put in actual practice in the daily experience.
There is a change in the thought of the world. This change is silently transpiring in our midst,
and is more important than any which the world has undergone since the downfall of
Paganism.
The present revolution in the opinions of all classes of men, the highest and most cultured of
men as well as those of the laboring class, stands unparalleled in the history of the world.
Science has of late mad such vast discoveries, has revealed such an infinity of resources,
has unveiled such enormous possibilities and such unsuspected forces, that scientific men
more and more hesitate to affirm certain theories as established and indubitable or to deny
certain other theories as absurd or impossible, and so a new civilization is being born'
customs, creeds, and cruelty are passing; vision, faith and service are taking their place. The
fetters of tradition are being melted off from humanity, and as the dross of materialism is
being consumed, thought is being liberated and truth is rising full orbed before an astonished
multitude.
The whole world is on the eve of a new consciousness, a new power and a new
consciousness, a new power and a new realization of the resources within the self. The last century saw the most magnificent material progress in history. The present century will
produce the greatest progress in mental and spiritual power.
Physical Science has resolved matter into molecules, molecules into atoms, atoms into
energy, and it has remained for Sir Ambrose Fleming, in an address before the Royal
Institution, to resolve this energy into mind. He says: "In its ultimate essence, energy may be
incomprehensible by us except as an exhibition of the direct operation of that which we call
Mind or Will."
Let us see what are the most powerful forces in Nature. In the mineral world everything is
solid and fixed. In the animal and vegetable kingdom it is in a state of flux, forever changing,
always being created and recreated. In the atmosphere we find heat, light and energy. Each
realm becomes finer and more spiritual as we pass from the visible to the invisible, from the
coarse to the fine, from the low potentiality to high potentiality. When we reach the invisible
we find energy in its purest and most volatile state.
And as the most powerful forces of Nature are the invisible forces, so we find that the most
powerful forces of man are his invisible forces, his spiritual force, and the only way in which
the spiritual force can manifest is through the process of thinking. Thinking is the only activity
which the spirit possesses, and thought is the only product of thinking.
Addition and subtraction are therefore spiritual transactions; reasoning is a spiritual process;
ideas are spiritual conceptions; questions are spiritual searchlights and logic, argument and
philosophy is spiritual machinery.
Every thought brings into action certain physical tissue, parts of the brain, nerve or muscle.
This produces an actual physical change in the construction of the tissue. therefore it is only
necessary to have a certain number of thoughts on a given subject in order to bring about a
complete change in the physical organization of a man.
This is the process by which failure is changed to success. Thoughts of courage, power,
inspiration, harmony, are substituted for thoughts of failure, despair, lack, limitation and
discord, and as these thoughts take root, the physical tissue is changed and the individual
sees life in a new light, old things have actually passed away, all things have become new,
he is born again, this time born of the spirit, life has a new meaning for him, he is
reconstructed and is filled with joy, confidence, hope, energy. He sees opportunities for
success to which he was heretofore blind. He recognizes possibilities which before had no
meaning for him. The thoughts of success with which he has been impregnated are radiated
to those around him, and they in turn help him onward and upward; he attract to him new and
successful associates, and this in turn changes his environment; so that by this simple
exercise of thought, a man changes not only himself, but his environment, circumstances and
conditions.
You will see, you must see, that we are at the dawn of a new day; that the possibilities are so
wonderful, so fascinating, so limitless as to be almost bewildering. A century ago any man
with and aeroplane or even a Gatling gun could have annihilated a whole army equipped with
the implements of warfare then in use. So it is at present. Any man with a knowledge of the
possibilities contained in the Master Key has an inconceivable advantage over the multitude.
INTRODUCTION - PART ONE
It is my privilege to enclose herewith Part One of The Master Key System. Would you bring
into your life more power, get the power consciousness, more health, get the health
consciousness, more happiness, get the happiness consciousness. Live the spirit of these
things until they become yours by right. It will then become impossible to keep them from
you. The things of the world are fluid to a power within man by which he rules them.
You need not acquire this power. You already have it. But you want to understand it; you
want to use it; you want to control it; you want to impregnate yourself with it, so that you can
go forward and carry the world before you.
Day by day as you go on and on, as you gain momentum, as your inspiration deepens, as
your plans crystallize, as you gain understanding, you will come to realize that this world is
no dead pile of stones and timber, but that it is a living thing! It is made up of the beating
hearts of humanity. It is a thing of life and beauty.
It is evident that it requires understanding to work with material of this description, but those
who come into this understanding, are inspired by a new light, a new force, they gain
confidence and greater power each day, they realize their hopes and their dreams come true,
life has a deeper, fuller, clearer meaning than before.
And, now, Part One....
PART ONE
1. That much gathers more is true on every plane of existence and that loss leads to greater
loss is equally true.
2. Mind is creative, and conditions, environment and all experiences in life are the result of
our habitual or predominant mental attitude.
3. The attitude of mind necessarily depends upon what we think. Therefore, the secret of all
power, all achievement and all possession depends upon our method of thinking.
4. This is true because we must "be" before we can "do," and we can "do" only to the extent
which we "are," and what we "are" depends upon what we "think."
5. We cannot express powers that we do not possess. The only way by which we may
secure possession of power is to become conscious of power, and we can never become
conscious of power until we learn that all power is from within.
6. There is a world within – a world of thought and feeling and power; of light and life and
beauty and, although invisible, its forces are mighty.
7. The world within is governed by mind. When we discover this world we shall find the
solution for every problem, the cause for every effect; and since the world within is subject to
our control, all laws of power and possession are also within our control.
8. The world without is a reflection of the world within. What appears without is what has
been found within. In the world within may be found infinite Wisdom, infinite Power, infinite
Supply of all that is necessary, waiting for unfoldment, development and expression. If we
recognize these potentialities in the world within they will take form in the world without.
9. Harmony in the world within will be reflected in the world without by harmonious
conditions, agreeable surroundings, the best of everything. It is the foundation of health and
a necessary essential to all greatness, all power, all attainment, all achievement and all
success.
10. Harmony in the world within means the ability to control our thoughts, and to determine
for ourselves how any experience is to affect us.
11. Harmony in the world within results in optimism and affluence; affluence within results in
affluence without.
12. The world without reflects the circumstances and the conditions of the consciousness
within.
13. If we find wisdom in the world within, we shall have the understanding to discern the
marvelous possibilities that are latent in this world within, and we shall be given the power to
make these possibilities manifest in the world without.
14. As we become conscious of the wisdom in the world within, we mentally take possession
of this wisdom, and by taking mental possession we come into actual possession of the
power and wisdom necessary to bring into manifestation the essentials necessary for our
most complete and harmonious development.
15. The world within is the practical world in which the men and women of power generate
courage, hope, enthusiasm, confidence, trust and faith, by which they are given the fine
intelligence to see the vision and the practical skill to make the vision real.
16. Life is an unfoldment, not accretion. What comes to us in the world without is what we
already possess in the world within.
17. All possession is based on consciousness. All gain is the result of an accumulative
consciousness. All loss is the result of a scattering consciousness.
18. Mental efficiency is contingent upon harmony; discord means confusion; therefore, he
who would acquire power must be in harmony with Natural Law.
19. We are related to the world without by the objective mind. The brain is the organ of this
mind and the cerebro-spinal system of nerves puts us in conscious communication with
every part of the body. This system of
nerves responds to every sensation of light, heat, odor, sound and taste.
20. When this mind thinks correctly, when it understands the truth, when the thoughts sent
through the cerebro-spinal nervous system to the body are constructive, these sensations
are pleasant, harmonious.
21. The result is that we build strength, vitality and all constructive forces into our body, but it
is through this same objective mind that all distress, sickness, lack, limitation and every form
of discord and inharmony is admitted to our lives. It is therefore through the objective mind,
by wrong thinking, that we are related to all destructive forces.
22. We are related to the world within by the subconscious mind. The solar plexus is the
organ of this mind; the sympathetic system of nerves presides over all subjective sensations,
such as joy, fear, love, emotion, respiration, imagination and all other subconscious
phenomena. It is through the subconscious that we are connected with the Universal Mind
and brought into relation with the Infinite constructive forces of the Universe.
23. It is the coordination of these two centers of our being, and the understanding of their
functions, which is the great secret of life. With this knowledge we can bring the objective and
subjective minds into conscious cooperation and thus coordinate the finite and the infinite.
Our future is entirely within our own control. It is not at the mercy of any capricious or
uncertain external power.
24. All agree that there is but one Principle or Consciousness pervading the entire Universe,
occupying all space, and being essentially the same in kind at every point of its presence. It
is all powerful, all wisdom and always present. All thoughts and things are within Itself. It is all
in all.
25. There is but one consciousness in the universe able to think; and when it thinks, its
thoughts become objective things to it. As
