Lesson 2 - I have given everything I see in this room all the meaning that it has for me.

/

I have given everything I see in this room

(on this street, from this window, in this place)

all the meaning that it has for me.

1. The exercises with this idea are the same as those for the first one. 2Begin with the things that are near you, and apply the idea to whatever your glance rests on. 3Then increase the range outward. 4Turn your head so that you include whatever is on either side. 5If possible, turn around and apply the idea to what was behind you. 6Remain as indiscriminate as possible in selecting subjects for its application, do not concentrate on anything in particular, and do not attempt to include everything you see in a given area, or you will introduce strain.

2. Merely glance easily and fairly quickly around you, trying to avoid selection by size, brightness, color, material, or relative importance to you. 2Take the subjects simply as you see them. 3Try to apply the exercise with equal ease to a body or a button, a fly or a floor, an arm or an apple. 4The sole criterion for applying the idea to anything is merely that your eyes have lighted on it. 5Make no attempt to include anything particular, but be sure that nothing is specifically excluded.

✨ Inspired by the core message of the Course:

"Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God."

This lesson comes from (A Course in Miracles). Hemelbewus presents it in Afrikaans as part of a path of inner healing and forgiveness. The translation was done with great care and dedication over several years by Henri Theron, and brings the deep spiritual teachings of the Course to Afrikaans-speaking readers.

Lesson 2 – I have given everything I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place] all the meaning that it has for me. (ACIM, W-2)

Lesson 1 - Nothing I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place] means anything.

/

Nothing I see in this room

(on this street, from this window, in this place)

means anything.

1. Now look slowly around you, and practice applying this idea very specifically to whatever you see:

              2This table does not mean anything.

              3This chair does not mean anything.

              4This hand does not mean anything.

              5This foot does not mean anything.

              6This pen does not mean anything.

2. Then look farther away from your immediate area, and apply the idea to a wider range:

              2That door does not mean anything.

              3That body does not mean anything.

              4That lamp does not mean anything.

              5That sign does not mean anything.

              6That shadow does not mean anything.

3. Notice that these statements are not arranged in any order, and make no allowance for differences in the kinds of things to which they are applied. 2That is the purpose of the exercise. 3The statement should merely be applied to anything you see. 4As you practice the idea for the day, use it totally indiscriminately. 5Do not attempt to apply it to everything you see, for these exercises should not become ritualistic. 6Only be sure that nothing you see is specifically excluded. 7One thing is like another as far as the application of the idea is concerned.

4. Each of the first three lessons should not be done more than twice a day each, preferably morning and evening. 2Nor should they be attempted for more than a minute or so, unless that entails a sense of hurry. 3A comfortable sense of leisure is essential.

Vrywaring / Disclaimer: This Afrikaans version is my interpretation of A Course in Miracles, wat my diep geïnspireer het. Ek het die Kursus in Engels bestudeer en het daarna verlang om my ervaring en insigte in my moedertaal, Afrikaans, te deel. Die werkboek-lesse en terme op hierdie webwerf is vertaal deur Henri Theron. Vir die volledige vertaalde Afrikaanse weergawe van A Course in Miracles, you are welcome to contact Henri at: (www.nkiw.org).

Originally published by the Foundation for Inner Peace in 1975, as directed by Dr. Helen Schucman and co-author Dr. William Thetford.
With their approval, the Foundation for A Course in Miracles became the teaching branch of the Course. Both organizations faithfully followed over the years how Helen wanted her manuscript to be handled.
As a universal, self-study spiritual path, the Course teaches a unique form of forgiveness—removing the obstacles in the mind and discovering the abiding presence of love.

This website is not offered for monetary gain or donations. I do this purely out of love and conviction, because I believe that this Course contains a powerful truth that needs to be shared with everyone. It is my heart's desire to introduce this Course to anyone who wants to work with it. Say hello, send me an email at: (marnus@hemelbewus.org).
