BETTER HEALTH
Eat less, eat finely ground nuts, eat more raw vegetables, and eat abundantly of fruits.
And exercise! Walk daily. Take an early morning walk to keep your heart in good condition.
Cheerfulness is very important to health. It is the best antiseptic that you can have — plus the thought that you are all right.
Vigorous rubbing of the body with the hands generates life force.
MAGNETISM
When you are talking to others, hold the eyes of the one you are talking to, and speak with all the force of truth and the love of God behind your words. And when you shake hands, do so consciously, so that you give the magnetism of your sincere friendship. Try to help that person. Be positive and develop your own spiritual magnetism, and you will have the power to change others. With the eyes you can convey that magnetism. Just look at the one you want to help, and think, "God's blessing is flowing through me." Never feel you are the doer.
INTUITION
Man's highest faculty is not reason but intuition: apprehension of knowledge derived immediately and spontaneously from the soul, not from the fallible agency of the senses or of reason.
HOW TO CHANGE OTHERS
Let your example be the way to change others lives. Reform yourself and you will reform thousands.
SUFFERING
Suffering is a good teacher to those who are quick and willing to learn form it. But it becomes a tyrant to those who resist and resent.
MIRACLES
The law of miracles is operable by any man who has realized that the essence of creation is light. A master is able to employ his divine knowledge of light phenomena to project instantly into perceptible manifestation ubiquitous light atoms. The actual form of the projection (whatever it be: a tree, a medicine, a human body) is determined by the yogi's wish and by his power of will and visualization.
PATIENCE
Strive ceaselessly; never be impatient. Once the finality is achieved, incarnation of troubles will be over in a second, just as when light is admitted within a room that has been locked for decades, the darkness vanishes instantly.
Only God!
