The Spiritual Practice of Meditation

“The general acceptance of the term meditation is contemplation or continuous thought. We mean to convey something more – the recognition of the Father/Mother/God within, the certainty of our Oneness with the Whole, the immediate availability of the Power and Wisdom resulting from this Oneness. Such communion with God brings harmony into our lives and affairs; establishes the Law of Health and Prosperity, and makes us a light to all who cross our pathway.”
Science of Mind Text Glossary

There are many styles of meditation. All religions seem to have a preferred form. We have the belief that there is no right or wrong way to meditate. Any form of meditation that gets us to that place of Oneness and the recognition of It will bring harmony into our lives and affairs, and will make us a light to all who cross our pathway.

One of the ways we suggest you might like to meditate is to choose one of the meditations of our founder, Ernest Holmes, which we have provided for your use. It is suggested that once you choose one, you then become quiet and composed. Perhaps find a place where you can be still. Then carefully read the meditation several times, phrase by phrase, endeavoring to realize the meaning of the words and trying to enter into the atmosphere of the thought. After having done this, meditate upon the words, following that meditation until you feel a sense of realization, or a sense that the words have become true for you.

Also, we invite you to participate in our meditation service on Sunday mornings at 1030am just preceding our Celebration of Life service at 11am. In addition you may enjoy the meditation group that meets on Monday evenings at 7pm where a 30 minute silent group meditation is conducted followed by open discussion centered around meditation in general.

Meditations offered by Ernest Holmes

Majestic Calm

The Inner Mind is still.
The Soul reflects the Most High.
The Spirit of man is God.
In the great calm of the All good,
I rest in peace and security.
My life is now reflecting the Perfect Whole.
I am Peace; I am calm;
I am security and complete satisfaction;
I am One with God and
I am filled with the Peace of God.

Love Gleams Through the Mist

Through the mist of human fear Love gleams
and points the way to Freedom.
I now decree and declare that I am free
from all sense of bondage.
I am made perfect and whole through knowledge
of the Real Life within me.
No illusions can enter my thought.
I know that there is One Power, and I know that this Power protects me from all harm.
As Perfect Love casts out all fear, so my fear flees
before the knowledge of Truth.
I am not afraid.

No Mistakes

There are no mistakes; none have ever been made and none ever will be made.
Nothing ever happened in the past to hinder or hurt.
There is no past, and I know, and can see, that there is
no belief in any past to rise against me.
I live in the Now, free from any yesterdays or tomorrows.
Now, I am Happy, Free and Complete.
There are no mistakes.

Love Dissolves All Fear

Greater than fear is Love.
Love dissolves all fear, cast out all doubt and sets the captive free.
Love, like the River of Life, flows through me and refreshes me with its eternal blessings.
Love cannot be afraid; It is fearless and strong, and is mighty in Its works.
It can accomplish all things through the Inner Light of that faith in the All Good,
which fills my very Being with a Powerful Presence.
Love cast out all fear.

My Affairs

My affairs are in the hands of Infinite Spirit
Who guides the planets in their course,
and Who causes the Sun to shine.
Divine Understanding attends me on the Way,
and I shall not be hindered in my work.
My affairs are controlled by Perfect Intelligence,
and cannot be hindered from expression.
I know that all that I do is done from the One Motive:
To express Life; and Life will be expressed
in and through me.
I cannot hinder It.
I am controlled by Infinite Intelligence.
