I am in God.
God is in me.
God is all.
All is God.
When you fully accept this truth, there is nothing you will not accept in peace.
Job accepted the sores that covered his body from head to toe, because he saw that even the sores are from God.
Peace Pilgrim accepted nearly freezing to death at night on a deserted road in Arizona, because physical death is merely a transition in God.
Job and Peace Pilgrim could not be separated from God. Nothing was a curse for them. Every situation was a reminder of their love for God (truth).
That is true perception.
If that is not how you see, then there are misperceptions in your mind that can be healed.
Today’s reading says:
Everything that you see,
and the way in which you see it,
is a reflection of your feelings and your beliefs about you.
The “you” in this sentence is inclusive. It includes the body-mind-personality that you identify with as your self, and it also includes everyone and everything.
For example, if you see someone in politics as arrogant, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you see your personality as arrogant. You may never have had that thought about yourself. However, it does mean that arrogance is a belief in your mind. You believe some people are better than others, and you believe that some people can see themselves as higher on that scale of better and lesser than they actually are. Without these ideas, you could never see anyone as arrogant. You can only see someone as arrogant if you believe in worthy and unworthy or better and less than.
Every false belief that you carry in your mind is reflected back to you through your way of seeing the world, which includes but is not limited to your way of seeing the body-mind-personality that you identify with.
The entire world, including your body-mind-personality and everything else in the world, is like one big mirror. You are consciousness looking in the mirror. By looking in the mirror and noticing how you feel about what you see, you discover the beliefs and misperceptions that are hidden in your mind.
Today’s reading recommends that you use the mirror of manifestation to uncover every false belief, so it can be healed.
Again, let me emphasize that people often misunderstand this process of uncovering false beliefs. They think, for example, that if I see that person as one who takes advantage of others, that means I (this body-mind-personality) take advantage of others. That may not be true. Taking advantage of others may not be part of the script for the body-mind-personality that you identify with. It may be extremely shy and meek. However, if you feel that someone is taking advantage of others and have some sense of judgment about that, it means there are beliefs in your mind that allow you to see that perception in the way that you do. You believe in separation, autonomy, right, wrong and victimization. Without these core beliefs, you could never see one person taking advantage of another.
In order to discover what you believe, notice how you feel about everything that comes into your awareness in the world. Whenever you are not entirely at peace with what you see, practice inquiry to discover what you believe.
