What will make you well?

Repeat the following prayer each morning first thing on waking. Also, whenever you feel bad, stop whatever you are doing, and repeat the prayer—

O Lord Christ, open the door of my body to perfect health. 

O Lord Christ, open the door of my mind to perfect understanding. 

O Lord Christ, open the door of my heart to perfect spiritual realisation.

Then say to yourself very positively, 

This prayer is answered. I am getting better. I cannot expect it instantly, but as the door of my body, of my mind, and of my heart is opened, all three of them are co-operating to let in the vital life-giving Christ force, which will make me well. 

Continue this until your subconscious mind takes it up and literally builds it into your body, in all your atoms, and in all your thoughts.

Rest on dear Jesus' gentle breast.

From the realm of fragrant flowers—

From the land of golden bowers—

Where the fairest roses bloom,

Wafting forth their rich perfume—

Come we here to add our mite

To the cause of Truth and Right;

With our influence to bless

Those who seek happiness.

Meekly as a little dove,

Do we come to teach you love;

And to guide you to our skies,

To our sunny Paradise.

Christ—the Meek and Lowly Man—

Bids us all to do what we can

To bring back the darkened soul

To his all-expansive fold!

Faithfully shall we pursue

What our hands now find to do,

That we all may closer rest,

On dear Jesus' gentle breast.

Grace at Meals

A simple prayer before your meal—

I am a creator.

By the power of my spiritualised will,

I consciously gather all the forces from this food,

And use them to create health, strength and harmony, in all my bodies.

Prayer to the Divine Mother

The first to work definitely to inculcate the constructive principles of the Law of Life should be those whose consciousness can grasp and realise that love, compassion, justice, co-operation and all constructive forces neutralise and transmute the evil that the terrible rising tide of unrest, selfishness, racial and class antagonism, labour troubles and religious bigotry and intolerance among individuals, classes and nations, may be so transmuted—or at least turned aside—that it will not find expression in a new series of armed conflicts and bloodshed.

The uniting of thousands of hearts and minds to this definite end should generate a great current of dynamic spiritual force sweeping continuously around the world and help in opening wide the everlasting doors and preparing for the quick coming of the King of Glory, not only into your own heart and life but into the lives of nations and humanity as a whole.

Repeat morning, noon and night—or oftener—but at least once each day, the following prayer to the Divine Mother, with a deep heartfelt realisation of its significance and a scientific understanding of its dynamic psychological power to awaken and stimulate into action every germ of good in the hearts of mankind.

It is noon somewhere every minute of the day, which—like a refreshing breeze—should cool the heat of conflicting interests and blow off the karmic dust of the past, which is settling upon and blinding individuals and nations to the Law of Life—harmony and co-operation.

See the radiance, which this prayer invokes, dispelling the clouds of inharmony, as the Sun dispels the fog, stimulating the growth of the good in each heart, as the Sun stimulates the growth of the sprout when the fog has been dispelled and the Sun can carry on its constructive work.

PRAYER TO THE DIVINE MOTHER

O, Divine Mother!

Illumine me with Divine Wisdom and Truth,

Vivify me with Divine Life and Light

Purify me with Divine Love,

That, in all I think and say and do,

I may be Thy perfect child.

PRAYER TO THE DIVINE INDWELLER

Come, O Lord of Life and Love and Beauty!

Thou who art myself and yet art God!

And dwell in this body of flesh,

Radiating all the beauty and holiness and perfection,

That the flesh may out-picture all that Thou art within!

Even so come, O Lord.

Amen

What words do I say when I pray?

Beloved One—

Teach me—

I pray of Thee—

To learn how to love and respect Your gracious self as I should.

Teach me to cast aside all narrow thoughts of my neighbours and friends.

Teach me, I pray, to deal lightly with my enemies, that comfort may come to me through the purification of my thought of another. 

Even should they sin deeply against me, let my motto ever be the perfect word Forgiveness. 

Let me try my utmost to enter into the joy of others without the sting of jealousy entering into my heart—that wonderful organ, which brings forth the lifeblood of all breathing creatures—The core of the mortal body—Just as my Soul is the core of my divinity. 

Faith, Hope and Charity are ever a great Trinity. All go to make up the great and glorious existence of every Plane. So, dear Father, and Friend, knowing this as I do through Your kind and loving teaching, I ask Your blessing with the hope that my Faith and Charity unto others may become as Godly as Thine own. Amen!
