Today\u2019s reading is very important. One who genuinely practices today\u2019s reading will advance very quickly. As we have already seen, if we continue to live by our old habits, nothing changes.<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s reading makes two primary points:<\/p>\n
Everything that you see and experience, you see and experience through the filter of your mind.<\/strong><\/p>\n That means your mind at your current vibrational level<\/em>. As you rise in vibration, you still see through the filter of your mind, but how you see changes because the mind is different at a higher vibration. Remember, mind is simply thought. So as thoughts change, perception changes. However, even the highest thought\u2014the highest vibration\u2014is still not reality. Perception is never reality, so perception isn\u2019t knowledge.<\/p>\n Knowledge is peace.<\/strong><\/p>\n Knowledge isn\u2019t \u201cthe right perception.\u201d Perception is always interpretation\u2014always seen through the filter of mind. Knowledge is peace.<\/p>\n Peace isn\u2019t perception. Peace is difficult to describe, because it isn\u2019t an object. It isn\u2019t a thought or emotion. It is the absence of object\u2014the absence of thought and the absence of emotion. It is undisturbed, clear, open awareness. That<\/em> is knowledge.<\/p>\n If we are honest with ourselves, we know when we are caught up in our interpretation and when we are acting with knowledge.<\/p>\n How do we know?<\/p>\n Because peace is either present or it is not.<\/p>\n We can lie to ourselves and claim to be at peace when we are not, but if our desire for truth is strong, we won\u2019t lie to ourselves. From the stance of self-honesty, it is very easy to tell if we are at peace in the moment or if there is a disturbance present.<\/p>\n Today\u2019s reading recommends that we avoid speaking or acting from interpretation, which is not knowledge. It also suggests that we avoid \u201ccorrecting\u201d others whenever there is a disturbance in our mind. Instead, if we notice a disturbance in ourselves, regardless of how small that disturbance is, we do well to seek healing and clarity in quiet.<\/p>\n When we are at peace\u2014meaning there is no disturbance present\u2014we can trust what we feel to say and do. We are moved by knowledge. In fact, one who is moved by knowledge knows she is moved by knowledge, because she does not have her own interpretative reasons for what she is saying, doing or not doing. She does it because she feels moved to do it, and that is all. There is no other reason, because there isn\u2019t an interpretation.<\/p>\n Review today\u2019s reading carefully, contemplatively and repeatedly. After that, I recommend practicing it conscientiously. There is great benefit in putting today\u2019s reading into practice starting immediately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Today\u2019s reading is very important.
