law of attraction the master key system part 4 charles haanel
the master key system part 4 enclosed here width I hand you part 4 this part
will show you why what you think or do or feel is an indication of what you are
thought as energy and energy is power and it is because all the religions
sciences and philosophies with which the world is heretofore them familiar have
been based upon the manifestation of this energy instead of the energy itself
that the world has been limited to effects while causes have been ignored
or misunderstood for this reason we give God and the devil and religion positive
and negative in science and good and bad and philosophy master key reverses the
process it is interested only in cause and the letters received from students
tell a marvelous story they indicate conclusively that students are finding
the cause whereby they may secure for themselves help harmony
abundance and whatever else may be necessary for the welfare and happiness
life is expressive and it is our business to express ourselves
harmoniously and constructively sorrow misery unhappiness disease and poverty
are not necessities and we are constantly eliminating them by this
process of eliminating consistent rising above and beyond limitation of any kind
he has strengthened and purified his thought need not concern himself about
microbes and he who has come into an understanding of the law of abundance
will go at once to the source of the supply it is thus that fate fortune and
destiny will be controlled as readily as any captain controls his ship or an
engineer is trained the eye of you is not the physical body that is simply an
instrument which the eye uses to carry out its purposes
the eye cannot be the mind for the mind is simply another instrument which the
eye uses with which to think reason and plan the eye must be something which
controls and directs both the body and the mind something which determines what
they shall do and how they shall act when you come into realization of the
true nature of this eye you will enjoy a sense of power which you have never
known before your personality is made up of countless individual characteristics
peculiarities habits and traits of character these are the results of your
"law of attraction" the master key system part 4 charles haanel
former method of thinking but they have nothing to do with the real eye when you
say I think the eye tells the mind what it shall think when you say I go the eye
tells the physical body where it shall go the real nature of this eye is
spiritual and is the source of the real power which comes to men and women when
they come into a realization of their true nature the greatest and most
marvelous power which this eye has been given as the power to think but few
people know how to think constructively or correctly consequently they achieve
only in different results most people allow their thoughts to
dwell on selfish purposes the inevitable result of an infantile mind when a mind
becomes mature it understands that the germ of defeat is in every selfish
stopped the trained mind knows that every transaction must benefit every
person who is in any way connected with the transaction and any attempt to
profit by the weakness ignorant or necessity of another one evitable
operate to his disadvantage this is because the individual is a part
of the universal part cannot antagonize any other part but on the contrary the
welfare of each part depends upon a recognition of the interest of the whole
those who recognize this principle have a great advantage in the affairs of life
they do not wear themselves out they can eliminate vagrant thoughts with facility
they can readily concentrate to the highest possible degree on any subject
they do not waste time or money upon objects which can be of no possible
benefit to them if you cannot do these things it is because you have thus far
not made the necessary effort now is the time to make the effort the result will
be exactly in proportion to the effort expended one of the strongest
affirmations which you can use for the purpose of strengthening the will and
realizing your power to accomplish is I can be what I will to be every time you
repeat it realize who and what this eye is try to come into a thorough
understanding of the true nature of the eye if you do you will become invincible
that is provided that your objects and purposes are constructive and are
therefore in harmony with the creative principle of the universe if you make
use of this affirmation use it continuously night and morning
it is often during the day as you think of it and continue to do so until it
becomes a part of you form the habit unless you do this you get better not
start at all because modern psychology tells us that when we start something
and we do not complete it or make a resolution and do not keep it we are
forming the habit of failure absolute ignominy failure if you do not intend to
law of attraction the master key system part 4 charles haanel attract create manifest
do a thing do not start if you do start see it through even if the heavens fall
even if you make up your mind to do something do it let nothing no one
interfere the eye and you determine the thing is settled the die
is cast there is no longer any argument if you carry out this idea beginning
with small things which you know you can control and gradually increase the
effort but never under any circumstances allowing your eye to be overruled you
will find that you can eventually control yourself and many men and women
have found to their sorrow that it is easier to control a kingdom than to
control themselves when you have learned to control yourself you will have found
the world within which controls the world without you'll have become
irresistible men and things will respond to every wish without any apparent
effort on your part this is not so strange or impossible as it may appear
when you remember that the world within is controlled by the eye and that this
eye is part or one with the infinite eye which is the universal energy or spirit
usually called God this is not a mere statement or Theory made for the purpose
of confirming or establishing an idea but it is a fact which has been accepted
by the best religious thought as well as the best scientific thought Herbert
spender said amid all the mysteries at which we are surrounded nothing is more
certain than that we are ever in the presence of infinite and eternal energy
from which all things proceed Lyman Abbot and an address delivered before
the alumni of Bangor Theological seminar said we are coming to think of God as
dwelling a man rather than as operating on men from without science goes a
little way and its search and stops science finds the ever-present eternal
energy a religion finds the power behind this energy and locates it within man
but this is by no means a new discovery the Bible says exactly the same thing
and the language is just as plain and convincing know ye not that ye are the
Temple of the Living God here then is the secret of the wonderful creative
power of the world within here is the secret of power of mastery to overcome
does not mean to go without things self-denial is not success
we cannot give unless we get we cannot be helpful unless we are strong the
infinite is not bankrupt and we were the representatives of the infinite power
should not be bankrupt either and if we wish to be of service to others we must
have power and more power but to get it we must give it we must be of service
the more we give the more we shall get we must become a channel whereby the
universal can Express activity the universal is constantly seeking to
express itself to be of service and it seeks the channel whereby I can find the
greatest activity where it can do the most good where it can be of greatest
law of attraction the master key system part 4 charles haanel
service to mankind the universal cannot express through you as long as you are
busy with your plans your own purposes quiet the senses seek inspiration focus
the mental activity on within dwell in the consciousness of your unity with
omnipotence still water runs deep contemplate the multitudinous
opportunities to which you have spiritual access by the omnipresent of
power visualize the events circumstances and conditions which these spiritual
connections may assist in manifesting realize the fact the essence and soul of
all things is spiritual and that the spiritual is the real because it is the
life of all there is when the spirit is gone the life is gone it is dead
it has ceased to exist these mental activities pertain to the
world within to the world of cause and conditions and circumstances which
result are the effect is thus that you become a creator this is important work
and the higher loftier grander and more noble ideas which you can conceive the
more important the work will become over work or over play or over bodily
activity of any kind produces conditions of mental apathy and stagnation which
makes it impossible to do the more important work which results in a
realization of conscious power we should therefore seek the silence frequently
power comes through a repose it is in the silence that we can be still and
when we are still we can think and thought is the secret of all attainment
thought is a mode of motion and is carried by the law vibration the same as
the light or electricity it is given vitality by the emotions through the law
of love it takes form and expression by the law of growth it is a product of the
spiritual eye hence it's divine spiritual and creative nature from this
it is evident that in order to express power abundance or any other
constructive purpose the emotions must be called upon to give feeling to the
thought so that it will take form how many this purpose be accomplished this
law of attraction the master key system part 4 charles haanel
is the vital point how many we develop the faith the courage the feeling which
will result in accomplishment the reply is by exercise mental strength is
secured in exactly the same way the physical strength is secured by exercise
we think something perhaps with difficulty the first time we think the
same thing again and it becomes easier this time we think it again and again it
then becomes a mental habit we continue to think the same thing finally it
becomes automatic we can no longer help thinking this thing we are now positive
of what we think there is no longer any doubt about it we are sure we know last
week I asked you to relax to let go physically this week I'm going to ask
you to let go mentally if you practice the exercise given to you last week
fifteen or twenty minutes a day in accordance with the instructions you can
no doubt relax physically and anyone who cannot consciously do this quickly and
completely is not a master of himself he has not attained freedom he is still a
slave to conditions but I shall assume that you have mastered the exercise and
are ready to take the next step which is mental freedom this week after taking
your usual position remove all tension by completely relaxing then mentally let
go of all adverse conditions such as hatred anger worry jealousy envy sorrow
trouble or disappointment of any kind you may say that you cannot let go of
these things but you can you can do so by mentally determining to do so by
voluntary intention and persistence the reason that some cannot do this is
because they allow themselves to be controlled by the emotions instead of by
their intellect but those who will be guided by the intellect will gain the
victory you will now succeed the first time you try but practice makes perfect
in this as in everything else you must succeed in dismissing eliminating and
completely destroying these negative and destructive thoughts
because they are the seed which is constantly germinating in two discordant
conditions of every conceivable kind and description
