Intuition or Guidance

There is nothing too great of accomplishment for the man who knows the power of his word, and who follows his intuitive leads. By the word he starts in action unseen forces and can rebuild his body or remold his affairs.

Nothing is too great an accomplishment for a man who knows the power of his word and follows his intuition. Through his word, he sets unseen forces in motion. He can rebuild his body or reshape his affairs.

It is, therefore, of the utmost importance to choose the right words, and the student carefully selects the affirmation he wishes to catapult into the invisible.

Choosing the right words is therefore extremely important. The student carefully chooses the affirmation they want to catapult into the invisible.

He knows that God is his supply, that there is a supply for every demand, and that his spoken word releases this supply.

He knows that God is his source, that every need can be met, and that his spoken word releases what he needs.

“Ask and ye shall receive.”

“Ask and you shall receive.”

Man must make the first move. “Draw nigh to God and He will draw nigh to you.”

People must make the first move. “Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.”

I have often been asked just how to make a demonstration.

People have often asked me exactly how to make a demonstration.

I reply: “Speak the word and then do not do anything until you get a definite lead.” Demand the lead, saying, “Infinite Spirit, reveal to me the way, let me know if there is anything for me to do.”

I reply: “Speak the word, then do nothing until you receive clear guidance.” Ask for guidance, saying, “Infinite Spirit, show me the way. Let me know if there is anything I need to do.”

The answer will come through intuition (or hunch); a chance remark from someone, or a passage in a book, etc., etc. The answers are sometimes quite startling in their exactness. For example: A woman desired a large sum of money. She spoke the words: “Infinite Spirit, open the way for my immediate supply, let all that is mine by divine right now reach me, in great avalanches of abundance.” Then she added: “Give me a definite lead, let me know if there is anything for me to do.”

The answer will come through intuition (or a hunch), a chance remark from someone, a passage in a book, and so on. Sometimes the answers are startlingly precise. For example, a woman wanted a large sum of money. She said: “Infinite Spirit, open the way for me to receive what I need immediately. Let all that is mine by divine right reach me now, in great avalanches of abundance.” Then she added: “Give me a clear lead. Let me know if there is anything I need to do.”

The thought came quickly, “Give a certain friend” (who had helped her spiritually) “a hundred dollars.” She told her friend, who said, “Wait and get another lead, before giving it.” So she waited, and that day met a woman who said to her, “I gave someone a dollar today; it was just as much for me, as it would be for you to give someone a hundred.”

The thought came quickly: “Give a certain friend a hundred dollars.” This friend had helped her spiritually. She told her friend, who said, “Wait for another sign before giving it.” So she waited. That day, she met a woman who said, “I gave someone a dollar today. That was just as much for me as it would be for you to give someone a hundred dollars.”

This was indeed an unmistakable lead, so she knew she was right in giving the hundred dollars. It was a gift which proved a great investment, for shortly after that, a large sum of money came to her in a remarkable way.

This was a clear sign, so she knew she was right to give the hundred dollars. Her gift proved to be a great investment. Soon afterward, a large sum of money came to her in a remarkable way.

Giving opens the way for receiving. In order to create activity in finances, one should give. Tithing or giving one-tenth of one’s income, is an old Jewish custom, and is sure to bring increase. Many of the richest men in this country have been tithers, and I have never known it to fail as an investment.

Giving opens the way to receiving. To get money flowing, you should give. Tithing, or giving one-tenth of your income, is an old Jewish custom. It is sure to bring an increase. Many of the richest men in this country have tithed. I have never known tithing to fail as an investment.

The tenth-part goes forth and returns blessed and multiplied. But the gift or tithe must be given with love and cheerfulness, for “God loveth a cheerful giver.” Bills should be paid cheerfully; all money should be sent forth fearlessly and with a blessing.

The tenth you give goes out and returns blessed and multiplied. But a gift or tithe must be given with love and joy, because “God loves a cheerful giver.” Bills should be paid cheerfully. All money should be sent out without fear and with a blessing.

This attitude of mind makes man master of money. It is his to obey, and his spoken word then opens vast reservoirs of wealth.

This attitude makes a person the master of money. Money obeys him, and his spoken word opens vast reserves of wealth.

Man, himself, limits his supply by his limited vision. Sometimes the student has a great realization of wealth, but is afraid to act.

People limit their own supply through their limited vision. Sometimes a student gains a powerful realization of wealth but is afraid to act.

The vision and action must go hand in hand, as in the case of the man who bought the fur-lined overcoat.

Vision and action must go hand in hand, as they did for the man who bought the fur-lined overcoat.

A woman came to me asking me to “speak the word” for a position. So I demanded: “Infinite Spirit, open the way for this woman’s right position.” Never ask for just “a position”; ask for the right position, the place already planned in Divine Mind, as it is the only one that will give satisfaction.

A woman came to me and asked me to “speak the word” for a job. So I demanded: “Infinite Spirit, open the way for this woman’s right position.” Never ask for just “a position.” Ask for the right position, the one already planned in Divine Mind. Only that position will satisfy you.

I then gave thanks that she had already received, and that it would manifest quickly. Very soon, she had three positions offered her, two in New York and one in Palm Beach, and she did not know which to choose. I said, “Ask for a definite lead.”

I then gave thanks that she had already received it and that it would appear quickly. Soon, she was offered three jobs: two in New York and one in Palm Beach. She did not know which to choose. I said, “Ask for clear guidance.”

The time was almost up and was still undecided, when one day, she telephoned, “When I woke up this morning, I could smell Palm Beach.” She had been there before and knew its balmy fragrance.

Time was almost up, and she was still undecided. Then one day, she called and said, “When I woke up this morning, I could smell Palm Beach.” She had been there before and knew its warm, soothing scent.

I replied: “Well, if you can smell Palm Beach from here, it is certainly your lead.” She accepted the position, and it proved a great success. Often one’s lead comes at an unexpected time.

I replied: “Well, if you can smell Palm Beach from here, it is certainly your lead.” She took the job, and it was a great success. Often, a lead comes at an unexpected time.

One day, I was walking down the street, when I suddenly felt a strong urge to go to a certain bakery, a block or two away.

One day, I was walking down the street when I suddenly felt a strong urge to visit a bakery a block or two away.

The reasoning mind resisted, arguing, “There is nothing there that you want.”

The reasoning mind resisted, saying, “There is nothing there you want.”

However, I had learned not to reason, so I went to the bakery, looked at everything, and there was certainly nothing there that I wanted, but coming out I encountered a woman I had thought of often, and who was in great need of the help which I could give her.

However, I had learned not to reason, so I went to the bakery and looked at everything. There was certainly nothing there I wanted. But as I came out, I met a woman I had often thought about. She badly needed the help I could give her.

So often, one goes for one thing and finds another.

So often, you go looking for one thing and find another.

Intuition is a spiritual faculty and does not explain, but simply points the way.

A person often receives a lead during a “treatment.” The idea that comes may seem quite irrelevant, but some of God’s leadings are “mysterious.”

A person often receives guidance during a “treatment.” The idea that comes may seem completely unrelated, but some of God’s guidance is “mysterious.”

In the class, one day, I was treating that each individual would receive a definite lead. A woman came to me afterwards, and said: “While you were treating, I got the hunch to take my furniture out of storage and get an apartment.” The woman had come to be treated for health. I told her I knew in getting a home of her own, her health would improve, and I added, “I believe your trouble, which is a congestion, has come from having things stored away. Congestion of things causes congestion in the body. You have violated the law of use, and your body is paying the penalty.”

One day in class, I gave a spiritual treatment for each person to receive clear guidance. Afterward, a woman came to me and said: “While you were treating, I had a hunch. I should take my furniture out of storage and get an apartment.” The woman had come for treatment for her health. I told her I knew her health would improve when she had a home of her own. I added, “I believe your trouble, a congestion, comes from keeping things in storage. A buildup of things causes a buildup in the body. You have violated the law of use, and your body is paying the penalty.”

So I gave thanks that “Divine order was established in her mind, body and affairs.”

So I gave thanks that “divine order was established in her mind, body, and affairs.”

People little dream of how their affairs react on the body. There is a mental correspondence for every disease. A person might receive instantaneous healing through the realization of his body being a perfect idea in Divine Mind, and, therefore, whole and perfect, but if he continues his destructive thinking, hoarding, hating, fearing, condemning, the disease will return.

People rarely realize how their affairs affect their bodies. Every disease has a mental counterpart. A person might be healed instantly by realizing that their body is a perfect idea in Divine Mind. It is therefore whole and perfect. But if the person continues thinking destructively, hoarding, hating, fearing, and condemning, the disease will return.

Jesus Christ knew that all sickness came from sin, but admonished the leper after the healing, to go and sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon him.

Jesus Christ knew that all sickness came from sin. But after healing the leper, he warned him to sin no more, or something worse would happen to him.

So man’s soul (or subconscious mind) must be washed whiter than snow, for permanent healing; and the metaphysician is always delving deep for the “correspondence.”

So a person’s soul (or subconscious mind) must be washed whiter than snow for permanent healing. The metaphysician is always searching deeply for the “correspondence.”

Jesus Christ said, “Condemn not lest ye also be condemned.”

Jesus Christ said, “Do not condemn others, or you too will be condemned.”

“Judge not, lest ye be judged.”

“Do not judge, or you will be judged.”

Many people have attracted disease and unhappiness through condemnation of others.

Many people have attracted illness and unhappiness by condemning others.

What man condemns in others, he attracts to himself.

What you condemn in others, you attract to yourself.

For example: A friend came to me in anger and distress, because her husband had deserted her for another woman. She condemned the other woman, and said continually, “She knew he was a married man, and had no right to accept his attentions.”

For example, a friend came to me angry and upset because her husband had left her for another woman. She blamed the other woman and kept saying, “She knew he was married and had no right to accept his attention.”

I replied, “Stop condemning the woman, bless her, and be through with the situation, otherwise, you are attracting the same thing to yourself.”

I replied, “Stop condemning the woman, bless her, and put the situation behind you. Otherwise, you are attracting the same thing to yourself.”

She was deaf to my words, and a year or two later, became deeply interested in a married man, herself.

She ignored my words, and a year or two later, she became deeply interested in a married man herself.

Man picks up a live-wire whenever he criticises or condemns, and may expect a shock.

Indecision is a stumbling-block in many a pathway. In order to overcome it, make the statement, repeatedly, “I am always under direct inspiration; I make right decisions, quickly.”

Indecision is an obstacle in many people's lives. To overcome it, repeat this statement: “I am always guided by direct inspiration. I make the right decisions quickly.”

These words impress the subconscious, and soon one finds himself awake and alert, making his right moves without hesitation. I have found it destructive to look to the psychic plane for guidance, as it is the plane of many minds and not “The One Mind.”

These words make an impression on the subconscious. Soon, you find yourself awake and alert, making the right moves without hesitation. I have found it destructive to seek guidance from the psychic plane. That is because it is the plane of many minds, not “The One Mind.”

As man opens his mind to subjectivity, he becomes a target for destructive forces. The psychic plane is the result of man’s mortal thought, and is on the “plane of opposites.” He may receive either good or bad messages.

The science of numbers and the reading of horoscopes, keep man down on the mental (or mortal) plane, for they deal only with the Karmic path.

Numerology and horoscope reading keep people on the mental (or mortal) plane because they deal only with the Karmic path.

I know of a man who should have been dead, years ago, according to his horoscope, but he is alive and a leader of one of the biggest movements in this country for the uplift of humanity.

I know a man whose horoscope said he should have died years ago. But he is alive and leads one of the largest movements in this country for the betterment of humanity.

It takes a very strong mind to neutralize a prophecy of evil. The student should declare, “Every false prophecy shall come to naught; every plan my Father in heaven has not planned, shall be dissolved and dissipated, the divine idea now comes to pass.”

It takes a very strong mind to overcome a prophecy of evil. The student should declare, “Every false prophecy will come to nothing. Every plan my Father in heaven has not made will be dissolved and scattered. The divine idea now comes to pass.”

However, if any good message has ever been given one, of coming happiness, or wealth, harbor and expect it, and it will manifest sooner or later, through the law of expectancy.

However, if you have ever received a good message about future happiness or wealth, hold onto it and expect it. Sooner or later, that happiness or wealth will appear through the law of expectancy.

Man’s will should be used to back the universal will. “I will that the will of God be done.”

We should use our will to support the universal will. “I want God’s will to be done.”

It is God’s will to give every man, every righteous desire of his heart, and man’s will should be used to hold the perfect vision, without wavering.

God wants to give everyone every righteous desire of their heart. Each person should use their will to hold the perfect vision without wavering.

The prodigal son said: “I will arise and go to my Father.”

The prodigal son said: “I will get up and go to my Father.”

It is, indeed, often an effort of the will to leave the husks and swine of mortal thinking. It is so much easier, for the average person, to have fear than faith; so faith is an effort of the will.

As man becomes spiritually awakened he recognizes that any external inharmony is the correspondence of mental inharmony. If he stumbles or falls, he may know he is stumbling or falling in consciousness.

As a person becomes spiritually awakened, they recognize that any outward discord reflects discord in their mind. If they stumble or fall, they may know that they are stumbling or falling in their consciousness.

One day, a student was walking along the street condemning someone in her thoughts. She was saying, mentally, “That woman is the most disagreeable woman on earth,” when suddenly three boy scouts rushed around the corner and almost knocked her over. She did not condemn the boy scouts, but immediately called on the law of forgiveness, and “saluted the divinity” in the woman. Wisdom’s ways are ways of pleasantness and all her paths are peace.

When one has made his demands upon the Universal, he must be ready for surprises. Everything may seem to be going wrong, when in reality, it is going right.

For example: A woman was told that there was no loss in divine mind, therefore, she could not lose anything which belonged to her; anything lost, would be returned, or she would receive its equivalent.

Several years previously, she had lost two thousand dollars. She had loaned the money to a relative during her lifetime, but the relative had died, leaving no mention of it in her will. The woman was resentful and angry, and as she had no written statement of the transaction, she never received the money, so she determined to deny the loss, and collect the two thousand dollars from the Bank of the Universal. She had to begin by forgiving the woman, as resentment and unforgiveness close the doors of this wonderful bank.

Several years earlier, she had lost two thousand dollars. She had lent the money to a relative, but the relative died without mentioning the loan in her will. The woman was resentful and angry. Because she had no written record of the loan, she never got the money back. So she decided to deny the loss and collect the two thousand dollars from the Bank of the Universal. She first had to forgive her relative, because resentment and unforgiveness close the doors of this wonderful bank.

She made this statement, “I deny loss, there is no loss in Divine Mind, therefore, I cannot lose the two thousand dollars, which belong to me by divine right.” “As one door shuts another door opens.”

She said, “I deny loss. There is no loss in Divine Mind, so I cannot lose the two thousand dollars that belong to me by divine right.” “When one door closes, another opens.”

She was living in an apartment house which was for sale; and in the lease was a clause, stating that if the house was sold, the tenants would be required to move out within ninety days.

She lived in an apartment building that was for sale. Her lease said that if the building sold, the tenants would have to move out within ninety days.

Suddenly, the landlord broke the leases and raised the rent. Again, injustice was on her pathway, but this time she was undisturbed. She blessed the landlord, and said, “As the rent has been raised, it means that I’ll be that much richer, for God is my supply.”

Suddenly, the landlord broke the leases and raised the rent. She faced injustice again, but this time she was not upset. She blessed the landlord and said, “Since the rent has gone up, I’ll be that much richer, because God provides for me.”

New leases were made out for the advanced rent, but by some divine mistake, the ninety days clause had been forgotten. Soon after, the landlord had an opportunity to sell the house. On account of the mistake in the new leases, the tenants held possession for another year.

New leases were drawn up with the higher rent, but by some divine mistake, the ninety-day clause was left out. Soon afterward, the landlord had a chance to sell the house. Because of the mistake in the new leases, the tenants kept possession for another year.

The agent offered each tenant two hundred dollars if he would vacate. Several families moved; three remained, including the woman. A month or two passed, and the agent again appeared. This time he said to the woman, “Will you break your lease for the sum of fifteen hundred dollars?” It flashed upon her, “Here comes the two thousand dollars.” She remembered having said to friends in the house, “We will all act together if anything more is said about leaving.” So her lead was to consult her friends.

The agent offered each tenant two hundred dollars to move out. Several families moved, but three remained, including the woman. A month or two passed, and the agent returned. This time he said to the woman, “Will you break your lease for fifteen hundred dollars?” It suddenly occurred to her, “Here comes the two thousand dollars.” She remembered what she had said to friends in the building: “We will all act together if anyone says anything more about leaving.” So she felt led to consult her friends.

These friends said: “Well, if they have offered you fifteen hundred they will certainly give two thousand.” So she received a check for two thousand dollars for giving up the apartment. It was certainly a remarkable working of the law, and the apparent injustice was merely opening the way for her demonstration.

It proved that there is no loss, and when man takes his spiritual stand, he collects all that is his from this great Reservoir of Good.

“I will restore to you the years the locusts have eaten.”

“I will give you back the years the locusts have eaten.”

The locusts are the doubts, fears, resentments and regrets of mortal thinking.

The locusts represent the doubts, fears, resentments, and regrets of human thinking.

These adverse thoughts, alone, rob man; for “No man gives to himself but himself, and no man takes away from himself, but himself.”

These harmful thoughts alone rob a person. For “No one gives to themselves but themselves, and no one takes away from themselves but themselves.”

Man is here to prove God and “to bear witness to the truth,” and he can only prove God by bringing plenty out of lack, and justice out of injustice.

People are here to prove God and “to bear witness to the truth.” They can only prove God by bringing plenty out of lack and justice out of injustice.

“Prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.”

“Put me to the test now,” says the Lord of hosts. “See if I will not open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough to receive it.”
