A young man who attends my lectures had this experience.
His father died and apparently left no will. However, this man’s
sister told him that their father had confided to her that a will
had been executed which was fair to all. Every attempt to
locate the will failed.
Prior to sleep he talked to his deeper mind as follows:
“I now turn this request over to the subconscious mind. It
knows just where that will is, and reveals it to me.” Then he
condensed his request down to one word, “Answer,” repeating
it over and over again as a lullaby. He lulled himself to sleep
with the word, “Answer.”
The next morning this young man had an overpowering
hunch to go to a certain bank in Los Angeles where he found
a safe deposit vault registered in the name of his father, the
contents of which solved all his problems.
Your thought, as you go to sleep, arouses the powerful
latency which is within you. For example, let us suppose
you are wondering whether to sell your home, buy a certain
stock, sever partnership, move to New York or stay in Los
Angeles, dissolve the present contract or take a new one. Do
this: Sit quietly in your armchair or at the desk in your office.
Remember that there is a universal law of action and reaction.
The action is your thought. The reaction is the response
from your subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is reactive and reflexive; this
is its nature. It rebounds, rewards, and repays. It is the law
of correspondence. It responds by corresponding. As you
contemplate right action, you will automatically experience a
reaction or response in yourself which represents the guidance
or answer of your subconscious mind.
In seeking guidance, you simply think quietly about right
action which means that you are using the infinite intelligence
resident in the subconscious mind to the point where it begins
to use you. From there on, your course of action is directed
and controlled by the subjective wisdom within you which is
all-wise and omnipotent. Your decision will be right. There
will only be right action because you are under a subjective
compulsion to do the right thing. I use the word compulsion
because the law of the subconscious is compulsion.
