Impersonalization Illustrated (4/5)

Just think of the Master saying to Lazarus: “Come forth.” In other words, death isn’t a power. “Young maid, I say unto thee: Arise.” Death isn’t a power. He didn’t turn to God and say, “I’ll bring the power of God down to heal you or to raise you.” In fact, at the tomb of Lazarus he even said: “I don’t even have to pray, but for the sake of those around here who still believe in prayer.” But all he said was: “Lazarus, come forth. Blind man, open your eyes.” Not a word about, “I’ll have God open your eyes.” Continue reading Impersonalization Illustrated (4/5)

Impersonalization Illustrated (3/5)

Now be very sure that you treat this as the pearl of great price. Be sure that if anyone comes to you for this that virtually they’re selling all that they have in order to buy it. In other words that really and truly they’re coming to you in humility; they’re coming to you in earnestness; they’re coming to you really and truly seeking – not curiosity seeking.

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)

The Nature of God (4/5)

1959 San Diego Special Class Tape 269 Side 1 The Nature of God By Joel Goldsmith Part 4 of 5 I wrote a book review on a book which was written by a minister in which he said he made experiments with plants and found that prayer would help to grow them and that prayer could be used to destroy them.

You must know that prayer is an activity that … Continue reading The Nature of God (4/5)

1959 San Diego Special Class Tape 269 Side 1 The Nature of God By Joel Goldsmith Part 1 of 5 Good morning! Yesterday I brought to your attention the fact that this class is really a God-miracle, and what you experienced was another proof of that miracle because for the first time in the entire class experience of over 12 years, our work went through two solid hours without even a stop to breathe or walk or rest, and that has never before happened. Also, it will interest you to know that many of our classes consist of only one-hour … Continue reading The Nature of God (1/5)
