Limitations and Awakening Inward PowersPREFACEThere is a power lying hidden in man by the use of which he can riseto higher and better thingsThere is in man a greater Self that transcends the finite self ofthe senseman even as the mountain towers above the plainThe object of this little book is to help men and women to bring theirinward powers of mind and spirit into expression wisely and inharmony with universal law to build up character and to find withinthemselves that wondrous Self which is their real self and whichwhen found reveals to them that they are literally and truly sonsof God and daughters of the Most HighThere is no way whereby the discipline of life can be avoided Thereis no means by which fate can be tricked nor cunning device bywhich the great cosmic plan can be evaded Each life must meet itsown troubles and difficulties each soul must pass through its deepwaters every heart must encounter sorrow and grief But none needbe overwhelmed in the great conflicts of life for one who has learnedthe great secret of his identity with the Universal life and Powerdwells in an impregnable city built upon and into the Rock of Truthagainst which the storms of life beat in vainWhile this little work does not offer any vain promises of an easylifefor if this were possible it would be the greatest of alldisastersbut rather endeavours to show how to become so strong thatlife looks almost easy by comparison the life or fate does not changeor become easier but the individual alters and becomes strongeryet it does show the reader how to avoid making his life moredifficult than it need be Most peoples lives would be less filledwith trouble and suffering if they took life in the right spirit andacted in harmony with Universal LawIt is hoped that this little book may help many to come into harmonywith lifes law and purpose and thus avoid much needless sufferingto find the Greater Self within which discovery brings with it arealization of absolute security to bring into expression and wiselyuse their inner spiritual and mental forces and thus enter a lifeof overcoming and almost boundless powerCHAPTER IINFINITE LIFE AND POWERMan possesses did he but know it illimitable Power 1 This Poweris of the Spirit therefore it is unconquerable It is not the powerof the ordinary life or finite will or human mind It transcendsthese because being spiritual it is of a higher order than eitherphysical or even mental This Power lies dormant and is hidden withinman until he is sufficiently evolved and unfolded to be entrustedwith its use  1 The powers of the subconscious mind are dealt with in other      chapters The Powers of the Spirit are far greater and finer      than those of the subconscious mindThought is a spiritual power of tremendous potency but this is notthe power of which we speak By thought man can either raise himselfup and connect himself with the Power House of the Universe orcut himself off entirely from the Divine Inflow His thought is hisgreatest weapon because by it he can either draw on the Infiniteor sever himself in consciousness but not in reality from hisDivine SourceThrough the Divine Spark within him which is really his real Selfman is connected with the Infinite Divine Life and Power are hisif he _realizes_ that they are his So long as he is ignorant of hisoneness with the Divine Source of all life he is incapable ofappropriating the power that is really his If however he entersinto this inner knowledge he finds himself the possessor of infinitepower and unlimited resourcesThis Power then is Gods yet it is also mans but it is notrevealed to him until he is fit to be entrusted with it It is onlywhen man realizes his oneness with his Divine Source that he becomesfilled with Its power Many teachers and initiates lament the factthat certain secrets are being spread broadcast today secrets thatin the past were kept closely guarded They fear that unilluminedand unevolved people may make destructive use of spiritual powerThis to the writer appears to be improbable It is true that strongpersonalities who have a great belief in their own power to achieveand succeed draw unconsciously on hidden powers and thus are ableto raise themselves high above their fellows The use however thatthey can make of spiritual power for base purposes is limited andis not to be feared There are others of course who are misusingtheir powers These are black magicians and while they may do acertain amount of harm they become reduced ultimately to beggaryand impotence There are also others who spend the whole of theirspare time searching for knowledge of this very subject They readevery occult book they can lay hands on but they never find thatfor which they seek There are spiritual powers and influences thatwithhold the eyes of the seekers from seeing until they are readyfor the revelation When man in his search for Truth has given upall selfish striving after unworthy things and has ceased to usehis selfwill in conflict with the greater Will of the Whole he isready for the revelation of his oneness with the Infinite Yieldingimplicitly to the Will of the Whole may seem to the unilluminedan act of weakness yet it is the entrance to a life of almostboundless powerMan is not separate from his Divine Source and never has been Heis in reality one with the Infinite The separation which he feelsand experiences
