What keeps the world in chains but your beliefs? And what can save the world except your Self? Belief is powerful indeed.The thoughts you hold are mighty, and illusions are as strong in their effects as is the truth.A madman thinks the world he sees is real and does not doubt it. Nor can he be swayed by questioning his thoughtsâ?? effects. It is but when their source is raised to question that the hope of freedom comes to him at last. Yet is salvation easily achieved, for anyone is free to change his mind, and all his thoughts change with it. Now the source of thought has shifted, for to change your mind means you have changed the source of all ideas you think or ever thought or yet will think. You free the past from what you thought before.You free the future from all ancient thoughts of seeking what you do not want to find.The present now remains the only time. Here in the present is the world set free. For as you let the past be lifted and release the future from your ancient fears, you find escape and give it to the world. You have enslaved the world with all your fears, with doubts and miseries, your pain and tears, and all your sorrows press upon it and keep it a prisoner to your beliefs. Death strikes it everywhere because you hold the bitter thought of death within your mind.The world is nothing in itself. Your mind must give it meaning. And what you behold upon it are your wishes, acted out so you can look on them and think them real. Perhaps you think you did not make the world, but came unwillingly to what was made already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning.Yet in truth you found exactly what you looked for when you came.There is no world apart from what you wish, and herein lies your ultimate release. Change but your mind on what you want to see, and all the world must change accordingly. Ideas leave not their source.This central theme is often stated in the text, and must be borne in mind if you would understand the lesson for today.It is not pride which tells you that you made the world you see, and that it changes as you change your mind. But it is pride
