LIVING IN A STATE OF REALITY

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 disap- pears. If you become conscious of the spiritual reality with- in and hold on to this spark of fire, the old thoughtforms or maya shall fall away and you shall move steadily toward the Christ.

Suggested alternate manta from Hidden Door of Reality pg 226
O, Divine Mother,
my heart is one with thy soul being
and i feel the shower of cosmic light
when I am one with thy spirit.
Hold my hand, O Mother Divine,
as I tread the path through this earth of Thine.

Mantra:
I live in the reality of the Christ within. Through love and service the hypnosis shall fall away.

HERMAN REDNICK PRACTICES FOR THE PATH OF LOVE

Herman Rednick Practices. 

One central issue that many students of Herman faced was how to fulfill the fundamental Christ instruction: Love one Another.  Often a student would come to Herman for guidance on how to resolve a problem they were experiencing for a family member, parent or friend.  “Send the a beam of love” he would reply.  “But I’m doing that” most students would reply.  To which he always responded: “Love more.”  How exactly do we do that?

Herman fundamental practices described by the editors in the introductions of the Earth Journey Books.
