Speaker 1 (00:00):
That a strong imagination begets the event. Biblical faith is
essentially faith in God as savior. But this God of
(00:22):
whom the Bible speaks is your own wonderful human imagination.
Your own imagination is God, the immortal youth, that is
the divine body Jesus. Imagination is not some great essence
(00:49):
one would be led to believe. It is a person,
and that person is Jesus in you. That is your
own wonderful human imagination. It is just being in you
(01:09):
that must be raised. He is buried in now. I
took that theme from the current issue of Time magazine.
You might have read it. It's in the current issue.
The man who said it was quoting Montaigne, the great
(01:31):
French essays who lived in the sixteenth century. He doubted
his influenced the thinking of most thinkers of the world,
and he quoted it in Latin when he presented a
product that he had, And then Frans said, his fault,
which is a strong imagination, begets the event. Now, this
(01:58):
is his story. At the age of thirty six in
nineteen forty six, he inherited a business from his father.
He became president of the company. It made for the
copies of seeing. It was in Rochester, New York. It's
(02:22):
called a Halloi company. But in forty six the wall
was over and all the great orders that came into
him or to the company began to be cut back.
The government cut it done practically nothing. He had to
look around for something else, and someone suggested that he
(02:46):
look into a certain invention that came out in the
thirties but was never commercialized. It was offered to IBM
and then turned it down. Who offered a Koda. They
turned it down over to the ab Dick company, and
they turned it down. So he took it home and
(03:08):
looked it over, and to him, he thought it had
much in his favor. For the next twelve years. He
simply imagined, just imagine, because he did put money into it.
His company was making money, and what they made in
twelve years, he put all of that made in twelve years,
(03:30):
plus what he could borrow. So he invested seventy five
million dollars half of that his company in twelve years
had made, and he bore loans and issued stop in
order to get this thing moving. In nineteen sixty, twelve
years later, he brought out the first tangible evidence of
(03:56):
this machine. He took no salary in that interval. He
took stop in new salaries. He persuaded his executives to
do the same thing and just take stop as they
could live well. He and three hundred odd became multi millionaires.
(04:21):
That thing is zero today. It's one billion, seven hundred
million a year. One of the giants in our country.
One billion, seven hundred million a year. Last week he
died having lunch with Gobed the rock color and his wife,
(04:44):
and sitting at the table having lunch, he stim be collapsed.
The age of sixty one, he was chairman of the
board of trustees of his alma mater, University of Rochester,
and in that capacity he persuaded the board to put
one hundred and ninety six thousand dollars of their money
(05:05):
into his stop. In less than ten years, that one
hundred and ninety six thousand dollars was worth one hundred
and twenty million dollars. That's what it was worth last week.
One hundred and ninety six thousand became one hundred and
(05:25):
twenty millions. And when he died, he left his alma
mater twenty million dollars outright and millions more in trust.
And under his picture. If you have a copy, it's
this week it has imagined, imagined, imagined. When he made
(05:46):
the first Tels pitch for his machine, he quoted it
Latin praise of Montaigne, which translated simply means a strong
imagination to get the event. So when I'm told to
believe in God, I believe in God, but not as
(06:06):
some vague essence. I believe in God as a person.
I am a person. I do not speak of my
imagination as something on the outside that I am manipulating
that my reality. I am all imaginations. Man is all imaginations,
and God is man and exist in us, and we
(06:30):
in him. The eternal body of man is the imagination,
and that is God himself, the divine body we call
the Lord Jesus. It is very in these garments of flesh,
and the truth and full of wishings of the human
(06:53):
imagination is what everyone takes for. So here my whole
concept of life is based upon this concept of God,
not something of the outside, but that which is buried
within me, my own wonderful human imagination, that is God.
Now I can test it. I am told to come
(07:16):
in testamency. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is
in you, unless, of course, you fail to meet the tests.
Test yourselves and see if you're holding to the faith.
Do I really believe that Jesus Christ is in me?
If I believe he's in me, then find out where
(07:37):
he is. Don't just say he's in my skull, but
in some strange way find up only to locate him,
but to identify it. So I have identified him because
by him all things are made good, bad and indifference.
And if all things are made by him, I must
watch what I am doing to catch him, to find
(08:00):
out who he is that makes things in my world.
I found him to be the dreamer, the dreamer in
me that fashions the dreams. That's the being, that's God,
that being, in one twinkle of an eye in the
morning brings me from a deep, deep sleep to the
(08:24):
surface of mind by building a bridge of incidence. In
no time flass. He builds a bridge of incidence through
which or house which I travel to come to the
surface of my being. Only some majestical, magical being could
do that. Who is he is? The dreamer, the dreamer
in me, the same dreamer that day's dreams, the same
(08:47):
dreamer that took this man, Joseph Chamberlain Wilson, And he
took this little thing that was turned down by the giant.
IBM turned it down, Kodak turned it down, ab turned
it down, all giants. But he had faith in it.
But he has faith in his own imagination. That is
(09:08):
the story behind the entire articles, as you will see
it in the current issue of Time magazine. A strong
imagination beget the event. So I tell you you can
start now. It's never too late to start if you
know who God is. God is your own wonderful human imagination.
(09:32):
And you can take any goal in this world if
you're willing to be as consistent as he was. And
he took no salary, give me the start. Others would
call him plain paper meaning nothing, or I give it
to me when you can take one hundred and ninety
six thousand dollars and in less than ten years in
(09:55):
pieces of paper called stop. And that piece of paper,
the bay is worth one hundred twenty millions. Do you
know what he left when he took it? Over the years,
only in stock and he was shaman of the board.
There were three hundred whiths all the town. Mousy bouty
millionaires who believe what he said. Why ask you to
(10:20):
simply test it, testing to see if you're holding to
the place. If I use the word Jesus Christ, or
the word God, or the word Lord, or the word Jehovah,
and it convey it in any way whatsoever the stains
of some existent something outside of man, you have failed
(10:43):
the test. You have the wrong God, you have the
wrong Lord, the wrong Jesus Christ. For the Lord God
Jehovah is your imagination, and that is Jesus Christ. Now,
who is the dreamer in the Bible. His name is
be the thirty seventh chapter of Genesis when you go home.
(11:05):
It's a beautiful chapter. It begins with the history of
the family of Jacob that I was started. And then
they say it, now Jacob's name is Israel, or Jacob
wrestled successfully with the Lord, and he changed his name
from Jacob, which means the supplenist to Israel and the
word Israel. To break it down each race al it
(11:27):
is simply the man who rules as God, not like
a God, as God is God. That is now Israel
loved Joseph more than any other of his children, because
he was the son of his old age. But he
(11:48):
wasn't the last one, for Benjamin was he was the eleven.
Benjamin was the twelfth. But then he said, the son
of the old age. You can see this whole picture
now with Abraham and Isaac, the son of his old age.
It is a promised child has come. Now. Joseph's name
(12:08):
was changed to that of Joshua. Moses changed his name
from Joseph to Joshua. Well, Joshuah is the he breaks
form of the word Jesus, and Jesus being Jehovah is salvation.
That's what the root of Jesus is, which is the
root of Joshuah, God saved about is the root of
(12:31):
the words. So his name really is Joshua, which is Jesus.
So he changed the name to Joshua. He had a dream.
When he interpreted the dream, the brothers hated it. Then
he had a second which also now included a father
and mother, And when the father heard of it, the
(12:53):
father kept it to himself. Jacob kept it himself because
the son the move an eleventh starts bowed before it,
which meant the parents and the brothers would all bow
before him. As the ruler he would be the Lord.
Then you are told in the thirty seventh Song, I
(13:15):
mean thirty seventh chapters of Genesis, that as he approached
the brothers, they said, behold this dreamer. Cover. Here comes
the dreamer. And it was Joseph, and they sold him
into flavor. So you're told in the New Testament that
Jesus emptied himself and took upon himself the form of
(13:39):
a slave. That's the same story told differently. Took upon
himself the form of a slave, and became obedient unto death,
even death upon the cross. This is the cross. This
is the garment of slaves. This is the garment of forgetfulness.
And I actually became one who completely forgot who I
(14:03):
am when I assume this form of the slave. But
who assumed it? The dreamer? And who is the dreamer? Joshua?
And who is Joshua Jesus? And who is Jesus, the
Lord God Jehovah. That is your own wonderful human imagination,
that is Jesus. Now we have told all things are
(14:26):
possible to do. So when Paul speaks, now are things
that he believes. Listen to him carefully. He's writing his
final letter to Timothy. And in this letter to Timothy
he said, I know whom I have believed, not what
everyone will tell you what he believes. I believe this, that,
(14:47):
and the other. As a Christian who knows anything about
the Creed. He will say and repeat the Creed, the
apostles Creed. This is what he believes. That's what Paul says,
all theology, that's all the ceremonies of the outer world.
I know whom I have believed. It's a personnel. Now,
(15:10):
he turned to Timothy. He said, though, follow the pattern
of the true words which you have heard from me, God,
the truth which has been in trusted to you by
the Holy Spirit, who dwells within us. It dwells within me.
He is the Holy One, and he is the dream
(15:32):
of dreaming, this life of mind. He waits on me
just as indifferently and as with when the will in
me is evil, as when it is good, it doesn't
really matter. Out of him springs for good and evil.
Listen to the words in the forty pep of Isaiah.
(15:56):
I formed the light, and I create the darkness. I
make real and I create will. I am the Lord
who do all these things. Yes, out of me, all
things go good, bad or indifference, whatever I imagine. But let
(16:20):
any want to imagine anything. It's going to come out
into this world, round the bustles and project yourself on
the skin of space to bear witness to his own
creative power. Get creating it, morning, noon and night. So
watch what you are imagining, for that is God in action.
(16:40):
Is no other God. So as you imagine, so your
life is going to be. You want to be other
than what you are? You can't sign if you know
who God is, because by him all things were made,
and without him was not anything made that was made.
Now here is the secret. This tabulous world of ours
(17:04):
is nothing more than the appeasement of conger. The whole
vast world is for that purpose, to appease your hunter.
And if you know who you are, you can view
the world from any state in this world the infinite states,
and these states are purely a need to satisfy this aswer. So,
(17:29):
if I want to be other than what I am
at the moment, first of all, define what I want
to be? What would I like to be in this world?
Now begin to imagine, as if it were true I
know what I want to be? Well it if I
want to be it, pease, wanting to be it and
appropriate it, make the feeling something that is real. Now
(17:53):
suppose it were true. Begin now to imagine the thing
as if it were true. That is subjectively appropriating the
objective hope. I hope it would be true. Well, now
appropriated first subjectively, as though it is true. So I
appropriated subjectively as I appropriated subjectively. What am I appropriating?
(18:16):
I am appropriating the objective hope. That's what this man
Willson did. That's what he had in view. He wanted
to have this thing because what he had before the
war came to an end. To hold him with all
of art, he had must find something new, a new product.
And the big giants turned it down. But that didn't
(18:37):
place him that they turned it down. They had all
the money in the world to get behind it. But
he bought the rights to it. And then for twelve
years he imagined and kept tone. Never thought this he
can be persistent in the imaginal act. To change my world,
I had to change the imaginal act. Every full effect
(19:00):
in this world has an imaginable act as the cause.
It is not caused. What things round about you is
the unseen cause. The imaginable act their producers. The so
called outside causes are all delusion based upon our own
faulty memory. We can't remember when we imagine. Two people
(19:25):
can go back over twelve years and imagine and remember
when he imagined that twelve years ago, when others thought
him stupid and wasteful. As you said in this article,
it takes the use. It takes the young man to
make thee because he is naive anyway to make these decisions.
If today are sixty one, I will ask would I
(19:49):
do the same thing. I think I would have to
be psychoanalyzed. But he was only thirty six names. He
called that the young man at sixty one, he thinks
I might have to be psychoanalyzed to make that decision
to spend seventy five minutes that I didn't have for
It took twelve years to make half of that for
(20:09):
my company. And I invested all of that. That's what
I could bore and what I could raise by floating
new stocks and taking stock in loop of salary and
persuading my executives to do the same thing. And three
hundred of them became millionaires multi millionaires. Why say to
(20:32):
you tonight, if you have a goal, I'm not hearing
judgment as to what your goal is. You'll be the
judge of what is your goal. If you have a goal,
you can attain it. You can attain it by the
use of your own wonderful human imagination. For that is God.
There is no other God. Let the world speak of
(20:54):
all kinds of gods and gloves perfectly all right. They
have them, but they do not exist. There are the
little things on the wall that people make with their
hands and then worship them. These concepts of God are
not God, the true God. Don't have a concept of
It means a person, and the person is your reality.
(21:15):
And that reality that is immortal, is your own wonderful
human imagination. They cannot die. That is the immortal youth.
If you should drop now, it survives, It's restored the
life in the world just like this, but not yet awake.
There's a vast difference between awaken from this dream and
(21:37):
continue in the dreams. And you do not paint where
your senses seem to pass away as the world. So
the world comes to an aid. When my father died,
my mother died, my brother died, but they did not
cease to be where my senses cease toriticism, they will
restored the life, but not resurrected. The day will come.
(22:00):
Each will be redirected, which means that they will awaken
from the dream of life. For who is awakening imagination,
It is the Lord Jesus angels who will awake from
this dream of life. When he awakes, he is God himself.
So thinking from the end is the secret of it all.
(22:26):
Always go to the end. We are always imagining a
tape of our evidence. And the most creative thing in
us is to imagine and to believe. Are seen into existence,
as we are told in the Letters to the Romans,
and God calls things that are not seen as though
(22:47):
there were scenes, and the unseen becomes seen. That the
fourth chapter, the seventeenth verse of Rome That is the
Catholic translation. I prefer it to the Polisan translation, which
is God calls a thing that does not exist, and
the thing that does not exist comes into existence. Well,
(23:11):
that's all right, but I prefer the Catholic translation. He
calls a thing that is not seen. You do not
see with your mortal eye, the man that you want
to be not yet, but you will call it as
though it is seen. But how would you call a
thing as though it is seen? You walk in the
assumpthing that you are that man? So how would I
(23:32):
know that I am really walking as that man? Will
then think of frainds of yours who never knew this
man before, and then let them see that man. So
when they passed you by in your mind die, they
see the man that you're assuming that you are, and
they will say, I'll hull, I knew him, wain. That
would imply that you are not what they formerly knew.
(23:55):
I knew him when he didn't have a nigga. I
knew him when he lived on the other side of
the street. I knew him when let him say these things.
All that would imply you are not that that they knew.
But they know this man now, the new man. So
you dare to hold yourself with the new man. I
(24:15):
knew all as if it were true. And that's the
way to success. And shakespap. But is so beautiful it
has been taughting from the primal stake, that he which
is was wished until he worked, He which is was
(24:37):
wished until he worked. So let us become man and
remain man until man becomes God. That's the story. So
the gods become man male female may be this so
become man that is male female, and they remain in
(24:58):
man until man away man being all imaginations, and then
you will God. So tonight, take the most marvel concept
you could hold yourself all of a friend, and dare
to assume it, not only for yourself, but for the friends,
and walk in that assumption as though it were true.
(25:20):
And though at the moment your reason denies it and
your senses deny it, if you persist in it, it
will harden inter fact. This is what the Bible teaches.
But we have gone so far astray with all the
theology and all the ceremonies and all the husiasticism. That
is not religion. That's not true religion. That's not what
(25:43):
the Bible teaches. If you read you read it carefully.
So you take the story and it presents itself as history,
secular history. It's not secular history. It's the story of salvation.
If I will tell you now the history, said he
the history of the family of Jacob, and a new reason,
And how he loves Joseph more than any other of
(26:06):
his children, because he was the son of his old age,
and he made him a long and wonderful row with sleeves.
One day you'll find out why the sleeve, Why that
sleeve is severed, that the arm of the Lord may
be revealed, which means the might and the power of God.
(26:28):
These things happen after you are born. From about that
sleeve is tore away from your garment, and it's a
beautiful color, lovely color for your sold of this garment.
He made a multi colored god. But the sea that
comes off is them of beautiful baby blue. When he
tears it off, he who seems to be the absort,
(26:51):
and he severed it and then pulls it off, and
your arm is there from her to there, and then
you know the words who has believed our report? And
to whom has the arm of the law been revealed?
Then you see how literally true scripture is. It's not
just only figurative, but it is literally true. Actually, you
(27:15):
go through that experience where your sleep or he made
him a long role with sleeves your told and who
did be clothing He clothed Joseph, And Joseph's name is Joshah,
and josh is Jesus, So whose arm has been on
veils the Lord himself. Then you'll know who you are.
(27:37):
All these things add up to your knowledge of God,
and you find God not as something external to yourself.
You find him as yourself. You are the Lord, You
are God, and there is nothing in the world but God.
If you take it seriously and test it your proven
(28:00):
don't say no to it before you test it. And
if there is evidence for a thing, it doesn't really
matter how stupid it seems to be on the surface.
This there is a machine called zero, seems stupid to IBM,
and all the brilliant minds that they employ give them
populous salaries to bring new things into their company, and
(28:22):
they pass their judgment. That is not good. You go
to another firm, but millions behind them to invest codak.
That's no good. And here he calls it zero because
it's the Greek meaning dry writing, and so he named
it purposely at first of us call zerographic by writing
(28:46):
condensed zero. Now wouldn't those who now have stock in IBM,
who are the big giants in IBM, whould they're not
like to have their a few thousand cheers of zero
when it was nothing? How rapidly in twelve years that
thing grew from one hundred and ninety six thousand dollars
(29:10):
that produced one hundred and twenty It doesn't make sense,
does it? But the other facts, So the facts tell
you the face, or here are the facts. One hundred
and ninety six thousand dollars investing for his alma maters
their money, and today they have one hundred and twenty
millions out of that one hundred ninety six thousands, and
(29:31):
he hadn't made some multi millions. He needs them twenty
millions plus millions in trust because he wants to pay
back what he felt they did for him as a
graduate of the University of Rochester. And he's persuaded all
others to do the same thing for their arm matters
if they have really applied this principle of imagining. Why
(29:56):
tell you God is your own wonderful human ema the nation?
Others may tell you that he's something in the side
as the sky. I turned on the events the other
night and it was raining, all the rain coming down
on him, and he had to plug his father in law,
(30:17):
father law god of and spoke in Chinese. I can't
understand Chinese. Then he interpreted for us in English then
he plugged his books. Then he tells his best audience,
sixty five thousand out of there, plus the millions who
are looking, and I was one of them. And he
makes a big pitch for money. This cost us awful
(30:39):
lot of money, he said, So let us hear from you. Well,
he spent the first fifteen twenty minutes on plugging for money,
publicizing his father in law. The father in law takes
the mic and publicizes him. So the first twenty minutes
when he does self congratulations, then I turned it off.
I couldn't wait any longer. Right, where's the mess? What
(31:01):
methic is he going to give me? Concern? In scriptures?
And I could think of nothing but that word of ae.
George Russell, the great Irish mystic poets and painter, and
all the priests met in Dublin one year, and he
wrote his friend in America. He did, a thousand priests
(31:23):
are here for some great convention. And it has started
to reign, and said ad, and I do hope the
good Lord shows his displeasure and runs the bachison. Well,
here the reign is coming down on it, and he
is telling us how he is suffering in the rain.
(31:44):
All the others are on the shelter. But he's rough,
all right. But he's going to receive fortunes that night
for his crusade, and that is called the work of price.
And he's pointing on the outside to him. He's going
to come from someplace on the outside. He will wait
forever and never find him until he finds him within himself.
(32:05):
When he finds him, it's his son who reveals him,
and his son is David. David sends before him and
calls him father. Then he will know who the Lord
Christ Jesus is. He will know Christ who sends before him,
(32:26):
and he will know himself as the Lord Jesus, who
is the Lord God Jovah. Only then will you know it.
But now you take it and try to feel. I
hope you can actually identify yourself with the dreamer. Can
you come to some identification with this dreamer? So you
(32:50):
do not speak of something on the outside creating it,
but your own being is creating the dream, the dream
of night, and this the dream of day. For this
is just and much dreams. People ask you never what
is a vision? But this is a vision right now?
This is a vision. Oh no, I don't mean that.
I mean, when you close your eyes and you see something,
(33:12):
I said, this is the vision. This is just as
much a vision as the vision of the Knight to be.
My visions of the Knight have cubic reality, just like
this solid real. If all that world is vision. But
Blake said to his friend, who wonders, what must I
do to do what you do to see as you see?
(33:34):
He said, you only have to raise imagination to the
point of visions, and the thing is done. But said he,
the nature of visionary fens or imagination is very little known.
People do not know it. They can't be intense about
it and raise it to something just like this. It
(33:56):
is just like this. This is vision. The whole bath
world is vision, and you are the ones creating it all.
So this is the dream of life when you're awake,
and in the dream when you are asleep, and you
call that the dreams, it suggests what the dreams. And
if you catch yourself dreaming, you chance it are you
want to awake. But if you catch yourself dreaming and
(34:17):
you decide not to wake, you can control the beams
and make it come out as you want to. The
same thing here. If you know this is a dream.
You can change the nature of the dreams. And so
you can simply assume that you are what you are
like to be, and that frainds of yours are what
you are like that to be, and walk in that
assumption as though it were true. And to the degree
(34:40):
that you are faithful to that assumption, having faith in God,
who is your own wonderful human imagination, to that degree
it would externalize itself in your world. Now, that is
my story to you and to everyone who will listen
to them. I would not take back one word, or
all to one word. The whole thing has been explained
(35:03):
to me in the depth of my own beings. It's
been revealed to me. I am not specond. I'm not
trying to set up any workable philosophy of life. I
have no desire to set up a little church. We
have too many already. All the little isms run for
self help really of the individual who runs them, not
(35:25):
for the help of those who come. It's just a
personal little thing of those who set up the little organization.
But I have no desire to set up any organization.
Just to tell it to you in the hope that
your memory is good enough to retain it. Now. At
least your memory is aided by these things. There. If
you're forgotten, you can always spect the little thing and
(35:46):
play it back, and then tind to refresh your memory.
All I ask of you is don't change it. There
are those who attempt to change what I have said,
to make it confirmed to what they think I oft
have said. No, I say exactly what happened to me,
So don't try the change. I told a friend ton
a lady in San Francisco. He thought I should not
(36:10):
mention certain things. She was a strict vegetarian and a
strict tee chotre, and she ordered my script to say that,
I say a man shall be a vegetarian and a
tea chosra. Well, I've never said that. I take my
martinis every day. I don't do it six days a week,
and not on Sundays. I have no Sunday. Every day
(36:31):
is my Lord's day, so I take it on Sunday,
Saturday and Monday. But every day I have a few
martinis before my evening meal and a nice bottle of
wine for my lunch. That and little cheese is my lunch.
But a bottle of wine I thoroughly enjoy it. And
she dares to take what I said and then rub
(36:53):
it out and put in her own little concept and said,
this is what never teaches. So in you one thing,
Do not change what I am saying. If you approve
of this approved, leave it just as it is. I
am telling you who I know to be God. I
tell you over and over again, God is your own
wonderful human imagination. All things are possible to God. Therefore
(37:18):
all things are possible to your imagination. Everything you see
in this world was first only imagined. It had to
be first imagined. This there's a thing called x ROX.
This man called Carson invented it. No one child any interests,
and in the nineteen thirties he brought it out. He
(37:38):
was a physicist and he knew it would work, but
no one's children the interest. But he first had to
imagine it, and then he executed it till they would
not accept it. Then comes one with real imagination who
was awakens only thirty six years old in a business
that he inherited from his father, and he saw the
(37:59):
forte and he was willing to take all the earnings
of twelve years. That's what he could bow in loans
and what he could get in issuing new stocks. And
he put seventy five million dollars into a project because
he imagined it and believed it. He saw the reality.
If I begin to imagine now and suddenly before my
(38:21):
eyes comes the solid reality of what I'm imagining, Who
is going to tell me it isn't real. I can
show it to someone else, but to me, it's really.
I saw it. Well, then I will go all out
and sell everything I have to prove it to the world.
If I had interest in visits. My father did that
(38:42):
every morning after break with he would sit down and
what we call the Burbise chair and put his feet
out on the arms of a chair. It's a chair
made in the West Indies, and there he would still
live with his eyes partly shut. He would see that
there's he who wanted it to be. He would carry
on mental conversations with many had to meet that day
from his premises and brought them to his conclusion. And
(39:06):
that's how you work. And my brother Victor it the
same thing. It doesn't matter what things look like in
the world. You see that as he wants to see it,
and things come up and now doesn't make millions, but
millions in a little tiny place like Barbatas put him here,
he will be the z blox set up because he
(39:28):
has a vivid imagination and he knows how to use it.
But as Brake says, that the nature of visionary fancy
or imagination is very little understood. They don't understand it.
He just everything I see in my world is visions,
the free visions within the solid reality I can bring
before my mind's eye. It's just as solid as that.
(39:51):
So I don't make everything real I know for my
own experience, but I have no interest in business. I
turned it it. Actually take a business concept and bring
it to the point where I can see to be real.
But I have no desire whatsoever to go into business.
So my visions are based upon someone asking help out,
(40:15):
or the Bible bringing it out from its so called
stay and actually seeing it as something wild into my world.
And it's real. All these things are real. The Bible
is reality from beginning to aim, but it's all visions,
from Genesis to Revelation. The whole thing is vision. It's
(40:36):
not any little concept that our churches tell you about.
So I ask you to testin to put it into
essence as this. Believe in God. You believe in God.
Believe in your imagination, for that's God. So when you're
told in the fourteenth of John, you believe in God,
(40:59):
believe me. Also you tell you he and the Father
are one. He tells you later on in that same
chapter you see me, you see the Father. So you
believe in God the Father. Believe in me. All I
am your imagination. Now, believe in that. You can't go wrong.
(41:21):
Believe in the reality of your imaginal acts, and they
all become back, every one of them. And I do
hope you will start now if you haven't started. I
ask nothing of you in the way of Caesar's world,
not one thinning. But I would like confirmation in the
(41:42):
form of a letter. I love to feel that you're
getting the results. If you don't have to share with
me the fruit of this principle, I'm not asking for
that at all. I've never asked for it. I've been
doing this since nineteen thirty eight, and I've never made
an appeal for my that form or in any other
form to raise mind. I have never, and today I
(42:07):
would quit and go elsewhere before I would ask you
for one rate painting outside of the price you pay
when you come here. I have to pay for this place,
and so it has to be depraised expensive. But I
have never appealed to anyone for a penny. I started
(42:27):
on the second day of February nineteen hundred and thirty eight.
Anyone who can go back sorrying out will know I
have never once asked for one nickel. I either had
to prove it to myself or else let it fall
by the wayside. So I tell you it works. It
will not pay you, but we are the offering power.
(42:50):
It doesn't operate itself. If I know what to do,
do it. If I do not do what I know
I should do, that's sinning. I'm going to miss them all,
not anything else. If I know what it is right
to do and I don't do it. For the next thing,
so let us now go into the silence and see
(43:12):
ourselves as we would like to be seen by the
whole vast world. And when we break the silence and
go home tonight, walk in the assumption that we are
that person. Now, let us go
That a strong imagination begets the event. Biblical faith is
essentially faith in God as savior. But this God of
(00:22):
whom the Bible speaks is your own wonderful human imagination.
Your own imagination is God, the immortal youth, that is
the divine body Jesus. Imagination is not some great essence
(00:49):
one would be led to believe. It is a person,
and that person is Jesus in you. That is your
own wonderful human imagination. It is just being in you
(01:09):
that must be raised. He is buried in now. I
took that theme from the current issue of Time magazine.
You might have read it. It's in the current issue.
The man who said it was quoting Montaigne, the great
(01:31):
French essays who lived in the sixteenth century. He doubted
his influenced the thinking of most thinkers of the world,
and he quoted it in Latin when he presented a
product that he had, And then Frans said, his fault,
which is a strong imagination, begets the event. Now, this
(01:58):
is his story. At the age of thirty six in
nineteen forty six, he inherited a business from his father.
He became president of the company. It made for the
copies of seeing. It was in Rochester, New York. It's
(02:22):
called a Halloi company. But in forty six the wall
was over and all the great orders that came into
him or to the company began to be cut back.
The government cut it done practically nothing. He had to
look around for something else, and someone suggested that he
(02:46):
look into a certain invention that came out in the
thirties but was never commercialized. It was offered to IBM
and then turned it down. Who offered a Koda. They
turned it down over to the ab Dick company, and
they turned it down. So he took it home and
(03:08):
looked it over, and to him, he thought it had
much in his favor. For the next twelve years. He
simply imagined, just imagine, because he did put money into it.
His company was making money, and what they made in
twelve years, he put all of that made in twelve years,
(03:30):
plus what he could borrow. So he invested seventy five
million dollars half of that his company in twelve years
had made, and he bore loans and issued stop in
order to get this thing moving. In nineteen sixty, twelve
years later, he brought out the first tangible evidence of
(03:56):
this machine. He took no salary in that interval. He
took stop in new salaries. He persuaded his executives to
do the same thing and just take stop as they
could live well. He and three hundred odd became multi millionaires.
(04:21):
That thing is zero today. It's one billion, seven hundred
million a year. One of the giants in our country.
One billion, seven hundred million a year. Last week he
died having lunch with Gobed the rock color and his wife,
(04:44):
and sitting at the table having lunch, he stim be collapsed.
The age of sixty one, he was chairman of the
board of trustees of his alma mater, University of Rochester,
and in that capacity he persuaded the board to put
one hundred and ninety six thousand dollars of their money
(05:05):
into his stop. In less than ten years, that one
hundred and ninety six thousand dollars was worth one hundred
and twenty million dollars. That's what it was worth last week.
One hundred and ninety six thousand became one hundred and
(05:25):
twenty millions. And when he died, he left his alma
mater twenty million dollars outright and millions more in trust.
And under his picture. If you have a copy, it's
this week it has imagined, imagined, imagined. When he made
(05:46):
the first Tels pitch for his machine, he quoted it
Latin praise of Montaigne, which translated simply means a strong
imagination to get the event. So when I'm told to
believe in God, I believe in God, but not as
(06:06):
some vague essence. I believe in God as a person.
I am a person. I do not speak of my
imagination as something on the outside that I am manipulating
that my reality. I am all imaginations. Man is all imaginations,
and God is man and exist in us, and we
(06:30):
in him. The eternal body of man is the imagination,
and that is God himself, the divine body we call
the Lord Jesus. It is very in these garments of flesh,
and the truth and full of wishings of the human
(06:53):
imagination is what everyone takes for. So here my whole
concept of life is based upon this concept of God,
not something of the outside, but that which is buried
within me, my own wonderful human imagination, that is God.
Now I can test it. I am told to come
(07:16):
in testamency. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is
in you, unless, of course, you fail to meet the tests.
Test yourselves and see if you're holding to the faith.
Do I really believe that Jesus Christ is in me?
If I believe he's in me, then find out where
(07:37):
he is. Don't just say he's in my skull, but
in some strange way find up only to locate him,
but to identify it. So I have identified him because
by him all things are made good, bad and indifference.
And if all things are made by him, I must
watch what I am doing to catch him, to find
(08:00):
out who he is that makes things in my world.
I found him to be the dreamer, the dreamer in
me that fashions the dreams. That's the being, that's God,
that being, in one twinkle of an eye in the
morning brings me from a deep, deep sleep to the
(08:24):
surface of mind by building a bridge of incidence. In
no time flass. He builds a bridge of incidence through
which or house which I travel to come to the
surface of my being. Only some majestical, magical being could
do that. Who is he is? The dreamer, the dreamer
in me, the same dreamer that day's dreams, the same
(08:47):
dreamer that took this man, Joseph Chamberlain Wilson, And he
took this little thing that was turned down by the giant.
IBM turned it down, Kodak turned it down, ab turned
it down, all giants. But he had faith in it.
But he has faith in his own imagination. That is
(09:08):
the story behind the entire articles, as you will see
it in the current issue of Time magazine. A strong
imagination beget the event. So I tell you you can
start now. It's never too late to start if you
know who God is. God is your own wonderful human imagination.
(09:32):
And you can take any goal in this world if
you're willing to be as consistent as he was. And
he took no salary, give me the start. Others would
call him plain paper meaning nothing, or I give it
to me when you can take one hundred and ninety
six thousand dollars and in less than ten years in
(09:55):
pieces of paper called stop. And that piece of paper,
the bay is worth one hundred twenty millions. Do you
know what he left when he took it? Over the years,
only in stock and he was shaman of the board.
There were three hundred whiths all the town. Mousy bouty
millionaires who believe what he said. Why ask you to
(10:20):
simply test it, testing to see if you're holding to
the place. If I use the word Jesus Christ, or
the word God, or the word Lord, or the word Jehovah,
and it convey it in any way whatsoever the stains
of some existent something outside of man, you have failed
(10:43):
the test. You have the wrong God, you have the
wrong Lord, the wrong Jesus Christ. For the Lord God
Jehovah is your imagination, and that is Jesus Christ. Now,
who is the dreamer in the Bible. His name is
be the thirty seventh chapter of Genesis when you go home.
(11:05):
It's a beautiful chapter. It begins with the history of
the family of Jacob that I was started. And then
they say it, now Jacob's name is Israel, or Jacob
wrestled successfully with the Lord, and he changed his name
from Jacob, which means the supplenist to Israel and the
word Israel. To break it down each race al it
(11:27):
is simply the man who rules as God, not like
a God, as God is God. That is now Israel
loved Joseph more than any other of his children, because
he was the son of his old age. But he
(11:48):
wasn't the last one, for Benjamin was he was the eleven.
Benjamin was the twelfth. But then he said, the son
of the old age. You can see this whole picture
now with Abraham and Isaac, the son of his old age.
It is a promised child has come. Now. Joseph's name
(12:08):
was changed to that of Joshua. Moses changed his name
from Joseph to Joshua. Well, Joshuah is the he breaks
form of the word Jesus, and Jesus being Jehovah is salvation.
That's what the root of Jesus is, which is the
root of Joshuah, God saved about is the root of
(12:31):
the words. So his name really is Joshua, which is Jesus.
So he changed the name to Joshua. He had a dream.
When he interpreted the dream, the brothers hated it. Then
he had a second which also now included a father
and mother, And when the father heard of it, the
(12:53):
father kept it to himself. Jacob kept it himself because
the son the move an eleventh starts bowed before it,
which meant the parents and the brothers would all bow
before him. As the ruler he would be the Lord.
Then you are told in the thirty seventh Song, I
(13:15):
mean thirty seventh chapters of Genesis, that as he approached
the brothers, they said, behold this dreamer. Cover. Here comes
the dreamer. And it was Joseph, and they sold him
into flavor. So you're told in the New Testament that
Jesus emptied himself and took upon himself the form of
(13:39):
a slave. That's the same story told differently. Took upon
himself the form of a slave, and became obedient unto death,
even death upon the cross. This is the cross. This
is the garment of slaves. This is the garment of forgetfulness.
And I actually became one who completely forgot who I
(14:03):
am when I assume this form of the slave. But
who assumed it? The dreamer? And who is the dreamer? Joshua?
And who is Joshua Jesus? And who is Jesus, the
Lord God Jehovah. That is your own wonderful human imagination,
that is Jesus. Now we have told all things are
(14:26):
possible to do. So when Paul speaks, now are things
that he believes. Listen to him carefully. He's writing his
final letter to Timothy. And in this letter to Timothy
he said, I know whom I have believed, not what
everyone will tell you what he believes. I believe this, that,
(14:47):
and the other. As a Christian who knows anything about
the Creed. He will say and repeat the Creed, the
apostles Creed. This is what he believes. That's what Paul says,
all theology, that's all the ceremonies of the outer world.
I know whom I have believed. It's a personnel. Now,
(15:10):
he turned to Timothy. He said, though, follow the pattern
of the true words which you have heard from me, God,
the truth which has been in trusted to you by
the Holy Spirit, who dwells within us. It dwells within me.
He is the Holy One, and he is the dream
(15:32):
of dreaming, this life of mind. He waits on me
just as indifferently and as with when the will in
me is evil, as when it is good, it doesn't
really matter. Out of him springs for good and evil.
Listen to the words in the forty pep of Isaiah.
(15:56):
I formed the light, and I create the darkness. I
make real and I create will. I am the Lord
who do all these things. Yes, out of me, all
things go good, bad or indifference, whatever I imagine. But let
(16:20):
any want to imagine anything. It's going to come out
into this world, round the bustles and project yourself on
the skin of space to bear witness to his own
creative power. Get creating it, morning, noon and night. So
watch what you are imagining, for that is God in action.
(16:40):
Is no other God. So as you imagine, so your
life is going to be. You want to be other
than what you are? You can't sign if you know
who God is, because by him all things were made,
and without him was not anything made that was made.
Now here is the secret. This tabulous world of ours
(17:04):
is nothing more than the appeasement of conger. The whole
vast world is for that purpose, to appease your hunter.
And if you know who you are, you can view
the world from any state in this world the infinite states,
and these states are purely a need to satisfy this aswer. So,
(17:29):
if I want to be other than what I am
at the moment, first of all, define what I want
to be? What would I like to be in this world?
Now begin to imagine, as if it were true I
know what I want to be? Well it if I
want to be it, pease, wanting to be it and
appropriate it, make the feeling something that is real. Now
(17:53):
suppose it were true. Begin now to imagine the thing
as if it were true. That is subjectively appropriating the
objective hope. I hope it would be true. Well, now
appropriated first subjectively, as though it is true. So I
appropriated subjectively as I appropriated subjectively. What am I appropriating?
(18:16):
I am appropriating the objective hope. That's what this man
Willson did. That's what he had in view. He wanted
to have this thing because what he had before the
war came to an end. To hold him with all
of art, he had must find something new, a new product.
And the big giants turned it down. But that didn't
(18:37):
place him that they turned it down. They had all
the money in the world to get behind it. But
he bought the rights to it. And then for twelve
years he imagined and kept tone. Never thought this he
can be persistent in the imaginal act. To change my world,
I had to change the imaginal act. Every full effect
(19:00):
in this world has an imaginable act as the cause.
It is not caused. What things round about you is
the unseen cause. The imaginable act their producers. The so
called outside causes are all delusion based upon our own
faulty memory. We can't remember when we imagine. Two people
(19:25):
can go back over twelve years and imagine and remember
when he imagined that twelve years ago, when others thought
him stupid and wasteful. As you said in this article,
it takes the use. It takes the young man to
make thee because he is naive anyway to make these decisions.
If today are sixty one, I will ask would I
(19:49):
do the same thing. I think I would have to
be psychoanalyzed. But he was only thirty six names. He
called that the young man at sixty one, he thinks
I might have to be psychoanalyzed to make that decision
to spend seventy five minutes that I didn't have for
It took twelve years to make half of that for
(20:09):
my company. And I invested all of that. That's what
I could bore and what I could raise by floating
new stocks and taking stock in loop of salary and
persuading my executives to do the same thing. And three
hundred of them became millionaires multi millionaires. Why say to
(20:32):
you tonight, if you have a goal, I'm not hearing
judgment as to what your goal is. You'll be the
judge of what is your goal. If you have a goal,
you can attain it. You can attain it by the
use of your own wonderful human imagination. For that is God.
There is no other God. Let the world speak of
(20:54):
all kinds of gods and gloves perfectly all right. They
have them, but they do not exist. There are the
little things on the wall that people make with their
hands and then worship them. These concepts of God are
not God, the true God. Don't have a concept of
It means a person, and the person is your reality.
(21:15):
And that reality that is immortal, is your own wonderful
human imagination. They cannot die. That is the immortal youth.
If you should drop now, it survives, It's restored the
life in the world just like this, but not yet awake.
There's a vast difference between awaken from this dream and
(21:37):
continue in the dreams. And you do not paint where
your senses seem to pass away as the world. So
the world comes to an aid. When my father died,
my mother died, my brother died, but they did not
cease to be where my senses cease toriticism, they will
restored the life, but not resurrected. The day will come.
(22:00):
Each will be redirected, which means that they will awaken
from the dream of life. For who is awakening imagination,
It is the Lord Jesus angels who will awake from
this dream of life. When he awakes, he is God himself.
So thinking from the end is the secret of it all.
(22:26):
Always go to the end. We are always imagining a
tape of our evidence. And the most creative thing in
us is to imagine and to believe. Are seen into existence,
as we are told in the Letters to the Romans,
and God calls things that are not seen as though
(22:47):
there were scenes, and the unseen becomes seen. That the
fourth chapter, the seventeenth verse of Rome That is the
Catholic translation. I prefer it to the Polisan translation, which
is God calls a thing that does not exist, and
the thing that does not exist comes into existence. Well,
(23:11):
that's all right, but I prefer the Catholic translation. He
calls a thing that is not seen. You do not
see with your mortal eye, the man that you want
to be not yet, but you will call it as
though it is seen. But how would you call a
thing as though it is seen? You walk in the
assumpthing that you are that man? So how would I
(23:32):
know that I am really walking as that man? Will
then think of frainds of yours who never knew this
man before, and then let them see that man. So
when they passed you by in your mind die, they
see the man that you're assuming that you are, and
they will say, I'll hull, I knew him, wain. That
would imply that you are not what they formerly knew.
(23:55):
I knew him when he didn't have a nigga. I
knew him when he lived on the other side of
the street. I knew him when let him say these things.
All that would imply you are not that that they knew.
But they know this man now, the new man. So
you dare to hold yourself with the new man. I
(24:15):
knew all as if it were true. And that's the
way to success. And shakespap. But is so beautiful it
has been taughting from the primal stake, that he which
is was wished until he worked, He which is was
(24:37):
wished until he worked. So let us become man and
remain man until man becomes God. That's the story. So
the gods become man male female may be this so
become man that is male female, and they remain in
(24:58):
man until man away man being all imaginations, and then
you will God. So tonight, take the most marvel concept
you could hold yourself all of a friend, and dare
to assume it, not only for yourself, but for the friends,
and walk in that assumption as though it were true.
(25:20):
And though at the moment your reason denies it and
your senses deny it, if you persist in it, it
will harden inter fact. This is what the Bible teaches.
But we have gone so far astray with all the
theology and all the ceremonies and all the husiasticism. That
is not religion. That's not true religion. That's not what
(25:43):
the Bible teaches. If you read you read it carefully.
So you take the story and it presents itself as history,
secular history. It's not secular history. It's the story of salvation.
If I will tell you now the history, said he
the history of the family of Jacob, and a new reason,
And how he loves Joseph more than any other of
(26:06):
his children, because he was the son of his old age,
and he made him a long and wonderful row with sleeves.
One day you'll find out why the sleeve, Why that
sleeve is severed, that the arm of the Lord may
be revealed, which means the might and the power of God.
(26:28):
These things happen after you are born. From about that
sleeve is tore away from your garment, and it's a
beautiful color, lovely color for your sold of this garment.
He made a multi colored god. But the sea that
comes off is them of beautiful baby blue. When he
tears it off, he who seems to be the absort,
(26:51):
and he severed it and then pulls it off, and
your arm is there from her to there, and then
you know the words who has believed our report? And
to whom has the arm of the law been revealed?
Then you see how literally true scripture is. It's not
just only figurative, but it is literally true. Actually, you
(27:15):
go through that experience where your sleep or he made
him a long role with sleeves your told and who
did be clothing He clothed Joseph, And Joseph's name is Joshah,
and josh is Jesus, So whose arm has been on
veils the Lord himself. Then you'll know who you are.
(27:37):
All these things add up to your knowledge of God,
and you find God not as something external to yourself.
You find him as yourself. You are the Lord, You
are God, and there is nothing in the world but God.
If you take it seriously and test it your proven
(28:00):
don't say no to it before you test it. And
if there is evidence for a thing, it doesn't really
matter how stupid it seems to be on the surface.
This there is a machine called zero, seems stupid to IBM,
and all the brilliant minds that they employ give them
populous salaries to bring new things into their company, and
(28:22):
they pass their judgment. That is not good. You go
to another firm, but millions behind them to invest codak.
That's no good. And here he calls it zero because
it's the Greek meaning dry writing, and so he named
it purposely at first of us call zerographic by writing
(28:46):
condensed zero. Now wouldn't those who now have stock in IBM,
who are the big giants in IBM, whould they're not
like to have their a few thousand cheers of zero
when it was nothing? How rapidly in twelve years that
thing grew from one hundred and ninety six thousand dollars
(29:10):
that produced one hundred and twenty It doesn't make sense,
does it? But the other facts, So the facts tell
you the face, or here are the facts. One hundred
and ninety six thousand dollars investing for his alma maters
their money, and today they have one hundred and twenty
millions out of that one hundred ninety six thousands, and
(29:31):
he hadn't made some multi millions. He needs them twenty
millions plus millions in trust because he wants to pay
back what he felt they did for him as a
graduate of the University of Rochester. And he's persuaded all
others to do the same thing for their arm matters
if they have really applied this principle of imagining. Why
(29:56):
tell you God is your own wonderful human ema the nation?
Others may tell you that he's something in the side
as the sky. I turned on the events the other
night and it was raining, all the rain coming down
on him, and he had to plug his father in law,
(30:17):
father law god of and spoke in Chinese. I can't
understand Chinese. Then he interpreted for us in English then
he plugged his books. Then he tells his best audience,
sixty five thousand out of there, plus the millions who
are looking, and I was one of them. And he
makes a big pitch for money. This cost us awful
(30:39):
lot of money, he said, So let us hear from you. Well,
he spent the first fifteen twenty minutes on plugging for money,
publicizing his father in law. The father in law takes
the mic and publicizes him. So the first twenty minutes
when he does self congratulations, then I turned it off.
I couldn't wait any longer. Right, where's the mess? What
(31:01):
methic is he going to give me? Concern? In scriptures?
And I could think of nothing but that word of ae.
George Russell, the great Irish mystic poets and painter, and
all the priests met in Dublin one year, and he
wrote his friend in America. He did, a thousand priests
(31:23):
are here for some great convention. And it has started
to reign, and said ad, and I do hope the
good Lord shows his displeasure and runs the bachison. Well,
here the reign is coming down on it, and he
is telling us how he is suffering in the rain.
(31:44):
All the others are on the shelter. But he's rough,
all right. But he's going to receive fortunes that night
for his crusade, and that is called the work of price.
And he's pointing on the outside to him. He's going
to come from someplace on the outside. He will wait
forever and never find him until he finds him within himself.
(32:05):
When he finds him, it's his son who reveals him,
and his son is David. David sends before him and
calls him father. Then he will know who the Lord
Christ Jesus is. He will know Christ who sends before him,
(32:26):
and he will know himself as the Lord Jesus, who
is the Lord God Jovah. Only then will you know it.
But now you take it and try to feel. I
hope you can actually identify yourself with the dreamer. Can
you come to some identification with this dreamer? So you
(32:50):
do not speak of something on the outside creating it,
but your own being is creating the dream, the dream
of night, and this the dream of day. For this
is just and much dreams. People ask you never what
is a vision? But this is a vision right now?
This is a vision. Oh no, I don't mean that.
I mean, when you close your eyes and you see something,
(33:12):
I said, this is the vision. This is just as
much a vision as the vision of the Knight to be.
My visions of the Knight have cubic reality, just like
this solid real. If all that world is vision. But
Blake said to his friend, who wonders, what must I
do to do what you do to see as you see?
(33:34):
He said, you only have to raise imagination to the
point of visions, and the thing is done. But said he,
the nature of visionary fens or imagination is very little known.
People do not know it. They can't be intense about
it and raise it to something just like this. It
(33:56):
is just like this. This is vision. The whole bath
world is vision, and you are the ones creating it all.
So this is the dream of life when you're awake,
and in the dream when you are asleep, and you
call that the dreams, it suggests what the dreams. And
if you catch yourself dreaming, you chance it are you
want to awake. But if you catch yourself dreaming and
(34:17):
you decide not to wake, you can control the beams
and make it come out as you want to. The
same thing here. If you know this is a dream.
You can change the nature of the dreams. And so
you can simply assume that you are what you are
like to be, and that frainds of yours are what
you are like that to be, and walk in that
assumption as though it were true. And to the degree
(34:40):
that you are faithful to that assumption, having faith in God,
who is your own wonderful human imagination, to that degree
it would externalize itself in your world. Now, that is
my story to you and to everyone who will listen
to them. I would not take back one word, or
all to one word. The whole thing has been explained
(35:03):
to me in the depth of my own beings. It's
been revealed to me. I am not specond. I'm not
trying to set up any workable philosophy of life. I
have no desire to set up a little church. We
have too many already. All the little isms run for
self help really of the individual who runs them, not
(35:25):
for the help of those who come. It's just a
personal little thing of those who set up the little organization.
But I have no desire to set up any organization.
Just to tell it to you in the hope that
your memory is good enough to retain it. Now. At
least your memory is aided by these things. There. If
you're forgotten, you can always spect the little thing and
(35:46):
play it back, and then tind to refresh your memory.
All I ask of you is don't change it. There
are those who attempt to change what I have said,
to make it confirmed to what they think I oft
have said. No, I say exactly what happened to me,
So don't try the change. I told a friend ton
a lady in San Francisco. He thought I should not
(36:10):
mention certain things. She was a strict vegetarian and a
strict tee chotre, and she ordered my script to say that,
I say a man shall be a vegetarian and a
tea chosra. Well, I've never said that. I take my
martinis every day. I don't do it six days a week,
and not on Sundays. I have no Sunday. Every day
(36:31):
is my Lord's day, so I take it on Sunday,
Saturday and Monday. But every day I have a few
martinis before my evening meal and a nice bottle of
wine for my lunch. That and little cheese is my lunch.
But a bottle of wine I thoroughly enjoy it. And
she dares to take what I said and then rub
(36:53):
it out and put in her own little concept and said,
this is what never teaches. So in you one thing,
Do not change what I am saying. If you approve
of this approved, leave it just as it is. I
am telling you who I know to be God. I
tell you over and over again, God is your own
wonderful human imagination. All things are possible to God. Therefore
(37:18):
all things are possible to your imagination. Everything you see
in this world was first only imagined. It had to
be first imagined. This there's a thing called x ROX.
This man called Carson invented it. No one child any interests,
and in the nineteen thirties he brought it out. He
(37:38):
was a physicist and he knew it would work, but
no one's children the interest. But he first had to
imagine it, and then he executed it till they would
not accept it. Then comes one with real imagination who
was awakens only thirty six years old in a business
that he inherited from his father, and he saw the
(37:59):
forte and he was willing to take all the earnings
of twelve years. That's what he could bow in loans
and what he could get in issuing new stocks. And
he put seventy five million dollars into a project because
he imagined it and believed it. He saw the reality.
If I begin to imagine now and suddenly before my
(38:21):
eyes comes the solid reality of what I'm imagining, Who
is going to tell me it isn't real. I can
show it to someone else, but to me, it's really.
I saw it. Well, then I will go all out
and sell everything I have to prove it to the world.
If I had interest in visits. My father did that
(38:42):
every morning after break with he would sit down and
what we call the Burbise chair and put his feet
out on the arms of a chair. It's a chair
made in the West Indies, and there he would still
live with his eyes partly shut. He would see that
there's he who wanted it to be. He would carry
on mental conversations with many had to meet that day
from his premises and brought them to his conclusion. And
(39:06):
that's how you work. And my brother Victor it the
same thing. It doesn't matter what things look like in
the world. You see that as he wants to see it,
and things come up and now doesn't make millions, but
millions in a little tiny place like Barbatas put him here,
he will be the z blox set up because he
(39:28):
has a vivid imagination and he knows how to use it.
But as Brake says, that the nature of visionary fancy
or imagination is very little understood. They don't understand it.
He just everything I see in my world is visions,
the free visions within the solid reality I can bring
before my mind's eye. It's just as solid as that.
(39:51):
So I don't make everything real I know for my
own experience, but I have no interest in business. I
turned it it. Actually take a business concept and bring
it to the point where I can see to be real.
But I have no desire whatsoever to go into business.
So my visions are based upon someone asking help out,
(40:15):
or the Bible bringing it out from its so called
stay and actually seeing it as something wild into my world.
And it's real. All these things are real. The Bible
is reality from beginning to aim, but it's all visions,
from Genesis to Revelation. The whole thing is vision. It's
(40:36):
not any little concept that our churches tell you about.
So I ask you to testin to put it into
essence as this. Believe in God. You believe in God.
Believe in your imagination, for that's God. So when you're
told in the fourteenth of John, you believe in God,
(40:59):
believe me. Also you tell you he and the Father
are one. He tells you later on in that same
chapter you see me, you see the Father. So you
believe in God the Father. Believe in me. All I
am your imagination. Now, believe in that. You can't go wrong.
(41:21):
Believe in the reality of your imaginal acts, and they
all become back, every one of them. And I do
hope you will start now if you haven't started. I
ask nothing of you in the way of Caesar's world,
not one thinning. But I would like confirmation in the
(41:42):
form of a letter. I love to feel that you're
getting the results. If you don't have to share with
me the fruit of this principle, I'm not asking for
that at all. I've never asked for it. I've been
doing this since nineteen thirty eight, and I've never made
an appeal for my that form or in any other
form to raise mind. I have never, and today I
(42:07):
would quit and go elsewhere before I would ask you
for one rate painting outside of the price you pay
when you come here. I have to pay for this place,
and so it has to be depraised expensive. But I
have never appealed to anyone for a penny. I started
(42:27):
on the second day of February nineteen hundred and thirty eight.
Anyone who can go back sorrying out will know I
have never once asked for one nickel. I either had
to prove it to myself or else let it fall
by the wayside. So I tell you it works. It
will not pay you, but we are the offering power.
(42:50):
It doesn't operate itself. If I know what to do,
do it. If I do not do what I know
I should do, that's sinning. I'm going to miss them all,
not anything else. If I know what it is right
to do and I don't do it. For the next thing,
so let us now go into the silence and see
(43:12):
ourselves as we would like to be seen by the
whole vast world. And when we break the silence and
go home tonight, walk in the assumption that we are
that person. Now, let us go
