"The world is not as it appears to the busy, troubled mortal. Behind every appearance--overspreading everything--is a pure and perfect harmony. There is an unseen Perfection-before-words permeating everything. Concrete and tangible confirmation of this fact awaits everyone willing to acknowledge this presence as real and as all in all. How does this confirmation appear? As inner light, as illumination, as understanding, as Self-discovery, as a continuing and expanding sense of all-rightness! "
"llumination is a Fact. We have, however, grown accustomed to thinking it must always be the other fellow, the saint or the avatar, who experiences it, not ourself. Then, we wonder why those who have awakened have gone from the scene. We think of their withdrawal to lofty ivory towers where they sit in lonely solitude.
"Illumination," like all things sublime, creeps into the conscious awareness of the willing and childlike.
It enters on kitten's feet, unannounced.
It comes as the prophet said, "…here a little, there a little."
"But how do we know when we KNOW?"
We find ourselves with the Answer.
"What is the Answer?"
The answers to the problems that perplex us-and others.
"Do you know the answers?"
Those that, by God's grace, I have been shown, come to know, have proven and am finally given the courage to tell about.
"How can I know you know?"
You can look for yourself at the words that are written. You can ask and see if the answer you get is applicable in your affairs-and works in your heart..."
- William Samuel was a prolific writer of metaphysics, Truth, religion, science and Self-discovery. He was a beloved, humble, soft spoken, gentle light and spiritual teacher to many who were led to him.
