Daily meditation, Jan 31st: James Allen

If you ceaselessly think upon that which is pure and unselfish, you will surely become pure and unselfish.

JANUARY THIRTY - FIRST

IF you are daily praying for wisdom, for peace, for loftier purity, and a fuller realisation of Truth, and that for which you pray is still far from you, it means that you are praying for one tiling, whilst living out in thought and act another. If you will cease from such waywardness, taking your mind off those things, the selfish clinging to which debars you from the possession of the stainless realities for which you pray; if you will no longer ask God to grant you that which you do not deserve, or to bestow upon you that love and compassion which you refuse to bestow upon others, but will commence to think and act in the spirit of Truth, you will day by day be growing into those realities, so that ultimately you will become one with them.

Enter the path of Meditation, and let the supreme object of your meditation be Truth.
