CONSTANTLY SEE YOUR REACTIONS
Understand that the exterior world has no influence on you at all. Meet everything with a pure healthy you. It is better to be healthy than to be sick. Constantly see your reactions. What did I just say, feel? All a self-invention you haven’t seen through.
Wake up and go to work! Don’t look at an object and fear it when there is no reason to be fearful. Why do you trust fear instead of Reality? Why are you putting your confidence in being terrified instead of in your heavenly Father? Why are you living in fear and trembling? You depend on a physical world. All you have are mechanical reactions. You react to what you see. These reactions you call you. It’s an illusion. Only God exists. If you had no reactions to what you see, you’d understand that ad. That’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
YOU WERE POSSESSED
If you felt bad this morning, you’re possessed! You’re not evil and you’re not good. You are possessed, sound asleep, ignorant, careless. Never mind your lunch — you’ve got to wake up! You will no longer be weak towards your weakness. The next time you make a mistake, you are not to glorify it. Don’t give it your attention. Satan puts these words in your mouth: “How dumb can I get?” You can’t feel you; there’s no one there to feel. You’ve only felt the ridiculous impostor. Don’t go into self-hate when you make a mistake/error.
“I said something ridiculous.” Don’t keep your self-glorification of your mistake going. “I made a remark to fifty people in the room.” Silence followed. Don’t fall for the trick. Have the attitude, “Who are you trying to kid? I wasn’t good or bad; I was possessed and didn’t know it. I should have been attentive, intelligent. I wanted to be clever but was stupid instead. I’ve been asleep.”
That doesn’t form an ‘I’. Goodness is there when you know you had nothing to do with its creation. You no longer fall for evil. You will then walk in the presence of God. That is the final solution.
