In your last four lessons you were acquainted with: 1. The PRANAYAM Breathing Exercise. 2 The MEMORY DEVELOPING BREATH. 3. RIGHT UNDERSTANDING. 4, The technique of going into MEDITATION. It is hoped you have clearly understood the above and are practising the two breathing exercises regularly as instructed. Also, now you have a clear concept of the arrangement of the Cosmos and you know that without Right Understanding we are unable to proceed further. The affirmation following the EE | pe +¢+¢ COPYRIGHT RESERVED +++ 5 Memory Developing Breath is powerful in its effect, if it is properly recited from memory with FEELINGS. On the subject of Meditation, you are counselled to carefully and seriously note that these early lessons are guiding you to develop the abilities of (a) living continuously and (b) rejuvenation. We have to get our minds to accept the truth (that irrespective of what appears at present) we can greatly expand the span of our lives, and live as long as we desire. Without such a conviction, it is impossible to imagine ourselves realising in life all that we desire to achieve. The lessons are given to you for actual PRACTICE, rather than mere intellectual study. There is one thing of utmost importance and that is. YOU GET A CLEAR CONVICTION, A CLEAR CONVICTION THAT IT IS POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO LIVE AS LONG AS YOU DESIRE TO LIVE. THAT IT IS POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO ACHIEVE WHATEVER YOU HAVE SET YOUR MIND UPON, SO LONG AS IT APPEALS TO YOUR REASON AS A POSSIBILITY. In the process of living - First... We THINK Second... We FEEL Third... We ACT or We DO. Now as you are listening to me and reading this lesson, you may have set your mind upon some great achievement that you intend to carry out. You hope Brahmavidya will show you how to do it. You must cultivate that feeling. Think of it every moment EE 45 jem that you can. But you must not stop at merely thinking about it; you must be convinced that you can do it, for you must FEEL THAT YOU CAN DO IT. The difference between a mere intellectual conception of a fact and a deep spiritual realisation of a fact are as far apart as the poles. You must be really CONVINCED. You know because you feel that it is possible for you. What you have to learn is the law by which it is attained. This conviction must, therefore, be firmly established in your Mind. Also this conviction must pass from the mental sphere to the FEELINGS. Then you not only feel that to be a certainty, but the truth is - YOU KNOW THAT YOU FEEL IT TO BE A CERTAINTY. Do you see the difference? But you must know that you FEEL it... You are alive with the feeling of it... It is burning itself into your consciousness... your whole being is alive with the truth that you feel. You will make of your life exactly what you want it to be. Get this clear in your mind. You can greatly extend the span of your life. You can live as long as you truly desire to. You can do what you truly desire to do. You can achieve WHATEVER you desire to achieve... This clear conviction must be unshakeably and fully established. Without such a conviction it is not possible to proceed far. Therefore practise the following, with FEELING: Close your eyes. Declare audibly as | read out to you. ° | AM THE MASTER OF MY OWN LIFE... | WILL TO DO WHATEVER | DESIRE TO DO. Rest. Now, say it again with more FEELING... coeenmemnnmcammecscmmcenss 46 pees ° | AM THE MASTER OF MY OWN LIFE... | WILL TO DO WHATEVER | DESIRE TO DO. Say it as if you know that you are the master of your own life, for no one else is; say it as if you FEEL that you know that you are the master of your own life. Now continue... ° | REJOICE! | DID NOT FEEL THIS BEFORE, BUT NOW | KNOW IT, | FEEL WITH ALL THE POWER OF MY BEING THAT | AM THE MASTER OF MY OWN LIFE AND NOW | WILL BEGIN TO TRULY LIVE IT. IMAGINATION AND REASON There should be no conflict between the IMAGINATION and the REASON. Do not mistake to consider one for the other. It may not have occurred to you that REASON and IMAGINATION are totally different faculties in man - REASON CANNOT CREATE; IT CANNOT. The IMAGINATION CREATES and that is all that it can and does do. The Reasoning faculty reasons and makes decisions. That is all it does and its work ends there. Now let us follow the process of Thinking. Not only must the Reason see that the Consciousness FEELS the certainty of living continuously, but the conviction is still to pass a stage further into IMAGINATION. . IMAGINATION is the CREATIVE FACULTY of you and me. It is this faculty that causes us to do all that we do, and to be all that we are. Your own imagination is the creative faculty of the INFINITE FACULTY, which dwells within. None of us can do anything at all without the idea first coming to us through eens |] eee
