The Inner Life 1933

may one attain, following the law of choice, belief and action. Any and every thought is possible of realization and demonstration. Whatever one wishes one may become. Every thought holds its possibility and promise. Whatever you think of with desire, that you may be and do. Desire is a promise of fulfillment. De- vote yourself steadfastly to one purpose. Each life should be a day of holy purpose.

Following the law each individual chooses to express the pur- pose to which he owes full allegiance. He chooses consciously to recognize the urge of his spirit for expression of its potential purpose, that purpose for which he came to earth. Choice is a function of the conscious mind. The conscious mind chooses before the soul acts or the spirit expresses. Man may choose to repress the urge of his spirit or to express this urge. According to his definite choice is life a harmony or a discord, a success or a failure.

When the conscious mind chooses to oppose spirit, there is consequent lack of cooperation and of coordination of the parts of the unit, man. The result is diminished power and inhibited success in life’s achievement.

Note in the physical being the disastrous effects of the lack of coordination. Can you not understand that this is due to lack of harmony of body, mind and spirit? Individual harmony results in expression of spirit, peace of mind, health of body. Until the great truth of unity and inter-relation of all the king- doms and planes of life become general, lack of coordination will prevail, inhibiting development and progress, inhibiting health and success.

Potentially in each life is a definite, an individual, an essential purpose to which one should be true. Essential to true progress is the recognition, choice and acceptance of one’s true purpose. The consciousness of a purpose in life is as the sunrise to the day; it lights the whole. A sacred purpose is a continuous benediction.

Devoted purpose is a mighty key to the stronghold of wisdom’s temple.

TO HIS PURPOSE TRUE BE THE LIFE OF EVERY MAN.
