Divinity Of Man

As human beings we should not develop,either consciously or unconsciously, that strange attitude and metal idea that we are superior to all other beings on the face of the earth. There is nothing that will interfere with the progress in life of the average individual so much as having a degree of superiority, unless perhaps it is the development of an inferiority complex .

  But there is no reason either why we should not understand, frankly and honestly , the real facts. The human being is the highest form an highest development of the creative force in the world. The human form was gradually evolved and created to be the living image of God . This does not mean the image of a personal God, and it does not mean having the form, figure and body of a God, it means having the spiritual image, the spiritual qualities and the spiritual properties of the God Consciousness in our own physical organism and in our minds and souls.

      We possess by birth and by divine right, and are gifted with more higher evolved abilities and powers than any other God's creatures on earth. The fact that we can talk, think, analyse and do things with our fingers and hands and with our bodies that other animals creatures cannot do easily, demonstrates our highest development. There are also many other qualities we posses that are lying dormant which are not fully awakened and are not often used, so that the average individual is never more than forty five percent efficient as compared with what he or she could be if the will was there.

       Many people have been surprise by the strange abilities , powers and antics of my little pet dog.We casually remark sometimes that the things he does and the way in which he does them would indicate that he is almost human.And yet that is not fair statement because that dog, with all of his wonderful abilities, or the best trained dog and the most developed dog or cat or horse or other animal that ever lived, could not being to approach a human being in the special faculties and abilities which human beings posses.

    Of course, it is true that all animals and all living creatures have some degree of an unevolved soul. Human beings are not the only living things that have souls, but they are the only creatures that have individual souls that are associated with the utmost of divine wisdom and intelligence .



                    Animal Sensitivity

My little dog has learned to do things which a child might do, with the same understanding and the same joy of doing them, and with the same good motive and purpose. And he has some faculties that the average human beings has not even tried to develop. For example , he sense very quickly and efficiently when anyone in the home is worried or deeply concerned about something, or is perplexed or tired. Very quickly he shows his sympathy and reveals that he sense a strange condition .

    If anyone in my home was to be stricken with some illness and lying in the bed with death very close at hand.I know that this little dog would quickly sense the approach of transition and being to cry and wail. He would sense a gradual reduction in the aura of the sick person and know instinctively and intuitively that a cosmic and physical condition was manifesting. Very few human beings have developed that degree of sensitivity. And of course the dog can sense many other things too which we might sense also if we tool time or the trouble to develop the faculties with which we wee born. But with all of his intellect, and with all of his cooperation in being trained and developed by me, he is still far from possessing the sort of divine intelligence and understanding that a human being possesses .
 

                     Latent Wisdom

Every human being possess an inner library of knowledge and wisdom and each one of us is born with certain abilities and powers that are like sparks waiting to be fanned into flames. But we make our way through life without developing these abilities or awakening these qualities ,and without consulting this great storehouse of wisdom, until one day we find a necessity for doing so.

     Then we join some movement or come under some instructor and begin an intense period of serious study and practice . We try to do in eight or 10 years what we should have been doing for 20 or 25 years previously .We try to crowd into few years of life all of the development and study that should have been gradual and helpful in our progress .


                     God Consciousness

It is this divine quality , this God Consciousness in us that distinguishes human beings from all other creatures of the animal kingdom. It is what God intended in the beginning when, after He had created all the other things in the universe and all the living creatures, He decided that man should be created in His own divine image. We were the last, the highest product of the creative consciousness of God, and throughout all the ages, human beings have continued to be the special concern of God in His process of evolution .

    No matter what else God may do, and what else He may create in the universe, whatever is good and helpful and powerful, He has reserved for us and continues to confer upon us His most beneficent and bountiful blessings. That is why humanity has evolved and brought about what we call civilization. We may attribute to ourselves, to our thinking , and to our mental capacity, many of the great improvements in life, but at the back of our own ability lies the divine inspiration which God has placed there and continue to place there.

     We have today attained only a small degree of what we will become through the passage of eons of time.But right now, our highly evolved human race represent the most learned, most powerful, and most developed qualities of God Consciousness. Yet it requires humanity's cooperation,understanding and willingness to complete what God has started.


                   Inner Exploration

As long as we continue to ignore our divine side and the divine wisdom and highly specialized faculties and abilities we have, as long as we refuse to use them or exercise them, we will remain in all our mental and worldly affairs nothing more than creatures of the animal kingdom .

        We can raise ourselves consciously to the degree of development we have inwardly.We must strive to do so and must understand and comprehend our beings. With all worlds we are trying to explore, in the heavens and throughout the universe, with all of the unknown lands of the sea that we seek to explore and excavate, with all of the planet and starry clusters that we want to investigate and become familiar with, we continue to ignore the greatest filed , the greatest world of exploration; the inner, divine self .

     Throughout the world today, the changing condition in the material world are forcing upon men and women the necessity of finding relief and protection , of finding salvation, strength and power in something that is not of the earthly element. More and more their thoughts inward.And, as they develop their divine consciousness, they become greater masters of their own lives and affairs.For too many centuries people have pinned their faith in the material things of life. Religions say we should put our faith In God, but as mystics , we say that we should put our faith in God consciousness, possess within ourselves and which remain more or less undeveloped in all human beings .

     We have seen the worldly elements and the worldly qualities and valuations depleted, ruined, destroyed, and made of no value . But the one thing that survives and come to our rescue is our spiritual and mental powers and abilities . Until we come to recognized this to greatest degree and make ourselves in every sense "living image of God " we will be slave to the worldly elements and victims of worldly circumstances .
