Speaker 1 (00:00):
New ideas require many reiterations and restatements before they become
part of the generally accepted currency of thought. The idea
that I've been fining to get over since I started

(00:20):
back in nineteen thirty eight is still new. It comes
with a shock to anyone who hears it, even after
you've heard it for years and years and think you're
living by it. I've discovered that one is not really
living by it. He has not yet become a part

(00:40):
of their thing. And that is that imagining creates reality.
I say this because I identify imagine with God's inaction.
To me, man is all imagination, and God is man

(01:04):
and exist in us and we in him. The eternal
body of man is the imagination, and that is God himself.
If by God I mean the creator of the universe,
the maker and the master of the whole vast universe,

(01:28):
I identify that creator with the human imagination. Then man
should be more careful as to what is imagining. So
I can give lip service to the statement imagining creates reality.
And yet if I am observer in the course of
a day, if I observe what I'm imagining, I would

(01:51):
find a numbered moments in my life in one twenty
four hours or other awaking eighteen, where I am imagining
things I do not wish to experience. If I really
believe that imagining creates reality, I would be more fearful,

(02:13):
more concerned about what I'm imagining. So I will give
it lip service and say imagining creates reality, and go
blindly on imagining anything other than what I want to create,
beginning with the morning paper and reacting to things if
you do not know, rather than be true, there could

(02:34):
be plenty by some press agent, prected by some lobbyists
you do not know. And here we react as we read,
and then we go through the life in just twenty
four hours and find that most of the twenty four
hours we spend imagining what we do not wish to experience.

(02:58):
If men would only look upon the world as a
world of a pimps, behind which the reality of imagining lay,
he would find the truth. He would find God. As
it was a story told in the seventeen chapter of
the Book of Acts. Now it's a story. Whether it

(03:22):
was historically true or not, it doesn't really matter. He's
trying to push a point to the foe. It is
saying that the men of Athens spent all day in
the marketplace looking for a new idea, either killing one

(03:42):
or hearing one. Then came upon the scene one called Paul,
and they wondered, what has this babbler to say? What
is his new idea? And he told them the idea
of Jesus and the Resurrection. And we are told. The
Epicureans and the Stoic philosophers mocked them and scoffed at him.

(04:08):
Others say, we will hear more about this later. And
he said to them, and this is all ironical if
you read it carefully, He said, O men of Athens,
I see in every way you are very religious. For
as I passed by, I observe the objects of your worship.

(04:32):
But right away that's irony, the objects of their worship.
When he said, I noticed this inscription over an order
to an unknown god, what to theirforre worship? Unknown? I
declare to you when he tells them of the only God,

(04:57):
the God that created everything. And he is not a
god afar off. He is in dwelling, He is within
every single being in the world, the God of the universe,
not made with hands. You won't find him in a
temple in a church, in a cathedral, or the little

(05:18):
objects of your worship, if you make up man with
your own hands, and then worship him and call him Apollo.
But here the God that I speak of is within everyone.
That's the God of whom I speak That's the God
that raises from the day. Well they left and their

(05:40):
mocked when we are told you went on from Athens
to current what he performed there. No one knows why
the Athens ever took him up, because there was a
wise man. They were called the very learning men of
the day. We happened today tour this cough. But anything
that is not part of their great, voluminous words. But

(06:04):
I am telling you, if, as Paul said to the Opinions,
if you would only feel after him, you'll find him.
If you would feel after him, you would find him.
Find what find the God of the universe. For he
gave us not the spirit of the world, but the

(06:27):
spirit of himself. That spirit of himself in man is
man's own wonderful human imagination. Whom you say I am.
That's God, the one in only God, and there is
no other God. Therefore he is in every man, every woman,

(06:48):
every child, God of woman. It is the God in
that being, that allows that being to breathe, to live,
to experience what we call life in this world. That
is the immortal youth. So the eternal body of man
is the imagination, and that is God himself, the one

(07:11):
we speak of in the New Testament as Jesus. That
is God. Or where is it something on the outside. No,
he is in you. When you say I am, that's Jesus.
Now the world is thought differently. Therefore it comes as
a shock when they hear it. They don't want to
hear it. They will listen if they could simply improve

(07:34):
their life in this world, get more money, do things
that they want to do, and still hold on to
this little object on the outside. So he spoke, I
observe the objects of your worship. Or man does that
with what they call Jesus. They take different human hands
that make a mold of something they call it Jesus.

(07:56):
Put it on a piece of wood, or put it
on some something else, stick it on the wall, and
then cross themselves for good love. There is the object
of their worship, something that made themselves. The maker is
greater than the thing made, no matter how wonderful it's made.
Certainly the artist is greater than his work. And so

(08:19):
we make all these things and put it on the outside,
and then vow before it in worship. I treg you
your own wonderful human imagination is God. That's God. Now,
if I would only observe this and keep it in mind,
I should be able to put Paul to the kist.

(08:39):
He said, feel after him and you'll find them. Gregg said,
the imagination is spiritual sensation. Spiritual sensation. But how would
I feel after him and fighting? Well, first of all,
he does all things good, bad or different, and he

(09:01):
waits on me just as indifferently, and as with me
when the willing me is evil. Husband, it is good
because he is a creative power. He kills, he makes
the life, he wounds, he heals. All things are done
by the one creative power. There is another God who

(09:23):
is evil, and one that is good, one that is
altogether loving, and one that is altogether hating. No only
one power, and that power is the human imagination. So
how will I then feel after him? What would the
feeling be like? It were true, but true, that I

(09:46):
am the man that I would like to be, What
would the feeling be like? Yeste, for all things are
made by Him, and without him was not anything made.
It was made. If I am dare to assume that
I am now the man that I want to be,
and I persist in that assumption, waking my mind morning,

(10:09):
noon and night. For anything that I find myself dwelling
upon that is in conflict with that assumption, I ignore it.
I put it aside. I will be faithful to this
divine vision, the vision of myself. So anytime I catch
myself whearing to feel less than the thing that I'm
feeling on trying to externalize in my world, I simply

(10:32):
stop it and go back to that assumption. If I
am the man that I want to be, if I
persist in it, and it becomes a fact that I
found him, I don't observe a vaginine as I do
objects in space. I am the reality that is called imagining.

(10:53):
So you don't see God because God is spirit, but
you see the result of His activity in you. He
is active in you as you imagine. You're completely free
to imagine good, bad, or indifference. So you simply select
what you want to imagine would you like to be?

(11:14):
And you name it? But you said that I don't
have the background for it. I do not have any
the qualifications for it. It doesn't really matter. Imagining creates reality.
You do not need the qualifications that the world thinks
you need. All you need do is can be to
boldly assume that you are the man the woman that

(11:35):
you would like to be. And if it proves itself
in performance, then you from them. So Paul's active openien
feel after him and you'll find them. But I have
seen it numberless times in my thirty four years of teaching.
I started back in February of nineteen thirty eight, and

(11:59):
here I am February of nineteen seventy two, and I'm
ready to see it fail. If we the optron power
applied for it doesn't apply itself. We are the apron
power for in man is God, and God is man's
own wonderful human imagination. So if I dare to assume

(12:20):
that I am the one that I would like to be,
but that's God who is doing it. So how will
I turn down to God tonight? Say a half dozen
people asked of me tonight. It takes no time. Great
voice there requests. It's a statement made in the Book

(12:41):
of John the Epistle of John. If we know that
he hears us in whatever we ask of him, we
know that we have already obtained the request made powerful. Well,

(13:02):
when they're talking to me, they say I would like
so and so instantly it comes within the frame of
my golden room. Is something I would like myself if
I were in their present state of consciousness. I would
like that. He doesn't violate my rule. He doesn't injure someone,
It doesn't take from anyone. Well, now did I hear it?

(13:25):
I heard it. Well, if I and my father are one,
but then my father heard it, I do not know
the means that will be employed to bring it to pass.
But I can't deny that I heard it. If I
heard it and I and my father are one, or
can I not thou say to my inner being, thank
you father, you heard it, but I heard it. What

(13:46):
if we know that he hears all that we ask
of him, then we know we have already obtained the
request made of him, so as to say to me,
I would like so and self, and then I heard it.
I do not know, Asavain called Neville, how it's going
to happen. I do not know. I am not going

(14:06):
to suggest what they do or what they should do.
I only know that I heard it, and if I
heard it, my father heard it, because he and I
are one. He is my own wonderful human imagination. So
I could actually say, within myself, as though we were too,
thank you you heard it if I heard it, and
then allow the depth of my own being to devise

(14:29):
the means necessary to bring it to pass. And then
I am not responsible. From that moment on. I do
not call up and say did it happen? I do
not get in touch with him and write them and
say tell me what's how? Is Harting's coming? Is not
my concern. I did what was asked help me, And

(14:49):
all I was asked to THEE was to hear use
my imagination lovingly on their behalf. Well, I did it
in the trinket of an eye. You'll have been going
to some sweat to do it. I don't have to
go to some church and do it, go to some
synagogue and do it, or some so called holy place.
Wherever I stand should be holy, because the Father is

(15:12):
within me. And where can you go to a more
holy place than where God is? But if I know
God is my own wonderful human imagination. Then where can
I go that could be more holy than wherever I am,
no matter where it is. So the request is made.
I heard it, and then having heard it, I give

(15:33):
thanks to the being within me who has the means,
the wisdom, and the power to externalize it. Knowing that
the entire outside world, that all objective reality is solely
produced through imagining. What is now proven in the world
was one's only imagine. Try to deny that, Try to

(15:57):
deny it. There is no thing in this world that
you can say that's real that was not first only imagined.
So I say to everyone there, take stay, feel after him,
and you'll find him. He didn't say you may find him.
Feel after him and you'll find him. But these ideas

(16:19):
are so new, and yet they aren't you. They go
back into the Old Testament. Here you find the word
for imagination used as the word potter. Well, if you
say the word poper, go down to the Potter's house
and I'll let you hear my word. So I went
down to the potter's house, and there he was working
at his wigel, and the vessel in his hand was spoiled,

(16:43):
so he reworked it into another vessel as it seemed
good to the poper to do. If you read it
in the form of the story in which it is
told in the eighteen chapter of Jeremiah, you will think
of a man who played his hands at his wiel,
pumping away, making a vessel, making some kind of a well,

(17:03):
could be anything, a plate, that's not it. The word
potter means imagination. It's like saying to you, go into
your own imagination and see what you're doing with a friend.
You just heard that he was in need. Are you
now going to finish that I'm taking now into a
greater need? Or are you going to rework it into

(17:24):
another vessel as it seemed good to you to do.
If you don't go to some pother's house, roll down
to the father's house, I'm there. I will let you
hear my word. So I went down to the father's house,
and there he was working at his wheel, and the
vessel in his hand was spoiled. He didn't throw it

(17:44):
away and discard it. He reworked it into another vessel,
as it seemed good to him to do. So a
man friend of our, he's unemployed, all right, So he's unemployed,
and he doesn't have a qualification for a better job,
and there is no job at the moment for what
he has. So what I will be working, I will

(18:06):
hear him tell me that he has the most marvelous
job and he's gainfully employed. What the job is I
do not know. But I can't say to myself, well
if I heard it, showing the depth of my own being,
and so I can say thank you, having reworked him
in my own mind's eye into an entirely different being,

(18:27):
the same frame, but not one unemployed is now gainfully employment.
So feel it, if I can feel this stake, I'm
finding God. For God is spirit I mean, I tell you,
and by spirit, I do not mean some intangible thing.
It actually is the human form divine. But I speak

(18:51):
of the human imagination. It is a form, it's a reality.
It is the divine form. So the eternal body of
man is the hue human imagination. And that is God himself.
And there is no other God. He said, I killed,
and I make alive, I wound and ideal. I do

(19:13):
all things, and none can deliver out of my hands
this description. But man, when he hears the word God,
he thinks of something else in space. Well, he doesn't
quite know. But something in space. If there were God
in any way undus within you, something that is other

(19:34):
than your own wonderful human imagination, You've got the wrong God.
If there word Jesus causes you to think of a
man who lived two thousand years ago and died two
thousand years ago and rose two thousand years ago, you
got the wrong one. You're told Jesus is within you.

(19:55):
Tyf it's within me. I should find it exactly where
he is in me? And then who but I have
found him. He is my own wonderful human imagination. That's Jesus,
and all that is said of him. Every child born
of woman is going to experience to discover he is Jesus.
And there is no other Jesus. So you're told in

(20:18):
scripture in the seventeenth of Matthew. In the end there
is Jesus only, why you're told now in the Book
of John a sill of job. And when he appears,
we shall be like him, because when he appears and
only Jesus, the life have to be like him. So

(20:40):
within me the whole thing unfolds itself, and everything said
of him, at least whether people believe it or not.
I have experienced, and personally I do not care whether
they accept it or not any more than Paul did.
The wise Man, the Epicurians, and the Stoics, the cough
at him and then left at him and mocked him.

(21:02):
So he went down to college. He simply did the
work he came to do. So he told the story
and said, you are worshipam what something on the outside.
I'm here. You put an inscription over the altar to
an unknown god. You say the unknown what you know? Say?
If unknown? I will tell you have a known God.
Now take my word for it and figure it out

(21:24):
for him, and you'll find him. How would I fight
but the night? If I wanted to be in New
York and I put my body down nder the bed tonight,
when I go to bed, I must assume that I
am already in New York. Well, how would I know
that I am there? If I'm all imagination, I must

(21:46):
be wherever I am in imagination. But if I am
in imagination in New York. Now think of the world.
Think to California, southern California. Where you face the body
or do you see it on the bed as you're
thinking well, then you're not in New York. Can you
see it three thousand miles away to the rest of you, Well,

(22:10):
then you are in New York. For were you in
New York, you would see the body in your mind's
eye three thousand miles away in Los Angeles, and you'll
be thinking from New York rather than thinking out of
the York. So the whole thing is simply finding out
this fantastic power, creative power in man and how it operates.

(22:34):
For there is no problem in the world comparable to
this problem of solving the mystery of imagine. For supreme
power and supreme wisdom and supreme delight is in store
for the one who conquers this mystery. So whether you
be in jail, all right, So you're in jail, and

(22:56):
you dare to assume that you're free. You aren't going
to break through the doors and be picked up, and
he sank to a longer term. We simply assume that
you are free. Who to day on death row, many
of them prayed that their sons would not be put
in the chamber, and they believed their prayers, And so

(23:20):
the Supreme Court brings in a verdict no more killing
of men because they kill someone. Whether you approve or disapprove,
that's not the point. All things are possible in God's
worth all things, So I am not going to pass
any opinion whether this thing is right or wrong. I'm

(23:41):
not going to be involved emotional as to whether they
did the right thing or the wrong thing. I only
know from personal sprint. If I had a son there,
I want him free. If he were there, he is
not there, But if he were there, I want him
free regardless of what he did. As one who loves

(24:04):
his son, I want him breath. But I am not
going to pass any opinion or any judgment concerning the
Supreme Court's decision. The thing is, all things are possible.
You will tell me what you want and if it
comes within the framework of what I call the Golden rule,
which is simply doing unto others as you would have

(24:25):
an other do unto you. If it fits that frame,
well then you are on the right course. For then
you can't do it physically, No, you do not have
the power or the wisdom to do it. But there's
something in you which is your essential being. It can
do it. It knows exactly how to do it. Can

(24:45):
you trust them can you trust this being within you
to have heard what you heard? I heard it on
this level, will request made? And if I heard it
on this levil certainly the breadth of my own being
heard it, and on that yet he has ways and
means I do not have on this level. Therefore, I'm
not concerned as to how it's going to work. I

(25:07):
only know it will work by simply assuming that I
am already the one I want to be. If I
dare to assume it and remain faithful to it, then
it becomes a fact. So imagine. Plus this kind of
faith faith in God, and God is your own wonderful
human imagination. So faith in God is the way to success.

(25:33):
You will imagine it as though it were true, and
then you walk your way, not knowing how it's going
to become true. But it will become true. Why invite
you to test it this try? It cost you nothing.
And if I take from you your gods has paltered

(25:53):
from their feelians their gods, then it's a blessing. If
you can lose your God, a good thing, because the
real God you can't lose, and you can never lose me.
You can never lose the sense of I am. You
can lose everything else, but you can never cease to
be aware that you are that start. And so if

(26:15):
I can't take that com you, but then I can
take the real God from you. If I can take
any other thing from you and you worship it, you
have the false start. And I did your service in
taking anything but the reality, because I can't take the
reality from you, So all out of services and ceremonies
will mean nothing. Nothing. Go about your father's business, which

(26:40):
is yourself doing noble things in this world, imagining the best,
and the will found the best. That's why I say.
If it seems I reiterate, and we stayed night after
night after night. It's essential because if you're perfectly honest
with yourself this day, and you observe what you were

(27:02):
imagining in the course of one day, you'd be ashamed
of what you imagine. And yet you are imagining things
you do not want to happen, and yet you will
give lip service to the statement imagining creates reality. And
then one moment later, a friend of mine up in
San Francisco. She was a friend of a mutual friend,

(27:25):
and they didn't get on very well, only at moments.
One night riding with her. We went down or maybe
seventy five miles down the peninsula for a dinner, lovely dinner,
and all the way back, this very very heavy fault
could hardly see a few yards before you. And she
was talking of this friend of mine, who she claimed

(27:45):
to be a friend of hers, and she would rant
against this woman so and so on. So why wouldn't
even print it. You couldn't print it. It burned the page.
And then at the end of her statement, she was saying,
God bless her soul. She set up the entire seventy
five miles lasting this woman, and then she would qualify

(28:06):
the whole thing and is all forgiven, God bless her soul.
So she is still here. That one has gone from
this little section of time, and she's still playing the
same part, using her imagination in every where. She doesn't
move want in this world. And things went from bad
to worse in her world, and we're still that way.

(28:29):
And she can't for one moment believe she is the
cause of the phenomena of her life. Oh no, she
can't for one moment. And yet I had one long
seventy five mile drive, for it would take a whole
lifetime to read that harvest what she said in that
long drive from dinner back home. So man has a

(28:51):
very weak memory and he doesn't remember what he did
these things. But there's a depth in man who does
not forget. We are worn in relations. Be not the seed.
God is not marked as a man soul, So shall
he reap when we are told by the poet you
see yonder fields. The sessimum was sessimon, and the corn

(29:16):
was corn. The darkness and the silence knew, and so
is a man's faith born. So you don't recognize your
own harvest, but it couldn't make a mistake. Everything is
after the identical seed. You plan the seed, what seed
was I If I've forgotten what it was, we wait

(29:36):
till the tree comes up. You'll know because it can't
be other than what was planted. If I plant an oak,
well then the ok is going to spring up into
the oak tree. I plant that sort of an acorn,
that's going to be the oak tree. But if I
thank something else, well, then wait. If I've forgotten what
I plan to wait, the harvest will show me and

(29:58):
then denies his own. So I'm telling you that your
own wonderful human imagination is God, is the God of scripture,
befoundly God. Whether in the Old Testament you call him
the Lord, or call him Jehovah, or call him God,
or in the New Testament you call him Jesus, it's
the same thing. This is the creative power in man,

(30:23):
and that creative power in man is man's own wonderful
human imagination. Why repeat unnumbered stories that I've told you
in the past. I could start with new ones, But
what you know the technique, and the technique is simple.
If all things are created out of man's human imagination,

(30:44):
call then that you start imaginally what he wants to be.
If he does successful, follow him. But in the meanwhile,
try to prove the plant. Because when you hear for
the first time that your imagination is God, it's an
awful shock. Because, as the poet said, behowl this vine.

(31:05):
I have found it a wild tree whose wanton strength
had swallen into irregular twigs. But I've prone the plant,
and then it grew temperate in its brain expense of
useless leaves, and not it as you see, into these
keen full flusters to repay the hand with wise de wounded.

(31:31):
So when you first find that the vine spoken of
in the Bible, I am the vine oviternity. I am
the true vine, and my father is the vine dresser.
And you discover what that vine is my imagination for
during the whole thing, when into leaves, useless leaves and branches,
it was not producing grapes that I thought to prone

(31:53):
the tree by observing what I am imagining, in the
course of twenty four hours becomes a habit rain. The
next day I do a little bit better, the third
day better still. By the end of a week, I
made the habit now of walking water imagining, and don't
rap instantly put it, stop it, stop imagining, don't indulge yourself.

(32:17):
I have heard people say to day, but just one
more second. It's such a pleasant thing to carry him off,
And so it is mine dying. He is telling off
somebody all in his imagination, knowing he's going to reap
the fruit of him. Now, if you know that you
aren't wors going to be spent a next to five
seconds of precious time in finishing that emotion, stop that

(32:40):
emotion and get on a new train. And then that
you prove the plant, and finally that fans will reward
you with feel food fu justice because you wisely wounded it.
Then you keep that viying going, and the buying will
pay enormous diffidence. I know from experience. When you go

(33:01):
to bed at night, let your last thought be something noble,
something wonderful. If you are now of those you love,
are now what you would like to be, and drop
off into the deep in that state, I'll make it
a happit, as we tell you can't a seed, and
then the seed becomes an act, and the act becomes

(33:23):
a habit, and the habit becomes a character. So if
I seem to repeat myself, it's because I have to
be so. If anyone here, then I could honestly tell
me that in the course of twenty four hours they
have observed what they were imagining and had not a

(33:44):
thing to find. Faces. Well, I would like to hear that.
And I will not tell you a liar, because I'm
not here to judge. But it would be modest thing
if you could tell me that. But I know that
all of us are victims, and we get into the
habit of this internal conversations that are not pleasant, and

(34:06):
we think that no one observes, no one sees. So,
as we are told in the book of Ezekiel, we should,
son of men, go down and see what the elders
of the House of Israel are doing. So I went
down to the house to observe the elders of the
House of Israel, and where they were, each in his
own room, carving on the wall. What war the wall

(34:29):
of your own interior? The wall is skulved, and they
are making abominable things. And they say, whether no one
sees this, the Lord has forgotten us. I thought, because
they did it in the silence that no one knows,
when the only reality is their own wonderful human imagination,
and that is fully aware of what man is doing,

(34:51):
and rewards men good, bad or indifferent with his imaginal act.
No one can tell me that you couldn't not the
night star to become if you want to be prosperous.
That's that repative term. What you mean by prostus would
not be what another means by it, but what you
And just make yourself what would it be like if

(35:15):
he were true? Just what would it be like? And
then go about to the business feeling as though it
is true. He said, of spending your precious time reading
about Howard Hughes. Who cares? I asked a friend of
mine who asked, if I'm following the story? I said,
you know, he doesn't know me, and I don't know him,

(35:39):
and I'm quite sure that if I meant him, he
will not really buy me a sandwich. So what am
I concerned about? He doesn't say by a ring, He
doesn't buy my clothes, He doesn't contribute to my way
of living, and I am supposed to be concerned about
what he's doing. He doesn't interest me none whatsoever. I

(36:00):
must spend my precious time reading about how it views.
My heart almost goes out to the man Irving who
wrote the thing, because the so called wise evidence of
life and the wise ones of the other one got taken,
and they are so wise taking for a half million dollars.
And so I'm not saying that I would want it

(36:21):
duplicated in my life, but it almost serves them life
to pull that upon the people. And sooy who cares
about Hugh? Is? Really? What is his contribution to life?
So he has made two brilliants. So what hasn't bought
your dinner hasn't done anything for you? And so what

(36:42):
is your concern. Will take the story of scripture, see
it as it really was intended in the beginning to
be seen that your own wonderful human imagination is that
God's spoken of inscription, and by him all things were made,
and without him was not anything made that is made.

(37:03):
Start writing. In this room, you're wearing clothes wearing, you're
sitting on chairs, You're in a house. Everything here is
first only imagine, because you're wearing the chairs in which
you are seated. The buildings, now houses do Everything here
was first only imagined, and then it became an objective fact.
So objective reality is solely produced through imaginative Now you

(37:28):
want to objectify something entirely different from what you have
so far, well, now change the imaginal act to attempt
to change circumstances. Before I change, the imaginal activity is
the struggle against the very nature of things. I can't
do it because my imaginal activity is producing the objective realities.

(37:50):
And I can't change that objective effect until I change
what is causing it. And the cause is an unseen
imaginal activity. As we are told, he brings things that
are not seen and call them as though there were seen,
and they become seen. Things that are now seen were
made out of things that do not affair. That's what

(38:12):
we are told in the Book of Hebrews. What you
now see he was made out of things that do
not affair. Well. If that is a fact, and scriptures
had it hell for centuries and centuries aspect, well, then
put it to the test. Challenge, yes, challenge the scripture,
as you're thought in scriptures are challenging. Do you not

(38:33):
realize that Jesus Christ is England. Examine yourselves and see
whether you're holding to the faith. Well, test him, test
him and see if he is in me and he
does all things. I'm going to test him. Will I
have tested him over and over and over. I coomed
him faithful. I dared, at moments in my life to

(38:57):
assume that I had what reasons told me I did not,
and my senses denied it. But I dared to assume
that I had it, and it happened. It came out
of the nowhere, it happened. So I talked that principle
to others. They applied it and it happened. But strangely enough,
after someone becomes a little bit better off than their were,

(39:21):
their reflect upon it, and because it always happens in
a perfectly normal, natural manner, they say, oh, but it
would have happened anyway, and then they go thunder sleep again.
You could give someone of austerity you tried awakening for
a moment. They are alert, seemingly alert while you're talking

(39:42):
to them, some to sleep again. That's humanity. Will bring
me this dream of life, and you'll see the fruit
of what they've imagined, and deny that their imagination produced me.
So they go sun to sleep again, back upon the
negative state. But I'm asking you who come here and

(40:02):
persist in coming, to observe what you are doing in
the course of twenty four hours. You're not alert twenty
four hours, but take say sixteen hours. If you give
eight hours to sleep, will take sixteen hours, and try
to observe what you are imagine. And if you perchance
you catch yourself imagine what you do not wish to experience,

(40:23):
stop it. Stop it right there and then, and don't
give it a nextra second. Son, maybe you're in the
midst of an emotion and you like to complete the
emotion and tell him off completely. Don't stop it, break it,
And that causes a sort of a mental well, a
mental abortion, a mental miscarriage, if you break it without

(40:47):
exploding the emotion. So feel after him and you'll find it.
That's what he tells the Athenians. But he pointed out
all the objects of their worship, and every object he
pointed out that something they themselves have made with her
hands and then worshiped. I can see it now as

(41:08):
a young man in the dancing world. So with a
young girl, a pretty young girl, and she had a
little figurine of what she called the Holy Mother, and
before she took the stage she would get it. The
whole thing was simply brilliant rate of her kisses, and

(41:29):
she really thought that gave her success. She kitted and
smuggled with fishes, and on the stage you would go,
and that was her little object of her worship. She
thought that really was the Holy Mother. I mean, I
tell you, without any criticism of the things, most of
these things are made by people who call themselves artists.

(41:50):
And I saw Fari move from any concept of being
an artist. The monstrous things made by the millions not
good armist at all. But she had her little one,
and sitting on top of the stayed a little dresser,
and she would smuggle with kisses and then dashed on
the stage and she danced. I went to a party once.

(42:16):
These boys. One was a priest or, he's going to
be a priest, and he quit to join the war.
The other we're all went into the army. One came
out dead, one came out with one foot missing, above
the league and an arm and this one who was
the priest or to be the priest, he came out

(42:37):
with something else. Didn't go back into the priesthood. But
they all were there. Saint Christopher medals when dived into
the pool as their home, and they attributed their recovery
or their so call coming out of the army to
Saint Christopher. That was before Saint Christopher was demoted. Demoted

(43:01):
Pope said, there was nose such of thingers in Christopher.
But now before that they attributed the entire thing to
that one with a foot missing, are missing, one death,
and one with TV and that is simply Christopher. He
didn't do a good job. But well, actually were completely
I said to my wife, I said, Darling, suppose they

(43:23):
know what I teach, Suppose they have heard what I would?
They have me here? Oh? She has certainly that have
you here, because as far as their concern, you aren't saved.
You couldn't be saved. You're a Protishant, so how would
you be saved? They love my father dearly, said my
wife loved you more than they love their own people.

(43:44):
But he couldn't be said because you were a Protestant. Therefore,
it doesn't really matter what you do, So don't concern
is they n that you're teaching. They wouldn't even pass
an opinion because it doesn't matter. Only what they have
been taught to believe is true, and that's the only truth. Therefore,
enjoy the day. So I did. I enjoy the day

(44:06):
and observed all this nonsense. So I'm telling you your
own wonderful human imagination is God. There is no other God.
If you think there's another God, then you've got two gods.
And you start with two, you're gonna have four, and
four's gonna give you eight and eight, sixteen, and then
you have millions of gods. There's only one God here?

(44:30):
Or is you the Lord? Our God? The Lord is one,
and that God is I Am. That's his name, forever
and forever and forever. And when you say I am.
You're asking announcing the fact that you are imagining. That
is imagination. That's God, and it's the human imagination. And

(44:55):
it is the eternal God of the Savior and the
only Savior. It is the Lord God. I am the Lord,
your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. And
besides me there is no savior. So the Jesus of
the News is the Lord, God of the old. And
where is he in man? He gave us not the

(45:17):
spirit of this world. He gave us the spirit of himself.
And that spirit of himself is in man, is man's
own wonderful human imagination.
