ond, in ether waves, in eternal radiations, volcanic upheavals, in life forms of infinite variety.

To feel at home and at ease amid this tremendous power, you must know that you are attuned to this power of Eternal Law, Universal Mind, that holds worlds and stellar-systems’ in their unwavering courses through uncharted space

POWERHOUSE DRAWS ENERGY FROM AIR

All over the United States are scattered great electric powerhouses. With each electric powerhouse are. dynamos,.either driven by, steam or harnessing power of some immense waterfall.

Each of these dynamos is a man-made machine that literally draws electrical energy out of the air. No man yet knows what electricity is.

Again, vibration. Let us content ourselves by saying that light and electricity as the servant of men, is an unknown energy carrying limitless POWER, drawn from the atmosphere, pulsating at a tremendous vibration‑

rate.

CONNECTING THE POWERHOUSE WITH THE MACHINE

Connecting the powerhouse with a thousand machines or with the many sub-stations which retransmit this power, called electricity, and transform this energy into the millions of lights of the great cities, are many, many copper wires wound into insulated cables, called powerlines.

The number and size of these power lines and the size of each cable are calculated exactly to carry safely the volume, of electric current, or, the ‘power load, I desired or necessary for the work to be done.

Universal God-Mind-Power vibrates in the finer ethers of the farthest inter stellar place and pulsates in the very air you breathe.. This is the Power.inexhaustible that each student is taught to use again and again— HERE AND NOW.

RELAX AND CONCENTRATE

For the deeper development of this awareness of your indwelling Universal God-.h find, you must learn to relax and to concentrate perfectly at the same time. During your devotional period of relaxation each evening there must no tense-mess and no straining of body, muscles or mind. Learn to “just let go” both physically and mentally. During this period, as you sit, quietly close your eyes and try to forget everything in the world, except that you are here to MEET GOD IN THE SILENCE, and receive Power and guidance in the fulfillment of your One Great Desire.

Lesson 3.2

GOD IS THE ULTIMATE GOOD, God is Love.

All “religious” people of all creeds, churches and denominations mentally assent that these two statements are true. It is quite the polite and quite the conventional thing to do. So, these good people give a superficial, mental belief to these two statements.

But Paul tells us, “...the devils also believe, and tremble.” (James 2:19)

Again quoting Paul, we learn that this deep, this intense, this “heart” be-lief is the price of righteousness (rightness). “FOR WITH THE HEART man believeth into righteousness.” (Romans 10:10)

Many of these good people always see God through very dark glasses. They tell us God causes wars, disease and death. They describe the Infinite as hateful, malicious and vengeful. But this is because these good people strain the God-Thought through the sordid vibrations of their own dark and narrow mental world.

“O Ye of Little Faith, “ said the Great Teacher

Today millions pray for peace, but their own deeper minds image only war. So, the infinite becomes to them the God of war.

Countless men and women who today are joyfully following The Pathway to abundant attainment have at some time constantly been misled.

They, too, earnestly petitioned the Infinite for riches and prosperity. Then when only poverty seemed to be their master and answer to prayer, they meekly compromised by agreeing with some misguided “religious” teaching,.that GOD had chosen poverty for them, rather than prosperity.

Now these same men and women are learning in the The Academy of Philosophical Operational and Future Science Inc. that they were limited only because in their secret hearts they BELIEVED IN LIMITATIONS. Thus they reversed THE ROYAL SPIRITUAL LAW OF UNIVERSAL MIND, and, unknowingly, turned its tremendous powers of-attraction to the NEGATIVE things of life, to limitation, to frustration, to failure, to poverty or to sickness.

Remember, such errors are mental. But they can be very costly Those “of little faith” simply postpone heal­ing, prosperity and happiness ... infinitely. “Sin” exists only in your human mind FOR YOU. Evil is self-creat­ed... in human minds FOR YOU. Evil is self-created. The only powers that these unrealities—these negatives can have is that with which you endow them by your own thought.

Should you unconsciously endow these unrealities with power from your UNIVERSAL GOD-MIND, by perverting that power, then these negative thoughts will assume a cruel and heartless mastery over your entire life.

THE THRONE OF UNIVERSAL GOD-MIND

The throne (center) of the UNIVERSAL GOD-MIND IS WITHIN YOU. “...and report that God is in you of a truth.”

You can develop AND USE that Universal God-Mind consciousness just as easily and just as certainly as you can develop and use your mental or your intellectual consciousness

This is THE IMMUTABLE LAW OF GOD.

UNIVERSAL MIND—GOD—working through Universal Energy and the Universal Substance of all ani­mate and inanimate creation VIBRATES IN HARMONY WITH the Universal God-Mind in you. But an long as you live on the purely physical and mental planes or levels of consciousness, just so long will

this Universal God-Mind in you remain dormant, inactive and unused, herein because you have thus excluded the greatest power in the world from your awareness.

UNIVERSAL GOD-MIND IN YOU CONTACTS COSMIC POWER

Let us turn for a few minutes to the Ancient Wisdom of the Bible. From that Secret Wisdom let us learn something about this majestic Cosmic (God) Power which will work miracles for you, if you but consciously direct the Universal God-Mind within you.

“But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is He that giveth thee power to get wealth.” (Deut. 3:18). The Power that gives wealth.

“He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might (the weak ones) He increaseth strength.” ( Isaiah 40:29). This power is the gift of strength to; the faint, to the weak.

The Eternal Law of Abundance surrounds us with an unseen ocean of power and when we contact this power by receptive thought-attitudes, our lives are transformed into the riches of Abundance.

The moment when you come to truly realize this simple but tremendously important truth, wonderful things will begin to come into your life as if by magic.

Your life is the channel for the expression of power through. oneness with Universal Mind. Modern science tells us that there are no lights in the rays thrown out-by the sun until those rays reach the atmosphere of our earth. Like-wise , there is no light in electricity until that energy reaches a globe or some material object which can manifest its incandescence. A divine light shines from Universal Mind Power until human lives and human thoughts are attuned to that expression.

A COSMIC BANK THAT HONORS YOUR DEMANDS

When you realize and show faith in its reality, you can draw from this cosmic bank of Universal Mind as much as you will for your Success and Happiness. It is a never-failing force which will manifest through you in ever greater fullness as you keep your mind attuned to the right current of thought. Stop trying to generate force by spasmodic efforts. Call those wandering thoughts to that peaceful center within your mind and rely entirely on the supreme power of. Universal Mind which you will feel flowing into you from the unseen. Use your will only to direct that power as it flows through you, just as you use your, will to steer a car.

PICTURE YOURSELF AS A MAGNET

Just picture yourself as a magnet, drawing from the outer world all the things necessary to your Happiness. Your Power to draw from the LIMITLESS SUPPLY will increase day by day as the Force of your demand increases.

By your desire you will create fox yourself a thought atmosphere attuned to your motive and your Heart’s Desire.

Your persistent, silent demand of the infinite will never be denied ... nor lost.

LIMITLESS POWER OF ETERNAL LAW

Mortal mind cannot comprehend such terrific power as that of Eternal Law! Throughout the Universe Law reveals itself in mighty motion, in rotations and revolutions of planets, in flashing comets, in spiral blazing nebulae, in meteoric bombardments, in light that travels seven and one half around the earth in a single sec‑
