- 0:08knowledge chapter 1 before Abraham
- 0:13was in the beginning was the word and
- 0:16the Word was with God and the Word was
- 0:19God in the beginning was the
- 0:21unconditioned awareness of being and the
- 0:23unconditioned awareness of being became
- 0:25conditioned by imagining itself to be
- 0:27something and the unconditioned
- 0:28awareness of being became that which it
- 0:30had imagined itself to be so did
- 0:32creation Begin by this law first
- 0:36conceiving then becoming that conceived
- 0:38all things evolve out of nothing and
- 0:40without the sequence there is not
- 0:42anything made that is made before
- 0:45Abraham or the world was I am when all
- 0:48of time shall cease to be I am I am the
- 0:51formless awareness of being conceiving
- 0:53myself to be man by my Everlasting law
- 0:56of being I am compelled to be and to
- 0:58express all that I believe myself to be
- 1:02I am the Eternal nothingness containing
- 1:04within my formless self the capacity to
- 1:06be all things I am that in which all my
- 1:09conceptions of myself live and move and
- 1:11have their being and apart from which
- 1:13they are not I dwell within every
- 1:16conception of myself from this withness
- 1:19I ever seek to transcend all conceptions
- 1:22of Myself by the very law of my being I
- 1:25transcend my conceptions of myself only
- 1:27as I believe myself to be that which
- 1:29does transcend do the beginning was the
- 1:31word and the Word was with God and the
- 1:33Word was God I am the law of being and
- 1:37beside me there is no law I am that I
- 1:41am chapter 2 you shall
- 1:45decree so shall my word be that goeth
- 1:47forth out of my mouth it shall not
- 1:50return unto me void but it shall
- 1:52accomplish that which I please and it
- 1:54shall prosper in the thing whereto I
- 1:56sent it Isaiah 55:1
- 2:00man can decree a thing and it will come
- 2:02to
- 2:03pass man has always decreed that which
- 2:06has appeared in his world he is today
- 2:09decreeing that which is appearing in his
- 2:11world and he shall continue to do so as
- 2:13long as man is conscious of being man
- 2:16nothing has ever appeared in man's world
- 2:19but what man decreed that it should this
- 2:21you may deny but try as you will you
- 2:24cannot disprove it for this decreeing is
- 2:26based upon a changeless principle man
- 2:29does not command things to appear by his
- 2:31words which are more often than not a
- 2:34confession of his doubts and fears
- 2:36decreeing is ever done in
- 2:38Consciousness every man automatically
- 2:41expresses that which he is conscious of
- 2:43being without effort or the use of words
- 2:46at every moment of time man is
- 2:48commanding himself to be and to possess
- 2:50that which he is conscious of being and
- 2:52possessing this changeless principle of
- 2:55expression is dramatized in all the
- 2:57Bibles of the world the writers of our
- 3:00sacred books were illumined Mystics Past
- 3:02Masters in the art of psychology in
- 3:05telling the story of the Soul they
- 3:06personified this impersonal principle in
- 3:08the form of a historical document both
- 3:10to preserve it and to hide it from the
- 3:12eyes of the
- 3:14uninitiated today those to whom this
- 3:16great treasure has been entrusted namely
- 3:18the priesthoods of the world have
- 3:20forgotten that the bibles are
- 3:22psychological dramas representing the
- 3:24consciousness of man in their blind
- 3:26forgetfulness they now teach their
- 3:27followers to worship its characters as
- 3:29men and women who actually lived in time
- 3:31and
- 3:32space when man sees the Bible as a great
- 3:34psychological drama with all of its
- 3:36characters and actors as the personified
- 3:38qualities and attributes of his own
- 3:41Consciousness then and then only will
- 3:43the Bible reveal to him the light of its
- 3:45symbology this impersonal principle of
- 3:48Life which made all things is
- 3:50personified as God this Lord God creator
- 3:53of Heaven and Earth is discovered to be
- 3:56man's awareness of being if man were
- 3:58less Bound by orthodox and more
- 4:00intuitively observant he could not fail
- 4:02to notice in the reading of the Bibles
- 4:04that the awareness of being is revealed
- 4:06hundreds of times throughout this
- 4:08literature to name a few I am hath sent
- 4:11me unto you be still and know that I am
- 4:14God I am the lord and there is no God I
- 4:17am the shepherd I am the door I am the
- 4:21resurrection and the life I am the way I
- 4:24am the beginning and the end I am man's
- 4:29unconditioned awareness of being is
- 4:30revealed as Lord and creator of every
- 4:33conditioned state of being if man would
- 4:35give up his belief in a god apart from
- 4:37himself recognize his awareness of being
- 4:40to be God this awareness fashion itself
- 4:43in the likeness and image of its
- 4:44conception of itself he would transform
- 4:46his world from a Barren waste to a
- 4:48fertile field of his own
- 4:50liking the day man does this he will
- 4:53know that he and his father are one but
- 4:55his father is greater than he he will
- 4:58know that his consciousness of being is
- 5:00one with that which he is conscious of
- 5:02being but that his unconditioned
- 5:04consciousness of being is greater than
- 5:05his conditioned state or his conception
- 5:07of
- 5:08himself when man discovers his
- 5:10Consciousness to be the impersonal power
- 5:12of expression which power eternally
- 5:14personifies itself in his conceptions of
- 5:16himself he will assume and appropriate
- 5:19that State of Consciousness which he
- 5:20desires to express in so doing he will
- 5:23become that state in
- 5:25expression ye shall decree a thing and
- 5:27it shall come to pass can now be told in
- 5:29in this manner you shall become
- 5:31conscious of being or possessing a thing
- 5:33and you shall Express or possess that
- 5:35which you are conscious of being the law
- 5:38of Consciousness is the only law of
- 5:40expression I am the way I am the
- 5:43resurrection Consciousness is the way as
- 5:46well as the power which resurrects and
- 5:48expresses all that man will ever be
- 5:50conscious of being turn from the
- 5:53blindness of the uninitiated man who
- 5:55attempts to express and possess those
- 5:57qualities and things which he is not
- 5:58conscious of being and possessing and be
- 6:01as the illumined Mystic who decrees on
- 6:03the basis of this changeless law
- 6:05consciously claim yourself to be that
- 6:06which you seek appropriate the
- 6:08consciousness of that which you see and
- 6:11you too will know the status of the true
- 6:13Mystic as follows I became conscious of
- 6:16being it I am still conscious of being
- 6:19it and I shall continue to be conscious
- 6:21of being it until that which I am
- 6:23conscious of being is perfectly
- 6:26expressed yes I shall decree a thing and
- 6:28it shall come to
- 6:31pass Chapter 3 The principle of
- 6:35Truth ye shall know the truth and the
- 6:38truth shall make you free John
- 6:428:32 ye shall know the truth and the
- 6:45truth shall set you free the truth that
- 6:48sets man free is the knowledge that his
- 6:50Consciousness is the resurrection and
- 6:52the life that his Consciousness both
- 6:54resurrects and makes alive all that he
- 6:56is conscious of being apart from
- 6:58Consciousness there is NE neither
- 6:59Resurrection nor life when man gives up
- 7:03his belief in a god apart from himself
- 7:05and begins to recognize his awareness of
- 7:07being to be God as did Jesus and the
- 7:09prophets he will transform his world
- 7:11with the realization I and my father are
- 7:14one but my father is greater than I he
- 7:16will know that his Consciousness is God
- 7:18and that which he is conscious of being
- 7:20is the son bearing witness of God the
- 7:23Father the conceiver and the conception
- 7:25are one but the conceiver is greater
- 7:28than his conception
- 7:30before Abraham was I am yes I was aware
- 7:33of being before I became aware of being
- 7:35man and in that day when I shall cease
- 7:37to be conscious of being man I shall
- 7:39still be conscious of being the
- 7:42consciousness of being is not dependent
- 7:44upon being anything it preceded all
- 7:47conceptions of itself and shall be when
- 7:49all conceptions of itself shall cease to
- 7:51be I am the beginning and the end that
- 7:54is all things or conceptions of myself
- 7:57begin and end in me but I the formless
- 8:00awareness remain
- 8:02forever Jesus discovered this glorious
- 8:04truth and declared himself to be one
- 8:06with God not the god that man had
- 8:09fashioned for he never recognized such a
- 8:11God Jesus found God to be his awareness
- 8:14of being and so told man that the
- 8:16kingdom of God and Heaven were
- 8:18within when it is recorded that Jesus
- 8:20left the world and went to his father it
- 8:23is simply stating that he turned his
- 8:24attention from the world of the senses
- 8:26and Rose in Consciousness to that level
- 8:28which he desired to Express there he
- 8:31remained until he became one with the
- 8:33Consciousness to which he ascended when
- 8:35he returned to the world of man he could
- 8:37act with the Positive Assurance of that
- 8:39which he was conscious of being a state
- 8:41of consciousness no one but himself felt
- 8:43or knew that he possessed man who is
- 8:46ignorant of this Everlasting law of
- 8:48expression looks upon such happenings as
- 8:51miracles to rise in Consciousness to the
- 8:54level of the thing desired and to remain
- 8:56there until such level becomes your
- 8:58nature is the way of of all seeming
- 9:00Miracles and I if I be lifted up I shall
- 9:03draw all men unto me if I be lifted up
- 9:06in Consciousness to the naturalness of
- 9:08the thing desired I shall draw the
- 9:11manifestation of that desire to me no
- 9:14man comes unto me save the father Within
- 9:16Me draws him and I and my father are one
- 9:20my Consciousness is the father who draws
- 9:22the manifestation of life to me the
- 9:26nature of the manifestation is
- 9:27determined by the state of Consciousness
- 9:30in which I dwell I am always drawing
- 9:32into my world that which I am conscious
- 9:34of being if you are dissatisfied with
- 9:37your present expression of life then you
- 9:40must be born again rebirth is the
- 9:42dropping of that level with which you
- 9:44are dissatisfied and rising to that
- 9:46level of Consciousness which you desire
- 9:48to express and
- 9:49possess you cannot serve two masters or
- 9:52opposing States Of Consciousness at the
- 9:54same time taking your attention from one
- 9:56state and placing it upon the other you
- 9:59to the one from which you have taken it
- 10:01and you live and express the one with
- 10:03which you are
- 10:04united man cannot see how it would be
- 10:07possible to express that which he
- 10:08desires to be by so simple a law as
- 10:11acquiring the consciousness of the thing
- 10:13desired the reason for this lack of
- 10:16faith on the part of man is that he
- 10:17looks at the desired State through the
- 10:19consciousness of his present limitations
- 10:22therefore he naturally sees it as
- 10:24impossible of
- 10:26accomplishment one of the first things
- 10:28man must realize is that it is
- 10:29impossible in dealing with this
- 10:31spiritual law of Consciousness to put
- 10:34new wine into Old bottles or new patches
- 10:36on Old garments that is you cannot take
- 10:39any part of the present Consciousness
- 10:41into the new state for the state sought
- 10:43is complete in itself and needs no
- 10:45patching every level of Consciousness
- 10:48automatically expresses
- 10:50itself to rise to the level of any state
- 10:53is to automatically become that state in
- 10:55expression but in order to rise to the
- 10:57level that you are not now expressing
- 11:00you must completely drop the
- 11:01Consciousness with which you are now
- 11:03identified until your present
- 11:05Consciousness is dropped you will not be
- 11:07able to rise to another level do not be
- 11:09dismayed this letting go of your present
- 11:12identity is not as difficult as it might
- 11:14appear to be the invitation of the
- 11:16scriptures to be absent from the body
- 11:19and be present with the Lord is not
- 11:21given to a select few it is a sweeping
- 11:24call to all mankind the body from which
- 11:26you are invited to escape is your
- 11:28present conception of yourself with all
- 11:30of its limitations while the Lord with
- 11:32whom you are to be present is your
- 11:34awareness of being to accomplish this
- 11:37seemingly impossible feat you take your
- 11:39attention away from your problem and
- 11:41place it upon just being you say
- 11:43silently but
- 11:44feelingly I am do not condition this
- 11:47awareness but continue declaring quietly
- 11:51I am I am simply feel that you are
- 11:54faceless and formless and continue doing
- 11:56so until you feel yourself floating
- 11:59floating is a psychological state which
- 12:02completely denies the physical through
- 12:05practice in relaxation and willfully
- 12:07refusing to react to sensory Impressions
- 12:09it is possible to develop a state of
- 12:11consciousness of pure receptivity it is
- 12:14a surprisingly easy accomplishment in
- 12:16this state of complete Detachment a
- 12:19definite singleness of purposeful
- 12:21thought can be indelibly engraved upon
- 12:23your unmodified Consciousness this state
- 12:25of consciousness is necessary for True
- 12:28meditation
- 12:30this wonderful experience of rising and
- 12:31floating is the signal that you are
- 12:33absent from the body or problem and are
- 12:35now present with the Lord in this
- 12:37expanded State you are not conscious of
- 12:39being anything but I am I am you are
- 12:41only conscious of being when this
- 12:44expansion of consciousness is attained
- 12:46within this formless deep of yourself
- 12:49give form to the new conception by
- 12:50claiming and feeling yourself to be that
- 12:52which you before you entered into the
- 12:54state desired to be you will find that
- 12:57within this formless deep of your
- 12:59yourself all things appear to be
- 13:00divinely possible anything that you
- 13:02sincerely feel yourself to be while in
- 13:05this expanded state becomes in time your
- 13:08natural
- 13:09expression and God said let there be a
- 13:12firmament in the midst of the waters yes
- 13:15let there be a firmness or conviction in
- 13:17the midst of this expanded Consciousness
- 13:19by knowing and feeling I am that the
- 13:21thing
- 13:22desired as you claim and feel yourself
- 13:25to be the thing desired you are
- 13:27crystallizing this formless liquid light
- 13:29that you are into the image and likeness
- 13:31of that which you are conscious of being
- 13:34now that the law of your being has been
- 13:35revealed to you begin this day to change
- 13:38your world by revaluing yourself too
- 13:40long has man held to the belief that he
- 13:43is born of sorrow and must work out his
- 13:45salvation by the sweat of his brow God
- 13:47is impersonal and no respector of
- 13:49persons so long as man continues to walk
- 13:52in this belief of Sorrow so long will he
- 13:55walk in a world of sorrow and confusion
- 13:57for the world in its every detail is
- 13:59man's Consciousness
- 14:01crystallized in the Book of Numbers it
- 14:03is recorded there were giants in the
- 14:05land and we were in our own sight as
- 14:07Grasshoppers and we were in their sight
- 14:10as
- 14:11grasshoppers today is the day the
- 14:13Eternal now when conditions in the world
- 14:16have attained the appearance of giants
- 14:18the unemployed the armies of the enemy
- 14:21business competition Etc are the Giants
- 14:24which make you feel yourself to be a
- 14:25helpless
- 14:27grasshopper we are told we were first in
- 14:29our own sight helpless Grasshoppers and
- 14:31because of this conception of ourselves
- 14:33we were to the enemy helpless
- 14:35grasshoppers we can be to others only
- 14:38that which we are to ourselves therefore
- 14:41as we revalue ourselves and begin to
- 14:43feel ourselves to be the giant a center
- 14:45of power we automatically change our
- 14:47relationship to the Giants reducing
- 14:50these former monsters to their true
- 14:51Place making them appear to be the
- 14:53helpless
- 14:54grasshoppers Paul said of this principle
- 14:57it is to the Greeks or the so-called
- 14:59wise men of the world foolishness and to
- 15:02the Jews or those who look for signs a
- 15:04stumbling block with the result that man
- 15:06continues to walk in darkness rather
- 15:08than awake to the realization I am the
- 15:11light of the world man has so long
- 15:13worshiped the images of his own making
- 15:15that at first he finds this Revelation
- 15:18Blasphemous but the day man discovers
- 15:20and accepts this Principle as the basis
- 15:22of his life that day man slays his
- 15:25belief in a god apart from
- 15:27himself the story of Jesus J betrayal In
- 15:29The Garden of Gethsemane is the perfect
- 15:32illustration of man's discovery of this
- 15:34principle we are told the crowds armed
- 15:37with staves and lanterns sought Jesus in
- 15:39the dark of night as they inquired after
- 15:42the whereabouts of Jesus salvation The
- 15:46Voice answered I am whereupon the entire
- 15:49crowd fell to the ground on regaining
- 15:52their composure they again asked to be
- 15:54shown the hiding place of the Savior and
- 15:56again the Savior said I have told you
- 15:59that I am therefore if you seek me let
- 16:02all else go man in the darkness of human
- 16:05ignorance sets out on his search for God
- 16:08aided by the flickering light of human
- 16:10wisdom as it is revealed to man that his
- 16:12I am or awareness of being is his savior
- 16:15the shock is so great he mentally falls
- 16:17to the ground for every belief that he
- 16:19has ever entertained tumbles as he
- 16:21realizes that his Consciousness is the
- 16:23one and only savior the knowledge that
- 16:25his I am is God compels man to let all
- 16:27others go for he finds it impossible to
- 16:30serve two Gods man cannot accept his
- 16:32awareness of being as God and at the
- 16:34same time believe in another
- 16:36deity with this discovery man's human
- 16:39ear or hearing understanding is cut off
- 16:42by the sword of Faith Peter as his
- 16:45perfect disciplined hearing
- 16:46understanding is restored by Jesus the
- 16:49knowledge that I am is Lord and
- 16:52Savior before man can transform his
- 16:54world he must first lay this Foundation
- 16:57or understanding I am the Lord man must
- 17:01know that his awareness of being is God
- 17:03until this is firmly established so that
- 17:06no suggestion or argument of others can
- 17:08shake him he will find himself returning
- 17:10to the slavery of his former belief if
- 17:13ye believe not that I am he ye shall die
- 17:16in your sins unless man discovers that
- 17:18his Consciousness is the cause of every
- 17:20expression of his life he will continue
- 17:23seeking the cause of his confusion in
- 17:25the world of effects and so shall die in
- 17:28his fruitless search
- 17:30I am the vine and ye are the branches
- 17:33Consciousness is the vine and that which
- 17:35you are conscious of being is as
- 17:37branches that you feed and keep alive
- 17:39just as a branch has no life except it
- 17:41be rooted in the vine likewise things
- 17:44have no life except you be conscious of
- 17:46them just as a branch Withers and dies
- 17:48if the sap of the vine ceases to flow
- 17:50towards it so do things and qualities
- 17:53pass away if you take your attention
- 17:54from them because your attention is the
- 17:56sap of Life which sustains the
- 17:58expression of of your
- 18:00life chapter 4 whom seek
- 18:04ye I have told you that I am if
- 18:08therefore ye seek me let these go their
- 18:10way John
- 18:1218:8 as soon then as he had said unto
- 18:15them I am they went backward and fell to
- 18:18the ground John
- 18:2018:6 today there is so much said about
- 18:23Masters Elder brothers adepts and
- 18:26initiates that numberless truth Seekers
- 18:28are being constantly misled by seeking
- 18:31these false lights for a price most of
- 18:33these pseudo teachers offer their
- 18:34students initiation into the Mysteries
- 18:37promising them guidance and Direction
- 18:39man's weakness for leaders as well as
- 18:41his worship of Idols makes him an easy
- 18:43prey of these schools and teachers good
- 18:46will come to most of these enrolled
- 18:47students they will discover after years
- 18:50of awaiting and sacrificing that they
- 18:52were following a mirage they will then
- 18:54become disillusioned in their schools
- 18:56and teachers and this disappointment
- 18:58will be worth the effort and price they
- 19:00have paid for their fruitless search
- 19:02they will then turn from their worship
- 19:03of man and in so doing discover that
- 19:06which they are seeking is not to be
- 19:07found in another for the Kingdom of
- 19:10Heaven is within this realization will
- 19:12be their first real initiation the
- 19:15lesson learned will be this there is
- 19:17only one master and this master is God
- 19:20the I am within
- 19:22themselves I am the Lord thy God who led
- 19:24thee out of the land of Darkness out of
- 19:27the house of bondage I am your awareness
- 19:30is Lord and Master and besides your
- 19:32awareness there is neither Lord nor
- 19:34Master you are master of all that you
- 19:36will ever be aware of being you know
- 19:39that you are do you not knowing that you
- 19:42are is the Lord and Master of that which
- 19:44you know that you are you could be
- 19:46completely isolated by man from that
- 19:48which you are conscious of being yet you
- 19:51would in spite of all human barriers
- 19:53effortlessly draw to yourself all that
- 19:55you were conscious of being the man who
- 19:57is conscious of being poor does not need
- 19:59the assistance of anyone to express his
- 20:01poverty the man who is conscious of
- 20:03being sick though isolated in the most
- 20:06hermetically sealed germ proof area in

- 23:03to be that I will give it unto you for I
- 23:05Am All Things to All Jesus would not
- 23:09permit himself to be called good Master
- 23:11he knew that there is but one good and
- 23:13one master he knew this one to be his
- 23:16father in Heaven the awareness of being
- 23:19the kingdom of God good and the kingdom
- 23:22of heaven are within you your belief in
- 23:25Masters is a confession of your slavery
- 23:28only slaves have Masters change your
- 23:31conception of yourself and you will
- 23:33without the aid of Masters or anyone
- 23:35else automatically transform your world
- 23:38to conform to your changed conception of
- 23:40yourself you are told in the book of
- 23:42numbers that there was a time when men
- 23:44were in their own eyes as Grasshoppers
- 23:46and because of this conception of
- 23:48themselves they saw giants in the land
- 23:50this is as true of man today as it was
- 23:52the day it was recorded man's conception
- 23:55of himself is so grasshopper likee that
- 23:57he automatically makes the conditions
- 23:59round about him appear gigantic in his
- 24:01blindness he cries out for Masters to
- 24:03help him fight his giant
- 24:05problems Jesus tried to show man that
- 24:08salvation was within himself and warned
- 24:10him not to look for his savior in places
- 24:12or people if anyone should come saying
- 24:15look here or look there believe him not
- 24:18for the Kingdom of Heaven is within you
- 24:21Jesus not only refused to permit himself
- 24:23to be called good Master he warned his
- 24:26followers salute no man alone along the
- 24:28highway he made it clear that they
- 24:30should not recognize any Authority or
- 24:33Superior other than God the
- 24:35father Jesus established the identity of
- 24:39the father as man's awareness of being I
- 24:42and my father are one but my father is
- 24:44greater than I I am one with all that I
- 24:47am conscious of being I am greater than
- 24:50that which I am aware of being the
- 24:52Creator is ever greater than his
- 24:55creation as Moses lifted up the serpent
- 24:58in the wilderness even so must the son
- 25:00of man be lifted up the serpent
- 25:02symbolizes man's present conception of
- 25:05himself as a worm of the Dust living in
- 25:08the wilderness of human confusion just
- 25:10as Moses lifted himself from his worm of
- 25:12the Dust conception of himself to
- 25:14discover God to be his awareness of
- 25:16being I am hath sent me so must you be
- 25:20lifted up the day you claim as did Moses
- 25:24I am that I am that day your claim will
- 25:27blossom in the wilderness
- 25:29your awareness is the master magician
- 25:31who conjures All Things by being that
- 25:33which he would conjure this Lord and
- 25:35Master that you are can and does make
- 25:38all that you are conscious of being a in
- 25:40your world no man manifestation cometh
- 25:44unto me save my father draw him and I
- 25:47and my father are one you are constantly
- 25:49drawing to yourself that which you are
- 25:51conscious of being change your
- 25:53conception of yourself from that of the
- 25:55slave to that of Christ don't be
- 25:57embarrassed to make this claim only as
- 26:00you claim I am Christ will you do the
- 26:03works of
- 26:04Christ The Works I do ye shall do also
- 26:07and Greater Works than these shall ye do
- 26:10for I go unto my
- 26:11father he made himself equal with God
- 26:14and found it not robbery to do the works
- 26:16of God Jesus knew that anyone who dared
- 26:19to claim himself to be Christ would
- 26:21automatically assume the capacities to
- 26:23express the works of his conception of
- 26:25Christ Jesus also knew that the exclus
- 26:28Ive use of this principle of expression
- 26:30was not given to him alone he constantly
- 26:33referred to his father in Heaven he
- 26:36stated that his Works would not only be
- 26:37equaled but that they would be surpassed
- 26:39by that man who dared to conceive
- 26:41himself to be greater than he Jesus had
- 26:44conceived himself to
- 26:45be Jesus in stating that he and his
- 26:48father were one but that his father was
- 26:50greater than he revealed his awareness
- 26:52father to be one with that which he was
- 26:54aware of being he found himself as
- 26:57father or awareness aess to be greater
- 26:59than that which he as Jesus was aware of
- 27:01being you and your conception of
- 27:03yourself are one you are and always will
- 27:06be greater than any conception you will
- 27:08ever have of
- 27:09yourself man fails to do the works of
- 27:12Jesus Christ because he attempts to
- 27:14accomplish them from his present level
- 27:16of Consciousness you will never
- 27:18transcend your present accomplishments
- 27:20through sacrifice and struggle your
- 27:22present level of Consciousness will only
- 27:24be transcended as you drop the present
- 27:26State and rise to a higher
- 27:28level you rise to a higher level of
- 27:31Consciousness by taking your attention
- 27:33away from your present limitations and
- 27:35placing it upon that which you desire to
- 27:37be do not attempt this in daydreaming or
- 27:40wishful thinking but in a positive
- 27:42manner claim yourself to be the thing

- 28:27that you are it will not precede it
- 28:30leave all and follow me is a double
- 28:33invitation to you first it invites you
- 28:35to turn completely away from all
- 28:37problems and then it calls upon you to
- 28:40continue walking in the claim that you
- 28:42are that which you desire to be do not
- 28:44be a Lot's wife who looks back and
- 28:46becomes salted or preserved in the dead

- 29:44your conceptions forgetting that you are
- 29:46the
- 29:47conceiver the power conceiving and the
- 29:50thing conceived are one but the power to
- 29:52conceive is greater than the
- 29:54conception Jesus discovered this
- 29:56glorious truth when he declared declared
- 29:59I and my father are one but my father is
- 30:01greater than I the power conceiving

- 36:49bore a son Mary the unconditioned
- 36:51Consciousness desired and then became
- 36:53conscious of being the condition state
- 36:55which she desired to express and in a
- 36:57way unknown to others became It Go and

- 37:37ways ye know not of my ways are past
- 37:40finding out your desire can be likened
- 37:42to a seed and seeds contain within
- 37:45themselves both the power and the plan
- 37:47of self-expression your Consciousness is
- 37:49the soil these seeds are successfully
- 37:52planted only if after you have claimed
- 37:54yourself to be and to have that which
- 37:56you desire you confidently await results
- 37:58without an anxious thought if I be
- 38:01lifted up in Consciousness to the
- 38:03naturalness of my desire I shall
- 38:05automatically draw the manifestation
- 38:07unto me Consciousness is the door
- 38:10through which life reveals itself
- 38:12Consciousness is always objectifying
- 38:15itself to be conscious of being or
- 38:18possessing anything is to be or have
- 38:20that which you are conscious of being or
- 38:22possessing therefore lift yourself to
- 38:25the consciousness of your desire and you
- 38:27will see it automatically out picture
- 38:30itself to do this you must deny your
- 38:32present identity let him deny himself
- 38:36you deny a thing by taking your
- 38:38attention away from it to drop a thing
- 38:41problem or ego from Consciousness you
- 38:43dwell upon God God being I am be still
- 38:47and know that I am is God believe feel
- 38:50that I am know that this knowing one
- 38:52within you your awareness of being is
- 38:55God close your eyes and feel yourself to
- 38:58be faceless formless and without figure
- 39:01approach this Stillness as though it
- 39:03were the easiest thing in the world to
- 39:05accomplish this attitude will assure
- 39:07your
- 39:08success when all thought of problem or
- 39:10self is dropped from Consciousness
- 39:12because you are now absorbed or lost in
- 39:14the feeling of just being I am then
- 39:16begin in this formless state to feel
- 39:18yourself to be that which you desire to
- 39:20be I am that I am the moment you reach a
- 39:23certain degree of intensity so that you
- 39:25actually feel yourself to be a new
- 39:27conception this new feeling or
- 39:29Consciousness is established and in due
- 39:31time will personify itself in the world
- 39:33of form this new perception will Express
- 39:35itself as naturally as you now express
- 39:38your present identity to express the
- 39:40qualities of a Consciousness naturally
- 39:42you must dwell or live within that
- 39:44Consciousness appropriate it by becoming
- 39:46one with it to feel a thing intensely
- 39:49and then rest confidently that it is
- 39:52makes the thing felt appear within your
- 39:54world I shall stand upon my watch and
- 39:56see the salvation of the Lord I shall
- 39:59stand firmly upon my feeling convinced
- 40:01that it is so and see my desire
- 40:04appear a man can receive nothing no
- 40:08thing except it be given him from Heaven
- 40:11remember Heaven is your Consciousness
- 40:13the Kingdom of Heaven is within you this
- 40:16is why you are warned against calling
- 40:18any man father your Consciousness is the
- 40:20father of all that you are again you
- 40:23were told salute no man on the highway
- 40:26see no man man as an authority why
- 40:29should you ask man for permission to
- 40:30express when you realize that your world
- 40:33in its every detail originated within
- 40:35you and is sustained by you as the only
- 40:38conceptional Center your whole world may
- 40:41be likened to solidified space mirroring
- 40:43the beliefs and acceptances as projected
- 40:45by a formless faceless presence namely I
- 40:48am reduce the whole to its primordial
- 40:51substance and nothing would remain but
- 40:53you a dimensionless presence the
- 40:55conceiver
- 40:57the conceiver is a law apart conceptions
- 41:00under such law are not to be measured by
- 41:02past accomplishments or Modified by
- 41:04present capacities for without taking
- 41:06thought the conception in a way unknown
- 41:09to man expresses
- 41:11itself go within secretly and
- 41:13appropriate the new Consciousness feel
- 41:16yourself to be it and the former
- 41:18limitations shall pass away as
- 41:19completely and as easily as snow on a
- 41:22hot summer's day you will not even
- 41:24remember the former limitations they
- 41:27were never part of this new
- 41:28Consciousness this rebirth Jesus
- 41:30referred to when he said to Nicodemus ye
- 41:33must be born again was nothing more than
- 41:35moving from one state of consciousness
- 41:37to
- 41:38another whatsoever ye shall ask in my
- 41:41name that will I do this certainly does
- 41:43not mean to ask in words pronouncing
- 41:46with the lips The Sounds God or Christ
- 41:48Jesus for Millions have asked in this
- 41:51manner without results to feel yourself
- 41:53to be a thing is to have asked for that
- 41:55thing in his name I am I am is the
- 41:57nameless presence to feel yourself to be
- 42:00rich is to ask for wealth in his name I
- 42:03am is unconditioned it is neither rich
- 42:05nor poor strong nor weak in other words
- 42:08in him there is neither Greek nor Jew
- 42:11Bond nor free male nor female these are
- 42:14all conceptions or limitations of the
- 42:16Limitless and therefore names of the
- 42:18nameless to feel yourself to be anything
- 42:21is to ask the nameless I am to express
- 42:24that name or nature ask whatsoever ye
- 42:26will in My Name by appropriating the
- 42:29nature of the thing desired and I will
- 42:31give it unto
- 42:34you chapter 6 I am
- 42:38he for if ye believe not that I am ye
- 42:41shall die in your sins John
- 42:458:4 all things were made by him and
- 42:48without him was not anything made that
- 42:50was made this is a hard saying for those
- 42:53trained in the various systems of
- 42:54Orthodox religion to accept but there it
- 42:57stands all things good bad and
- 43:00indifferent were made by God God made
- 43:02man manifestation in his own image in
- 43:06the likeness of God made he him
- 43:08apparently adding to this confusion it
- 43:10is stated and God saw that his creation
- 43:13was good what are you going to do about
- 43:15this seeming anomaly how is man going to
- 43:18correlate all things as good when that
- 43:20which he is taught denies this fact
- 43:22either the
- 43:23understanding of God is erroneous or
- 43:26else there is something radically wrong
- 43:28with man's
- 43:29teaching to the pure all things are pure
- 43:32this is another puzzling statement all
- 43:35the good people the pure people the holy
- 43:37people are the greatest prohibitionists
- 43:40couple the foregoing statement with this
- 43:41one there is no condemnation in Christ
- 43:44Jesus and you get an impassible barrier
- 43:47to the self-appointed judges of the
- 43:49world such statements mean nothing to
- 43:51the self-righteous judges blindly
- 43:53changing and destroying Shadows they
- 43:56continue in the firm belief that they
- 43:58are improving the world man not knowing
- 44:00that his world is his individual
- 44:02Consciousness outp pictured vainly
- 44:04strives to conform to the opinion of
- 44:06others rather than to conform to the one
- 44:08and only opinion existent namely his own
- 44:11judgment of
- 44:12himself when Jesus discovered his
- 44:14Consciousness to be this wonderful law
- 44:16of self-government he declared and now I
- 44:19sanctify myself that they also might be
- 44:21Sanctified through the truth he knew
- 44:24that Consciousness was the only reality
- 44:26that things objectified were nothing
- 44:28more than different states of
- 44:29Consciousness Jesus warned his followers
- 44:31to seek first the kingdom of heaven that
- 44:34State of Consciousness that would
- 44:35produce the thing desired and all things
- 44:38would be added to them he also stated I
- 44:41am the truth he knew that man's
- 44:43Consciousness was the truth or cause of
- 44:45all that man saw his world to be Jesus
- 44:49realized that the world was made in the
- 44:51likeness of man he knew that man saw his
- 44:54world to be what it was because man was
- 44:56what he was in short man's conception of
- 45:00himself determines that which he sees
- 45:02his world to be all things are made by
- 45:05God Consciousness and without him there
- 45:07is nothing made that is made creation is
- 45:10judged good and very good because it is
- 45:12the perfect likeness of that
- 45:14Consciousness which produced it to be
- 45:16conscious of being one thing and then
- 45:17see yourself expressing something other
- 45:19than that which you are conscious of
- 45:21being is a violation of the law of being
- 45:24therefore it would not be good the law
- 45:26of being is never broken man ever sees
- 45:29himself expressing that which he is
- 45:31conscious of being be it good bad or
- 45:33indifferent it is nevertheless a perfect
- 45:35likeness of his conception of himself it
- 45:38is good and very good not only are all
- 45:41things made by God all things are made
- 45:44of God all are The Offspring of God God
- 45:47is one things or divisions are the
- 45:50projections of the one God being one he
- 45:53must command himself to be the seeming
- 45:55other for there is no other the absolute
- 45:58cannot contain something within itself
- 46:00that is not itself if it did then it
- 46:03would not be absolute The Only One
- 46:05commands to be effective must be to
- 46:07oneself I am that I am is the only
- 46:10effective command I am the Lord and
- 46:13beside me there is none else you cannot
- 46:16command that which is not as there is no
- 46:18other you must command yourself to be
- 46:20that which you would have appear let me
- 46:22clarify what I mean by effective command
- 46:25you do not repeat like a par at the
- 46:27statement I am that I am such vain
- 46:30repetition would be both stupid and
- 46:32fruitless it is not the words that make
- 46:34it effective it is the consciousness of
- 46:37being the thing which makes it effective
- 46:39when you say I am you are declaring
- 46:42yourself to be the word that in the
- 46:44statement I am that I am indicates that
- 46:48which you would be the second I am in
- 46:50the quotation is the Cry of
- 46:53Victory this whole drama takes place
- 46:55inwardly with or without without the use
- 46:57of words be still and know that you are
- 47:00this Stillness is attained by observing
- 47:02The Observer repeat quietly but with
- 47:05feeling I am I am until you have lost
- 47:09all consciousness of the world and know
- 47:11yourself just as being awareness the
- 47:14knowing that you are is almighty God I
- 47:17am after this is accomplished Define
- 47:20yourself as that which you desire to be
- 47:22by feeling yourself to be the thing
- 47:24desired I am that this understand
- 47:27understanding that you are the thing
- 47:28desired will cause a thrill to course
- 47:30through your entire being when the
- 47:32conviction is established and you really
- 47:33believe that you are that which you
- 47:35desire to be then the second I am is
- 47:38uttered as a cry of Victory this
- 47:40mystical revelation of Moses can be seen
- 47:42as three distinct steps I am I am free I
- 47:47really am am it does not matter what the
- 47:51appearances round about you are like all
- 47:53things make way for the coming of the
- 47:55Lord I am the Lord coming in the
- 47:58appearance of that which I am conscious
- 48:00of being all the inhabitants of the
- 48:02earth cannot stay my coming or question
- 48:04my authority to be that which I am
- 48:06conscious that I am I am the light of
- 48:09the world crystallizing into the form of
- 48:12my conception of myself Consciousness is
- 48:15the Eternal Light which crystallizes
- 48:17only through the medium of your
- 48:19conception of yourself change your
- 48:21conception of yourself and you will
- 48:23automatically change the world in which
- 48:25you live do not try to change people
- 48:28they are only Messengers telling you who
- 48:29you are revalue yourself and they will
- 48:32confirm the
- 48:33change now you will realize why Jesus
- 48:36Sanctified himself instead of others why
- 48:38to the pure all things are pure why in
- 48:41Christ Jesus the awakened Consciousness
- 48:43there is no condemnation awake from the
- 48:46sleep of condemnation and prove the
- 48:48principle of Life stop not only your
- 48:51judgment of others but your condemnation
- 48:53of
- 48:54yourself hear the revelation of the en
- 48:56ened I know and am persuaded by the Lord
- 48:59Christ Jesus that there is nothing
- 49:01unclean of itself but to him that seeth
- 49:03anything to be unclean to him it is
- 49:05unclean and again happy is the man who
- 49:08condemneth himself not in that which he
- 49:11alloweth stop asking yourself whether or
- 49:13not you are worthy or unworthy to claim
- 49:16yourself to be that which you desire to
- 49:17be you will be condemned by the world
- 49:20only as long as you condemn
- 49:22yourself you do not need to work out
- 49:25anything The Works are finished the
- 49:27principle by which all things are made
- 49:29and without which there is not anything
- 49:31made that is made is eternal you are
- 49:34this principle your awareness of being
- 49:36is this Everlasting law you have never
- 49:39expressed anything that you were not
- 49:41aware of being and you never will assume
- 49:43the consciousness of that which you
- 49:45desire to express claim it until it
- 49:48becomes a natural manifestation feel it
- 49:51and live within that feeling until you
- 49:53make it your
- 49:54nature here is a simp simple formula
- 49:58take your attention from your present
- 49:59conception of yourself and place it on
- 50:01that ideal of yours the ideal you had
- 50:03here to For Thought beyond your reach
- 50:06claim yourself to be your ideal not as
- 50:08something that you will be in time but
- 50:10as that which you are in the immediate
- 50:12present do this and your present world
- 50:15of limitations will disintegrate as your
- 50:17new claim Rises like the Phoenix from
- 50:19its ashes Be not Afraid nor dismayed by
- 50:23reason of this great multitude for the
- 50:25battle is not yours but Gods you do not
- 50:28fight against your problem your problem
- 50:30will only live as long as you are
- 50:32conscious of it take your attention away
- 50:35from your problem and the multitude of
- 50:37reasons why you cannot achieve your
- 50:38ideal concentrate your attention

- 51:22still and see the salvation of the Lord
- 51:25with you with you that particular
- 51:28Consciousness with which you are
- 51:29identified is the lord of the agreement
- 51:32he will without assistance establish the
- 51:34thing agreed upon on Earth can you in
- 51:37the face of the army of reasons why a
- 51:39thing cannot be done quietly enter into
- 51:42an agreement with the Lord that it is
- 51:43done can you now that you have found the
- 51:46Lord to be your awareness of being
- 51:48become aware that the battle is won can

- 52:18are made by such agreements and without
- 52:21such an agreement there is not anything
- 52:23made that is made I am that I am in
- 52:26Revelations it is recorded that a new
- 52:29Heaven and new Earth shall appear John
- 52:31shown this Vision was told to write it
- 52:34is done Heaven is your Consciousness and
- 52:37Earth its solidified State therefore
- 52:40accept as did John it is done all that
- 52:44is required of you who seek A Change Is
- 52:46to rise to a level of that which you
- 52:48desire without dwelling upon the manner
- 52:50of expression record that it is done by
- 52:53feeling the naturalness of being it here
- 52:56is an analogy that might help you to see
- 52:58this mystery suppose you entered a
- 53:00motion picture theater just as the
- 53:02feature picture came to its end all that
- 53:05you saw of the picture was the happy
- 53:07ending because you wanted to see the
- 53:09entire story you waited for it to unfold
- 53:11again with the anticlimactic sequence
- 53:14the hero is displayed as accused
- 53:16surrounded by false evidence and all
- 53:19that goes to ring tears from the
- 53:20audience but you secure in the knowledge
- 53:23of the ending remain calm with the
- 53:25understanding that regard regardless of
- 53:26the seeming direction of the picture the
- 53:29end has already been
- 53:30defined in like manner go to the end of
- 53:33that which you seek witness the happy
- 53:35end of it by consciously feeling you
- 53:37express and possess that which you
- 53:38desire to express and possess and you
- 53:41through faith already understanding the
- 53:43end will have confidence born of this
- 53:45knowledge this knowledge will sustain
- 53:47you through the necessary interval of
- 53:49time that it takes the picture to unfold
- 53:52ask no help of man feel it is done by
- 53:56consciously claiming yourself to be now
- 53:58that which is man you hope to
- 54:02be chapter 7 thy will be
- 54:07done not my will but thine be done Luke
- 54:1222:42 not my will but thine be done this
- 54:16resignation is not one of blind
- 54:18realization that I can of myself do
- 54:20nothing the father within me he doeth
- 54:23the work when man Wills he attempts to
- 54:26make something which does not now exist
- 54:27appear in time and space too often we
- 54:30are not aware of that which we are
- 54:32really doing we unconsciously state that
- 54:35we do not possess the capacities to
- 54:37express we predicate our desire upon the
- 54:40hope of acquiring the necessary
- 54:42capacities in future time I am not but I
- 54:45will be man does not realize that
- 54:48Consciousness is the Father which does
- 54:50the work so he attempts to express that
- 54:52which he is not conscious of being such
- 54:55struggles are doomed to failure only the
- 54:58present expresses itself unless I am
- 55:00conscious of being that which I seek I
- 55:03will not find it God your awareness is
- 55:06the substance and fullness of all God's
- 55:09will is the recognition of that which is
- 55:11not of that which will be instead of
- 55:14seeing the saying as thine will be done
- 55:16see it as thy will is done the works are
- 55:20finished the principle by which all
- 55:23things are made visible is eternal eyes
- 55:25have not seen nor ears heard neither
- 55:28hath it entered into the hearts of men
- 55:30the things which God hath prepared for
- 55:32those who love the law when a sculptor
- 55:35looks at a formless piece of marble he
- 55:37sees buried within its formless mass his
- 55:40finished piece of art the sculptor
- 55:42instead of making his Masterpiece merely
- 55:45reveals it by removing that part of the
- 55:47marble which hides his conception the
- 55:49same applies to you in your formless
- 55:52awareness lies buried all that you will
- 55:54ever conceive yourself to be the
- 55:56recognition of this truth will transform
- 55:58you from an unskilled laborer who tries
- 56:00to make it so to a great artist who
- 56:02recognizes it to be so your claim that
- 56:05you are now that which you want to be
- 56:07will remove the veil of human darkness
- 56:09and reveal your claim perfectly I am
- 56:12that God's will was expressed in the
- 56:14words of the Widow It is Well mank will
- 56:18would have been it will be well to State
- 56:22I shall be well is to say I am ill God
- 56:27the Eternal now is not mocked by words
- 56:29or vain repetition God continually
- 56:32personifies that which is thus the
- 56:34resignation of Jesus who made himself
- 56:36equal with God was turning from the
- 56:39recognition of lack which the future
- 56:41indicates with I shall be to the
- 56:43recognition of Supply by claiming I am
- 56:45that it is done thank you
- 56:48Father now you will see the wisdom in
- 56:51the words of the Prophet when he States
- 56:53let the weak say I am strong Joel 3:10
- 56:58man in his blindness will not heed the
- 57:00prophet's advice he continues to claim
- 57:03himself to be weak poor wretched and all
- 57:06the other undesirable expressions from
- 57:08which he is trying to free himself by
- 57:10ignorantly claiming that he will be free
- 57:12from these characteristics in the
- 57:13expectancy of the future such thoughts
- 57:16thwart the one law that can ever free
- 57:18him there is only one door through which
- 57:21that which you seek can enter your world
- 57:24I am the door when you say I am you are
- 57:28declaring yourself to be first person
- 57:30present tense there is no future to know
- 57:33that I am is to be conscious of being
- 57:36Consciousness is the only door unless
- 57:39you are conscious of being that which
- 57:40you seek you seek in
- 57:42vain if you judge after appearances you
- 57:45will continue to be enslaved by the
- 57:48evidence of your senses to break this
- 57:50hypnotic spell of the senses you are
- 57:52told go within and shut the door the
- 57:55door of the Sens must be tightly shut
- 57:57before your new claim can be honored
- 57:59closing the door of the senses is not as
- 58:02difficult as it appears to be at first
- 58:04it is done without
- 58:06effort it is impossible to serve two
- 58:09masters at the same time the master man
- 58:11serves is that which he is conscious of
- 58:14being I Am Lord and Master of that which
- 58:17I am conscious of being it is no effort
- 58:19for me to conjure poverty if I am
- 58:21conscious of being poor my servant
- 58:23poverty is compelled to follow me
- 58:26conscious of poverty As Long As I Am the
- 58:28Lord conscious of being
- 58:30poor instead of fighting against the
- 58:33evidence of the senses you claim
- 58:34yourself to be that which you desire to
- 58:36be as your attention is placed on this
- 58:39claim the doors of the senses
- 58:41automatically close against your former
- 58:43master that which you were conscious of
- 58:45being as you become lost in the feeling
- 58:47of being that which you are now claiming
- 58:49to be true of yourself the doors of the
- 58:51senses once more open revealing your
- 58:54world to be the perfect expression of
- 58:55that which you are conscious of being
- 58:58let us follow the example of Jesus who
- 59:00realized as man he could do nothing to
- 59:03change his present picture of lack he
- 59:06closed the door of his senses against
- 59:08his problem and went to his father the
- 59:11one to whom all things are possible
- 59:13having denied the evidence of his senses
- 59:15he claimed himself to be all that a
- 59:17moment before his senses told him he was
- 59:20not knowing that Consciousness expresses
- 59:22its likeness on Earth he remained in the
- 59:25claimed consci ious n until the doors
- 59:27his senses opened and confirmed the
- 59:30rulership of the Lord remember I am his
- 59:33Lord of all never again use the will of
- 59:35man which claims I will be be as
- 59:38resigned as Jesus and claim I am
- 59:44that chapter 8 no other
- 59:48God I am the first and I am the last and
- 59:52beside me is no God Isaiah 44: verse
- 59:566 I am the Lord thy God which brought
- 1:00:00thee out of the land of Egypt from the
- 1:00:02house of bondage Thou shalt have none
- 1:00:05other gods before me Deuteronomy 5: 6
- 1:00:09and
- 1:00:107 Thou shalt have no other God beside me
- 1:00:13as long as man entertains a belief in a
- 1:00:16power apart from himself so long will he
- 1:00:19rob himself of the being that he is
- 1:00:21every belief in Powers apart from
- 1:00:23himself whether for good or evil will
- 1:00:26become the mold of the Graven image
- 1:00:28worshiped the beliefs in the potency of
- 1:00:31drugs to heal diets to strengthen Monies
- 1:00:33to secure are the values or money
- 1:00:36changers that must be thrown out of the
- 1:00:38power he can then unfailingly manifest
- 1:00:40that quality this understanding throws
- 1:00:42out the money changers Temple ye are the
- 1:00:45Temple of the Living God a temple made
- 1:00:48without hands it is written my house
- 1:00:51shall be called of all Nations a House
- 1:00:53of Prayer but ye have made it a den of
- 1:00:55thief thieves the thieves who rob you
- 1:00:58are your own false beliefs it is your
- 1:01:01belief in a thing not the thing itself
- 1:01:03that aids you there is only one power I
- 1:01:06am he because of your belief in external
- 1:01:09things you think power into them by
- 1:01:11transferring the power that you are to
- 1:01:13the external thing realize you yourself
- 1:01:15are the power you have mistakenly given
- 1:01:17to Outer conditions the Bible compares
- 1:01:20the opinionated man to the camel who
- 1:01:22could not go through the needle eye the
- 1:01:24needles ey referred to was a small gate
- 1:01:26in the walls of Jerusalem which was so
- 1:01:28narrow that a camel could not go through
- 1:01:30it until relieved of its pack the rich
- 1:01:32man that is the one burdened with false
- 1:01:35human Concepts cannot enter the Kingdom
- 1:01:37of Heaven until relieved of his burden
- 1:01:39any more than could the camel go through
- 1:01:41this small gate man feels so secure in
- 1:01:45his man-made laws opinions and beliefs
- 1:01:47that he invests them with an authority
- 1:01:49they do not possess satisfied that his
- 1:01:52knowledge is all he remains unaware that
- 1:01:55all outward appearances are but states
- 1:01:57of mind externalized when he realizes
- 1:01:59that the consciousness of a quality
- 1:02:01externalizes that quality without the
- 1:02:03aid of any other or many values and
- 1:02:05establishes the one true value his own
- 1:02:08Consciousness the Lord is in his holy
- 1:02:11Temple Consciousness dwells within that
- 1:02:14which it is conscious of being am man is
- 1:02:17the Lord and his Temple knowing that
- 1:02:19Consciousness objectifies itself man
- 1:02:21must forgive all men for being that
- 1:02:23which they are he must realize that all
- 1:02:26are expressing without the aid of
- 1:02:27another that which they are conscious of
- 1:02:29being Peter the enlightened or
- 1:02:31disciplined man knew that a change of
- 1:02:33Consciousness would produce a change of
- 1:02:34expression instead of sympathizing with
- 1:02:36the Beggars of Life at the Temple's gate
- 1:02:38he declared Silver and Gold Have I None
- 1:02:41for thee but such as I have the
- 1:02:43consciousness of Freedom give I unto
- 1:02:46thee stir up the gift within you stop
- 1:02:50begging and claim yourself to be that
- 1:02:52which you decide to be do this and you
- 1:02:54too will jump from your crippled world
- 1:02:56into the world of Freedom singing
- 1:02:58praises to the Lord I am far greater is
- 1:03:02he that is in you than he that is in the
- 1:03:04world this is the Cry of everyone who
- 1:03:07finds his awareness of being to be God
- 1:03:09your recognition of this fact will
- 1:03:11automatically cleanse the temple your
- 1:03:13consciousness of the thieves and robbers
- 1:03:15restoring to you that dominion over
- 1:03:17things which you lost the moment you
- 1:03:19forgot the command Thou shalt have no
- 1:03:21other God beside me
- 1:03:25chapter 9 the foundation
- 1:03:28stone let every man take heed how he
- 1:03:31buildeth thereon for other foundations
- 1:03:34can no man lay that is laid which is
- 1:03:36Jesus Christ now if man build upon this
- 1:03:39Foundation gold silver precious stones
- 1:03:43wood hay stubble Every Man's work shall
- 1:03:47be made manifest for the day shall
- 1:03:49declare it 1 Corinthians 3: 10 and 11 12
- 1:03:5413
- 1:03:55the foundation of all expression is
- 1:03:58consciousness try as man will he cannot
- 1:04:02find a cause of manifestation other than
- 1:04:04his consciousness of being man thinks he
- 1:04:07has found the cause of disease in germs
- 1:04:09the cause of war in conflicting
- 1:04:11political ideologies and greed all such
- 1:04:14discoveries of man cataloged as the
- 1:04:16essence of wisdom are foolishness in the
- 1:04:19eyes of God there is only one power and
- 1:04:21this power is God Consciousness it kills
- 1:04:25it it makes alive it wounds it heals it
- 1:04:29does all things good bad or
- 1:04:32indifferent man moves in a world that is
- 1:04:35nothing more or less than his
- 1:04:37Consciousness subjectified not knowing
- 1:04:39this he Wars against his Reflections
- 1:04:41while he keeps alive the light and the
- 1:04:43images which project the reflections I
- 1:04:46am the light of the world I am
- 1:04:48Consciousness is the light that which I
- 1:04:50am conscious of being my conception of
- 1:04:53myself such as I am rich I am healthy I
- 1:04:57am free are the images the world is the
- 1:05:01mirror magnifying all that I am
- 1:05:03conscious of being stop trying to change
- 1:05:06the world since it is only the mirror
- 1:05:09man's attempt to change the world by
- 1:05:10force is as fruitless as breaking a
- 1:05:12mirror in the hope of changing his face
- 1:05:15leave the mirror and change your face
- 1:05:17leave the world alone and change your
- 1:05:20conceptions of yourself the reflection
- 1:05:22then will be
- 1:05:24satisfactory Freedom or imprisonment
- 1:05:27satisfaction or frustration can only be
- 1:05:29differentiated by the consciousness of
- 1:05:31being regardless of your problem its
- 1:05:34duration or its magnitude careful
- 1:05:36attention to these instructions will in
- 1:05:38an amazingly short time eliminate even
- 1:05:40the memory of the problem ask yourself
- 1:05:42this question how would I feel if I were
- 1:05:45free the very moment you sincerely ask
- 1:05:48this question the answer comes no man
- 1:05:50can tell another the satisfaction of his
- 1:05:52desire fulfilled it remains for each
- 1:05:55within himself to experience the feeling
- 1:05:57and joy of this automatic change of
- 1:05:59Consciousness the feeling or thrill that
- 1:06:02comes to one in response to his
- 1:06:03self-questioning is the father State of
- 1:06:05Consciousness or foundation stone upon
- 1:06:07which the conscious change is built just
- 1:06:10how this feeling will embody itself no
- 1:06:12one knows but it will the father
- 1:06:14Consciousness has ways that no man knows
- 1:06:17it is the unalterable law all things
- 1:06:21Express their nature as you wear a
- 1:06:23feeling it becomes your nature it might
- 1:06:25take a moment or a year it is entirely
- 1:06:28dependent upon the degree of conviction
- 1:06:31as doubts vanish and you can feel I am
- 1:06:33this you begin to develop the fruit or
- 1:06:36the nature of the thing you are feeling
- 1:06:37yourself to be when a person buys a new
- 1:06:40hat or pair of shoes he thinks everyone
- 1:06:42knows that they are new he feels
- 1:06:44unnatural with his newly acquired
- 1:06:46apparel until it becomes a part of him
- 1:06:49the same applies to the wearing of the
- 1:06:51new States Of Consciousness when you ask
- 1:06:53yourself the question how would I feel
- 1:06:56if my desire were at this moment
- 1:06:58realized the automatic reply until it is
- 1:07:00properly conditioned by time and use is
- 1:07:03actually disturbing the period of
- 1:07:05adjustment to realize this potential of
- 1:07:07Consciousness is comparable to the
- 1:07:09newness of the wearing apparel not
- 1:07:11knowing that Consciousness is ever outp
- 1:07:13picturing itself in conditions round
- 1:07:15about you like Lot's wife you
- 1:07:17continually look back upon your problem
- 1:07:19and again become hypnotized by its
- 1:07:21seeming
- 1:07:22naturalness heed the words of Jesus
- 1:07:25salvation leave all and follow me Let
- 1:07:28the dead bury the dead your problem
- 1:07:31might have you so hypnotized by its
- 1:07:33seeming reality and naturalness that you
- 1:07:35find it difficult to wear the new
- 1:07:36feeling or consciousness of your savior
- 1:07:39you must assume this garment if you
- 1:07:41would have
- 1:07:42results the stone Consciousness which
- 1:07:45the builders rejected would not wear is
- 1:07:48the Chief Cornerstone and other
- 1:07:50foundations no man can
- 1:07:54lay chap 10 to him that
- 1:07:58hath take heed therefore how ye hear for
- 1:08:01whosoever hath to him shall be given and
- 1:08:04whosoever hath not from him shall be
- 1:08:06taken even that which he Seth to have
- 1:08:08Luke
- 1:08:0988:18 the Bible which is the greatest
- 1:08:12psychological book ever written warns
- 1:08:14man to be aware of what he hears then
- 1:08:17follows this warning with the statement
- 1:08:19to him that hath it shall be given and
- 1:08:21to him that hath not it shall be taken
- 1:08:23away though many look upon this
- 1:08:24statement as is one of the most cruel
- 1:08:26and unjust of the sayings attributed to
- 1:08:28Jesus it Still Remains a just and
- 1:08:31merciful law based upon life's
- 1:08:32changeless principle of
- 1:08:34expression man's ignorance of the
- 1:08:37working of the law does not excuse him
- 1:08:39nor save him from the results law is
- 1:08:41impersonal and therefore no respector of
- 1:08:44persons man is warned to be selective in
- 1:08:47that which he hears and accepts as true
- 1:08:49everything that man accepts as true
- 1:08:51leaves an impression on his
- 1:08:53Consciousness and must in time be
- 1:08:54defined as proof or disproof perceptive
- 1:08:57hearing is the perfect medium through
- 1:08:59which man registers Impressions a man
- 1:09:02must discipline himself to hear only
- 1:09:04that which he wants to hear regardless
- 1:09:06of rumors or the evidence of his senses
- 1:09:09to the contrary as he conditions his
- 1:09:11perceptive hearing he will react only to
- 1:09:14those Impressions which he has decided
- 1:09:16upon this law never fails fully
- 1:09:19conditioned man becomes incapable of
- 1:09:21hearing other than that which
- 1:09:23contributes to his desire
- 1:09:26God as you have discovered is that
- 1:09:28unconditioned awareness which gives to
- 1:09:30you all that you are aware of being to
- 1:09:32be aware of being or having anything is
- 1:09:35to be or have that which you are aware
- 1:09:37of being upon this changeless principle
- 1:09:39all things rest it is impossible for
- 1:09:42anything to be other than that which it
- 1:09:44is aware of being to him that hath that
- 1:09:47which he is aware of being it shall be
- 1:09:49given good bad or indifferent it does
- 1:09:52not matter man receives multiplied a h
- 1:09:54hundredfold that which he is aware of
- 1:09:56being in keeping with this changeless
- 1:09:58law to him that hath not it shall be
- 1:10:01taken from him and added to the one that
- 1:10:03haveth the rich get richer and the poor
- 1:10:05get poorer you can only magnify that
- 1:10:08which you are conscious of
- 1:10:10being all things gravitate to that
- 1:10:13Consciousness with which they are in
- 1:10:14tune likewise all things disentangle
- 1:10:17themselves from that Consciousness with
- 1:10:19which they are out of tune divide the
- 1:10:21wealth of the world equally among all
- 1:10:23men and in a short time this equal
- 1:10:25division will be as originally
- 1:10:27disproportioned wealth will find its way
- 1:10:29back into the pockets of those from whom
- 1:10:31it was taken instead of joining the
- 1:10:34chorus of the Have Nots who insist on
- 1:10:36destroying those who have recognized
- 1:10:38this changeless law of expression
- 1:10:41consciously Define yourself as that
- 1:10:43which you
- 1:10:44desire once defined your conscious claim
- 1:10:47established continue in this confidence
- 1:10:49until the reward is received as surely
- 1:10:52as the day follows the night any
- 1:10:54attribute consciously claimed will
- 1:10:57manifest itself thus that which to the
- 1:10:59sleeping Orthodox world is a cruel and
- 1:11:02unjust law becomes to the enlightened
- 1:11:04one of the most merciful and just
- 1:11:06statements of
- 1:11:07truth I am come not to destroy but to
- 1:11:10fulfill nothing is actually destroyed
- 1:11:13any seeming destruction is a result of a
- 1:11:15change in Consciousness Consciousness
- 1:11:18ever fills full the state in which it
- 1:11:20dwells the state from which
- 1:11:22Consciousness is detached seems to those
- 1:11:24not familiar with this law to be
- 1:11:26destructive however this is only
- 1:11:28Preparatory to a new State of
- 1:11:31Consciousness claim yourself to be that
- 1:11:33which you want filled full nothing is
- 1:11:36destroyed all is fulfilled to him that
- 1:11:39hath it shall be
- 1:11:43given chapter 11
- 1:11:47Christmas Behold a virgin shall be with
- 1:11:50child and shall bring forth a son and
- 1:11:53they shall call his name Emanuel which
- 1:11:55being interpreted is God With Us Matt
- 1:12:00123 one of the most controversial
- 1:12:02statements in the New Testament concerns
- 1:12:04the Virgin conception and subsequent
- 1:12:06birth of Jesus a conception in which man
- 1:12:09had no part it is recorded that a virgin
- 1:12:12conceived a son without the aid of man
- 1:12:15then secretly and without effort gave
- 1:12:17birth to her conception this is the
- 1:12:19foundation upon which all Christendom
- 1:12:21rests the Christian world is asked to
- 1:12:24believe the story
- 1:12:25for man must believe the unbelievable to
- 1:12:28fully Express the greatness that he is
- 1:12:31scientifically man might be inclined to
- 1:12:33discard the whole Bible as untrue
- 1:12:35because his reason will not permit him
- 1:12:37to believe that the Virgin birth is
- 1:12:38physiologically possible but the Bible
- 1:12:40is a message of the soul and must be
- 1:12:42interpreted psychologically if man is to
- 1:12:45discover its true symbology man must see
- 1:12:47this story as a psychological drama
- 1:12:49rather than a statement of physical fact
- 1:12:52in so doing he will discover the Bible
- 1:12:54to be based on a law which if
- 1:12:56self-applied will result in a manifested
- 1:12:58expression transcending his wildest
- 1:13:00dreams of accomplishment to apply this
- 1:13:02law of
- 1:13:03self-expression man must be schooled in
- 1:13:05the belief and discipline to stand upon
- 1:13:07the platform that all things are
- 1:13:09possible to God the outstanding dramatic
- 1:13:12dates of the New Testament namely the
- 1:13:15birth death and resurrection of Jesus
- 1:13:18were timed and dated to coincide with
- 1:13:20certain astronomical phenomena the
- 1:13:22mystics who recorded this story noticed
- 1:13:24that at certain seasons of the Year
- 1:13:26beneficial changes on Earth coincided
- 1:13:28with astronomical changes above in
- 1:13:30writing this psychological drama they
- 1:13:32have personified the story of the Soul
- 1:13:35as the biography of man using these
- 1:13:37Cosmic changes they have marked the
- 1:13:39birth and resurrection of Jesus to
- 1:13:41convey that the same beneficial changes
- 1:13:43take place psychologically in the
- 1:13:45consciousness of man as he follows the
- 1:13:47law even to those who fail to understand
- 1:13:50it the story of Christmas is one of the
- 1:13:52most beautiful stories ever told when
- 1:13:55unfolded in the light of its Mystic
- 1:13:57symbology it is revealed as the true
- 1:14:00birth of every manifestation in the
- 1:14:02world this virgin birth is recorded as
- 1:14:05having taken place on December 25th or
- 1:14:07as certain secret societies celebrate it
- 1:14:10on Christmas Eve at midnight of December
- 1:14:1224th Mystics established this date to
- 1:14:15Mark the birth of Jesus because it was
- 1:14:16in keeping with the great Earthly
- 1:14:18benefits this astronomical change
- 1:14:19signifies the astronomical observations
- 1:14:22which prompted the authors of this drama
- 1:14:24to use these dates were all made in the
- 1:14:25northern hemisphere so from an
- 1:14:28astronomical point of view the reverse
- 1:14:29would be true if seen from the southern
- 1:14:32latitudes however this story was
- 1:14:34recorded in the north and therefore was
- 1:14:36based on Northern
- 1:14:38observation man very early discovered
- 1:14:40that the sun played a most important
- 1:14:42part in his life that without the sun
- 1:14:44physical life as he knew it could not be
- 1:14:47so these most important dates in the
- 1:14:49story of the life of Jesus are based
- 1:14:51upon the position of the sun as seen
- 1:14:53from the earth in the northern latitude
- 1:14:56after the Sun reaches its highest point
- 1:14:58in the heavens in June it gradually
- 1:15:00Falls Southward taking with it the life
- 1:15:03of the Plant World so that by December
- 1:15:05almost all of Nature has been stilled
- 1:15:07should the sun continue to fall
- 1:15:09Southward all nature would be stilled
- 1:15:11unto death however on December 25th the
- 1:15:15sun begins its great move northward
- 1:15:17bringing with it the promise of
- 1:15:19Salvation and life a new for the world
- 1:15:21each day as the sun rises higher in the
- 1:15:24heavens man gains confidence in being
- 1:15:26saved from death by cold and starvation
- 1:15:29for he knows that as it moves northward
- 1:15:31and crosses the equator all nature will
- 1:15:33rise again will be resurrected from its
- 1:15:35long winter sleep our day is measured
- 1:15:38from Midnight to midnight and since the
- 1:15:41visible day begins in the East and ends
- 1:15:43in the west the Ancients said the day
- 1:15:45was born of that constellation which
- 1:15:47occupied the Eastern Horizon at midnight
- 1:15:49on Christmas Eve or midnight of December
- 1:15:5224th the constellation Virgo is rising
- 1:15:55on the Eastern Horizon so it is recorded
- 1:15:58that this son and savior of the world
- 1:16:00was born of a virgin it is also recorded
- 1:16:03that this virgin mother was traveling
- 1:16:04through the night that she stopped at an
- 1:16:06inn and was given the only available
- 1:16:08room among the animals and there in a
- 1:16:10Manger where the animals fed the
- 1:16:12Shepherds found the holy
- 1:16:14Child the animals with whom the holy
- 1:16:16virgin was lodged are the holy animals
- 1:16:19of the zodiac there in that constantly
- 1:16:21moving circle of astronomical animals
- 1:16:23stands the holy mother Virgo and there
- 1:16:26you will see her every midnight of
- 1:16:28December 24th standing on the Eastern
- 1:16:30Horizon as the son and savior of the
- 1:16:32world starts his journey
- 1:16:34northward psychologically this birth
- 1:16:37takes place in man on that day when man
- 1:16:40discovers his Consciousness to be the
- 1:16:41son and savior of his world when man
- 1:16:44knows the significance of this mystical
- 1:16:45statement I am the light of the world he
- 1:16:49will realize that his I am or
- 1:16:51Consciousness is the son of his life
- 1:16:53which Sun radiates Imes upon the screen
- 1:16:55of space these images are in the
- 1:16:58likeness of that which he as man is
- 1:17:00conscious of being thus qualities and
- 1:17:03attributes which appear to move upon the
- 1:17:05screen of his world are really
- 1:17:06projections of this light from within
- 1:17:08himself the numberless unrealized hopes
- 1:17:11and Ambitions of man are the seeds which
- 1:17:13are buried within the Consciousness or
- 1:17:15virgin womb of man there they remain
- 1:17:17like the seeds of Earth held in the
- 1:17:20Frozen waste of winter waiting for the
- 1:17:22sun to move northward or for man to
- 1:17:24return return to the knowledge of who he
- 1:17:26is in returning he moves northward
- 1:17:28through recognition of his true self by
- 1:17:30claiming I am the light of the world
- 1:17:34when man discovers his Consciousness or
- 1:17:36I am to be God the savior of his world
- 1:17:40he will be as the sun in its northern
- 1:17:42passage all hidden urges and Ambitions
- 1:17:45will then be warmed and stimulated into
- 1:17:47Birth by this knowledge of his true self
- 1:17:50he will claim that he is that which her
- 1:17:52toor he hoped to be without the aid of
- 1:17:54any man he will Define himself as that
- 1:17:57which he desires to express he will
- 1:18:00discover that his I am is the Virgin
- 1:18:02conceiving without the aid of man that
- 1:18:04all conceptions of himself when felt and
- 1:18:07fixed in Consciousness will be embodied
- 1:18:09easily as living realities in his
- 1:18:12world man will one day realize that this
- 1:18:15whole drama takes place in his
- 1:18:16Consciousness that his unconditioned
- 1:18:19Consciousness or I am is the Virgin Mary
- 1:18:21Desiring to express that through this
- 1:18:23law of self-expression he defines
- 1:18:25himself as that which he desires to
- 1:18:27express and that without the help or
- 1:18:28cooperation of anyone he will Express
- 1:18:30that which he has consciously claimed
- 1:18:32and defined himself as being he will
- 1:18:34then understand why Christmas is fixed
- 1:18:36on December 25th why Easter is a movable
- 1:18:39date why upon the Virgin conception the
- 1:18:42whole of Christendom rests that his
- 1:18:43Consciousness is the Virgin womb or
- 1:18:45Bride of the Lord receiving impressions
- 1:18:48as self- impregnations and then without
- 1:18:50assistance embodying these impressions
- 1:18:52as the expressions of his life
- 1:18:57chapter 12 crucifixion and
- 1:19:01Resurrection I am the resurrection and
- 1:19:03the life he that believeth in me though
- 1:19:06he were dead yet shall he live D John
- 1:19:1111:25 The Mystery of the crucifixion and
- 1:19:13the resurrection is so interwoven that
- 1:19:15to be fully understood the two must be
- 1:19:18explained together for one determines
- 1:19:19the other this mystery is symbolized on
- 1:19:22Earth in the rituals of Good Friday and
- 1:19:24EAS Easter you have observed that the
- 1:19:26anniversary of this Cosmic event
- 1:19:28announced every year by the church is
- 1:19:30not a fixed date as are other
- 1:19:31anniversaries marking births and deaths
- 1:19:33but that this day changes from year to
- 1:19:35year falling anywhere from the 22nd day
- 1:19:38of March to the 25th day of
- 1:19:40April the day of Resurrection is
- 1:19:42determined in this manner the first
- 1:19:45Sunday after the full moon in Aries is
- 1:19:47celebrated as Easter Aries begins on the
- 1:19:5021st day of March and ends approximately
- 1:19:53on the 19th day of April the sun's entry
- 1:19:56into Aries marks the beginning of Spring
- 1:19:58the moon in its monthly Transit around
- 1:20:00the earth will form sometime between
- 1:20:02March 21st and April 25th in opposition
- 1:20:05to the sun which opposition is called a
- 1:20:07full moon the first Sunday after this
- 1:20:09phenomenon of the heavens occurs is
- 1:20:11celebrated as Easter the Friday
- 1:20:13preceding this day is observed As Good
- 1:20:16Friday this movable date should tell the
- 1:20:19observant one to look for some
- 1:20:20interpretation other than the one
- 1:20:22commonly accepted these days do not Mark
- 1:20:25the anniversaries of the death and
- 1:20:27resurrection of an individual who lived
- 1:20:29on earth seen from the Earth the Sun in
- 1:20:32its northern passage appears at the
- 1:20:33spring season of the year to cross the
- 1:20:35imaginary line man calls the Equator so
- 1:20:38it is said by the Mystic to be crfi or
- 1:20:41crucified that man might live it is
- 1:20:43significant that soon after this event
- 1:20:45takes place all nature begins to arise
- 1:20:48or resurrect itself from its long winter
- 1:20:50sleep therefore it may be concluded that
- 1:20:53this disturbance of nature at the this
- 1:20:54season of the year is due directly to
- 1:20:57this Crossing thus it is believed that
- 1:20:59the sun must shed its Blood on the
- 1:21:02Passover if these days Mark the death
- 1:21:04and resurrection of a man they would be
- 1:21:06fixed so that they would fall on the
- 1:21:08same date every year as all other
- 1:21:10historical events are fixed but
- 1:21:11obviously this is not the case these
- 1:21:14dates were not intended to Mark the
- 1:21:16anniversaries of the death and
- 1:21:17resurrection of Jesus the man the
- 1:21:20scriptures are psychological dramas and
- 1:21:22will reveal their meaning only as they
- 1:21:24are in interpreted psychologically these
- 1:21:26dates are adjusted to coincide with the
- 1:21:28cosmic change which occurs at this time
- 1:21:30of the year marking the death of the old
- 1:21:33year and the beginning or resurrecting
- 1:21:35of the new year or spring these dates do
- 1:21:37symbolize the death and resurrection of
- 1:21:39the Lord but this Lord is not a man it
- 1:21:42is your awareness of being it is
- 1:21:44recorded that he gave his life that you
- 1:21:46might live I am come that you might have
- 1:21:49life and that you might have it more
- 1:21:51abundantly Consciousness slays Itself by
- 1:21:53detaching itself from that which it is
- 1:21:55conscious of being so that it may live
- 1:21:57to that which it desires to be spring is
- 1:22:00the time of year when the millions of
- 1:22:02seeds which all winter lay buried in the
- 1:22:04ground suddenly spring into visibility
- 1:22:06that man might live and because the
- 1:22:09mystical drama of the crucifixion and
- 1:22:10Resurrection is in the nature of this
- 1:22:12yearly change it is celebrated at this
- 1:22:14spring season of the year but actually
- 1:22:17it is taking place every moment of time
- 1:22:20the being who is crucified is your
- 1:22:22awareness of being the cross is is your
- 1:22:24conception of yourself the resurrection
- 1:22:27is the lifting into visibility of this
- 1:22:29conception of
- 1:22:31yourself far from being a day of
- 1:22:33mourning Good Friday should be a day of
- 1:22:35rejoicing for there can be no
- 1:22:37Resurrection or expression unless there
- 1:22:39is first a crucifixion or impression the
- 1:22:41thing to be resurrected in your case is
- 1:22:44that which you desire to be to do this
- 1:22:46you must feel yourself to be the thing
- 1:22:48desired you must feel I am the
- 1:22:51resurrection and the life of the desire
- 1:22:54I am your awareness of being is the
- 1:22:56power resurrecting and making alive that
- 1:22:58which in your awareness you desire to be
- 1:23:01two shall agree on touching anything and
- 1:23:04I shall establish it on Earth the two
- 1:23:07agreeing are you your awareness the
- 1:23:09Consciousness Desiring and the thing
- 1:23:11desired when this agreement is attained
- 1:23:13the crucifixion is completed two have
- 1:23:16crossed or crucified each other I am in
- 1:23:19that Consciousness and that which you
- 1:23:20are conscious of being have joined and
- 1:23:22are one I am now nailed or fixed in the
- 1:23:25belief that I am this Fusion Jesus or I
- 1:23:28am is nailed upon the cross of that the
- 1:23:31nail that binds you upon the cross is
- 1:23:33the nail of feeling the mystical Union
- 1:23:35is now consummated and the result will
- 1:23:38be the birth of a child or the
- 1:23:39resurrection of a son bearing witness of
- 1:23:41his father Consciousness is United to
- 1:23:44that which it is conscious of being the
- 1:23:47world of expression is the child
- 1:23:49confirming this Union the day you cease
- 1:23:51to be conscious of being that which you
- 1:23:53are now conscious of being that day your
- 1:23:55child or expression shall die and return
- 1:23:57to the bosom of his father The Faceless
- 1:24:00formless
- 1:24:01awareness all expressions are the
- 1:24:03results of such mystical unions so the
- 1:24:06priests are correct when they say that
- 1:24:08true marriages are made in heaven and
- 1:24:10can only be dissolved in heaven but let
- 1:24:12me clarify this statement by telling you
- 1:24:14that heaven is not a locality it is a
- 1:24:17state of consciousness the Kingdom of
- 1:24:20Heaven is within you in heaven
- 1:24:22Consciousness God is touched by that
- 1:24:24which he is aware of being who has
- 1:24:26touched me for I perceive virtue has
- 1:24:29gone out of me the moment this touching
- 1:24:31feeling takes place there is an
- 1:24:33offspring or going out of me into
- 1:24:35visibility taking place the day man
- 1:24:38feels I am free I am wealthy I am strong
- 1:24:43God I am is touched or crucified by
- 1:24:46these qualities or virtues the results
- 1:24:48of such touching or crucifying will be
- 1:24:50seen in the birth or resurrection of the
- 1:24:52qualities felt for man must have visible
- 1:24:55confirmation of all that he is conscious
- 1:24:57of being now you will know why man or
- 1:24:59manifestation is always made in the
- 1:25:01image of God your awareness images and
- 1:25:04out pictures all that you are aware of
- 1:25:07being I am the Lord and besides me there
- 1:25:10is no God I am the resurrection and the
- 1:25:13life you shall become fixed in the
- 1:25:15belief that you are that which you
- 1:25:17desire to be before you have any visible
- 1:25:19proof that you are you will from the
- 1:25:21deep conviction which you have felt
- 1:25:23fixed within you know that you are and
- 1:25:25so without waiting for the confirmation
- 1:25:27of your senses you will cry it is
- 1:25:29finished then with a faith born of the
- 1:25:31knowledge of this changeless law you
- 1:25:33will be as one dead and inomed you will
- 1:25:35be still and unmoved in your conviction
- 1:25:38and confident that you will resurrect
- 1:25:39the qualities that you have fixed and
- 1:25:41are feeling within
- 1:25:44you chapter 13 the eye
- 1:25:49Impressions and as we have borne the
- 1:25:51image of the Earthly we shall also bear
- 1:25:53the IM image of the Heavenly 1C
- 1:25:581549 your Consciousness or your I am is
- 1:26:01the unlimited potential upon which
- 1:26:03impressions are made impressions are
- 1:26:05defined States pressed upon your I am
- 1:26:08your Consciousness or your I am can be
- 1:26:10likened to a sensitive film in the
- 1:26:13Virgin state it is potentially unlimited
- 1:26:16you can impress or record a message of
- 1:26:18Love or a hym of hate a wonderful
- 1:26:20Symphony or discordant Jazz it does not
- 1:26:23matter what the nature of the impression
- 1:26:24might be your I am will without a murmur
- 1:26:27willingly receive and sustain all
- 1:26:30Impressions your Consciousness is the
- 1:26:32one referred to in Isaiah 53:
- 1:26:363-7 he is despised and rejected of men a
- 1:26:40Man of Sorrows and acquainted with grief
- 1:26:42and we hid as it were our faces from him
- 1:26:45he was despised and we esteemed him not
- 1:26:48surely he hath borne our griefs and
- 1:26:50carried our sorrows yet we did esteem
- 1:26:53him stricken smitten of God and
- 1:26:56Afflicted but he was wounded for our
- 1:26:58transgressions he was bruised for our
- 1:27:01inquiries the chastisement of our peace
- 1:27:03was upon him and with his stripes we are
- 1:27:06healed all we like sheep have gone
- 1:27:09astray we have turned everyone to his
- 1:27:11own way and the Lord hath laid on him
- 1:27:13the iniquity of us all he was oppressed
- 1:27:17and he was afflicted yet he opened not
- 1:27:19his mouth he is brought as a I am to the
- 1:27:21slaughter and as a sheep before her
- 1:27:23shearers is dumb so he openeth not his
- 1:27:26mouth your unconditioned Consciousness
- 1:27:29is impersonal it is no respector of
- 1:27:32persons without thought or effort it
- 1:27:35automatically expresses every impression
- 1:27:37that is registered upon it it does not
- 1:27:39object to any impression that is placed
- 1:27:41upon it for although it is capable of
- 1:27:43receiving and expressing any and all
- 1:27:45defined States it remains forever an
- 1:27:48Immaculate and an unlimited
- 1:27:50potential your I am is the foundation
- 1:27:52upon which the defined state or
- 1:27:54conception of yourself rests but it is
- 1:27:57not defined by nor is it dependent on
- 1:27:59such defined States for its being your I
- 1:28:02am neither expands nor contracts nothing
- 1:28:05Alters or adds to it before any defined
- 1:28:08state was it is when all states cease to
- 1:28:11be it is all defined States or
- 1:28:14conceptions of yourself are but
- 1:28:15ephemeral expressions of your Eternal
- 1:28:18being to be impressed is to be I
- 1:28:20impressed I impressed first person
- 1:28:24present tense all expressions are the
- 1:28:26result of I'm pressence only as you
- 1:28:29claim yourself to be that which you
- 1:28:31desire to be will you express such
- 1:28:33desires let all desires become
- 1:28:36impressions of qualities that are not of
- 1:28:38qualities that will be I'm your
- 1:28:40awareness is God and God is the fullness
- 1:28:42of all the Eternal now I am take no
- 1:28:46thought of tomorrow tomorrow's
- 1:28:48expressions are determined by today's
- 1:28:50Impressions now is the accepted time the
- 1:28:53kingdom of Heaven is at hand Jesus
- 1:28:57salvation said I am with you always your
- 1:29:01awareness is the savior that is with you
- 1:29:03always but if you deny him he will deny
- 1:29:07you also you deny him by claiming that
- 1:29:09he will appear as Millions today are
- 1:29:11claiming that salvation is to come this
- 1:29:14is the equivalent of saying we are not
- 1:29:16saved you must stop looking for your
- 1:29:19savior to appear and begin claiming that
- 1:29:21you are already saved and the signs of
- 1:29:23your claim will follow when the Widow
- 1:29:26was asked what she had in her house
- 1:29:28there was recognition of substance her
- 1:29:30claim was a few drops of oil a few drops
- 1:29:34will become a gusher if properly claimed
- 1:29:36your awareness magnifies all
- 1:29:38Consciousness to claim that I shall have
- 1:29:41oil Joy is to confess that I have empty
- 1:29:44measures such impressions of lack
- 1:29:46produce lack God your awareness is no
- 1:29:49respector of persons purely impersonal
- 1:29:52God this awareness of all existence
- 1:29:55receives Impressions qualities and
- 1:29:57attributes defining Consciousness namely
- 1:30:00your
- 1:30:01impressions your every desire should be
- 1:30:03determined by need needs whether seeming
- 1:30:06or real will automatically be fulfilled
- 1:30:09when they are welcomed with sufficient
- 1:30:10intensity of purpose as defined desires
- 1:30:13knowing that your awareness is God you
- 1:30:15should look upon each desire as the
- 1:30:17spoken word of God telling you that
- 1:30:20which is Cease ye from man whose breath
- 1:30:22is in his nostrils
- 1:30:25for wherein is he to be accounted of we
- 1:30:28are ever that which is defined by our
- 1:30:30awareness never claim I shall be that
- 1:30:33let all claims from now on be I am that
- 1:30:36I am before we ask we are answered the
- 1:30:40solution of any problem associated with
- 1:30:42desire is obvious every problem
- 1:30:45automatically produces the desire of
- 1:30:48solution man is schooled in the belief
- 1:30:50that his desires are things against
- 1:30:52which he must struggle in his ignorance
- 1:30:55he denies his savior who is constantly
- 1:30:57knocking at the door of Consciousness to
- 1:30:59be let in I am the door would not your
- 1:31:01desire if realized save you from your
- 1:31:04problem to let your savior in is the
- 1:31:06easiest thing in the world things must
- 1:31:08be to be let in you are conscious of a
- 1:31:11desire the desire is something you are
- 1:31:14aware of now your desire though
- 1:31:16invisible must be affirmed by you to be
- 1:31:19something that is real God calth those
- 1:31:21things which be not are not seen as
- 1:31:24though they were claiming I am the thing
- 1:31:27desired I let the savior in behold I
- 1:31:31stand at the door and knock If any man
- 1:31:34hear my voice and open the door I will
- 1:31:36come into him and will Su with him and
- 1:31:38he with me every desire is the savior's
- 1:31:41knock at the door this knock every man
- 1:31:43hears man opens the door when he claims
- 1:31:47I am he see to it that you let your
- 1:31:49savior in let the thing desired press
- 1:31:52itself upon you until you are impressed
- 1:31:54with nness of your savior then you utter
- 1:31:57The Cry of Victory it is
- 1:32:01finished chapter 14
- 1:32:06circumcision in whom also ye are
- 1:32:08circumcised with the circumcision made
- 1:32:10without hands in putting off the body of
- 1:32:13the sins of the flesh by circumcision of
- 1:32:15Christ Colossians
- 1:32:172:1 circumcision is the operation which
- 1:32:20removes the veil that hides the head of
- 1:32:23creation the physical act has nothing to
- 1:32:25do with the spiritual act the whole
- 1:32:28world could be physically circumcised
- 1:32:30and yet remain unclean and blind leaders
- 1:32:32of the blind the spiritually circumcised
- 1:32:35have had the veil of Darkness removed
- 1:32:37and know themselves to be Christ the
- 1:32:39light of the
- 1:32:40world let me now perform the spiritual
- 1:32:43operation on you the reader this act is
- 1:32:46performed on the e8th day after birth
- 1:32:49not because this day has any special
- 1:32:50significance or in any way differs from
- 1:32:52other days but it is performed on this
- 1:32:54eth day because 8 is the figure which
- 1:32:56has neither beginning nor end
- 1:32:58furthermore the Ancients symbolized the
- 1:33:00eth numeral or letter as an enclosure or
- 1:33:03Veil within and behind which lay buried
- 1:33:05the mystery of creation thus the secret
- 1:33:08of the operation on the eth day is in
- 1:33:10keeping with the nature of the ACT which
- 1:33:12act is to reveal the Eternal head of
- 1:33:14creation that changeless something in
- 1:33:16which all things begin and end and yet
- 1:33:18which remains its Eternal self when all
- 1:33:19things cease to be this mysterious
- 1:33:22something is your awareness of being at
- 1:33:25this moment you are aware of being but
- 1:33:27you are also aware of being someone this
- 1:33:30someone is the veil that hides the being
- 1:33:32you really are you are first conscious
- 1:33:35of being then you are conscious of being
- 1:33:37man after the veil of man is placed upon
- 1:33:40your faceless self you become conscious
- 1:33:41of being a member of a certain race
- 1:33:43Nation family Creed Etc the veil to be
- 1:33:47lifted in spiritual circumcision is the
- 1:33:50veil of man but before this can be done
- 1:33:52you must cut away the adhesions of race
- 1:33:55Nation family and so on in Christ there
- 1:33:57is neither Greek nor Jew Bond nor free
- 1:34:01male nor female you must leave father
- 1:34:03mother brother and follow me to
- 1:34:06accomplish this you stop identifying
- 1:34:09yourself with these divisions by
- 1:34:10becoming indifferent to such claims
- 1:34:12indifference is the knife that severs
- 1:34:15feeling is the Tie that binds when you
- 1:34:17can look upon man as one grand
- 1:34:19Brotherhood without distinction of race
- 1:34:21or Creed then you will know that you you
- 1:34:23have severed these adhesions with these
- 1:34:26ties cut all that now separates you from
- 1:34:28your true being is your belief that you
- 1:34:30are man to remove this last Veil you
- 1:34:34drop your conception of yourself as Man
- 1:34:36by knowing yourself just to be instead
- 1:34:38of the consciousness of I am man let
- 1:34:41there be just I am faceless formless and
- 1:34:45without figure you are spiritually
- 1:34:46circumcised when the consciousness of
- 1:34:48man is dropped and your unconditioned
- 1:34:50awareness of being is revealed to you as
- 1:34:52the Everlasting head of creation a
- 1:34:55formless faceless all- knowing presence
- 1:34:58then unveiled and awake you will declare
- 1:35:00and know that I am as God and beside me
- 1:35:03this awareness there is no God this
- 1:35:06mystery is told symbolically in the
- 1:35:08Bible story of Jesus washing the feet of
- 1:35:11his disciples it is recorded that Jesus
- 1:35:13laid aside his garments and took a towel
- 1:35:16and girded himself then after washing
- 1:35:19his disciples feet he wiped them with
- 1:35:21the towel wherewith he was girded Peter
- 1:35:24protested the washing of his feet and
- 1:35:25was told that unless his feet were
- 1:35:27washed he would have no part of Jesus
- 1:35:30Peter on hearing this replied Lord not
- 1:35:33my feet only but also my hands and my
- 1:35:36head Jesus answered and said he that is
- 1:35:40washed needeth not save to wash his feet
- 1:35:42but is clean every wit Common Sense
- 1:35:45would tell the reader that a man is not
- 1:35:47clean all over just because his feet are
- 1:35:49washed therefore he should either
- 1:35:52discard the story as fantastic fastic or
- 1:35:54else look for its hidden meaning every
- 1:35:56story of the Bible is a psychological
- 1:35:58drama taking place in the consciousness
- 1:36:00of man and this one is no exception this
- 1:36:03washing of the disciples feet is the
- 1:36:05mystical story of spiritual circumcision
- 1:36:08or the revealing of the secrets of the
- 1:36:10Lord Jesus is called the Lord you are
- 1:36:13told that the lord's name is I am Jesus
- 1:36:17I am the Lord that is my name Isaiah
- 1:36:2042:8 the story states that Jesus was
- 1:36:23naked save for a towel which covered his
- 1:36:25loins or Secrets Jesus or Lord
- 1:36:28symbolizes your awareness of being whose
- 1:36:30secrets are hidden by the towel
- 1:36:32consciousness of man the foot symbolizes
- 1:36:34the understanding which must be washed

- 1:37:58also the father's house containing
- 1:38:00within itself all conceivable States Of
- 1:38:02Consciousness every conditioned State of
- 1:38:05Consciousness is called a
- 1:38:07mansion this conversation takes place
- 1:38:09within yourself your I am the
- 1:38:12unconditioned Consciousness is the
- 1:38:13Christ Jesus speaking to the conditioned
- 1:38:15self or the John Smith Consciousness I
- 1:38:18am John from a mystical point of view is
- 1:38:20two beings namely Christ and John so I
- 1:38:24go to prepare a place for you moving
- 1:38:26from your present State of Consciousness
- 1:38:28into that state desired it is a promise
- 1:38:31by your Christ or awareness of being to
- 1:38:33your present conception of yourself that
- 1:38:35you will leave your present
- 1:38:36Consciousness and appropriate
- 1:38:38another man is such a slave to time that
- 1:38:41if after he has appropriated a state of
- 1:38:43consciousness which is not now seen by
- 1:38:45the world and it the appropriated state
- 1:38:47does not immediately embody itself he
- 1:38:50loses faith in his unseen claim forth
- 1:38:52with he drops it and returns to his
- 1:38:54former static state of being because of
- 1:38:56this limitation of man I have found it
- 1:38:58very helpful to employ a specified
- 1:39:00interval of time in making this journey
- 1:39:03into a prepared
- 1:39:04Mansion wait but a little while we have
- 1:39:08all cataloged the different days of the
- 1:39:10week months of the year and Seasons by
- 1:39:13this I mean you and I have said time and
- 1:39:15again why today feels just like Sunday
- 1:39:18or Monday or Saturday we have also said
- 1:39:22in the middle of summer
- 1:39:24why this feels and looks like the fall
- 1:39:26of the Year this is positive proof that
- 1:39:28you and I have definite feelings
- 1:39:29associated with these different days
- 1:39:32months and seasons of the year because
- 1:39:34of this Association we can at any time
- 1:39:36consciously dwell in that day or season
- 1:39:39which we have selected do not selfishly
- 1:39:41Define this interval in days and hours
- 1:39:43because you are anxious to receive it
- 1:39:45but simply remain in the conviction that
- 1:39:46it is done time being purely relative
- 1:39:49should be eliminated entirely and your
- 1:39:51desire will be fulfilled
- 1:39:54this ability to dwell at any point in
- 1:39:56time permits us to employ time in our
- 1:39:58travel into the desired Mansion now I
- 1:40:01Consciousness go to a point in time and
- 1:40:03there prepare a place if I go to such a
- 1:40:05point in time and prepare a place I
- 1:40:07shall return to this point in time where
- 1:40:09I have left and I shall pick up and take
- 1:40:11you with me into that place which I have
- 1:40:13prepared that where I am there ye may
- 1:40:15also be let me give you an example of
- 1:40:18this travel suppose you had an intense
- 1:40:21desire like most men who are enslaved by
- 1:40:24time you might feel that you could not
- 1:40:26possibly realize so large a desire in a
- 1:40:29limited interval but admitting that all
- 1:40:30things are possible to God believing God
- 1:40:33to be the me within you or your
- 1:40:34consciousness of being you can say as
- 1:40:37John the first can do nothing but since
- 1:40:39all things are possible to God and God I
- 1:40:41know to be my consciousness of being I
- 1:40:44can realize my desire in a little while
- 1:40:46how my desire will be realized I do not
- 1:40:48as John no but by the very law of my
- 1:40:51being I do know that it shall be
- 1:40:54with this belief firmly established
- 1:40:56decide what would be a relative rational
- 1:40:58interval of time in which such a desire
- 1:41:00could be realized again let me remind
- 1:41:03you not to shorten the interval of time
- 1:41:05because you are anxious to receive your
- 1:41:07desire make it a natural interval no one
- 1:41:10can give you the time interval only you
- 1:41:13can say what the natural interval would
- 1:41:15be to you the interval of time is
- 1:41:17relative that is no two individuals
- 1:41:19would give the same measurement of time
- 1:41:21for the realization of their desire
- 1:41:24time is ever conditioned by man's
- 1:41:26conception of himself confidence in
- 1:41:28yourself as determined by conditioned
- 1:41:31Consciousness always shortens the
- 1:41:32interval of time if you were accustomed
- 1:41:35to Great accomplishments you would give
- 1:41:37yourself a much shorter interval in
- 1:41:39which to accomplish your desire than the
- 1:41:41man schooled in
- 1:41:42defeat if today were Wednesday and you
- 1:41:45decided that it would be quite possible
- 1:41:46for your desire to embody a new
- 1:41:48realization of yourself by Sunday then
- 1:41:51Sunday becomes the point in time that
- 1:41:52you would visit visit to make this visit
- 1:41:54you shut out Wednesday and let in Sunday
- 1:41:57this is accomplished by simply feeling
- 1:41:59that it is Sunday begin to hear the
- 1:42:01church bells begin to feel the quietness
- 1:42:04of the day and all that Sunday means to
- 1:42:06you actually feel that it is
- 1:42:08Sunday when this is accomplished feel
- 1:42:11the joy of having received that which on
- 1:42:14Wednesday was but a desire feel the
- 1:42:16complete thrill of having received it
- 1:42:19and then return to Wednesday the point
- 1:42:20in time you left behind you in doing
- 1:42:23this you created a vacuum in
- 1:42:24Consciousness by moving from Wednesday
- 1:42:26to Sunday nature abhorring vacuums
- 1:42:29rushes in to fill it thereby fashioning
- 1:42:32a mold in the likeness of that which you
- 1:42:34potentially create namely the joy of
- 1:42:37having realized your defined
- 1:42:39desire as you return to Wednesday you
- 1:42:41will be filled with a joyful expectancy
- 1:42:43because you have established the
- 1:42:45consciousness of that which must take
- 1:42:46place the following Sunday as you walk
- 1:42:48through the interval of Thursday Friday
- 1:42:50and Saturday nothing disturbs you
- 1:42:52regardless of conditions because you
- 1:42:54predetermined that which you would be on
- 1:42:56the Sabbath and that remains an
- 1:42:58unalterable
- 1:42:59conviction having gone before and
- 1:43:01prepared the place you have returned to
- 1:43:03John and are now taking him with you
- 1:43:05through the interval of 3 days into the
- 1:43:07prepared place that he might share your
- 1:43:08joy with you for where I am there ye may
- 1:43:11also
- 1:43:13be chapter 16 the Triune
- 1:43:17God and God said let us make man in our
- 1:43:21image after out likeness Genesis 1:
- 1:43:2526 having discovered God to be our
- 1:43:28awareness of being in this unconditioned
- 1:43:30changeless reality the I am to be the
- 1:43:32only Creator let us see why the Bible
- 1:43:35records a trinity as the creator of the
- 1:43:37world in the 26th verse of the first
- 1:43:40chapter of Genesis it is stated and God
- 1:43:42said let us make man in our image the
- 1:43:45churches refer to this plurality of gods
- 1:43:48as God the Father God the son and God
- 1:43:50the Holy Spirit what is meant by God the
- 1:43:53Father God the son and God the Holy
- 1:43:56Spirit they have never attempted to
- 1:43:58explain for they are in the dark
- 1:43:59concerning this
- 1:44:01mystery the father Son and Holy Spirit
- 1:44:04are three aspects or conditions of the
- 1:44:07unconditioned awareness of being called
- 1:44:08God the consciousness of being precedes
- 1:44:11the consciousness of being something
- 1:44:14that unconditioned awareness which
- 1:44:15preceded all states of awareness is God
- 1:44:18I am the three conditioned aspects or
- 1:44:21divisions of itself can best be told in
- 1:44:23this manner the receptive attitude of
- 1:44:26mind is that aspect which receives
- 1:44:28Impressions and therefore may be likened
- 1:44:30to a womb or
- 1:44:32mother that which makes the impression
- 1:44:34is the male or pressing aspect and is
- 1:44:37therefore known as
- 1:44:38father the impression in time becomes an
- 1:44:41expression which expression is ever the
- 1:44:43likeness and image of the impression
- 1:44:46therefore this objectified aspect is
- 1:44:48said to be the son bearing witness of
- 1:44:50his father mother an understanding of
- 1:44:52this mystery of the Trinity enables the
- 1:44:54one who understands it to completely
- 1:44:56transform his world and fashion it to
- 1:44:58his own
- 1:44:59liking here is a practical application
- 1:45:02of this mystery sit quietly and decide
- 1:45:05what it is you would like most to
- 1:45:06express or possess after you have
- 1:45:08decided close your eyes and take your
- 1:45:10attention completely away from all that
- 1:45:12would deny the realization of the thing
- 1:45:14desired then assume a receptive attitude
- 1:45:17of mind and play the game of supposing
- 1:45:19by imagining how you would feel if you
- 1:45:20were now to realize your desire
- 1:45:23begin to listen as though space were
- 1:45:25talking to you and telling you that you
- 1:45:27are now that which you desire to be this
- 1:45:29receptive attitude is the State of
- 1:45:31Consciousness that you must assume
- 1:45:33before an impression can be made as this
- 1:45:36pliable and impressive State of Mind is
- 1:45:37attained then begin to impress upon
- 1:45:40yourself the fact that you are that
- 1:45:41which you desire to be by claiming and
- 1:45:43feeling that you are now expressing and
- 1:45:45possessing that which you had decided to
- 1:45:47be and to have continue in this attitude
- 1:45:50until the impression is made as you
- 1:45:53contemplate being and possessing that
- 1:45:55which you have decided to be and to have
- 1:45:57you will notice that with every
- 1:45:58inhalation of breath a joyful thrill
- 1:46:00courses through your entire being this
- 1:46:02thrill increases in intensity as you
- 1:46:05feel more and more the joy of being that
- 1:46:07which you are claiming yourself to be
- 1:46:09then in one final deep inhalation your
- 1:46:11whole being will explode with the joy of
- 1:46:13accomplishment and you will know by your
- 1:46:15feeling that you are impregnated by God
- 1:46:17the father as soon as the impression is
- 1:46:20made open your eyes and return to the
- 1:46:22world that but a few moments before you
- 1:46:24had shut out in this receptive attitude
- 1:46:27of yours while you contemplated being
- 1:46:29that which you desired to be you were
- 1:46:31actually performing the spiritual Act of
- 1:46:33generation so you are now on your return
- 1:46:36from this silent meditation a pregnant
- 1:46:38being bearing a child or impression
- 1:46:40which child was immaculately conceived
- 1:46:42without the aid of man doubt is the only
- 1:46:45Force capable of disturbing the seed or
- 1:46:47impression to avoid a miscarriage of so
- 1:46:50wonderful a child walk in secrecy
- 1:46:52through the necessary interval of time
- 1:46:54that it will take the impression to
- 1:46:55become an expression tell no man of your
- 1:46:58spiritual romance lock your secret
- 1:47:00within you in Joy confident and happy
- 1:47:03that someday you will bear the Son Of
- 1:47:05Your Lover by expressing and possessing
- 1:47:07the nature of your impression then will
- 1:47:09you know the mystery of God said let us
- 1:47:12make man in our image you will know that
- 1:47:15the plurality of God's referred to is
- 1:47:17the three aspects of your own
- 1:47:19Consciousness and that you are the
- 1:47:20Trinity meeting in a spiritual conclave
- 1:47:22to Fashion a world in the image and
- 1:47:24likeness of that which you are conscious
- 1:47:26of
- 1:47:28being chapter 17
- 1:47:32prayer when thou prayest enter into thy
- 1:47:35closet and when thou Hast shut thy door
- 1:47:38pray to thy father which is in secret
- 1:47:40and thy father which seeth in secret
- 1:47:42shall reward thee openly Matt 6
- 1:47:466 what things soever ye desire when ye
- 1:47:50pray believe that ye receive them and ye
- 1:47:53shall have them Mark
- 1:47:5611:4 prayer is the most wonderful
- 1:47:59experience man can have unlike the daily
- 1:48:02murmurings of the vast majority of
- 1:48:03mankind in all lands who by their vain
- 1:48:06repetitions hope to gain the ear of God
- 1:48:08prayer is the Ecstasy of a spiritual
- 1:48:10wedding taking place in the Deep silent
- 1:48:13Stillness of Consciousness in its true
- 1:48:15sense prayer is God's marriage ceremony
- 1:48:18just as a maid on her wedding day
- 1:48:19relinquishes the name of her family to
- 1:48:21assume the name of her husband
- 1:48:23in like manner one who prays must
- 1:48:25relinquish his present name or nature
- 1:48:27and assume the nature of that for which
- 1:48:29he
- 1:48:29prays the gospels have clearly
- 1:48:31instructed man as to the performance of
- 1:48:33this ceremony in the following manner
- 1:48:36When you pray go within in secret and
- 1:48:38shut the door and your father who sees
- 1:48:40in secret will reward you openly the
- 1:48:42going within is the entering of the
- 1:48:44bridal chamber just as no one but the
- 1:48:46bride and groom are permitted to enter
- 1:48:48so holy a room as the bridal Suite on
- 1:48:50the night of the marriage ceremony
- 1:48:52likewise no one but the one who prays
- 1:48:54and that for which he prays are
- 1:48:56permitted to enter the holy hour of
- 1:48:57prayer as the bride and groom on
- 1:48:59entering the bridal Suite securely shut
- 1:49:01the door against the outside world so
- 1:49:03too must the one who enters the holy
- 1:49:05Hour of Prayer close the door of the
- 1:49:07senses and entirely shut out the world
- 1:49:09round about him this is accomplished by
- 1:49:11taking the attention completely away
- 1:49:13from all things other than that with
- 1:49:15which you are now in love the thing
- 1:49:17desired the second phase of this
- 1:49:19spiritual ceremony is defined in these
- 1:49:22words when ye pray believe that ye
- 1:49:24receive and ye shall receive as you
- 1:49:27joyfully contemplate being and
- 1:49:29possessing that which you desire to be
- 1:49:30and to have you have taken the second
- 1:49:33step and are therefore spiritually
- 1:49:34performing the acts of marriage and
- 1:49:36generation your receptive attitude of
- 1:49:39mind while praying or contemplating can
- 1:49:41be likened to a bride or womb for it is
- 1:49:43that aspect of mind which receives the
- 1:49:45Impressions that which you contemplate
- 1:49:47being is the groom for it is the name or
- 1:49:49nature you assume and therefore is that
- 1:49:51which leaves its impregnation so one
- 1:49:54dies to maidenhood or present nature as
- 1:49:56one assumes the name and nature of the
- 1:49:59impregnation lost in contemplation and
- 1:50:01having assumed the name and nature of
- 1:50:03the thing contemplated your whole being
- 1:50:06Thrills with the joy of being it this
- 1:50:08thrill which runs through your entire
- 1:50:10being as you appropriate the
- 1:50:11consciousness of your desire is the
- 1:50:13proof that you are both married and
- 1:50:15impregnated as you return from this
- 1:50:17silent meditation the door is once more
- 1:50:20opened upon the world you had left
- 1:50:22behind
- 1:50:23but this time you return as a pregnant
- 1:50:26bride you enter the world a changed
- 1:50:28being and although no one but you knows
- 1:50:30of this wonderful Romance the world will
- 1:50:33in a very short while see the signs of
- 1:50:34your pregnancy for you will begin to
- 1:50:37express that which you in your hour of
- 1:50:39Silence felt yourself to be the mother
- 1:50:42of the world or Bride of the Lord is
- 1:50:43purposely called Mary or water for water
- 1:50:46loses its identity as it assumes the
- 1:50:48nature of that with which it is mixed
- 1:50:51likewise Mary the receptive attitude of
- 1:50:53Mind must lose its identity as it
- 1:50:55assumes the nature of the thing desired
- 1:50:57only as one is willing to give up his
- 1:51:00present limitations and identity can he
- 1:51:02become that which he desires to be
- 1:51:04prayer is the formula by which such
- 1:51:06divorces and marriages are
- 1:51:09accomplished two shall agree as touching
- 1:51:11anything and it shall be established on
- 1:51:14Earth the two agreeing are you the bride
- 1:51:17and the thing desired the groom as this
- 1:51:19agreement is accomplished a son bearing
- 1:51:22witness of this Union will be born you
- 1:51:24begin to express and possess that which
- 1:51:26you are conscious of being praying then
- 1:51:29is recognizing yourself to be that which
- 1:51:32you desire to be rather than begging God
- 1:51:34for that which you
- 1:51:35desire millions of prayers are daily
- 1:51:38unanswered because man prays to a God
- 1:51:40who does not exist Consciousness being
- 1:51:43God one must seek in Consciousness for
- 1:51:45the thing desired by assuming the
- 1:51:47consciousness of the quality desired
- 1:51:49only as one does this will his prayers
- 1:51:52be answered to be conscious of being
- 1:51:54poor while praying for riches is to be
- 1:51:56rewarded with that which you are
- 1:51:57conscious of being namely poverty
- 1:52:00prayers to be successful must be claimed
- 1:52:02and appropriated assume the positive
- 1:52:05consciousness of the thing
- 1:52:07desired with your desire defined quietly
- 1:52:10go within and shut the door behind you
- 1:52:13lose yourself in your desire feel
- 1:52:16yourself to be one with it remain in
- 1:52:18this fixation until you have absorbed
- 1:52:20the life and Name by claiming and
- 1:52:21feeling yourself to be and to have that
- 1:52:23which you desired when you emerge from
- 1:52:25The Hour of Prayer you must do so
- 1:52:27conscious of being and possessing that
- 1:52:29which you here toor
- 1:52:33desired chapter 18 the 12
- 1:52:37disciples and when he had called unto
- 1:52:39him his 12 disciples he gave them power
- 1:52:42against unclean spirits to cast them out
- 1:52:45and to heal all manner of sickness and
- 1:52:47all manner of disease Matt 10 1 the 12
- 1:52:52disciples represent the 12 qualities of
- 1:52:54mind which can be controlled and
- 1:52:56disciplined by man if disciplined they
- 1:52:59will at all times obey the command of
- 1:53:02the one who has disciplined them these
- 1:53:0412 qualities in man are potentials of
- 1:53:07every mind undisciplined their actions
- 1:53:10resemble more the actions of a mob than
- 1:53:12they do of a trained and disciplined
- 1:53:14Army all the storms and confusions that
- 1:53:16engulf man can be traced directly to
- 1:53:19these 12 ill- rated characteristics of
- 1:53:21the human mind in it present slumbering
- 1:53:23State until they are awakened and
- 1:53:25disciplined they will permit every rumor
- 1:53:28and sensuous emotion to move them when
- 1:53:31these 12 are disciplined and brought
- 1:53:33under control the one who accomplishes
- 1:53:35this control will say to them Hereafter
- 1:53:38I call you not slaves but friends he
- 1:53:41knows that from that moment on each
- 1:53:43acquired disciplined attribute of mind
- 1:53:45will befriend and protect him the names
- 1:53:48of the 12 qualities reveal their Natures
- 1:53:51these names are not given to them until
- 1:53:53they are called to discipleship they are
- 1:53:56Simon who was later surnamed Peter
- 1:53:59Andrew James John Philip Bartholomew

- 1:54:07thus Simon the Canaanite and
- 1:54:10Judas the First Quality to be called and
- 1:54:13disciplined is Simon or the attribute of
- 1:54:15hearing this faculty when lifted to the
- 1:54:18level of a disciple permits only such
- 1:54:20Impressions to reach consciousness as
- 1:54:22those which his hearing has commanded
- 1:54:24him to let enter no matter what the
- 1:54:26wisdom of man might suggest or the
- 1:54:28evidence of his senses convey if such
- 1:54:31suggestions and ideas are not in keeping
- 1:54:33with that which he hears he remains
- 1:54:35unmoved this one has been instructed by
- 1:54:37his Lord and made to understand that
- 1:54:39every suggestion he permits to pass his
- 1:54:41gate will on reaching his Lord and
- 1:54:43Master his Consciousness leave its
- 1:54:46impression there which impression Must
- 1:54:48In Time become an
- 1:54:50expression the instruction to Simon is
- 1:54:52that he should permit only dignified and
- 1:54:54honorable visitors or Impressions to
- 1:54:56enter the house consciousness of his
- 1:54:59Lord no mistake can be covered up or
- 1:55:01hidden from his master for every
- 1:55:04expression of Life tells his Lord whom
- 1:55:06he consciously or unconsciously
- 1:55:08entertained when Simon by his Works
- 1:55:11proves himself to be a true and faithful
- 1:55:13disciple then he receives the surname of
- 1:55:15Peter or the rock the unmoved disciple
- 1:55:18the one who cannot be bribed or coerced
- 1:55:20by any visitor he he is called by his
- 1:55:23Lord Simon Peter the one who Faithfully
- 1:55:25hears the commands of his Lord and
- 1:55:27besides which commands he hears not it
- 1:55:30is this Simon Peter who discovers the I
- 1:55:33am to be Christ and for his Discovery is
- 1:55:35given the keys to heaven and is made the
- 1:55:37foundation stone upon which the temple
- 1:55:39of God rests buildings must have firm
- 1:55:42foundations and only the disciplined
- 1:55:43hearing can on learning that the I am is
- 1:55:46Christ remain firm and unmoved in the
- 1:55:48knowledge that I am Christ and beside me
- 1:55:50there is no savior
- 1:55:53the second quality to be called to
- 1:55:54discipleship is Andrew or courage as the
- 1:55:57First Quality faith in oneself is
- 1:56:00developed it automatically calls into
- 1:56:02being its brother courage faith in
- 1:56:04oneself which asks no man's help but
- 1:56:07quietly and alone appropriates the
- 1:56:09consciousness of the quality desired and
- 1:56:11in spite of reason or the evidence of
- 1:56:13his senses to the contrary continues
- 1:56:15faithful patiently waiting in the
- 1:56:18knowledge that his unseen claim if
- 1:56:19sustained must be realized such Faith
- 1:56:22develops a courage and strength of
- 1:56:24character that are beyond the wildest
- 1:56:26dreams of the undisciplined man whose
- 1:56:28faith is in things
- 1:56:29seen the faith of the undisciplined man
- 1:56:32cannot really be called faith for if the
- 1:56:35armies medicines or wisdom of man in
- 1:56:37which his faith is placed be taken from
- 1:56:39him his faith and courage go with it but
- 1:56:42from the disciplined one the whole world
- 1:56:44could be taken and yet he would remain
- 1:56:46faithful in the knowledge that the State
- 1:56:48of Consciousness in which he abides Must
- 1:56:50In Due season embody itself this courage
- 1:56:53is Peter's brother Andrew the disciple
- 1:56:55who knows what it is to dare to do and
- 1:56:58to be
- 1:56:59silent the next two who are called are
- 1:57:01also related these are the brothers
- 1:57:04James and John James the just the
- 1:57:06righteous judge and his brother John the

- 1:57:11administered with love ever turning the
- 1:57:14other cheek and at all times returning
- 1:57:16good for evil love for hate nonviolence
- 1:57:19for
- 1:57:20violence the disciple James
- 1:57:22symbol of a disciplined judgment must
- 1:57:25when raised to the high office of a
- 1:57:26supreme judge be blindfolded that he may
- 1:57:29not be influenced by the flesh nor judge
- 1:57:31after the appearances of being
- 1:57:33disciplined judgment is administered by
- 1:57:35one who is not influenced by appearances
- 1:57:38the one who has called these brothers to
- 1:57:39discipleship continues faithful to his
- 1:57:42command to hear only that which he has
- 1:57:44been commanded to hear namely The Good
- 1:57:47the man who has this quality of his mind
- 1:57:49disciplined is incapable of hearing and
- 1:57:51accepting as true anything either of
- 1:57:53himself or another which does not on the
- 1:57:55hearing fill his heart with love these
- 1:57:58two disciples or aspects of the Mind are
- 1:58:01one and Inseparable when awakened such a
- 1:58:04disciplined one forgives all men for
- 1:58:06being that which they are he knows as a
- 1:58:09wise judge that every man perfectly
- 1:58:11expresses that which he is as man
- 1:58:13conscious of being he knows that upon
- 1:58:15the changeless foundation of
- 1:58:16Consciousness all manifestation rests
- 1:58:19that changes of expression can be
- 1:58:20brought about only through through
- 1:58:22changes of
- 1:58:23Consciousness with neither condemnation
- 1:58:25nor criticism these disciplined
- 1:58:27qualities of the Mind permit everyone to
- 1:58:30be that which he is however although
- 1:58:32allowing this perfect freedom of choice
- 1:58:34to all they are nevertheless ever
- 1:58:36watchful to see that they themselves
- 1:58:37prophesy and do both for others and
- 1:58:40themselves only such things which when
- 1:58:42expressed glorify dignify and give joy
- 1:58:44to the
- 1:58:45expressor the fifth quality called to
- 1:58:48discipleship is Phillip this one asked
- 1:58:51to be shown the father
- 1:58:52the awakened man knows that the father
- 1:58:54is the State of Consciousness in which
- 1:58:56man dwells and that this state or father
- 1:58:59can be seen only as it is expressed he
- 1:59:01knows himself to be the perfect likeness
- 1:59:03or image of that Consciousness with
- 1:59:05which he is identified so he declares no
- 1:59:09man has at any time seen my father but I
- 1:59:12the son who dwelleth in his bosom have
- 1:59:14revealed him therefore when you see me
- 1:59:16the son you see my father for I come to
- 1:59:19Bear witness of my father I and my
- 1:59:21father ious and its expression God and
- 1:59:24man are
- 1:59:25one this aspect of the mind when
- 1:59:27disciplined persists until ideas
- 1:59:30Ambitions and desires become embodied
- 1:59:32realities this is the quality which
- 1:59:35states yet in my flesh shall I see God
- 1:59:38it knows how to make the word flesh how
- 1:59:40to give form to the
- 1:59:42formless the sixth disciple is called
- 1:59:45Bartholomew this quality is the
- 1:59:47imaginative faculty which quality of the
- 1:59:50mind when Once awake distinguishes one
- 1:59:52from the masses an awakened imagination
- 1:59:55places the one so awakened Head and
- 1:59:57Shoulders above the average man giving
- 2:00:00him the appearance of a Beacon Light in
- 2:00:02a world of darkness no quality so
- 2:00:04separates man from Man as does the
- 2:00:06disciplined imagination this is the
- 2:00:08separation of the wheat from the chaff
- 2:00:11those who have given most to society are
- 2:00:13our artists scientists inventors and
- 2:00:16others with vivid
- 2:00:18imaginations should a survey be made to
- 2:00:20determine the reason why so many
- 2:00:22seemingly educated men and women fail in
- 2:00:24their after colle years or should it be
- 2:00:26made to determine the reason for the
- 2:00:28different earning powers of the masses
- 2:00:30there would be no doubt but that
- 2:00:31imagination played the important part
- 2:00:33such a survey would show that it is
- 2:00:35Imagination which makes one a leader
- 2:00:37while the lack of it makes one a
- 2:00:39follower instead of developing the
- 2:00:42imagination of man our educational
- 2:00:44system often times stifles it by
- 2:00:46attempting to put into the mind of man
- 2:00:48the wisdom he seeks it forces him to
- 2:00:51memorize a number of textbooks which all
- 2:00:53too soon are disproved by later
- 2:00:55textbooks education is not accomplished
- 2:00:58by putting something into man its
- 2:01:00purpose is to draw out of man the wisdom
- 2:01:02which is latent within him May the
- 2:01:04reader call Bartholomew to discipleship
- 2:01:07for only as this quality is raised to
- 2:01:09discipleship will you have the capacity
- 2:01:11to conceive ideas that will lift you
- 2:01:13beyond the limitations of man the
- 2:01:15seventh is called Thomas this
- 2:01:18disciplined quality doubts or denies
- 2:01:20every rumor and suggestion that are not
- 2:01:22in harmony with that which Simon Peter
- 2:01:24has been commanded to let enter the man
- 2:01:26who is conscious of being healthy not
- 2:01:28because of inherited Health diets or
- 2:01:30climate but because he is awakened and
- 2:01:32knows the State of Consciousness in
- 2:01:34which he lives will in spite of the
- 2:01:36conditions of the world continue to
- 2:01:38express Health he could hear through the
- 2:01:40Press radio and wise men of the world
- 2:01:43that a plague was sweeping the Earth and
- 2:01:45yet he would remain unmoved and
- 2:01:47unimpressed Thomas the doubter when
- 2:01:49disciplined would deny that sickness or
- 2:01:52anything else which was not in sympathy
- 2:01:54with the Consciousness to which he
- 2:01:55belonged had any power to affect him
- 2:01:58this quality of denial when disciplined
- 2:02:01protects man from receiving Impressions
- 2:02:03that are not in harmony with his nature
- 2:02:06he adopts an attitude of total
- 2:02:08indifference to all suggestions that are
- 2:02:09foreign to that which he desires to
- 2:02:11express discipline denial is not a fight
- 2:02:14or a struggle but total
- 2:02:17indifference Matthew the eth is the gift
- 2:02:19of God this quality of the Mind mind
- 2:02:22reveals man's desires as gifts of God
- 2:02:25the man who has called this disciple
- 2:02:26into being knows that every desire of
- 2:02:28his heart is a gift from heaven and that
- 2:02:31it contains both the power and the plan
- 2:02:33of its self-expression such a man never
- 2:02:35questions the manner of its expression
- 2:02:38he knows that the plan of expression is
- 2:02:40never revealed to man for God's ways or
- 2:02:42past finding out he fully accepts his
- 2:02:45desires as gifts already received and
- 2:02:47goes his way in peace confident that
- 2:02:49they shall
- 2:02:50appear the ninth disciple is called
- 2:02:53James the son of alfus this is the
- 2:02:56quality of discernment a clear and
- 2:02:58ordered mind is the voice which calls
- 2:03:00this disciple into being this faculty
- 2:03:03perceives that which is not revealed to
- 2:03:05the eye of man this disciple judges not
- 2:03:08from appearances for it has the capacity
- 2:03:10to function in the realm of causes and
- 2:03:12so is never misled by
- 2:03:15appearances Clairvoyance is the faculty
- 2:03:17which is awakened when this quality is
- 2:03:19developed and disciplined not the CL
- 2:03:21voyance of the medium Mystic Seance
- 2:03:23rooms but the true Clairvoyance or clear
- 2:03:26seeeing of the Mystic that is this
- 2:03:28aspect of the mind has the capacity to
- 2:03:31interpret that which is seen discernment
- 2:03:33or the capacity to diagnose is the
- 2:03:35quality of James the son of
- 2:03:37alfus thus the 10th is the disciple of
- 2:03:41Praise a quality in which the
- 2:03:43undisciplined man is woefully lacking
- 2:03:45when this quality of praise and
- 2:03:47thanksgiving is awake within man he
- 2:03:49walks with the words thank you you
- 2:03:52father ever on his lips he knows that
- 2:03:55his thanks for Things Not Seen opens the
- 2:03:57windows of heaven and permits gifts
- 2:03:59Beyond his capacity to receive to be
- 2:04:01poured upon him the man who is not
- 2:04:04thankful for things received is not
- 2:04:06likely to be the recipient of many gifts
- 2:04:08from the same Source until this quality
- 2:04:11of the mind is disciplined man will not
- 2:04:14see the Desert Blossom as the rose
- 2:04:16praise and thanksgiving are to the
- 2:04:18invisible gifts of God one's desires
- 2:04:21what rain in son are to the Unseen seeds
- 2:04:23in the bosom of the Earth the 11th
- 2:04:26quality called is Simon of Canaan a good
- 2:04:29key phrase for this disciple is hearing
- 2:04:31good news Simon of Canaan or Simon from
- 2:04:34the land of milk and honey when called
- 2:04:36to discipleship is proof that the one
- 2:04:39who calls this faculty into being has
- 2:04:41become conscious of the Abundant Life he
- 2:04:43can say with the psalmist David thou
- 2:04:46preparest a table before me in the
- 2:04:47presence of mine enemies thou anointest
- 2:04:50my head with oil my cup runneth over
- 2:04:53this disciplined aspect of the mind is
- 2:04:55incapable of hearing anything other than
- 2:04:57good news and so is well qualified to
- 2:04:59preach the gospel or good spell the 12th
- 2:05:03and last of the disciplined qualities of
- 2:05:05the mind is called Judas when this
- 2:05:07quality is awake man knows that he must
- 2:05:10die to that which he is before he can
- 2:05:12become that which he desires to be so it
- 2:05:14is said of this disciple that he
- 2:05:16committed suicide which is the mystic's
- 2:05:18way of telling the initiated that Judas
- 2:05:20is the discipline aspect of Detachment
- 2:05:23this one knows that his I am or
- 2:05:25Consciousness is his savior so he lets
- 2:05:27all other saviors go this quality when
- 2:05:30disciplined gives one the strength to
- 2:05:32let go the man who has called Judas into
- 2:05:35being has learned how to take his
- 2:05:37attention away from problems or
- 2:05:39limitations and to place it upon that
- 2:05:41which is the solution or savior except
- 2:05:43ye be born again you cannot in any wise
- 2:05:46enter the Kingdom of Heaven no greater
- 2:05:48love hath man than this that he give his
- 2:05:51life for a friend when man realizes that
- 2:05:53the quality desired if realized would
- 2:05:56save and befriend him he willingly gives
- 2:05:58up his life present conception of
- 2:06:00himself for his friend by detaching his
- 2:06:02Consciousness from that which he is
- 2:06:04conscious of being and assuming the
- 2:06:05consciousness of that which he desires
- 2:06:07to be Judas the one whom the world in
- 2:06:10its ignorance has blackened will when
- 2:06:12man awakes from his undisciplined State
- 2:06:15be placed on high for God is love and no
- 2:06:17greater love has a man than tins that he
- 2:06:19laid down his life for a friend until
- 2:06:21man lets go of that which he is now
- 2:06:23conscious of being he will not become
- 2:06:26that which he desires to be and Judas is
- 2:06:28the one who accomplishes this through
- 2:06:30suicide or
- 2:06:31Detachment these are the 12 qualities
- 2:06:34which were given to man in the
- 2:06:36foundation of the world man's duty is to
- 2:06:38raise them to the level of discipleship
- 2:06:41when this is accomplished man will say I
- 2:06:44have finished the work which thou gavest
- 2:06:46me to do I have glorified thee on Earth
- 2:06:48and now oh Father glorify the th me with
- 2:06:52thine own self with the glory which I
- 2:06:54had with thee before the world
- 2:06:57was chapter 19 liquid
- 2:07:01light in him we live and move and have
- 2:07:04our being acts 17:
- 2:07:0828 psychically this world appears as an
- 2:07:11ocean of light containing within itself
- 2:07:13all things including man as pulsating
- 2:07:17bodies enveloped in liquid light the
- 2:07:19biblical story of the flood is the state
- 2:07:21in which man lives man is actually
- 2:07:24inundated in an ocean of liquid light in
- 2:07:26which countless numbers of light beings
- 2:07:29move the story of the flood is really
- 2:07:31being enacted today man is the ark
- 2:07:34containing within himself the male
- 2:07:36female principles of every living thing
- 2:07:38the dove or idea which is sent out to
- 2:07:41find dry land is man's attempt to embody
- 2:07:43his ideas man's ideas resemble birds in
- 2:07:46Flight like the dove in the story
- 2:07:49returning to Man without finding a place
- 2:07:51to to rest if man will not let such
- 2:07:53fruitless searches discourage him one
- 2:07:56day the bird will return with a green
- 2:07:58sprig after assuming the consciousness
- 2:08:00of the thing desired he will be
- 2:08:02convinced that it is so and he will feel
- 2:08:05and know that he is that which he has
- 2:08:06consciously appropriated even though it
- 2:08:09is not yet confirmed by his senses one
- 2:08:11day man will become so identified with
- 2:08:13his conception that he will know it to
- 2:08:15be himself and he will declare I am
- 2:08:18asterisk I am that which I desire to be
- 2:08:21I am that I am he will find that as he
- 2:08:24does so he will begin to embody his
- 2:08:26desire the dove or desire will this time
- 2:08:28find Dryland thereby realizing the
- 2:08:31mystery of the word made
- 2:08:33flesh everything in the world is a
- 2:08:35crystallization of this liquid light I
- 2:08:38am the light of the world your awareness
- 2:08:41of being is the liquid light of the
- 2:08:43world which crystallizes into the
- 2:08:45conceptions you have of
- 2:08:46yourself your unconditioned awareness of
- 2:08:49being first conceived itself in liquid
- 2:08:51liid light which is the initial velocity
- 2:08:54of the universe all things from the
- 2:08:56highest to the lowest vibrations or
- 2:08:57expressions of Life are nothing more
- 2:08:59than the different vibrations of
- 2:09:00velocities of this initial velocity gold
- 2:09:04silver iron wood flesh Etc are only
- 2:09:07different expressions or velocities of
- 2:09:09this one substance liquid
- 2:09:11light all things are crystallized liquid
- 2:09:14light the differentiation or Infinity of
- 2:09:17expression is caused by the conceiver
- 2:09:19desire to know himself your your
- 2:09:21conception of yourself automatically
- 2:09:23determines the velocity necessary to
- 2:09:25express that which you have conceived
- 2:09:27yourself to be the world is an ocean of
- 2:09:30liquid light in countless different
- 2:09:32states of
- 2:09:35crystallization Chapter 20 The Breath of
- 2:09:39Life did the Prophet Elijah really
- 2:09:42restore to life the dead child of the
- 2:09:44Widow this story along with all the
- 2:09:47other stories of the Bible is a
- 2:09:49psychological drama which takes place in
- 2:09:51the consciousness of man the Widow
- 2:09:53symbolizes every man and woman in the
- 2:09:55world the dead child represents the
- 2:09:57frustrated desires and Ambitions of man
- 2:10:00while the Prophet Elijah symbolizes the
- 2:10:03god power within man or man's awareness
- 2:10:06of being the story tells us that the
- 2:10:09prophet took the dead child from The
- 2:10:10Widow's bosom and carried him into an
- 2:10:12upper room as he entered this upper room
- 2:10:15he closed the door behind them placing
- 2:10:18the child upon a bed he breathed life
- 2:10:20into him returning to the mother he gave
- 2:10:23her the child and said woman thy son
- 2:10:26liveth man's desires can be symbolized
- 2:10:29as the dead child the mere fact that he
- 2:10:32desires is positive proof that the thing
- 2:10:34desired is not yet a living reality in
- 2:10:37his world he tries in every conceivable
- 2:10:40way to nurse this desire into reality to
- 2:10:42make it live but finds in the end that
- 2:10:45all attempts are
- 2:10:47fruitless most men are not aware of the
- 2:10:50existence of the infinite power within
- 2:10:52themselves as the prophet they remain
- 2:10:54indefinitely with a dead child in their
- 2:10:56arms not realizing that the desire is
- 2:10:59the positive indication of Limitless
- 2:11:01capacities for its
- 2:11:03fulfillment let man once recognize that
- 2:11:05his Consciousness is a prophet who
- 2:11:07breathes life into all that he is
- 2:11:08conscious of being and he will close the
- 2:11:10door of his senses against his problem
- 2:11:12and fix his attention solely on that
- 2:11:14which he desires knowing that by so
- 2:11:16doing his desires are certain to be
- 2:11:18realized he will discover recognition to
- 2:11:20be the breath of life for he will
- 2:11:22perceive as he consciously claims
- 2:11:24himself to be now expressing or
- 2:11:25possessing all he desires to be or to
- 2:11:27have that he will be breathing the
- 2:11:29breath of life into his desire the
- 2:11:31quality claimed for the desire in a way
- 2:11:33unknown to him will begin to move and
- 2:11:36become a living reality in his
- 2:11:38world yes the Prophet Elijah lives
- 2:11:41forever as man's Limitless consciousness
- 2:11:43of being the Widow as his limited
- 2:11:45consciousness of being and the child as

- 2:11:52chapter 21 Daniel in the Lion's
- 2:11:56Den thy God whom thou servest
- 2:11:59continually he will deliver thee dot
- 2:12:02Daniel
- 2:12:036:16 the story of Daniel is the story of
- 2:12:07every man it is recorded that Daniel
- 2:12:09while locked in the Lion's Den turned
- 2:12:12his back upon the hungry beasts and with
- 2:12:14his vision turned toward the light
- 2:12:16coining from above he prayed to The One
- 2:12:18and Only God the Lions who were
- 2:12:20purposely starved for the feast remained
- 2:12:22powerless to hurt the prophet Daniel's
- 2:12:24faith in God was so great that it
- 2:12:26finally brought about his freedom and
- 2:12:28his appointment to a high office in the
- 2:12:30government of his country this story was
- 2:12:32written for you to instruct you in the
- 2:12:34art of freeing yourself from any problem
- 2:12:36or prison in the
- 2:12:38world most of us on finding ourselves in
- 2:12:40the Lion's Den would be concerned only
- 2:12:42with the Lions we would not be thinking
- 2:12:44of any other problem in the whole wide
- 2:12:46world but that of lions yet we are told
- 2:12:48that Daniel turned his back upon them
- 2:12:50and looked toward the light that was God
- 2:12:52if we could follow the example of Daniel
- 2:12:54while threatened with any dire disaster
- 2:12:55such as lions poverty or sickness if
- 2:12:58like Daniel we could remove our
- 2:12:59attention to the light that is God our
- 2:13:02solutions would be similarly
- 2:13:03simple for example if you were
- 2:13:06imprisoned no man would need to tell you
- 2:13:08that what you should desire is freedom
- 2:13:10freedom or rather the desire to be free
- 2:13:13would be automatic the same would be
- 2:13:15true if you found yourself sick or in
- 2:13:17debt or in any other predicament Lions
- 2:13:20represent seeming ly unsoluble
- 2:13:22situations of a threatening nature every
- 2:13:24problem automatically produces its
- 2:13:26solution in the form of a desire to be
- 2:13:29free from the problem therefore turn
- 2:13:31your back upon your problem and focus
- 2:13:33your attention upon the desired Solution
- 2:13:36by already feeling yourself to be that
- 2:13:37which you desire continue in this belief
- 2:13:40and you will find that your prison wall
- 2:13:42will disappear as you begin to express
- 2:13:44that which you have become conscious of
- 2:13:46being I have seen people apparently
- 2:13:49hopelessly in debt apply this principle
- 2:13:52and in but a very short time debts that
- 2:13:53were mountainous were removed I have
- 2:13:56also seen those whom doctors had given
- 2:13:57up as incurable apply this principle and
- 2:14:00in an incredibly short time their
- 2:14:01so-called incurable disease vanished and
- 2:14:04left no
- 2:14:05scar look upon your desires as the
- 2:14:07spoken words of God and every word of
- 2:14:10Prophecy of that which you are capable
- 2:14:12of being do not question whether you are
- 2:14:14worthy or unworthy to realize these
- 2:14:16desires accept them as they come to you
- 2:14:20give thanks for them as though they were
- 2:14:22gifts feel happy and grateful for having
- 2:14:24received such wonderful gifts then go
- 2:14:27your way in
- 2:14:28peace such simple acceptance of your
- 2:14:30desires is like the dropping of fertile
- 2:14:33seed into an Ever prepared soil when you
- 2:14:35drop your desire in Consciousness as a
- 2:14:38seed confident that it shall appear in
- 2:14:40its full-blown potential you have done
- 2:14:42all that is expected of you to be
- 2:14:44worried or concerned about the manner of
- 2:14:46their unfoldment is to hold these
- 2:14:48fertile seeds in a mental grasp and
- 2:14:50therefore to prevent them from really
- 2:14:52maturing to full
- 2:14:53Harvest don't be anxious or concerned as
- 2:14:56to results results will follow just as
- 2:14:59surely as day follows night have faith
- 2:15:02in this planting until the evidence is
- 2:15:04Manifest to you that it is so your
- 2:15:06confidence in this procedure will pay
- 2:15:09great rewards you wait but a little
- 2:15:11while in the consciousness of the thing
- 2:15:13desired then suddenly and when you least
- 2:15:16expect it the thing felt becomes your
- 2:15:18expression life is no respector of
- 2:15:20person and destroys nothing it continues
- 2:15:23to keep alive that which man is
- 2:15:25conscious of being things will disappear
- 2:15:27only as man changes his Consciousness
- 2:15:30deny it if you will it still remains a
- 2:15:32fact that Consciousness is the only
- 2:15:34reality and things but mirror that which
- 2:15:36you are conscious of being the Heavenly
- 2:15:38State you seek will be found only in
- 2:15:40Consciousness for the Kingdom of Heaven
- 2:15:42is within you your Consciousness is the
- 2:15:45only living reality the Eternal head of
- 2:15:48creation that which you are ious of
- 2:15:51being is the temporal body that you wear
- 2:15:53to turn your attention from that which
- 2:15:55you are aware of being is to decapitate
- 2:15:57that body but just as a chicken or snake
- 2:16:00continues to jump and throb for a while
- 2:16:02after its head has been removed likewise
- 2:16:04qualities and conditions appear to live
- 2:16:06for a while after your attention has
- 2:16:07been taken from them man not knowing
- 2:16:11this law of Consciousness constantly
- 2:16:13gives thought to his previous habitual
- 2:16:15conditions and through being attentive
- 2:16:17to them places upon these dead bodies
- 2:16:19the Eternal head of creation thereby he
- 2:16:21reanimates and re- resurrects them you
- 2:16:24must leave these dead bodies alone and
- 2:16:26let the dead bury the dead man having
- 2:16:28put his hand to the plow that is after
- 2:16:31assuming the consciousness of the
- 2:16:32quality desired by Looking Back can only
- 2:16:35defeat his Fitness for the Kingdom of
- 2:16:37Heaven as the will of Heaven is ever
- 2:16:39done on Earth you are today in the
- 2:16:42heaven that you have established within

- 2:17:04fishing they went forth and entered into
- 2:17:07a ship and that night they caught
- 2:17:09nothing John
- 2:17:1221:3 and he said unto them cast the net
- 2:17:15on the right side of the ship and ye
- 2:17:17shall find they cast therefore and now
- 2:17:21they were not able to draw it for the
- 2:17:22multitude of fishes John
- 2:17:2621:6 it is recorded that the disciples
- 2:17:29fished all night and caught nothing then
- 2:17:31Jesus appeared upon the scene and told
- 2:17:33them to cast their Nets again but this
- 2:17:36time to cast them on the right side
- 2:17:38Peter obeyed the voice of Jesus and cast
- 2:17:40his Nets once more into the waters where
- 2:17:43but a moment before the water was
- 2:17:45completely empty of fish the Nets almost
- 2:17:47broke with the number of the resulting
- 2:17:49catch
- 2:17:51man fishing all through the night of
- 2:17:53human ignorance attempts to realize his
- 2:17:56desires through effort and struggle only
- 2:17:58to find in the end that his search is
- 2:18:00fruitless when man discovers his
- 2:18:02awareness of being to be Christ Jesus he
- 2:18:05will obey its voice and let it direct
- 2:18:07his fishing he will cast his hook on the
- 2:18:09right side he will apply the law in the
- 2:18:12right Manner and will seek in
- 2:18:14Consciousness for the thing desired
- 2:18:16finding it there he will know that it
- 2:18:18will be multiplied in the world of form
- 2:18:21those who have had the pleasure of
- 2:18:23fishing know what a thrill it is to feel
- 2:18:25the fish upon the hook the bite of the
- 2:18:27fish is followed by the play of the fish
- 2:18:30this play in turn is followed by the
- 2:18:32landing of the
- 2:18:33fish something similar takes place in
- 2:18:36the consciousness of man as he fishes
- 2:18:38for the manifestations of Life fishermen
- 2:18:41know that if they wish to catch big fish
- 2:18:44they must fish in deep Waters if you
- 2:18:46would catch a large measure of life you
- 2:18:48must leave behind you the shallow Waters
- 2:18:50with its many and barriers and launch
- 2:18:52out into the Deep Blue Waters where the
- 2:18:53big ones play to catch the large
- 2:18:55manifestations of life you must enter
- 2:18:57into deeper and Freer States Of
- 2:18:59Consciousness only in these depths do
- 2:19:01the big expressions of life
- 2:19:03live here is a simple formula for
- 2:19:06successful fishing first decide what it
- 2:19:09is you want to express or possess this
- 2:19:11is essential you must definitely know
- 2:19:14what you want of life before you can
- 2:19:16fish for it after your decision is made
- 2:19:18turn from the world of sense remove your
- 2:19:21attention from the problem and place it
- 2:19:23on just being by repeating quietly but
- 2:19:25with feeling I am as your attention is
- 2:19:27removed from the world round about you
- 2:19:29and placed upon the I am so that you are
- 2:19:31lost in the feeling of Simply being you
- 2:19:33will find yourself slipping the anchor
- 2:19:35that tied you to the shallows of your
- 2:19:37problem and effortlessly you will find
- 2:19:39yourself moving out into the deep the
- 2:19:42sensation which accompanies this act is
- 2:19:44one of expansion you will feel yourself

- 2:19:55your limitations however your
- 2:19:57limitations are going to die as you move
- 2:20:00away from them for they live only in
- 2:20:02your
- 2:20:03Consciousness in this deep or expanded
- 2:20:05Consciousness you will feel yourself to
- 2:20:07be a mighty pulsating power as deep and
- 2:20:10as rhythmical as the ocean this expanded
- 2:20:12feeling is the signal that you are now
- 2:20:14in the Deep Blue Waters where the big
- 2:20:16fish swim suppose the fish you decided
- 2:20:18to catch were health and freedom you
- 2:20:20begin to fish in this formless pulsating
- 2:20:23depth of yourself for these qualities or
- 2:20:25states of Consciousness by feeling I am
- 2:20:28healthy I am free you continue claiming
- 2:20:31and feeling yourself to be healthy and

- 2:20:55fish now comes the play of the fish this
- 2:20:58is accomplished by returning to the
- 2:21:00world of the senses as you open your
- 2:21:02eyes on the world round about you the
- 2:21:05conviction and the Consciousness that

- 2:21:22that which you feel and know that you
- 2:21:23are will be
- 2:21:24landed in a moment when you think not
- 2:21:27while you Faithfully walk in this

- 2:21:36the big one now go and fish for the
- 2:21:39manifestations of Life by casting your
- 2:21:41Nets in the right
- 2:21:44side chapter 23 be ears that hear
- 2:21:50let these sayings sink down into your
- 2:21:52ears for the son of man shall be
- 2:21:55delivered into the hands of men Luke
- 2:21:599:44 let these sayings sink down into

- 2:22:04delivered into the hands of men be not
- 2:22:07as those who have eyes that see not and
- 2:22:09ears that hear not let these Revelations
- 2:22:11sink deep into your ears for after the
- 2:22:13sun idea is conceived man with his false
- 2:22:16values reason will attempt to explain
- 2:22:19the why and wherefore of the the son's
- 2:22:20expression and in so doing will Rend him
- 2:22:23to
- 2:22:24pieces after men have agreed that a
- 2:22:26certain thing is humanly impossible and
- 2:22:28therefore cannot be done let someone
- 2:22:30accomplish The Impossible thing the wise
- 2:22:32ones who said it could not be done will
- 2:22:34begin to tell you why and how it
- 2:22:35happened after they are all through
- 2:22:37tearing the seamless robe cause of
- 2:22:40manifestation apart they will be as far
- 2:22:42from the truth as they were when they
- 2:22:44proclaimed it impossible as long as man
- 2:22:46looks for the cause of expression in
- 2:22:48places other than the expressor he looks
- 2:22:51in vain for thousands of years man has
- 2:22:54been told I am the resurrection and the
- 2:22:57life no manifestation cometh unto me
- 2:23:00save I draw it but man will not believe
- 2:23:03it he prefers to believe in causes
- 2:23:06outside of himself the moment that which
- 2:23:08was not seen becomes seen man is ready
- 2:23:11to explain the cause and purpose of its
- 2:23:13appearance thus the son of man idea
- 2:23:16Desiring manifestation is constantly
- 2:23:19being destroyed at the hand
- 2:23:21reasonable explanation or wisdom of man
- 2:23:24now that your awareness is revealed to
- 2:23:26you as cause of all expression do not
- 2:23:29return to the darkness of Egypt with its
- 2:23:31many gods there is but one God The One
- 2:23:35and Only God is your awareness and all
- 2:23:37the inhabitants of the Earth are reputed
- 2:23:40as nothing and he doeth according to his
- 2:23:42will in the army of heaven and among the
- 2:23:44inhabitants of the earth and none can
- 2:23:46stay his hand or say unto himwhat doest
- 2:23:49thou if the whole world should agree
- 2:23:51that a certain thing could not be
- 2:23:53expressed and yet you became aware of
- 2:23:55being that which they had agreed could
- 2:23:56not be expressed you would express it
- 2:23:58your awareness never asks permission to
- 2:24:01express that which you are aware of
- 2:24:02being it does so naturally and without
- 2:24:05effort in spite of the wisdom of man and
- 2:24:08all
- 2:24:09opposition salute no man by the way this
- 2:24:12is not a command to be insolent or
- 2:24:14unfriendly but a reminder not to
- 2:24:16recognize a superior not to see in
- 2:24:19anyone a barrier to to your expression
- 2:24:21none can stay your hand or question your
- 2:24:23ability to express that which you are
- 2:24:25conscious of being do not judge after
- 2:24:27the appearances of a thing for all are
- 2:24:30as nothing in the eyes of God when the
- 2:24:32disciples through their judgment of
- 2:24:34appearances saw the insane child they
- 2:24:36thought it a more difficult problem to
- 2:24:38solve than others they had seen and so
- 2:24:41they failed to achieve a cure in judging
- 2:24:43after appearances they forgot that all
- 2:24:46things were possible to God hypnotized
- 2:24:48as they were by the reality of
- 2:24:50appearances they could not feel the
- 2:24:52naturalness of
- 2:24:54Sanity the only way for you to avoid
- 2:24:56such failures is to constantly bear in
- 2:24:58mind that your awareness is the almighty
- 2:25:01die all wise presence without help this
- 2:25:04unknown presence within you effortlessly
- 2:25:06out pictures that which you are aware of
- 2:25:08being your desire is the solution of
- 2:25:10your problem as the desire is realized
- 2:25:13the problem is
- 2:25:14disolved you cannot force anything
- 2:25:17outwardly by the mightiest effort of the
- 2:25:19will there is only one way you can
- 2:25:21command the things you want and that is
- 2:25:23by assuming the consciousness of the
- 2:25:25things desired there is a vast
- 2:25:27difference between feeling a thing and
- 2:25:29merely knowing it intellectually you
- 2:25:31must accept without reservation the fact
- 2:25:34that by possessing feeling a thing in
- 2:25:36Consciousness you have commanded the
- 2:25:38reality that causes it to come into
- 2:25:40existence in concrete form you must be
- 2:25:42absolutely convinced of an unbroken
- 2:25:44connection between the invisible reality
- 2:25:47and its visible manifestation your inner
- 2:25:49acceptance must be become an intense
- 2:25:51unalterable conviction which transcends
- 2:25:53both reason and intellect renouncing
- 2:25:56entirely any belief in the reality of
- 2:25:58the externalization except as a
- 2:25:59reflection of an inner State of
- 2:26:02Consciousness your desires are the
- 2:26:04invisible realities which respond only
- 2:26:06to the commands of God God commands the
- 2:26:09invisible to appear by claiming himself
- 2:26:11to be the thing
- 2:26:13commanded he made himself equal with God
- 2:26:16and found it not robbery to do the works
- 2:26:18of God now let this saying sink deep in
- 2:26:20your ear be conscious of being that
- 2:26:23which you want too

- 2:29:18long imprisonment shows Dan how unfit he
- 2:29:21is to receive this knowledge in his
- 2:29:22present unprepared anxious mind so with

- 2:43:05claim Must In Time be expressed as a
- 2:43:08condition of his world of his
- 2:43:09environment so he remains faithful to
- 2:43:11his beloved his defined objective by

- 2:43:40of Prayer his disciples or disciplined
- 2:43:42attributes of mind and commanded them to
- 2:43:45watch while he prayed so that no thought
- 2:43:47or belief that would deny the
- 2:43:49realization of his desire might enter
- 2:43:50his Consciousness follow the example of
- 2:43:53Jesus who with his desires clearly
- 2:43:55defined entered the Garden of Gethsemane
- 2:43:58the state of Joy accompanied by his
- 2:44:00disciples his disciplined mind to lose
- 2:44:03himself in a wild Joy of realization the
- 2:44:06fixing of his attention on his objective
- 2:44:08was his command to his disciplined mind
- 2:44:10to watch and remain faithful to that
- 2:44:12fixation contemplating the joy that
- 2:44:15would be his on realizing his desire he
- 2:44:18began the spiritual Act of generation
- 2:44:20the act of pressing out the mystical
- 2:44:22seed his defined desire in this fixation
- 2:44:25he remained claiming in feeling himself
- 2:44:27to be that which he before he entered
- 2:44:29Gethsemane desired to be until his whole
- 2:44:32being Consciousness was bathed in an
- 2:44:35oily sweat Joy resembling blood life in
- 2:44:38short until his whole Consciousness was
- 2:44:40permeated with the living sustained Joy
- 2:44:42of being his defined
- 2:44:44objective as this fixation is
- 2:44:46accomplished so that the Mystic Knows by
- 2:44:48his feeling of joy way that he has
- 2:44:49passed from his former conscious State
- 2:44:51into his present Consciousness the
- 2:44:53Passover or crucifixion is attained this
- 2:44:56crucifixion or fixation of the new
- 2:44:58conscious claim is followed by the
- 2:44:59Sabbath a time of rest there is always
- 2:45:02an interval of time between the
- 2:45:04impression and its expression between
- 2:45:06the conscious claim and its embodiment
- 2:45:09this interval is called the Sabbath The
- 2:45:11Period of rest or non-for the day of
- 2:45:14inent to walk unmoved in the
- 2:45:17consciousness of being or possessing ing
- 2:45:19a certain state is to keep the Sabbath
- 2:45:21the story of the crucifixion beautifully
- 2:45:24expresses this mystical Stillness or
- 2:45:26rest we are told that after Jesus cried
- 2:45:29out it is finished he was placed in a
- 2:45:32tomb there he remained for the entire
- 2:45:35Sabbath when the new state or
- 2:45:36Consciousness is appropriated so you
- 2:45:38feel by this appropriation fixed and
- 2:45:41secure in the knowledge that it is
- 2:45:43finished then you too will cry out it is
- 2:45:46finished and will enter the tomb or
- 2:45:48Sabbath an interval of time in which you
- 2:45:50will walk unmoved in the conviction that
- 2:45:52your new Consciousness must be
- 2:45:54resurrected made
- 2:45:56visible Easter the day of Resurrection
- 2:45:59falls on the first Sunday after the full
- 2:46:01moon in Aries the mystical reason for
- 2:46:04this is simple a defined area will not
- 2:46:07precipitate itself in the form of rain
- 2:46:09until this area reaches the point of
- 2:46:11saturation just so the state in which
- 2:46:13you dwell will not express itself until
- 2:46:15the whole is permeated with the
- 2:46:16Consciousness that it is so it is
- 2:46:18finished
- 2:46:20your defined objective is the imaginary
- 2:46:22State just as the equator is the
- 2:46:24imaginary line across which the sun must
- 2:46:27pass to Mark the beginning of Spring
- 2:46:29this state like the moon has no light or
- 2:46:32life of itself but will reflect the
- 2:46:34light of Consciousness or sun I am the
- 2:46:37light of the world I am the resurrection
- 2:46:39and the life as Easter is determined by
- 2:46:42the full moon in Aries so two is the
- 2:46:45resurrection of your conscious claim
- 2:46:47determined by the full consciousness of
- 2:46:48your claim by actually living as this
- 2:46:51new conception most men fail to
- 2:46:53resurrect their objectives because they
- 2:46:55fail to remain faithful to their newly
- 2:46:57defined State until this fullness is
- 2:46:59attained if man would bear in mind the
- 2:47:01fact that there can be no Easter or day
- 2:47:03of Resurrection until after the full
- 2:47:04moon he would realize that the state
- 2:47:07into which he has consciously passed
- 2:47:08will be expressed or resurrected only
- 2:47:10after he has remained within the state
- 2:47:12of being his defined objective until his
- 2:47:14whole self Thrills with the feeling of
- 2:47:16actually being his conscious claim Inc
- 2:47:18consciously living in this state of
- 2:47:19being it and only in this way will man
- 2:47:22ever resurrect or realize his
- 2:47:26desire chapter 27 a formula for
- 2:47:31victory every place that the soul of
- 2:47:34your foot shall tread upon that have I
- 2:47:36given unto you Joshua
- 2:47:391:3 the majority of people are familiar
- 2:47:42with the story of Joshua capturing the
- 2:47:44city of Jericho what they do not know is
- 2:47:47that this story is the perfect formula
- 2:47:49for victory under any circumstances and
- 2:47:51Against All
- 2:47:53Odds it is recorded that Joshua was
- 2:47:55armed only with the knowledge that every
- 2:47:57place that the soul of his foot should
- 2:47:59tread upon would be given to him that he
- 2:48:01desired to capture or tread upon the
- 2:48:03city of Jericho but found the walls
- 2:48:05separating him from the city impassible
- 2:48:07it seemed physically impossible for
- 2:48:09Joshua to get Beyond these massive walls
- 2:48:11and stand upon the city of Jericho yet
- 2:48:14he was driven by the knowledge of the
- 2:48:15promise that regardless of the barriers
- 2:48:18and OB separating him from his desires
- 2:48:21if he could but stand upon the city it
- 2:48:23would be given to him the Book of Joshua
- 2:48:26further records that instead of fighting
- 2:48:28this giant problem of the wall Joshua
- 2:48:30employed the services of the Harlot
- 2:48:32Rahab and sent her as a spy into the
- 2:48:35city as Rahab entered her house which
- 2:48:38stood in the midst of the city Joshua
- 2:48:40who was securely barred by the
- 2:48:42impassible walls of Jericho blew on his
- 2:48:45trumpet seven times at the seventh blast
- 2:48:48the walls crumbled and Joshua entered
- 2:48:50the city
- 2:48:51victoriously to the uninitiated this
- 2:48:54story is
- 2:48:55senseless to the one who sees it as a
- 2:48:58psychological drama rather than as a
- 2:49:00historical record it is most
- 2:49:03revealing if we would follow the example
- 2:49:05of Joshua our Victory would be similarly
- 2:49:08simple Joshua symbolizes to you the
- 2:49:11reader your present state the city of
- 2:49:13Jericho symbolizes your desire or
- 2:49:16defined objective the walls of Jer Jero
- 2:49:19symbolize the obstacles between you and
- 2:49:21the realization of your objectives the
- 2:49:23foot symbolizes the understanding
- 2:49:26placing the so of the foot upon a
- 2:49:28definite Place indicates fixing a
- 2:49:30definite psychological State Rahab the
- 2:49:32Spy is your ability to travel secretly
- 2:49:35or psychologically to any place in space
- 2:49:38Consciousness knows no Frontier no one
- 2:49:41can stop you from dwelling
- 2:49:42psychologically at any point or in any
- 2:49:45state in time or
- 2:49:46space regardless of the physical
- 2:49:49barriers separating you from your
- 2:49:50objective you can without effort or help
- 2:49:53of anyone annihilate time space and
- 2:49:56barriers thus you can dwell
- 2:49:58psychologically in the desired state so
- 2:50:01although you may not be able to tread
- 2:50:03physically upon a state or city you can
- 2:50:05always tread psychologically upon any
- 2:50:08desired state by treading
- 2:50:09psychologically I mean that you can now
- 2:50:11this moment close your eyes and after
- 2:50:13visualizing or imagining a place or
- 2:50:15state other than your present one
- 2:50:17actually feel that you are now in such a
- 2:50:19place or state you can feel this
- 2:50:21condition to be so real that upon
- 2:50:23opening your eyes you are amazed to find
- 2:50:25that you are not physically there a
- 2:50:28harlot as you know gives to all men that
- 2:50:31which they ask of her Rahab the Harlot
- 2:50:34symbolizes your infinite capacity to
- 2:50:36psychologically assume any desirable
- 2:50:38State without questioning whether or not
- 2:50:40you are physically or morally fit to do
- 2:50:42so you can today capture the modern city
- 2:50:44of Jericho or your defined objective if
- 2:50:46you will psychologically reenact the
- 2:50:48story of Joshua but to capture the city
- 2:50:51and realize your desires you must
- 2:50:52carefully follow the formula of Victory
- 2:50:54as laid down in this book of
- 2:50:56Joshua this is the application of this
- 2:50:59Victorious formula as a modern Mystic
- 2:51:01reveals it
- 2:51:02today first Define your objective not
- 2:51:05the manner of obtaining it but your
- 2:51:08objective pure and simple know exactly
- 2:51:10what it is you desire so that you have a
- 2:51:12clear mental picture of it secondly take
- 2:51:15your attention away from the obstacles
- 2:51:17which separate you from your objective
- 2:51:19and place your thought on the objective
- 2:51:21itself thirdly close your eyes and feel
- 2:51:24that you are already in the city or
- 2:51:26state that you would capture remain
- 2:51:28within this psychological State until
- 2:51:30you get a conscious reaction of complete
- 2:51:32satisfaction in this Victory then by
- 2:51:35simply opening your eyes return to your
- 2:51:38former conscious State this secret
- 2:51:40journey into the desired state with its
- 2:51:43subsequent psychological reaction of
- 2:51:45complete satisfaction is all that is
- 2:51:47necessary to bring about total Victory
- 2:51:50this Victorious psychical state will
- 2:51:52embody itself despite all opposition it
- 2:51:55has the plan and power of
- 2:51:56self-expression from this point forward
- 2:51:58follow the example of Joshua who after
- 2:52:01psychologically dwelling in the desired
- 2:52:03State until he received a complete
- 2:52:05conscious reaction of Victory did
- 2:52:07nothing more to bring about this Victory
- 2:52:09than to blow seven times on his
- 2:52:11trumpet the seventh blast symbolizes the
- 2:52:14seventh day a time of Stillness or rest
- 2:52:17the interval between the objective and
- 2:52:19objective States a period of pregnancy
- 2:52:21or joyful expectancy this Stillness is
- 2:52:24not the Stillness of the body but rather
- 2:52:26the Stillness of the Mind a perfect
- 2:52:28paity which is not indolence but a
- 2:52:30living Stillness born of trust in this
- 2:52:32immutable law of
- 2:52:34Consciousness those not familiar with
- 2:52:36this law or formula for victory in
- 2:52:39attempting to still their minds succeed
- 2:52:41only in acquiring a quiet tension which
- 2:52:43is nothing more than compressed anxiety
- 2:52:45but you who know this law will find that
- 2:52:48after capturing the psychological state
- 2:52:50which would be yours if you were already
- 2:52:51victoriously and actually entrenched in
- 2:52:53that City will move forward towards the
- 2:52:55physical realization of your desires you
- 2:52:57will do this without doubt or fear in a
- 2:53:00state of mind fixed in the knowledge of
- 2:53:02a pre-arranged
- 2:53:03victory you will not be afraid of the
- 2:53:06enemy because the outcome has been
- 2:53:07determined by the psychological state
- 2:53:09that preceded the physical offensive and
- 2:53:12all the forces of Heaven and Earth
- 2:53:13cannot stop the Victorious fulfillment
- 2:53:15of that state stand still in the
- 2:53:18psychological State defined as your
- 2:53:20objective until you feel the thrill of
- 2:53:22victory then with confidence born of the
- 2:53:25knowledge of this law watch the physical
- 2:53:27realization of your
- 2:53:29objective set yourself stand still and
- 2:53:32watch the salvation of the law within
- 2:53:34you
