A Course In Miracles Lesson 34: Exercise (I Could See Peace Instead Of This)

You will yet learn that peace is part of you. Peace of mind is clearly an inter­nal matter. It must begin with your own thoughts and then extend outward. It is from your peace of mind that a peaceful perception of the world arises. Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists.

Welcome to Active Meditation A Course in Miracles,

Lesson 34 I could see peace instead of this.

I could see peace instead of this.

Search your mind for fear thoughts,

Anxiety-provoking situations,

Offending personalities or events,

Or anything else about which you are harboring unloving thoughts.

Note them all casually.

Say to yourself,

I could see peace instead of this.

Repeat this slowly as you watch the thoughts arise in your mind.

Then let each one go to be replaced by the next.

I'll be quiet while you do this.

I could see peace instead of this.

If the inroads on your peace of mind take the form of more generalized adverse emotions,

Such as depression,

Anxiety,

Or worry,

Use the idea in its original form.

Try to take several minutes and devote them to repeating the idea until you feel some sense of relief.

Tell yourself specifically,

I can replace my feelings of depression,

Anxiety,

Or worry,

Or my thoughts about this situation,

Personality,

Or event with peace.

Review a current or recent state of mind in which your peace of mind was or is threatened.

Say,

In your mind,

I can replace these feelings,

Or I can replace these thoughts with peace.

Do this now.

I could see peace instead of this.

I can replace my feelings.

I could see peace instead of this.

I can replace my feelings.

I can replace my thoughts about this situation with peace.

I could see peace instead of this.

And as we return to time and space,

We acknowledge,

I am aware.

I am.

Nothing real can be threatened.

Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the peace of God.
