CONTAINING quotations from our replies to those writing us for help in their Spiritual problems.

Each day at 12 o’clock noon, we take the names of those asking for such help in the Silence of the Spirit, and “Speak the Word” for them. Many hundreds have testified to receiving the blessings of such ministry.

TRY NOT to let yourself be discouraged because of any seeming failure to make just the contact you seek in meditation. Undoubtedly it is due to the negative state that you have allowed yourself to get into, causing the so-called sickness. Remember, sickness of body is but sickness of mind, for only what we see and believe to be so in consciousness is what outmanifests.

Therefore, refuse to let any negative thought or feeling of any kind in your consciousness, and there can no inharmonious effects manifest for what is not true of God, is not true of anything, and has no real existence.

INDEED it is a joy to contact souls who have made the pilgrimage before us, who know the way and who clearly point out the way to us. But better than all this is the joy of contacting, feeling and knowing the loving Presence within, Who becomes our true Guide and the only Teacher to Whom we can always turn and get just what we need at the time.

In these Lessons we are sending you, you are being helped to find and know that Teacher, and there is no doubt but what you have now found Him and that He is showing to you the way He wants you to go with Him.

Therefore, dear friend, be not concerned about the slowness of your journey or the failures you have experienced, which are but obstacles on the path that He places before you to overcome; but try to wait upon Him every moment of the day in a simple, childlike, perfect love and trust, and know that He will take care of everything—when you will find that He will never fail you.

THE LIGHT shining from between your eyes is but an indication of your Spiritual understanding beginning to open, which means that if you will utilize that understanding by directing its light to the problem facing you and will listen to and trust in God, He will show you the truth back of what appears. Be unconcerned about whether you are radiating a light or not, but whether you are walking in that light and applying it to the helping and blessing of yourself as well as others.

YOU do not know how happy we are to learn of the perfect return of your health and that you will soon be able to be home again. But, dear one, that was to be expected, because with the new understanding that has come to you, and with your mind now filled with truth, the outer manifestation of health and harmony had to follow.

DEAR friend, divine healing cannot come from any person or any outer source. It can only come from the loving Christ within—your own Divine Self, Who stands ready to give it to you the moment you surrender all to Him in a simple, childlike perfect love and trust.

Therefore, do not let the claims of such false teachers deceive or even tempt you, for you have in the Impersonal Lessons all you need to turn you to the True Source within. It remains but for you to walk fearlessly the way shown and never doubt but what you will finally reach the goal, the Kingdom within. In very truth can you even in the day-time look into the heavens of your consciousness and see a bright star—the Christ Star—shining there. Follow that star every moment of the day and it will never fail to lead you where you are to get in Spiritual understanding.

WE ARE interested in your friend’s planning to go to Thibet to enter the Monastery where it is claimed Jesus was for a time. However, we have learned that it is not necessary to go to the Himalayas or to any other foreign country to gain illumination, mastery, the Kingdom of Heaven, or whatever your friend is seeking. For we know that all that is really needed is to find the Christ, Who abides deep within the temple of one’s soul, and that He can teach us all things and lead us unto all truth. So why go to all the trouble of traveling way over to India, when everything that they could possibly teach her can be gained right here in one’s own inner sanctuary?

ANSWERING your question about the meaning of colors, we urge when these colors come that you listen and note carefully the vibrations and the feelings that accompany them, trying to learn just what each color represents. By watching your feelings or reactions to these colors you will get first-hand what they mean. It would do you no good to read it in a book; unless you can prove what is said you would be no wiser than before. Such seeing of colors is not very important, but feeling the meaning of what comes with them is the chief end to be sought. The ability always to see the complementary color beside the main one portrayed would stand you in good stead if you were an artist or were dealing in any way with colors.
