Universal I Am is individualized but not in matter -VS

“The universal I Am is individualized as the I that I am, but It is never localized or finitized. Think of the Divine Influence emanating from this Consciousness of Truth.

Jesus knew this; he was called God Incarnate or the Son of God because he knew the truth. He said “If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” The Truth frees us from personalization which is desolation.

The Truth unites us with all God’s universe including every spiritual being and idea. This is our starting point, and when we do treatment work, we must rise to this level of awareness.”

Don’t contact God to adjust the dream -VS

“Do not contact God to adjust, change, or heal the dream. The understanding or awareness of God breaks the dream.”

“An awareness of God breaks the mesmeric hold.

What happens if in your sleep, you dream that you have a disease and you are going to die, but then someone wakes you up? What happens to the dream and the dreamer? They disappear! Gone. What remains is the child of God who has never really left Heaven for earth, and the harmony of that divine estate out-pictures.

It is important to know that you work against a practitioner when you think of him or her as a doctor who can heal a disease and yourself as a sick or sinning mortal. A practitioner is awake and knows his or her true Identity as well as your true Identity as incorporeal being.”

Treatment on Substance -VS

“Now we come to the word “activity.” There is just one Activity, and It is spiritual and invisible. All outer manifestations of activity stem from the Activity of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. This is the Activity that holds the earth in its orbit, and holds all of the planets in divine order. This is the only Activity there is and no human thinking could ever disturb It.

Can we disturb or change the activity and rhythm of the tides? There is no power that we can use because God is all activity, Omni-active.

In truth, there is no over-action, inaction, or diseased action. This I that I am is Omni-active. If we hold to this truth, we are able to rest from taking anxious thought and we rest in action. “There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.”

Universal hypnotism

“Let us look at the example of the parenthesis in eternity, and see how Joel has dealt with the limitations that take place between the cradle and the grave such as “good” humanhood, “bad” humanhood, and all those conditions that are warring with themselves.

Joel tells us that we must recognize this activity as universal hypnotism no matter what the problem may be. The problem may be disease, lack, poverty, greed, lust, hatred, war, depression, or rivalry – all these forms are universal hypnotism in operation and are without presence or power.”

When our mind settles down … VS

“Since we are the living Soul, we stand behind the mind, and if there is a time when we try but cannot meditate, we can gently address our mental state from this altitude of “I and my Father are one.” We can say, “My Peace give I unto you, my mind. Receive God’s grace. My Peace give I unto you, my mind.”

We do this just as we would reassure a little puppy dog, “Peace, peace, lie down, rest, nothing will harm you be at peace.” Then the mind settles down: “Now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation,” now are we children of God and the Kingdom of God is within us. We need not fight; we need not struggle, but just be at peace.

Finally, we see that like the little puppy, the mind finally gets the message, becomes quiet and then there is that stillness. When this occurs, we know we have exercised our God-given dominion over our thoughts and our mentality, and our soul is at rest.”

Don’t condition with labels VS

“When we condition the mind with beliefs labeled good and evil and hold on to this conditioning, we put up barriers to the spontaneous regenerative activity of Mind.

We speak of conditioned, personalized mind as carnal mind, the fleshly mind or the mortal mind. This does not mean that there is a mortal mind — we are speaking of just the conditioning of good and evil that we hold as beliefs and opinions.

So nothing really negative is locked into the mind, because the universal Mind is impersonal, universal, and functions by Law. It is an avenue of awareness for God, Consciousness.

In Consciousness is the grand design; everything is in Consciousness — the design of our universe including spiritual ideas and mankind.”

Don’t personalize Mind. VS

“God is begetting Itself moment-to-moment and spontaneously through the one infinite Mind as creation. This Mind is universal. The moment we personalize Mind, we have made it into a mortal mind in our own experience and limited it. When we function as a state of receptivity and conscious awareness of the indwelling presence of God, the mind becomes an avenue of awareness through which spiritual ideas of love and truth unfold.”

Don’t be absorbed in what you’re doing VS

“What is the mind? It is an avenue of awareness through which spiritual ideas impart themselves. In my conscious oneness with God, I am one with all spiritual Being and Idea. If I am at attention, I am never absorbed in what I am doing. When we are absorbed in what we are doing, we have become that thing that absorbs us.”

Reach Presence, meditation done

“When we reach a place in our meditation that we feel the Presence, the meditation is complete. There is no time in Consciousness; one second of divine Consciousness is far more productive than hours of sitting in meditation where there is no real consciousness of the Presence. Sometimes we are held for a longer period of time, however, meditation is effortless and timeless when the Spirit takes over. The moment we are aware of the Presence and have that released sense of Life, we know our meditation is complete.”
