JULY 1954

There is sufficient scientific skill in the world to produce food and things
for everybody. But the ideas of nationalities such as the English, the American,
the Chinese, the Russians and the many different racial antagonisms are

preventing man from making plans for world distribution. Therefore the
struggle and misery in the world is increased.
When I begin to understand the material I can proceed step by step
to the deeper things. There I can find out what is Real and what is false.

But when I assume I am different because of my nationality, because of
my belief, I will dwell in the illusion of separation which brings struggle
and misery into the world.

It is only when I come to that point where I can find out the signifi-
cance of Life, what it really means to love my neighbour as myself and not
a dictionary meaning, not a theological or a philosophical meaning for me

you must have, then the Infinite Life will be given free expression.
When you understand that it is the Father who is ever working in

you, you will know that results are assured. “Whatsoever I see the Father
doing so I do in like manner.” If you can understand this then there is pure
action, which is creative.

It is difficult for the one who is conditioned to discern the difference
between pure action and reaction. We must understand that all things external
are relative, and what is relative has no power of its own except the power

we give to it. Remember that struggling brings frustration and fear.
When we fear, our faith is on the same yardstick. We measure them
both by our success and failures so we fail to see the faith that the Master
