Pattern Four . - Lesson 2
Learning Wholeness
Lesson 2: Choosing
Through daily exercise and thought, you have come to believe the wonderful truth that you can be healed of every limitation, that you can be renewed, cleansed, and made whole in every way. By believing, you are following your spiritual inclination toward infinite wisdom and infinite good. And as you reach out with all your being toward a fuller realization of wholeness, you begin to let go of any thoughts and conditions that do not reflect this ideal.
You can no longer accept any pain, any anxiety, any lack as the best that life has to offer, for you know that life offers you perfect wholeness. Anything less than perfect wholeness is only a part of life. Once you have accepted the challenge of seeking true happiness and fulfillment, you cannot settle for less. Ask your inner self, "Can I be healed of any imperfection?" You know from the truth you have learned and experienced that there is no true reason why you cannot be made perfectly whole. The answer comes, "I can be made whole in every perfect way." Through believing, through right choice and active faith, "I can" becomes "I am."
The process of healing begins when your mind is made ready for healing. You begin with "I believe"; you work with your thinking and feeling so that you reach "I know"; and then the process begins to manifest as "I am." You believe in healing, in perfection, as your natural state. You are working with ideas so that you can begin to know the real truth about yourself. This truth is becoming a part of your thinking and feeling. As wholeness becomes a reality in your life you know and manifest the Truth: "I am whole."
You know that you are not reaching toward a mere "dream" of health or a shaky possibility of true wholeness and well-being. You are reaching toward a dynamic reality, an actual state of existence that you can bring into your awareness and that can be made manifest in your life. You are reaching toward an ideal.
Charles Fillmore defined ideal as "a mental pattern of perfection" (The Revealing Word). You can realize and manifest an ideal-you can hold a mental pattern of perfection-because back of all the changing conditions of your life, back of all the appearances about you, back of all the countless impressions of your mind lies the absolute perfection of Spirit. By believing with love and expectation, you are making ready for the realization of this ideal.
You know that realizing an ideal involves a great challenge. Strength and discipline as well as faith and love are needed. Ideals of equality, freedom, honor, achievement, beauty, goodness, purity, and peace have held the imagination and inspired the activities of mankind throughout all time. Yet no ideal is more challenging, heroic, or inspiring than the ideal of absolute wholeness for which you are reaching now.
Take a moment now to close your eyes and let the thought of perfect wholeness inspire you. Imagine yourself completely whole and perfect physically, mentally, and in all your affairs. See yourself strong and ready right now to do great things!
This is truly a heroic idea. As you hold to this idea, instantly you sit up straighter and you tend to look at things in a more lofty and courageous way. You are ready to know and do great things!
