102 Christmas 1912 Address by Charles Fillmore


welcome to our Christmas edition of the Unity Weekend Message. Today, we're going to review an address by Charles Fillmore given in 1912 at the Tracy Auditorium. 

"The one aim and object of man's existence is to put on Christ, "Christ in you, the hope of glory." This hasn't always been rightly understood because the true concept of man has not entered into his consciousness.

We have separated Jesus Christ from ourselves and talked about him as a man when he represents the universal principle, the supreme ideal man, which we are all seeking to put on to manifest to be. It is a question of how shall we go about it. We all admit that we would like to be better men, better women, have a higher standard of life in all of its details, but seem to be in darkness as to the method of attaining this.

Now the way is plain and very simple, but it requires some little persistence in following it out, in going that way. And the first step is always to accept that one supreme proposition, that I was, in my original inception, in divine mind, supreme ideal, the very highest that God could imagine was born into me, created in me, and it is my privilege to express it.

Let Christ be formed in you. Now, do you accept that proposition? If you do, you have taken the first step to the forming of Christ. Then the next step is to affirm that all of the Christ attributes Whatever they may be, are now forming themselves in my character. You follow that out day after day, and you put on Christ.

You put on Christ just to the extent that you accept these fundamental propositions and make them yours. So a simple direct demonstration of putting on Christ is to affirm that Christ is now being formed in my consciousness. Praise the Father, the Christ, that God may be formed in you. Say to Him right now, Father, Let thy Christ, thy supreme ideal man, be formed in me.

Let us all join in that prayer.

Episode 12

Easter symbolizes the final overcoming in the Bible story of man's journey into light. It represents the triumph of Spiritual Consciousness over the last Outer Intimidation of man.

An adequate faith in your own ability and distinctive individuality, coupled with your faith in God, gives you strength to face life “square on”, and not retreat. You do have “what it takes”! God has built it into your inmost being. Go forth in confidence now, to claim the good new things that await you as an unbound, fearless child of God with whom all things are possible!”

“Christ has Risen!” respond “Surely Christ has Risen in You!”

12. Prospering Power of Prayer Part 5 Preview


We continue our study of Catherine Ponder's The Prospering Power of Prayer and look at Chapter 5 Prayer in Pictures. 

Here is a preview of some of the ideas we will discuss this weekend:

You can picture a thing and bring it through

Rather than trying to reason it through or force it through.

You can hasten your good through picturing!

 

Results have to be planned.

Prosperity is a planned result.

 

When we visualize with the help of a Wheel of Fortune

We are really praying and imaging our good;

We are changing the current of our thinking

From negative to positive,

From despair to hope,

From discouragement to encouragement.

 

Keep quiet about what you are picturing,

 

so that you will not talk your good away.

Awaken the Power Within You

 

“According to the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, the practice of meditation adds no special powers at all. All the powers are always present within us, but they are lying blocked (Sutra IV.3). When a farmer wants to irrigate his field , he does not create water, nor does he push it into the field. He simply raises the sluice gate that was blocking the flow, and the field is automatically irrigated. The blocks we have placed in our minds are simply removed in meditation so that the inner forces begin to function, and all our faculties come to their fullest possible growth.”

-Pandit Usharbudh Arya (who later became Swami Veda Bharati), Mantra & Meditation, in the Forwardpages xv - xvi

How Unity Got a Transcendent God

 Hi Friends,

This is a great post on the Truth Unity Website:


That metaphysical Christians experience God as immanent (the God within which we refer to as the Christ) is well understood. What is not so obvious is our experience of the transcendent God (a God in which we live and move and have our being). Does such a God exist? If so, is the transcendent God comprehensible to us? If a transcendent God exists and is comprehensible, is such a God personally involved in my life? Does He or She care? Or is It impersonal Principle?

This 90 minute talk given in 1984 by Phil White explains why we have his ambiguity in Unity today. Phil explains and compares the basic belief of Phineas Quimby, “change your thoughts and you change your life” and the basic belief of Mary Baker Eddy, “Divine Mind and its ideas lead to expression”.Read More>>>>>

May every word you speak float down like a rose petal.


May every step you take tinkle like a silver bell.
May every thought in your mind become a star in heaven.
May everything you touch become flowers and fruits.
May you be Infinity's infant and suckle on Her sun-breast.
May sunbeam and moonbeam be the twin ropes for your soul's swing.
May every word you speak float down like a rose petal.
(Blessings, pages 26)
by Swami Veda Bharati
