leads to improvement, but awakening the brain af spIrit for greater spiritual responsiveness. lead& to transformation. Second,'aince the brain of spirit i& far down 1n the bodyJust above the lddneY's - it can be awakened only by those meana which do ~ down thro~h the body. Third" a:n.y attempt to use DIRIDT ~ of awakening sTllrit, hinder full manifestation, just as you injure a rosebud. if you use DIRECT means - try to pulllts petals apa.rt! ~ll

And fourth, do not try to awaken the brain of spirit b1 thought - never by affirmation or concentration. There are ~wo re.ults which you MOST desire! They are heavenly results, because when they are attained, all other things are added. The first reeu1t 70U want, 1. abundant overflowing energr IN TOur body - energy in8plr~d from the universe - pulsating like flame of life all THROUGH your bo~. This is important, for 99~ of TOur problems would dis8.pJ)ear completely. if lOu had only twice the energy ~ou now have.

a-

The second result you desire 1s the constant flow of energy OUT INTO free and full activity! Merely pos8essing abundant overflowing spiri tual energy IN your body 1s not enough. lou want it EVER nDViING OUT. tree17 and tully, l~to ACTION!

To attain the first condi tion, I teach you to tune-up bod7 to spirit, and awaken the Brain of Spirit. 80 lOU WILL in-spire (takein) more divlne energy than you have dreamed polsible!

To attai~ the second condition, I teach 70U to use the Seven Crea ti va POV'ers of God - to impel all soul power to move out in to aotion to vi talize every cell through which 1 t moves, and transform every condition of your 11fe. I mow you have already tried many means and methods, and that most of them have not come up to your expectations. BUT lOU have NOT yet used the UNKNO'.l1 powers! You do not even know them! Of course, you know the powers of mind, and love, and life. ~ut there are other powers unlcno'\'lll to you. There are the unknown initiating powers - holy light, high electronic energy, mighty silent overtones, and rb7thm. I 8.1so call these powers. the operati powers!

.e

Clearly understand, there are two groups of

~reat power •• One group.i. the in1tl.tive, or operating powers. The others ~e conceptive powers - of God and the soul. TbB conceptive powers are mind, l~ve, life end spirit.

1-4

Most peopl~ make the mistake of de~ending.entirelv on the conceptive powe~~ ~thout preparing the body for their use, by first using the initiative or operative powers. Some clai~ that only conceptive ~owers should be used. This is ~Q.! sens~.ble. Heat is one of the operative pOwers, and you kno~ v~ry ~ell th~t mind or life or love can NOT manifest through your body. if it is frozen stiff. Head IS an-e;sential. So are all other initiative poners. I am teaching you uses of po~ers. never taught previously. First, tune un. the body by initiative or opera.tive powers. THmJ you ~ll never fail to work transforming changes, when using the conceptive powers of mind and love and 11fe and spirit. So please give careful attention to using these mighty operative and initiative power, first. They are powerful.

The light rays you can NOT see, are 1.000 times more po\'?erful than the light r~8 you can see. The high un.\mO"t'Il electric rSl'B are rejuvenating, althouch 110 volts will shock you and a 25.000 volt current can kill! And there are the mighty lmknown powers of silent tone. The miracle of the UNKNOWN powers, 1s this: Whenever you TUNEUP a lower destructive power 80 that it vibrates more like spirit, it then changes its effect, and becomes a constructive power. You can use these, to TUNE-UP J'our bod.y. to vibrations of higher unknown power, 80 that transformation can take place. For example. when the low electric current which will kill your bodr. is stepped up a million volts and its fre~uency increased, then its deadly current becomes beneficial, because it is ~ INTUNE wi th ~he api rl t power in a~. body. You can not even feel this higher unknown electric power, but when an x-ray bulb 1s held against your skin, it glows with a beautiful light; And when a 1,000.000 volt current 1s passing through your bo~v. it seems to rejuvenate the bodY. Another un~ow.n initiating power 1s the ~vstlc UNHEARD overtones of SILEl{T sound! Glorious tones sing IN all things. even in YOUR body. Our human ears hear only a fel" tones. Dogs hear many more. and bats and ants hear still more and higher tones. You can NOT hear a tone of 25.000 vibrations a second! But ants hear tones of 50,000: and there are tones of crystal atones that vibrate 500.000 times a second. There are also tones of atoms and stars. Such tones are absolute SILENOE to our ears. They vibrate 1,000,000 or more times a secondt

1-5

The song tones o"f some STONES are V817 powerful. \¥hen a. pebble of laminated crystal is placed near an ant-bill, its song increases ~ctivlty of ants ten times. and without fatigue! The unknown tones' of atoms and stars have astounding power.

And your bod7 - ",hich 1s compoaed of cells which are oomposed'

of atoms - CAN be TUNlID-UP to re_lPOnd to such powers ~ These 'Lessons teach you to tuntt-up and spirt tualize your b041'9 to pulsate in harmony with the spirit of the uaiverse. 'ro do thi S t i t 1 B necessary to use powers which will reach deep down to awaken the Brain of Spiri t to free its powers. The first start in lifting-~ the body to greater responsiveness is effected by use of the initiating or operative po~rs. These powers are used to 1~1t1&te a greater responsiveness of the body, so that it will be prepared for the higher vibration of spirit actually to flow into eye~ cell of the bod7. These ~n1 tiat1n, powers are the higber unknown powers of light, sound. rhythm,. cosmic rays, at catera.

But to 11ft-up vibration of fOur body, and prepare 1 t to respond to spirit. you must use powerl. l!!! in! tiat1ng powers which -penetrate into the body. Several clo not; ev.en x-r~V's do not pailS through bone, so they are useless tor this purpose. jnd 1'OU can NOT use the unkn01frl powers of light for such initial awakening, because light never penetrates more than 1/100 ot one inch in to your skin. It it tries to ~o deeper. nature builds up a wall of tan to keen it out. or cooks your skin to blisterSa - Light in moderation is benefic1al to the outside cells, - that ls, 'to the skin cells. But it is deadly to the cell. of your !l!!!!! pb7alcal bod.,,! You can not often uae the unknown pO"1ers of high electric rqs, because the machines which produce vibrations of such high frequencies cost several million dollars! :;nd you can NOT ~ ~,{ind to awaken the :Brain 0 f Spl r1 t. :.. for thougnts of mind always tend to block expression of spirit. I do not need to argue this wi th you, for you know from experience that freedom of spirit has been blocked - perhaps all your life - bv thoughts of what ;vou should or should not do!

Yet many teachers have written books and lessons, to teach you to use 'only mind' to awaken spirito But when you follow such instruct~on. you ultimately find th~t you are not attaining that which you wish to attain, - no matter how thrilled you were the first few months of such effort. And often such methods - if continued for years - lead not only to disturbed body functions, but also to unbalancing of the mind!

1-6

Since your bo¢1 is not as responsive to s~rlt as you desire. it is wise - from the practical standpoint - to prepare the ~, BO thnt. s-pirit can n2rmal~ manifest throueh it more fully. This is done by means of the operatiye powers, whioh INITIATE of ~ bo~.

But there 1 B m!&! ONE ot the in! tlatlng powers which you can easily use which haa power to effect the initial preparation of the bodJ structure and which a180 penetrate. it, 80 that its cell. will vibrate highly enough to begin to respond to spirit.

Orientals have knom this power for oenturies. They have tr1e~ to teach it to us, but we have unders\ood it only mentallY. j,nd even their Olm teachers have lost the spiri tual under.tanding of it, and teach only the mental and ph7aical exeroises. that ~'ban

!§

Silent sound 1s the harmonizing power of the universe. We have evidence of this. when i te higher overtone, are vibrated through matter. It is only the lower tones which rip matterapart and destroy it. The higher overtones - the silent overtones - are so constructive that they actual17 build up substance, even new ti slUes of the human bod1'. It is these higher unheard overtones Which I teaoh YOU to use to initiate the a~kenlns of the Brain of Spirit. and prepare the body to vibra.te he.rmoniousl.,. enough to respond to spirit. silent overtone. are m7s~10 energies of atRra and atome. They Rre the only power you ~ use to initiate reapons1 venell of the bod1 - for colors and light can not even penetrete the skin, 10U can not secure the means of producing the higher electric vibrations; and .t~ught tends to repress the power of spirit.

So if TOU use the deep loving tones in your voice, particularly in the ~rk I give you to do in these Lessons to tune-up your body t you will produce unkn01Vn and unheard overtones of beauty and power vibrating all through your body.

Be certain that the powers which work alike, produce results that ·are alike. The overtones of your bo~ will be like the overtones of sta.rs and atoms, and you will begin to respond to the harmony of the universe, IF your tones are tones of love. Do you, my friend,

no~ begin to realize ho~ uleless it i8 merethoughts. to produce harmonY'? There must be A.ct'tlal response of the entire bocb". before ;rour body can respond to the harmony of the universe.

THE GREATER SPIRITUAL RESPONSIVENESS OF BODY AND

A';1AKENING THE BRAIN OF SPIRIT

by

Brown Landone

FOUR BRAINS and IMPROVEMENT

VB ~SFORMATION

LESSON III

~~IRIT is the most powerful mfERGY of the universe. The physicist calls it, cosmic-energy. The biologist, life. We call it spirit - the radiancy of God. ADRENAL is the name 0 f one of the tiny organ s of the body. It enfolds a medulla of br~in cells. The sUbstance of these cells is th~ most EQ.!!erful SUBSTANCE kno~ ~ earth.

Since s~irit is the highest energy of the universe and the aotual matter of the adrenal is earth's most powerful Bub stance , they form the union of the highest po~er 1n the most spiritualized matter. It is the mystic-wedding of spirit and matter! Transformation differs from development or improvement. No matter ho~ highly you develop a grub-worm, it's still a worm! But transformation changes the grub into a butterfly~ .":';e have improved the body for ages - by di at, breathing, baths, exercise. developmental trB1ning. mental control. ~e hAve attained a high degree of thought consciousness. ~e have also been taught 'mind-power' - teachings of the 00cult; and also consciousness of inner light, use of the violet ray, the vibrant Om, realization of the absolute, et cetera. In these Lessons ~ retain ALL that is helpful of these means, and then ADD the use of Spirit itself.

also use the nower of spiritual desire! Desire is not spirit itsftlf'J but 1 tis the activa.ting power of Spirit. It puts spirit into action. It also awakens and greatly augments the activity of each one of the seven creative powers which I teach you.in later Lessons. ~e

~efore discussing desire. I wish you to know what and where the Brain of Spirit is. It is the brain, which mystics knew long ago, but knowledge of it had long been lost to modern man. It has bepn recently re-dlscovered. It 1s NOT the brain in the skull. for that 1s the mind brain It is not the solar-plexus. the emotive or love brain. It is not the sacral· plexus; that is, life or ~ex brain.

The power of each brain works marvels; but their power is as nothing compared to the spiritual po~er of the Brain of Spirit. Even the subs tanee of the Brain of Spi ri tis pO""ferful. Matter which lacks power, lacks spirit. Hatter which is po",erful. throbs vri th s"Oiri t. The a.ctual substance of this hidden brain of spirit is so FILtED with spirit, and hence so powerful, that W~ dare not inject a drop of its purs sUbstance into the blood of a human being. ~e first dilute one drop of it in 100,000.000 drops of water. Science proves that this substance of the Brain of Spirit is more powerful than any other substance known on e~rth!

mav

This brain is the brain of brains! Surgeons can remove a third of the brain of the skull, and individual can still 1i.e on. The solar-plexus oan be injured, the person will not die. The sacral (sex) brain can be inhibited, the testes or ovaries removed. and yet the health of the body even be improved. . BUT IF Brain of .§I?iri t 1s seriously injured, ~ 1s DEATH! This brain is THE center of spiritual desire.

Man l"8i ted 300.000 years ... befo,re a Teacher appeared who proclaimed the power of desl re - by promi sing "What things soever ye desire - - - ~ shall have." Then, man waited nearly 2,000 ~ears more, before he discovered in his own bo~. the secret brain of spirit, the brain which is moved only by spiritual desire.

By desire, man's energy - even in ordinary life - can be Dlul tiplied four-fold or forty-fold in a few minutes!

We have known of such results in the past. But we have not known how to affect them at will! For example, when I was seventeen I was ill in bed. I had been an invalid all my life. I was so weak that I had to be ~arried up and down stairs. Yet phen I was a~kened by la fire l one night. I got up alon~, dragged two heavily loaded trunks do~ two flights of stairs and ~cross the street! It was m~ desire to save the treasures in those trunks. which awakened in me, that astounding energy. Yet one hour later - using all my fai th in thought power, and physical energy. I could not 11ft one end of either of those trunks! Uhy? By that time, the desire to save the trunks !!! gone, because they had alrea~ been saved! Each new di scovery of e. different brain in the body has initiated a great new advance.

a

3-15

Herophilus, lome 300 years before Christ, recognized the brain in the head as the center of thought. Then, for almost 2,200 years, man mistakenly assumed that all other soul powers also manifested through that one mind brain. ~ben a young man. new in medioal science, my observations a8 a neurologist convinced me that two of the great plexuses of the . nervous system, were not merely plexuses. but that they were actual brains which functioned individually as brains.

Later, I performed 1,400 experiments and testa which proved it. time my conclusions were ridiculed. 'Toda;r however, 1n every metical college, there are textbooks often three-volume referenc~ books - on ·this same subject - giving proof that these plexuses!!! brains.

At

tb~t

By 1922, man had definitely differentiated the functions of three great brains in the body! (a) the mind brain in the skull. (b) the emotive brain of solar plexus, on an approximate level of the stomach, but back in torso. in front of the spine. (c) the!!! - or sacral brain - lower in the torso.

Now! FOURTg brain has been discovered - that 1s, fourth in the order of discovery! It is not a mind brain: or love brain, or life brain. II IS ~ brain of SPIRIT power! The ancient mystics seemed to know of this brain of spirit, and even knew its location, - for they wrote of the spirit of man being centered 1n hi B reins. Reins is an old word for kidneys. Their inspirational knowledge of long ago has now become proven fact. Today it IS proven that such a brain does exist, and in the particular part of the bo¢y des1gnated by the ~vstics 3.000 years ago. It is just above the kidne,ys. The kidneys are also called the renals, and hence anything above them is super. Therefore we have the word suprarenal. In lower animals which do not stand upright. the glands are no t above the ki dneys , but in tron t of the kl dne)'s • Fence in lower animals. they are called ad-renals. For m~ lears. I had been intuitively certain of the existence of a brain of spirit, because I could not believe that the miracle, wrought by hormone 8, were produoed b7 mere I Juices' of glands! Now m.y fai th and intui t10n are Justified.

Physiologists have now proven that the cells of the medulla of the suprarenal are NOT gland oellst They have proven that the cells of this medulla are brain cells - similar to cells of the sympathetic nerve pleiU;es.

The ~ part of each suprarenal is composed of gland tissue and functions as a ductless gland. Eut the inner part is brain cells~ functions as a brain! It is so phenomenal, that I wish at once to prevent 70U from confusing it ~th another gland - the pineal - which some writers who are sincere, but lack physiological knowledge, have mistakenly assu~ed is the seat of the soul. The pineal is composed mainly of a few flakes of lime sand held together bv connective tissuet Amazingly fantastic claim. have been made for it. but it is silly for ~y educated person to believe that lime sand is the kind of substance, through which spirit effects its supreme manifestation. Each of the four brains in the bo~v is fitted by the Creator to manifest one power more dominantly than all other powers. Rence there are four brains and four basic soul powers. Mind, which idealizes and directs. Love. which attracts and harmonizes! Life, which unites and reproduces! spirit, which inspires, impels action, and creates! Each soul ~!: has ! brain for 1 ts ~ ~~t1ou1ar tunot1onl The brain of spirit is the inner center of the suprarenal. It is a brain of spirit-energy. And only !plrit spiritualizes

all cells and all tissues! ~~ spirit creates ~d re-creates! Only spiri! ~ transform the ~! Only spin t can transfi~e !he powers of the soult This newly-discovered brain. IS the brain of spirit! But wbat do we mean b7 spirit? The word spirit designates the SUpreme Energy. because all energies which move in spirals are supremely powerful - that is, much more powerful than the energies which move forward in straight lines or in wave line •. In all early languages. the word for spiral and spirit, are the same! So I use the word spirit - in the same way the ancient mystics used it - to designate the supreme power - whether of the material or of the Iplritual world. This helps you to understand In-spiration! It is the act of dupreme energy spiraling-into physical structure. Since the ver,y substance of the brain of sfir1t 1s super-powerful, it can respond enough to in-spire (take-in spirit-energy of the universe. We are now almost at end of the path which leads to the seven at·eps which lead to the portico of the Temple of Transformation.

THE

GREAT~

SPIRITUAL RESPONSIVENESS OF BODY

AWAKENING THE BRAIN OF SPIRIT by Brown Landone

TWO STUPENOOUS TRUTHS - LIFE AND DEATH REVERSED - - - - LiSSON IV

This Lesson and Lesson VI contain three stupendous truth8. So far as I know, they have not been previously presented, except in private courses of my own. life

The first stupendous truth 1s the true un del's tanding of our t compared wi th the life of those who have passed on.

~lere

,

Death·is the word we use for passing on. (In all I write here, death refers only to the

~.)

Usually we apeak of those who have passed on, as dead! And very strangely. we think ot ourselves as the llrtng.

Yet both of these statements are NOT true! When the sperm and the ovum un1 te in the womb of the mother, there 1s life, impelled by spirit! The cell lives. and multiplies and increaseB its life. and if life means anything, it means iacrease of life and growth. Thi s procesB of increase and growth of the human continuel within the womb of the mother until the child is born. It continues after birth until the 21st or 22nd year. THEN, every human individual :BEGINS 'ro DIE. There is a2. more youthful growth or inorease in lite of ·the ordinary human individual after hi s 21st or 22nd year - except

in a few ver.y exceptional cases. Day ~~, the ~ of evea: adult slowly dies! So;ne die more rapidly than others.

So it is WI are the ones who 11" in the realm of death! Iven those of ua who are hapP7 that we have retsined vi tali ty and youthfulness through a number ot yeara - after all, the best we can say for ourselves is that we have NOT been ~ qui te as rapid'.y_ !:! other peopi e have. - - - -All adults on earth live in the realm of death. because they are dying individuale.

And strange. as soon as one passes on, he is free of this

condition.

~d

hence he live.

~ th~ ~

of the

11ving~

It 1s ! 8tUpendo~~ truth! We on earth, are alw~vs slowly ~ng in this realm of death. Those ~ho have passed on, are the ones ~o are truly living. From this, we CAn take the step in clear thinking. It leads to the second stupendous truth of life. The second 8tupendous truth 1s that our condition of continuous dying here, is due to the destructive energies which we mistakenly thin~ ~re energies that support life.

Tbe biologist or p~ysiologist has never found the primal cause of death in any study of the chemistry of the bo~y or any stu¢, of the p~yslo1ogical aotivities of the body. Please note that ph7siology does not mean the anatom1·or structure of the body, but its activity and functioning. Each thinking biologist or physiologist s~ys there should be ~ reason why the human body can not live forever. YET we are very oertain, that the body does die. To live. man depends on the ute of certain energies.

He depends on them for the functioning within his

bo~V.

How we come to my seeond stupendous truth! Ever" one of these energies on whioh man depends for life 1s a DESTRUCTIVE energy. it always tends to destroy whatever it temporarily builds !2.

We have been so stup1d, in our scientific study of energies, that it almost ~arp8 our faith in science and our own intelligence, Wben we learn that every energy which we have con8idered to be a constructive energy is basically a destructive energy. ~r a time each such energy mav stimulate and produce a temporar.y growth; but in 80 doing, it already starts the process of death because of its O~ destructiveness. Even all of our therapeutic sciences and efforts to heal th~ human body, d!pend upon use of destructive ener~iea. In fact not one medical physician or naturopath in ten million t knows what a constructive energy is.

For heallng we use heat, light, electriCity. x-ray, radium rays, and ohemical energy as in food and medicines .. We generally_expect these energies t~ heRl the body and give us llfe, - yet everyone of these is destructive, always destroying whatever it temporarily builds up.in us.

For instance, we depend on light for-life.

4-19

Some people are Great fadists of sun bathing, and even boast about how healthy they are, because so darkly tanned. But light is absolute death to the inner human body. It is so deadlv to the huma.1'l body, that na.ture provides that 1 ~hall not be allowed to penetrate the body. Light eRn not get into the skin, more than l/lOOth inch. NRture is very wi se and man is often very very dumb. V~en dumb man exposes himself to too much light, nature knO~8 enough to ~rotect him from killing off his O~ body. So nature puts up s. black-out curtain b£'t""'een lAvers of the skin - little particles of color through which light can not pass. That color is called tan. Nature deposits this shade of tan so light shall be kept out from the cells of the inner body, beCH.use light will kill any cell of any organ of the bOQY except the skin, in about t~ seconds! And 1 f nature does no t bui Id up a tan to keep light out of your bo~y so that it ~ll not kill you, then the light cooks your skin - that ls, blisters it - until you do et~y out of the light, until your skin has recovered enough of life, to be able to stand another dose of kllllng light.

Light even destroys the cells of the retina of the eye, if it is exposed to pure light such as sunlight. Explorers in Artic or Antarctic regions - whp.re light is often continuous for months, and reflected from the sno~ - go blind, because light destroys cells of the retina, unless the explorer protects his eyes by colored glasses, to shut out most of the light. Light even destroys th~ very qualities of its own nature. Light broken up into its different vibrations produces colors, but light destroys colors. It fades them. I am not writing this to oppose the us~ of light, but I am wri t1ng of a stupendous widely unkno'"'O truth.

The light - on ~~ich we depend for life - 1s a killing enemy of our bodies: it is one of the destructive energ1~s which even destroys that ~ich it itself builds up. ',7e also depend on hea.t for life, - for 1 f body temperature

drops

belo~ ~ certain degree, it is truly dan~erous to life. This is thp. re,l3son VIe inust eat foods, ~hich free a certain amount of heat (calories) in the bo~v.

;;e need hea.t to keep up the temperature of the organs. so

that the energies of the Inind and the soul and snirt t - that radia.te from bra.in centers and nerves - can easily manifest in and through the tissues of the bo~. But beat itself 1s destructive. It destroys the human body; destroys (burns up) ~od and other substances; even melts steel. I am not here fully discussing anyone of these energies.

4-20

I am merely telling enough so that you will recognize that each of the energies on which ~e depend for life, 1s destructive. Consequently all adult human beings - depending on such energies for life - live in a realm of death and slowly die, every dRy from the 21st or 22nd year. Sound also - although beautiful to our ears as music, can actuallY drive men insane; and it 1s proven bv laboratory experiment, that sound vibrations that approximate 8,000 vibrations per second disintegrate bones and teeth, and even the hardest substance found in the humAn body - gall stones. Now it might be considered beneficial to use such rays of sound to dissolve gall stones in the human bodY. except f~ the fact that if we placed the human body 1n the path of such sound wp.ves, the entire bo~V would be d1sintegratedt Even higher silent vibrations of sound, of laminated crystal stones - ~ dea41y to several fons of life. If you drop a. pebble of lamlna:ted crystal in to A. tank of milk. within a fe~ minutes. every ,erm in the milk is de~d. Or drop a pebble of a laminated crystal stone into your goldfish bowl. in half hour. every goldfish in the bowl will be dead. Since these sound vibrations are absolutelY silent. their dE'struetion of life. is "the mvstery of the silent deathtl. And electric rays can shatter glass, shrivel plants, and. k1ll animal life trom tiny cells up to the human bo~V.

X-ravs are also de8tructive~ they actually burn up organs of the bo¢r. So terribly destruct1ve that even the phYsician who uses them to cure others by such a destructIve energy, protects himself with gloves and stands behind 8 lead screen. And radium a180 is a destructive energy. A tiny bit of it in your body disintegrates all organic tissues, even bones. It 1s stupendous truth, is it not, that here on th1! earth depend on these energies for life. although each otthem 18 a destructive energy, and destroys with absolute certainty the human body to ~ichit is supposed to give life. ~

I am not 1~av1ng this subject here, for I have another stupendous truth to reveal to you in Leason VI. It 1s the truth of the seven great powers - the spiritual powers, whloh I have discovered - or rather re-discovered. Everyone of these is a constructive power. These are the seven powers God used to create the earth. Each day's creation reveals that a different power was used each daT, and that each produced a different result. Since those results are eternal they reveal that the powers ~h1ch produced them must be eternatly constructive, other~se God's creation would not have lasted. 4-21

'!'BE GREATER SPIRI TUAL RESPONSIVENESS OF BODY AND

AWAIINING THE BRAIN OF SPIRIT by Brown Landone

"SPIRITUALIZED" MATTER and RESPONSIVENESS - - -

LESSON !

It i8 now wise that I sum up tor you. the bases on which we are to proceed for your greater development: (1) the awaken1nc of the bra.in of spir1 t,; and the (2) increased spiritual responsiveness of your bod1. You now mow that man' B body begins ~ng at 21 or 22. and oontinues slowly 41ing for the rest of ita life on earth. You know that all the powers on whioh man haa depended for

lite. are destructive energies. rapidly killing You a180 now know that something more than ed for man's ereater advancem~nt here on earth. bod7 nor ID1nd of todlq surpass the body or mind

his bodY. i!provement is neecl- tor neither man's of the ancient

Igyptlan or Greek. Man must now make transforming changes in hi s body, otherwise he will stand atill, or even slip back. Since men begins dying at 21 or 22 7eue. something must be nonl wi th our methods, as well as our choioe of powers used. Man has prayed and idealized. striving earnestly both for ph~­ sical and api ri tual growth - using ma,ny means and methods. Yet he h!! often failed to attain all he haa tried to attain. We should face the truth, and find out g we fail. Nothing i 8 gained bY' our hush-hush method of ·not aQ'1ng anything about those who after claiming that theT have found the truth, still die while young. Let us face truth. and truth itself will give us the anewer. Truth i teel! has never failed, but our understanding hast And our mistaken applications of truth have often been wrong. Neither the most hygienic life combined with the best physical training. nor the most ideal life in accord 1t1 th Truth 'of min'd, has added to man's length of life.

The facts are these: Every professional strong man has died before he was 50: most of them before their 35th year! I am writing of those who took good care of themselves - not All rights

~e8erved

5-2 2

drinking. not smoking, not using foods supposed to be detrimental. Likewise. most of our great lea.ders of Truth whom we have admired. have died before they were seventy years of age. This does indicate a failure. because there are more than 4.000,000 people in our country who have never heard of truth. and yet they are more than sevent~ years of age. Even the one leader whose keynote of mentalized truth, 1s that there is no matter and no possible death to the p~VBieal body, died before she wa~ ninety years old.

This is neither criticism of individUAls, nor of truth! But it 16 honest recognition th~t we do not yet use the powers of the soul tha.t !uake the bodY' spirt tual enough to 1i ve as youthfully as many other forms of life! Man l s body dies - as en old body - even when young in years.

Some lower animals, even birds, live as long as man! .And some animals 1i ve t~ce e.s long! Any animal that can keep his body vital and healthy and active for 200 years possesses something which man has missed!

1l.ls shoc!dng that ~ really lives only until he is 21 01' 22 ,ears old; and then begins ~ylng and continues to slowly die, week ~ week.l, and aotually ends life here while yet young in leare~ Sinoe man'a soul is made in the image and likeness of God, and .ince God 18 eternal - forever living. never dying - it seems man should have accomplished more in making hie body responsive to spirt t, so that 1 t would live longer and more youthfully. It is 8trange that man still depends for life, on destructive energies. which tend to destroy his bo~. so that he dies young. But now that we have disoovered the brain of spirit, there is oertainty that you can awaken your bod7 to respond more fully to spir1 t and to the crea.tive powers of God, so that ;you may a.atually work a transformation of the body.

The degree ot ohange depends on t~ factors: (1) the power of the energy of the brain of s~lrit; and (2) the degree of responsiveness of your body tissues. f,he brain of spirit is deep within the suprarenal gland. Jhe suprarenal (adrenal) is the supreme endocrine gland. In making this stRtement. I do not discredit opinions of other soientists. although I seem to disagree with them.

Many endocrinologists assert that the pituitary endocrine 1s the master gland of all the endocrine system, because it can make the hormones of other glands, if they fail to do so. I do not oontrad1ct~ them, for I know this is true, - that Is.

5-23

that the pituitary is the master endocrine factory.

BUT all evidence proves that it is the suprarenal which IS 1he master BRAlN of the master FACTORY. The very substance of the brain of spirit in the adrenal 1s practically ~PIRIT 1t8elf~ It is no longer possible to draw a olean cut line, between matter and spiri t, but we can truly sa.y that some substances are not powerful, and that other substances are very powerful .

!.!

. ~lhen we say that a. substance is not powerful, we mean there NOT as much spiri t !It it as in other substanoes. -

When we sa,.v, another substance is the most powerful substance on earth - whether in or outs1 de 0 f man. in ai r or depths of the earth - we mean that that eubst@Jlce l§ so like spir! t, that 1tie practically spirit itself in manifestatlon~

The !!!l substanoe of the brain of spirit is so saturated with spirit ~hat it is practically spirit itself. It is the purest form of manifesting spiri' in matter - perhaps it is 1 part matter, and 999 parts spirit. From this brain of spirit, spirit itself can be radiated to cell of man' e body to transform every cell - to change man that his bodY shall live instead of die.

~very

&0

For this, there is 8 need of greater

reBponsivenes~

of bodZ.

Your bodv is no~ responsive to the destructive energiee - to light, Bound, electric ravs, ultra-violet, radium, et cetera. But all of them tend to destroy the body eo rapidly, that lOur bo~ begins to die Just about the time it ought to begin to live as an adultJ able to attain great things in life. There IS great need of the boQy becoming more respon8ive to the seven great powers of spirit - the constructive powers ~ich God himself used in creating the universe. And what .Q2 !

~, ~

- 'responsiveness'?

When I 883' that ma.tter is responsive, I lDesn that energy can flow through it, with little friction, so that the substance ls-not out, end the energy is not used Up 1n merely forcing its way through the matter.

worn

To illustrate the value of responsiveness, let me use an electric dynamo, a motor, and a wire connecting the two. The dynamo radiates 1000

~

of energy every minute.

5-24

To carI7 that energy from the dynamo to the motor, :you use a connecting wire. If you use a aea1-iron wire - which 1s flot responsive to electricity - to link up your dynamo to your motor. the wire itself will !!!! ~ ~ un! ts of the energz. -Then your motor will receive only This makes it a very weak motor ~ut

it

50 units of energy! a·tifTUreln~rre:

if you use copper wire - which!! responsive to electricity 2n!z ga units of the energy radiated by the dynamo.

~ ~

This leaves 920 un! ts Qf energy for you to ~. This gives you a very strong motor - a successful life. Soul is infinite, and there 1s ~ limit to its powers. So, if the bo~ were fully responsive, the energy of the bo~t would also be limitless. But an ~-respon8ive body u,es up so much energy, that your energy tor the activities of lif~ is greatlY reduoed. Tune-up the body so tha.t it is !!2!! responsi va to spi!'i t more reapon8i ve to your soul p~wer8 - and much more of the power of 70ur soul will manifest - not only in energy but in health and in vi tali ty and attainment and love and charm and friendship and abundance and spiritual illumination and realization!

The IOul i8 limitless; nothing can prevent its limitle8S expression, except an ~-respon8ive body'. Since we have now discovered the seven great eonstructlve powers of api r1 t - the ve!7 powers that are enduring and do not wear out structures through which they manifest - we should try to make the body responsive to them •. As your bod7 becomes more responsive, you will more fully express the divinity within TOU, . and realize that YOU!!! made in likeness of God - to live like a god on earth. But be very certain, my friend. that you can NOT increase such responsiveness, by any direct effort of the conscious mind Whether by affirmation or concentration or visualization. Mind al~B hinders expression of spirit; because the limitations of conscious mind can not remove their own limitations. If however. you rise to consciousness of the power of spirit, and make your bodY more responsive to spirit, then transformation 18 possible, and all the other things will be added unto you.

5-25

The soul experiences this freedom also in near-drowning. At such a moment the conscious mind unconsciously gives up its control, and the soul is free to live limitlessly. Hence at such a time, the soul experiences more in a minute, than it lives in a life time of conscious thought. I do not expect you to understand all this fully now. I write of this here, as a basis of future understanding. st~ this Lesson many times, as a basisL I all ask you' in succeeding Lessons, to make your body so responsive to spirit, that conscious mind shall ~ longer limit . your soul or bind your body - so that the Creative powers can transfonn your body and transfigure your soul, as you become more responsive to spirit.

COMMENT ON SLIGHTLY CHAlJGlID

N11J~3

Findiilg names for thing::3 nhich have never been known on earth, is one of'the most difficult problems'for the human mind. For example, I tried for thirteen years, to find n name to designate the work of ~ friend, Luther Burbank. But there is no English word, which defines his kind of work.

It has been very difficult to find English names for the Seven Creative Rays. The mystic names which I have had to translate, in" writing for you, are - shemayim, apheriam, caroceliam, annonilLn, godeshian, meolanian, and many others. . Sometimes three different names; are given to' the srume ray. These had never been translated into English, until I first wrote this course some years ago.

I All now changing my first English transla.tion a little bit, to makethe names simpler a.nd meanings clearer for you•

•

r

For example, what I- previously called the Conforming~Ray, I now call the Formin~ y ' because 'forming' 'is sufficient, as. tahe name of the power t a gives form to things. And what I previously ca!Ie'd the Purif~ I now call, Clarifying Rtf, - for it is the clearer meenmg 0 the power God used - symbo zed by making sun and moon - the light that mede it possible to clarify all thingi.

,y,

But no matter what little ch&lge I may make in names, each Ray remains the same, and its power remains the same.

6-29

The lack of result. has been due to the materialization of the high ideals of the true word, into crude Bounds which the ear can hear. The true word i 8 NEVER a word or a phrase, spoken aloud. ~ Spoken Word" IS Spiri t - a mighty si lent harmoni zing overtone of God pulsating THROUGH your body. Speaking it aloud wi th 70ur lips kills i to true powers.

In ancient texts. "spoken word" means the "HIGHEST POWER. ISSUING OUTu - issuing or radiating AS ~ POWER! Henoe, our use of 1 t as a truth spoken aloud by our human voice is a materialistic desecration of the real spoken word.

The TRUE 'spoken word' vibrates in silence! It UNIFIES you WITH the essence power of stars which issue out from God. --- It vibrates IN all things on earth, and IN all the eternal circling of stars; it TUNES-UP the bo~V. so that the body i teelt becomes more RESPONSIVE to spirit. It PENETRATES to every cell; reaches to ~rain of Spirt i. and trees the silent power of spirit. Please do not think that awakening the Brain of Spiri t is complex and difficult. It is VImY SIMPLE!

And the meana are SO s1lDJlle. that ~think1ng people often miss both the \mderatanding and the awakening. Only ~thlnk1ng people teaoh complex truth. That 1 B why they are always fal lures~ Tbinldng soule soon learn that basic truths are simple! So also, the SIMPLEST means are always the MOST EFFECTIVE. A great unout diamond may lie in a. gutter for a year; 1,000,000 people mar pass it by, missIng Its wealth. THEY think it 1s only a SI'fPLE pebble wi thout value. They are the ~-thinking people, who fail to realize the truth that the value wealth of a diamond resides in its quality, NOT 1n the complex! ty of facets out upon its surface.

In this course, I give you VERY SIMPLE means of awakening the Brain of Spirit, - so simple you ~ at first won~r how theT ~ produce the marvelously great results. These simple means produce results, beoause they UNIFY divine power WITH the silent power of movement; 1I1TH harmonious unheard tones; ~TH your deepest soul desire!

THE GREATER SPIRITUAL RESPONSIVENESS OF BOny AND A~iiAKENING

THE

BRAIl~

OF SPIRIT

by Brown Landone

MYSTERIOUS "LIKENESS" QE MOV»aNT - :BODY AND SPIRIT - - LESSON

~

In this V70rk you are a?7akening response to .!rpir.it ! Spirit 1s neither a stagnant nor Fl theoretical po~r. Spirit is the cosmic moving po~er of ALL the universe. Spirit 18 the ONE moving power of atoms and cells and stars. In all agee, savages as ~ell as ~vstics, have sensed the true nature of the movement of spirit. In our language today - and in all ancient V1I'i tinge - the ~rds tspirit' and 'spiral' come from the same basic word root. EVERY mystic uses these t~ words as the same. The truth that spirit means spiral, reveals the iAY in which spirit moves! I have taught you to tune-up the cells of your body by use of mystic overtones of silent sound; arid taught you to blend vibrations of substance and spirit in r~vthm to move~ent unified w1th the power of silent tone.

Now, I teach you the

~vement

of spirit - the holy spiral!

But please carry on this ~rk prayerfully and lovingly. Do NOT tr.y to secure quick results, either in awakening the Brain of Spirit, or securing spiritual responsiveness of bo~V. IF you should awaken the spirit brain instantly. its freed spirt t power would destroy your body. This is no mere scare line. - for even the pure SUBSTANCE of this brain has titanic power. If a physiCian were able to secure one drop of its pure substance, and inject it into your blood, its po~er would act like a bolt of lightning. rip all muscles from your bones, rip them into shreds, and make even your heart a mere mass of fringe. But do not worry about the possibility of this happening to you. If any physician ever obtains a drop of this pure substance, he will hire a body-guard to protect it. for it is worth many million dollars a drop - much more precious than radium.

Twelfth, stand before a mirror, and imagine yourself directing a stranger, how to reach a place he wishes to find. Tell him to dr~ve four blocks straight ahead, then three blocks to the right. Gesture with your arm as you give him these directions. Watch your movements in the mirror. You use yOU!' mind to direct the man, and to move your arm; hence it is mind which determines the kind of movement your arm makes at such a time. As you point the way the stranger should go, your arm tends to move in straight lines; even your fore-finger is straight as you point the directions. Thirteenth, movements as you Your little you. You emi Ie.

look in the mirror. grand-daughter comes into the room and rushes to and take her in your arms.

Every straif'bt ~ in your face, ohanges. Every line tends to be curved. You can not even smile in straight lines. NoV1 stand before the mirror, and imagine yourself trying to embrace someone lovingly, by moving your arms in straight lines on~. It is grotesque. burlesque!

Fourteenth. since love moves in WAVE lines, it makes your boay tend to move in curved movements. I use the phrase ntendu to move. because there are bones in your body. and no body movement can be a perfect curve or a complete spiral.

Fifteenth. love tends to make your bo~ movements ourved, and spirit tends to make them spiral movements. Sixteenth, even strong efficient physical power, tends to move in spirals, just as spiritual power does.

THE GREA.TER SFIRI TUAL RESPONSlVEliESS OF BODY

AND A:iAKENIHG THE BRAIN OF SFIRIT by Brown Landone

TRAINING MUSCLES TO SF I RAJ:, MOVEtffiNT - - - - - - - - - - LESSON XI

To realize the necessity of changing your bo~V. to an habitual tendency to spiral movement, stand before a mirror. and (1) Imagine that you are a very old man - so very stiffened that you can not even turn your head, except in st'raight line movements. (2) Imagine yourself to be a youth p181ing baseball or tennis (or watch a youth plqing such a game) and note bo~ many different twists there are in the movement of the boqy.

Old age 1s largely restriction to straight line movement. because as man restricts his bo~ to straight line movement, he ahuts off manifestation of spiritual power, and limits the bo¢y to pure mental effort to move. Moreover. if you watoh any 100 people, you find that ever,y movement which gives' charm and attractiveness and vltalltT to a personality, tends to be a spiral movement. But please, use common sense both in your ju~ent of what I mean by a spiral movemen t of the body t and as well a.s in your ~rk of oarrying out the activities suggested below. Use sense ~th spirit; never twist, or attempt any ~1ral movement ~tich does not appea.r to be graceful. and 1TfbiJh does not feel easy and powerful.

J.nything that looks grotesque in movement - a.s you watch yourself in a mirror - is evidence that you are oyer-doing the effort to awaken easy spiral movement. I suggest seven different activities to help you change your habitual tendency of movement. But first. I give you a basic spiral movement (BSM) that is the basis of each activity. one to seven. ,given below.

All rights reserved

11-48

The BSM is ~hi s.: Stand easily 'Vi th feet a 1i tt1e apat."t, and wi th your weight on one foot. Twist your body easily in a part spiral to the left; then ba.ck to front. -Then in a part spiral to the right, and back to the front. The above is the BSM, to which I refer below. And please remember - any twist of boqy suggested in this work, must not be grotesque, but ~asy and graceful. There are reasons for this training in spiral movement: (1) Each spiral movement gives you increased feeling of manifested power! (2) It lifts up the vibratory condition of your bo~V to be rea~y to resnond to suirit; (3) Since it is ~piral in movement, it turns your oonsciousness from feelings of weakness, to a certainty of power in action. The following are the seven spiral activities to use to change your body from its present habitual action, to more youthful, more inspiring, more powerful activity. These begin with slow and gentle twisting of to stronger and more viril spiral movement.

bo~y,

and proceed

FIRST. carry through BSM (see top of this page), and think of a vine climbing upward - reaching to spirit and to sunlight. During the BSM, either repeat or at least think, the thought of these lines: I thrill to the surge of As tendrils are thrilled I thrill to the surge of As tendrils are thrilled Sunrise. SUnrise! As tendrils are thrilled

SECOND,

the twisting of your body a little stronger now,

and think of another form of life - the wonderfull.y beautiful twisting of a young panther. Think only of the beauty of its movement - the grace, the ease,

the suppleness. Using BSM, twist your body ns a panther at play. and while doing this, think the thought that follows, or commit it to memor" and repeat it:

11-49

I twist myself slowly As lithe as a panther r-t~st ~yeelf slowly As lithe as a panther As lithe, as lithe! As lithe . as-a panther

and

FOURTH, use BSM. put your bo~V into position, to throl':' a ball as a baseball pitcher pitches a ball. Pull your arm behind you, and half twi at your bod7 to the rear. Then let your bo~y untwirl ae a spring untwirls, and throw the imaginary ball with a feeling of power! This helps to adjust every large muscle of your body to a spiral movement, and to make every cell of such muscles responsive to the movement of spirit power. FIFTH, now add though,t and feeli~ to the BSM of twisting to develop ~ tendency of such movement of your body.

SIXTH, use the :SSM no~', VTi th"a. consciousness of youth instead of "that of age. Imitate in your twisting, any activity you have seen, in the movement of a chilQp"at play or IJ. youth in games. Don't 'thinkt of being a ch~ld or a youth, but feel the spirit of the child or youth in you - expressing in movement Be the ohild or youth expresses the ppwer of life in them - the" newness of life. ftI

All these seven Actiyities do initiate a new tendenoy of spiral move~nt "Ii thin the body. 11-50

Do NOT try to make a whirling spiral of'your bodYl Instead, establish an habitU!l tendency"to spiral movement _ to free you from the dominant and habitual straight 11ne movement ~hich ages the cella, lessens free movement, and stiffens muscle action. This

brings

the spiral movement of youth!

The spiral movement is dominant in youth.

The straight line movement 1s dominant· in old age. The ancient mystics knew the power of the holy sniral. It affects every cell of your body. and prepa.res the bo9Z for' greater"· inf10'1'1 of spiri tual power. And spiri tual pO?1er is different from mind, greater than mind ~ower. . ' -

SEVENTH, think of the spiral movement as symbolj'of life: ever tending to spi ra.l up from ea.rth toward hea.ven. Using the BSi, respond to the feeling of ,life within you, moving upward througb your body, and outward through the fingers of your uplifted hands, using just such arm motion as you did when proclaiming the power of a great truth to an audienoe. Repeat sever,a.l tinies" spiralling a little faster each time, to break down the e tiffened stra.lght-lined, men tali zed, crystalli zed ol~aged cohdition of your body. . But please understand that none of these seven activities are evidence of spiri tual power in your body. .. These activities are given to train ~he muscles of the body~to a tendency of spiral movement, so that the bo~y ~~ll be fitted to respond to spirit, read1 for the power of spirit to move through it. Do thi 8 ,,,..ork, and you shall begin to !Danifeet ~piri t - the highest power of the universe, changing your body trom an ~ing structure', to one thrilled by youthful spiri t!

" A few souls in all ages have risen to this height! And now. thousands - because of our ne.". 1mo"/le~e - ~ charlge their bodies to granter manifestation of ~~irit in action, ~

I am praying, friend, that you shall be Qne of them. In the next Lesson, I teach you to unify the holy spiral of movement, WI1~ the mystic powers of silent tone, WITH the power of rhythm - F.l..l1d to blend all in the oneness of spirit.

THE GREATER SPIRI TUAL RESPONSIVENESS OF BODY

AND AWAKENING THE BRAIU OF SPIRIT by

Brown Landone

THE RHYTHMIC HULTIPLYING PO';,'ER ------. -

- - - - - - - - - - - LESSON XII

The strangest thing in life to me 1s our stupidity! We fail for years t to recogni ze the great astounding means of powers all around us all the time - e'er waiting to be used. You know rhythm has power· - just a few minutes of flowing· RHYTHMIC musia whioh TOU like - IS a rest. And no matter how fatigued you are, 70U can oft dance for an hour to RHYTHMIC music, and be rested by it.

We ha.ve known. this truth for centuries. and ;yet we have not recognized that rhythm IS ~ power of God - an operative power to be USED to multiply our energy 100 fold!

You also know your lit~le heart does work each hour, whioh would exhaust 4 husky men, each weighing 175 pounds. It is strange that a RHYTHMIC ~ can perform such a miracle! We kno'!' gigantic stars have circled on for eons of time! them RHYTHMI CALLYi we know that thei r t1 tanic energies~ are TIRELESS for many billion years. ·ile know God moves

\1e know that jerking movements exhaust us, and rhythm rests us! We know we can dance to rhythm Without fatigue; but that JERKING the same muscles about spasmodically for the same length of time, would nervously exhaust us.

We know that RHYTHMIC music in Cigar factories INCREASES pro-

duction more than 300~ - increasing energy of workers. three times! But have you thought of using rhythm, to increa.se your energy 3001, every hour? We know that engineers found that husky steel plant workers were exhausted from carrying 12i tons of pig iron a day. And that the same men - when taught to move rhy'thmically carried 47t tons a daY ~th LESS fatigue!

We have been stupid, in not rea.lizing that rhythm - which gives your heart the power of four hU8~ men - IS a power! All rights reserved

12-52

Think of your little heart, and the SECRET of its amazing energy. There 1s NOTHING extraordinary about its muscle fibers or its nerves. Yet its power transcends anything purely muscular or physical It weighs about 12 ounces; Yet each hour, it does work enough to lift 2.1 TONS of concrete one foot off the groundt ' It works every hour. day and night, for sixty or a hundred years!

\1ha.t ARE the TViO secrete of its power? (1) your tmind t almost completely lets it alone; (2) 1 ts RHYTHM nears PERFECTIOH! It makes us ashamed, that we have been so stupid, that we have not recognized that rhythm IS a POWER to be USED. Rhythm is one of the grea.t Ql?erati ve soul powers. It baniahes fatigue; and multiplies power a 1000 times! Think of your heart. and then vi sion what rhythm can do for all your body - increasing energy many times, and transforming the acti vi ties of every organ of your body!

Rhythm possesses its titanic power, because it is of spirit. Spirit itself 1 s RBYTIDvtIC! . If Spirit were not rhythmic. it would have caused so much friction, that it would have disrupted the universe eons ago! Since Spirit IS rhythmic. you cannot greatly increase your response to spirit, unless your bo~y is made more rhythmic.

bo~y's

NO.

I do NOT mean that you must dance rhythmic dances; or fre-

quentlv skip a.bout on toe-tips - waving lOur arms!

BUT I 00 mean that your body will NOT respond to Spiri t in its fullne;&, -UNLESS 1 t moves wi th an INNER rhythm, from the Boles of your feet to top of head and tips of fingers! The phenomenal power of rhythm is proven to be titanic even in ordinary work. Remember the husky steel workers. To attain the greater MANIFESTATION of spirit you desire. you must tune-up your body to rhythmic movement.

Energy is energy; and energy in rhythmic action is tireless! Rhythm in action is. the IIlost chord", of our use of our powersl Most people, as you know, ~ ~ "lots of energy" wi thout attaining great resul tSt because they 1e.ck the power of rhythm, and try to live contrary to the spirit power of the universe! UNIFY your desire.with movement, with silent tone, and with rhythm, and you att~in the perfect ONENESS of power.

I wish you now to feel, and strongly feel the rhythmic beat of marching men!

by Brown Landone THE PO~ OF THE HOLY JJNITY-IN-USE - - - - - - - - - LESSON XIII

I wri te thi s Lesson that you shall not th!Yl~ too much of the information 6iven. but feel more - to get into ~he feeling of spirit - to b~ more readv to respond to spirit. Uhen you study the Use of each power separately, it leads to much t1:.inkins and thought of mind.

But unity-in-use leads to a feeling of inspiring attainment, because as soon as they are in use, you have a feeling of ~ something, and do not think so much about them. It is like learning a. new dance step. You think of its separate movements uhile learning; then stop thinking, and lose yourself 1n the joy of the musio, and the movement. and the rhythm. So in this, I lead you to unity-in-use. for joy in use. This unity-1n.use is the only means of attaining act~! oneness of powers which makes you God-like, so that there shall be no failure in your efforts to attain whatsoever you desire. Such oneness is a spiritual blend of all soul powers - of all CONCEPTIVE powers of ~t love. life and spirit; blended ~th use of all the OPERA~ING powers of the mystic unheard overtones. the silent spok~n ?Ord. the holy spiral of spirit, and r~thm that multiplies thp power of all.

RESPONSE - - ,- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - LlSSOR XV

This Lesson XV is the first Lesson of Part II of this Oourae. It io entitled The New Response! , By this title, I mean: (1) spiritual responso; and (2) response that 1s new in your life! New to evel7 cell of your ~, as well as to TOur OO~l In tbe past, you have probably thought of spiritual re8poneivenesp of motives, desires. and ideals of the mind. But I teach fOU the BASES of ALL rel1X?nle. I teach you the spiritual responle ot ~ ~ itself - ot its very tissues, and particularli of 1ts activities! And that

~ the, acti vi tl ~t the MUSCLIS! You will never attain the highest degrees ot spiritual consciousness until you lift up your mind to recognise ,that the cella and t1 slues are Just as d1 vine as the most 1deal , thought 10m: mind can oonceive, --for God created all things!

Moreover, there is NO way on earth by which your soul express' anything. EXCEPT through 'lOur muscles.

CaJ).

There i, NO expression possible. except ~ mo"ement of the large musoles of your body,_ or movement' of small muscleo for facial expression; or expression by the words and tonea you use. And you can not speak one word, or utter one tone except ~ muscle action - ot chest walls, cheeks and lips and tongue. There can.not even be's gleam in your eyes. !xoept little tiny muscles ohange the ',thickness of the lensos of your eTes. Read tho above. if necessar,y. a hundred times. I mean it, a hundred times - once 'a ~ for three months! That ma7 not be too much, to open your mind to the great illumination - that ALL expresDion of soul d!penda ~ your muscles! -And all expression increases in power~ as you tUD~UP the musoles to sp1ri t. Thus only, you attain godhood in action!

Expression of spirit 1s THE highest attainment in this llfe; 1 t is manifss,ting as God intended you to manifest in hie llkene82t And ~ when bo~ tissues are responsive enough to reoeive infinite energy. can spirit manifest freely and fully. All rights reserved

Certainly you now recognize that YOU ARE a radiation of the d1 vine rays of the universe - of the ma.rvelous powera that are forever construct! ve - the very powers which God himself used during the seven days of creation when he created all things which ~ existed for hundreds of millions and even billions of l eare.

And that which baa continued for billions of 78ars must be right. for evil alw818 destroys itself, and all it creates! Henee the seven creative powers of God - manite.ti~ IN man MUST be the very Qonstruc ti ve essence of God himself. Manifesting these powers 1s different from merely 'thinking' Thi B differs from afflrming or deolaring it. or med! tating about 1 t.

the thought that you are made 1n the likeness of God!

i teach manifestation, NOT thOughts 'about t manite.tation! And these Lessons teach you. the EASY approach to becoming ~

responsive to these spir1tual powers - by the 8implest and

moet effeotive means you oan use in this life on earth. you ~ 'enter the'Temple of Transformation.

10

that

C08~~C energr CAN penetrate your bo~, 10 that you feel the thrill 'of 1 t. I"F your con8c1ou8 mind does not block 1 t.

So I a,k 1d~. to think y LITTLE ABOUT thi s !Ork 88 po.sible. That. 1 •• ·t~nk JU8t enough to get the information neoessarr. to tell .you .what to do. Then LtVE in response to the urge of spirt t -

to carry out the exercises that may be given - NOT as exercises, but ot easy response of ~ - free expresSIOn of the soul!

~s means

Scm.e Lessons will be long; other Le8sons will be short. Each WILL contain ALL -- that it 1s essential for you to know in order that 70U m&7 learn to respond to the'fullest degree possible.

--

Infinite spirit forever surrounds 70U, and from it you recelv. all the enerD you Clan ever manifest on this earth! . And Bpi ri tIS the source of everything you can ever attain on this earth.or manifest in

heaven~

The meaning of spirit 1s the essence of all power. For example, the light you !!! on earth - that 18, light of the sun, NEVER cOile s from. the sun. as li gh t ! Instead, 1 t is the spiri~ of light which radiates from the eun - it is pure 1igh t· - light that ill NEVER seen by the human eye the perfeot light of God. The I sunlight' whioh 70U do .!!! on earth 18 NOT pure light! In actual fact. it is nothing but the FRIOTION that is created

There is proof: when scientists rise high in ~. balloon. even at midday, it is almost dark in the upper atmo3Jhere~ There is very little crude light up there. beoause there is very little air up there, and hence little friction. And when man mounts still higber, there 1s absolute darkness. That is, what we call' sunlight1 is crude frictl,on of true bla.ck light, passing through air! And since air doeanot exist out in space, there is no light out there. which the .1;Y9 can 8ee~ There !! only the pure UNSEEN light of ~! So I. make a real di stlnction. botween this crude light on ' earth, and the spirit flof" l1ght whiob is the essence! of light the holy unseen light - light such as God knows.

There i e also a spiri tual essence

"of"

x-rays and of ultra

violet raySt and of all radiant rays. All.!! know i)f them on earth, is the crude friotion - due to, pure rays trying \.0 plow.

either through air or more solid Bubstanoes here on earth. Likewise, I make a distinotion between 'mind' as manifested on earth. and the spirit 'OF' mind. All those who dwell in mind, dwell in the realms of thoughts. and thoughts are forever cha.n&ing and forever dyingt tlNot by might - but by my spiri t, It aai th the Lord of Hosts; and the Hebrew VJOrd translated might means strength ot mind!

by man

At this point. I caution you again, against trying t~ or mentallze - and thus kill - the essence of this work!

cla8sif~

A few months ago, I received an outline, made b7 a student an outline of two lessons of this Course. This woman wrote that she was re-wrl ting thi s course, so it would be "RIGHT". She said she had cla.ssified and numbered the exercises, eo she could do all of them - efficiently, practioally in only eleven minutes each ~! In essence, what this woman says, 18 this: "I have classified and numbered expressions of !2.!,!, so that I can get all exprels10n of my love for my loved ones, out of the way in eleven minutes each deJ. and thus my life becomes efflbient and practical. ~nat she oalle 'praotical 9 , is killing the aplr1t of love; killing the response of mind and body to spirt t, and SUBSTITUTING mere thoughts of mind. ~R the love and life of spirit!

Assume that you a.re a young sweetheart, and that your lover comes home, after two years across the sea in mi11~&ry ~erv1ce.

15-66

He enters your home, and as you walk toward the door to greet him, you stop half way, and B~Y, "John. since you've been a:"a,y, I've worked out very effic1en t and practical means of expression our love. "I have scheduled a plan for our manifestation of it~ "\1e will take exactly of a second for' one kiss; no more! ItThen t of a. second for an embrace; after which we will Bi t on the sofa and hold hands for 2 min~tes and 10 seconds."

t

I do not need to explain; you know that any su(.h attempt. will first dampen response to your love; then freeze it; then kill it! Mentalization of expressing love. can cQmpletely kill the love. within ~ month! So also with expressions of spirit!

IF th1 s woman has "worked out" response to spir1 t. just right; then it's not \~rth teaching; certainly not worth living it! So I about the Give Then

Keep

caution you, my friend. Think just as LITTLE as possible. information of these LeBson8~ only enough thought to them. to know what TOU should do. forget the thought, and live the love and life of sp1ritt alw~s

these two truths in mind, my friend:

First, life and love and spirit ~ completely different from the much lesser powers of the thoughts of conscious mind; Second, conscious mind is a mechanized skeleton in activity an actual hindrance 1n manifesting life and love and spin t. You know thi s is true - for you know that nO,thing has ever interferred so much with the full and free expression of your life, as the 'thoughts' of conscious mind which have forev~r been saying you can't do this, you can't do that •. you haven't the strength to do this, or what will people ss-v if TOU do that! All hindr~oes to response to spiri t ~ due (1) to thoughts of conscious mind, or (2) such, slo~ of ~ vibration that i ts tissues do not f~ respond !2 spirit. ..

IN-SPIRING MATTER WITH SPIRIT .- - -

The ~ reapona8 of the bOQr to apirit. starts with something whioh m.v perhaps surprise you. It wst begin wi th the ~ by wh!ch the spin tual enerQ' ot the infinite enter! the bod.v'.

There are grea.t dynamos of spirit power in 70ur boq - within your actual p~81cal bod;r. There are great motors of tremendoua power in TOur bocJ3r. But the energy which they radiate - the energy that flo'"

From the word spirit. we derive our word - In-spiratlon! Inspiration is t~e act of ~-Bplralllng energy; that ie, the actin tl' of energy spi railing 1tself' into 70ur bo4l't .

It 1s impossible to find any illustration that is fully true. for the soul 1s leeater than anything else man know. on earth. and the human bocl1' i8 the most marvelous organic mechanism of all God'. creations' Hence there is nothing to wbich soul and bocb' can be ~ oompared! Soul and bod,y tranlcend all other things on earth. and nothing completely illustrates that Which takes place, when infinite api ri t wh1 cb surrounds 70U, flows in to 'and through your boq. But 1n some factorl, oomparlsons are true: Great generators in a power house oan generate ~ electrlcl·ty. unless there i . electronic energy flowing to them from all the universe. Such energy surrounds eve!7 power bouse. penetrates 1 t. and tll1. every inoh of apace in and around eve17 maohine! It 18 the eleotronio energy of the unlverae th£!\.t makes it possible to I~8pire energy into the generators. so that, when they operate, they oan radiate electricity out along wires.

So alao, .ALL the ·power tbat radiates from 70\lr aoul - or in through your body - la:tiret in--spired n!m the etructure of TOur body. by ini1ni te energy whioh forever surround. you.

and

And in proportion. as you increase responsiveness of tissues All rights reserved

of your body - lift them up to respond more fully to the higher vibrating energies of the universe - in that degree, will you manifest more spiritual energy in every activity of life o In beginning this ~ response, let me again emphasize that power first comes to you FROM OUTSIDE your boqyl' It is in-spired into the structure of your body, either to be used at once, or e~stored up as titanic power to be released later and radiated out into manifestation. ~

BUT

~

does this energy in-spire into your body1

What is the MF.J.NS used? The means Imlst be some part of your body, whose cells are more sensitively responsive to spiritual energy and all higner energies of the universe, than any other cells of your body. To this time, you have thought of your ears as miraculou8 receptors, because' they are able to receive VIbrations of tones, vibrating up to 24,000 times a second' It .!2 marvelous that nerves of the ear can respond, so amazingly to such high overtones of sound! Also'your eye seems to be the most amazing organism ever developed, It is a camera that adjusts its own lenses to different amounts of light. Then its retina adjusts its nerves instantly to different lengths of light vibrationsl Some of the little nerve cells of the rods and cooes of the retina of your eye, can' receive vibrations that range from 400trillion times a second, up to 700 trillion a secondL That-ri,from lowest reds to highest violets the human eye can seel It is marvelous - the delicate responsiveness of the nerve cells-of-rhe rods and cones of the retina of the eyel M, the nerves of the ear and the nerves of the eye can lli2! equal another tissue of your body in responsiveness. nIT" is the most receptive organ of all your bodyL Some physiologists now call it the mirror of the soul.

And what is it of which I am writing:

II ~

your SKIN - the most ndraculous. organ of your bodyl

It is different from all other organs. It is a physical lody El itself. It is composed of cells that are the opposite of the cells of all other organs of your body.

water.

BUT if skin cells are put in water, they die. And if they are put in darkness, they die.

11 1s yo~ spiritually responsive~! It is your skin. composed of cells whioh MUST have light and air, a.lthough all cells of the inner body die if exposed to light or air, even for a second! Cells of skin originate from the same kind of oel1s as glandst The.,l §.re the MI HAOLE cells of the ~. One physiologist even calls the skin the 'miracle organ' of the bo~.

do cells of the brain and nerves and endocrine

The skin is the in-spiring organ - the ~ organ that can take-in the energies of God, 80 that they can be embodied in the brain-dynamos. and then radiated to all parte of your body! In lOur sld.n alone, there!.!:! tv«) billion "RECEIVING SETsn! If this seems strangelY impossible to TOU - that is, that there are billions of reoeiving sete 1n 70ur akin which 'reoeive power' from the universe, realize that scientific engineering haa already developed power sending and receiving apparatus here on earth, for use in a practical mec~ioal engineering ~. Towers oan be built to send out PQwer. just as we have towers that broadcast radio waves whieh are carried to your radio eet and turned into Bound. It IS possible to build towers that radiate power. so that i t you are within 500 miles, with an automobile with a 'power-receiving set', you can tune in to that tower of wireless power, and Teceive power for the engine of your 08.r - sufficient to run it anywhere wi thin a radius of 500 milee. And of oourse thi s radiance of power may - in a few )pears - be 80 improved that it oan be used anywhere Wi thin a thousand mile. or i i ve thousand mi Ie rad1 us 0 f Buch a tower! I cite this only to

ill~trate

four great truths:

(1) ell. great power first exists outside of the structure; (2) it 1s inspired or taken into the structure; (3) it can be inspired or taken-in only if the structure i8 responsive to the power; and (4) the degree of power taken-in depende on the degree of responsiveness of the struoture of your bo~.

To reoei ve such pow~'rt YO\1£ physical !truoture must be TUNEDmus~ be RESPONSIVE to it!

IN to it -

16-71

AND YOU :- 'in this most marvelous organ of your body - YOUR akin - have mare .th~ two billion RECEI VING sets. CAPABLE of reoeiving the highest po~ers of the universe. The receiving sets in ever,y area of your skin are infinitely MORE responsive to higher energies than the nerves of your ear. or even those marvelously delicate nerves of the retina of the eye. The PROOF that !1!.! skin is MORE RESPONSIVE, 1 B the fact that it DOES respond to much higher powers than eye or ear. Your eye oan not perceive x-rays, yet your skin can respond to them and in-spire them into 70ur bo~. even all through your bo~ except through your bones. And nerves of the eyes are eo dull compared to skin cello that they oan not receive ultr~vlo1et light. :But skin cells are ~ responsive to spirit that they CAN receive ultra-violet rays, and transmit them to all inner organs. In preparing for this new response to spirit - this response of your ~ to spirit - olearly vision the truth that yOU7 skin IS the ONE most miraculous organ of your entire bo¢y.

~

Look at it in a new way - reverence it. for it is the bridge between all that 1 s manifesting as you, and all that is not TOu! It is the receiving inspiring organ of inoarnating spiri t! It 1s the bridge between the infinite power that surrounds you, and the energy of all the inner structure of lOur bodT. There are SOO,OOO billion oells in your bo~. That number may not mean much in words. sO I put them in figures - 800.000,000,000.000 cells. - that is, l4oo,ooo times as many as all the people on earth! Each cell is a. LIVING INDIVIDUAL!. And the vory life of each one - the vitality-of each one, its every impulse to act and move o to live and love. and to respond to spirit - depend on bow much energy is in-spired into yOUI' 8kin bF 1l)ur s1d.na and then Qaftied into your inner bod1. So look upon every skin cell a& an angel IroQ Ood - all· angel to take-in the powers of God, and tranemi t them to all the body.

This is the very basis of the ~ response to the Phlsioal structure of l.Q.ur bo.~ to the inf1nl te ~_rgieB of God. The skin 1s M~~§ of the inepira~ion of matter and the inspiration of matter with spirit.

~

spirit.

16-72

The vibration of matter must be tuned-up to that of spirit, otherwise the matter is destroyed by spirit entering it. ONLY as the rate of vibration of matter approachee that of spi ri t, can api ri t flow in to it. in 1 ts infini ty. It ia this full IN-flow of spirit which lifts you to living in the image and like to the likeneas of God. If I have not previously written of this 1likeness'. I write of it now, so you will understand what we mean when we acoept God'. statement that he made man in bis own image and likeness. The Hebrew language is confusing to those who know only the English. It differs greatly from our English language. Often it uses the same root word, to form the noun and adjeotive and verb and adverb - all in one sentence. It does this often, for powerful emphasis~ For example. consider a Hebrew word, like - ~! In using thie word. e.n anoient writer might have written. "The player plqed the play playfully." Thia i a what wa.a done in the original Hebrew sentence. that is transla.ted - "God made man 1n his own image and likeness."

Root words of similar meaning are used && the basis of the words translated made. ~, ~. a~d likene.at

The meaning g1.

1.1CTIVITY'.

SO the full meaning of this great truth 18 this! God. the infinite activity. activated the activity called man. b7 bis own activity to be like unto God's own activity. It is IN activ1tl. that man is like God! And since the meaning is repeated four times - in made, own, image and likeness - realize the great emphasis God &!!! to !M.!\ truth, to help you to comprehend it in its f~l significance! It is response TO this activi ty whioh guarantees attainment of all that is worthwhile in earth and in heaven. Thl a is the ul tima te at ta.inmen t desl red of the new responsiveness - greater activity by means of spiritual response, 80 that the body may become more like spirit, and manifest spirit more fully and more completely, like unto a god on earth. Now, in the next Two L-!3ssons, prepa.re the skin as a mystic organ, for higher resPQnse to spirit. to inspire more of spirit!

It FLOODS the universe - including YOU - with titanic

energy~

Moreover, spirit is rea41 to thrill your bo~ - Y8S, even your PhYsical body - with such a flood of energy, that ill health and fatigue and weaknesses of old age will be impossible! Spirit is ready to contact you intimately and continuously. I know your earneatness - hoping, prqing, tI7ing again. And Tet, although you BAVE for years. and fei thfully - atill, mind and bo~ are NOT YET tully responsive to spirit. Yes, even after the years, there!:!:! lacks - l'our body' 1s NOT yet vitalized; it is not yet fully in-spired by spirit; there IS lack of that "abundanoe; and there is lack of full Joy; and lack ot constant contact and communion wi th the all knowing spiri t.

I am not criticizing! But my heart feels for your efforts. which up to this time have not yet been fully fulfilled! So I wish to help you discover the ~ of the failure of your efforts, eo you shall a.ttain response, so the lacks will disappear. The cause is this: in the past, no matter how consecrated lOU have been. your mind has tended to move in one direction, while spirit 1s AL~AYS ~!~ in the OPPOSITE PIRECTION! Spiri t is always radiating outward - ever OUTWARD! .And all spirit 1s alw~s IN-SPIRING itself into whatever responds to lt~ Think clearly! All rights reserved

perceptions. and take them back in to its self. Instead of radi~ting outward as spirit does, mind i8 seeking to take-in information ~~ within itself.

al~8

Even in meditation. mind tends to look with1n the self to find poWer, instead of recognizing that supreme power 1s outside the soul, and available for use ~ when inspired into the self.

so when you use mind too much - even when you think too much of what you are doing in thi s ?fOrk - you use the power of mind. which works 1n the oppoai te direction to that of spirit, - for spiri t is radiance from God - the OUT moving· power of God!

so with mind alwqs tending to pull ideas TO itself. and spiri t radiating OUTWARD, ~ IS subconscious CONFLICT. Oh, see the significanoe of thi s! I t explains WHY you have failed, even when trying earnestly, to attain your desires! So, 1 FIRST teach you to be an "aspiring seeker and adjuster", to atop thinking enough. 80 that you oan respond enough to spiri t, 80 that .spirit can in-spire itself into your mind and boQ.V. without inapiration all effort" ends in disapPointment. . ~ response to the d.1 vine IN-SPIRING RAY brings heaven to earth; it brings the divine energiea of heaven into YO~ desires and into the earth of actualities for you, even into your ~! The Inspiring Ra,v is the first RAY used by God in ~reatlon . . Respond to it. and you create 88 God oreates~ Respond to it. and for the first time. you will begin to unity bo~ and mind and spiri t to move together in the same W&7 at the same time - with power of unity you have never known before. Then llls of body and lack of energy disa.ppeart Fallures turn to success! Feelings of being separated from ·i, and from those whom you love, vanish. I teach you to RESPOND to spir! t, and to 1 ts SEVEN Sacred Razs of Creations! These rays are called the Elohim RaY;:-

The word ~ is now used by scientists to designate each distinct group of radiant energies. The word Elohim - you will remember - is the Hebrew word in the first chapter of our Bible which is translated God. Eut its ending tim' in the Hebrew, means that it is plural; hence it should be truly translated "God's powersu. There are seven of these creat1 ve powers - seven holy Elohim rays of God. The Elohim ~s are much higher than any radiant energy yet known to scientists - vibrating far above septillions times per second

17-75

Each ray has a particular vibration of its OWO, AND wheneTer it vibrates THROUGH any. substance, it produces a pa.rticular RESULT of i te own IN that particular substance. That IS creation! Even common earth r~ys possess this transforming power! The common HEAT ra::r. for example, has such power. You've seen it work; a chunk-or-hard butter 1n the presence of heat rays 800n CHANGES ita FORM. and becomes just melted yellow grease. 0

Sound is also a very common ray - so common you do not realize that it also has transforming power. But sprinkle a thin layer of sand on a tin platter, and tap the edge to produce sound, so the sound r~8 make the platter ring, and the lqer of sand I S transformed. It forms beautiful designs - circles, squares. diamonds, stars! BUT ELOHIM RAYS have p0W!~ t MILLION'S OF TIMES GREATER than any of the ordinary rays known on earth!

I have already stated that the main caU6e of your LACK of attainment, 1s the INNER CONFLICT between your MIND and SPIRIT. Of oourse, you may not consciously know of this conflict. for mental mind seldom knows the mystic workings of spirit. But certainly. you DO know that TOur body 1 B ~ yet CO~-STANTLY THItILLED wi th the power of spiri tot and you do know that your COIQ!Dunion V"ith spirit, is not yet CONSCIOUSLY CONTINUOUS.

Conflict is NOT in ideals, but in OPPOSITION of AOTIVITY" Your mind tries to make the powers of your soul move one way inward; while spi ri t moves in the OPPOSI TE way - outward! But when mind and spir1 t 1\'Ork TOGITHER, reaul ts are as CERTAIN as God, and as wonderful 8.8 miracles! Since it is mind that is to blame, there is but one way ot this conflict. It must ADJUST its old ideas. This is attained, only when you make the activity of both 70ur i'llind and bo~ LIKE unto the actlvi ty of spiri t. Then you respond to the divinely Inspiring Ray of God. ~olving

To help you in this, learn the NATURE of spirit's ACTIVITY, First, spirit is NEVER passive, but always infinite!y ACTIVE! Second, spirit NEVER turns inward on itself! These two truths are known to all scientists, and to many spir1tual thinkers; and hundreds of books teach them! Yet few students use them; and most teacherB urge you to dwell in attitudes which oppose spirit - to be passive instead of active;

to look wi thin, instead of looking outward tor inspiration.

THE GREATER SPIRITUAL RESPONSIVENESS OF BODY AND

AWAKEtlING THE BRAIN OF SFI RI T by Brown Landone

GREAT PEACE-MAKER and INSPIRATION O'F .POWER - - - - - - LESOOI XVIII

When the aotivities of your bod7 and mind and heart and spirit are at peace - that is when their aotivities work TOGETHER - then your desires become holy aotualities. This bringe us to another factor in maldng pea.ce wi th spiri t.

To be responsive to spirit and oreate With absolute certainty of results, you MUST use the SAME powers whioh God un81. And 1n the same order - one after the other.

'God needed ~ ~ for creation. each ~ to oreate a DIFFERENT result, and with divine certainty. because use of a different power must produoe a different result. The seoret of this great hidden ~8ter1. resides in what I taught you in the preceding lesson, or the meaning of the word tranalated 'God t in the first chapter of Genesis! Remember it is ELOH-IM; and the '1m' at the en~ 18 the Hebrew 81gn of pluralIty. - just as 1st is a plural fo~ in English, wbloh tells U8 that the word boys, means more than one bOT. Ilohim means the SEV1!N holT lmpra.gnat1ng POWERS of God! WITHOUT USE of these powers even Godls own conceptions of creation were without form and void, - see Genesis 1:2. "In the be,inning God created the heaven and the earth. and THE EARTH !!!:! wl thout form and ,void." Ien't that exactly what has happened to thousands of creation. ;you have concel ved in your own mind? You have created them in the heaven of mind. but as actual manifestations on earth, they have remained 'formless a~d void'. Many teachers of the las t 90 years have IUS taken 11' taught that all you have to do to create what you want. is to hold a tbol)€ht of 1 t in mind. They however do not know the process of God's oreation! They fall to realize that even God's mind creation of earth WAS VOID, until he used other powerst Let us repeat: "In the beginning. God created the heaven and All rights reserved

18-78

earth, and THE EARTH !!! wi tbout form and void. " That is, the actual manifestations was empty (voi d), and bad !!2. actual form! So also, our creations in mere thought, have in 99 caees out of 100 - remained IN consciousness, FORMLESS and VOID - never ooming into actual manifestation! That is why I give you this work of the use of the Seven Creating powers of God - THE powers which God used to turn the formlessness and emptiness of thought, into actualities! It was only when God used tbese seven powers, that he created the ACTUALITIES OF creation. Read Genesis 1:7-2:3. You also, in the past, have created many desires and ideals which have never taken form and become actualities. EUT NOW, with your use of seven powers of God, your desires and ideals CAN become actualities - just as God l s did. These powers are the SEVEN sacred rays which God used in ALL his creation, and they were first symbolized by the Seven ~Y8 or processes of creation. ThroU8b the agee m.Ystic men have tried to lift mankind toward manifeated perfeotion, by use of EACH raJ predominatelY tor thousands of years at a time! This has alrea~ oreated six great civililatlons of the paat. EACH with at least One Great Temple as the symbol of the spiritual urge of its own civilization. Now we are in the seventh oivllisation. These seven powers of creations - creating actualities - are: The First 1a the Great IN-SPIRING ~ or power of spiri t - the -let there be ~n of the third verae of our Bible. Ray

The Second great power is the EXPANDING BIq - the Oura.nian as Jesus called 1 t - the Heaven from Wi thin. Third. the great :roRMING Ray.

18-79

These lessons teach you responsiveness TO these !!l!. In THIS Lesson, I teach you of the Great I~SPIRING ray! Such response can come only from an attitude of opennes8 of the BOul - free from restricti~e thoUghts of mind, 80 that the soul is open for the inflow of spirit, for inspiration. The use of the in-spiring po'trer of the first great ra:y of area.tion is proclaimed by - "LET !!lill. be LIGHT. n

But it is certain that this 'light', is not the light seen we oall light not created until the fourth day of creation. It was then, that symbols of the sun and moon were created - oreation of light which we oall light - seen by the human eye.

by the human eye, because what

was

The ~ord t light' in the phrase - "let there be lightll literally means, - "Let there be a SPREAD of spirit fire." This means, a SPRE1DING or radiation of spirit, moving out into all things. and oonseouently IN-spiring itself into them! This is closely linked up with the use of the Second Great that of Expansion - because when spiri t moves into anything, it expands it into new activity and new attainment.

Ray -

Now return to a truth I taught 10u in a preceding Lesson that the pb;1sieal means by whiah all energies which manifest in your body and in 70ur brain structure,. are received!

Preparation for response to this Inspiring Ray, is simple. But do no t try to do it. by t thoU&ht' of mind. Remember that mind always tends to take things to itself, to store them up within its own consoiousness. That is, mind never gives attention to anything, except to perceive something it wishes to take into its own thought •• No one would ever 8 tudy anything, except mind wi shes to gain information to take into its conscloulueas. Mind is self-ish. grasping ideas to enrich itself. Hence mind has beoome a ruthless dictator, interferrlng With the manifestation of love, and even of spirit itaelf. Jut Iplrlt is radiant, flOwing out, always. to inspire it8elf into something elBe, al~Y8 to uplift that something elee! You want spiri t to FLO', into lOur ~ and THROUGH 1 t! Remember clearlY'. that ALL in-ep1:ration of power into your phwyslcal structure, comes through the skin. . The skin possesses the only cells which are tuned to vibration high enough to respond to infinite energy. lS-SO

Moreover, in its very struature. it has over two billion !:.eceivi~ sets. which can and do receive the infinite energies of the universe - the energies of God. 'power'

Even physiologists now call it, the 'miracle' organ, and write of its ~stic aotivity! YET YOU give it very 1i ttle chance to inap!re the d1 vine energies of the universe! In fa.ot. TOu usually actually HINDER its act! vi ty for 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59' seconds every day. So at least for seven minutes each morning and night, alone by youreelf, give the cells of, your skin, freedom!

Remember aleo that your skin {lella are DI1FER~ from all other cells of your bo~y. In origin they ARE like brain celIe! But functionally, they DIFFER from ALL other cells. ALL -8k1n cells MUST have --LIGHT AND 11 ve! -.. - ----- -- -AIR, -to --In oontrast, ALL cells INSIDE your bO~YI DIE the moment they are exposed to light or air; and this is true of ALL cells of all the INNER organs and ti ssues of your body. This is why - in growing heart tissues cells outside the bo~ as Dr Oarrel does - the labora.tory room must be dark, and labora.tory assistants dress in BLACK gowns! -The ONE grea.t life-need of SKIN oe1ls 1s AIR. and MORE AIR!

Most benefits 'supposedlvt due to sunlight. are due to air. Only a little sunlight is beneficial! More than a little IS deadly detrimental. nature lOlow more than faddists do. If you expose your boQy to just a little too much sunlight. divine intelligence knows it is so very detrimenbal. that nature blisters your skin to make you keep out of the sunlight; OR it builds up a dark ourtain of tan below the outer akin to keep out the light. God and

But skin cells need air and MORE air, and STILL more AIR! AIR is the G~T ACTIVATOR of all BILLIONS OF skin cells. They MUST HAVE AIR TO LIVE! Yet, yOu do NOT give them EVEN a l~ nor,mal chance to live! Your body livee 1,440 minutes every day! 14 minutes is only l~ of the 1440 minutes of the ~y. But you do not give your akin cells a chance to live in DIRECT CONTACT with air, even for 14 minutes each ~! 18-81

Will a plant grow well, if gi~en onlY l~ of the air it neede? Allllfe breathes to live. Even an apple in the oellar breathes. And a tree breathes. It even perspires - about 400 quarts of water on a hot day. But what would happen ~ if you kept its leaves swathed in olothes? Even to live, your skin cells must have MOVING air! Yet you deprive them of it, 99~ of the time! Thi sis a great physiologioal CRIME of this ~e! The activ1ty of the skin IS mystical and mi,ht)"!

It affects even the inner bo~. The bo4Y itself DIES. if only a part of its akin is injured.

Scienoe haa reoentl1 made a remarkable discovery. If one-third or more of the skin i8 burned. even liver and k1 dne1s begin to DI SINTlIXtBATE. And al though the skin maT heal. yet death results becauae of 1 ts indirect effect on the liver and kidneys. This is but one proof that the skin - in addition to its own inspiration yOrk - helps to maintain normal sctlv1ty. and even the structure of kidneys and liver. Skin activation is eBsential. 80 that other organs can do their part in responding to spirit. Co-operate with your mystical skin oells; and FREE THEM from the sodden condition in whioh you have kept them. Give·them AT LEAST a l~ chanoe to live - to contact air freely for at least 14 minutes EVERY ~t

1.

ask ~ to expo se your 8lg..~ FREELY to AIR! .And to MOVE about when doing 1 t! SEVEN minutes each MORNING and SEVEN minutes each NIGHT. CertainlT these two periods - 14 minutes in all - lees thaa l~ of the 1440 minutes of the day - are not too much, for the activation of the miracle cells of YOUR bo¢y - the only oel18 which MUST have AIR to live.

Choose a seven minutes period convenient to you; and be certa1n that the temperature of the room - in oold weather i8 agreeably warm. Then when you first awaken in the morning and also juat betore you retire at night - take a piece of WHITE SIU Cu)TH about a yard square. and gently fluff - very very gently fluff - the entire skin surface of TOur bodT· Fourteen minutes ot exposure to air - which skin oelle MUST have to live - PLUS this light fluffing of the akin with a dry 80ft white silk cloth - will do MORE to activate your skin, than twenty-four hours out in the sunshine. 18-$2

Give the MYSTIC cells of your skin Just a little chane., and the SPIRITUAL responai veness of body will increase TEN-roW! Awaken your skin to recei va the IN- Spi ring power of God! . This ra:y has a peculiar vlbratol7 power of ita own.

When it passes into a living substance, it inspires it. How long should you continue this aotivation of the ~k1n? Oontinue it for life. IF you wish to continue to inspire the energy of the un1 verae - theenergy 0'1 God - to the lim t.

Yes, the instructions I have given you ~ VIR! simple. I want them to be simple. so you will scaro~ly think. of them. All you need to do. is to secure about a square yard of wbite loft silk and then ~ it wi th the skin free to the air, for at least seven minutes each night, each morning~ Do not 11e down for thi B. but move about - move around in your room by 70urself, alone . . There are many proofs now, that movement of ai r ON the akin counteracts much of what we used to think were detrimental reeult. due to lack of sufficient ox;ygen in breathing. We now know that it is ionization which 18 THI essential in the breathing of air and 1n action of a1r on the sld.n. ile also know that the electronic energy of 004 18 the enerD which CQNDITIONS the cella of the bocV'. so that they beCOiii., lION responai'Va to the e •• ence ot all power. of God. -Let us clearly understand tbla, even if 1 t 10 necessary for m. to repeat something I ~ have previouel1 written.

All energies of God work together II BABMONY. unless 70ur consciou8 mind interfere. with their worldng. For mind and love and life and api r1 t to manff~8t throUCh your bod7. the body must be cond1 tioned. - that Is. brought up to a certain state of vibration - before even the all-powerful energies can manifest! . The 'WOrds 'all-powerful' mean only that energies are &11p01l8rful acoording to the harmolll of all powers of God.

It iii nece 88a17 for the· boq to 1N conti tionecl by the enerD we call heat. BEFORE any cell can fUllctlon at &11. You already know this, for if a human bodl' i8 frol8ll stltf, no power of life or mind can manifes t through it. So also the body MUST be. oondi tioned ~ the electronic energy of God BEFORE 1ts cella can respond to spirit.

But energies which condition the bodf. are NOT life! They merely put bo~ in condition, 80 life oan man1f~.t.

18-83

Hence, scientists who conolude that heat 11 11te:. or that electricity is life are complete~ mistaken. All such energies are merely the conditioning energiee which make it possible for higher God-energies of spirit to manifest. Nevertheless. all the conditioning energies are essential for all manifestation of lite; and the greatest manifestation of life in the body is due to the ionization which takes place beoause ot electronic energy. So it is wise - when you use the square of silk to fluff the skin of your body - to stand: (1) on a tile bath floor, or (2) on a large piece of glass, or (3) on a rubber mat - on anything whioh prevents electrical energy from passing away from the skin. There is proof of the value of this, for electronic energy oan be induced to accumulate on the surface of the skin. You know that merely wal~ng over a thick carpet, barefooted on a cool day. charges the skin with electricity, so that when 70ur finger tips touch an obJect made of metal, there will even be a flashing spark ~f electrioity_ The life or death of every cell of the bodT depend, on a

major positive eleotronic oharge at ita center, and a lesser negative electronic charge on t~e outside of its little boa,. We alao know that if these charges tend to equal eaoh other there ic death; and tha~the vitality, energy, endurance depend on the in-spiring of the positive powers of the universe. Your skin is a ID7stic organ - the miracle organ, as mystic as anything you have ever dreamed ot in occultism! It i8 the on17 bo~ tissue which contains billions of little receiving sets. to take-in the opiritual energies of God. I do not Wish to instruct ;you much about tbi a. I have told all that needs to be done_ I do not wish you to think much about it. - but to feel .... all the time you are fluffing your akin with the white silk cloth and leaving it uncovered free to the air - to feel that your akin ia awakening to responsive vibration of a higher rate.

TOU

Remember the skin's delicacy of response to ~bration ot higher powers, is finer and greater even than the response of the most delicate nerves of the eye. The akin's mzstic aotivity is to receive power - to in-spire energies of God; and then to tranami t those energies to all the billions of cells of your inner bOQyr This In-spirat1on of power, IS the true 'breath of life'.

Ouranos is tbe word ALWAYS used by Jesus for 'heaven'.

It means infinite EXPANSION! And Jesus taught response to the Expanding Power' of God, as THE means of the awakening heaven here and now. of expanding life into a heaven of attainment, of bringing heaven to earth.

Thi s Expanding Ray was celled the Huanaoan Ray ages ago! I t was deified in the Ti&Juanaoan Temple of the God-in-Gold In the sacred eastern Andes - thousands of years before m.ystlc wise

men went to Thibet. IT LIFTS UP and EXPANDS the soul! God used this second step in creation. And by use of this Expanding Ray. God wrought the second Day

of creation. - "the FIm4AMENT in the midst of waters."

In the revised yerslon ot the Bible, notes at bottom of page indicate that the word translated firmament, meana expansion", and God himself called this expansion, heaqen. See Oen 1:8.

To respond to thill Expanding Ra¥. I teach you a ne", atti tude! It iaNEITHER relaxed nor tensed. but expectantly expanding; and hence it 1s in harmon7 wi th spirt tt s ever expanding acti vi ty. You do

~ relax 70ur bOQ1 to become more responsive! No matter what 70U have been taucht, any and all elackne81S of relaxation 1s NOT 'like' the activii,1 of spirit.

Slackness or relaxation·· is LACK of energy 1n aation. It makes both mind and body non-activet Non-activity does not and can NOT respond fully to activity.

There have been strange teachings given to you, to help you attain gre~ter spiritual oonsciousness. Spirit is the highest activity of God, yet these strange teachings tell you to stop activity in order to become active.

To respond to spirit - the greatest activity of the soul first quiet the slow chugging aotion of body and anxious thoughts.

For the First Day of the prooes8 of creation. there i8 the In-spiring ~ - the radiation of energy into the ideal of what you desire, or into the substance or thing or condition you w1ab to oreate.

For the Seoond ~7 of the process, there is the Expand1ns which starts the oreating ot something different from that whioh was iilspired by the Firat Power.

For the Third Da.Y. there 18 the Forming BK whioh begins to give form to what 1s expanding. to actuali.e the ideal of what you desire.

~ of our proo!!! of creat1on, there ,is. the to be used. It is mystio and ~8terlous in Its power; it gives lite even to that whioh does not have life - Just as God on the Fifth Da7 brought forth life out of water which in i teel! is ~ot liv1ng.
