"What I See Is a Form of Vengeance." – A Course in Miracles Workbook, Lesson 22
Where in your life do you feel like the world or someone else is against you?
In this episode of Love & Learn, we explore Lesson 22 from A Course in Miracles Workbook, which teaches that the way we see the world is a direct reflection of our own inner fears and attack thoughts. The word vengeance comes from the Latin vindicare, meaning to punish or claim justice—but in spiritual truth, the only thing being punished is ourselves when we hold onto attack thoughts.
Key Insights from Lesson 22
1. We Project What We Fear: If you believe the world is harsh and unforgiving, you will find proof of it everywhere. Our perception is not neutral—it reinforces what we already expect.
2. The Vicious Cycle of Attack Thoughts: When we see the world as full of threats, we live in defense mode, which fuels more conflict and suffering. This lesson invites us to break the cycle.
3. There’s a Way Out: The most freeing truth of this lesson is that what we fear does not actually exist—except in our minds. By choosing to see differently, we reclaim our peace.
By practicing this lesson with openness, we begin to release the illusion of attack and step into a reality shaped by love instead of fear.
Press play to explore how shifting your perception can free you from resentment, conflict, and the weight of seeing the world through a lens of vengeance.
