I never see what is here

In a course in Miracles on day 9 the thought for the day is: I see nothing as it is now.

Modern cognitive science has shown that when light hits one’s retina, about one-tenth of a second goes by before the brain translates the signal into a visual perception of the world. So the course as I have written before is literally true.

Scientists already knew about the lag, yet they have debated over exactly how we compensate, with one school of thought proposing our motor system somehow modifies our movements to offset the delay.

Latest research has demonstrated our visual system has evolved to compensate for neural delays, generating images of what will occur one-tenth of a second into the future. That foresight keeps our view of the world in the present. It gives one enough heads up to catch a fly ball (instead of getting socked in the face) and maneuver smoothly through a crowd or drive a car. It is this same predictive “imagineering” which causes many optical illusions. Basically our brains fill up whatever is not there but should be there to form a gestalt. Thus if you have a broken triangle with one apex missing and we project the image onto a person’s retina such that the missing apex is at the blind spot the brain fills the missing part and imagines in a full unbroken triangle.

Similarly when we hypnotize a person and give a post hypnotic suggestion to say open a window at a given trigger, the person takes the action but justifies it by a making up a story like the room was warm. even more impressive is that if we use hypnosis to negatively hallucinate an identical used stamp (of course there are minor differences because of the franking postal marks) and we suggest the person does not see the center stamp by pointing at it and giving a suggestion such as, “You will not see this stamp wherever it is". Now we move the stamp to the left stamp. The subject does not see the left stamp. Thus in fact the person has to see the stamp more clearly than in normal waking consciousness in order not to see it.

So as A Course In Miracles writes:

I see nothing as it is now.
