LESSON FIFTEEN

TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: The Course text is in bold face. The Guidance is in normal type In His Guidance, He has asked Me to capitalize the pronouns You and We as an acknowledgement of the Divinity of All of Us, an acknowledgement of Equality, an expression of His Love and respect for You. When You see the word ‘YOU’ capitalized in the Guidance, know that He is not just speaking to YOU, He is honoring YOU.

My thoughts are images which I have made.

The ideas to be grasped within this Lesson are quite important for All of You to understand on Your journey Home, journey without distance.

It is a journey from one way of thinking to another. It is a trip from lies and misery to Truth and happiness forever, a simple change of mind.  Light-years are traversed within an Instant: a Holy Instant.

¹ It is because the thoughts you think you think appear as images that you do not recognize them as nothing.

Yet sight is not ever separated from sound and fragrance, flavor and feeling. For Your experience must be complete or it does not really exist at all.

Separation is far more total than You have heretofore understood. You have thought that separation referred to You and God and to All Your Others, but that Your mode of cognizing all Things is accurate. It isn’t. This is so far from the Truth of Be-ing.

You have not realized that what You see ‘out there’ is but Your thought out-pictured. It is not God’s Reality, nor can it ever be. Reality exists as Consciousness Divinely Presenced, as All of God’s Creation. You have no separate thoughts, not any; for consciousness is shared and all Real Thought is harmonious.

What do I mean by this? That as Reality each One’s thinking is like a note in a symphony, blending exquisitely with all other lovely thought as the most joyous harmony. Words cannot convey this experience for it has many levels experienced through all the senses simultaneously.

You think you think them, and so you think you see them. This is how your “seeing” was made. This is the function you have given your body’s eyes. It is not seeing. It is image-making. It takes the place of seeing, replacing vision with illusions.

There can be no Reality to this so-called ‘seeing’ for it is a solitary endeavor. Does one note alone make a symphony? To sing of God All-Loving takes a Universal chorus. To see God All-Loving everywhere You look takes the Universal eyes of Love.

This Lesson does turn You around to see by Love’s direction as You allow it. This is Christ’s Vision.

² This introductory idea to the process of image-making which you call seeing will not have much meaning for you. You will begin to understand it when you have seen little edges of light around the same familiar objects which you see now. That is the beginning of real vision. You can be certain that real vision will come quickly when this has occurred.

³ As we go along, you may have many “light episodes.” They may take many different forms, some of them quite unexpected. Do not be afraid of them. They are signs that you are opening your eyes at last. They will not persist, because they merely symbolize true perception, and they are not related to knowledge. These exercises will not reveal knowledge to you. But they will prepare the way to it.

⁴ In practicing the idea for today, repeat it first to yourself, and then apply it to whatever you see around you, using its name and letting your eyes rest on it as you say:

⁵ This _____ is an image which I have made.
   That _____ is an image which I have made.

⁶ It is not necessary to include a large number of specific subjects for the application of today’s idea. It is necessary, however, to continue to look at each subject while you repeat the idea to yourself. The idea should be repeated quite slowly each time.

⁷ Although you will obviously not be able to apply the idea to very many things during the minute or so of practice that is recommended, try to make the selection as random as possible. Less than a minute will do for the practice periods, if you begin to feel uneasy. Do not have more than three application periods for today’s idea unless you feel completely comfortable with it, and do not exceed four.
