The soul is like a light in the room that is the mind, for the soul perceives feeling, thought, memory, reason, and identity, and identifies itself with them. In reality it is aloof from them. But as the soul cannot see itself, it thinks, with the help of the ego, “I am sad,” or, “I am glad,” or, “I remember,” or, “I have forgotten.” In reality the soul does none of these things; they are all the workings of the mind, but it identifies itself with what it sees at this time.

Daily Meditation, January 18th
The soul produces the mind out of its own self, and yet the mind is constructed fully after the formation of the body. The experience the mind gains through the body as its vehicle becomes its knowledge, and it is knowledge that makes mind. What in the soul may be called vibration in the body becomes atom. The physical body becomes dependent in its experience and expression, thus making the soul dependent and limited. If the soul could see independently of the mind and body, it would see infinitely more.

Daily Meditation, January 17th
Man experiences heaven when conscious of his soul; he experiences the earth when conscious of his body. Man experiences that plane which is between heaven and earth when he is conscious of his mind.

Daily Meditation, January 16th
There is a knowledge that one can perceive with the senses, and there is a knowledge that one can perceive with the mind alone, and a knowledge that can be realized by the soul.

Daily Meditation, January 15th
You must ever bear in mind that the light and life that go out from you to the object are quite as important as that light that comes to you from the object. Thought is activity of the consciousness impressed by the external world.

Thoughts are beings. They are as much living beings as are we.

Daily Meditation, January 13th
Everything that is once felt, thought, or spoken is born as a living being, with a destiny, with a purpose to fulfill; and as it has birth, it necessarily has death. Therefore, besides living beings, feelings, words, thoughts, and the effects of one’s actions float in the air, rise up and come down, swing hither and thither, and seek their location in objects and in living beings.
