Lesson for the Day: Monday, January 4, 2016

by

Welcome to the lesson of the day.
 
Once again...this is a very simple process of practice.
 
Throughout your day...you are going to have little moments in time when you become aware of your thoughts. This means that you are going to actually notice that you are thinking something...or feeling something...or both.
 
This is a moment of self-awareness.
 
You...notice...yourself...thinking and or feeling...something.
 
For a brief little moment you have the opportunity to deliberately choose what you think next. This is not about making a mood, by the way.
 
Okay...so now you have a little opening of the window into your own thoughts...and you insert this thought construct: 
"God Loves Me." 
 
It is not necessary for you to believe this or to agree with this or to try and contemplate the meaning of this statement.
 
All you do is think these three words in succession...one after the other.
 
That's it.
 
And let the three word thought construct be with your thinking. This means to think these three words over and over...easily...gently...just let them be there...in your awareness...as you have other thoughts and feelings come and go...throughout your day.
 
You will probably notice that the three word thought construct gets supplanted a lot. The three words will get overrun by your thoughts and feelings...and you'll be absorbed in thinking about stuff that is going on in your life...the work you are doing...or some show you are watching...or some book you are reading...or some conversation you are having with somebody...or just lost in some memory or feelings...maybe daydreaming about something.
 
Then you will become aware', "...Oh yes...I am...thinking. Right, okay. So...what is this exercise I am doing today? Oh, yes...the 'God Loves Me' one...right. Okay...here goes: 'God Loves Me, God Loves Me...God Loves Me....'"  



And that's how this goes...how it works...because you consistently come back to the practice of this simple technique...NOT forcing and banging and hammering the three words...but in the other direction...as far as you can get from making an effort or straining...but very definitely DOING it.

What I mean by "very definitely DOING it" is that you do do it...you don't just ignore that gentle prompting from inside yourself, and blow IT off. You do the doing part...which is being very gentle with the inserting of the three word thought construct, "God Loves Me."

And keep pulsing the thought construct...perhaps you have to give it the lightest of touches...to keep it going. And then it will get washed away by the resurgence of your mind, of your self-absorption into your thought world.

So you go...and into the evening...and as you lie down to fall asleep. Be with this process of practice.

The rewards are so out of proportion to the minimal attention you are required to pay to the practice of this very simple technique of God Consciousness.
