When you are first taught to do anything, whether it is driving a car, learning to swim or learning to play a musical instrument, you are very aware of every movement, every action you make. You make mistakes but you never give up. You rectify those mistakes and keep on trying until you have mastered whatever it is. Then you find you no longer have to think of everymovement; you do it automatically; you flow with it and enjoy it because it is no longer an effort. So it is with this spiritual life. As it becomes a part of you, you no longer have to be reminded to be consciously aware of Me and of My divine presence, because you are aware of it. You no longer have to get into tune with Me because you are in tune. It is all as natural to you as breathing. In this state you know that I AM in you, and you are in Me, and we are one.

　　當我第一次被教授任何事情時，不論它是開車、學習游泳，或者是學習演奏一樣樂器，我對我的一舉一動都會非常地有意識。我犯了錯但從不放棄。我改正那些錯誤，並繼續嘗試直到我完全掌握了那件事。

　　然後我會發現我不再需要想著每一刻；我自動地去完成它；我與它一起流動，並享受它，因為它不再是費力的事情。

　　靈性生活也是這樣。當它成為我的一部分時，我就不再需要被提醒去有意識地覺察到上天及上天神性的臨在，因為我已經覺察到了它。我不再需要去與上天相一致，因為我已經是一致的了。

　　所有這一切對我而言都像呼吸一樣自然。在這樣的狀態下，我知道我中有上天，上天中有我，我們合而為一。
