…all thoughts have power. They will either make a false world or lead me to the real one. But thoughts cannot be without effects. As the world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected.
What I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not think I would not exist, because life is thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my own state of mind. I know that my state of mind can change. And so I also know the world I see can change as well.
As my thoughts of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as well as mine. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 54, W-pI.54.1:1-5;2:2-6;3:6-7. See also ACIM Lesson 54 Insights.)
In the practice of dream interpretation it is recognized that the images in our dreams represent our thoughts and beliefs. By learning to interpret the images we can learn about beliefs we carry that we have hidden away. Likewise the world we see in our “waking” state is also a representation of what we believe.
With the Holy Spirit’s help we can learn to interpret what we see in the world as keys to understanding our hidden beliefs that make the world seem real. We all know from experience that our beliefs can change. Because the ego thought system is one of separation and isolation, we don’t realize that when we change our beliefs, everyone is affected.
The Holy Spirit remembers for us that we remain united with the truth in everyone. As we learn how to see the world with the Holy Spirit’s vision, we bring unity to the world as we heal our mistaken belief in isolation and separation. The images of separation grow dimmer as the Light of Love that unites us grows stronger in our awareness. Today we choose the Holy Spirit’s interpretation of the world we see.
