P/GoTh:

Be passsersby.

Pursah omits the "J said."
Content:
In the way Pursah introduces this quote in DU, she emphasizes that this also has nothing to do with the physical realm, and with giving anything up. It evidently has to do with our mental attachments that we need to let go of, by stopping to take things so personally.
And with the Course we note that this is another way of saying that we need to watch our thoughts. To the extent that we can learn to be in the observer role, we can join with Jesus, instead of blindly acting out in the world.
