Chapter XVII

The Life Power
What  is your Life Power?  Your Life Power lies in your consciousness and it is in the might of your thoughts.  Chapter XVII asks you to search for the source of your life power and to develop it, trust in it, wield it.  According to Billy, this is your “inescapable obligation” to make this aspect of yourself strong in order to endure life, to evolve and to live in this world.  Taking a more awakened, conscious responsibility for your life power makes all the difference between success in your life or failure in your life.  It is that important. 

If you don’t develop your life power, life can look like a raft on a stormy sea getting tossed about completely out of control and at the effect of outside forces.  I don’t want a life that looks like that. 

Billy suggests that you search for the source of your life power and develop it.

The Life Power lies in the consciousness.  And, where is the consciousness?

Remember the prayer you learned in Chapter 3—My Spirit Prayer? (A copy of that Prayer is on the Resource Page.) You learned that your consciousness is a tiny piece of Creation that is located in the middle of the brain at the Superior Colliculus.  It’s the size of a point of a needle—and it’s very powerful.  It might be a good idea to revisit the prayer and to say the prayer.  Read one line at a time and think about it, feel it and try to get a sense of your own consciousness that you are praying to.  This is the source of your life’s power.  Your power is also in your thoughts—or it’s the might of your thoughts.  Hopefully, you remember to use the might of your thoughts throughout the day and are working to achieve a state of neutral-positive-equalised thinking. “…Without this strength of life, there is no constancy in life and in evolution.”

If you want to take charge of your life, it is recommended that you determine where your power is, develop it, trust it, become strongly aware of its might. Learn how to wield your every thought, word, deed with the might of your thoughts.  Also, learn about neutral-positive-equalised thinking.

It may be true that you are powerful and you know it, yet, you may go in and out of this knowledge of power—so it’s inconsistent.  This material is asking you to increase your awareness of power in your life.  Take charge of your life since this is one of your fundamental duties to your Self. 

Recently, I was having a conscious daydream. In this dream, I saw myself as very powerful, content and balanced.  I could feel these states and it felt really good.  Then I became aware that the might of my power began spontaneously healing issues I didn’t even know I had! I was amazed by this.  This simple exercise increased my levels of power with very little effort.  I encourage you to try conscious dreaming, if you haven’t already.  Make it a daily habit. 

Billy Quotes
The source of life-power, which must be created by oneself, lies in the consciousness—that is to say, in its thoughts—which must be formed, tended and nurtured in such a way that they correspond to a progressive kind and wise, equipped with a Ziel for life, an intention, an endeavor, an ideal; a good, positive life-Ziel which is volitionally and imaginatively striven for to the point of realization by means of one’s striving for that which is higher and that which is evolutive, and by means of the might which is developed in the thoughts.

Every human being must learn to think and to use the might of the thoughts in order to cope with all things of life in a form which is really good or indeed neutral-positive-equalised, and to benefit from them.

Notes on The Life Power
  • Trust in your own potential and create it, so you can use your power.
  • Every person must be strong in real and virtuous neutral-positive-equalised form in order to be able to endure, to evolve and to live in the world. 
  • Learn to use the might of the thoughts to cope with all things in a balanced way and to benefit from them to further your evolution.  
  • It is absolutely necessary that you develop inner persistence because you use the power of your consciousness and your thoughts to further your education, for learning and the creation of knowledge and all this furthers your evolution.
  • Trust in the source of the life power, develop the power, and learn to depend on it.
  • The source of the life power lies in consciousness, in the thoughts.
  • Setting intentions, imaginings, wishes Ziele, and other efforts are more readily brought to fruition and actualized.
  • You can develop yourself in knowledge, truth and wisdom, reach higher consciousness-based wealth and material levels are reached as well as material wealth.
  • Once a person has developed these states, nothing can bring about a breakdown or push you off your path.

Life Without Power
  •  If the absolutely necessary strength is not present, then failure is pre-programmed down the line.
  • Tangled ideas confuse the thoughts and abruptly go from one extreme to the other.  This misdirection of thoughts triggers the emotions which lead to all kinds of problems.
  • Irrationality and a lack of virtue in highly emotional forms make it impossible to set a Ziel and to actualize it.  
  • Without strength of life, there is no constancy in life nor in evolution.
  • Without all kinds of real strength, the human being is so beaten about by the winds of life that they live in constant struggle for existence, which always threatens to crumble or shatter them.  This creates errors, mistakes, wrong actions, illnesses, pains and frustration accidents, losses and disappointments of all kinds.
  • Ausartung—destructive and annihilating, must be overcome for evolution to occur.
  •  The unrighteous person has created a devolutive attitude whereby they pander to that which is virtuelessness and unrighteous.
  • If there is no inner resistance, then the aggressive terrible things bowl the person over.

Excerpt from Might of the Thoughts
Everything is created on Creational-natural laws and recommendations, and therefore, so it the human being’s self-cognition and self-realization.  But, originating from these laws, it also emerges that the human being has been given an innate quality which consists of striving for that which is higher, in order to be evolutive in all respects, thus also in regard to himself/herself.  As a result of the fact, the cognizance arises that decisive factors must consequently be implanted in the human being’s consciousness, which enable him/her to volitionally develop consciousness-based powers, which, for example are expressed in perseverance and persistence or in other values. And precisely all these powers are greater and more enormous than the human being normally imagines.  However, one must recognize the corresponding factors and develop the powers which are then realised by means of the might of the thoughts.  And if the human being actually trains the consciousness-based-mental “muscles” then nothing is impossible for him/her anymore.  However, if he/she lets them slacken, then the whole human being becomes slack, which is called forth by the might of the thoughts which expands the slackness by means of ideas and gives full expression to it, because no neutral-positive-equalised ideal can be created from that.  Therefore, perseverance and persistence must be developed and activated in order to then set life-Ziele, which are pursued and fulfilled with perseverance and persistence, with the help of the might of the thoughts, which are directed at striving for those Ziele.
