Address to the Gathering
The Book of Enlightenment - A guide to a better life
Sunday 15th September 1935
Listen as words as a thought
There is something you have never been taught
Spare me a moment you will never regret
This is the most beautiful religion yet
Whether you are weak or whether you are strong
This will surely help you along
It is something strong it is something new
But it will be worthwhile to such as you.
As you shall address the masses
Mr Chairman fellow workers and friends I deem it a great pleasure to be privileged to address such an audience as is gathered here today. It is with confidence that I bring to you the words of wisdom and truth. We have assembled upon this platform many friends who have worked silently and efficiently in our investigation and research for the confirmation of the truth of the words of God.
To many among you these words may sound strange but I am confident that you will find many phases and thoughts of wisdom and truth in them. You people whose faith has just been shattered I can bring you a message of Hope and Light in simple words that you will better understand. Material life governed and controlled by what you term a personal death the explanations of the vibrating influences that control and govern the material forces. These vibrations are unrecognised by many who attend here. If you desire the truth and knowledge of God the Supreme Power if you will but trust in that Power with an open mind for one short hour and give your unbiased attention I may be privileged to bring to your minds a new thought that will enable you to realise the truth and light that will enable you to see throughout your material journey that which has shone unheeded unrecognised.
You will realise that the friends assembled upon the platform have also doubted but through their searches and investigation have realised the controlling elements of force that prevails in the activities of all material kind.
What is this force? Is it true? Can it be the survival of the dead? Life after death? The personality of material existence has very often been misconstrued through our own inability to realise the truth of personality. Personality is but a characteristic force a recognisable force applicable to a person characteristic of that person.
This enables you to say with confidence "that is my departed friend I recognise the voice the laughter" that's the personality.
Did you ever stop to realise that force of vibrating influences received by that personality was but the creation of that force.
I realise that the things I have said may not be understood by many here but come again and endeavour to learn more of this governing influence this creation of personality and perhaps you will understand many of the things which in the past have not been understood.
We are all governed in a way by personality very much something akin to our own desires. Desires guide us to Heaven or Hell. Our own greediness or vanity tuned to receive that which is desirable to our own inclinations creating as it were our own personality but a force a predominating force a Power receptive to the Controlling forces of God or the opposing forces to God. Come often my friends and learn the truth. If you wish to find the Light to enjoy the sunshine and smiles of the Power of God listen carefully to words that have been brought to you one of the many messages that will be revealed to those who desire to learn.
