with your Heart
“Nothing
I see in this room [on this street,
from this window, in this place] means anything.”
Now look
slowly around you, and practice applying this idea very specifically to
whatever you see:
This table does not mean anything.
This chair does not mean anything
This hand does not mean anything.
This foot does not mean anything.
This
pen does not mean anything.
Then look farther away from your immediate area, and apply the idea to
a wider range:
That door does not mean anything.
This body does not mean anything.
This lamp does not mean anything.
This sign does not mean anything
This shadow does not mean anything.
Notice
that these statements are not arranged in any order, and make no
allowance for differences in the kinds of things to which they are
applied. That is the purpose of the exercise. The statement should
merely be applied to anything you see. As you practice the idea for the
day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do not attempt to apply it to
everything you see, for these exercises should not become ritualistic.
Only be sure that nothing you see is specifically excluded. One thing
is like another as far as the application of the idea is concerned.
Each of the
first three lessons should not be done more than twice a day each,
preferably morning and evening. Nor should they be attempted for more
than a minute or so, unless that entails a sense of hurry. A
comfortable sense of leisure is essential.
Dear Spirit,
Please share with me how I can see the way you speak of in lesson 1;
"Nothing I see
in this room [on this street, from this window,
in this
place] means anything."
Spirits
Speaks to my Heart:
No-thing of this world
means anything when you walk beside our Heavenly Father...For with Him the world
you see is real for He shows you the only Truth there is... the Love that
you are....Take not your eyes off
of the Highest Intent within you - Know
He will show you how to see...For He
is your Eyes....Your Ears...Your Love.
