Cause and Effect

 

 "If I intervened between your thoughts and their results, I would be tampering with

a basic law of cause and effect; the most fundamental law there is." T-2.VII.1:4-5

 

Mind - Internal Frame of Reference – Cause

 

 

Effect

 

My Belief

generates

My Thoughts

project

   My illusory "Reality" perception of the world

Ego illusion: I unconsciously believe I am a body, guilty of separating from God, vulnerable and needy.  

Others can attack me, so I must be alert to defend myself, by attack if necessary. (wrong-minded)

       I see and experience fear and conflict. I condemn others. 

Hell

All minds are joined and cooperate in the “reality” I want to see.

Each perception of “external reality” is a pictorial representation of my own attack thoughts.


To shift from fearful ego illusions to the truth of love I choose to

Study A Course in Miracles; pray; begin to change my beliefs; awaken

Notice and give up my attack thoughts to Holy Spirit, healing my perceptions by realizing nothing actually occurred (forgiveness). I understand and accept others as one with me and with God.

Mind - Internal Frame of Reference – Cause

 

 

Effect

My Belief

generates

My Thoughts

vision of

My Reality - my recognition of God's presence.

Truth: I know I am spirit, innocent, at one with God / Love.

 

Others are innocent. Everything is for my best interests. My holiness blesses world. (right-minded)

    I experience peace and joy. I understand and accept others.
