"As the first light of truth breaks through into our consciousness, it finds enmity within us. A man's enemies are those of his own household, those of his own consciousness, because as the Spirit, or the light of truth, breaks into our consciousness, It must necessarily wipe out of us our human ideas. Many of these constitute what we feel is our good, and we find ourselves in rebellion against the very spiritual life that would break through. If we consciously knew this, there would be no battle, or it would be brief. However, we do not understand what is taking place; we do not realize that we are warring against the higher spiritual ideals and instincts which are coming into our consciousness and breaking up the 'old man'." -- from Joel Goldsmith's "Consciousness Is What I Am" Return to the 2008 Weekly Passage Archive Page |
