Let the Causal Body of a man be reached directly or indirectly in his wakeful or hypnotized state. The inclination or tendency imparted there will manifest itself undoubtedly in due time. When a person is hypnotized, a post – hypnotic suggestion which requires him to do a particular thing at a particular time after waking up, will unfailingly bear fruit at the proper time in the shape of a strong inclination to do the deed, Thus, as in this act, which can directly be brought about by a suggestion entering the Causal Body, so in all the acts that a man does, the Vedanta points out the presence of previous suggestions having entered the Causal Body. Those suggestions may have been due to the hypnotism of the senses, to the hypnotism of inner impressions, or any form of hypnotism of which the whole world is made according to the Vedanta. Let the Caudal Body be instilled with the suggestion of health, and the physical body is bound to be healthy. Let the Causal Body be saturated with the suggestion of Godhead, and the man is bound to be a prophet. Let the Causal Body be imbued with the suggestions of slavery and weakness, and the physical body must be weak and slavish. A man is the architect of his own product, inasmuch as it is his own Causal Body that is responsible for all his environment. Read the article »

The whole works together. So it is that when we cut ourselves off from the whole, we suffer and suffer until we realize our universality. There can be no rest in this performance. When the Universal consciousness is developed, we see that all bodies are interdependent; they are all mine, there is no separateness. Read the article »

The Vedanta fills you with energy and strength, and not weakness. In the Vedas there is a passage which says that this Atma, this Truth, can never, never be achieved by a man who is weak. It is not for the weak; the weak – hearted, the weak of body, the weak in spirit can never acquire it. Read the article »

The Vedanta says all this is a mere play on words? What is the use of fighting over words? There is in reality only the one Self which we are, nothing besides it, and since there is nothing besides the self, you cannot consistently say that you are a part. But it must follow that you are the self entire. There is no division in truth. You are the truth now. Read the article »
