MISCELLANEOUS

The thing you dislike or hate will surely come upon you, for
when man hates, he makes a vivid picture in the
subconscious mind and it objectifies.

The only way to erase these pictures is through non‐
resistance. (See The Game of Life and How to Play It.)

For example: A woman was interested in a man who told
her repeatedly of his charming women cousins.

She was jealous and resentful and he passed out of her life.

Later on she met another man to whom she was much
attracted. In the course of their conversation he mentioned
some women cousins he was very fond of.

She resented it, then laughed, for here were her old friends
ʺthe cousinsʺ back again.

This time she tried non‐resistance. She blessed all the
cousins in the Universe and sent them good‐will, for she
knew if she didnʹt, every man she met would be stocked up
with women relations.

It was successful for she never heard cousins mentioned
again.

This is the reason so many people have unhappy
experiences repeated in their lives. I knew a woman who
bragged of her troubles. She would go about saying to
people;

ʺI know what trouble is!ʺ and then wait for their words of
sympathy.

Of course, the more she mentioned her troubles, the more
she had, for by her words she ʺwas condemned.ʺ

She should have used her words to neutralize her troubles
instead of to multiply them.

For example—had she said repeatedly: ʺI cast every burden
upon the Christ within and I go free,ʺ and not voiced her
sorrows, they would have faded from her life, for
ʺby your words you are justified.ʺ

ʺI will give to thee the land that thou seest.ʺ

Man is ever reaping on the external what he has sown in his
thought world.

For example: A woman needed money and was walking
along the street making the affirmation that God was her
immediate supply.

She looked down and at her feet was a two dollar bill,
which she picked up.

A man standing near (a watchman in a building), said to
her: ʺLady, did you pick up some money? I thought it was a
piece of chewing‐gum paper. A lot of people walked over
it, but when you came it opened up like a leaf.ʺ

The others, thinking lack, had passed over it, but at her
words of faith it unfurled. So with the opportunities in
life—one man sees, another passes by.

———

ʺFaith without works (or action) is dead.ʺ

The student, in order to bring into manifestation the answer
to his prayer must show active faith.

For example: A woman came to me asking me to speak the
word for the renting of a room.

I gave her the statement: ʺI give thanks that the room is now
rented to the right and perfect man for the right price,
giving perfect satisfaction.ʺ

Several weeks elapsed but the room had not been rented.

I asked: ʺHave you shown active faith? Have you followed
every hunch in regard to the room?ʺ She replied: ʺI had a
hunch to get a lamp for the room, but I decided I couldnʹt
afford it.ʺ I said: ʺYouʹll never rent the room until you get
the lamp, for in buying the lamp you are acting your faith,
impressing the subconscious mind
with certainty.ʺ

I asked: ʺWhat is the price of the lamp?ʺ She answered:

ʺFour dollars.ʺ I exclaimed:
ʺFour dollars standing between you and the perfect man!ʺ
She became so enthusiastic, she bought two lamps.

About a week elapsed and in walked the perfect man. He
did not smoke and paid the rent in advance and fulfilled
her ideal in every way.

Unless you become as a little child and dig your ditches you
shall in no wise enter the Kingdom of manifestation.

ʺWithout the vision my people perish.ʺ Unless man has
some objective, some Promised Land to look forward to, he
begins to perish.

We see it so often in small country towns, in the men who
sit around a stove all winter, who ʺAin’t got no ambition.ʺ

Within each one is an undiscovered country, a gold mine.

I knew a man in a country town called ʺMagnolia Charlie,ʺ
because he always found the first magnolia in the spring.

He was a shoemaker, but every afternoon left his work to
go to the station to meet the four‐fifteen train, from a
distant city.

They were the only romances in his life, the first magnolia
and the four‐fifteen train. He felt vaguely the call of the
vision in the superconscious mind.

No doubt, the Divine Design for him included travel and
perhaps he was to become a genius in the plant world.

Through the spoken word the Divine Design may be
released and each one fulfill his destiny.

ʺI now see clearly the perfect plan of my life. Divine
enthusiasm fires me and I now fulfill my destiny.ʺ

The Spiritual attitude towards money is to know that God is
manʹs supply, and that he draws it from the abundance of
the spheres, through his faith and spoken word.

When man realizes this he loses all greed for money, and is
fearless in letting it go out.

With his magic purse of the Spirit, his supply is endless and
immediate, and he knows also that giving precedes receiving.

For example: ʺA woman came to me asking me to speak the
word for five hundred dollars by the first of August. (It was
then about the first of July.)

I knew her very well, and said: ʺThe trouble with you is you
donʹt give enough. You must open your channels of supply
by giving.ʺ

She had accepted an invitation to visit a friend and did not
want to go on account of the formality.

She said: ʺPlease treat me to be polite for three weeks, and I
want to get away as soon as possible, and be sure to speak
the word for the five hundred dollars.ʺ

She went to the friendʹs house, was unhappy and restless
and tried continually to leave, but was always persuaded to
stay longer.

She remembered my advice, however, and gave the people
about her presents. Whenever possible she made a little
gift.

It was nearing the first of August and no signs of the five
hundred dollars, and no way of escape from the visit.

The last day of July she said: ʺOh God! maybe I havenʹt
given enough!ʺ So she tipped all the servants more than she
had intended.

The first of August, her hostess said to her: ʺMy dear, I want
to make you a gift,ʺ and she handed her a check for five
hundred dollars!

God works in unexpected ways his wonders to perform.
