Dr. Masters’ Mystical Insights

“Overcoming Negatives”

Eliminate all negatives from your mind and what do you have left? The answer is the Mind of God. God is the absolute positive thinker. There is nothing but God; therefore, God has nothing to fear or war with. God is in infinite control of what is and shall be. In God’s Allness, God is One, Whole and Complete.

As the human mind progresses through time, eventually it will reawaken to its own divine nature. The only thing blocking the mind from such inner revelation is that the mind of most people is generally overflowing with negatives. These negatives keep the ultimate nature of God Consciousness repressed or hidden under the negatives in the mind.

“Guruism”

The only true teacher or guru is to be found within oneself.

There’s an old Hindu expression that goes, “When the chela (or student) is ready, the guru (or teacher) will appear.” Until a soul has satisfactorily spiritually awakened to a higher awareness, it continues to look outward to find a guru or spiritual teacher to provide a passage from mortal to immortal consciousness.

A true teacher will shun grandiose, spiritual accolades and simply be a spiritual signpost—pointing students back into themselves.

“Soul Mates”

There is a master plan to the Universe and all that transpires therein. That plan is as vast as the physical universe, and even far beyond, into other dimensions of existence. In fact, what takes place in the physical dimension is just the outer tip of the iceberg when compared to the vast complexity of creating and maintaining a universal order to all things.

Thus, there are innumerable mysteries involving existence, not the least of which is one’s spiritual relationship or connection to another human being. When we pursue this thought in regard to personal love relationships, we come to the often mysterious and intriguing subject of soul mates.

“Karma”

Karma has been linked in people’s minds to a common explanation for the good or the bad experienced in human life. The word karma itself simply means action. That action can be positive or negative. The acts of today create the fortune or misfortune of the future. The Bible’s words, “As you sow, so shall you reap,” could be the Biblical equivalent of karma.

It has been commonplace in society to say that if a person’s life is going well, it is because of good karma, and if their life is going badly, that person has bad karma. In understanding karma, you should be aware that you are the one who is in charge of creating either good or bad karma in your life. The exception to this is when you align yourself with God, in which case God will begin to remove or neutralize some of the bad karma you are carrying with you, as well as strengthen and/or give more power to the positive karma you have accumulated.

“Living Life from Within”

When life is lived from within, there is so much more to see and be aware of in the world that physically surrounds you. Most people, however, live life from without. That is, they live life based only on input from their outer five senses.

Throughout the ages, individuals possessing inner wisdom discovered the betterment of living life from within themselves. Living life from within yourself means turning inward to an innate inner—or higher—consciousness. Christ referred to this higher consciousness as “The Kingdom of Heaven within.” He admonished people to “Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven, and all things will be added unto you.”

“The Power of Commitment to God”

Your life can be better if you have a commitment to God. Those who have truly worked their way up to a more fulfilling and satisfactory life have had a commitment of some sort, whether to oneself or to another. Commitment helps to keep one focused until one has achieved the desired goal.

When people are committed to something, they maximize their effort of time and energy. Maximizing one’s effort increases the likelihood that results will be achieved. Many individuals who have been committed to achieving goals have done so without a conscious thought about God. Yet, unconsciously, through commitment, they have drawn upon God’s Presence and Resources to achieve what they have desired.

“Declaring Your Own Independence”

How very precious is the freedom of independence from relying on anything outside of oneself!   Without such freedom, people often feel that their soul is being suffocated. This is due to the lack of breathing room to move, think, and feel life with the sense of liberty that comes from not being dependent on anything or anyone outside of oneself.

How many people today live lives of quiet, or at times, not so quiet desperation? How many people feel trapped by other people, or by conditions in their lives? How many feel this way, believing, for example, that they have no choice but to remain in some form of employment with which they feel very uncomfortable? How many feel that they are in a relationship with a spouse or significant other that they cannot abandon, even though they wish to, for fear of losing financial, emotional, or sexual support?
