| Lucifer's has triumphed directly, Lucifer indirectly. For the aim of the dark powers is to turn all | 6 THE HUMAN ROLE IN THE SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL UNIVERSES |
| so. All conscious and unconscious strivings of humankind aim at penetrating the heaviness of matter. What, after | 8 MEDIUMSHIP -- HOW TO CONTACT GOD'S SPIRIT WORLD |
| souls find their way to a medium, the aim should be to teach them rather than allow | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| you cannot see with your physical eye. The aim of spiritual development is to eliminate the lower | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| has to be met and completely explored. Your aim must be purification and perfection for its own | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| be envious, and so on. It is your aim, through spiritual development and progress, to reach a | 18 FREE WILL |
| love, another in wisdom, and so forth. The aim was to use the divine power that we | 22 SALVATION |
| in all religions, to attain the one great aim of final unity. We know that this unity | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| it does not matter. This should be your aim now. If you cannot do so because something | 28 COMMUNICATION WITH GOD -- DAILY REVIEW |

| of them; otherwise, emotions might hinder this person's aim. The will-type, like the reason-type, also misses an | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| either one work? ANSWER: Of course, the final aim is to find that which is divine in | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| help and an incentive and not the final aim. The final aim is self-finding and self-purification, for | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| incentive and not the final aim. The final aim is self-finding and self-purification, for only through that | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| it long for unity, which is the great aim in the Plan of Salvation. As long as | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |
| been unaware of so far, is always the aim and the question. I will now try to | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| you that there is nothing wrong with your aim, and yet there is in fact something wrong | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| motives from the bad ones in a particular aim, but also that you may not know what | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| when you revolted. When you search with this aim, you will sooner or later discover and actually | 47 THE WALL WITHIN |
| the selfish motives. You should certainly continue to aim for the right and good within yourself and | 47 THE WALL WITHIN |
| as God meant you to function. Therefore, your aim has to be to destroy the wall altogether | 47 THE WALL WITHIN |
| one. So let us be clear about our aim. We want to find that part in you | 49 OBSTACLES ON THE PATH: OLD STUFF, WRONG GUILT, AND WHO, ME? |
| people constantly inflict hardship on others with the aim of forcing their will and their compulsive childish | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |

| should recognize where you fall short of this aim, but that does not mean to give up | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| deviation and, therefore, brings you closer to the aim. The love of the law -- and therefore | 52 THE GOD-IMAGE |
| which does not have this clearly as its aim is unhealthy. This should be understood by all | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| Spirit World is often also sought with the aim of avoiding certain human difficulties that other, less | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |

| of the two sexes: man and woman. The aim of development is to find the way back | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| relationships -- and love is always the ultimate aim! But the relationship between the sexes also offers | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| and heretofore forbidden side in each. But this aim is mostly unclear, only vaguely felt, and even | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| with personal distortions. People often use the good aim as a screen to hide and foster erroneous | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| fear soon erect a separating wall again. The aim of development as such is to destroy these | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| the facade of a reasonable discussion, the conscious aim of which is supposed to straighten out disagreements | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| always lies in the direction, the motives, the aim, the whys and the hows. QUESTION: How do | 63 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| short, this is the unconscious concept: since desires aim for happiness and wanting happiness is selfish, I | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| from this particular parent becomes the most desirable aim, all the more so because love and acceptance | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
| child would wish it seems unattainable. The desired aim -- exclusive love and acceptance -- is confused | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
| unaware of what you want and that your aim is unrealizable because certain factors in it cancel | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
| causes, or if it is used with the aim of increased self- knowledge, then it can be | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |
| not say you have to make it your aim to become a good hypnotic subject. That in | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |

| benefit is cancelled out. It will be our aim to combine the two factors, so that one | 68 SUPPRESSION OF POSITIVE AND CREATIVE TENDENCIES - THOUGHT PROCESSES |
| helped by the other rather than hindered. The aim of the pathwork is not only to make | 68 SUPPRESSION OF POSITIVE AND CREATIVE TENDENCIES - THOUGHT PROCESSES |
| expense of selfishness is not the solution. Your aim is to become unselfish out of the conviction | 70 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| Then ask your emotions further, What is the aim? Do I really believe it is as bad | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |

| human being. Among other aspects, the purpose and aim in this work is to achieve a proper | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| terrain. I say this now with a particular aim. Once again you should investigate what your main | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| on the path to determine that wherever your aim is confused and your life-goal muddled with mixed | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| Check whether or not you have a clear-cut aim. Check your reason for living. What is your | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| vital importance that you understand that the ultimate aim of your spiritual path is to make the | 75 THE GREAT TRANSITION IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT FROM ISOLATION TO UNION |
| values are bound to change. Your purpose, your aim, and your concept of life are bound to | 75 THE GREAT TRANSITION IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT FROM ISOLATION TO UNION |
| is not an end in itself. If your aim is to stop short at resolving childhood conflicts | 75 THE GREAT TRANSITION IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT FROM ISOLATION TO UNION |
| resolution is not a means toward the greater aim: the transition from the self-centered state of isolation | 75 THE GREAT TRANSITION IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT FROM ISOLATION TO UNION |
| greater fulfillment. Only when you take the greater aim of union with all as your personal goal | 75 THE GREAT TRANSITION IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT FROM ISOLATION TO UNION |
| work of self-search while also envisaging the ultimate aim. Once you have reached a deeper understanding of | 75 THE GREAT TRANSITION IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT FROM ISOLATION TO UNION |
| part of the whole and sharing the common aim of bringing the entire universe to unity will | 75 THE GREAT TRANSITION IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT FROM ISOLATION TO UNION |
| believe that, then it would seem a higher aim to remain unpurified so as to be unhappy | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| courageous recognition of its existence. Know that the aim is a higher one, but know that you | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| and error, and therefore into unrest. The ultimate aim of this work of self-search is to free | 77 SELF-CONFIDENCE: ITS TRUE ORIGIN AND WHAT PROHIBITS IT |
| if you are prohibited from pursuing a certain aim. The child in you thinks that this prevents | 77 SELF-CONFIDENCE: ITS TRUE ORIGIN AND WHAT PROHIBITS IT |
| and how you have what it is you aim for, is a clear indication of the strength | 78 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| and harmony, or due to a more direct aim of a particular ambition, is not even the | 79 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| wrong. Quite the contrary. The healthy soul will aim for pleasure, but in a very different way | 85 DISTORTIONS OF THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION |
| reactions that are bound to destroy their very aim. The more they submit, the more the existing | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| concepts and ideas govern their origin and their aim. Such pseudo-solutions superimpose still other ones, along with | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| last year. In this coming phase the principal aim will be less a further theoretical understanding than | 87 THE NEXT PHASE ON THE PATH; QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| and produces just the reverse of your conscious aim. Again, this is symbolized in the story of | 87 THE NEXT PHASE ON THE PATH; QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| are resorted to as pseudo-solutions. When such an aim is actually realized, it becomes obvious that the | 87 THE NEXT PHASE ON THE PATH; QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| difficult to attain. You believe you have an aim, even though it may be wrong. But when | 87 THE NEXT PHASE ON THE PATH; QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| though it may be wrong. But when your aim is proven wrong, whether or not you consciously | 87 THE NEXT PHASE ON THE PATH; QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| -- directly contradict the spirituality that you all aim for. Then, and only then, will you fully | 88 RELIGION: TRUE AND FALSE |
| since immature emotions lead to unhappiness, your secondary aim becomes the avoidance of unhappiness. This creates the | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| wherein feelings will naturally change their direction, their aim, their intensity, their nature. But this can only | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| courses. Neither can you discriminate between a constructive aim for which it is necessary to express and | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| go all control, of not choosing the right aim, the right place, and the right people, of | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| let go because you lack discipline or an aim, and expose your negative emotions, that is indeed | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| of pressure and give them an outlet without aim or meaning, and the purposeful activity of reexperiencing | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| by them -- for that is the final aim of the mature and well-functioning person. I might | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| them without the discipline of having a specific aim, namely that of gaining insights about your inner | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| an idealized perfection that is not the true aim of growth. By the mere act of repeatedly | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| full life-experience under the well-sounding pretext that your aim is communion with God. If you want this | 91 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| there is no logical error. However, the unconscious aim and claim for gaining love through success cannot | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| harmony will gradually establish itself, and the inner aim will be directed toward that which he had | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| work, the more you will understand that the aim is to find your real self, your true | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| is that I, or we, or mankind, must aim to become oneself. Then this is a rule | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| do not think that is honest or the aim. This seems to me like being a machine | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| on life. You have to win! Your immediate aim has to be fulfilled. If not, you feel | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| person -- even if you have no other aim than using the other to elevate yourself, to | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| you really feel and want is your first aim. Sit back, so to speak, and allow your | 97 PERFECTIONISM OBSTRUCTS HAPPINESS -- MANIPULATION OF EMOTIONS |
| even if this means giving up a selfish aim, then that person creates a state of inner | 98 WISHFUL DAYDREAMS |
| Whenever you are on the defensive, your primary aim cannot be truth. When it comes to real | 101 THE DEFENSE |
| about others. In a strange way, the unconscious aim of human beings is to limit the human | 101 THE DEFENSE |
| by first calmly looking at it with the aim of understanding it. The dissolution of the cause | 106 SADNESS VERSUS DEPRESSION -- RELATIONSHIP |
| easily for most of you anyway. Let your aim be to voice where you do not emotionally | 108 FUNDAMENTAL GUILT FOR NOT LOVING -- OBLIGATIONS |
| manifest in each created being. It is the aim of evolution to liberate the higher self -- | 110 HOPE AND FAITH AND OTHER KEY CONCEPTS DISCUSSED IN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS |
| doubt. Whenever you struggle for an apparently healthy aim but register negative emotions, you will know that | 114 STRUGGLE: HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY |
| to take stock of oneself. It is our aim in this work to avoid futile struggle. For | 114 STRUGGLE: HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY |
| had to be the strongest, the most important aim, otherwise you could not have succeeded. But do | 114 STRUGGLE: HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY |
| painful as it may appear at times. The aim of finding, understanding, and resolving your hidden conflicts | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| lies embedded in all of you. If this aim is clearly defined, there will no longer be | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| center. But that is not its goal. Our aim is just that -- and it must solve | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| my message from this point of view. The aim of the spiritual unfoldment discussed in this lecture | 119 MOVEMENT, CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPERIENCE: PLEASURE, THE ESSENCE OF LIFE |
| or their womanhood. This must be the primary aim on which everything else is hinged either very | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| this unlimited power not in contradiction to the aim of this path which reiterates the necessity to | 126 CONTACT WITH THE LIFE FORCE |
| you want it because it seems the obvious aim is not enough. Leaving the desire in a | 129 WINNER VERSUS LOSER: INTERPLAY BETWEEN THE SELF AND CREATIVE FORCES |
| full inner commitment. The universal forces have one aim, and that is wholeness, health, unfoldment, and expression | 129 WINNER VERSUS LOSER: INTERPLAY BETWEEN THE SELF AND CREATIVE FORCES |
| liberation, bliss, is blocked. A further fundamental human aim is pleasure supreme. All these aspects -- eternal | 130 FINDING TRUE ABUNDANCE BY GOING THROUGH YOUR FEAR |
| this context. When you have a desire or aim which is legitimate and realistic, yet remains unfulfilled | 131 INTERACTION BETWEEN EXPRESSION AND IMPRESSION |
| become specifically aware of this connection. Whenever an aim for self-expression and fulfillment stubbornly remains unfulfilled, a | 131 INTERACTION BETWEEN EXPRESSION AND IMPRESSION |
| a liberating activity as the pathwork -- whose aim is to attain full selfhood in every possible | 131 INTERACTION BETWEEN EXPRESSION AND IMPRESSION |
| to prevent its being refilled with untruth. The aim of this intercourse between your outer mind and | 131 INTERACTION BETWEEN EXPRESSION AND IMPRESSION |
| that keep the two separated. That is the aim. So long as people harbor false ideas, the | 131 INTERACTION BETWEEN EXPRESSION AND IMPRESSION |
| and potential. When I speak of the ultimate aim of perfection, of limitless power, of pleasure supreme | 132 THE FUNCTION OF THE EGO IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE REAL SELF |
| even on such a path as this whose aim is to attain selfhood, there are many snares | 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF |
| their true significance, is the art and the aim of this pathwork. If your aim is finished | 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF |
| and the aim of this pathwork. If your aim is finished perfection, you still find yourself caught | 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF |
| perfectionism, which hinders your progress. But if your aim becomes to know what is it you really | 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF |
| at this moment, then you have a realistic aim leading to instant release, truth, harmony, and dynamic | 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF |
| true nature of this power is the ultimate aim of human spiritual development. The spirit knows that | 134 THE CONCEPT OF EVIL |

| goal that is only secondary, while the primary aim of the personality is in fact destructive. Covering | 138 THE HUMAN PREDICAMENT OF DESIRE FOR, AND FEAR OF, CLOSENESS |
| fact destructive. Covering up the more powerful destructive aim can be subtle but it nevertheless has a | 138 THE HUMAN PREDICAMENT OF DESIRE FOR, AND FEAR OF, CLOSENESS |
| is given you. Even though your childish, selfish aim is to receive as much as possible and | 138 THE HUMAN PREDICAMENT OF DESIRE FOR, AND FEAR OF, CLOSENESS |
| as you are? Do you cultivate such an aim by expressing this desire, particularly in moments of | 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY |
| why they feel what they feel. Your entire aim must now be to discover what actually is | 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY |
| anyone could be in unity about any negative aim. Life, in its essential and profound character, cannot | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| feel and what you want and what you aim for makes it impossible to go in any | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| you are on this path. What is your aim in life? Do you live just to make | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| meaning of this. For as long as you aim solely to remove certain effects of identifying with | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| who are helpers, very clearly to define your aim. What is your aim? How far do you | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| clearly to define your aim. What is your aim? How far do you wish to go? Do | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| I recapitulate them briefly: (1) What is your aim in life? What is your aim on this | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| is your aim in life? What is your aim on this path? How far do you wish | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| Where have I lost the clarity of the aim? And where have I disconnected the aim from | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| the aim? And where have I disconnected the aim from where I am at this moment because | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| at least in terms of your desire and aim, if not in actual fact. The further consequence | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| mood of the moment. On both counts your aim is to avoid contact with yourself. Both being | 150 SELF-LIKING: THE CONDITION FOR UNIVERSAL STATE OF BLISS |
| could also mean a very destructive intent or aim. The avoidance of a feared possibility implies negative | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| of a genuine need or a truly constructive aim. You feel as though something were holding you | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| life filled with positive experience and pleasure. You aim to avoid the threat of expressing your own | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| was freely operative within you. It is our aim to bring out that real self completely. In | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| inner being, of the real self, is the aim of life itself. Then you come into your | 162 THREE LEVELS OF REALITY FOR INNER GUIDANCE |
| far you decide to follow it, that the aim of the path is the total realization of | 165 EVOLUTIONARY PHASES IN RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN REALMS OF FEELINGS, REASON, AND WILL |
| out of context for you. Every living creature's aim is to free the eternal spirit. This aim | 166 PERCEIVING, REACTING, EXPRESSING |
| aim is to free the eternal spirit. This aim may be unconscious in many, but that does | 166 PERCEIVING, REACTING, EXPRESSING |
| motivated by love and trust in him; her aim will not be to experience ecstasy by uniting | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| Such people enslave themselves -- with the secret aim of thus enslaving the other person. Outgoingness, if | 171 SPIRITUAL LAWS |
| meditation, every self-examination and self- confrontation, should always aim to eliminate false concepts and illusion, and the | 173 BASIC ATTITUDES AND PRACTICES TO OPEN THE CENTERS - RIGHT ATTITUDE TOWARD FRUSTRATION |
| integral part of it. That must be the aim. Pleasure is, at one and the same time | 177 PLEASURE -- THE FULL PULSATION OF LIFE |
| you truly aspire to, whether or not this aim is articulated, if you bypass this confrontation. This | 182 PROCESS OF MEDITATION (MEDITATION FOR THREE VOICES: EGO, LOWER SELF, HIGHER SELF) |
| You have to take great care and deliberately aim to avoid this, without, however, allowing the destructive | 182 PROCESS OF MEDITATION (MEDITATION FOR THREE VOICES: EGO, LOWER SELF, HIGHER SELF) |
| over again. Since eruption, breakdown, and crisis always aim at discontinuing old ways of operating and creating | 183 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF CRISIS |
| fear is ignored, the problem becomes worse. Our aim on this path is precisely the knowing and | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| in its original form. This must be the aim, my friends. As long as you try to | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| of your being. We have had precisely this aim ever since we started working on this path | 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW |
| it is certainly possible to realize it. Our aim is to find the core of your real | 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED |
| The help will come. This is the all-important aim, out of which everything else follows. As you | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |

| Now let me shed some light on the aim of this pathwork before I describe the process | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |
| this pathwork before I describe the process. The aim is to unify these three levels of consciousness | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |

| how meditation is best used to fulfill the aim of this particular pathwork: the unification of the | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| must first be dealt with. Therefore your meditative aim may have to be altered along the way | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| is. If commitment to the self is the aim, then you cannot fail to realize yourself. You | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| kernel is in every one of you. The aim of living is to realize this, to know | 200 THE COSMIC FEELING |
| be anything more worthwhile? This is the very aim of this path; you will no longer be | 201 DEMAGNETIZING NEGATIVE FORCE FIELDS -- PAIN OF GUILT |
| will be, not less. It is creation's overall aim to bridge this gap and establish everywhere the | 203 INTERPENETRATION OF THE DIVINE LIGHT SPARK INTO THE OUTER REGIONS - MIND EXERCISES |
| of creation, this is evolution, this is the aim. Can you see how you, every one of | 203 INTERPENETRATION OF THE DIVINE LIGHT SPARK INTO THE OUTER REGIONS - MIND EXERCISES |
| bring you into other emphases and concerns. The aim of this path is not to cure you | 204 WHAT IS THE PATH? |
| spiritual consciousness necessitates a different approach, but the aim is always the same. However, there is one | 204 WHAT IS THE PATH? |
| of Creation. Whatever term you use, the final aim of all split-off beings is to reunify the | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| manipulative interpretations of the pain. Such interpretations only aim to annul the pain, whereas letting the pain | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| both anchored in spiritual truth and when you aim in that direction. When spiritual reality is forever | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| direction. When spiritual reality is forever the ultimate aim, you also know that there is only one | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| to share and exchange them. If you always aim for the inner truth, the spiritual truth, then | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| Reaching the spiritual self must be one's primary aim if total fusion is to exist. It is | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
