               A. The mind has the power to disrupt your viewpoint
            in the moment, but the power or vibration that has been
            divinely created to energize, empower, and control your
            own body, your entire life, is your soul, your true essence.
            however, due to the power the mind possesses, which has
            developed over an enormous span of time throughout
            the many lifetimes we have lived, the mind has over-
            powered the soul and usurped its position. Mind has led
            the way, mind has done the thinking, and mind has done
            the contemplating. Basically, the mind and intellect have
            created and produced all of your opinions, conclusions,
            conceptions, and perceptions. and, may I repeat, we have
            all been around for a very long time. Thus, the mind
            and its reasoning faculty, along with the evidence of the
            physical senses, have outcreated the soul – your very own
            precious soul. This means that when soul wants to give
            you a message or inspire you with divine love, a higher
            truth, or greater spiritual wisdom, ninety-five times out
            of a hundred it will be outcreated and overridden by the
            evidence or arguments of your own physical and men-
            tal senses.
                 In fact, this is also one of the greatest obstacles
            the Master must deal with, for his own students, as well
            as many well-intended seekers, usually view the Master
            and the Teachings in the same way they have experienced
            everything else throughout their entire lives – through the
            construct or vehicle of the mind. The mind is a machine,
            and it cannot even truly exist on its own, for the mind
            derives all of its power from the soul within the body. The
            mind alone cannot love, it cannot think, it cannot induce
            or deduce, nor can it initiate any action through its own
            volition. In all cases, one’s energy is first generated by
            the soul and it then filters down into the mind, allowing the
            mind to act in its mechanical and conditional ways.
