HolidayHoliday ScheduleSchedule ................. 1010 By Joanna Fuchs Angel Tree............................ 10 Angel Tree ........................... 10 I love this poem by Joanna Fuchs – it calls me up to a higher view of the holiday season. I find myself pondering the concept of giving thanks and of how easy it is to do so when the table is laden with delicious food and atmosphere joyous. 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. Spiritual practices such as meditation and prayer, fasting, denials and affirmations, sharing in community, support these inquiries. Searching out inspired writings of those who have travelled this path before me provide grist for the mill. Here is one from Myrtle Fillmore that I find particularly helpful: “Sometimes we begin at the wrong end of the prosperity line, and our methods need changing. Perhaps we try to accumulate money to meet our temporal needs without first laying hold of the equivalent of money on the inner planes of con- sciousness. This inner equivalent consists of our rich ideas, our innate capabilities and resources of Spirit.” If you find yourself having trouble giving thanks this holiday season, I encourage you 5112 Pegasus Court to find a passage that can speak to you at your core; select one or more of the spiritual SSuiteuite E practices mentioned above and go deep.

Board of Trustees Kyle Huth “Let’s Talk Prosperity Consciousness!” By Patsy Scala [email protected] We in Unity often talk about “prosperity consciousness,” but I wonder how often we think about what it really means. Let’s take a look at this concept . define Book & Bag some terms. and see how it plays out in our lives and in our churches. Jude Oyler [email protected] First of all, a question: What exactly is this prosperity that is in our consciousness . that we want to bring into our lives and into our ministries? I define prosperity Building Maintenance as the state of having everything we desire in our lives. For some people, and for some Kyle Huth churches, this could be money. For others, it could be healing . inner peace . [email protected] world peace . love . joy. the ability to serve. The varieties of our desires are Celebration Service Coordinator endless. At this time, however, let’s confine our discussion to that most elusive Rev Toni Fish and most misunderstood aspect of prosperity. money. [email protected] And what is consciousness? Let’s start first with the simplest definition of con- sciousness. It is that which exists in our awareness. And it is much, much more. Community Outreach Consciousness is what H. Emilie Cady, in her Lessons In Truth, defines as soul . Rev Toni Fish that part of each of us which is non-manifest, and is connected to Spirit, which is [email protected] the Divine Energy present in, surrounding, and as everything in the world. This Drumming Spirit, too, is consciousness. Rosalind Jack If we put these two definitions together, what we have is the idea that all that we [email protected] desire is present in all things. We hear this in various ways in our churches. We are Paula Willey told that we live in an abundant Universe . that we need only to claim our part [email protected] of this abundance, and we will prosper. Healing So why don’t we do this? Well, first of all, even though it’s relatively easy to talk Healing Minstry Team about having a “prosperity consciousness,” it’s a lot harder to have one.

    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.

  • 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.

    AMERICAN mSTORlCAL PORTRAITS IN CURRENCY AND ECONOMICS GEORGE WASHINGTON ADAM SMITH U.S. ONE DOLLAR BILL ECONOMIST AND PHILOPHER 1723-1790 Tracing the principal ofALL-Sufficiency The concept of all-sufficiency was a building block of essentially all philosophical and religious system (in the original form) until the second century A.D. when the war against self-knowledge and self-reliance began. The ancients taught that to understand one's self was to understand God, and through the process of meditation, one could release the divine energy front within and transmute discord into harmony, ignorance into wisdom, fear into love, and lack into abundance. The initiate was trained to conceive the highest and noblest ideas as the vision for manifestation, and then to identify the symbols of the vision with the Master Spirit within - Source of all. Students of the Mysteries were also instructed in the use of the innate radiatory and magnetic power in exercising dominion. By working with the rhythmic Energy of self, whatever form that was needed for exchange (the legal tender of that time) was brought forth as instrument of goodwill. As such, "money" was simply a token of appreciation of one's service, a symbol of love and integrity. Regardless of the level of instruction, one particular teaching remained constant throughout the initiation process: Mind and emotions embodying love, gentleness, and peace eliminated limitation - that such a consciousness of harmlessness freed an individual from the bonds and restrictions of the race thought. They Mystery School of Asia, Egypt, Persia, and Greece provided an invaluable service to humankind by reawaking the spiritual powers in a core group of dedicated men and women.

FOREWORD Have you ever seen one of those movies like The Matrix or Mission Impossible, where one character has an incredible knack for doing something like hacking a computer, something that seems superhuman? It’s a reflection of the world we live in, where some people are amazing artists, some people can sing songs like no others, and others can design the Internet or rockets to go to the moon. Some people can dunk or run faster than any other. Perhaps you believe, as is enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, that “all men are created equal”? Or more accurately, “all people are created equal” when you take into account the 51 percent of humans who are women. It’s not true. We have equal rights, yet some people are wired to be exceptional in a special way.
