“SALUTATION,” from “SPIRITICITY,” October 1963
EACH DAY is a new beginning. We look up and give thanks to
Eternal One, the
Creator of heaven and earth, the One who gives life to all, the Author
of all being.
We salute the day with gladness; we rejoice.
As we look unto the One and keep our vision focused and fixed
upon the One, we
discover capabilities of which we were not aware. As the Self unfolds
Itself to us,
as It reveals Itself to us, we rise up, praising It and glorying in It.
This is what the
ones in the East call “upraising the self by the Self.” That Self
within is what we
know as “Christ in you, your hope of glory.”
We may touch the Father; we may be aware of the Presence of the
Father, IF WE
HAVE ACCEPTED the Son—Jesus of Nazareth.
Jesus said: “I have finished the work which Thou gavest Me to
do.” Jesus’ work
is done. We can’t do His work; it is finished. We are called upon to
make
acknowledgment of the work, that it is done.
If we make acknowledgment of the complete, perfect work of
Christ, we shall be
able to enter the Realm of completed things. There will open unto us
the hidden
possibilities of our own Self. And so we rejoice and are glad.
“TREATMENT FOR PROSPERITY,” from “SPIRITICITY,” May 1965
ALL the Power there is, is devoted to my prosperity; I am not
afraid.
ALL the Presence there is, is devoted to my welfare; I do not
doubt.
ALL the Mind there is, is devoted to my success; God is my
Provider.
I am not influenced by money considerations: I am master of
money. I do
Not perceive any power in money at all; all-Power is God.
There is no fear of money in me; there is no love of money in me.
Chasing money is pagan. I am not sordidly seeking after money,
though
money is the commonly acceptable medium of exchange.
I am free from the CURSE of work—I labor not for the “meat that
perisheth.”
There is no truth in the idea of having to work for a living.
LIFE IS. LIFE
governs the sequence of Ideas in Mind, being the eternal Law of the
soul.
Whoever is spiritually alive makes his own place. Nothing can
stop him,
And no one can gainsay or resist.
When I am working, it is the Spirit, Mind, God working. So my
work is
always successful, for it is God’s work, perfect and divine. I
acknowledge
the fact and this makes me a more ready and open channel for good.
I know what it means to “take no thought.” I do not fear poverty.
There is no reality in the poverty of the poor; there are no
poor.
I KNOW that there are no poor and oppressed; I do not
doubt the Truth.
I am not afraid of poverty; I do not practice economy; I am not
timid.
I arouse my mind from the sleep of incapacity and incompetence.
I understand the truth of universal prosperity: “joy, joy, the
glad news!”
I know the golden rule of prosperity of the Christian system and
I perceive
Its spirit—“ALL things are mine.”
I rejoice in my prosperity, for joy speeds the perception of the
truth.
I perceive that all my wants have been foreseen and provided for.
I realize that my Father knoweth what things I have need of.
I am conscious NOW of limitless abundance; all-Power brings mine
own
to me.
I am in perfect peace, which perceives that there are no
obstacles.
The truth is that Infinite Abundance is mine eternally.
I am conscious of prosperity.
PART TWO:
There is no fate or ill luck hanging over me or anyone.
I am permanently conscious of unescapable prosperity.
“Whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
Not to perceive this truth is to be a thief.
There are no thieves within me or about me; no thieves at all
exist.
The error of stealing is of two sorts: (a) stealing from
others, and (b)
stealing from one’s own self.
Both are overcome by the perception that “all things are yours.”
Patanjula taught: Abstinence from theft being confirmed,
all jewels
Approach (him who has the perception).
“When one has given up self-love and thereby the desire for
misap-
propriation, he stumbles at every step on wealth without actually
seeking it.
“The more you fly from nature, the more she will follow you; and
if
you do not care for her at all she becomes your slave.”
Moses: “But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is He
that
giveth thee power to get wealth, that He may establish His Covenant
which He sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.”
Psalm 23:1: “The Lord is my shepherd: I shall not want.”
Think of all your mental affairs as being out in a warm spring
rain.
Job 22:25: “Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defense, and
thou shalt have
Plenty of silver.”
Psalm 37:3: “Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou
dwell in
the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.”
Proverbs 8:21” “I will cause THOSE THAT LOVE ME to inherit
substance; and I will fill their treasures.”
Proverbs 10:22: “The blessing of the Lord, it makes rich,
and He
addeth no sorrow with it (or, toil addeth nothing to it).”
Increasing in spiritual riches means increase in outer
richness without
Sacrifice of principle. Be ever rich toward God and you shall not lack
In richness toward humanity.
God needs no prestige. He does not desire the applause of men.
All
There is, He is. All there is to have, He has.
This therefore is also true of man in His exact image.
To desire human prestige is to be ignorant of our divine status,
the
majesty of our spiritual being.
By these true words I perceive the complete extinction of the
notions
of having to earn a living, of seeking prestige, of having to save up,
or
of any lack.
