Dr Joseph Murphy Why Did This Happen To Me?

welcome to the reality revolution I'm your host Brian Scott and today we're going to return to dr. Joseph Murphy and another wonderful lecture this one titled why did this happen to me is a wonderful discussion of a universal question that we all end up asking once in our lives some crazy thing happens some terrible thing happens I've lost friends caught girlfriends cheating on me had girlfriends leave me lost houses lost businesses all kinds of things that have happened to me and you always asked that question at some point why did this happen to me and it's a question that you will end up asking if you haven't ever asked it and so let's look at these events these crazy things that happen with the filter of dr. Joseph Murphy's wonderful words dr. Joseph Murphy as I have said before was a wonderful New Thought teacher that taught on the power of the mind and the power of the subconscious mind he had several incredible affirmations and there will be a short prayer at the end of this I found this in two places at a lecture that he gave and also in his book maximize your potential to overcome fear and worry through your subconscious mind dr. Murphy begins by saying when life does not go as planned when misfortune strikes when one is unhappy with the cards one is dealt we often hear the complaint why did this happen to me there is no easy answer to this universal question to accept the trials and tribulations all humankind faces it is necessary to think God's thoughts to think in a new way to think of eternal verities to think of eternal principles of life in the same manner that mathematicians would think from the principle of mathematics navigators would think from the principle of navigation chemists would think from the principle of chemistry electricians would think from the principle of electricity they know it moves from a higher to a lower potential they learn the laws of conductivity and insulation for wiring your house likewise your mind is a principle therefore you think from the God Center within you think on whatsoever things are true whatsoever things are just whatsoever things are lovely whatsoever things are pure whatsoever things are honest and of good report think on these things you are thinking only when you are thinking from the standpoint of the god center within there is a principle of harmony not of discord there is a principle of beauty not ugliness there's a principle of joy none of sadness there is a principle of love not of hate there is a principle of wholeness perfection there is no principle of sickness if there were no one in the entire world could ever be healed realize therefore that when your thoughts are completely free from fear and worry you are thinking from the standpoint of the divine center within you and God speaks thinks and acts through you therefore you speak in words of wisdom truth and beauty words of harmony health and peace you think therefore from the god center within many people do not think millions do not think they think that they think but they are mistaken because true thinking we are talking about constructive thinking it is completely free from fear all fear is based upon externals our causative externals are in effect not a cause therefore you must remember that if we do not think of for ourselves someone else will do our thinking for us if you do not choose your own mood who's going to choose it for you newspapers headlines the mass mind we are all subjective we are all in the mass mind we're all in telepathic communication with each other the people in this world are all extensions of ourselves therefore if you do not think constructively harmoniously and peacefully the world mind or the mass mind or the race mind will do your thinking for you and that mass mind believes in tragedy misfortune sickness disease accidents and they indulge in hate murder and all sorts of things is that the kind of a mind you want thinking through you and in you that's what happens to you if you don't do your own thinking then these negative vibrations or thoughts of the mass mind move in upon you reach a point of saturation precipitate as accident misfortune sickness disease we have explosions in minds today we have airplane crashes and tragedies occurring daily it isn't that people are evil or they are bad because they're submarine goes down in the ocean or because there is a flood in some city or because children are hurt in accidents and explosions take place in various factories and things of that nature many people lose their lives we say it's necessary to keep prayed up you keep prayed up when you fill your mind for example of the truth of God which crowd out of your mind everything unlike God remember ye not the former things neither consider the things of old but this one thing I do forgetting the things that are behind reaching forth unto those things that are before I press toward the mark for the prize the Bible says whatsoever a man soweth so shall he reap this means that if we plant thoughts of peace harmony health Beauty prosperity we shall reap accordingly and that if we sow thoughts of sickness lack strife and contention we shall reap these things we must remember that our subconscious mind is like the soil it will grow whatever type of seed we plant in the garden of our mind we sow thoughts biblically speaking when we believe them wholeheartedly for whatever your conscious mind really believes your subconscious will bring to pass whether true or false unless you do your own thinking you'll be controlled by the mass mind and the mass mind believes in misfortune sickness calamities and tragedies of all kinds therefore you must do your own thinking true thinking is completely free from fear worry and anxiety because you are thinking from the god center within when your thoughts are God's thoughts God's power is with your thoughts of good therefore you don't say to another what boiling thoughts were you thinking maybe they didn't have any boiling thoughts at all maybe they didn't do any praying of their own and they said I'll just take what comes therefore the world mind believes in sickness and disease of all kinds and if you do not cleanse your own mind the world mind will not cleanse it for you what happens to a home when you go away for three or four months rats mice and pests f-first insects come in the paint falls off the walls and everything goes wrong in the house because there is no habitation no living there you have to shampoo your mind like you shampoo your body or cleanse your body you have to shampoo it regularly clearly and distinctly whatever we really believe with our conscious mind our subconscious brings to pass a chaplain in a hospital in Massachusetts told me that a common experience she had were patients who lamented why did this happen to me what did I do to deserve this why is God angry with me why is God punishing me I go to church regularly I'm a charitable person I am kind-hearted I must have done something wrong that I don't know about that's why I am so ill the law of life is the law of belief what do you believe to believe is to accept something as true to live in the state of being it to be alive to something we should believe in the goodness of God we should live in the joyous expectancy of the best we should believe in the guidance of God the harmony of God the healing power of God to make us whole pure relaxed and perfect the chaplain reported that in many cases she prayed with patients and helped them change their beliefs I helped them realize that the body was spiritual that when they changed their minds they changed their bodies they began to cease giving power to the sickness in their thoughts she taught them to pray as follows the infinite healing presence is flowing through me as harmony health peace wholeness and perfection God's healing love in dwells every cell of my being I am made whole purer relaxed and perfect she taught them to repeat this prayer frequently knowing what they were doing and why they were doing it thus the conscious mind was writing these truths down in their subconscious whatever you impress or inscribe in your subconscious will come to pass as form function experience and events as a result of this many patients made miraculous recoveries the law of life is the law of belief if you fear sickness you attract it the law of the Lord is perfect you can't think one thing and produce another the law of life is the law of belief trouble of any kind is nature's alarm system that we are thinking wrongly in that direction nothing but a change of thought can set us free there is a law of cause and effect operating at all times nothing happens to man without his mental consent and participation you do not have to think of an accident to have it befall you haven't you seen a man driving a car careening in and out drunk you said there goes an accident why there's a mind behind it there's a mood there's an emotion behind the wheel there's always a mind behind it is that mind disturbed is that mind emotionally disturbed if you are emotionally disturbed it affects your vision you don't see so well OSHA the u.s. federal government agency responsible for occupational safety investigates the causes of industrial injuries they are particularly concerned about companies where frequent injuries occur in addition to their engineering staff which examines the facilities for physical defects that may cause the accidents safety experts with training in psychology interview the workers not just the injured person but all the workers in the plant they often learned that accidents are caused when employees are emotionally upset in companies where workers have dogmatic and domineering bosses resentment of the boss leads to negative thoughts in the workers minds which results in carelessness and accidents misfortune accident and tragedies of various kinds are signs of mental and emotional disorders that have broken out into manifestation we must train our minds to think in a new way to turn back to God and align our thoughts and mental imagery with the infinite life love truth and beauty of God then we become channels for the divine still your mind several times a day and affirm slowly quietly and lovingly God flows through me as harmony health peace joy wholeness and perfection God walks and talks in me Godspell is always around me wherever I go God's wisdom governs in me in all my ways divine right action prevails all my ways are ways of pleasantness and all my paths are peace God's love surrounds me and folds me and then wraps me God walks and talks in me I'm surrounded by the sacred circle of God's eternal love and the whole armor of God surrounds me as you dwell on these eternal verities you will establish patterns of divine order in your subconscious mind and whatever you impress in the subconscious mind is expressed on the screen of space therefore you will find yourself watched over at all times by an over shadowing presence your Heavenly Father it responds to you when you call upon him the Bible says call upon me I will answer you I'll be with you in trouble I'll set you on high because you have known my name now all of us should learn how the subjective self in us works one of the great corollaries of the great law of suggestion is this whatever you suggest to another you are also suggesting to yourself when you are giving a suggestion to another you are giving it to yourself because you are the only thinker in your universe and you respond to the way you think whatever you are wishing for the other person you're wishing for yourself you always under the law of your own thought this is the basis of the golden rule which also tells you to treat your enemies well to pray for them that despitefully use you in other words never dwell on ill-will for anyone or against any person on the face of the earth you do so at your own peril because whatever you are thinking about the other you are creating in your own mind your body your circumstances your pocketbook also that's a simple truth radiate love peace and goodwill to everybody don't judge with what judgment ye judge ye shall be judged your judgement of the other is your judgment of yourself that's the conclusion that's your verdict in your own mind many people suffer from sickness disease accidents and misfortune because they do not think constructively they're letting mass mind or race mind or the law of averages govern them they are not bad people but they refuse to think for themselves they do not keep prayed up they do not neutralize the mass mind if you know very well if you read the newspapers in the morning and listen to the radio or TV at night what do you hear about murder rape hate jealousy and all sorts of misfortune seemed to happen to people they tell you about all the bad things that have happened they don't tell you about any of the good things well likewise if you do not keep prayed up if you do not think for yourself the mass mind does your thinking for you therefore you must ask yourself am I thinking constructively harmoniously peacefully of course you answer that question yourself you are what you think all day long for as we think in our heart in our subconscious mind so we are so do we become and so do we express that's the whole law whatever you sow in your mind so shall you reap all of us are in the mass mind the race mind the great psychic see the mass mind believes in sickness accidents death misfortune and tragedies of all kinds if we do not do our own thinking the mass mind the race mind will do our thinking for us gradually the thoughts of the mass mind impinging on our consciousness may reach a point of saturation and precipitate as accident sudden illness calamity heart attack so-called tragedies that happen in the air the sea the majority of people do not think they think that they think you are thinking when you differentiate between that which is false and that which is real to think is to choose how many people are thinking you have the capacity to say yes and no let your conversation be yey and yay and no no you say yes to the truth of being and you reject everything unlike God or the truth if the mental instrument could not choose you would not be an individual you have the ability to accept and reject you can think on whatsoever things are true love ly noble and godlike all day long there is nothing in the entire world to stop you from thinking constructively harmoniously and peacefully you are thinking when you know that there is an infinite intelligence which responds to your thoughts and that no matter what the problem is as you think about a divine solution and the happy ending you will find the subjective wisdom within you responding to you and revealing to you the perfect plan and show you the way to go everywhere you move today suggestions of people in your office in your home radio television and all that or the neighbors their thoughts and their moods are playing upon the subtle receptivity of your mind whether you know it or not these impressions are going down into your mind and muddling it and fouling it if a building were left unattended for any length of time you know what would happen to it likewise every morning and every night sit down read Psalms the 91st psalm the 27th 23rd 46th and the first Psalm are particularly helpful these are marvelous truths Psalms are songs of God you are here to cleanse your mind to govern it to watch over it just the same as you cleanse your body you give a piece of soap to a person who is dirty and that person takes a bath that's a suggestion of cleanliness to him or her while cleanliness is next to godliness therefore we should give attention to things that are lovely and Noble we should give attention to eternal verities the principles of life we should discipline our thoughts inattention negligence apathy listlessness pay dividends but there are negative dividends aren't they you have to give attention to what is true what is noble and what is of God over the years I've had many people with medical problems come to me for advice some have truly serious problems others are trivial in any case I strongly recommend their seeking professional medical help I am NOT a doctor nor am i a healer in the sense that the prophet Elijah Jesus and others have been but often I find that the true problem is not medical but spiritual one of the strangest cases brought to my attention was that of a woman what suffered a series of illnesses over a period of time she told me God has it in for me I'm a sinner this is why I'm being punished she also told me she went to a man who hypnotized her read her past he attributed her illnesses to a life she had previously lived in which she had been an evil person who had harmed many people as she had not been punished in that life she is now suffering for the sins she had committed then of course that was nonsense it only made things worse I explained to her an age-old truth there is but one power called God the living spirit almighty not two or three or a thousand it is the creative intelligence in all of us that created us this power becomes to us what we believe it to be to the forward I am forward to the pure I am pure if you think and believe there is a God of love then the God of love will respond to you and become a loving being to you if you think that God is punishing you that you must suffer according to your thought and belief it is done unto you but in reality you are punishing yourself as the Bible says it is done unto him as he believes for as a man thinketh in his heart or subconscious mind so is he so does he become so does he express this woman was seeking justification and alibis for her suffering she was looking outside herself instead of realizing because nothing happens to the body except there is a pattern in the subconscious mind I asked her to look inside herself and determine if there was something in her past about which she felt a deep sense of guilt she confessed that she had a love affair with a married man a few years ago and that she felt guilty and should be punished with guilt comes fear and apprehension and with fear comes punishment she felt that she would be punished and she was punishing herself guilt is the curse of curses it's one of the most destructive of all emotions and being a destructive negative emotion it cannot have a constructive outlet these emotions get snarled up in the subconscious mind and come forth as illness and disease this unresolved remorse was the psychic wound behind her illnesses I helped her realize that God was not punishing her but she was punishing herself by her own thoughts my explanation was the cure she forgave herself and she sat down for 20 minutes several times a day and said God's healing love saturates my soul and I forgive myself for harboring these negative destructive thoughts her illness abated and she was soon back to a full healthy productive life there is no worse suffering than a guilty conscience and certainly none more destructive this woman had been punishing herself for several years by her destructive thinking when she ceased to condemn herself and began to claim that the infinite healing presence was saturating her whole being that God dwells in every cell of her body her illnesses disappeared when you stand praying forgive forgive yourself first you can't give what you don't have as she decided to forgive herself God's healing love healed her in ancient times they attributed thoughts and feelings to the heart today we know it is your subconscious mind whatever idea is emotionalized and felt as true comes to pass once it reaches the subconscious mind your subconscious assumptions beliefs convictions dictate and control all your conscious actions your subconscious beliefs impel propel and compel whatever you sow you reap your thoughts and feelings create your destiny you are what you think all day long if you fail to think constructively wisely and judiciously than someone else or the mass mind will do your thinking for you and perhaps make a complete mess of your life if you believe that God is infinite goodness boundless love absolute harmony boundless wisdom the God presence will respond accordingly to you by the law of reciprocal relationship and you will find yourself blessed countless ways the forces of life depend on how you use them atomic energy is not evil it is good or bad depending on the way you use it you can use atomic energy in medicine you can drive a ship across the ocean with it you can use electricity to kill another or to vacuum the floor you can use water to quench a child's thirst or drown it you can use nitric acid to paint a beautiful Madonna on the windowpane or you can blind a person with it the wind which blows the ship on the rocks can also carry it to safety the uses to which all things or objects in the world are put are determined by the thoughts and motivations of humankind good and evil are in our minds good and evil are the movements of my own mind relative to the one being forever whole pure and immaculate in itself it is the human mind that determines the use of the forces and objects in the world the creative force is in our minds there is no power in the manifest universe except we give power to externals externals are an effect they are not a cause the scientific thinker does not make phenomenal istic world a cause it's an effect the cause is your thought and feeling no matter how long you might have used your mind in a negative and destructive manner the it you begin to use it the right way the right results follow remember not the former things nor consider the things of old this one thing I do forgetting the things that are behind and reaching forth to the things that are before I pressed towards the mark for the prize the prize of course is health happiness peace of mind joy and all the good things of life think good good follows think evil evil follows the minute you enthrone in your mind godlike ideas and eternal verities they generate their own fragrance when your heart becomes a chalice for God's love and the brain and the heart unite in a court and Concord based on eternal verities then all your ways will be pleasantness and all your paths will be paths of peace nothing happens by chance everything is pushed from behind it's a universe of law and order therefore everything happens according to the law of cause and effect there is a cause behind everything we do not see the causes operating in a given instance so we attributed to chance coincidence or accident or things of that nature Charles R was afraid that he was losing his vision he went to an ophthalmologist and learned that he did not have cataracts or glaucoma or any of the usual symptoms leading to blindness further tests found no medical evidence of incipient blindness yet in fact his vision was slowly but surely dimming the medical profession today understands that psychic factors play a definite role in all disease disease is the lack of peace lack of equilibrium lack of serenity it's impossible to have a healthy mind and a sick body a healthy mind is a healthy body nothing happens in the body except the equivalent is in the mind there's no doubt that visual problems can be brought on by workings of the mind emotional reaction can cause the involuntary muscles to twist the eyeball out of shape treating the mental and emotional factors of the individual rather than just concentrating on the eyes may reveal the basic emotional factor the reason why the subconscious mind is selecting an ailment that tends to shut out everything except the immediate surroundings and my conversations with Charles he constantly complained about his mother-in-law who was living in his home if he eminently stated I can't stand the sight of that woman he was full of suppressed rage his emotional system which could not stand the strain any longer selected the eyes as a scapegoat the explanation was the cure in this case he was surprised to learn that negative emotions if persisted in snarl up in the subconscious mind and being negative must have a negative outlet the commands to his subconscious mind were negative I hate the sight of her I don't want to see her anymore I explained to him your subconscious mind takes you literally his statements were accepted by his conscious mind and the subconscious looked upon that as a request and proceeded to bring on loss of vision he and his wife agreed that it would be best if his mother-in-law lived elsewhere they arranged for her to move to a senior citizen facility not too far away however moving her to another residence alone would not solve the problem entirely Charles had to erase his hatred of his mother-in-law from his mind and my suggestion he prayed for her releasing her to God and wishing for her all the blessings of heaven he did it in a very simple way he said I surrender my mother-in-law mentioning her name to God completely I radiate love peace and goodwill to her I wish for her all the blessings of heaven I mean this I'm sincere I decree it it shall all come to pass and the light of God shall shine upon her ways and he continued to do that I explained to him that he would know when he had completely accepted her because he could meet her in his mind and there would be no sting there he would no longer sizzle his vision began to improve almost immediately and soon his eyesight was restored to normal the ophthalmologist looked at his eyes and said you solved your problem and he had solved his problem he could meet her in his mind and there was no sting there he no longer sizzled in the beginning of this we brought out that you should concentrate your thoughts on whatsoever things are true love Lea noble and godlike think on these things because you are what you think all day long and our life is what our thoughts have made it you don't want the irrational mass mind thinking in you do you no you don't if you do not think for yourself you must ask yourself who is manipulating your mind now ask yourself do I own my own mind do I come to my own decisions am I thinking clearly according to God like patterns you cannot dodge or circumvent the law of mind it is done unto you as you believe years ago the English sailors blamed scurvy on the salt meat they had heart attack and so on then someone told them to eat some limes some lemons full of vitamin C and of course they were healed but you see again that was ignorance carelessness indifference stupidity it was a void in the mind because all the islands in all the countries they visited in their long voyages were full of oranges apples limes lemons and all kinds of citrus fruits where was the lack the lack was in the mind a void in the mind ignorant ignorance is no excuse for the law it was carelessness indifference and apathy people are constantly attributing their ailments to the atmosphere to the weather to malpractice evil entities and germs viruses and diets most of us have no doubts that an invisible virus can make us ill but we don't always believe in the invisible presence and power called God which created us and created the whole world we pollute the air with strange notions and false doctrines if we believe that by nearing an electric fan we can catch cold or get a stiff neck that belief when accepted becomes our master and ruler and causes us to experience a cold millions of people sit under fans all over the world they don't get a stiff neck they don't get a cold millions of people go out in the night air they don't get a chill or pneumonia ever millions of people get their feet wet but maybe your mother said when you get your feet wet and you don't dry them and put on new socks you'll get your death of cold or pneumonia or something but the water never said I'll give you pneumonia a chill a fever or anything according to your belief it is done unto you according to your faith it is done unto you your faith should be in the goodness of God in the land of the living and the guidance of God and the healing power of God the abundance of God and in the fact that an infinite intelligence responds to you when you call upon it the fan is harmless it's mechanical its innocuous your faith can be used two ways you can have faith in an invisible virus to give you the flu or you can have faith in the invisible spirit within you to flow through you as harmony health peace guidance and right action as a God or spirit in you cannot be sick and the spirit in you is God what is true of God is true of you because the word individual means the indivisible one that's the living spirit Almighty within you the Bible says I said your gods and all of you are children of the Most High believe that you are a child of the Living God you are believe that the living spirit within you is the god presence and that can't be sick and because that can't be sick that's the reality of you Emerson said we humans think our fate is alien because the cause is hidden but the soul the subconscious mind contains the event that shall befall it for the event is only the actualization of its thoughts what we pray to ourselves for is always granted the devil in the Bible means ignorance or misunderstanding it means a false concept of God life and the universe the devil means ignorance or misunderstanding misapplication of law actually it means God upside down a twisted morbid diabolical concept of the God of love there's no being with hooves horn and a tail this comes out of a distorted twisted imagination not willing to admit that the evil is within ourselves we postulated outside ourselves surely God is omnipresent omnipresent means it must be present in you otherwise the word omnipresent has no meaning a man told me for example that he was wounded in the jungle and he was praying that someone who'd come and rescue him and he said there was a man who was hunting in the jungle and had a sudden feeling that he should change his course he did so and came to an administered to my wound and helped me back to a home the man was wounded was praying for help and this man who was out hunting changed his course he had an intuitive feeling perception it was the infinite intelligence guiding the hunter to become his rescuer but it was the one being operating in both it has done unto you as you believe and a belief is a thought in the mind no external power or evil entity is trying to lure or harm you people are constantly attributing their ailments to the atmosphere the weather and some attribute their trouble to the Voodoo they say it's black magic or someone is practicing voodoo against me no person has any power the power of God is in you one with God is a majority of God be for you who can be against you spell live backwards you have evil that's living life backwards then you have your evil your evil is the inversion of the life principle which is God God moves as unity seeks to express himself through you as a beauty love joy peace and divine order the will of God for you is a great measure of life love truth and beauty something transcending your fondest dreams realize therefore that God is guiding you that there is right action in your life read and meditate on the 91st psalm and realize that you dwell in the secret place the Most High that you abide in the shadow of the Almighty you'll say of the Lord he is my refuge and my fortress my god in him will I trust he covers me with his feathers under his wings shall I trust just like the hen gathers the chickens together to protect them so does that heavenly father in you surround you with the invisible arm of God's love rendering you impervious to all harm you become immunized you become God intoxicated because you've received the divine antibody the false idea in your mind is called the adversary the devil Satan and so on the devil's the devil asar em nity strife hatred they are Devils created by ourselves they drive some people insane because if you put gangsters in charge of your mind what do you expect if you fail to believe in the goodness of God and a God of love the extent to which you believe this can well be your so called devil which is the source of your pains aches and misfortune God or the living spirit almighty or the life principle doesn't judge or punish it can't good and evil are the movements of one's own mind it is very primitive thinking to believe that God is punishing us or that a devil is tempting us our state of consciousness is always made manifest that's the way you think believe and feel whatever you give mental consent to there is no other cause in the world men women and children are constantly testifying to our state of mind to our mental attitudes to our convictions to our beliefs we must remember that the majority of people do not discipline control or direct their thinking and mental imagery along godlike channels therefore their failure to think constructively and harmoniously from the standpoint of the infinite one means that they leave their minds open to the irrational mass mind which is full of fears hates jealousy and all kinds of negative happenings and destructive thinking of all kinds there is a story of a man who had been fired from his job by a cruel and mean boss he made up his mind to shoot him every day he waited behind a shed near the factory for the boss to pass by to avoid being caught he planned to wait for a time when nobody else was near he had a rifle on the third morning when he was stealthily moving into the shed he stumbled the rifle went off and a bullet pierced his heart he killed himself people called that an accident that was no accident he had murder in his heart and murder is of the heart in the Ten Commandments we are told though shalt do no murder it doesn't say thou shalt not kill that is a commonly held belief because of an early miss translation of the original Hebrew when you read the original it says thou shalt do no murder then it tells you that murder is of the heart when you hate and when you resent you are full of hostility and resentment when you are murdering love peace harmony discernment kindness and everything that's good and as you continue to hate and resent these reach a point of saturation in your subconscious mind and are precipitated as cancer a bullet a fatal accident or something else but that negative destructive emotion must have an outlet and sooner or later reaches a point of saturation and is precipitated on the screen of space there are no accidents there is a mind a mood a feeling behind a car a train bicycle and also behind a gun a gun is harmless it is just a piece of metal it doesn't do any harm to anybody it's the mind behind it you can kill with a stone kill with poison with the club a thousand and one ways but the stone is harmless the club is harmless how do you use it the man had murder in his heart for a long time and his subconscious responded accordingly the Bible tells you no manifestation cometh unto me save I the father dried and the father of all your thought and feeling it fathers everything the union of your conscious and subconscious mind your thought and feeling is the cause of your destiny that's the cause of every single thing in your world whatever your conscious and subconscious minds agreed on comes to pass any idea emotionalized and felt as true must come to pass the father is your state of consciousness your own creative power which brings all things to pass in your world no experience comes to you unless there is an affinity in your mind to unlike things repel each other harmony and discord do not dwell together therefore if you believe the whole armor of God surrounds you and folds you and in wraps you and harmonizing healing power of God takes care of you you can't be on a train that gets wrecked you can't be on a plane that catches on fire or where someone planted a bomb if you walk and talk with God and believe that God is guiding you and that the law of harmony is always governing you then you cannot be on a train that is wrecked because as we said discord and harmony do not dwell together it would be naive to assume that changing one's beliefs from negative to positive would cure all illnesses and disabilities there are indeed organic and physical causes for most ailments however there is a significant portion of health problems that are psychosomatic it is these that thought change can reverse I have heard about examples of this in many countries and over many time periods and I have been instrumental in helping many people by providing them with prayers and meditations to help program their subconscious minds to bring them back to health guilt worry and fear are the psychosomatic equivalent of germs and viruses by replacing thoughts of guilt worry and fear with thoughts of faith confidence and belief healing is accelerated most cases are not all dramatic they may take the form of insomnia allergies headaches digestive disorders or depression in other cases they may be major maladies such as tumors paralysis ulcers coronary disease or psychological break downs when afflicted we tend to blame others it may be another person I've been cursed by an enemy and maybe your family history I come from a weak genetic background it may be divine retribution I am being punished by God as shown earlier in this episode the real cause lies within you it is you and only you who have control of your thoughts others may influence you but it is you and only you who can make the decision on what will be accepted by your conscious mind and seep down into your subconscious let us cease blaming others let us look within for the cause of all believe in God believe in the goodness of God believe in the love of God and God's guidance and you will find that all your ways will be those of pleasantness and all your paths will be paths of peace because you are belief expressed people ask me about children they say children don't know how to pray and some children are caught in a fire drowned at sea on a ship and things of that nature while children are under the watchful eyes of their parents and God gave love to all fathers and all mothers the lion and the lioness - to all animals God's love dwells within the father and mother and it is their mission to cause that child to grow in the image and likeness of the divine presence of God they are there to realize that the child grows up in the image and the likeness of the dominant mental and emotional climate of the home the child cannot yet discern and reason therefore the parents mold the consciousness of the child a child is subject to the atmosphere of the home therefore you realize that the child is God's child and God's love fills its soul it's growing in wisdom truth and beauty God planted his love in fathers and mothers that they might lead their children through the darkness of the night and through the vicissitudes of life into a realization of God's holy presence and to teach him of God's love and that the love of God is flowing through them in transcendent loveliness and that he careth for them and children brought up to believe that God is love and his lovin folds them surrounds them and in wraps them will grow in a magnificent way and God will be with them all the days of their life in a nutshell when your thoughts are completely free from fear and worry you are thinking from the standpoint of the divine center within you and God speaks thinks and acts through you therefore you speak in words of wisdom truth and beauty words of harmony health and peace you think therefore from the God Center within if you do not think constructively harmoniously and peacefully the mass mind will do your thinking for you and that mass mind believes in tragedy misfortune sickness disease accidents hate murder and all sorts of things if you don't do your own thinking these negative vibrations or thoughts of the mass mind move in upon you reach a point of saturation precipitate as accident misfortune sickness and disease the law of life is the law of belief if you fear sickness you attract it if you think good health you will be healthy the law of the Lord is perfect you can't think one thing and produce another trouble of any kind is nature's alarm system that we are thinking wrongly in that direction nothing but a change of thought can set us free there is no worse suffering than a guilty conscience and certainly none more destructive stop condemning yourself and begin to accept that the infinite healing presence saturates your whole being that God dwells in every cell of your body it is done unto you as you believe and a belief is a thought in the mind no external power or evil entity is trying to war or harm you no person has any power the power of God is in you one with God is a majority if God be for you who can be against you guilt worry and fear are the psychosomatic equivalent of germs and viruses by replacing thoughts of guilt worry and fear with thoughts of faith confidence and belief Healing is accelerated join me in a recitation of the following affirmations and psalms with a small moment of silence at the end God flows through me as harmony health peace joy wholeness and perfection God walks and talks in me Godspell is always around me wherever I go God's wisdom governs me in all my ways divine right action prevails all my ways are ways of pleasantness and all my paths are peace God's love surrounds me and folds me and in wraps me God walks and talks in me I'm surrounded by the sacred circle of God's eternal love and the whole armor of God surrounds me Psalm 91 he that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty I will say of the Lord he is my refuge and my fortress my god in him will I trust surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the Fowler and the noisome pestilence he shall cover thee with his feathers and under his wings shalt thou trust his truth shall be thy shield and buckler thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night nor for the arrow that flieth by day nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday a Thousand shall fall at thy side and ten thousand at thy right hand but it shall not come nigh thee only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked because thou hast made the Lord which is my refuge even the most high thy habitation there shall no evil befall thee neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling for he shall give his angels charge over thee to keep thee in all thy ways they shall bear thee up in their hands lest thou dash thy fool against a stone thou shall tread upon the lion and adder the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet because he hath set his love upon me therefore will I deliver him I will set him on high because he hath known my name he shall call upon me and I will answer him I will be with him in trouble I will deliver him and honor him with long life will i satisfy him and show him my salvation Psalm 27 the Lord is my light and my salvation whom shall I fear the Lord is my strength of my life of whom shall I be afraid when the wicked even mine enemies and my foes came upon me to eat my flesh they stumbled and fell though a host should encamp against me my heart shall not fear the war should rise against me in this I will be confident one thing have I desired of the Lord that I will seek after that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life to behold the beauty of the Lord and to enquire in his temple for in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion in the secret of his Tabernacle shall he hide me he shall set me up on a rock and now shall mine had be lifted up above mine enemies round about me therefore will I offer in his Tabernacle sacrifices of joy I will sing yay I will sing praises unto the Lord here O Lord when I say with my voice have mercy also upon me and answer me when thou sets Sikhi my face my heart said unto thee thy face Lord will I seek hide not thy face far from me put not thy servant away in anger thou hast been my help leave me not neither forsake me O God of my salvation when my father and my mother forsake me when the Lord will take me up teach me the way Oh Lord and lead me in a plain path because of mine enemies deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies for false witnesses are risen up against me and such as breathe out cruelty I had fainted unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord is the land of the living wait on the Lord be of good courage and he shall strengthen thine heart wait I say on the Lord Psalm 23 the Lord is my shepherd I shall not want he maketh me to lie down in green pastures he leadeth me beside the still waters he restoreth my soul he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for thou art with me thy rod and thy staff they comfort me thou prepares a table before me in the presence of mine enemies thou anointest my head with oil my cup runneth over surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever psalm 46 god is our refuge and strength a very present help in trouble therefore will not we fear though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea though the waters thereof roar and be troubled though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof salaah there is a river the streams that whereof shall make glad the City of God the holy place of the Tabernacles of the Most High God is in the midst of her she shall not be moved God shall help her and that right early the heathen raged the kingdom's were moved he uttered his voice the earth melted the Lord of Hosts is with us the God of Jacob is our refuge Salah come behold the works of the Lord what desolations he hath made in the earth he maketh Wars to cease unto the end of the earth he breaketh the bow and cutteth the spear in sunder he Byrne a--the the chariot in the fire be still and know that I am God I will be exalted among the heathen I will be exalted in the earth the Lord of Hosts is with us the God of Jacob is our refuge Salah for Psalm blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly nor standeth in the way of sinners nor sitteth in the Sea of the scornful but his delight is in the law of the Lord and in his law doth he meditate day and night and he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that bringeth forth his fruit in his season his leaf also shall not wither and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper the ungodly are not so but are like the chaff which the wind drive it away therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous for the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous but the way of the ungodly Shall Perish I know that the answer to my problem lies in the gods self within me I now get quiet still and relaxed I am at peace I know God speaks in peace and not in confusion I am now in tune with the infinite I know and believe implicitly that infinite intelligence is revealing to me the perfect answer I think about the solution to my problems I now live in the mood I would have were my problem solved I truly live in this abiding faith and Trust which is the mood of the solution this is the Spirit of God moving within me the Spirit is omnipotent it is manifesting itself my whole being rejoices in the solution I am glad I live in this feeling and give thanks I know that God has the answer with God all things are possible God is the living spirit Almighty within me he is the source of all wisdom and illumination the indicator of the presence of God within me as a sense of peace and poise I now cease all sense of strain and struggle I trust the god power implicitly I know that all the wisdom and power I need to live a glorious and successful life are within me I relax my entire body my faith is in His wisdom I go free I claim and feel the peace of God flooding my mind heart and whole being I know the quiet mind gets its problem solved I now turn the request over to the God presence knowing it has an answer I release the pattern in me that created this I am at peace I am worth while I trust the process of life I am safe I allow my thoughts to be free the past is over I am at peace I am a divine expression of life I love and accept myself where I am right now I now discover how wonderful I am I choose to love and enjoy myself I lovingly take care of my body my mind and my emotions [Music] thank you Father now let us go into the silence [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] and I really loved in that particular lecture by Joseph Murphy it had some great points I found it very powerful and it was perfect for this time that I'm reading it now key points just to mention as we review this chapter he mentions the importance of how you think one of the great things that Joseph Murphy teaches is how to think and focusing on wisdom truth and beauty harmony and health going within and finding your Divine Center when you eliminate fruit fear and worry and guilt from your thinking you come to that divine center something that's mentioned in here is the mass mind and it's a very simple idea the ideas if you're not creating your reality the mass mind will create your reality this is discussed in reality Tran surfing where the mass mind is the pendulum a pendulum wants you to do a certain thing or thinks a certain thing and it creates reality you see it with the media you see it on social media you see it with politics the mass mind another important concept that's very very clearly described in here that's very important no matter how much you hate somebody or angry with somebody or want something terrible to happen somebody and that happens all the time you see something terrible on TV and your anger about what that person did is so terrible that you want something bad to happen to him he needs the death penalty something bad needs to happen to them that means that you're saying it that you are okay for that happening to yourself [Music] when you look at a politician and you say how angry you are at that politician that you hope that they die that they get sick and you think terrible thoughts about them remember they are you so you are thinking these thoughts about yourself so it's easy when you turn on the TV you'll see people that you hate you'll see people to be angered about remember everybody that you see is yourself and his discussion of the devil is brought back here the idea that the devil is just a misapplication of the law it's miss thinking and that the law of life is the law of belief and so if you fear sickness you will attract it and if you fear any of these things you magnetize and attract them his discussion of guilt is so important I have suffered from massive guilt for things I have done in my life to the point that I was incapable of doing anything and when I was forgiven then I was able to forgive myself because it for some of the stuff I did I had somebody else forgive me and when they did it lifted a burden off me and I realized I had been limiting and I do not believe that I deserved to have success or could do the things I wanted to do because I didn't deserve it we all have things that we can feel guilty about some people can feel guilty about things that neither you or I would feel guilty about it could be that they cheated on a game of Monopoly when they're in 10th grade but some people for that's it all that is enough so we need to let go of the past and we need to forgive ourselves [Music] that is how we fix this so let go of your guilt let's go of your worry and fear those are the greatest viruses that are spreading right now hate fear anger worry and guilt are spreading the land and it can be spread a symptomatically and even if you're wearing a mask or have gloves on you can still get it it is airborne it is brain borne so protect yourself and there is only one vaccine and that is right thinking go within and think the right thoughts focus on the right things now I know that we all have bad things happen and I'm not making light of that in any way and like you said sometimes bad things happen no matter what and why did it happen to you but there is a certain percentage of times when bad things happen because of something that you were thinking when you even if you're not thinking it if you release your thoughts and say I'm not gonna even worry about the future then the mass mind will think for you the mass mind has had race riots in the 60s in the 70s in the 80s in the 90s so it's part of the mass mind we start having these things and they're understandable the mass mind will recreate over and over events if you want to get sucked into that little let the mass mind do your thinking for you so it's important for you to think your own thoughts and not be thinking by the mass mind which is so easy it happens so often I hope that those wonderful Psalms and prayers at the end of this chapter will help you to mark your subconscious mind so that you can avoid misfortune and you can avoid accidents another really interesting discussion in reality Tran surfing is when you get on a train if you have a certain feeling in your heart then you know in some other reality that you may have it I've had a train accident I love that concept well it's the same thing you're connecting to that God self within you you are aware of all the possible realities and you are told you're not going to have major accidents or things happen to you you can avoid these things when you tune in to your heart your heart has access to all the space of variations in the quantum field it knows all the possible things that can happen to you and you can avoid them by listening to your heart so many people left the buildings during 9/11 why because something told them so many people have so many stories where they have not gone on a plane because they knew it was going to or they didn't get on a train in fact there was a scientific study that showed that train caches actually show a statistically lower number of people getting on the train maybe they forget to go or something happens that's because those people are tuned in to their God mind not saying the others aren't but by tuning into it you can become aware of the flow of the space of variations in the quantum field and have an awareness a lingering awareness that lights the way just ahead of you enough so that you can avoid misfortune and you can't do that you can't tune into your heart when you're tuning into fear that distorts your perceptions of this field so it's important even if it feels like you're faking it to find joy and happiness and Wonder to focus on those positive and peaceful things and if you can't then give yourself in an affirmation or prayer that you can repeat that seems to be the easiest way because you're gonna have fearful thoughts but mark them and consciously try to change them by using the power of your word to do it I hope that this helps you to understand the answer to the question why did this happen to me please keep a lookout for all future episodes we got so many cool episodes on the way can't wait for you to hear them please leave a review on my book the reality revolution the mind-blowing movement to hack your reality or leave a review on audible

misfortunes happen and can we avoid them what is your opinion I am wishing the greatest love and happiness and joy for you right now for whoever hears this from now until the end of time and I can
