The Metaphysical Art Theater Presents "Virtual Reality" Disk 3 Part 2

To avoid doing the very thing that I claimed was better, that I desired. Oh, starting is difficult, yes. Well, because you're acting in faith and have no memory to support the new man. We're told to be in the world, but not to be of the world. Well, mass‑mind reasoning is based upon fear. Generally, I mean, we're being encouraged to change your mind, change your world, to set the world of everydayness aside for a time—for a time of contemplation, a time of meditation. I mean simply because looking for desired change requires an investment in self.9001 ¶1

We're told very plainly to enter the closet, close the door, and when you're alone, persistently as you can, convince yourself. Someone said, “I have tried and tried and failed. Well, if you haven't stopped, you haven't failed. It's only when you quit. I mean, just keep reminding yourself, nothing changes until you change. There's nothing transforming in death. Yes, yes, I do understand. Yes, I do understand how difficult it is to even consider a change of mind—being committed to this and being committed to that, and responsible for this and responsible for that. I understand that. Busy, busy, busy. It can just seem so overwhelming to the point that you seem to have no time for yourself to relax. But you can. If you once pass through the portal, the open door, in mind, in imagination, your confidence for a better life will soar, because it's with you. Right now it is with you. And someone asked, “Is there a special code? The answer to that is yes; there is a code: “Be still and know that I am God. Yes, be still and know that I am God.9001 ¶2

That's an invitation you turn to; I'll turn to you. Without question, we are given to know. And the question that you should ask, that's your duty to know. Just turn to the Word.9001 ¶3

Well, the Word is with God, the Word is with you, and the Word is God. What are you doing with the Word?9001 ¶4

We're told that worshiping God is using His gifts. Yes, worshiping God is using His gifts. Yes, we're being told the wisdom of worshiping God is awakening, awakening to what has already been a given. You have the gifts already given. Well, as I said, worshiping God is using His gifts. And you have them.9001 ¶5

Feeling after to recognize, seek, and you shall find. Shall find. Feel after Him and you shall find Him. Shall find.9001 ¶6

You doing, being, having your heart's desire, hopefully. Yeah, well, it's claimed that we're praying ceaselessly and that all prayer is answered. Every word must be accounted for. Every word. Every word is to be accounted for.9001 ¶7

Make up your life, your everydayness. Look, if you feel denied, you're the one denying yourself, because we're told that all denial is self‑denial. The question is, do you know how it is that you're praying? Well, are you truly aware of what it is you're asking? As our asking is feeling to be “I am,” that—what do you feel yourself to be? Someone there said, “Well, you hit it right on. I don't feel worthy. Well, the answer here is grace. It's not about worthiness; it's about willingness. None are worthy. You were told being willing makes you worthy in the eyes of God.9001 ¶8

Change your mind, change your world. Consider: God's play of humanity is emotion, movement out from you, me, all of us. Yes, really feeling it when you're listening. Feel it many times. Listen many times because you may just remember it. If you remember it, you'll probably do it—just remembering what's being said, what you have found agreement with in your own heart. And once you start seeing the benefits of doing so, you'll do so eagerly, moving right along, attitude awareness, imaginational control.9001 ¶9

That's what everyone is looking for. You may call it all sorts of different names. You may want many things. And it's the asking, claiming. Well, but you're saying, “I don't have the condition I want. I don't have the situation. You are what you are because of what you think you are, and the story of Job—that which I have feared has come upon me—is really everyone's story. We're being told that fear is the opposite of faith; it is self‑denial. You use the same energy for desire change that you're now using. Well, challenging yourself for information—that's the portal to new life, to a new lifestyle: health, wealth, happiness, relationships. What is it that you're looking for? You know, we're told that we receive not because we ask not, or that we're asking amiss. Yes, asking amiss, asking for what you do.9001 ¶10

Who does that? Most of the world. Well, it's just changing your self‑talk. A new attitude. Well, attitude, awareness, and imaginational control. That is how it works. Yes. Well, just read what the wise man has said down through the ages. That it is our attitudes, our own attitudes. Attitude, awareness, and imaginational control, as I keep telling you, is the same.9001 ¶11

It's not how you came to have the attitude you got. It's not about fault. It's not about blame. You have a valid say, and you're saying your valid say.9001 ¶12

We were all conditioned to the ongoing drama upon entering in, being born. But there does come a time when you start acting in choosing for yourself, first person. When you begin to examine the I do's, attitudes, assumptions, moods, suggestions, and you're suggesting to yourself subtly all the time, see if they're valid.9001 ¶13

See if it's where you want to go. I mean, if it's leading you where you want to go, fine. Follow through. I mean, you've had enough experiences to see that it is change your mind, change your world. And I know the difficulty in doing so. Well, it's just about being a better director—a better director of our self‑talk.9001 ¶14

Look, I know we're not paying attention all the time. I'm really aware of that, but yet we're always on. Yeah, but we're also being made aware that as you think, you are.9001 ¶15

Really consider this. More is better. More aware is better. More in control is better.9001 ¶16

To take charge. I mean, really feel what it is that's being said. You're on all the time, and we're told that every word is taken in a culmination to make up your everydayness. Every word must be accounted for. Every word.9001 ¶17

I really can't express this enough, that your say is a valid say, and you're about saying your valid say, even if you're inwardly or outwardly. It's that self‑talk. Well, it's either lifting you up or crash.9001 ¶18

I mean, as I said, every word must be accounted for—even the nonsense, yes, good, bad, or indifferent; it is all creative. Every word is creative. She says that's insane. Well, insane is not to just check it out for yourself. I'm not asking you to join anything. I don't have anything to join; you have everything you need to do, to know, to have, to change, to discern the message, make up your own mind. This is good, worthy to follow through on or not. Look, it's what we're all seeking. I call it attitude awareness and imaginational control. And attitude awareness because when I really started monitoring my own self‑talk, yeah, I discovered it right there—attitudes I didn't realize I was operating from. Well, that wasn't really quite true. Sometimes I had a tinge about what I was imagining to drop it. Yes, imagining creates the real in this drama, man. Don't try to fool yourself.9001 ¶19

Well, it's as you think you are. It's as simple as that. Keep it that simple; you'll remember it. Yes, I understand.9001 ¶20

Someone asked a friend if I was depressed. He seems never to have company, and he spends so much of his time alone. Well, look, after giving these talks for 40 years, I stopped having company except for just friends. Yes, well, no—I’m not depressed, and no, I don’t spend time alone; I invest in time alone.9001 ¶21

Yes, and so will you once you see the portal, once you find the portal, once you enter the door, you'll understand that your say is a valid say. It's always open; it's in your own mind. And when you enter in imagination, as you begin to feel after dreaming the dream—better than the best—consider you can buy all the books promising you success and you choosing by desire. But if you're looking for desired change in what they are telling you, it's generally true, at least the essence of the message, but consider its information. See, they can encourage you. The one thing that they cannot do is do it for you; that's what you must do. It is you who must feel after to understand. Look at your show—show up. I mean, you're always on; show up, you're always choosing, aware or unaware. Just catch yourself. Monitor your own inner conversations for a time. This is not about judgment or guilt trips or none of that. It's information that you're bonding with. What? So you can decide to follow through or break the bond.9001 ¶22

Mindsets—yes, your own mindset, not where you got them, not how you came by them, but what they are. Yes, well you can unset the mindsets with new ideas, new attitudes, new assumptions. No, it's not about fighting anything; it's about having new assumptions, new moods. You must choose to be the new man, no more the old man.9001 ¶23

And I know he doesn't go away easily, but forgive yourself time and time again because you keep slipping back into the old man. It's called double‑mindedness. Lazy‑mindedness. You go through this before you actually settle down. Yeah. Yes.9001 ¶24

Yes, but you're the one deciding. It's your decision. Where are you going? What are you doing? All in a mind. All in imagination.9001 ¶25

Well, if you're not deciding, then you're vulnerable to be chosen for. I mean, really, it's as simple as that. I didn't say it was easy, but it is simple and powerful.9001 ¶26

I mean, the Bible has it. Son, all I have is yours. All.9001 ¶27

And the question about eternal life—well, not eternal—what would having all mean or matter? The Bible is a code; it's written in symbology. You can read it as secular history and you'll never really get the essence of the message. It's divine history; it's not what has happened. It's what is happening right here, right now.9001 ¶28

No one can deliver out of God's hands. Discover thinking, focused, directed through choice. I am that—your ideal, your highest. Ideal, your highest. You can turn thoughts into matter. Yes. And what do I call mind‑over‑matter idea? I call it body. We all have one. Whatever shape is sin, you have a valid say. You're given. Choose this day. Why not?9001 ¶29

Well, whatsoever is the potential, so watch it. Well, thoughts become things. I mean, it is our everydayness, our thoughts. I mean, here I'm here to share information to deliver to you your message.9001 ¶30

I'm not here to impress you. I'm not here to impress you. I'm not here to prove anything to you.9001 ¶31

It's up to you to convince yourself, to impress yourself so that you'll express what you desire. Your say is valid beyond natural man‑mind reasoning because your spirit. Feel after Him and you'll find Him.9001 ¶32
