We are enslaved by anything we do not consciously see. We are freed by conscious perception.

Vernon Howard

What you really want for yourself is always trying to break through, just as a cooling breeze flows through an open window on a hot day. Your part is to open the windows of your mind.
VERNON HOWARD

Always Break Mind Through Trying
A cheery relaxation is man’s natural state, just as nature itself is relaxed. A waterfall is concerned only with being itself, not with doing something it considers waterfall-like.
VERNON HOWARD

Consider Fall Men Mind
We are slaves to whatever we don’t understand.

Slave Understanding Whatever
Do not mistake desire for love. Desire leaves home in a frantic search for one gratification after another. Love is at home with itself.
VERNON HOWARD

Great Knowledge Power Self
We must become acquainted with our emotional household: we must see our feelings as they actually are, not as we assume they are. This breaks their hypnotic and damaging hold on us.
VERNON HOWARD

Assuming Emotional Feelings
All we have to do is to receive what we are given…We are given the naturalness to love someone, to be calm in crisis, to ignore self-defeating suggestions, to be pleasant, forgiving, tender, helpful, unworried, brave, energetic.
VERNON HOWARD

Brave Crisis Giving Self Suggest
The genuinely spiritual person is one who has lost all desire to be anyone but exactly who he is, without labels and without apologies. He is what he is and that’s all there’s is to it. Such a man is undivided, uncomplicated and contented.
VERNON HOWARD

Don’t try to live. Let yourself be lived.

See human nonsense as nonsense and save years of trying to make sense out of it.
VERNON HOWARD

Nonsense Trying Years
Examine every action and reaction. Do you act naturally or do you act because you feel compelled? If you feel compelled, stop. Compulsion is slavery. Example: Refuse to go along with the crowd.
VERNON HOWARD

Completed Examine Naturally Refuse
No one can tell you what is right for you except yourself. So start telling yourself what to do. If you blunder for ten years while thinking for yourself, that is rich treasure when compared with living these ten years under the mental domination of another.
