How to Stop Mind Chatter
The ego mind is a weapon of mass distraction. Distraction is destruction, when it comes to peace of mind. That’s why it’s imperative to learn how to stop mind chatter.
Peace of Mind is God-Thought — a Oneness joined as One. Absolute God-Thought does not contain words or images, shapes or forms, time or space; It just Is. It is Life — Unborn, Undying Being.
Ego-thinking, on the other hand, is a dreamer of a false identity within God-Mind. It is an attempt to split and limit what is Unified and Limitless. It is imaginative but not Creative. The descent from Oneness to personal identity contains layers of veils to prevent you from remembering your True Self.
“Never allow purity to remain hidden, but shine away the heavy veils of guilt within which the Son of God has hidden himself from his own sight.” (T-14.V.4:4)
How do we nip ego-mind chatter in the bud?
Jesus tells us as early as Chapter 3, “You are much too tolerant of mind wandering, and are passively condoning your mind’s miscreations.” And in Lesson 43, he says, “Do not allow any protracted period to occur in which you become preoccupied with irrelevant thoughts.”
It is a turning point when you are able to catch irrelevant thoughts and use mind chatter as a reminder to choose again. The tool Jesus provides in Lesson 43 is to repeat, “God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him.” It is one of countless expressions of God choices. You can simply say, “Holy Spirit, help me!” or “I am Spirit” or “God, God, God.”
I’ve found that a powerful alternative that fits perfectly with A Course in Miracles is to use Sanskrit, which is primarily a vibrationally-based language and only secondarily meaning-based. For a better understanding of what I mean by this and how it works, watch Prescription for Inner Peace.
