About this lesson

Reflecting decades of work, Herman students Anna Racicot and Gabrielle Herbertson organized, edited and compiled two books containing hundreds of Herman’s lessons. The books, Earth Journey I and Earth Journey II, are the source of most of the weekly lessons published on this site.
Each of the books contains more than 100 photos of Herman’s paintings, an introduction detailing the history and suggested use of the lessons, and an appendix that contains additional information about the communities practices.
Both books are available for sale through the Earth Journey organization’s online store.
A Herman Rednick Lesson
It is written, “There went up a mist from the earth, and the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. And man became a living soul.”*
The earth is covered by the great cloak of maya. Thus everyone is subject to a state of hypnosis. This is part of the plan; otherwise you could not face the spiritual reality with your present state of mind and body. At the same time there is the great reality that within your heart is the spark of fire. Thus you have the potential to fan it into the living Christ within.
Whatever you think about, that vibration shall grow within you. if you live in a state of anger and resentment you increase the hypnosis and the vision of the path disappears. If you become conscious of the spiritual reality within and hold on to this spark of fire, the old thoughtforms or maya shall fall away and you shall move steadily toward the Christ.
mantra:
I live in the reality of the Christ within. Through love and service the hypnosis shall fall away.
* Genesis 2:6-7 “
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.”
