Lesson 183. I call upon God\u2019s Name and on my own.<\/h4>\n<\/header>\n
\n
\n

Let us remember our current goals.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Widen the horizons of our vision<\/li>\n
  • Take direct approaches to uncover the blocks that keep our vision narrow<\/li>\n
  • Lift those blocks, however briefly, in order to experience the sense of liberation that comes when the blocks are removed<\/li>\n
  • Intensify our motivation for freedom<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Today\u2019s lesson gives us the opportunity to practice these goals in silence. Today\u2019s lesson asks us to \u201cPractice but this today; repeat God\u2019s Name slowly again and still again.\u201d<\/p>\n

    As we recently discussed, we use a mantra as a means of removing attention from thought and returning it to awareness of our true nature. We are asked to spend today repeating the Name of God, remembering that His Name is also our own.\u00a0 The best way to practice today\u2019s lesson is to choose a mantra that will bring your attention back to the stillness within, if only for a moment.<\/p>\n

    You may want to use your spiritual aspiration. You may want to use the mantra given in \u201cInner Ramana,\u201d \u201cI am that I am.\u201d You may want to start your day by asking Inner Wisdom to suggest a mantra for you.<\/p>\n

    Once you have chosen your mantra, keep it with you throughout the day. As you practice your meditation:<\/p>\n

    “Become oblivious to every name but His. Hear nothing else. Let all your thoughts become anchored on this. No other word we use except at the beginning, when we say today\u2019s idea but once. And then God\u2019s Name becomes our only thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies our minds, the only wish we have, the only sound with any meaning, and the only Name of everything that we desire to see; of everything that we would call our own.<\/p>\n

    Thus do we give an invitation which can never be refused. And God will come, and answer it Himself.”<\/p>\n

    It is this strength upon which we call today and each moment within the day. It is this focus upon truth that echoes the truth within our being. In this way, we welcome the Light of our being.<\/p>\n

    As we see in NTI John, Chapter 1, \u201cThe Light is in all men and with all men. The Light does not fade or wither, but the darkness that fills the sight of man does not see the Light or choose to know it. And so, the Light waits on welcome, that it may be known.\u201d<\/p>\n

    It is this welcome we give today. Choose to be conscious of the light (truth) that the light be seen by you.<\/p>\n

    \u201cGod is welcomed into the presence of man by the desire to know God before man. The desire for truth beckons truth, and truth becomes manifest. For Love cannot say no to a request for Love. So where Love is welcomed, there it shall be.\u201d NTI John, Chapter 1.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
