Dear LVCSL Spiritual Family,

Thank you for your kind remarks about my presentation on “Mental Equivalent” from the book written by Emmet Fox. I also read two quotes from Ernest Holmes’ book “This Thing Called You” and highly recommend it to you. For your easy reference, below are the four salient Mental Equivalent ideas from my presentation.

 #1. What is a Mental Equivalent?:

A Mental Equivalent is a picture you form in your mind of the material expressions you want to manifest in your life. To mindfully and consciously create anything you want in life, you must create a mental equivalent.

 #2. How to Create a Mental Equivalent:

You build the mental equivalent by thinking quietly, constantly, and persistently of the kind of thing you want. A sincere feeling and with interest must be present for a mental equivalent to be implanted firmly in your thought pattern.

 #3. Mental Equivalent versus Outlining:

To have clarity of thought, you want to be clear and definite, but not too specific. If you state when, where, and give a time limit, that is Outlining. Our part is to form the mental equivalent for “the what” and then leave it up to Spirit to create “the how and when” for us.
 
#4. Sustaining a Mental Equivalent:

To purposely change something in your life – you must mindfully and consciously change your thought and keep it changed by standing vigilant guard over your thoughts. Since two thoughts cannot occupy the same space, you destroy the patterns for the thing you don’t want, and they will disappear when you replace those old patterns with what you want.

 At this time in our lives, with all that is going on all around us, let’s decide today to mindfully create, hold and sustain the mental equivalent of peace, of perfect health, and oneness. Because when all is said and done, we’re ALL created by Spirit from Its desire to express Itself in us, and therefore we’re ALL one human family. Thank you.

 

Namasté,
Rev Anna
