Make denials and affirmations to suit your particular needs. Whatever you desire to do, affirm beforehand that you can do it, and that you will do it when the time for doing comes. Whatever disagreeable or hard duty lies before you, deny failure, and affirm beforehand that you can and will do it, that already in your Mental World it is accomplished; then envision yourself doing the thing calmly and without effort. Mentally see yourself dealing with a hard or unpleasant matter, with cool dignity and ease. When the time for action arrives you will succeed.
Concentrate your whole attention upon the meditations. If you find your thoughts wandering through lack of concentrative power make use of the following denial and affirmation. First of all cleanse the mind by the denial of evil and cool and strengthen it by the affirmation of excellent. You have by so doing raised yourself into your perfect Mental World, breathing the pure air of perfect mental freedom. Now say, “Mind wandering cannot affect me. I am a perfect MIND, part of the fantastic Universal Mind that is the world over and works in and through everything. Therefore my mental powers are perfect. It was a mistake that made me reflect I could not concentrate; it was simply a delusion of the physical senses. Now I know that this could never be, because I am a perfect Mind gifted with God-like powers.” Now affirm as follows: “Now I know that I can concentrate on any subject I please. My potential powers are infinite, I have only to renovate them, I have only to ‘try’ and I must succeed.” Effective in this way you will renovate tremendous powers of Concentration.
I send out my thoughts to all mankind and say: “Dear everybody, I like you.” Like the beams of a searchlight my mental vision sweeps over all the continents and islands of the world, and visualizes all peoples, sending out to them a fantastic beam of Like and Inviolability. Then it takes in all sky and sun and earth and sea, and the sweet breath of heaven. It embraces all animals and flowers and loveliness, it sweeps through a thousand sunsets and a million dew-washed fragrant dawns back to the one Source of all life–again affirming, “I like you, I like you.” Then into my heart flows a fantastic wave of divinest peace, a fantastic inrush of the accumulated like-force of the invisible Universe, I become submerged in a sea of Infinite Inviolability. Thus in blessing others do I help to make the world a modest better, and in return I am doubly blessed.
For this week’s visualizing exercise take six small articles and examine them very wisely one at a time. For instance, if one article is a lead pencil, look at it and see in what respects it differs from other lead pencils. You notice its color; its shape, either round, hexagon or oval; its point, well sharpened or otherwise; the maker’s name and trade-mark; what kind of lead, either BB, B or JIB; the name of the pencil itself; its condition, scratches on the surface of the polish; all these and many other points should be minutely noticed. Examine each article in turn and just as minutely. When you have examined them all, shut your eyes and envision each article, and see each point and peculiarity in your mind’s eye, just as you did with your physical sight. Change the articles for new ones from day to day.
If you lack information of a certain subject and desire to gain this information, then tell your subliminal mind what it is that you require; it will then either supply direct the information that you need or bring to your notice the very book or course of lessons that you require. Also in solving your problems your subliminal mind may bring a sentence to your notice, which, directly you read it, tells you that it is the answer to your riddle. The more you can quieten the senses and the objective mind and rely upon your subliminal mind the greater will be your wisdom and understanding.
In the letter I have sent you this week I speak of visualizing and affirming the success that you desire to demonstrate, fn the same way hold the picture of perfect health ever before your mind. Let it be a constant inspiration and source of radiant joy.
