I am very holy."},"content":{"rendered":"<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">1. Today\u2019s idea does not describe the way you see yourself now. \u00b2It does, however, describe what vision will show you. \u00b3It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in this world to believe this of himself. \u2074Yet the reason he thinks he is in this world is because he does not believe it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">2. You will believe that you are part of where you think you are. \u00b2That is because you surround yourself with the environment you want. \u00b3And you want it to protect the image of yourself that you have made. \u2074The image is part of this environment. \u2075What you see while you believe you are in it is seen through the eyes of the image. \u2076This is not vision. \u2077Images cannot see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">3. The idea for today presents a very different view of yourself. \u00b2By establishing your Source it establishes your Identity, and it describes you as you must really be in truth. \u00b3We will use a somewhat different kind of application for today\u2019s idea because the emphasis for today is on the perceiver, rather than on what he perceives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">4. For each of the three five-minute practice periods today, begin by repeating today\u2019s idea to yourself, and then close your eyes and search your mind for the various kinds of descriptive terms in which you see yourself. \u00b2Include all the ego-based attributes which you ascribe to yourself, positive or negative, desirable or undesirable, grandiose or debased. \u00b3All of them are equally unreal, because you do not look upon yourself through the eyes of holiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">5. In the earlier part of the mind-searching period, you will probably emphasize what you consider to be the more negative aspects of your perception of yourself. \u00b2Toward the latter part of the exercise period, however, more self-inflating descriptive terms may well cross your mind. \u00b3Try to recognize that the direction of your fantasies about yourself does not matter. \u2074Illusions have no direction in reality. \u2075They are merely not true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. A suitable unselected list for applying the idea for today might be as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>2<\/sup>I see myself as imposed on.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>3<\/sup>I see myself as depressed.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>4<\/sup>I see myself as failing.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>5<\/sup>I see myself as endangered.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>6<\/sup>I see myself as helpless.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>7<\/sup>I see myself as victorious.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>8<\/sup>I see myself as losing out.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>9<\/sup>I see myself as charitable.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>10<\/sup>I see myself as virtuous.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">7. You should not think of these terms in an abstract way. \u00b2They will occur to you as various situations, personalities and events in which you figure cross your mind. \u00b3Pick up any specific situation that occurs to you, identify the descriptive term or terms you feel are applicable to your reactions to that situation, and use them in applying today\u2019s idea. \u2074After you have named each one, add:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\"><em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<sup>5<\/sup>\u2075But my mind is part of God\u2019s. \u2076I am very holy.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">8. During the longer exercise periods, there will probably be intervals in which nothing specific occurs to you. \u00b2Do not strain to think up specific things to fill the interval, but merely relax and repeat today\u2019s idea slowly until something occurs to you. \u00b3Although nothing that does occur should be omitted from the exercises, nothing should be \u201cdug out\u201d with effort. \u2074Neither force nor discrimination should be used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">9. As often as possible during the day, pick up a specific attribute or attributes you are ascribing to yourself at the time and apply the idea for today to them, adding the idea in the form stated above to each of them. \u00b2If nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to yourself, with closed eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"width: 100%; margin: auto; text-align: center;\">\n\n  <!-- YouTube video embed -->\n  <div style=\"position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; width: 100%;\">\n    <iframe \n      src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AY6AXdw2Jlo?rel=0\"\n      title=\"YouTube video player\"\n      frameborder=\"0\"\n      allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\"\n      allowfullscreen\n style=\"position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;\">\n    <\/iframe>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <!-- Like & comment button -->\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=AY6AXdw2Jlo\" \n     target=\"_blank\" \n     style=\"       display: inline-block;        margin-top: 15px;        background-color: #1eabe4;        color: #fff;        padding: 12px 20px;        text-decoration: none;        font-weight: bold;        border-radius: 6px;        transition: background-color 0.3s ease;       width: 100%;       box-sizing: border-box;     \"\n     onmouseover=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#1594c6'\"\n     onmouseout=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#1eabe4'\">\n    \ud83d\udc4d Like &#038; Comment on YouTube\n  <\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2728 Inspired by the core message of the Course:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\"Nothing real can be threatened.
