December 1953

My dear friends,

Let the New Year be a truly creative one for yourself and others.

———————————–-———————————

There is a renewal of resolutions every year, but what is the use of

resolutions when they cannot be carried out? The only way that this can be
done is to discern the necessity of a resolution, unless this is done resolutions
are made to be broken.

The mind of man is the gateway to the dammed-up reservoir of Life’s
tremendous Forces, yet man seems impotent to bring into effect these Forces
for the benefit of mankind because he does not discern the cause of his misery.

Therefore he makes fresh resolutions every year to make the New Year better
than the one that is past.
But in this way man is living in the past and the future, disregarding
the NOW which is the only time. Because man has failed to see this, he is

seeking a way outside himself to release the Creative Power so that It can
work for him. But this cannot be done. The great secret is to learn how to
cleanse the mind of all that is preventing Life’s renewing process in your

everyday living. When this is done, resolutions are unnecessary. In fact
they become a hindrance.
Man does not create this mighty Intelligent Creative Force. But this
Creative Force works for him when he knows that it is Ever-present and that

which is preventing Its expression is his own stupidity in not recognising
that Love and Goodwill are the keys to all true Creative Power in man.
Self-knowledge is the beginning of wisdom and wisdom is the

beginning of man’s inner transformation; what the inner is so the outer
shall be.
Man does not create the things that are Eternal and True, they come

into operation when we discern that which is preventing their expression.
Therefore the solving of all problems in the world is not by means of
meetings and councils but through wisdom, goodwill and understanding.

My earnest desire is that you be truly creative in the year 1954. This
lies within yourself and not outside you.
