On waking in the morning, turn your thoughts to the realization that ‘I and the Father are One’. Gain a conviction of your oneness with the universal Life, the universal Mind, the universal Consciousness.
As soon as you begin to feel the infinity of goodness stirring within you, or a sense of peace, or a surge of divine Life, then get out of bed and make your physical preparations for the day.
The wave is one with the ocean, indivisible and inseparable from the whole ocean. All that the ocean is, the wave is, and all the power, all the energy, all the strength, all the life, all the substance of the ocean is expressed in every wave. The wave has all that lies beneath it, for the wave really is the ocean as the ocean is the wave, inseparable, indivisible, one.
This means that your interest is the interest of every individual in the world, it means that their interest is your interest, it means that we have no interest apart from each other.
Whenever you leave one place to go to another, pause for a moment to realize that the Presence has gone before you to prepare the way, and that the same divine presence remains behind you as a benediction to all who pass that way. In realizing the divine Presence ahead of you and behind you, you will find yourself to be the Light of the world.
—Joel S. Goldsmith, Collected Essays
Meditation, excerpts

I turn within... I am not turning up to the sky - I am not turning anywhere outside of my own being - I am not looking around for holy temples or holy teachers or holy books. I am turning within.
Here am I. The very seat and source of God is within me, the abiding place of God. God is within the inner sanctuary of my own being. I am not seeking for my life, what I shall eat or what I shall drink. I am not seeking for health, employment or opportunities. I am seeking Thy kingdom, Thy grace.
—Joel Goldsmith

We are yet to become aware of the fact that we embrace our world within ourselves; and that all that exists as persons, places, and things live only within our own consciousness.
—Joel Goldsmith
.
The world, conceived by the finite mind as a multiplicity and diversity of objects made out of dead, inert stuff called ‘matter’, comes into apparent existence when consciousness ignores the reality of itself, and it vanishes out of apparent existence when consciousness wakes up to or recognises itself.
—Rupert Spira
The Nature of Consciousness
.
Consciousness is consciousness of something.
This means that transcendence is the constitutive structure of consciousness; that is, that consciousness emerges supported by a being which is not itself.
—Jean-Paul Sartre
