You cannot “get by” with “constructive criticism” because criticism is wrong and of the self. Edna Miriam treats when “it” comes into the outer “asking for help,” then she operates. You cannot head groups without taking responsibility for all who step into the “sound of your voice” aura. Your eyes, ears and mind must be open to listen, arms and fingers extended to feel people. You reach out and feel someone is “hot” or “mad” about it or one who is stone cold offended. It is better that another offends you than for you to offend the world. Law is just and impersonal. You must conform. When it hurts, it is self.

Clairvoyance and clairaudience operate from the glands in the head. You can tune into a vibration or move into the Light. You don’t see it as darkness ever. You do not think about or speak about darkness ever. This is how we return to God.

Many parents are too soft. When obeying Law has disgraced a child, leave him alone. You cannot be soft. No time is better to discipline or to reprimand than now. Do it right now! We all receive subliminal cues that are beneath the threshold of consciousness. Your subconscious machine records this.

Practice orientation until you can stand anywhere and point to North, South, West and East. The Cardinal points are our base of orientation with the Source. If you can’t tell where you are and when something should happen, you are off base. Edna Miriam owes her basic orientation to her kindergarten teacher in Tacoma City Schools. She said that you must have an orientation base to stand and look North. A wrong thought adulterates your thinking in the North area, your head, from which you consciously direct and control your life.

“ I don’t think” and “I can’t accept that” is repudiation, which expresses as opinion and prejudice. Say “is that so? Where did you get that? What’s the authority for that?” Be open and accepting. Take everything under advisement and consideration. This is how you remain open for something new. The Law of Repudiation has no sense. It is a great “nothing,” the great zero of life and the greatest obstruction to progress. Consciously to repudiate anything pushes everything away, love, money with the thing repudiated. Repudiation spreads like spores spread a fungus.

Ask for Wisdom. Edna Miriam did this at age twelve and knew that Wisdom was no good unless it makes you climb an octave higher to get Understanding. God gives Wisdom in the measure of your obedience to Law. Forgiveness is Ascension to a point high enough to see the other fellow’s blockage. Acceptance is not difficult, you just look into the Light. Do something about it: Open your sun centers of Light, speak declarations of lifting, speak the word, declare the Power for God, for them. To say, “A Shaft of Fire covers this,” lets God’s Power move through to lift.

You can’t argue anyone into the Kingdom of Heaven. You don’t argue to hold someone. Your ego must not intrude. Obedience and Forgiveness gain Understanding. When you ask, they give a Law. When you accept, you gain Wisdom. Ask for Wisdom first and obey the Wisdom given, no matter how hard it may be. Then Understanding comes.

When an idea comes through to give something or write a letter, or a larger idea about your work or God, an explosion takes place in that division of Mind that illumines your mind, giving the interpretation and Substance to do it. If it isn’t done on spiritual Power, it oozes away. Acting upon it immediately without rationalization is wise, therefore. Once you put it into form, write about it, it is put into your Star. Anyone with “ginger” does it this way.

The world misunderstands forgiveness. The act is to move up to your vision. “What is that to you? Follow me.” Keep your nose clean. This is the keynote for forty days of Soul Inventory. On 12th Night everyone is in prayer and we move up another octave on our chord. “How can I love God more?” pushes away Ascension, and you can fall several octaves at once. Forgiveness is a state of being.

In the morning, before you put your feet on the floor, ask, “Which one of me is taking over for the day?” I AM or little me? When another wants to argue, drop a seed of truth and run! For an arguing child, put cotton in your ears and say, “I am not interested in your opinions and prejudices. I couldn’t be less interested.” Edna Miriam would slap her boys with sarcasm: “My! The world is just waiting for you!”
Atomic radiation, fallout and the population explosion are good. Radiation is a natural offshoot of the Aquarian Age. We must drink an extra quart of water a day to overcome the effects. Radiation shall burn out of the bloodstream all latent diseases. This is the secret of radiation. Earth’s rotation is whirling radiation into the Sun.

A hesitant sacrifice means delayed results. We believe in an instantly available God. The question is, do you believe in being instantly available for God?

January 13, 1963

God is always active! Edna Miriam knew she had to prove this since she was twelve, to be active from the outer to the highest inner and all in one. She had to remember and be able to give it.

Now that the Gates are open, who will enter? Who will enter? Who shall claim the prize of God through Christ Jesus? It is not yet known what you shall be, nor has it appeared what you shall do. Not one smallest sacrifice has been overlooked.

No one is asked to live beyond Vows greater than he is able to bear. Obey all Laws given to you to the measure of the love you already have in praise of the Eternal, and all shall be established unto you. Is there anything to fear?

Laws must be given on different levels, and this is where they lead. No one is required to go higher than one’s present soul desires. We seek to awaken greater desires.

Treatment for deafness: Place palms of hands flat on the ears, and as you bring them out, cup them.

January 24, 1963

What Laws have you gained from your past that you can apply? Law is no good unless you obey it. Do not permit the subconscious to rule an inefficient metabolism by practicing wrong thinking. Watch your words and thoughts. “I am alive and alert with the Mind of God and my brain cells are ablaze with Light and Power.”

We cannot have inner conflicts about doing what we want to do. The subconscious does not give up. At the first sign of self-blame, stop, move up and say, “This is right. This is good. This is God’s way for me. I am doing God’s perfect work for me now, His way, according to His will.” Get rid of an old pattern with new ideas and statements.

January 27, 1963

Every small duty on earth is a gift to the Father, is raising a portion of earth for your prayers to be materialized on earth. Let the Mind of God be in you without thought of “doing too much,” if you would perfect your bodies. You think of the handicaps of the outer. Why not move up to do God’s work? It is a privilege to be a Creator god, not a detriment. From whence comes your strength? From the Supreme Father of All. Then make the strength that uses you, the Mind, as supreme as your prayers. Think of your service as given to God.

You have just a remnant of self. Obey. Only your selfishness and withholding of self create delay.

January 29, 1963

The voice is the final portion of the outer sheath called the physical body, and the soul, to be ascended. Egoic soul must listen to the voice of Oversoul before it can hear the Voice at the Source. Each idle word sets the height of the egoic soul’s Ascension, and any call or prayer, for only the vibration of the tone of voice that can ascend the soul in full soul flight. All of us have climbed, but tests continue until we lift the last idle words or thoughts from all hearts. All must be thoroughly “fumigated” of darkness and God has the fumigating Power. Obedience says, “I accept.” Forgiveness says, “I love.”

When someone blasphemes orally, it creates great darkness. When another criticizes the blasphemer, Law uses that one to draw the evil darkness to one place for lifting. It always fanned above one who has high vision so it can be lifted. We are supposed to be lifting both blasphemers and blasphemy day and night.

We are now cleaning the underbrush of all earth’s incompetence as quickly as possible.

February 7, 1963

Propaganda against everyone fills the atmosphere. Make a stand! They are vacuuming every word of cursing and brainwashing, even the Nazi leftovers. Lift everything that is affecting the masses, the children and dull ones who are so indifferent.

The Law does not aid and abet the self. It takes strong, vitalized declarations and standing to be healed. When it is past bearing, stand and shout it and you are healed. Every time you want to go “out,” you bind yourself to it. Use this. Call children by name and command them to move into their bodies in silence.

February 26, 1963

You are surrounded with a wall of the Blue Ray that is so thick that nothing of earth can penetrate unless you permit it. Your nerves are coated and protected. When you make up your mind that nothing another says touches you or enters you, you do not take it on! It causes resentment and hurt, then hate. Lift it completely! You lift from the toes and it is good. Then they will desist; it will be gone.

February 27, 1963

We ascend just as far as our surrender, obedience and devotion take us. We ascend as high as we can, but never reach the ultimate! As soon as you think you have surrendered, you form a block. Accept the fact that we have never ascended high enough. Sharp words that result in “I didn’t mean it that way” form an invisible block until your devotion reaches high enough to see where you missed the mark. You can kneel at the Source in devotion, then return and speak sharply.

Imagination, thinking, the mental life and emotions pull you down. All your earthly actions must be as high as your acts of devotion. The Father uses the Substance of our devotion and surrender.

Our words betray our tendencies to hold out: “I was built that way. You’ll have to take me as I am.” If you still need healing, you need to surrender. The slightest hint of a taint of blame blocks healing. Who, under God’s Laws, is responsible for your inner healing? Who can give it to you inside your body? Who is responsible for your body temple? Sometimes you lift another’s force or lift the other fellow to the point where you might suffer yourself, but this is not lasting. Don’t think that lifting another’s force can hurt your body, it is but a psychosomatic desire body pain you must lift. To lift another, you must know what is wrong, therefore you are hit physically because “seeing” the wrong, even at a glance, creates a debt, although the motive is pure.

To return to God, one must reach the point of expression where one is surrounded with the impenetrable twofold Ray of the Mother (balanced integration/disintegration). Say, “Here I am, Father,” and see only Light and devotion. That is the Law. The taints of emotion, imagination, thinking cannot touch your nerves then. The nerves quiver from the high vibration when you call upon the Source. You must maintain your high contact during outer experiences to invoke the Light instantly.

Our treatments are wiping out the effects of propaganda. We must speak the treatment words aloud. When you reach a block, you don’t “die” or become ill, you just suffer on through it. Blame is the most subtle taint and blocks the release of platelets, which become frozen. Blame sidesteps your responsibility to the Source. When your desire is burning, you do it. Surrender, obedience, devotion and forgiveness are our key words for Lent. The minute you reach your “top,” you die out at the top. “No man can give me more to do than God can perform as me.” Blame is illegal. “I can last one day longer than anything that comes to me.”

A healer may say you must do something to be healed, the Church says you must offer penance, but we say you must give up something inside. This all Law, because some blocks to healing must exist: Wrong seeing, thinking, emotions, wrong seeing of evil instead of Light. Edna Miriam hurts when one of her people reaches a blind spot. Jesus wept. The person who repudiates truth blocks the Power coming through when the platelets are loosed to flow through the bloodstream. Platelets freeze on pride and blame, which run a close race for subtlety. A block is any feeling of self.

When something comes to you, reach up with your left hand to the Beloved — hold it in your right hand to do. If it is something violent, put it in a pitcher in your right hand and lift it to God as quickly as possible. When “it” hits the body, it must be lifted and returns as Power. No matter how greatly one achieves, the pole remains slippery.

“ You cannot do it alone.” You must take your loved ones with you. The ones you must take are those who hate you the most. That doesn’t mean you make them your bedfellows or not say, “This is enough.”

Ascension is open to all, yet how long it takes depends on the greatness of your sacrifice. You must gather each portion, whether she is conscious or unconscious of it. When you meet one who is like a sister (or brother), hold her in prayer forever.

Consecrate yourselves to the Source and truly you shall have the dream desires of your hearts fulfilled in due season. Power is released as fast as you prepare your bodies in oblation before the Altar. Love cannot blame. Love cannot be used for pride and be an oblation in surrender and sacrifice. When you take down the veils of Maya and the delusions of earth, which lie between you and the Source, then you share God’s Glory.

February 28, 1963

With this conquering on your part and “I, if I be lifted up, shall lift all men,” you shall succeed, for yours, all the world’s illness has been lifted. You have been used for this. God does not fashion it so, yet uses this form for good. As the incident is in the process, see the Beloved only and treat. Know beforehand. Do your part. Take nothing on! You have always known the answers. You knew more than God! The outer meant more than God! “And I, if I am lifted up, shall draw all to me! Selah!”

Give all thoughts about the past to the Father as a gift, all Desire, all Will, all Imagination, all “my way” to do it, lift it, stretch the hands upward and declare: “In this Radiance and Glory, open the mind, the heart and every cell of my body nerves.”

March 3, 1963

The greater credits go to the ones who struggle the greatest with self. You are doing your duty from where you are, which can bring no greater credits. The Father takes you higher for greater credits.

How much nearer are you to seeing and hearing in a year? Only a hair’s breadth separates a proper joy in being used for seeing and receiving and crediting yourself. The only credit to take is in being a perfect instrument! When you are there, you will look for no credit just to be used for the right thing at the right time. It is a delicate sensitivity to achieve.

A higher point of sensitivityis coming now, not only to know before another asks, but to know before they even think of it. Do not give information before the proper time. The next step is to pray and broadcast what you see and have the other fellow tell you “what.” Make the other fellow feel big; do not make yourself big in their eyes. They do see you by feeling big. The less another deserves it, the more he feels big.

A Sagittarian’s great conquering is to “suffer fools gladly,” which is an understanding born of knowledge of the world’s frailties.

March 7, 1963

Put caps of Light on those in administration and declare that only love can use them. Whatever they do shall work no harm, only love. The “caps” or “hoods” will allow nothing from one mind to another except the right, beauty, love, harmony and the building of nations for God. They will hear no other words. Use this treatment only with clean hands and a pure heart.

Watch your step when you hear a raucous voice and yakkety-yak. The subconscious reacts and closes out what it hears.

Marriage vows are wiped clean after ten years when there is no reciprocity. Some women ask their husbands to do it once and when they don’t, they step in and do it themselves. The effort it takes to push the other fellow, one could do it one’s self on God’s Power and strength.

God is weary of evil, bandied about from mouth to mouth by people who have no idea of what it is. To set aside evil, say, “Let God make it so. Let evil be set aside, lifted. Let it be so.” No special formula is required. When you see the evil, speak immediately whatever comes to you, words of “letting” to have it consumed and not allowed to overrun the world creating disaster.

No matter from the world lasts free of deterioration, so the new shall grow up and consume the jungle of the old. Then rocks, trees, earth and water shall rejoice and sing praises. All is a matter of giving up the outer self, force and tears to tighten you line of Light until it can stretch far enough.

During Lent, the veils of Maya may be rent asunder. This is your Lenten Questionnaire:

1. Are you stealing the time of another?
2. Are you inconsiderate of another in asking or demands?
3. Are you in blame for another for an instant?
4. Are you seeing darkness to lift objectively?

You are responsible according to your degree. The Power is so great now and you must be ready to receive it. Make an oblation of your bodies to receive it that Power does not destroy them.

Let no words that are less than perfection, pass your lips. “Father, here I am. Fill me. Father, Thy glorious child I am, Thine in Thy magnificence of perfection. Let there be more life.” Speak it and know it greatly. Speak high, magnificent words of glory and believe them. Believe it and it shall be so. Glorify the Father. Praise without ceasing. Be consistent. Be repentant. Be steady.

March 10, 1963

Those who seek to perpetrate evil find less and less Power to use. Soon they shall be floundering. The canopy of peace is like a veil, though not like the veils of Maya. It represents a veil of Light between bodies and minds of evil’s functionaries and what they seek to accomplish of evil. Lesser satellites of evil will forget what to do, and the taking of life will therefore be lessened, because they shall forget.

The Power we invoke of Light serves as restraints. None of the Light, Power and Glory we evoke with our prayers can ever escape, even that spoken by those who grow lax or lukewarm. The Power does not escape, nor can their good words spoken be neutralized or misused as darkness, as in the past. It leaves the lukewarm powerless to flounder and no one will listen. The Light shall shine on the evil doers and show them up. Special Lights shine on special places, where evil is concocted and their evil words shall turn and rend them.

Now we are ready for the life-giving Power of the Beloved, the Christ. Let none use harsh words today, this Light must be released softly. Pray and declare that each is serving through the words upon their lips. He knows; do not explain to God what is needed or how evil the evil is, but to lift humanity and the nations for the permeating and penetrating of all Power and Light, which like radioactive material can consume the one who handles it if darkness is mentioned or concentrated upon. Just lift and declare it perfect now. We must reach out with our arms and lift each, holding them in this soft, penetrating healing ray, which shall magnify all. Each is to partake of it.

March 17, 1963

Yesterday’s greatness is not great enough for this day, nor today’s for tomorrow. You have always been Chosen. You were sent to earth Chosen, and is God one to change His mind? Know whom you are. When you do not remember, it is because you let your vibration descend. A descent is forgetting. Memory is the Light itself through you.

You are always taking vacations from responsibility of soul. And you can sit, stand, walk or run and say “God bless thee” or “I am thine” or “I ever think of Thy Throne” and still be descended out of the Light.
To move up and feel the arms of Light about you, to be blinded by the Light every second, this is memory. This is remembering. This is holding your point!

If you say, “It can’t be done,” you are saying, “I am too weak, too frail, too little, too selfish to love God enough.” There are all degrees of Light from the lowest hell of earth to the Source. God has opened the Gates, hauled you through, and is continually hauling you through on the end of a line, back again!

Stay where your work is great. And remember one thing: One thought of self, “I am doing it right” or “I am noble and everyone should take my hand and acknowledge it,” and you are sitting in the mud with the evil ones. Of course, with the Light of protection around thee, it is a little spot of mud but it is still mud.

When you love God enough, your mind is concerned with “I love Thee more, I love Thee more!” What then can go wrong, for the soul is in charge. Anything that comes to you then is lifted, for you can say, “Father, here is more to change. Hold me! Let me climb higher to Thee!”

Do you think that God can’t finish the job? Even without your help He shall finish now what you have brought this far. If only one stood, He could finish the cleansing! Many have achieved in consciousness but have not won through in total conquering, for they degrade their bodies and minds with lesser curiosity and pride in the world.

Disorder, delay and loss of time is like using a jeweler’s polishing wheel for a diamond on coarse steel. Edna Miriam came to prove that Ascension is possible on earth while here.

White Light goes on. This is the first Lent since the Master was here when less than half-way through Lent, the evil was conquered to the point so the White Light can come through. Let’s keep it there for the final healing of cancer, growths and “what-have-yous.”

March 18, 1963

Jesus became the Law by accepting full responsibility for Messiahship when he said, “I am the way, the truth and the light.” Conquered imagination becomes vision. When we turn imagination up as vision, the molds are strong as steel. Passing judgment is a form of being blind to the Law of the Lord.

March 23, 1963

Always maintain yourself, your body, your whole being in time with the great Cosmic Rhythm of your proper Division of Harmony. Neither hurrying nor tarrying is balanced and you tear asunder high vibrations of harmony when you do either. Allow time, God’s time, for all tasks. Your Guards, the Father and the Power can and do remake, revitalize and restore you completely when you allow them and accept so strongly that it reaches fully into your subconscious.

Everything is important; all the little things are great details. What you do, do properly, leaving nothing out of place. That is the Law of Details. The Law of Consideration is to be considerate of everyone around you and of everything we construct and do. Seek advice, not the weary babble of one who thinks not and asks and asks. This is a baby. The mature one checks his mind, brain cells, emotions, experiences, even the physical cells and looks about before even inquiring. This is maturity.

March 24, 1963

Your morning prayers are registered, each according to your degree and kind, and you are eligible to open your new 1,000 days of burnt offerings. Do not “know” too much. Always check on your direction, your seeing and hearing, a move you are not sure about. You may not ask questions about what you can figure out on the outside. They must be according to your direction to move. Seek advice on anything out of the ordinary! Edna Miriam does not delay answering unless you ask something illegal or that you could answer yourself. You have reached a new place of Ascension now. From here on the climb is very steep. The fall is mighty if one is not eligible to seek it. If you were not eligible for it, you would not know about it. It requires grit, determination and discipline.

You are all moving up. Do as much as you can with a smile and compassion. Make every hour a gift to our Lord. Make every task a gift to the Lord and remember, He is One.

Every weed pulled, every piece of paper picked up from the front yard in devotion puts a line up to someone we would lift. Do not curse it, for it is a gift to you. Make it pay all of us dividends, even picking a thread up from the floor is lifting force from earth if you so declare.

The Power is “on tap” at all times. Make much of each small act. Anything less is disgruntlement. Make the smallest act a ritual just to keep things straight and square.

You are the world’s lifters and you can make every breath you inhale and exhale count to release evil upward. You shall have compassion with no thought of self, and God can use you to His advantage with everyone whom you meet. As you lift all on your lines, you shall have miracles. Lift and lift and lift relatives and friends and know the next step shall be the right step. You shall know that it is.

You have each created tightness every time you have said you have “no room,” and you have squinched it more. Do not make the thing you do not want, rather be quiet. Saying, “It is perfect,” is better— and not from the teeth out! Do not use such comments and complaints as conversation pieces. Stop creating tightness! Create only beauty! There is no complaint but disorder.

March 25, 1963

No one can set aside the greater conflicts hugged by the ego. If they live by the sword of fighting, they die by the hour. The more they blame, the more they pity themselves, the greater the suffering — but they are moving UP, ascending to the Laws. You are on your own Path of Choice. Not “once for all” but a choice every hour!

Giving God the credit must come from the toes, with contrition of heart, living the Laws gladly. Question yourself at night — Have I done this? Have I been aware? Have I obeyed, observed? Check on self constantly. Have I been considerate of others always, in every way? Where have I failed in obedience?

The Pathway to Hell is paved and smooth. Use Logic, Reason, Discretion, Discrimination, and Discernment on each day, and dig out the self, for Light cannot move into one who is in self-satisfaction. There is no place.

Rejoice over the little things, over all. Rejoice over another’s petty selfishness and his tremendous desire to give and do. Rejoice that the Father has strengthened you for all the work you must do and have done. When you think you have done anything yourself, you deserve to be shot at sunrise and then again at night! When you are willing and you desire to do with such a mighty desire, you go on and on! Do the next thing next and demand of self.

When I mind my own business, I know I am helping THE GREAT OVER-ALL! There must be no questions. When the one desire is to do more, no one can shove you off the path! But God help you if you go to bed without having made this a Day of Judgment and release Power to fill in the holes.

This is the secret of making enemies your friends. Just say, “You are so wonderful,” no matter what they’ve done, even if they spit on you. The day comes when they dry up, spit no more and return.

Rebellion and repudiation of — is under the surface when there is no order in one’s thinking! This is where one reaches the “point of no return”! Start with logic, reason, discretion, discrimination and discernment as your multiplication table. When the Kingdom of Heaven is open to you, never give what you “see” and “hear” unless you consult with the Queen. It would have wrenched you, and made you a medium — and there shall be none such in the Society of Healing Christ! It is time to mature instantly and check notes.

March 26, 1963

Indifference bleeds the Light from Power, and it goes out as black clouds that return to us as accidents here. Our morning and evening prayers direct it properly, or evil ones use it. Law dictates all, and there is a routine Law for this. Mind, Power and Substance must be directed and controlled every minute of every day. If left undirected and uncontrolled, they are picked up by those monsters who are seeking fuel and they double themselves. Mind, Power and Substance double on hate and love.

Every night before midnight, make the day right. Lift all and set the keynote for the day and the Power to release. Each day’s good is not good enough for tomorrow. Make each a day of burnt offerings.

April 4, 1963

A lazy person who has made no vows is irresponsible. When you assume a responsibility, you take on all the ramifications and must hold forever, no matter what.

A cycle of 1,000 days of burnt offerings is 37 lunar months in which every day is a perfect day in sacrifice of self. We glance at it to lift whatever we see or hear. When you begin, it is automatically a challenge to lift force and dark substance from our own separated Mind, Substance and Power. It’s like working for patience instead of poise, everything challenges your patience about 1000 times a day! Edna Miriam first began hers in 1922. She made it 600 days and got brother-in-law-itis. When you reach the point when you involve no personality in it, you are justice itself.

Law of Details: You get caught out in big ways if you don’t attend to all details always. For instance, you can put things in order where they belong and straighten your closets, a little at a time! Each day, take five minutes and straighten one corner. Think about doing it every day, and do something about it daily. There is no excuse for throwing things down, so put it in order. Keep letters together in straightened piles, and touch them to send a blessing to the writers.

Those who live in disorder are nearest to the animal stage, one step from living in a cave. All you can do with another is to pray and broadcast the Law: “You are living under the Law of Divine Order.” Put the messy one on a sheet of Light, and brainwash him of laziness. Keep it going. You can create order if you must. If your details are not in order, you lose under Initiation. When you do it often, you do it well.
You can complete 1,000 days of burnt offerings on attention to detail alone. You can ascend in a second, stand a second, and do it. “Lord, don’t let me miss a detail today.”

One of the greatest Ascension Laws is full consideration, which lifts you above the little ways of inconsideration. “Lord, here I stand, ready, able and willing to do all my work and everyone else’s, too.” You apply the five Laws this way: Logic, Reasoning, Discretion, Discrimination and Discernment. Seek advice of experts because you can easily get off the path. Watch a good hostess and do it the same way. Charge your brain cells to learn something new.

Use your powers of observation. Can you remember your home at age ten? Can you remember your teacher at age fifteen? Can you remember the details of your last vacation?

If you don’t “see” where another put it, ask. There is a difference between seeking advice and not exercising your brain cells. What’s your head for, but to use? Are you greater than your body? Use your brain cells for whatever you must do. Remember the names and numbers that are necessary, no more. It is a matter of what is important to you. Edna Miriam worked for four or five years on her desire to remember names, and the ability came. Work at what is important, and pay attention to everything you do.

Seek facts. Just because someone on TV tells all about it, doesn’t mean it’s so. Do not go to an opinionated ass for advice, and do not mistake an opinion for advice. Seek advice of someone balanced. Politically, go to the best. You live by honor of God, loyalty to God. Apply a just appraisal and do not take it into yourself!

You cannot steal time without spending your own soul substance. A woman whom Edna Miriam’s knew, stole time constantly from her family and friends, and she was never on time in her life. She spent the last three years living in a body that was a log to pay for all that stolen time. She would say, “My time is important.”

You cannot steal another’s hope or reputation without paying a debt. Everything you say is either a blessing or a curse. Any stealing, especially of time, causes paralysis. Even if it’s unavoidable, the debt remains. For example, Edna Miriam’s appointments may run over because the Masters come, but students can’t be late. Edna Miriam pays for this at night and prays more for others who had to wait, and fills the gaps.

We live in eternity, but we use time and space. If someone takes your time and talks and talks and repeats, the repetition is no good. Tell them, “You are taking my time and God’s with this, so stop repeating.” The only way to heal another is to stand him on his own feet and do something about it! When someone petitions you for help, say with a rummage sale, you need not make excuses for what you do with your time. Seek the sweet, firm, final way of living in honor and loyalty to God and integrity of soul. This is the Law: When someone is wasting your time over the phone, say, “I hear the bell ringing.” It will be true because this is your signal to pray.

Time is of the essence now. Stop wasting time. Spread out like a five-pointed star. Taking care of your physical body is important for rest. Take time to consider the universe and God. Work out a balanced life: Eight hours of hard physical labor, eight hours of diversion, and eight hours of sleep. If you skimp on diversions, they put you to bed. Diversions can be anything that brings you Joy.

Everything under the surface must become Light. All this depends on how you use time. Show me what a man does in his odd moments, and I’ll tell you what kind of man he is. Once we write, read or hear it, we are responsible. If you feel you have a taint, and can’t become perfect in Ascension, that will become true.

April 11, 1963

The Laws on stealing time: Edna Miriam’s slow walk to the corner for the bus was sloughing off the outer physical. The only way Edna Miriam can pay her people’s debts for everything she mentioned about “stolen time” is to be early at an appointment. Being “early” is the only way she can pay debts for her people. She cleaned house this trip was to take back force for her people. When you are early, thank the Father for giving you an opportunity to pay for “stolen time.”

You challenge yourself when you say, “Poor little me. I’m not worthy.” Say, “Father, You know how I love You. Let Your Light move through me,” etc., or you challenge evil. When you cross your arms and speak, you challenge evil. Just quietly say, “That’s enough.”

Edna Miriam “saw” as a child, and she did not deviate but stuck to it. She was born knowing that someone had to practice and be the perfection of God and the Christ. She always did her best, especially when things were “killing” her. She would say, “Let it come. I am up.”

“ My one virtue was to stick and hold that Light is stronger than darkness. It’s all I’ve had and it’s free, 24 hours a day!” She never took it on but viewed it as Substance that belonged to God, and gave it to Him. You need not take on anything that is not your own. Lift it and say, “I’ve been a jackass, but here I am. Use me and please take this, Father, it’s Yours.”

Edna Miriam came to prove that you can do the hardest work in the world of competition and remain fully conscious “over there.” This is being able to compete among men while living freely on the inner. The statement is, “I can last one day longer than this test. This, too, shall pass.”

You are like vacuum cleaners wherever you go, and you keep yourselves aware, not in censure, blame or condemnation, but to cleanse, to lift, to clean up the last darkness, to devitalize darkness by letting Glory move forth through you.

April 24, 1963

The greatest harm to walk earth is not from agents of darkness and evil, but it is the weak ones who just let darkness pile up in their lives through neglect or a “what’s the use” attitude. “What’s the use” is a curse, a true curse.

Dedicate every physical pain to lift force from the hearts and minds of men. We must declare accumulated force lifted from hearts and minds. You do not move in to disturb the individual.

First, hold individual using force out here before you. Feel that you lift them (arms held out with hands uplifted). Say for the individuals, “Father, let all conflict, inner and outer, be lifted from the mind and heart of this individual.”

For his affairs, say the statement again using the words, “the affairs, personal and business.” Personal means relationships as family, and business means partnerships, etc. The force must be lifted from the individual’s mind and heart. Then the force must be lifted from his affairs and business.

May 6, 1963

When our capacity has grown, we must fill it with beauties and glories above for our contemplation. Only contemplation of greater things than we have known can give us Comprehension where we are, stepping up our understanding, opening the vision to the point of having hearing added to it. Comprehending all Wisdom while leaving undone the practical, methodical, daily details of earth is no good. We need balance.

Healing takes longer where there is disobedience to the outer scientific law of the physical. We must conform on every count. This is where Logic, Reason, Discretion, Discrimination and Discernment enter, the application of which comprises full Wisdom.

June 7, 1963

Be rigid in your discipline of self. You reach a point where an idle thought creates its kind. The instant you have an imbalance, you know you must choose. To let go of any part of your devotion, consecration or dedication would precipitate a fall that would be billions of light years. If any force emanated from the individual, it would shatter the memory of what he or she had been.

This is the true fall of man or of the Gods! To lose consciousness of the rapture of standing at the Source. The memory of having had something is that which urges man to recapture the ecstasy, and in all ages there have been two opposing and conflicting ways: Those who give up life to achieve it, and those who repudiate it completely, entirely and regress.

Without rejoicing, man is nothing, for gratitude is the first Law of Increase. All growth comes under the great Law of Appreciation or gratitude. Gratitude and joy are the vibrations that keep one from slipping into the mud of self. You cannot rejoice if you are bound to the little self, for it demands praise from the higher self. To touch the vibration of praise, one moves into the high Principle of Joy. To rejoice and be glad under all conditions is the one thing to work for, for the declaration, “This is good” must be born under the spirit of praise and devotion to God.

You must watch for self-righteousness and intolerance. Anger added to a holier than thou attitude for being self-appointed to wipe out evil, plus a beginning to hunt for it to satisfy this desire to make the world perfect and to eradicate anybody who deviates from the Law — add all this and you have the anatomy of a fanatic zealot.

June 9, 1963

We invoke the Supreme Power with our words. We have passed from the shadowy influence of the Piscean Age, which was an age of emotional tears and desire to escape from life, into the Aquarian Age, and are firmly established in an age of greater Power. No reason exists now for the Piscean vibration to influence anyone materially or emotionally. No one needs to be an escapist fish, who cries and pities himself.

True, we may weep about humanity at times, but only in Compassion or Joy. It does no good to pity the masses or to challenge God by asking why He permits war, illness or tragedies. Your spoken word releases Power, and God moves in when you say “Let Light fill him.” This is our work with God. The Aquarian Age requires servants who release undiluted spiritual Power, not almost-hardlys.

We offer our Declaration of Unquenchable Love as a sacrament — it is more than mere earth-words. If this were not true, the spoken Word would hold no virtue for healing or creation. In our choice of words we have free will. When we use negative words, we step off our Chord of Power. Words work on a knowing plan. God holds and guards us even in our misconceptions, because when we are earnest, yet mis-speak, the Father turns off the Power instantly so we cannot create more darkness.

Our Declaration of Love conveys to the Councils the depth of our desire to serve God and to be Christed. This protects us from being squeezed between the pages of a book. Let the Declaration of Love be the Covenant between you and your God. This is the greatest miracle of this age.

June 10, 1963

There is no limit to the strength of God to use you, the Love of God to use you, nor to the Joy and exaltation, Illumination and the Wisdom to use you daily. Only idle words that do not express sovereignty of soul hinder you. There is no difference in effort between service of soul and service to self.

June 16, 1963

How many hours of rejoicing and Ascension have you known this week? Do you love God just because He is God, and not because you want something? Love can be diluted by selfishness. You get from life everything that you give to God, minus your deductions, which are idle words, resentments, criticism, gossip. Don’t let your eyes rove about the world’s business, except to see things to lift.

It is easy to declare everything good when you see only God’s side. For example, people elected to political office have senior Chronological Age, no matter how they handle themselves. You cannot know how another would do in the President’s place.

We are on only one side, God’s side. If we stand on that, a God-inspired person can lead the nations. Declare the Power moves through him and all leaders to establish them in the Love of God. Do not try to like them. Love God.

June 18, 1963

Sliding down the greased pole of consciousness is losing your vision and rhythm. Thinking of these things twenty-four hours a day is not possible. You can’t be objective and always counting. But through Imagination, you can glance up 1,000 times an hour, and can thus see your vision. Accept God as both state of consciousness and a place and heaven as the same thing.

Every lifespark has to enfolded into the Light from which we descend. The material of the outer sheath is pure Light. These abortions we walk around in are not in image and likeness of God. He created us perfect. We made the mess, but everything written about our perfection is true. We can reach it again. For instance, a flounder has two eyes when it is young. Later, as it lays flat on one side, its two eyes move to one side. If God can move the eyes of a flounder, what can He do for us?

We have the ability to choose. God gave us all Wisdom, and we call it will, but He never gave us will to use as we please. He only gave us free choice, in all ways. We can go through stone walls if we love God enough. What price are you willing to pay to return to the image and likeness of God? It requires rigid self discipline, perfect honor, perfect loyalty, perfect integrity. Honor to God above all things. Loyalty to God above all things. Integrity to God above all things. All for one and one for all. When we accept this, we submit to rigid discipline and surrender self. We sacrifice all for training, which is rigid obedience.

What price are you willing to pay for healing imagination? Our Power comes from the Source. If you have a dirty ditch and pure water pours through, it will be cleansed, but the length of time of cleansing depends on size of the stream of water poured in. It is the same with us. We can open flood Gates if we choose and clean the ditch instantly. Start with a few Laws, and stay with them, think on them. Watch your emotional life. You must choose the price you’ll pay to be remade in image and likeness of God. There is no “too late.” It is just too soon.

June 24, 1963

If you want to wipe out the past, lift and don’t recreate it. When one is sentimental, one is apt to become boisterously, aggressively positive in the wrong places.

June 26, 1963

Exercise your faith with the words you use about arthritis. “Faith is the Substance of all the bone tissues. Pure faith moves through these hands. I am now conforming with this beautiful Divine Pattern of beautiful hands. Every extra bit of Substance and tissue is melted and dissolved away from the bone. Fire from the sun body moves through these joints, melting and dissolving all unneeded material leaving the joints perfect and normal.”

Look at a picture of beautiful hands. “Because God takes the high places down and builds the low places up and makes the crooked places straight, He is now taking down and making these knuckles perfect. Thank You Father.”

This house has become a Temple and an Altar before which you surrender to God to be used by His power to lift and to pay all your debts. The Love of God possesses you, wipes away all blame and resentment, and your Path of Destiny is open before you. “Father, hold me, fill me, let the work be done down here.”

For healing, “Let their bodies, every cell of their bodies, be permeated with the Holy Ghost the fire that burns out all dross, cleanses all glands and makes them every whit whole. Let them walk in the strength of the Almighty. Name, your strength is the strength of God. Your love is the Love of God, and the Life Spirit of Joy and rejoicing possesses you now. The absorbing Power of the Almighty is cleansing Name’s tonsils, is healing them. Their tonsils are healed. Every gland in their bodies is functioning perfectly, each one carrying on its own business.” Don’t consort with any darkness by any doubt of this.

June 27, 1963

Investing your soul substance in another is selfish possession. When you possess one from or on earth, you use your soul substance to establish an inverted and sagging earthly umbilical cord that you trip over and fall into — you can even lose your body over this. You must withdraw all possessive lines, which cause a lack of energy and abundance in your material affairs. Reach out arms of Light to those business contacts whom you would call. You must keep this going daily.

July 1, 1963

Treatment for overweight: See the White Light of Christ moving into every fat cell, melting, dissolving and absorbing it. See a slim figure and thank the Father for it. In the morning say, “Move with your body, which is slender, graceful, perfect.” Oversoul absorbs every cell that does not conform to a perfect figure.

July 5, 1963

Love is a quality of soul, the brooding, yearning, compassionate mothering Principle, absorbing all except that which the individual holds out with the little self. Whenever I go to the Source, the one thing I know is that love is all-comprehending, all compassionate, all pervading, all permeating, all leavening. It is the activity and heat of the universes. Love expressed on earth is illustrated in the worrying, travailing, yearning, all encompassing, protecting quality in man. It is not something you can define; it is!

Ascension is a consciousness of radiance greater than anything on earth. Faithfulness to Principle counts as Ascension credits. All credits do not deal with Ascension. A demerit not only is lost as an Ascension credit but, according to the demerit’s weight, it may take from or subtract from the stored Ascension credits. Where one is climbing in Ascension, each demerit is a weight pulling backward and downward, a weight on the soul. It takes a flaming, burning Desire to take one to the heights.

Most miracles come from the silently shouted words, “Peace, be still” or words of divine action, “Thou shalt be healed” or whatever is needed to overcome another’s negativity. You waste time in vain repetition that could be better spent in reaching the top. Plan where you want to go and then struggle with all your heart and soul to climb the cliff above. Sometimes it is like a fly man walking up a wall. The position is precarious and you must make a supreme effort that is constant to scale the walls.

July 7, 1963

It isn’t enough to just live by Principle and do good. It takes burning Desire, and devotion given to the Being of Light who walks earth. Without devotion you lose something and don’t have glory in your soul. Obedience to Principle makes you feel good, holy, noble. But devotion to the Father gives Love and Compassion.

July 8, 1963

If you are following Jesus the Christ on the Path of Ascension, you cannot take in anything that deals with personal disturbance, you cannot recognize anything that disturbs — hate or anger in other fellow — to you it is not there.

The practical “how to conquer” is the hardest thing for you to confirm each day. Declare, “This day I dedicate hours to saying ‘yea, yea’ and ‘nay, nay’ to all things.” Make negative events into gifts to God and use only love (for example, in phone calls). Present yourself as loving and understanding. Dedicate your first thought in the morning to conquering self that day.

When you truly desire to achieve, you know who you are and where you are going. Now you will be conscious of whom you are and how great your place and how little you would feel if you let God down.

July 14, 1963

God’s Love is always there. But how much do you love God? Your lights look like a worn, bare peacock feather when you are not up. With our bodies, we are living in last of the Earth Age. With our love and emotions, we are living in the Venus Age. With our mental attitudes, we are living in the Jupiter Age. With our souls, we are living in the Vulcan Age.

July 15, 1963

When God sends a great idea to earth, He also send the people who can do it. We move up to the right agent. First were those who had Chronological Age and had to have a chance, and many who were with Edna Miriam fell by the wayside.

God cannot promise us no obstacles, nor a path without a few serpents or rough spots. The climb back to our original places is not yet fulfilled. This way is gradual ascension. No steep cliffs to climb now, no walls nor quicksand, no chasms nor abysses. God has given us the Power of creating our desires. If our desire is abyss-ward, we shall leap over it or over cliffs we created off our path. We must return from wherever we find ourselves. We can put up our hands and ask for a chariot of fire to rescue us.

Henceforth, this is a Law, to be rescued instantly. The price is surrender. Lay aside stubbornness and wilfulness. We must know we will be rescued instantly upon call. The Covenant we make here must be ratified under surrender, acceptance, love of God and devotion expressing on earth. Only what we recreate may touch us.

July 22, 1963

All you need to do is love more and more and do not let yourself down for one instant of time. It is a necessity for you that you keep your vibration as high as is possible. There is only one Glory for you, the Glory of your love for your beloved, his love for you and the two of you loving God as you do with all your heart, mind and soul. Just ahead of you lie such beauties and such wonderful companionship and understanding. Hold fast in all ways to your gains. Do not let anything drag you down. There is only one way for you, my dear, and that is the up way and the exercise of confidence in the Power of God to overcome all obstacles and the quiet assurance that we will fulfill all promises made, and so it shall be.

July 24, 1963

The only imperfect thing is when we speak a word imperfectly, things do not come out perfectly. When faith is great enough, the Father blesses, and all works together for good. True! It has not been hard for you to accept for you have always loved God.

When you hold completely to detail, you slip not, not even a little. You must do so before you can see and hear. It is nonsense to have even a small taint, and to slip on such small things. Hold to small details and you will not slip on big things!

July 25, 1963

Entertain no doubt or fear or invite in anything imperfect. Stand and hold beyond the point of letting go or doubting whether the Power can move in and do the work. Waver not. Hold, and having done all, stand as Light!

The three higher breaths are Mind, Power, Substance, and the four lower breaths (fire, air, earth and water). Three higher breaths differentiate themselves according to the need of the conscious mind. If you are in devotion to God, Power can become praise, etc. Keep your eye on the Absolute God. Lifting at the time of the necessity, releases the Power, the white Light of the Christ through you. When you look up, the crown opens, establishes the contact with your Star, with the Father, and goes through the whole glandular system.

It takes discipline and energy to keep from misusing the Power. Do you use common sense on earth? No. Use uncommon sense on earth. You have to pipe energy to your affairs. Your prayers are your pipeline. Let the Power go here, there. The mind needs charts and symbols to do its work as a ladder. Faith requires a picture, a symbol. We are here eating our “won’ts.” Tell the Father they are wonderful, good, and learn your lesson.

August 4, 1963

The Truth: Real Discipleship is not that you choose to follow Christ, but that he chooses you.

August 5, 1963

Man must live honorably with loyalty to Principle, to God and integrity of soul. Your faculties come with your head, but you must exercise them or they will atrophy. You cannot reach your goal of knowing God and holding your identity without a basis of Principle to stand upon.

You go to a low heaven when you do nothing to anybody, which is regression. The intermediate heaven, which was called Purgatory, is now lifted. So where are you going? To high Heaven. You must renew yourself daily. Inner conflict is a denial of the Power moving through you.

August 15, 1963

The Light is moving through our atomic bodies as energy. We will have no difficulty in leading the world, if you let your immortality shine through. We are together because of one Mind, one Power and one Substance — everything here has come from Heaven. God gave Light as energy. You either believe in God and science or not, but you must believe this Power that uses us has come through all schools of mysticism and now moves through your aura.

“ Ask anything in my name believing that you have it.” When you move into this place of Light, you enter that place where all is poise, unwavering, no shadow of turning. We “need” only when we do not enter the place of poise.

At the school for astronauts, the motto is “all for one and one for all.” This is a law of self-sacrifice. Jesus the Christ trained twelve unsophisticated men to become the greatest psychiatrists of the world. They have told us that we must be unwavering, don’t be double-minded, ask anything in the master’s name, do it in joy and overcome any temptation in joy. Move up to this glory and let your immortality shine through. The Power descends as etheric currents and the magnetic currents rise to produce lightning, and it causes an explosion, taking it up and out. “Ask anything in my name.”

Send your prayers high. Send Light into the main bodies of governments and committees. The thunder and lightning crack the spheres of black force every time our prayers release it. The Father sends atomic energy down through rocks and trees wherever people pray. Lift everything without wasting a moment on it. The whole world is looking for a few who pray. The need is so great. See evil only to lift it, but do not dwell on it. Curses are talking about it and idle curiosity is a curse! Just lift it.

Don’t involve another in idle words, for though your karma may be paid, you will owe their debt, too. Plan ahead for the positive: Idle plans create idle words, which create idle curses!

Honor, Loyalty and Integrity are the fruits of self-discipline and self-sacrifice. The Way or the Path of Christ is described in the Gospel of John. Einstein said that mass accelerated to the speed of light becomes Light. John said the Light is the Life of God. Our atomic body is light. It fills us and we use this mass of Light Energy for healing. We pray, stand and wait until it fills in as mass in the body. James said we could not waver, for “a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.”

Ask for anything in the name of the Master until you have it. Endure temptation until you have it. The full outline of psychiatry is in the Bible. The time will come when psychiatrists turn to the Bible to learn how to release the subconscious mind. The great Teacher came to earth and said “Use my name and I will stand behind it” when you ask in full faith believing. “Every good and perfect gift comes from the Father of Lights. Having done all, you ascend, stand in the place of soul glory and ask from there! Let your immortality show, for it is all we have!

Say, “Let the Light use me” and thou shalt be used because thou art the Light of the world. How can darkness exist when Light absorbs and consumes darkness? The Bible teaches to let go of the impossibles of man and grasp the possibles of God. When the last impossibles are wiped from your mind, when you can forget them and doctors and what they say, then you shall walk the earth immortal.

September 5, 1963

Past repudiation, resentment, rebellion and self-pity generate blame! Anything ailing the heart comes from a glucose imbalance in the lymph system, which is the body’s cleaner. Its thickness is the basis of disease. Crying easily means that the lymph system needs to be cleared out. Tear ducts are some of the most important lymph glands in the body. When you lack compassion for the world, the lymph glands are clogged. When you want to cry, say, “Here it is for cleansing, Father.”

Glaucoma and cataracts show up in those who don’t cry. Selfish grief is almost as bad as no tears or weeping at all. The tears ducts must be porous, for they are barometers of the lymph system. Water is the principal liquid, and you need three quarts a day, plus another of other liquids to keep the lymph system clear.

When a physical cavity is to be filled and healing is in process, which is a change in the metabolism, the cells themselves fight! The pain is worse when you begin to rebuild than during the “pull down” itself!

September 15, 1963

Watch carefully that no belligerency tinges your voice. It is so easy to have a bit of cheekiness, yet it ruins everything that we do for months in a day. Apologize and be sorry and be alert on it when necessary, when you “pull” one. Do not let it go. Watch your voice when speaking with others, as you watch your writing. Let there be no trace of thinking of self. Let there be not a smud
