What thought system do we align our minds with? We choose to align our mind with either the egoic thought system or the Mind of God, the One Mind.
Neither the One nor the ego proposes a partial thought system. Each is internally consistent, but they are diametrically opposed in all respects so that partial allegiance is impossible. Remember, too, that their results are as different as their foundations, and their fundamentally irreconcilable natures cannot be reconciled by vacillations between them. T-11.Intro.1.3-5
Is it any wonder we sometimes feel insane as we vacillate between thought systems? It’s our choice at any given moment which thought system we align our minds with. Thus, it’s our choice whether we want to be insane or sane!
God invested all in us in our creation. We are the cornerstone of God’s Creation. Creation is built on who we really are. The One Mind is the Mind we are created in and as. The One Mind is our true thought system. And that thought system is light. It is whole and complete. It needs nothing more and its condition is joy. And even when we block our awareness of our true mind, the Great Rays are there yet unseen. Even in our futile attempts to separate our lower mind from our One Mind, a spark remains. A glimpse of the Great Rays remains shining in our minds, for we can never really separate from our true Identity. Enough shines through our barriers to remind us of who we really are and let us remember our joy. We can simply turn our allegiance to this spark and hold it up to the darkness we think we see and let it shine away the dark and temporal cornerstone of the egoic thought system. We will see that what we have made up is nothing at all and that it fades into meaninglessness in the shining light of our true thought system, the One Mind.
The Course offers us this promise:
My friend, you are part of the One and part of me. When you have at last looked at the ego’s foundation without shrinking you will also have looked upon ours. I come to you from our Creator to offer you everything again. Do not refuse it in order to keep a dark cornerstone hidden, for its protection will not save you. I give you the lamp and I will go with you. You will not take this journey alone. I will lead you to your true Creator, Who hath need of you, as I have. Will you not answer the call of love with joy? T-11.Intro.4.1-8
Let this promise fill your true mind, the One Mind. The fullness of Oneness will be where you find yourself in Oneness with all Creation. Allow yourself to be the Light and Love you truly are.
