  • Is Ultimate Reality Unlimited Love?
    Chapter 1: Stephen Post Sir John’s Biggest Question: An Introduction Sir John wrote me these words in a letter dated August 3, 2001, words that I know he thought deeply about and felt to be crucial for spiritual progress: I am pleased indeed, by your extensive plans for research on human love. I will be especially pleased if you find ways to devote a major part, perhaps as much as one third of the grant from the Templeton Foundation, toward research evidences for love over a million times larger than human love. To clarify why I expect vast benefits for research in love, which does not originate entirely with humans, I will airmail to you in the next few days some quotations from articles I have written on the subject. Is it pitifully self-centered to assume, if unconsciously, that all love originates with humans who are one temporary species on a single planet? Are humans created by love rather than humans creating love? Are humans yet able to perceive only a small fraction of unlimited love, and thereby serve as agents for the growth of unlimited love? As you have quoted in your memorandum, it is stated in John 1 that “God is love and he who dwells in love dwells in God and God in him.” For example, humans produce a very mysterious force called gravity but the amount produced by humans is infinitesimal compared to gravity from all sources. Can evidences be found that the force of love is vastly larger than humanity? Can methods or instruments be invented to help humans perceive larger love, somewhat as invention of new forms of telescopes helps human perceptions of the cosmos? What caused atoms to form molecules? What caused molecules to form cells temporality? Could love be older than the Big Bang? After the Big Bang, was gravity the only force to produce galaxies and the complexity of life on planets? Sir John wanted to devote at least one third of his grant to support investigations into a love “over a million times larger than human love.” Anything less would be an act of human arrogance.

    Mark F. Dodich ASTROMARK PO Box 16267 Portland, OR 97292-0267 USA 503- 252-1558 www.astromark.us [email protected] Astrology and Intuitive Consultations since 1980 ENHANCING YOUR PROSPERITY CONSCIOUSNESS This prosperity sampler is filled with ideas to help you expand your consciousness into larger dimensions of Universal Abundance. Pick and choose the ideas that work for you and release the rest. I offer this treatise as a thank you for all who have supported me in my personal growth and service, endeavoring to share that which has served me so well. Although I have been doing astrology professionally since 1980, I have only been doing it as my full time, primary source of income since 1995. Prior to that, I was an industrial sales representative. Those corporate jobs had a base salary that covered the basic monthly bills with commission incentives that provided a comfortable lifestyle. A tremendous transformation of my prosperity consciousness was required for me to go from the safety net of having at least a base salary to making it full time on my own. “DO WHAT YOU LOVE AND THE PROSPERITY WILL FOLLOW” is what everyone told me before I left the corporate world to be a self-employed astrologer. They made it sound so simple. All those well-intentioned people forgot to tell me about all the internal fears and processing I would have to go through so that I could do what I love and prosper. I can tell you now that all that processing was worth the considerable time and effort.

Then I have to ask, “What if…the table held a frugal dinner, the atmosphere one of uncertainty and fear. Would I still be able to ‘give thanks’?” It’s at that point that it’s important to revisit who I am, what my purpose is, and what resources are needed to bring that purpose and me into full manifestation.

  • Prosperity Is It Possible?
    PROSPERITY IS IT POSSIBLE? By REV. DANIEL RAY LANDIS A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF METAPHYSICAL SCIENCE, M.Msc. On behalf of the Department of Graduate Studies of the University of Metaphysics This thesis has been accepted by ___________________________________ Thesis Supervisor ___________________________________ IMM PRESIDENT June 28, 2017 Acknowledgments I would like to express my gratitude to Jacqueline Cochrane my beloved Life Partner, without whom this thesis would not have been possible. i Table of Contents Introduction…………………………………………………1 Review of Literature…….……………………………..……5 Discussion…………………………………………...…..….15 Conclusion…………………………………………….....…19 Works Cited………………………………………..…….…23 i Introduction I grew up in a Mennonite family in Lancaster, PA. My father was the Bishop of the largest Mennonite conference. Most of my relatives were Mennonite dairy farmers. Mennonites at that time worked hard to be separate from society. I had begun to read about people that believed you could affect your destiny and increase your prosperity by the use of the mind. This Thesis will investigate these teachings that have been available for centuries that helped people create prosperity out of thin air. It will demonstrate what has worked coming from the Bible and was integrated into the teachings of New Thought authors that had proven to be effective for creating prosperity. These teachings were radical to me as I came from a religion that required women to have their hair covered at all times and the men and women to sit on opposite sides of the church. The church was the central focus of the Mennonite culture and I was taught that blessings or curses happened because of an arbitrary God that decided whether I was good or bad.

  • The Myrtle Fillmore Collection—Finding
    Unity Library and Archives Myrtle Fillmore Papers 3033 Summary Description The papers of Myrtle Fillmore document primarily her work as correspondent for the Silent Unity Department of Unity School of Christianity. Myrtle Fillmore and her husband, Charles S. Fillmore, co-founded Unity School of Christianity, a New Thought, Christian, healing ministry based on affirmative prayer. Most of the collection consists of incoming prayer request letters and typewritten carbon copies of Fillmore's outgoing correspondence between January 1928 and October 1931. They include some handwritten postscripts and drafts of letters. A much smaller portion of the collection contains incoming prayer request letters and typewritten carbon copies of Fillmore's outgoing correspondence between 1890 and 1927. Of particular interest is a series of lessons from 1890 relating to the nature of God and humanity. Fillmore delivered some. Others may be notes from lectures, but all reveal the Christian Science influence of Emma Curtis Hopkins, a teacher of the Fillmores. A small assortment of notes and papers is related to Wee Wisdom, the children’s magazine founded and edited by Myrtle Fillmore. Personal correspondence and ephemera comprise the remainder of the collection dating from 1853. Quantity: 9 linear feet Donor: Probably Lowell Fillmore and the Silent Unity Department, c. 1936 Access: The collection is open with this note of caution regarding the Silent Unity Department File: researchers should note that Silent Unity correspondence was considered confidential between 1928 and 1931, as is current Silent Unity correspondence. Confidentiality was emphasized in each Silent Unity column in Unity magazine during the period. The Silent Unity Department File was likely saved only because it includes examples of Myrtle Fillmore’s writing.
