Question:
What are magic thoughts?
Answer:
Jesus speaks of magic in "A Course in Miracles" as anything in form that is given healing belief. In practical terms you may think of medicine, exercise or treatments of the body as different forms of magic. Jesus teaches that all healing is of the mind. But if you are too frightened to accept healing of the mind, at times a mixture of magic and miracles is necessary.
So medicine could be thought of as a temporary device that will bring temporary relief until you learn to accept the healing of the Holy Spirit. Magic is not thought of as evil. It is just used until the mind is ready to accept the miracle. The severity of the sickness does not matter. Miracles bring healing to depression and psychological states of mind, and also encompass the removal of symptoms from the body. The main teaching is of releasing attack thoughts and grievances, for these are what produce all forms of disease. All illness is mental illness. All healing is of the mind.
Love,
David
