Kindle Notes & Highlights
We should speak to the Divine Spirit with confidence and with a feeling of closeness, as to a father or a mother. Our relationship with God should be one of unconditional love.

If you make up your mind: “He is going to talk with me”; if you refuse to believe differently, regardless of how many years He has not answered you; if you go on trusting Him, one day He will respond.
am Ishwara (the Lord). I am Light.” The Voice was as murmuring clouds.
If your concentration goes still deeper, you too will hear the Voice of God.
If you can just once “break bread” with the Lord, break His silence, He will talk often with you. But in the beginning it is very difficult; it is not easy to become acquainted with God, because He wants to be sure that you really desire to know Him. He gives tests to see if the devotee wants Him or something else.

The whole creation was designed as a test for man. By our conduct in this world we disclose whether we want the Lord or His gifts. God will not tell you that you should desire Him above all else, because He wants your love to be freely given, without “prompting.” That is the whole secret in the game of this universe.
All the attributes that God has—consciousness, reason, will, feeling, love—man has too.
There is complete control of matter when one is advanced spiritually.
The Divine Spirit had a specific idea or pattern in mind when He created. He first externalized the whole universe, then created man.

If you want to know God, you must be like the naughty baby who cries till the mother comes.
In every aspect of creation I see Him. He is our Father; He is nearer than the nearest, dearer than the dearest, more real than anybody else. He is both unknowable and knowable.
You will be with me when everyone else is gone.”
He will first respond by giving you something that you have wanted, showing you that you are in His attention. But don’t be content with His gifts. Let Him know that you will never be satisfied until you have Him. Finally He will give you an answer. In a vision you may see a face of some saintly being, or you may hear a Divine Voice talking to you; and you will know that you are in communion with God.
Remember, when your heart-call is intense, when you accept no excuse, then He will come.
