the goal of life or science and revelation: chapter iv (conscience)
“Now bear in mind the following: Appetites and passions create desires; by means of the reasoning faculties, desires create beliefs of which the soul-consciousness, the divine-life within, makes a law, the law of the individual life. This law is the religious faith, and when it is established, the conscience justifies everything in accordance with it [...]
the goal of life or science and revelation: chapter iv (conscience)
“This selfhood, this consciousness that is conscious without the effort of thinking, this something that is the man, that thinks without his volition, this vital-principle, we must admit, has been derived from the creative-forces. If this is true and if God is the Cause and Source of creation, then it is derived directly from God, [...]

"There are a people among us denominated Spiritualists. The major part of these people is the legitimate outcome of religious devotion on the part of their parents.

“Now where do We stand tonight? It doesn't make any difference how much the rest of the world raves about fear and destruction and domination, that, which is of God, can and will be protected by the Ascended Masters' Sacred Fire Protection! And then you've got permanent Protection to that which is constructive anywhere you [...]

“Now you've called forth Protection many times, Beloved Ones; but in your feelings, many times, there have been vibrations of doubt and fear and wonderment if you were going to have your Protection. You have the same thing in your supply. How many times have you made application for supply, and then privately wondered in [...]
the goal of life or science and revelation: chapter ii (the existence of higher faculties)
“In the preceding chapter we referred to the law of inspiration, that we draw in, inspire, whatever the mind is centered upon to the exclusion of all else, and that the wonderful formative principle dominating human consciousness at once makes an image, a thought-form of that which is indrawn. But in the process, the principle [...]
