The Discovery
The nature of the human organism and its relationship to the outside
world requires that you receive and process information in a sound manner in order to acquire
wealth, enjoy power, live happily and experience romantic love. Accurate
integrations of your perceptions into higher level concepts,
which become your beliefs, are necessary for you to apply reason,
which is your method of survival.
Belief
A belief is "any guiding principle that
provides a sense of certainty about meaning and direction in life." Your beliefs are
your organized filters to your perception of the world. Your beliefs allow you to assign
meanings to the events you experience. It is important that those beliefs be accurate.
Only accurate beliefs will provide you with the necessary guidance to select the
optimum survival choices. Inaccurate beliefs, myths, misguide you
and are always harmful over the long-term. Mysticism, by its very
nature, will ultimately cheat you out of your wealth, power, happiness and romantic love.
Your Philosophy of Life
The sum total of your beliefs form your philosophy of life.
This is your integrated view of existence. When your
integrated view of existence is based on the acceptance of mysticism, the
acceptance or promotion of myths, you end up experiencing problems where none
actually exist. When your philosophy is based on accurate
assessments of the reality in which you find yourself, you find yourself integrating
it, acting on it and being it.
The Eternal Way
Follow The Eternal Way and you will see how easy it is to acquire
wealth, power, happiness and romantic love. The Eternal Way is the "golden
thread" that winds its way through all religions, philosophies, self-help books,
success seminars, and self-esteem groups.
Step One
The first step of The Eternal Way has to do with spiritual
matters. You need to make a decision regarding religion. What is religion? Is
it necessary for your survival, both before death and after death? Which religion is the
best one for you? Make a decision and stick to it. Learn as much as you can about the
religion you choose, and don’t be bashful about leaving it for another one if you
feel that the one you choose isn’t giving you enough answers. However, don’t
make the mistake of thinking that the river is the river bed. Many times the trouble
isn’t with your religion as much as it is with the people you have around you
presenting their views of your religion to you.
Once you have made a decision regarding religion, you are ready to take
step two of The Eternal Way. The following discussion is presented to help you understand
the importance of religion.
