LESSON 36
|
|
|
|
|
My holiness envelops everything I see.
|
|
|
|
Today's idea extends the idea for yesterday from the
perceiver to the perceived. You are holy because your mind is part of
God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be holy as well.
"Sinless" means without sin. You cannot be without sin a
little. You are sinless or not. If your mind is part of God's you must
be sinless, or a part of His Mind would be sinful. Your sight is
related to His Holiness, not to your ego, and therefore not to your
body. |
|
|
Four three-to-five-minute practice periods are required for
today. Try to distribute them fairly evenly, and make the shorter
applications frequently, to protect your protection throughout the day.
The longer practice periods should take this form: |
|
|
First, close your eyes and repeat the idea for today
several times, slowly. Then open your eyes and look quite slowly about
you, applying the idea specifically to whatever you note in your casual
survey. Say, for example: |
|
|
|
My holiness envelops that rug. |
|
|
|
|
My holiness envelops that
wall. |
|
|
|
|
My holiness envelops these
fingers. |
|
|
|
|
My
holiness envelops that chair. |
|
|
|
|
My
holiness envelops that body. |
|
|
|
|
My
holiness envelops this pen. |
|
|
|
Several times during these practice periods, close your eyes and repeat
the idea to yourself. Then open your eyes, and continue as before. |
|
|
For the shorter exercise periods, close your eyes and
repeat the idea; look about you as you repeat it again; and conclude
with one more repetition with your eyes closed. All applications should,
of course, be made quite slowly, as effortlessly and unhurriedly as
possible. |
