Dim light casts shadows. Clouds enshroud and veil the sun. Dark seems a power. Is the sun’s light gone? When clouds open or depart, was that darkness real? Dark moments include grief, pain, failure, fear, envy. Behind is the sun. In the light of day, Light did not dispel darkness. It shows its absence. Reach for the light of spiritual discernment. Where light is, Light is.       Those who on earth attain valiant victory over darkness will bask in the light and glory of a tangible peace and inner happiness.

“We may go to a teacher or to a book for guidance and help along the way, but we cannot go to a teacher or to a book for God. For that, we have to go to our own Soul, to the innermost depths of our own being. No man, woman, or book can reveal God to us. All any one of them can do is to show us the path along which we may travel until we get back into the kingdom of our own being, the kingdom of our own Soul, and there find God.     “It is like the disciple who went to his master and asked, ‘Please, Master, show me God. Let me know God. Let me stand in God’s presence.’     “Over and over he made this appeal to his master, but the wise master did nothing about it except smile and say, ‘Yes, in time, in time, in time.’     “Then one day the master felt that the time had come, so he said to his disciple, ‘I am going to take you to our secret and sacred temple. There are three rooms in this temple, but I can take you into the first one only. After that you will have to proceed by yourself. If you find the way, ultimately you will find God. If not, it will have to be another time.’     “The disciple found himself alone in a room that was empty except for a golden statue of the Jehovah God, but after he became accustomed to the feel of this room, he sensed that something was wrong. ‘No, this is not it. There is too heavy an atmosphere here. I shall have to go further.’     “So he found his way into the next room, and after entering this second room, he began to breathe more freely. But as before, when he familiarized himself with the surroundings, he saw that he was once more in an empty room except for a crystal statue of the Jehovah God. He felt the lightness of the crystal; he felt the lightness of the atmosphere of the room, and said to himself, ‘This is more like it.’ But after a while he realized that this, too, was not It.     “With that, he began to search for the entrance to the third room, and when he discovered it, he found himself in an empty room, a completely empty room. There was nobody there but himself.” Joel S.

Leaps of consciousness appear to hit in a flash. Behind is the work. Day-by-day progress is to be present, aware, seeing all as One. Instantaneous illumination happens. Saul was struck down blind. Lifted vertical comes when we least expect it. Light made Saul a Paul!     My own state of consciousness permeates every externalized part of my experience. It cannot be otherwise.     What we do take with us as we leave this plane is every bit of good that we have brought into active expression in our life and every bit of spiritual enlightenment we have gained.

There is nothing of greater importance in all this world to do than to rest peacefully and enter the inner sanctuary, then be quiet be still be silent be empty enough to experience the Divine Presence and hear the Voice within. This is the eternal pearl, the only comfort, answer, and fulfillment you will ever require.     The transcendental “Word,” in its true origin and essence, is only ever spoken and heard within the silence of your own being. And, only you can realize this for yourself, such that you alone, through your own effort and dedication, can enter the Promised Land. A Moses can lead you almost there, but you alone must enter on your own.

Law of Forgiveness means that forgive, forgiven are synonymous. A weight is put down both for you and the other. No longer burdened. Law of Forgiveness is release, freedom granted. Holding chains dissolved. One more big weight drops within for one’s own missteps. Unbind is unbound.     The spiritual effect of forgiveness is that it nullifies an apparent, external effect and thus elevates us to a higher consciousness above that of a so-called material and mental sense of the world. Forgiveness resides in the realm of Spirit, and it causes a whole different rippling scenario of effects and consequences—peace of mind and heart, generosity, gentleness, kindness, compassion, contentment, and unconditional love. Forgiveness is a glimpse into the spiritual universe, of Grace become visible.   The person with a forgiving heart allows a perceived something—no matter its minor to major degree—to become its rightful nothing. Such an opened heart has risen to the impersonal level of forgiveness that realizes the Self of the other is the Self of me. It creates a vacuum, a cleansed emptiness where something entirely new comes in—the true Love that originated from the beginning.

If you want to be unbound, you must relinquish earthly traits and values for heavenly truth and Grace. You must release your dependence on the visible world for the peace and assurance of the Invisible; then, all perception occurs through the transparency of spiritual eyes. You must sup of food that endures from that which perishes. You must dispense with multiple gods and powers and the various human-created “prisons” you are attached to in order to realize your unity with the One Soul. And, you must come out from behind the mask of an enclosed, personal sense of self to return to your divine Identity and true Home. Slowly, steadily, surely, with patience and dedication, a transition occurs and the sitting at the feet of a Master transforms into you as the one who radiates serenity, wisdom, forgiveness, understanding, comfort, and the love that encompasses all equally within the universal tapestry of Manifested Life.     …assume responsibility for your own mind, both as to what goes into it and what comes out from it. In this way, you determine the nature of your entire experience because you learn how to avoid accepting universal beliefs and how to avoid the pitfall of coming under domination of the thinking of others, individually or collectively. Thus, you can learn how to go through life in control of your own experience. …The only force or power there is, is that which you yourself possess. You have within yourself the Redeemer, the Savior, the Power unto your own existence. Joel S. Goldsmith, Spiritual Discernment: the Healing Consciousness   We must know the truth for the truth to make us free. Everything comes through consciousness, and if we are not conscious of God’s presence, we do not have it. If we are not conscious of God’s power, we do not have it. If we are not conscious of God’s omniscience, we do not have it. Therefore, anything that comes to us must come through our own consciousness. Joel S.

Prayer in its highest sense is the prayer of contact, of communion, in which no words or thoughts pass from you to God, and there may not even be words or thoughts passing from God to you, but there will be an awareness; there will be an inner sense of peace. True prayer comes to its completeness and its perfection when there are no desires in the mind. True prayer comes to full bloom when one has lost all sense of wanting something in this feeling of communion, resting in the Soul. It is just as if all your wishes had been granted…. as if it were Christmas morning at the tree. You had received all your gifts and now just have the feeling of “Thank you, everyone.” Joel S.

Master “J” taught us to take no thought for our life, to forego our nets. Timeless the mystics live from inward provision. In advance, all known. There is a rich stream where manifest blessings are a ceaseless flow out. As the heart opens, light is heaven’s Consciousness.
