| you first. Is it the denial of the link between the automatic reflex of pleasure and a | 135 MOBILITY IN RELAXATION-SUFFERING THROUGH ATTACHMENT OF LIFE FORCE TO NEGATIVE SITUATIONS |
| and look at your whole self. The first link in the chain reaction is a narrow choice | 136 THE ILLUSORY FEAR OF THE SELF |
| strain and both feel distinctly unreal. The next link in the negative chain reaction, following self-alienation, is | 136 THE ILLUSORY FEAR OF THE SELF |
| that any present situation must be a direct link to the inner being. You will find that | 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY |
| be careful to extend this awareness and to link it with the unwelcome manifestations in your life | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| When a negative chain reaction is activated, each link -- which is simultaneously cause and effect -- | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| to return to that original level. Correcting each link in the chain reaction fills people with dread | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| exists, and you need to find this essential link. Not knowing what you feel and what you | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| help lead all of you into the next link in the chain reaction. When we understand the | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| human nature, for there is a very direct link between the two. I have often mentioned this | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| the unconscious or semi- conscious mind. The next link in this chain reaction is difficulty in asserting | 164 FURTHER ASPECTS OF POLARITY -- SELFISHNESS |
| all you deplore in your life. The connecting link between cause and effect is still absent. As | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| is still absent. As long as this connecting link is not established, you cannot really want to | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| vagueness will never do the trick. The specific link must be established, which is perhaps easier than | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| life. To facilitate the discovery of this connecting link of positive fascination with creation, you will need | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| to become what it potentially is. The second link in the chain is your attitude. I already | 179 CHAIN REACTIONS IN THE DYNAMICS OF CREATIVE LIFE SUBSTANCE |
| want it. This brings us to the next link in the chain reaction. What are the elements | 179 CHAIN REACTIONS IN THE DYNAMICS OF CREATIVE LIFE SUBSTANCE |
| intensive pathwork should use this key. Although every link in the chain reaction is, in itself, not | 179 CHAIN REACTIONS IN THE DYNAMICS OF CREATIVE LIFE SUBSTANCE |
| yourself. Actually you defend against establishing a connecting link between those feelings, your inner knowledge, and your | 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS |
| you, is a key to finding the next link in the chain of your evolution. At this | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |

| so disconnected from its source that comprehending the link between cause and effect requires focused attention and | 197 ENERGY AND CONSCIOUSNESS IN DISTORTION: EVIL |
