Consciously Creating Circumstances, Part 15: 07-27-05
(08:19:36) (HostLoryGG) Shall we begin?
(08:20:43) (HostLoryGG) HELP us, FATHER GOD, to treat every human heart as if it were breaking and to consider the feelings of others as we do our own. HELP us to be gentle, and to control our tempers that we may learn to love one another. GIVE us the GRACE so to live this day in the name of JESUS, who loves us all. Amen.
(08:21:52) (HostLoryGG) And now, perhaps, it is high time that we get down to cases and discuss some practical examples of how to use thought-forms ~~ and how NOT to us them. Here they are, but please remember that they are only examples, and are not suggested specifically for your own use
(08:22:32) (HostLoryGG) Everyone should develop his own thought-forms without suggestions from others. But these examples will serve to make certain important point clearer to the novice.
(08:23:17) (HostLoryGG) Let us go back to our previous example of how a man sold a house. He listed it with brokers, and then formed a complete picture of that house already sold and himself moving out, etc. It worked.
(08:23:47) (HostLoryGG) What would have been a wrong way of operating such a thought-form? One of the worst things he could have done would have been to picture a certain prospect buying it. That would have violated the rule of not specifying the channel or person, time or method by which the thought-form shall operate
(08:24:32) (HostLoryGG) Or my friend might have formed a picture of himself moving into a new home after leaving the one he had. That would not have been wrong, but it would have been too indirect, to remote. It is better to confine the thought-form to the immediate desire in hand.
(08:25:20) (HostLoryGG) Yet either of these two less desirable thought-forms would have been preferable to none. Most anyone would have tried to sell his house merely by mentioning its availability at every opportunity to friends, by advertising it widely in the newspapers ~~ by objectively seeking, in other words, the specific answer to his problem.
(08:26:06) (HostLoryGG) In one case out of many this method, to be sure, would have worked. But a properly worked out thought-form, if persisted in, will ALWAYS work.
(08:26:35) (HostLoryGG) Please notice the word ALWAYS. :-)
(08:27:30) (HostLoryGG) Do not worry if you find it difficult at first to frame your desires completely and simply. Your real meaning will be clear to the Universal Mind without lengthy and detailed instructions. But be sure you do have a definite idea yourself. If you find it hard to phrase, it may be that you have not yet as definite a desire as you think you have.
(08:28:17) (HostLoryGG) Some students, with all sincerity and the best intentions in the world, begin to concentrate on wealth. Now wealth in itself need not be despised, but wealth sought merely as an end generally destroys the individual who gets it. You have seen that yourself. Wealth does not always accomplish the purpose originally desired.
(08:29:42) (HostLoryGG) Many times in the passing years have I heard people say: “Wait till I have made enough money and then I want to devote my entire time to humanitarian work”. And I have watched and waited and I have never seen one of them acquire what he considered enough to enable to relax and devote himself to the really useful side of life. Yet many of them have made what the world calls “wealth”.
(08:30:33) (HostLoryGG) When you concentrate to impress your thought-form upon the Universal, do NOT ask for money or wealth first. THERE MAY BE A BETTER WAY. Follow the rules given and picturize yourself doing the exact work you desire to do, regardless of money. The fact that you become able to do the thing you desire to do is evidence that the means for you to do so will be forthcoming.
(08:31:29) (HostLoryGG) The best plan for all thought-forms is to see yourself in them doing the actual work you want to do. Then do not “cramp” the Universal by trying to impress it with the idea of just what the desire will cost or when the means shall come or through what channels. What do you care how the supply comes so long as you are doing your work? That is the big thing ~~ the ONLY thing for you to concentrate on.
(08:32:34) (HostLoryGG) Study the teaching of the Nazarene Master in the light of what we have been saying, for in them you may find a surprising rest and peace and the assurance of a haven to which all are welcome.
(08:33:19) (HostLoryGG) They are simple to understand, when read in the true light, but in practicing them we come face to face with ourselves, and discover that human nature is prone to wander from the strict path of constructive and equitable action and thought. Yet this, too, can be overcome.
(08:33:58) (HostLoryGG) If and when you find it difficult to follow the precepts of the great laws of nature which are bound to produce harmony, it is because somehow you are thinking wrong.
(08:34:32) (HostLoryGG) . Stop where you are, and wait until your inner guidance tells you that you are back on the clear road to straight and correct thinking, for as your thoughts are, so will the results be, and if you are jangled in your thoughts you will be jangled and confused in your actions and affairs.
(08:35:18) (HostLoryGG) Jot this rule down in your memory and, paradoxical as it may seem, believe it. If you are as poor as the proverbial church-mouse, never think poverty. If you are as rich as Croesus, never think of yourself as wealthy. But ALWAYS THINK OF YOURSELF AS OPULENT.
(08:36:15) (HostLoryGG) . Many a financially poor man is so rich in courage and stamina that he is bound to rise out of his poverty. Many a rich man is so poor in spirit that his money is the only thing that gets him by, and he frequently loses that. But the OPULENT man, the one who, rich or poor, is conscious of the FULLNESS of the good things of life, health, spirit, resilience, the ability to feel himself one with all God’s creation, a brother and friend to all and a
(08:36:52) (HostLoryGG) beauty of a sunset, the rhythm of a symphony, the language of trees and flowers and animals, will sooner or later enjoy, physically and spiritually, ALL the things this world can shower upon him, simply because he is a part of all good things and by the Law of Attraction they will come to him. He can have “infinite riches in a little room”.
(08:38:02) (HostLoryGG) OK that is all I have prepared for tonight. Anyone with questions? If not let us hear about Ral's day. :-)
(08:40:17) (Raleigh) gg i notioced that my days are filling with 3z and 9z / more 9z
(08:41:44) (HostLoryGG) Nines a completion, or ending, Ral. Be sure to not start anything new in a nine period, unless you propose to have it finished before the end of its timing.
