Remember that the future, the result of your habitual
thinking, is already in your mind except when you change it
through prayer. The future of a country, likewise, is in the
collective subconscious of the people of that nation. There is
nothing strange in the dream I had wherein I saw the headlines
of the New York newspapers long before the war began. The
war had already taken place in mind, and all the plans of attack
were already engraved on that great recording instrument, the
subconscious mind or collective unconscious of the universal
mind. Tomorrow’s events are in your subconscious mind, so
are next week’s and next month’s, and they may be seen by a
highly psychic or clairvoyant person.
No disaster or tragedy can happen to you if
pray. Nothing is predetermined or foreordained. Your mental
attitude, i.e. the way you think, feel, and believe determines
your destiny. You can, through scientific prayer which is
explained in a previous chapter, mold, fashion, and create your
own future. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
