depth and richness of their truth, and letting that revealed truth
become evident in our experience, is the great key to illuminat-
ing consciousness (spiritual awakening).
This ‘enriching’ of consciousness is what Jesus explains in
the Parable of the Sower (the Bible; Mark 4):

Chapter One
With the last seven days of preparing and enriching the soil (re-
ceptivity) of consciousness we are ready to plant our primary
realizations of Truth.
Perhaps the three most significant and ‘complete’ realizations
of truth ever given mankind are the following (these particular
statements are taken from the Bible, but in spiritual scripture
the world over we find the same three truths revealed):
16
THE FIRST TRUTH
“All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing
was made that was made.” (Gospel of John 1:3)
And, “God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold,
it was very good.” (Genesis 1:31)
We must take Truth literally. Truth must become a living,
moving reality to us. Truth must become what we are in living
awareness.
Of course, Truth is already what we are, but because Truth,
God, the Infinite, is consciousness the entire ‘secret’ is conscious
awareness of Who and What we are.
Always, it is about being consciously aware.
Truth is True; Truth is the One, therefore only Reality. But
unless and until we each become (awaken) consciously aware of
Truth being What and Who we are, and What All Is, then It
and the boundless Perfection of Life It Is cannot be evident tan-

TAKING THE FIRST TRUTH DEEPER
Never let the Truth of the Finished Kingdom slip from your
conscious awareness. Keep the truth of It alive in consciousness
each and every hour:
All is already Complete.
God is Finished, Whole, Complete, Perfect.
God is not still working on His Kingdom. Nothing is ‘born’,
‘growing’, ‘maturing’, then ‘dying’. Nothing is ‘evolving’. The
Kingdom Is; the Universe Is; the Earth Is—All One Finished
Body of Truth, God, Paradise, infinite in Form, Expression and
Purpose; omnipresent as You.
The Spiritual Universe Is before (meaning ‘within’, not ‘be-
fore’ as in a sense of time) the image of universe (see Genesis
1:1).
Spiritual Man Is before the image of man (named ‘mental and
physical’).
Light fills the universe before the image of the sun is in the
sky.
All already Is; all forms of imagery are ‘secondary’ as
‘earthly’ (what we name ‘human; material; physical’) experience.
All is God’s Perfect Spiritual Kingdom, Being, Body, Form,
Activity, Amount from ‘the beginning’ (eternity happening as
the very Essence, Truth and Reality of God, You, All; All
One)—the Omnipresence of The Infinite happening as You (be-

TAKING THE FIRST TRUTH DEEPER
You are never alone. The whole readership of this book is one
body of being, one consciousness, one truth of being awaken-
ing.
You are That, and are continually in My Consciousness; you
are known as Your Truth; you are tangibly realized as Your
Truth and the Truth of every detail of you and your world. I—
Paul—do not have to ‘personally’ know that you are reading
this book, and keep you in ‘my’ consciousness. Consciousness
Knows; Consciousness is ‘your’ consciousness and mine.
Therefore, rest and relax in My—The One—Consciousness
supporting you, protecting you, flooding you, permeating every
detail of your world and experience.
As you know this, and rest and relax, and be open to It, you
will feel Its presence filling you within, Being You, revealing the
Life, Love, Beauty, Bounty, Harmony and Peace that is Your
Truth here and now.

INTRODUCING THE SECOND TRUTH
THE EARTH...
This is the great key to Oneness experienced tangibly both ‘in’ and
‘out’.
The ‘earth’—which is what we have named the material,
physical sense of experience—is nothing more or less or differ-
ent than the fullness (omnipresence) of God.
Why is that true? Because God is Infinite; the Infinitude It-
self and everything everywhere in, and of, It.
Therefore all experience is of God. What ‘else’ could experi-
ence consist of if All is God?
39

BUT...

INTRODUCING THE SECOND TRUTH
to that appearance.
Lao Tzu’s incredible statement, “If you can name it, it is not
true” is literal. Only God Is. The first Truth—its three state-
ments—have given us a beautiful clarity about Only God Is;
Only Spirit and Truth Is; Only Infinity Is.
Now we can easily understand why “The earth is the Lord’s
and the fullness thereof.”
No matter what we ‘name’ God (the infinitude of Being and
Experience)—in this case the name ‘earth’—it is still, and only,
God for there is “none else”.
41
CHAPTER FOUR

Chapter Five
If “the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof ” then all not
only Is, but also ‘belongs’ to, God, Spirit, Truth.
All is God. All, All, All.
All is God Being that Allness; All is the Macro being the Micro,
and the Micro being the Macro. All is God Being the Fullness of
Itself, the Completeness of Itself, the Oneness of Itself, the Har-
mony, Peace, Bliss of Itself, in Oneness with and as Itself, Self-
Complete, Self-Whole, Self-Fulfilled.
All is always Complete, Whole, in divine Balance, under di-
vine Government, Perfect, Fulfilled, Flawless, Indefectible.
All, without exception.
All is the Whole of Infinity omnipresent as each specific as-
pect, or moment, of individual awareness. Each specific aspect
of awareness—to the dim ‘human’ mind—looks as if it is, or

and activity.
You are the Infinity of Being. Everything everywhere—
whether we name it a person, place, thing, condition, plant, veg-
etable, mineral, cell, atom or sub-atomic particle—is Infinity
Being that being, that form, that condition, that activity.
“The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.”
46
THE REVELATION OF ONENESS
47
CHAPTER FIVE
Ponder deeply, “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.”
Ponder deeply that you own nothing; that all is God and
God’s; all is impersonal, universal, “one for all, and all for one”.
48
THE REVELATION OF ONENESS
Start to detach from all you sense as being ‘yours’. Start ‘loos-
ening’ your hold on all people, things, amounts, conditions, ac-
tivities. Realize all as God and God’s, not to be ‘gained’ or
‘owned’ but humbly experienced and creatively and impartially
shared as fulfillment of being, of all of life, each hour and step
of unfolding experience.
Start establishing a sense of true spaciousness about, and
around, and as all—a deep stillness and spaciousness of You as
Truth, as Spirit, as Peace, as Consciousness.
Realize deeper and deeper that as you release the beings,
things and conditions of “this world” you are free in Spirit.
Then you have all in and as the freedom of truthful Being.
In ‘ownership’ you are restricted, bound, limited to that
which you ‘own’. In releasing ownership you discover you have
infinity; you are infinity; you are the Substance, Nature, Char-
acter, Form and Amount of infinity.
It is releasing ownership—that of the personal sense of life—
you are free, and presented with and as All, Here, Now.
You are now free in Spirit as concept—in God as Earth, and
everything of God as Earth, all being One, here, now, eternally.
“I am in the world but not of it.” I have the freedom of the
world because I know my truth, the truth that All is God, the truth
that “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof ” and I Am
That.
I am not of concept but of Truth. I am in the conceptual ex-
perience (“this world”) but not of it. I am of the Infinity of Being,
therefore I Am and Have infinity of All, without owning a sin-
gle thing.

apart. “Know the truth, and that very truth will set you free.”
Now let’s say someone calls you with a headache. What will
you do? Well, most so-called ‘spiritual’ practitioners will quickly
get to work on either knowing the truth of the person, or the
non-truth of the headache. What they have failed to realize—
and are therefore unable to demonstrate—is that there is no
truth of the person as she or he appears, nor non-truth of the
headache as it appears. The ‘good’ person is not in Truth having
a ‘bad’ experience. Both the ‘good’ and the ‘bad’ are just ap-
pearance. There is no Truth to be found in either the appear-
ance of the person or the headache. Nothing appearing is
Truth; all which appears is just appearance, imagery, nothing
more, nothing different. Because it is nothing but appearance it
is neither good nor bad despite its suggestion of being ‘good’ or
‘bad’, ‘positive’ or ‘negative’, ‘harmonious and complete’ or
‘disharmonious and incomplete’.

“The earth” in our statement “The earth is the Lord’s and the
fullness thereof ” means ‘consciousness’—lower case ‘c’—the
conceptual awareness, therefore experience, of the human being
and the world of matter.
Everything, infinitely, is consciousness. Therefore the refer-
ence to ‘earth’ is a reference to consciousness—”consciousness
is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof ”.
Whenever you have a question come back to the foundation
of truth: God is Consciousness, and because God is infinite
“there is none else”, therefore there is none else but consciousness
(see Chapter One).
We can go further, and understand the word ‘Lord’ as mean-
ing ‘Consciousness’ because there is nothing but.
We now have: “The earth—consciousness—is the Lord’s (Its
Self; Consciousness)—and the fullness thereof.” Interpreted: “All
of experience is consciousness being that experience, and the
object of experience is the fullness of consciousness. The Whole
of God—Consciousness—is present at every point of Itself si-
multaneously.”
So let us understand this: everything in and of individual con-
sciousness—your consciousness and mine—everything, every-
thing, everything whether a mountain or a speck of dust, an ocean
or a dew drop, a human being or a nanobe, an entire body or a
single cell, every being in the universe or one, all the money in

CONSCIOUSNESS IS THE MIRACLE

CHAPTER SEVEN
You have been searching for a miracle you have thought will
heal your life, yet the very consciousness you have been search-
ing with is Itself the infinity of inexhaustible miracles—the One Great
Miracle of God Itself being the fullness of Itself as You.
Every speck of consciousness is alive as God, infinite Good,
Beauty, Bounty, Love, Joy and Freedom of Being. Your entire
consciousness—every breath and particle of it—is a miracle of
boundless proportion. Every breath, every place, every aspect,
every moment of your consciousness—everywhere infinitely, as
far as your consciousness can go, whatever it’s doing, wherever
it goes, whatever your awareness is being aware—is wholly alive
as unconditional Good already fully Manifest, Tangible and Vis-
ible as You, for You, as the fulfillment of God Itself being Itself
as You, ever ‘seeking Its fullness as you’, ever seeking to pierce

DEGREE OF AWARENESS
64
CONSCIOUSNESS IS THE MIRACLE
The scriptural reference “as far as the eye can see” means “by
the degree of Truth you are consciously aware of; you are consciously
being”—as far as your degree of conscious awareness of Truth
takes you.
Conscious awareness is the entire key. Imagine I blindfolded you
and took you to my favorite place. You have never been to this
place—you have no conscious awareness of it—so when we ar-
rive we each have a completely different awareness, therefore ex-
perience, of the same place. I have a good, familiar conscious
awareness of this place. It is my favorite place so I have spent
much time here. I am familiar with, and appreciate many of its
details—its beauty, peace, scenery; its geography; its variety of
life form, color, fragrance, character, activity, sound; its path-
ways, nooks and crannies; its feel.

CONSCIOUSNESS IS THE MIRACLE
Become more and more consciously aware that every point and
place of your consciousness is the Miracle of God Itself—the
boundless, unconditional Gift of God being the Miracle of Your
Fulfillment at and as every place, every moment, every aspect of
your consciousness.
Realize more and more that the way your experience appears
to be, and acts, is not Truth, not God Itself, not the Miracle You
are, but just finite, illusory appearance—illusory or ‘foggy’ ex-
perience.
Remember, nothing of appearance—of either good or
bad—has quality of its own because only God Is and Has Qual-
ity. Therefore we ignore all appearance—both the ‘problem’
and ‘solution’—and seek God, Spirit, Truth, the “kingdom of heaven”
instead. Seek the Miracle that exists as every point of your con-
sciousness—the Paradise of Truthful Being and Freedom of All,
fully Manifest, Tangible and Visible as your consciousness,
everywhere within and of it, omnipresent.
It is your greater conscious awareness of Truth—the one
Truth—that opens the doorway of truthful, tangible experience.

Chapter Eight
We now delve deeper still into our second truth statement, “The
earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof ” by opening con-
sciousness to one of the greatest lessons ever given mankind—
’mankind’ being the 3-dimensional state, or degree, of
consciousness; the ‘material, physical, conceptual, earthly’ state
of consciousness.
We find ourselves 2000 years ago—which is taking place in
your consciousness right now, for there is only Now—in the city
of Samaria watching the Master talking with the woman by the
well:
It was about the sixth hour. A woman of Samaria came to draw water.
Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink,” for His disciples had gone away into

CHAPTER EIGHT
After all the time they’d been with him they still had not come
to understood the difference between the illusory sense of Spirit
named matter—in this instance, material food—and Spirit Itself

THE FIELDS ARE ALREADY WHITE FOR HARVEST
being the one and only True Food, True Substance, True Form.
Yes, “I have food to eat of which you do not know.” My food
is Spirit felt welling up within, fulfilling my sense of being—tan-
gibly fulfilling it. That is the one and only True Food, and it liter-
ally feeds me at any degree of consciousness I may be living. It
may feed me without the appearance of a food agency—any 3-
dimensional, objectified appearance of food. Or it may well and
usually does for most people appear 3-dimensionally, objectively,
so easily and ‘naturally’ that the unenlightened might say ‘noth-
ing unusual has happened’, just a good and perfect sufficiency
of food being witnessed for all. Or it can appear miraculously
out of the ‘clear blue sky’ if there are no ‘natural’ means for its
presence. But appear it will, and infallibly does, when we un-
derstand the True Food that is Spirit and Truth, and when we
rely on It alone.
To illustrate this truth further for His friends, he went on to
explain, “Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the
harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they
are already white for harvest!” (Bible: John 4:31-35)
Jesus is telling us not to assume there is a delay in spiritual ful-
fillment. Spirit Is All already, and is Here and Now no matter
how It seems to be to the senses.
Don’t look ‘out there’ and believe what you observe has any
reality or power or season or evolutionary process to it. What it
Truly is—what all Truly is—is Spirit and Truth, which is already
and always Whole, Complete, Manifest, Perfect here and now.
Hence, “Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes
the harvest’?—do you not say, because you’re looking ‘out there’,

and receptivity.
Think. The whole of Infinity is already fully Manifest and
Omnipresent as the You that You are. Infinity is the presence of
You, the Body of You, the Capacity of You. Infinity of all good
form and condition is what you Have. But it is the realization of
this Great Truth, and then the living of It—the true, living re-
liance on It alone—that ‘releases’ that infinity, making it visible
and tangible to 3-dimensional sense.
Ponder, ponder, and ponder more these extraordinary truths.
Ponder them deeper, day and night.
Every minute of further pondering, contemplating, chewing
on, and then sitting in silence to allow Truth to ‘spring forth as
living waters’—to be the very tangibility of fulfillment—deep-
ens and enriches conscious awareness of the reality of Truth,
therefore the embodiment of truthful, joyous, harmonious and
free life experience. Every minute of pondering truth and letting
Truth—in your silence and receptivity—abide in you.

How was it that Jesus was able to realize any and every appear-

promptly demonstrate the nothingness of that appearance?

THE FIELDS ARE ALREADY WHITE FOR HARVEST - PART 2
“Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the
harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the
fields, for they are already white for harvest!”
The Master is explaining that if we continue to look at the
material scene and believe it, we enslave ourselves in the prison
of appearance: in materiality and its laws; its methods, seasons,
processes; its time and space; its pairs of opposites: good and
bad—”Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then
comes the harvest’?” “Whoever drinks of this water—material-
ity—will thirst again.”
But the moment it is recognize that only God Is; only Spirit
and Truth Is, and because God, Spirit and Truth, is Om-
nipresent, the Whole being Present at every point of Itself at
the same time—therefore the Whole of Fulfillment eternally pres-
ent right where you are, here and now, in and as any and every
good form required—individual being discovers boundless free-
dom and completeness.
“Do not judge by the appearance, but judge righteous judge-
ment.” Judge only by God alone Is; Spirit alone Is; Truth alone
Is; Infinity alone Is; Omnipresence alone Is.
No person, organization, object or condition of appear-
ance—that which is name-able—can bind you, limit you, delay
you, overwhelm you, disturb or destroy you the moment you catch
the great Truth that God alone Is, therefore, Yes!, “I have food
to eat of which you do not know.” Yes!, “Whoever drinks of the
water that I shall give him will never thirst. The water that I

“Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body,
what ye shall put on.
The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment.
Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have
storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them: how much more are ye better than
the fowls?

And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?
If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought
for the rest?
Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I
say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to mor-
row is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little
faith?
And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye
of doubtful mind.
For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Fa-
ther knows that ye have need of these things.
But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be
added unto you.
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the
kingdom.
Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not
old, a treasure in the heavens that fails not, where no thief approaches, nei-
ther moth corrupts.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”
Ponder these things deeply. Make them your hourly food and
water and wine. Take them as your love; enjoy the most beau-
tiful love affair with them. Ponder them morning, noon and
night. Honor them, serve them, give them freedom to be them-
selves as you, in and through your silence.

We have come a long way in the first nine chapters. If you have
been seriously working with and pondering each Week’s truths,
contemplating their profound meanings—ever deeper and more
dimensionally, with ever greater texture and flavor (which never
ceases from becoming more and fresh: the daily “fresh manna”)—
your consciousness is already much spiritually nourished, lifted
and enriched with greater harmony evident in most or at least
some of your world.
The flow of witnessed ‘fruitage’ is becoming evident in what,
to the five senses, is called ‘tangible ways’.

THE THIRD TRUTH
All the work until this point, at which we are now ready to wit-
ness “The Lord build the house”; Truth being the Fullness of
your our consciousness—has been preparation for the Experience—
the tangible Experience of God, the Kingdom of Heaven, the
Miracle we’ve been searching for, rising into, and waiting for—
now felt happening in, and as, and throughout our being—an actual
felt experience of that Something happening within.
All the ‘work’ of pondering, contemplating, chewing on, liv-
ing with truth in our minds morning, noon and night—thinking
about truth, fertilizing our consciousness in this way, nurturing,
developing, ‘spiritualizing’ our consciousness—is not the Expe-
rience Itself but a preparation for the The Experience; the mak-
ing-ready of consciousness so that out of, as, and through your
prepared, lifted, purified state Truth is now able to spring forth
into tangibility as the tangible, visible good universe of you.
Without this preparation—this withdrawing attention and
belief from the ‘outer’ to the Truth ‘within’, thereby making the
mind peaceful, spacious and receptive like a sponge ready to be
filled with the bountiful waters of the ocean—no truth can be

THE THIRD TRUTH
Only God can evidence Itself... Only God can evidence It-
self... Only God can evidence Itself... Only God can evidence It-

Therefore ‘you’ and ‘I’ have to be still and silent and attentive
to God felt happening as the deep withinness, the pure Truth of
consciousness—your very consciousness and mine as the One
Truth Consciousness; the One, indivisible, fully embodied and
complete consciousness being All.
Only when we have sufficiently nourished, nurtured, fertil-
ized, and spiritually lifted the mind with the truth that God Is
the Infinitude, therefore All, therefore nothing ‘else’ is true,
nothing ‘else’ is real, nothing’ else’ has power or substance or
body or form or function or activity or amount or condition or
place (in the way we have done in the chapters of this book) is
consciousness able to be still and quiet, peaceful, sufficiently un-
worried, fearless, open and attentive to That which Is. Only then
is consciousness able to feel Truth happening within.

CHAPTER TEN
course that is true! Only God Is and God is always Whole, Com-
plete, ‘fully happening’, fully Present, Finished as the fullness of
Itself as You, me, and all.
But are you consciously aware of that ‘happening’ happening
as you? No! You are mostly aware of everything but Truth! You
are mostly aware of what appears to be—the mental, material,
physical, earthly way in which the Kingdom appears to be to the
‘human’ conceptual, 3-dimensional mind.
But now—with consciousness prepared and fertile—you are
able to be still and silent, receptive and expectant of the expe-
rience of That which Is—the happening of God happening as
Itself as You, then witnessed as your individual awareness—the
“Lord building your house”—a house abundant.
104
THE THIRD TRUTH
Nothing but God felt or heard happening within is your Good wit-
nessed—your demonstration.
If there is no inner experience of God felt happening there
is no good evident.
Thinking does not make it so. Knowledge—knowing truth—
does not make it so. Manipulating the mental, material or phys-
ical does not make it so. Only God Is therefore only God
experienced—felt—happening within is Good become cogniz-
able to 3-dimensional awareness. And when God becomes cog-
nizable to individual awareness miracles are witnessed in the
3-dimensional experience.
All the work of knowing truth deeper and more thoroughly,
more vividly, more concretely; all the work of lifting belief and
fixation away from the mental, material and physical, away from
time and space, process and method, amount and condition, av-

God Is, is preparation for the Experience Itself, never—as its
own self—the experience itself.
The mind must be still, rested, peaceful from belief in, con-
cern about, or effort for, the 3-dimensional appearance—the
way the Kingdom of Oneness appears to be through ‘human’ per-
ception; that which we name ‘mental, material and physical’.
In fact, we should from now drop the idea of ‘inner’ versus
‘outer’ for the awareness of the literal Kingdom of Oneness as
being the Only. How wonderful and freeing to lose the false no-
tion of ‘within’ versus ‘without’! There never has been such di-
vision! All is One; All is God; All is Omnipresence. Where,
therefore, does a ‘within’ versus a ‘without’ exist? Where in One-
ness, God, Omnipresence, does ‘two’ exist—two of anything,
including that duality deemed as ‘inner’ versus ‘outer’.
The more we grasp the truth that what we name the ‘human,
mental, material, physical’ experience of life is simply a 3-di-
mensional cognizance—consciousness; awareness; observance;
perception—of the Kingdom of Oneness; the One, infinite, di-
mensionless All; the I Am that is God Being All; the Infinite
Being Itself as You, Me, All—the more we will realize the truth
and practicality of omnipresence—All Life Form and Activity
everywhere present, fully Manifest and Complete, Whole and
Perfect, unconditionally manifest, visible, tangible; freely avail-
able to and as your experience and mine at every moment, as
the fulfillment of every condition, situation and place.
Wherever you place your awareness there is the Infinity and Om-
nipresence of Oneness. Forget completely the false idea of ‘within’

versus ‘without’. “When you make the two one, and when you
make the inner as the outer and the outer as the inner and the
above as the below, and when you make the male and the fe-
male into a single one, so that the male will not be male and the
female not be female... then shall you enter the kingdom.” Jesus,
Gospel of Thomas, saying 22.
Using the phrase “enter the kingdom” Jesus is referring to
the Kingdom of truthful Consciousness, the Kingdom of
Awareness that the I of being is God, Allness, Infinity, Om-
nipresence, The One Being being the being you are, the being
I am; the being All are—the Kingdom of Consciousness, of “I
Am that I am.”
All is One—One Being, One Body, One Form, One Condi-
tion, One Activity, One Amount, One Truth omnipresent as,
and wherever, individual awareness is placed—any place of indi-
vidual attention; your or my observance or focus of attention
happening at, or as, a specific point, person, thing, activity, con-
dition, or place.
“I live and move and have my being in God,” must be real-
ized as, “I live and move and have my being in omnipresent One-
ness; as omnipresent Oneness; as Omnipresence Itself happening as the being
I am, and my entire experience; my entire world and everything everywhere
of it.”
This is critical to your awareness now as we make ourselves
open and receptive to the One presence that Is, and witness It
as the Oneness of our here and now tangible experience.
Realize well: all the experience of God happening as our
being will not be evident 3-dimensionally if we are living a di-

*NOTE: we will continue to use the words 'within' and 'without'—'inner' and 'outer'—but al-
ways realize that these words refer to nothing more than a sense of 'within the body' or 'outside
of the body'; the 'withinness' of us and the expansiveness—'outer'—of us, and that truthfully,
actually, literally All is One; All is Omnipresence.

all this is of the mind. It is the activity of the mind only not of Truth
Itself.
It is good and necessary as preparation to have the mind be still and
peaceful, unattached and unconcerned with that which appears
to be. But it is never Truth Itself therefore “they labor in vain”
who rely on truth known by and of the mind.
Yet, “He that believeth on Me, as the scripture hath said, out
of his belly (being) shall flow rivers of living water.” John 7:38
“Whosoever drinks of this water (truth known by and of the
mind; materiality; physicality) shall thirst again: But whosoever
drinks of the water that I shall give him (Truth Itself ‘given’ to
you by Consciousness Itself felt happening as your conscious-
ness) shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall
be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.” John
4:13-14
The “well of water springing up into everlasting life” is the
One Substance, One Body, One Form, One Amount, One Free-
dom, One Joy of Being—God Itself experienced—as the Good
that All Is, in infinite variety of form and character, opportu-
nity and purpose fulfilled as It is observed and experienced .
Again Jesus instructs us of the One Experience: “For I say
unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the
kingdom of God. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and
said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: For I say unto
you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of
God shall come. And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake
it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for
you: this do in remembrance of me.” Luke 22: 16-19

There is no life in your universe but the One Life consciously ex-
perienced as happening as you, in the deep silence of your
‘human’ sense. As you consciously and consistently realize this
truth in the mind—which keeps the mind rested and still, unat-
tached and unconcerned with appearance—then only as you
consciously feel God happening within is more abundant and
richer life visible, tangible and perfectly formed as your body
and the body of all in your life.
“I Am come that you may have life, and that you may have
it more abundantly.” John 10:10
As you feel the God Experience happening within—the “I
Am”—the “kingdom of God coming”—you can be assured that
you are tangibly Whole, healed and forever untouchable by ill-
ness, disease or accident. You can be assured that you have re-
ceived your wealth and purpose, your safety and security, your
love and happiness. But you must feel the God Experience hap-
pening within before you have, as tangible form, the God Body,
the God Life, the God infinity of Supply, the God Safety and
Protection, the invincibility of Truth being everything You Are,
everything You Have, cognized as all good and omnipresent 3-
dimensional experience: person, thing, amount, activity, pur-
pose and resource.

“And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea,
125
CHAPTER TWELVE
Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great
calm.” Mark 4:39
The disciple Mark is describing a spiritual account not his-
torical or material. “He arose” means he “lifted consciousness,”
he “realized Truth,” he “raised his consciousness” to pure
Truth, ignoring all appearance in the knowledge of its noth-
ingness, acknowledging the Allness, Omnipotence, Omnipres-
ence and Omniscience of Truth. “He arose” is our “laboring
in the fields”—pondering, contemplating, chewing on Truth to
again lift consciousness to an illumined state.
Then he “rebuked the wind”. He “looked upon the appear-
ing discord and knew the Truth that Only God Is.”
Webster defines “rebuke” as:
1a: to criticize sharply : reprimand.
1b: to serve as a rebuke to.
2: to turn back or keep down : check.
3: an expression of strong disapproval : reprimand.
We can interpret: to sharply know the nothingness of dis-
cord and the Allness of Truth; to “reprimand” the untruthful
appearance; to “check” it; to “strongly disapprove” of it, or
“strongly ignore” it in knowing that Only Truth Is.
Then “he said unto the sea (consciousness), Peace, be still”.
He “told” his consciousness to be peaceful and still rather than
accepting a collective activity of discord. His consciousness be-
came filled with, and as, Peace and Stillness, Harmony and Ful-
fillment, Love and Calm.
He “demanded” truthful experience as his tangible conscious
environment, or atmosphere.
126
LIVING AS INFINITE BEING
“And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.” Always
the appearing environment reveals itself to be harmonious and
complete when Truth is consistently felt happening within, and
known as the Self-Inclusive Allness of all; God felt happening as
individual consciousness—”the Lord building the house”—
Truth being the One Substance, Form and Character of All ex-
perience.
Jesus was so completely filled with and as Truth that quickly
“the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.” The imagery of
discordant collective consciousness calmed down and became
peaceful and well in the presence of Oneness; of Truth Con-
sciousness. Such was his illumined consciousness—his living
awareness that All is God and none else; his living beingness as
God Itself with none other—that the disciples were amazed, “saying
one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind
and the sea obey him?”
The “manner of man” that “this world” and everything
everywhere of it “obeys” is the spiritual man, the illumined con-
sciousness that does not have God and man, world, or condition,
but just God—no thought, no power “of my own self ” but a still
and peaceful transparency of being—consciousness—that is the
window of Truth radiating universally as All Good, Peace, and
Harmony.
If the disciples had understood Jesus’ teaching they would
not have said, “What manner of man is this, that even the wind
and the sea obey him?” They would have realized they were
witnessing God Consciousness reveal It’s Harmony, It’s Truth
which unconditionally unveils harmonious consciousness, there-

the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fa-
thers to give thee.” Deuteronomy 7:13
As we finally recognize—literally and tangibly—that God Is,
that nothing ‘else’ is—therefore as our thoughts, our pondering,
our desire and our effort is continually to know more of God; to
be taught of God which is to experience the Presence of Truth
happening as our being, our all-inclusive Mind being All; to turn
to Truth, Consciousness for and as all; to seek the kingdom of
God, Truth, Spirit, the finished kingdom of Omniscience, Om-
nipresence, Omnipotence fully Manifest, Visible and Tangible
as and to Itself, Spiritual consciousness—we have discovered the
greatest secret of harmonious, whole and purposeful life.
We have discovered that True Life and everything of It is

their beauty, their bounty, their joy, their harmony, the entire
creation being the Oneness of Good that is God becoming vis-
ible and tangible as the transparency of personal self, the di-
vinity of Being, the illumined, Buddha, Christ consciousness,
tangibly opening everywhere as You, revealed as Its fullness for
all, at every step.
Indeed, “He will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee:
he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land,
thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine,
and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy
fathers to give thee.”
Your Being—All-inclusive of the 3-dimensional experience
called “this world”—is ever full to overflowing, fulfilled, con-
summated.
Our truthful Purpose is now clear and one-pointed: to give,
serve and share of our infinity and divinity of Being, in all ways
and of all things.

‘giving’ and ‘receiving’ being one and the same action, ever mul-
tiplying, ever revealing more of the infinity of Oneness being ex-
pressed; ‘given’.
Oneness cannot perform in any other way. Think; there
would have to be ‘twoness’ in order for there to be a giving
‘from’ within ‘to’ the without, the ‘giving’ being the expression,
the revealing, of good. There would have to be ‘two’ activities,
a cause and an effect, the giving triggering the receiving. This
cannot be—and is not—true or possible in Oneness, omnipres-
ence.
All is One. All is one expression witnessed. Oneness, om-
nipresence, does not have a ‘cause’ department versus an ‘ef-
fect’ department. Omnipresence is what it claims: All being One!
Not only All being One but All as One—One Consciousness,
One Expression, One Form, One Object, One Place, One Con-
dition.
As we heard loud and clear in Affluence of Infinity: bring all
the multitudes of your conceptual world into Oneness. Bring all
of your world and its infinity of names and conditions back here,
into the home of consciousness, into Oneness. Dissolve the end-
less variety of people, things, activities, amounts, avenues, meth-
ods, processes, conditions, and the whole of time and space in
which it all seems to operate and be subject to, into One, that One
being God, Truth, Spirit, Pure Consciousness, Omnipresence,
here, now.
Now tell me: where in the Oneness of Truth is there a ‘cause’
that triggers an ‘effect’? Where would there be a ‘giving inner’
that triggers a ‘giving back outer’? Of course there is not. All is
134
LIVING AS INFINITE BEING

CHAPTER TWELVE
filling forms of every place and situation as you are being the giv-
ing expression.
Giving Truthfully as Oneness is not a one-for-one deal! It’s a
one for two, or three, or five, or ten, or one hundred fact of
Truth. “He that heareth the word, and understandeth it, also
beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some
sixty, some thirty.” Matthew 13:23
The act of giving as all-inclusive Oneness is the “bearing fruit
and bringing it forth”, the revealing of the miracle of Life every-
where present as Wholesome, Boundless, Perfect, Free and Pur-
poseful.
You are never giving an ‘amount’ or a ‘type’ or ‘category’ of
anything even though materially it appears so. You are now al-
ways giving—therefore ‘receiving’; witnessing—the ever-greater
‘multiplication’ and tangibility of Infinity as all form.
In your living awareness of all-inclusive Oneness—’inner’
and ‘outer’ being the same One Place, One Environment, One
Being, You—when you give that giving evidences the revealing,
the ‘giving back’ of the world to you. Your environment opens
itself out, evermore beautifully and bountifully, as your con-
sciousness.
Remember, giving is the act of revealing more of the infinity of
substance and form which You are and have ‘within’, as the
Whole Oneness of You—the complete infinity of your all-in-
clusive Oneness. This looks like, from material sense, an ‘inner’
being versus an ‘outer’ world—an ‘inner’ being ‘giving’ to an
‘outer’ being and world. But the appearance is false. The Truth
is that Oneness reveals more and more of the infinity of Its
136
LIVING AS INFINITE BEING
137
CHAPTER TWELVE
the pouring out and the revealed blessing ‘coming back’ so abun-
dantly that there shall not be room to receive it, all being one ac-
tivity of revealing the Infinity of Being as All.
Do you see? Giving is receiving. Giving does not ‘trigger’ re-
ceiving. All is one and the same act, the same presence, the same infi-
nite form revealing ever more of Itself as It is expressed. The moment
you realize this beautiful truth giving becomes an addiction; giv-
ing becomes the only truthful, legitimate and unbounded way of
being, with greater, more beautiful, more bountiful, more mys-
tical and miraculous abundance of truth tangibly evident as every
act of giving, and every form evident.
As we give as the consciousness of all-inclusive Oneness our
‘giving’ is known and evidenced as the revealing of the infinity of
Truth in and as what we name the ‘tangible outer’; the ‘mater-
ial’ miracles revealed as tangibly present, as and by the act of giv-
ing. The miracle of Life is not an ‘effect’ of a ‘cause’; It is the
expression, ‘givingness’, of Truthful Being.
My friends, take heed. Understand the miracle of Oneness,
the miracle of You—Truth—and be It. Be the fullness of your
Truth freely and ceaselessly pouring forth the infinity of Your-
Self, in all ways and forms, no matter whether the mind refers
to these as ‘intangible’ or ‘tangible’. Then witness the miracles
evidenced all over your kingdom; witness the miracle you are for
and as the good and union of all; the Principle of Truth evi-
denced as your pouring forth—revealing—the Wholeness of
Truthful Being.
This is why Jesus told us: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He
that believeth on me (the All-Inclusive Oneness of Truth), the
138
LIVING AS INFINITE BEING
139
CHAPTER TWELVE
the very act of doing so—the miraculous “works” of Truth are re-
vealed right at the place or as the condition where untruth
seemed to exist.
There is no limit to what you witness as you know YourSelf
and All as one hundred percent spiritual being living in and as the
Spiritual Universe of Self—the kingdom of God with ‘none
else’ existing; the All-Inclusive Oneness of God Being All.
140
LIVING AS INFINITE BEING
likeness of God Itself reacts and responds ‘to you’—as your spiri-
tual Oneness and Completeness—by giving ‘back’ to you, ful-
filling your Purpose of Being in order that you may give more
abundantly; in order that your life may be fulfilled as the savior
and truth of the world. “I am come that you may have life, and
have it more abundantly.”
In this way—this way only—can we look into the eyes of Jesus
and answer “Yes” when he asks, “Do you love me?” You re-
member his answer to Simon when the disciple said, Yes mas-
ter, you know that I love you. “Then feed my sheep.” Three
times Jesus had to ask Simon the same question because the dis-
ciple intellectually understood Truth but hadn’t yet awakened to
Life’s one True purpose and fulfillment: giving of oneSelf, in all
ways, at all times.
Truthful being is giving, period. There is no other truthful
reason for being. Without giving to—loving; feeding; supply-
ing—your kingdom, “this world”, we cannot truthfully say we
love God, Spirit, Truth. We cannot truthfully claim to be seek-
ing God; we cannot truthfully claim to be seeking spiritual awak-
ening. Only in the tangible act of being Love—which means giving
the gifts of Love, for Love ceaselessly gives of Its Self—can we
say “I love you”; I truly am seeking by tangibly being Truth to the
best of my daily ability.
Indeed, “Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure,
pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men
give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete
withal it shall be measured to you again.”
Yes! Because the ‘you’ that is ‘giving’ and the ‘you’ that is
141
CHAPTER TWELVE
being ‘given unto’ is the very same you experiencing the very same
act—infinitely and forever opening, revealing its omnipresence
in greater, richer, more bountiful and beautiful degrees, giving
of itself—revealing of Self—in ‘multiplied’ ways because ‘you’
are that whole Oneness of infinity expressing, giving, being. You
are the infinity of Omnipresence ever revealing, blossoming, and
experiencing more of Itself right here, as the very place, the
very being that is you, as all.
Yes, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me,
the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these
shall he do.”
This is the key to Heaven, the Universe, the World, You. This
is the sacred key which unlocks the deepest Truth secrets, un-
veiling and revealing Its greatest treasures and highest purpose,
giving of Its Wholeness, God’s glory, God’s fullness, God’s You,
God’s All.
