of it. He might have been just on the point of following desire into the very thing you desire him to do, but one sight of Duty is enough—he won’t go a step.

And you call him stubborn, contrary, bad. You are mistaken. He is only true to God. And until you become like unto him you cannot enter the kingdom of eternal youth and joy and godliness.

Practise doing as you desire, to the end that you may desire to do as you will. You cannot go far astray, for in your real essence you are the Good God, who cannot go back on himself.

Duty is a fetish of the conscious or objective mind, whose processes comprise only about five per cent of all your thinking. The other 95 per cent mind is subconscious and is true to desire.

Desire is the drawing power of 95 per cent of you; will is the drawing power of only 5 per cent of you. Then do you wonder that desire often governs you in spite of your little will to follow Duty?

Your little per cent thinker has conjured up Duty as a guide, whilst your 95 per cent mind sticks to desire. You are two-minded, at war with yourself.

Unmask Duty and you will find yourself ONE and invincible. The 5-per-cent tail will lose his job of wagging the 95-per-cent dog, and you will reach Transfiguration Mount.
