THE SCIENCE OF MIRACULOUS LIVING

THE SCIENCE OF MIRACULOUS LIVING

In every living being there is an overpowering urge to know more, do more, have more, experience more, give more, and be more. There is the constant uninterrupted drive toward the absolute, the infinite, the perfect and the ideal. This is the divine spark, the hunger for God, the mechanism of life, the Law of Nature, or the Divine Will at work, in and through us. This urge or drive constitutes the motive of our existence. It is the force behind evolution and all advancement. It is the cradle of dreams, wishes, aspirations, creativity, genius, the flame of desire. It holds the key to all fulfillment. The fact that you are forever seeking a greater and deeper experience of life, forever gravitating toward the Infinite and Perfect, is living testimony of the Supreme Truth expressed variously as follows:

The Father and I are one

In God we live and move and have our being

In us God lives and moves and has his being

By myself I can do nothing. The Father in me, He doeth the works

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

How useful is this new revelation to you? We are now in the 21st Century, a period when man has attained the summit of material advancement. He has uncovered all the physical laws of the universe and applied them to the point where he has become the master of the universe. In previous years, religions, philosophies and cults have been the engine of society. Books have been written on how to accumulate wealth, how to gain peace of mind, how to succeed at school, at work, in the family, etc. In the days of shallow materialism, these “How To’s” were relevant and sufficient. But now, humanity has metamorphosed into a loftier reality. The era in which man longs to go deeper into life and drink freely of the pure springs of life. He no longer desires to be burdened with doctrines, creeds, rituals, and techniques. He desires absolute freedom. He wants to be unlimited, to know and understand the Sublime Truths and Realities of the Universe, to enter into the fullness of Wisdom and Power, so that he can decide for himself exactly what he wants, and pave his own way to arrive at his goal. This new burning desire for freedom, is the Infinite Presence, seeking to reveal and express Himself in a new and loftier way. It is time for humanity to break loose from his limiting traditions, beliefs, formulas, and animal existence, and ascend into a higher realm of existence; that of the Spiritual, Supernatural, Miraculous, Magical, Metaphysical, Heavenly, Lovely, Beautiful, Harmonious, Eternal, Glorious, and Blissful. This is the era of miraculous living, the era of automatic prosperity, the coming of the Kingdom of God.

Today, in this 21st Century, is the appointed time for the fulfillment of the Prophesy spelled out so vividly in the 21st Chapter of the Book of Revelations: “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth. The first heaven and the first earth had passed away and no longer was there any sea. I saw the new Jerusalem, the holy city coming down from God, out of Heaven, adorned as a bride prepared for her husband. A loud voice came from the throne, ‘Here is the dwelling place of God among mortals: He will pitch his tent among them and they will be his people; He will be God-with-them. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. There shall be no more death or mourning, crying out or pain, for the world that was, has passed away’. The one seated on the throne said, ‘See, I make all things new’.

“And He said to me, ‘Write these words because they are sure and true.’ And He said to me; ‘It is already done! I am the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end. I myself will give the thirsty water to drink without cost from the fountain of living water. Thus the winner will be rewarded. For him, I shall be God and he will be my son.”

It is this deeper truth that I want to reveal to you before you read the book that follows. It is this Pure, Original, Infallible perspective of life that I want you to have before you do anything else. In fact once this truth dawns on you, you would be off to a new beginning. The words of Paul will be fulfilled in you: “For anyone who is in Christ (The Consciousness of Truth, or Conscious Unity with the Source) is a new creation. For him, old things (Poverty, sickness, limitation, bad habits, unemployment, insecurity, fears, doubts, loneliness, low self-esteem, oppression, frustration, etc) have passed away; a new world (a paradise of love, peace, faith, courage, purpose, opportunity, success, abundance, prosperity, joy, love, health, harmony, bliss, etc) has come. There is but one cause to the misery of humanity. Men have been desperately trying to live life from the elevation (consciousness) that they are weak, imperfect mortals who must strive and sweat in order to survive, and engage in all sorts of religious practices as a means to reaching God. No doubt the Master said, “you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free”. He knew that since time immemorial, humanity has enslaved itself by living a lie. He also knew that the only salvation was man’ s awakening to the Eternal Truth. He who knows the Truth will live his new life from the elevation (consciousness) of Infinite Power, Wisdom, Supply and Freedom. His life will be the natural, effortless, and automatic manifestation of his union with the Father, even as Jesus exemplified and promised, “if you believe in me (The Way, The Truth, and the Life), you will do all the works I do, and even greater works.” What then is that Truth?

There is a golden thread that runs across the Universe, organizing and aligning all life according to a certain definite purpose or plan. There is a cosmic way or law along whose lines Nature unfolds, reveals and fulfills its infinite beauty and Divine Destiny. There is a nameless, incomprehensible and unfathomable Source or spring that pours itself out as a visible fountain of life. There is a Spiritual undercurrent, Pure Life, or Divine Reality, which is the one and only Truth. Truth alone is. Life is the automatic, infallible, omni-present, omni-active and eternal self-revelation, self-expression, self-manifestation, and self-fulfillment of the Truth. Truth is boundless Power, Supply, and Intelligence.

The visible universe, including all material experience is the face (image and likeness) of this Eternal, Invisible and Glorious Reality. The physical, is the spiritual-made-visible. Spirit is Intelligence or Consciousness. God, the Creative Principle or Divine Mind lives by Thinking. Creation is the images of God’s mind expressed. Life is Pure Being, experiencing his thoughts. Being or Living, is self-contemplation. The mind is the faculty through which Spirit or Consciousness crystallizes itself into form. The natural mechanism of life is from invisible to visible, from spirit to matter, from cause to effect, from within to without, from center to circumference, from intangible to tangible, from reality to manifestation. The mind is the condenser through which this Divine Incarnation and Glorification (The Supreme fact of Life) is effected.

Man is consciousness. His body is the garment or mirror image of his thoughts. His circumstance is his mind made visible. The mind is the vehicle of thought. The mind, being Spirit in nature, is free, boundless, unlimited. Man, therefore is endowed with free will-the ability and prerogative to choose his thoughts, and hence, experiences. Through the physical senses, man acquires and transmits inputs to his mind from the physical world. Through the sixth sense or intuition, or imagination, man acquires and transmits inputs to his mind from the spiritual world. All the inputs of the mind are used to build the “inner man” or consciousness. The sum total of a man’s thoughts constitute his consciousness. Hence he whose thoughts, feelings, actions, words, and beliefs are based on a false principle, tends to have a faulty consciousness and hence a faulty life. His consciousness is like a virus infected computer. His life is the embodiment of misery.

The basic false principle or limiting belief that has conditioned, controlled and enslaved humanity over the ages has been the consciousness of duality: That man is a mortal animal, born of woman, full of misery and few of days, who needs to toil his way through life and earn the graces to enjoy a blissful after life through suffering and religious practices. But as we have seen, at one point in his evolution, man used his free will to lead himself astray. He conditioned himself wrongly and so went out of tune with the Universe, The Divine Will, The Law of Freedom, Abundance and Eternal Increase.

The Messiah came for the express purpose of revealing to man his true, authentic and forgotten identity. That is why he is the ideal man, the first born son of the new creation. He didn’t come that we should deify and mystify him, and create religions to imitate him. He came to remind us of who we are, and show us how we ought to live. That is why he said that all the he did, we could do even more. Born with the name Jesus, he became Jesus Christ, that you, born with the name Laura, may become Laura Christ. Christ is not Jesus’ second name. It is a noun that stands for Messiah or Redeemer. The Christ is a state of being, The Consciousness that identifies itself as one with the Father. “The Father and I are one”. “I live, yet not I, but Christ in me”.

Man is consciousness. That which he consciously identifies himself a being, he becomes. When you consciously awaken to the realization that indeed, you and the Father are one; that you are not an independent helpless creature, but rather the Divinely designed channel of the Self-expression if Infinite Intelligence, then the Christ Consciousness is born. You become the Truth. You are free at last. Your life becomes the automatic self-fulfillment of the divine will, the automatic manifestation of power. You begin working your own miracles.

So now, you see clearly the mystery hidden within the words of 2Corintheans 5:17, and Revelations 21:1-7;

  • Having awoken to your Divine Identity as one with the Father,
  • You have become a New Creation, the Christ, the Son of God, The New Jerusalem, The Winner.
  • God has pitched his tent among mortals; that is, through your physical body and material existence, The Infinite Spirit is expressing his unfathomable glory.
  • There are no more tears, no more death, no more mourning, because the appearance of the glorious, impenetrable and irresistible splendor of heaven (Truth) has scattered the darkness of worry, anxiety, pain, fear, limitation, sickness, frustration, calamity, poverty, misery.
  • At no cost, the thirsty are now drinking at the fountain of Life. Your every need is being filled, your every prayer is being answered, your every wound is being hilled; effortlessly, automatically and without fail, because it is the Father himself who is doing it. You are a god. You are the Son of God. Your only duty is to tune into Pure Being, to stay in the presence of the King; so that through you, the lofty Divine Destiny of life will be fulfilled.

Here are the seven steps to help you enter into the fullness of this Power and Freedom:

  1. Recognition: You must recognize the fact that all the facts prevailing in your life are false. That they are mere illusions created by your distorted conditioned view of the Universe. And that because they are false, they are impermanent, are not real, have no substance of their own, and thus can be changed.
  2. Realization: Having recognized the false as the false, you will now enter into the realization that beyond this falsehood lies the Truth, a Reality hitherto unknown to you. This Truth is the only reality that really is. It is Pure Being, God, The Eternal, Good, Perfect Life, The Kingdom of God, The Real You.
  3. Awakening: Within the realization of Truth, the Christ Consciousness is born. The Father is the only reality. The Father is one. Besides him, there is no other. Therefore the Father and I are one.
  4. Self-Contemplation: When you awaken to your oneness with the Father, you will realize that the Son, is the necessary, logical Self-Expression of the Father. He who becomes Christ or God Conscious, becomes the Individualization of Pure Being. That is Divine Mind finds expression through infinite channels or sons or individuals. This is Identity. Self-Contemplation or Self-Awareness is that state of praying without ceasing. You have to keep your mind focused on the Divine Ideal, your Perfect self, so that the lies that surround you will not contaminate your consciousness. This is the reason why Jesus always went into the mountains alone to pray. Because you possess free will, you have the prerogative to now designate this Power into whatever form of material expression that you desire, so long as this desire is good, pure, praiseworthy and true.
  5. Specialization: As you spend time with the Father within the silence of your soul, as you contemplate the mysteries of your being, your real life mission, needs, goals, dreams, aspirations, and desires will unfold and be brought to your consciousness. Crystallize these intangible desires into practical achievable goals and them down.
  6. Materialization: Having written down your goals, you will then access yourself to see what specialized knowledge, skills, and talents you already have, and which ones you need to develop. You will now need to perfect some specific goods or services that you will give the world in exchange for what you are to receive. Or you will now need to re-enter your present employment with this new Spirit of the Presence with you, so that every little thing you do reflects your Divine State. Be it a floor you are washing, a book you are writing, a meal you are preparing, a class you are teaching, do it as if it were God himself doing it. With this spirit, you will soon become too big for your present station, and nature will then propel you up the ladder to your desired station, along perfect lines or growth and advancement.
  7. Actualization: God is the eternal now, and the universal here. The Present is the only reality. You can never live in the future. You may make plans for tomorrow, but when that tomorrow comes, it will still turn out to be now. Life is already Complete, Perfect, finished. You not here to create. You are here so that Life should experience itself through you. So whatsoever you desire or commit yourself to accomplish, you must visualize and experience it within an already established reality, here and now. You must see and experience it within, before you can touch and experience it without. It is already done. This is the miracle of life. It is already done.

Dedicate your whole attention to the study and practice of these Seven Pillars of Miraculous Living, and use them as the blueprint of your life. Before you pick up any book to read, before you arise to face each day, before you set out on a mission, journey or project, before you arise and start your new resurrection experience of life; be certain that it is the Spirit of this New Revelation that is animating your being. Then indeed, you will be “the word (Intelligence, Power, Supply, Goodness, Beauty, Immortality, and Bliss) made flesh”; the Divine Messenger of the New Age.

You are now ready to study “” with a new and profound insight that will cause you to reap out of it, astonishing results that you never before imagined, and which no one else is capable of reaping. Every inspired book, is the work of God, but though the book may be in print for thousands of years, only the Inspired Mind, the Christ Mind, shall uncover the secrets, mysteries and miracles hidden within the words. Come now, step out of the crowd, go ye forward, and celebrate you salvation.
