There is no doubt that the thinking mind creates.

Maybe the question of the origin of things is mute and has no value, for we can certainly live our lives without knowing whether things are eternal and have always existed or things had a beginning since we certainly do exist and do create through the use of our minds and thoughts.

We enter a world we didn’t create and through our thoughts we take of its substance and create a world according to our thoughts.

At the end of our lives we look back and are able to see that we created our experiences (along with others).

The most profound thing we can learn (among many other profound things) is that to expand our consciousness we must dump the programming, indoctrination and brainwashing that we were impregnated with by our families, relatives, friends, religions, cultures, societies, governments, politics, philosophies and economics ((which formed our personal and world views) and start over. To expand consciousness you must clear your mental field, your consciousness, the things you think or believe or have faith are true, and determine truth, through experience, for yourself, rather than believe, or believe others.

If you haven’t experienced it personally, you don’t know.

It is important not to confuse hope, belief, faith and feelings with knowing.

Hope, belief, faith and feelings are tools to guide you to experiences that give you knowledge, but they are not substitutes for knowledge.
