PRESCRIPTION LENSES


VISION
comes
not from the eyes
but from the mind

IF
the mind be SINGLE
the AWARENESS of GOD
prevails



Most are familiar with the concept that “truth” is different for everyone.  “Truth” being perceived differently is without question, but TRUTH is ONE and forever remains the same.  

Whether or not our eyes require vision correction, our minds come fully-equipped with their own unique “prescription lenses”, where we attempt to bring into focus an understanding of our unique life experience.  Little do we realize that these lenses actually distort our vision, rather than clarify it.   More troubling is the fact that if the decision is not made to jettison these lenses altogether, the prescription just keeps changing.

The components that make up our prescription are too many to mention, far exceeding the elements of this life alone, but all are rooted in our own individuality--that which defines each from the other, and holds great meaning in our minds.  The trouble with this equation is that it does not add up.  Who we ARE is not the sum total of all our experiences, but something that transcends them all.  Our prescription lenses merely obscure the TRUTH of ONENESS that is the result of PERFECT VISION.

Our vision correction will only result when we jettison our prescription lenses, and SEE the TRUTH as ONE.
