MEDITATION
By EMMITT L. BRINSON
Have you ever wondered
where the origin of thought,
urge, and desire comes from?
Scientists have spent a great
deal of time on this subject,
and only come up with statis
tics on results.
Some desires we are fully
conscious of, while others are
subconscious drives. How
ever, I believe It Is fully pos
sible that some of the sub
conscious drives are ours
through Inheritance, coming to
us through the hereditary genes.
Most of these are primitive
drives or urges of a species
or race. They cause us uncon
sciously to develop character
istics common to lineage.
Some drives are caused by
deep-rooted or conscious
experience of the past, coming
from the subconscious where It
has been stored. It reacts al
most as a reflex or trait.
The real urge or conscious
desire can be guided by one’s
own will. This “will” that Is
ours, can steer the thoughts
that come to our minds. The
teaser In all this Is: Where
does our thought come from?
This very definitely comes
from and emlnates through the
eternity Domain. The Infinite
or cosmic mind of God. Man
Is further confused as to why
we have good and bad thoughts
In the Infinite mind of God.
They are caused by man’s
human limitations to decipher
this flow of pure Information.
For we must remember that
man Is but an Image of God.
This, I believe. Is why our
Creator gave us a will of our
own and a conscience In which
to make a choice.
If you want to test the pos
sibilities of your contact with
an Infinite Mind, the next time
you have a weighty problem,
or you need to make an Impor
tant decision, think about the
pros and cons of the problem
by screening everything In
volved through your mind.
Do not pressure yourself for
an answer. Make sure you place
these thoughts away In your
subconscious and sleep on It.
In every case the crystal clear
decision that comes to you,
after your subconscious has
mulled It over. Is the right one.
Edison stated that many an
swers to most of his great
problems of Inventive genius
came to him In this very man
ner, and he felt a nearness to
God. Many times It came to him
In his sleep.
Could this be the same power
we experience through prayer?
Purely because we earnestly
prepare ourselves to receive
an answer from our Creator?
And during our meditation of
relaxed sincerity and serenity,
does this open the stop gaps
of our will, for Him to reward
us with direct flow, through
our entity with his Infinite mind,
where all truth Is perfect? I
wonder
