THE SANCTUARY OF THE SILENT HEALING POWER

                           Beliefs are a process of the mind and are born of the known. If you
                    merely say “God is the Unknown” so you create an idea of the Unknown.
                    But your mental creation of the Unknown is not the Unknown.

                           The man who accumulates wealth, builds temples, organises religions,
                    the bishops, the cardinals, the preachers as well as the man who drops the
                    bombs say God is their companion, surely their belief is but a form of self-
                    expansion. It is their own conceit. Those who have conditioned their minds

                    to a particular pattern which they call their religion, can never realize the
                    Ultimate Reality which is Love and affection.
                           For the Unknown to be, the mind must be completely emptied, so the

                    important thing is not what you believe or disbelieve or what your activities
                    are, but to understand the whole process, the whole content of yourself,
                    and that means being aware from moment to moment without any sense

                    of accumulation.
                           Only when the mind is utterly silent without any sense of acceptance or
                    rejection, without resistance, condemning or blaming, and without any sense

                    of accumulation—when the self has died, then only is there that which is
                    Real.
                           The word is not important any more, for there is a state of creativeness
                    which is not an idea or a word nor the expression of the Self. Then you will

                    know what is, what is Indescribable. A description of the Indescribable is
                    merely a cultivation of memory. To verbalize the Indescribable is to put It
                    into time and that which is of time cannot be the Timeless.

                           This knowing is not the result of the known, but knowing that the
                    known is not the Unknown. It is not obtained through reason, for It is beyond
                    reason but It does not run contrary to reason. It is not obtained through
                    space or time factor, because It is Ever-present in Its own Eternity. Therefore

                    every moment all Life is concentrated at any point in Its Omnipresence that
                    you may choose to realize.
                           Realizing is not knowing what It is, but knowing that It is. You do

                    not create Reality. Reality created you within Itself and Itself is Eternally
                    present. “I am in the Father and the Father is in me.”
                           Divine Reason helps towards this Divine Realization, we reason towards the

                    Ultimate, then reason ceases to be because it can go no further. It knows it can
                    never know and at that moment there is Reality.
                           Science has shown us that solid substance can be changed to liquids

                    and liquid into gases and gases into a more rarefied substance we call ether
