“Subconscious desire arouses the latent faculties with the mind and difficult problems seem to solve themselves”

“All mental discovery and attainment are the result of desire plus concentration; desire is the strongest mode of action; the more persistent the desire the more authoritative the revelation.”

As I have been going through the Master Key Experience, what has been missing for me is desire and the sense of my purpose.

I have a lot of things going on and have been engaged in a lot of decisions without having desire and purpose as the foundation of my decisions. I’m still asking what is my definite major purpose? What gives me joy?

I know the value of this course and I know that I am nature’s greatest miracle. I know that I am here for a purpose and that and that purpose is to grow into a mountain.

Now is the time to discover that purpose and to practice concentration as if my life depends upon it because it does.

Last week, concentrating on kindness was awesome for me. Hugs bring me joy and everyone who knows me well knows that I ask for hugs and I’m nurtured by them.

My word for this week was decisiveness and as I start a new chapter of my life next week and it is showing up as things to do and decisions to make, but without the desire as the foundation.

I haven’t personally seen much of it. Should I take this? What should I do with this? This is the last Shabbat in my house and I’m celebrating it with my family.

We used things I’ve had for close to 60 years and it helped me to see that some things do give me joy and some things are just things. Getting in touch with what brings me joy is so very important.

It helps to chisel away on many years of cement and see what it’s really important to me. Time for the cement to fall off in big chunks as I start a new phase of my life.

I am grateful for the requirement to write a blog each week. It gives me an opportunity to reflect on what’s going on in my life. It helps me to see the ground I’ve taken and helps me to see the gaps.
