Law of attraction continued

       To bring about the realization of any desire, form a mental picture of success in your mind by consciously visualizing your desire. Visualization is a form of imagination, this process of thinking forms impression on the mind in turn form concepts and ideal and they in turn are all plans from which the Master Architect will weave the future. Thought and feeling is the irresistible combination. Visualization must, of course be directed by the will, we are to visualize exactly what we want, we must be careful not to let the imagination run riot. Imagination is a good servant but a poor master and unless its controlled it may easily lead us into all kinds of speculation and conclusion which have no basis on foundation of fact whatever. Every kind of plausible opinion is liable to be accepted without any analytical examination and the inevitable result is mental chaos. 

      Thought is the activity which control every principle beneath it. The highest principles by reason of its superior essence and qualities necessary determines the circumstance, aspect and relation of everything with which it comes in contact. True conception is only secured by spiritual insight. The insight is only secured when the mind is continuously concentrated in a given direction. Continuous concentration means an even, unbroken flow of thought and is the result of patient, persistent, persevering and well-regulated system.


All knowledge is the result of concentration of this kind, it is thus that the Secret oh Heaven and Earth have been wrested, it is thus that the mind becomes a magnet and the desire to know draws, the knowledge   irresistibly attract it, make it your own.  The subconscious mind may be aroused and brought into action in any direction and made it serve us for any purpose by concentration. The practice of concentration requires the control of physical, mental and physical being, all modes of consciousness whether physical or mental must be under control.
      Spiritual Truth is therefore the controlling factor, it is this which will enable you to grow out limited attainment and reach a point where you will be able to translate modes of thought into character and consciousness. Concentration does not mean mere thinking of thought but the transmutation of these thought into practical values, the average person has no conception of the meaning of concentration. There is always the cry “to have” but never the cry “to be”. Weakness is the only barrier to mental attainment, attribute your weakness to physical limitations or mental uncertainties and try again, ease and perfection are gained by repetition.
      All mental discovery and attainment are the result of desire plus concentration desire is the strongest mode of action, the more persistent the desire, the more authoritative the revelation. Desire added to concentration will wrench any secret from nature. In realizing great thoughts in experiencing great emotions that correspond with great thoughts, the mind is in a state where it appreciated the value of higher things. The spirit of initiative and originality is developed through persistence and continuity of mental effort.  The mind is an engine whose power is undreamed, thought is an omni-working power. It is the ruler and creator of all form and all event occurring in form. Physical energy is nothing in comparison with the Omnipotence of thought, because thought enables man to harness all other natural power.
      Vibration is the action of thoughts. It is vibration which reaches out and attract the material necessary to conduct and build. If you concentrate on some matters of importance, the intuitive power will be set in operation and help will come in the nature of information which will lead to success. Intuition arrives at conclusions without the aid and experience or memory. Intuition often 85solves problem that are beyond the gasp of the reasoning power. Intuition often comes with a suddenness that is startling, it reveals the truth for which we are searching, so directly that it seems to come from a higher power. Intuition can be cultivated and developed, in order to do this must be recognized and appreciated, if the intuitive visitor is given a royal welcome when he comes, he will come again, the more cordial the welcome the more frequent his visit will become but if he is ignored or neglected, he will make his visit few and far apart. Intuition usually comes in the Silence, great minds seek solitude frequently, it is here that all the larger problem of life are worked out.
      Remember that fundamentally the subconscious is Omnipotent there is no limit to the things that can be done when it was given the power to act. Your degree of success is determined by the nature of your desire. If the nature of your desire is in harmony with natural law or the Universal Mind, it will gradually emancipate the mind and give you invincible courage. Every obstacle conquered, every victory gained, will give you more faith in your power and you will have greater ability to win. Your strength is determined by your mental attitude, if this attitude is one of success and is permanently held with an unswerving purpose, you will attract to you from the invisible domain the things you silently demand.


Premature wealth or position cannot be retained because it not yet earned, we get only what we give, and those who want to get without giving always find that the law of compensation is relentlessly bringing about an exact equilibrium. The race usually been for money and other mere symbols of power but with an understanding of the true source of power, we can afford to ignore the symbols. When you get to the heart of things it is comparatively easy to understand and command them.  Because the spirit of the things is the things itself, the vital part of it, the real substance.  The form is simply outward manifestation of the spiritual activity within. If you wish to eliminate the fear, concentrate on courage. If you wish to eliminate lack concentrate on abundance. If you wish to eliminate the diseases concentrate on health. Always concentrate on the ideal as an already existing fact, which eventually manifest itself in form.

      Every living thing must be sustained by this Omnipotent Intelligence and we find the difference in individual lives to be largely measured by the degree of the intelligence, which they manifest. it is this adjustment that occupies the attention of the greatest mind, and this adjustment consists in nothing else than the recognition of an existing order in the Universal Mind for it is well known that this mind will obey us precisely in proportion as we first obey it. It is the recognition of natural laws that has enabled us to annihilate time and space, and the greater the degree of intelligence the greater will be our recognition of these natural laws the greater will be the power we can possess.

      It is the recognition of the self as an individualization of this Universal Intelligence that enable the individual to control those forms of intelligence which have not yet reached this level of self-recognition, they do not know that this Universal Intelligence permits all things ready to be called into action, they do not know that it is responsive to every demand and they are therefore in bondage to the law of their own being. Thought is creative and the principles which is the source and foundation of all energy and substance, the individual is simply the channel for the distribution of this energy. Thought is the invisible link by which the individual comes into communication with the Universal, the finite with the Infinite, the seen with the unseen.  Thought is a magic by which the human is transformed into a being who thinks, knows, feels and acts. As the proper apparatus has enable the eye to discover worlds without number millions of miles away, so with the proper understanding man has been enabled to communicate with the Universal Mind, the source of all power. The Universal Mind manifest itself in the objective through the principle of attraction that each atom has for every other atom, in Infinite degree of intensity.

      Thought is the energy by which the Law of Attraction is brought into operation, which eventually manifest itself in abundance. The Universal Mind is static Mind on Substance in equilibrium. It is differentiated into form by our power to think. Thought is the dynamic phase of mind. Power depends upon consciousness of power, unless we use it, we shall hose it and unless we are conscious of it, we cannot use it. The use of this power depends upon attention, the degree of attention determines our capacity for the acquirement of knowledge with is another name of power. The cultivation of attention depends upon practice. The incentive of attention is interest, the greater the interest the greater the attention, the greater the attention the greater the interest, action and reaction begin by paying attention. This interest will attract more attention, and this attention will produce more interest and so on.

         In seeking the truth we seeking the ultimate cause, we know that every human experience is an effect than if we may ascertain the cause and if we shall find that this cause is one which we can consciously control, the effect on the experience will be within our control also, Mind is the real and eternal. Matter is forever changing we know that the eons of time a hundred years is but as a day. We have to come that Mind is the only principle which is operative in the physical, mental, moral and spiritual. All wealth is the offspring of power possession are the value of as they confer power.  Events are significant only as they effect power, all things represent certain form and degree of power.


      The spirit of the things is that things, it is necessarily fixed, changeless and eternal. The spirit of you is – “YOU” without the spirit you will be nothing. It becomes active through your recognition of it and its possibilities, all great things come through recognition, the sceptre of power is consciousness and thought is its messenger and this messenger is constantly moulding the realities of the invisible world into the condition and environment of your objective world. Thinking is the true business of life power is the result. You are all times dealing with the magical power of thought and consciousness. 

      The secret of power is a perfected understanding of the principle, forces, methods and combinations of Mind and the perfect understanding of our relationship to the Universal Mind. It is well to remember that this principle is unchangeable, if this were not, it would not be reliable, all principles are changeless. But reception will come only in Silence, this seen to be the condition required for all great purposes. You are a visualizing entity. Imagination is your workshop. It is here at your ideal is to be visualized. Inspiration is an act of imbibing, the art of self-realization, the art of adjusting the individual mind to that of the Universal Mind, the art of attaching the proper mechanism of the source of all power, the art of differentiating the formless into form, the art of becoming the channel for the flow of Infinite Wisdom, the art of visualizing perfection, the art of realizing the Omnipresence of Omnipotence. Inspiration is from within. The Silence is necessary the senses must be stilled, the muscle relaxed, repose cultivated. When you have thus come into possession of the sense of poise and power you will be ready to receive the information or inspiration or wisdom which may be necessary for the development of your purpose.

      The real source of power is consciousness of power. The Universal Mind is unconditional, therefore, the more conscious we become of our unity with this mind, the less conscious we shall become of conditions, limitations and as we become emancipated or freed from conditions we come into a realization of the unconditional. We have to become free. This is because the Infinite Mind, which is the source from which all things proceed, is one and indivisible, and each individual is a channel whereby this Eternal Energy is being manifested. Our ability to think is our ability to act upon this Universal Substance, and what we think is what is created or produced in the objective world.
      The ability to eliminate the imperfect conditions depend upon mental action and mental action depend upon consciousness of power, therefore the more conscious we become of our unity with the source of all power, the greater will be our power to control and master every conditions. This is one of the secrets of success one of the methods of organizing victory. “Think big thought”. Mind is just as must present in the Infinitely large as in the Infinitely small. When we realizing these facts concerning mind, we understand how we may bring ourselves any condition by creating the corresponding conditions in our consciousness, because everything which is held for any length of time is the consciousness eventually become impressed upon the subconscious and thus become a pattern which the creative energy will wave in the life and environment of the individual. In this way conditions are produced and we find that our lives are simply the reflection of our predominant thoughts, our mental attitude, we see then that the science of correct thinking is the one science that it includes all other science. These experiences come to us through the Law of Attraction. Through the action of this law, we meet in the world without the experiences which correspond to our world within. The predominant thought or the mental attitude is the magnet conditions as correspond to its nature. This mental attitude is our personality and is composed of the thoughts which we have been creating in our mind, therefore if we wish a change in condition all that is necessary is to change our thought, this will in turn change our mental attitude, which in turn change the persons, things and conditions or the experience with which we meet in life. It is however, no easy matter to change the mental attitude, but the persistent effort it may be accomplished, the mental attitude is patterned after the mental pictures which have been photograph on the brain. If you do not like the pictures destroy the negatives and create new pictures this is the art of visualization.


      As soon as you have done this you will begin to attract new things and the new things will correspond to the new pictures.  To do this impress on the mind a perfect picture of the desire which you wish to have objectified and continue to hold the picture in mind until results are obtained. If the desire is one which requires determination, ability, talent, courage, power or any other spiritual power these are necessary essentials for your picture build them in, they are the vital life of the picture, there are the feeling which combines with thought and creates the irresistible magnetic power which draws the things you require to you. They give you picture life and life means growth and as soon as it begins to grow, the result is practically assured. Do not hesitate to aspire to the highest possible attainment in anything you may undertake, for the mind forces as are ever ready to lead themselves to a purposed will in the effort to crystallize it highest aspiration into acts, accomplishment and events.

      There are no limits to what this law can do for you, dare to believe on your own idea, remember that nature is plastic to the ideal, think of the ideal as an already accomplished fact. The real battle of life is one of ideas it is being fought out by the few against the many on the one side is the constructive and creative thoughts, on the other side the destructive and negative thought, the creative thought is dominated by an ideal, the passive thought is dominated by appearance.
     The Divine Mind is the Universal Mind, it makes no exception, it plays no favourites, it does not act through sheer caprice or from anger, jealousy or wrath, neither can it be flattered, cajoled or moved by sympathy or petition to supply man with some need which he thinks necessary for his happiness or even his existence. The Divine Mind makes no exceptions to favour any individual, but when the individual understands and realize his Unity with the Universal principle, he will appear to be favoured he will have found the source of all health, all wealth and all power.
      Knowledge of priceless value, because by applying knowledge we can make our future what we wish it to be. Everything in the Universe is what it is by virtue of its rate of vibration. Change the rate of vibration and you change the nature, quality and form. We can change the vibration and thus the produce any condition which we desire to manifest in our bodies. We are all using this power every minute. Brain cells are constructed in the same way. The equality of the brain is governed by the state of mind or mental attitude, so that if undesirable mental attitudes are conveyed to the subjective, they will in turn be transferred to the body, we can therefore readily see that if we wish to body to manifest health, strength and vitality this must be the predominant thought.
      The first law of success is service and this is turn built on integrity and justice. The man who at least is not fair in his intention is simply ignorant, he has missed the fundamental law of all exchange, he is impossible, he will lose surely and certainly, he may not know it, he may think he is winning but he is doomed to certain defeat. He cannot cheat the Infinite. The law of compensation will be demand of him “an eye for an eye and a tooth or a tooth”.
      The force of life was volatile, they are composed of our thoughts and ideals and these in turn are moulded into form, our problem is to keep an open mind, to constantly read out for the new, to recognize opportunity, to be interested in the race rather than the goal, for the pleasure is in the pursuit rather than the possession. You can make a money magnet of yourself, but to do so you must first consider how you can make money for other people. A generous thought is filled with strength and vitality, selfish thought contains the germ of dissolution it will disintegrate and pass away.


     If we recognize the Omnipotent power that is the source of all supply, we will adjust our consciousness to this supply in such a way that it will constantly attract all the necessary to itself and we shall find that the more we give the more we get. Giving in this sense implies service.  Creative thinking requires attention, the power of attention is called concentration this power is directed by the will for this reason we must refuse to concentrate or thinking of anything except the things we desire. Many are constantly concentrating upon sorrow, loss and discord of every kind as thought is creative it necessarily follows that is concentration inevitable leads to more loss, more sorrow and more discord. On the other hand, when we meet with success, gain or any desirable condition, we naturally concentrate upon the effect of these things and thereby create more and so it follows that much leads to more.
        Spirit, whatever else it may or may not be, must be considered as the Essence of Consciousness, the Substance of Mind, the reality underlying Thought.  And as all ideas are phases of the activity of Consciousness, Mind or Thought is follows that in Spirit and in it alone, is to be found the Ultimate Fact, Real Thing or Idea.  
      But remember that thought is creative and consequently every time you allow your thought to rest in any inharmonious condition, you must realize that such condition was apparently only, they have no reality, that spirit is   the only reality and it can never be less than perfect. All thought is a form of energy, a rate of vibration, but a thought of the Truth is the highest rate of vibration known and consequently destroys every form of error in exactly the same way that light destroy darkness, no form of error can exist when the “Truth” appears, so that your entire mental work consists in coming into an understanding of the Truth. This will enable you to overcome every form of lack, limitations or disease of any kind.
     Truth manifested itself in character and the character of a man should be the interpretation of this religion on what to him is truth, and this will in turn be evidence in the character of his possession. As thought is creative and the truth is the highest and most perfect thought which anyone can think, it is self-evident that to think the truth is to create that which is true and it is again evident that when truth comes into being that which is false must cease to be. The Universal Mind is the totality of all mind which is in existence. Spirit is Mind because Spirit is Intelligence.




SUMMARY:
Opportunity follows perception, action follow inspiration, growth follows knowledge, eminence follow progress. Always the spiritual first, then the transformation into the Infinite and illimitable possibilities of achievement.
