Manifestation, the action of Spirit upon itself. | | \n| A PRINCIPLE THAT CAN BE PROVEN | 4 | \n| \"It is done unto you even as you believe.\" | | \n| THE WORD GOING FORTH | 5 | \n| The word establishes itself as law. | | \n| WHY AND WHAT IS MAN? | 7 | \n| Man is the outcome of the desire of the Spirit to make something which expresses the same life that It feels. | | \n| THE LAW OF OUR LIVES | 8 | \n| We are centers of creative thought activity in the Universal Mind. Unlimited life is latent in man. | | \n| MAN'S PART | 10 | \n| Through harmony with Universal Mind man's word becomes the law of his life. Man not a creator but his thought is creative. | | \n| p. vi | | \n| BONDAGE AND FREEDOM | 13 | \n| Ignorance is the only bondage. Freedom is the law of belief. | | \n| THE WORD | 14 | \n| As God's word is in the Universe so man's word is in his own life. | | \n| THE MAN WHO HAS ARRIVED | 17 | \n| The one who can control his thinking is he to whom time and place makes no difference. | | \n| THE POWER WE HAVE WITHIN US | 17 | \n| We have as much creative power as we allow to flow through us. | | \n| INDIVIDUAL IDEAS | 18 | \n| Have power to manifest as long as held. | | \n| THE REASON FOR THE UNIVERSE | 19 | \n| MIND IN ACTION | 19 | \n| All Law is mind in action, both Cosmic and in the individual. Life externalizes at the level of our thought. | | \n| ACTION AND REACTION | 20 | \n| Law of cause and effect always operative. | | \n| ARRIVING AT A HIGH CONSCIOUSNESS | 21 | \n| Have faith and willingness to believe in the law of life to do for us. | | \n| p. vii | | \n| OUTER SUGGESTIONS | 22 | \n| Are under our own control. We must learn to govern life by inner realization. Working in union with the power of good. | | \n| THE USE OF THE GREATER CONSCIOUSNESS | 24 | \n| The inner realization that good is always with us results in health, happiness and prosperity. | | \n| THE GREATER CONSCIOUSNESS | 26 | \n| The realization of completion brings us into the enlarged consciousness. | | \n| THE PERFECT UNIVERSE | 30 | \n| We must come to realize that we are living in a perfect universe peopled with perfect ideas; it-appears to us as we harmonize with it. | | \n| ABOUT STRUGGLE KARMA | 32 | \n| The great law of life is thinking and becoming. Karma is the result of false thinking. The only escape is to know what the truth is and think it. | | \n| INTRODUCTORY | 35 | \n| THE SAME POWER USED IN TWO WAYS | 37 | \n| HEALING THE SICK | 39 | \n| DENIALS | 40 | \n| THE USE OF AFFIRMATIONS | 42 | \n| THE HIGHEST ATTITUDE OF MIND | 43 | \n| NON-RESISTANCE | 43 | \n| BE ALIVE | 44 | \n| BE HAPPY | 45 | \n| LIVE IN THE PRESENT | 46 | \n| SEE THE GOOD IN ALL THINGS | 47 | \n| BE EXPECTANT | 49 | \n| EXPANDING THOUGHT | 49 | \n| POWER OF TREATMENT | 50 | \n| REPEATING A TREATMENT | 50 | \n| IMPERSONAL HEALING | 51 | \n| PROSPERITY | 54 | \n| WHAT IS THE SPIRITUAL MIND? | 54 | \n| THE CHURCH OF GOD | 57 | \n| THE PATH OF PROSPERITY | 58 | \n| THE WAY OF THE SPIRIT | 60 | \n| THE LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS | 63 | \n| PRACTICE FOR PROSPERITY | 65 | \n| CONCLUSION | 67 | \n| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS | 71 | \n| DEFINITIONS | 77 |","title":"Creative Mind: Contents","type":"page"}
