The Greatest Secret on Earth

     “What is it?
    By contacting a Higher Power, a man can live an entirely new life, both in the here and now and in the there and hereafter.…
     There is another way to live.…
     I assure you that this is no mere opinion of mine.…
     Every man and woman, without exception, senses that there is something else beyond his ordinary life. The perfect evidence that there is something far better is his enduring search for it.…
     If he persists, in spite of his doubts and failures, he will find the answer. It exists.”
(From Vernon Howard’s classic book, The Mystic Path to Cosmic Power)

Delights of the Inner Path

     “Whoever is eager enough to find the secret kingdom will never fail in his quest.… To live rightly in this world we must first become aware of it. The problem is man’s false assumption that he is already aware, which leaves him no motive for investigation. Do not assume that the only existing world is that presented by the five senses and the surface mind.” These are beautiful words of encouragement from Vernon Howard.

Gratitude for Teachings

     I embarked on a serious study of these principles more than 3 years ago, but first began reading Vernon Howard’s books about 10 years ago. At first, I didn’t even know what the teachings were about though I was attracted to them.
     Now my life is much simpler. There is more clarity, less problems, more efficiency, more time to accomplish things, less involvement in useless activities, far less association with lost people, more ability to organize, less debt, more peace, more ability to understand cause and effect, more spiritual perception, more relaxation, improved health, cleanliness, far less interest in watching TV or movies, improved intelligence, more compassion and understanding, etc. Now I take as much time as possible throughout the day for contemplation and practical

The Truly Good Woman

     A woman who felt guilty over past misdeeds said to herself, “I must repent. I will start by doing good to others.”
     So she joined charitable organizations and said nice things to people. But to her surprise she felt a vague resentment toward her activities. She felt forced to be good. This doubled her guilt, for now she felt guilty over her resentment toward doing good.
     Though confused, she intelligently reflected, “There is something dreadfully wrong. This is not goodness at all; it is self-enslaving stage-acting. True goodness must be something entirely different.”
     So she began a search for true goodness, which she finally found. She explained to herself, “True goodness blooms in the absence of an unconscious self-picture of being good.”
     Abolish conditioned thoughts about personal goodness and badness and authentic goodness flourishes.
