In answer to the question, "Is anything real of which the physical senses are cognizant?" Mary Baker Eddy writes (Unity of Good, p. 8): "Everything is as real as you make it, and no more so. What you see, hear, feel, is a mode of consciousness, and can have no other reality than the sense you entertain of it." Consequently every individual, whether aware of it or not, is unfolding his sense of the universe after the manner of his own thinking, according to his acceptance or rejection of what is real or unreal. As a small boy once remarked, "We see our own thinks."
To be ever conscious of Truth is to be never conscious of error. Since everything we see is a "mode of consciousness," as our Leader writes, we perceive that what we are conscious of, what we admit as true in consciousness, determines our environment, our health, our wealth, and our world.
God's universe is good, and in complete balance in the economy of being, nothing is left out, nothing is lost or missing. This universe, the only universe, is perfect, spiritual, whole. Fulfillment is the law of God's universe, and satisfaction goes hand in hand with the unfolding of orderly and consecrated activity of good.
