Journal for Day 18
LESSON 18
I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing.

“Today’s idea does not refer to what you see as much as to how you see it. Therefore, the exercises for today emphasize this aspect of your perception.”

We project the world we see and then we decide what it means. We often share our projections. We are in agreement about the world we see on the whole. We agree on the sky and stars and planets. We agree on the landscape in general. So when we look at the world our eyes show us and believe it is real, we reinforce for all of us the belief in these agreed upon illusions. We keep all of us in thrall to the ego. When we accept that the world is part of our hallucination, we loosen the hold the ego has on the mind and thus we bring all of us closer to freedom.

Jesus says this: “Christ-controlled miracles are part of the Atonement. But Christ-guidance is personal and leads to personal salvation.”

Here is what I think about this expressed as an example. For a while after Trump was elected, I held him in contempt, and this caused me to lose my peace and forget my purpose.

When I could no longer tolerate the lack of peace, I asked for correction. I asked for another way to see this situation and this man. Because I was wholehearted in my desire for peace, the shift in thinking was immediate and I was again at peace. I began to pray for my brother rather than curse him. This guidance I received was for my personal salvation.

But it does not end there. When I was in contempt, I was feeding contempt into the Consciousness and strengthening hatred within the Sonship. When I chose healing instead, I began to feed love and peace into the Sonship. In both cases, the Sonship (all of us) was affected by my choice. Whoever was receptive to the belief in hatred was influenced by that choice. Whoever was receptive to awakening was influenced by my healed thoughts. So I was never alone in the experiencing the effects of my seeing.
