The Infinite Mind

[Maat]

This came in my "UCRS Daily Affirmations" and I liked it:

"God and I are one; in everything I do, my divine atmosphere goes before me, making straight and perfect my way. I enjoy clear thinking, clear knowing, and I understand that my own inner power impresses the infinite Mind as I think. My life unfolds beautifully, all things falling into place, just as they should."

I like the idea of "the Infinite Mind ." That's how I imagine "God," as both an energy and an Infinite Mind. My hubby jokingly calls "It" "the Unimind ."

I like the idea, from "Conversations with God," by Walshe, that this Infinite Energy was bored and divided itself up. Each one of us is a "segment" if you will, and our job is "to experience," with Spirit not being judgmental. So, we have to analyze "sin" or "a messup" as a mistake, straying from the path towards our goal.

What do you think? Is the Power within You?

1. Absolutely.

That daily affirmation describes my understanding of "God" perfectly, and makes a great morning meditation.

2. It's calming me down - making me positive.

Blessings to you!

3. Yes

and I loved what you wrote. Pir-o-Murshid Hazrat Inayat Khan said that we are like a drop of water from the ocean, rising up with the wave; we are the ocean, the ocean is us. This is my analogy of the Infinite Mind.

4. Amen. Sounds very Hindu,

yet very Democratic. "You have the power to take your country back."-Howard Dean
The power is God!

5. YES

although sometimes I wonder if I am trying to push the river...

6. What does it mean to push the river?

[musette_sf]

7. it flows by itself

so needs no pushing. Our egos tell us to push, though.
