Subject: More From Out Of The East. July 13, 2008.
This should be called "From Out Of East", Part 7, but
we'll call it "More From Out Of The East" Part 1. This
comes from the books or volumns called "Life And
Teachings of the Ma-ters Of The Far East".
Here we are told how to manifest bread.
........................................................
........................................................
Thus the need for bread but showed that the substance
with which to create bread or any other needed thing is
at hand without limitation and bread can be created
from this substance just as well as stones can be
created therefrom. Every good desire man has is G-d's
desire therefore there is an unlimited supply in the
Universal Go- Substance all about us to fill every
desire. All we need do is to learn to use what -od has
already created for us and this He wills to have us do
that we may be free from every limitation and thus be
`abundantly free.' 'When Je--s said `I am the door' He
meant that the I AM in each s-ul is the door through
which the life power and substance of the great I AM
which is G-d comes forth into expression through the
individual. This I AM has but one mode of expression
and that is through idea thought word and act. This I
AM G-d Being which is power substance intelligence is
given form by consciousness and for this reason the
Master said `According to your faith be it unto you'
and `All things are possible to them that believe.'
'Now we see that -od is within the s-ul as power
substance and intelligence or in s-iritual terms wisdom
love and truth and is brought out into form or
expression through consciousness. The consciousness
which is in the infinite mind of Go- and in man is
determined by the concept or belief that is held in
mind. It is the belief in separation from Sp-rit that
has caused our forms to age and d-e. When we see that
Spi-it is all and that form is constantly being
expressed from Spir-t then shall we understand that
that which is born of or brought out of Spiri- is
-pirit.
'The next great truth to be revealed through this
consciousness is that each individual being a concept
of the d-vine Mind is held in that Mind as a perfect
idea. Not one of us has to conceive himself. We have
been perfectly conceived and are always held in the
perfect mind of G-d as perfect beings. By having this
realization brought to our consciousness we can contact
the di-ine Mind and so reconceive what Go- has already
conceived for us. This is what Jes-- called being `born
again.' It is the great gift the silence has to offer
us for by contacting the G-d-mind we can think with
G-d-mind and know ourselves as we are in reality rather
than as we have thought ourselves to be.
We contact -od-mind through true thought and so bring
forth a true expression whereas in the past perhaps
through untrue thought we have brought forth an untrue
expression. But whether the form be perfect or
imperfect the Being of the form is perfect G-d-power
substance and intelligence. It is not the Being of the
form that we wish to change but the form that Being has
assumed. This is to be done through the renewing of the
mind or through the change from the imperfect to the
perfect concept from the thought of man to the thought
of Go-. How im****tant then to find -od to contact Him
to be One with Him and to bring Him forth into
expression. How equally im****tant is the silence or the
stilling of the personal mind that the G-d-mind in all
its splendor may illumine the consciousness. When it
does then we shall understand how `the sun of
righteousness (right-use-ness) shall rise with h-aling
in his wings.' The mind of -od floods consciousness as
sun****ne floods a darkened room. The infusion of the
Universal Mind into the personal mind is like the
entrance of the vastness of the outside air into the
impurity of that which has long been held in some close
compartment. It stands alone supreme and we realize
that we are to build but one temple. The Temple of the
Living Go- is the blending of the greater with the
lesser through which the lesser becomes one with the
greater. The impurity was caused by the separation of
the lesser from the greater. The purity is caused by
their union so that no longer is there a greater and a
lesser but just the one good whole pure air. Even so
must we know that -od is One and all things visible and
invisible are One with Him. It is separation from Him
that has caused sin sickness poverty and d-ath. It is
union with Him that causes one to become a whole Being
or to become conscious of being whole. 'The separation
from unity is the descent of the a-gels on the ladder
of consciousness. The return to unity is the ascent of
the an-els upon the ladder. The descent is good for
unity then becomes expressed in diversity but in
diversity there need be no concept of separation.
That which is diversity has been misconceived from
the personal or external viewpoint to be separation.
The great work for each so-l is to lift the personal
viewpoint to such heights in consciousness that it
becomes one with the whole. When all can `meet with one
accord in one place' that place in consciousness where
it is understood that all things visible and invisible
have their origin in the one Go- then we stand upon the
Mount of Transfiguration. At first we see Je--s and
with Him Moses and Elias or Law and Prophecy and the
Christ (the power within man to know -od) and we think
to build three temples but the deeper meaning comes. We
are given to realize the immortality of man and to know
that divinity is never lost that Di-ine man is
d-athless eternal. Then Moses the Law and Elias the
Prophecy disappear and the Christ stands alone supreme
and we realize that we have to build but one temple the
Temple of the Living G-d within our very selves. Then
the H-ly S-irit fills the consciousness and the sense
delusions of s-n sickness poverty and de-th become no
more. This is the great purpose of the silence. 'This
temple from which you may chip a piece and the scar
will be instantly healed but typifies the temple of our
body of which J--us spoke the temple not made by hands
eternal in the heavens which we are to bring forth here
on earth.
'Chapter VII
Thursday morning the sun rose clear and beautiful
but instead of pu****ng on as we had expected we were
told that we would wait where we were until the trails
had dried and the rivers had receded so we could
proceed more comfortably.
We were all fearful lest our provisions should be
exhausted and one of our party voiced this fear. Emil
who had charge of the whole outfit came to us and said
'You need not fear. Does not G-d take care of all His
creatures both great and small and are we not His
creatures? You will see that here I have a few kernels
of corn or corn seed. I will plant them.
By this act I have definitely said that I want corn.
I have formed corn in my mind. I have fulfilled the law
and in due season it will come forth. Is it necessary
for us to await the long arduous process that Nature in
her slow growth and unfoldment will take in order to
grow corn? If so we would be obliged to wait a long
hard time to obtain it. Why not use a higher or more
perfect law given us by the Father to produce it? All
that is required is to become quiet and visualize or
idealize corn and we have corn cured ready for use. If
you doubt it you can gather it grind it into meal then
make it into bread.' There before us was corn grown and
cured so that we did gather it and grind it and
afterwards made it into bread. Then Emil went on to say
'This you have seen and believe but why not use a more
perfect law and bring forth a more perfect thing or
exactly what you want, bread. You will see by using
this more perfect or as you would say more subtle law I
am able to bring forth exactly what I need, bread.'
And as we stood there spellbound a large loaf of
bread was in his hands nor did the supply stop until
there were forty loaves upon the table before us placed
there apparently by Emil himself. He remarked 'You see
there is sufficient for all if not sufficient more can
be supplied until there is enough and to spare.' We all
ate the bread and pronounced it good. Emil continued
'When --sus at Galilee asked Philip `Whence shall we
buy bread?' He did this to try him for within Himself
He knew full well there was no necessity to buy the
bread needed to feed the assembled multitude nor to
secure it through the material market then in
existence.

More From Out Of The East. Part 2.
July 13, 2008.
This tries to make the point that the creator is
within us all.
........................................................
........................................................
He saw the op****tunity to prove to His disciples the
power of bread leavened or increased by the S-irit. How
often man in the mortal concept thinks as did Philip!
He was calculating as human consciousness is
calculating today from the visible supply on hand
thinking he had only so much bread or so much supply or
so much money with which to buy. Je--s recognized that
the one in C-rist Consciousness knows no limitation. He
then in Ch-ist Consciousness looked to G-d as the
source and creator of all and gave thanks for the power
and substance right at hand to fill every want. He then
broke and distributed through His disciples to those in
outer need until the need was supplied and there
remained twelve baskets over. J--us never depended on
the over-supply of another to fill His need nor the
need of another but He taught that our supply is right
at hand in Universal Substance where all supply exists
and all we need do is to create it or bring it forth.
Just so when Elisha multiplied the widow's oil. He did
not apply to someone having an over-abundance of oil
for had he done this the supply would have been
limited. He contacted the Universal and the only limit
to the supply was that all the vessels were filled. The
supply could have flowed on until this day had there
been vessels to receive it. 'This is not hypnotism.
None of you feel that you are in any way under a
hypnotic spell. Let me say that the only hypnotism is
the selfhypnotism of believing that each and every one
can not do the perfect works of G-d and create the
desired condition or thing. For is not the need itself
the desire to create? Instead of unfolding and creating
as Go- wills us to create you fold up in your little
shells and say `I can't' and you hypnotize yourselves
into actually believing that you are separate entities
apart from -od. You simply fall short of your perfect
creation or expression. You do not let G-d express
perfectly through you as it is His desire to do. Did
not Je--s the Great M-ster say `The works that I do ye
shall do also and greater works than these shall ye
do'? Was it not Je--s' true mission here on earth to
show that we as sons of Go- or man in his true estate
can create as perfectly and as harmoniously as Go-
does? When Je--s commanded the blind man to bathe
his eyes in the pool of Siloam was not this intended to
open the eyes of all? All were to see that Jes-- was
sent by the Father to show us that the Father intended
us to create exactly as He creates all are to do the
perfect work as J--us did by recognizing the Ch-ist in
himself and in all. 'I can go one step further. This
loaf I just received and held in my hand is consumed as
though burned by fire. What happened? I misused the
perfect law that brought forth my conception and
consumed that which I brought forth because of my
misuse or not using rightly or righteously the perfect
law which is as exact as music or mathematics or any
other so-called natural law. If I persisted in the
misuse of the perfect law it would consume not only
that which I create but would consume me the creator.
'Is the bread really destroyed? We will admit the form
is changed for in place of the loaf we have a small
amount of dust or ashes. Has it not in reality been
returned to the Universal Substance from which it
sprang? Is it not now in unmanifest form waiting to be
brought again into manifestation? Is this not the way
with all forms that go from our sight either by fire or
decay or in any other way? Do they not return to the
Universal Substance G-d from which they sprang? Is this
not the meaning of `What descends from he-ven must
ascend into hea-en'?'
A short time ago you saw ice formed without any
apparent cause as you perhaps think of it. Let me say
that that is the same as creating the bread. I can use
the law to obtain ice as well as bread just as long as
I use either as a benefit to mankind or as long as I am
working in living accord with the law or expressing as
God wishes all to express. It is good for all to make
bread or ice or any and all things desired and all must
press on to the stage at which they can do these
things. Can you not see that by using the highest law
the absolute law of -od you may bring forth that which
you need or conceive in mind as your highest idea and
thus please Go- more fully by manifesting more fully
knowing as Jes-- did that we are perfect Sons of Go-?
'Does not this suggest freedom from commercial bondage
as well as all other bondage? As I see it the
commercial bondage will in a few years become the
greatest bondage of all.
If it goes on at the rate it is now progressing it
will dominate man so-l and body and it cannot do
otherwise than consume itself and those that are
interested in it. There is no question but that the
first inception of commercialism was on a high
spir-tual plane but materialism was allowed to creep in
until the very power used to create is the power that
will consume just as the very power used to create will
always consume if not used rightly. Is not the pressing
of commercialism and limitations upon us crowding us on
to see that we must come up over or overcome these
conditions? Is not this done by simply realizing that
we are to do the perfect works of G-d to raise our
consciousness to the Ch-ist Co-sciousness? Is not this
what --sus taught us here on earth? Does not His whole
life exemplify this? 'My dear brothers do you not see
that in the beginning there was the Word and the Word
was with Go-? At this time everything to be formed
later was in unmanifest form in the Universal Mind
Substance or as expressed by some in chaos. This word
in the original was actuality. This word chaos is
misinterpreted to mean a turbulent or w-rring state
instead of the deep spi-itual state of actuality
always awaiting a definite creative spoken word through
which it can spring forth into manifest form. 'When Go-
principle desired to bring forth the world out of
Universal Mind Substance -od was quiet and
contemplative. In other words G-d saw an ideal world He
held in mind that substance of which the world was to
be formed a sufficient time to lower its vibration then
He spoke the Word and the world was formed or as we
might say Go- visualized a mental pattern or mold into
which could flow the substance needed to make the world
and it came forth a perfect form built upon the pattern
which was held in consciousness. 'All these things
might have been thought of by -od Infinite Power. He
might have wished during an indefinite time that they
were formed and made visible. Had not the definite
spoken word been put forth into the formless ether
nothing would have been created or brought forth into
visible form. In order to establish in visible results
the thought and desires of even an Infinite Omnipotent
Creator and bring orderly forms out of actuality it
took the definite positive `Let there be.' So must we
take the definite step. '-od is holding the ideal
perfect world in mind in every detail and it is bound
to come forth as a he-ven or perfect home where all His
children, all His creatures and all His creations may
dwell in peace and harmony. This is the perfect world
that G-d saw in the beginning and the one He is
thinking into existence right now and the time of its
manifestation lies in our acceptance of it. When we can
come to the one place and know that we are all one one
man and know that we are all members of Go-'s body as
much as one member of our body is a part of the whole
body then we are in and of -od's kingdom hea-en here on
earth now. 'To make this manifest realize that there is
nothing material in hea-en. All is spi-itual. Realize
that heav-n is a perfect state of consciousness a
perfect world here on earth now and all we need to do
is to accept it. It is here all about us waiting for us
to open the inner eye. Through that eye our bodies
shall be made light the light which is neither of the
sun nor moon but of the Father and the Father is right
here in the very innermost part of our being.
We must sufficiently realize that there is nothing
material that all is s-iritual. Then we must think of
that wonderful G-d-given spi-itual world which is right
here now if we can realize it. 'Do you not see that Go-
crated all in this way? Did not -od first become quiet
and contemplative and see the light? Then He said `Let
there be light' and it was so. In the same way He said
`Let there be a firmament' and it was so and likewise
with other creations He held each form or ideal
steadfast in consciousness then spoke the word and
the ideal was brought forth. Just so with man. Go- said
`Let us make man in Our image after Our likeness and
give him dominion over all.' -od all good created all
things good man the greatest and last with full
dominion over all. Then man saw only good and all was
good until man separated himself from G-d and saw
duality or two. Then he by his thought created two one
good and the other the opposite for if there were two
they would be opposite good and e-il. Thus ev-l came
through man's perfect power to express or bring forth
that which he gazed upon. If man had not seen evi- -vil
would have been given no power of expression.
Only the good would have been expressed and we would
be as perfect as Go- sees us today. Would not he-ven
always have been on earth as -od sees it and as we
must all see it to make it manifest? --sus had a
perfect right to say that He came from heav-n for did
not all come from heave- the great Universal Mind
Substance?
