5 Spiritual Economics Week 1 Wealthful there is a great need to establish ourselves in those things that are conducive to prosperity When we establish ourselves in the consciousness of God, [our awareness of] the whole Universe moves to flow into us with its abundance of life and substance

6 First Steps 1. Declare your independence from the belief that your personal welfare is completely tied to the economic fluctuations of the world out there. 2. Establish yourself in the unassailable conviction that the free flow of substance can only be dammed up from within and that no one can keep your good from you but you.

7 Shift Your Thinking Prosperity is a way of living and thinking, and not just money or things Poverty is a way of living and thinking, and not just a lack of money or things Realizing prosperity is to accept responsibility for your own thoughts, thus taking charge of your life.

10 The Allness God is not a being with qualities or attributes, but It is the good itself coming into expression as life, love, power, wisdom God is not loving, It is the allness of love God is not wise, It is the allness of wisdom God is not dispenser of divine substance, It is the allness of ever-present substance in which we live, move, and have being.

11 The Truth About Substance What is substance? Substance from the Latin substare which means stands under The divine idea underlying all things... Everywhere present, pervades all things, and inspires to action It underlies all manifestation and is the spiritual essence, the living energy out of which everything is made. Fillmore, Charles, The Revealing Word

12 The Truth About Substance The more conscious you become of the presence of the living substance the more it will manifest itself for you and the richer will be the common good of all. - Fillmore, Charles. Prosperity (p. 12) Faith is the spiritual capacity by which we may form and shape this ever-present basic element of Spirit-substance

13 The Truth About Substance A person who keeps conscious that the divine flow is ever centered within has faith that limitless substance will find expression through him or her in the form of creative ideas, ingenuity, the will to work, and a security of work opportunities. Get it into your consciousness that you live in substance as a fish lives in water.

14 Get Into the Flow God can do no more for you than God can do through you It cannot aid you except as it flows through your consciousness, through your faith, vision. The first step should be to raise consciousness Turn from the appearance of lack to the reality of affluence

15 Get Into the Flow 1. What ideas, inspirations, ingenuity are arising for your intention for the class? 2. Where is the appearance of lack in your intention? 3. How can you reframe/rise above the appearance of lack in your consciousness? 4. Write an affirmation for your intention.

16 Your Fortune Begins with You Things may happen around you, and things may happen to you, but the only things which really count are the things that happen in you You live in a world of your consciousness, which is the sum total of the thoughts of your mind You are a living magnet, constantly drawing to you the things, the people, and the circumstances which are in accord with your thoughts.

17 Center Your Awareness By your thinking, you are either adding to your good or you are taking away from it. It is simply a change of your consciousness in which you become synchronized with the ceaseless activity of divine love, of healing life, or of prospering substance. Uncover and release your own imprisoned splendor.

18 Release Your Inner Splendor The great ideal of spiritual seeking is to be in tune with the Infinite. Center your awareness on a deeper sense of life, and the demonstration will begin to make you If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with success unexpected in common hours. Henry Thoreau

19 Love Offering Divine love flowing as me, blesses and multiplies all that I have, all that I give, and all that I receive.
