| God only to the extent that you have faith in yourself. If your lack of faith in | 110 HOPE AND FAITH AND OTHER KEY CONCEPTS DISCUSSED IN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS |

| of faith in yourself is substituted by a faith in God, God becomes a parody, an opiate | 110 HOPE AND FAITH AND OTHER KEY CONCEPTS DISCUSSED IN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS |
| becomes a parody, an opiate, a falsity. And faith in yourself is possible only if your real | 110 HOPE AND FAITH AND OTHER KEY CONCEPTS DISCUSSED IN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS |
| from real as well as false guilts. If faith in God hinges on all these unrecognized attitudes | 110 HOPE AND FAITH AND OTHER KEY CONCEPTS DISCUSSED IN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS |
| is without foundation and not genuine. The ungenuine faith may, on the surface, appear very much like | 110 HOPE AND FAITH AND OTHER KEY CONCEPTS DISCUSSED IN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS |

| out of genuine conviction and inner experience; false faith covers fear, insecurity, childish needs. In order to | 110 HOPE AND FAITH AND OTHER KEY CONCEPTS DISCUSSED IN ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS |

| It would mean superimposing a wishful kind of faith over inner doubts, negativities, negation. Unfortunately, this is | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| between superimposition and real experience. If you lack faith because you live in blindness and negation and | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| this inner experience and certainty comes, you have faith. Until then, you must learn to deal with | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| with the stages that prevent you from reaching faith. This may take years. In the meantime, you | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |

| talk about the true and false concepts of faith and doubt -- about the duality that can | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| doubt -- about the duality that can distort faith as well as doubt. This is the topic | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| a very specific juncture. The popular concept of faith in this era of humanity's development is that | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| laziness and ignorance. Therefore, in today's intellectual climate, faith stands in ill repute. If faith were indeed | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| intellectual climate, faith stands in ill repute. If faith were indeed what it is supposed to be | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| would be good reason to discard it. If faith were a gullible lack of discrimination, then of | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| would rightly guard against anything that might resemble faith. For you do not want to be gullible | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| rest and function, you cannot make the leap. Faith, according to popular notion, implies a perpetual state | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| important to differentiate between the false concept of faith and the real concept of faith. What is | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| concept of faith and the real concept of faith. What is the real concept of faith? In | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| of faith. What is the real concept of faith? In reality, faith requires a succession of several | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| is the real concept of faith? In reality, faith requires a succession of several steps or stages | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| first step in the practicing and acquiring of faith. In fact, it is the first step of | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| In fact, it is the first step of faith -- the faith that something may exist beyond | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| is the first step of faith -- the faith that something may exist beyond your present vision | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| new idea. You may never have thought about faith in these terms. But I assure you, my | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| is part and parcel of the stages of faith. A person's faith undergoes a development in itself | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| parcel of the stages of faith. A person's faith undergoes a development in itself. The highly developed | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| Yet it is precisely the scientifically-minded who hold faith in ill repute because they have encountered the | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| version of it. But the real steps in faith, that make faith a dynamic road in itself | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| But the real steps in faith, that make faith a dynamic road in itself, are completely compatible | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| way possible for you. The second step in faith requires more of a leap. With this leap | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| third step in the venture and growth of faith. It expresses: Yes, I have experienced something new | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| Thus you do not make the leap in faith -- that by being true to the divine | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| consistently, you arrive at the fourth step, where faith becomes an experienced reality, where it is already | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| at the fourth step in the venture of faith, you can never doubt this reality. The proofs | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| category of the wrong and distorted version of faith. Also, gullibility, the lack of right doubt, contains | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| who doubts in the right way moves toward faith and is in faith. But the person who | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| right way moves toward faith and is in faith. But the person who doubts in the wrong | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| by wishful thinking as the wrong kind of faith is. There are numerous reasons for this personal | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| or reason, because then nothing matters anyway. So faith in a non-God exists in order to hope | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| lot in common with the wrong kind of faith. Both are governed by wishful thinking. Very often | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| you in this respect and thus you approach faith. If you doubt others -- rather than your | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| dualistic picture. We have apparently two opposites -- faith and doubt. Religion will glibly say faith is | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| -- faith and doubt. Religion will glibly say faith is right and doubt is wrong. Intellectually-minded people | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| wrong. Intellectually-minded people will say equally glibly that faith is wrong and doubt is right. The two | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| exists on both sides. In the real version, faith and doubt are not mutually exclusive opposites. They | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| reality. This leads to the various steps of faith. In each of these steps the right kind | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| When you tend toward the lazy kind of faith, doubt must awaken you into mental activity. When | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| you tend to doubt in the destructive way, faith must protect you from being submerged in it | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| you can always find the unity, the right faith and right doubt, and thereby come out of | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| right doubt, and thereby come out of ill-placed faith and ill-placed doubt. That key I have given | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| into, unable to give up. That venture in faith is the movement that combines faith and doubt | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| venture in faith is the movement that combines faith and doubt as one complementing whole in the | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| one of you. Believe in this spirit, have faith in its existence, and it will make itself | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |

| implies attitudes of wishful thinking, pride, lack of faith, fear of exposing what is not perfect, shirking | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| self-value. How can you speak the word of faith in your own unfoldment and unfulfillment if you | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| your unfortunate hate for yourself and lack of faith in your higher self to deserve fulfillment and | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| experiencing. This gap can be bridged only by faith and that, in turn, is a question of | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| these words is a necessary step and prerequisite. Faith is always comprised of courage and strength. For | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| false safety measures into which so much false faith was invested, often for a long time, need | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| the many words of truth, strength, giving, commitment, faith, goodwill and action -- in short, of the | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| a prideful, fearful, untruthful attitude indicates lack of faith in your own deeper nature. Therefore you hurriedly | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| you refuse to face your deep lack of faith in yourself, you always project it outward in | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
