The Two Worlds

You will find that each time truth is presented in another generation, that always there must be this clearing out – this making way for the new. Many of you have heard and accepted that there is one world. Now listen to the Infinite Way: There are two worlds – “My Kingdom is not of this world…. My peace I give unto you, but not as this world gives.

The whole goal of the spiritual path is to learn the name and nature of God and to learn your own identity. No one who believes that there is a power somewhere that can operate on him for good and a power that can operate for evil has come even close to touching the hem of the Robe, for there are no such powers.

Do we have eyes and do not see? Do we have ears and do not hear? We cannot see spiritual identity with physical eyes or hear the still small voice and its impartations with physical ears. Every individual has a Soul faculty, which has no relationship to the physical senses of sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell, nor even to the intuitive sense which is the seventh sense. It is this spiritual faculty, which becomes our power of discernment, the power to discern the nature of the two worlds in which we live.
