July - September, 2006
A difficult dream awoke me last night. I decided to put my favorite CD from Pathways of Light (course 914) on repeat. I then went back to sleep. When ever I awoke a little, I could hear some sentence of loving truth from the CD.
Gradually my dreams started to change. There was more love and understanding of others as well as more gentleness in them. Then it came to me that if I did this same procedure during the day — that is, always think loving truth — my day dream (life experience) would change naturally from difficulties to loving joy and peace.
The Spider
I saw a big, huge spider just peeping out from under the curtain in the living room. My first thought was that my husband wasn’t here to catch it. Then I wondered if my little container with which I normally catch insects would be big enough. And only then did I look a little closer and discovered that it was only a bit of knitting wool!
This reminded me of the exercise in A Course in Miracles where it says that I give all the meaning there is to an object. Well, what a lesson! What else do I give meaning to which frightens me?
A Testimony
All disease is the result of education, and disease can carry its ill-effects no further than mortal mind maps out the way. (Page 176:25-27 from Science & Health)
A violin student of mine had just finished having her lesson when she mentioned a sore throat. I spoke to her very firmly, saying that she need not have this thought in her mind as thought creates experience. Then I quoted the above and told her how this had once helped me to completely ward off some symptoms of flu.
She listened very attentively and then left, determined not to let any thought like this to govern her experience.
Then I forgot all about it. When I saw her a week later she came in beaming with health and happiness. She had a good lesson and only next day did I remember the whole incident. Yes, Truth does heal!
