PROSPERITYS A STATEOF MIND

Prosperity is a state of mind in whicD one has happiness and peacewithin and about oneself. Some people may have a few thousanddollars in the bank and co~sider themselves prosperous, while othersmay have a million and feel that they are not prosperous, as yet.Prosperity is not only financial, but also includes areas. of love,health and happiness. Having one of these things without the othersis not true prosperity.

Prosperity is usually thought of only in terms of finances but suchthinking is erroneous. The mind must feel a "wealth" about life inan areas. To have a mental attitude that works for financial pros-perity, one should think of oneself as also being prosperous inpeace, love, wi sdom, health, etc. The mind, then, more COMPLETELYaccepts that 1i fe has a great deal to offer. I f a person feelsimpoverished in love, that area of one1s mind o~ thinking will spillover into another area of the mind where thinking about one's financestakes place. Whenthis happens, a person will not be as effective inhelping himself financially, by having the right mental attitude thatbreeds prosperity.

Then, what is the RIGHT MENTALATTITUDEfor attracting prosperity?It is an attitude of CONTINUALEXPECTANCY.A state of mind that isALWAYSOPENto new ideas, inspirations and intuition flowing from theHigher God-Mind within oneself. It is a state of mind that NEVER

accepts financial defeat. It is a state of mind that ALWAYSKNOWSthat God, as the manifesting Universe, is one's ONLYTRUESOURCEofsupply and prosperity. It is a mind that finds peace in theseuths, and through that peace, which makes the mind clear, new

i~iration, leading to greater prosperity.

PROSPERITYS A STATEOF SOUL

Together with being a state of mind, prosperity is also a state ofsou1 . When people medi tate, they are fi 11ed wi th the Presence ofthei r Higher God-Being. Thi sinner state of Qneness enforces theconsci ous stat_Lof mind and menta1 atti tude as one goes about the

d::aTiv business of livi.n.g._ KNOWING,hrough meditation, -that GODISTRULYWITHIN YOU, as the central core of your being and mind, pro-duces the greatest positive attitude of mind for achieving prosper-ity. You know that you, indeed, have the intelligence and wisdom ofthe ENTIRE UNIVERSEworki~g within and through you, as you attractand maintain prosperity. In this state of soul, 12!! are confident,knowing that you have a "MYSTICALMAGICI in the inner Presence of Godworking for your prosperity each and every day.

"CONSCIOUS PIRITUAl SELF-REAlIZATION FOR SUCCESSn

. Copyright (c), 1974, by Dr. Paul L. Masters

YOUR CONSCIOUS ATTITUDE CAN INVOKE MYSTICAL POWER

Your conscious mental attitude, the thoughts you think each day, hasthe power to invoke Mystical Power that can make success and happi-ness a real ity in your "'1He. Mystical Power i s tb~ UniversalPr~sence of Cosmic Intelligence, or God, which has Its Presen,~_~the c-enfercff---,:henuman-ma: That power whfch created" you iswithin you and can be reached in many ways, the most fundamental ofwhich is through a CONSCIOUS MENTALTTITUDEhat can call IT forth.

POSITIVE THINKING EXPRESSES - NE~TIVE THINKINGREPRESSES

The Mystical Power of your mind is always trying to release Itself

into expression in your life. In reality, It alone is the TRUE SELFof your identity. Whenyou think positively on a conscious level ofyour mind, the Mystical Power of your God-S~lf_~as an opportunity_tpe~I~-?s through you. Tms is because -the-NATURItof yoiir -GOd-t,f;d isPOSITIvE:--rrrli ng- your mind with Higher, Pos i ti ve Thought Energi esallows the opening for Higher Positive Universal Thought Energies toenter into your life. On the other hand, negative thought energies,filling the conscious mind, recede back into your personal subcon-scious and form an inner psychic wall or barrier there against theemergence of your Higher Thought Energies, or Mystical Power.

SPIRITUAlLY BASED POSITIVE THINKING

While maintaining a conscious positive mental attitude about every-thing in one's life is essential, it is most effective when positivethinking has a spiritual base.
