ACIM Workbook Lesson #4
“These thoughts do not mean anything. They are like the things I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place].”
I heard Wayne Dyer tell us that the average human has around 50,000 thoughts a day. Unfortunately, he said, those thoughts are the same ones we had yesterday! I think this realization makes it easier to see the meaningless-ness of our thoughts. They are, for the most part, by-rote responses to circumstance. Recently I told you that I've been having vivid dreams and wake up wondering what they mean. Today's practice of seeing the lack of meaning to our thoughts is just what I need! It doesn't matter what these dreams mean, because it's all meaningless material interpretation I'm wondering about. By seeing the non-sense of this exercise I've been involved with, I'm freed to forget about it and seek to establish spiritual sense in place of these illusions. I look forward to a universal epiphany of understanding that thought is, in its truest form, Spirit. That time of viewing reality as spiritual, not material, is visible to all who want to see.
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
"Thought will finally be understood and seen in all form, substance, and color, but without material accompaniments. The potter is not in the clay; else the clay would have power over the potter. God is His own infinite Mind, and expresses all."
