It's Quite An Amazing Experience To See

When You're Operating On Uninvestigated Theories Of What's Going On And You Aren't Even Aware Of It, You're In What I Call "the Dream." Often The Dream Becomes Troubling; Sometimes It Even Turns Into A Nightmare. At Times Like These, You May Want To Test The Truth Of Your Theories By Doing The Work On Them. The Work Always Leaves You With Less Of Your Uncomfortable Story. Who Would You Be Without It? How Much Of Your World Is Made Up Of Unexamined Stories? You'll Never Know Until You Inquire.

Sometimes The Concept You're Questioning Makes More Sense To Ask Just The Second One And Not The First One.

One Morning In February 1986, Out Of Nowhere, I Experienced A Realization. In An Instant, I Discovered That When I Believed My Stressful Thoughts, I Suffered, But When I Questioned Them, I Didn't Suffer.

So, How Can We Live In Joy - And How Can We Know That We're Supposed To Live In Joy The Way People Tell Us To - When We're Believing Thoughts That Bring On Sadness And Frustration And Anger And Alienation And Loneliness? When We're Believing Those Thoughts, We Think That's The World, Rather Than What We're Believing About The World. We're Like Lost Little Children.

Each Time Your Mind Changes Your Whole World Is Changed.
