| Wandering...................4 | |
| some of my words, perhaps your mind was wandering, and when you read it, the meaning will | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| evaluate. When you say that your mind is wandering, you hardly realize the significance of this statement | 68 SUPPRESSION OF POSITIVE AND CREATIVE TENDENCIES - THOUGHT PROCESSES |
| may wander elsewhere. But if you follow the wandering thought through and examine the content and climate | 205 ORDER AS A UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE |
| The former is a tuning out, a vague wandering of the mind that may lead to mindless | 256 INNER SPACE, FOCUSED EMPTINESS |
| Want........................1606 | |
| so humans get confused -- they who actually want so much to be in truth. They no | 1 THE SEA OF LIFE |
| further tasks will be found. You human beings want to be happy, all of you, and of | 1 THE SEA OF LIFE |
| feelings, and often even in your thinking. You want the best for yourself and are unhappy over | 1 THE SEA OF LIFE |
| to follow their soul's yearning. Although they truly want to do what is right and just, they | 2 DECISIONS AND TESTS |
| God for this willpower, for basically I do want what is good, I do love God. And | 3 CHOOSING YOUR DESTINY -- THE WILL TO CHANGE |
| -- the fact is, you do not really want to know. This is why the first step | 3 CHOOSING YOUR DESTINY -- THE WILL TO CHANGE |
| fulfilled our task. When I say we, I want to make it clear that I am not | 3 CHOOSING YOUR DESTINY -- THE WILL TO CHANGE |
| is more complex, and this is what I want to talk about now. When people deviate in | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| respect. Do not misunderstand me. I do not want to imply that a person who has this | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| not always the same. I do not even want to imply that such a person may be | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| love away from someone else whom you may want to love even more, and you have the | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| the more it multiplies itself. I do not want to be misunderstood here either: I am not | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| of longing, sadness, nostalgia, or whatever else you want to call them. Only you can look into | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| not be egocentric or violate your personality. I want you to observe that there are always two | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| is a childish quality, because it means to want the impossible, like a child. An immature person | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| live a solitary life because you do not want to give love, out of anxiety and over-sensitivity | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| pretenses, and to change your inner reality. I want now to touch on something else, because it | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| run away from real problems you do not want to confront; on the other you find in | 4 WORLD WEARINESS |
| blessings. My dear ones, God's spirit world would want nothing more than to help you grow spiritually | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| we cannot force. First you will have to want to reach perfection, and open the door through | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| way out. Even when people love God and want the good, they so often do not see | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| not be able to reach that which they want. Even if they reach it, its effect and | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| out, become shallow, and eventually dissolve. If you want happiness just for yourself, then you will not | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| will say, But of course I do not want happiness only for myself. I will be very | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| you may deceive yourself; here too you can want something with your mind, having already learnt one | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| the sake of another? Ask yourself: Do I want happiness for my own sake, or is this | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| just as I cannot fool myself. True, I want to be happy. But also when I obtain | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| But also when I obtain this happiness, I want to maintain it by becoming a connecting link | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| Then you seek happiness not only because you want it; on the contrary, the goal will be | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| once you have decided, I will no longer want to be the ultimate goal, but rather a | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| yet understand them or because they do not want to comprehend them for unhealthy emotional reasons -- | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| prevailing over the minor injustice. He will not want to see this. But this is how he | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| way or another to everybody. If you really want to find out whether this is so in | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| hidden place, or even quite obviously? Do you want to shrug these reactions off with a vague | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| what is best for their path. Now I want to switch to a subject which has been | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| they are receiving -- but they do not want it. They are too lazy, or they are | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| you the way. Test yourselves how much you want happiness, harmony, light, love, freedom. Then see that | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| of it -- not in the way they want to, but as God wills. And that is | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| center of your awareness. As long as you want your own happiness without being a link in | 5 HAPPINESS FOR YOURSELF OR HAPPINESS AS A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF LIFE |
| it. I have said it before, but I want to repeat it: Every human being, not only | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| speak to you through a medium, they never want to turn you into some puppet who is | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| evolved spirit of God does not need or want power, does not need or want flattery. An | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| need or want power, does not need or want flattery. An evolved spirit wants what God wants | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| will ask you after the session whether you want the contact or not. I may not always | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| I could give you a course, if you want it. But tell me honestly if you don't | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| in existence in some form? ANSWER: First I want to mention again that there is hardly any | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| So, to come back to your question, I want to explain to you first how it really | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| close to God but about whom I don't want to speak here. Let this suffice for the | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| activity of the instinct -- or whatever you want to call it? Such an inner power can | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| Be open to this. Do not say, I want it in such and such a way; just | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| staying open will also be strengthened. Now I want to give you some general instructions. There are | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| in which these contacts feel like sacrifice; they want contact only with kindred spirits and avoid those | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| because that idea suits you and you don't want to give up control. The issue is -- | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| it; and so often they do not even want to think about it. How much happiness, how | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| be very humble, while in reality they only want to take the easy way out by telling | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| but a form of pride and arrogance. You want to be better than you actually are. You | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| to be better than you actually are. You want to be perfect without taking the trouble to | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| and walk the path of perfection will also want to free themselves from all imperfection. And when | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| too intensely on one thing; that is to want something in the wrong way. Again, it is | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| Again, it is easy to misunderstand this. To want the overall goal with a healthy will is | 7 ASKING FOR HELP AND HELPING OTHERS |
| others without entering this path herself. I do want to make the point, though, that spirit contact | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| unpleasant, saying, Father, your will be done, I want the truth about myself and will not recoil | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| you need to fulfill some other conditions. I want to add that the good already created by | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| Exactly the kind of proof which skeptical people want to see can be also furnished by God's | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| one can explain this to the people who want proof -- then the proofs coming from God's | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| can be easily misused by those who don't want to look at a sensitive area hidden from | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| be it personal or through a medium. I want to make it quite clear to you that | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| cannot bring through more now. QUESTION: What I want to ask is difficult and perhaps stupid. ANSWER | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| to arrange it differently. For you personally I want to add the following: Try to apply the | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| the image of God, to create whatever I want. But then it is no longer God's will | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| Then I spoke in general terms. Tonight I want to shed a different light on it and | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| from the unresolved, negative state. Ask for it, want it -- and suddenly, as you meditate on | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| even if only unconsciously, but I no longer want to do so. Ask God to help you | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| have done so many times before. But I want to emphasize again how difficult it is for | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| convince yourself of the contrary, just because you want it that way? Try to pinpoint in which | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| for forgiveness with this healthy repentance and really want to change, you will feel that you are | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| real guilt, partly because in your conceit you want to see yourself better than you are, and | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| which cover up faults which they do not want to see because they are not yet ready | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| you lack in this respect. If you really want it and do not wallow in your resentments | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| given to you. You human beings do not want to understand that you cannot do it by | 9 PRAYER AND MEDITATION -- THE LORD'S PRAYER |
| is to explain this with words, I still want to try to lead you to further insight | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| the other way around. Many people do not want to acknowledge this truth. It is easier to | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| can imagine. You will get exactly what you want. If you want happiness and are willing to | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| will get exactly what you want. If you want happiness and are willing to pay the price | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| receive it. By the same token, if people want with all their hearts nothing else but God's | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| God will help you further. And now I want to devote time to your questions. QUESTION: I | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| God is in a particular situation, if you want to discover unconscious trends and emotions, or if | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| even if you should hear what you least want to hear. If you overcome the natural resistance | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| If you are patient and you do not want only one particular answer, or if you are | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| or the other. As I have said, both want the same thing. The point is interesting only | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| be connected with this? And if you really want to find out this particular truth, if nothing | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| is quite an important point. Often, human beings want to be on this path, but their entire | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| can find many answers themselves if they really want to. But aside from answers that pertain to | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| is not true. God's spirit world does not want this kind of contact because it tempts the | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| close myself against it? Why did I not want to see the true meaning of life, fulfilling | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| anything at all? You human beings do not want to make the effort involved in developing yourselves | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| and thus disregard the discrepancy between what they want to think and what they actually still think | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| to do so, as much as you may want to. The change can be brought about only | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| to your thoughts or to the way you want your thoughts and feelings to be. You have | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| that both the higher and the lower self want happiness, but each in a different way. Your | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| accept intellectually the truth that God did not want you to have difficulties in the first place | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| path of perfection, or psychological therapy, whatever you want to call it. I want to give you | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| therapy, whatever you want to call it. I want to give you the spiritual angle on this | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| beforehand with all the participants the questions they want to ask. I suggest that you then sift | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| As it is now, some friends who may want very much to ask questions often hesitate because | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| they are shy. They think someone else may want to ask a question and they do not | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| feelings for whatever motive. Say to God, I want truth, including the temporary truth about me, about | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| Say to yourself: This is the way I want to think and feel, but in this or | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| so many of you lack because you all want to be perfect and to be on the | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| a kind of pride, coupled with laziness. You want to be there without getting there. Again, your | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| getting there. Again, your lower self does not want to pay the price. So learn humility; learn | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| many facets and not only the facets you want to see. This whole process is extremely healthy | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| I am, but that is the way I want to be, and to bridge the discrepancy I | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| tones and scents. For example, a person may want something selfish and because he or she does | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| selfish and because he or she does not want to admit that this is selfishness, begins to | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| path, the spiritual path. Many people do not want to think that deeply; instead they react emotionally | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| done only by the person himself. If you want to walk this path and be cured of | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| ANSWER: Everybody can eradicate it, if they really want to do so. It is only a question | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| recognized in the spirit world, if you truly want to purify yourself, not merely rid yourself of | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
