The beginning of each New Year symbolizes the possibility of a new beginning or an improvement over what was. It can be a dream or a hope of what can be. To one who is intimately involved with one's soul in a physical sense, it can be the anticipation that Divine Presence will somehow touch one's life with increased blessings of some kind in the New Year.
To most people, a New Year does indeed present an opportunity for positive expectation, that somehow, in some way, the possibility exists that things will be better. In order for such dreams and wishes to become realities, the mind must adopt an attitude and state of consciousness that is expectant of improvement, both inwardly and outwardly, and willing to take the action necessary to give energy to one's thoughts in the day-to-day world of one's environment.

Founder, Dr. Paul Leon Masters' Weekly Mystical Insights
Initiate Positive Changes in Your Life Through Creative Visualization and the Spiritual Power of Your Mind
Over the course of his lifetime of service, Dr. Paul Leon Masters presented a large number of inspirational lectures during his
Sunday services. Almost all of them began with a meditation or healing treatment, after which he presented a teaching that included an affirmation. Many listeners commented on the healing transmission of his lectures and later asked for copies of the affirmation sheets. The content of this book consists of the affirmations that Dr. Masters presented in his inspirational lectures.
Affirmations are positive thought statements with a spiritual or mystical base, worded in such a manner as to keep our conscious mind attuned to our higher God Mind. It is interesting to note that affirmations can be considered mystical prayer if they have been inspired and intuitively created by God's Presence within you.
Affirmations create Oneness with the God Power in your mind, and allow the God Power to flow through and into your daily activities. They are used to keep the conscious or mental part of the mind attuned and working with the inner truth of God's Presence. Used daily, they have the potential to dramatically change the lives of thousands of people.
The conscious use of these affirmations will affect your immediate conscious attitude during the day, making you more positive. At the same time, it will condition a subconscious acceptance of a new, successful you, which will make it easier for your God Mind to channel through your subconscious the intuition and power you need to make your life successful.
Absolute Oneness is the Absolute Relationship. In such Oneness there is no isolation or apartness. Identity is not so concerned about being loved as it is with loving.
When it comes to health and healing, indeed Silence is Golden, for it is the Sacred Silence of Universal God-Presence working to maintain or restore the health of one's body.
