What are the facts of being?
Do not neglect rest—your working capacity is increased for every added hour of true rest.
You are not wasting time when you lie down and dream.
The hardest road leads up the highest mountain, and there is rest at the top.
The idle hours are sometimes as valuable as those that are spent in labour.
It is in so-called idle hours that you meditate, get acquainted with yoursef, and build air castles, which are working plans for your edifice of the future.
Whatever you desire―or love begins at once to travel toward you unless a stronger force from a different direction draws it away.
He who adjusts to environment adjusts even to unrest. Remember that.
To know the meaning of home, you must wander.
You are not a creature of fate.
Set that down as a truth not to be denied.
You are free to live your own life.
The human ego is coming into its own.
When it loses selfishness, it will find itself.
That is not a paradox for its own sake, but the statement of a psychological fact.
In unity is strength―in disunity is disintegration.
I wish I could make you see that separation is death and that unity is life.
I wrote the other day about adepts and masters.
Jesus is a type of the greatest Master.
He is revered in all the heavens.
He grasped the law and dared to live it―to exemplify it.
And when he said The Father and I are one, He pointed out the way by which you may realise mastership in yourself.
Jesus of Nazareth is a reality.
As a spiritual body, Jesus who dwelt in Galilee, He exists in space and time―as the Christ, the paradigm of the spiritual man, He exists in the hearts of all who awaken that idea in themselves.
He is a light, which is reflected in many pools.
Wake up to your divinity within.
You are not of flesh and blood and bone and sinew, but you are a state of consciousness.
It is because you recognise their state of consciousness, as being themselves, that men and women reveal themselves to you.
There is a beautiful being in everyone—the bird that sings in the heart of an earthquake―the rose that nestles in the hot mouth of the cannon―the pearl that cannot be crushed by the landslide―the angel that illumines hell.
When you become your own schoolmaster, you make great strides.
You can create almost anything if you imagine it strongly enough—even joy and courage.
You have a choice to choose anything you want in this world.
Why do you not choose joy?
When you learn to think of life as a whole, of which you are a part, containing in yourself the potentialities of the whole, then you will look upon the great changes with joy.
The supple tree feels the wind, but its roots cling tightly to the soil and the rock of individuality.
In the wind that sweeps across the world, cling tight to the soil of freedom and the rock of social responsibility.
You can survive the world if you do not lose your hold on the soil and the rock that has steadied and sustained you.
What a wonderful expression―being together!
Not working together, nor playing together, but simply being.
You must often have felt that joy when with a loved friend.
Words are not necessary for that enjoyment.
Words often lessen the enjoyment by the very effort of uttering them.
Even the birds enjoy it and the rose could give you valuable secrets of that joy.
