The only mind capable of understanding human events is …

God is your consciousness; your I AM ness.

The drama of life is psychological. You bring circumstances to pass by your attitudes, not your acts. The cornerstone upon which all things are based is your concept of self. You act as you do and have the experiences you have because of your concept of self and for no other reason.
Had you a different concept of self, you would act differently and have different experiences. By assuming the feeling of your wish fulfilled, your future is altered for assumptions, though false, if sustained will harden into facts.

I will be still, and let the earth be still along with me. And
in that stillness we will find the peace of God. It is within
my heart, which witnesses to God Himself.

How to Recharge Your Motivation

Vernon Linwood Howard: "You've heard of compulsive gamblers, compulsive spenders, compulsive drinkers. How about compulsive thinkers? Do we have any representatives of that classification in the room?
Well, you have a lot to think about now about compulsive thinking. It won’t let you alone, will it? In spite of everything you do, it attacks in the day, it attacks at bedtime. And sometimes there are several attacks coming at once in different directions and all the time you’re looking for the right attacking thought that might give you a way out.
You might as well understand right now that any forced obsessive, compulsive thinking is bad for you; it’s an enemy, not a single one of them can ever work to give you release from them because the enemy is certainly not going to come over onto your side and give you relief."

Be still, and lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what God is; all concepts you have learned about the world; all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or false, or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy, and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. Hold onto nothing. Do not bring with you one thought the past has taught, nor one belief you ever learned before from anything. Forget this world, forget this course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your God. Lesson 189

The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is
everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His
Son. The Love of God within me sets me free. ACIM

"The Agreement to Join" (T-28.III)

(Paragraph 2 - Sentences 1-2) No mind is sick until another mind agrees that they are separate. And thus it is their joint decision to be sick.

Obviously, this has no meaning to anyone who believes that this world is real. This only has meaning when we can step back and rise above the battleground, above the world of the body, and look down from that point in the mind where the love and the truth of Jesus stand with us. We then can realize that sickness has nothing at all to do with the body. Sickness is the decision to be separate. As I have been saying, these lines help us understand and appreciate just how radical this thought system is. All sickness—in fact, everything of the body—is of the mind, because there is nothing in the body.

Ectoplasm: Spiritualist bunk that reflected the science of it’s time.

"TELEVISION NEWS

Four people sat in front of a television set and watched a news story. The story was a combination of human madness and human tragedy.

One viewer worried, 'I wonder how this event will affect my business?'

A second man accused, 'People like that always cause trouble.'

The third viewer arrogantly stated, 'If people would only listen to my solutions there would be no more such disasters.'

The fourth man reflected to himself, 'Esoteric science explains why this event happened as it did. There is no mass cure, but thank heaven for individual healing.'

_The only mind capable of understanding human events is a mind which has transcended its own self-centered errors_. " Vernon Linwood Howard

No. 8 wire is supposed to be used for electric fencing, but in New Zealand its use is much more widespread than that. ... It's New Zealand's version of duct tape.

Number 8 wire refers specifically to a gauge of wire which, during the colonization of New Zealand, was predominantly used for making fences. It is a versatile type of wire, as it was used by the earliest settlers of NZ, as not only fencing material, but as a general “do it all” fix, similar to what Duct-tape has become. Being thousands of miles away from extra tools, parts or technical guidance, the English who initially settled in NZ had to not only have a lot of initiative but also had to be creative and able to adapt to sudden changes and difficult circumstances. The number 8 wire attitude allows one to ‘think outside the box’ and develop other methods and solutions
