“I and My Father Are One”

Joel Goldsmith writes: “Rightly speaking, there is not God and you, but God is ever manifest as you.” (The Infinite Way; pg. 102.)

His philosophy or religion goes somewhat beyond the positivist, mystical Christianity of other twentieth-century spiritual thinkers to assert that our difficulties in this life are always and only a matter of our seeing or thinking mistakenly. If we are in fear, or pain, or remorse; if we are ill or depressed; if we are not happy and at peace, it is because we are perceiving incorrectly, or holding on to false beliefs about the nature of our lives. What is not perfect is an error of understanding. If we are able to see clearly we will know that we are part of the eternal perfection and that all is well, everywhere, now and forever.
