The Power of an Open Mind

Let us be still an instant, and forget all things we ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception that we hold of what things mean and what their purpose is. ²Let us remember not our own ideas of what the world is for. ³We do not know. ⁴Let every image held of everyone be loosened from our minds and swept away.

Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any thoughts of evil or of good that ever crossed your mind of anyone. ²Now do you know him not. ³But you are free to learn of him, and learn of him anew. ⁴Now is he born again to you, and you are born again to him, without the past that sentenced him to die, and you with him. ⁵Now is he free to live as you are free, because an ancient learning passed away, and left a place for truth to be reborn. (A Course in Miracles, T-31.I.12:1–13:5. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

Our constant efforts to evaluate and categorize stand as a barrier against recognizing the one truth that will set us free from all fear and guilt. The Love that is our true Identity cannot be perceived with eyes dedicated to seeing differences. Love is one and the same, always.

Today we practice stepping back from our judgments to open our mind to see everyone without judgment, unencumbered by past thoughts. We are free to learn that we live in the Presence of Love, always whole and complete. We let truth be reborn in our mind open to the truth.
