The importance of practice

There is a saying – practice makes perfect and it is just as true if not more so in spiritual practices. If you hear something and it strikes a chord with you, why do you not take note and practice it? Why? Why? Why?

It could save you a lot of time and perhaps a lot of strife. I remember very well, sitting in a decree session and the idea came to me that the planet earth could be any size I chose. This means I could contain it in my heart and I immediately thought ‘ No that’s silly.’ But it wasn’t.

That is the problem when you allow the monkey mind in. It will distract you and talk you out of what you need to do. So you need to control that monkey mind or it will control you. Breathing practices are quite good for this, since when you slow down your breathing, there are fewer of those thoughts.

If you hold your breath, there will be no thoughts, though after a while the thought to breathe once more will become paramount. This may not be earth shattering news to you. You can take it in your stride. For some reason a well known comedian came to mind as the epitome of that sort of vacuous thinking.

It is the ‘I’m okay Jack, She’ll be right’, consciousness which has no sense of striving for anything and is happy to just coast along on past merit or even someone else’s merit. That is not the path to the ascension. It is a byway and path perhaps into the astral plane.

It takes no effort, just stroll by the river. It would be better to at least march in time because that ties you in to the Mother. If you love doing something you practice it. If you know there is something you should do – practice it. Everything is hard until it becomes easy.

The exercise of leaving your body given in the seventh KOF lesson, is something that needs practicing, whether you believe it or not. Try it! There is no harm in trying this. Why do you falter? Is there a fear that it might work? Or perhaps there is a fear that it won’t work.

It doesn’t matter. You just need to do the practice. How can you become proficient in anything unless you practice? It just isn’t possible. You can practice feeling the electronic presence of Jesus over you but do you? When you give the judgment call and you say ‘I invoke the Electronic Presence of Jesus Christ.’ Do you feel it?

Try to allow yourself to feel the electronic presence of Jesus Christ. Try to allow yourself to feel your Holy Christ Self. These are real people. How can you become them unless you start to feel them? What is it like to feel like the Goddess of Liberty? I could tell you but that will not help you to feel it.

You need to practice feeling what it is like to be the Master you invoke. It will get easier over time, as you practice.
