THE SANCTUARY OF THE SILENT HEALING POWER

What we create in our minds tends to out-picture in the objective world,
this is the result of our thought action, but thought itself must have an origi-
nating source, otherwise it could not exist, and the originating source is the

Presence. Thus when we realise and recognise this Presence and dwell upon Its
attributes of Love and Wisdom we establish them within us.
“Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not
seen.” “Faith” is that state of consciousness which has reached its own source.

When this state is reached creation is automatic. Just as electricity flows through
the filament in the lamp and produces a light, so does the Creative Power flow
into the ideas the consciousness holds. We know electricity is a form of energy

but no one can tell what it is. Neither can we tell what the Creative Power
is, but we know that It is, just as we know that electricity is.
To clearly understand how the Creative Power works we must understand

our relationship to this Creative Power.
Jesus compared himself as the Son of the Father. “As the Father has
life in Himself so He grants the Son to have Life in himself,” showing that

it was the same life in both, that this same Life in the Father flowed through the
Son as a means of creation.
“Whatever I see my Father do I do also.” Here is the answer. The mode
of action must be the same, the Son being made in the image and likeness

of the Father.
Jesus brought it down so that the human mind could comprehend
the meaning that there was no separation between the Father and the Son.

All the struggle we see going on in our own lives and in the lives of
others is caused by a sense of separation, thus a continuous struggle is set
up to bridge the gulf of separation, but when Truth is realised, the struggle
ceases. “In other words take hold of the Tree of Life and it shall become a

Spring of Living Water rising up to Eternal Life.” But to do this we must
let go of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil for we cannot hold on
to both. We must either cling to one and leave the other.

This world is still struggling with good and evil with the result that chaos
reigns instead of peace. I am the Light of the World, he that follows me shall
not walk in darkness but he shall find for himself the Light of Life.” This is

the great “search” we have to find for ourselves, the Light of Life, then we shall
not walk in the dark any more.
The Master discovered this method by which he could use the Creative

Power by understanding the Law. Want, limitation, sickness, failure and
