You Only See Yourself, Do You Like What You See?

Seeing is always an activity of internal self-knowledge. In order to perceive anything or anyone, we must first have a base knowledge and understanding of what we recognize - internally within ourselves.
For if we do not have this base understanding within, then we won't have the capacity for recognizing it and seeing it outside of us.
That's why when our God created this world we experience, He looked over all that was created and made, and saw, declared - "Behold, it is very Good!"
How could it not be good? He saw Himself in His creation. He saw a reflection of His own Good internal Nature.
I love the Bible verse, Isaiah 6:3 that states - "....the whole earth is full of His Glory." Because it is. And the same is (lower case) true for us.
We are only ever seeing what we believe to be true of our own internal nature. We're seeing our judgments, biases, and self-ideating concepts in this world and about those we think we see.
The Bible says this in Matthew 6:22-23, The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
This is a profound Truth to really understand. If the contents of your heart, how you see yourself are good, then your whole outer experience, reality, what you see in your world will be good and full of that light. But if your heart, how your see yourself, the contents of your consciousness be darkened with guilt, shame, self-hatred, limitation, and lack of true Self knowledge, then how you see others and your world will reflect your nature.
When we understand this, we are no longer imprisoned by how others view us, nor their judgments because we understand that they are only speaking those things about themselves. They're speaking the contents of "their own" consciousness.
The Holy Spirit inspired King David to write in the book of Psalm 18: 24-26, that God reflects to people their own character and truth.
But lets take this one step further, let's insert people, the world and things, in place of God. If God reflects us, can it not be true that's the case with everything else?
We don't see people nor this world as they are, instead, we see it how WE ARE. May you see me as beautiful, innocent, pure, whole, and complete. Because that's what I AM and therefore, I know that's who YOU ARE. Namaste.
