Book excerpt: God does not take control of our free will, but rather allows us to decide the path of our thoughts and the course of our actions. The main emphasis of this book is to train the mind to increase our awareness that God resides within each of us. Awareness of this truth is a redeeming influence on the path to peace and joy. We are given the responsibility to choose between what is truth and what is false. This is the key to our awakening. As we wake up from the false dream of our separation from God, we will escape the ravages of fear (hell) and transcend into the peace and joy (Heaven) that is available in every moment. Intellectual understanding of this truth does not bring peace and joy. They come through perceptional miracles that allow us to know that the Creator has been, and always will be, within us. The role of the mind is to help remove the blocks to that awareness. Everyone's primal yearning is to escape from fear, and as love's unifying power deepens within us, we will be liberated to extend and receive the joy of Heaven.
