“Prayer that craves a
particular commodity, -- anything less than all good, -- is vicious. Prayer is
the contemplation of the facts of life from the highest point of view. It is
the soliloquy of a beholding and jubilant soul. It is the spirit of God pronouncing
his works good. But prayer as a means to effect a private end is meanness and
theft. It supposes dualism and not unity in nature and consciousness. As soon
as the man is at one with God, he will not beg. He will then see prayer in all
action. The prayer of the farmer kneeling in his field to weed it, the prayer
of the rower kneeling with the stroke of his oar, are true prayers heard
throughout nature, though for cheap ends.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
YOU are in Heaven right now as you read this.
Wherever the Life, which is your True Being takes you,
all will be well. And then there will come a time when you realize it is not I
going anywhere. It is not I doing anything, but I am fixed in the Moment, fixed
in the Now, watching my form as on a movie screen as it goes and comes and I
direct the whole thing from my extreme vantage point. There is a peace and
harmony that comes as part and parcel of the joining. This harmony will come in
all things and bring everything together into Oneness. This is trusting God!
This total and complete surrender is a forgetting in regard to separation,
because in Truth, there is none!
You will think less in theory, more in Reality, until the
balance tips and you will realize that you are speaking from a place of knowing
and confidence, that there is ONE living out through a body/form, and you are
IT, and IT is You.
“God in a Box” ~ Jane Woodward
It occurred to me this week that chi, prana, grids, strings and strands, primordial
substance, subtle energy, ectoplasm are merely ego terms to relate how everyone
in the world is connected. We a re spirit, all is mind. We can’t conceptualize
being without the body so we relate it to what ever makes sense in our personal
experience. Our own personal rules of engagement, so to speak. Did Hopkins,
Cramer, Brooks and Fillmore even know what Chi was I wonder?
Of the body, not in the body: I’ve talked to people and
suddenly been aware I was of the body, not in the body. No judgement, no
emotion, just being. If it wears off it’s a lesson in judgement, trust or
faith. Actually I don’t know for sure. There’s no guide book on God so it’s
highly individualized.

This I liked. Would I change anything of my past? No. And I wouldn’t necessarily
recommend some of the experiences. If friends don’t like what you read, well
like the song says:
Lost the friends that I needed loosing
Found others on the way.
And as always, “Be still, and know I am God”.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not seen." - Hebrews 11:1
You don’t have to rescue anyone, change anyone or
heal anyone!
John 7:33/34
"Yet a little
while am I with you and then I go unto him that sent me. Ye shall seek me and
shall not find me and where I am, thither ye cannot come."
"Yet a little
while I am with you, and then I go unto him that sent me."
"Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me,"
means that others may wonder what you are doing and be unable to follow
you in understanding or belief.
"And where I am, thither ye cannot
come."
Other members of your family, or the patient himself, may be unable to
rise in consciousness and enter into the feeling of perfect health, because
they are wrapped up in worldly beliefs.
JOSEPH MURPHY ~ New Thought Magazine~ 1959
Christ is that unseen principle in man, of which he is conscious but which he has never considered as intelligence. It is God in us, and when man arrives at that state that he can recognize an intelligence that transcends belief, then death is swallowed up in wisdom. All will acknowledge that every scientific discovery might have been known before, that is, the truth existed before we knew it. We, in like manner, have an existence as active in itself as man in his opinions, but both cannot be seen at the same time for as one dies the other rises. To put man in possession of this truth, it is necessary to destroy the entire religious belief. Jesus endeavored to do this in order to convince man that his only true living self was the science of God. He also labored to prove that the sympathy that we feel towards each other is a living being with all the attributes of intelligence and that it remains when the natural man is destroyed. This was science to him, and its truth said, "I come again," etc.
