“The Cyclopean eye figures a reality of life referred to by our Lord when he said: “If thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.” (Matt. vi. 22.) For purposes of concentration upon one subject, the physical eyes and the eyes of the mind become one—physically upon the book before you, [...]

the goal of life or science and revelation: chapter i (development)
“The terms “inspiration” and “revelation” have been misapplied, and therefore need definition. Inspiration bears to revelation the relation of cause to effect. Inspiration is not necessarily the act of a human agent becoming a medium of expression for a being in the spirit-world, but it is a well-known phenomenon of everyday life. The act of [...]

“The beginnings of organized life act from instinct without brainpower to define and guide the impulse. The insect moves about apparently without aim, a little way in one direction, and back, then in another. Universal Life runs it in accordance with its form and quality, as the water runs the waterwheel. But as experience is [...]

The former is that of the followers of the doctrine of the sect of the Sutrantika. They closely adhere to the [...]
Grateful Day, Everyone…
“The night before any important action or before Class, always go into the Secret Heart of God's Great Love. Mankind and Students do not prepare the way ahead. When one wakes in the night, one sometimes returns to the body to anchor in the outer consciousness something that is needed there, or that is to [...]

"Never let down your bars of protection to anyone. It is wise for all to use the Consciousness that there is only God acting.
