This week I learned something I could add to my new reality. A new thought started a train of causation which created a condition in accordance to the quality of the thought which originated it. Here is a 5 min audio sharing it.
As I have read in Haanel, it is unwise to coerce the Universal. Instead, with principles of right thinking in place, we are welcome to concentrate on the fact that “In him we live and move and have our being.”
Science helping us create our new reality
Not only does Haanel state that these principles are scientifically true but Napoleon Hill asserts them as well. Wallace Wattles in “The Science Of Getting Rich“, obviously states them too. I am hearing over and over that science does for us something we may not be able to do alone. It hypothesizes and concludes, questions and analyzes. We are so privileged to receive the results in books like “The Master Key.”
The Bible and Reality
Some people say that what we believe may be a lie. So belief without scientific proof is unstable and therefore may not be true enough for the subconscious mind to take in. Of course with auto suggestion, we secure it further. However, scientific proof seems to make it easy for us to accept. The quality of the thought will grant us the condition equal to the thought.
Faith and Reality
Aligning with Infinite Intelligence, Universal Mind, God, begins with “sitting” for 15 – 30 minutes daily in contemplation of our thoughts. Amazingly, by law of attraction we can measure the quality of our thoughts as we sit. For instance.. sit and think about negative things and the quality of the thought by law of attraction will give you negative conditions. It matters not the the kind of thought. Seed gives back the fruit of that seed.
What is the best reality?
We have learned that God is love, life, soul, spirit, intelligence, truth and principle. Principle is the wealth of life. Our best reality as we discover our authentic self and purpose is alignment with the quality thoughts of Universal Mind – God. When we breathe in, we breathe in the breath of life.. the essence of God. So by acknowledging and learning more and more, we forever reach optimistically for a grander reality of life. Purpose is not far behind.

I am because he is. I am spirit and I am made in his image and likeness. This is my best reality.
It’s very interesting that the search for truth is a systematic process, logical in operation in which experiences have a voice in shaping decisions.
For many years I have been on the journey to experience my true purpose. What I was seeking is “cause.” Yet in the past, I was searching for “effect.” Now I understand that when we ascertain the cause by conscious control the effect will be within our control also and no longer a search but a destiny we align with.
Physical, Mental, Moral and Spiritual Life and Principle
In working through this material, seeing the connection between the many contrasting names given to extremes speaks to the fact that all things are relative and therefore all part of the one. In the physical, we see sizes, colors, shades or ends of all things. In the mental world we know extremes of ignorance and knowledge. One former being the absence of the latter.
The most interesting part of this is that one has life and the other has no life principle. Knowledge overcomes ignorance. In the physical world, light destroys darkness. Therefore though everything is part of the whole, as we move towards the one, the other dissipates.
In the moral world, good overtakes bad. The scripture that comes up for me is “Be not overcome by evil but overcome evil with good.” Jesus stated “Resist not evil but turn from it.” This tells us something wonderful.
There is no power at the other end of the extremes. The power and life principle is always better towards the positive side of the contrast.
And then the spiritual world speaks of Mind and matter. The contrasts indicate that matter is a condition which is ever changing and difficult to hold onto. Where Mind is omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient. Because Mind is pure spirit it is static. We as human beings have been given power to experience all these contrasts. Many find peace as they move towards the spirit that never changes. For this cause, many great effects are understood and experienced.
Mind is the real and eternal. Matter is ever changing. Animals come and go in a single year. The apparent continents arose from the ocean. We are in the presence of continual change, or evolution of the Universal Mind. We come to know matter as form which Mind takes and is simply a condition.
Matter and Principle
Matter has no principle. This got me thinking as to what part of principle our physical body contains. Are we but matter? Are we life principle? Perhaps we’re a combination?
Haanel states that Mind is static and uses human thought to act upon Universal Mind and convert it from static mind into dynamic mind, or mind in motion.
So it seems that he asserts that “God” or Universal Mind has a purpose for our thoughts. The Bible states that we are made in the image of God. This is about as close to that truth as I’ve read anywhere.
Questions About Principle
We have a very interesting life. We come into this body with a purpose. We may ask “what is that purpose?” Are we pawns in the Universal picture.. doing God’s bidding? Did we choose to enter the body? Who is in charge?
Those questions are generally asked by someone who’s hanging out near the negative end of the extremes of life. Better questions might be: Life is a beautiful experience and what can I do to help others by my thoughts? What can I choose that might help mankind to live more abundantly? Is my purpose to satisfy myself or others? If I am part of nature, how may I better do my work with enthusiasm?
These statements are more in harmony with divine purpose because they speak in terms of surety and purpose, as well as enthusiasm and peace. These are the kinds of questions from individuals who understand the power of being in harmony with Universal Mind.
When Haanel says that we must change polarity, simply put we just need to head in the other direction towards “God.” Then in order to live our true purpose, we must understand the nature of God and the plans for the evolution of mankind.

One thing is for sure: God is life, love, intelligence, truth, spirit, soul and principle. When seeking principle, purpose is not far away.
The Intelligent Thought of the Mind
The Master Key Part 18
The Intelligent Thought of the Mind
Haanel speaks of man’s intelligence having levels of effectiveness. The greater the intelligence, the higher the scale and the greater the increase of effectiveness.
In it’s essence, energy is the exhibition of Mind or Will. Everything is sustained by this omnipotent intelligence. As an individual, the degree of intelligence I have to control modes of action and adjust myself to my environment, I determine how much power I have to manifest my vision.
Vision, Faith and Service with Thought
Haanel asserts that the world is on the eve of a new consciousness, a new power, and a new realization within the self. Considering he wrote this in the early 20’s, and knowing what we know now, I’d say he was correct. Online, we hear word that we are in the “information age.” Others are now speaking that we’re actually moving into the “transformation age.” Thought is being liberated and truth is rising full orbed before an astonished multitude.
“Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind” – The Bible
Obedience and Thought
To my understanding, the greatest minds are those who adjust and recognize that there is an existing order in Universal Mind. We are in harmony with this Mind when we recognize the order and work with it. As we do, this Mind harmonizes with our mind.
The following are ways we can be in thought harmony
1. Recognize Natural Laws and we possess great power
2. Know Universal intelligence permeates all things and can be called into action and responds to every demand.
3. Thought is creative and originates in Universal Mind, which is the source and foundation of all energy and substance.
4. We are channels of distribution for this energy
5. We are the various combinations for phenomena, depending on the vibration
6. Universal Thought made human beings who were transformed into beings who think, know , feel and act.
7. Proper understanding gives us access to communication with Universal Mind.
8. Science has proven concepts to become “facts”, so they become practical and therefore need not attach “belief” to them.
9. Facts are living Faith and Truth.
10. Facts are tested well and useful to mankind. e.g. telescope
11. Practical knowledge of the law of attraction shows atoms being attracted to each other in infinite degrees of intensity.
12. The purpose of existence is for the combining to the ends of things which are brought together and is carried into effect in this way.
13. Growth is met in the beautiful manner through the instrumentality of Universal principle.
14. To grow, we need the essentials. We are complete already. Because of this, in order to receive, we must give.
15. Growth’s conditioned on reciprocal action on the mental plane. Like attracts like.
16. Mental vibrations respond to the extent of their vibrational harmony.
e.g. thoughts of abundance respond to similar thoughts.
17. Wealth of an individual is seen to be what he inherently is. Affluence within is found to be the secret of attraction for affluence without.
18. The ability to produce is found to be the real source of wealth of the individual.
19. When you have an authentic purpose, your heart is in it. Because of this, you will produce greatly and affluence is the effect.
20. As we give and continually give, the more we give, the more we receive.
The Domain of Causation and Thought
The domain of causation is the highest evolution of human consciousness. Where air is the energy that keeps our human body alive, thought is the energy that keeps the spirit alive.
The Sweet Spot of Thought
When we get to the place of “the wonder of how it’s going to happen,” we have a great understanding of the harmony of thought with Universal Mind. Understanding the domain of causation is the intelligence Haanel starts Chapter 18 off with.

Let this be our prayer: Oh God, let the nature of my seed be secured upon my greatest perception of law in the mighty domain of causation. Let my thought be pure.
According to Haanel, “as we esteem most highly those useful qualities of men which are of the rarest occurrence, so does natural philosophy sift the facts and attach a preeminent importance to that striking class which cannot be accounted for by the usual and daily observation of life.”
As one who has seen what is known as miracles of healing, for many years, I could not tell you how a person was healed other than that something unaccountable happened. I just figured that we were to do as Jesus did. “Go, lay hands on the sick and they will be healed”. As part of a prayer ministry on the streets of NY and NJ, we had “miracles of healing” happen.
But now, what I have learned from Haanel is the scientific understanding of “demand and surplus”, or cause and effect. The following is an explanation of a spiritual game of a sort called “Treasure hunt”.
About 8-12 of us got together in a church setting. We’d listen to worship music by a music minister of the healing kind. We’d raise our hands and openly say things like “We praise you Lord”, “Thank you Lord, Thank you Father”. “You are the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end.” Some times we’d knee down or lay face down on the floor for an hour. Other times, we might carry a banner and walk up and down the isle with faith that the flag and the gesture carried in it some form of faith and praise to the Father. Our faith was so aroused during the worship time that we’d feel a strong desire to say something to another person in the group. This something many times was an encouragement to bless them.
Creative thought and the Unaccountable
What I did not realize until this class was that this group was actually a “mastermind group.” Our minds became a greater mind and we’d know things that we may not know without coming together like we did. So after 30 minutes or more of praise and worship, we’d find a quiet place and believe we’d receive “clues” for our treasure hunt. If I were to state it according to Haanel’s explanation, we were setting an intention and then “sitting”. We’d allow these clues to light upon us. We’d see visions of “things” like a wrought iron railing, a peace sign, a purple flowered shirt, a red suit, a statue, the name Mark, a basketball player, a person who got migranes, the word “love”. We’d gather afterward and compare lists; make note of “like” clues and then decide where we’d go for our treasure hunt.
The intention was right out of Haanel’s “The Master Key”. Our burning desire was follow God’s will to pray for the sick so they will be healed. Our game of choice was Treasure Hunt. We took the clues, decided on the location and park the car or get off the bus or train. We’d all be “in the zone” and ready to see the miracles happen. And they did! We’d sight one of the clues and get excited. We’d see a purple flowered shirt on a person. We’d see the wrought iron railing. We’d see the red cap and the peace sign. With each sighting, we’d go with boldness to individuals either right their or nearby and begin chatting asking them some questions. Most often, we’d have an opportunity to pray for them. Many times they were at least encouraged. However, on many many occasions, we prayed (put a demand on the universe) and command the healing on their foot, their hands, their back, on arthritis and more.
Creative Law of Attraction
What we called “miracles” were actually the law of attraction at work. The energy in the height of our faith brought a change in the person immediately. If this interests you, you can view the video “The Finger of God” in this post above. This is one ministry using “creative thought” to influence a change in a person’s faith, mind, and body.
Haanel states in #12 of chapter 13: “every honest investigator admits that there are many strange and previously unaccountable phenomena constantly taking place. Those, however, who become acquainted with the creative power of thought, will no longer consider them unaccountable.”
This is now my understanding. What I did in ignorance is actually the science of the law of attraction at it best. This cause and effect, this demand and surplus principle raises my faith to new levels because I understand it from knowledge rather than “mystery”.
“Every phenomenon is the result of an accurate definite cause, and the cause is an immutable law or principle, which operates with invariable precision, whether the law is put into operation consciously or unconsciously.” The Master Key
Creative Thought, Gratitude and Wealth
Now it is understandable how to bring into manifestation persons, places and things. God assists me in bringing into operation the law of attraction. The vibration of praise and worship (gratitude) are the forces which make for success and brings about conditions of power and affluence. Power and affluence are in direct proportion with the character and purpose of the affirmation.
Creative Intention and Feelings
This is what we are reading, writing, recording, singing, and feeling with our DMP (Definite major purpose). Creative thought begins by intention. We ask the question “What do I want?” The intention is the demand. How powerful that it’s okay to place a demand on the universe, without guilt or shame. When we take out the superstition or worry that we’ll offend God by being selfish or whatever nonsense our ignorance kept us handicapped by, the power, courage, kindliness and sympathy come naturally.
My goal is to live naturally; that all I do comes to me with ease, quickly, as the subconscious mind draws it up and I say it. There is more to all of this and I affirm the statement at the end of Chapter 13:
“God – Increase in me wisdom which discovers my truest interest. Strengthen my resolution to perform that which wisdom dictates. “Franklin
Haanel says in The Master Key “Educated desire is the most potent means of bringing into action the law of attraction. If you are in our MKMMA course, you will have learned that God assists us in bringing into operation the law of attraction, which brings us into vibration with forces which make for success and brings about conditions of power and affluence. This power and affluence is in direct proportion with the character and purpose of our affirmation.
So what educated desire do you have?
It’s been suggested that a very large percentage of people have weak desire. In years past, while I was young and immature, I has some strong desires but they were few and far between. They were strong for a short time and then shifted to something else I wanted. Knowing what I know now, I suggest you take a serious look at what you desire and how persistent you are at seeing it through to completion.
Persistence and Desire
These 2 principles go hand and hand but one comes before the other. What I was missing in my youth was a strong desire that I persistently held until I succeeded. In school. I loved art and did persist in it. Being creative, I stumbled upon talents in many areas of art. I was encouraged to pursue it in college. What I remember from my childhood, was my love for teaching and that desire stayed with me, though primarily on the inside, until I felt mature enough to have something to teach. I loved teaching children and knew I had enough knowledge to do that. I pursued a Montessori certificate and knew I was in sync with my teaching gift!
Strong Desire
When I moved out of state due to a traumatic experience, I decided to pursue teaching Montessori in NJ while living with my parents. The requirements differed from Florida and I was expected to create whole books of exercises I was not required to do in Florida. I decided to take an easier route and look for another job. My weak desire and a feeling of financial pressure carried me into a billing office job. Before long, I knew my job but it was nothing like teaching those little children how to read.
Many years have passed. I married, had children and home-schooled them using the stills I’d been taught in my Montessori training. My love for teaching persisted. Of late, I teach leadership skills to the teachable, moldable plastic minds of individuals on the lookout for coaching in relationship marketing. Teaching has turned to coaching and my desire has grown more focused.
Focused Desire
Old or young, we all have a great opportunity to turn our dreams into reality. Yet, a weak desire for these dreams will take us down the stream to poverty. Do you want to know the secret to riches? To wealth? To success? STRONG BURNING DESIRE!
How do we get a burning desire?
Begin now to create the necessary brain cells which will enable you to comprehend the unlimited powers which may be yours by cooperating with natural law. This is done by concentration or attention.
Haanel writes “The intention governs the attention.” Power comes through repose (a state of rest, sleep, or tranquility). It’s by concentration that deep thoughts , wise speech, and all forces of high potentiality are accomplished.”
My Burning Desire
In plain English, we’re taught that this part of the process, which means “sitting” still for 15-30 minutes a day in quiet contemplation and even in quieting the mind. As we adjust our self to the deeper forces at work inside us and giving ourselves over to this “infinite intelligence”, we begin to allow the unfolding of creative ideas. Using our creative imagination, we may enjoy a pretty scene where a dear friend sits with us and we chat about life. We may take a walk or a run with Jesus or a mentor we have learned from in the past. Later, our concentration on this deep rest will reveal ideas to us. It will most definitely affirm us in some way.
Recently in my sit, I was encouraged to take on the name “Caryn The Courageous”. This triggered for me an idea for a book. It is burning desire and concentration on observing and listening that helps us control and direct our thoughts toward prosperous directions.
Demand and Desire
Science speaks of demand and surplus. Our burning desire is like “demand” in science. When there is a demand placed out there in the universe and burning inside us, our subconscious mind has no other course than to find the surplus to meet that demand. Natural law is set up to do this.
Today, realize that God assists us in bringing into operation the law of attraction bringing us into vibration with forces which make for success and brings about conditions of power and affluence. These will be in direction proportion with the character and purpose of the affirmation.
So what is your affirmation? If it’s a strong desire, it means you will be passionate about it. This passion is a feeling the subconscious mind recognizes as a high vibration. High vibrations get met first! So find a strong desire (your definite major purpose) , affirm it out loud over and over, daily, and the manifestation of it will sneak up behind you, chase you down and run you over!
“See if I will not pour out a blessing too numerous for you to contain.” The Bible
