Nothing I see in this room (on this street, from this window, in this place) means anything.

Now look slowly around you, and practice applying this idea very specifically to whatever you see:

This table does not mean anything.

This chair does not mean anything.

This hand does not mean anything.

This foot does not mean anything.

This pen does not mean anything.

Then look farther away from your immediate area, and apply the idea to a wider range:
That door does not mean anything.
That body does not mean anything.
That lamp does not mean anything.
That sign does not mean anything.
That shadow does not mean anything.

Notice that these statements are not arranged in any order and make no allowance for differences in the kinds of things to which they are applies. That is the purpose of the exercise. The statement should merely be applied to anything you see. As you practice the idea for the day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do not attempt to apply it to everything you see, for these exercises should not become ritualistic. Only be sure that nothing you see is specifically excluded. One thing is like another as far as the application of the idea is concerned.
Each of the three lessons should not be done more than twice a day each, preferably in the morning and evening. Nor should they be attempted for more than a minute or so, unless that entails a sense of hurry. A comfortable sense of leisure is essential.

Personal Notes: This exercise has been good for me to reflect back on many times over the past 2 years as a reminder to me not to hold preconceived ideas of what or who something is or what it’s purpose is, not to bring past identifications in to the present but to stay open to Holy Spirit to show me the newness of today, God’s plan and purpose for me and all things. To enter a state of newness and creativity as one with the Creator and creation.
