Therapeutic Affirmations
Affirmation- Nature of Creation
Matter does not exist in the way we often conceive it; nevertheless, it
does exist as a cosmic delusion. To dispel delusion requires a
particular method. You can't cure a drug addict in a moment. Material
consciousness possesses man through a regulation of delusion, and he can
not banish it besides by studying and following the alternative
regulation, that of truth.
Spirit, by a collection of processes of materialization, turned matter;
hence matter proceeds from and can't be different from its trigger,
Spirit. Matter is partially expression of Spirit, the Infinite appearing
as finite, the Limitless as limited. But since matter is only Spirit in
a delusive manifestation, matter per se is nonexistent.
Consciousness and Matter
At first of creation, the hitherto unmanifested Spirit projected two
natures --- one, consciousness, and the opposite, matter. They are Its
two vibratory expressions. Consciousness is a finer, and matter a
grosser, vibration of the none transcendental Spirit.
Consciousness is the vibration of Its subjective side, and matter is the
vibration of Its objective aspect. Spirit, as Cosmic Consciousness, is
probably immanent in goal vibratory matter, and manifests Itself
subjectively because the consciousness present in all types of creation,
reaching Its highest expression in the human thoughts with its countless
ramifications of thoughts, emotions, will, and imagination.
The difference between matter and Spirit is in the rate of vibration ---
a difference of degree, not of kind. This level could also be higher
understood by the following example. Although all vibrations are
qualitatively alike, vibrations from sixteen to twenty thousand cycles per
second are gross sufficient to be audible to man's sense of hearing,
however vibrations beneath sixteen or over twenty thousand are typically
inaudible. There isn't a essential distinction between audible and
inaudible vibrations, although a relative distinction does exist.
By the power of Maya, cosmic illusion, the Creator has brought about the
manifestations of matter to look so distinct and particular that to the
human mind they appear unrelated in any approach to Spirit.
Affirmation-Thought Is the Subtlest Vibration
Throughout the gross vibration of flesh is the high-quality vibration of
the cosmic present, the life power; and permeating both flesh and life
power is probably the most subtle vibration, that of consciousness. The
vibrations of consciousness are so subtle that they can't be detected by
any material instrument; solely consciousness can comprehend
consciousness. Human beings are aware of the myriad vibrations of
consciousness issuing from different human beings --- expressed by
phrase, act, look, gesture, silence, perspective, and so on.
Every man is stamped with the vibratory signature of his personal state
of consciousness, and emanates a characteristic affect on individuals
and things. For example, a room in which a man lives is permeated with
his thought vibrations. These may be distinctly felt by other
individuals if they possess the required diploma of sensitivity.
Man's ego (his sense of I-ness; the distorted mortal reflection of the
immortal soul) cognizes consciousness instantly; and cognizes matter
(the human physique and all different objects in creation) not directly,
by mental processes and thru sense perceptions. That is, the ego is all
the time aware of possessing consciousness; but the ego isn't aware of
matter, even of the physique it inhabits, till it takes considered it.
Thus a person in deep concentration on any topic is aware of his mind
however not of his body.
Affirmation-Man's Experiences within the Dream State
All of the experiences of man's waking state may be duplicated in his
dream state of consciousness. Within the dream state a person may find
himself strolling joyously in a lovely backyard and then seeing the dead
body of a friend. He is grief-stricken, sheds tears, suffers from
headache, and feels his coronary heart throb painfully. Maybe a
rainstorm blows up all of a sudden and he turns into wet and cold. Then
he wakes up and laughs at his illusory dream experiences.
What is the difference between the experiences of a dreaming man
(experiences of matter as displayed in the bodies of himself and his
pal, the backyard, and so on; and experiences of consciousness as
displayed in his emotions of pleasure and grief) and the experiences of
the identical man in the waking state? Awareness of matter and of
consciousness is present in each cases.
Man is ready to create both matter and consciousness in an illusory
dream world; due to this fact it should not be difficult for him to
comprehend that Spirit, utilizing the ability of Maya, has created for
man a dream world of "life" or aware existence that in essence is as
false (as a result of ephemeral, ever altering) as are man's experiences
in the dream state.
Affirmation-Maya or Cosmic Illusion
The outstanding world operates under maya, the regulation of duality or
oppositional states; it is thus an unreal world that veils the reality
of the Divine Oneness and Unchangeableness. Man in his ethical facet
desires of dualities and contrasts --- life and dying, health and
disease, happiness and sorrow; however when he awakens in soul
consciousness all dualities disappear and he is aware of himself as the
eternal and blissful Spirit.
Affirmation- Needs of Erring Humanity
For erring humanity each medical and psychological help are important.
The prevalence of the mind over material aids is undeniable, however the
extra restricted healing energy of meals and herbs and drugs can also be
undeniable. When using mental strategies, there isn't a have to scorn
all physical programs of remedy, for the latter are the result of
investigation into God's materials laws.
So long as one's material consciousness of the physique exists,
medicines need not be entirely distributed with; but as soon as man will
increase his understanding of the immaterial organ of flesh, his
perception in the healing power of medication disappears: he sees that
each one ailments has its roots within the mind.
Some persons, in each East and West, fanatically deny the existence of
matter while they are still engrossed in flesh consciousness they really
feel famished in the event that they miss a meal.
The state of realization wherein the physique and mind, demise and life,
disease and health all appear equally delusive is the one state during
which we can actually say that we don't imagine within the existence of
matter.
Affirmation-Human and Divine Consciousness
By Maya and man's consequent ignorance of his soul, human consciousness
is remoted from Cosmic Consciousness. The thoughts of man is topic to
vary and limitation, but Cosmic Consciousness is free from all
restrictions and isn't concerned in experiences of duality (dying and
life, disease and health, fleeting sorrow and fleeting joy, and so
forth). In the Divine Mind an unchangeable perception of Bliss is ever
present.
The process of liberating human consciousness consists in training it by
examine, affirmations, concentration, and meditation to turn its
consideration away from the vibrations of the gross physique with its
ceaseless fluctuations of thought and emotion, and to feel the subtler
and extra steady vibrations of life vitality and of upper mental states.
Affirmation-Depend on the Divine Power Within
Persons whose material consciousness is robust, i.e., these accustomed
to considering of the "self" because the bodily physique, have to be
progressively guided away from dependence on medication or other outer
aids and taught to rely more and more on the Divine Energy within.
