Now that the world situation looks uncertain and most people are worried about the future, I continue to read the book A Course of Love. It makes me feel calm and perceives the world in a new way. People can choose to see a situation with the eyes of fear or with the eyes of love. It can be difficult to choose the path of love when everyday events remind me. When I slow down and don't stress, it is easier to hear and feel what choice I should make. I understand that I should stop judging, assessing and valuing.
There is a fun example if you want to try out what it feels like inside when you are not judging. Do this:
You look out the window and see the beautifully green lawn, the sun is shining brightly and warming the earth, the birds in the trees are chirping beautifully and the flowers in the flowerbed are so beautifully colored and attract butterflies. Instead of saying or thinking these descriptive words, you simply report what you see: “the lawn is green, the sun is shining, the birds are chirping and the flowers are blooming.”
Notice if you experience any difference. Do you feel closer to nature and everything you see?
To see with the eyes of fear is to see the illusion and to see with the eyes of truth is to see the truth.
In the chapter “Physical Reality” I read the following: “You must not fear the changes that will occur within your physical form as it begins to be guided by the thought system of the truth rather than the thought system of illusion. You will fear these changes less if you realize that all that has come of love will be kept and that all that has come of fear will fall away.”
