THE SANCTUARY OF THE SILENT HEALING POWER

and this included the practical application of God’s Creative Power in man and
legends tell us of these wondrous works, done with this understanding.
These schools existed for many years before and after Jesus came,

they became extinct as dogmatic religion came into force and history tells
us how many of the books and records of these schools were burnt by order of
King Constantine. Nevertheless, the Truth still intact, was kept alive in the
Himalayas.

To know this Truth, is the greatest treasure in the world; every soul
is trying to find it one way or another, either consciously or unconsciously;
Each one is trying to express the Creative Power but with little success because

the Law is not understood.
What is keeping people ignorant of this wisdom today is that God is
presented to most children and adults as some person outside themselves

whom they have to worship in ignorance. God is represented as an old

the ability to think, so perpetuate a lot of nonsense which the unthinking
accept as true, the blind lead the blind and they all fall into the ditch.

of the oneness of all things. God, man and the Universe being one, the
Universe gives rise to the individual and the individual, that understands,

gives expression to the Universal. Heaven is a state of consciousness that
is aware of Wholeness, oneness, where separation does not exist, the unity
of God and man as one and the same.

It was this wisdom that the ancients knew and practised, it was the
same wisdom that Jesus gave expression to. This wisdom can also be yours
and there is not anything that can compare with it. It is more precious than
