 Thereafter I turned deliberately within for guidance and instruction, especially as somewhere at this time I had read that the words, “Be Still, and Know I AM, God,” held a deep significance to one who would search out their true meaning. So I determined to find that meaning.

I repeated it with the same effect, and then I continued in the same consciousness, adding whatever I was inspired to say, and found my mind amazed at the wisdom it heard voiced.

Then after many opportunities given to prove this, a final test must be met, such as came at my third “Initiation,” when the Christ now ruling the Soul makes Himself known to the mind, and gradually takes possession of and rules the life.
