they are all equally disturbing to my peace of mind. I am never upset for the reason I think. I am never angry, fearful, worried, depressed, anxious, jealous or hateful for the reason I think. The above are all manifestations of something other, something that is not a part of my Essence, so the task is to recognize and strip away those things which are "other" and allow the real me to come through... I cannot keep one form of upset and let the others go, so I am going to regard all upsets as the same, recognize that they are not authentic, and move on.
Again, I'm not advocating anything other than straight up Christianity -- following Jesus Christ and His message of Good News, of Salvation for all humanity. I go through these spiritual exercises from A Course In Miracles because I believe the Spirit, like any other part of the person, must be exercised to grow and mature. These meditations are a series of guided spiritual exercises. Just as I want to exercise my body for the rest of my life, I also want to exercise my spirit for the rest of my life.
