0:00feeling is the secret
0:02by Neville Goddard
0:04this audio presentation is brought to
0:06you by secret knowledge
0:10chapter one
0:12law and its operation
0:14the world and all within it is man's
0:17conditioned consciousness objectified
0:20Consciousness is the cause as well as
0:22the substance of the entire world
0:25so it is to Consciousness that we must
0:28turn if we would discover the secret of
0:30creation
0:31knowledge of the law of Consciousness
0:33and the method of operating this law
0:35will enable you to accomplish all you
0:37desire in life
0:39armed with a working knowledge of this
0:41law you can build and maintain an Ideal
0:43World
0:44Consciousness is the one and only
0:46reality not figuratively but actually
0:50this reality made for the sake of
0:52clarity be likened unto a stream which
0:54is divided into two parts the conscious
0:57and the subconscious
0:59in order to intelligently operate the
1:01law of Consciousness it is necessary to
1:04understand the relationship between the
1:06conscious and the subconscious
1:08the conscious is personal and selective
1:11the subconscious is impersonal and
1:13non-selective
1:15the conscious is the realm of effect the
1:18subconscious is the realm of cause
1:20these two aspects are the male and
1:23female divisions of consciousness
1:25the conscious is male the subconscious
1:28is female
1:29the conscious generates ideas and
1:32impresses these ideas on the
1:33subconscious the subconscious receives
1:36ideas and gives form an expression to
1:38them
1:39by this law first conceiving an idea and
1:42then impressing the idea conceived on
1:44the subconscious all things evolve out
1:46of Consciousness and without this
1:48sequence there is not anything made that
1:51is made
1:52the conscious impresses the subconscious
1:54while the subconscious expresses all
1:57that is impressed upon it
1:59the subconscious does not originate
2:01ideas but accepts as true those which
2:03the conscious mind feels to be true and
2:05in a way known only to itself
2:08objectifies the accepted ideas
2:11therefore through his power to imagine
2:13and feel and his freedom to choose the
2:15idea he will entertain man has control
2:18over creation
2:20control of the subconscious is
2:22accomplished through control of your
2:24ideas and feelings
2:25the mechanism of creation is hidden in
2:28the very depth of the subconscious the
2:30female aspect or womb of creation
2:33the subconscious transcends reason and
2:36is independent of induction
2:38it contemplates a feeling as a fact
2:40existing within itself and on this
2:42assumption proceeds to give expression
2:44to it
2:45the creative process begins with an idea
2:48and its cycle runs its course as a
2:50feeling and ends in a volition to act
2:53ideas are impressed on the subconscious
2:55through the medium of feeling
2:58no idea can be impressed on the
3:00subconscious until it is felt but once
3:03felt be it good bad or indifferent it
3:06must be expressed
3:08feeling is the one and only medium
3:10through which ideas are conveyed to the
3:12subconscious
3:14therefore the man who does not control
3:16his feeling May easily impress the
3:18subconscious with undesirable States
3:21by control of feeling is not meant
3:24restraint or suppression of your feeling
3:25but rather the disciplining of self to
3:28imagine and entertain only such feeling
3:30as contributes to your happiness
3:33control of your feeling is all important
3:35to a full and happy life
3:37never entertain an undesirable feeling
3:40nor think sympathetically about wrong in
3:43any shape or form
3:45do not dwell on the imperfection of
3:47yourself or others
3:49to do so is to impress the subconscious
3:51with these limitations
3:54what you do not want done unto you do
3:56not feel that it is done unto you or
3:58another
4:00this is the whole law of a full and
4:02happy life
4:03everything else is commentary
4:06every feeling makes a subconscious
4:08impression and unless it is counteracted
4:11by a more powerful feeling of an
4:13opposite nature must be expressed
4:16the dominant of two feelings is the one
4:18expressed
4:19I am healthy is a stronger feeling than
4:22I will be healthy
4:24to feel I will be is to confess I am not
4:26I am is stronger than I am not
4:29what you feel you are always dominates
4:32what you feel you would like to be
4:33therefore to be realized the wish must
4:36be felt as a state that is rather than a
4:39state that is not
4:40sensation precedes manifestation and is
4:43the foundation upon which all
4:45manifestation rests
4:47be careful of your moods and feelings
4:49for there is an unbroken connection
4:51between your feelings and your visible
4:53world
4:54your body is an emotional filter and
4:57bears the unmistakable marks of your
4:59prevalent emotions
5:01emotional disturbances especially
5:03suppressed emotions are the causes of
5:06all disease
5:07to feel intensely about a ROM without
5:09voicing or expressing that feeling is
5:12the beginning of disease disease in both
5:14body and environment
5:16do not entertain the feeling of regret
5:19or failure for frustration or Detachment
5:21from your objective results in disease
5:24think feelingly only of the stake you
5:26desire to realize
5:28feeling the reality of the state sought
5:31and living and acting on that conviction
5:33is the way of all seeming miracles
5:36all changes of expression are brought
5:38about through a change of feeling
5:40a change of feeling is a change of
5:42Destiny
5:44all creation occurs in the domain of the
5:46subconscious
5:48what you must acquire then is a
5:51reflective control of the operation of
5:53the subconscious that is control of your
5:55ideas and feelings
5:57chance or accident is not responsible
6:00for the things that happen to you nor is
6:02predestined Faith the author of your
6:04fortune or misfortune
6:06your subconscious Impressions determine
6:09the conditions of Your World
6:11the subconscious is not selective it is
6:13impersonal and no respecter of persons
6:16acts 10 34 Romans 2 verse 11.
6:20the subconscious is not concerned with
6:22the truth or falsity of your feeling
6:25it always accepts as true that which you
6:28feel to be true
6:29feeling is the ascent of the
6:31subconscious to the truth of that which
6:33is declared to be true
6:35because of this quality of the
6:37subconscious there is nothing impossible
6:39to man
6:40whatever the mind of man can conceive
6:43and feel is true the subconscious can
6:45and must objectify
6:47your feelings create the pattern from
6:49which your world is fashioned and a
6:52change of feeling is a change of pattern
6:55the subconscious never fails to express
6:57that which has been impressed upon it
7:00the moment it receives an impression it
7:02begins to work out the ways of its
7:04expression
7:05it accepts the feeling impressed upon it
7:08your feeling as a fact existing within
7:10itself and immediately sets about to
7:12produce in the outer or objective world
7:14the exact likeness of that feeling
7:17the subconscious never Alters the
7:20accepted beliefs of man
7:22it outpictures them to the Last Detail
7:24whether or not they are beneficial
7:27to impress the subconscious with the
7:29desirable State you must assume the
7:31feeling that would be yours had you
7:33already realized your wish
7:35in defining your objective you must be
7:37concerned only with the objective itself
7:40the manner of expression or the
7:42difficulties involved are not to be
7:44considered by you
7:46to think feelingly on any state
7:48impresses it on the subconscious
7:51therefore if you dwell on difficulties
7:53barriers or delay the subconscious by
7:57its very non-selective nature accepts
7:59the feeling of difficulties and
8:01obstacles as your request and proceeds
8:03to produce them in your outer world
8:06the subconscious is the womb of creation
8:09it receives the idea unto itself through
8:11the feelings of man
8:13it never changes the idea received but
8:16always gives it form
8:18hence the subconscious out pictures the
8:21idea in the image and likeness of the
8:23feeling received
8:24to feel a state as hopeless or
8:27impossible is to impress the
8:28subconscious with the idea of failure
8:31although the subconscious Faithfully
8:33serves man it must not be inferred that
8:36the relation is that of a servant to a
8:38Master as was anciently conceived
8:41the ancient prophets called it the slave
8:43and servant of man
8:45Saint Paul personified it as a woman and
8:48said the woman should be subject to man
8:50in everything Ephesians 5 24 also First
8:55Corinthians 14 34 Ephesians 5 22.
8:59Colossians 3 Verse 18 first Peter 3
9:03verse 1.
9:04the subconscious does serve man and
9:07Faithfully gives form to his feelings
9:09however the subconscious has a distinct
9:12distaste for compulsion in response to
9:14persuasion rather than to command
9:16consequently it resembles the Beloved
9:19wife more than the servant
9:21the husband is head of the wife
9:23Ephesians 5 23 may not be true of man
9:27and woman in their Earthly relationship
9:29but it is true of the conscious and the
9:31subconscious or the male and female
9:33aspects of consciousness
9:36the mystery to which Paul referred when
9:38he wrote this is a great mystery 5 32 he
9:42that loveth his wife loveth himself 5 28
9:45and they too shall be one flesh 531 is
9:49simply the mystery of consciousness
9:51Consciousness is really one and
9:53undivided but for creation's sake it
9:55appears to be divided into two
9:58the conscious objective or male aspect
10:01truly is the head and dominates the
10:03subconscious subjective or female aspect
10:07however this leadership is not that of
10:10the Tyrant but of the lover
10:12so by assuming the feeling that would be
10:15yours were you already in possession of
10:17your objective the subconscious is moved
10:20to build the exact likeness of your
10:22assumption
10:23your desires are not subconsciously
10:25accepted until you assume the feeling of
10:27their reality for only through feeling
10:29is an idea subconsciously accepted and
10:32only through this subconscious
10:34acceptance is it ever expressed
10:36it is easier to ascribe your feeling to
10:39events in the world than to admit that
10:41the conditions of the world reflect your
10:42feeling
10:44however it is eternally true that the
10:46outside mirrors the inside
10:49as within so without As Above So Below
10:52as below so above as within so without
10:56as without So within correspondence the
11:00second of the seven principles of Hermes
11:02trismages
11:04a man can receive nothing unless it is
11:06given him from Heaven John 3 verse 27
11:09and the Kingdom of Heaven is within you
11:12Luke 17 verse 21.
11:15nothing comes from without all things
11:17come from within from the subconscious
11:20it is impossible for you to see other
11:22than the contents of your consciousness
11:25your world and its every detail is your
11:28consciousness objectified
11:30objective States bear witness of
11:32subconscious impressions
11:34a change of impression results in a
11:37change of expression
11:39the subconscious accepts as true that
11:41which you feel is true and because
11:43creation is the result of subconscious
11:45Impressions you by your feeling
11:48determine creation
11:50you are already that which you want to
11:52be and your refusal to believe this is
11:54the only reason you do not see it
11:57to seek on the outside for that which
11:59you do not feel you are is to seek in
12:01vain for we never find that which we
12:03want we find only that which we are
12:07in short you express and have only that
12:09which you are conscious of being or
12:11possessing
12:12to him that hath it is given Matthew 13
12:15verse 12 25 29 Mark 4 verse 25 Luke 8
12:21verse 18 19 26.
12:24denying the evidence of the senses and
12:26appropriating the feeling of the wish
12:28fulfilled is the way to the realization
12:30of your desire
12:32Mastery of self-control of your thoughts
12:34and feelings is your highest achievement
12:37however until perfect self-control is
12:40attained so that in spite of appearances
12:43you feel all that you want to feel you
12:45sleep and prayer to Aid you in realizing
12:48your desired States
12:50these are the two gateways into the
12:52subconscious
12:55chapter 2.
12:57sleep
12:59the life that occupies one-third of our
13:02stay on Earth is the natural door into
13:04the subconscious
13:06so it is with sleep that we are now
13:09concerned
13:10the conscious two thirds of our life on
13:13Earth is measured by the degree of
13:14attention we give sleep
13:16our understanding of and Delight in what
13:19sleep has to bestow will cause us night
13:21after night to set out for it as though
13:24we were keeping an appointment with a
13:25lover
13:26in a dream in a vision of the night when
13:29deep sleep falleth upon men in
13:32slumbering upon the bed then he opened
13:34at the ears of men and seal at their
13:36instruction job 33.
13:38it is in sleep and in prayer I stayed
13:41akin to sleep that man enters the
13:43subconscious to make his Impressions and
13:45receive his instructions
13:47in these states the conscious and
13:49subconscious are creatively joined
13:52the male and female become one flesh
13:56sleep is the time when the male or
13:58conscious mind turns from the world of
14:00sense to seek its lover or subconscious
14:02self
14:04the subconscious unlike the woman of the
14:06world who marries her husband to change
14:08him has no desire to change the
14:10conscious waking state but loves it as
14:13it is and Faithfully reproduces its
14:15likeness in the outer world of form
14:18the conditions and events of your life
14:20Where Your Children formed from the
14:22molds of your subconscious impressions
14:24in sleep
14:25they are made in the image and likeness
14:27of your innermost feeling that they may
14:29reveal you to yourself
14:31as in heaven so on Earth Matthew 6 verse
14:3510 Luke 11 verse 2.
14:37as in the subconscious so on Earth
14:41whatever you have in Consciousness as
14:43you go to sleep is the measure of your
14:45expression in the waking two-thirds of
14:47your life on Earth
14:48Nothing Stops you from realizing your
14:51objective savior failure to feel that
14:53you are already that which you wish to
14:55be or that you are already in possession
14:57of the things sought
14:59your subconscious gives form to your
15:01desires only when you feel your wish
15:03fulfilled
15:04the unconsciousness of sleep is the
15:07normal state of the subconscious
15:09because all things come from within
15:11yourself and your conception of yourself
15:13determines that which comes you should
15:16always feel the wish fulfilled before
15:17you drop off to sleep
15:19you never draw out of the deep of
15:21yourself that which you want you always
15:24draw that which you are and you are that
15:26which you feel yourself to be as well as
15:28that which you feel is true of others
15:30to be realized then the wish must be
15:33resolved into the feeling of being or
15:35having or witnessing the states of
15:38this is accomplished by assuming the
15:40feeling of the wish fulfilled
15:42the feeling which comes in response to
15:44the question how would I feel when my
15:46wish realized is the feeling which
15:48should monopolize and immobilize your
15:50attention as you relax into sleep
15:53you must be in the consciousness of
15:55being or having that which you want to
15:57be or to have before you drop off to
15:59sleep
16:00once asleep man has no freedom of choice
16:04his entire Slumber is dominated by his
16:07last waking concept of self
16:09it follows therefore that he should
16:11always assume the feeling of
16:13accomplishment and satisfaction before
16:15he retires in sleep come before me with
16:18singing and Thanksgiving Psalm 95 verse
16:212 enter into his gates with Thanksgiving
16:23and into his courts with praise Psalm
16:26100 verse 4.
16:27your mood prior to sleep defines your
16:30State of Consciousness as you enter into
16:32the presence of your Everlasting lover
16:34the subconscious
16:36she sees you exactly as you feel
16:38yourself to be
16:39if as you prepare for sleep you assume
16:42and maintain the consciousness of
16:44success by feeling I am successful you
16:47must be successful
16:48lie flat on your back with your head on
16:51a level with your body
16:53feel as you would were you in possession
16:54of your wish and quietly relax into
16:57unconsciousness
16:58he that keepeth Israel shall neither
17:01slumber nor sleep Psalm 121 verse 4.
17:05nevertheless he giveth his beloved sleep
17:07Psalm 127 verse 2.
17:11the subconscious never sleeps
17:14sleep is the door through which the
17:16conscious waking mind passes to be
17:18creatively joined to the subconscious
17:21sleep conceals the creative act while
17:24the objective World reveals it
17:26in sleep man impresses the subconscious
17:29with his conception of himself
17:31what more beautiful description of this
17:34Romance of the conscious and
17:35subconscious is there than that told in
17:37That Song of Solomon By Night on my bed
17:40I sought him whom my soul loveth free
17:42colon one I found him whom my soul
17:44loveth I held him and I not let him go
17:47until I had brought him into my mother's
17:49house and into the Chamber of her that
17:51conceived me three colon 4.
17:54preparing to sleep you feel yourself
17:57into the state of the answered wish and
17:59then relax into unconsciousness
18:01your realized wish is he whom you seek
18:05By Night on your bed you seek the
18:07feeling of the wish fulfilled that you
18:09may take it with you into the Chamber of
18:11her that conceived you into sleep or the
18:14subconscious which gave you form that
18:16this wish Also may be given expression
18:19this is the way to discover and conduct
18:21your wishes into the subconscious
18:24feel yourself in the state of the
18:26realized wish and quietly drop off to
18:28sleep
18:29night after night you should assume the
18:31feeling of being having and witnessing
18:34that which you seek to be possess and
18:36see manifested
18:38never go to sleep feeling discouraged or
18:40dissatisfied
18:42never sleep in the consciousness of
18:44failure
18:45your subconscious whose natural state is
18:48sleep sees you as you believe yourself
18:50to be and whether it be good bad or
18:53indifferent the subconscious will
18:55Faithfully embody your belief
18:58as you feel so do you impress her and
19:00she the perfect lover gives form to
19:03these Impressions and out pictures them
19:05as the children of her beloved
19:07Thou Art all fair my love there is no
19:10spot in the Song of Solomon 4 verse 7 is
19:14the attitude of mind to adopt before
19:16dropping off to sleep
19:18disregard appearances and feel that
19:20things are as you wish them to be for he
19:23calleth things that are not seen as
19:24though they were and the Unseen become
19:27seen approximate Romans 4 verse 17.
19:31to assume the feeling of satisfaction is
19:33to call conditions into being which will
19:35mirror satisfaction
19:37signs follow they do not proceed
19:41proof that you are Will Follow the
19:43Consciousness that you are it will not
19:45precede it
19:46you are an eternal dreamer dreaming
19:48non-eternal dreams
19:50your dreams take form as you assume the
19:53feeling of their reality
19:55do not limit yourself to the Past
19:58knowing that nothing is impossible to
20:00Consciousness begin to imagine States
20:03beyond the experiences of the past
20:06whatever the mind of man can imagine man
20:09can realize
20:10all objective visible states were first
20:13subjective invisible States and you
20:17called them into visible by assuming the
20:19feeling of their reality
20:21the creative process is first imagining
20:23and then believing the state imagined
20:26always imagine and expect the best
20:29the world cannot change until you change
20:32your conception of it
20:33as within so without
20:36Nations as well as people are only what
20:39you believe them to be
20:41no matter what the problem is no matter
20:44where it is no matter whom it concerns
20:46you have no one to change but yourself
20:48and you have neither opponent nor helper
20:51in bringing about the change within
20:52yourself
20:54you have nothing to do but convince
20:56yourself of the truth of that which you
20:58desire to see manifested
21:00as soon as you succeed in convincing
21:02yourself of the reality of the state
21:04sought results follow to confirm your
21:07fixed belief
21:08you never suggest to another the state
21:10which you desire to see him Express
21:12instead you convince yourself that he is
21:15already that which you desire him to be
21:18realization of your wish is accomplished
21:20by assuming the feeling of the wish
21:22fulfilled
21:23you cannot fail unless you fail to
21:26convince yourself of the reality of your
21:28wish
21:29a change of belief is confirmed by a
21:31change of expression
21:33every night as you drop off to sleep
21:36feel satisfied and spotless for your
21:39subjective lover always forms the
21:41objective world in the image and
21:42likeness of your conception of it the
21:45conception defined by your feeling
21:47the waking two-thirds of your life on
21:49Earth ever corroborates or bears witness
21:51to your subconscious impressions
21:54the actions and events of the day are
21:57effects they are not causes
21:59Free Will is only freedom of choice
22:02choose ye this day whom ye shall serve
22:05Joshua 24 15 is your freedom to choose
22:09the kind of mood you assume but the
22:11expression of the mood is the secret of
22:13the subconscious
22:15the subconscious receives Impressions
22:17only through the feelings of man and in
22:19a way known only to itself gives these
22:22Impressions form an expression
22:24the actions of man are determined by his
22:27subconscious impressions
22:29his illusion of free will his belief in
22:32Freedom of action is but ignorance of
22:34the causes which make him act
22:37he thinks himself free because he has
22:39forgotten the link between himself and
22:41the event
22:42man awake is under compulsion to express
22:45his subconscious impressions
22:47if in the past he unwisely impressed
22:50himself then let him begin to change his
22:52thought and feeling for only as he does
22:54so will he change his world
22:57do not waste One Moment In regret for to
23:00think feelingly of the mistakes of the
23:01past is to reinfect yourself
23:04Let the dead bury the dead Matthew 8
23:07verse 22 Luke 9 verse 60.
23:10churn from appearances and assume the
23:13feeling that would be yours were you
23:14already the one you wish to be
23:16feeling a state produces that state
23:19the part you play on the world stage is
23:22determined by your conception of
23:23yourself
23:25by feeling your wish fulfilled and
23:27quietly relaxing into sleep you cast
23:29yourself in a star role to be played on
23:31Earth tomorrow and while asleep you are
23:34rehearsed and instructed in your part
23:37the acceptance of the end automatically
23:39Wills the means of realization
23:42make no mistake about this
23:45if as you prepare for sleep you do not
23:48consciously feel yourself into the state
23:50of the answered wish then you will take
23:52with you into the Chamber of her who
23:53conceived you the sum total of the
23:55reactions and feelings of the waking day
23:57and while asleep you will be instructed
24:00in the manner in which they will be
24:01expressed tomorrow
24:03you will rise believing that you are a
24:05free agent not realizing that every
24:07action and event of a day is
24:09predetermined by your concept of self as
24:11you fell asleep
24:13your only Freedom then is your freedom
24:16of reaction
24:17you are free to choose how you feel and
24:19react to the day's drama but the drama
24:22the actions events and circumstances of
24:25the day have already been determined
24:28unless you consciously and purposely
24:30Define the attitude of mind with which
24:32you go to sleep you unconsciously go to
24:35sleep in a composite attitude of mind
24:37made up of all feelings and reactions of
24:39the day
24:40every reaction makes a subconscious
24:43impression and unless counteracted by an
24:45opposite and more dominant feeling is
24:48the cause of future action
24:50ideas enveloped in Feeling by creative
24:52actions
24:54use your Divine Right wisely
24:57through your ability to think and feel
24:59you have dominion over all creation
25:02while you are awake you are a gardener
25:04selecting seed for your garden but
25:07accept a corn of wheat fall into the
25:09ground and die it abideth alone but if
25:12it die it bringeth forth much fruit John
25:1512 24.
25:17your conception of yourself as you fall
25:19asleep is the CG drop into the ground of
25:22the subconscious
25:23dropping off to sleep feeling satisfied
25:26and happy compels conditions and events
25:28to appear in your world which confirm
25:30these attitudes of mind
25:32sleep is the door into heaven
25:35what you take in as a feeling you bring
25:37out as a condition action or object in
25:40space
25:41so sleep in the feeling of the wish
25:44fulfilled
25:45as in Consciousness so on Earth
25:50chapter 3.
25:52prayer
25:54prayer like sleep is also an entrance
25:57into the subconscious
25:59When you pray enter into your closet and
26:02when you have shut your door pray to
26:04your father which is in secret in your
26:06father which is in secret shall reward
26:07you openly Matthew 6 6.
26:11prayer is an illusion of sleep which
26:13diminishes the impression of the outer
26:15world and renders the mind more
26:16receptive to suggestion from within
26:19the mind in prayer is in a state of
26:21relaxation and receptivity Akin to the
26:24feeling attained just before dropping
26:26off to sleep
26:27prayer is not so much what you ask for
26:29as how you prepare for its reception
26:33whatsoever things ye desire When you
26:35pray believe that you have received them
26:37and ye shall have them Mark 11 24.
26:41the only condition required is that you
26:43believe that your prayers are already
26:45realized
26:46your prayer must be answered if you
26:48assume the feeling that would be yours
26:50were you already in possession of your
26:52objective
26:53the moment you accept the wish as an
26:55accomplished fact the subconscious finds
26:58the means for its realization
27:00to pray successfully then you must yield
27:03to the wish that is feel the wish
27:05fulfilled
27:07the perfectly disciplined man is always
27:10in tune with the wish as an accomplished
27:12fact
27:13he knows that Consciousness is the one
27:15and only reality that ideas and feelings
27:18are facts of Consciousness and are as
27:20real as objects in space therefore he
27:23never entertains a feeling which does
27:25not contribute to his happiness for
27:27Feelings by the causes of the actions
27:29and circumstances of his life
27:32on the other hand the undisciplined man
27:34finds it difficult to believe that which
27:36is denied by the senses and usually
27:39accepts or rejects solely on appearances
27:41of the senses
27:43because of this tendency to rely on the
27:45evidence of the senses it is necessary
27:48to shut them out before starting to pray
27:50before attempting to feel that which
27:52they deny
27:53whenever you are in the state of mind I
27:55should like to but I cannot the harder
27:58you try the less you are able to yield
28:00to the wish
28:02you never attract that which you want
28:04but always attract that which you are
28:06conscious of being
28:07prayer is the art of assuming the
28:09feeling of being and having that which
28:11you want
28:13when the senses confirm the absence of
28:15your wish all conscious effort to
28:17counteract this suggestion is futile and
28:19tends to intensify the suggestion
28:22prayer is the art of yielding to the
28:24wish and not the forcing of the wish
28:27whenever you're feeling is in conflict
28:29with your wish feeling will be the
28:31victor
28:32the dominant feeling invariably
28:34expresses itself
28:36prayer must be without effort
28:39in attempting to fix an attitude of mind
28:41which is denied by the senses effort is
28:43fatal
28:45to yield successfully to the wish as an
28:47accomplished fact you must create a
28:49passive State a kind of reverie or
28:52meditative reflection similar to the
28:54feeling which precedes sleep
28:56in such a relaxed State the mind is
28:59turned from the objective world and
29:00easily senses the reality of a
29:02subjective state
29:04it is a state in which you are conscious
29:06and quite able to move or open your eyes
29:09but have no desire to do so
29:11an easy way to create this passive state
29:14is to relax in a comfortable chair or on
29:16a bed
29:18if on a bed lie flat on your back with
29:20your head on a level with your body
29:22close the eyes and imagine that you are
29:24sleepy
29:26feel I am sleepy so sleepy so very
29:29sleepy
29:31in a little while a far away feeling
29:33accompanied by a general lassitude and
29:35loss of all desire to move envelopes you
29:39you feel a pleasant comfortable rest and
29:41not inclined to alter your position
29:43although under other circumstances you
29:45would not be at all comfortable
29:48when this passive state is reached
29:50imagine that you have realized your wish
29:52not how it was realized but simply the
29:55wish fulfilled
29:56imagine in picture form what you desire
29:59to achieve in life then feel yourself as
30:02having already achieved it
30:04thoughts produce tiny little speech
30:06movements which may be heard in the
30:07passive state of prayer as
30:09pronouncements from without
30:11however this degree of passivity is not
30:14essential to the realization of your
30:16prayers
30:17all that is necessary is to create a
30:19passive State and feel the wish
30:21fulfilled
30:22all you can possibly need or desire is
30:25already yours
30:27you need no helper to give it to you it
30:29is yours now
30:31call your desires into being by
30:33imagining and feeling your wish
30:35fulfilled
30:36as the end is accepted you become
30:38totally indifferent as to possible
30:40failure for acceptance of the end Wills
30:43the means to that end
30:45when you emerge from a moment of prayer
30:47it is as though you were shown the happy
30:49and successful end of a play although
30:51you were not shown how that end was
30:53achieved
30:54however having witnessed the end
30:56regardless of any anticlimactic sequence
30:59you remain calm and secure in the
31:01knowledge that the end has been
31:03perfectly defined
31:06chapter 4.
31:08Spirit feeling
31:10not by might nor by power but by my
31:14spirit set the Lord of hosts Zechariah 4
31:176.
31:18get into the spirit of the state desired
31:21by assuming the feeling that would be
31:22yours were you already the one you want
31:24to be
31:25as you capture the feeling of the state
31:27sought you are relieved of all effort to
31:30make it so for it is already so
31:33there is a definite feeling associated
31:35with every idea in the mind of man
31:38capture the feeling associated with your
31:40realized Wish by assuming the feeling
31:42that would be yours were you already in
31:44possession of the thing you desire and
31:46your wish will objectify itself
31:49faith is feeling according to your faith
31:52feeling be it unto you Matthew 9 verse
31:5529.
31:56you never attract that which you want
31:58but always that which you are
32:01as a man is so does he see
32:04to him that hath it shall be given unto
32:07him that hath not it shall be taken away
32:09Matthew 13 verse 12 25 29 Mark 4 colon
32:1425 Luke 8 18 19 26.
32:18that which you feel yourself to be you
32:20are and you are given that which you are
32:23so assume the feeling that would be
32:25yours were you already in possession of
32:27your wish and your wish must be realized
32:31so God created man in his own image in
32:34the image of God created he him Genesis
32:361 verse 27.
32:38let this mind be in you which was also
32:41in Christ Jesus who being in the form of
32:43God thought it not robbery to be equal
32:45with God Philippians 2 verses 5 and 6.
32:49you are that which you believe yourself
32:51to be
32:52instead of believing in God or in Jesus
32:55believe you are God or you are Jesus
32:59he that believeth on me the works that I
33:01do shall he do also John 14 verse 12
33:04should be he that believes as I believe
33:07the works that I do shall he do also
33:10Jesus found it not strange to do the
33:12works of God because he believed himself
33:14to be God
33:16I and my father are one John 10 30.
33:20it is natural to do the works of the one
33:22you believe yourself to be
33:24so live in a feeling of being the one
33:26you want to be and that you shall be
33:29when a man believes in the value of the
33:31advice given him and applies it he
33:33establishes within himself the reality
33:36of success
