THE SANCTUARY OF THE SILENT HEALING POWER
are merely fed on words, we will say that the Bible says this, the Gita says
that. If those words only produce ideas they will never produce action, that
is why we have this gap which we cannot bridge. The gap between words
and action cannot be bridged, we must realize that we are merely reacting.
As long as we are fed on words we will merely react. Therefore we
must empty ourselves of words, which means we will empty ourselves of
imitation. Words are merely imitative, thus we live in the intellectual level
which is based on imitation. So intellectually we are incapable of action,
we merely have ideas which only create reaction.
When we begin to see clearly this fact we will act without reaction,
we will be transformed, and only in the transformation of the individual is
there Peace, Love and Goodwill, and not in ideals or words. Therefore Love
is not a word, or an idea, is it? Love and Goodwill, are not words nor ideas, but
you are satisfied with the word because it gives you a sensation. You are
psychologically affected and this response you call understanding? What a
travesty of the Truth!
Jesus said, “it is the letter that killeth.” What a wonderful Truth, but
few comprehend it.
It is only when you become “aware,” that you know that you are on the
intellectual level by discerning your thought-feeling-reaction. If my words
only create in you a mental reaction, an imitative response, in accordance
with your ideas, then I have spoken in vain. But if it makes you enquire into
your whole intellectual process and see what it is, then this will lead to action
and action alone will bring into being the Omnipresence of the Omniscient
Omnipotence which is the Life within each one, which is Love and Wisdom,
the True Reality.
“And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with
all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first
commandment. And the second is like, namely this, thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.” Mark l2: 30-31.
