your State of Consciousness is always being externalized if you know how to move from your present state if you dislike it to the state that you would like to externalize then you have the secret and that is what I will attempt tonight to tell you for the only States Of Consciousness pushed out everything in this world and all are contained within the individual now in the Bible we speak of prayer and prayer to the world means begging but not in the Bible it's Thanksgiving it's pray is not petition we speak in the Bible of repentance
and the world thinks that it means to regret to be remorseful that's not what the Bible teaches prayer and repentance are almost synonymous terms we are told to bear fruit that befits repentance then they say of the central character of the scripture you and your disciples eat and drink with Sinners and he replied I have not come to call the righteous but Sinners to repentance leave the righteous alone they're so self-satisfied they're like themselves don't leave them alone the word sin has nothing to do with breaking any moral code the word sin means to miss
the mark that's what it means you have a goal in life and you haven't achieved it well then you are sinning you may have a billion dollars and still are hungry for another well then if you don't have the other you are sinning you may keep all the so-called codes of the world imposed upon you by the priesthoods of the world that would mean nothing far as the scriptures go to repent is simply a radical change of attitude that is what repentance means for if I radically change my attitude towards life I will then view
the world and see the world from that change of attitude and that change is a change of Consciousness and that change will be externalized in my world now repentance is at once man's responsibility and a gift of God let us show you what I mean by it he said I and my father are one yet I go to my father for my father is greater than I we are one yet my father is greater than I so I go to my father how do we arrive at this strange peculiar statement and how what does it
[Music] mean in the office of the sent I am not inferior to my Essential being the cender but only in the office of the saint I am restricted I must live by faith faith in what faith in the center it's myself the Father for I and my father are one but when I am sent into this world to experience death and to experience the Restriction of man I am seemingly inferior to myself the sender so when I Repent I go to the cender I first do what I have to do so I say repentance is
at once a responsibility of man and a gift from God then what is my responsibility I want to change my world for then I ask myself what would I see if it would change how would I see the world if my world was exactly as I want it to be how do I how would I see it well then see it in my mind's eye conjure a scene which would imply that it is true live as though it were true in my mind's eye I know I can't make it so but in the depth of
my own being the father he has the power to make itself so now I go to my father father how do I go to my father I first of all do what I am called upon to do I enact the scene implying the Fulfillment of my dream and then I turn it over completely in Thanksgiving to him it is myself my Essential being but it transcends my reasoning mind I do not know on this level how it can be done but I do know that if I have faith in him which is my own self
it will be done in my world so we told in scripture without faith it is impossible to please him and those who were drawn near to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seeking I must believe that he exists and that he Rewards those who seek him well without faith it is impossible to please him what is Faith the same chapter in Hebrews defines faith for us faith is the Assurance of Things Not [Music] Seen the evidence of things hoped for by faith we understand that the very worlds were created
by the word of God so that what is seen was made out of things which do not appear well in my world it hasn't yet appeared I say it all is contained within my imagination so I will enact the scene which would imply that it's real and then Within Myself I give thanks now we are told the most wonderful prayer ever uttered you find in the book Book of John the 11th chapter he stands at the Gate of death and he raised his eyes and said thank you Father that thou has heard me I knew
that you always hear me well I can't deny that the depth of my own being is hearing what I am doing what I am inwardly saying so I can truly say father thank you he certainly heard what I said well is it now supported by some statement of scripture yes again in John but now in his letter the first letter and in this he said if we believe that he hears Us in whatever we ask of him we know that we have already obtained the request made of him if if I can simply assume that
I am the man that I would like to be but certainly the depth of my own being has seen that assumption he has heard that assumption well now can I actually believe that that's all I need you well I have to confess that I can't do it on this level I am not wise enough on this level to devise the means necessary to externalize what I have assumed that I am well have you proved it unnumbered times unnumbered times when I was completely shut out on certain areas imprisoned as it were not in the federal
prisons but a state of imprisonment to find yourself on an island where you enjoyed 4 months of it almost 5 months but you have a commitment in America and you've got to get back and then to be told that there is no Poss possibility of return until the very earliest September and that will be the very earliest and your commitment is in Milwaukee in the first week of May what are you going to do then no possibility no ships are taking the passengers and the list runs into thousands waiting all through the Indies from Trinidad
all the way up all waiting and you are in the island of Barbados without making any provision for your return to America when you sail for Barbados 5 months before so what did I do I simply sat in a chair in my hotel room and I assumed I was on a little tender moving against the boat for that was before the days of deep water Harbor now we have a deep water Harbor but then you took a small boat off to the ship waiting maybe a half mile to see and then you walked up a
gang plane so I simply stepped up on the gang plane and walked up that gang plane in my mind's eye if my mind wandered which it did I brought it right back to that first step and walked up again it wandered before I got to the top I brought it back again and I trained it as you would a horse the mind is an unruly animal so I trained it and I walked up step after step when I got to the top I turned around and put my imaginary hands on the rail and I could
smell the salt of the sea in the air I look back with Nostalgia at the little island of Barbados a mixed emotion I am happy that I'm sailing for America and sad that I'm leaving behind a very large wonderful family of mine and then in that mood I simply dropped off for a moment in sleep just a little nap the next day I was called by by the very company who said that we have no possibility of getting you out of here before at the very earliest September and said there was a cancellation this day
in America and they offered it to me in spite of the list of over a thousand people waiting it's not my concern why she or he or it cancel the passage my prayer was answered I did what I was called upon to do for repentance is a radical change of attitude she said you can't get out well I said I am out I'm on a boat and the boat is headed towards New York City that's all I wanted to do so I did my responsibility and the second part of repentance is a gift from God

there were only two beds in it and my little girl was only 3 years old she could sleep with her mother and I could climb up one flight and sleep on the upper bunk and then take my 11 days back to New York City I did what I was called upon to do that's my responsibility to enact a scene which would imply the Fulfillment of my desire and then surrender completely to my father for he has the power to externalize it I do not know how to do it on this level I haven't the wisdom
I haven't anything on this level to do it so my faith is Faith in my father faith in his power to externalize what I have done all in imagination so to me that is prayer that is repentance I didn't sit down and felt for one moment that I had done something that was wrong and that's why I couldn't get out no sense of repentance like remorse as the world teaches that's not repentance repentance is simply a radical change of attitude that's what the word means metanoia but radical right down to the root and you change
your attitude if I change my attitude I've changed my state of consciousness and because all states of Consciousness are being externalized in the world then that state will externalize itself in my world in a way I do not know or we are told my ways are not your ways my ways are past finding out just trust me so without faith you cannot please God we are told if if I would come to him I must first believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him well I seek Him in projecting for me
that which I desire in this world so that's what I mean by prayer prayer is the attempted communion with God that's what prayer is as we are told in the fourth Psalm the fourth verse commune with your own heart on your beds and then be silent commune with whom I do not need the mediation of any priest any Rabbi or any Heavenly being I'm communing with myself the depth of my own being is God the father that's my Essential being and he one with the surface mind called Never And in the capacity of the office
of the saint called Neville I am inferior to myself the sender but the sender and the saint are one you and God the Father are one but on the in the office of the saint you're like an ambassador you do not speak with the same authority of the one who sent you to represent him so I represent myself in the world of death but the center is greater than I and yet I and he are one this is what I get from scripture and this is what what I put into practice this is what I
try to teach and tell everyone who will listen to me
