Where is the world you see when its cause is gone?



"Never forget that the vast majority of human beings have no interest at all in inner awakening." VH


Every thought you have makes up some segment of the world you see. It is with your thoughts, then, that we must work, if your perception of the world is to be changed. There is no point in trying to change the world. It is incapable of change because it is merely an effect. But there is indeed a point in changing your thoughts about the world. Here you are changing the cause. The effect will change automatically. You see the world that you have made, but you do not see yourself as the image maker. You cannot be saved from the world, but you can escape from its cause. Where is the world you see when its cause is gone? ACIM

"Esoteric mysticism teaches that humanity dwells in a state of psychic sleep. It can be called by other names such as saying that man lives in foolish illusion. That he deceives himself about everything. That he lives in flattering and self-damaging ideas about himself and his life. This psychic sleep is the cause of every human problem and disaster. It is sleeping people who suffer from heartache and loneliness, from fear and violence. Only self-awakening can end these sorrows." VH
