~Commentary on False Perception~
The closed-box is false perception. False perception is a way of seeing what is as if it is something it isn’t. False perception can also be called blindness, because it hides the truth from the mind that has chosen to be deceived.
The good news, however, is simply this: “It hides the truth from the mind that has chosen to be deceived.” And if the mind has chosen to be deceived, it can also choose again by choosing not to re-believe its own deception.
Ask, “What am I believing that is not in alignment with what I am?” And as you ask this question, remember that you do not know what you are. If you can ask this question with the realization you know not what you are, the thinking mind will not be able to figure out an answer. Any answer that is given is given by true awareness. Therefore, it is a truly helpful answer.
You need not know what you are doing to be helped by God, for God does know. God can show you and enlighten you if only you will surrender with a desire to be shown.

Thoughts of Awakening # 317
The past is a limit you place
on the present and the future.
As you choose the past as a limit
you see what you expect.
This is a limit
or a closed-box experience.
But the walls of the box
have been built by you,
and by meaning you have chosen to believe.
Nothing holds the box in place
but you
through your choice
to re-believe the meaning of the past
again and again.
