D418 Quotes #1457 - #1460
Questioning thoughts is not going to lead to Self-realization because thoughts do not come from Self. Thoughts come and go. If you were judging the coming and going, youβd say some are good and some are bad thoughts. Donβt let thoughts become a distraction. Go beyond thought to find Self.

D419 Quotes #1461 - #1464
Where is attention? What is attention focused on? My thoughts? My emotions? My experiences? If so, know these are obstacles and distractions from Self-realization. When noticing that attention is focused on thoughts, emotions or experiences this noticing, being aware of the distraction, is a step toward Self-realization because you see that attention is not on the Self. This noticing is Awareness. Now when you notice, turn attention to Awareness and away from whatever thoughts, emotions, or experiences are the distraction. Remember to keep attention here as long as possible. Return attention here as often as necessary.
D420 Quotes #1465 - #1468
We continue to look inward toward Self and focus attention here. This Self if the I Am that is the life force of all forms of beings, not just human beings. When I identify as I am Mary, that is the ego thought of a separate being, not the I Am Consciousness.
D421 & D422 & D423
We are all included in this Holy Life β Living Oneness. And yet, as individual manifestations of the Universal Energy, we each have a unique path to follow and come to knowing in our own time and in our own way. This happens naturally as we receive from and give love to everyone on the path. I find comfort in knowing that although we must each travel our own path to where we already are, we have the love and support of our holy companions. And there is great joy in knowing that everyone will Awaken at their chosen time and in their chosen way and all will know the Peace that passes all understanding.
D424 Quotes #1481 - #1484
The ACIM workbook lessons so prepared me for these quotes. Mindfulness and meditation lead one to awareness of Awareness. Now I Am aware of Awareness. Awareness is the known, never changing β always observing β always available. Now I understand that it is more important to know Awareness & live in Awareness than to know all the stuff of the world, any stuff of the world that Iβve been taught. Place Attention on Awareness, always!
