Because all the methods of Mind are not understood, we say the lips or hands must move in order to convey 212:27 thought, that the undulations of the air convey sound, and possibly that other methods involve so-called miracles. The realities of being, its 212:30 normal action, and the origin of all things are unseen to mortal sense; whereas the unreal and imitative move- ments of mortal belief, which would reverse the immortal 213:1 modus and action, are styled the real. Whoever con- tradicts this mortal mind supposition of reality is called 213:3 a deceiver, or is said to be deceived. Of a man it has been said, "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he;" hence as a man spiritually /understandeth/, so is he in truth. Good indefinable 213:6 Mortal mind conceives of something as either liquid or solid, and then classifies it materially. Immortal and spiritual facts exist apart from this mortal and 213:9 material conception. God, good, is self-exist- ent and self-expressed, though indefinable as a whole. Every step towards goodness is a departure from materi- 213:12 ality, and is a tendency towards God, Spirit. Material theories partially paralyze this attraction towards infinite and eternal good by an opposite attraction towards the 213:15 finite, temporary, and discordant. Sound is a mental impression made on mortal belief. The ear does not really hear. Divine Science reveals 213:18 sound as communicated through the senses of Soul - through spiritual understanding. Music, rhythm of head and heart Mozart experienced more than he expressed. The 213:21 rapture of his grandest symphonies was never heard. He was a musician beyond what the world knew. This was even more strikingly true of Beet- 213:24 hoven, who was so long hopelessly deaf. Men- tal melodies and strains of sweetest music supersede con- scious sound. Music is the rhythm of head and heart. 213:27 Mortal mind is the harp of many strings, discoursing either discord or harmony according as the hand, which sweeps over it, is human or divine. 213:30 Before human knowledge dipped to its depths into a false sense of things, - into belief in material origins which discard the one Mind and true source of being, - 214:1 it is possible that the impressions from Truth were as distinct as sound, and that they came as sound to the 214:3 primitive prophets. If the medium of hearing is wholly spiritual, it is normal and indestructible. If Enoch's perception had been confined to the evidence 214:6 before his material senses, he could never have "walked with God," nor been guided into the demonstration of life eternal.
