BEINGNESS
I think the word
that describes God better than any other single word is “Beingness.” God is all
Beingness. We are all Beingness pretending we are a tiny part of It, a limited
body-mind. When you look within, you will see that you are all Beingness. Beingness
is God! Beingness is also Awareness Consciousness. They are the same thing.
Later on, you’ll see them as identical: Beingness, Awareness Consciousness. So
be your Self and there never will be a problem. Seeing a problem in the world
is trying to be a limited ego-body-mind. If you think you have a problem, you
do. If you will just accept that God is All, God is Perfect, that that is all
there is, and look at Perfection, that is all you will ever meet with! You have
to wipe out the words “problem,” “can’t,” “don’t,” “won’t,” — all negative
words. In the future when man is in a state of harmony, these words will
disappear.
The higher you
go, the more you see the Perfection and therefore the less you see problems.
The more one sees problems, the lower one is. What everyone talks about is
problems. The people who see them want you to see the way they see, and will
tell you that you are wrong. This is one thing you must be on guard against. As
you grow, those who are not up to you will try to pull you down to where they
are. Let them think you are wrong. You know you are right. Do not argue. It is
fruitless. It is not how much you recognize a problem that shows unselfishness.
It is how much you see that there is no problem, and help others see that there
is only Perfection that shows unselfishness. This way you offer help; you’re
very constructive and unselfish. You just feel love — you do not necessarily
have to do anything.

Love — and your
thoughts are positive. Thought is far more powerful than action. It is the
basis of and effects action. It is the initiator. It comes before and
determines action. A realized being sitting in a cave somewhere all by himself
is doing more good for the world than organizations of action. He is aiding
everyone, as his help is being subconsciously received by all.

Now we are back
to what we were talking about before: the bottom state is inaction, the middle
state is action, the top state is inaction. The bottom state is one of
apathetic inertia. It’s destructive. It just wants to stop everything, actually
destroy everything. The top state lets everything be just the way it is because
everything is perfect, and anyone in this state powerfully projects this
mentally to everyone. The middle state is the action state which moves you from
the bottom toward the top state of equilibrium and tranquility.

As you move up,
those who are not as far along as you are will try to pull you down to where
they are. It is sort of a proving ground, or a testing, to see how much those
things bother you. It tests your conviction. Where is your conviction if you go
with them? If you go with them, your tendency is to believe more the way they
do.
 
KEYS TO
BEINGNESS
Desire for ego
approval makes it seem easier to go along with the world. You will find out otherwise.
You have been one of the mob, haven’t you? You’ve been like them. It’s not
easy. No, the right way is easier. Do you see that? The right way is letting go
and letting God and then everything falls into line perfectly — no effort. But
when you have to do it, it is not God — it is you, the ego, wanting to do, to
change things, correct this world, and so forth. Some people ask if a mantram
or something like that is the best thing to remember when these things come up
that way?
Affirmations are
always good. A mantram is an affirmation that’s repeated again and again. It is
even more effective, however, to let go of your ego reactions. So, do whatever
will help you to do and be what you think you should do and be. Seek who and
what you are, know your Self. This is the very best thing to do and be. There
have been moments when you have let go and felt your real Self. How does it
feel? You could have it all the time.
Stay that way
that’s all. Be what you are! You are infinite, omniscient, omnipotent, right
here and now. Be That! Stop being this limited, miserable, little ego. If you
want to help the world the most, help yourself grow, and you will do far more
than you could by being involved in the world. The more you are capable of
loving, the more you are helping the world. Parliaments cannot right the world,
but enough people loving can. The President of the United States must
necessarily represent the sum total consciousness, the sum total thinkingness,
of all the people of the United States added together. The world out there is
only our collective consciousness.

The principle is
that divine law supersedes man-made law. Consciousness, thinkingness determine everything.
So if we do not like what’s happening to us in the world all we have to do is
change our consciousness — and the world out there changes for us! There’s no
end to problems in the world. If you try to find the end you go on and on
forever and ever solving problems in the world and you will always find more
and more. As long as you are conscious of problems, they exist. Only when you
discover the real you, will you discover an end to problems. It is as if you
put your hand in a fire and say, “Ouch, it’s hot! My hand is burning! Boy, do I
have a problem!” And then put your hand back in the fire and so on and so on.
Until one day you see that you are doing it and you stop. If you have a
problem, you’re putting your hand into a problem and yelling, “It hurts!” and
acting as though you’re not putting your hand into it. You act as though you
are not doing it. But you are. So that problem is in your consciousness. It is
in your mind. Change your mind, change your consciousness and immediately that
problem is gone. Try it and you’ll see that it’s so. And when you are by
yourself, stop being what you are not, a limited body and mind, and just be what
you are — an infinite, totally free, grand and glorious being, whole and
complete
 
DO ONTO OTHERS AS YOU WILL ACCEPT THEM IN RETURN. DO YOUR BEST AND LIVE THEREST TAKING CARE FOR ITSELF

faith, professing all these things does not do it. Having them does it. The
fact that she has troubles is proof that she does not have the conviction of
God because God is All, God is Perfect; and if God is All and God is Perfect,
everything must be perfect, and that leaves no place for imperfection or
troubles.If you take that
attitude, so be it! It is the feeling that I am not the doer and that I let go
and let it happen. How can we tell when we’re being the ego?

effort is extreme, you have to more or less go the other way anyway. The more
the effort, the greater the ego. However, you are going to use effort until you
are fully realized. Now, there will be times when you will use no effort and
everything will fall perfectly into line for you; at these times you will be
your Self.Of course, some
people are afraid that this type of thing makes you indolent. But, indolence is
an action, a negative action. It is the act of holding oneself from moving.

>To achieve the
actionless state, you begin by letting go of your ego more and more. You do
this because under present conditions, you cannot do it totally. If you could,
you would be fully realized. But if you keep letting go of the ego, you will
eventually drop it, and then you will be the witness rather than the doer. Does
this make sense?
>
>
>Be not the doer.
Let it happen. It’s God’s world, whatever is happening, let Him do it! Still
the question arises, “How do we get rid of problems?”
>First, you must
realize that the moment you say, “I have a problem,” you are stuck; you are
making it real! You cannot get rid of the problem, because you are making it
real. You have got it. This does not mean that when you have problems you
should say, “There is no problem at all,” and the problem will vanish.
>
>
>If you say,
“There is no problem,” they won’t vanish because you’re saying, “There is no
problem.” You are mentally holding the problem in mind and therefore sustaining
it. Instead, you must erase the problem from your mind. Let it go. Know that
everything is perfect; then the problem becomes necessarily non-existent. You
see, life can be totally effortless. There is no effort in life whatsoever when
we are being our natural Self. But we’re trying to be a limited ego and that
takes effort. It takes effort to be limited when your natural state is
unlimited. The more you try to be limited, the more effort it takes. To be your
unlimited Self takes no effort, just like the woman I talked about earlier.
When she gets to the extreme, she lets go and everything straightens out — with
no effort. When she tries and tries, things get worse and worse. But when she
gives up and lets go, things resolve. Still people ask, “Doesn’t she have to go
out and look for a job? Doesn’t she have to go to an agent? She can’t just sit
down and wait.”And I say all she has to do is to let go and let God. Then, even
if she has locked herself in a chamber somewhere, the things would have come to
her.
>

>LETTING GO
OF DOER-SHIP
>You do not sit
down and wait — you do not do anything. Just let go of the sense of doership.
You just know that everything is perfect and then the slightest thought you
have will come into being quickly. There’s no limitation on God, on the Self.
Whatever you think will come into being if you let go, because you are invoking
your infinite power, God, your Self. Nothing can stop it! You do not have to
struggle to get some action. In fact, it’s just the opposite. Lock yourself in
a chamber and pad-lock it and if you will do what I am saying, you will find
that what you want will be effected. It has to be. Nothing can stop it!
Omnipotence is invoked! If this is true, then what is prayer for? What does
praying mean? Praying is for those who need praying. When you know what you
know — to whom are you praying? If you are That, why do you have to pray to It?
>
>
>Praying admits
duality. “I” pray to “God.” Instead, maintain your Oneness! However, when one
does pray, it is best to pray for one thing only. Pray for more wisdom, so that
you eliminate all need for any prayer, for any asking. Most people in the world
today need to pray. But prayer admits duality; God is out there. And we should
know that God is within. Even though Jesus said, “The Kingdom of God is
within,” we still look for God without, and He’s not out there —He’s only
within. He turns out to be our very own Beingness.
>
>
>The “I” of us,
with nothing added to it, is the God we seek. When you say “I am something”
that isn’t It, that isn’t God. But just pure “I” and only “I”, — that is God. That
is why it is said that God is closer than flesh. It is “I” and how close is
“I?” It’s closer than flesh. It is God, your very own Self! Just hold on to the
word “I” only. “I...” and you’ll become more exhilarated. Try it when you’re alone.
Just “I...” and not “I am a body, I am a mind,” but “I...” that is Being.
