The ideas and images in our minds are the invisible powers that constantly govern them; and to these they all pay universally a ready submission.
- Inspired by Jonathan Edwards

23. The conditions with which you meet in the world without are invariably the result of the conditions obtaining in the world within, therefore it follows with scientific accuracy that by holding the perfect ideal in mind you can bring about ideal conditions in your environment.
24. If you see only the complete, the perfect, the absolute, the free, these conditions will manifest in your life; and if you train your mind to see and realize the spiritual ego, the I which is forever perfect and complete, harmonious; wholesome, and healthful conditions only will be manifested.
25. As thought is creative, and the truth is the highest and most perfect thought which anyone can think, it is self-evident that to think the truth is to create that which is true and it is again evident that when truth comes into being that which is not true must cease to be.
26. The Universal Mind is the totality of all mind which is in existence. Spirit is Mind, because spirit is intelligent. The words are, therefore, synonymous.
27. Realize that mind is universal. It is omnipresent. It exists everywhere. In other words, there is no place where it is not. It is, therefore, Universal.
28. People are, now, generally using the word Universal to indicate this Universal, creative principle; and the word Universal does convey the right meaning. Most people understand this word to mean something inside of themselves; this is exactly the case. It is our very life. With it we are alive. We come to exist. The minute the spirit enters the body, we are as the Universal. Therefore, spirit is really, all there is of us.
29. Now, the only activity which the spirit possesses is the power to think. Therefore, thought must be creative, because spirit is creative. This creative power is impersonal and your ability to think is your ability to control it and make use of it for the benefit of yourself and others.

17. To train the mind to see Truth only is to express true conditions only, our ability to do this will be an indication as to the progress we are making.
18. The absolute truth is that the I is perfect and complete; the real I is spiritual and is therefore always perfect; it is always abundant, free, and healthy. The flash of genius does have origin in the spiritual; it is inspired by the ego, the spiritual I which is one with the Universal Mind, and it is our ability to recognize this Unity which is the cause of all inspiration, all genius. These results are far reaching and have effect upon generations yet to come; they are the pillars of fire which mark the path that millions follow.
19. Truth is not the result of logical training or of experimentation, or even of observation; it is the product of a developed consciousness. Truth within a Caesar, manifests in a Caesar's deportment, in Caesar's life and Caesar's action; Caesar's influence upon social forms and progress. Your life and your actions and your influence in the world will depend upon the degree of truth which you are enabled to perceive, for truth will manifest in conduct only.
20. Truth manifests in character, and the character of a person, should be the interpretation of what to them is truth, and this will in turn be evidenced in the character of their possession. If a person is grateful for the drift of their fortune they are just as just to themselves as if they should allow rational truth, when it stands patent and irrefutable.
21. Our environment and the innumerable circumstances and accidents of our lives already exist in the subconscious personality which attracts to itself the mental and physical material which is congenial to its nature. Thus our future being determined from our present, and if there should be justice in any feature or phase of our personal life, we must look within for the cause, try to discover the mental fact which is responsible for the outward manifestation.
22. It is this truth which makes you free and it is the conscious knowledge of this truth which will enable you to achieve every blessing.

10. Remember, and this is one of the most wonderful statements to grasp.... remember that no matter what the situation is, no matter where it is, no matter who is affected, you have no patient but yourself; you have nothing to do but to convince yourself of the truth which you desire to see manifested.
11. This is an exact scientific statement in accordance with every system of Metaphysics in existence, and no permanent results are ever secured in any other way.
12. Every form of concentration, forming Mental Images, Argument, and Auto-Suggestion are all simply methods by which you are enabled to realize the Truth.
13. If you desire to help someone, to create some form of abundance, freedom or success, the correct method is to intend to help the person; the intention to help them is entirely sufficient, as this puts you in mental touch with the person. Then bring into your own mind any belief of abundance, freedom, health, well-being, success and whatever the need might be. As soon as you have succeeded in doing this the result will have been accomplished, and the person will be free.
14. But remember that thought is creative and consequently every time you allow your thought to rest on any harmonious condition, you must realize that such conditions are real, they have a reality, that spirit is the only reality and it is always perfect.
15. All thought is a form of energy, a rate of vibration, but a thought of the Truth is the highest rate of vibration known and consequently destroys every form of non truth in exactly the same way that light destroys darkness; no form of non truth can exist when the Truth appears, so that your entire mental work consists in coming into an understanding of the Truth. This will enable you to create every form of abundance, freedom and health of any kind.
16. We can get an understanding of the truth only from the world within; the world within is absolute; Truth is absolute. We must therefore find it in the world within.

11. Let us see how the action of the subconscious mind over the body differs. Your skin may become not complete; thousands of cells begin the work of healing at once; in a few days or a few weeks the work is complete. You may even have a bone that has become not whole. No surgeon on earth can weld the parts together (I am not referring to the insertion of rods or other devices to strengthen or replace bones). They may set the bone for you, and the subjective mind will immediately begin the process of welding the parts together, and in a short time the bone is as solid as it ever was. You may swallow something that is really not good for your immediate health; the subjective mind will immediately discover the danger and make swift efforts to eliminate it. You may become infected with a non healthy bacteria; the subjective will at once commence to build a wall around the infected area and destroy the infection by absorbing it in the white blood corpuscles which it supplies for the purpose.
12. These processes of the subconscious mind usually proceed without our personal knowledge or direction, and so long as we leave them alone the result is perfect, and, as these millions of repair cells are all intelligent and respond to our thought, they are often freed and rendered potent by our thoughts of courage, certainty, and calmness. They are like a company of workers, ready to start an important piece of work, and every time they get started on the undertaking a flow is established, and plans stay consistent, they then get courageous and complete the work.
13. The way to health is founded on the law of vibration, which is the basis of all science, and this law is brought into operation by the mind, the world within. It is a matter of individual effort and practice. Our world of power is within; if we are wise we shall invest our time and effort in trying to deal with causes as we find them in the world within, which is an internal, the source.
14. We shall always find the cause in the world within; by changing the cause, we change the effect.

27. For your exercise this week, concentrate on the Truth. Try to realize that the Truth shall make you free, that is, you can have perfect success when you learn to apply the scientifically correct thought methods and principles. Realize that you are externalizing in your environment your inherent soul potencies. Realize that the Silence offers an ever available and almost unlimited opportunity for awakening the highest conception of Truth. Try to comprehend that Omnipotence itself is absolute silence, all else is change, activity, limitation. Silent thought concentration is therefore the true method of reaching, awakening, and then expressing the wonderful potential power of the world within.

The possibilities of thought training are infinite, its consequence eternal, and some take the pains to direct their thinking into channels that will do them good. - Inspired by Marden

21. In the last analysis there are but these two classes; all people will have to take their place on one side or the other; they can choose to go forward; we live in a world where all is motion; it is this attempt to move forward that gives sanction and force to deliberate and ever more equal codes of law.
22. That we are in a period of stability is evidenced by the rest which is everywhere apparent. The praise of humanity is as a roll of a beautiful singing group, commencing with high and peaceful notes and decreasing until the sound is sent to the clear skies of earth.
23. The free thinkers are calling joyously to each other. What of the day? The safety and security of the position they occupy and attempt to hold is becoming more apparent every hour. The dawn of a new era has begun.
24. The issue between the old regime and the new, the crux of the social situation, is entirely a question of conviction in the minds of the people as to the nature of the Universe. When they realize that the transcendent force of spirit or mind of the Cosmos is within each individual, it will be possible to frame laws that shall consider the liberties and rights of all.
25. As long as the people regard the Cosmic power as a power natural to humanity, so long will it be comparatively easy for a supposed lower class to rule by natural right. The real interest of democracy is therefore to exalt, emancipate and recognize the divinity of the human spirit. To recognize that all power is from within. That every human being has the same power as any other human being. Herein is the gist of the social gift of every form of common and personal equality, the freeing of the creative doctrine of natural election.
26. The Divine Mind is the Universal Mind; it is the same always, it treats everyone equally; it acts through sheer truth; The Divine Mind makes favors every individual the same; but when the individual understands and realizes their Unity with the Universal principle they will appear to be favored because they will have found the source of all health, all wealth, and all power.

17. Aspire to the highest possible attainments in anything you may undertake, for the mind forces are ever ready to lend themselves to a purposeful will in the effort to crystallize its highest aspirations into acts, accomplishments, and events. An illustration of how these mind forces operate is suggested by the method in which all our habits are formed. We do a thing, then do it again, and again, and again, until it becomes easy and perhaps almost automatic; and the same rule applies in forming any and all good habits; we start doing a thing, and then seek it again, and again until we are entirely bound to it; and if we do succeed now and then, we should by all means gain hope, for the law is absolute and invincible and gives us credit for every effort and every success, even though our efforts and successes are perhaps not constant.
18. There is total freedom to what this law can do for you; dare to believe in your own idea; remember that Nature is plastic to the ideal; think of the ideal as an already accomplished fact.
19. The real field of life is one of ideas; it is being played out by all; on the one side is the constructive and creative thought, on the other side the non constructive and non positive thought; the creative thought is dominated by an ideal, the non active thought does not see the underlying truth of things. On both sides are people of science, people of letters, and people of affairs.
20. On the creative side are people who spend their time in laboratories, or over microscopes and telescopes, side by side with the people who dominate the commercial, political, and scientific world; on the positive side are people who spend their time investigating new and better ways, people who understand what knowledge is, states people who know and do what is right, and all the people who prefer to progress, who are eternally looking forward, who see the world without, and know the world within.

6. Large ideas have a tendency to eliminate all smaller ideas so that it is well to hold ideas large enough to counteract and destroy all small or undesirable tendencies. This will clear your path. You also become conscious of a larger world of thought, thereby increasing your mental capacity as well as placing yourself in position to accomplish something of value.
7. This is one of the secrets of success, one of the methods of organizing victory, one of the accomplishments of the Master-mind. The Master-mind thinks big thoughts. The creative energies of mind find handling large situations just as easily as small ones. Mind is just as much present in the Infinitely large as in the Infinitely small.
8. When we realize these facts concerning mind we understand how we may bring ourselves any condition by creating the corresponding conditions in our consciousness, because everything which is held for any length of time in the consciousness, eventually becomes impressed upon the subconscious and thus becomes a pattern which the creative energy will weave into the life and environment of the individual.
9. In this way conditions are produced and we find that our lives are simply the reflection of our predominant thoughts, our mental attitude; we see then that the science of correct thinking is the one science, that includes all other sciences.
10. From this science we learn that every thought creates an impression on the brain, that these impressions create mental tendencies, and these tendencies create character, ability and purpose, and that the combined action of character, ability and purpose determines the experiences with which we shall meet in life.
11. These experiences come to us through the law of attraction; through the action of this law we meet in the world without the experiences which correspond to our world within.
12. The predominant thought or the mental attitude is the magnet, and the law is that like attracts like, consequently the mental attitude will invariably attract such conditions as correspond to its nature.

1. The real secret of power is consciousness of power. The Universal Mind is unconditional; therefore, the more conscious we become of our unity with this mind, the more conscious we shall become of situations and freedom, and as we become emancipated or freed we come into a realization of the unconditional. We have become free!
2. As soon as we become conscious of the inexhaustible power in the world within, we begin to draw on this power and apply and develop the greater possibilities which this discernment has realized, because whatever we become conscious of, is invariably manifested in the objective world, is brought forth into tangible expression.
3. This is because the Infinite mind, which is the source from which all things proceed, is one and indivisible, and each individual is a channel whereby this Eternal Energy is being manifested. Our ability to think is our ability to act upon this Universal substance, and what we think is what is created or produced in the objective world.
4. The result of this discovery is nothing less than marvelous, and means that mind is extraordinary in quality, limitless in quantity, and contains possibilities without number. To become conscious of this power is to become a live wire; it has the same effect as placing an ordinary wire in contact with a wire that is charged. The Universal is the live wire. It carries power sufficient to meet every situation which may arise in the life of every individual. When the individual mind touches the Universal Mind it receives all the power it requires. This is the world within. All science recognizes the reality of this world, and all power is contingent upon our recognition of this world.
5. The ability to create perfect conditions depends upon mental action, and mental action depends upon consciousness of power; therefore, the more conscious we become of our unity with the source of all power, the greater will be our power to control and master every condition.

8. When you begin to perceive that the essence of the Universal is within yourself -- is you -- you begin to do things; you begin to feel your power; it is the fuel which fires the imagination; which lights the torch of inspiration; which gives vitality to thought; which enables you to connect with all the invisible forces of the Universe. It is this power which will enable you to plan courageously, to execute masterfully.
9. But perception will come only in the Silence; this seems to be the condition required for all great purposes. You are a visualizing entity. Imagination is your workshop. It is here that your ideal is to be visualized.
10. As a perfect understanding of the nature of this power is a primary condition for its manifestation, visualize the entire method over and over again, so that you may use it whenever occasion requires. The infinity of wisdom is to follow the method whereby we may have the inspiration of the omnipotent Universal Mind on demand at any time.
11. We can recognize this world within, and so include it in our consciousness, and it will be the basic fact of all existence; and when we learn to recognize it in ourselves, and in all persons, events, things and circumstances we shall have found the place of all good which we are told is within us.
12. Our successes are a result of the operation of exactly the same principle; the principle is perfect and permanent; its operation is exact, it is the same always; if we think abundance, freedom, harmony, we shall find their fruits on every hand; if we think wealth, happiness or health, the thought messengers will carry the summons as readily as any other kind of thought and the result will be just as certain. If we joyfully anticipate a coming reward, we shall be able to say, the thing I wanted has come upon me; if we think kindly or intelligently we shall thus attract to ourselves the results of our intelligence.

8. The power to create depends entirely upon spiritual power; there are three steps, idealization, visualization and materialization. Every captain of industry depends upon this power exclusively. In an article in Everybody's Magazine, Henry M. Flagler, the Standard Oil multi-millionaire, admitted that the secret of his success was his power to see a thing in its completeness. The following conversation with the reporter shows his power of idealization, concentration and visualization, all spiritual powers:
9. Did you actually vision to yourself the whole thing? I mean, did you, or could you, really close your eyes and see the tracks? And the trains running? and hear the whistles blowing: Did you go as far as that? Yes. How clearly? Very clearly.
10. Here we have a vision of the law, we see cause and effect, we see that thought necessarily precedes and determines action. If we are wise, we shall come into a realization of the tremendous fact that no arbitrary condition can exist for a moment, and that human experience is the result of an orderly and harmonious sequence.
11. The successful business person is more often than not an idealist and is ever striving for higher and higher standards. The subtle forces of thought as they crystallize in our daily moods is what constitutes life.
12. Thought is the plastic material with which we build images of our growing conception of life. Use determines its existence. As in all other things our ability to recognize it and use it properly is the necessary condition for attainment.
13. Mature wealth is the forerunner of honor and success, because we can permanently retain anything which we do merit and which we have earned.
14. The conditions with which we meet in the world without, correspond to the conditions which we find in the world within. This is brought about by the law of attraction. How then shall we determine what is to enter into the world within?

Part Fifteen - Page 5

29. In the physical world there is a law of compensation which is that the appearance of a given amount of energy anywhere means the disappearance of the same amount somewhere else, and so we find that we can get only what we give; if we pledge ourselves to a certain action we must be prepared to assume the responsibility for the development of that action. The subconscious can only accept. It takes us at our word; we have asked for something; we are now to receive it; we have made our bed, we are now to lie in it; the die has been cast; the threads will carry out the pattern we have made.
30. For this reason Insight must be exercised so that the thought which we entertain contains only mental, moral and physical seeds which we do wish objectified in our lives.
31. Insight is a faculty of the mind whereby we are enabled to examine facts and conditions at long range, a kind of human telescope; it enables us to understand all aspects, in any undertaking.
32. Insight enables us to be prepared for the situations which we shall meet; we can therefore overcome them easily.
33. Insight enables us to plan to advantage and turn our thought and attention in the right direction, into channels which can yield a definite return.
34. Insight is therefore absolutely essential for the development of any great achievement, and with it we may enter, explore and possess any mental field.
35. Insight is a product of the world within and is developed in the Silence, by concentration.

24. A scientific understanding of this principle will explain the wonderful results which are secured through the power of meditation. The results which are secured in this way are brought about by ordinary dispensations of providence, and they are the result of the operation of a perfectly natural law. It is, therefore, secular and open.
25. There are some who are ready to enter into the discipline necessary to think correctly, because it is evident that right thinking has brought success.
26. Thought is the only reality; conditions are but the outward manifestations; as the thought changes, all outward or material conditions must change in order to be in harmony with their creator, which is thought.
27. But the thought must be clear cut, steady, fixed, definite; you can only take one step at a time, you can spend twenty or thirty years of your life building up positive conditions as the result of positive thoughts, and your life will be wonderful.
28. If you enter into the discipline necessary to bring about a radical change in your life, you must do so deliberately, after giving the matter careful thought and full consideration, and then you must always stand by and uphold your decision.
29. This discipline, this change of thought, this mental attitude will bring you the material things which are necessary for your highest and best welfare, and will bring health and harmonious conditions generally.
30. If you wish harmonious conditions in your life, you must develop an harmonious mental attitude.
31. Your world without will be a reflection of your world within.

Part Twelve - Study Questions with Answers

111. How may any purpose in life be best accomplished?
     Through a scientific understanding of the spiritual nature of thought.
112. What three steps are absolutely essential?
     The knowledge of our power, the courage to dare, the faith to do.
113. How is the practical working knowledge secured?
     By an understanding of Natural laws.
114. What is the reward of an understanding of these laws?
     A conscious realization of our ability to adjust ourselves to Divine and constant principle.
115. What will indicate the degree of success with which we meet?
     The degree in which we realize that we must cooperate with the Infinite.
116. What is the principle which gives thought its dynamic power?
     The Law of Attraction which rests on vibration, which in turn rests upon the law of love. Thought impregnated with love becomes invincible.
117. Why is this law always in effect?
     Because it is a Natural law. All Natural laws are always in effect, constant and act with mathematical exactitude. There is only the same effect everytime.
118. Why then is it easy for some to find the solution to their situations in life?
     For the same reason that it is easy for some to find the correct solution to a difficult mathematical problem. The operator is informed and experienced.
119. Why is it possible for the mind to grasp an entirely new idea?
     We have corresponding vibratory brain cells capable of receiving the idea.
120. How is wisdom secured?
     By concentration; it is an unfoldment; it comes from within.

25. The intention governs the attention. Power comes through repose. It is by concentration that deep thoughts, wise speech, and all forces of high potentiality are accomplished.
26. It is in the Silence that you get into touch with the Omnipotent power of the subconscious mind from which all power is evolved.
27. Those who desire wisdom, power, or permanent success of any kind will find it only within; it is an unfoldment. The unthinking may conclude that the silence is very simple and easily attained, but it should be remembered that only in absolute silence may one come into contact with Divinity itself; may learn of the unchangeable law and open for themselves the channels by which persistent practice and concentration lead to perfection.
28. This week go to the same room, take the same chair, the same position as previously; be sure to relax, let go, both mentally and physically; always do this; always do any mental work when calm and relaxed; see that there are relaxed muscles and nerves, that you are entirely comfortable. Now realize your unity with omnipotence; get into touch with this power, come into a deep and vital understanding, appreciation, and realization of the fact that your ability to think is your ability to act upon the Universal Mind, and bring it into manifestation, realize that it will meet any and every requirement; that you have exactly the same potential ability which any individual ever did have or ever will have, because each is but an expression or manifestation of the One, all are parts of the whole, they are the same in kind and quality, the only difference being one of degree.

Thought cannot conceive of anything that may not be brought to expression. He who first uttered it may be only the suggester, but the doer will appear. - Wilson.

Part Twelve - Page 2

9. This practical working method can come to you when you learn that the only real power which you can have is the power to adjust yourself to Divine and permanent principles. The Infinite is permanent and perfect, and you can come into an understanding of Natural laws. The reward of this understanding is a conscious realization of your ability to adjust your thought faculties with the Universal Thought which is Omnipresent. Your ability to cooperate with this Omnipotence will indicate the degree of success with which you meet.
10. The power of thought has some truths which are fascinating, and when followed the results are helpful.
11. Of course, peace, love, and all positive thoughts produce a crop after their kind; those who harbor thoughts of this kind must inevitably reap what they have sown.
12. Again, there are the Truth seekers who nibble on the proofs and demonstration obtained from focusing on an ideal. They close their mental doors and soak themselves in the most rejuvenating currents which can be found in the world within. They understand that it is the ability to become positive, receptive and active, and thus charge themselves full of all vital force, which enables them to bring about these vibratory thought forms.
13. In some instances, hypnotism is positively helpful to the subject as well as the operator. One familiar with the laws governing in the mental world would respect the will of another, for by so doing, they will gradually (but surely) invest themselves with more power.
14. There is great fascination in a true understanding of the world of power within, a power which increases with use; is permanent; which not only is potent as an agency to bring about the cause for future accuracy and results of right thinking, but is an agency keeping us safe and secure, and finally is an actual creative force with which we can build new conditions and new environment.

Part Ten - Page 5

19. If your thought is in harmony with the creative Principle of Nature, it is in tune with the Infinite Mind, and it will form the circuit, it will return to you in full; It is possible for you to think thoughts that are in tune with the Infinite, and when there is polarity, the circuit is formed. What, then, is the result? What is the result when a dynamo is generating electricity, the circuit is connected and there is an outlet? The dynamo continues operating.
20. It will be exactly the same with you, if you entertain thoughts which are in accordance with the Infinite and can therefore be polarized; there is a circuit, you are connected, the thoughts cling to you, inspire you, excite you, and finally bring about health and extended life; the physician may not diagnose the case exactly in this way, they may give it some fancy name which has been manufactured for the various cures which are the result of right thinking, but the cause is the same nevertheless.
21. Constructive thought must necessarily be creative, but creative thought must be harmonious, and this invites all constructive and peaceful thought. Wisdom, strength, courage and all harmonious conditions are the result of power and we have seen that all power is from within; likewise, every abundance, freedom and beneficial circumstance is the result of strength, and strength is simply presence of power; it comes from somewhere, it is something -- this is the result of developed power, and this is accomplished in exactly the same manner that all power is developed, by exercise.
22. This exercise consists in making an application of your knowledge. You must make the application. Abundance will not come to you out of the sky, neither will it drop into your lap, but a conscious realization of the law of attraction and the intention to bring it into operation for a certain, definite and specific purpose, and the will to carry out this purpose will bring about the materialization of your desire by a natural law of transference. If you are in business, it will increase and develop along regular channels, or possibly new and unusual channels of distribution will be opened and when the law becomes fully operative, you will find that the things you seek are seeking you.

12. You have found that the I is spiritual, it must necessarily then always be perfect, the affirmation. I am truly grateful to be whole, perfect, strong, powerful, loving, harmonious and happy is therefore an exact scientific statement.
13. Thought is a spiritual activity and spirit is creative, therefore the result of holding this thought in mind, must necessarily bring about conditions in harmony with the thought.
14. If you require Wealth a realization of the fact that the I in you is one with the Universal mind which is all substance, and is Omnipotent, will assist you in bringing into operation the law of attraction which will bring you into vibration with those forces which make for success and bring about conditions of power and affluence in direct proportion with the character and purpose of your affirmation.
15. Visualization is the mechanism of the attachment which you require. Visualization is a product of the imagination, and is therefore a product of the subjective mind, the world within. It therefore possesses vitality; it will grow. The thing visualized will manifest itself in form. The mechanism is perfect; it was created by the Master Architect who doeth all things well, many operators, through practice and determination have developed this power and are experienced and efficient at it.
16. If you require Love try to realize that the only way to get love is by giving it, that the more you give the more you will get, and the only way in which you can give it, is to fill yourself with it, until you become a magnet. The method was explained in another lesson.
17. Those who have learned to bring the greatest spiritual truths into touch with the so-called lesser things of life have discovered the secret of the solution of their situation. One is always quickened, made more thoughtful, by their nearness of approach to great ideas, great events, great natural objects, and great people. Lincoln is said to have begotten in all who came near him the feeling awakened when one approaches a mountain, and this sense asserts itself most keenly when one comes to realize that they have laid hold upon things that are eternal, the power of Truth.

Part Nine - Page 1

1. There are only three things which can possibly be desired in the world without and each of them can be found in the world within. The secret of finding them is simply to apply the proper mechanism of attachment to the omnipotent power to which each individual has access.
2. The three things which all humankind desires and which are necessary for their highest expression and complete development are Health, Wealth and Love. All will admit that Health is absolutely essential; no one can be happy if the physical body is not healthy. All will not so readily admit that Wealth is necessary, but all must admit that a sufficient supply at least is necessary, and what would be considered sufficient for one, would be considered absolutely not enough for another; and as Nature provides abundantly, resourcefully, lavishly, we realize that any abundance or freedom is only the freedom which has been made by a genuine method of distribution.
3. All will probably admit that Love is the third, or maybe some will say the first essential necessary to the happiness of humankind; at any rate, those who possess all three, Health, Wealth, and Love, find nothing else which can be added to their cup of happiness.
4. We have found that the Universal substance is All Health, All Substance and All Love and that the mechanism of attachment whereby we can consciously connect with this Infinite supply is in our method of thinking. To think correctly is therefore to enter into the Secret Place of the Most High.
5. What shall we think? If we know this we shall have found the proper mechanism of attachment which will relate us to Whatsoever things we desire. This mechanism may seem very simple when I give it to you, but read on; you will find that it is in reality the Master-Key, the Alladin's lamp, if you please; you will find that it is the foundation, the imperative condition, the absolute law of well-doing, which means, well-being.
