The Law, Three
Leave the good and evil and eat of the Tree of Life. Nothing
in the world is untrue if you want it to be true. You are the truth of everything that you perceive. “I am the truth,
and the way, the life revealed.” If I have physically nothing in my pocket,
then in Imagination I have MUCH. But that is a lie based on fact, but truth is based on the intensity of my
imagination and then I will create it in my world. Should I accept facts
and use them as to what I should imagine? No.
It is told us in the story of the fig tree. It did not bear
for three years. One said, “Cut it down, and throw it away.” But the keeper of
the vineyard pleaded NO”! Who is the tree? I am the tree; you are the tree. We
bear or we do not. But the Keeper said he would dig around the tree and feed it
– or manure it, as we would say today– and see if it will not bear. Well I do
that here every week and try to get the tree – you – me to bear. You should
bear whatever you desire. If you want to be happily married, you should be. The world is only response. If you want
money, get it. Everything is a dream anyway. When you awake and know what you
are creating and that you are creating it, that is a different thing.
The greatest book is the Bible, but it has been taken from a
moral basis and it is all weeping and tears. It seems almost ruthless as given
to us in the Gospel, if taken literally. The
New Testament interprets the Old Testament, and it has nothing to do with
morals. You change your mind and stay in that changed state until it
unfolds. Man thinks he has to work himself out of something, but it is God
asleep in you as a living soul, and then we are reborn as a life-giving spirit.
We do it here in this little classroom
called Earth or beyond the grave, for you cannot die. You can be just as
asleep beyond the grave. I meet them constantly, and they are just like this.
Same loves and same hates. No change. They
will go through it until they finally awake, until they cease to re-act and
begin to act.
Do not take this story lightly which I have told you
tonight. Take it to heart. Tonight when you are driving home enact a scene. No
matter what it is. Forget good and evil. Enact
a scene that implies you have what you desire, and to the degree that you are
faithful to that state, it will unfold in your world and no power can stop it,
for there is no other power. Nothing
is independent of your perception of it, and this goes for that great
philosopher among us who is still claiming that everything is independent of
the perceiver, but that the perceiver has certain powers. It is not so. Nothing is independent of the perceiver.
Everything is “burned up” when I cease to behold it. It may exist for another,
but not for me. Law of Attraction Haven Let us make our dream a noble one, for the world is infinite response to you, the
being you want to be.
