HE APHORISMS THAT YOU HAVE JUST READ ARE SEEMINGLY UNRELATED, YET THERE IS A FINE CORD CONNECTING THEM. THEY MUST BE DIGESTED AND THEN RE-READ FOR YOU TO FIND THIS CORD AND FOLLOW IT AS IT LEADS YOU DEEP INTO YOUR OWN mind, freeing you from its bonds. We are free from what we understand, for it holds no mystery for us, no novelty, and is no longer intriguing. ¶There is a greater experience before you, beyond the mind which is yours to control, like the body and emotions which are yours to use as is your will. Even the will is yours to use in abundant or diminished amounts. Therefore, the real you is the consciousness deep within, above and around your tools for creative expression–namely, body, mind, emotions and will. In this consciousness of being ever conscious of being conscious, you must learn to live and from there radiate out from within the dynamic depths of your real Self. You will experience the power to watch your conscious mind at work, for, as pointed out previously, the conscious mind is but one-tenth of the whole mind; and as you progress on this journey of self-mastery, you will begin to learn about the subconscious mind, and how to use it and how it uses, helps or hinders you. The superconscious mind will become personified before you and will unfold its steady rays of all-seeing enlightenment through your subconscious, and directly through your conscious mind. You will learn to have inspiration at will, and to inspire others and to awaken and bring forth from them their inspiration and latent creative abilities. ¶Through the power of concentration, which will come easy to you when the body, mind and the emotions are dominated with your will, the doors to the subsuperconscious mind will swing wide, and you will view with interest findings that will remake your entire nature. As you progress with your study of self-mastery, the importance of the transmutation of the creative forces will become apparent to you subconsciously as well as consciously, the complete knowledge of their uses and abuses and the advantages of their transmutation into higher forms of creative expression. ¶Take this section now and turn back the pages and re-read with renewed interest the aphorisms and their explanations, impressing each on your subconscious mind so that upon the third reading your superconscious intuition can give you an even deeper realization than is possible to transcribe through the means of writing. Then proceed and study Section Two of Cognizantability, in which you will find the basic laws of transmutation. §
