Briefing Doc: A Course In Miracles - Lesson 45
Main Theme: The True Nature of Our Thoughts and Their Connection to the Mind of God
Key Ideas:
1. Our “Real” Thoughts Are Distinct From What We Believe We Think:
The lesson emphasizes the illusion of our daily perceptions and thoughts, stating that they have no connection to true reality.
“There is no relationship between what is real and what you think is real.”
“Nothing that you think are your real thoughts bears any resemblance to your real thoughts.”
2. We Think With the Mind of God:
This foundational concept reveals a sharing of thoughts with God, reflecting a spiritual unity that makes our thoughts eternal and unchanging.
“You think with the Mind of God. Therefore, you share your thoughts with Him, as He shares His Thoughts with you.”
3. Our “Real” Thoughts Reside in Our Minds, Alongside the Mind of God:
The lesson encourages us to seek these thoughts within ourselves, beyond the veil of “unreal” thoughts and limiting beliefs.
“It is in your mind that we will have to look for them, because that is where they are.”
4. The Exercise Leads Us to the “Foundation,” the Place of Union With God’s Mind:
This practice is an act of holiness, guiding us toward the Kingdom of Heaven.
“There your mind is joined with the Mind of God. There your thoughts are one with His.”
