落选的“可能”们都去了哪儿

摘自《灵魂永生》第十六章
 可能性系统，人和神

在你日常生活的任何一刻，你都有无数行动去选择，有些微不足道，有些极其重要。比如，你可以选择打喷嚏或不打喷嚏，咳嗽或不咳嗽，走向窗子或走向门，挠挠你的手肘，搭救一个落水的孩子，受到教训，自杀，伤害别人，或忍受侮辱。

看上去，现实世界似乎是由你所选择的那些行动组成的。那些你选择否认的就被忽略了，于是没有选择踏上的道路似乎是个“非行动”，但是，每个念头都实现了，每个可能性都开发了。物质实相看起来好像是由一连串的实质行动所构成。因为这是你对实相世界的惯常判断标准，那么非实质的行动便常常逃过了你的注意、斟酌和判断。

举个例子，在你看这本书时，电话响了。有个朋友想要在五点钟和你见面，你站在那儿考虑这件事。在你心中，你看到自己（一）拒绝并留在家里，（二）拒绝而去别处，（三）接受并按时赴约。这时，所有这些可能的行动都有一个实相世界，它们都有可能被具体实现。在你作出决定之前，每一个可能的行动都同样是可行的。你选择了其中之一，这个决定使三者之一成为具体事件。这件事恰当地被你接受为一连串正常生活事件的一部分。

但是，其他的可能行动仍旧可行，虽然你并没选择让它们具体实现，它们还是与你选择接受的那件事一样有效地实行了。如果在某个被拒的可能行动背后有很强烈的情感负荷，它甚至比你所选择的那个行动有更大的确实性。

所有的行为最初都是精神性行为。这是实相的本质。这句话再怎么强调也不为过。因此，所有的精神性行为都有确实性。它们的存在不容否认。

因为你不把这些行为当作实质事件来接受，所以你无法感知其力量与持久性。不过，对这种行为缺乏感知，并不能破坏它们的有效性。如果你想做医生，而现在却在干另一行，那么在某一个实相世界里，你就是个医生。如果你的才能在此没有用到，它们会在别处用到的。

再次强调，这些概念似乎浓得让你们的精神血液无法接受，因为你们已习惯线性思维模式和三维观念。

In your' daily life at any given moment of your time, you have a multitudinous choice of actions, some trivial and some of utmost importance. You may, for example, sneeze or not sneeze, cough or not cough, walk to the window or the door, scratch your elbow, save a child from drowning, learn a lesson, commit suicide, harm another, or turn your cheek.

It seems to you that reality is composed of those actions that you choose to take. Those that you choose to deny are ignored. The road not taken then seems to be a non-act. Yet every thought is actualized and every possibility explored. Physical reality is constructed from what seems to be a series of physical acts. Since this is the usual criterion of reality for you. then nonphysical acts usually escape your notice, discretion, and judgment.

(9:30.) Let us take an example. You are reading this book when the telephone lings. A friend wants you to meet him at five o?clock. You stand considering. In your mind you see yourself (A) saying no and staying home. (B) saying no and going somewhere else instead, or (C) saying yes and keeping the engagement. Now all of these possible actions have a reality at that point. They are all capable of being actualized in physical terms. Before you make your decision, each of these probable actions are equally valid. You choose one of these, and by your decision you make one event out of the three physical. This event is duly accepted as a portion of those serial happenings that compose your normal existence.

The other probable actions, however, are as valid as they ever were, though you have not chosen to actualize them physically. They are carried out as effectively as the one you chose to accept. If there was a strong emotional charge behind one of the rejected probable actions, it may even have greater validity as an act than the one you chose.

All actions are initially mental acts. This is the nature of reality. That sentence cannot be emphasized too thoroughly. All mental acts therefore are valid. They exist and cannot be negated.

Because you do not accept them all as physical events, you do not perceive their strength or durability. Your lack of perception cannot destroy their validity, however. If you wanted to be a doctor and are now in a different profession, then in some other probable reality you are a doctor. If you have abilities that you are not using here, they are being used elsewhere.

Now, again, these ideas may seem impossibly rich for your mental blood because of your propensity toward serial thought and three-dimensional attitudes.
