This part of our mind here thinks it is separate from everyone and everything. Since thought creates reality (not truth, but what we perceive as reality because what we see, hear, taste, touch, smell and feel is really our own thoughts running through our nervous system; a mind that splits itself off from source is incapable of creating truth – the only thing an imprisoned mind is capable of doing is creating illusions), so since thought creates reality, we have made the thought of separation – separation from the universe, separation from God, separation from abundance, separation from love, separation from knowledge, separation from everything that’s contained in Source – real to us.
And since thought has the habit to return to its thinker, all these thoughts of separation from everything which we continually project, because remember, it is in the nature of the mind to continually extend itself, just that in the case of an imprisoned mind extensions become projections; so since thought has the habit to return to its thinker, all these thoughts of separation from everything which we continually project – and these thoughts show as thoughts of lack, poverty, lovelessness, worthlessness, powerlessness etc, thoughts that deny everything that’s up here – so all these separative thoughts then come back to us and we experience them as attack.
And then, as a consequence, we get scared of worthlessnes, poverty, lack, death and all the rest. We are scared of our own attack thoughts which are merely projections of separation returning to us.
Yet they are all illusions. Everything up here is truth, everything down here is illusion. Oneness is truth. Separation is illusion. All our fears are illusions because all fears are based on the thought that separation is real, which is a faulty thought to begin with. Yet, the whole negative ego thought system is based on that very premise. It is based on a lie.
And we all live our lives based on this lie. And we react to things and get angry at people and all the rest and we think something outside of us is doing these things to us – so the blame for our misfortune, for our poverty, our worthlessness, powerlessness, loneliness, lack of health etc. is always outside of us – at least we think so because in truth it is all happening in our own, separative, imprisoned God-denying negative ego mind. But we are projecting it outside of us.
You see, to transcend fear – to transcend poverty, worthlessness, lovelessness, powerlessness etc. which are all expressions of this false evidence of separation appearing real – we have to un-prison our mind. We have to FREE our imprisoned mind. We have to return this part of our mind here which has built a prison for itself, to Source, to the universe, to God. This is what it means to transcend the negative ego mind. This is what it means to transcend fear. This is what it means to return Home.
So we are not extinguishing the fear-based mind, or trying to gain victory over it. We are merely returning it to its Divine Source. We are returning our mind to oneness and love. Love is just another word for oneness. Fear is just another word for separation.
