The world is nothing (and everything) until I believe something onto it.
Consider this box:
Is it a box before I think it’s a box?
Does it remain a box after I question if it’s really a box?
Assuming I choose to see it as a box…
Which face of the box is closer to me, the upper left or the lower right?
A) Neither
B) Both
C) Whichever one I think it is
D) All of the above
Every answer is potentially true.
Every answer is potentially false.
It all depends on what I’m thinking and believing.
If I think and believe the lower right face is closer to me, I see it that way. If I think and believe the upper left face is closer to me, I see it that way.
Immediately.
And when I do, I find that it was always possible to see it that way, I just didn’t see it that way before. There is no “correct” outside reality to it. It is completely a manifestation of my inside thinking about it.
All of life is that way.
Everything is whole until I think something. When I believe what I think about the world, everything instantly becomes whatever I think it is and it stays that way as long as I think it. And when I think about it differently, it instantly shifts in accordance with my shifted thinking.
The world is my state of mind, experienced.
