James Allen, página 5 de 18

This is the extended annotation including an essay called "James Allen: A prophet Of Meditation". We cannot alter external things, nor shape other people to our liking, nor mould the world to our wishes but we can alter internal things,-our desires, passions, thoughts,-we can shape our liking to other people, and we can mould the inner world of our own mind in accordance with wisdom, and so reconcile it to the outer world if men and things. The turmoil of the world we cannot avoid, but the disturbances of mind we can overcome. The duties and difficulties of life claim our attention, but we can rise above all anxiety concerning them. Surrounded by noise, we can yet have a quiet mind; involved in responsibilities, the heart can be at rest; in the midst of strife, we can know the abiding peace. The twenty pieces which comprise this book, unrelated as some of them are in the letter, will be found to be harmonious in the spirit, in that they point the reader towards those heights of self-knowledge and self-conquest which, rising above the turbulance of the world, lift their peaks where the Heavenly Silence reigns.

Metaphysical Bible students recognize in the Gospel of John a certain spiritual quality that is not found in the other Gospels. Although this is not true of all Bible readers, it may be said that those who look for the mystical find it in the language of this book. The book is distinctive in this respect and is so successful in setting forth metaphysical truths that little interpretation is necessary. Only in a few instances does the original writing conceal the deep truths that the student seeks to discern. Written language is at best a reflection of inner ideas, and even though a teacher couples ideas and words as adroitly as Jesus does, elucidation is sometimes difficult.

In "Eight Pillars of Prosperity," James Allen reveals exact qualities we must meditate upon in order to achieve lasting success. Prosperity rests on eight pillars: Energy, Economy, Integrity, System, Sympathy, Sincerity, Impartiality, and Self-reliance. "A business built up on the faultless practice of all these principles," Allen writes, "would be so firm and enduring as to be invincible. Nothing could injure it; nothing could undermine its prosperity, nothing could interrupt its success." This is a "Book of Virtues" for adults, distilling the wisdom of the ages in one compact volume. The moral virtues are the foundation and support of prosperity as they are the soul of greatness. They endure for ever, and all the works of man which endure are built upon them. Without them there is neither strength, stability, nor substantial reality, but only ephemeral dreams. To find moral principles is to have found prosperity, greatness, truth, and is therefore to be strong, valiant, joyful and free.

El corazón espiritual del hombre es el Corazón del universo y, cuando encuentra éste, el hombre halla la fuerza para conseguirlo todo. Encuentra allí también la sabiduría para ver las cosas como son. Encuentra la paz divina. En el centro del ser del hombre está la música que ordena las estrellas: la Armonía Eterna. Quien encuentra la dicha, se encuentra a sí mismo. Abandona todo deseo discordante, todo pensamiento inarmónico, todo hábito y acto carentes de amor, y así descubre la gracia, la belleza y la armonía que constituyen la esencia indestructible de su propio ser. Los hombres vuelan de credo en credo, y se encuentran con el desasosiego. Viajan por muchas tierras, y descubren el desengaño. Se construyen bellas mansiones, plantan agradables jardines, y cosechan aburrimiento e incomodidad. El hombre no encuentra descanso ni satisfacción hasta que se recuesta en la Verdad que lleva en su interior. Mientras no construye la mansión interior de la conducta intachable no halla la dicha incorruptible y sin fin. Una vez alcanzada, la infunde a toda su actividad y a todas sus pertenencias exteriores. Quien desee tener paz deberá ejercitar el espíritu de la Paz. Quien quiera encontrar amor que se cobije en el espíritu del Amor. Quien quiera escapar del sufrimiento que deje de infligirlo. Quien quiera hacer cosas nobles para la humanidad que cese de hacerse cosas crueles a sí mismo. Basta con que excave en la mina de su propia alma para encontrar todo lo necesario para construir cualquier cosa que desee, y allí hallará también la Piedra básica sobre la que podrá construir con total seguridad.

La meditación espiritual es el camino hacia la Divinidad. Es la escalera mística que lleva de la tierra al cielo, del error a la Verdad, del dolor a la paz. Todos los santos la han escalado, todo pecador debe, antes o despues, llegar a ella, y todo cansado peregrino que da la espalda a su yo y al mundo, y dirige su rostro con resolucion hacia el Hogar del Padre, debe posar sus pies en sus escalones dorados. Sin su ayuda no puedes crecer hacia el estado divino, a parecerte a lo divino, hacia la divina paz, y las glorias inmutables y las alegrias impolutas de la Verdad se mantendran escondidas de ti. La meditacion, en el sentido espiritual, es el secreto de toda vida y todo conocimiento espiritual. Todos los profetas, sabios y salvadores se convierten en lo que son por el poder de la meditacion. Buda medito en la Verdad hasta que pudo decir: "Yo soy la Verdad". Jesus reflexiono sobre la Divina inmanencia hasta que por fin pudo declarar: "El Padre y yo somos Uno". La meditacion centrada en las realidades divinas es la esencia misma y el alma de la oracion. Es la extension silenciosa del alma hacia lo Eterno. La mera oracion petitoria, sin meditacion, es un cuerpo sin alma, y no tiene poder para elevar la mente y el corazon por encima del pecado y de la afliccion.

The unceasing change, the insecurity, and the misery of life make it necessary to find some basis of certainty on which to rest if happiness and peace of mind are to be maintained. All science, philosophy, and religion are some many efforts in search of this permanent basis; all interpretations on the universe, whether from the material or spiritual side, are so many attempts to formulate some unifying principle or principles by which to reconcile the fluctuations and contradictions of life.
