Things don’t mean things. Lesson 3.
So first you tell me that in this room nothing means anything—unless I give it meaning. (And so I concede the point: I look at that painting because you painted it, I like tonic because I used to love gin—I am drawn to what is familiar to me, to things that remind me of my experiences.) But now you tell me that the only way to leave this place is to convince myself that I truly don’t understand anything in here.
You tell me that to stay in this room is death. To escape, you say, I’ve got to shed my instincts and stop making sense from the things that I can see and touch, as if today were the first day of my life.
What’s on the other side of that door?
This week, the Miracles in Manhattan Podcast team takes on Lesson 3 of A Course in Miracles...and other matters. Talking points include:.
Understanding is human. Unknowing is divine The only dangerous cup Tenderly curated foul language Blindfolds and baking bread: Stephanie on sexual healing “I don’t know,” or how to save the world with just 3 words Need a friend? Ask for the impossible! Undating the minor poets of New York When you meet the Buddha, make strange A skinny, 6’ tall, mom in the Sahara: meet the bravest firefighter Not weird enough: Marco meets his match This machine kills fascists: becoming-blank slate “I’m not a woman, but if I were…” A problematic thought experiment Your okayest life
