LESSON
XVI. HOW PSYCHIC - CONCENTRATION CAN FULFILL YOUR DESIRE
"It
is a spiritual law that the desire to do necessarily implies
the
ability to do."
You have
all read of "Aladdin's Lamp," which accomplished such
wonderful
things. This, of course, is only a fairy story, but it
illustrates
the fact that man has within him the power, if he is
able to
use it, to gratify his every wish.
If you
are unable to satisfy your deepest longings it is time you
learned
how to use your God-given powers. You will soon be
conscious
that you have latent powers within capable when once
developed
of revealing to you priceless knowledge and unlimited
possibilities
of success.
Man
should have plenty of everything and not merely substance to
live on
as so many have. All natural desires can be realized. It
would be
wrong for the Infinite to create wants that could not be
supplied.
Man's very soul is in his power to think, and it,
therefore,
is the essence of all created things. Every instinct
of man
leads to thought, and in every thought there is great
possibility
because true thought development, when allied to
those
mysterious powers which perhaps transcend it, has been the
cause of
all the world's true progress.
In the
silence we become conscious of "that something" which
transcends
thought and which uses thought as a medium for
expression.
Many have glimpses of "that something," but few ever
reach
the state where the mind is steady enough to fathom these
depths.
Silent, concentrated thought is more potent than spoken
words,
for speech distracts from the focusing power of the mind
by
drawing more and more attention to the without.
Man must
learn more and more to depend on himself; to seek more
for the
Infinite within. It is from this source alone that he
ever
gains the power to solve his practical difficulties. No one
should
give up when there is always the resources of Infinity.
The
cause of failure is that men search in the wrong direction
for
success, because they are not conscious of their real powers
that
when used are capable of guiding them.
The
Infinite within is foreign to those persons who go through
life
without developing their spiritual powers. But the Infinite
helps
only he who helps himself. There is no such thing as a
Special
"
except
to the extent that he believes and hopes and prays for
help
from this great source.
Concentrate
on What You Want and Get It. The weakling is
controlled
by conditions. The strong man controls conditions. You
can be
either the conqueror or the conquered. By the law of
Psychic
- Concentration you can achieve your heart's desire. This law is so
powerful
that that which at first seems impossible becomes
attainable.
By this
law what you at first see as a dream becomes a reality.
Remember
that the first step in Psychic - Concentration is to form a Mental
Image of
what you wish to accomplish. This image becomes a
thought-seed
that attracts thoughts of a similar nature. Around
this
thought, when it is once planted in the imagination or
creative
region of the mind, you group or build associated
thoughts
which continue to grow as long as your desire is keen
enough
to compel close Psychic - Concentration.
Form the
habit of thinking of something you wish to accomplish
for five
minutes each day. Shut every other thought out of
consciousness.
Be confident that you will succeed; make up your
mind
that all obstacles that are in your way will be overcome and
you can
rise above any environment.
You do
this by utilizing the natural laws of the thought world
which
are all powerful.
A great
aid in the development of Psychic - Concentration is to write out
your
thoughts on that which lies nearest your heart and to
continue,
little by little, to add to it until you have as nearly
as
possible exhausted the subject.
You will
find that each day as you focus your forces on this
thought
at the center of the stream of consciousness, new plans,
ideas
and methods will flash into your mind. There is a law of
attraction
that will help you accomplish your purpose. An
advertiser,
for instance, gets to thinking along a certain line.
He has
formed his own ideas, but he wants to know what others
think.
He starts out to seek ideas and he soon finds plenty of
books,
plans, designs, etc., on the subject, although when he
started
he was not aware of their existence.
The same
thing is true in all lines. We can attract those things
that
will help us. Very often we seem to receive help in a
miraculous
way. It may be slow in coming, but once the silent
unseen
forces are put into operation, they will bring results so
long as
we do our part. They are ever present and ready to aid
those
who care to use them. By forming a strong mental image of
your
desire, you plant the thought-seed which begins working in
your
interest and, in time, that desire, if in harmony with your
higher
nature, will materialize.
It may
seem that it would be unnecessary to caution you to
concentrate
only upon achievement that will be good for you and
work no
harm to another, but there are many who forget others and
their
rights, in their anxiety to achieve success. All good
things
are possible for you to have, but only as you bring your
forces
into harmony with that law that requires that we mete out
justice
to fellow travelers as we journey along life's road. So
first
think over the thing wanted and if it would be good for you
to have;
say, "I want to do this; I am going to work to secure
it. The
way will be open for me."
If you
fully grasp mentally the thought of success and hold it in
mind
each day, you gradually make a pattern or mold which in time
will
materialize. But by all means keep free from doubt and fear,
the
destructive forces. Never allow these to become associated
with
your thoughts.
At last
you will create the desired conditions and receive help
in many
unlooked-for ways that will lift you out of the undesired
environment.
Life will then seem very different to you, for you
will
have found happiness through awakening within yourself the
power to
become the master of circumstances instead of their
slave.
To the
beginner in this line of thought some of the things stated
in this
book may sound strange, even absurd, but, instead of
condemning
them, give them a trial. You will find they will work
out.
The
inventor has to work out his idea mentally before he produces
it
materially. The architect first sees the mental picture of the
house he
is to plan and from this works out the one we see. Every
object,
every enterprise, must first be mentally created.
I know a
man that started in business with thirteen cents and not
a
dollar's worth of credit. In ten years he has built up a large
and
profitable business. He attributes his success to two
things--belief
that he would succeed and hard work. There were
times
when it did not look like he could weather the storm. He
was
being pressed by his creditors who considered him bankrupt.
They
would have taken fifty cents on the dollar for his notes and
considered
themselves lucky. But by keeping up a bold front he
got an
extension of time when needed. When absolutely necessary
for him
to raise a certain sum at a certain time he always did
it. When
he had heavy bills to meet he would make up his mind
that
certain people that owed him would pay by a certain date and
they
always did. Sometimes he would not receive their check until
the last
mail of the day of the extension, and I have known him
to send
out a check with the prospect of receiving a check from
one of
his customers the following day. He would have no reason
other
than his belief in the power of affecting the mind of
another
by Psychic - Concentration of thought for expecting that check, but
rarely
has he been disappointed.
Just put
forth the necessary concentrated effort and you will be
wonderfully
helped from sources unknown to you.
Remember
the mystical words of Jesus, the Master: "Whatsoever
thing ye
desire when ye pray, pray as if ye had already received
and ye
shall have."
