THE SUFFERING OF GOD - Talk of the Month

"I only offer an understanding of the exact nature of the suffering of God and the means to increase to the highest potential the possibility that you can actually participate in the alleviation of that suffering. That is all I offer, that is all I have ever offered and that is all I'm interested in offering. Any other form of service is an illusion. Any other form of transformation is short-lived. And any other law governing your work is completely subjective. This I hope to prove to you." -E.J. Gold, Talk of the Month #49

"Until you know that God is suffering - and by that I do not mean that God equals suffering, but that God does suffer - and that the suffering of the Absolute can be alleviated, until you've heard the means by which this can be achieved, you haven't even begun to hear about the Work." -E.J. Gold, Talk of the Month #49 (If you have this talk of the Month, read it. If you would like to read the entire talk of the month entitled "The Suffering of God", it is available from Gateways Books and Tapes at a special price of $10 plus shipping for workshop participants.

"An evolved human being is hungry to fulfill his obligation toward the Absolute. If we feel genuine pity for the Absolute, we may have the beginning of real conscience. Real conscience is the beginning of real work." -E.J. Gold, The Hidden Work, Chapter 7

THE METHOD OF PRAYER ABSOLUTE

"Prayer-Absolute requires a very definite sequence of contemplations-concentrations of attention intentionally aroused simultaneously in each of the lower centrums." -E.J. Gold, The Hidden Work, Chapter 11

WARMING OF THE SOUL

"Growth of the soul requires a form of human sacrifice, the exact nature of which has long since been distorted in mainstream thought.  Evolutionary barriers-flaws in the diamond-are ground down by abrasion." -E.J. Gold, The Human Biological Machine as a Transformational Apparatus, Chapter 17 (Within Chapter 17 is an exercise, read the chapter and do the exercise as many times as you are able to before the workshop, once counts. If you cannot find someone to read the exercise to you, record the exercise onto a tape and play it for yourself.)

OUT OF BODY

"Once we are able to bring the machine to stillness and silence, we will experience ourselves as definitely separate from the machine with a life apart from and far beyond the life of the machine." -E.J. Gold, The Human Biological Machine as a Transformational Apparatus, Chapter 18 (Within Chapter 18 is an exercise, read the chapter and do the exercise as many times as you are able to before the workshop, once counts. If you cannot find someone to read the exercise to you, record the exercise onto a tape and play it for yourself.)
