Unconditioned Mind – Life (1/5)

But metaphysicians do know this. The metaphysicians of all schools, of all approaches know, and I think the basis of all of them is that there is only one mind, but none of them practice it because when it comes down to actual practice, there is a divine mind, and there is a mortal mind, and a human mind. And while the claim, or the original teaching was that there is one mind, yet always the practitioner looks at your mind to see what’s wrong with you. But actually, it is true that there is only one mind, and that mind is the mind of individual being. It is your mind and my mind. There is only one mind in this room.

Specific Principles (4/5)

Never forget, God is your true identity, and God is in the midst of you.  You need no longer seek for God or for truth.  You can read and enjoy any passage of truth that may be presented to you.  It may be in this Bible, it may be in the Koran, it may be in the Vedanta, it may be in the Hindu writings, the Chinese writings, the Japanese writings.  It will really make no difference to you, for in all of them you will find certain passages of truth, and you will love them and they will inspire you and they will be renewed life to you.  So it is that you no longer have to read for your life, for your health, for your supply.  Read only for inspiration because all truth came out of illumined consciousness.

Specific Principles (3/5)

  Now Jesus Christ is a Hebrew Rabbi, preaching in the Hebrew Synagogue, but somewhere along the line, he too has revelation.  I am the bread.  I am life eternal. I’m not seeking a God, I’m not praying to a God.  I am the way, I am the truth.  I am in the midst of me is God, closer to me than breathing, nearer than hands and feet.  Why am I searching this world for God?  Why am I looking for truth?  Why am I seeking a way?   I am is the way.   I am is the truth.  I am is life eternal.  I am is the spirit in the midst of me, the teacher, the savior, the Christ, the comforter.

The Essence Of The Infinite

Now in our work we handle every claim: disease, sin, false appearance—that is brought to us not as a person but as the presentation of the carnal mind in one form or another. And then recognize that since the carnal mind is not ordained of God, it is not power. It has no power, is not a law, has no law and therefore must fall by virtue of its own nothingness. By impersonalizing evil in that way we have found that most of the claims yield quickly and thoroughly because we have not touched a person. We have not tried to change a person or psychoanalyze a person. We have known the truth which is that all evil is a belief in two powers. Continue reading The Essence Of The Infinite

The Thunder Of Silence (1/5)

Here again, you see, this is not a going back to duality. This is not going back to a God and a man, but this is revealing that I, Joel, am an instrument for I, God, but I, God and I, Joel, are one. I, God, being the infinite divine universal principle and Joel Its instrumentality, vehicle, body, mode of expression, form, instrument or outlet—and yet one.

The “I” Within (4/4)

We always begin with what we have.  Never acknowledge that you don’t know enough truth; never acknowledge that you haven’t enough of truth or anything else. One statement of truth is enough to complete your entire life’s demonstration. Why?  If you make use of the one truth that you have, it will multiply itself.  This is the secret of supply in any direction, whether it is the supply of truth, or the supply of money, or the supply of homes, or transportation.  You start with what you have, and you make use of what you have.

Contemplative Meditation (6/6)

Infinite Way Letter August 1956 By Joel Goldsmith Part 6 of 6 CONTEMPLATIVE MEDITATION What Is Religion?  –  continued         God is the source of all good. In our spiritual Selfhood, we are the children of God, heirs to all the heavenly riches, and it is God’s pleasure to give us the kingdom. To God we can give nothing, but we can accept the grace that flows so abundantly, and we can open out a way for it to flow to others. We must accept this grace, not only for ourselves, but for all.         It is sometimes believed that the health of the … Continue reading Contemplative Meditation (6/6)

Contemplative Meditation (5/6)

Infinite Way Letter August 1956 By Joel Goldsmith Part 5 of 6 CONTEMPLATIVE MEDITATION What Is Religion?         The following is the text of my second talk given to devotees of Anandashram, on December 9th, 1955:         We have learned that religion has its beginning in India and spread out from India to the East and to the West. Now we ask: What is religion? What is the religion that was given to us in the beginning, when the hearts and Souls of men opened themselves to God for light?         The study of the many scriptures that comprise our spiritual literature reveals that religion is a release—a … Continue reading Contemplative Meditation (5/6)

Contemplative Meditation (4/6)

Infinite Way Letter August 1956 By Joel Goldsmith Part 4 of 6 CONTEMPLATIVE MEDITATION Be Taught of God Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. I Corinthians 2:12, 13 Between the spiritual teacher and student there is a reciprocal spark of receptivity and responsiveness, because always the teacher has something to share … Continue reading Contemplative Meditation (4/6)
