Lifting up the I (1/7)

Wim Haverkamp

Infinite Way Letter 1964 – November Aka – Realization of Oneness By Joel Goldsmith Part 1 of 7 Lifting Up the I There is no one mode, means, method, or system which can correctly be called metaphysical or spiritual healing. In fact, there are as many different approaches to spiritual healing as there are in materia medica with its allopathy, homeopathy, osteopathy, chiropractic, and naprapathy, all different forms of materia medica. In the world of metaphysical and spiritual healing, there are the evangelists who, by the grace of God, have received some special state of consciousness through which they heal … Continue reading Lifting up the I (1/7)

Only To Listen/ Spiritual Discernment

Wim Haverkamp

IW Morsel – Only To Listen We do not go to God to tell him what claim or what disease is to be removed, or what sin or what limitation or lack, nor do we go to God to explain our need for money or employment. We go to God for one purpose—to hear the still, small voice. From-Rising In Consciousness By Joel Goldsmith P.21 From – Living by Grace By Joel Goldsmith P. 98-99 Spiritual Discernment Unless you have spiritual discernment, words are meaningless. You must therefore develop your spiritual discernment so that you will instinctively and automatically know … Continue reading Only To Listen/ Spiritual Discernment

Aka – Realization of Oneness By Joel Goldsmith Part 5 of 5 “It Shall Not Come Nigh Thee” Laying Up Spiritual Treasures As we engage in this practice, we will save ourselves from many of the woes and negative experiences of this world, but what is even more important is that once we have proved these principles in our own experience, we will see how quickly our conscious awareness of them begins to set others free.

Wim Haverkamp

Aka – Realization of Oneness By Joel Goldsmith Part 3 of 5 Weather As An Activity of Mind Miracles will appear in your life when you practice these principles of spiritual living and when you can rise above living in this truth merely for your own sake or your family’s, and begin to apply them to whatever touches your immediate world or the world at large—from government even to the weather.

It Shall Not Come Nigh Thee (2/5)

Wim Haverkamp

By Joel Goldsmith Part 2 of 5 “” Your Experience Is Your Consciousness Objectified Those are comforting words to read, but the all-important question before each and every person is: How can I arrive at that state of consciousness? How can I become the one who dwells “in the secret place of the most High”? I can assure you that this is not brought about by sitting idly by and accepting what the world doles out to you. It has to be done consciously. Whether you believe it or not, your life is either a conscious activity of your consciousness … Continue reading It Shall Not Come Nigh Thee (2/5)

Building a Consciousness of Grace

Wim Haverkamp

From – Beyond Words & Thoughts By Joel Goldsmith Chapter 2 / Building a Consciousness of Grace P.17 A Knowledge of Truth Develops Consciousness The activity of the human mind is not power in the sense of spiritual power, and not all the knowledge that can be embraced in the human mind—even all the knowledge of truth—is spiritual power. Knowledge of truth acts to remove from us our ignorance of the nature of Spirit and Its activities and operations. An example of this is that when we first come to the study of truth we believe that if we can … Continue reading Building a Consciousness of Grace
