			<content:encoded><![CDATA[
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Your business is not your supply. Your employment is not your supply. Your investments or inheritance is not your supply. Your money is not supply. SPIRIT is supply - ONLY Spirit.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Spirit is SELF-COMPLETE. Therefore, what is this business, employment, investment or inheritance - plus this paper stuff called money - that you have been thinking of, and relying on, as being your supply? If Spirit is SELF-COMPLETE there is nothing else Spirit needs in order to BE complete. No channel, no vehicle, no paper, no activity, no process, no season, no time. Indeed, there IS nothing BUT Spirit; Spirit is everything, everywhere, and It is Self-Complete omnipresence right here, right now, where you are. Therefore, what has ‘time’ got to do with it? What has a ‘vehicle or channel’ got to do with it? What has a ‘process, activity of season’ got to do with it? What have little paper rectangles called money got to do with it? Spirit already exists right here, omnipresent, in Its infinite fullness so how can anything else (remember, there ISN’T anything else) effect It?<span>&nbsp; </span></span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">It is only you and me - the collective consciousness of the whole human race - who have created a separation <em>in our minds</em> and called it ‘business, employment, investment, inheritance, money.’ <span>&nbsp;</span>When it comes to health, it is we who have created a separation and called it ‘body, organs, function, exercise, healthy diet, medicines, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, prebiotics, probiotics’ and so on. None of these are supply and none are health. Only SPIRIT is supply and only SPIRIT is life. Spirit is everything, everywhere. The fact that mind SEES Spirit AS all these FORMS has nothing to do with it. Only SPIRIT is all, and Spirit is OMNIPRESENT right where you are, and AS every ‘thing’ you need in this mind-experience. Only make sure you do not become entangled of thinking in terms of ‘things, situations, amounts’: think ONLY of the infinite SPIRIT that you are and that every thing is.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">If business, employment and industrious activity WERE supply EVERY business, every employment and every industrious activity would be limitless, eternal, effortless streams of supply for every person who involved themselves in these activities. You know there isn’t a business in the world, or an employment, or an activity that comes close to being true supply. All you and I have to do is step into any community to see the results of this false belief in supply: lack, limitation, hardship, debt, poverty, fines, interest charges, court summons, theft, mugging, even murder, and prison. The false beliefs in which we have invested our hopes have horrible and cruel consequences throughout all the world. </span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">If your body with its organs and functions were Life itself it would never change, never age, never tire, never sleep, never weaken, never injure, never wrinkle, never deteriorate, never die. It is only we who have created a separation in mind and called it body, organs and functions and then invested that body with properties of life, health and energy. All you and I have to do is step outside our front door and we quickly see the results of this false belief: the aging, the weak, the crippled, the paralyzed, the injured, the diseased, the dead. The false belief in body being Life has disastrous and cruel consequences the world over.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The seeming vehicles or channels of supply, life, love, relationship, happiness, vocation, creativity, and success are a trap unwittingly set by the mind. The mind looks ‘out’ at life and says, “This is all there is. What I <em>see</em> and what I <em>have</em> is the sum total of what I can <em>do</em> and <em>be </em>at any moment.”</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Let’s take the subject of supply - and specifically ‘money’ because so many millions of people throughout the world have such a hard time understanding what money really is and how to release themselves from the trap and restrictions of the money belief.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">When we are judging purely with the faculties of the mind we believe we need employment, or a business, or investment or inheritance in order to have the necessary amount of money for a financially satisfactory, free, or even wealthy life. Then, when we have one or more of these ‘channels’ we immediately believe that IT or THEY determine the ‘amount’ of our supply. If we are employed we believe our wage is the limit of our supply. If we have a business we believe that our ability to make business ‘successful’ is the ‘amount’ of our supply and asset worth. If we have investments or inheritance we believe that the ‘size’ of it determines the ‘amount’ of money we are able to draw each month, or totally, and the ‘degree’ of financial security we have.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">You see, all the MIND can do is judge by forms, amounts, weights, functions, processes, vehicles, channels, activities - VISIBLE evidence alone. But remember the single most important truth you must grasp: YOU, I AND EVERY PERSON, THING, AND CONDITION IS SPIRIT, NOT FORM. All FORMS are simply the mind SEEING SPIRIT through ITS faculties which ‘transmute’ (or ‘interpret’) Spirit into what looks to it, and is experienced by it, as form.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The belief and reliance on form dissolves <em>when </em>we catch the vision of Spirit being everything, everywhere - rather than <em>things </em><span>and</span> <em>amounts </em><span>and </span><em>activities </em>being everything, everywhere.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Right in your lap at this very moment is all the supply of the infinite. Think, think, THINK! ALL the supply of the INFINITE is YOURS to spend, enjoy and share this very minute. But you don’t see it, do you? So you say, “I WISH that were true of me but it isn’t, although I can just about see how it COULD be, one day, when I achieve a higher awareness of Spirit.”</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Ah, right there is where you are making the mistake that KEEPS the infinite supply from your vision and use. YOU ARE STILL LOOKING THROUGH THE MIND. Your mind is telling you, “Where is this infinity of supply? I cannot see it therefore I cannot use it.” BUT REMEMBER, THE MIND CAN ONLY SEE SPIRIT IN WHAT WE CALL FORM. It can only JUDGE in what we call form. It can only THINK within the confines of what we call form. It does not understand Spirit. Spirit is high above the mind’s perceptive and comprehensive ability. We must ABANDON the senses of mind if we are to rise into the bliss, abundance and infinite freedom of Spirit.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Begin today to know yourself as SPIRIT only. Know supply as SPIRIT only. Know business, employment, investments, inheritance, and money as SPIRIT only. Certainly know that Spirit appears to the mind AS all these forms but NEVER AGAIN fall into the trap of measuring the amount of FORM you have and believing that the amount is the degree of your ability in any way whatsoever, whether you are thinking of body, money, business, relationship, family, home, car, or happiness.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">As you lift awareness to the point of realizing that everything everywhere is SPIRIT and that Spirit is SELF-COMPLETE in every way and needs no form, activity, process or time to BE that self-completeness, you will quickly witness your entire life, health, money, happiness and success BECOME - EVEN IN THE FORMS THE MIND SEES - the natural self-completeness that your whole life already spiritually IS.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Be still and LET SPIRIT show you what your business, employment, investment, or inheritance REALLY IS. Still the mind and let Spirit talk to you. Be still and let Spirit show you what your life really is, and what your body really is. You will be shocked at what you discover! You will be shocked to discover that all these forms you have spent your whole life depending on, trying to ‘get,’ and being limited by, are nothing at all apart from mind-created illusions that have kept you confined! It is like me drawing a chalk square around you and telling you you cannot move out from it, and you believing it!</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Get this: If you believe the amount of form-money your mind sees as you possessing today is the LIMIT of how much you can use today YOU ARE BELIEVING THE LIMITS OF A CHALK LINE DRAWN AROUND YOU! You have infinite supply in your lap this very minute and as long as you realize that SPIRIT is everything everywhere, and as long as you are bringing that SPIRIT-IS-EVERYTHING-EVERYWHERE AWARENESS to your consciousness every minute of the day (and never again falling for the mind-forms belief) THEN you will discover that SPIRIT rushes in and through your mind which, in turn, sees it as all the money you need and desire for anything at all, without limit.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Other ‘minds’ watching the scene will see it only as your business suddenly becoming prosperous, or your employment suddenly opening up as greater opportunity and increased wage, or your investments or inheritance suddenly gaining in value and providing you with greater income without limit BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO PERCEPTION OF SPIRIT BEING EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE. But YOU will know what really happened: your awareness that SPIRIT is the ONLY real life, substance, and presence, and your complete reliance on Spirit only and NEVER again on form or activity or process ENABLED SPIRIT to be SEEN in, as and through your transparent consciousness (empty of the thought of form) AS great health, great wealth, great success, great happiness.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">In the same way, if you believe the amount of form-health your mind sees as your body possessing today is the LIMIT of how much life you have today, and how much life you are expected to continue to have YOU ARE BELIEVING THE LIMITS OF A CHALK LINE DRAWN AROUND YOU! You have infinite life this very minute and as long as you realize that SPIRIT is your life, and the life of everything everywhere, NOT THE FORMS OF LIFE THE MIND SEES, THEN you will discover that no matter what the body seems to suffer from IT NEVER LOSSES LIFE. Life is SPIRIT. Life is not determined by a set of organs and functions. No, LIFE IS SPIRIT and as long as YOU KNOW THAT TRUTH nothing, nothing, nothing that appears in the world of FORM can effect that life because nothing can effect Spirit.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Keep your mind up and away from form. Do not think in terms of form, think only in terms of infinite Spirit. Have the inner awareness that everything the mind sees is in fact infinite Spirit BEING to the mind all this world and universe of form. Imbue your entire awareness with the omnipresence of Spirit. RELY only on the omnipresence and self-completeness of Spirit. TRUST only Spirit. Yearn only for Spirit. Make effort only for Spirit. THEN you will discover that the very life and activity that you are is a daily miracle of excitement, success, health, wealth and happiness beyond anything you’ve ever imagined.</span></p>]]></content:encoded>

  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">We have accepted that Spirit is infinite. Spirit fills all space. Therefore there can be no Spirit <em>and. </em>Every person, thing and condition that is, is Spirit being that person, thing or condition.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">We also understand that the human faculties of seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, smelling and thinking cannot experience Spirit in Its pure state. Spirit is infinite invisible SILENCE yet the five senses and even thought perceive finite form, and inharmony.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">We have learned that what the mind sees, hears, tastes, touches, smells and thinks is a TINY AND DECEPTIVE FRACTION of the infinity of Spirit that each and every person, thing and condition really IS. We are not aware of the infinite Reality, we are aware only of a fractional fragment of Reality and it is experienced by us as the finite forms of body, building, place, business, employment, activity and so on.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The secret of bringing limitless harmony, love, health, prosperity and joy into individual life is to IGNORE the FORMS we experience through the mind, and gain an awareness of the INFINITE SPIRIT that all appearing forms really are. We know enough to close our eyes to the world of form and condition, and to REST in Spirit in the peace of our withinness, and patiently wait until we have an awareness of Spirit flowing in and AS our being.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">But here’s an aspect of meditation that is very important, and which often proves a block to our demonstration of good.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">If we are not careful, we rest in Spirit, and receive a beautiful flow, a beautiful peace and assurance that all is well, and then promptly get up and start thinking about our friend who is experiencing cancer or rheumatism, or our business that is experiencing lack or limitation, or our employment that is proving difficult for us in one way or another, or our relationship that is less than pure love.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">We experience the blissful presence of Spirit WITHIN but fail to realise Spirit OMNIPRESENT the world and universe over, right down to every individual, every thing, every place, every grain of sand, every cell, atom and sub-atom.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">REALISE THIS: Spirit does not need your help or mine to BE. Spirit is eternal ISNESS, eternal COMPLETENESS. There is no unmanifested Spirit. There is not one blade of grass out of place in Spirit; there is not one weather storm in Spirit; there is not one pound or dollar missing from your complete fulfilment or mine in Spirit; there is not one inharmonious relationship in Spirit; there is not one wisp of inactivity, lack, limitation or difficulty in Spirit. There is just BLISSFUL PEACE OF SUBLIME BEING.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">BUT WE MUST BE AWARE OF <strong>SPIRIT </strong>INSTEAD OF THE APPEARING FORMS AND CONDITIONS WE ARE AWARE OF THROUGH THE MIND IF WE ARE TO EXPERIENCE A GREATER DEGREE OF THE COMPLETENESS OF SPIRIT IN OUR TANGIBLE SENSE.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Let’s take a friend or family member who has been told they have cancer. Knowing what we know and are trying our best to <em>be,</em> we sit down to meditate for him or her. But right away we must be careful to understand what our role is. We do NOT think of the person, we think ONLY on Spirit and the perfection of SPIRITUAL LIFE. There is no form as the mind knows it in Spirit, there is just infinite INVISIBLE SPIRIT. That is what we contemplate, and ONLY that. We do NOT try to “see” spiritual life as the FORM of the person we are meditating for. WE CONCENTRATE ONLY ON SPIRITUAL LIFE, INVISIBLE LIFE.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Our contemplative meditation might go something like this:</span></p>
  <p><em><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Spirit, Spirit, Spirit… Only Spirit exists. Spirit fills all space. Spirit is what appears to my senses AS a person, and so I know that the form of a person appearing to me is an illusory appearance that the mind is seeing. The person IS really there but not in the form I am experiencing. My physical eyes deceive me. I therefore can ignore the appearance and realise that actually the form is Spirit, infinite, perfect and blissful.</span></em></p>
  <p><em><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">I also know that Spirit does not need my help to BE Spirit. Every pinprick of Spirit is eternal bliss and perfection of Being. Therefore, every PERSON is eternal bliss and perfection of Being even though I might not be aware of this Truth.</span></em></p>
  <p><em><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Ah, there it is! Awareness! That is the great secret. The very moment I become AWARE of SPIRIT being the person, and not the FORM THAT APPEARS TO MY MIND, the ‘healing’ begins to become evident. As I become more and more AWARE of ONLY SPIRIT being every person, every thing and every condition - EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING IS SPIRIT! - I am not causing change or healing to take place, I AM SIMPLY AWAKENING MY SENSES TO THE PRESENCE OF SPIRIT. As I awaken, the PURITY AND COMPLETENESS AND PERFECTION of what is appearing to me becomes evident -<span>&nbsp; </span>tangible - to my mind and physical experience. But let me be doubly sure that I know I have no role whatsoever in the appearing of Spirit to my awareness. Spirit reveals ITSELF to my still consciousness. My ONLY role in this whole thing is to continually be an OPEN CONSCIOUSNESS for Spirit to inhabit.</span></em></p>
  <p><em><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Spirit, I rest in You. I wait patiently for YOU to fill my awareness with the Purity that YOU are, rather than the impurity my mind has accepted - the ills, lacks, limitation and unhappiness the mind has grown up believing. How wonderful it is now that I know ONLY SPIRIT exists, and that ANY inharmony that comes into my awareness is only a “trick of the mind” and can be, and is, instantly purified by my simply sitting in the peace of my withinness, with an open and receptive consciousness - an empty house - and having YOU, SPIRIT fill my ‘darkness’ with light, love and clarity of awareness.</span></em></p>
  <p><em><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">All ‘healing,’ harmonising, and fulfilling experience then takes place in my withinness which ALWAYS reflects in my outer scene as infallibly as invisible sun rays reflect in the outer scene as visible patches of light, and tangible areas of heat.</span></em></p>
  <p><em><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Spirit is the ONE power, omnipotence. Nothing, nothing, nothing that appears to mind is able to stand against the ONE POWER AND PRESENCE OF SPIRIT because Spirit is REAL yet the images my mind sees are not real, they are just IMAGES the mind interprets Spirit as. One with the actual awareness of Spirit is a majority. Nothing in the entire world or universe can stand against you when you are aware <strong>of Spirit being that thing.</strong></span></em></p>
  <p><em><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">SPIRIT <strong>REALISED</strong> (an actual conscious awareness) ALWAYS AND INFALLIBLY APPEARS AS THE ILLNESS OR DISEASE MELTING AWAY TO REVEAL PURE HEALTH AND LIFE… AS THE LACK OR LIMITATION FADING AWAY TO REVEAL ABUNDANCE AND FREEDOM OF PROSPEROUS ACTIVITY… AS THE DROPPING AWAY OF INHARMONIOUS RELATIONSHIP TO REVEAL LOVING AND JOYFUL RELATIONSHIP… AND AS EVERY RESTRICTION AND HARDSHIP OF LIFE DISSOLVING TO REVEAL JOY AND HAPPINESS IN EVERY DEPARTMENT.</span></em></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Our friend, our business, our employment, our illness or disease does not need our “working on it” before it becomes perfect, pure and whole. IT NEEDS OUR RELEASE. Spirit does not need your help or mine to BE SPIRIT. But it DOES need our RELEASING of even the THOUGHT that anything needs fixing, improving, prospering or healing.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">How can Spirit need fixing? It is already whole, perfect and infinitely <em>present</em> - omnipresent - right where you are and I am. How can Spirit need improving, prospering or healing? It is already whole, abundant, complete and blissful. The moment we KNOW this, and then meditate to HAVE THIS KNOWING PERMEATE FOR, AS, AND THROUGH OUR CONSCIOUS AWARENESS IN A GREATER DEGREE, and we then RELEASE all thought of person, thing or condition IN THE KNOWING THAT IT IS PURE SPIRIT AND THEREFORE NEEDS NOTHING FROM ME, we discover the ‘healing,’ ‘harmonising’ and ‘prospering’ consciousness that performs miracles as far as the five-sense mind is concerned.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">But do you see that it is not really a miracle? It is simply AWAKENING to the omnipresence of Spirit as everything, everywhere, needing nothing at all from me or you OTHER THAN OUR AWARENESS OF ITS PRESENCE AND OUR STILLNESS AND SILENCE OF BEING through which to express without hindrance.</span></p>]]></content:encoded>

  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">There comes a time when we decide to drop all personal effort in our search for Truth within ourselves. We reach a point where we have tried and tried and tried to have Spirit flood our experience and harmonize our life and affairs, yet we’ve had little or only spasmodic success. Maybe we’ve been trying for months, years, or even decades and although SOME harmony and prosperity has appeared it is not anywhere near ENOUGH to transform our whole experience and leave us free from the shackles that stubbornly bind us to one form of limitation or another.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Then we realise: Here I am trying to realise Truth MYSELF. All these months, years or decades I have thought that it is MY job to bring a realisation of Spirit to my life. So I have sat for hundreds or thousands of hours TRYING TO CRACK THIS MYSTERY CALLED TRUTH assuming that my dedicated effort will bring Its fruitage to me.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Ah, that’s where we’ve gone wrong. But strangely enough, all the effort we’ve made until now has been a necessary phase of the awakening of consciousness to the point we’ve reached now: COMPLETE SURRENDER OF THE PERSONAL SENSE OF SELF TO THE INFINITE, ONE SELF.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Now our mode of awareness and meditation changes completely. Now we sit down for a meditation and instantly realise within ourselves that I CAN DO NOTHING MYSELF. It is no use ME trying to ‘bring’ the awareness of Spirit to myself by churning over dozens of statements of Truth in my mind. That practice was for yesterday but we’re going to drop it now.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Now, we simply SURRENDER all effort and RELY COMPLETELY on SPIRIT to do the awakening in our consciousness. We simply sit in silence, empty in mind, not ‘working’ the mind at all, resting it, and creating of it an EMPTY, CLEAN ‘HOUSE’ FOR SPIRIT TO INHABIT. What a relief! What a sense of release of all burden and need for effort in the realisation that I AM SPIRIT, AND SPIRIT NEEDS NO HELP FROM ME, AND INDEED IS COMPLETELY UNTOUCHED BY MY GRINDING EFFORT!</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Simply sit and receive. That’s all. Sit in attentive expectancy of the Spirit that you are to make ITSELF known to your awareness in ITS own way which, remember, is infinite all-knowing Mind, bliss, harmony, supply, companionship, love, happiness, joy, pleasure, and limitless fulfilment. So do not think a thing. And certainly do not wish for Spirit to ‘fix’ a problem in your experience! Remember, it is only our finite mind that sees the problem and cannot solve it. Spirit sees no problem BECAUSE SPIRIT HAS NO PROBLEM and, in your pure state - WHEN YOUR MIND IS SILENT, EMPTY AND RECEPTIVE - you ARE that Spirit in full (or greater) awareness.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Only when the mind is not churning away can Spirit inhabit it. Even the churning of statements of Truth in mind block the ACTUAL awareness of the presence of Spirit from your consciousness because ANY activity of mind is NOT an activity of Spirit. Spirit is SILENCE and therefore ONLY IN THE SILENT, EMPTY, RECEPTIVE MIND can Spirit become your vibrant awareness and tangible bliss.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Let me give you an example that will make this highest form of meditation crystal clear. Imagine you were a sunbeam and you had lived your entire life until now assuming that YOU had to create your own light and heat, and that your personal effort had the effect of blocking the SUN’S infinite light and heat from your experience. You can quickly see that your life would be dark and cold.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Then you wake up to the truth of your being. Although you are an individual sunbeam, that individuality is the infinite SUN expressing ITSELF AS YOU. Your entire existence, your entire being, is infinite individuality, NOT finite (personal) individuality.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">You realise that ALL you have to do to EXPERIENCE the infinity of fulfilment you crave for IS SIT IN SILENT RECEPTIVITY thereby LETTING the SUN freely pour ITS light and heat into, as, and through that point called you.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">You can see that YOU must make no effort, other than the effort of SITTING IN PURE OPENNESS, PURE RECEPTIVITY allowing the SUN to BE YOU in all its fullness. And how ‘quickly’ will you experience that fullness? Instantaneously. Why? Because the fullness of the sun IS ALREADY WHERE YOU ARE but YOU have been blocking it from your individual experience through a false effort of personal sense.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">This EXACTLY describes the method which is the highest form of meditation discovered and practiced by the greatest ‘healers’ of all time. It is a COMPLETE SILENCING of the mind, a COMPLETE DROPPING of all personal sense and personal desire to solve this or that, or prosper this or the other, or ‘get’ this thing or that thing. It is the art of SITTING WITH A SILENT, OPEN, ATTENTIVE, RECEPTIVE mind and then, with a little patience, LETTING SPIRIT BE SPIRIT FOR, AS, AND THROUGH YOU.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Simply WAIT PEACEFULLY AND PATIENTLY for the FEELING of Spirit HAPPENING within you. You’ll feel It as peace, or a sense of release from what has been concerning you, or a warmth or heat welling up from within you, or a bliss, or euphoria, or a beautiful understanding (awareness) about something of Spirit that you have wanted to understand.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">When you have felt this ‘happening’ within you can get up and get on with your day in the absolute knowledge that the Spirit you FELT WITHIN will now quickly appear in your tangible sense-world of HARMONIOUS FORM as the need or desire fulfilled. Never, never, NEVER look for the form; keep your awareness gently permeated in Spirit, but have an inner absolute assurance that the Spirit FELT WITHIN ALWAYS… infallibly… appears to the mind-world AS the need fulfilled, and abundantly so.</span></p>]]></content:encoded>

  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The secret of demonstrating an infinity of all good, right here where you and I stand, is to lift awareness up and away from what APPEARS to our senses as all physical forms of life INTO the atmosphere of Spirit - the intangible - where an infinity of All exists WITHOUT THE PHYSICAL FORMS BEING NECESSARY.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The great mystery and miracle of life is that WHEN WE LIFT AWARENESS UP AND AWAY FROM THE PHYSICAL FORMS into the awareness of pure Spiritual allness of being (fulfilment of all at the point called you) WITHOUT FORM BEING NECESSARY the perfect forms are always present in our physical experience.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">That&#8217;s the great miracle. No one throughout history has been able to explain HOW Spirit works, other than the dim awareness we have that Spirit appears to our physical senses AS all forms. But we must reach the point as quickly as we can manage to, of not caring how Spirit appears to&nbsp;our senses&nbsp;as form. It does. And that is where our&nbsp;curiosity in the outer appearing world of form should end.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Our entire interest and desire must be in SPIRITUAL REALISATION, SPIRITUAL DWELLING, SPIRITUAL LIVING. The outer world of abundant, glorious FORM then takes care of itself, in wondrous ways and experience of fulfilment in every department of existence.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Let me try to explain it like this:</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Imagine you are the sun. You are the infinite fire, light and heat ITSELF.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Now imagine you have, this hour, temporarily lost awareness of yourself, what you are, what you have, and the effect of your light and heat as it pours throughout the universe. Your awareness has come crashing down to earth and now occupies a tiny patch of light on a wall. YOUR TEMPORARY AWARENESS OCCUPIES NO MORE THAN THE MEASUREMENT AND CONFINES OF THAT TINY PATCH OF LIGHT ON THE WALL. That tiny patch is the totality of what you think you are, what you think you have, and what effect you think you create in your life.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Just imagine it! Suddenly, you would be in a panic. Demands are being made on you for which you do not possess sufficient supply. Your body becomes ill or diseased because you do not possess sufficient health or fullness of life. Companionship becomes unsatisfactory because you think the only available companions are to be found within your tiny patch of being, or you assume you haven&#8217;t got what it takes to attract the perfect partner. Employment and business activity becomes hard and never quite as gloriously fulfilling as you want it to be because you and only draw on resources limited to the confines of your tiny patch of existence.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">And so on throughout EVERY department of your life. Life seems to be, by degree, a never-ending series of limitations, lacks, difficulties, unfulfilled dreams, desires and needs, sadness, unhappiness, and fears.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Yes, of course! All you are aware of, temporarily, are the confines of the tiny patch of light on the wall you have falsely assumed as being you, what you have, and what you can do, achieve and experience.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">That tiny patch of light represents what we falsely THINK we have to get more of in any and every department of life that shows up as a challenge, limitation or lack.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Let&#8217;s take supply. As a tiny patch of light we discover it doesn&#8217;t take too much living as an individual or business owner before we run out of supply. We have used all the light we possess as a tiny patch because we have assumed the TANGIBLE light in our patch is the SUPPLY of light we have available to us to use in this physical experience.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">So what do we do? We go in search of more PATCHES of light. We search for the tangible because in our temporary unawareness we have thought that all we HAVE is just what we can see, hear, taste, touch, smell and think. Then we, as a race of beings, concoct all sorts of creative methods of getting and earning more patches of light (money and every other form of supply).</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Most of these methods are more ethical than some! But, at their core - whether we call it working hard and ethically for money, or stealing it - all methods are mislead because they each focus on getting or earning or making light patches (money). But making patches of light is impossible without the SOURCE of light that creates the patch, so they fail to be the prosperous fulfilment we seek. We try but continually run short. We continually seem to need more, and most of us need it quickly or else we&#8217;ll soon be in a lot of trouble.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">You can see how BIZARRE this scenario is! You can also see that the whole scenario of limitation is caused by a LACK OF AWARENESS. That&#8217;s all. You - the sun itself - thinks it is short of light and heat and so tries to make more by concocting methods of manufacturing light and heat without access to the SOURCE - the creative substance and activity itself.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">What is your real need? Is it more PATCHES of light and heat? No. What you need is a renewed AWARENESS that, actually, you ARE the SUN aware of itself individually at this POINT in the universe called you, and that that AWARENESS that you ARE the entirety of light and heat ITSELF produces all the light and heat PACTHES you will ever have need or desire of in the physical.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Of course it does! It cannot STOP itself from appearing physically and tangible. But you are not now concerned about the physical because your REAL nature is the intangible light and heat itself. You ARE the very INFINITY of light and heat, and so you never concern yourself with how your light and heat APPEARS in the physical. You simply USE your appearing physical PATCHES of light and heat to trade with and play with, BUT YOU NEVER TRY TO &quot;GET MORE&quot; BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOU ALREADY HAVE ALL.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">You are the VERY CAUSE of every patch of light and heat you experience tangibly. You are not &quot;getting&quot; them, you ARE them! Do you see this? All that is happening when you SEE something in the physical is that you are seeing the EFFECT of YOU APPEARING to the physical senses. The patch of light you and I see is the SUN LIGHT appearing tangibly to the physical senses. But the PATCH is an illusion of effect. The PATCH is not what it seems to be because actually it is INVISIBLE LIGHT appearing tangibly ONLY BECAUSE OUR TANGIBLE SENSES PERCEIVE IT IN SUCH A WAY. The real SUBSTANCE is the LIGHT. Get the awareness of your infinity of LIGHT and youâ€™ll have as many PATCHES OF LIGHT as you can use in a million lifetimes of physical experience.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">That&#8217;s the secret of demonstrating supply. Never attempt to demonstrate MONEY because that&#8217;s the seducer! - the thought that the PHYSICAL (the PATCH) is what we need. You&#8217;ll find yourself possessing all the money you ever want and need, and in NEVER ENDING abundance WHEN YOU LIFT AWARENESS UP AND AWAY FROM THE PHYSICAL APPEARING MONEY, AND INTO PURE SPIRIT WHERE MONEY IS NOT NECESSARY TO FULFILMENT.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">This is the secret of secrets! Please understand this. Read it a hundred times if necessary until your consciousness suddenly pops into awareness, and most of all SIT IN THE SILENCE AFTER READING IT A FEW TIMES - EMPTY YOUR HOUSE - AND LET SPIRIT MOVE IN.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Lift your awareness into SPIRIT where there is NO NEED FOR MONEY - just pure, infinite Peace, Bliss, Completeness WITHOUT TANGIBLE FORM, AND WITHOUT A NEED FOR TANGIBLE FORM - and you will discover the great miracle is just as true for you today as it was for the greatest masters of the ages: that an infinity of supply of all good, including money and all good things, is omnipresent right at the place you are standing, and becomes an infinity of TANGIBLE THINGS, PEOPLE, PLACES AND CONDITIONS TO YOUR TANGIBLE SENSES AND EXPERIENCE.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">But you never look for them or concern yourself over them because - IF you are still doing that - you have not understood what I am teaching you: that YOU ARE SPIRIT - you ARE the SUN - and so there is nothing more than that WHOLENESS you can add to yourself, or desire. How can there be? You cannot ADD anything to WHOLENESS. The infinity that you ARE, and that you now AWAKEN TO and BASK IN - your infinity of SPIRITUAL BEING - obviously APPEARS to the physical senses AS money, healthy organs, life-filled body, wonderful relationships, creative business or employment, happiness and joy of all life - just as sunlight OBVIOUSLY APPEARS to the physical senses AS PATCHES of light on the wall. OPEN your AWARENESS to the infinity of SPIRIT that you ARE and you find yourself in possession of an infinite number of &quot;patches&quot; of&nbsp;health, money, home, car, holidays, success, happiness and harmony in every department of individual experience.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">You can see how the same applies to every challenge or limitation we face. WE ARE ONLY FACING IT BECAUSE OUR AWARENESS OF WHAT AND WHO WE ARE, AND WHAT WE HAVE, IS CONFINED TO THE TINY PATCH OF BEING WE HAVE THOUGHT WE ARE.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">You are NOT finite in any way, and nor am I. You and I and every person, thing and condition are THE ONE INFINITE SPIRIT. That&#8217;s it. You do not need any more awareness than that because the moment you AWAKEN TO your true infinite identity all the PATCHES OF HARMONY, HEALTH AND WEALTH appear to the physical senses. The moment you awaken to your true identity YOU NO LONGER HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT THE PATCHES OF PHYSICAL-APPEARING HEALTH, HAPPINESS, LOVE, and PROSPERITY and yet - IN YOUR UNCONCERN - you find all of life flowing harmoniously, healthily, lovingly and prosperously.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Let&#8217;s take health. You see how, if there is an appearance (a patch) of ill health or injury or disease, in order to see that appearance dissolve into nothingness we must LIFT AWARENESS UP AND AWAY from the physical appearing thing or condition INTO the PURE AWARENESS OF INTANGIBLE SPIRIT where ill health, injury and disease do not exist. IT IS IN THAT PURE AWARENESS OF SPIRIT THAT THE HEALING OCCURS.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The healing appears to our physical awareness WHEN - and ONLY when - we have LIFTED ABOVE being concerned about the illness, injury or disease in the knowledge that the APPEARING problem is just the PATCH. It has no cause, no substance, no power. By the way, if you want to PROVE that physical things and conditions have no cause, substance or power try shutting off the SOURCE of light from the PATCH of light and see how long it remains on the wall. Of course, IT DISAPPEARS INSTANTANEOUSLY.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">There is NO cause, substance or power in ANYTHING you and I can experience in the tangible. All cause is SPIRIT and therefore GOOD. You ARE that SPIRIT and all you have to do is lift your awareness UP AND AWAY from the physical INTO the pure SPIRIT and REST THERE with an EMPTY, OPEN, PEACEFUL, ATTENTIVE, INVITING attitude - with NO CONCERN or INTEREST in the physical need or desire - and simply LET the SPIRIT that you are EXIST FREELY IN, AS, and THROUGH your consciousness.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Your SPIRITUALIZED CONSCIOUSNESS always then APPEARS as an infinity of patches in your physical experience - healthy, fit, energetic body and mind; abundance of achievement, money and opportunity; beautiful relationships; happy, loving conditions; creativity, performance, achievement, attainment; joy, happiness and freedom in every endeavour and department of life. But you and I make no physical effort to get these conditions, we simply continually LIVE and BATHE in the AWARENESS of the infinity of SPIRIT being who we are and who every being is, what we are and what every being is, and what we have and what every being and place has. </span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">But NEVER AGAIN do we become CONCERNED when something looking like a challenge or demand or accident or disease turns up either personally or to someone in our life. INSTANTLY we recognize it as a PATCH that the HUMAN MIND (human five-sense awareness) would term difficult or impossible or upsetting or business-threatening or even life-threatening.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">INSTANTLY we LIFT UP AND AWAY from the appearing problem INTO PURE SPIRITUAL AWARENESS where there IS NO FORM, either good or bad. There is JUST PURE INTANGIBLE SPIRIT, BLISS, PEACE. As you DWELL in that Spirit - as you actually LIVE there (in spiritual awareness) all day - AS BEING YOUR ONLY TRUE NATURE AND SUBSTANCE - and you STEADFASTLY hold onto your SPIRITUAL AWARENESS ONLY never allowing yourself to become entangled in the belief that the PATCH you are seeing is something to work on or resolve.&nbsp;Then you will quickly see the problem dissolve away or correct itself as the harmony it really is.</span></p>
  <p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">That&#8217;s the secret of demonstration.</span></p>]]></content:encoded>
