PREFACE
I have worked with Babaji for years in my spiritual

awakening process. He is a kind, loving, and very gentle
Master. My only knowledge of Babaji comes from my
own inner experience of him. I don't know if he has a
physical body now, or ever has had one. It really doesn't
matter.
As each of us is destined to realize, we are all omni-
present and omniscient. Only our sleeping awareness
shuts off that reality for the time being. For the enlight-
ened, the great teachers, being all-knowing and every-
where present are normal and living truths. Babaji is
such an enlightened soul.
He came to me because I asked for the gentle
guiding light of a Master. Through his soft prodding, I
have gradually become more aware of my Self. That
unfoldment continues.
One of the highlights of my life has been to channel
this marvelous course from the heart of Babaji. The
knowledge is valid. I have experienced the predicted
results in every lesson. The techniques have been a giant
step in my own process of Self-realization.
Babaji's course impresses me most of all because of its
simplicity. It's simple. It's easy. Very gently the course
gradually leads you to complete trust and awareness of
your Higher Self. It uses the age-old proven method of
making a concept simple along with loving repetition.

UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI
There is no doubt in my mind that this course can be

understood successfully by anyone. Naturally, there is a
selection process. Only those of you ready for it are in-
terested. That, of course, includes anyone reading this
preface. Let that alone be your signal. You're ready for
the experience of being Unified with your Higher Self.
From all of us so fortunate to receive this course, our
heartfelt love and thanks to you, Babaji. We know you
are with us through each of these lessons.

Unified
Never before in known human history has a course

like this been available. That is not to say paths for
enlightenment weren't available. They were, and
thousands still are. In fact the opportunity for unfolding
full human potential has never been greater.
Millions of people, scores of groups, and hundreds of
enlightened Masters are guiding the earth into a new age
—an age of heaven on earth. It is precisely this beehive
of spiritual activity that makes this course possible.
Before now the seeker had to be guided by an
enlightened soul that he could identify. The way out of
darkness was too dark, too confusing. It took the helpful
hand of someone who had traveled the course, who
knew the way.
The last fifty years of spiritual rebirth on this planet
have brought new energies and new awareness for
everyone. The first pioneers always blaze a trail; so the
going is easier for those who follow. These pioneers of
the spiritual movements have paved the way for the
possibility of this course and many other such paths.
The uniqueness of this course is that it marks a mile-
stone for the seekers. Instead of a guru, the guide is your
own Self. Systematically this course teaches you to be in
touch with your Self to be your own teacher. The
lectures in this course come mainly from your Self.
Within you
1
are all answers and all the help you need to gain full en-
lightenment.
There are almost no requirements for this course.
Any human with the desire for Self-realization and
mastery of life can easily complete it. Some diligence
and tenacity is helpful, but the daily requirements are
few. There are fewer than five pages to read each week,
but these few are to be read, reread, and clearly
understood. Each day only one or two fifteen-minute
periods need be set aside. Everything else fits into your
normal living activity.
No change in lifestyle is required or even desired. If
you're presently on a spiritual path, don't change your
practices. Continue with your meditations, your
postures, your chants, your prayers, your ceremonies, or
whatever you are doing. This course will supplement
that and even bring a new dimension of meaning to it.
There is only one strong suggestion. Avoid any use
of "recreational" drugs. While these drugs may sharpen
some aspects of your perception, they dull other aspects.
For this course to bring the results you want, you need
the full range of your perception. The importance of
maintaining a clear, natural nervous system can't be
overemphasized. Don't alter your nervous system with
any drugs unless your doctor prescribes them.
This course is to be completed in about six months.
Each lesson lasts one week. Do not cut that week short.
On the other hand, if you feel a few extra days on a les-
son would be helpful, take extra time. There is plenty of
time in your life to finish this course. Just proceed dili-
gently, easily, and with confidence at each step.
It is only natural to want to be finished before you start.
The urge to read this short lesson guide is tempting, as if
somehow the experience will be yours for just the
2
Unified
reading. That won't work. Reading this guide will not

bring you Self-realization. In fact, there is nothing you
can just read to gain enlightenment. For that reason the
actual knowledge written out in this instruction guide is
minimal. Knowledge, however, is maximal from the ex-
perience of your own Self. So take each lesson one at a
time. Ignore what follows until you're ready to go on.
The request not to read the lessons ahead of time
may be too much for some curious natures. For that
reason, here's a quick outline of what to expect.
There are three sections, each seven weeks long.
After each section there is a one-week review lesson.
The first section is devoted to realizing the conscious
communication you have with your Higher Self. You de-
velop a technique with safeguards for communicating
with your Higher Self. By the end of the first section you
feel comfortable with the practice and have started to
receive guidance for your life.
The second section strengthens your tools for com-
municating with your Higher Self. You isolate your
highest and wisest desires. Then, using a precise
formula, you start the mechanics to manifest those
desires. By the end of this section the mechanics of
manifestation are quite clear and easy.
The third section expands your tools of guidance.
You analyze your dreams. You learn written
communication with your Higher Self and the great
teaching Masters. In this last section you also expand
your awareness and connection with everyone else and
everything in creation. That becomes a concrete
experience.
It is important to remember that this course is Self-
taught. Your own Higher Self is your teacher. You are
not someone else's pupil. All the tools you need for
enlight-
3
enment are known by you now. All this course promises

to do is to put you clearly in tune with your Higher Self
for its teaching and guidance.
Such an approach to enlightenment could never have
been totally successful for everyone before now. There
was too much darkness on earth. Only a few fortunate
souls have found the way successfully without an earthly
brother's helping hand. Now the rays of light on earth are
so strong that you can find your own way. Just locate
your Self, learn how to communicate, and go. Go on the
path to peace, to love, to abundance, to joy, to success,
and to heaven on earth. Truly, heaven is within. This
course gives you the key.
Because this is a Self-taught course, religions are not
to be built up around it. No person can claim to help you
learn it, although you can certainly get together with
your friends who are also taking the course to discuss
experiences. You are in charge. This course gives you
the tools to regain control of your own life. No one can
now take your own place in your own life.

PART I
Developing a Technique for
Conscious Communication
with Your Higher Self
FIRST WEEK
Centering in the Heart
You are more beautiful than you have ever imagined.

You are a flower of heaven in full bloom. Yet for some
reason which isn't important—certainly not worth ex-
ploring—you don't understand your divinity.
Oh, yes: on the surface we give lip service to what
we are. You have been told, you repeat, and you believe
you are made in the image of God. And it is comfortable
and easy to say: / am made in the image of God.
This step-by-step guide merely allows you to ex-
perience and know that image. Who are you? What are
your qualities? What is the life of someone made in the
image of God? The answers to these questions are the
experiences of this course.
Notice the structure of that divine Truth: I am made
in the image of God. / am. That is present tense. It
doesn't say I was once in the image of God. No. It says I
am now in the image of God.
/ am made. Again, it says neither you are being
made, nor that you will be made. It says God created you
in His image. The act is completed. You are completely
made. You are completely made in the image of God
now.
Nothing you can do will ever change, or has ever
changed, this basic Truth. Nothing. That is the key to this
7
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / First Week
course. It teaches you nothing. For you are now already

everything. It helps you to evolve nowhere. For you are
now already perfectly evolved. It does, however, make a
slight correction in your thinking. It brings to you the
experience of your true Self.
One of the reasons you have lost the meaning of
being made in God's image is that you are using a very
small part of what God made. Why use only one candle
in the darkness when you have floodlights? Your
beautiful, incredible body is just the tip of the iceberg—
less than a tip. Your sight, touch, hearing, taste, and
smell reveal only the smallest part of your creation.
Beyond what you think you are is your true Self—
alive, vibrating in love, and the source of your happiness
and your abundance. It is the Self that you will easily
and systematically get to know again. And as you realize
who you are, your true qualities become Self-evident.
You might think of them coming to the surface, or being
awakened, even though they are neither asleep nor
hidden.
What are those qualities? Well, just think for a few
minutes of the qualities you would give God. Now,
without modesty, or humility, or bashfulness, give those
qualities to your Self. They are yours. God gave you the
same qualities He has Himself. You are made in His
image.
God is light—the light of the world. So you are
light— light that brightens the darkest corner. That is
your heritage.
God is love. You are love. In fact, everything in all
of creation is made of love. God's love permeates every-
8
Centering in the Heart
thing. That same love is your love. Think of the impli-

cations. They are far-reaching.
God is happiness, joy, and bliss. You are happiness.
You are joy. You are bliss. That is your nature. Nothing
less.
God is perfect. Of course. That's also obvious. But
you? Perfect? Now isn't that going too far? Not one iota.
You are that same perfection, and that includes perfect
health, perfect thoughts, perfect action, perfect every-
thing. You simply need to be functioning as one perfect
whole Self.
God is peace and gentleness. You are peace—peace
of mind without turmoil and without attacks. You are
just the simple innocence of enjoying life as it is created.
God is abundance. Everything is one with God. That
same abundance is one with you. All the forces of nature
are yours, to satisfy all desires and needs. Of course, the
key is to be operating from your whole Self, with love,
joy, light, peace, and all the other qualities of God.
These are just a sampling of God's qualities. You can
surely multiply this list tenfold. In each instance, His
qualities are yours. When you are Unified, you operate
with all His qualities.
This first lesson of being Unified is designed to
easily tell your mind that you desire to unify with your
whole Self, as God created you, in His image.
Each day, as early as practical, read this chapter.
Read it slowly, understanding each sentence before
going to the next. Then for five or ten minutes, sit
comfortably with your eyes closed. Allow your attention
to center in your heart and feel God's love—your love—
pulsating there.
9
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / First Week
Don't fight thoughts, just let them bubble on the surface.

If your mind wanders away from your heart, gently lead
it back. This exercise is simply to enjoy, and be sure to
do it every day this week.
Throughout the day, whenever you think about it, en-
joy the thought GOD is love, so I am love. You may find
the love-feeling pulsating in your heart when you think
that thought. Enjoy that feeling of love as your
inheritance.
You have one last exercise this week. After you've
gone to bed and said the last goodnights to your loved
ones, lie quietly with the attention once again in your
heart. This time think of some of the qualities of God.
For each quality, recognize that you also have that
quality, even if it seems preposterous to you now. Then
quietly go to sleep with thoughts of God's and your
qualities on your mind.
10
SECOND WEEK
Recognizing Your Higher Self's Name
You have experienced love in your heart—the gentle

pulsation of creation in your heart. It is in the heart that
we are connected to all of creation. And it is the love
you feel that is the connector.
That love is far more than a connector, though. For
love is the common denominator of everything and
everyone. Science will one day find that common
denominator which Einstein called the Unified field. It is
love—God's love—which is that Unified field.
When you sat quietly last week and allowed your at-
tention to be with your heart, you experienced love—
God's love, your love, everyone's love. You experienced
the substance from which the entire creation is made.
You experienced the entire creation.
It is this simple experience that now leads you to the
profound. At least, from your vantage point now, it is
profound. However, as your experience and the
knowledge unfold, it won't seem profound at all. It will
be simple and natural, easy and unflashy. Yet if you
knew now what you will experience in this course, it
would seem profound.
In the first lesson you learned that your beautiful phys-
ical body is just a small portion of your Self. The rest of
11
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Second Week
your Self is made of the love you experienced, as is all

of creation. Since you can now feel that love, you can
use it as a connection to the rest of your Self. That is
what you begin to do this week.
For now it might be easier to differentiate between
the terms lower self and Higher Self. That is, of course,
inaccurate. We are one Self. Furthermore, our one Self is
one with everything and everyone else—we are all that
same love. We are all one. We are all connected.
That is a difficult concept to understand so long as
you perceive only your physical body. You do seem
separated, and you experience separation. As long as you
know your Higher Self and lower self are false terms,
we'll use them. They'll help you in this stage of your
unfoldment.
Your Higher Self has never lost touch with its God
qualities, unlike your lower self. Your Higher Self
knows everything, it is everywhere present, it is love
personified, and it longs to reunite your whole being. It
constantly feeds thoughts to you about your nature. It
nudges you into more perfect right action. It is always
there as your servant to lead you to a life of love,
abundance, and safety.
You experience the voice of your Higher Self all the
time. Unfortunately, your own false fears and imagina-
tions drown it out. Now you will begin to isolate that
voice. Gradually it will get louder. Gradually you will
rely on its wisdom because it is the source of perfect
knowledge for you. It knows everything and has only
one goal: that you live a happy, fulfilled, and abundant
life.
Your Higher Self has a name. This week you learn
that name. As with last week, sit quietly for five to ten
minutes with your attention focused in the heart. Feel the
12
Recognizing Your Higher Self's Name
love. Feel the pulsations. Particularly, feel that love

energy radiate out from your heart. It will permeate
every cell in your body. It will saturate everything
around you. Be with that feeling. If thoughts come, let
them bubble up. Don't resist them. Just feel the happy,
joyful, blissful love.
While you're enjoying the feeling of love, say these
words: My beautiful Higher Self, please give me my
name now.
The name will be revealed to you. It may be a name
you're familiar with, such as John, Mary, or Joshua. Or it
may be an unfamiliar group of syllables, such as Ami,
Anasia, Konar, or Samatri. And don't resist a name you
identify with a Master, such as Jesus, Buddha, Babaji, or
Confucius.
The name appears to you as a persistent thought.
You might hear it audibly. You might see its letters. It
might just be a comfortable thought. When it comes,
write it down. Then in your next quiet period, notice if
the same name comes to you. By the end of the week,
the name of your Higher Self will be quite familiar to
you.
Now, it is perfectly natural for you to doubt at this
stage. Of course, don't feel you need to doubt; but if you
are uncertain, don't worry about it. Just continue to do
these exercises. Soon, those doubts will melt away, and
you won't even remember them.
The quiet period can be up to fifteen minutes this
week if you are enjoying the feeling of love. If the
feeling of love goes away and you feel edgy or anxious,
lie down a few minutes.
In addition to your regular quiet period of love each
day, read this week's text slowly, understanding each
sentence.
13
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Second Week
Throughout the day this week, whenever you think

about it, say / am love, and I send love to (name) . You can
send love to another person, a plant, a dog, a situation, or
anything. You can send it a few feet, or across the
continent. Feel the love go from your heart to wherever
you're sending it. Know that this is not just a mental
exercise. You are actually transmitting love energy—
energy that definitely dissolves problems.
This week during the quiet moments before going to
sleep, give a few words of thanks to your Higher Self for
its guidance and love. Then transmit your love energy
wherever you choose. Go to sleep transmitting love.
14
THIRD WEEK
Communicating with Safeguards
Now you have experienced your Higher Self on an

intimate level. You have communicated consciously.
For years we can be unaware of a clock ticking in a
room. Then suddenly we hear it. It is so loud we can't
imagine we never heard it. That is now your experience
with your Higher Self. It has always been a part of you
—helping, directing, guiding, nudging, and prodding.
Yet you did not hear it. Now you do. You know that
voice is there. All you need do now is to focus attention.
Soon you will start focusing your attention on its
messages, but first you must develop some safeguards.
The first safeguard deals with Uninvited Influences.
Since we are all connected, it is possible for other people
to influence your thoughts. These people may or may not
be living in the physical world we know. They may be
part of the vast spiritual world around us we don't yet
perceive. Nevertheless they are there, and some of them
invade our aura, our field of energy, and influence our
thoughts. The thoughts these uninvited influences feed
us can be helpful or harmful, right or wrong, negative or
positive, fearful or cheerful, and even ingenious. You
can never be sure if they are appropriate. Only the
thoughts that come from your Higher Self are reliable.
15
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Third Week
Unfortunately, most of us can't tell the difference yet

between the thoughts of the uninvited influences and our
Higher Self.
Since we are masters of our own selves, the remedy
is quite easy. You simply close your aura to all except
your Higher Self. This is the first important lesson this
week. Whenever you go into crowds of people, say: /
close my aura to all except my Higher Self. Say it also
whenever you feel you are in a negative atmosphere,
such as around sickness, an accident, or a troubled
person. This week you can't say the words to close your
aura too often. After this week's practice, the times when
you need to close your aura will be clear. It will be
almost second nature.
In spite of all your precautions, some uninvited in-
fluences can get into your aura and feel quite at home.
These are usually people who have died and who are
confused, troubled, and hurting. Their awareness of their
true nature is so distorted, they have refused the help
gladly waiting at their side. When you have such an
uninvited influence in your aura, you can feel moody,
irritable, exhausted, pained, angry, or any other emotion
and feeling that is inappropriate.
These influences have come and gone most of your
life. They have influenced your thinking and your
actions for ages. Well, those influences are now going to
stop. They must stop if you are to experience your
Higher Self clearly. They must stop if your new life of
happiness and abundance is to flow easily and
effortlessly.
To clear your aura of any uninvited influences, you
begin each of the daily quiet periods from now on with a
few simple words. These words are to be memorized. At
first you can read the words, but be able to say their sub-
stance from memory by the end of the week. The words
are:
16
Communicating with Safeguards
To all uninvited influences in my aura, I send love

and light.
You are each whole and healed.
You are each created as love and light, and you are
still love and light.
You each feel no pain now, and you are not afraid.
You each have a perfect place to go, and I ask my
Higher Self, (name) , to take you there now.
Each of you, go in peace.
There is another safeguard to learn this week. That

safeguard will be given to you by your Higher Self in the
form of some signal you can recognize. This signal must
be with you during your quiet periods. The signal is your
safeguard that you are indeed communicating with your
Higher Self.
After you have cleared your aura of any uninvited in-
fluences and have settled down into your heart and love,
think this:
My dear Higher Self, (name) . please give me your sig-
nal now.
Wait for some physical signal that is obvious. It can
be a movement of the head, or of the entire upper body,
or of the fingers, arm, or leg. Therefore it is important to
be sitting so that the entire body is free to move. It might
even be a movement you're used to, such as fluttering
eyelids. Or it could be a sensation someplace, like a
gentle caress, or heat, or tingling. Or it could be a
vision—either a clear picture or simply light. Or it could
be something you hear. There are only two certainties:
the signal will be pleasant, and the signal must be given
to you when you ask for it.
17
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Third Week
That signal is very important. It is your signal that

you are Unified with your Higher Self and that you are
actually communicating with the Higher Self and not
with an uninvited influence.
Devote your quiet times this week to discovering the
signal and then simply enjoying the experience of love
along with the signal. Feel comfortable with the signal
and notice how it comes quite easily once you've settled
into quietness.
This week when you go to bed, practice the words to
clear your aura of uninvited influences. Then three of the
nights this week unify yourself with God. That is, think
of whatever qualities of God come to you and give your-
self those qualities as well: God is love, and so am I
love, because I am made in his image, etc.
The balance of the four nights, continue the exercise
of last week. Give a few words of thanks to your Higher
Self for its guidance and love. Then transmit your love
energy to whomever you choose.
During the day this week you can continue to send
love to anyone or anything whenever it occurs to you.
This is a practice you want to develop, for as you give so
shall you receive. Give love out in your thoughts. Don't
be surprised when it comes back to you in the least
expected way.
18
FOURTH WEEK
Speaking Out Universal Truth
This week you continue to develop the bond with

your Higher Self. You are going to become very much
aware of the messages it has for you.
Remember this week that you are perfect and made
in the image of God. You have been practicing that
concept, and by now you feel quite comfortable with it.
No longer do you feel pompous or conceited when you
recognize you are perfect, or are love, or are all-
knowing.
All-knowing? Yes. You are all-knowing intelligence.
Deep within you is the seed of everything there is to
know about everything in creation: all the arts, all the
sciences, all the past, all the future. You already have all
information by virtue of your link to the one great
cosmic computer.
Of course, your own little lower self doesn't know
everything. It hardly knows anything and for years has
been apparent proof that to err is human. Well, it isn't
human to err. To know everything and to act on the basis
of complete knowledge is human. However, in order to
reap the fruit of all knowledge, you must be operating as
a whole human, as God created you, in his image.
Gone are the days of mistakes. There is simply no
excuse for them any longer. Starting today you are going
19
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Fourth Week
to begin tapping into the knowledge connected to the

other part of you—your Higher Self.
It is important that you be alone for your daily quiet
periods from now on and that you not be disturbed. Re-
move the animals from your room. Unplug the phone.
Know the children are cared for. Then sit comfortably so
that you can get a clear signal from your Higher Self.
Close your eyes and center into your heart. Feel the love
and clear away any uninvited influences by repeating
quietly aloud the substance of the words you memorized
last week.
Also quietly and aloud, unify with God in the same
way you did the last couple of weeks before going to
sleep. Think of some of the qualities of God and claim
them for yourself: God is all-knowing intelligence, and
so am I all-knowing intelligence because I am made in
the image of God, etc. Feel each quality as your own.
Know it to be true. Now you are Unified, and you are
ready to receive today's message from your Higher Self.
Withdraw actively. That is, be alert and aware. Don't
go into a trance. Just keep your attention with that now-
familiar love in your heart. Listen. Listen to your
thoughts, and be aware of the continuing signal from
your Higher Self.
Quietly speak out those thoughts. Speaking out loud
is, of course, unnecessary, but for now it is important. It
helps you to speak out the thoughts given to you by your
Higher Self, while in the background is a steady murmur
of an active mind that doesn't want to be left out. You
will know the difference. You'll know what is the chatter
in the background and what is the Truth being fed to
20
Speaking Out Universal Truth
you by your Higher Self. So speak out the Truth. You'll

find it easy.
Don't be bashful. No one else is listening. This is
your private visit with your own Self. It is your
knowledge you're speaking out. It is Truth that you will
recognize as relevant now.
Don't doubt. You can't possibly say, "But I'm not
getting something," for when you do, you'll have the
thought "Oh yes I am." That is your Higher Self. Only an
unconscious person won't be able to do this, and you're
not unconscious.
This week you will receive only statements of
general Truth from your Higher Self. These will be
statements of universal Truth, applicable for everyone at
any time or place. However, they will be Truth that you
need to know and use now. For your Higher Self guides
you and teaches you these universal laws so that you can
put them to use for your happiness and abundance.
This means that you will be getting no prophecy this
week, no doom or gloom, no hints on the stock market,
and no direction to get a divorce or propose marriage or
quit your job. If you receive those kinds of thoughts,
they are not from your Higher Self. They are simply
background chatter.
The important part of this week's exercise is to
isolate that channel of thought from your Higher Self.
That is why the channel will have only the general
statements of Truth. That way you will recognize the
"station." There is a whole lifetime ahead for more
specific guidance, but it won't come this week.
Continue the communication with your Higher Self un-

be enough for each day's period. When you have
finished, thank your Higher Self. Then close your
aura to all except your Higher Self. It is important
after each quiet period to close your aura against all
uninvited influences.
During the day think about the Truth statements
you received from your Higher Self. Think about
how the statements are relevant to what you are
doing, whatever it is. Think about any changes in
attitude the statements may be calling for. Think
about any changes in your actions that may be
needed. There is some reason why your
communication came. Think about what that is.
This week, continue to close your aura to all
except your Higher Self whenever you're in a crowd
or exposed to any negativity. In addition, if you
think because of your mood, anger, fears, or
negativity that there may be an uninvited influence
in your aura, clear it with the words you memorized
last week. You may now find that this is more
necessary than you think. Your Higher Self will give
you the strong thought that it is necessary, even
though you'll have other thoughts that may resist.
You are also to continue to send love from your
heart to whoever and whatever occurs to you. Feel
the love pulsate from you to your recipient.
This week also continue alternating between the
same two exercises just before going to sleep that
you had last week: (1) unify with God, and (2)
transmit love energy.

FIFTH WEEK
Dealing with Uninvited Influences
You cannot overemphasize the importance now of

keeping yourself clear of uninvited influences. This
week you examine these influences a little further and
you develop another tool to deal with them.
Throughout your life you have experienced these in-
fluences. In your own life they account for those numer-
ous times you "weren't yourself." You really weren't
totally yourself. They also explain some of the periodic
irrational behavior of your friends and family. Later in
this course you will learn how to help others under unin-
vited influences. This week, however, you're going to
continue the focus on yourself.
Have you ever awakened after a full night's rest ex-
hausted? Was it an effort to smile? Did the least little
provocation set you off? Chances are this was an unin-
vited influence.
Have you experienced a sudden change in mood
from ease and happiness to irritability and impatience?
At the time, you felt justified in your nastiness and
negativity, but in retrospect it seemed uncalled-for.
Chances are this was an uninvited influence.
Have you ever blown up at a loved one, only to feel
terribly sorry later? Chances are this was an uninvited
influence.
23
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Fifth Week
Have you ever been in a mood of fear, without being

able to pinpoint it? Or maybe the fear was concrete but
of something you weren't usually afraid of? Chances are
this was an uninvited influence.
Have you ever fantasized dangerous or foolish action
that you know you would never do in your right mind?
Chances are this was an uninvited influence.
Not all of your fears, irrational behavior, weird
thoughts, bursts of anger, and periods of exhaustion are
caused by uninvited influences. They can also be your
own stress, your own imaginations in illusion. It can be
your own imperfect thinking that needs to be healed.
However, far too often it is the stress and fearful
thoughts of others that you are allowing to influence
you.
Note the word allowing. Nothing can influence you
without your express or tacit approval. Nothing. Out of
ignorance you have allowed influences in your life—
influences that have made you miserable. Even more
significant, they have built the barrier higher and
stronger between you and your Higher Self.
We must not look upon these uninvited influences
with scorn. No. They are loving creations of God, just as
you are. They are just frightened and confused by an
illusion they've made for themselves. That is not
different (except in degree) from the illusion you have
built separating yourself from your Self. It is entirely
possible that you, too, have been an uninvited influence
for someone.
In another lifetime if you died in confusion or fear
and refused help to direct you to your next perfect place,
you could have hung around and influenced others with
your fear and negativity. Think of any uninvited
influence with love, as you would want to be thought of
if you were
24
caught in that situation. Send love while you say the

healing words.
This week you will continue to begin your quiet
periods by healing any uninvited influences, as you did
last week. Then close your aura to all except your Higher
Self. Unify with God by thinking of some of God's qual-
ities and claiming them for yourself. Start your commu-
nication with your Higher Self when you have received
its signal. When that communication is over, you say
these words: Now please give me my signal for uninvited
influences. Sit comfortably, relaxed, open, and receptive.
Wait for some physical signal you will feel or notice in
your body.
This is a signal your Higher Self will give you when
you are under an uninvited influence. It is usually un-
pleasant, such as a slight pain someplace, or slight
nausea, or slight dizziness, or uncomfortable sound or
vision. However, it is not necessary that it be unpleasant.
It can be a twitch someplace on the body, a definite
movement, a warm or cold feeling someplace, or a
numbness. As with the signal from your Higher Self, this
uninvited-influence signal can be anything that catches
your attention. So sit back and wait for it.
When the signal comes, repeat the words with love
that you memorized two weeks ago to clear your aura of
the influence. The signal will go away. If it doesn't, that
means there is another uninvited influence, so repeat the
words with love.
The thoughts of the uninvited influences are forms of
energy—bubbles of negativity, fear, worry, concern, or
anger. These bubbles may continue even after the unin-
vited influence is healed. Therefore from now on after
25
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Fifth Week
you have healed the influence, say: I send love and light
to any thought forms around me. After all, these nega-
tive thought forms really are feeding us problems. These
healing words are also to be repeated in crowds when
you close your aura.
This is your exercise for each quiet period this week.
Ask for your uninvited-influence signal. Then get rid of
the signal by reciting your memorized words to heal the
influence.
Just because you now have a signal for uninvited in-
fluences doesn't mean you can let your guard down. The
signal will only come to you when you normally
wouldn't know about the influence. So continue with
your practice of repeating the formula when you feel you
need to. Usually the need arises with the strong thought
"I have an uninvited influence." But it can simply be the
symptoms—exhaustion, fear, anger, irritability, etc.
For most people the concept of these uninvited in-
fluences is a very foreign notion. It smacks of ghost sto-
ries, the supernatural, witches, goblins, and sorcery. If
the concept bothers you, keep an open mind and do this
part of these lessons mechanically. When your life
changes, when your heart refills with love, and when
you feel a burden lifted with the healing of each
uninvited influence, those preconceived notions will
vanish. To rid yourself of these influences is a giant step
in being and staying Unified.
In your activity this week continue to develop the
habit of closing your aura to all except your Higher Self.
Continue to send love from your heart wherever you go,
whenever you think about it, to anyone or anything.
26
When you go to bed, continue to alternate the

practice of sending love and unifying with God's
qualities. Continue to give thanks to your Higher Self for
its communication of Truth to you. Thank your Higher
Self for giving you the uninvited-influence signal and for
helping to keep your aura clear.
It may seem that you are taking on more and more
and more. Very soon these practices will be so much a
part of your life that nothing is being done at all. They
will be as natural as drinking, eating, or sleeping.
27
SIXTH WEEK
Forgiving with Truth
Life is for receiving love. Everything in creation is

made of love. That is the Unified field of Einstein. It is
the sweet syrup God used to brew everything we ever
have or ever will perceive. Love is everything. And we
are made to taste that syrup. Consequently, everything
and everyone in creation can give us that sweet taste of
love. That is what our life is for—to receive creation's
love.
That means you are love. You not only receive love
from everyone and everything, but you also give that
same love. For everyone you meet you give the sweet
taste of love. Everything you meet you also give that
love. So life is not just for receiving love, it is also for
giving love to everyone and everything.
This little concept spells out the misunderstood
concept of forgiving. Life is for giving love. For giving.
For giving love. That is forgiveness. Nothing else.
When you hold grudges, you are choosing to withhold
that sweet taste of love you can give. Get rid of the
grudge and your life is once again for giving love.
Grudges are really easy to release when you once
realize what a silly illusion they are. You hold grudges
because you imagine someone has hurt you. You think
28
you've been attacked, compromised, trespassed, and in

some way made a lesser person. Or you imagine some-
one has taken something from you. Such folly! You are
made in the image of God. You are perfection and noth-
ing, no one, can alter that. You are abundance; every-
thing is yours, and all you need comes to you when you
open yourself to it. You are truly a creator. You create
whatever you experience. If you imagine that you have
been hurt by anyone, it is only because that is what you,
as creator, invited.
This is a very difficult concept to grasp. All of so-
called reality seems to refute that Truth. Your own
experience seems to prove the world is full of mean
people hurting innocent people. In reality that is
impossible. You are solely responsible for your own
experiences. You decide what your experiences are to
be, and that is what you have. No one can interfere with
you. No one has ever interfered with you.
You have free will. No one, not even God, will inter-
fere with your free will. It is protected as a holy right of
yours. You can create whatever you want, because you
create whatever you think. This wonderful universe be-
gan with God's thought. Likewise our creation begins
with our thoughts.
In our world of many individual creations—many for
each person—we are all actors for each other's script.
You are the writer, director, producer, and lead character
for your script. Everyone else plays in your creation
exactly as you direct.
Think you will be poor and robbed and cheated, and
an actor will surely oblige you. Think you are ill, and an
29
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Sixth Week
actor will transmit to you a horrible disease. Think you

are downtrodden, beaten up, and abused, and an actor
will come to your service.
When you recognize that those people you hold
grudges against are actors in your own creation, they are
easy to forgive. Then life is for giving love.
In the past when you have forgiven, you have said,
"You have done wrong to me. But I want you to know I
don't want to hold a grudge, so I'm going to try to forget
that horrible thing you did to me." Such a thought
recognizes an illusion. It gives power to a mistake: that
anyone could do harm to you without your consent. It is
impossible. Such a form of forgiveness is not forgive-
ness at all.
Instead, you need to think, / have made a mistake in
my thinking to allow you to seemingly hurt me. I recog-
nize you are merely doing what I invited, and that in
reality neither you nor anyone can hurt me. I am perfect
now, always have been and always will be. You can't
change that. I now recognize that life is for giving love
to you.
Today set aside some time to mentally note all those
wonderful people you hold grudges against. They might
be parents, sisters, brothers, friends, or strangers you
don't even know the names of. For each person say those
words of forgiveness. Read it if you like, but more
important, feel the meaning of your words.
When you go to bed tonight, think of those people,
and even others you don't think you hold a grudge over.
Picture each one, and send love from your heart. Say si-
lently, / send you love from my heart, (name) . and I
forgive you, knowing it is impossible for you to infringe
30
on my perfection. You will find this exercise to be ex-

tremely cleansing.
As you give love in this way, your whole being
opens up to receiving the love from everyone and
everything around you. Enjoy the feeling that comes—a
peaceful, joyful, quiet, yet energetic pulsation of sweet
syrup.
Forgiving, and understanding the true nature of for-
giveness, is a prime cornerstone of this course. Grudges
have been your master, and you their slave. They have
distorted your perception. They have kept you in hell
when you were made to live in heaven. In order to firmly
understand this Truth, read this lesson each day. Read
each sentence slowly, thinking about it, digesting it.
This week you begin more specific communication
with our Higher Self. Up to now, your communication
has been about Truth—the nature of creation and how
you fit into it. This week after you've settled down into
focus in the heart and received the signal from your
Higher Self, say, Today, (name) , my Higher Self, feed to
me the names of those people I want to forgive. Then sit
quietly and let those names come to you. If you want to
forgive someone whose name you don't know or
wouldn't remember, you'll receive only a description of
the incident. Keep a pencil and paper handy. Write down
each name, so you can forgive each after your quiet
period.
Do this every day this week. You may feel you need
to forgive any one person each day, or you may find it
complete for that person after one forgiveness. Your
Higher Self will tell you. Follow the guidance.
This week also continue to clear uninvited influences
from your aura as needed and close your aura whenever
31
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Sixth Week
you go into a crowd or near illness or negativity. When-

ever you think about it, give love from your heart to any-
one and everything. These practices are now a part of
your daily life. From now on, they should be done
regardless of whether or not weekly lessons mention
them.
32
SEVENTH WEEK
Correcting Thoughts
Anything that is created begins with a thought. The

thought of something really is that something, only at the
most refined vibration. Everything in the universe began
with God's thought about creation.
You are, in the most elementary sense, a thought of
God. Rather, you are a part of that marvelous, perfect
thought that created All. Being a part of that thought,
you are also the whole. God's thought that gave rise to
creation is indivisible. His one thought contains the
entire blueprint for the cosmos and every single atom
and soul.
Furthermore, God is not separate from His thought,
any more than you are separate from your thoughts. That
is why you are one with God. There is no other logical
way to understand this. God is very much in tune with,
one with, the thought that created us. You are really that
thought, in your most refined state. So you are one with
God.
Because we are the one thought that created every-
thing, we can know everything about that thought. We
are not just a separate aspect of that thought. No. We
were created to know everything contained in God's
thought that created everything.
33
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Seventh Week
That means you can choose to think any aspect of

God's thought you wish. It is just like tuning into a radio
station. You tune into any knowledge about creation.
One thing absolutely certain about God's thought is
that it embodies all of God's qualities. You are of God's
thought and you embody all of God's qualities, and so
does every other aspect of God's thought. When you tune
into some aspect of God's thought, you can be 100 per-
cent certain to experience love, happiness, joy, bliss,
Truth, pure intelligence, peace, gentleness, unbounded-
ness, energy, abundance, and nonjudgment, to name
only a few. This is your experience that God planned in
His thought when He created you.
Remember, all of creation begins with a thought.
You are a creator because you are made in the image of
God, and He is indisputably a creator. You create. Your
creations also begin with a thought. Then you experience
what you create.
If you begin with some aspect of God's thought that
created the cosmos, you will have a creation just like
God's creation. Your creation can then only give you the
experience of God's qualities. Only those qualities are
inherent in His thought. No other qualities are there. His
thought cannot manifest what it doesn't have.
This is a foolproof method for living life in heaven.
Then to err is not human. Then life is not a struggle.
Then all the forces of nature come to your aid as you
experience only God's qualities.
A glance around the world indicates this is not
happening. What went wrong? Even your own life
appears to include some struggle, some errors, some
pain. What went wrong?
34
Correcting Thoughts
Nothing went wrong. Even your seeming errors,

struggles, and pain point to your divinity and perfection.
Remember, you are made in the image of God. God is
sovereign. He created you with His thought. And so are
you sovereign—another way of saying you have free
will. You are also a creator, in God's image, and you
create with your thoughts.
God's thought, which you are one with, is available
for you. You can choose to tune into that thought. That
is your choice. It is your free will to use His thought for
your creations, or you can choose to think a thought of
your very own. Then your creation will have the quali-
ties you assign to it.
Many, many times you have chosen your own
thought and created a miserable experience. That doesn't
mean you are miserable. That's impossible. You can't
change the perfection you are. However, as a creator you
can create and experience what appears less than perfect.
Only when you start with God's thought can you be
assured of perfection and all those other wonderful
qualities.
In a very real sense, the world you create by your
own thoughts is an illusion. It is not the Truth. Truth has
permanence. Truth never changes. Truth describes the
thought of God that created us and the cosmos. That
thought is Truth. That thought tells of happiness, never
sadness. It tells of bliss and joy, never despair. It tells of
intelligence, never mistakes. It reveals abundance, never
poverty. It brings infinite energy, never weakness. It is
the hallmark of peace, never turmoil. This Truth is
simply God's thought that created the universe.
The choice is yours. You can choose to create with
35
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Seventh Week
God's thought, or make one up of your own. God would

have it no other way. You are created sovereign. You are
created with a free will. You are created a creator. The
fact you do create proves your divinity, even if you
choose to create a hell.
Today you begin to change the nature of your crea-
tions. You change your creations to be exactly like God's
thought. Your creation, your life, and your experience
are to have only God's qualities.
You can pretty much tell what your thoughts are by
looking at your creations. If you're in debt and are afraid
of the poorhouse, you have thoughts of lack and fail to
realize the abundance in God's thought. If you're lonely
and without anyone to share love with, you have
thoughts that you don't deserve love, or that it doesn't ex-
ist. "That isn't true," you say, for you insist you want
love and you want wealth.
Of course you want them. You want the experience
of all of God's qualities. You want them with a passion.
That desire is ingrained as part of your very nature. It is
how you were created. You cannot get rid of the desire
for love, for abundance, for knowledge, for joy, for
peace, etc. It is a part of you.
Nevertheless, there is some thought—probably even
subconscious—that denies your creation the qualities
you desire. "How can I possibly change my thoughts if
they're subconscious?" you ask. Until now it has been
very difficult. Today you start that process. Gradually,
methodically, but certainly, you will change your think-
ing so that it will create with God's qualities. You will
tune into God's thought and claim it as your own.
36
Correcting Thoughts
Every day this week read this lesson. Read each sen-
tence slowly and digest its meaning.
During your quiet periods, after focusing in the heart
and getting your Higher Self's signal, say, Dear (name) ,
my Higher Self, now reveal to me some of the errors in
my thinking. Then sit quietly and let your Higher Self
communicate. You will realize some thoughts that are
creating havoc in your life. Write down those thoughts
as they come to you. The lesson for this week is simply
to identify those thoughts you need to correct. Notice in
your activity throughout the day what your experiences
are. Then in your next quiet period, say, Reveal to me,
(name)
, my Higher Self, the thoughts I have that gave me
the experience of _______ This inventory is very im-
portant. You need to know the nature of your own
thoughts before you can correct them. Your Higher Self
gives that to you.
This week when you lie quietly in bed before going
to sleep, think of those people who have been in your
life. For each one realize that he or she has reacted to
you as you determined by your thoughts. Take full credit
or blame for your experience with them. Send to each
love from your heart, feeling it go to them. Then forgive
each, knowing what forgiveness really means.
37
EIGHTH WEEK
Reviewing
This is a review week. Each day this week you will

experience a capsule of each of the seven preceding
weeks. This will give you a clear picture of the progress
you've already made, and it will give a chance for the
experiences to be clearly yours before we move on.
First Day
As soon as possible after waking up, and again just

before going to bed, slowly read and understand this
prayer:
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for making me in

your image. I thank you for giving me the same
qualities that are yours. I thank you for love. I thank
you for happiness, joy, and bliss. I thank you for
knowledge. I thank you for peace. And I thank you
for abundance. I pray now that I am led back to real-
ize my whole Self.
For five to ten minutes today sit quietly and experience

love pulsating in your heart. Then as you lie quietly be-
38
Reviewing
fore going to sleep, think of some of God's qualities.

Unify with those qualities by claiming them for your
Self.
Second Day
Again, as soon as possible after waking up and just

before going to bed, slowly read and understand this
prayer:
Dear God, my creator, thank you for creating me and all

of creation with love. Thank you for giving me the ability
to feel and experience love—that which is the basis of
everything. Thank you for creating me, my whole Self,
(name) . Thank you for creating me as perfect and
unchanging, the same this minute as when I was created.
During a five- to ten-minute quiet period, focus on

your heart and feel love pulsate from there to all the
cosmos. Feel that love as your connection to everyone
and everything. Then allow the name of your Higher
Self to appear, as it did the second week. Float with your
attention on your Higher Self's name.
Throughout the day, whenever you think about it,
say, / am love, and I send love to (name) . Feel the love go
from your heart to that someone or something. Feel your
connection. Go to sleep with this same exercise of trans-
mitting love.
39
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Eighth Week
Third Day
Start the day and finish it with this prayer:
Dear God, my creator, thank you for making me

perfect and for keeping me perfect, even as I at-
tempted to separate myself from you. Thank you for
making me invulnerable to any negative or uninvited
influences. Thank you for giving me the means to
clear my aura and fill it with your love. Thank you for
keeping intact my whole Self and my name, even as I
temporarily wandered off.
Today begin your quiet period by clearing your aura

of any uninvited influences. Use the words you memo-
rized the third week and begin each quiet period with. In
the quiet period today, just enjoy the love pulsating and
allow your attention to be with the signal from your
Higher Self.
During the day, make special effort to close your aura
to all except your Higher Self whenever you go into any
crowds or areas of illness or negativity. Go to sleep
tonight thinking of God's qualities and unifying with
them by recognizing that you are those same qualities.
Fourth Day
The morning and evening prayer today is:
Dear God, my creator, thank you for making me in

your image. Thank you for giving me for my use and
40
Reviewing
enjoyment all the knowledge of creation. Give me

today all the knowledge I need and desire for a
happy, fulfilled day.
Begin your fifteen-minute quiet period by clearing

your aura of any uninvited influences. Then recognize
some of God's qualities and unify with them by claiming
them for yourself. During the quiet period, feel the love
as you focus in your heart. Speak out quietly the
thoughts you hear that you now recognize by tuning into
your Higher Self.
As you go about your day, think of the Truth that is
communicated to you in your quiet period. Determine its
relevance to your life. This evening as you are going to
sleep, transmit love energy to whoever or whatever
comes to your mind.
Fifth Day
Begin and end this day with a prayer:
Dear God, heavenly father, my creator, thank you for

keeping me clear of any negativity, illusion, or
untruth. Thank you for keeping me pure in thought
and action. Thank you for setting up a clear warning
for me when my sovereignty is clouded. Be with me
and help me to step beyond influences that make me
angry, irritable, fearful, and exhausted.
Today begin your quiet period in the same way that is

a well-established habit by now: clear your aura of any
41
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Eighth Week
uninvited influences and unify with God's qualities. This

quiet period is devoted to feeling once again the clear
signal that you will receive when there is an uninvited
influence. Ask for the signal: Now please give me my
signal for uninvited influences. When it comes, say the
words that heal the influence, being sure to include
sending love and light to any thought forms around you.
Repeat until you feel quite comfortable with the signal.
All day send love to whoever or whatever comes to
mind. Also today give special attention to closing your
aura when you are in crowds, near illness, or around
negativity. Go to sleep unifying with God's qualities.
Sixth Day
The prayer for today is:
Dear God, my creator, I receive your love as it

comes to me through everything you created. I know
you made me as love, and I give that love to every-
one and everything I meet. I know life is for giving
love. And I forgive from my heart everyone I have
thought trespassed against me. I know you made me
perfect and that no one can hurt me or change me.
My forgiveness recognizes there is nothing to
forgive.
During your quiet period (beginning as always with

clearing your aura and unifying with God), ask your
Higher Self to reveal those people or situations over
42
Reviewing
which you still hold a grudge. For each one send love
from your heart and forgive, realizing that there is truly
nothing to forgive.
Throughout the day, send love to anyone and
anything as you think about it. Continue the habit of
closing your aura. For those people revealed to you
needing your forgiveness, think special thoughts of
warmth and kindness. Go to sleep tonight with thoughts
of love and forgiveness for those people that you need to
forgive that were revealed today, during the sixth week,
or any time.
Seventh Day
Begin and end this last day of review with another

special prayer:
Dear God, my creator, thank you for thinking this

creation and for thinking me a part of it. Thank you
for creating me in your image, and for making me a
creator as yourself. I ask now for your thoughts so
that my creation is full of love also, happiness also,
abundance also, and peace also.
For your fifteen-minute period, ask your Higher Self

to reveal to you the errors in your thinking. Continue to
add to your inventory of last week.
As you go to sleep, think of some of the wonderful
times you've had in life. Realize that those times came to
you because you created them with your thoughts. Take
full credit.

PART II
Defining Your Highest Desires and

Learning the Mechanics of
Manifestation
NINTH WEEK
Claiming True Desires
By now your fifteen-minute quiet periods are easy

and natural for you. If it is comfortable, you may now do
more than one a day, and each period can be for a time
that seems right for you. Here's a word of caution,
however: these quiet periods are such serene, delightful
times, you don't want to lapse into them and ignore your
other activities. These quiet periods are for preparation
in life. Spend a short time making contact with your
Higher Self, receive the energy and knowledge you have
there, and then carry it into dynamic activity.
Each quiet period from now on is to begin with these

seven simple steps:
1. Sit comfortably, eyes closed, and focus on the

love pulsating from your heart to all of creation.
2. Clear your aura of all uninvited influences and

send light to all thought forms around you.
3. Close your aura to all except your Higher Self.
4. Unify with the qualities of God by thinking of

some of God's qualities and recognizing those qualities
as your own.
47
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Ninth Week
5. State the purpose of the particular quiet period

(such as "to practice communicating with my Higher
Self," "to receive knowledge that is appropriate at this
time," "to have revealed where my thinking is not in tune
with God's thought," etc.).
6. Receive the signal from your Higher Self and

keep that signal with you for the entire period.
7. Speak out the communication given to you in

your thoughts by your Higher Self.
By now you are quite comfortable with your other

daily practices. They are becoming more and more rou-
tine, almost automatic. Your routines throughout the
day, whenever appropriate, are:
1. Close your aura to all except your Higher Self

whenever you go into crowds, near illness, or into any
negativity.
2. Clear your aura whenever you receive your

uninvited-influence signal, whenever you have a very
strong thought to do so, and whenever you feel symp-
toms of the influence (such as irritability, exhaustion,
temper, or moodiness), and then send love and light to
any thought forms around you.
3. Send love from your heart to anyone and any-

thing throughout the day when you think about it, and
feel that love actually being transmitted and then coming
back to you.
4. Send the thought of forgiveness whenever a

grudge thought comes up, or whenever it appears to you
that someone has hurt, or is hurting, you.
48
In the evening before going to sleep you have two

practices that you can alternate:
1. Unify with God by thinking of God's qualities

and claiming them as your own.
2. Send love and forgiveness to your friends,

family, and anyone or anything that comes to your mind.
These practices during the day will take none of your

time. They are just thoughts. You think all the time any-
way. Now think these loving, healing, safety thoughts
instead of the ordinary chatter you're used to.
Before last week's review, you communicated with
your Higher Self about the thoughts you have that are
not in tune with God's thought. You started an inventory
of those areas in your thinking that need correction.
Soon you will begin a very sure, safe way to correct your
thinking—conscious and subconscious.
This week you are going to start another inventory—
an inventory of your desires. What is it you want to
experience?
Whenever you have thought of your desires and
needs, you viewed them largely from the vantage point
of your lower self. You lacked the vision of your all-
knowing intelligence. Too often your desires were
dictated by your parents, your friends, or simply your
desire to win someone else's love and respect.
Today spend your quiet period receiving
communication from your Higher Self about what it is
you want to claim in life. After you have properly
entered into the quiet period and received the signal from
your Higher Self, say, Please communicate to me my
true desires.

UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Ninth Week
Have a piece of paper handy to write down your

desires. Remember, you are of the same thought of God
as everything else is. This means that everything in the
cosmos is one with you. You are that. It is you. So
everything is for your use and enjoyment. This is
different than the man-made illusion called ownership.
Don't confuse the two. Just remember that everything
and everyone is for your enjoyment. You need only
claim it for your use with love, thankfulness, and
forgiveness.
You can't claim and get the use and enjoyment of
anything that you claim exclusively for yourself, or for
any "self-ish" motive. The "self-ish" of course refers to
the lower self. Your motives must be "Self-ish"—the
Higher Self.
Fortunately, you need not labor over the distinctions.
You simply need to ask your Higher Self for your true
desires. These are desires in Truth. These are desires that
God would have you desire, because they are in tune
with God's thought that made creation. They are the seed
thought that can give rise to your creation full of God's
qualities. Your desires are to be fulfilled with love,
abundance, peace, knowledge, joy, and all of God's other
qualities.
Write each desire down on the paper, beginning with
"I claim". Write only in the present tense. In reality there
is no future and no past, only the present. God is every-
where present—omnipresent. He is neither omnipast nor
omnifuture. When you think of the past, you are simply
imagining what might have happened. It is a creation of
your limited perception and memory. It is an illusion of
the illusion. The future is also your imagination that the
past, as you think it was, may repeat itself with some
variations. While you are busy dreaming about the past or
50
the future, you miss the present, which is the only true
reality you have.
You can claim some specific desires, so long as you
do not claim to interfere with someone else's free will.
For instance, you can claim a perfect unconditional love
relationship with Harry or Susan, but you can't claim
either Harry or Susan to be your spouse or to become
sexually intimate with you. A relationship based on
unconditional love is in everyone's highest interest.
However, whether or not someone is to marry you or
become intimate with you is up to that person. Free will
cannot be compromised, even by your strong and
powerful desire.
Be realistic. State your claim in terms you can
believe are possible. "I claim abundant wealth in the
form of $20,000, or more, each year." This is believable.
Take the limit off by adding "or more" and "or better"
whenever possible.
After your quiet periods, examine your list of true
desires. Compare it with the list of thoughts you need to
correct. At this point don't concern yourself with recon-
ciling the two lists. Just note for your amusement how
some of your present thoughts keep you from realizing
your true desires.
Soon, very soon, you're going to see the fulfillment
of these true desires.

TENTH WEEK
Creating the World of True Desires
You are made in the image of God. You are a

creator. You create your own experiences, your own
world. That world of yours begins with your thoughts—
conscious and subconscious.
Today you begin claiming and manifesting the world
you want and the world God wants. That is to say, you
begin to create the experiences God's thought holds for
you.
You know by now that you have been a creator all
along. You have not just been a potential creator, but
you have been a creator in the broadest sense of the
word. Your thoughts have always created your world,
your experiences. So you have nothing to learn about the
mechanics of creating. You have them down. You only
need a simple formula to manifest the world you truly
desire, your desire in Truth.
The Creating Formula is a simple seven-part
sentence. Memorize this sentence now before going on:
God and I claim and accept thoughts with forgiveness
and thanks. Amen.
1. God and
2. I
3. claim and accept
52
4. thoughts with
5. forgiveness and
6. thanks.
7. Amen.
Each word is an important part of the formula, and

all parts together give you a foolproof vehicle to
experience whatever you desire. A great deal of this
course so far has been to prepare you for this Creating
Formula. You already know most of what is to be
included in it.
This week you practice this Creating Formula to
bring you the experience of your Self-acceptance. Self-
acceptance is the end-product of this course, indeed of
your life on earth. There can be no higher thought, no
loftier aim, no purer desire. Now let's go into each of the
seven parts of this Creating Formula.
1. God and
You start the formula by stating qualities of God.

Simply stating and thinking His qualities elevate your
thinking to that level. Feel that process, and continue
thinking of God's qualities until you clearly feel the love
of God. You decide what qualities of God you want to
think about. There are no particular words here to
memorize. However, by way of example, you might
think:
God is love. God is light, Truth. God is happiness,

joy, and bliss. God is all-knowing intelligence. God
is everywhere present. God is perfection. God is
peace and gentleness. God is infinite energy. God is
abundance. God is nonjudgmental.
53
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Tenth Week
2. I
After you feel the love of God, recognize that you

are also those same qualities. Recognize that you are
made in the image of God, that you are one with God,
and that God's qualities are yours. Repeat the qualities of
God you thought of, but now think of them as your own.
When you finish, feel and recognize that you are
Unified. An example of this section is:
/ am made in the image of God. I am made with those

same qualities that God has. I am one with God.
Therefore, I am love. I am light, Truth. I am happiness,
joy, and bliss. I am all-knowing intelligence. I am also
everywhere present. I am perfection. I am peace and
gentleness. I am infinite energy. I am abundance. I am
nonjudgmental.
3. Claim and Accept
This section is what you desire. It is always in the

present tense. It is always as specific as possible; and, al-
ways, what you presently believe you can achieve, be-
cause you must believe to create. If you doubt, that
simply means there is another thought more powerful
that is still doing the creating. For instance, if you claim
to fly like a bird, you would probably doubt it. Such a
powerful doubt would keep you grounded despite your
desire. You need to begin with the believable. Slowly,
what you believe expands. Then one day you realize that
there are no doubts, and literally anything you claim be-
comes your experience.
54
You will learn more on claiming specific desires in

the lessons ahead and from your Higher Self. For this
week just say, / claim my Self-acceptance. Then
immediately, without pausing, accept what you've just
claimed. Say, / accept my Self-acceptance. So this part
of the formula consists of two simple and almost
identical sentences. One is / claim _______ and the other
is I accept_______
4. Thoughts with
This is the section to deal with your thoughts that

hinder your claim. As you did a couple of weeks ago,
you ask your Higher Self in a quiet period what
thoughts— conscious or subconscious—are keeping this
desire from manifesting. Every day this week ask your
Higher Self to feed you knowledge of the thoughts that
keep you from Self-acceptance. It might be fears or
doubts or anger or mistaken beliefs. It could be anything.
Once you recognize the thoughts that hinder your
claim for self-acceptance, heal those thoughts. Say, /
heal and release the thought about . After the
thought is released, replace it with the correct thought,
such as I am perfect and beautiful in place of the thought
"I am ugly and frail."
When all the specific thoughts you know about are
healed, released, and replaced, end this section with:
/ heal and release all thoughts I may have that interfere

with this claim, known or unknown, conscious or
subconscious. My thoughts are now one with, the same
as, and in tune with, God's thought.
55
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Tenth Week
5. Forgiveness and
In this section place yourself in a state of total

forgiveness. You've had a lot of practice on this. Simply
forgive anyone you might hold a grudge against.
Recognize that you forgive because you know there can
be nothing that needs forgiving. End with this section by
saying, My heart is in a state of forgiveness.
6. Thanks
In this section, simply thank God for what you have

claimed. For this week's Creating Formula, say, / thank
God for my Self-acceptance.
7. Amen
Let go now of your claim. Know that once you have

claimed something and released all conflicting thoughts,
you have what you have claimed.
Your release under this section might be:
/ release this claim to God and to the natural

laws of creation. My claim is now created. That is
the nature of natural law. Amen.
This week you are to say this Creating Formula for

Self-acceptance twice a day. You may use the example
in the appendix for the first couple of days, for this week
is mainly devoted to feeling comfortable with the
formula.
56
This Creating Formula is one of your main tools

now. Say it over and over until it is second nature and
you know what each section encompasses. Be able to
say it without any text before you.
Devote your daily quiet periods to receiving specific
thoughts that keep you from your Self-acceptance. Incor-
porate what you receive from your Higher Self into your
Creating Formula.
57
ELEVENTH WEEK
Enlivening the Heart

God knows everything. Every law of nature is part of
that thought of God which created everything: the inter-
action of molecules, the seasons, the states of physical
matter, the spiritual worlds, gravity and time, the nature
of love, the purpose of mankind, the balance of nature,
galaxies, and on and on. God knows it all. He knows it
consciously. That is, it is His thought that contains all
knowledge.
By now you know the logical extension of God's om-
niscience. You also know everything. You are that one
and same thought. Everything in that thought is there for
you to know and think. You only need to tune into that
thought and ask whatever you want to know.
How silly it is, then, that you make mistakes. How
silly it is to wonder what course of action is in your
wisest interest. The answers are all there. There's no
need to guess or fumble.
Suffering of any kind arises only when you aren't
tapped into that knowledge. Suffering results from mis-
takes, and mistakes are not taking and using the
knowledge that is yours. You miss the take—"mis-
takes."
Now there is no excuse for errors, or suffering, or
simply not living your life to the fullest. You know your
origin, and you know you share in God's all-
knowingness.
58
Furthermore, now you are in tune with your Higher

Self and that source of all knowledge. With such
awareness, every impulse of yours is naturally correct
and perfect to bring you experiences filled with all of
God's qualities.
You may not intellectually understand everything
there is to know. The intellect is such a small part of
you. It's in your head, while the connection to all
intelligence is in your heart. In your heart, you know
what you're doing is right, even though your intellect
may not understand and may even argue against it. The
intellect is limited to the sum total of your experiences
since you separated from your Higher Self. The intellect
assumes that you are a separate and lone being. That's
fantasy. What your head can tell you is based on a
fantasy.
The heart doesn't deal in fantasy. It is your
connection to your whole Self, to all intelligence, and to
all Truth. It leads you to right action, to fulfillment, to
success, and back to wholeness.
That's why the emphasis this week is on enlivening
your heart. The first day this week you are to write out a
Creating Formula to do just that. The claim section is
simply, / claim now that I enliven and empower my heart
to bring me my all-knowing intelligence.
Use your quiet period today to discover what
thoughts you have that inhibit your heart from opening
up to all-knowledge. Deal with those thoughts in the
fourth section of the formula.
After you have written out your Creating Formula
for your heart, become comfortable and familiar with
each section. You want to repeat it easily without the
paper at least once each day this week. Remember to be
centered in your heart when you say or think the
formula. Feel the Truth as you think each section.
59
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Eleventh Week
The second and every other day this week is your

time now to practice a new tool for tapping into that all-
knowing intelligence. This new tool is a kinetic signal
from your Higher Self for a "yes" and a "no." Actually,
you may already have such a signal. A chill up the spine
when you're about to say or do something evil or inap-
propriate is common. Some people experience sweaty
palms or a twitch someplace. These could be various
forms of signals from your Higher Self. You may not
remember any now, but as you become more familiar
with signals, some will dawn on you.
You are in charge of what signals you want. Always
remember that. You are not a victim to any particular
signal. If you feel it is too obvious to anyone watching,
or if it hurts, or if you just don't like it, you can tell your
Higher Self to give you a new one. This is true with all
signals, even the main signal from your Higher Self, as
well as the new "yes" and "no" signals you'll learn this
week.
Now sit comfortably with your head and spine very
vertical. Settle down with your attention in your heart.
Get your Higher-Self signal and communicate for as
long as there is the feeling to do so. Then say, Dear
(name)
, my Higher Self, please give me a "yes" signal by
rotating my head from right to left three times. Sit easily,
with your head as though it were sitting on a pivot. Don't
resist any movement. Let it gently swing to the left and
then back to the point of beginning. It will repeat this
three times, and your Higher-Self signal will return.
Practice this "yes" signal several times.
When you feel comfortable with the "yes" signal, say
Dear (name) , my Higher Self, please give me a "no" sig-
60
nal by rotating my head from right to left once. Then re-

lax again, and allow your head to rotate to the left and
return to its original position. Practice this signal several
times.
Each day practice the "yes" and "no" signals by de-
manding the "yes" and then the "no." Mix them up.
This week is only to practice the signals. For now,
don't ask questions that are to be answered by the signals
yet. Just get them strongly perfected, so you can read the
"yes" and "no" easily. Feel so comfortable with them
that you can have no doubts about this process.
If another signal comes instead of the rotating head,
and if you like that signal, go with it. Your Higher Self
may know that another type of signal is better for your
physiology. Again, if you can't stand your "yes" or "no"
signal, you can demand a different one. Don't, however,
demand different signals just to test the process. Tests of
this type do not work. It will just make you vulnerable to
doubts.
Throughout the week, simply be aware that your
heart is opening. Trust your feelings. Act on them. Your
Creating Formula is enlivening and empowering your
heart. This is the connection to God's thought, which is
all knowledge. Its input will be in the feelings of the
heart. Enjoy it.

TWELFTH WEEK
Experiencing Love Flow

God is love. God created the entire creation in His
image. Everything is love. Love is the single ingredient
of everyone and everything. Love is the bottom line. We
can trace matter to the atom, then subatomic particles,
then various forms of energy, then to love which makes
up everything.
Love is what Einstein called the unified field.
Unified. What a perfect, expressive term for love! It
unifies everything. If everything is made up of the same
thing, and that same thing is really just one thing, then it
easily follows that everything in creation is actually just
one thing. We are all of one love. We are one love. Love
unifies all of us.
We feel that link in our heart. That is what you've
been developing—the conscious awareness that love is
what you really are. Love is your link to God's thought
and all His qualities. There is really nothing else.
Everything is just an expression of love.
This course is not to teach you to melt into oblivion.
You won't just discover you are part of a vast,
undifferentiated sea of love. Each aspect of this one
creation is a unique and individual manifestation of love.
As accurately, we can say that you are a unique
expression of God.
62
You are indeed an individual. You are unique, and

you always will be unique. At the same time, you are
also Unified with all of creation.
Your role in life is also unique. You look unique.
You radiate unique vibrations that are your trademark.
You reflect God, but you reflect Him as a unique
reflector. Nothing else in creation is like you, yet
everything is Unified with you.
If you are unique, so is everyone else. Your brothers
and sisters have unique thoughts, unique roles, unique
vibrations, unique drives and desires. They look unique.
Their responses are unique. Yet, underneath all that
uniqueness is love, the same love that underlies you.
The one and only true connection we all have is love.
That is enough, for that is everything there is in creation.
It is this love connection that we have been building
these last couple of months.
We all experience love in many ways, and they are
all legitimate experiences. Sex is certainly an experience
of our unity with another person. The mother caring for
her child is an experience of love. Your fondness for a
grandparent is another type of love. The feeling of
compassion for someone caught up in a seeming tragedy
is love. Your feelings of joy at someone's success is
love. Throughout the days this week, become aware of
the many feelings you experience from your heart that
are expressions of love.
Note that not all your experiences of love are with other
people. After all, we are connected to everything by
love, so we do experience that love with everything. The
feelings you get when you look up to a clear sky of stars
are feelings of love. The feeling you have when your
63
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Twelfth Week
dog greets you is clearly an exchange of love. Animals

and Plants respond to your feelings of love. Be aware
now of all those wonderful and varied expressions of
love in your life.
We can have a different feeling of love every
moment of the day. It is not a static, unchanging feeling
for us. Each moment brings a new set of experiences,
with different people, new environments, new plants,
and new animals. With everyone and everything we can
experience our connecting love. We can acknowledge
that we are Unified by simply feeling the love.
Today, write out a Creating Formula for
experiencing the various forms of love in your life. In
your quiet period today, ask your Higher Self to give
you the most perfect words for your "Claim and
Acceptance" section. When you think you have the most
perfect sentence, speak it out and ask your Higher Self if
that is the most perfect claim for your Creating Formula.
Wait for a "yes" or "no" signal. If you get a "no" signal,
ask again for the perfect words and repeat.
As with all Creating Formulas, you will need to ask
your Higher Self for the thoughts you have that interfere
with this experience. The list you prepared several weeks
ago about such thoughts might be helpful for you now.
Incorporate that input into the "Thoughts" section of the
formula.
Just as you did last week, become very familiar with
this Creating Formula. After a couple of days you should
be able to think or quietly say it without the paper. Each
day this week recite the Creating Formula with under-
standing, conviction, meaning, and of course love.
64
When you feel very comfortable with this week's

Creating Formula, you may do another for a perfect and
unconditional love expression with a specific person. Be
cautious here, however. Do not attempt to interfere with
another person's free will. You can't. It will lead only to
frustration for you. So don't do a Creating Formula now,
or ever, for someone to marry you, make sexual love to
you, move in with you, etc. Your claim is for a perfect
and unconditional love expression with that person, so
be open as to how that perfect love expression can
manifest. Then sit back and enjoy the feeling of love it
brings you.
This whole week is to feel the oneness with
everything. When we feel that oneness, we are bound to
feel an aspect of love. It is impossible not to feel it, just
as it is impossible not to get wet when you put your head
in the water. You must feel love when you are Unified.
These Creating Formulas bring new and renewed
feelings of love. Simply enjoy them. That is God's
intention.
During your quiet periods this week receive any
knowledge that is appropriate from your Higher Self
about love. Speak out what comes to you. Periodically
ask, "Have I spoken out the knowledge correctly?" Wait
for your "yes" or "no" signal. If "no," find out what
correction needs to be made. Using your "yes" and "no"
to check your communication is very important. It
develops confidence in your communication, and it gives
you more practice on the "yes" and "no" signals.
This week your regular practice of sending love to
everyone and everything as it occurs to you will be espe-
cially joyful. Know and feel your heart connection as
you send your infinite supply of love to the world.
65
THIRTEENTH WEEK
Achieving Spontaneous Right Action
Thoughts are the basis of all your actions. Before

you act, there is a thought, however brief. Sometimes
you give a great deal of thought before you act. You
think of all the alternatives, weigh the options, and try to
predict results. At other times you act even before the
thought is recognized.
Nevertheless, all thought leads to action or affects
some aspect of your action in some way. This is the
corollary of what this course has been emphasizing—
that all thought leads to some experience.
The key, therefore, to the most productive, fulfilling,
and enjoyable activity is to have the correct thoughts. No
one can argue with that. Everyone wants correct
thoughts, and everyone strives for correct action.
With all this striving and good intentions, why, then,
do we see so much evil action, so much unhappiness, so
much unfulfillment, and so much wasted motion? By
now you know the answer. It is simply because people
are making up their own fantasies. They manufacture
their own thoughts instead of allowing themselves to be
in tune with that one great thought that created us.
When you are in tune with God's thought, then all the
thoughts that bubble into your head are correct. That is,
66
they are thoughts that propel you into action that can
only give the experience of happiness, abundance, suc-
cess, joy, love, and God's other qualities. Only the qual-
ities of God are experienced with God's thought.
You don't always experience God's qualities when
you make up your own thoughts, which you are very
capable of doing. You imagine what isn't true, such as
being poor, or being sick, or being wronged by someone,
or being unloved. These thoughts are simply not true,
and no amount of your thinking can change that.
Creation was made for you to experience God's qualities.
Your little independent thoughts can certainly manifest
the experience those thoughts represent. Think poverty,
and you will experience it. Think sickness, and you will
experience it. Think growing old to die, and you will
experience it. Think you aren't loved, and that is your
experience. Think unhappiness, and that is your
experience. Think people are out to hurt you, and that is
your experience.
It is your experience, but that doesn't mean it is the
Truth. It is only your experience. Your experience must
follow what you think. You are made in the image of
God. He is a Creator, and so are you then a creator. His
creation began with His thought. Your creation also be-
gins with your thought.
This week you expand your experience of
manifesting what you truly want. You begin to
experience that you can spontaneously do the correct
activity. It will seem that you won't even think before
acting, but we know that can't be true. What happens is
that you think of action just before doing it. That way the
thought and the action appear as one. This is how it
works when you are truly in tune with God's thought.
67
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Thirteenth Week
His thought bubbles into your mind, and quite

spontaneously you act. Pretty soon life just flows easily.
You don't have to conjure, weigh alternatives, debate
options, and then blindly leap. You just act.
When you use your own little thoughts, you do
blindly leap. There is no way you can know enough facts
in your head to work out the right action every time.
Sometimes you might luck out, but never always. There
are too many unknowns.
However, remember that you have a quality of God
described as all-knowing intelligence. That quality
comes forth when you are in tune with His thought.
Then you instantly compute the right course of action. In
the same instant, you think the action and perform it,
quite automatically.
Right action is that action which gives you the ex-
perience of God's qualities: happiness, love, joy, bliss,
abundance, nonjudgment, unboundedness, all-knowing
intelligence, peace, energy, gentleness, etc. It is this right
action that leads you away from your imaginations. It
leads you away from fear, insecurity, and loneliness, and
toward abundance and true contributions to society. It is
action that is fulfilling and successful and satisfying.
Look at the list of experiences you want to have that
you wrote out several weeks ago. Compare that list once
again with the list you made of thoughts that are holding
you away from those experiences. This week you're
going to put those lists together and start to manifest
your true desires.
Today, write out a Creating Formula for guidance in
achieving spontaneous correct action. Use your quiet
68
period to ask help from your Higher Self with this for-
mula. Check your communication and the correctness of
the formula with your "yes" and "no" signals. This is a
very important Creating Formula. Feel comfortable with
it. Say it meaningfully and with love every day.
Tomorrow you are to pick an activity to create from
your list of experiences you want. Pick an experience
that seems attainable, one you do believe can happen.
Everything is possible, and that you will very soon
realize. For this first experience, however, it is important
that your own doubts, fears, and imaginations don't
block the manifestation. So pick something that is
believable.
Next, use a quiet period to check and make sure that
the activity you choose is in your highest interest. You
do this by asking your Higher Self (and be sure to have
its signal) if it is wise to ask a question about .
(describe the activity). If you get a "yes," then ask, Is it
in my highest and wisest interest to______. [describe the
activity]? If you receive a "yes" signal, then write out a
Creating Formula for the experience you want. Check
with your Higher Self for any thoughts you need to deal
with that could interfere with the experience. Also, use
your "yes" and "no" signals to check the correctness of
your Creating Formula.
Remember, you are still learning these techniques.
Do not try to leap too fast. Just do these two Creating
Formulas. Feel comfortable and grounded in using them.
Before long, you will be using them regularly as the
basis for your thoughts to bring whatever experience you
and your Higher Self know is in your highest and wisest
interest.
69
FOURTEENTH WEEK
Manifesting Perfect Health
During your quiet periods each day, remember that it

is your own Self—your Higher Self—with whom you
are communicating. There are many forms of life beyond
your senses, and some are quite aware and feeding you
guidance.
Others are busybodies that delight in your attention.
Their communication may or may not be helpful; the
chances are very good that it would be useless for you, if
not harmful. That isn't because those souls are trying to
be intentionally misleading or mischievous. They simply
do not have the awareness to help.
Therefore, you must always follow the procedures
exactly for your quiet period. Always unify with God.
Always clear your aura of any uninvited influences. Al-
ways close your aura to all except your Higher Self.
Always have your Higher-Self signal. These safeguards
are essential. There is no shortcut.
You also need to remember not to add to this course.
Don't anticipate, and don't feel that you are ready for
more specific Creating Formulas. "Safety First" is
always your consideration. It is only time. Take each
lesson as it is given.
70
Gradually, you have come a long way. You now feel

comfortable with the concepts of your divinity, your per-
fection, and your holiness. You now grasp the reality of
your oneness with everyone and everything. You now
understand how you are a creator and how you are con-
stantly creating your experiences with your thoughts.
You now appreciate the difference in the quality of your
experiences—the quality of life—when your thoughts
are in tune with, and the same as, God's thought.
Whenever you experience pain, you know your
thoughts need correction. There can be no pain with
God's thought. Only His qualities are manifested with
His thought. God is not pain. He knows of no such ex-
perience. Pain is your very own manifestation.
Medical science is finally appreciating the power of our
thoughts on our health. Evidence is overwhelming now.
People have cured the incurable by thinking themselves
perfectly healthy and believing it. A whole new body of
science is developing around stress-related diseases.
Psychological factors of thought are known to
precipitate an experience of pain.
Even more profound is that the pain of poor health is
not reality. It is illusion. Remember, you can create your
own individual experience. However, you cannot ever
change what you really are, what you were created as.
You can only change your experience.
So, even if you experience cancer, you are still
perfect in reality. If you experience ulcers, in Truth you
are well. You can bring on any kind of experience you
think, but you can't alter the fact you are created perfect,
still are perfect, and always will be perfect.
71
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Fourteenth Week
While this is a fact, the problem has gone unnoticed

because the connection of your thoughts to your health
isn't so obvious. No one thinks, "I want to experience
cancer" or "I want to be blind" or "I think I'll get a cold
this week." Of course, those thoughts are very powerful
and would indeed affect your health. But the type of
thoughts that deny your perfect health are usually not so
obvious.
One very common thought that produces ill health is
the grudge. You believe someone has hurt you, so you
hold a grudge. This thought stops the flow of your life
force. Love is your life force. When you hold a grudge,
you intentionally stop love.
Another such thought is fear of something. Again,
any fear cuts off love. Fear is simply your denial that
you are perfect and a denial of the fact that nothing can
change your perfection. Somehow you've manufactured
the idea that something can bite into your perfection and
can change you for the worse. This unfounded fear
denies the life force of love.
The life force of love always recognizes your perfec-
tion. When it is flowing, you can only experience that
perfection. Regardless of your experience of pain, when
the life force of love comes into your life, perfection
must return.
Any thought that is not one with God's thought is a
potential for pain. Look at the list of your thoughts that
are at odds with those of God. Any of these could pro-
duce illness. Any of these deny love by denying your
true nature.
No attempt will be made to expand further on the
types of thoughts you have that may need correcting.
You know what they are. They inhibit your flow of love.
72
Weeks ago you asked your Higher Self for input on

some of those thoughts. You now have a good
beginning. That list is not complete, but you have the
tools to expand it.
Today write a Creating Formula for perfect health.
Use your quiet period to expand on your list of thoughts
that can inhibit your perfect health. Freely use your
"yes" and "no" signals to verify your communication
with your Higher Self. Use them to check your formula
and to check your inhibiting thoughts. As with last week,
become very familiar with the formula for perfect health.
Say it each day with love and confidence. It is true.
Know that when this formula is said, you have set in
motion whatever it takes to have perfect health. Then the
next time you say the formula, know that the process has
already started. It has. Perfect health has already
manifested at a subtler level. The physical expression
now must follow. It must. It will. Therefore, never repeat
the formula because you think nothing has happened so
you'd better do another. Rather, repeat the formula to
add push to what has already been started.
Tomorrow pick out some health problem you ex-
perience. Use your quiet period to find out from your
Higher Self what thoughts need correcting. Then write
out a Creating Formula. Say this formula this week
along with the formula for perfect health. Starting now,
however, you need not repeat the whole formula if this
one immediately follows the formula for perfect health.
Repeat only those sections that are different (Claim and
Accept, Thoughts With, Thanks) and the Amen.
Expect to notice strides toward perfect health this
week. It is your divine heritage. You are returning to the
Truth of your perfection.

Here is one small reminder: don't forget to send love

to anyone and anything that occurs to you. Close your
aura to all except your Higher Self whenever you go into
crowds or any negativity. Continue to clear your aura of
uninvited influences. Go to sleep with the thoughts of
unification one night and with thoughts of love and for-
giveness the next night.
74
FIFTEENTH WEEK
Receiving Guidance for Wise Activity

You have arrived. Now you are ready to break out of
the womb of this course. You are ready to use all the
techniques you've developed.
No longer need you worry about what is the wisest
course of action. You know because you are Unified
with your all-knowing intelligence, and you can find out
anything for the asking.
No longer need you experience loneliness or lack of
love. You are Unified with your love and attract it to
flow through you.
No longer need you experience pain. You are
Unified with your perfection and can correct any
thinking that brings the experience of pain.
No longer need you experience anything but God's
qualities. Actually, you never needed to. However, you
were buried in a vicious circle of negative, individual
thoughts that perpetuated experiences of pain, lack, fear,
and failure.
This is not to say that all your days from now on will
be the experience only of God's bliss. It is just that no
longer need it be anything else. The techniques that you
have work in direct proportion to your doing them regu-
larly and carefully. They do work.
75
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Fifteenth Week
For a while you may need to deal with those

stubborn thoughts that are out of sync with God's
thought that created you. Until they are neutralized and
released, they may continue to manifest experiences.
Don't let that impede your diligence. Those thoughts
may even set up counterthoughts that this course is silly,
or a waste, or ineffective, or even evil. Those thoughts
appear almost to have a life of their own, and now
they're doing everything they can to save their lives. Just
observe that process, but don't buy into the negativity.
Practice these techniques with innocence, knowing
where they'll take you.
Your quiet periods now are free for you to receive
whatever guidance you want. Your Higher Self is yours.
It is you. Your whole Self is now available for any help
you need in fulfilling your purpose in life.
That is the key now to all your communication with your
Higher Self—fulfilling your purpose in life. That is
really all you are interested in, if you think about it.
What is your purpose in life? First, your highest pur-
pose is to return to being Unified—return to the state of
knowing who and what you are in Truth, and return to
the experiences of God's qualities. That is your primary
purpose, and for that your Higher Self has always prod-
ded and guided you. It stands ready now to communicate
anything you want to know for that return. Information
will be fed to you during your daily quiet periods. Ques-
tions on your highest activity will always be answered
by either using the "yes" or "no" signals, or by direct
communication.
You also have a secondary purpose, and for everyone
it is different. That is your daily activity concerned with
76
living. Some call it dharma. It is any activity that makes

it easiest for you to realize your primary purpose. Your
work, your love life, your recreation, your studies, and
your hobbies are all for the purpose of returning you to
being Unified. On these activities, your Higher Self is
also eager to guide and complete your knowledge.
Today and in your quiet periods from now on, you
are to have two sections. First, just be receptive.
Receive. Any knowledge that is wise for you to have
will come at that time. Second, you may ask for
guidance on any subject, but for each subject always
begin with, Is it in my highest and wisest interest to ask
about (subject) ?
If the answer is "no," you may want to find out why.
Maybe it is because you already know the answer.
Maybe it is something you need to work out further
without any additional knowledge. Possibly it is simply
an illusion you're dealing with. Explaining a "no" can be
very enlightening.
If the answer is "yes," find out if your Higher Self
wants to communicate the answer directly to you or
whether you should ask more yes-or-no questions.
Usually your Higher Self will let you determine which
route you want to take.
Always preface each substantive question with, Is it
in my highest and wisest interest to_______[state your
desire or possible course of action].
If your answer to a question seems strange, check to
see if your aura has an uninvited influence. That always
clouds your answers, which may be hard to perceive or
may be downright wrong.
If your answer to a question is "no," it may mean "No,
77
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Fifteenth Week
it isn't wise for you to have an answer to that particular

question." That is an "untrue no." To find out, ask, Is
that a true no?
Remember also that your questions are taken
literally. What you say must be what you mean.
Carefully choose your words. Always think about any
double meaning you might accidentally be putting into
your sentence structure.
When you ask about the highest and wisest course of
action, know that a "yes" may not preclude the exact op-
posite action. It can be in your highest and wisest
interest to change jobs. At the same time it might be in
your highest and wisest interest not to change jobs. You
will not receive an answer to "Which is the highest and
wisest?" You will only be guided within a broad frame-
work, because you always have a wide range of choices,
any of which would be perfect for you.
Your free will is not tampered with. This is because
at this delicate stage while you think of your Higher Self
as separate, you must keep exercising that free will.
Your Higher Self will not allow your free will to become
dormant. There are any number of spirits that would love
to usurp your free will and take over every aspect of
your life. That's why you must always use the safeguards
during your quiet period.
These quiet periods are the key to using your Creating
Formula. You may now use the formula for any desire
provided (1) your Higher Self has confirmed during a
quiet period that the desire is in your highest and wisest
interest, and (2) your Higher Self has revealed the
thoughts you have that stand in the way of that desire. If
you have any doubts or questions about the Creating
78
Formula, clear them up with your Higher Self during a

quite period.
Know that once you’ve said the formula, it started to
manifest. Almighty nature has started to muster all its
forces to bring you the experience you desire and believe
will happen. Continue, however, to fuel the
manifestation daily with Creating Formulas until your
experience comes about. Sometimes those nasty
individual thoughts are stubborn and need to be burned
off more gradually.
After all, you’ve had thoughts of lack of money, or
lack of love, or poor health, or whatever, for a long time.
These thoughts need to be changed. Each time you say
the Creating Formula and deal with them, you are closer
getting the experience. Something happens each time.
79
SIXTEENTH WEEK
Reviewing
Now let's review the last seven weeks. Even though

each day you will emphasize the important aspect of one
of the weeks, you may continue any of the techniques
you've developed. Your quiet period each day can be for
any purpose, in addition to a time of passive receiving
from your Higher Self. You may also continue to do
your Creating Formulas for your highest and wisest
desires.
First Day
As soon as possible in the morning and again at night

say the following prayer. Add it to whatever you feel in
your heart.
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for creating me in

your image. I thank you for giving me for my use the
thought that created everything perfect. I thank you
for the ever-present joy and happiness and
abundance found in your thought. I am now Unified
with you and in tune with your thought.
Look at the list of your desires you made the ninth week.
Note that some of these desires are well on the way
80
Reviewing
to fulfillment. During your quiet periods today ask your

Higher Self again to give you your highest desires. Are
they the same? Are your desires changing as you
change? Do any of these desires need a Creating
Formula?
Second Day
Your prayer for this morning and evening is:
Dear God, my creator, you and I now claim and ac-

cept thoughts with forgiveness and thanks. I thank
you for making me a creator by simply thinking. And
thank you for offering me your thought as my own,
so that I can experience all your qualities.
Today read the lesson for the tenth week. Then read
all the Creating Formulas you've written out. Do you feel
comfortable with the formulas? Can you notice some
manifestation taking place from your formulas? Do you
think you could now do an impromptu Creating Formula
when the occasion arises? Feel grateful now for the mag-
nificent, perfect, and powerful soul you are.
Third Day
Dear God, my creator, thank you for my heart, my
cosmic connection to you and all of your creation.
Thank you for the knowledge of creation, knowledge
which is mine. I do now empower my heart to receive
all that is mine, in love and peace and joy. I thank
you, God, for never letting me separate from
81
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Sixteenth Week
my Higher Self. I thank you for always providing me

with a link to my whole Self and to you.
This is your prayer for this morning and evening.

Devote some time during your quiet period today to
strengthening your "yes" and "no" signals. Ask for a
"no"; then a "yes"; etc. Ask for one or the other, then
verify what you got with the question, Was that a "yes"?
or Was that a "no"?
Today also recite at least twice the Creating Formula

to enliven and empower your heart. Can you now
differentiate between what your head says to you and
what comes from the heart? Relax into the heart. It takes
diligent practice, and the reward is all of creation.
Fourth Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for making me

with love. I thank you for making all your creation
with love. And I thank you for the love that connects
me to everyone, everything, and you. I am a unique
individual, and I now radiate love and allow it to
flow through me.
Add to this morning and evening prayer your love in

your own words.
Read the Creating Formula you wrote on love. Think
about what expressions of love have improved in your
life. Write them down, knowing that such a list can now
only grow and grow.
82
Reviewing
Take particular note of how your love expression has

improved with a specific person. Throughout the day be
thankful and grateful for the love in your life as you send
it to everyone and everything that comes your way.
Fifth Day
Your morning and evening prayer is as follows:
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for making me in

your image. My father, who knows everything, I
thank you for giving me that same intelligence. I now
open up myself to your intelligence through my
heart, and let it guide me toward perfect, correct ac-
tion. I thank you that my action now gives me joy,
abundance, and success.
Have you noticed that events just happen quite spon-

taneously for you now? Today give special thought to
that. Make a list of some incidents you remember. You
may have called it luck, or being in the right place at the
right time, or the unexpected that lead you to a solution.
More and more this is to be your ordinary experience,
but while it is still extraordinary, it is fun to make special
note.
Have you been using your "yes" and "no" signals to
help guide you to correct action? Have you seen how
these signals really saved a chain of events you couldn't
foresee?
Finally, review the procedure in receiving guidance
for correct right action in the thirteenth week.
83
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Sixteenth Week
Sixth Day
I thank you for my perfection, God, my creator. I

thank you for always giving to me a perfect body that
exemplifies you. And thank you for never taking
away that perfection, regardless of what I think and
therefore experience. I am now one with you, made
in your image, and I deny any other form for myself.
Such a prayer in the morning and evening

strengthens your sense of being Unified.
Look today at your list of thoughts that need
correction —the thoughts that are out of tune with God's
thought. Can you see more clearly now how some of
those thoughts are linked to your health? Do you now
acknowledge that only you are in charge of your
experience of good or bad health?
Read today your Creating Formula for perfect health.
Can you now see some changes in your health arising
from your formulas? Start a list of these changes and
give yourself special thanks for changing your
experiences.
Seventh Day
This morning and evening give your own prayer of

special thanks to God for what you have gained from
this course. It is really a prayer of thanks for what you
are and for your realizing that. Naturally, it can include
your improved love expressions, improved health,
improved successful actions, more abundance, the
feeling of Self-
84
Reviewing
sufficiency, the experience of peace, a happier attitude,

or the security of realizing that the insanity of the world
is "The Illusion".
Today give special thought to your Creating
Formulas. Do you want to add any? Eliminate some?
Combine some? Revise some? This actually is always an
ongoing process. Today is to experience that process and
to give thanks for your progress in just sixteen weeks.

PART III
Expanding Your Tools of Guidance

SEVENTEENTH WEEK
Clearing Auras of Loved Ones
Let's review what your daily habits and techniques

are. You spend at least once a day in your quiet period,
which can last for whatever time is comfortable for you.
That will vary from day to day. Be sure to begin your
quiet period in exactly the prescribed way: sitting
comfortably with your eyes closed, centering in the
heart, unifying with God, clearing your aura of uninvited
influences, closing your aura to all except your Higher
Self, and stating the purposes of your quiet period, and
receiving the signal from your Higher Self and keeping
that signal for the entire period.
Remember, yours must be only the highest of
spiritual purposes. This means that the quiet period is to
be used for gaining Truth and for guidance in becoming
whole. Any of your activities that brings you close to
being Unified can be dealt with in your quiet period. If
you have specific questions, you always first ask if it is
in your highest and wisest interest to ask the question.
Never pursue a question that is unwise. Your answers
will not be reliable.
In all of your communication with your Higher Self,
keep in mind that you have many options for whatever
89
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Seventeenth Week
you do on earth. Many will be equally in your wisest and

highest interest. So just because you receive an answer
that to do something is wise doesn't preclude other
action. It neither precludes some other seemingly
opposite action, nor does it preclude that not acting
could be wise. You must check out all the alternatives
with your Higher Self, and don't be surprised when you
end up with several choices that are all wise.
You have free will. You must use it. You will not be
allowed to use these techniques to forego all decisions.
No. You will only be guided into action that will take
you a step closer to being Unified. That is the only goal
of the communication.
Of course, that goal brings with it all the goals of
your life—abundance, joy, happiness, intelligence,
success, peace of mind, energy, and all of God's other
qualities. That is the goal. Along the way to that goal,
you have many things to learn. Your thoughts need to be
corrected, and often that means you need to experience
something that will shake up your thinking.
Those experiences of being shaken are precious.
They are also in your wisest and highest interest. Yet the
short-term experience might be uncomfortable, and you
may want to curse this course and your Higher Self for
such "poor guidance." In those moments, instead turn to
your Higher Self. Find out the reasons for the
experience. Learn the lessons intended. Correct the
thoughts that are in error.
When your lesson is well learned, it will never have
to be repeated. Until the correction in your thinking is
made, you can be assured that the lessons in various
forms will
90
keep coming. So learn the lesson and offer thanks for the
guidance, no matter what your initial experience.
During your quiet periods, you can take the bull by
the horns and ask for the thoughts you need to correct.
You've started that already. Simply keep it up and then
do Creating Formulas to correct the thoughts.
Creating Formulas are now also a daily routine, if
not habit. Your unfulfilled desires (that are true desires
confirmed by your Higher Self) are clues to thoughts
that need correcting. By reciting the Creating Formula
for your true desire, you can quickly bring about changes
in your experience.
Just remember that you do the formula and then act.
Act. That is important. You can't just do the formula and
stay in bed. You must act. It is through your actions that
the manifestation takes place.
If you have a true desire for perfect employment at
$20,000 or more per year, recite the Creating Formula
and then look for the job. Search the newspaper. Send
out your resume. Ask people about leads. Go to
employment agencies. Act, act, and act. All the forces of
nature are behind your actions, and the right job is bound
to come. But you have to put yourself in the right place
at the right time.
It is easy to become complacent with your new tech-
niques. Do not let that happen. These techniques are to
bring dynamic activity, not laziness.
Your daily Creating Formulas can be for anything
you desire. The only requirement is that you check with
your Higher Self that the desire is true—that is, that it is
in your wisest and highest interest.
91
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Seventeenth Week
Make certain you also use the present tense through-

out the Creating Formula. Then say it with love in your
heart, knowing fully that the wheels have already started
turning to bring you that experience.
In addition to your daily quiet periods and Creating
Formulas, you are to maintain diligence in closing your
aura to all except your Higher Self. Do this whenever
you go into a crowded place or where there is negativity.
Whenever you have any reason to believe that you may
have an uninvited influence, clear your aura
immediately. These two practices are very important for
your comfort and maximum growth.
This week you expand your role in clearing
uninvited influences. Whenever you see any sign of
negativity, such as a fight, an accident, or tension, you
can clear the aura of those involved from any uninvited
influences. You can be sure some are present. They may
have caused the negativity in the first place. In any
event, they love that kind of atmosphere, and they jump
on the bandwagon. The uninvited influences aggravate
the feelings of those involved in the negativity, so say
the words to clear the area of the influences.
Sometimes you may receive your uninvited-
influence signal quite suddenly. That influence may be
for someone around you, so go ahead and clear it
without caring much where it is.
You don't want to spend your whole life clearing away
uninvited influences. You have your own activity to be
mostly concerned with. However, during your quiet
period this week, pick a couple of people particularly
close to you—a spouse, a child, a parent, or very close
friend. Ask your Higher Self if it is wise for you to clear
92
any uninvited influences for each person. If yes, then

ask, Is the aura of (name) clear of uninvited influences? If
"no," clear it. Then repeat the question and clear the in-
fluences until you get a "yes" answer that the aura is
clear. If the person is around you, you will notice an
immediate change. That change, however, may not last.
Another uninvited influence may come soon thereafter,
but that can't be your worry.
By now you also have the established practice of
sending love from your heart to whomever and
whatever, whenever you think of it. And don't forget
your precious practices at bedtime of sending love and
forgiveness, or of unifying with God's qualities.
93
EIGHTEENTH WEEK
Promoting Another's Self-Acceptance
Everyone is your vehicle for realizing your

wholeness. This course has emphasized your own
responsibility for yourself—for your Self. That is proper.
You must accept your own fate. You have free will. You
must freely will to live a life of full potential.
That is true of everyone. Yet there is a connection
between us all. As long as even one of us remains
separated, there is imbalance for everyone. If one leg of
a table is separated, or even just shorter, it throws off the
whole table, no matter how perfect the other legs.
By the same token, everyone's attitude, perception of
reality, and awareness affects your own. This is group
consciousness. Everyone is tied into that group aware-
ness. It molds your own attitudes, your own values, and
your own desires. In that way everyone else is a vehicle
for realizing your wholeness.
What other people think—collectively and individually
—is part of you. You are forced to deal with it. Actually,
these others are largely responsible for the thoughts you
now must correct in your Creating Formulas. The
stronger the errors are in this group consciousness, the
greater is the pull on you, and the harder is the correc-
94
tion. So you have a definite stake in what is happening to

everyone else.
In the same way, when large numbers of people cor-
rect their thinking, bringing it in tune with God's
thought, you are affected. Your own process becomes
easier.
The orderliness of Truth has an interesting
characteristic. Only a small bit of orderliness goes a long
way. It takes a few perfectly ordered light-waves to
bring a whole system of light-waves into perfect order.
The result is the laser light. The same is observed with
magnets. It takes only a few orderly waves to bring a
whole magnetic system into order.
It is the same with group consciousness. A few
ordered minds greatly affect whole populations. A small
fraction of a community can change the whole
community. Not surprisingly, this kind of change goes
largely unnoticed. It "just happens."
In recent years this kind of change has been taking
place. There are hundreds of groups and countless in-
dividuals making it their primary goal to experience
wholeness—being Unified with their Higher Selves and
with all creation. This course is one such example.
In this century you have witnessed a renewed
concern among mankind for spiritual values, for physical
health, and for the environment. You have seen a
reversal of many destructive practices on a global scale.
This reversal is coming about simply because of a few
groups and people that have their thoughts in tune with
God's thought. Those few are changing the world. They
are literally your vehicle for your wholeness.
It is that small nucleus of people now on earth that is
95
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Eighteenth Week
expanding your awareness. Not many years ago you

probably would not have been interested in this course.
Certainly you wouldn't have gotten this far into it, had it
not been for the changing group consciousness. Now
part of your awareness is the desire for a return to
wholeness.
So, indeed, everyone is your vehicle for realizing
your wholeness. All are in this together. While you are
responsible for yourself, that includes some
responsibility for others. You can't experience total
wholeness until everyone else experiences it with you.
All legs on the table must be Unified.
Last week you experienced some of the joy of
helping others. You cleared the auras of some of your
very close ones of uninvited influences. You
immediately felt the joy of doing just that simple act.
You lived vicariously in their new freedom, even if for a
short time.
This week you expand on helping others. You don't
do this by preaching or even talking to them. You aren't
interested in winning converts. You won't try to
convince anyone.
You are simply going to use your own creating
powers to help change their awareness. Remember, we
are all connected. What you think and believe does
affect those around you—indeed everyone on earth.
When your thoughts are one with that creating thought
of God, your effect is thousands of times more powerful
than when you are thinking a thought you made up.
This week do a Creating Formula for one or two of
the people closest to you. You may also do your other
formulas if you have time, but this project takes priority
this
96
week. In the formula, you simply claim that the persons

have Self-acceptance.
You claim and accept Self-acceptance for those per-
sons. This is important to understand. You claim their
Self-acceptance: this means that you perceive this Self-
acceptance. You believe they have it; you know they
have it. It is your thoughts you are dealing with. So in
the "Thoughts" section of the formula, consider your
thoughts that interfere with your belief in their Self-
acceptance. Likewise, it is your acknowledgment of for-
giveness that you are dealing with in the "Forgiveness"
section.
Once you firmly establish their Self-acceptance in
your mind, you manifest it for your own experience. Of
course, they too reap the rewards. They gain Self-accep-
tance. There is no telling how many people are respon-
sible in part for your level of consciousness. Everyone is
everyone else's vehicle for realizing wholeness.
You are not interfering with another person's free
will by doing this Creating Formula. You are in actuality
promoting their free will. No one has free will when they
are not Unified. Imagined fears, worries, alienation,
loneliness, poverty, unhappiness—these are the true
enemies of free will. Once Unified and experiencing
Self-acceptance, they have free will.
However, this is the only Creating Formula you can
do for someone without their consent. If a person
chooses to be sick or poor or unhappy or whatever, you
can't interfere. God Himself will not interfere with His
beloved's creation, even if it is filled with error and
illusion. Free will is protected by absolute law.
97
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Eighteenth Week
With a person's permission, however, you may do a

Creating Formula for some problem he or she is experi-
encing. Just say the Creating Formula, realizing that it is
your thought, your perception we're dealing with. You
claim the solution. You accept it because you believe it
and know the solution is already manifest. It is, or
course, at some level of creation. It is your thought and
your forgiveness you deal with. Then their solution
becomes your experience. What a glorious gift! But
remember: you do this only with their permission. We
do not interfere with another person's creation or their
free will.
98
NINETEENTH WEEK
Dreaming for Truth
You are so much more than you realize, although

you are now quickly grasping your totality. This week
you explore another exciting aspect: your dreams.
Everyone is fascinated by dreams. Scientists explore
the physiology of dreaming. They've noted rapid eye
movements, an absolutely still body, and active brain-
wave patterns. Psychologists look to dreams for analysis
to probe deep into the subconscious. Some mystics
consider dreams a communication from spirits. Yet with
all the probing, study, and discussion, dreams remain
largely a mystery.
They are obviously a very significant part of your
life. Everyone dreams. Nothing in this world is without a
reason, so dreams must have their purpose also.
Indeed they do. You might say that they are another
state of consciousness. Your waking state is one, and
dreams are another. While you dream, you live that
dream. Its delights and fears seem real to you. Its ex-
periences are acted out in your mind.
For years mankind has recognized the vast subcon-
scious mind—that huge reservoir of your total input of
thoughts and experience. It is your personal computer. It
is that part of your mind that you program, so you can
99
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Nineteenth Week
go on automatic pilot much of the time. This vast sub-

conscious mind stores the thoughts, ideas, and convic-
tions you give to it, and it is this mind that you use to
manifest your experiences.
This is the reason you can seriously doubt that your
thoughts manifest your experiences. "I am poor, but I
don't want to be poor. I think rich," you say. Fine. But as
long as your personal computer says you are poor, that
subconscious thought is what you'll manifest.
You have subconscious thoughts about everything
you experience. Of course you have some conscious
thoughts, too. As you become more and more whole, the
greater the role your conscious thoughts play. At
wholeness— when you are fully integrated with your
Higher Self and your thoughts are one with God's
thought—you have whatever you consciously think. The
subconscious is your ever-obedient servant for whatever
you decide to think.
Until you reach that point of wholeness, a lot of your
experiences come from your being on automatic pilot.
You experience what you've programmed.
How can you change the program of the
subconscious mind? The techniques of this course will
surely and certainly do that. You receive from you
Higher Self the thoughts that need correcting. You verify
with your Higher Self your true desires and learn what
thoughts you have that stand in your way. Through the
Creating Formula, you change the program and
experience your desires. In this way your "personal
computer," the subconscious mind, gets reprogrammed.
We know that your Higher Self has never really been
separated from you. You consciously tried to deny it.
100
Dreaming for Truth
Your tried to cut off its communication. You refused to

recognized the voice you now hear and love, but you
could not stop your Higher Self from doing everything
possible to restore your wholeness and sanity. The er-
roneous programs of your subconscious mind had to be
corrected.
Since you refused its input while you were awake,
the reprogramming suggestions were made while you
were asleep through dreams. Dreams are your Higher
Self speaking softly, with love, to your subconscious
mind. Dreams expose the erroneous nature of your
thinking and they gently suggest corrections. In that
way, your thoughts can change and your experiences can
improve. Of course, your experience of a nightmare
might overshadow its softness, its love, or its divine
purpose.
The language between your Higher Self and your
subconscious mind is different than the language of your
waking state. Dreams use a language of symbols. This
has long been recognized by psychologists, and some
have even tried to come up with a list of universal
symbols. Unfortunately, such lists have only served to
discredit the idea of dream symbols. They are not
universal. While it is not unusual for many people to
experience the same or similar symbols (after all, we are
all connected), most symbols are one's own. It is the
unique language understood between one's Higher Self
and one's subconscious mind.
If your dreams could be understood, they would give
you a clear picture of some of the thoughts you need to
correct to be in tune with God's thought. But how can
they be understood? It's easy. You just ask your Higher
Self to tell you in your waking language what they
mean.

UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Nineteenth Week
Today, do a Creating Formula to remember your

dreams tonight. There is no need to write this formula
out. Just go through each section, receiving help and
guidance from your Higher Self when appropriate.
When you go to bed tonight, put paper and pen
within reach. Then, as soon as you wake up, write
everything you remember about the dream, even if it
seems insignificant: places, buildings, people, time,
action involved, feelings experienced, anything unusual,
what was said, colors, and so on. Write as much as you
remember, and write it quickly. You only have a couple
of minutes before the memory of most dreams fades.
Even if you are sure you'll remember the dream, write it
down. You will probably forget that dream faster than
you think.
Use your quiet period to learn the meaning of the
dream. Simply ask your Higher Self to feed you the
interpretation of the dream. Don't anticipate. You'll be
surprised how different the meaning is compared to what
you would have guessed. Make sure that all aspects of
the dream are interpreted. What did each person in the
dream stand for? What did each building signify? Did
the time have any significance? What did the activity
mean? etc. After you think you have the complete
interpretation, ask, Is that all? Keep going with the
interpretation until you get a "yes" signal. Then go one
step further. Find out what Creating Formula would
hasten the reprogramming called for in the dream. This
is important; it is your chance to take conscious control
of the process.
After your quiet period is finished, write out the
dream interpretation, and on a separate sheet write down
all the symbols used and what they mean. You may find
that the same symbol has a different meaning in different
dreams.
102
Dreaming for Truth
Then finish the daily project by saying the Creating For-

mulas brought to light by the dream analysis. Again,
there's no need to write out these formulas. By now they
are quite natural for you.
During your activity this week, make a conscious
effort to live your life with the new programming you
know has come about by means of the dreams, their
analysis, and the Creating Formulas. Expect new and
wonderful experiences.
103
TWENTIETH WEEK
Expanding Communication to All Life
This week you continue to explore your connection

with everyone and everything.
Love is the basis of everything. In the terms of
modern physics, love is the Unified field. Every atom,
every subatomic particle, every energy field is ultimately
made up of love. Therefore, everything is the same.
We see different expressions of that single
ingredient. Rocks, trees, squirrels, ferns, rivers, clouds,
dogs, and automobiles seem very different, yet they are
fundamentally the same. A clay pot and a clay figure of
a lion may seem to have nothing in common, but we
know they both are expressions of the same clay.
It is the same with all of creation. Everything is a
simple and unique expression of love. This means that
everything has the qualities of love. Everything is
included— not just mankind. God made nothing except
from love.
This one basic Truth carries with it two fundamental
characteristics of everything. First, everything has all the
qualities of God. Second, everything is consciously con-
nected to everything else.
You are now quite comfortable with your God-given and
God-like qualities. You even easily assign those same
qualities to other humans. This was a major step for you
—to see the perfect, loving divinity in those people you
104
thought had somehow hurt you. Nevertheless, you did it,

and your perception has taken a major shift. Today, you
assign those same qualities to everything around you.
The plant you water every week is just like you. It is
light. It is Truth. It is love. It is happiness, joy, and bliss.
It is all-knowing intelligence. It is even everywhere
present. It is perfect. It is peace and gentleness. It is
abundance. And it is nonjudgmental. These are some of
its innate qualities, the same qualities that make up all of
creation.
Of course the plant's perception of its divinity may
not be as complete as yours. As with you, however, its
lack of perception in no way diminishes its truthful
existence.
Consciousness is sometimes a difficult concept to
understand. You tend to think of it only from your own
viewpoint. You see. You feel. You hear. You smell and
touch. If you can't hear, your consciousness seems to be
the other four senses. This view of consciousness is far
too limiting. Consciousness is really the awareness that
comes from your initial creation. It is the awareness of
everything in God's creating thought.
Everyone and everything is created as and with love.
The nature of love is to know itself. Love knowing itself
is consciousness in its purest form. Consciousness is
really simply being aware of your own nature, or being
aware of love.
Now, that is quite a bit of awareness. To be fully
conscious is to be fully aware of love and all it is. That is
no less than being aware of all of God's qualities and
everything in creation.
A more limited consciousness occurs when something is
aware only of itself. Even this simple awareness means
that it is aware of its love nature and is in touch with
everything else in creation. This means that everything
105
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Twentieth Week
else in creation has its effect on it. It also means that

everything in creation has the ability to communicate
with everything else, simply because it can be conscious
of itself.
Your abilities to communicate with everything are
very developed. You've done it all your life, except that
you may not have trusted it. This week you sharpen that
awareness.
As soon as possible today, go into a natural setting—
a park, the countryside, even your own garden or patio.
Choose a plant. It doesn't have to be "beautiful" or
"healthy"—just alive. Sit quietly next to it and focus
your attention on your heart. Let your heart love pulsate
out and engulf the plant.
Now unify with God in the usual way: recite some of
God's qualities and claim them for yourself. In the state
of such unity, unify with the plant. You do this by sim-
ply reciting again those God qualities and acknowledg-
ing that they are yours and the plant's as well.
In this state of unity, you are in tune and ready for
conscious communication with the plant. First, you
speak softly: We are both, made from God's love. We are
both divine. I now send to you that love, and I now
receive your love. Quietly enjoy the feeling of love as
you send it and receive it.
After a few minutes, say, Please, my dear one, tell
me how I can make you more comfortable. Then sit back
and listen, just as you do in all your quiet periods. Since
this is a quiet period, make sure you have the same
safeguards: close your aura to all except your Higher
Self, and have the signal of your Higher Self.
106
You receive communication in your thoughts from

the plant by means of your Higher Self. It might tell you
anything—its life in general, its hardships, its fortunes,
its relationship to other life, or anything. But what you
want to particularly listen for is its communication on
how you can make it more comfortable.
Speak out what you receive, and periodically ask
your Higher Self if what you're saying is an accurate
communication from the plant. Use your "yes" and "no"
signals.
When you finish this exercise, make the plant more
comfortable. Do anything that you can do, such as giv-
ing it more water, moving it to more sunlight, giving it
plant food, thinning it, or spraying it with insecticide.
From the communication you received from the plant,
recite an appropriate Creating Formula for it. Remember,
this is your formula. You're manifesting in the present
tense. This is your experience you're creating, although
the plant is a fortunate beneficiary of your creation.
Do this exercise each day this week. In doing it,
strengthen your understanding of how everything is
made of love, how love is aware of itself, how
everything does have that love awareness or
consciousness, how everything is aware of all love or all
of creation, and how this opens up your communication
with everything.
This basic exercise need not be restricted to plants
after this week. Everything is subject to your listening
and communication at the thought level. That includes
cats, dogs, wild birds, deer, ants, moths, flies, and even
inanimate objects. Everything is love, and therefore
everything is consciousness. Open yourself up now to
this wonderful world of God's creation. Expand your
friendships.
107
TWENTY-FIRST WEEK
Becoming a Master of Creation
You have free will. This can't be overemphasized. It

squarely places responsibility on you for your life and
what you experience. No one can take that away. No one
can usurp your free will unless you willingly give them
that power. Even that is your exercise of free will, and
you can reclaim your power any time.
All that the concept of free will means is that you are
free to think whatever you want and you will manifest
the corresponding experience. Free to think. Will
manifest. Free will.
By now you know you have two choices of the
thoughts you can have. Those you create are one of your
choices. Those that are part of God's grand thought that
created the universe are another choice.
Suppose you are hiking through the mountains and
you come across two lakes to quench your thirst. One is
small, stagnant, with pungent stench. The other is large,
clear, cool, and refreshing. Which one will you drink
from? It is of course your choice.
Drink from the stagnant lake, and your experience will
be uncomfortable, maybe even nauseating. Drink from
the clean, cool lake and immediately be refreshed. Fur-
108
thermore, the clear lake gives you energy, vitality, and

alertness to carry you on your trip quickly. Its invigora-
tion opens up new vistas for you to experience.
That is the choice you have with your thinking.
Choose your limited, fearful, judgmental thoughts, and
you experience discomfort, even illness. But choose the
unbounded sea of God's thought, and you can only
experience God's qualities.
You do not relinquish your free will when you freely
choose to use God's thought. Quite the opposite. When
you choose to think of your fear-ridden creation, you
quickly become its slave. You are bound by the bound-
aries you set up. You experience illness. You experience
loneliness. You experience poverty. You are afraid, and
you distrust others. You feel fragile and vulnerable.
These illusions enslave you. In that condition you cannot
continue on the road of life freely making choices and
freely experiencing the infinite games of love,
abundance, peace, and happiness.
God's thought guarantees your free will. Within that
thought are infinite right choices. They are "right" be-
cause the choice of thought always leads to an
experience of God's qualities.
It is everyone's choice to be happy, to be wealthy, to
be loved, and to have successful projects. That being the
case, there really is only one choice—the choice to dive
into the vat of love called God's thought. In that vat are
infinite choices for you to play and replay the mighty
game of creation with the experience of God's qualities.
Don't jump into God's thought and you will experience
only what you can imagine. Your choices are limited by
109
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Twenty-First Week
your own limited awareness, likely bound up in some

fear. You can easily foresee what kind of experience will
result.
That is the essence of this course. You have learned
to correct your thinking. You do it by being Unified with
your whole Self and receiving its guidance. You now
know a sure way to find out what thoughts need correct-
ing and how to correct them. You have a sure way of
manifesting your true desires.
At this point it is easy to lapse into complacency. Be-
ware. Even with this grand knowledge, you must be ever
vigilant and diligent in your thinking. It becomes more
and more automatic to be tuned into God's infinite
resource of thoughts. However, at this delicate stage, the
voice is like an FM tuner that drifts from its station peri-
odically. Unless you stay on top of that tuner, you may
start hearing another station without even knowing it.
Be diligent in your thinking. Refuse to think
anything that is clearly the illusion of your making. A
sure sign that you are bound up in illusion is that your
thoughts are drifting into the past or into the future.
Neither exists. What you remember and imagine took
place is at best fragments and pieces. It bears little
resemblance to Truth. In all likelihood you're dwelling
on it with some fear that it will or will not repeat itself.
Fearful thoughts can only give an unhappy experience.
The future is just as illusionary. It clearly is your fan-
tasy. Usually your thoughts of the future also have an
element of fear that something will or will not happen.
Thoughts of the future and the past are sure signs that
you are dwelling on an illusion. Get off it immediately.
Change your thinking. Swing back into the present.
110
Listen to the present sounds. Smell what's around you.

Look. It is all exciting. The thoughts of God are only in
the present. There you experience His qualities.
If you notice thoughts of poverty, snap out of it.
Think abundance. Count your blessings. Dwell on all the
things you do have. Feel affluence. Only with these
thoughts can the experience of wealth manifest. And for
heaven's sake, never joke about being poor.
If you notice thoughts of not being loved, snap out of
it. Send out thoughts of love to everyone and everything
around you. Know that you love yourself. Feel that love.
Only with these positive thoughts of love can you
manifest the experience of being loved.
If you notice thoughts of failure in your activity,
snap out of it. It is crucial for success that you think
success. Visualize that you are presently a successful
person in what you're doing. Whatever you're doing at
the moment, know that it is successful, whether it is
washing the car or the dishes, eating a meal, shopping,
or putting together a business deal. For that present
moment, know that you are successful. Get in the habit
of living successful present moments. Be careful and
vigilant not to dwell on the future. Stay only with the
present. The future never comes.
You must now be ever diligent in your thinking.
Whenever you lapse into the illusion, return again and
again. Never tire of returning to God's thought.
Most of the time you know when you're not thinking
correctly. All this week give particular attention to this.
Practice diligence. You have free will to turn your
thoughts and experiences around.
Of course your Higher Self is there for a helping hand,
111
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI / Twenty-First Week
guiding you now with stronger and stronger intuition.

Listen and act on that reliable intuition.
Besides your intuition, you may have noticed some
physical body signal from your Higher Self that tells you
about a negative thought. It is usually uncomfortable,
and when you get it, you just know that what you're
thinking or doing is inappropriate.
All this week during your quiet period, ask your
Higher Self to feed you your "negative signal." Then sit
back and experience that sensation, movement, or
whatever. Become very familiar with it, and allow it to
speak to you in your activity from now on. Whenever
you get it, immediately make the correction in your
thoughts and action that you know is called for.
You are rapidly becoming a true Master of Creation.
Your creation is filled with only success, wealth, health,
love, and peace. All of God's qualities are yours to
experience always.
112
TWENTY-SECOND WEEK
Opening Channels for Truth
Sometimes it might appear to you that your mind

still resists this knowledge. Of course, that isn't
accurate— but it is as if there were two or more parts of
you, each with independent ideas and drives. Your head
is one such part.
For ages your head has been in charge. You've been
educated to use your head. Learning its logic and train-
ing its neurons is given top billing in this world. The
head is king. Jobs that require head-trained skills pay
more. The intelligentsia are an elite. They even live in
their own ghettos.
Suddenly your head is told to take a back seat. As if
that weren't bad enough, you then give power to your
heart. To your head, the heart is merely an emotional
marshmallow. It doesn't have any logic, any systematic
way to memorize, any habits, and any conditioning, yet
you want to put that underling in charge!
An internal struggle appears to ensue. For awhile
you do just fine, following these lessons exactly. You let
your heart guide from its connection to cosmic
intelligence. Then suddenly your head with its training,
logic, and conditioning struggles for its life. What are its
main weapons? Doubts.
113
UNIFIED: COURSE FROM BABAJI / Twenty-Second Week
You go through a period of doubting. You doubt

your signals. You doubt the communication in your
quiet periods. You doubt the wisdom even of this course.
You doubt your manifesting nature. This is the only way
the head thinks it can regain supremacy. It actively
argues. It interjects its own thoughts loudly and clearly.
You can't help but hear. These are the thoughts you're
used to. They've yelled at you for ages. They are
precisely the reason you aren't experiencing God's
qualities all the time.
It is not the heart's nature to argue back. It doesn't
need to. It knows that the little head can never win in the
long run. The heart knows its divine nature, its
immortality, and its connection to the cosmos. Nothing
the head yells can begin to penetrate its hard shell.
Nothing. So the heart just remains peaceful, gentle, and
all-knowing.
Does this sound familiar? It probably does. If the
head has had its way, you no doubt have started and
stopped this course several times before getting to this
point. Maybe you've had to take two weeks to get
through some of the lessons. Or maybe you're one of the
lucky ones and just ignored that babbling child
screaming for attention.
This week witness that head yelling for attention and
know it for what it is. Witness, but don't buy into it.
Eventually, the head will discover its own true blessing.
It is neither being abandoned to oblivion nor being
relegated to a second-class position. Instead, you are
buying it new computer hardware with an open account
on software. With that, anything the head wants to know,
it can have. It won't be restricted to what it could cram
into its education or remember from your few experi-
ences. Then, whenever you ask for your head's help, it
gives with total accuracy. Its success is guaranteed. The
114
heart becomes its best friend—nay, its inseparable

spouse. Actually, it is a royal internal wedding. Like the
helium atom (H), it can't really exist alone. The helium
atom is unstable by itself, so two atoms combine. It is
found in nature as H2. Head (H) and Heart (H) equal H2
as well.
So far this course has emphasized your quiet period
with your Higher Self signal as the form of communica-
tion with your Higher Self. You tune in on the thoughts
you know are coming from your Self. These quiet
periods, however, are not the only way your Self can be
in touch with you. They may not even be the best way
for you. They are, however, the foundation and the
backbone.
If ever you feel that there may be another good way
to communicate with your Higher Self, don't be afraid of
it. Just be sure to use the same safeguards. Always get
your Higher Self signal. It is always there when you're
really communicating with your Higher Self. Always
close your aura to all but your Higher Self, and clear
your aura of uninvited influences whenever needed.
Before you try another form of communication, ask your
Higher Self in the conventional way if it is in your
highest and wisest interest to communicate in that other
way. Use your "yes" and "no" signals, and don't ignore a
"no" answer.
There are many ways to so communicate. The Ouija
board is popular, as are the Tarot cards. Even a standard
deck of playing cards can be used to communicate if the
meaning of the cards is clearly predetermined. A newly
revived method uses Runes. The pendulum is also very
popular.
A light table can be used. Two people put their hands
lightly on the table, facing each other. They close their
115
UNIFIED: COURSE FROM BABAJI / Twenty-Second Week
auras to any uninvited influences, state their high spiritual

purpose, and unify with God. Then they ask that the Higher
Self for one of them communicate by raising the table. Two
of the four legs will rise toward one of them when both are
perfectly Unified with God and each other. It may take a few
minutes of quiet submission. From then on the procedure is
the same as with your quiet times. Three taps of the tables
means "yes." It also means that what you say aloud is correct
communication from the Higher Self. One tap is "no." Both of
you can communicate with the same Higher Self, since you
are, after all, One.
When the table first rises, ask, Is the table clear of any
uninvited influences? Heal any influences until you get a
"yes" answer to that question. Then ask the Higher Self to
identify itself by tapping the letters of its name one at a time.
Throughout the communication, be on guard for any
uninvited influences and heal them as needed.
If you have a loved one who has taken this course diligently
to this point, the two of you can practice your communication
using a light table. You must believe— indeed know—that
the table will rise, or this form of communication will not
work. If your head throws in doubts, you may have to wait
until your head and heart are more integrated.
The main exercise for this week is yet another form of
communication: writing. Every day this week, enter the quiet
period as usual. Then, instead of speaking out the
communication, write it down. This isn't flashy. It isn't
automatic in the sense that you loose control of what the pen
does. You are simply writing out the communication you
have been speaking out or thinking. Notice
116
how smooth and effortless it is. Don't judge what you're

writing. Just write. Read it later for meaning. This is the
way many great manuscripts have been born. It is the
way many great scientific breakthroughs have come. Use
this method often now. It gives you a record for
posterity. How many times have you been surprisingly
impressed with what you've said during your
communication, only to forget it? Using this writing
method, you have a record.
117
TWENTY-THIRD WEEK
Learning from the Masters
God is light. "I am the light of the world," you have

heard it said. Light is just another way of looking at
love, for light is merely love in its first stirrings to
manifest. Light is also that most unifying field of
physics. Light is that universal energy that permeates,
and is, everything. God is light. Light is love.
So are you that light. You are made in the image of
God. You are light—that same light that is God. That
same light is everything. That same light is love.
Only in this small tiny bit of you called "physical" do
you not appear to be light, even though in Truth even
your physical body is light. Your physical body is indeed
a very small part of your being. It is a beautiful vehicle
for this physical plane. It locks you into time and space.
It is because of the physical body that you are here now
—here and now, this time and this place. It is here and
now that you can learn that your true identity is God's
light.
Your body is a perfect expression of the divine on this
plane. Its nervous system is your "on board" computer
hardware. Through it you grasp all the love and good-
ness (Godness) that surround you. Through your physi-
118
cal body you learn to transcend the very reason of the

body—the here and now, time and space.
In reality you are a body of light without boundaries.
Yet in that body of light you are unique and an
individual manifestation of God (Good). At the center of
your being you are a more concentrated form of light,
but your own light permeates all of creation.
That body of light is your Higher Self. It is more bril-
liant, more stunning, more beautiful, and brighter than
you can imagine with physical eyes. It has colors not yet
perceived. It is truly the full glory that is God and all that
is you. God Himself is no more beautiful and no more
extensive, because you are made in the image of God.
That light is reality. Anything perceived at less than the
full value of that light is at most a reflection of it. When
we see a glimpse of the reflection, our lives change. That
is the purpose of this course—to perceive at first that
reflection.
Great telescopes of the world scan the heavens
for Truth about the cosmos. They use great mirrors that
reflect and amplify the light of the sky. The reflection of
a small star becomes volumes in the annals of
astronomy.
It is the same for you. You search for your light,
which is vaster than the heavens. When you see a
reflection of just one ray, you are exhilarated and
renewed. That one reflected ray is enough to dispel your
darkness. It is enough for you to taste your Self. It is
enough to introduce Truth. It is enough to bring to you
the experience of God's qualities.
By the systematic and daily practice of these lessons,
you have begun to see the light of your Self. Even if just
119
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI /Twenty-Third Week
a reflection, it is a glimpse of what is truly you, what is

your nature. This course is the telescope for your ever-
expanding awareness of your heaven.
Your light is light—weightless. It defies gravity. It
floats and permeates everything. It guarantees your One-
ness with All. Even your awareness of one ray of your
light is enough to tell your whole story. Just one ray of
the perfect laser light tells its whole story, and just one
section of a hologram gives its whole picture. This
natural phenomenon repeats itself for you. Know just
one of your light-rays and you know your whole Self.
That one ray has within it all Truth, all knowledge, all of
God's perfection, all love, and all of God's qualities.
Many of God's children know their true nature and
live the light. Some never lost contact with it. They
never separated themselves from their source. Others
have returned to their true state in much the same way
that you are returning. Whatever their history, they are
helping you in every way you let them.
There are many names for these souls: Masters, The
Enlightened, The Holiness, Avatars, and Highly Evolved
Souls, to name a few. The important thing is to remem-
ber that they are the same as you. Of course, their aware-
ness is complete, for they know that they are bodies of
light made in God's image. They live their full potential.
It is very important to grasp that: they are the same
as you. Some have a physical human body and are here
and now to help you. Others are not here and now with a
physical body. They simply guide and teach from a
different level, where you also exist.
There are thousands and thousands of such masters
helping mankind now. They have taken on the burden of
120
bringing mankind back to wholeness—of making all of

mankind Unified with mankind's Higher Selves.
The names of some of these Masters may be
familiar. Jesus, Muhammad, the Buddha, and Babaji are
a few. There are also a whole host of Masters now on
earth with followers. Some are well known. Others are
known only to a few. In every instance, their role is the
same: to lead mankind gently to divinity.
These Masters are living fully with their bodies of
light. Their presence (with or without a body) brings an
upliftment. Love pulsates everywhere. Joy and happiness
drown out problems. Enlivened energy exudes. It is no
wonder people flock to be around the Masters who have
a physical body.
This week's lesson is to expand your communication
to include one or two of these Masters. This is nothing
new to you. You have been guided and prodded by them
all your life. No doubt they are the reason that you found
this course appealing.
The procedure for communicating with a Master is
the same as that for communicating with your Higher
Self. During your quiet period, ask your Higher Self if
there is a Master who wants to communicate with you. If
you get a "no" signal, try later, when the conditions may
be more favorable. When you get a "yes," ask the Master
to feed you his or her name. Listen. When you think you
have the name, ask your Higher Self, using the "yes" or
"no" signals. You may also ask to have the name spelled
for you, using the movement of your "yes" and "no" sig-
nals to tap out the alphabet. The name may be as familiar
as Jesus, or it may be totally foreign to you. Then ask the
Master to give you a signal. Sit comfortably and relaxed
121
UNIFIED: A COURSE FROM BABAJI /Twenty-Third Week
and wait for it. This is the same procedure you used in
getting your Higher Self signal. It can be a movement, a
sensation, a vision, a sound, or anything that is involun-
tary and easily recognized by you. Check that signal
with your Higher Self and your "yes" and "no" signals.
When you have a clear, verified signal, you can
communicate. Speak out what comes to you, checking
periodically with your "yes" and "no" that what you are
speaking out is accurate. Continue until you feel that the
communication is over and that the Master says it is
over, again using your "yes" and "no" signals.
Do this every day this week. You may make contact
with more than one, but it doesn't matter. All the Masters
are wholly One with light and love. They all speak the
same Truth.
One word of caution is always appropriate. Have
your Higher Self signal at the beginning of your quiet
period and throughout the communication until the
Master's signal takes its place. Also, employ all the other
safeguards against uninvited influences.
122
TWENTY-FOURTH
WEEK Reviewing
Throughout this week, continue to practice what

is now a constant habit. Send love and light to
everyone and everything that comes your way as
you think of it. Particularly send love when you run
across any distress or negativity. Continue to close
your aura to all except your Higher Self when you
go into crowds. Clear your aura of uninvited
influences whenever you get the uninvited-influence
signal or a strong thought to do so. In the evening
before going to sleep alternate between your two
practices of unifying with God and sending love to
whoever comes into your mind. Of course, you will
continue your daily quiet periods. These are always
to be started properly to guarantee safety. At first,
always receive whatever communication your
Higher Self wants to give. Then ask any questions
and follow with any special instructions for the day.
In this review week, you begin and end each day
with the special prayer. Read it a couple of times
slowly and meaningfully. Be aware of your heart
energy and let its meaning pulsate from your heart
to the whole world.
123
UNIFIED: COURSE FROM BABAJI / Twenty-Fourth Week
First Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for creating me

as a creator in your image. I thank you for giving me
free will to experience whatever I choose to ex-
perience. I now claim the wisdom to be in tune with
my whole Self and your thought. I now act with the
guidance of all of nature to manifest my desires. I
thank you also for giving me the wisdom now to help
keep the auras of my loved ones free from uninvited
influences. I am grateful to be yours.
During your quiet period today, check the auras of

your loved ones. Use your "yes" and "no" signals and
simply ask, Is it wise for me to check (name) for uninvited
influences? Clear each influence until you get a "yes"
signal. Then close their auras to all except their own
Higher Selves. This exercise can be done whenever you
feel it is necessary, but today you make a special point of
it.
Second Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you that my own

connection with Truth now uplifts the whole world. It
is my desire that all of mankind rises up to enlight-
enment with me. I pray that everyone recognizes his
own Self-awareness and gains Self-acceptance, for I
realize I cannot be truly free until all that I am One
with are also free.
124
Reviewing
Today after your quiet period, do a Creating Formula

for the Self-acceptance of one or two of your loved ones.
Remember that it is your experience that you are
manifesting, even though they are recipients of your
desires. If you have someone's permission, you can also
do a Creating Formula today for a specific problem
someone is dealing with. Be sure to keep your Creating
Formulas in the present tense.
Third Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for my vast sub-

conscious mind, which automatically brings to me
the experiences I have told it I want. I recognize my
perfection at every level. Even in the ignorance of
what I think I want to manifest, I thank you for being
with me and gently teaching me to be in tune with
your thought. I thank you for my dreams, as one way
to reach and teach my beautiful subconscious mind.
Ask your Higher Self to analyze a dream for you.

Then recognize its message and do whatever you can do
to make the changes in your thoughts the dream calls
for. You can use this dream analysis technique as often
as you like. It is a valuable tool for helping to
"reprogram" your subconscious mind.
125
Fourth Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for my connection

of love with everyone and everything. I thank you for
my all-knowing intelligence that brings that
connection to a living reality. I spread the love I feel
to all of creation and each creature. I know our con-
nection is felt by everything else in creation.
Today, do your quiet period in a place of natural

beauty. Pick a plant, and at the appropriate time during
your quiet period unify with, and feel your connection
to, the plant. Communicate with it through your heart's
love. Be guided in that communication by your Higher
Self, and check with your signals the accuracy of your
communication. If the plant asks for any help, give it.
Feel this unity with all of creation wherever you go
today.
Fifth Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for giving me

your thought for my creations. I thank you that your
thought can only bring me the experiences you know
—joy, abundance, energy, knowledge, and more. I
thank you for the beautiful present, where you al-
ways are, and where I can always and only ex-
perience your love. And my dear father, I thank you
for the gentle nudge you give me when my own
thoughts are bound to lead me to suffering.
126
Reviewing
In your quiet period today, rehearse your signal for

negative thoughts. There's no need to overdo, though.
Just practice it enough to feel the signal clearly.
Throughout the day be aware of that signal's presence
whenever it comes. Stop and think. Then change your
thought and any related courses of action.
Sixth Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for the knowledge

of this course. I desire to recognize my wholeness
without resistance. Speak Truth to me in any form I
can hear. Bring to my awareness what that form is. I
thank you for your intelligence, which is mine. I now
use it and share it.
For the communication with your Higher Self today, use

the technique of writing it out. Periodically check with
your Higher Self that what you have written is correct.
Seventh Day
Dear God, my creator, I thank you for the one cre-

ation of which I am. I thank you for making all of its
many diverse expressions connected with me, that I
am never alone and separate. And I thank you for the
love of your thought, so that those who are in tune
with that thought can feed me Truth and
127
guidance. I open myself up to your Truth, as brought

to me by my Self-realized friends.
In your quiet period today, communicate with one of

the Masters you have a signal for. Receive whatever
guidance is appropriate and ask whatever questions you
wish, using the same format for questions and for com-
munication you use with your Higher Self. Enjoy the
unique form of love energy you're bound to feel.
128
Unified
This is the beginning. You have experienced being

Unified. It comes in its full glory with a feeling of bliss
and security. Then suddenly, as if carried away by a
breeze, it vanishes. Your old thoughts come back. Some
fear, a little anger, and a feeling of separateness
overcomes you. Then that disappears, and the feeling of
being Unified once again surfaces.
That is the expected pattern in these early days.
Gradually, the feeling of being Unified lasts longer, and
the lapses into despair are fewer and fewer.
One thing is certain: you have the tools now to be
Unified with your Higher Self and all of creation. The
continued use of these tools every day can only bring
you permanent experiences of God's qualities. They can
only bring to you the concrete experience that you are
light and not just a physical body. They can only bring
the feeling of love to flow to and through you, for that is
to feel your Self.
The daily practice of these tools can only bring
happiness, a joy for life, and that inner sweetness of
bliss. Those are God's true intentions for you, and when
you are Unified, opposite emotions are impossible.
These tools can only bring you thoughts of Truth and all-
knowing intelligence. That is your foundation for per-
129
feet right action. Spontaneously you think and do what is

most beneficial for you and all mankind.
Your true nature of being unbounded by space and
time dawns on you. You are literally everywhere
present, as is God. Gradually, the straitjacket of time
dissolves. Even your feeling of belonging in a particular
place is displaced by a cosmic, universal Oneness. Then
you experience all of creation at will.
These tools bring out your perfection. On this physi-
cal level you manifest perfect health. You live your per-
fection and can easily see that same perfection in
everyone and everything.
Those tools are your source for peace, for your
Higher Self is peace. A gentleness becomes your nature
without sacrificing your dynamism. Peace of mind is the
prize that everyone without it would gladly pay their
entire earthly fortune for. It is yours now by virtue of
your being aware of who and what you are.
These tools easily bring your abundance. Ask and
you shall receive. How simple it is now to ask what is
truly your highest good and to receive it! Nature is
abundant, even extravagant. You bask in that
extravagance as an expression of God's love.
You can now live a life of forgiveness and
nonjudgment, as God Himself does. Knowing what
forgiveness really is changes your whole perception of
what's happening around you. You are in charge of your
own experiences. You have now claimed your highest
good. Now only experiences of joy can come. There is
nothing to forgive. The past is gone.
By these tools you realize your own Self to be a
unique and individual expression of love. You view
everyone else
130
Unified
as that. Love can only see love. Judging love now makes
no sense. So you find yourself accepting and
appreciative of all of love's expressions. Even the so-
called "sins" of others are seen as merely correctible
mistakes in thinking. No "sin" is big enough to change
anyone's basic nature. No judgment can change it, either.
This is where you are—on the threshold of these ex-
periences of God's qualities. Slip in and out of the expe-
rience for a while. Then suddenly realize that you are
forever returned to your divinity, which you never lost.
These tools are more than a gift to you—now they
are your responsibility. Use them as if the future of the
world depended upon you. It does. Your experience of
being Unified infuses more than joy into your heart. It
injects God's qualities into the basic fiber of everyone.
Everyone and everything is connected. You cannot
experience bliss without sending a thrill of bliss to all of
creation. Everyone is affected. The feeling of being
Unified is very slippery. It offers no resistance. It slips
and slides everywhere as you radiate it from your heart.
Your responsibility to the world is enormous. Your
feeling of being Unified is the only thing you can do to
bring sanity to the earth. Nothing else you can do will
have any lasting effect. Nothing else will make such a
profound contribution. Nothing else. By simply being
your Self you can save the world from disaster.
If there ever could be a "sin" that deserved judgment
(which there isn't), it would be to ignore these tools now
that you have them. It is tantamount to dying of thirst
while camped on the shores of a freshwater lake.
Your tools are simple. First, communicate with your
Higher Self in a quiet period daily. Start the communi-
131
cation in the exact step-by-step procedure, and always

have your Higher Self signal. The method is easy and
precise. At first, receive wisdom from your Higher Self.
Then ask questions that you've established are in your
highest and wisest interest to ask. Use the quiet period to
find out what is in your highest interest to manifest.
With the assistance of your Higher Self, say your
Creating Formulas until your desires manifest.
The quiet period and the Creating Formulas are now
your main tools each day. Let them find their place in
your daily routine.
Second, you have other habits now that mustn't be
forgotten. Close your aura to all except your Higher Self
whenever you go into a crowd or any negativity. Clear
your aura whenever you get an uninvited-influence sig-
nal or whenever you have symptoms of an influence (ir-
ritability, exhaustion, anger, moodiness, etc.). You also
want to send thoughts of love to anyone or anything
when you think of it, particularly if there is a problem,
accident, fight, or other negativity.
Third, don't forget the gentle techniques before going
to sleep. Send love to those people who pop into your
thoughts, or unify with God's qualities. These two prac-
tices dissolve any accumulated tension of the day and
prepare the next day for the feeling of being Unified.
That's it. That is all there is to this basic course. You
may use any of the other tools we examined any time
you want. However, these three steps are your program
from now on for being Unified.
Welcome home.

APPENDIX
Recapitulation of Essential Practices

Appendix
Quiet Periods
Each quiet period begins with these seven simple steps:
1. Sit comfortably, eyes closed, and focus on the

love pulsating from your heart to all of creation.
2. Clear your aura of all uninvited influences and

send light to all thought forms around you.
4. Unify with the qualities of God by thinking of

some of God's qualities and recognizing those qualities
as your own.
5. State the purpose of the particular quiet period

(such as "to practice communicating with my Higher
Self," "to receive knowledge that is appropriate at this
time," "to have revealed where my thinking is not in tune
with God's thought," etc.).
6. Receive the signal from your Higher Self and

keep that signal with you for the entire period.
7. Speak out the communication given to you in

your thoughts by your Higher Self.
A quiet period is ended with two simple steps:
1. Thank your Higher Self and God for the commu-

nication of Truth you received during the quiet period.
137
Appendix
Protecting the Aura
Whenever you go into crowds of people or go into a

negative atmosphere, such as sickness, an accident, or
near a troubled person, close your aura against adverse
influences with these words:
/ close my aura to all except my Higher Self.
When you receive your uninvited-influence signal,

when you have a very strong thought that you may have
an uninvited influence, or when you feel moody,
irritable, exhausted, pained, angry, or any other
emotion/feeling that is inappropriate, clear your aura of
any uninvited influences with the following words (after
you say the words, use your "yes" and "no" signals to
find out if there are any other uninvited influences that
need to be cleared from your aura; if so, repeat the
words):
To all uninvited influences in my aura, I send each of

you love and light.
You are each whole and healed.
You are each created as love and light, and you are
still love and light.
You each feel no pain now, and you are not afraid.
138
Appendix
You each have a perfect place to go, and I ask my

Higher Self, (name) , to take you there now.
Each of you, go in peace.
After all uninvited influences have been cleared,

send love and light to any thought forms around you
with the following words:
/ send love and light to any thought forms around me.
139
Appendix
Forgiving Words
When you feel a grudge against anyone who you

think has trespassed against you or hurt you in any way,
think the substance of these words:
/ have made a mistake in my thinking to allow you to

seemingly hurt me. I recognize that you are merely
doing what I invited, and that in reality neither you
nor anyone else can hurt me. I am perfect now,
always have been, and always will be. You can't
change that. I now recognize that life is for giving
love to you.
An abbreviated version can be:
/ send you love from my heart, and I forgive you,

knowing it is impossible for you to infringe on my
perfection.
140
Appendix
Daily Practices
In addition to Quiet Periods and Creating Formulas,

daily practices include:
1. Close your aura to all except your Higher

Self whenever you go into crowds, near illness, or
into any negativity.
2. Clear your aura whenever you receive your

uninvited-influence signal, whenever you have a
very strong thought to do so, and whenever you feel
symptoms of the influence (such as irritability,
exhaustion, temper, or moodiness), and then send
love and light to any thought forms around you.
3. Send love from your heart to anyone and any-

thing throughout the day when you think of it, and
feel that love actually return to you.
4. Send the thought of forgiveness whenever a

grudge thought comes up, or whenever it appears to
you that someone has hurt you or is hurting you.
In the evening before you go to sleep, alternate

between these two practices:
1. Unify with God by thinking of God's

qualities and recognizing them as your own.
2. Send love and forgiveness to your friends,

family, and everyone or anything that comes to your
mind.

Example for Self-Acceptance
1. God and
God is love. God is light—Truth. God is happiness, joy,

and bliss. God is all-knowing intelligence. God is
everywhere present. God is perfection. God is peace and
gentleness. God is infinite energy. God is abundance.
God is nonjudgmental.
142
Appendix
2. I
I am made in the image of God. I am made with those

same qualities that God has. I am one with God.
Therefore, I am love. I am light—Truth. I am happiness,
joy, and bliss. I am all-knowing intelligence. I am also
everywhere present. I am perfection. I am peace and
gentleness. I am infinite energy. I am abundance. I am
nonjudgmental.
3. Claim and Accept
I claim my Self-acceptance. And I accept my Self-

acceptance.
4. Thoughts with
I heal and release thoughts that I am bound to a body. I

heal and release thoughts that I am insignificant and
unworthy of God's gifts. I release and heal thoughts that
I am ugly and sickly. I know that I am everywhere
present, free, beautiful, perfect, and worthy of all my
Father has for me. I now also release and heal all
thoughts I may have that interfere with my Self-
acceptance, known or unknown, conscious or
unconscious. (Deal with some specific thoughts.) My
thoughts are now one with, the same as, and in tune
with, God's thought.
143
Appendix
5. Forgiveness and
I recognize that no one can hurt me without my in-

vitation. Knowing that, I forgive everyone who has
seemingly ever hurt or trespassed against me. I now
realize that there is in Truth nothing to forgive. My heart
is in a state of forgiveness—a state of forgiving love.
(Deal with specific people and situations.)
6. Thanks
I thank God for my Self-acceptance.
7. Amen
I release this claim to God and the natural laws of

creation. My claim is now created. That is the nature of
natural law. Amen.
