GREENWOOD, Ph.D. Moods That Bring Healing · (Concluded) MARIE WI~CHELL WALKER. M.D. Playing Square ELIZABETH TOWNE ~~Key to ~emonftration'' 'By GEORGE C. HUBBS Acx: in August, 1935, that always-helpful contributor, B Marie Winchell Walker, had a NAUTILUS article on "Key to Demonstration," the first sentence of which was: "You can demonstrate health and prosperity, not by any power or piety of your own, but by faith in God as law and love." And in her second paragraph she gave a clear reason for her opening statement by saying: "Since God is love, the creative principle must work through the medium of uni­ versal love." Here are two vital points. The first, that demonstration is not solely based on one's personal piety, but by an under­ standing of the nature of God - just, for example, as you must know the nature of your children or your friends to deal successfully with them. Too often, I fear, we deal with God according to our natures. The second point is this: that since God is love we obvi­ ously must speak his love language if we expect him to re­ spond. Could you expect a God of love to respond to a hate language? Or to a selfish, or a personal-worth, or a mere­ wish language? It will help us to properly value this point if we recall that God's language is spoken by our hearts, not by our lips; for, as it says in Revelation, "the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance"­ and by what is said - ' 'but the Lord looketh on the heart.'' By examining your heart, God detects whether, as Dr. Walker put it, "your specific thought is linked to a love motive"- the motive his love nature responds to. I am certain that as soon as our demonstrating methods are in keeping with the nature of God, and we sincerely speak his love language, miracles will begin to happen.

    Glenn F. Chesnut — Emmet Fox and New Thought — Page 1 Emmet Fox and New Thought Glenn F. Chesnut The problem of pain and suffering: Emmet Fox and New Thought One extreme answer to the problem of pain and suffering was given in the New Thought movement, which had a great influence on many of the Protestants in early AA. These New Thought authors taught that pain and suffering were fundamentally produced, not by external conditions, but by wrong thinking. If we changed the way we thought, the external world would change to match our new ideas. This group of American and British teachers, preachers, writers, and healers included Phineas Parkhurst Quimby (1802- 1866), Emma Curtis Hopkins (1849–1925), Thomas Troward (1847- 1916), and Emmet Fox (1886-1951). I would also include, as part of this tradition, a number of more recent figures such as Louise Hay (b. 1926), Helen Schucman (1909-1981), and Marianne Williamson (b. 1952), although these three latter figures of course had no influence on the world of early AA. The New Thought movement has at this time not been studied much or usually even taken with much seriousness by academic theologians and scholarly historians of thought. Even the largest New Thought denominational organizations (Unity Church, Church of Divine Science, and Religious Science) are quite small. Yet Louise Hay’s You Can Heal Your Life (1984) has sold 35 million copies to date (as opposed to 30 million copies for the AA Big Glenn F. Chesnut — Emmet Fox and New Thought — Page 2 Book), and even the works of some of the other New Thoughts authors have sometimes sold quite well.

  • The First Roman Catholics in Alcoholics Anonymous
    CHESNUT — FATHER ED DOWLING — PAGE 1 September 3, 2011 The First Roman Catholics in Alcoholics Anonymous Glenn F. Chesnut Alcoholics Anonymous was founded in 1935 by two men, Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith, who had been brought up as Protestants, and specifically, as New England Congregationalists. In spite of the fact that Congregationalism’s roots had lain in seventeenth and eighteenth-century Puritanism (the world of Jonathan Edwards’ “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” and Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter) this was a denomination which had developed and changed to the point where they very strongly took the liberal side—not the fundamentalist side—in the great fundamentalist-liberal debate which arose within early twentieth-century American Protestantism. In 1957 (two years after AA’s “coming of age” at its St. Louis convention) the Congregationalists united with another modernist mainline American denomination to form the extremely liberal United Church of Christ. At the time they first met, in 1935, Bill W. and Dr. Bob had both recently become involved with a controversial Protestant evangelical association called the Oxford Group, and initially worked with alcoholics under its umbrella. Nevertheless, both of them (as well as the majority of the alcoholics whom they sobered up during the first few years) came from liberal Protestant backgrounds, so a kind of generalized liberal Protestant influence rapidly became just as important as that of the Oxford Group. And contact with the New Thought movement (especially Emmet Fox) introduced an even more radical form of liberal Protestantism which was also a force in early AA.

Chesnut CHESNUT — FATHER ED DOWLING — PAGE 3 QUOTES “The two greatest obstacles to democracy in the United States are, first, the widespread delusion among the poor that we have a de- mocracy, and second, the chronic terror among the rich, lest we get it.” Edward Dowling, Chicago Daily News, July 28, 1941. Father Ed rejoiced that in “moving therapy from the expensive clinical couch to the low-cost coffee bar, from the inexperienced professional to the informed amateur, AA has democratized sani- ty.”1 “At one Cana Conference he commented, ‘No man thinks he’s ug- ly. If he’s fat, he thinks he looks like Taft. If he’s lanky, he thinks he looks like Lincoln.’”2 Edward Dowling, S.J., of the Queen’s Work staff, says, “Alcohol- ics Anonymous is natural; it is natural at the point where nature comes closest to the supernatural, namely in humiliations and in consequent humility. There is something spiritual about an art mu- seum or a symphony, and the Catholic Church approves of our use of them. There is something spiritual about A.A. too, and Catholic participation in it almost invariably results in poor Catholics be- coming better Catholics.” Added as an appendix to the Big Book in 1955.3 CHESNUT — FATHER ED DOWLING — PAGE 4 “‘God resists the proud, assists the humble. The shortest cut to humility is humiliations, which AA has in abundance.

    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.

  • May 9, 19^7 Dr. Charles S. Braden Northwestern University Evanston, Illinois Dear Dr. Braden: Thank You for Your Courtesy In
    May 9, 19^7 Dr. Charles S. Braden Northwestern University Evanston, Illinois Dear Dr. Braden: Thank you for your courtesy in sending us the chapter from your book on Unity School. We appreciate greatly the oppor­ tunity you have given us to read it and offer suggestions for changes which will make it more accurate. After my brother and I had read the manuscript we referred It to Charles Fillmore. I am quoting the notation he attached when he returned it to me: ''This is the fairest statement of Unity and its teaching that has been written. The only errors are those copied from Teener. They refer to personal matters, early teachers, etc, which Teener must have guessed at. However, they are not Important. Teener always Insists that our doctrine of God was pantheistic, which Braden has copied. His attention might be exiled to this error. Also he compares Unity to Psychlana on page 223, which might be omitted.1' Following are suggestions which I feel are good: On page 1 of your manuscript you have used the word "manu­ facturing plant," which we believe could be changed to "publishing plant" advantageously. On page 1, par. 2 and on page 2, par. 1, we would suggest that "followers of Unity" be changed to "students of Unity,'* for that Is what we consider those who read and study Unity teachings. On page 2 you have referred to the twelve o'clock silent period at Unity Inn when all present joined in a prayer for men in the Armed Forces. Perhaps you did not know that this silent period is still being observed even though the war ceased.

  • Theories and Evidence on Combining Imagery, Energy Medicine, and Awareness of Non-Local Mind Daniel J
    January, 2002 Volume 2, No. 1 EmotionalBodyProcess II: Theories and Evidence on Combining Imagery, Energy Medicine, and Awareness of Non-Local Mind Daniel J. Benor, MD, Dorothea von Stumpfeldt, MD, and Ruth Benor, RN Introduction We discuss theories to explain EmotionalBodyProcess, a method involving imagery healing for transformation of negative biological energies and subtle energies that exist within our environment. This innovative technique was described in IJHC Volume I, No. 1. Briefly, it involves the creation through imagery of a space where you concentrate the energies of love, acceptance, forgiveness, and healing. Into this space you invite the image of whatever negativity in your life you wish to transform. By dialoguing with the negative image, offering to give it whatever it wants of you, you will find that the negativity is rapidly diminished. LINK TO FAQ http://www.wholistichealingresearch.com/References/FAQ.htm EmotionalBodyProcess combines imagery, biological energies, and non-local mind. nlc How these may work is discussed in this paper. Historical notes The transformative powers of love have been noted by others. There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer; no disease that enough love will not heal; no door that enough love will not open; no gulf that enough love will not bridge; no wall that enough love will not throw down; no sin that enough love will not redeem. attributed to Emmet Fox The transposition of polarities as a healing technique was observed hundreds of years ago. the twelfth-century magician and poet Milarepa, one of Tibet’s greatest Buddhist teachers. lived in remote mountain caves.

  • INTA Archives Research Guide for Emmet Fox
    INTA Archives Research Guide for Emmet Fox Emmet Fox (July 30, 1886 – August 13, 1951) was a New Thought spiritual leader of the early 20th century. Often included in a list of the 10 most influential New Thought leaders, if not the first, Fox is widely known for his impact upon popular culture as well. Fox was born in Ireland. His father, who died before Fox was ten, was a physician and member of Parliament. Fox attended St Ignatius' College, a Jesuit secondary school near Stamford Hill. He became an electrical engineer. However, he discovered early that he had healing power, and from the time of his late teens studied New Thought. He came to know the prominent New Thought writer Thomas Troward. Fox attended the London meeting at which the International New Thought Alliance was organized in 1914. He gave his first New Thought talk in Mortimer Hall in London in 1928. Soon he went to the United States, and in 1931 was selected to become the successor to James Murray as the minister of New York's Divine Science Church of the Healing Christ. Fox became immensely popular, and spoke to large church audiences during the Depression, holding weekly services for up to 5,500 people at the New York Hippodrome until 1938 and subsequently at Carnegie Hall. Fox's secretary was the mother of one of the men who worked with Alcoholics Anonymous co-founder Bill W., and partly as a result of this connection early AA groups often went to hear Fox. His writing, especially "The Sermon on the Mount," became popular in AA.
