Emmet Fox coined the term Mental Equivalence, explaining the
practical application of the Law of Substitution. Simply, we must take
responsibility for the thoughts we dwell upon, understanding that
whatever we entertain in our minds eye will be out pictured in our
lives. This teaching is the core of this generations rendering of this truth: The Secret. We place the order for
what appears in our lives by our habitual thinking. When we focus on
lack, failure, unhappiness and ill health, we attract them to us just as
surely as a moth is drawn to flame, affirming the truth of the Law of
Attraction. Does this mean we should simply adopt a Polly Anna attitude
and just ignore conditions, essentially fiddling while Rome burns,
affirming this and that, wistfully hoping for the best? Of course not.
The Mental Equivalent involves focusing on what we desire in life, over
writing the negative and destructive thoughts that lurk to hold us back,
not ignoring conditions but operating at increased levels of
consciousness. Living on the Spiritual Basis we practice the Presence
of God in all our activities, training ourselves to see His presence in
everything and everyone, rejecting the negative for we now hold the
ultimate truth of existence in our heart:
We are eternal beings, the
conditions and challenges we face today merely opportunities to
demonstrate His omnipotence.
Through prayer and
meditation, we have embraced a new basis of living, the basis of
trusting and relying on God. In so doing our vision clears, our
consciousness raised so we meet the inevitable challenges of living and
life with a sense of serenity that only comes from having turned our
will and lives over to the care of a Power Greater than Ourselves.
Focusing on and attracting what we desire in our lives by substituting
negative thoughts and thinking with positive God centric focus and
action, The Secret realized.
