wor16 over than politics, hut politicians boast of Its

triciness. business boasts of its fair dealing. and

demonstrates it in the transactions of the whole. world.'

It is the maniDulatio of our finances in nigher places

that needs the help of this spiritual man, the higher law.

bo man who lacks faith in God, as a political power

7-

awaitinr the call of his 1.)eople, should he intrusted with

the lianaG.e- ent of public affairs,in timesof great emergency

or at any other times. -raith in the suoremacy of truth and

ri,:.7hteousness is better than an army • to the man who has

Eroat public ideas before hi.i-a; so we se,.• that we need a

masten today. 4" need amax--, or a wo-i. a.zi to lead the wole

world instead of son one nation, because the world has

becoe involved in sense depression. The neative elements

of the race th.-,uht, the. worl -.11 around, have begun to roll in

uon this conscios mind of ours.

L)ea whici-, the C;hildren of Israel were up aainst

is the sea of mortal thought in which we all think', in which

we feel and move. We may not be conscious of it, but our minds •

are all, in a Way, in this (7-Peat sea of. tou7T-it. Your thought

and my thout are; tinctured by what the world thinks. We •get

it through the newspaper. We get it through. contact with those

9

with whom we associate, and we get it from within our own

meditatnns, because ti.r,our.7hts are catching, and whatever,

dominant idea is in the air, somebody will get it and talk

about it, even thou[7h it be just the weather. i,nd yet. like

our cortant t alk E-Lo..;_t the weather, Lark Twain says, "I:obody

ever does anythin about it." •:ih7:7 don't 76 get busy and con-,

trol the weather instead of talking about it?

That is what L.oses did to this lied sea, this sea of

o-rns .11-: to the rIlnds of t'noe who

becin to think a.:J.out the sources of existence, the E,DrCe

of life. .::'Cr'E. k__Of' It COI( frGI; .z EE;' it col,c_r Clr an-

cestors. Yos, but life was before our ancestors; life existed.

eternally. it is; so it n,ust be an cx_nipresent principle, and

as we :.ceditate a. out that, life bscins o open u] :itnin us,

and we see that we are 'alive now. e are livinc, beincs, and

we need to catch hold of this mysterious somethinr:. which we

11

call as cc about it we break into this sea of

life. de live in it as a fish lives ir the sea. T-Ic fish

saw, there is life? I have never seen it. .:1(1-e is

the water?" de live in life in this same way, aid if the

consciousness within us is ne::ative; that is, if -e look on

the dark side, immediately throurT.i our thnkin[.1 capacity

;(-) male contact with that nei:ative or darIT side of life, and

we be cone swamped; we co down into the depths.

That is represented by t'flese hyntian. Thalliv in

material thour,.ht, tn bui]t great material structures, they

worshiped materiality, a7-id when their minds were openec. uT:, to

the material, psychic realm do= the-: went; but the Children

of Israel--and let us saw that the Children of Israel and

the Lcyptians are both existing, in our m5_nds. just two nares

for two phases of thought, and as we open up,tbrough the law,

this spiritual side we open up also the material side. It is

13

said that no man ever of into heaven except he waned

thrcnhh hell first-so the Children of Israel

up the heavens of t7n..e mind, mere up against this realm of

negativeness in them, this something tha: says in us, 4Y
