Tips From Regina – Regina’s Review, Lesson 56

March 11, 2017 By Dawn Fernandez

Review 26. My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability: What business does one who wants to be immersed in God have thinking about the world? Find the way of living that does not require thinking. It is a path that is right here at your feet now, but all that you think must be let go to see it.

Review 27. Above all else I want to see: This is another way of saying, “Above all else I want to be immersed in truth-awareness.” One who wants to be immersed in truth-awareness must keep God on her mind. A loving, devotional attitude is best. Worship God in every experience. Let the false self be lost in the devotional thought of God.

Review 28. Above all else I want to see differently: When what you see does not shine with true awareness, look to see what your thoughts are. Your attention has strayed from your heart. Your sight witnesses to your attention. Be grateful that the world has awakened you, and bring your attention back to God. Sing a silent song of devotion, and reawaken to your heart.

Review 29. God is in everything I see: Life-intelligence-open-awareness is always present. Reflect on it, and it will be reflected to you. Sing of it, and it will sing to you. Dwell on it. Be with it. Stay with it.

Review 30. God is in everything I see because God is in my mind: Close your eyes for a moment and feel your own heart. Notice your presence as open awareness. Be aware of your silent intelligence. See that you are life. Look within, and see yourself.

“Living with memories isn’t fulfilling God’s plan for your life. God is life within you, eagerly seeking unity and with other life, yearning to picture forth the health and joy and strength and usefulness that there is in all God life.”  Myrtle Fillmore

Tips From Regina – Regina’s Review, Lesson 55

March 10, 2017 By Dawn Fernandez

Review 21. I am determined to see things differently: I do not know how enlightenment sees. It seems to me that if I decide on a belief about what enlightenment sees, I may restrict myself to my belief. I do not want to be restricted by my imagination of truth. I want the genuine experience of truth. Therefore, my strategy for ‘seeing’ is this:

I will continually increase my focus on God, while simultaneously letting go of everything in me that I recognize as not God. As I take care of myself in this way, I trust seeing will take care of itself.

Review 22. What I see is a form of vengeance: What I see has changed, because my mind—my attention—has changed. My seeing is more joyous and more reverent than before.

I spontaneously notice the majestic power of a bird’s flapping wings as it passes overhead, and it takes my breath away. I hear silence amidst the sounds of this world and feel its peace in my heart. I see ‘problems’ as temporary and life as unending.

Where is there room for improvement?

I see life as busy. I see humans creating their own busyness unnecessarily. I realize I am caught in this cycle. Busyness needs to be questioned, because it keeps us centered in the world instead of in God.

What I see is a form of busyness. ~ha ha~ Okay, this tells me what I need to work on, and so I will.

Review 23. I can escape from this world by giving up attack thoughts: I want to put more focus on God. I can feel this in the core of my being.

I recently had a dream that showed I want to take the solitary trek to God, but I am allowing myself to be pulled back into the world by ‘others.’

Do I want to take the solitary trek that is calling me?

Am I willing to give up what I think others want in order to do this?

Review 24. I do not perceive my own best interests: The ego is willing to hi-jack this calling for aloneness with God. It is eager to plan my escape. I cannot think about how I will take this solitary trek, because ego will be in the thinking. My best guidance is to say ‘yes,’ and then remain present for in-the-moment intuition as it occurs. It knows the way. Thinking does not.

Review 25. I do not know what anything is for. Therefore, I cannot judge. To judge is to invest in ignorance. To be, is to be centered in wisdom

Tips From Regina – Regina’s Review, Lesson 54

March 9, 2017 By Dawn Fernandez

Review 16. I have no neutral thoughts. It is time for maturity. Maturity begins by realizing who I am, what is true and what is false. This is wisdom. Maturity lives from wisdom.

What I am is living-intelligent-open-awareness.
What is true is what I am, life-intelligence-love-presence.
What is false is form. Form is the manifestation of story, changing story.

To live with maturity is to stay in touch with what is true. Allow the false to be. Allow it to be as incidental, while abiding lovingly with the true.

Review 17. I see no neutral things. Everything perceived with the senses is the manifestation of thought. There is no difference between the thoughts in one’s brain and the form sensed with the body. Maturity does not see a difference between these things.

To live with maturity is to stay in touch with what is true. Allow the false to be. Allow it to be without undue emphasis. Interact with it appropriately. Interact with it while abiding lovingly with the true.

Review 18. I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing. Abide lovingly with the true, and radiate truth. Forget the truth, and radiate confusion. To radiate is natural and uninterruptable, so it is always occurring. Maturity is aware of this fact, so it lovingly abides with the true in order to communicate consistently the compassionate message of truth.

Review 19. I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts. To wander from my realization of truth is to spread confusion. At this stage, spreading confusion is still a possibility for me. I can get lazy, go back to sleep and forget what I know, but I don’t have to. I don’t have to, and I don’t want to. I am fully capable of remaining awake and aware now. It is time for maturity, and I am ready to be responsibly and lovingly mature. There’s nothing else that I need. My stage of awakening to wisdom is complete.

Review 20. I am determined to see. Seeing is nothing more than a present choice to abide with truth. I can do this now, and so I will.

Tips From Regina – Regina’s Review, Lesson 53

March 8, 2017 By Dawn Fernandez

 

Review 11. My meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless world. When I see with the mind, I am lost in an individualistic illusion that has no meaning at all. When I see with the heart, I am in communication with my true Self. When I am in communication with my true Self, I know my real thoughts. My real thoughts are meaning.

My real thoughts have a different quality than meaningless thoughts.

Meaningless thoughts are stories—maybe that is why they are so entertaining, but I want to remember that when the quality is story, the thought is not true. Story is individual interpretation, based on the scribbles inside the box. Highly individualized, these stories have no meaning at all.

My real thoughts are more like attitudes or a general environment in which everything is seen. My real thoughts include all-is-well (peace), open-embracing-acceptance (love), an inherent sense freedom—a sense of soaring from within (joy), intimacy with everything (oneness), and compassion for anyone who suffers because of belief in the box.

Review 12. I am upset because I see a meaningless world. Whenever I am not at peace, I am believing the box. Remembering this is enough to shift me from belief in the box to my real thoughts.

My real thoughts include compassion for myself, open-embracing-acceptance of what is, and the realization that all is well. By resting in these realizations, I rest in my real thoughts. As I rest in my real thoughts, I remember what is true, because my real thoughts are true.

Review 13. A meaningless world engenders fear. One idea written inside the box is that its stories are meaning. When I believe this idea, I draw a sense of security from the box. I believe that staying in the box is safety. I believe anything outside of the box is dangerous.

I want to overcome this backwards thought. There isn’t safety in the box. The story that is playing now may seem like a good one, but it is fragile. Good can turn to bad in an instant in the box. Look at the box honestly.

Eternal peace-life-love is realized only by abandoning the box.

This is my prayer:

Let me overcome my attraction to the box and realize all-encompassing love for the truth that is known when the box is removed.

Review 14. God did not create a meaningless world. I can have confidence that if I want it, the box will be removed. I can have confidence in that because the box is not true. It remains on my head only because I am holding it there. If I let go, a wind will come and blow the box away.

My job is to learn not to reach for the box, so that the wind can blow it away. I am ready to learn that lesson now. My readiness is demonstrated by consistently letting go of the box.

Review 15. My thoughts are images I have made. I have drawn what’s inside the box by being interested in the box’s drawings. As I stare at the drawings that are already there, the drawings multiply.

I have two choices. I can continue to be fascinated with the box, and the automatic scribbling will continue. Or I can let go of the box and discover the freedom of the endless world outside of the box.

Which choice do I want? Which choice makes sense?
