Do you believe everything you think?


As we have already emphasized, every idea begins in the mind of the thinker. Therefore, what extends from the mind is still in it, and from what it extends it knows itself. T-6.III.1:1-2

The saying is “Perception is reality.” The bumper stickers are “Don’t believe everything you think,” and “Reality does not care anything about what you think.” However our thoughts influence our experience and our behavior. Thoughts are very powerful. They can be changed if the thinker is aware of their power of choice.


In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the free and responsible search for truth and meaning which can lead to an examination of our thoughts. What are they and to what extent do they serve us well?


Today it is suggested that we consider to what extent do we believe and find helpful the things we think?
