S3 E61 Through the Eyes of Awe (3 Nephi 1-7)
The Scriptures Are Real
Perception Shapes Reality
Our perception of the world is greatly influenced by our inner disposition. A suspicious nature leads to a worldview filled with mistrust, while a purely scientific perspective reduces spiritual experiences to mere physiological events. Conversely, a positive and joyful outlook opens up a lens through which life and spirituality are viewed more favorably. Astonishment is not just a technique for positive thinking, but rather the fundamental truth that life, God, and the plan of salvation are inherently good. By fostering a perspective filled with faith and love, we connect with deeper truths and realities. Even renowned intellectuals, like Einstein, found that a better understanding of the universe heightened their perception of the divine, illustrating that clarity in understanding can lead to a richer, more profound experience of existence.
