Understanding Cause and Effect; Guilt and Miscreation. By David Hoffmeister

Question: I realize that your body does not create, but I don't recognize that "the mind can miscreate in the body.” Is this another way of saying that fearful thoughts create disease in the body?

Thanks for your questions. Yes, you are on the right track. It can be believed erroneously that the mind can miscreate in the body, and this is the try to project guilt onto the body. But because ideas leave not their source, it's the sleeping mind which continues to retain the guilt. Before sleeping mind forgives it cannot "get rid of" guilt. best a course in miracles podcasts Through the try to project guilt the mind keeps it. Projection is just a defense mechanism through that the ego keeps the mind feeling guilty.

A typical example of believing that your body can miscreate in the mind could be the belief that behaviors and actions can harm the mind. The thoughts: "your behavior has harmed your son's mind" or "those violent behaviors for the reason that TV show can harm your child's mind" are two types of this. Behavior is never causative, being a bi-product of thought. What you do originates from everything you think. The lesson of forgiveness teaches that only mind is causative and that mind cannot create beyond itself. Mind reaches to itself. It generally does not go out. Within itself is everything, you within it and it within you. There is nothing else. Atonement shows that you are a Divine Mind, wholly Mind, and Purely Mind. You remain forever an Idea in the Mind of God.
