Exploring "The Game of Life & How to Play It" by Florence Scovel Shinn

I will be reading Florence shovel shins the game of life and how to play it it was originally published in 1925 Florence shovel Shin was born in New Jersey in 1940 she was an American artist and book illustrator and also a mystical spiritual teacher like Neville God art her time of teaching was a few decades before Neville's there's no doubt in my mind the Neville must have come across some of her work in some of The metaphysical books he read early on in his life although I came across this author some time ago I'd like

to thank my viewers like Rene for bringing up again to me because it is really such a wonderful book and very timely and though I plan to read excerpts of this book I probably ended up reading 98 99 % of it and without further ado Florence shovel shins the game of life and how to play chapters 1 through 10 excerpts from the game of life and how to play it by Florence Scovel Shinn chapter 1 the game most people consider life a battle but it is not a battle it is a game it is a

game however which cannot be played successfully without the knowledge of spiritual law and the old and the New Testaments give the rules of the game with wonderful clearness if he gives hate he will receive hate if he gives love he will receive love if he gives criticism he will receive criticism if he lies he will be lied to if he cheats He will be cheated we are taught also that the imagining faculty plays a leading part in the game of life this means that what man images sooner or later externalizes in his affairs I know

of a man who feared a certain disease it was a very rare disease and difficult to get but he pictured it continually and read about it until it manifested in his body and he died the victim of distorted imagination so we see to play Successfully the game of life we must train the imaging faculty a person with an imaging faculty trained to image only good brings into his life every righteous desire of his heart health wealth love friends perfect self-expression his highest ideals the imagination has been call the scissors of the mine and it is

ever cutting cutting day by day the pictures man sees there and sooner or later he meets his own creations in his outer World to train the imagination successfully man must understand the workings of his mind the Greeks said know thyself there are three departments of the mind the subconscious conscious and super conscious the subconscious is simply power without Direction it is like steam or electricity and it does what it is directed to do it has no power of induction whatever man feels deeply or images clearly is impressed upon the Subconscious mind and carried out in

my new test detail for example for example a woman I know when a child always may believe she was a widow she dressed up in black clothes and wore long black veil and people thought she was very clever and amusing she grew up and married a man with whom she was deeply in love in a short time he died and she wore black in a sweeping valve for many years the picture of herself as a widow was impressed upon the subconscious mind And in due time worked itself out regardless of the havoc created the conscious

mind has been called mortal or carnal mind it is a human mind and sees life as it appears to be it sees death disaster sickness poverty and limitation of every kind and impresses the subconscious the super conscious mind is the god mind within each man and is the realm of perfect ideas in it is the perfect pattern spoken of by Plato the Divine Design for there is a divine Design for each person there is a place that you are to fill and no one else can fill something you are to do which no one else

can do there is a perfect picture of this in the super conscious mind it usually flashes across the conscious as an unattainable ideal something too good to be true in reality it is man's true destiny or destination flash to him from the infinite intelligence which is within Himself many people however are an ignorant of their true destinies and are striving for things and situations which do not belong to them and would only bring failure and dissatisfaction if attained for example a woman came to me and asked me to speak the word that she would marry

a certain man with whom she was very much in love she called him a B I replied that this would be a violation of spiritual law but that I would speak the word for the right man the divine Selection the man who belonged to her by divine right I added if a B is the right man you can't lose him and if he isn't you will receive his equivalent she saw a B frequently but no headway was made in their friendship one evening she called and said do you know for the last week a B

hasn't seemed so wonderful to me I replied maybe he is not the divine selection another man may be the right one soon after that she met another man Who fell in love with her at once and who said she was his ideal in fact he said all the things that she had always wished a B would say to her she remarked it was quite uncanny she soon returned his love and lost all interest in a B this shows the law of substitution a right idea was substituted for a wrong one therefore there was no loss

or sacrifice involved many people have brought disaster into their lives through idle words for example a woman Once asked me why her life was now one of poverty of limitation formerly she had a home was surrounded by beautiful things and had often tired of the management of her home and had said repeatedly I'm sick and tired of things I wish I lived in a Trump and she added today I am living in that trunk she had spoken herself into a trunk the subconscious mind has no sense of humor and people often joke themselves into unhappy

experiences for example a woman Who had a great deal of money joked continually about getting ready for the poorhouse in a few years she was almost destitute having impressed the subconscious mind with a picture of lack and limitation fortunately the law works both ways in a situation of lack may be changed to one of Plenty for example a woman came to me one hot summer's day for treatment for Prosperity she was worn out dejected and discouraged She said she possessed just eight dollars in the world I said good will bless the eight dollars and multiply

them as Jesus Christ multiplied the loaves and fishes for he taught that every man has the power to bless and to multiply to heal and to prosper she said what shall I do next I replied follow intuition I replied follow intuition have you a hunch to do anything or to go anywhere intuition means intuition or to be taught from Within it is man's on airing guide and I will deal more fully with its law in a following chapter the woman replied I don't know I seem to have a hunch to go home I've just enough

money for carfare her home was in a distant City and was one of lack and limitation and the reasoning mind or intellect would have said stay in New York and get work and make some money I replied then go home never violate a hunch I spoke the following words for Her infinite spirit open the way for great abundance for she's an irresistible magnet for all that belongs to her by divine right I told her to repeat it continually also she left for home immediately in calling on a woman one day she linked up with an

old friend of her family through this friend she received thousands of dollars in a most miraculous way she has said to me often tell people about the woman who came to you with eight dollars and a hunch there Was always plenty on man's pathway but it can only be brought into manifestation through desire faith or the spoken word Jesus Christ brought doubt clearly the man must make the first move ask and it shall be given you seek and you shall find knock and it shall be opened unto you in the scriptures we read concerning the

works of my hands command ye me infinite intelligence God is ever ready to carry out man's smallest or Greatest demands every desire uh turd or expressed is a demand we're often startled by having a wish suddenly fulfilled for example one Easter having seen many beautiful rose trees in the florists windows I wished I were to receive one and for an instant sought mentally being carried in the door Easter came and with it a beautiful rosetree I thanked my friend that following day and told her it was just what I had wanted she replied I didn't

Send you a rose tree I sent you lilies the man had mixed the order and sent to me a rose tree simply because I had started the law in action and I had to have a rose tree nothing stands between man and his highest ideals and every desire of his heart but doubt and fear what man can wish without worrying every desire will be instantly fulfilled I will explain more fully in a following chapter the scientific reason for this and fear must be erased from the Consciousness it is man's only enemy fear of lack fear

of failure fear of sickness fear of loss and a feeling of insecurity on some plane Jesus Christ said why are ye fearful o ye of little faith so we can see we must substitute faith for fear for fear is only inverted faith it is faith in evil instead of good the object of the game of life is to see clearly once good and to obliterate all mental pictures of evil this must be done by impressing the Subconscious mind with a realization of good a very brilliant man who has attained great success told me he had

suddenly erased all fear from his consciousness our reading a sign which hung in a room he saw printed in large letters this statement why worry it will probably never happen these words were stamped indelibly upon his subconscious mind and he has now a firm conviction that only good can come into his life therefore only good can manifest In the following chapter I will deal with the different methods of impressing the subconscious mind it is man's faithful servant but one must be careful to give it the right orders man has ever a silent listener at his

side his subconscious mind every thought every word is impressed upon it and carried out an amazing detail it is like a singer making a record on the sensitive disk of the Phonographic plate every note in tone of the singer's voice is Registered if he coughs or hesitates it is registered also so let us break all the old bad records in the subconscious mind the records of our lives which we do not wish to keep and make new and beautiful ones speak these words aloud with power and conviction I now smash and demolish by my spoken

word every untrue record in my subconscious mind they shall return to the dust heap of their native nothingness for they came from my own vain imaginings I now make My perfect records through the Christ within the records of health wealth love and perfect self-expression this is the square of life the game completed in the following chapters I will show you how man can change his conditions by changing his words any man who does not know the power of the word is behind the times death and life are in the power of the tongue this concludes

chapter 1 chapter 2 the law of prosperity one of the greatest Messages given to the race to the scripture is that God is man's supply and that man can release through his spoken word all that belongs to him by divine right he must however have perfect faith in his spoken word a woman came to me in great distress and said she was just to be sued on the fifteenth of the month for three thousand dollars she knew no way of getting the money and was in despair I told her God was her supply And that

there is a supply for every demand so I spoke the word I gave thanks that the woman would receive $3,000 at the right time in the right way I told her she must have perfect faith and act her perfect faith the 15th came but no money had materialized she called me on the phone and asked what she should do I replied it is Saturday so they won't sue you today your part is to act rich thereby showing perfect faith that you Will receive it by Monday she asked me to lunch with her to keep up

her courage when I joined her at a restaurant I said this is no time to economize order an expensive luncheon act as if you have already received the $3,000 the next morning she called me on the phone and asked me to stay with her during the day I said no you were divinely protected and God is never too late in the evening she phoned again greatly excited and said my dear America's happened I was Sitting in my room this morning when the doorbell rang I saw to the maid don't let anyone in they made however

looked out the window and said it's your cousin with the long white beard so I said call him back I would like to see him he was just turning the corner when he heard the maids voice and he came back he talked for about an hour and just as he was leaving he said oh by the way how are your finances I told him I needed the Money and he said why my dear I will give you three thousand dollars the first of the month I didn't like to tell him I was going to be

sued what shall I do I won't receive it - the first of the month and I must have it tomorrow I said I'll keep on treating I said spirit is never too late I give thanks she has received the money on the invisible plane and that it manifests on time the next morning her cousin called Her up and said come to my office this morning and I will give you the money that afternoon she had three thousand dollars to her credit in the bank and wrote checks as rapidly as her excitement could permit if one

asks for success and prepares for failure he will get the situation he has prepared for for example a man came to me asking to speak the word that a certain debt would be wiped out I found he spent his time planning what he would say to the man When he did not pay his bill thereby neutralizing my words he should have seen himself paying the debt we have a wonderful illustration of this in the Bible man must prepare for the thing he has asked for when there isn't the slightest sign of an insight for example

a woman found it necessary to look for an apartment during the year when there was a great shortage of apartments in New York it was considered almost an impossibility and her friends were sorry For her and said isn't it too late he off to store your furniture and live in a hotel she replied Judy didn't feel sorry for me I'm a Superman and I'll get an apartment she spoke the words infinite spirit open the way for the right apartment she knew there was a supply for every demand and that she was unconditioned working on the

spiritual plane and that one with God is a majority She had contemplated buying new blankets when the tempter the adverse thought or reasoning mine too suggested don't buy the blankets perhaps after all you won't get an apartment and he will have no use for them she promptly replied to herself I'll dig my ditches by buying the blankets so she prepared for the apartment acted as though she already had it she found one in a miraculous way and it was given to her although there was over 200 other applicants the Blankets showed active faith we have

a wonderful illustration of this in the Bible relating to the three kings who are in the desert without water for their men and horses they consulted the Prophet Elisha who gave them this astonishing message thus saith the Lord ye shall not see wind neither shall ye see rain yet make this valley full of ditches man must prepare for the thing he asked for when there isn't the slightest sign of it in sight it is Needless to say that the ditch is dug by the three kings in the desert were filled to overflowing getting into the

spiritual swing of things is no easy matter for the average person the adverse thoughts of doubt and fear surge from the subconscious they are the army of the aliens which must be put to flight this explains why it is so often darkest before the dawn a big demonstration is usually preceded by tormenting thoughts having made a Statement of high spiritual truth one challenges the old beliefs in the subconscious and error is exposed to be put out this is the time when one must make his affirmations of truth repeatedly and rejoice and give thanks that he

has already received before ye call I shall answer this means that every good and perfect gift is already man's awaiting his recognition man can only receive what he sees himself receiving the Children of Israel were told that they could have all the land they could see this is true of every man he has only the land within his own mental vision every great work every big accomplishment has been brought into manifestation through holding to the vision and often just before the big achievement comes apparent failure and discouragement the children of Israel when they reached the

promised land were afraid to go in before they said it Was filled with Giants who made them feel like grasshoppers and there we saw the Giants and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers this is almost every man's experience however the one who knows spiritual law is undisturbed by appearance and rejoices while he is yet in captivity that is he holds to his vision and give thanks that the end is accomplished he has received Jesus Christ give a wonderful example of this he said to his disciples say Nighy there Are yet four months and

then cometh the harvest behold I say unto you lift up your eyes and look on the fields for they are ripe are ready to harvest his clear vision pierced the world of matter and he saw clearly the fourth dimensional world things as they really are perfect incomplete in divine mind so man must ever hold the vision of his journey's end and demand the manifestation of that which he has already received it may be his perfect Health love supply self-expression home or friends they are all finished and perfect ideas registered in divine mine man's own super

conscious mind and must come through him not to him for example a man came to me asking for treatments for success it was imperative that he raised within a certain time fifty thousand dollars for his business the time limit was almost up when he came to me and to spare no one wanted to invest In his enterprise and the bank had fled refused alone I reply I suppose you lost your temper while at the bank therefore your power you can control any situation if you first control yourself go back to the bank I added and

I will treat my treatment to us you are identified in love with the spirit of everyone connected with the bank let the divine idea come out of this situation he replied woman you are talking about an impossibility tomorrow is Saturday The bank closes at 12:00 and my train won't get me there until 10:00 and the time limit is up tomorrow in anyway they won't do it it's too late I replied God doesn't need any time and is never too late with him all things are possible I added I don't know anything about business but I

know all about God he replied it all sounds fine when I sit here listening to you but when I go out it's terrible he lived in a distant City and I did not hear from Him for a week then came a letter it read you were right I raised the money and I will never doubt again the truth of all that you told to me I saw him a few weeks later and I said what happened you evidently had plenty of time after all he replied my train was late and I got there just 15

minutes to twelve I walked into the bank quietly and said I've come for the loan and they gave it to me without a question it was the last fifteen minutes of the time allotted to Him an infinite spirit was not too late in this instance the man could never have demonstrated alone he needed someone to help him hold to the vision this is what one man can do for another Jesus Christ too knew the truth of this when he said if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask it

shall be done for them of my father which is in heaven one gets too close to his own affairs and becomes doubtful and fearful the friend or Healer sees clearly the success health or prosperity and never wavers because he is not too close to the situation it is much easier to demonstrate for someone else than for oneself so a person should not hesitate to ask for help if he feels himself wavering a keen observer of life once said no man can fail if some one person sees him successful such as the power of the vision

and many a great man owed his success to a wife or sister Our friend who believed in him and held without wavering to the perfect pattern this ends chapter 2 chapter 3 the power of the word a person knowing the power of the word becomes very careful of his conversation he has only to watch the reaction of his word to know that they do not return void through his spoken word man is continually making laws for himself I knew a man who said I always miss a car it invariably pulls out just as I arrived

his daughter said I always Catch a car it's sure to come just as I get there this occurred for years each has made a separate law for himself when a failure one of success this is the psychology of superstitions the horseshoe or rabbit's foot contains no power but man spoken word and belief that it will bring good luck kraits expectancy in the subconscious mind and attracts a lucky situation I find however this will not work when man has advanced spiritually and knows a higher Law one cannot turn back and must put away graven images for

example two men in my class had had great success in business for several months when suddenly everything went to smash we tried to analyze a situation and I found instead of making their affirmations and looking to God for success and prosperity they had each brought a lucky monkey I said oh I see you've been putting trust in the lucky monkeys instead of God put away the lucky Monkeys and call on the law of forgiveness for man has power to forgive or neutralize his mistakes they decided to throw the lucky monkeys down a coal hole and

all went well again this does not mean however that one should throw away every lucky ornament or horseshoe about the house but he must recognize that the power back of it is the one and only power God and that the object simply gives him a feeling of expectancy I was with a friend one day who was in Deep despair and crossing the street she picked up a [ __ ] shoo immediately she filled with joy and hope she said God had sent her the horseshoe in order to keep up her courage it was indeed at

that moment about the only thing they could have registered in her consciousness her hope became faith and she ultimately made a wonderful demonstration I wish to make the point clear that the men previously mentioned Were depending on the monkeys alone well this woman recognized the power back of the horseshoe I know in my own case it took a long while to get out of a belief that a certain thing brought disappointment if the thing happened disappointment invariably followed I found the only way I could make a change in the subconscious was by asserting there are

not two powers there was only one power God therefore there are not disappointments and this thing means a Happy surprise I noticed a change at once and happy surprises commenced coming my way I have a friend who said nothing would induce her to walk under a ladder I said if you are afraid you are giving in to a belief in two powers good and evil instead of one as God is absolute there can be no opposing power unless man makes the false of evil for himself to show that you believe in only one power God

and that there is no power or reality in evil walk under the ladder You see soon after she went to her bank she wished to open her box in the safe-deposit vault and there stood a ladder on her pathway it was impossible to reach the box without passing under the ladder she quailed with fear and turned to back she could not face the lion on her pathway however when she reached this street my words ring in her ears and she decided to return and walk under it it was a big moment in her life for

ladders had held her in bondage for Years she retraced her steps to the vault and the ladder was no longer there this so often happens if one is willing to do a thing he is afraid to do he does not have to it is the law of non-resistance which is so little understood someone has said that courage contains genius and magic face a situation fearlessly and there is no situation to face it falls away of its own weight the explanation is that fear attracted the Latter on the woman's pathway and fearlessness removed it thus the

invisible forces are ever working for man who is always pulling the strings himself though he does not know it owing to the vibratory power of words whatever man voices he begins to attract people who continually speak of disease and variably attracted after man knows the truth he cannot be too careful of his words for example I have a friend Who often says on the phone do come to see me and have an old-fashioned chat this old-fashioned chat means an hour of about five hundred to a thousand destructive words the principal topics being a loss lack

failure and sickness I replied no thank you I've had enough old-fashioned chats in my life they are too expensive but I will be glad to have a new fashioned chat and talk about what we want not what we don't want there is not saying That man only dares use his words for three purposes the he'll bless or prosper what man says of others will be said of him and what he wishes for another he is wishing for himself curses like chickens come home to roost if a man wishes someone bad luck he is sure to

attract bad luck himself if he wishes to aid someone in success he's wishing and aiding himself to success the body may be renewed and transformed through the spoken word and clear vision and Disease be completely wiped out of the consciousness the Mehta physician knows that all disease has a mental correspondence and in order to heal the body one must first heal the soul the soul is the subconscious mind and it must be saved from wrong thinking and the twenty-third Psalm we read he restoreth my soul this means that the subconscious mind or soul must be

restored with the right ideas and the mystical Is the marriage of the soul and the spirit or the subconscious and superconscious mind they must be one when the subconscious is flooded with the perfect ideas of the superconscious God and man are one I and the father are one that is he is one with the realm of perfect ideas he is the man made in God's likeness and image imagination and has given power and dominion over all created things his mind body and affairs it is safe to say that all sickness and Unhappiness comes from the

violation of the law of love a new commandment I give unto you love one another and in the game of life love or goodwill takes every trick for example a woman I know had for years an appearance of a terrible skin disease the doctors told her it was incurable and she was in despair she was on the stage and she feared she would soon have to give up her profession and she had no other means of support she however procured a Good engagement and on the opening night made a great hit she received flattering notices

from the critics and was joyful and elated the next day she received a notice of dismissal a man in the cast had been jealous of her success and had caused her to be sent away she felt hatred and resentment taking complete possession of her and she cried out Oh God don't let me hate that man that Night she worked for hours in the silence she said I soon came into a very deep silence I seem to be at peace with myself with the man and with the whole world I continued this for the two following

nights and on the third day I found I was healed completely of the skin disease and asking for love for goodwill she'd fulfilled the law for love is a fulfilling of the law and the disease which came from subconscious resentment was wiped out continual Criticism produces rheumatism as critical in harmonious thoughts caused unnatural deposits in the blood would settle in the joints false growths are caused by jealousy hatred unforgiveness fear etc every disease is caused by mind not at ease I said once in my class there is no use asking anyone what's the matter with

you we might just as well say who's the matter with you unforgiveness is the most prolific cause of disease it will harden Arteries or liver and affect the eyesight in its train are endless ills I called on a woman one day who said she was ill from heaven eaten a poisoned oyster I replied oh no the oyster was harmless you poisoned the oyster what's the matter with you she answered oh about nineteen people she had quarrelled with nineteen people and had become so in harmonious that she attracted the wrong moisture any in harmony and the

external indicates there Is mental in harmony as the within solo without man's only enemies are within himself and a man's foes shall be they of his own household personality is one of the last enemies to be overcome as this planet is taking its initiation in love it was Christ's message peace on earth goodwill towards man the enlightened men therefore endeavors to perfect himself upon his neighbor his work is with himself to send out goodwill and blessings to every man and The marvelous thing is that if one blesses a man he has no power to harm

him for example a man came to me asking to treat for success in business he was selling machinery an arrival appeared on the scene with what he proclaimed was a better machine and my friend feared to defeat I said first of all we must wipe out all fear and know that God protects her interest and that the divine idea must come out of the situation that is the right machine will be sold by the Right man to the right man and I added don't hold one critical thought towards that man bless him all day and

be willing not to sell your machine the divine idea so he went to the meeting fearless and non resistant and blessing the other man he said the outcome was very remarkable the other man's machine refused to work and he sold his without the slightest difficulty but I say unto you love your enemies bless them that curse you do Good to them that hate you and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you goodwill produces a great aura of protection about the one who sends it and no weapon that is formed against him shall

prosper in other words love and good will destroy the enemies with oneself and therefore one has no enemies and the external there is peace on earth for him who sends goodwill to man this ends chapter three chapter four the law Of non-resistance nothing on earth can resist an absolutely non-resistant person the Chinese say that water is the most powerful element because it is perfectly non-resistant it can wear away a rock and sweep all before it Jesus Christ said resist not evil for he knew in reality there is no evil therefore nothing to resist evil has

come of man's vain imagination or belief in two powers good and evil there is an old legend that Adam and Eve ate of Mya The tree of illusion and saw two powers instead of one power God therefore evil is a false law man is made for himself through the Sakuma or soul sleep soul sleep means that man's soul has been hypnotized by the race belief of sin sickness and death etc which is carnal or mortal thought and his affairs have out pictured his illusions we have heard in previous chapters that man's soul is his subconscious

mind and whatever he feels Deeply good or bad is out pictured by the faithful servant his body in Affairs show forth what he has been picturing the sick man has pictured sickness the poor man poverty the rich man wealth people often say why does a little child attract illness when it is too young even to know what it means I answer that children are sensitive and receptive to the thoughts of others around them and often I'll picture the fears of their parents I heard a metaphysician once say if you do not run your subconscious mind

yourself someone else will run it for you mothers often unconsciously attract illness and disaster to their children by continually holding them in thoughts of fear and watching for symptoms for example a friend asked a woman if her little girl had had the measles she replied promptly not yet this implied that she was expecting the illness and therefore preparing the way For what she did not want for herself and child however the man who is centered and established in right thinking the man who sends out only good will to his fellow man and was without fear

cannot be touched or influenced by the negative thoughts of others in fact he could only receive only good thoughts as he himself sends forth only good thoughts resistance is held for places man in a state of torment a metaphysician once gave me a wonderful Recipe for taking every trick in the game of life it is the Acme of non-resistance he gave it in this way at one time in my life I baptized children and of course they had many names now I no longer baptize children but i baptize events but I give every event the

same name if I have a failure i baptize at success in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost in this we see the great law of transmutation founded on non-resistance through his Spoken word every failure was transmuted into success for example a woman who required money and who knew the spiritual law of opulence was thrown continually in a business way with a man who made her feel very poor he talked to lack and limitation and she commenced to catch his poverty thoughts so she disliked him and blamed him

for her failure she knew in order to dem straight her supply she must first feel that she has received a feeling of Opulence a feeling of opulence must precede its manifestation it dawned on her one day that she was resisting the situation and seeing two powers instead of one so she blessed the man and baptized the situation success she affirmed as there was only one power God this man is here for my good and my prosperity just what he did not seem to be there for soon after that she met through this man a woman

who gave her for a service rendered several thousand Dollars and the man moved to a distant City and faded harmoniously from her life make the statement every man is a golden link in the chain of my good for all men our God in manifestation awaiting the opportunity given by man himself to serve the divine plan of his life bless your enemy and you robbed him of his ammunition his arrows will be transmuted into blessings this law is true of Nations as well as individuals bless a nation send a love and goodwill To every inhabitant and

it is robbed of its power to harm man can only get the right idea of a non-resistance through spiritual understanding my students have often said I don't want to be a doormat I reply when you use non-resistance with wisdom no one will ever be able to walk over you another example one day I was impatiently awaiting an important telephone call I resisted every call that came in and made no outgoing calls myself reasoning that it might interfere With the one I was awaiting instead of saying divine ideas never conflict the call will come at the

right time leaving it to infinite intelligence to arrange I commenced to manage things myself I made the battle mine not God's and remained tense and anxious the bell did not ring for an hour and I glanced at the phone and found the receiver had been off that length of time and the phone was disconnected mine's ayat e fear and belief in Interference had brought on a total eclipse of the telephone realizing what I had done I commenced a blessing the situation at once I baptized it success and affirmed I cannot lose any call that belongs

to me by divine right I'm under grace and not under law a friend rushed out to the nearest telephone to notify the company to reconnect she entered a crowded grocery but the proprietor left his customers and attended to the call himself my phone was connected at Once and two minutes later I received a very important call in about an hour afterward the one I had been awaiting once ships come in over a calm sea so long as man resists a situation he will have it with him if he runs away from it it will run

after him for example I repeated this to a woman one day and she replied how true that is I was unhappy at home I disliked my mother who is critical and domineering so I ran away and was married but I married my mother For my husband was exactly like my mother and I had the same situation to face again agree with thine adversary quickly this means agree that the adverse situation is good be undisturbed by it and it falls away of its own weight none of these things move me is a wonderful affirmation the inharmonious

situation comes from some in harmony within man himself when there is in him no emotional response to an in harmonious situation it fades away Forever from his pathway so we see man's work is ever with himself people have said to me give treatments to change my husband or my brother I replied no I will give treatments to change you when you change your husband and your brother will change one of my students was in the habit of lying I told her it was a failure method and if she lied she would be lied to -

she replied I don't care I can't possibly get along without lying one day she was speaking on the phone to A man with whom she was very much in love she turned to me and said I don't trust him I know he's lying to me I replied will you lie yourself so someone has to lie to you and you'll be sure it will be just the person you want the truth from sometime after that I saw her and she said I'm cured of lying her question what cured you she replied I have been living with

a woman who lied worse than I did one is often cursed of his faults by seeing them in others life Is a mirror and we find only ourselves reflected in our associates living in the past is a failure method and a violation of spiritual law Jesus Christ said behold now is the accepted time now is the day of salvation Lot's wife looked back and was turned into a pillar of salt the robbers of time are the past in the future man should bless the past and forget it if it keeps him in bondage and bless

the future knowing it has in store For him endless choice but to live fully in the now for example a woman came to me complaining that she had no money with which to buy Christmas gifts she said last year was so different I had plenty of money and give lovely presents and this year I have scarcely a cent I replied you will never demonstrate money while you're pathetic and live in the past live fully in the now and get ready to give Christmas presents dig your ditches and the money will come she Exclaimed I know

what to do I will buy some tinsel twine Christmas heels and wrapping paper I replied do that and the presents will come and stick themselves to the Christmas seals this too was showing financial fearlessness and faith in God as the reasoning mind said keep every since you have as you are not sure you will get any more she bought the seals paper and twine in a few days before Christmas received a gift of several Hundred dollars buying the seals and twine had impressed the subconscious with expectancy and open the way for the manifestation of the

money she purchased all the presents and plenty of time man must live suspended in the moment look well therefore to this day look well therefore to this day such as the salvation of the dawn he must be spiritually alert ever waiting his leads taking advantage of Every opportunity one day I said continually silently infinite spirit don't let me miss a trick and something very important was told to me that evening it is most necessary to begin the day with the right words make an affirmation immediately upon waking for example thy will be done this day

today is a day of completion I give thanks for this perfect day miracle shall follow miracle and wonder shall never cease make this a habit and one Will see wonders and miracles come into his life one morning I picked up a book and read look with wonder at that which is before you it seemed to be my message for the day so I repeated again and again look with wonder at that which is before you at about noon a large sum of money was given me which I had been desiring for a certain purpose in

the following chapter I will give affirmations that I have found most effective however one should Never use an affirmation unless it is absolutely satisfying and convincing to his own consciousness and often an affirmation has changed to suit different people for example the following has brought success to many I have a wonderful work in a wonderful way I give wonderful service for wonderful pay I gave the first two lines to one of my students and she added the last two it made a most wonderful statement as there should always be perfect payment For perfect service and

a rhyme sinks easily into the subconscious she went about singing it aloud and soon did receive wonderful work in a wonderful way and gave wonderful service for wonderful pay another student a businessman took it and changed the word work to business he repeated I have a wonderful business in a wonderful way and I give wonderful service for wonderful pay that afternoon he made a forty one thousand dollar deal Though there had been no activity in his affairs for months every affirmation must be carefully awarded and completely cover the ground for example I know a woman

who is in great need and made a demand for work she received a great deal of work but was never paid anything she now knows to add wonderful service for wonderful pay it is man's Divine right to have plenty more than enough his barns should be full and his cup should flow over this is God's idea for Man and when man breaks down the barriers of lack in his own consciousness the golden age will be his and every righteous desire of his heart fulfilled this ends chapter 4 chapter 5 the law of karma and the

law of forgiveness man receives only that which he gives the game of life is a game of boomerangs man's thoughts deeds and words return to him sooner or later with astounding accuracy this is the law of karma which is Sanskrit for come back Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap for example a friend told me the story of herself illustrating the law she said I make all my karma on my aunt whatever I say to her someone says to me I'm often irritable at home and one day said to my aunt who was

talking to me during dinner no more talk I wish tea in peace the following day I was lunching with a woman with whom I wished to make a great impression I was talking animatedly when she said no more Talk I wish tea in peace my friend is high in consciousness so her karma returns much more quickly than to one on the mental plane the more menos the more he is responsible for and a person with a knowledge of spiritual law which he does not practice suffers greatly and consequence the fear of the Lord law is

the beginning of wisdom if we read the word law it will make many passages in the Bible much clearer Vengeance is mine I will repay saith the Lord law it is the law which takes vengeance not God God sees man perfect created in his own image imagination and given power and Dominion this is the perfect idea of man registered in divine mind awaiting man's recognition for man can only be what he sees himself to be and only attain what he sees himself attaining nothing ever happens without an onlooker is an ancient saying man sees first

his Failure or success his joy or sorrow before it swings into visibility from the scene said in his own imagination we have observed this in the mother picturing disease for her child or woman seeing success for her husband obedience precedes Authority and a law obeys man when he obeys the law the law of electricity must be obeyed before becomes man servant when handled ignorantly it becomes man's deadly foe so with the laws of mind for example a Woman with a strong personal will wish she owned a house which belonged to an acquaintance and she often

made mental pictures of herself living in the house in the course of time the man died and she moved into the house several years afterwards coming into the knowledge of spiritual law she said to me do you think I had anything to do with that man's death I replied yes your desire was so strong everything made way for it but you paid your karmic debt your Husband who you loved devotedly died soon after and the house was a white elephant on your hands for years the original owner however could not have been affected by her

thoughts had he been positive in the truth nor her husband but they were both under karmic law the woman should have said feeling the great desire for the house infinite intelligence give me the right house equally as charming as this the house which is mine By divine right the divine selection would have given perfect satisfaction and brought good to all the divine pattern is the only safe pattern to work by desire is a tremendous force and must be directed in the right channels or chaos ensues and demonstrating the most important step is the first step

to ask a right man should always demand only that which is his by divine right to go back to the illustration had the woman taking this attitude if this house I Desire is mine I cannot lose it if it is not give me its equivalent the man might have decided to move out harmoniously had it been the divine selection for her or another house would have been substituted anything forced into manifestation through personal will is always ill got and as ever bad success man is admonished my will be done not thine and the curious thing

is man always gets just what he desires when he does relinquish personal will thereby Enabling infinite intelligence to work through him for example a woman came to me in great distress her daughter had determined to take a very hazardous trip and the mother was filled with fear she said she'd used every argument had pointed out the dangers to be encountered and forbidden her to go but the daughter became more and more rebellious and determined I said to the mother you are forcing your personal will upon your daughter would you have No right to do and

your fear of the trip is only attracting it for man attracts what he fears I added let go and take your mental hands off put it in God's hands and use this statement I put the situation in the hands of infinite love and wisdom if this trip is the Divine Plan I bless it and no longer resist but if it is not divinely plan I give thanks that it is now dissolved and dissipated a day or two after that her daughter said to her Mother I have given up the trip in a situation returned to

its native nothingness it is learning to stand which seems so difficult for man I have dealt more fully with this law in the chapter on non resistance I will give another example of sowing and reaping which came in the most curious way a woman came to me saying she had received a counterfeit $20 bill given to her at the bank she was much disturbed for she said the people at the bank will never Acknowledge their mistake I replied let us analyze the situation and find out why you attracted it she thought a few moments and

exclaimed I know it I sent a friend a lot of stage' money just for a joke so the law had sent her some stage money or doesn't know anything about jokes I said now we will call on the law of forgiveness and neutralize the situation so I said infinite spirit we call on the law of forgiveness and give thanks that She is under grace and not under law and cannot lose his twenty dollars which is hers by divine right now I said go back to the bank and tell them fearlessly that it was given to

you there by mistake she obeyed into her surprise they apologized and gave her another bill treating her most courteously so knowledge of the log is man power to rub out his mistakes man cannot force the external to be what he is not if he desires riches he must Be rich first in consciousness for example a woman came to me asking treatment for Prosperity she did not take much interest in her household affairs and her home was in great disorder I said to her if you wish to be rich you must be orderly all men with

great wealth are orderly in order is heavens first law I added you will never become rich with a burnt match in a pin cushion she had a good sense of humor and commenced immediately putting her House in order she arranged furniture straightened out funeral drawers cleaned rugs and soon made a big financial demonstration a gift from a relative the woman herself became made-over and keeps herself keyed up financially by being ever watchful of the external and expecting prosperity knowing God is her supply many people aren't ignorant to the fact that gifts in things or investments

and that hoarding and saving invariably leads to Loss scattereth and yet increaseth and there is that withholdeth more than his meet but it tendeth to poverty for example I knew a man who wanted to buy a fur-lined overcoat he and his wife went to various shops but there was none he wanted he said they were all too cheap looking at last he was shown one the salesman said was valued at $1000 but which the manager would sell him for five hundred dollars as it was late in the season His financial possessions amounted to about seven

hundred dollars the reasoning mind would have said you can't afford to spend nearly all you have on a coat but he was very intuitive and never reasoned he turned to his wife and said if I get this coat I'll make a ton of money so his wife consented weakly about a month later he received a $10,000 Commission the coat made him feel so rich it linked him with success and prosperity without the coat he would not Have received the Commission it was an investment paying large dividends if man ignores his leadings to spend or to

give the same amount of money we'll go in an uninteresting or unhappy way for example a woman told me on Thanksgiving Day she informed her family that they could not afford a Thanksgiving dinner she had the money but decided to save it a few days later someone entered her room and took from the buell drawer the exact amount that Dinner would have cost a la Oh he stands back to the man who spends fearlessly with wisdom for example one of my students was shopping with her little nephew the child clamored for a toy which she

told him she could not afford to buy she realized suddenly that she was seeking lack and not recognizing God as her supply so she bought the toy and on her way home picked up in the street the exact amount of money she had paid for man's supplies inexhaustible and Unfailing when fully trusted but faith or trust must precede the demonstration according to your faith be it unto you faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen for faith holds the vision steady and the adverse pictures are dissolved and dissipated and

in due season we shall reap if we faint not Jesus Christ brought the good news the gospel that there was a higher law than the law of karma and that the law Transcends the law of karma it is the law of grace or forgiveness it is the law which frees man from the law of cause and effect the law of consequence under grace and not under law we are told that on this plane man reaps where he has not sown the gifts of God are simply poured out upon him all that the kingdom affords is

his this continued state of bliss awaits the man who has overcome the race or world thought in the world thought there's tribulation But Jesus Christ said be of good cheer I have overcome the world the world thought is that of sin sickness and death he saw their absolute unreality and said sickness and sorrow shall pass away and death itself the last enemy be overcome we know now from a scientific standpoint the death could be overcome by stamping the subconscious mind with a conviction of eternal youth and eternal life the subconscious being simply power without direction

carries out orders Without questioning working under the direction of the superconscious the Christ our God within man the resurrection of the body would be accomplished man would no longer throw off his body and death it would be transformed into the body electric song by Walt Whitman for Christianity is founded upon the forgiveness of sins and an empty tomb this ends chapter 5 chapter 6 casting the burden and pressing the subconscious when man knows His own powers and the workings of his mind his great desire is to find an easy and quick way to impress the

subconscious with good for simply an intellectual knowledge of the truth will not bring results in my own case I found the easiest way is in casting the burden a metaphysician once explained it in this manner he said the only thing that gives anything weight in nature is the law of gravitation and if a boulder could be Taken high above the planet there'd be no weight in the boulder and this is what Jesus Christ meant when he said my yoke is easy and my burden is light he had overcome the world vibration and functioned in the

fourth dimensional realm where there's only perfection completion life and joy he said come to me all ye that are labor and are heavy-laden and I will give you rest take my yoke upon you for my yoke is easy and my burden is light We are also told in the fifty-fifth Sun to cast thy burden upon the Lord many passages in the Bible state that the battle is God's not man's and the man is always to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord this indicates that the superconscious mind or Christ within is the department

which fights man's battle and relieves him of his burdens we see therefore that man violates law if he carries a burden and a burden is an adverse thought or Condition and this thought or condition has its root in the subconscious it seems almost impossible to make any headway directing the subconscious from the conscious or reasoning mind as the reasoning mind that the intellect is limited in its conceptions and filled with doubts and fears how scientific it then is to cast the burden upon the superconscious mind our Christ within where it is made light or dissolved

into its native nothingness for example a Woman in urgent need of money made light upon the Christ within the superconscious with the statement I cast this burden of lack on the Christ within and I go free to have plenty the belief in LAC was her burden and as she cast it upon the superconscious with its belief of Plenty an avalanche a supply was the result we read the Christ in you the hope of glory another example one of my students had been given a new piano and there is no room in her studio for it

Until she had moved out the old one she was in a state of perplexity she wanted to keep the old piano but knew of no place to send it she became desperate as the new piano was to be sent immediately in fact was on its way with no place to put it she said it came to her to repeat I cast this burden on the Christ within and I go free a few moments later her phone rang and a woman friend asked if she might rent her old piano and it was Moved out a few

minutes before the new one arrived I know a woman whose burden was resentment she said I cast this burden of resentment on the Christ within and I go free to be loving harmonious and happy the almighty superconscious flooded the subconscious with love and her whole life was changed for years resentment has held her in a state of torment and imprisoned her soul the subconscious mind the statement should be made over and over and over Sometimes for hours at a time silently or audibly with quietness but determination I have often compared it to winding up a

Victrola we must wind ourselves up with spoken words I've noticed in casting the burden after a little while one seems to see clearly it is impossible to have clear vision while in the throes of carnal mind doubts and fear poison the mind and body an imagination runs riot attracting disaster and disease and steadily Repeating the affirmation I cast this burden on the Christ within and go free the vision clears and with it a feeling of relief and sooner or later comes the manifestation of good be it health happiness or supply one of my students weren't

asked me to explain the darkness before the dawn I referred in a preceding chapter to the fact that often before the big demonstration everything seems to go wrong and deep depression clouds the consciousness it means that Out of the subconscious are rising the doubts and fears of the ages his old derelict said the subconscious rise to the surface to be put out it is then that man should clap his symbols like the Jehoshaphat and give thanks that he has saved even though he seems surrounded by the enemy the situation of lack or disease the student

continued how long must one remain in the dark and I replied until one can see in the dark and casting the burden enables one to See in the dark in order to impress the subconscious active faith is always essential faith without works is dead in these chapters I've endeavored to bring out this point Jesus Christ showed active faith when he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground before he give thanks for the loaves and fishes I will give another example showing how necessary this step is in fact act of faith is the bridge

over which man passes to his promised Land through misunderstanding a woman had been separated from her husband whom she loved deeply he refused all offers of reconciliation and would not communicate with her in any way coming into the knowledge of spiritual law she denied the appearance of separation she made this statement there is no separation in divine mind therefore I cannot be separated from the love and companionship which are mine by divine right she showed active faith by Arranging a place for him at the table every day thereby impressing the subconscious with a picture of

his return over a year past but she never wavered and one day he walked in the subconscious is often impressed through music music has a fourth-dimensional quality and releases the soul from imprisonment it makes wonderful things seem possible and easy of accomplishment I have a friend who uses her Victrola daily for This purpose it puts her in a perfect harmony and releases the imagination another woman often dances while making her affirmations the rhythm and harmony of music in motion carry her words forth with tremendous power the student must also remember not to despise the day

of small things invariably before a demonstration come signs of land before Columbus reached America he saw birds and twigs which Showed him land was near so it is with a demonstration but often the student mistakes it for the demonstration itself and is disappointed for example a woman had spoken the word for a set of dishes not long afterwards a friend gave her a dish which was old and cracked she came to me and said well I asked for a set of dishes and all I got was a cracked plate I replied the plate was only

a sign of land it shows your dishes are coming look upon it as a bird and seaweed and Now long afterwards the dishes came continually making belief and presses the subconscious if one makes believe he is rich and makes believe he is successful in due time he will reap children are always making believe and except ye be converted and become as little children ye shall not enter the kingdom of heaven for example I know of a woman who was very poor but no one could make her feel poor she owned a small amount of money

from rich friends Who constantly reminded her of her poverty and to be careful and saving regardless are there admonitions she would spend all her earnings on a hat or make someone a gift and be in a rapturous state of mind her thoughts were always centered on beautiful clothes and rings and things but without envying others she lived in a world of the wondrous and only riches seemed real to her before long she married a rich man and rings And things became visible I do not know whether the man was the divine selection but opulence had

a manifest in her life as she had imaged only opulence there is no peace or happiness for man until he has erased all fears from the subconscious fear is misdirected energy and must be redirected or transmuted into faith I am asked so often by my students how can I get rid of fear a reply by walking up to the things you are afraid of the lion takes its Fierceness from your fear walk up to the lion and he will disappear run away and he runs after you I have shown in previous chapters how the lion

of lack disappeared when the individual spent money fearlessly showing faith that God was his supply and therefore unfailing many of my students have come out of the bondage of poverty and are now bountifully supplied through losing all fear of letting money go out the subconscious is impressed with the truth That God is the giver and the gift therefore as one is one with a Giver here's one with a gift how splendid statement is I now thank God the giver forgot the gift man has so long separated himself from his good and his supply through thoughts

of separation and lack as sometimes it takes dynamite to dislodge these false beliefs from the subconscious and the dynamite is a big situation we see in the foregoing illustration how the individual was Freed from his bondage by showing fearlessness man should always watch himself hourly to detect if his motive for action is fear or faith jewsí this day whom we shall serve fear or faith perhaps once fear is of personality then do not avoid the people feared be willing to meet them cheerfully and they will either prove golden links in the chain of one's good

or disappear harmoniously from one's pathway perhaps once fear is of disease or germs then One should be fearless and undisturbed in a germ Laden situation and he would be immune one can only contract germs while vibrating at the same rate as the germ and fear drags men down to the level of the germ of course the disease Laden germ is the product of carnal mind as all thought must objectify germs do not exist in the superconscious or divine mind therefore are the product of man's feign imagination and the twinkling of an eye Man's release will

come when he realizes there is no power and evil the material world will fade away in the fourth dimensional world the world of the wonders will swing into manifestation and I saw a new heaven and a new earth and there shall be no more death neither sorrow nor crying neither shall be any more pain for the former things are passed away in this ends chapter 6 chapter 7 love every man on this planet is taking his initiation in love a new Commandment I give unto you that ye love one another response key states in tertium

organum the love is a cosmic phenomenon and opens to men the fourth dimensional world the world of the wondrous real love is selfless and free from fear it pours itself out upon the object of its affection without demanding any return its joy is in the joy of giving love is God in manifestation and the strongest magnetic force in the universe Pure unselfish love draws to itself its own it does not need to seek or demand scarcely anyone has the faintest conception of real love man is selfish tyrannical or fearful in his affections thereby losing the

thing he loves jealousy is the worst enemy of love for the imagination runs riot seeing the loved one attracted to another and invariably these fears objectify if they are not neutralized for example a woman came to me in deep distress the man she Loved had left her for other women and said he never intended to marry her she was torn with jealousy and resentment and said she hoped he would suffer as he had made her suffer and added how could he leave me when I loved him so much I replied you are not loving that

man you are hating him and added you can never receive what you have never given give a perfect love and you will receive a perfect love perfect yourself on this man give him a perfect unselfish love Demanding nothing in return do not criticize or condemn and bless him wherever he is she replied no I won't bless him and as I know where he is she said while I said that is not real love when you send out real love real love will return to you either from this man or his equivalent for if this man

is not the divine selection you will not want him as you are one with God you are one with a love which belongs to you by divine right several months passed and Matters remained about the same but she was working conscientiously with herself I said when you were no longer disturbed by his cruelty he will cease to be cruel as you are attracting it through your own emotions then I told her of a Brotherhood in India who never said good morning to each other they used these words I salute the divinity in you they saluted

the divinity in every man and in the wild animals in the jungle and they were never harmed for they saw only God In every living thing I said salute the divinity in this man and say I see your divine self only I see you as God sees you perfect made in His image and likeness she found she was becoming more poised and gradually losing her resentment he was a captain and she always called him the captain one day she said suddenly God blessed the cap wherever he is I replied now that is real love and

when you have become a complete circle and Are no longer disturbed by the situation you will have his love or attract its equivalent I was moving at this time and did not have a telephone so was out of touch with her for a few weeks when one morning I received a letter saying we are married at the earliest opportunity I paid her a call my first words were what happened oh she exclaimed a miracle one day I woke up and all suffering had ceased I saw him That evening and he asked me to marry him

we were married in about a week and I've never seen a more devoted man there is an old saying no man is your enemy no man is your friend every man is your teacher so one should become impersonal and learn what each man has to teach him and soon he would learn his lesson and be free the woman's lover was teaching her selfless love which every man sooner or later must learn suffering is not Necessary for man's development it is the result of violation of spiritual law but few people seem able to rouse themselves from

their sole sleep without it when people are happy they usually become selfish and automatically the law of karma is set in action man often suffers loss through lack of appreciation I know a woman who had a very nice husband but she said often I don't care anything about being married But that is nothing against my husband I'm simply not interested in married life she had other interests and scarcely remembered she had a husband she only thought of him when she saw him one day her husband told her he was in love with another woman and

left she came to me in distress and resentment I replied it is exactly what you spoke the word for you said you didn't care anything about being married so the subconscious worked to get you unmarried She said oh yes I see people get what they want and often feel very much hurt she soon became in perfect harmony with the situation and knew they were both much happier apart when a woman becomes indifferent or critical and ceases to be an inspiration to her husband he misses the stimulus of the early relationship and is restless and unhappy

a man came to me dejected miserable and poor his wife was interested in the science of numbers and had had him read it seems The report was not very favorable for he said my wife says I'll never amount to anything because I am a to I replied I don't care what your number is you are a perfect idea in divine mind and we will demand the success and prosperity which are already planned for you by the infinite intelligence within a few weeks yet a very fine position and a year or two later he achieved a

brilliant success as a writer no man is a success in a business unless he loves His work the picture the artist paints for love of his art is his greatest work the potboiler is always something to live down no man can attract money if he despises it many people are kept in poverty by saying money means nothing to me and I have a contempt for people who have it this is the reason so many artists are poor their contempt for money separates them from it I remember hearing one artist say of another he's no good

as an artist he has money in the bank this attitude of a mind of course separates man from his supply he must be in harmony with a thing in order to attract it money is God in manifestation as freedom from want in limitation but it must always be kept in circulation and put to right uses hoarding and saving react with grim vengeance this does not mean that man should not have houses and lots stocks And bonds for the barns of the righteous man shall be full it means a man should not hoard even the principle

if an occasion arises when money is necessary and letting it go up fearlessly and cheerfully he opens the way for more to come in for God is men's unfailing an inexhaustible supply this is the spiritual attitude towards money and the great bank of the universe never fails we see an example of hoarding in the film production of greed the woman won $5,000 in a lottery but would not spend it she hoarded and save that her husband's suffer and starve and eventually she scrubbed floors for a living she loved the money itself and put it above

everything and one night she was murdered and the money taken from her this is an example of where love of money is the root of all evil money in itself is good and beneficial but used for destructive purposes hoarded and Saved or considered more important than love brings disease and disaster and the loss of money itself follow the path of love and all things are added for God is love and God is supply follow the path of selfishness and greed and the supply vanishes or man is separated from it for example I knew the case

of a very rich woman who hoarded her income she rarely gave anything away but bought and bought things for herself she was very fond of necklaces and a friend once asked her How many she possessed she replied 67 she bought them and put them away carefully wrapped in tissue paper had to use the necklaces it would have been quite illegitimate but she was violating the law of use her closets were filled with clothes she never wore and jewels which never saw the light the woman's arms were gradually becoming paralyzed from holding onto things and eventually

she was considered incapable of looking after her affairs and her Wealth was handed over to others to manage so man and ignorance of the law brings about his own destruction all disease all unhappiness come from the violation of the law of love man's boomerangs of hate resentment and criticism come back laden with sickness and sorrow love seems almost a lost art but the man with the knowledge of spiritual law knows it must be regained for without it he has become as surrounding brass and tinkling symbols For example I had a student who came to me

month after month to clean her consciousness of resentment after a while she arrived at the point where she resented only one woman but that one woman kept her busy little by little she became poised in harmonious and one day our resentment was wiped away she came in radiant and exclaimed you can't understand how I feel the woman said something to me and instead of being furious I was loving and kind and she Apologized and was perfectly lovely to me can understand the marvelous lightness I feel within love and goodwill are invaluable and business for example

a woman came to me complaining of her employer she said she was cold and critical and she did not want her in the position while I applied salute the divinity in the woman and send her love she said I can't she's a marble woman I answered you Remember the story of the sculptor who asked for a certain piece of marble he was asked why he wanted it and he replied because there is an angel in the marble and out of it he produced a wonderful work of art she said very well I'll try it a

week later she came back and said I did what you told me to and now the woman is very kind and took me out in her car people are sometimes filled with remorse for having done someone an unkindness perhaps years ago If the wrong cannot be righted in effect cannot be neutralized by doing someone a kindness in the present this one thing I do forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forth unto things where are before sorrow regret and remorse tear down the cells of the body and poisoned the atmosphere of the individual a

woman said to me in deep sorrow treat me to be happy and joyous for my sorrow makes me so irritable with members of my family that I keep making More karma I was asked to treat a woman who was mourning for her daughter I denied all belief in loss and separation and affirmed that God was the woman's joy love and peace the woman gained her poise at once by sent word by her son not to treat any longer because she was so happy it wasn't respectable so mortal mind loves to hang on to its griefs

and regrets I knew a woman who went about bragging of her troubles so of course she always had something to brag about The old idea was if a woman did not worry about her children she was not a good mother now we know that mother fear is responsible for many of the diseases and accidents which come into the lives of children for fear pictures vividly the disease or situation feared and these pictures objectify if not neutralized happy is the mother who can say sincerely that she puts her child in God's hand and knows therefore that

he Has divinely protected for example a woman awoke suddenly in the night feeling her brother was in great danger instead of giving into her fears she commenced making statements of truth saying man is a perfect idea in divine mind and is always in his right place therefore my brother is in his right place and is divinely protected the next day she found that her brother had been in close proximity to an explosion in a mind but had miraculously escaped so man Is his brother's keeper in thought and every man should know that the thing he

loves dwells in the secret place of the Most High and abides under the shadow of the Almighty there shall no evil befall thee neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling perfect love casteth out fear he that feareth is not made perfect in love and love is the fulfilling of the law this ends chapter 7 chapter 8 intuition or guidance there is nothing too great of accomplishment for the man Who knows the power of his word and who follows his intuitive leads by the word he starts in action unseen forces can rebuild his body or

remould his affairs it is therefore of the utmost importance to choose the right words and the student carefully selects the affirmations he wishes to catapult into the invisible he knows that God is his supply that there is a supply for every demand and that his spoken word releases this supply ask in he shall receive man Must make the first move draw nigh to God and He will draw nigh to you I've often been asked just how to make a demonstration I reply speak the word and then do not do anything until you get a definite

lead demand the leads saying infinite Spirit revealed to me the way let me know if there's anything for me to do the answer will come through intuition or hunch a chance remark from someone or passage in a book etc the answers are sometimes Quite startling in their exactness for example a woman desired a large sum of money she spoke the words infinite spirit open the way for my immediate supply that all that his mind by divine rights now reach me in great avalanches of abundance then she added give me a definite lead let me know

if there's anything for me to do the thought came quickly give a certain friend who had helped her spiritually a hundred dollars she told her friend who said wait and Get another lead before giving it so she waited and that day met a woman who said to her I gave someone a dollar today it was just as much for me as it would be for you to give someone a hundred this was indeed an unmistakable lead so she knew she was right in giving the hundred dollars it was a gift which proved a great investment

for shortly after that a large sum of money came to her in a remarkable way giving opens the way for receiving in order to create activity in Finances one should give tithing are giving one-tenth of one's income is an old Jewish custom and is a sure way to bring increase many of the richest men in the country have been tithers and I've never known it to fail as an investment the tenth part goes forth and returns blessed and multiplied but the gift or tithe must be given with love and cheerfulness for God loveth a cheerful

Giver bills should be paid cheerfully all money should be sent Forth fearlessly and with a blessing this attitude of mine makes man master of money it is his to obey in his spoken word then opens vast reservoirs of wealth man himself limits his supply by his limited vision sometimes the student has a great realization of wealth but is afraid to act the vision and action must go hand in hand as in the case of the man who bought the fur lined overcoat a woman came to me asking me to speak the word for position so

I demanded infinite Spirit open the way for this woman's right position never asked for just a position asked for the right position the place already planned in divine mind as it is the only one that will give satisfaction I then gave thanks that she had already received and that it would manifest quickly very soon she had three positions offered her two in New York and one in Palm Beach and she did not know which to choose I said ask for a Definite lead the time was almost up and was still undecided when one day she

telephoned when I woke up this morning I could smell Palm Beach she had been there before and knew it too balmy fragrance I replied well if you can smell Palm Beach from here it is certainly your lead she accepted the position and it proved a great success often once lead comes at an unexpected time one day I was walking down the street when I suddenly felt a Strong urge to go to a certain bakery a block or two away the reasoning mind resisted arguing there's nothing there that you want however I had learned not to

reason so I went to the bakery looked at everything and there was certainly nothing there that I wanted but coming out I encountered a woman I had thought of often and who was in great need of the help which I could give her so often one goes for one thing and finds another intuition is a spiritual faculty and Does not explain but simply points the way a person often receives a lead during a treatment the idea that comes may seem quite irrelevant but some of God's leadings are mysterious in the class one day I was

treating that each individual would receive a definite lead a woman came to me afterwards instead while you were treating I got the hunch to take my furniture out of storage and get an apartment the woman had come to be treated for Health I told her I knew and getting a home of her own her health would improve and I added I believe your trouble which is a congestion has come from having things stored away congestion of things causes congestion in the body you'll violated the law of use and your body is paying the penalty so

I gave thanks that divine order was established in her mind body and affairs people little dream of how their affairs React on the body there was a mental correspondence for every disease a person might receive instantaneous healing through the realization of his body being a perfect idea of divine mind people little dream of how their affairs react on the body there is a mental correspondence for every disease a person might receive instantaneous healing through the realization of his body being a perfect idea in divine mind and therefore whole and perfect but if He continues his

destructive thinking hoarding hating fearing condemning the disease will return Jesus Christ knew that all sickness comes from sin but admonished the leper after the healing to go and sin no more lest a worse thing come upon him so man's soul or subconscious mind must be washed whiter than snow for permanent healing and the Metta physician is always delving deep for the correspondence Jesus Christ said condemn not lest ye also be condemned Judge not lest ye be judged many people have attracted disease and unhappiness through condemnation of others what man condemns in others he attracts to

himself for example a friend came to me in anger and distress because her husband had deserted her for another woman she condemned the other woman and said continually she knew he was a married man and had no right to accept his attentions I replied stop condemning the woman bless her and be through with the situation otherwise you are attracting the same thing to yourself she was deaf to my words in a year or two later became deeply interested in a married man herself man picks up a livewire whenever he criticizes or condemns and may expect

a shock indecision is a stumbling block in many a pathway in order to overcome it make this statement repeatedly I am always under direct Inspiration I make right decisions quickly indecision is a stumbling block in many a pathway in order to overcome it make this statement repeatedly I'm always under direct inspiration I make the right decisions quickly these words impress the subconscious and soon one finds himself awake and alert making his right moves without hesitation I have found it destructive to look to the psychic plane for guidance as it is the plane of many Minds

and not the one mind as man opens his mind the subjectivity he becomes a target for destructive forces the psychic plane is the result of man's mortal thought and is on the plane of opposites he may receive either good or bad messages the science of numbers and the reading of horoscopes keep man down on the mental or mortal plane for they deal only with the karmic path I know of a man who should have been dead years ago according to his horoscope but he is Alive and leader of one of the biggest movements in the

country for the upliftment of humanity it takes a very strong mind to neutralize a prophecy of evil the student should declare every false prophecy shall come to naught every plan my father in heaven has not planned shall be dissolved and dissipated the divine idea now comes to pass however if any good message has ever been given one of coming happiness of wealth Harbor and expected and it Will manifest sooner or later through the law of expectancy man's will should be used to back the universal will I will that the will of God be done it

is God's will to give every man every righteous desire of his heart and man's will should be used to hold the perfect vision without wavering the prodigal son said I will arise and go to my father it is indeed often an effort of the will to leave the husks and swine of mortal thinking it is so much easier for the Average person to have fear than faith so faith is an effort of the will as man becomes spiritually awakened he recognizes that any external in harmony is the correspondence of mental and harmony if he stumbles

or falls he may know he is stumbling or falling in consciousness one day a student was walking along the street condemning someone in her thoughts she was saying mentally that woman is the most disagreeable woman on earth When suddenly three Boy Scouts rushed around the corner and almost knocked her over she did not condemn the Boy Scouts but immediately called on the law of forgiveness and saluted the divinity in the woman wisdoms way are ways of pleasantness and all her paths are peace when one has made his demands upon the universal he must be ready

for surprises everything may seem to be going wrong when in reality it is going right for example a Woman was told that there was no loss in divine mind therefore she could not lose anything which belong to her anything lost would be returned or she would receive its equivalent several years previously she had lost $2,000 she had loaned the money to a relative during her lifetime but the relative had died leaving no mention of it in her will the woman was resentful and angry and as she had no written statement of the transaction she never

received the Money so she determined to deny the loss and collect the $2,000 from the bank of the universal she had to begin by forgiving the woman has resentment and unforgiveness closed the doors of this wondrous Bank she made this statement I deny loss there is no loss in divine mind therefore I cannot lose the $2,000 which belongs to me by divine right as one door shuts another door opens she was living in an apartment house which was For sale and in the lease was a clause stating that if the house was sold the tenant

would be required to move out within 90 days suddenly the landlord broke the leases and raised the rent again injustice was on her pathway but this time she was undisturbed she blessed the landlord and said as the rent has been raised it means that I'll be that much richer for God is my supply new leases were made out for the advanced rent but by some divine mistake The 90 day clause had been forgotten soon after the landlord had an opportunity to sell the house an account of the mistake in the new leases the tenants held

possession for another year the agent offered each tenant $200 if he would vacate several families moved three remained including the woman a month or two passed and the agent again appeared this time he said to the woman you break the lease for the sum of $1,500 and flashed upon her here comes To $2,000 she remembered having said to friends in the house we will all act together if anything more is said about leaving so her lead was to consult her friends these friends said well if they have offered you 1500 they will certainly give 2,000

so she received his check for $2000 for giving up the apartment it was certainly a remarkable working of the law and the apparent injustice were merely opening the way for her demonstration it proved that There is no loss and when man takes his spiritual stat he collects all that is his from this great reservoir of God I will restore to you the years the locusts have eaten these adverse thoughts alone robbed man for no man gives to himself but himself and no man takes away from himself but himself man is here to prove God and

to bear the witness to the truth and he can only prove God by bringing plenty out of lack and justice out of injustice prove Me now herewith said the Lord of Hosts if I will not open you the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing that there shall not be room enough to receive it this ends chapter 8 chapter 9 perfect self-expression or the divine design there is for each man perfect self-expression there is a place which he is to fill and no one else can fill something which he is to do which no

one else can do it is his destiny this achievement is held a perfect idea in Divine mind awaiting man's recognition as the imaging faculty is the creative faculty it is necessary for man to see the idea before it can manifest so man's highest demand is for the Divine Design of his life he may not have the faintest conception of what it is for there is possibly some marvelous talent hidden deep within him his demand should be infinite spirit open the way for the divine design of my life to manifest that the genius within me now

be Released let me see clearly the perfect plan the perfect plan includes health wealth love and perfect self-expression this is the square of life which brings perfect happiness when one has made this demand he may find great changes taking place in his life for nearly every man has wandered far from the Divine Design I know in one woman's case it was as though a cyclone had struck her fares but readjustments came quickly and new And wonderful conditions took the place of old ones perfect self-expression will never be labor but of such absorbing interest that it

will almost seem like play the student knows also as a man comes into the world financed by God the supply needed for his perfect self-expression will be at hand many a genius has struggled for years with the problem of supply when his spoken word and faith would have released quickly the necessary funds for Example after the glass one day a man came to me and handed me a cent he said I have just seven cents in the world and I'm going to give you one for I have faith in the power of your spoken word

I want you to speak the word for my perfect self-expression and prosperity I spoke the word and did not see him again until a year later he came in one day successful and happy with a roll of yellow bills in his pocket he said immediately after you spoke the word I Had a position offered to me in a distant City and I'm now demonstrating health happiness and supply a woman's perfect self-expression may be in becoming a perfect wife a perfect mother a perfect homemaker and not necessarily in having a public career demand definite leads and

the way will be made easy and successful one should not visualize or force a mental picture when he demands the Divine Design to come into his conscious mind he will receive Flashes of inspiration and begin to see himself making some great accomplishment this is the picture or idea he must hold without wavering the thing man seeks is seeking Him the telephone was seeking Bell parents should never force careers and professions upon their children with a knowledge of spiritual truth the divine plan could be spoken for early in childhood or prenatally a prenatal treatment should be

let the God in this Child have perfect expression let the divine design of his mind body and affairs be made manifest throughout his life throughout eternity God's will be done not man's God's pattern not man's pattern is the command we find running through all the scriptures and the Bible is a book dealing with the science of the mind it is a book telling man how to release his soul or subconscious mind from bondage the battles described are pictures of men waging war against Immortal thoughts a man's foes shall be they of his own household every

man is a Jehoshaphat and every man is David who slays Goliath mortal thinking with a little white stone faith so man must be careful that his is not the wicked and slothful servant who buried his talent there is a terrible penalty to be paid for not using one's ability often fear stands between man and his perfect self-expression stagefright has hampered many a genius this may be overcome by The spoken word or treatment the individual then loses all self consciousness and feels simply that he has a channel for infinite intelligence to express itself through he is

under direct inspiration fearless and confident for he feels that it is the father within him who does the work a young boy came off into my class with his mother he asked me to speak the word for his coming examinations at school I told him to make the statement I am one With infinite intelligence I know everything I should know on this subject he had an excellent knowledge of history but was not sure of his arithmetic I saw him afterwards and he said I spoke the word for my arithmetic and passed with the highest honors

but thought I could depend on myself for history and got a very poor amar man often receives a setback when he is too sure of himself which means he is trusting in his personality and not the Father within another one of my students gave me a sample of this she took an extended trip abroad one summer visiting many countries where she was ignorant of the languages she was calling for guidance and protection every minute and her affairs went smoothly and miraculously her luggage was never delayed nor lost accommodations were always ready for her at the

best hotels and she had perfect service wherever she went she returned to New York knowing The language she felt God was no longer necessary so she looked after her affairs in an ordinary manner everything went wrong her trunks delayed amid in harmony and confusion the student must form the habit of practicing the presence of God every minute in all thy ways acknowledge him nothing is too small nor too great sometimes an insignificant incident may be the turning point in a man's life Robert Fulton watched some boiling water Simmering in a tea kettle saw a seam

boat I have seen a student often keep back his demonstration through resistance or pointing the way he pins his faith to one channel only and dictates just the way he desires the manifestation to come which brings things to a standstill my way not your way is the command of infinite intelligence like all power be it steam or electricity it must have a non-resistant engine or instrument to Work through and man is that engine or instrument over and over again man is told to stand still Oh Judah fear not but tomorrow go out against them for

the Lord will be with you you shall not need to fight this battle set yourselves stand ye still and see the salvation of the Lord with you we see this in the incidents of the $2,000.00 coming to the woman through the landlord when she became non resistant and undisturbed and a woman who won the man's love after all Suffering had ceased the students goal is poise poises power or gives God power a chance to rush through man to will and to do it's good pleasure poised he thinks clearly and makes right decisions quickly he never

misses a trick anger blurs the visions poisons the blood is the root of many diseases and causes wrong decision leading to failure it has been named one of the worst sins as its reaction is so harmful the student learns that in Metaphysics sin has a much broader meaning than in the old teaching whatsoever is not of faith is sin he finds that fear and worry are deadly sins they are inverted faith and through distorted mental pictures bring to pass the things he fears his work is to drive out these enemies from the subconscious mind when

man is fearless he is finished matha link says that man is God afraid so as we read in the previous chapters men can only vanish fear by walking up To the thing he's afraid of when Jehoshaphat and his army prepared to meet the enemy singing praise the Lord forced mercy and dorth forever they found their enemies had destroyed each other and there is nothing to fight for example a woman asked a friend to deliver a message to another friend the woman feared to give the message as a reasoning mindset don't get mixed up in this

affair don't give that message she was troubled in spirit before she Had given her promise at last she determined to walk up to the lion and call on the law of divine protection she met the friend to whom she was to deliver the message she opened her mouth to speak it when her friend said so-and-so has left town this made it unnecessary to give the message as a situation depended on the person being in town as she was willing to do it she was not obliged to and as she did not fear the situation vanished

the student Often delays his demonstration through a belief in incompletion he should make this statement in divine mind there is only completion therefore my demonstration is completed my perfect work my perfect home my perfect health whatever he demands our perfect ideas registered in divine mind and must manifest under grace in a perfect way he gives thanks he has already received on the invisible and makes active Preparation for receiving on the visible one of my students was in need of a financial demonstration she came to me and asked why it was not completed I replied perhaps

you are in the habit of leaving things unfinished and the subconscious has gotten into the habit of not completing her without soda within I'll go home and finish something I commenced weeks ago and I know it will be symbolic of my demonstration She sewed assiduously and the article was soon completed shortly after the money came in a most curious manner her husband was paid his salary twice that month he told the people of their mistake and they sent a word to keep it when man asked believing he must receive for God creates his own channels

- sometimes asked suppose one has several talents how is he to know which one to choose to man to be shown definitely say infinite spirit give me a Definite lead revealed to me my perfect self-expression show me which talent I am to make use of now I have known people to suddenly enter a new line of work and be fully equipped with little or no training so make the statement I am fully equipped for the divine plan of my life and be fearless in grasping opportunities some people are cheerful givers but bad receivers they refuse

gifts through pride or some negative reason thereby blocking their channels And invariably find themselves eventually with little or nothing for example a woman who had given away a great deal of money had a gift offered her of several thousand dollars she refused to take it saying she did not need it shortly after that her finances were tied up and she found herself in debt for that amount man should receive gracefully the bread returning to him upon the water freely he have given freely ye shall Receive there is always the perfect balance of giving and receiving

and though man should give without thinking of returns he violates law if he does not accept the Returns which come to him for all gifts are from God man being merely the channel they thought of lack should never be held over the giver for example when the man gave her the 1 cent I did not say poor man he cannot afford to give me that I saw him rich and prosperous with his supply pouring in it Was this thought which brought it if one had been a bad receiver he must become a good one and

take even a postage stamp if it has given him and open up his channels for receiving the Lord loveth a cheerful receiver as well as a cheerful Giver I've often been asked why one man is born rich healthy and another poor and sick where there is an effect there is always a cause there is no such thing as chance the question is answered through the law of reincarnation man Goes through many births and deaths until he knows the truth which sets him free he is drawn back to the earth plane through unsatisfied desire to pay

his karmic debts or to fulfill his destiny the man born rich and healthy has had pictures in his subconscious mind in his past life of health and riches and the poor and sick man of disease and poverty man manifests on any plane the sum total of his subconscious beliefs however birth and death are man-made laws for The wages of sin is death the Adamic fall in consciousness through the belief in two powers the real men spiritual man is birthless and deathless he never was born and has never died and he was in the beginning he

is now and ever shall be so through the truth man is set free from the law of karma sin and death and manifests the man made in His image and likeness man's freedom comes through the fulfilling his destiny bringing into manifestation the Divine Design of his Life his Lord will say unto him well done thou good and faithful servant thou has been faithful over a few things I will make thee ruler over many things death itself enter thou into the joy of thy Lord eternal life this ends chapter 9 chapter 10 denials and affirmations thou

shalt the Korea thing and it shall be established unto thee all the good that is to be made manifest in man's life is already an accomplished fact and divine Mind and is released through man's recognition or spoken word so he must be careful to decree that only the divine idea be made manifest for often he decrees through his idle words failure or misfortune it is therefore of the utmost importance the word once demands correctly as stated in a previous chapter if one desires a home friend position or any other good thing make the demand for

the divine selection for example infinite spirit open the way for My right home my right friend my right position I give thanks it now manifests under grace in a perfect way the latter part of the statement is most important for example I know a woman who demanded a thousand dollars her daughter was injured and they received a thousand dollars indemnity so it did not come in a perfect way the demand should have been worded in this way infinite spirit I give thanks that the one thousand dollars which is mine by divine right is Now released

and reaches me under grace in a perfect way as one grows in a financial consciousness he should demand that the enormous sums of money which are his by divine right reach him under grace in perfect ways it is impossible for men to release more than he thinks is possible for one is bound by the limited expectancies of the subconscious he must enlarge his expectancies in order to receive in a larger way man so often limits himself in his demands for Example a student made the demand for six hundred dollars by a certain date he did

not receive it but heard afterwards that he came very near receiving a thousand dollars but he was given just six hundred as the result of his spoken word they limited the Holy One of Israel wealth as a matter of consciousness the French have a legend giving an example of this a poor man was walking along a road when he met a traveler who stopped him and said my Good friend I see your poor take this gold nugget sell it and you will be rich all your days the man was overjoyed at his good fortune and

took the Nugget home he immediately found work and became so prosperous that he did not saw the Nugget years passed and he became a very rich man one day he met a poor man on the road he stopped him and said my good friend I will give you this gold nugget which if you sell will make you rich for life the mendicant took the Nugget had it valued and found it was only brass so we see the first man became rich through feeling rich thinking the Nugget was gold every man has within himself a gold

nugget it is his consciousness of gold of opulence which brings riches into his life and making his demands man begins at his journey's end that is he declares he has already received before ye call I shall answer continually affirming establishes the belief in the subconscious it would Not be necessary to make an affirmation more than once if one had perfect faith one should not plead or supplicate but give thanks repeatedly that he has received the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose this rejoicing which is yet in the desert state of consciousness opens the

way for release the Lord's Prayer is in the form of command and demand give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors and Ends in praise for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever amen concerning the works of my hand command II me so prayer is command and demand praise and thanksgiving the students work is in making himself believe that with God all things are possible this is easy enough to state in the abstract but a little more difficult when confronted with a problem

for example it was necessary for a woman to demonstrate a large sum of money within a state of Time she knew she must do something to get a realization for realization is manifestation and she demanded a lead she was walking through a department store when she saw a very beautiful pink enamel paper cutter she felt the pull towards it a thought came I haven't a paper cutter good enough to open letters containing large checks so she bought the paper cutter which the reasoning mine would have called an extravagance when she held it in her hand

she had a Flash of a picture of herself opening an envelope containing a large check and in a few weeks she received the money the pink paper cutter was her bridge of active faith many stories are told of the power of the subconscious when directed in faith for example a man was spending the night in a farmhouse the windows of the room had been nailed down and in the middle of the night he felt suffocated and made his way in the dark to the window he Could not open it so he smashed the pane with

his fist during droughts a fine fresh air and had a wonderful night's sleep the next morning he found he'd smashed the glass of a bookcase and the window had remained closed during the whole night he had supplied himself with oxygen simply by his thought of oxygen when a student starts out to demonstrate he should never turn back let not that man who wavers think that he shall receive anything of the Lord a black Student once made this wonderful statement when I asked the father for anything I put my foot down and I say father I'll

take nothing less than I've asked for but more so man should never compromise having done it all stand this is sometimes the most difficult time of demonstrating the temptation comes to give up to turn back to compromise he also serves only who stands and wait demonstration often comes at the Eleventh hour because man then lets go that is stops reasoning and infinite intelligence has a chance to work man's dreary desires are answer Dulli and his impatient desires long delayed or violently fulfilled for example a woman asked me why it was she was constantly losing or

breaking her glasses we found she often said to herself and others with vexation I wish I could get rid of my glasses so her impatient desire was violently fulfilled What she should have demanded was perfect eyesight but what she registered in the subconscious was simply the impatient desire to be rid of her glasses so they were continually being broken or lost to attitudes of mine cause loss depreciation as in the case of the woman who did not appreciate her husband or fear of loss which makes a picture of loss in the subconscious when a student

is able to let go of his problem cast his burden he will have Instantaneous manifestation for example a woman was out during a very stormy day and her and brother was blown inside out she was about to make a call on some people whom she had never met and she did not wish to make her first appearance with a dilapidated umbrella she could not throw it away as it did not belong to her so in desperation she exclaimed oh god you take charge of this umbrella I don't know what to do a moment later a

voice behind her said Lady do you want your umbrella mended there stood an umbrella mender she replied indeed I do a man mended the umbrella while she went into the house to pay her call and when she returned she had a good umbrella so there's always an umbrella mender at hand on man's pathway when one puts the umbrella or situation in God's hand one should always follow a denial with an affirmation for example I was called on the phone late one night to treat a man Whom I had never seen he was apparently very ill

I made this statement I deny this appearance of disease it is unreal therefore cannot register in his consciousness this man is a perfect idea in divine mind pure substance expressing perfection there is no time or space in divine mind therefore the word reaches instantly its destination and does not return void I've treated patients in Europe and I found that the result was Instantaneous I'm asked so often the difference between visualizing and visioning visualizing is a mental process governed by the reasoning or conscious mind visioning is a spiritual process governed by intuition or the super conscious

mind the student should train his mind to receive these flashes of inspiration and work out the divine pictures through definite leads when a man can say I desire only that which God desires for me his new set of blueprints It's given him by the master architect the God within God's plan for each man transcends the limitation of the reasoning mind and is always the square of life containing health wealth love and perfect self-expression many a man is building for himself in imagination abang Guillou when he should be building a palace if a student tries to

force a demonstration through the reasoning mind he brings it to a standstill I will hasten it saith the Lord he should act Only through intuition or definite leads rest in the Lord and wait patiently Trust also in him and he will bring it to pass I've seen the law work in the most astonishing manner for example a student stated that it was necessary for her to have a hundred dollars for the following day it was a death of vital importance which had to be met I spoke the word declaring spirit was never too late and

that the supply was at hand that evening she phoned me of the Miracle she said that the thought came to her to go to her safe deposit box at the bank to examine some papers she looked over the papers and at the bottom of the box was a new $100 bill she was astounded and said she knew she had never put it there for she had gone through the paper many times it may have been a materialization as Jesus Christ materialized the loaves and fishes man will reached the stage where his word has made flesh

or materialized instantly The fields ripe with the harvest will manifest immediately as in all the miracles of Jesus Christ there is a tremendous power alone in the name Jesus Christ it stands for truth made manifest he said whatsoever ye ask the Father in my name he will give it to you the power of name raises the student into the fourth dimension where he is freed from all astral and psychic influences and he Becomes unconditioned and absolute as God himself is unconditional and absolute I've seen many healings accomplished by using the words in the name of

Jesus Christ Christ was both person and principal and the Christ within each man is his Redeemer and salvation the Christ within is his own fourth dimensional self the man made in God's image and likeness this is the self which has never felt never known sickness or sorrow was never born and Has never died it is the resurrection and the life of each man no man cometh to the Father saved by the son means that God the universal working on the place of this particular becomes the Christ in man and the Holy Ghost means God in

action so daily man is manifesting the Trinity of God Son and Holy Ghost man should make an art of thinking the master thinker is an artist and is careful to paint only the divine Designs upon the canvas of his mind and he paints these pictures with masterly strokes of power and decision having perfect faith that there is no power to Mar their perfection and that they shall manifest in his life the ideal made real all power is given man through right-thinking to bring his heaven upon his earth and this is the goal of the game

of life the simple rules are fearless faith non resistance and love may each listener be now freed From that thing which has held him in bondage through the ages standing between him and his own or her in her own and know the truth which makes him her free free to fulfill his or her destiny to bring into manifestation the Divine Design of his or her life health wealth love and perfect self-expression be transformed by the renewing of your mind denials and affirmations for Prosperity God is my unfailing supply in large sums of money come to

me quickly Under grace and part perfect ways for right conditions every plan my father in heaven has not planned shall be dissolved and dissipated and the divine idea now comes to pass for right conditions only that which is true of God is true of me and I and the father are one for faith as I am one with God I am one with my good for God is both the giver and the gift I cannot separate the giver from the gift for right conditions divine love Now dissolves and dissipates every wrong condition in my mind

body and affairs divine love is the most powerful chemical in the universe and dissolves everything which is not of itself for health divine love floods my consciousness with health and every cell in my body is filled with light for the eyesight my eyes are God's eyes I see with the eyes of spirit I see clearly the open way there are no obstacles on my pathway I see clearly the perfect Plan for guidance I am divinely sensitive to my intuitive leads and give instant obedience to thy will for the hearing my ears are God's ears I

hear with the ears of spirit I'm non-resistant and I'm willing to be led I hear glad tidings of great joy for right work I have a perfect work in a perfect way I give a perfect service for perfect pay for freedom from all bondage I cast this burden on the Christ within and I go free This ends chapter 10 and it also ends Florence Scovel shins the game of life and how to play
