- The body and the world
The body and the world are of the same substance.
And yet there is this apparent movement within the world.
It is like a stream inside the ocean.
The water of the stream is also ocean - but there is special activity.
- Thank God
After a period of intense communion, always offer a prayer for the sick etc.
If you have meditated upon the oneness, feeling that you are one with all, then the prayer will be immediately fruitful - though you should not anticipate the result.
Before getting up, thank God for the gift of human birth, intense longing for liberation, and opportunities of spiritual practice.
- Tension-appeasement-release
The Bliss of the Self is hidden beneath the veil of ignorance - hence the pleasure hunt commences and concludes above this veil.
Only when this is calmed does one go deeper and discover the fountain of Bliss.
- Jesus and Calamity
Not a single component part of his nature did the material world measure aright.
Even his righteousness and purity did not hinder men from saying: 'He is a glutton and a friend of the impure, and Beelzebub is his patron.'
Mary Baker Eddy in 'Science and Health.'
- Duty and Service
When a nurse and a doctor serve the sick, it is their duty, for which they are paid.
They earn no special merit. If they neglect it, they incur sin.
If one who is not a nurse or a doctor does not feel inclined to serve, he does not incur sin - only he is hard-hearted. If he does serve, he earns great merit.
