ACIM Workbook Lesson #17
"I see no neutral things".
The admission to ourselves that everything we see is colored by our beliefs and judgments is a large realization indeed! Being aware of this is a very important step in our clearing the way for spiritual thought to flow through us unrestricted by habitual, limiting ways of seeing everything. Sometimes I think it would be easier to achieve this lofty goal if I could live alone on a mountaintop, with no neighbors or roommates, with no job to go to or money to think about. What a nice life it would be to revel in silence, take long walks at any time of day, only cook when I want to, and not have social obligations. What a relief to not hear news or commercials from the media in any form. How nice to not go to meetings, to not tweet and blog, to email only as pure communication with friends. It would be lovely to not deal with flat tires and fallen trees. And wouldn't it be sweet for non-profit organizations to have all they need, for no one to be hungry, for no one to be afraid. Imagine everyone knowing the true source of their well-being, demonstrating it in daily life, and shouting it from the rooftops. Imagine ~~~
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
"To corporeal sense, the sun appears to rise and set, and the earth to stand still; but astronomical science contradicts this, and explains the solar system as working on a different plan. All the evidence of physical sense and all the knowledge obtained from physical sense must yield to Science [the knowledge of Christ-consciousness], to the immortal truth of all things."
