will
be rich in our expression. These are not
mere words, but the deepest truth that
has ever come to the human race. Hundreds
of thousands of the most intelligent thinkers
and the most spiritual people of our day
are proving this truth. We are not dealing
with illusions but with realities; pay
no more attention to the one who ridicules
these ideas than you would to the blowing
of the wind.
In
the center of your own soul choose what
you want to become, to accomplish; keep
it to your-self. Every day in the silence
of absolute convict-ion know that it is
now done. It is just as much done, as
far you are concerned, as it
will be when you experience it in the
outer. Imagine yourself to be what you
want to be. See only that which you desire,
refuse even to think of the other. Stick
to it, never doubt. Say many times a day,
"I am that thing," realize what
this means. It means that the great Universal
power of Mind is that, and it
cannot fail.
MAN'S
RIGHT OF CHOICE
MAN
is created an individual and as such he
has the power of choice. Many people seem
to think that man should not choose, that
since he has asked the Spirit to lead
him, he need no longer act, or choose.
This is taught by many teachers but is
not consistent with our individuality.
Unless we had this privilege, this power
of choice, we would not be individuals.
What we do need to learn is that
Spirit can choose through us. But when
this happens it is an act on our part.
Even though we say, "I will not choose,"
we are still choosing, because we are
choosing not to choose.
