Every day that we awaken from sleep, it is by Grace. To take a breath and to be alive is not by an act of personal ego will, but because of Grace. Some people may argue that the will of their personal egos caused them to survive some difficult time in their lives, but it was not-that was only the illusion. In truth we survive by Grace; it was not yet our cosmic time to surrender our physical existence in the Ultimate Cosmic Scheme of Things, where nothing is by chance or coincidence, and where all is perfectly orchestrated in a harmonious cosmic melody.
So often the phrase, "by the Grace of God," is used by people, but what is its meaning? Its obvious meaning is that something has happened or will happen because Universal Presence or God allowed it to happen or will allow it to happen. Grace then could be thought of as the Will of God-not the personal ego's will-having supreme or ultimate power over all things and human existence, and even life itself.

"Timeless Wisdom" August Audio Releases
Dr. Paul Leon Masters' Practical Wisdom
for Daily Living that is Truly Timeless
Since 1959, Dr. Masters had conducted full time research and teaching into the exploration of consciousness, synthesizing results from research experience with science, psychology and the mystical teachings of Christ and others. This is the basis and foundation of the life improvement instruction and consciousness exploration practice that he shared with those seeking a more enlightened spirituality with which to live their lives. We are now in the privileged process of releasing hundreds of these "Timeless Wisdom" lectures that haven't been available since they were first recorded, dating all the way back to the early 1970's.
