Speaker 1 (00:00):
You should find to night, a very practical night, something
that you can test. Take it home tonight and prove it.
You'll take it from Scripture. But something first, I think
that which you are all familiar. If you took a

(00:24):
piece of steel that's magnetized, it does not differ in
substance from the demagnetized piece of steel, only in this
arrangement of its molecules. The rich man, the poor man,

(00:45):
the beggar man, the thief are not different minds, but
simply different arrangements of the same mind. There is only
God in this world. So when you say I and
I say I am, it's the same God. But we

(01:05):
have arranged the structure of our mind differently. We have
different concepts of self, and that's all. But not one
is better because he is richer than the one who
is poor. These are only different arrangements of the structure
of the mind. Now Scripture tells us, and I'm quoting

(01:29):
now the Book of James, the official of James. James
is really a letter of Jacob. The word James and
Jacob are identical in Hebrew, Greek, and in the Arabic

(01:52):
town the same word. So when they begin James a
Servant of God and the Lord Jesus Christ to the
twelve tribes. In the dispersion. You can see it once
it's simply a Christian revision of this Jewish letters, the

(02:21):
letter of Jacob. I'm purad it carefully only twice to
the insert say Jesus Christ, our Lord, all the others
ver eleven other times it is simply God. The Lord
is God, not Christ. So here it is really the

(02:46):
servant of the Lord's speaking, and he's giving us some
fantastic instruction and very practical instruction. Now listen to it carefully,
and I would quote from the very first chapter of
the Book of Jails, the doers of the world, I'm

(03:08):
not hearers only for he who is a hero, I'm
not a doer, is like a man who observes his
natural face in a mirror, then goes his way and
at once forgets what he is like. But he who

(03:30):
looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres,
he will be blessed in his doing. Now, how do
I look into the law, the perfect law which sets

(03:53):
me free, the law of liberty? I look into my mind.
I'm now in isn't I have heard the sentence. I
am exactly how long I'm supposed to serve. Now I
look into the law of liberty. In my mind, I

(04:14):
assume that I am free. I am set free. How
I am not concerned who brought it about. I am
not concerned. I simply look into the perfect law, the
law of liberty, And I dare to assume that I
am free. If I dare to assume that I am free,
I rearranged the structure of my mind, the same mind

(04:37):
that heard the sentence that I accept it when I
heard it. Now I do not accept it. I look
into the perfect law, the law of liberty. And if,
as I'm told in Scripture, I persevere, then I will
actually receive that which I am doing. I must not

(05:03):
forget what I have done and sleep this night as
though I am in prison. For if I am now
set free, where would I sleep? Let me know exactly
where would I sleep? Will dare to assume that I
am sleeping there? Now? If I sleep in the assumption

(05:24):
that I am free, I am not in jail. Even
though the VARs are them, I don't see them, close
my eyes against them. As Blake tells us, men's perceptions
are not bunted by organs of perception. He perceives more

(05:46):
than since so ever acute can discover. And so reason
or the ration of all that we already know, is
not the same that it shall be when we know more.

(06:07):
If I take this to night and test it, and
it proves itself in the testing, but that I have
added to my knowledge, and so I know more than
before I tested it. And so when I find myself
up against something that seems beyond solution, I have found

(06:31):
something that can solve it. All I have to do
is to rearrange the structure of my mind. So I
dare to assume that I am the man that I
would be, and sleep as though I am. That's the
rearrangement of that struck to the mind. I am the

(06:51):
same being. I'm nevil. I know exactly those that I
knew before, but now I know them differently. I know
now as a freezeman. But I must not be a
hero of what I heard in scripture. I must be
a doer. I must do it. So be not a doer,

(07:13):
only be a doer in the full sense of the word,
so that I actually I'll do it and persist. The
word is persevere in scripture the first chapter, the twenty
second through the twenty fifth verses of the Epistle of James.
So I will simply do it. And though tomorrow I

(07:35):
am confronted with the obvious facts of life that I'm
still in prison, it still doesn't matter. I did it,
I am doing it, and I will continue to do
it until that which I have done is perfectly externalized
within my world. I am telling you this from experience.

(07:56):
I know it. If you go to jail and you
say five to ten years, all right, you know, five
years and maybe you get off in six foot good behavior.
But when you are drafted into the army, there is
no date that you're promised where they'll let you out.

(08:19):
You're in for the duration. Well, I was drafted into
the army with seventeen million dollars. Well, I didn't ask
the permission of anyone. I only consult consulted myself. I
looked around, I knew what the world knew. It was

(08:42):
something that had to be done. But I must be
honest with myself. I didn't want any part of it.
But no part of it follows would tell me is
that the act of a coward. I didn't care what
they say, is that the good citizen. I didn't care
what they said. I just said earlier what we now know,

(09:08):
which is called reason. It's a reasonable thing to do.
We're at war, and we're all Americans going there because
our country has declared war, going there and fighting, and
so reason tells us that should be done. When I
was drafted, I did not oppose it. To drafted me

(09:28):
took me down the camp of Louisiana for my base training.
While I was there, I didn't want any part of it,
and I dared to assume that I am out of
it and made my normal natural application, as you have
to do in the world of Caesar. Within twenty four hours,

(09:51):
it came back and it was simply rejected. They were signed,
this approved and signed by my colonel, a very nice gentleman.
His name was Colonel Theodore bilbo Junka. His father was
Senator of Mississippi. I said nothing, my captain said, for

(10:17):
your sake, Godard, I am very very sorry. I know
exactly how you feel. You want to be with your
wife and your little girl. Your son is in Guadcanal
with the Marines, and you are now almost thirty eight,
and so I know but I would like to go
through this war with a man just like you at
my side, so I can say that I am sorry

(10:39):
for myself. I'm sorry only for you. I didn't say
one word to him, to the colonel, I didn't oppose it.
That was the decision of Caesar. Now I looked into
the perfect law, the law of liberty, and I persevered
in that law. And I slept that night as though

(11:02):
I slept in my own home in New York City,
on Washington Square, where I lived on the seventh floor.
I lived on that floor, and it was a very
large apartment, two bedrooms, a lovely big living room, a
dining room, a huge kitchen, and a foume. And I

(11:28):
slept in that place just as though I was there,
not in the army. I fell asleep in that state,
having done all the normal things that would make me
feel this arrangement is perfect. I rearranged the structure of
my mind. Instead of seeing twenty five men around me
sleeping upstairs and knowing that twenty five were down below

(11:49):
in the next area, I slept in my own bed,
with my wife in her bed and my little girl
in her crib in the corner. I felt everything in
that place, just as though it's taking place, And I
rearranged the structure of my mind and felt soundlessly in
that safe. At four o'clock in the morning, there comes

(12:15):
a sheet of paper before my eyes, and a hand
from hair down with a pain in its hand, and
the paint scratched out the word disapproved, and it wrote
in a bold script approved. And then I heard the
words that's which I have done. I have done do nothing.

(12:42):
Then I woke. It was too early to disturb the
twenty five other fellows sleeping there. I waited into the
very first moment that I could leave that room, and
went down to the latrine and shaved and bathed early,
and came up filled with the glow that the whole
thing was done. I walked in that assumption for the

(13:06):
next nine days. Nine days later, the same colonel that
disapproved my request called me in. If you closed the door,
got it, closed the door, He said, take a seat,
And I never asked me to take a seat in
his presence. Before I was a private. You always stood
in his presence to take a seat. And then he

(13:27):
gave me all the reasons in the world why I
should still be in the army, If you still want
to get out, I said, yes, sir, give me another reason,
still want to get out? Then yes, sir, another one.
When he exhausted all the reasons why I should be
in the army, and I'm still saying yes, sir, if

(13:48):
all right, bring me another application and have your captain
sign it, which I did that day, I was honorably
discharged and out of the army. I didn't run away.
I was honorably discharged. When vision breaks forth into speech,

(14:08):
the presence of deity is there, and who can oppose God?
Just that which I have done, I have done do nothing,
so he thought. He initiated the urge to let me
go free. I looked into the perfect law, the law
of liberty, and I persevered in that law. And he

(14:34):
paid his spot for I rearranged the structure of my mind.
I was convinced I wanted out. I didn't ask anyone's permission.
I did not discust it with one as that why
I should want out. When seventeen million men are being
drafted to numberless girls to make a tremendous effort against

(14:58):
this monster's thing that was in your I still wanted out.
I did not take anyone into my confidence as to
why I wanted out. I had my thirteen weeks basic training,
and when I came out, they gave me my citizen
papers and became I could have been back in nineteen

(15:20):
twenty two. I could have been an American, but I
just didn't have the time or the urge to get
around to it to become a citizen. So I drifted
on and drifted on and drifted on, and finally, after
this little episode, that's why I went into the Army,
or I would still be drifting through and being a

(15:41):
citizen of Britain. But now I am an American by adoption,
and they gave it to me because I did fulfill
our thirteen week training course in the American Army. So
I tell you I know from experience how true this
statement in James is. Read it carefully. The doers of

(16:06):
the word are not hearers away deceiving yourself. For he
who is a hearer of the word and not a duo,
he is like one who looks into who looks into
the mirror, and she is his natural face. And then
he goes away and at once forgets what he looks like.

(16:31):
But he who is a doer. He looks into the
perfect law, the law of liberty and perseverance, And when
he does that, he is blessed in his doing. That
is acting making the thing become alive within you. Now,

(16:53):
he tells us in the same chapter, faith without word
works is dead, as the body apart from the spirit
is dead. So faith without works is dead. He is

(17:14):
not proposing that I suffer you. Works for faith. Works
are the evidence whether the faith I profess is alive
or dead. I say I believe the story of Scripture, Well,
then if you believe it, then do it should whatever

(17:34):
you desire, believe, you have received and you shall. What
if I really believe that, I can say I believe
by quoting the Apostles Creed. That's not believe, going to
church and general effecting before some men may little cross,
that's not scripture. Will you really believe the doctrines, the

(17:58):
teachings of Scripture, not the traditions of men, not the rituals,
not the outer ceremonies, but the teachings of Scripture. When
you pray, believe that you have received, and you will,
and all things are possible to him who believes. But
do I believe that will then believe it. If I

(18:20):
really believe I am out of the army, what and
where would I be? Will I will be at home
in my place one thousand miles away on Washington Square.
If I look through the window, I will see the
Holly apartments. If I look to the left, I will
see Washington Square. If I look to the right, I

(18:41):
will see six Avenue. It's now called the Avenue of
the Americas. But then and still is to me raised
as I was there, It's still six Avenue to me.
And then I will look at six after Well, I
did that that night. I saw six Avenue, I saw
Washington Square, and then I went through the entire apartment

(19:01):
and touch these objects with my imaginary hands. Now was
that rational? The world will say that was the most
irrational thing that one can do. So what is reason?
The office of reason is simply to extract well conclusions

(19:26):
from premises. Must my premises always be based upon the
evidence of my sentence? Must they always dictate what is
rational to me? For having done this and proved it
to be a fact? Reason doesn't mean to me what

(19:47):
it means to the world. Or there would sleep in
the army, And I wrote a friend of mine who
was a Freudigan and he practiced psychiape in New York City.
He was raped. He was an Englishman too, and he
was drafted, and he was off in Florida, a man
my age. And so when I got out, knowing exactly

(20:10):
what I did, I wrote him a detailed letter telling
him but I did and how to do it. No,
he was a Fludian, and that was something that didn't
make sense to him. To him, the whole thing was
centered in sects, not in this use of the imagination
for all. If he didn't answer my that out. I

(20:32):
got out in nineteen forty three, in the spring, in
the month of April, or was it March, March or
April of nineteen forty three. He drafted me November the nineteenth,
nineteen forty two, and I got out in March nineteen
forty three, when the war was over and all the
other follows were being discharged. He was discharged, and he

(20:57):
said to me Askeward, You know, Neville, I love to
come to your lectures and to hear you, because it's interesting,
it's fairing. You turn my daily braid into the substance
of faaring. But while I listen to you know what
I do. I put my feet right down into the
carpet and I hold on to the sides of the

(21:17):
chair to keep my sense of the reality and the
profundity of things. But he kept on holding his little
cops in the army for another three years because he
couldn't let go and put himself where he wanted to be.
So I am telling you how it's done. I am

(21:39):
telling you how it's done from my own experience. But
my perceptions are not necessarily bunded by organs of perception.
I perceive more than saints, no matter how acute they are,
could discover. My senses couldn't discover what I am seeing.

(22:01):
Only in my imagination could it be done. I'm seeing
the Holly apartments, I am seeing sixth Avenue, I am
seeing Union Square. I am seeing the bait, my wife,
my child. I hadn't seen them in three months, but
they're all there. I didn't bring sex into it. No,

(22:22):
I didn't go to bed with her there. She was
the girl I loved. She wasn't her own bath, and
I am my own bath. We have to invente. And
my little girl was then just over a yale. She
was born in not quite a year. She's born in
June of nineteen forty two, and this was not yet
June of nineteen forty three, so she was not yet

(22:44):
a year. Here's my sweet little child, Vicky in her bit.
And I walked through the entire thing and touched all
the objects and felt them so normal and so natural.
Came back to my bait and slept in it. If
anyone were sensitive in that room to see me sleeping there,

(23:04):
I was so natural to myself to a see me
actually sleeping there. And then the next day he had
a change of mine, but he couldn't act upon it.
He was resisting that change. But that which I have done,
I have done do nothing. So he resisted it for
nine days and then he called me in and told

(23:26):
me to bring a new application, which I did, and
that day I was out. So I tell you how
it works. This is the most practical law in the world.
He looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty.
For does that liberate you? If you look into the

(23:47):
law of liberty? Then what are you now? The man
the woman you really want to be? But then you're imprisoned.
Though you're not behind bars, you are imprisoned by your
present concept, not behind guards. You will to go home
tonight and sleep as the woman, as the man you
really don't want to be. So you are in prison

(24:07):
now looking to the perfect law, the law of liberty.
I'm persevere you not only be a hearer of what
to do, do it, and you will be blessed in
the doing. That's what Scripto teaches. Go home and read it.
I am not misquoting. I am quoting accurately from the

(24:30):
Epistle of James in the New Testament. And this is
the story that I'm trying to tell every one in
the world. He said, I am not in prison. No,
you're not in prison, not perfectly, but you are in prison.
You may today need money, and you say offer. I'm
still not like the fellows who are behind in the

(24:53):
sing sing All right, you're not behind jail doors, but
you are still behind, behind rate behind in this and
the Dunning notes from all the templations where you charge,
you are behind bars. You can't seem to find the
necessary sum to pay them. All right, look into the
perfect law of liberty. That's the perfect law. Well, how

(25:16):
do I do it? Rearrange the structure of your mind?
But the magnetized piece of steel does not differ in
substance from the magnetize, only the arrangement of its molecules.
And then one lives up enormous ways. When it's completely
one pointed, and all these molecules face one direction, it's
a powerhouse. The other it's cant. So let not the

(25:39):
double minded man thinks that he will in any way
received from the Lord. You're told the same first chapter.
If the double minded man comes, who is unstable in
all his ways, let he not think you receive anything
from the Lord. What can you give a man who
does know what he wants. I've gone into a restaurant

(26:03):
just to prove this principle, sat down, said to the waiter,
what would you like for a tip? And he's embarrassed.
I said to my friend, I'll give him body once
in reason, I'm not going to give him any hundred
dollars bills, but i'll give him if he shaid me
a five dollar bill. It did in order that which
warranted a five dollar bills. And he was embarrassed and

(26:24):
embarrassed and embarrassed, and all he expected was repective. What
he got. He just didn't know. He had no concept
of putting something because he didn't know it, So how
could you put it to the test. So I am
telling you you rearrange the structure of your mind. That's
all you do. It doesn't differ from Einstein's mind. It's

(26:47):
only one mind. There's only one God, There's only one Lord.
Listen to it. One body, one spirit, one hope, one Lord,
one face, one baptism, one God and Father of us all,
who is above all, through all and in all. If

(27:08):
he's in you, that's the same one with the one body.
The one's biddy. So I'm not using a different mind.
It's the same mind, but differently arranged. Go into one
room and you see that someone doesn't know what to
do with their furniture. Bring somebody who knows how to
set a room. Come back an hour later after she's

(27:32):
through with it, and you will think you're in the
entirely different homes. My wife used to pull that on
me all the time. I come home and think I've
stopped into the I just stepped into the entirely strange apartment,
and wonder if I'm really at home and she is
hiding some other place. She completely rearranged the structure, the furniture.

(27:55):
It looked like an entirely different home. But she had
that sense how to do it, and so she did it.
So with what you have, all you need is exactly
what you have. For you have the mind of God.
It's not a different mind, the same mind. And you
simply rearrange the mind by a mareor assumption. What would

(28:17):
the feeling be like? Would it true that I am
now the man that I want to be, now the
woman that I want to be? But it's added but
perseveror you must persevere in it. If I call you
now and you answer one thing, well, will you respond
an hour later to the same call, Then, if you persevere,

(28:38):
you will. If now an hour later you think of
yourself as you now, when you dare to assume that
you are now the man that you want to be?
An hour later, are you still assuming that state? If
you're not, you're not persevering it. You are the hero
who looks into the mirror with its natural pace. He

(28:58):
saw it, then you went to way and at once
forgot what he looked like. So if one hour from
now you're not still assuming that you are the man
that you want to be, you're forgotten. You are the
hearer and not the doer, and you want this. Of
the vast difference between being a hearer and being a doer,

(29:19):
the duer acts. God only acts, and is in existing
beings or men. So bear in mind that your wonderful
world is not bunded by your senses. You perceive far,
far more than your sense, no matter how cute it is,

(29:40):
could discover. Your senses can't discover what now you're capable of.
Assuming that you are, your senses, dictate what reason will allow,
and your reason your senses are bummed together, go beyond it.
For what you now know from experience, what you know
from the past will not be what you will know

(30:02):
when you know more than you now know. But having
done it and proven it, I know more than I
did when I was bumped it by my senses. When
I couldn't get out of a certain island on time
to meet a commitment in Milwaukee, I knew what I
did in the army. I simply applied the identical things,
and I got out. When it was a long, long

(30:24):
waiting list, thousands waiting for all the islands, and only
two little ships, not big ships, two small little ships,
one carrying out more than sixty odd passages and one
carrying in one hundred and twenty and thousands waiting. And
they only came once a month into the island, one
every thirty two days, and one every three and a

(30:46):
half weeks. How long would it take to get them
all out? I didn't ask anyone a favor, didn't ask
my brother, who was a powerful businessman in the island,
who criticized for not arranging passage back to America when
I left America. But that's the place where you should

(31:06):
have done it. That's the powerhouse of the world, New
York City. That's where all these things are done. And
you dare to leave New York City when you could
arrange a round trip and you come here on a
one way ticket. Well, I didn't ask any favors of
him or any of any member of the family. I
simply did exactly what I did in the army, and

(31:26):
in twenty four hours I was called by the alcohol
company and given my passage. There were thousands who were waiting.
Is my concern why she did it or why someone
else didn't get it in preference to mime and my
name is done at the very bottom. I wasn't at

(31:47):
the top. I'm at the bottom of the list. It
isn't my concern. I look into the perfect law, the
law of liberty, and I perseveyed. I sat in a
chair in my hotel room. And there I sat in
the chair, and assume I am next to the boat.

(32:08):
I'm climbing up the gang plank. Just before we had
a deep water harbor, so we had to go off
to see them, maybe a half mile or a mile
to see on a little tender, and then take the
gang plank and go up to the ship. So I
felt myself bobbing as you would on the ocean, and
then moving up the gang plank. I could smell the

(32:28):
rawness of the scene. Got up to the top. My
mine wanted. I brought it back to them again and
did it all over again. They wanted brought it back
them again, kept on doing it over and over, until
finally I did it. I felt some deleep sitting in
the chair in the act of doing. Next day, Alcore

(32:50):
calls me and gives me my passage for my wife
and my little girl. So I'm telling you from experience
it doesn't fail. But we must not simply be hearers
of the word. We must be doers of the world.
For if you are a hero and not a doer,
you deceive yourself, he tells you. For we are the

(33:11):
opera and power. This law doesn't operate itself. It doesn't
care if you're good, bad, or indifferent. Look around the world.
Who would think that tonight someone serving life sentence in
our jail is the same mind that sits in the
White House. Who would think the one who sits now

(33:33):
in the Vatican, that mind of the Pope is the
same mind? Or the one who is grubbling on his
belly finally kiss his hand. So on Sunday there'll be
Palm Sunday, and they do all these things on Palm Sunday,
the Holy Palms, and then comes Friday, then comes Sunday,

(33:58):
and all this will go on and have all the
show hapular show. And he who isn't being born on
the backs of strong strapping men, does not differ from
those who are his slaves burying him, the same mind.
But they have rearranged their mind to be slaves, and
he has arranged his mind to be the father, to

(34:20):
be father, the great Pope. Same mind. There is only
one mind in the world. They aren't two minds. That's
why I can tell you. I know that when he
stands before you, he will know you as his father,
and you will know him as your son. And because

(34:42):
I know him as my son? Are we not one mind?
Are we not one being? When the same being who
called you father will one day call you for Are
we not the same parlor, the same mind, the same spirit,
the same body, without loss of identity. So I'm telling

(35:05):
you to I try it. Try it every moment of time.
You know tonight what you want to be. I don't
care what you want to be. It's simply a rearrangement
of the mind. And you've rearranged the mind, not through
any study, in any effort. It's simply a mere assumption.
What do I want to be? Get it clear in

(35:28):
my mind's eye. Well, then assume that I am it.
Listen to the words in the book of Joel. Let
the weak man say I am strong. Let the weak
man say I am strong. That's in the book of Joel.

(35:50):
Jehovah God, that's what the word would mean. Joel. You
call upon when you are dumb, to assume that you
are exactly what you are to be. Not done because
you don't want to be there. You want to be
as free as the wind, or assume that you are.
May I tell you in a way that no one
knows you'll become it, but you must persevere. And the

(36:13):
word perseverance is true. If I don't believe it, for
then one second later I've turned back to my former
state and become once more lot to wipe the pillar
of salt. Salt is a preservative. In the old days,
the only way to preserve something is to salt it.

(36:33):
Not so long though. When I was a little boy,
we caught fish, an enormous quantity of fish because we
didn't have these enormous feats catching our fish. So we
had fish to burn, literally burn. If they didn't get
them get in before say three o'clock in the afternoon,
what did they have. They could either put it under

(36:55):
the dumb heap and make dumb out of it, or
cleaned it up and salt it. So they cleaned it
up and salted it. It would keep indefinitely. For we
had no refrigeration, So you salted the fish. Now we
could have salt fly and fish if you wanted it
that way. But first they were not consumed by sundown

(37:19):
was discarded, use it for bait the next day, or
use it in the dunkey, fertilize the fields with it.
So salt is a preservative. So when lots of while
was turned to salt, he turned back and went back
to her former state. And that's all that it means.
You look back and became a pillar of salt. You

(37:41):
turned back to the state you said you would leave
behind you, and looking back, you were salted. You were
preserved in it. So turn away from what you really
want to be, turn back, you're going to be salted
in it. So I asked you to leave what you
are unless you like what you are the portion do
what you are today that you like, all right, wonderful,

(38:03):
there are other portions that you do not like. Well,
you don't have to give up everything in your living room,
and you rearrange the structure of it. Certain pieces it
will keep. You may change this location, but you'll keep it.
The same thing is true with the structive of the mind.
You keep certain things and you let other things go.
Take trains in your will who are not doing well,

(38:23):
rearrange them in your mind, die and they're doing well.
So put that part of the structure in your mind's eye,
rearrange the entire structure, and dare to assume that it's true,
and walk in that assumption. And that assumption, though at
the moment is denied by reason and denied by your senses,
if you persevere in it, it will harden. In the fact.

(38:46):
This is the law of scripture that I came not
to abolish, but to fulfill the Jewish law and the
Jewish prophets. For there was no other scripture in the
first century but the Jewish scriptions. So the word jew
is not placed before it to qualify it, but the

(39:07):
only scripture that he knew. He came to fulfill the
Jewish law. He reinterpreted the law psychologically and showed them
exactly how it's done. So go out and do not
abolish anything. Simply fulfill it. Fulfill the law, and fulfill

(39:28):
the prophets. The profits when they're fulfilled. That's done by
sure grace that comes that comes by profits, and no
one's going to stop it. May I tell you, but
you could go on living in a state that you
do not wish this world. But in spite of that,
you will still receive the promise because it isn't given

(39:51):
to the one who is rich, and deny the one
who is poor? But why remain poor? And bat your
head out more in un and nie the inevitable blows
in this world. I hope you do not reach money
for the sake of money, But if you need money,
will then apply this law. What would the feeling be

(40:11):
like if it were true that I was now free
of this pressure? Free of me? Dare to assume that
you are, and then persist in that assumption, and that
assumption will harden into reality. So this is my lesson tonight.
I think you have found it a very practical one.

(40:34):
But I must remind you you can either be the
hearer of what you hear tonight and not the doo.
It is my hope that you will be the duo
of what you heard tonight. That when you leave here,
you leave here in the assumption not waiting till you
get home. Leave here in the assumption that you are
already the man the woman that you want to be.
And then between here and home, think of the man

(40:58):
that you have assumed that you are, and that assumption
spring in your mind constantly. You are that man. Go
to bed in that assumption maybe this night at the
deed with me in the army, something will come and
a voice will speak, And when vision breaks forth into speech,
the presence of deity is assured. And maybe you will

(41:18):
have confirmation that what you have dared to assume is
I know, in my case it came that way. But
it will come whether it breaks forth into speech or not,
if you persist in the assumption
