Do You See What I See... Or Are We Really Seeing It? ACIM Lesson 7

Woohoo! It is only a mild milestone but as of todays lessons i have done 7 lessons in 7 consecutive days. My goal is to go through all of the lessons this year (but that does not mean the learning stops there... I have a feeling i will keep revisiting these lessons for years to come).

Todays lesson was particularly interesting. I always start off my notes with putting the lesson #, the date, and the lesson name/concept (whatever you would like to call it) and as you can tell i was like "WTF" right away. Before reading any of the lesson of course my ego was like "How can you see only the past. Even if it is just a split second you are currently being and seeing in the present. What in the hell is this book trying to teach you." I then told my ego to go f#ck itself (hey, its my blog, and i write how i want) and continued on.

I really liked the example it gave about seeing a cup. Are you really seeing the cup or are you just going over in your head and reviewing what you have been taught is a cup and what it is used for. As the book says "what do you know about this cup except what you learned in the past?" 

It is true. All of what we know is rooted in time. And since we base everything we know now based off of experiences from the past we there for see only in the past because that is all we know (though i wonder how they would account for time machines).

Things are starting to get interesting...
