Spiritual Thinking makes us free from the fallacies of illusion.
Psalms 119:37
Help me turn my eyes away from illusions so that I pursue only that which is true; drench my soul with life as I walk in your paths.
Romans 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing, you may discern God’s will and what is good and acceptable and perfect.
John 8:32
And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
Richard Bach
You are led through your lifetime by the inner learning creature, the playful spiritual being that is your real self.
Marguerite Young
When you have examined all the illusions of life and know that there isn’t any reality, you nevertheless go on; you are a mature human who accepts the idea that it is all mask and illusion and that people are in disguise. You see the crumble.
What is the illusion we are talking about? In an earlier post, I discussed unrealities and realities: Reality(Truth) and Unrealities (Illusions):

Let us see if we can elaborate a bit on that. The simplest example is pitch darkness.
If we are in absolute pitch darkness and try to walk, we become very ccautiouscially if we are unfamiliar with the surroundings. We are afraid that we might stumble onto some object, fall into a hole, etc. If we light a candle, we can see and find that what we felt in the darkness was only an imagination. The little candle could eliminate the darkness. So darkness is unreality, light is a reality, and darkness cannot hide it.
Whereas the sun is always shining, the Earth is rotating on its axis; at night, we only experience a shadow because the Sun is shining on the opposite side of the earth. Just like when we are standing in the sun and seeing our own shadow, which follows us everywhere, it does not make it real. Likewise, an image in the mirror is not accurate. Looking at our everyday life, we go through many illusions like that. Divine Mind created us in his image and likeness; we are expected to feel excellent and acceptable. If we get sick with the flu, we feel miserable, ache all over, and are in a bad mood. However, when we get well, we are back to our usual selves and OK. So disease, as the word implies, is a state of not being at ease and can only temporarily exist. We still go through a bad experiences because we believe in them. When we are angry, we become emotional and irrational and even might hurt someone because we believe in anger. These are manifestations of unrealities and are exploited in our modern life by everyone. A doctor wants his patients to think about all made-up illnesses because he can make a living trying to cure something that is not in the first place. A lawyer likewise wants to be afraid of being s; an insurance company wants you to be scared of an accident, Government wants you to be fearful of its power, taxes, etc.; our modern system is based on illusions and keeps the economies growing based on Fearon fellow can we live in peace and happiness while conforming to social standards for survival? That? is where Spiritual Thinking is so helpful.
God, the Divine Mind, Brahman, not only created us in his image and likeness but is also present in each of us as a whole and is available to help us all the time. All we have to do is ask for His help. How do we do that? We have to remind ourselves that God is all in all constantly, and he is the creator, cause, and effect of everything that happens in the Universe and our life. Next, to reach Him, we pray and focus on Him and His power through Affirmations and prayer. When we do that, our human thoughts are synchronized with the Divine Mind in us, and we get His input on our actions. I have discussed the process in an earlier post: Affirmations and Prayer, an essential component of Divine Mind synchronization:

When we practice this kind of thinking is called Spiritual Thinking, we find ourselves enjoying it. Peace, harmony, and happiness all the time. Thus Spiritual Thinking makes us free from the fallacies of illusion.
