Lesson 30: God is in everything I see because God is in my mind

This is a very radical concept to those of us who grew up in any western religious culture. “God is in my mind.”

We think of God as some powerful entity residing in Heaven who brought the universe into existence and somehow oversees the goings-on of various things - perhaps even including the fate of our lives and the entrance criteria into Heaven.

But what if we have it all wrong?

A Course in Miracles (and many other spiritual thought systems) teach that God is not an entity. Just try imagining the concept of infinite love. We can’t. We use words to approximate an indescribable state of never-ending bliss.

And the way we can experience a glimpse of that wonder is by returning to our right mind - which is a reflection of that incredible state.

In fact, everything we experience in the world is a projection of what we’ve chosen in our mind with our thoughts. And by closely watching our thoughts, we can tell whether we’ve chosen our ego mind - which will always show us a world of pain and lack and fear. Or if we’ve chosen our right mind - in which case we’ll see infinite love - or God - in everything.
