The difference between this exercise and the past exercise is that the lesson begins with the more specific “my thoughts” rather than the more generalized, “these thoughts”. According to ACIM, “The emphasis is now on the lack of reality of what you think you think.” Not only are the thoughts outside of us meaningless. So are the thoughts within us. The presence of these meaningless thoughts means we are not thinking. Our mind, in reality, is blank.
This idea will help to release me from all that I now believe.
- My thought about my son spending too much money on a television set does not mean anything.
- My thought about my husband’s presentation going OK does not mean anything.
- My thought about changing my food blog does not mean anything.
- My though about my daughter passing her exams does not mean anything.
- My thought about having a messy house does not mean anything.
- My thought about needing to water my houseplants does not mean anything.
- My thought about how it seems strange to market mysticism does not mean anything.
