| You can easily know the answer if you wish to know it. You can easily determine if | 218 THE EVOLUTIONARY PROCESS |
| could I see differently? The second law I wish to speak about is making connections. When connections | 218 THE EVOLUTIONARY PROCESS |
| harsh judgment against yourself that you do not wish to acknowledge to the extent it exists, the | 219 CHRISTMAS MESSAGE -- MESSAGE TO THE CHILDREN |
| doors. You should be aware that you deliberately wish to keep the doors closed. Always assume that | 219 CHRISTMAS MESSAGE -- MESSAGE TO THE CHILDREN |
| you that there is something you do not wish to see and that makes you anxious. So | 219 CHRISTMAS MESSAGE -- MESSAGE TO THE CHILDREN |
| it is a signpost pointing to where you wish to remain ignorant about yourself. Whenever you are | 219 CHRISTMAS MESSAGE -- MESSAGE TO THE CHILDREN |
| children can gain the freedom you so much wish to have, you so much envy grown-up people | 219 CHRISTMAS MESSAGE -- MESSAGE TO THE CHILDREN |
| may say, I know I cannot, do not wish to change. So why should I want to | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| proud of their doubting because they do not wish to appear gullible in the eyes of others | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| persisting in the negativity. Yet you do not wish to abandon it. You are puzzled by your | 222 TRANSFORMATION OF THE LOWER SELF |
| specific area where the lower self does not wish to budge. It is therefore not enough to | 222 TRANSFORMATION OF THE LOWER SELF |
| where you need it most. If you really wish to attune to it and hear it, you | 224 CREATIVE EMPTINESS |
| But you need to be aware of your wish to misuse the group in order to avoid | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |

| this inner movement as never before. If you wish, you can tune into this force and truly | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| through your commitment to be in truth, to wish to grow and change. That, of course, is | 226 APPROACH TO SELF -- SELF-FORGIVENESS WITHOUT CONDONING THE LOWER SELF |
| different forms, but whatever they may be, I wish to address you, first of all, on the | 226 APPROACH TO SELF -- SELF-FORGIVENESS WITHOUT CONDONING THE LOWER SELF |
| self on the arduous path of self-purification. I wish to discuss this now in detail, for there | 226 APPROACH TO SELF -- SELF-FORGIVENESS WITHOUT CONDONING THE LOWER SELF |
| the way with yourself. In this lecture I wish to give you another vision of the growth | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| are also many human beings who can and wish to widen and deepen their consciousness according to | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| you resent and fear the very authority you wish to exploit. Love can flower only in a | 229 WOMAN AND MAN IN THE NEW AGE |
| it, which cannot happen if you do not wish to love. No one else can give you | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| practically every day of your life, if you wish to live fully and not in self-limitation and | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| you a black wall that you fear and wish to avoid. Avoiding it prevents your ever-flowing movement | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| GUIDE: It will indeed be so if you wish it with all your heart. And I say | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| attitudes that you create negative experience. Tonight I wish to give you a new realization about a | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| choice which one of the many roads you wish to travel, the road of defeatism, denial, negative | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| Now, my friends, here is a pitfall I wish to warn against. The courage to believe in | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| the less desirable your life becomes. Increasingly you wish to escape from it by spinning daydreams that | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| abundance is available only to the degree you wish to squander yourself into life, giving as generously | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| inner riches to this whole process as you wish to receive from life's abundance. You encounter the | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| thought. The thought might be: I do not wish to set myself above others. If a part | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| attitude about the possibility of not getting the wish fulfilled in this particular form would be somewhat | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| infinitely richer than the mere fulfillment of your wish could ever have been. QUESTION: In reference to | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| I am in all your thoughts, if you wish to hear Me. I am in all you | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| I am in all you see, if you wish to see Me. I am in all the | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| in all the words you speak, if you wish Me to express through you. I am in | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| do not love and if you do not wish to learn to love, you cannot fulfill your | 237 LEADERSHIP -- THE ART OF TRANSCENDING FRUSTRATION |
| when you are not impartial and do not wish to be. We may state it thus: you | 237 LEADERSHIP -- THE ART OF TRANSCENDING FRUSTRATION |
| Leadership means constant risk. If you do not wish to take the risk, and are full of | 237 LEADERSHIP -- THE ART OF TRANSCENDING FRUSTRATION |
| original anxiety. So my suggestion is: when you wish to rush, hold still and allow yourself to | 239 CHRISTMAS LECTURE 1975 |
| are willing to give you help, if you wish it. If you do not wish it, it | 239 CHRISTMAS LECTURE 1975 |
| if you wish it. If you do not wish it, it is your responsibility, and let it | 239 CHRISTMAS LECTURE 1975 |
| toward a loving state. If you do not wish to love, if you do not purposely express | 240 ASPECTS OF THE ANATOMY OF LOVE: SELF-LOVE, STRUCTURE, FREEDOM |
| do not submit. Submission is the price you wish to pay in the hope of attaining self-love | 240 ASPECTS OF THE ANATOMY OF LOVE: SELF-LOVE, STRUCTURE, FREEDOM |
| deny your self-hate you rebel against others and wish for impossible false freedoms. In this condition the | 240 ASPECTS OF THE ANATOMY OF LOVE: SELF-LOVE, STRUCTURE, FREEDOM |
| the fact that you hold and do not wish to give, that you are ungenerous and, at | 241 DYNAMICS OF MOVEMENT AND RESISTANCE TO ITS NATURE |
| as similar to you in kind. You cannot wish to move freely and trustingly, to release your | 241 DYNAMICS OF MOVEMENT AND RESISTANCE TO ITS NATURE |
| They lead and guide those who do not wish to take on the chores of such a | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| simultaneously resent those who lead. Nor do they wish to assume the risks of exposure, criticism, slander | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| fewer rights and privileges. It is as you wish. If you do not wish the higher task | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| is as you wish. If you do not wish the higher task of assuming the responsibilities to | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| to indulge. The weak ruler who does not wish to be bothered and dispenses with this necessary | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| you react toward those attitudes in you that wish to cheat, that want to get the results | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| to get the results without earning them, that wish to have it as easy as possible and | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| But so is the second category which I wish to discuss, a part of the scheme of | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| a divine channel. So those of you who wish to do this in every issue that comes | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| yourself, nor can you fulfill your task. I wish to discuss this topic in connection with cause | 245 CAUSE AND EFFECT ON VARIOUS LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| has always created a sense of threat. You wish to hold on to the old familiar approach | 246 TRADITION: ITS DIVINE AND DISTORTED ASPECTS |
| been the promised Messiah, because they did not wish to abdicate their negative self-serving power. Once the | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| it can always be resolved when you really wish to be in truth and when you go | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| need to find those areas where you may wish to annihilate the other for being different, thus | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| steps on your path. In this lecture I wish to instruct you again about certain realities and | 248 THREE PRINCIPLES OF THE FORCES OF EVIL -- PERSONIFICATION OF EVIL |
| But you must make the decision whether you wish the Christ light to shine on your way | 248 THREE PRINCIPLES OF THE FORCES OF EVIL -- PERSONIFICATION OF EVIL |
| of Christ your way, or whether you unwittingly wish to submerge yourself in thoughts of untruth and | 248 THREE PRINCIPLES OF THE FORCES OF EVIL -- PERSONIFICATION OF EVIL |
| the worst light. The reason why you secretly wish this can only be explored when you no | 248 THREE PRINCIPLES OF THE FORCES OF EVIL -- PERSONIFICATION OF EVIL |
| cobwebs in your mind. The specific pain I wish to discuss, that is so important to be | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| acting, your perceptions and your reactions, than you wish to admit. It is this very fear that | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| you overcome the resistance to seeing how you wish to disconnect from the consequences of lower-self attitudes | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| goes far beyond your earth selves. Now I wish to speak about the meaning of grace. For | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| they are by no means mutually exclusive. I wish to give you some perspective on this subject | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| life in general, you forget this key. I wish you would all choose to remember using it | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| you are already all that you could ever wish to be. You already possess the states of | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| to keep your budget smaller than you may wish; it may mean that you, as a community | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| to evolve on your earth sphere. Today I wish to explore the concepts of privacy and secrecy | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| it will not be difficult to discern the wish to hide something that is unpalatable to someone | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| something that is unpalatable to someone. Either you wish to keep something hidden from others, or another | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| may react to what is hidden, and they wish to avoid this. In other words, they wish | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| wish to avoid this. In other words, they wish the respect and love that they might not | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| are not in truth, but you do not wish to admit this. However, accusations that are made | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| because of their own negative motives; they may wish to uncover something they can use against you | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| to let God inspire you. If you sincerely wish to reveal yourself, the Holy Spirit will inspire | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| seek new solutions. Before ending this lecture, I wish to speak more about the third factor, the | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |
| this before. I mention it now because I wish to show you more specifically how to attain | 253 CONTINUE YOUR STRUGGLE AND CEASE ALL STRUGGLE |
| how can I say to you, do not wish for happiness as opposed to suffering, life as | 253 CONTINUE YOUR STRUGGLE AND CEASE ALL STRUGGLE |
| is a question of just that. Do you wish to be open to your surrounding universe and | 253 CONTINUE YOUR STRUGGLE AND CEASE ALL STRUGGLE |
| of justifying faith? Do you only see, perhaps wish to see in anger and bitterness, the out-of-context | 253 CONTINUE YOUR STRUGGLE AND CEASE ALL STRUGGLE |
| surrender to a teacher in any field you wish to learn. If basic surrender is lacking, no | 254 SURRENDER |
| rule applies to the most mundane things you wish to learn. A process learned merely as a | 254 SURRENDER |
| to do, the more desperate is the inner wish not to govern one's own life, not to | 254 SURRENDER |
| other person as more perfect because you still wish to abdicate self-responsibility, or whether you want to | 254 SURRENDER |
| surrender and want to justify it. You may wish to see the other person as worse for | 254 SURRENDER |
| hand, a part of you that does not wish to be a fully grown, self-creating entity. It | 254 SURRENDER |
| is never without your full consent. Sometimes you wish to undertake it and your spiritual advisers do | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| you abhor real autonomy, that you do not wish to take full responsibility for your life, your | 256 INNER SPACE, FOCUSED EMPTINESS |
| of total surrender to God becomes confusing. The wish to surrender to the false authority figure who | 256 INNER SPACE, FOCUSED EMPTINESS |
| surface. They hate and accuse each other. They wish each other the worst and want to harm | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| some temporary manifestations of your lower selves. I wish to discuss now another manifestation of the new | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| eliminate and replace. This unwillingness clearly implies the wish to continue living a lie. Dedication to the | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| all doors. This is where your spirit friends wish you to improve and make of your beautiful | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| can make you do what you do not wish and choose to do. This would go directly | 258 PERSONAL CONTACT WITH JESUS CHRIST-POSITIVE AGGRESSION-REAL MEANING OF SALVATION |
