judgment at all.
³The statement “Father forgive them for they know not what they do” in no way evaluates what they do.
⁴It is an appeal to God to heal their minds.
⁵There is no reference to the outcome of the error.
⁶That does not matter.

17. (7) The injunction “Be of one mind” is the statement for revelation-readiness.
²My request “Do this in remembrance of me” is the appeal for cooperation from miracle workers.
³The two statements are not in the same order of reality.
⁴Only the latter involves an awareness of time, since to remember is to recall the past in the present.
⁵Time is under my direction, but timelessness belongs to God.
⁶In time we exist for and with each other.
⁷In timelessness we coexist with God.
Simplified
Right-mindedness is in time.
Right-mindedness is directed by Jesus.
One-mindedness is timelessness.
One-mindedness is directed by God.

⁴I do not have to worry about what to say or what to do, because He Who sent me will direct me.
⁵I am content to be wherever He wishes, knowing He goes there with me.
⁶I will be healed as I let Him teach me to heal.
