THE SECRET OF CREATION IS KNOWN IN SILENCE. WHEN YOU DO NOTHING,
YOU ARE THE MOST ACTIVE.

(Page 7 of 7)

      The secret of creation is known in silence. When you do nothing, you are the most active. Truths and mysteries are revealed. Some see space as a void; the contemplative person probes deeply and sees something beyond—Light. We see that this planet is just a speck in the vast universe of billions and billions of stars and planets, and within that speck we exist. Focusing inward, we behold resplendent Light. Contemplation takes us into deeper and deeper levels of understanding and awareness.
      When this deeper knowledge opens, it makes us see quite differently. Patience, which is an astral quality, becomes our asset. An example has been given of a sage who tried to empty the ocean with a bowl. Each time he poured the water onto the sand it seeped right back into the ocean. To us this seems useless and crazy. When someone happened by and asked why he was doing the impossible, his reply was: “If you want to help, bring another bowl and do the same; if not, go on your way.” The sage was only symbolically trying to empty the ocean; he was testing his own patience, trying to empty his mind and let go of his ego. Even in seemingly enigmatic ways, one can achieve the useful.
 
 

THE WISDOM AND POWER ARE WITHIN YOU to do whatever you want. If you achieve wisdom, you radiate it to everyone around you. You can transmit it through vibration. You may ask, what about your current problems? Once you evolve through transformation, such questions will vanish. You won’t have to solve problems—you won’t even feel them as problems. You come to a level of evolution where you are immune to problems. They will not exist as you perceive them now. With the proper perspective you will see rightly, truthfully. Problems exist because you avoid the truth. In this process you are not avoiding anything; your entire outlook is transformed.
      By conserving time and energy, your body and mind regain their innate power. When you recover your will, you achieve paradise lost. Baser desires, wishes, hang-ups, blocks and impositions then have no meaning. Will, which was previously captive, is released into freedom. That will is very powerful, incorruptible, the greatest energy. With it you redesign your life. You transform yourself into that potentiality which was within you. You come in tune with Supreme Will. Through the portal of will you project into a totally new life, a totally new universe, a totally new Being.
