“The manifest universe is the body of God; it is the logical and necessary outcome of the infinite self-knowingness of God.”

“All manifestation of Life is from an invisible to a visible plane, through a silent, effortless process of spiritual realization.”
~ The Science of Mind, Ernest Holmes p330.5 ~
There is a Great Mystery that is the essence that permeates absolutely everything, without exception. This All-Encompassing Presence is the One-And-Only-Power behind all manifestation, the seen and the unseen, as well as the animate and the inanimate.
Whether it is called The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit by Christians; Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Preserver, and Shiva as Judge by Hindus; or, Spirit, Mind, and Body by New Thought; the One Presence is described according to the different aspects of Its mode of being; i.e., Its nature.
While various religions around the world have named this First Cause/Life Principle by many names to describe Its changeless nature; it behooves aspirants of practical spirituality to name what they perceive to be true about this Universal Invisible Energy, and their personal relationship to It. After all, it is your perception of Ultimate Reality that determines your belief system – which in turn determines your life experience. “It is done unto you as you believe.”
It seems as though no matter how much good we manifest in our individual lives, there is still a longing within us. It seems as though until the peace and harmony that is meant to be on earth is realized all around us, as our neighbor as well as the stranger we encounter, the inherent nature that lies at the center of our being, is not fully awake. This Sleeping Genius is aroused by recognizing It, unifying with It, and with unwavering faith in Its unchanging nature of Love, Peace, Beauty, Harmony, Wisdom, and Joy, begin to unleash It in everything we think, say, and do.

Yes, there is a Universal Consciousness that binds all of humanity together as One. This Consciousness is infinite. It is through a deliberate intention to expand in this unlimited field of creative energy, that the veil of division and separation begins to be lifted and the evolution of the collective consciousness takes place on the planet.
Just as the manifest universe of trees, flowers, stars, oceans, planets, galaxies, sunsets, and
moonlight is the logical and necessary outcome of the infinite self-knowingness of God; likewise, the conditions of humanity are the logical outcome of the collective consciousness of humanity.
Carl Jung says, “Man is the microcosm of the macrocosm; the God on earth is built on the pattern of the God in nature.” The Sacred texts of Genesis 1:27 says, “God created man in his own image;” and in Psalm 82.6 it is written, “You are gods.” The embodiment of these revelations empowers each One to be in alignment with one’s true nature.
I release the need to conform and fully embrace the unique being I am.
