The Miracle Of No Mind

Any word of God that is in your mind is a word that you have created; it is a graven image. Any thought of God that is in your mind, you have created, and it is a graven image. If you want to be absent from the body, even the body of the mind, you must be absent from the body of thought, and then whatever God is, however God functions, something takes place in a way that seems to be a miracle to human sense. But it is not a miracle that has been performed: it is the presence of God realized. Continue reading The Miracle Of No Mind

Contemplative Meditation 4/4

Let us learn to rely more and more on that silence within our own being, and then we’ll have to call for less help. But by now we have a nice group of workers. Many of them have already done some very fine healing work, so that you should be able to find help among yourselves, for yourselves, for each other, and for your work. And it doesn’t mean that I’m getting ready to retire. It means that I’m getting ready for bigger activities. Bigger activities. Continue reading Contemplative Meditation 4/4

Contemplative Meditation 3/4

The first step in a meditation should be this contemplative step. Not trying to blank the mind, because it’s impossible. Nor trying to shut off thought. It isn’t possible. But being very quiet, very still, and contemplating some facet of truth. Be still. That’s the first step. Be still and know. That’s the second step. Be still and contemplate that I am God.

Treatment 3/4

Inwardly however, the very moment we turn to God and maintain that turning, day-by-day, something began to happen within us, and just as planting the seed in the garden, there’s no use looking at the garden tomorrow or next week and wondering why we haven’t got peaches. It all comes in its due time. It goes through a lot of processes between the breaking up of the seed in the ground and the appearance of the fruit on the tree. Continue reading Treatment 3/4

Treatment 2/4

Now remember, there’s only one reason you’re not under the law. There is only one reason you’re under divine grace, and that is because of your relationship with God. God is the Father/Mother principle of existence and we are the offspring. We are the divine children of an infinite and an eternal and an immortal Principle, and because of that we are in the world, but not of it. We are under divine grace. Continue reading Treatment 2/4

Treatment 1/4

Removing yourself from the law is a specific act of consciousness which you do daily—you can’t do it once and be free forever. You have to pray without ceasing, and there’s no fooling about that “without ceasing” business, because the moment you stop praying you bring yourself back under the mesmerism of the world, and you come right back under the law again. That is what the Master meant when he said, “Go and sin no more.” Continue reading Treatment 1/4
