“It can, indeed, be terribly frustrating for someone to say, “All of that on which you base your life does not exist, for it is not real.” Do not be frightened by this notion. Rather rejoice. For the truth of what I have just said is the key that shall unlock the door to your freedom, and your joy, to your peace, and to love.”
Some of the lessons for this week have been about your thoughts – that you have no neutral thoughts, that you are not alone in the effects of your seeing, that you want to see things differently. All of them have been about your thinking, and your thoughts. That seems strange, does it not, when we spent the first lessons telling you that your thoughts don’t mean anything, that your thoughts aren’t even real.”
“I am fully aware that you have chosen to spend this sojourn upon your earth, that you have assumed the illusion of bodies and form. I am also aware that an integral part of that illusion of form is the illusion of your thoughts. It would be very difficult, too difficult for most of you, for me to begin with the command, “Stop thinking” – even though that IS your goal, and I HAVE told you to do just that.”
“However, I have stated that this is a Course in mind training. And you will become aware, as you progress through the lessons, that you are, in fact, thinking. Do not dismay. For the lessons are geared to train your mind to let go of that selfsame thinking which you currently use.”
