All life is from within outward.
To learn how to meditate effectively is to acquire a valuable
ability. Through meditation we contact the Christ mind. Meditation is the great
middle ground between concentration and realization and it is necessary to both.Methods of Meditation Jennie H. Croft 1928
Carrie Moss Hawley* says: "The reason
meditation is so important is that the mind must be lifted out of its old ways
of thinking and placed in the new, and only by continuous effort can this be
accomplished. You know certain things are true. You should not think of them as
in the experimental stage. Begin to use them as known forces that will produce
certain results beyond question."

Lesson IV we have
named "Realization." Realization
is the outcome of the three exercises, relaxation, concentration, and
meditation.
Realization is purely spiritual
in its working and in its power. We begin with the physical and go through the
mental into the intellectual, where we meditate upon whatever we desire to hold
in mind, until the spirit of it becomes a part of us and continues to unfold in
realization. Realization is not temporary; it is an eternal activity. After
realization the soul becomes more and more identified with its own divinity.
The more we practice realization, or letting the reality of the subject of our
meditation take possession of us, the more we know of it and the more quickly
we find its value and observe its enlightenment of our whole being. We come to
know God, to know ourselves, and to know the relation between ourselves and
God. We advance into the realm of conscious knowledge in which we know that our
eternal Father, the source of all, is one with us in omnipresent power and
wisdom. Methods of Meditation
