ACCURATE THINKING 721You will be unfortunate indeed if you find there no children that
were born of love, justice, truth, and kindness toward others.
In the light of this allegorical suggestion, the subject of Accurate
Thinking takes on a new and much more important aspect, doesn't
it? If there is a possibility that every thought you release during this
life will step out to greet you after death, then you need no further
reason for guarding all your thoughts carefully.
The term accurate thought, as used in this lesson, refers to thought
that is of your own creation. Thought that comes to you from others,
through either suggestion or direct statement, is not accurate thought
within the meaning and purpose of this lesson, although it may be
thought that is based on facts.
I can take you no further in this lesson on Accurate Thinking.
However, you have not yet gone the entire distance; you have only
just started. From here on you must be your own guide. But if you
have understood the great truth upon which this lesson is founded,
you will not have difficulty finding your own way.
Let me caution you again, however, not to become discouraged if
the fundamental truth of this lesson has not become clear to you at
first reading. This is the one lesson of the entire course that cannot
be fully assimilated by the beginner through one reading. You will gain
the knowledge only through thought, reflection, and meditation. For
this reason you are instructed to read this lesson at least four times, at
intervals of one week apart.
It may require weeks or even months of meditation for you to fully
comprehend, but this truth is worth working for.
You are also instructed to again read Lesson One, so that you may
better understand the law of the Master Mind and the relationship
between that law and the subjects covered by this lesson on Accurate
Thinking. The Master Mind is the principle through which you may
become an accurate thinker.
