"I Can Escape from the World I See by Giving Up Attack Thoughts." A Course in Miracles Workbook, Lesson 23

Ever feel like you have to defend yourself against others opinions, judgements, or actions toward you? In this episode of Love & Learn, we dive into Lesson 23 from A Course in Miracles Workbook For Students. This lesson shows us that our inner world—the very thoughts we choose—creates the reality we experience. By releasing attack thoughts, we reclaim the power to see and live in a world shaped by love rather than fear.


Key Insights from Lesson 23

1. Attack Thoughts Create a Vengeful World: The world we see is a reflection of our inner thoughts. If we hold attack thoughts, we will see attack everywhere.

2. We Are Not Trapped: We don’t need to change the world—we need to change our thoughts about the world. The shift happens inside us first.

3. Freedom Comes From Letting Go: By repeating the mantra—"I can escape from the world I see by giving up attack thoughts about ___________", we learn to identify and release negative patterns, opening the door to inner peace and a more compassionate perspective. We don’t have to fight. We can simply step aside and choose love instead.


Reflection Questions:

  • In what areas of my life do I feel attacked or hold attack thoughts?
  • Are these thoughts directed inward, toward others, or both?
  • Am I willing to release my need to be right in favor of inner peace?

Press play to explore how shifting your perception by letting go of attack thoughts can transform not just your inner world, but the entire reality you experience.
