 then  do not hesitate  to con-
tinue,  until  the Results  are there. Your  Application  to your  Presence  cannot  fail. It is Self-
Luminous,  Intelligent  Substance  which  goes  forth  at your
Call;  there  is nothing  to resist  and  there  is nothing  can  in-
terfere  with  That  Light  which  goes  forth. It will  dissolve
all unlike  Itself  as It goes  forth. It is the Power  of the
Universe. Therefore,  as you understand  It, and  as you make
your  Call  and  realize  why  It is not just  a Principle  of Life,
energy  and  action,  you  will  know  why  That  Light  cannot
be resisted. It is because  the Light  is Self-Conscious  Intelli-
gence—Self-Luminous  Intelligent  Substance. It is why,  Dear  People,  the most  terrific  viciousness  ever
focused  at two  human  beings,  has  been  focused  at these
Messengers,  for no reason  at all; but it does  not touch  them
nor interfere  with  This  Activity. This  is why  We sometimes
take up these  points  with  the Blessed  Students;  because  for
the people  who  try to injure  them,  it is a pitiful  thing. In-
dividuals  who  send  out  destructive  thoughts  and  feeling
will reap  them—every  one. The Messengers  never  wished  harm  to any  human  Be-
ing in their  lives  and  never  shall. They  love  and  bless  every
human  Being—even  those  who  criticize  and  condemn  them
and send  vicious  projections  at them. They  know  the Law
and they  are living  It; but  the unfortunate  human  Beings
who  will  not  believe  that,  will  have  to reap  their  vicious-
ness sent  out. They  are most  unfortunate  indeed,  for one DISCOURSE  VIII  205
day, they  will  understand  how  great  has been  their  mistake. This  is why  We take  these  things  up concerning  your  ac-
tivities  definitely  and  clearly,  so all may  understand,  if they
will. You  are soon  going  to have  to choose  whether  you  will
control  your  feeling  or not. That  is why  I say this,  so pos-
itively. Do not ever  look  around  and  blame  any  one else  for
anything. You  are the only  person  who  is concerned. If a
mistake  seems  to be made,  call  the Presence  into  action  to
correct  it and  take  your  mind  off it. Then  you  will  be Free.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>
Q: Why does the body lay helpless?,
A: Because the Life Stream has withdrawn, and the human form is dependent on the outer world.

 Later, in 1921,
the Nobel Prize winning physio logist Otto Loewi determined its functional
significance. Loewi found that activating the vagus nerve reduced heart
rate.1 He did this by isolating the heart of a frog and stimulating the vagus
nerve to release something he called “Vagusstuf f.” This substance, later
identified as acetylcholine, caused the frog’ s heart to slow, replicating
relaxation, the reaction to a nonthreatening environment—or the rest-and-
digest state. The implications of this are huge. It means that stimulating the
vagus nerve can activate the PNS, subduing or balancing out the fight-or -
flight reaction of the SNS. This “Vagusstuf f” (ACh) released by the vagus nerve is a
neurotransmitter—a chemical messenger released by nerve cells to send
messages to other cells. This neurotransmitter is found in all motor neurons,
where it stimulates smooth muscles to contract, slows the heart rate, and
dilates the blood vessels. It is also present in many brain neuro ns where it
has a role in vital mental processes such as cognition and mem ory. Severe
depletion of acetylcholine has been associated with conditions such as
Alzheimer ’s.12
STRESS, INFLAMMA TION, AND ILLNESS
From a health perspective, if we define stress as a disruption of
homeostasis, inflammation often begins as the body’ s natural response to
stress. What’s more, chronic, low-grade inflammation has been proven to
indicate an overactive fight-or -flight response.10 It makes sense, therefore,
to deduce that inhibiting the fight-or-flight reaction (as the ACh released by
the vagus nerve does) could reduce inflammation. Inflammation is a defense mechanism triggered by injury or infection. It
is at the extreme  end of the spectrum that ranges from homeosta sis to stress
response to inflammatory response.10 It combines different immune
mechanisms that work to neutr alize invading pathogens such as bacteria
and viruses, repair injured tissues, and heal wounds. However, when out of
balance, inflamm ation plays a key role in the development and persistence
of many diseases. It can be triggered by extreme internal imbalances or byexternal challen ges that disturb homeostasis. After a stressor occurs, the
inflammatory response kicks in. While modern life has its benefits, including a much longer life span,13
advanced technology, and home  grocery deliveries, the nature of stress has
changed dramat ically. When stress is severe and prolonged, it causes the
body to compensate, physiologically and behaviorally, to maintain
homeostasis. Long term, this can put an unsustainable load on the body’ s
systems. There is increasing evidence that chronic stress increases the risk of
both physical and mental health disorders. It can play a critical role in the
onset and progress of stress-rela ted illness, including diseases of the heart,
digestive system, brain, and many forms of cancer. Chronic stressors are
known to suppress immune function. In fact, while not yet fully understood,
studies show that stress is a common risk factor in 75% to 90% of human
diseases.13 That’ s nearly all of them. Scientists at Carnegie Mellon University discovered a direct
relationship betw een chronic mental stress, the body’ s inability to regulate
inflammation, and the progression of disease.14 Their study, which used the
common cold as a model, found that prolonged stress decrease s the body’ s
sensitivity to the stress hormon e cortisol in such a way that the immune
cells become insensitive to it. This negatively affects the ability of cortisol
to regulate inflammation. Inflam mation gets out of control, and disease sets
in. The research demonstrated that the symptoms of a cold are not actually
caused by the virus. They are a side effect of the body’ s inflammatory
response, which is designed to fight infection. People who suf fer most when
they have a cold don’t have “Man Flu”—they are actually experiencing a
more extreme inflammatory reaction. The study also confirmed that stress led to the immune cells being less
able to respond to signals that normally regulate inflammation. Participants
who were stressed were much more likely to develop colds when exposed
to the virus than those who weren’ t stressed, and those people also
produced more cytokines —the chemical messengers that trigger
inflammation. Because inflamm ation is pivotal in so many illnesses, this
offers a valuable  window into the impact that psychological stress can have
on health.VAGAL STIMULA TION AND THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
A clear connection between the nervous system and the immune system
was discovered by neurosur geon Kevin Tracey in 1998. In an experiment
on a rat, he investigated the idea that stimulating the vagus nerve could
alleviate harmful inflammation.4 He found that the nervous system could be
used almost like a computer to trigger commands that stop a problem in its
tracks. The results of his expe riment were so unexpected that Tracey’ s
colleagues were apparently in the corridor outside his lab, running bets
against his theor y even as he was in the middle of testing it!4 Further trials
confirmed Tracey’ s findings. Using electronic implants to stimulate the
vagus nerve in humans, he produced a dramatic reduction and even
remission in rheumatoid arthriti s, a condition with no known cure.15 This
helped illuminate the vagal system’ s close interrelationship with the
inflammatory system. The first steps of an inflammatory reaction involve the release of those
pro-inflammatory chemicals called cytokines.8 When the body produces too
many cytokines,  they can cause more damage than the invading  pathogens. For exam ple, in sepsis, the body’s own immune reaction can cause tissue
injury, dangerously low blood pressure, and even death. Chronic
inflammation can also feature in many diseases where no infection or injury
is present. In obesity, for examp le, an overload of storage in fat cells leads
to a stress response that causes the release of inflammatory cytokines.10
The conversatio n between the immune system and the brain that
moderates this inflammatory response relies, in part, on the vagus nerve,
which, in turn, is important due to the anti-inflammatory role of
Vagusstuf f/ACh. Crucially, ACh, the neurotransmitter secreted by the vagus
nerve, blocks the release of many of the pro-inflammatory cytokines. In
studies of diseases characterized by an excessive immune reaction,
including sepsis and pancreatiti s, vagus nerve stimulation was found to be
sufficient to block cytokine activity. When the vagus nerve is stimulated
electronically, the body’ s level of inflammatory cytokines decreases.16
As it turns out, the breath also provides a (natural) gateway to influence
the vagu s nerve and the ANS— through the role of carbon dioxide (CO 2)
levels in mainta ining the body’ s acid-base balance.17 One of the functionsof breath ing is to regulate the level of blood CO2 to maintain the blood’ s
acid balance (or pH). When levels of CO2 in the blood are too high, over
time, CO2 diffuses  into the red blood cells as carbonic acid, making the
blood too acidic, a condition called acidosis. When CO2 levels are too low,
respiratory alkalosis  occurs. Both acidosis and alkalosis are serious,
potentially life-t hreatening in their acute forms and damaging to health if
they persist long term. Therefore, the proper management of CO2 through
the breath is crucial. When blood pH changes even subtly, respiration will automatically
decrease or increase to compensate. One example of this is ketoacidosis, a
serious complication which can occur in diabetes. Ketoacidosis increases
acidity in the blood, stimulating corrective overbreathing. This fast, upper
chest breathing  is also commonly seen after the acidosis following
prolonged diarrhea and as a response to increased progesterone levels in
women. Conversely, alkalosis can be induced by vomiting or the use of
steroids or diuretics. The respiratory drive is then suppressed as the body
works to restore homeostasis.17 Information about blood CO2 is sent to the
respiratory center so that breathing can adjust via pathways involving the
vagus nerve. Therefore, breathing exercises to increase CO2 have a “vagotropic
effect.”18 CO 2 directly influences the sensitivit y of the vagus nerve’ s nuclei. This slows the pulse and improves the blood-filling of the heart.19 Increased
blood CO2 is the most likely mechanism  to enhance the vagus nerve’ s
slowing effect on the heart during exhalation. Increased CO2 (hypercapnia)
and exhalation are both vital in stimulating the vagus nerve.18
What’ s particularly exciting is that the effects of vagu s nerve
stimulation don’t stop when treatment is finished. They are ongoing. Over
time, the vagus system develops and maintains much greater resilience to
stressors. This long-term condit ioning of the vagus nerve, its functionality,
and ability to react to maintain homeostasis is known as vagal tone. This
vagal tone is key not just to reducing inflammatory responses but also to a
healthy and resilient functioning of the heart. VAGAL T ONE AND HE


 In women over 45, the condition
accounts for more days of hospitalization than diabetes, heart attack, or
breast cancer.64
It can cause repeated fractures of the vertebrae attached to the ribs,
which may lead to an excessive curve in the spine called thorac ic kyphosis. Each time one of these thoracic vertebrae is broken, lung capacity shrinks,
with a reductio n in forced vital capacity of 9%. While research hasexamined the link between osteoporosis and respiration in terms of this
impact on mechanical function, very little work has been done to measure
lung health in women with osteoporosis but no diagnosis of chronic
respiratory disease. The fact that women with osteoporosis commonly complain about
breathlessness prompted a 2018 study.63 Researchers theorized that the
fragility of the rib cage typical  of bone loss and osteoporosis  negatively
impacts respirat ory function by inhibiting the body’ s responses to normal
breathing stimuli, and thus affecting the blood acid-base balance. In simple
terms, the fragility of the ribs causes instinctive changes to breathing
patterns, designed to protect weakened bones. To test this theory, scientists assessed lung function, arterial blood gas
levels, central respiratory drive, and breathing patterns of wome n with bone
fragility who had no respiratory illness, kidney disease, or anem ia, and who
were not taking any medication known to alter blood pH. The women’ s
results were compared with a control group of women who did not have
bone fragility. The results showed for the first time that women with osteoporosis or
bone loss who had never smoked displayed disturbances in blood gas
exchange and changes in breathing patterns compared to age-matched
healthy women. The differences were not the result of anatomi cal changes
or other conditions such as cardiorespiratory disease. This is the first study
to look at gas exchange and breathing patterns where participants were
selected to minimize confounding factors, such as respiratory disease,
smoking, medications, and anatomical considerations. Lung volumes at rest and during  exercise were similar in all the women,
but the differences in breathing  patterns and gas exchange values between
women with or without bone fragility were significant, even though all the
values fell withi n normal reference ranges. Differences included  changes in
the ventilatory response to CO2, lower levels of arterial CO2 and oxygen, a
higher arterial to alveolar oxygen gradient suggesting defective diffusion of
oxygen from the blood to the lungs, and higher pH levels in the blood. Interestingly, bone loss has been linked to depressive symptoms. Postmenopausal women are at increased risk of depression at the same time
of life they are vulnerable to bone loss. While several studies have found arelationship between bone loss and depression, none have identified the
reason for the connection64. Osteoporosis and bone loss are often
undiagnosed until a woman suffers a fracture. However, a 2018 review
found that depressive symptom s are indicative of bone loss, may help
identify women with these conditions, and should trigger further
investigation of bone health.64
According to a 2019 paper, the biochemical and physiological effects of
psychological stress are recognized as contributing factors in
osteoporosis.65 Researchers looked at evidence pointing to stress-associated
mental health disorders as risk factors for osteoporosis. They suggested that
therapies to address psychological health could have benefits for bone-loss
patients. Resear ch into this topic is limited, but the studies that do exist
indicate that a personalized, multifaceted approach may improve patient
outcomes, particularly in those who are at a higher risk of developing
osteoporosis. A further link exists between osteoporosis and anxiety.66 A 2018  study
of 192 women found that those with high levels of anxiety were more prone
to osteoporosis-related fracture. Anxiety levels were connected to age,
depressive symptoms, years since menopause, and age at menopause. Scientists concluded that anxiety levels in postmenopausal women were
associated with,  and predictive of, reduced bone mineral density in the
lumbar spine and hips. While it is interesting to explore the connections between osteoporosis
and breathing, there is currently no research to indicate a direct link
between menopausal depression and anxiety, physical symptoms of bone
mineral loss, and breathing pattern disorders. However, it is the case that
addressing poor breathing can significantly improve quality of life by
reducing susceptibility to a huge range of mental and physical conditions. SLOW, DEEP BREA THING AND MENOP AUSE SYMPT OMS
It has been proven that slow, deep breathing can reduce certain hormonal
symptoms of menopause. A 2012 study explored the potential of
parasympathetic activation via slow, deep, diaphragmatic breathing toreduce the frequency and severity of hot flashes. Paced breathing can
reduce the stress response, relaxing the body and mind.67
For the study, scientists designed a nine-week, three-arm clinical trial in
which participants used an audio CD to practice guided paced breathing
exercises. One group practiced  at 6 breaths a minute once a day for 15
minutes. A second group practic ed the same exercise twice a day. The third
group practiced  14 breaths a minute for 10 minutes each day (normal
breathing). Near ly 80% of the women who completed the study found the
exercises easy to do and to fit into their daily routine. All of the participants
across the three groups reporte d reductions in hot flashes. Women who
practiced paced breathing twice  a day saw the biggest improvement (52%). Those who practiced 6 breaths a minute once a day saw a 42%
improvement and those practicing normal breathing experienced a 46%
improvement. The researchers concluded that paced breathing provides a
workable intervention that can be easily applied, and a larger study is
needed to fully assess the impact of the breathing exercises on hot flash
reduction. The ebook, Recognizing and Treating Breathing Disor ders, cites earlier
studies that demonstrate women  who are unable or “unwilling” to take HRT
have successfully used breathing retraining to reduce hot flashes.68,69
This research is backed up by an email I received from a client who
wrote that she had noticed significant benefits after implementing the
breathing techni ques. She said, “I have noticed a 90 to 100% decrease in
night sweats when I go to bed with my mouth taped, and this is after only
one week.” This points to better regulation of the autonomic nervous
system and corresponds with research that connects nocturnal sweating with
sleep apnea.70 According to the 2013 paper, incidence of night sweats is
three times higher in people with untreated sleep apnea than it is in the
general population. By using MyoT ape to ensure nasal breathing during
sleep, night sweats, apnea, and the associated insomnia may all be
alleviated. WHA T’S NEXT FOR FEMALE RESPIRA TORY HEAL TH?The scientific literature explor ing the role of female sex hormones in
respiratory health is complic ated and incomplete41. Women differ
significantly in hormonal profiles over the course of their lives, and
assessment of hormonal status is still a problem in that menopause cannot
be confi rmed until 12 months after it actually occurs. Even then, it is often
difficult to determine because of the use of hormonal medications. It is important that research begins to investigate hormonal influences
on respiratory health in sufficiently large studies. Future work needs to take
into account real life factors, such as smoking, which has an antiestrogen
effect. For instance, establishin g a clear connection between asthma and
HRT is likely to be heavily influenced by understanding the role of
smoking. There is enough evidence to be sure that sex hormones do influence
respiratory health and disease throughout the course of a woman’ s life. However, the understanding of this impact is limited. Some research covers asthma and lung function, but hardly any
investigates COPD. It seems fairly clear that women who reach puberty
early and have irregular periods also suffer with more asthma and poor
lower lung function. Asthma and respiratory symptoms are known to
fluctuate during the menstrual cycle, and this suggests the possibility of
therapeutic interventions. Changes in respiratory health around menopause are likely but very
understudied and difficult to measure due to HRT use. Better understanding
of these areas has great potential to improve treatment and outcomes for
women with asthma and COPD. The 2012 review of the literature on
respiratory healt h in women from  menarche to menopause concludes firmly
with this statement, “The era for investigating respiratory health in 2,000
men and 29 women has passed.”41

SUGAR, SUGAR
WHA T IS DIABETES? iabetes is a long-term disease that affects the way the body
metabolizes blood sugar or glucose, an important source of energy. Glucose comes from the food we eat, especially foods rich in
carbohydrates. During digestion, those carbohydrates are broken down into
simple sugars that enter the bloodstream via the intestines.1 When this
happens, beta cells in the panc reas secrete insulin, which is a hormone.2
Hormones are chemical messeng ers produced by the body and released into
the blood to trigger specific responses.


 e sad. It simply means that you are human. Regardless of what your feeling is, it simply is. There is no reason to run to food—or to anything else, for that matter—to
escape your feelings. Y our feelings are not your enemy but your friend. They always have something to teach you—even the tough ones. Sadness
handled gracefully will transform into peace, but only if you allow yourself
to feel it first. That is the core message of every great religious and spiritual
system in the world: that the story isn’ t over until the happy part. My daughter would get to the point of peaceful acceptance of Robbie’ s
death, and even joy at realizing she would one day see him again. But none
of that could have come about in a real and authentic way had she not first
allowed herself to feel the incredible grief of his untimely death. Another feeling the overeater commonly seeks to avoid is the simple
stress of living in the modern world. From running a household to running a
company, the stress of our modern existence has people running for
whatever form of anesthetization they can find. I eat because I feel
overwhelmed. The feeling of overwhelm is a natural consequence of failing
to recognize a divine hand holding all things together. If you feel you must control everything by yourself—if you don’ t feel
you can ask for God’ s help with the details—then no wonder you feel
absolutely overwhelmed. Y ou can’ t exactly hold up the stars in the sky, but
obviously something  does. So couldn’ t that something hold and harmonize
the circumstances of your life. In fact, the entire universe is held safely in God’ s hands. Planets revolve
around the sun, stars stay in the sky, cells divide, and embryos turn into
babies. Embryos don’ t exclaim, “I’m overwhelmed. I don’ t know how I’m
going to do this. I don’ t know how to cell-divide. ” The embryo doesn’ t
have  to know. An order bigger than the embryo moves it forward as part of
nature’ s blueprint. Any situation placed in divine hands is lifted to divine right order. If
looking at the stars in a starry sky doesn’ t overwhelm you, then neither
should your own circumstances. They are put together, held together, and
corrected when need be by the same loving force. But unless  you feel how overwhelmed you are—unless you can say,
“Wow, I’m feeling overwhelmed right now … I feel like this whole thing
could fall apart if I even closed my eyes for a second”—then you’re not in a
position to surrender it. Pray for the following miracle:
Dear God,
Please take this situation. I place it in Y our hands. Please handle all the details,
heal my mind of err or, and r eveal to me what Y ou would have me do. Amen
You need not carry the weight of the world either on your spirit or on
your body. You can “lighten up,” because the spirit is with you. Give over
your burdens, and journey lightly through the world. Every emotion, every situation, every relationship, and every issue can be
safely given to Divine Mind for upliftment. The purpose of this lesson is to
move your mind from its habit of suppressing your emotions—whatever
they are—to the comfort and peace of surrendering them to God. Reflection and Prayer
For this lesson, you need a God Box. It might be a box you make, a box you buy, or a box you previously used
for some other purpose. But as with other tools used in this course, this box
should be beautiful. It is something that will be put on the altar and given to
God. It is a container within which a miraculous process will occur. Now take a piece of paper and write down these sentences:
“Give Me your pain, and I will take it fr om you. ”
— G OD
“Place all of this in My hands. ”
— G OD
“Seek to for give, and you will have peace. ”
— G OD
“You ar e My perfect cr eation. Nothing you
have ever done or thought, and nothing anyone
else has done or thought, changes that fact. ”
— G OD
“Give Me your err ors, and I will corr ect them for you. ”— G OD
“You ar e deeply loved. Nothing you
do can change My love for you. ”
— G OD
Add to these sentences any scriptural or inspirational quotes that appeal
to you, including any ideas of your own, and put them in your God Box. Your job is to continually review your emotions, admit them, feel them,
write them down, and give them to Divine Mind. Use your journal pages to
specifically describe and explore an emotion, and then simply write: “Dear
God, I surrender this feeling to Y ou. ” Then go to your altar, and for every
emotion you surrender, open your God Box and blindly pick out a saying. It
will tell you what you need to hear. Now you’re ready to meditate. Y ou have surrendered your feelings, and
your mind will now be imbued with wisdom. This will bring you peace. Honoring your feelings on a regular basis, you will build the attitudinal
strength to carry you when an emotional storm arises in your subconscious
sea. Before you walk into the kitchen, you will name your emotion, even if
you have to scream it. Before you drive to the hambur ger stand, you will
say, “God, please help me,” even if at that moment you don’ t believe there
is a God. Before you drown in the deep and toxic waters of your craving,
you will feel your feelings and surrender them to God, even if you do so
with but a mustard seed of faith. Your God Box will help you. It will provide answers. And in time, you
will heal. Dear God,
I give to Y ou my anguish and my sorr ow. I feel so overwhelmed, dear God,
by my life and my compulsion. Take fr om me my craving, dear God,
for I cannot fight it and I feel so weak. Show me how to feel my feelings
and to surr ender them to Y ou. Restor e my spirit  and give me str ength. Thank Y ou, God. Amen

ALLOW THE PAIN
This lesson refers to the emotional detoxification process that
accompanies serious weight loss. At a certain point in your journey, feelings
that have been denied, repressed, and/or impacted within you begin rising
up in order to be released. In the last lesson, we discussed how feelings are not good or bad; they
simply are. But that doesn’ t mean they’re not painful. It’ s one thing to know
that suf fering is an inevitable part of the human journey, but it’ s another
thing altogether to learn how to cope with it. With any spiritual journey—and the journey to conscious weight loss is a
spiritual journey—things often seem to get worse before they get better. Love’ s light is being shone on many places heretofore not visible to your
conscious mind, revealing toxic feelings that were there already but cleverly
hidden. It’s all right if this part of your journey is not pleasant. Part of your
repatterning is learning to be with unpleasantness in a healthy way. The
mature and sober person knows that on some days things simply feel rotten,
and that is okay. You are learning to move through distress by simply being
with it, without the need to overeat or to act out in any other way. How could it not be unpleasant, having to refeel feelings that you’ve
been eating for years. Now having to confront them, deal with them, and
ultimately accept them feels like a fever within your soul. But a spiritual fever, like a physical fever, actually has a productive
function: it burns up disease. Think of your pain as a feverish burning up of
fear. As you heal physically, extreme fever can lead to delirium. And as you
heal spiritually, your fever can lead to delirium as well—a quiet delirium of
the soul. But this too shall pass. This lesson concerns itself with human despair and the consistency of the
body’ s cells. Man has looked beneath the surface of the skin for centuries,
probing the internal workings of the human body. During the last century,
science has developed the ability to view even the tiniest cells that make up
our physical tissue. Y et science has not yet discovered an explanation for
how emotional change produces physical change, and it is particularly blind
to the malleability of fat. In fact, there are many levels of understanding—even of our physical
selves—that science has not yet penetrated. An electron microscope reveals
the entire picture of our cellular system, but within the cells themselves,
there are storehouses of information not yet understood. For instance, there are tears and then there are tears. Some varieties are
toxic to the body, while others are healing. The distinction between the two
is not just an emotional dif ference but a physical one as well. Even
materially, there are aspects to tears—including functions that af fect the
workings of the brain—that have not yet been scientifically identified. Sometimes it’ s only through crying tears that need to be shed that we
dissolve the unhappiness that caused them. That is why suppr essing
unhappiness doesn’ t


ems from our power to become, and we are always a reflection of animage that we carry in our minds. W e can become anything we desire by
changing our psychological viewpoint. Clash of Opposites

To have a mind is a wondrous thing, but a responsible thing too. Rudyard
Kipling wrote, “There are forty million reasons for failure, but not a single
excuse.” And when we have come to a realization of the liberating and
creative nature of our minds, we soon are made aware that we are finding in
the world about us the images projected within consciousness. T ake the
time and have the courage to face the fact of the power of your choice. Y ou
have decided everything that has come into your life by taking a mental
stand about it, by allowing that stand to take form and shape in your
subconscious, by your willingness to accept it. If you are rich, you have
accepted an awareness of abundance; if you are poor, you have accepted an
awareness of poverty; if you are well and vigorous, you have accepted an
awareness of health; if you are sick, you have accepted an awareness of
illness. All of life is the clashing of opposites, the black and white of extremes, the
gray area in between. High, low, broad, narrow, dark, light, strength,
weakness — always we choose between them; and through our choices we
make ourselves into the kind of people we become, and shape the events
and circumstances of our lives. No one else is responsible at all, only
ourselves. Choice is always with us. W e make it, and thereby decide our
lives and our fate.OceanofPDF.com

Overcoming Opposition

The world is populated by many differ ent kinds of people. The little
girl stripping petals fr om a daisy in quest of a futur e husband while she
recites the well-known chant is like each of us as we stand at the
threshold of life and seek our destiny. “Rich man, poor man, beggar
man, thief, doctor, lawyer, mer chant, chief.” Which shall I be? Some
become mer chants, others manufactur ers, some teachers, others artists,
some warriors, and the world appears differ ent to each, for what they
see ther e prompts them in their choice and dictates each step of their
way. The warrior sees opposition. T o them the world is girded ar ound
with opposing for ces, and in the clash and r esolution of these for ces
they seek to find their r ole. Competitiveness and conflict come fr om
perceiving obstacles. Sensing hostility in the envir onment makes every
person a warrior in a psychological sense. No matter the ar ea they have
chosen, whether schoolr oom or battlefield, mer cantile stor e or library,
each encounters opposition in everything they do, for it is by the str ess
and strain of conflict and the r esolution of for ces and ideas that the
evolution of life itself is taking place on earth. Opposition Makes for Gr owth

Opposition is the natural environment of life. Remove opposition from a
person’ s surroundings, and they shortly wither and die. A muscle growsstrong by exercising it. Calluses protect the hand that daily performs hard
work. The mind that is used constantly becomes alert and facile. But when
we are unopposed we flounder and are frustrated, and our or ganism goes to
pieces through lack of intent and purpose. W e grow by meeting obstacles
and overcoming them. By this ef fort and aspiration we are refined into
better persons, into more intelligent and aware beings than we ever could
become if we vegetated in a completely benign environment.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

        Someone stands
on the forefinger of one hand atop a hundred-foot pole. Another walks a
tightrope across the chasm of Niagara Falls. Another springs from a board
and turns three somersaults in the air before landing on their feet. Still
another juggles a dozen balls at a time. W atching such performances, we are
astounded. How is it possible, we ask ourselves, for a human being to do
such things. It is possible because they have mastered the knack of
performing without thought. They have learned to shut of f the thinking of
their central self and to stand outside, as it were, grasping their whole action
as a continuous thing, seeing it as a single flowing, unbroken movement. As
a consequence, arms and legs move, muscles coordinate, ener gy is
expended, all at the behest of a complete picture held by their wider mind. They perform from the spine, unthinkingly, and respond only to the image
of what they want to do, just as someone else might walk down the street,
thinking only of where they want to go and never of the act of putting one
foot in front of the other. Trusting Y our Gr eater Self

The r eason why most people play such atr ocious golf is that they have
broken the golf swing down into a dozen differ ent small actions, each of
which r eceives the focus of their attention when they stand up to hit the golf
ball. It is a wonder they don’ t break their spines or snap a tendon. The
miracle is that they hit the ball at all, since they ar e thinking about
everything else but that. Those rar e specimens who master the art ofshooting par have master ed also the art of not thinking how. The gr eat
player stands up to the ball only after they have made up their mind wher e
they want to hit it. They don’ t think of how they will hit it. W e can adopt this
method in everything we do. W e can stop thinking how to do things and
start concentrating our attention only upon wher e we want to go. Once we
have made a decision, we must learn to trust our gr eater, outer mind for the
actual performance. There is a deep, underlying psychological reason for this. The brain and the
organs of the body are not to be trusted beyond the intelligence from which
they grew. To subject all performance to the limitation of human reason is
to subject all action to restriction and error. An infinite, eternal intelligence
grew the brain and body, and both now nestle in the lap of that intelligence,
are products of it, and never its master. We must stop forcing our ego to act
as an originator of action and thought, and instead learn to let thought
develop in us, action develop in us, as a result of a complete reliance upon
an outer and wider sense of being. Chuang-Tzu wrote:

A drunken man, when he falls out of a cart, though he may suf fer, does not
die. His bones are the same as other people’ s, but he meets the accident in a
different way. His spirit is in a condition of security. He is not conscious of
riding in the cart, neither is he conscious of falling out of it. Ideas of life,
death, fear, etc., cannot penetrate his breast, and so he does not suf fer from
contact with objective existences, and if such security is to be got from
wine, how much more is to be got from spontaneity. What we are driving at is an attempt to function through the totality of our
psychic being, rather than some small part of it, like the brain, or the reason,
or the memory. It should be obvious that the whole is always greater than its
parts, and if we can learn to think and act through the totality of all our
psychic functioning, then it is apparent that our ef fectiveness must be vastly
increased. The important, thing to remember is that the center of the mind’ sactivity is not in the conscious, thinking process, but in something greatly
above it, outside it, and yet in a manner within. Active Mind

When we learn to let our mind alone, it begins to function in a spontaneous
manner that is natural to it. It rids itself of inhibition and restriction, and our
effectiveness and ener gy are greatly increased. There are lar ge rewards to
be gained from learning how to function unconsciously. It is through
painful awareness of self that all our imperfections spring. W e are able to
stifle the nagging voice of self-consciousness through immersing it in the
great sea of being that is the Secret Self. There it mer ges and is lost, as a
drop of water mer ges and is lost in the ocean. W e become natural people
instead of artificial ones, and all our actions and all our thoughts take on a
spontaneity that springs directly out of the Divine. Unthinkable ingenuity
and creative power lie within universal mind, and to the degree that you
learn to trust your life and being to it, that much of its power is yours. The most remarkable thing about humanity is the mind. The mystery that
surrounds another person is the fact that they think, that their thoughts are
invisible and therefore strictly their own. W ithin the boundaries of their
own being, they live in a world that no one truly penetrates. It is populated
by shapes and structures, events and persons known only to them, with a
significance that is rooted in symbol. And this world in their mind has
greater meaning for them than the materialistic world in which they move


 That drawing in through the left is the beginning of the next pranayama. Close the left nostr il,
retain and exhale through the right. [Messenger exhales to the count of eight.] Hold. [8 -second
pause] Draw air through the right. [Messenger inhales to a count of eight.] Retain: [one,] two,
three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Exhale through the lef t. [Messenger exhales to the count of
eight.] Retain: [one,] two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. And draw in through the left. [Messenger inhales to a count of eight.] Exhale through the right. [Messenger exhales to the
count of eight.] Retain. [8 -second pause] Draw in through the right. [Messenger inhales to a
count of eight.] Retain. [8 -second pause] Exhale through the left. [Messenger exhales to the
count of eight.] Retain: [one,] two, three, four [4 -second pause]. And relax. So it is very simple. When you draw in through the left, you exhale through the right. When you
exhale through the right, you draw in through the right and then exhale through the left. And
then you start again. These levels of retention are powerful. And the principle here that you do not have in Djwal
Kul's breathing exercise is the shutting off of the nostrils. It is the closing of the nostrils and
using only the nostrils for inhaling and exhaling. This simple difference makes all the difference
in the world. There is more  Sacred Fire, more energy that you absorb, more intensity. 10. Visualize this sacred energy flowing through your veins, moving through your nervous
system, anchoring the essence of the balancing energies of the Holy Spirit in your four lower
bodies and a bsorbing from them all impurities, which you now see being flushed out of your
system as you exhale to the count of eight beats. Let the exhalation be deliberate and disciplined
as you slowly release the air as though it were a substance being pressed out of a tube. You may
round your lips to increase the tension of the exhalation. Imagine that breath being pushed out
from the very pit of the stomach as the abdominal muscles contract. You may lean forward if
this helps to press out the last bit of air remai ning in the lungs. 11. Now let your head resume an erect posture, and hold without inbreathing or outbreathing to
the final count of eight beats. 12. Repeat this exercise daily, as you are physically able, until you have established a rhythm —
mentally counting, if you wish, "One and two and three and four and five and six and seven and
eight and one and two and three and" —and so forth. Be careful tha t in your zeal you do not
overdo. Each one must in Christ discern his capacity, which may be anywhere from one to
twelve repetitions of the exercise per daily session. This fourfold exercise is for the balancing of the four lower bodies. The inbreath com es through
the etheric body; the first hold is an action of energizing through the mental body; the outbreath is the release through the emotional body; and the final hold is for the anchoring in the physical
form of the balanced action of Father, Son, Mot her and Holy Spirit. 13. When you have mastered the inbreathing, holding, outbreathing and holding in this fashion
and the accompanying visualization of the Sacred Fire releasing Light, energizing the
consciousness, extracting impurities, and finally anc horing the energies of the Christ, then —and
only then—you may add to your exercise the affirmation "I AM Alpha and Omega" to the count
of eight beats. This you mentally affirm once for each of the four steps of the exercise. This
affirmation is for the est ablishment within you of the Cloven Tongues of Fire, the Twin Flames
of the Holy Spirit that are the energies of the Father -Mother God. By thus invoking these energies and using the breath as the means to convey that energy to the
four lower bodies and t o anchor it in the physical form, you will be building the balanced action
of the caduceus —the intertwining of the Alpha and Omega spirals along the spine that are for
the ultimate victory of the masculine and feminine polarity that raises the energies of the
chakras, merges in the heart as the Christ and flowers in the crown as the Buddhic
Enlightenment of the thousand -petaled lotus. I place my Electronic Presence with each one as
the guardian action of the Sacred Fire—I AM the Guard—during the period of y our meditation
on the Fire Breath and your exercise of integration through the Eighth Ray. Understand, then, that by your application to the law that I have released in the first seven of
these studies, there is being bui lt within your aura a Fiery Coil of Life. This Coil, which is
approximately ten inches in diameter, you ought now to visualize rising from the base of an
imaginary sundial upon which you stand. As you look down at your feet, the Coil proceeds
from what would be the twelve o’clock line (pos itioned just in front of your feet). The Coil is an
electrode that winds in a clockwise direction, the Coils being spaced three inches apart. From
beneath your feet to the top of your head, this Coil is a pulsating White Fire. And it can be
focused as the action of the Sacred Fire of the Holy Spirit only in the aura of those who have the
devotion to the Christ and the commitment to the I AM THAT I AM. Sanat Kumara’s Names  Declaration

	the	wrong	principle. Polio	bugs	or	viruses	or	bacteria	are	not	the	cause	of	polio—but	the	result. Its

cause	and	prevention	were	clearly	and	irrefutably	demonstrated	in	1949	by	Ben

Sandier,	MD,	a	nutritionist	at	the	US	Veterans	Hospital	in	Oteen,	N.	C.

MEDICAL	ECONOMICS—Medical	politicians	have	a	method	of	stifling

business	competition	that	even	decent	medical	doctors	would	like	to	think	never

happens. But	it	does. Down	in	Tennessee	the	State	Medical	Beard	has	been

giving	a	gigging	to	Dr.	Chester	Fair,	a	venerable	and	revered	72-year-old

physician	because	he	has	cured	hundreds	of	cancer,	polio	and	other	such	cases

(which	medical	orthodoxy	had	referred	to	the	undertaker)	by	using	the	highly

successful	Koch	treatment. The	Board	subjected	him	to	a	humiliating	public

‘trial’,	accusing	him	of	immoral,	dishonest	and	unprofessional	conduct—because

he	cured	people	in	a	manner	that	brings	no	profit	to	the	Drug	Trust,	hospitals	and

the	surgical	brotherhood. Under	the	relentless	hammering	of	Benedict	Fitzgerald,

Washington	lawyer	who	is	building	a	reputation	as	a	medico-legal	practitioner,

the	Board	hauled	in	its	horns	and	dropped	the	first	two	charges. The	third	was	continued. In	Dallas	the	Texas	Medical	Board	went	‘all	the	way’. They	‘convicted’	seven	doctors	of	the	same	charge—curing	cancer	without	the
	approval	of	the	financial	interests	involved. Dr.	Hoxsey	is	appealing	to	the

circuit	court,	will	be	heard	Nov.	15. In	the	meantime	he	announced	that	his

doctors	will	be	curing	cancer	for	the	next	20	years	and	the	Texas	Medical	Board

be	damned. Next	issue	will	show	what	Canada’s	medical	board	did	to	a

registered	nurse	for	talking	to	a	woman	about	an	egg. December	16,	1955

ballyhoo	buildup	ever	given	a	commercial	product,	has	produced	three

outstanding	features	in	addition	to	the	little	white	coffins	and	tiny	leg	braces. 1)	It	made	a	goat	of	the	Cutter	Laboratories,	only	one	of	the	six	licensed	to	make

this	concoction	that	isn’t	a	part	of	the	Rockefeller	Empire. 2)	Scuttlebutt	in	Washington	reports	the	coming	scuttling	of	Dr.	Leonard

Scheele,	who	never	practiced	medicine	a	day	in	his	life,	as	head	of	the	US	Public

Health	Service. This	is	to	be	the	alibi	for	deaths	from	the	Salk	concoction. 3)	The	coining	of	a	number	of	sensational	phrases	by	serum	trust	public	relations

experts	to	take	the	public	mind	off	the	Salk	vaccine	deaths. Many	newspapers

have	dutifully	used	them	as	headlines,	qualifying	for	an	increase	in	their	quota	of

national	advertising. Such	as:

"General	Motors	Making	Device	that	Kills	Viruses	in	Vaccines	by	Spinning"...

Dr	Diehl	is	deliberately	distorting	facts. Let	the	record	speak	for	itself:

The	report	of	the	Surgeon	General	of	the	Army,	1919,	Vol. 1,	p. 38,	gives	the

number	of	Admissions	to	Hospitals	during	the	year	1918	on	account	of	vaccinia,

the	disease	caused	by	vaccination,	as	10,830. Another	report	of	the	Surgeon

General	of	the	Army,	1918	gives	the	number	of	Admissions	to	Hospitals	during

the	year	1917	on	account	of	vaccinia	and	typhoid	vaccination	combined	as

19,608. The	writer,	served	in	the	U. S. Army	in	World	War	II,	and	had	the	misfortune	to

partake	personally	in	one	of	the	Vaccination	Epidemics	which	occurred	in	the

summer	of	1942. He	was	hospitalized	for	two	weeks	during	May	as	a	result	of

inoculation	received	against	Yellow	Fever	in	February	of	the	same	year. He	was

unable	to	take	any	food	for	one	week	and	the	symptoms	included:

Constant	Vomiting,	Yellow	Skin,	abdominal	Pain,	Restlessness,	Drowsiness,

Delirium,	Elevated	Temperature,	Loss	of	all	Appetite,	and	a	Severe	Feeling	of

Sickness. A	large	percentage	of	the	men	in	his	company	came	down	with	the

 to understand calcium's role in the human body. One
of its main functions is to neutralize acid in the system. Many people
who think they have a calcium deficiency are on highly acidic diets, so
the calcium in their bodies is constantly being usurped to neutralize the
acid. They are getting plenty of calcium in their diets, but it is con
tinually used up. ALL DAIRY PRODUCTS EXCEPT BUTTER ARE EX
TREMELY ACID-FORMINC. Butter is a fat and is therefore neutral. Since
fat retards the digestion of protein, it is best nor to eat butter with any
protein. Butter can, however, be eaten with carbohydrates. The irony is
that people are consuming dairy products for calcium, and the existing
calcium in their systems is being used to neutralize the effects of the dairy
products they are eating. The idea should not be to load up the body with
calcium but rather to alter eating habits so that less acid is formed in the
system. That way the calcium will be utilized to its fullest potential. When you are cutting back on dairy consumption, you may notice
peeling or brittle nails or minor hair loss. These changes are not to be
mistaken for somewhat similar occurrences in very rare instances of pro
tein deficiency. If you are concerned, check with your physician. Your
body is making the adjustment from the absorption of the coarser calcium
found in dairy products to the absorption of the finer calcium found in
raw nuts, seeds, fruits, and vegetables. The body will replace fingernails and hair in the same way that
sloughed-off skin is replaced. It's difficult to notice, but your skin is reg
ularly sloughing off and being replaced by healthier tissue. In the same
way the body will replace lost hair with more lustrous hair, and lost
fingernails with stronger, sturdier nails. Raw nuts are particularly helpful if you do experience a change in your
nails or hair. They are incorporated in the program in combination with
raw vegetables. Half a cup of raw nuts a day is plenty for the average
person. If, when you cut back on dairy products, you immediately take
advantage of raw nuts and seeds and have them two or three times a
week, your nails and hair will in all likelihood become stronger and more
lustrous than ever before. It has been my experience over the last fifteen years that many allergies
86 - FIT FOR LIFF. and breathing problems can be directly tied to dairy consumption—espe
cially asthma. 1 have personally assisted over two dozen people in elim
inating asthma from their lives, and 1 know of many more people who
were helped by other Natural Hygiene practitioners. In all cases dairy
products were consumed by these individuals. My observations have been
similar to those of Beth Snodgrass and Dr. Herbert Shelton. The same
holds true of children with ear infections. Ear infections are so common
that they are actually considered to be a normal part of childhood! Any
child who has ever had an ear infection, I would be willing to wager, was
either fed dairy products or formula, or both! Kids not fed either dairy
products or formula rarely have ear infections. Kids who are fed these
products do. I know many kids who have never had ear infections, be
cause their parents had the wisdom not to hook their children on these
two nonfoods. I know you've heard experts say dairy products are an important part of
a healthy diet. And there are experts who say the opposite. To prevent
yourself from throwing your hands up in disgust or frustration, make your
own decision based on your own resources. Does it make sense for hu
mans to be consuming cow's milk? That's the answer to whether or not
you should eat dairy products. Because no matter in what form they are
eaten, no matter how tasty they are, if you eat dairy products, you're
vicariously suckling a cow. Does that make sense to you or not? There is one element common to any weight-loss program. Without it,
you stack the deck against yourself. That essential ingredient is, of
course... DAIRY PRODUCTS • 87 CHAPTER
Exercise
-L MO weight-loss program concerned
with your health is going to work for you without exercise, FIT FOR LIFE
is certainly no exception. To guarantee the benefits you deserve from the
effort you will put into this program, do some form of aerobics exercise
every day. For the body cycles to function effectively, it is imperative to
integrate the outlined principles of good eating habits with a well-bal
anced exercise program. You don't have to exercise yourself into a state of
exhaustion; that will only waste energy. But every day you should see to it
that your heart is exercised. An aerobics exercise is one that stimulates
the respiratory and circulatory systems. This way fresh oxygenated blood
reaches all areas of your body, a must if you want your body to operate
efficiently. The heart is a muscle, and just like any other muscle, if you
don't use it, you lose it. The idea is to do something every day to make
yourself pant and sweat. Actually horses sweat, men perspire, and women
glow. So get out there and glow and perspire, folks! THIS PROGRAM WILL
NOT WORK AS WEIX WITHOUT EXERCISE! The benefits extolled in the
prior chapters will be severely diminished by depriving the body of the
exercise it requires. There are many aerobic activities to choose from: swimming, tennis,
• 88'jumping rope, light jogging, bike riding, and brisk walking, as well as
aerobics classes. You can also do some stretching and weight lifting if you
wish, but the aerobics part is imperative. Many people are now choosing to own some kind of aerobics equip
ment that they can use in their own homes. There are reasonably priced
exercise bikes, rowing machines, rebounders (minitrampolines), and
many other excellent pieces of exercise equipment now being manufac
tured for home use. If your time is precious (and whose isn't? ), and you
can't always make it to the gym, consider owning some form of aerobics
exerciser that you can use whenever you have the time. Look into rebounding. It is a terrific way to insure yourself an excellent
full-body workout every day. You can own one of these reasonably priced
minitrampolines and jump on it right after you get out of bed in the
morning. No special attire necessary. No distances to travel. This is the
workout that astronauts and sports teams have been using for years—and
you can do it in the comfort of your own home (or better yet, out in the
fresh air, in your own garden). Rebounding is a terrific aerobics exercise
that people of all ages can enjoy, without the risks to the bone structure
that come from jogging on pavement, or to the lower back from stren
uous aerobic calisthenics. It strengthens and tones every cell of the body
because it works against the gravitational pull. There is a minimum of aerobics exercise that should be performed
every day. That minimum is a twenty-minute brisk walk. This is truly a
minimum. More would be great, but if you walk briskly for at least
twenty minutes, you will be performing enough aerobics to facilitate the
working of this program. The ideal time to do this exercise, or any exer
cise, is early in the morning. The air is freshest then, and so is your
body. There are physical benefits from early morning exercise because
your body is most capable of utilizing exercise at that time, but also there
are tremendous psychological benefits. I think that anyone interested in
losing weight or generally improving his or her well-being knows deep
down the importance of exercise. Unfortunately for some it's so easy to
find a reason not to exercise. Knowing one should exercise regularly but
not doing it can create negative feelings toward oneself, and that is an
energy drain. The way this happens is every time you think of exercise,
all day, if you haven't done any yet, you say to yourself, "Well, I haven't
done any yet today, and I probably won't be able to later, so I'll do it
tomorrow." Meanwhile you can't help feeling guilty. However, if you
exercise first thing in the morning, then every time you think of exercise
during the day, it's with a feeling like "Yeah! I've already exercised!" It
fills you with a fantastic positive feeling for yourself, and these feelings
spill over into other areas of your life. Everything is enhanced. Once you
EXERCISE • 89 get into the habit of exercising every morning, you'll get to the point
where you'll actually feel disappointed if you miss a day. In my own case I had the overweight person's typical resistance to
exercise, so I had to regiment myself to exercise every morning. Some
days I would wake up with thoughts like Boy, I've been so good, I'll just
take a well-deserved day off. Or Hey, even some pros say you should take
a day off once in a while. But while I was saying these things to myself,
which was just the old fat me, Blimpo, trying to hold on to the past, I
would be putting on my exercise clothes and preparing myself to work
out. Even as I would climb onto my bike for my regular


 trust the little prompts from the Holy Spirit in everythi ng I did.
And the more I trusted, the clearer the guidance became, and the more
joyful I got.
From Survival to Divine Providence
One morning, I woke up with the Bee Gees’ song “Stayin’ Alive” in my
mind. With it was the uncomfortable feeling that everyone is just trying
to survive in this world, trying to stay alive. Think about how much
energy people devote to this. It’s all about survival, security, safety, and
planning for the future. So much effort is put into keeping the bodyalive. We need to shift our consciousness from putting all that effort and
energy into maintaining the body to putting that same effort and energy
into forgiving our illusory thoughts, feelings, and beliefs, and
remembering Spirit, our natural spiritual reality.
We need trust to shift from staying alive and going nowher e to
being alive, to the joy, happiness, and vitality of our Christ being, our
true Self. As we deepen in trust, we see that everything we need will be
provided, withou t our own effort; we won’ t even have to think of it. This
is new and big. You can treat it like an experiment but not like a test
where you, for example, travel to a far-off town with no money to see if
you will be provided for. It’s more than that. It’s saying, “Start ing right
now, right here in this moment, what if I decide to trust that if I’m being
authentic, if I’m being transparent, and if I’m open to healing and
happiness, that everything that I would need for healing and happiness
will be provide d?” This is the promise of oneness, of love, that
everything you need to experience happiness will be provided.
A Divine Trust
What complicat es life and impedes trust are the ambitions of wanting
“more” or wanting something to be different. Whenever we get away
from the simplicity of this mom ent, it gets very complicated. Any wants
can start to torture us if they start looping in our minds becaus e we are
confused by thinking that these wants bring anything of value.  The key
is to begin to relax and to trust. And I am not talking about trusting the
monetary system, trusting in governments, or even trusting a human
being. I am talking about a divin e trust, trusting that the Holy Spirit will
offer us everything that we need to find happiness.
Here is how Jenny arrived at the importance of practicing trust.
I used to be very fearful of life in this world. I thought that
there were threats around every corner and in each turn of
events, threats of ending up alone and isolated. I didn’ t feel
at home  in this world, and the future was just this big
unknown. Even simple things seemed to be complicated, sofiguring out what I was going to do with my life felt
impossible. What did I want to do and become? I didn’ t
know, and I didn’ t want to make something up or just figure
something out. I wanted to know that there was a purpose for
it; I was extrem ely uncomfortable with just “getting on with
life” in some job. I wanted it to be purposeful and not at
random. I felt I needed to find something else, something
other than the conventional way, something that I could trust
would truly sustain me, my mind, my heart, and my being. It
didn’ t seem like that was going to be anything that this world
could of fer. I needed to be led by Holy Spirit.
It dawned on me that this was the way to learn to trust
life—by staying  connected with God or the Holy Spirit. I felt
that it wasn’ t worth doing anything without an experience of
that connection. It was as if I suddenly realized that God had
to do everything through me for me to know who I am and
what the purpose for my life was. It was daunting, but from
that mom ent, it has been a journ ey; there have been a lot of
tears, doubts, and hesitations because how do you learn to
open up to and always feel the presence of God in all that
you do? Well, I saw no other option than to try it out, to
practice trust.
Daring to Trust Paves the Way for Miracles
Faith and trust, which are syno nymous, are not quantifiable. Either we
trust or we don’t. Either we have faith or we don’t. We can’t say that we
have a little or a lot of trust. In order to accept the shift from our ordinary
experience of life to experiencing the glory of the present moment, we
need to strength en our trust in the Divine. The divine trust we are talking
about involves letting go of our attraction to a personal perspec tive and
gradually creatin g the space to embrace a wholly unified perspe ctive. To
trust and live a truly devoted life, we need a step-by-step process, like
children do as they grow. It takes a lot of trust for children to learn. They
must trust their caregivers. This kind of trust is the key to the whole
spiritual journey.Trust depends on whose hand is guiding us. That is why we work
on discernment between our true Self and the imposter self, the ego. The
extent to which we give faith and trust to the imposter is the extent that
we do not know our true identity. We learn to discern between the
imposter and our true Self through becoming aware of how we feel. At
any moment, we can ask, How do I feel? and the answer will allow us to
discern where the guidance comes from. We are strengthened in our
ability to discern as we practice this more and more, and as our divine
trust increase, fear dissolves.
The more trusting you become, the more relaxed you become. Then
when you notice a reaction or an emotion arising, you can see it is a
good thing because it helps you see where the ego still has a hold on the
mind. You are here to welcome what’ s unconscious so you can release it.
You are not here to try to put on a performance. You are not even here to
get things right because trying to get things right in form was part of the
game to cover your feelings of unworthiness.
Developing trust in the Holy Spirit can be experienced as
challenging, disconcerting, and uncomfortable. If some people knew this
ahead of time, they might be afraid and look for something they think is
a little more gentle. A lot of people would say, “Turn this off,” or “Let’ s
switch to another program. Let’s try ballet or something a little softer.”
But when you go deeper, the rewards in terms of an experi ence are
immense.
The Holy Spirit’ s plan is to help loosen the mind from what it
thinks it needs without a feeling of sacrifice. Because the egoic
interpretation of following the Holy Spirit is through the lens of loss, it is
rarely experienced as gentle, but it is good to know that gentle ness and
lack of sacrifice is what’ s available.
The belief in sacrifice can play out in many different ways. Since
this is a world of apparent choices, it seems that to choose one thing
means that we miss out on other  things. The possibility of “mis sing out”
this way makes us feel like we are always lacking in one way or another.
Developing a state of trust requires letting go of the importance of trying
to choose the right form and instead seeing that the real choice is for ahappy state of mind. The outcome in form is not so important, yet
feeling the importance of our purpose is where our happiness lies.
Following inspiration and being guided with all the daily choices
will build trust and pave the way for a miraculous state of mind.  Because
when you go deeper, you will see that you haven’ t lost anything. There is
no sacri fice involved, and the rewards in terms of peace of mind are
immeasurable. When you develop the ability to accept things as they
come into your life, doors of happiness seem to open in front of you, one
after another.
Stressors Reveal Our Level of Trust
There can be challenges in life that help us see where we are with our
trust. We can use them as barometers for how much we trust when it
comes down to something like the death of a loved one, the death of a
pet, a break-up,  a natural catas trophe, or other psychological stressors.
How well do we react? Does it move us into faith, trust, and a deeper
prayer? Do we grow stronger through those trials and tribulations, or do
we buckle and feel crushed? Does it feel like there is no hope? These
experiences can become opportunities. We can open up to allow them to
spur us into a much deeper trust where we rely on Spirit much more than
on circumstances.
This is a very straightforward pathway; it is really an experiential
pathway. We need experiences to show us that we are on the right track
and that we can continue to trust. If we took steps and we didn’ t feel any
lightness, lighthe artedness, or bursts of joy and happiness, then we might
even feel suspicion, “Okay, I took that step, and…?” It needs to be an

/G01 There are times in our liv es when we experience
something so profound that it shatters the infrastructure around which our lives had previously b een built, and it opens us up to
expanded ways of thinking, being,  and believing in the world.
I have had this kind of experience.  At the age of thirty-three, the universal hands of time reached into my life experience,  and I gave birth to a karmic appointment that had come due.   At the time, I did not yet know how disconnected I was from the truth of the non-physical world and the world of infinite good.  But an intense karmic adversary, from another age and time, re-birthed into my experience and induced an incredible awakening process.
This karmic appointment, and all of its conditions, was a
profound tragedy in my life.  It was wrought with exponential suffering.  The references to my karmic story in /G01/G02/G03/G04 /G01 /G16/G10/G07/G05/G19/G01/G12/G05/G04/G01
valuable only as a re flection of how tremen dous life challenges
can present all of us with a gift - /G01/G02/G05/G06/G07/G08/G08/G07/G09 tunity for self-
exploration, self-understanding, co nscious creation, and divine
expansion /G20/G01/G01/G21/G10/G01/G1C/G12/G16/G01/G02/G03/G01/G0C/G02/G14/G02/G03/G0E/G01/G02/G03/G01/G10/G0B/G04/G01/G04/G0F/G07/G10/G02/G07/G03/G12/G0C/G01/G05/G12/G03/G0E/G04/G01/G07/G0A/G01/G11/G04/G16/G0D/G12/G02/G05/G01
and utter darkness, that I ultima tely recovered my inner light.
Within us all, only light exists.  Darkness can serve only as a
mask, of our original light, until truth comes to shine a light on
its shadows in our lives.  And in the light of truth, the shadows
become transparent and fade away.
 As I rose out of this circumstance and into the greater truth of my inner being, greater truths arose within my outer life experience as well.  Innate talents within me surfaced, and
I learned how to invest them for more prosperous living.  The
world of the unseen became much more visible to me, in my inner and outer lives.  And with this increased clarity and understanding, I began to recall a significant experiential truth.
Prosperity of every kind lives within all of us.  It already is.  How we
choose to spend our divine wealth - is  up to us.  We are divinely loved
and richly supported.  And when we  consciously honor and invest our
light, we live the experience of universal de light /G0A   9
/G01 It was from the contrast of this profound karmic debt
that I uncovered the truth of my inner prosperity and abundant cosmic wealth.  I learned the art of deliberately choosing and fine-tuning my thoughts and inner focus, to make rich deposits within, in order to live the magi cal prosperity that is the divine
design.
My karma had only been a cloak, that dimmed my
/G05/G0B/G08/G05/G09/G03/G05/G0C/G0D/G05 /G01 /G07/G0A/G01/G0F/G19/G01/G0C/G02/G0E/G0B/G10  and well-being.  Facing the illusion of
this cloak was my greatest challenge, and my greatest gift.
We all have innate talents.  We all have tremendous
prosperity.  And we all have incredible creative power.  When we tune in to the power of deliberate conscious creation, there is no end to what we can achieve.  That infinite feeling of freedom
is the bliss that is our divine birthright.
Wherever you are in your lif e right now, whatever the
wattage at which your current light  shines, this rich inner life
indwells us all.  Investing in our light, and light -filled talents,
pays tremendous cosmic divide nds in self-understanding and
divine expansion.  Cosmic Wealth  is an offering of expanded
ways of thinking, being, and be lieving in ourselves, and this
grand universe.  As powerful creators, the choice is ours - each and every day, as to what we wi sh to create and experience for
our own enrichment.  Thank you for investing some of your time, to hear some of the treasures that I unearthed in my
journey, that may potentially enrich your own.
May love and peace be with you, and light your path,
now and always.
