| power of their harmonious interplay creates forever new manifestations and individualizations of the Divine Being. I do | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| efforts. But when people expect direct and visible manifestations of their efforts to come immediately, they misunderstand | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| their active, initiating powers and the spontaneous, indirect manifestations of growth are just as disconnected. If and | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| taken in the past, such persons ascribe the manifestations to a power outside themselves -- or at | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| or at least miss the connection between the manifestations and their own actions and attitudes. You can | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| -- not overeager and not frightened -- then manifestations can appear. If you are equally receptive to | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| will consider night and day as mutually complementary manifestations of nature, both having their value, beauty, and | 164 FURTHER ASPECTS OF POLARITY -- SELFISHNESS |

| the true nature of life, not its distorted manifestations, which come from your own negativities. When you | 181 THE MEANING OF THE HUMAN STRUGGLE |

| you can envisage the possibilities of all life manifestations, because life is a continuous flowing, moving, ongoing | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |

| and often physical difficulties characterize this state. These manifestations are the consequences of being unaware of a | 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL |
| areas of their personality. So we have two manifestations. Some people are very conscious of a lack | 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL |

| doubt is apt to believe that the first manifestations and answers are coincidences, that they would have | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| illusion that energy and consciousness are two different manifestations. The same split perception exists in human beings | 197 ENERGY AND CONSCIOUSNESS IN DISTORTION: EVIL |
| from energy in their essence, although in their manifestations there might be an apparent disconnection. How can | 197 ENERGY AND CONSCIOUSNESS IN DISTORTION: EVIL |
| If this happens, the energy also alters its manifestations. Thus the manifestation of evil is not something | 197 ENERGY AND CONSCIOUSNESS IN DISTORTION: EVIL |
| and fear, which are always interconnected. All other manifestations of evil arise from this triad. Furthermore, each | 197 ENERGY AND CONSCIOUSNESS IN DISTORTION: EVIL |
| resists the truth and love that are creative manifestations of life. Pride is the opposite of humility | 197 ENERGY AND CONSCIOUSNESS IN DISTORTION: EVIL |
| has no name. I have spoken about many manifestations that accompany self-realization. I have spoken about how | 200 THE COSMIC FEELING |
| clearly which attitudes, expressions, and intentionalities have produced manifestations in your life that you deplore and have | 200 THE COSMIC FEELING |
| and effect of your negative creation and its manifestations, you become a creator. You realize your birthright | 200 THE COSMIC FEELING |
| into your inner stillness and wait for its manifestations. Here you have right away a contradiction that | 201 DEMAGNETIZING NEGATIVE FORCE FIELDS -- PAIN OF GUILT |

| When people are disorderly in their outer life manifestations -- in their person and personal affairs, their | 205 ORDER AS A UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE |

| In a recent lecture I outlined some typical manifestations of states and experiences in which the little | 212 CLAIMING THE TOTAL CAPACITY FOR GREATNESS |
| I observed that there are many other such manifestations, some of which I would discuss at later | 212 CLAIMING THE TOTAL CAPACITY FOR GREATNESS |
| you look at both the overt and covert manifestations of this struggle in you, and see in | 213 THE SPIRITUAL AND THE PRACTICAL MEANING OF LET GO, LET GOD |

| that does not stop merely because certain momentary manifestations seem to stop. This sense of eternality is | 215 PSYCHIC NUCLEAR POINTS CONTINUED -- PROCESS IN THE NOW |
| a deep struggle or temporarily feeling hopeless. These manifestations merely bring out what needs to reach the | 216 CONNECTION BETWEEN THE INCARNATORY PROCESS AND THE LIFE TASK |
| out its worst impulses despite all its favorable manifestations. Thus the personality fragments itself so much that | 216 CONNECTION BETWEEN THE INCARNATORY PROCESS AND THE LIFE TASK |
| personality fragments itself so much that extremely destructive manifestations will take place. In extreme cases, this may | 216 CONNECTION BETWEEN THE INCARNATORY PROCESS AND THE LIFE TASK |
| points start exploding, creating more and more positive manifestations, energies and momentum. Thus the influx of divine | 216 CONNECTION BETWEEN THE INCARNATORY PROCESS AND THE LIFE TASK |
| the limited dualistic state. This applies to many manifestations of your life. Rarely if ever is anything | 217 THE PHENOMENON OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| thus aware, you would see that all negative manifestations, no matter how cruel or unjust they may | 217 THE PHENOMENON OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| and are a part of, regardless of outer manifestations. The outer manifestations are, as I said, in | 218 THE EVOLUTIONARY PROCESS |
| part of, regardless of outer manifestations. The outer manifestations are, as I said, in themselves a meaningful | 218 THE EVOLUTIONARY PROCESS |
| But when you make the connection between the manifestations and your process, your perception must change drastically | 218 THE EVOLUTIONARY PROCESS |
| of problems you really only deal with the manifestations, the results, of this inner negative nucleus. When | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| you indeed find that it exists, if its manifestations are no illusion, then surrendering to it is | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| of distribution and intensity of divine and evil manifestations exist. Consciousness and energy manifest separately in entities | 222 TRANSFORMATION OF THE LOWER SELF |
| this point of view. Most such periods were manifestations of exactly this principle. When the new movement | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| This is why you find today the regrettable manifestations of group consciousness in overpopulation, overcrowded cities, in | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| is almost lacking. These, and many more such manifestations in your modern life, are not the result | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| is trusted and honestly accepted, then these negative manifestations will fall by the wayside. As for those | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| seed plan must be strong. Hence the positive manifestations are extremely noticeable. Changes, unfoldments of new potentials | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| others. Selfishness, greed, ruthlessness, unconcern, and cruelty are manifestations of this turn of mind. Since the precepts | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| was a much needed testing ground. All the manifestations of strife and upheaval, natural as well as | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| upside down. There, only the outer, most superficial manifestations are recognized and dealt with; thus life is | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| to the inner law. Many outer laws are manifestations of divine law, but have lost the dynamic | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| bodily senses. On this level of consciousness, divine manifestations appear as opposites, but as I so often | 228 BALANCE |
| manifestation or, for that matter, emotional or mental manifestations. Let us remain for the moment on the | 228 BALANCE |
| factor is the cohesive force that underlies the manifestations that appear as opposites. The balancing factor is | 228 BALANCE |

| at all is by the results and the manifestations in your life. This is the absolute proof | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| opposition to another. Truth, beauty, love are ever-changing manifestations, changing always appropriately to the occasion. Therefore perfection | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| work through in its details and small everyday manifestations. Instead, you put on a mask of perfectionism | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| that are divine truth become lies and neurotic manifestations. Humanity's confusion of these states at this point | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |

| and will fail to see that these very manifestations you consider negative have a tremendous meaning and | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| and again, there comes a time when your manifestations have a different meaning, when you no longer | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
