Chapter 1 – Law and Its Operation
• THE world, and all within it, is man’s conditioned consciousness objectified.
• Knowledge of the law of consciousness and the method of operating this law will enable you to accomplish all you
desire in life.

the subconscious
• First conceiving an idea and then impressing the idea conceived on the subconscious – all things evolve out
of consciousness; and without this sequence, there is not anything made that is made.
• The conscious impresses the subconscious, while the subconscious expresses all that is impressed upon it.
• The subconscious does not originate ideas, but accepts as true those which the conscious mind feels to be
true and, in a way known only to itself, objectifies the accepted ideas
• Through man power to imagine and feel and his freedom to choose the idea he will entertain, man has
control over creation.
• Control of the subconscious is accomplished through control of your ideas and feelings.
• The mechanism of creation is hidden in the very depth of the subconscious, the female aspect or womb of
creation

By control of feeling is not meant restraint the feeling bad
the feeling or suppression of your feeling, but rather good,
the disciplining of self to imagine and
entertain only such feeling as contributes to indifferent
your happiness.
• Therefore, the man who does not control his feeling may easily impress the subconscious with undesirable
states.
• By control of feeling is not meant restraint or suppression of your feeling, but rather the disciplining of self
to imagine and entertain only such feeling as contributes to your happiness.
• Never entertain an undesirable feeling, nor think sympathetically about wrong in any shape or form. Do not
dwell on the imperfection of yourself or others.
• What you do not want done unto you, do not feel that it is done unto you or another. This is the whole law
of a full and happy life. Everything else is commentary.
• Every feeling makes a subconscious impression and, unless it is counteracted by a more powerful feeling
of an opposite nature, must be expressed.

• Be careful of your moods and feelings, for there is an unbroken connection between your feelings and your
visible world.
• Your body is an emotional filter and bears the unmistakable marks of your prevalent emotions.
• Emotional disturbances, especially suppressed emotions, are the causes of all disease.
• To feel intensely about a wrong without voicing or expressing that feeling is the beginning of disease – dis-
ease – in both body and environment
• Do not entertain the feeling of regret or failure for frustration or detachment from your objective results in
