being unaware of the mental
law of one's life. A man may be
learned c o n c e r n i n g those
things which he has discovered,
but if he lacks understanding
of his own nature, some part of
his life will carry a tinge of gray
proportionate to that lack. The
great majority of people practice this gray magic. They unconsciously go through life
sometimes happy, sometimes
gloomy producing haphazardly the results those moods
create. Most of what man creates is unintentional. H e does

concentration and meditation.
Simply stated, concentration is

imagination, visualization, and

A s t o n i s h i n g , isn't it?
Changes our whole conception
of the man. A n d yet I don't
know why it should, unless we
have been accepting the outward expression on the screen
as the reality, not realizing that
the picture of the man was
merely an image, which we had
t r a n s p o s e d i n t o w h a t we
thought was the real person.
I know of an actor who portrays drunk scenes to the point
of perfection, where you have a
feeling of revolting disgust for
the man. The thought occurs
that it was too perfect to be
merely actingthat it appeared
too realistic not to have been
the real thing. You feel that the
man must be pretty much of a
drunkard, and was probably
"tight" during the filming of
that particular scene. If the real
truth were known, the actor
would be seen in a new light.

disapprovingly as we slipped
into the office a bit late; the exasperating salesgirl who was annoyed over seeming trifles; the
hurried waitress who seemed to
disregard us entirely. These
may be but a few of your more
recent experiences; yet the disregard for courtesy, the lack of
consideration which you may
encounter, is not the True Self
expressing. These actions and
mouthings are merely passing
portrayals on the screen of the
visible self.
This is intellectually acceptable. However, to use this Principle for greater happiness, for
a fuller understanding of our
fellow man, and a realization of
our own at-one-ment with God,
the mere acceptance is not
enough. As Emest Holmes so
aptly expressed it, This acceptance must become a subjective
embodiment, of which the intellect furnishes but a mental
picture.
Now we understand what it
means to vision the Inner Man
the True Man of God. Now
we realize that we should not
look at the outward manifestation alone. W e should look
through this outer shell and be-

hold the Real Person, the perfect image and likeness of God.
And we should look within ourselves, remove our own outer
shell, and find true wholeness,
complete oneness, with Infinite
Omnipresence and Omnipotence.
It is a wonderful attainment
to be able to recognize our
varied experiences as scenes
passing before our eyes on the
screen of our existence. However, let us not make the error
of looking upon these scenes as
though they were following an
unswervable groove, or rut. Let
us instead realize that they are

When a beginner in
metaphysics starts on
the G o l d e n P a t h , he hears
much of the need of meditation. Suddenly the thing he
does naturally, normally, all the
time, assumes a technicality.
Just how does one go about
m e d i t a t i n g on mental and
spiritual ideas?
H a v i n g heard Ernest
Holmes, speaking informally
before a small gathering, say
that he considered the statement he uses in all his radio
broadcasting so effective that
he would continue to use it as
long as he lived, I found myself repeating the f a m i l i a r
words over and over: "There
is a Power for Good in the universe and I can use it."
In the dark of the two-hour
bus ride homeward the words
came involuntarily to mind,
45
SCIENCE
OF
MIND
IGNORANTLY
OR
INTELLIGENTLY?
But if we have chosen a work big enough to merge ourselves within it,
we have been, and will continue to be, able to remain steadfast as did
Nehemiah an engineer, a man of prayer and a dynamo of action
who, when taunted by the obstructionists (who had no faith in his ability
to re-build the wall of Jerusalem), to all their jeers, their admonitions,
their pleas gave one answer: / am doing a great work so that I cannot
come down. (The wall was completed and the gates hung in fifty-two
days!)
God grant this has been, and will continue to be, our response when
we arc tempted to turn aside (from the great work we have laid out for
ourselves) to a petty, selfish gain! As Dr. Winfred Ernest Garrison, of
the University of Chicago, once said: "It is not hard for even the feeblest
of us, in moments of his best impulses, to think high thoughts and plan
heroic enterprises and set for himself admirable standards of character
and achievements; but it is only the disciplined soul that can maintain in
action the standards which he himself has set up in moments of contemplation."
It is true, we do not know whither we are going. That has always been
true; never have we known what a day was to bring forth. But we must
not permit ourselves to feel that life is done when we run upon a "Road
Closed" sign. There are many detours and all of them eventually reach a
highway. We may not be able to choose the particular mode of selfexpression we have desired for ourselves, but we can always know that
we are not permanently sidetracked. Let us emulate the worthy example
given us in First Samuel: David encouraged himself in his God. This is
not merely the priming of our pumps by self-stimulation; it is the rebuilding of our very life's blood stream. As in David's day, so in ours, our
hearts must be fired by enduring purposes and our faith must rest in a
God Who guarantees the triumph of spiritual values. Let us go forward
the balance of this year filled with that faith which Sherwood Eddy speaks
of as " . . . not the ability to believe something in spite of the evidence,
but the ability to dare something in spite of the consequences."

INSPIRATION
In bis law doth be meditate day and night. Psalm 1:2
By meditating on our spiritual reality, we receive inspiration from the One Source the One M i n d . Inspiration
means literally to take in the very presence of the holy Spirit.
The Latin word is used also to denote breathing. I f we remember that with every breath we draw, we partake of H i s
H o l y Spirit, we shall never again suffer difficulties of breathing. In addition, there is the life principle which the Orient
calls prana. This means to them the Life Principle Itselfthe
very Presence of G o d . Thus we in-spire. T h e Greek word
enthusiasm similarly means to be filled with the presence of
G o d . T o be enthusiastic, or to be inspired, is to act from within, moved upon by something greater than ourselves.
TREATMENT
I consciously make myself receptive for the One M i n d to
use at Its best. It can desire only good for me, for It is Good,
Itself. From this Source originate a l l good ideas, a l l constructive thoughts, all active impulses. A s I receive these d i vine, inspired ideas, so shall I act, so shall my habits be
formed. As my habits are, so shall my character be. M y character makes my destiny. I w i l l be still and know that I A m

life, and as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. I think, therefore, on the Truth that I am filled with the presence of G o d ;
and I renew that inspiration with every breath I draw.

Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy
name. Psalm 103:1
The heart that is filled with praise is too f u l l to admit negative thoughts into the consciousness. W h e n we remember our
blessings and thank G o d for them, we cannot be thinking of
lack or limitation. W e are too f u l l of good thoughts to utter
evil. N o matter what experience appears, it reveals some
good for everything that happens to us must happen
through us. From each moment, I distill some added essence
of wisdom. I view sorrow as that which discloses compassion
I view seeming failure as that which awakens my consciousness to patience and perseverance. I open my mind to
a new realization of perfection in all my experiences.
TREATMENT
The mind of man reflects the M i n d of G o d . . . and out of
the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks. I speak of eternal
goodness throughout the universe, for the M i n d of G o d contemplates goodness eternally. Beholding the allness of Good,
I see the light upon every pathway, and every experience
shows forth its harmony with divine poise and power. I know
that " a l l things work together for good to them that love
G o d . " Therefore I declare at all times that Truth is all. G o o d
is a l l ; there is no evil. The mind of G o d is the only M i n d
expressing in me, through me, for me, always. It manifests as
this life which is recognized as my own my own I A M

SELFLESSNESS
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Matthew 5:8
Let us dare to examine this passage, which has been interpreted to mean "chastity of conduct," and read it with
what was more likely the intent: "single-minded." Blessed
are the single-minded, who have not adulterated the truth
by worshipping Good and E v i l G o d and Mammon. T h e
double-minded man is unstable in all his ways; he is like the
waves of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. There is no
stability in him. But those who put their reliance on the one
Power have built their house on a Rock; it shall be established; it shall not be moved. Purity of motive is the thing!
Even the law takes cognizance of this. It is for me to give my
f u l l attention to the singleness of Power . . . the oneness of
G o d . . . my unity with the Father. This is the abiding security.
Infinite Goodness, Divine Love, is the supreme authority.
TREATMENT
I believe i n one G o d Father of us all who is above
all, in all. It is H e That hath made us, and not we ourselves.
W e are H i s people all men are brothers. I follow the
True course, giving my allegiance to holiness. I acknowledge
Good as the supreme law of the universe, and M i n d as the
creator of all that is real. The world of form is the divine
manifestation of infinity diversifying as a multitude of ideas.
I put my trust in the power of Light, for the Light shineth
all the time. M y intentions and motives I bring into the
Light I am single-minded. I bear allegiance to G o d , and
live in Good.

COURAGE
Be of good courage and be shall strengthen thine heart. Psalm 27:14
TREATMENT
I accept the fact that the Kingdom of Heaven is already
within me. Harmonious consciousness is my assurance, my
courage. I make these affirmations my Truth i n every moment of living. I trust in the Lord. G o d is my refuge and my
fortress. H e does cover me with his protectiveness, as a
mother hen covers her brood with her wings. This truth is
my shield and buckler. The good thoughts of G o d are as
angels keeping me in a l l my ways, and I am of good courage.
A l l is well.

OPULENCE
Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. Proverbs 16:3
When we commit our way unto the Lord, and trust also
in H i m as the worker of unalterable laws, H e does "bring it
to pass." There are no failures i n divine M i n d , no mistakes
with the Almighty. They that seek the L o r d shall not want
any good thing. Let us be strong, then, and of good courage,
for the Lord our G o d still gives us aid. Our faith is the building material from which we erect our blessings. It is the preliminary assurance i n our consciousness that the desires of
our heart shall be fulfilled. Since everything i n the world of
form has come from the same invisible Source, faith is the
actual, fundamental experience that brings the manifestation, the preliminary evidence of the unseen becoming visible.
TREATMENT
I acknowledge my unfailing spiritual resources at all times
. . . my constant access to the one Source of Supply . . . my
willingness to pay . . . my honesty of purpose . . . my faith i n
God's ever-present help, and my expectation of Good. These
are my answer to apparent lack my sure currency stamped
with God's image, better than gold. M y daily supply has
already been abundantly provided. A n unending current
of divine inspirations, satisfying experiences, and good
thoughts sustain me always. I do not hoard yesterday's measure of supply, nor become anxious about tomorrow's. Sufficient unto this day is the greatest I can imagine, and my ability to make use of it. A l l that H e has . . . is M I N E .

EACH D A Y O F OCTOBER
This business of religion should always be a happy experience; not solemn or sour-faced. The word holiness derives
from the parent-word for wholeness and wholesomeness. W e
have been made whole, because we are one with the Maker.
This wholeness is our holiness. A s children of G o d , we are
members of the holy family, and there is royal blood in our
veins. K n o w i n g this more deeply than anyone else, Jesus became Master, Way-Shower, Truth-Teacher. N o man cometh
unto the Father but by the recognition of the I A M within
the real Self. T o understand this fully is to be filled with such
joy that the heart sings and, like David, we dance before
the Lord to express our ecstasy. It is of this joyousness we are
witnesses when we have experienced Cosmic Consciousness
oneness with the Creator and all creation.
TREATMENT
I w i l l sing praises unto my G o d , for he has heard my prayer, and does not leave me comfortless. This understanding
of my oneness with G o d saves me from all gloom and pain.
" A merry heart doeth good like a medicine," so I w i l l sing
unto the Lord a new song all the days of my life. I rest i n the
promises of joy, for I know that I dwell in the house of the
Lord in which every good thing is always present in opulent
abundance. I rejoice greatly in the abundance that is mine.
I cultivate, I invite, I meditate on the conditions of joy which
surround me like a benediction throughout every step of my
unfoldment. I rejoice and sing with God's joy.

Thank you for your acknowledgement of my request for help. At this time I
wish to express the thought that the progress in my physical health is almost unbelievable ! For some months I had suffered from a combination of gout, arthritis
and nerves so that I could not walk properly, sleep properly nor concentrate on
my work. My physician said it was the onset of age and little could be done but
I refused to believe that aa end had come to my business life and that I was to be
a chronic invalid. Thanks be to you and your healing prayers for my deliverance!
M . M . , Salzburg, Austria
I am writing concerning treatment for my sister who had lost use of her legs
and arms and was also an alcoholic. After six months in the hospital she is completely well, after the doctors at the hospital told her husband they had little hope
of her ever being mentally well again or to have the use of her limbs. The doctors
and nurses all claim it is a miracle she recovered. Of course none of them know,
not even my sister, that I placed her name in the care of the Healing Department
I know without a doubt it was through the Healing Department treating for
her so lovingly and knowing the Truth about her, that she has recovered so beautifully. My sister not knowing you were praying for her said that something had
happened to her that she feels born all over again, that she feels like she did when
she was a young girl. Now she says she does believe in God. Isn't that wonderful ?
I am so happy and thankful. I say thank you to you and I know you must know
how thankful I really am. God bless you all! I pray this Truth may spread and
spread.

Some time ago I requested your prayers for my little granddaughter for an
intestinal ailment. Now I am pleased to report that she is entirely healed, and
without surgery. Thank you so much for your wonderful work.

Has Helped Me
I have such a wonderful report to make to you. I just had a test of my eyes
and the doctor said they are better right now than they ever have been, and I do
not have to go back for another check for three months. I know they will be even
better then. Thank you so much for the wonderful work you have done for me.
God bless you all. Sincerely,
