Speaker 1 (00:00):
Will be here every Monday and Friday through April, same place,
same time. I think you will find tonight a very
practical message. But to understand it we must go back
and see if you really believe the same thing. I
(00:24):
make the claim that the eternal body of man is
the imagination, and that is God himself, the one we
speak of in Scripture as Jesus Christ. Now we are
told in Scripture to examine ourselves to see whether we
(00:48):
are holding to the faith.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Test yourselves, said, Paul.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you, unless,
of course, you fail to meet the tests. Now you've
just had the test, and you and you alone can
judge whether you've failed or not. For you heard the
word Jesus Christ. You heard the word God. Now if
(01:20):
it conveyed the sense I would existence something outside of man, you.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Fail the test.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
If when you hear the word God, or the word Jesus,
or the word Christ, the word Lord, and the mind
jumps to something outside of you, outside of man, you
fail the test. Now we are told by Him all
things were made, and without him was not anything made
(01:53):
that was made. And that I tell you is your
own wonderful human in what is now proved in the
world was one's only imagined.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
But this is the greatest of all secrets, the secret
of imagining.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Something that you and I in every one in the
world should strive to understand. For the secret of imagining
is the greatest of all problems, to the solution of
which everyone should aspire or supreme power, supreme wisdom, supreme
delight lies in the solution of this mystery. When you
(02:44):
actually discover it, you discover God. You're finding the creative
power of the universe. And when you're finding He is
your own wonderful human imagination.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
You can only rarely scratch the surface of this, mister.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
One, imagination, it seems, will do little for our wish
until we have imagined the wish fulfilled. As Shakespeare said,
it hath been taught us from the primal state, that
(03:25):
that which is was wished until it were.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
So.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
You and I want something, and we define our objective
how to realize it. If this power is within us,
then we are the opera and power. We do not
seek anyone on the outside. It's simply within us. Well,
how do I operating? If I could put it in
(03:53):
this simple little frame, The subjective appropriation of the objective
hope is the way to success. It's imagining as if
it were true. What would the feeling be like if
it were true.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
So I start from.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
The feeling of the wish fulfill I must begin by
feeling that I have already arrived, I have already achieved
my goal. And catch the mood that would be mine
if it were true, and.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Then wear that mood.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
If I wear that mood as if it were true,
I realized that in my world a friend of mine
was her tonight she thought that she had failed. This
passed November in her visit to Poughkeepsie fitz Pittsburgh, friends
(04:58):
of hers that she knew where, and they were a
little bit dull because of the seeming recession. One Trend
had worked for twenty seven years at Jones and Lachlan,
one of the.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Great big steel firms of our country.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
In the months of September and October they let out
four thousand workers. He had to put in three more
years three years and two months to complete a thirty.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Year service with the firm.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
After thirty years, he could retire of very good I
would say retirement fun. But he also had six more
years ago for his social security, and then at out
four thousand and then it was rumored in the plant
that they're going to close that plant. She reminded him
(05:56):
of the youth of imagination, which he had used with
him successfully in her previous visit to Pittsburgh, but he
left it off. Those things would have happened anyway. She
reminded him of six distinct.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Request on his spot that he thought he could not realize.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Everyone came to pass as she reminded him, and then
she took a vision of mine and explained it to him.
She said, what I told you the last time, never
had a vision. Well, the Bible tells us that the
depths of our own beings speaks to us through the
medium of dreams and viition. So here in this dream
(06:45):
of mind, called the dream if you will, it was
just as real as this. I was taken in spirit
into an enormous mansion, and here three generations were present.
But why was invisible? And that was the grandfather. The
(07:06):
father was explaining to his children the secret of his
own father's success. So there was the grandfather that departed
from the world, leading behind him an enormous fortune for
the benefit of his son, and then his grandchildren, And
so the father said to the children. Grandfather used to say,
(07:29):
while standing on an empty lot, I remember when this
was an empty lot. Then he would paint a word
picture so vividly of what he intended to do with
that empty lot that it ceased to be an empty lot.
And you saw the structure that he intended to biddle.
(07:52):
But he acted as though it was already a completed act.
He began with the feeling of having arrived at his
ideal for that empty lot. Then I awoke on my bed,
and I recall the dream, and I knew that the
(08:16):
depth of my own being had constructed that scene to
instruct me. There is one facet of the great use
of this power called imagination, which is God.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
It was too early to rise, so I went back to.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Sleep, and I redreamed the dream. This time I am
the grandfather. I am not the father telling the story.
I am not an ease dropper listening to the story
as it was told in the original dream.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I am now the grandfather.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
And I would say to everyone, by standing on an
empty lot, I remember when this was an empty lot.
So she reminded him of this technique. Now she said,
you are afraid that you might be let out. After
twenty seven years and two months in Jones and Loughlin,
(09:19):
I will now remember when you were afraid. I will
remember when you thought it all came to an end.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
That's one he said.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Two years ago, I was interviewed, and I thought it
a very good interview.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
But after two years it is never a player in
the trade paper, and I wondered, what have they done
with it?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Have they simply forgotten it, mislaid it, or deliberately not
used it? She said, I will read that magazine and
I'll be lifted.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Up by it.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
It's hereously written, as you tell me. Well, I will
take that book right now in my hand at magazine
and I will read it all about you. She went
into two or three others. Then she returns. Now she's
here to night, he said. In December, I received the magazine.
(10:21):
It's very well written and very very humorous, all.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
About this man.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Then she said, I heard on the radio that Jones
and Rockman had decided not to close the plant but.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Instead to spend thirteen million.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Dollars on the planet in modernizing and then, beginning January,
the first to with Paul to recall over four thousand
workers that they had let out.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Now he is walking on air, but like all of
these dollars, he will still forget it.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
You still turned to a god outside of himself. This
to him would have happened anyway. There would have stink
that thirteen million got back the four thousand, that thing
that was found after two years and printed, Oh, that
would have happened. And man goes blindly on worshiping a
(11:24):
false God because he does not know God. The only
God is your own wonderful human imagination.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
The only name forever and forever that.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Is his name is I Am.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
So that is my name forever.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
So when you come to the people of Israel and
they ask you what is his name, justin't be saying
I Am. That is who I am, and by this
name I shall be known throughout all generations.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
There is no other name.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
You cannot separate I AM from yourself. That's your essential being.
And when you say I am your all imagination. You
cannot stick imagination on the outside and point to it.
So you do not observe it as you observe the
fruit of imagining. You do not observe imagination as you
(12:24):
do objects in space because you are the reality that
is called imagination. This is what we teach here night
after night.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Now you can test it. What would the feeling be
like if it were true that I am now the
man that I would like to be. What would the
feeling be like?
Speaker 1 (12:47):
That's the mood, for the mood determines the fortunes of people.
Rather than the fortunes, determine the mood and put to
just the opposite. If I had a million, he said,
I will feel so good. Now see it as if
you had it.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Catch the mood, and the mood will create that objective hope.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
If that is your hope, What would the feeling be
like if you are now the person you want to be?
And catch that mood and wear that mood as you
would have stood of clothes, and that mood will actually
create an objective state that reflects that mood.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
That's what she did.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
She put herself into a mood, actually feeling that you
was reading a story of a friend, and here it
came is a complete spread, two full pages all about
this man, and then a little news bulletin on the radio,
and then confirmation from him on a telephone call from
(13:54):
his wife confirming the news bulletin that they're all back
on the I'm here now, as he said for years.
After twenty seven years, I walked through that plant, I
thought I'll go crazy. I wanted to climb the wall
because of the noise. But I heard the hammers and
(14:15):
the bellows and the.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Furnaces and all these thousands of workmen that constant, constant, din.
I want to climb the wall.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Now, after four thousand were let out, my footsteps echoes
through the entire area.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I would like to run and scream, running towards my office.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
What he does in the plant, I do not know
if he goes towards his office, And doubt he has
an executive position.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
In that place. And it's not working at the furnaces.
But so you can't imagine.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
And four thousand were let out, how empty the place was,
and everything simply echoed, and my footsteps seemed like some
hundred things as I walked through that plant towards my aupice,
and many a moment I wanted the simply jump up
and start running.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
It seems so empty.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
She's all right, that's something I will remember when and
she applied that technique when your footsteps scared.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
You and you wanted to run towards the office. Now
it's the clackap all over again.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
So I tell you, I know from my own experience
that these moods you catch a mood. I could tell
from the mood that possessed me through the day that
I would meet a certain character.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
And I met that character.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
It may be someone I knew or some total stranger,
but I could tell from the very mood that possessed me,
I'm drawing into my world an.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Affinity with that mood. You can catch a mood.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
And create the world that is in harm me with
the mood. Anyone can do it. In fact, you're doing
it morning, noon and night anyway. So when you turn
to some external god, you are turning to a false god.
There is no external God. Examine yourselves, said Paul the Seaweller.
(16:12):
You are holding to your faith tests yourselves.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you,
unless indeed you fail to meet the tests. You've just
had the test.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
So if you think of some being on the outside,
but I use the word Jesus.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Christ, you have the wrong Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Or we're told by him all things were made, and
without him was not anything made that is made.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Look into the room. All this was once only imagined.
That suit you wear, the dresses you wear, the hat
you wear.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Everything here the building is once only conceived in the
human imagination and then executing. And if all things were
made by him, well did I first come down to
find out who he is? I can't go beyond my
own imagination. I exactly what I imagine. I see the results,
(17:09):
So I go back All things made by him? Yes, good, bad,
and indifferent. He waits on me just as quickly and
just as indifferently when the will in me is evil
as when it is good.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Is that in scripture?
Speaker 1 (17:26):
You'll find it in scription? Read it in the Book
of Deuteronomy. I call I make a lie, I wound,
I heal, and none can deliver out of my hands.
I I am the Lord.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Read it.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
See that in the thirty second chapter of the Book
of Deuteronomy. There is no other God.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
I am the Lord, your God, And besides me, there
is no other God. I am is that God. And
if you're told he a forty six song, be still
and know that I am God.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
A man who will not believe it. And yet he
has evidence morey, noon and night that his own wonderful
creative power, which is his own wonderful human imagination, is
producing the phenomena of life. He sees it all around him,
but he shuns it away. It's easier for him to
genuine likely for some little thing made by the human hand.
(18:34):
So he put him on the wall and cross himself
for luck. I think, oh, that's it, that's good. Now've
done my duty today. So he goes to church and
he sings the hymns.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
With all the others. And if he's not done my
duty and give generousy to the church perfectly, all right.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
If you get any pressure out of it, do it.
But that's not serving the true God. If you want
a social gathering, certainly go to church, go to the
coffee break following the service, and as one percent of
those who come out of service, what was the text today?
Speaker 2 (19:08):
And he will look at you with some breaker, Look
what what was the text? What did he say? What
was the theme of his subject? Today? They don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
But it's a place to go on certain days of
the year, especially on Christmas, on Eastern and days of
that nature. Others make it an appointed go once a week.
The thing they're doing God a favor. You're walking with
God morning, noon and night. You're taking to bate with
you because You're essential being is God, and there is
(19:42):
no other God. Were He not within you, you couldn't even breathe.
Your breath is God. Every child, God or woman is
God incarnate. If men only knew.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
That, there could be no war in the world. Killing
man is killing God.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
For every child born a woman is the incarnation of God.
Whether you be black, yellow, pink, white, or any other
car there is no other being in this world but God.
So the incarnation takes place every time a little child
is born, and it wreathes and you spank it to
get it to cry. That moment was the incarnation of God.
(20:26):
How can you kill him? How can you heard it?
Just teach him and.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Show him what power is latent within him. For the
whole vast world aches for the awakening of the imagination
in man.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
And the story has told us in scripture is a
true story, but not as it stole. The day will
come you'll actually find yourself reenact the entire drama as
told us in the Gospel, and you will know.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
It in the first person. Thinking of intense experience, and
then you'll know who he is.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
He comes to us as one unknown, yet one who
in the most wonderful, mysterious manner, lets man experience who
he is. And when you experience who he is, it's
all about you. It's not about another. The whole vast
drama is all about the individual that you see as
(21:29):
a little child right in this wonderful world of our us.
But here tonight, let us keep it on this level,
and on this level tonight, when you dream of some
wonderful objective is this world that is not yet realized, realize.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Who the dreamer is. And the dreamer is God. And
by a dreamer, I'm in your own wonderful imagination. Now
a day dream. That's God. That's God in action.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Now, do not let your reason and your senses dictate
what is possible.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
All things are possible to God. So suspain for a
moment your reason.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Suspain the senses that are dictating what you must accept
for their demanding of you.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Accept the facts of life, all right.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
If you could accept the facts of life and let
reason dictate it, you'll never go beyond where you are.
So suspain them, just for a moment, and try this tecontyque.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
What would the feeling be like?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
How would I feel if they were true that I
am already the man that I would like to be?
And if I am, how would I see my friends?
And how would they see me? It's all within us.
So let my wonderful human imagination see them as they.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Would have to see me if it were true.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Bring into my mind's eye and let them see me,
and let them talk to me, and let them congratulate
me on my good forte. And don't duck accept the
congratulations of your friends if you really mean it, actually
play the part all within yourself, and then believe it
(23:13):
one hundred.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
As if we are told in John's letter the fifth
chapter of his Purse Epistle, if we believe that he
hears this.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Is all that we ask of him, then we know
that we have obtained the request made of him. What
if you get the right gud, you have no doubts
in your mind as to whether he heard you or not,
for you know you heard it, and that's God. But
if you're not quite sure that he heard it, because
(23:48):
there are three billions talking to him baking, well, then
you may be not quite sure that he heard you,
and you don't think.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
You're good enough, But you can't deny that. You hear
your own mind, You hear your own inner conversation, you
hear your own inner speech. Well, if you know.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
That one is God, whether you are sure he hurts you,
Now you are told in that fifth chapter, the fifteenth verse,
our first e persent of God. If we know that
he hears us in all that we ask of him,
then we know that we have already obtained the request.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Made of him.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Well, all right, there's an interval between that imaginal act
and this fulfillment, as there is between the creative act of.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
A man and the birth of that child.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Every little thing has an interval of time between the
act and its fulfillment. A horse will take twelve months,
a woman takes nine months, the little sheep will take
five months. A chicken will take twenty one days. Intervals
(25:00):
of time, so the Bible teaches, every vision has its
own appointed hour.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
It rifles, it will flower. If it be late, then
wait for it is sure, and it will not be late.
Different intervals of time, So it may take me a
longer time in this case.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
With this man two months to bring back four thousands
who were unemployed. To put his mind at rest that
he doesn't have now to feel that he's going to
be fired. He's going to put in out the extra
time only a little while.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Three years and two.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Months will complete his thirty years with Jones and Laughlin,
and then once a man of his age, six more
years and.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Then social Security, so he'll have both. If it happened now,
he wouldn't have it.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
He will be cut on social Security and he would
be let out without a good retirement fun.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
So she goes back and she reminds him that it
happened before.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
She couldn't afford the roof for the house, and she said,
I will see the roof.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
On the house.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
I remember when it needed a root, and so she
simply remembered.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
She told him, I recalled telling you, I remember Wayne,
he needed it. But soon after something happened in his work.
He got the money and the roof is on. The
wife wanted an organ. Couldn't afford the organ, all right,
She said, I remember when you didn't have one. She
has the organ, and she took one after the other.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Of all these things, he's still with all the evidence
in the world. He's still working on some outside God.
He thinks he's doing the wrong thing. He feels that
if per chance that man is simply a devil incarnate,
and he's taken me from my real guard, which means
something external to himself. That he fashions out of his
(27:03):
own mind and fashions with his hand to get all
these little nonsenses that you buy and stick them up
as holy objects. First of all, no artists really ever
designed them, they said, a sense to speak of an
artist when you see these horrible monstosophies that we buy
and stick around the place and call them religious objects.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
So find who he is. He is the living God.
He is a dead god.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
You want to find me the one hundred and fifteenth
Psalm about the kind of gods that main worship. The
whole Psalm is devoted to the false God that the
whole vast world worships. He had eyes, but he sees
not Anthony, hears, not hee, any walks, not Anthony, touches not.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Just a dead thing made by human hands.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
When the living God is within man as his own
wonderful human imagination.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
So I tell you that all that you behold, though
it appairs without.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
It, is within in your own wonderful human imagination, of
which this world.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Of mortality is but a shadow.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
All things exist in the human imagination, and everything you
see as an objective reality was produced by imagining. Think
of one thing, just think of one thing that would
simply deny it. You can't think of one thing, So
you go to the moon.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
You first had to imagine it. Had to imagine everything
concerning the machine that took you to the moon. Everything
in the world first has to be imagined, and then
execute it.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
All right, the intelligence that do it will come, But
you take the glop in first and conceive it and
dwelling it as though it were true, and no power
on earth can stop it from becoming self. Your visions
will clarify itself. At night. It's a different kind of
a night. Your days are different. You see people differently.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
You can't walk by any man and not see him.
God Incarnate can't do it, even if he has the
most horrible.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Background, and he said simply, well a murderer, and it's
proven that he is. You still see God incarnate. But
so some desleep the poor thing doesn't know it. Can
only just get to it and show him that he
really is God incarnate.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
And the one he thought he killed.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
He's been restored to life, not to the saints of men,
but he is restored in a world just like this,
to restore just like this about his business.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
He continues his words.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Until he too awakens from this dream of life. We
all will awaken eventually, But why not start now, Start
now to tell man who he really is.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
God and man are one. Man is all imagination, and
God is mad and exists in us and we in him.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
The eternal body of man is the imagination that is
God himself, nothing but God in the.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Universe, all God.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
And eventually you and I will awake Because God is one,
not two.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
You and I are one without loss of identity. That's
one of the.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Faintest misfeas in the world. Without loss of identity. We
are one. I know that from my own personal experience.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
We are one.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
And yet I am individualized and you are individualized, and
retain forever and forever toward over greater and greater individualization.
And yet we are one. And I will bring that
out to the best viability. As we seed with these
(31:16):
objective you will hear it. But tonight, if you're here
for the first time and you want something practical. You
apply what I've told you. First, have an objective. You
must have an objective. You can't say, well I don't
(31:36):
know what I want? Well, all right, come back the
next time. Ask yourself what would I like of life?
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Don't be ashamed to name it? What would I like
of life? Well? Then finally get some objective. Now, prayer,
as far as I'm concerned, is nothing.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
More than the subjective appropriation of the objective. Hope that
is the way to success. I appropriate it subjectively. How
do I appropriate a state subjectively? But I suppose now
this very moment, I wanted a ball, an ordinary baseball.
(32:15):
But there isn't a baseball in the room, all right, but.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
I want one.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
I would actually assume that I am holding a baseball
in my hand until I could feel it. You think
you can't feel it while out fly it. Try to
feel what it would be like if you held a baseball.
Now to prove that you have held it. See what
it feels like. The difference now a tennis ball, skinny difference,
(32:47):
or ride a golf ball, shiny difference, a piece of silk?
You feel any difference? If you can distinguish between these
many objects, those they are subjective, then there must exist
some where. If you could actually separate them in your
mind's eye and.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Distinguish between these objicts, I can begin to feel, begin
to sense, begin to smell.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
A rose, Well, a rose doesn't smell or doesn't actually
have the odor of another flower. I can detect the rose.
Now a lily, an easter lily, I can detect that.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
But what does it do. Well, I'm going to get
them shown.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
One must be of Nevil and send him a flower,
and let's call be the flower. If I'm going to
actually feel and touch and smell, it works that way.
Money has an odor. It's unlike any other of the world.
Is more fragrant to the miser than the most marvelous
(33:53):
perfume in the world.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
He can tell it. You put the money back to
his pace, and it's like putting roses to my He
loved it.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
He can smell, money can feel it. Money has a
distinct feel about it. Put a twenty dollars bill in
your hand and ask you to feel it, and then
put another piece of paper in your hand, and you
can tell the difference.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
That's the difference. It is an odor to it all.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
This is part of the inner man that all things
are possible to him. Try it before you condemn it.
Try it unless you have the evidence of support my claim.
But then it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
What the world will tell you if he laughs at you.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
So what so the last of everyone who had an
idea that seemed a little bit off center always that
at him. The last of the idea of going to
the moon. Well, now it's an accomplished fact. There's still
those who won't believe it happened, you know, because they
don't want to believe it ever happened to those who
(34:55):
said you couldn't go down and actually live underwater, and
we have a.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
There are still those who won't believe it.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
You can present them with all the facts in the
world and they won't believe it. So I tell you
you try it first, and that to prove itself in performance.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
It doesn't really matter what the whole bad world takes.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
Go about your father's business, visuons yourself, and then live
a full and wonderful life in this world of Caesar.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
And the day will come you will actually depart this world.
I mean this.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Age because those who are departing it now, unless they
are awakened, they still find themselves in a world just
like this. But those who have awakened, who have experienced
the second birth to burst them about, find themselves in
an entirely different age where they're all imagination and they
(35:52):
are perfect.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Wherever they go, everything is perfect. They don't have to
raise a finger to make anything perfect because they're perfect.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
All things must conform to them for their perfect that's heaven.
So heaven is not an area, it's not a realm.
It's a body. And when that body is awakened within you,
which is the wonderful human imagination, completely awake, then wherever
you go, clothed in that body that is completely awake,
(36:22):
everything is perfect. If you found yourself in a forest
of dead trees that all burst into foliage in the desert,
it would all bloom like the.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Rose because you are there. No blind man, deaf man,
no handicapped man could stand in your presence. You'd be
instantly transformed into a perfect man because you are perfect.
Death heaven it's harmony. So it's not a place where
you're going to go through these streets and all that nonsense.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
No, it simply you in a world that is perfect
because you are perfect, and the day will come. You
will awaken that body, for itinin you. Now that body
is in you, but it's sun asleep. One day you
will experience the resurrection.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
And you know the.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
Mystery of the resurrection when you rise, and you rise
within yourself. For the grave in which Christ is varied.
If the Lord is uried, is your own SCLM. That's
where he is buried, and in that tomb where he
is very One day he will awake, and he will
(37:40):
come out of.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
That tomb, and you who comes out of the two,
and you'll know who you are.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
He is buried in every child in the world, this
universal being, and yet.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
One billions dovas, and yet.
Speaker 1 (37:59):
Only one Lord, that one Lord, in his fullness, is
buried in you individually. And when you awaken, you are here.
Speaker 2 (38:11):
Go tonight. Take a goal. Make it a lovely girl,
either for yourself or for another.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Anytime that you exercise your imagination lovingly on behalf of another,
you're mediating God to that other. So bring a friend
before your mind's eye, representing to yourself as the man
or the woman that you will like them to be.
And don't tell them as for no praise. Just assume
(38:39):
that they're talking to you and telling you the most
marvelous views about themselves, and you congratulate them on that
good news and go your own way. Believe in the
reality of that imaginal act. It may happen tomorrow, it
may happen a day after, or a week later or
a month later. It has its own appointed hour, and
(39:02):
it is rightening, and it's wont to flower, So don't
be concerned. Leave it alone, and it will come to pass.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
So this is what I mean by feeling is the secret.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
I catch the mood, the feeling that would be mine
if I were what I want to be. I don't
have to touch something I can if I want to.
But it's the move I'm speaking of. What would the
feeling be like if she were well, if she were this?
And then you catch it, just as though it is true,
(39:41):
you always go to the end, and the end is
where you begin. We're always imagining ahead of our evidence.
So go to the end and feel the end, and
then d well in that end, even though reason denies it,
and your senses denial. You turn your back upon the doubts.
(40:01):
That is your senses and what reason dictates that's the
hell or the devil or satan in the world. That's
the doubta. So you turn your back upon it, and
then you walk as though things were as you wantn't
to be, And living in that assumption, it slowly hardens
into fact, even though at the moment of the assumption
(40:22):
it was denied by reason and assumption.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Though false, if persisted in, will harden into fact. So
you learn to assume, and learn to persist in the assumption,
and it will come to pass. Now let us go.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Into the silence, after which we'll have questions. Good but
(41:44):
I hope you call it good mood.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
It'll work. Now, are there any questions? Please? Any questions? Hm? Yes, sir.
(42:15):
Well to answer your question, I must just go back
and explain it to those who are here for the
first time. No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (42:24):
I make the statement based upon my own experience. And
nothing dies. That's not only true of man, it's true
of the flowers, of the animal world, of the trees,
of everything. Nothing dies. I am the God of the living,
not of the dead. So nothing dies. The little flower
that blooms once blooms forever. It's renewed by the seed
(42:49):
of contemplated. Not for I had a wonderful friend and secretary.
He died suddenly at the age of fifty when I
was out there. Lived in New York City. He was
born in Haverstall, New York, which is upstate New York.
He lived in Manhattan and took care of my books
(43:09):
and took care of all of my business affairs. When
I got a cable saying that he was dead, they
found his body on the floor the next morning where
they went in to clean, and I must come back
and take care of the funeral affairs. So I went back.
I have two sister in law. My wife is one
of three girls. The other two are pillars of the
(43:33):
Episcopal Church, the older the two.
Speaker 2 (43:39):
Lives in Subbait, New Jersey. And she's always said to me,
you know.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
I like your personally as the brother in law, because
you're kind to my sister and to your child, and for.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
That I like you. But I don't believe one word
you talk about. That's not my God.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
I said, all right, I don't believe in immortality, don't
believe in survival.
Speaker 2 (44:04):
I said, you call yourself a Christian, so what has
that to do with it?
Speaker 1 (44:09):
I said, did you realize that the Christian foundation is
the fatherhood of God, the brotherhood of man, and life everlasting.
Speaker 2 (44:17):
You are one of these, and it's going to collapse now.
She didn't say a word. I still don't believe what
you teach totally. All right. Well, he died in August.
I went back into care of the funeral.
Speaker 1 (44:32):
In the next year, I presume around January or February.
I found myself consciously in that world where Jack is.
Speaker 2 (44:46):
I do it time and time again. This does not
restrain me. I can put it on her bed and
find myself in another world. It isn't aware. It's right there.
Speaker 1 (44:57):
They're penetrating each other and yet no interfering.
Speaker 2 (45:00):
With each other. And here is Jack, and here is
my sister in law. L I call her he her
name is Alice. And I said.
Speaker 1 (45:10):
She said to me, I still don't believe what you
teach you now, how can you say that when you
see Jack? She did, what has yet to do with it?
I said, don't you know that Jack died? Jet then
spoke to me, who's dead? I said, you aren't day, Jack,
but you die. I went to your funeral. I payed
(45:31):
for it. I got a good Catholic funeral, Jack, because
your sister insisted that you must be giving a nice
Catholic tuneral.
Speaker 2 (45:39):
But I didn't cremate you. I put you in holy ground, Jack,
I
Speaker 1 (45:44):
Got a priest, and a priest did all the little
things he has to do, so you're very well planted.
