THE SANCTUARY OF THE SILENT HEALING POWER

keen alert mind, a mind that is pliable.
The mind that is forced to conform becomes impliable and thus the
whole of our society is based upon compulsion; through compulsion there

can be no understanding, however subtle that compulsion may be.
Wisdom creates confidence and extraordinary pliability of mind
and this is not for the exclusive few. All can acquire it through resistance to
conformity, through resistance to tradition, through deep enquiry. This will

lead to love and affection.
When you love someone there is neither high nor low, there is no
difference, there is just love and affection. This extraordinary flame is free

from opinion, free from tradition, free from conformity for Love does not
conform, It Itself is the extraordinary flame and which in itself is its own
Eternity Ever-present, Love is not a memory or an idea, it is not a concept,

but a living expression of Itself.
A lot of old people will say, “I have had experience” but the trouble
is they cannot keep their eyes off it, so they turn around and walk back

through Life instead of going forward.
Is the world not suffering today from chills, fevers, panics, and booms,
wars and rumours of wars. The world has a temperature, it is up and down
like the waves of the sea. What is wrong with the world is that which is

wrong with man himself for he is the world.
Is it not so that our conferences all end in nought because we have
not discovered the cause is within ourselves. We must stop groaning about

the miserable state of the world and act individually and collectively in our
relationship to one another as sons of God. When we operate upon this Law,
our troubles and worries will change into opportunities for true creativeness
and creative living.

The road ahead will no longer be clouded in mist for the Creative
Power will manifest its own Divine Nature when man realizes that God,
man and the Universe are one. When this is understood we can say in our

hearts with confidence, “Lead Kindly Light amidst the encircling gloom,
lead Thou me on. I do not want to see, each step enough for me, Lead
Thou me on.” Then the Consciousness of the individual mind will be one

with the Creative Consciousness of the Universe. Here alone lies the Spirit
of Power, the Creative Power in man. “He who has ears to hear, let him
hear . . . .”
