Then, a queit voice whispered: “No conflict. No conflict.” 

Conflict is the best possible time to ask the question I mentioned before: "holy spirit, what would you have me say or do in this situation?" because when conflict is there, ego is on fire and wants to do all kinds of nasty things. But with prayer we can find a new voice, the voice of our higher self, the voice of peace. And then express that energy instead. It's a very powerful practice to transcend the ego. 

⁵Whatever troubles you, be certain that He has the answer, and will gladly give it to you, if you simply turn to Him and ask it of Him. ⁶He will not withhold all answers that you need for anything that seems to trouble you. ⁷He knows the way to solve all problems, and resolve all doubts. ⁸His certainty is yours. ⁹You need but ask it of Him, and it will be given you. (https://acim.org/acim/en/s/788#1:5-9 | W-ep.1:5-9)

²Henceforth, hear but the Voice for God and for your Self when you retire from the world, to seek reality instead. ³He will direct your efforts, telling you exactly what to do, how to direct your mind, and when to come to Him in silence, asking for His sure direction and His certain Word. ⁴His is the Word that God has given you. ⁵His is the Word you chose to be your own.

I’ve tried asking Spirit to give me Her thoughts and guide me in what to say in this particular situation, I got silent, listened, thought I heard it, said it and then found out it wasn’t right. 💁‍♂️🥺

Lol, when you say "this situation" you mean responding to me? 

[Salvijus]

Idk, it works for me like a miracle in every situation. I've gotten used to doing this practice so much that I barely say anything unless I first go within and ask the spirit, "how do I respond to this situation?" it happens automatically for me at this point. It's not always easy to hear the peace's voice if the noise of the conflict is very loud. Then I might get pulled into that energy aswell and express it by not being vigilant enough to hear the spirits voice. But it's an amazing practice. It did absolute wonders for me in terms of forgiveness and being able to hold greater volumes of light and peace in the middle of the hottest conflicts. In fact the bigger the conflict, the bigger the opportunity for transcendce. The hot energy melts everything down inside like molten lava leaving only the shining truth like a diamond.

Also holy thought system is not about imitating the behavior of a loving person. It has to be genuine. One has to find that place of peace where the thoughts are in alignment with unity and good will. A place where christed thoughts are normal. A holy thought system is a natural occurrence that happens when we allow the holy spirit to talk through us. But we need prayer to connect and hear the answer. Simply sitting quietly and observing thoughts is not enough. Although a stage may come where you don't need intentionally to ask for guidance anymore because it happens automatically when you're still. But in the beginning prayer has to be very deliberate and intentional until it becomes your second nature.

Oh, I think this does work in conflicts, yes. I think asking: what would Love do? Is also effective.
 

In the scenario I mentioned, I just got a very difficult question from someone I know irl. I had no idea how to answer it and so asked Spirit and got into a meditative state. I thought that an answer will come - and I thought it did - but a day or two later I realized it wasn’t how things work. I think I responded in a kind way, but in terms of metaphysics, I don’t think it was true. 🤦‍♂️

Hm, I think a Holy Thought System, where we see everyone as innocent and perfect Spirit — creates a loving and peaceful internal state and from that state kind behaviour and words flow naturally.

Those are two sides of the same coin really. But how you see the world largely depends on what you identify with. If you shift your identity to love's presence, then it's vision and its holy thoughts will follow naturally. I guess other way around works aswell, idk.
