Dear Friends,
This week's quote is from spiritual awareness class CC 208, which was published in Volume 7 of The Living Light Dialogue.
“Now, some time ago it was given to put God in whatever it is that you choose to do or to forget what you choose to do. Now, what does that statement really mean, “To put God in it or forget it”? When you put God in anything, you put the infinite, divine, eternal power of neutrality—you free yourself from the duality of the human mind; you free yourself from the want, need, and desire; and you free yourself from the obstruction of self-concern. When you put God in it, then that’s exactly what happens. The Infinite Intelligence moves in that moment unobstructed. The Infinite Intelligence, known to man as God or good, that’s all that can return to you. When man does what he knows is right because it’s right to do right, then only the right can return unto him.
Remember, my friends, without personal responsibility, there is no spiritual awakening. And so with all of the many desires that come and go in the course of a single day, remember, you can be free if you choose to be.”
The Living Light Philosophy is filled with hundreds, perhaps thousands, of sayings and affirmations. The often simple and frequently perplexing sayings hold key teachings. They can be considered the distilled essence of aspects of the teachings. I was struck by this beautiful understanding of just one of those sayings.
For those who are new to Serenity, you will find recent quotes on Serenity's Facebook Fanpage and that is also where you can join students of the Living Light from around the world to ask questions and share your understanding. I hope you will join the conversation.
