NEW LIFE-COMMAND
     Look inside yourself and ask, “Am I a pleasant person to myself right now?” The answer will always be “NO.” Self-honesty is a must. And when you see what’s really going on down there, you’re to see that’s really not you. Self-observation separates us from what has taken us over and the result will be new life-command.

SEEK ANSWERS UNTIL SOMETHING RINGS TRUE
     Here’s your exercise. When alone say out loud and listen to yourself saying it, “I will seek answers until something rings true to me personally.” Notice it is only words to you. Now here’s the main point: while saying “I will seek answers until something rings true to me personally” out loud, you are to listen to yourself talking out loud. Here’s what you’re doing — you’re connecting a spiritual fact, a truth, with yourself, with something that is not just your intellect. It’s something that you want to make a part of your essence. As you said, you want the truth to be a living part of you. You want to feel it, you want to know it. You want to do more than think about it.
     Again, “I will seek answers until something rings true to me personally.” It will! You watch. What a delightful experience this is by working on yourself. Finally, something other than you is living your life for you. That is the meaning of authentic spiritual salvation. Want it? You can have it but you’re going to have to arouse yourself and not remain complacent. Remember, the knowledge in this lesson already exists in your higher nature. You need only ascend to that location within yourself.
