The 1971-1981 Infinite Way Letters

The Journey Back to the Father's House
The 1979 Letters by Joel S. Goldsmith
Edited by Lorraine Sinkler

This book explains the necessity of attaining the mind of Christ
or the transcendental mind. The emphasis is on the importance of
going beyond the letter of truth, which is the truth that is known
in the mind, to achieving the Christ-mind. Goldsmith explains that
this takes time and practice and says "Every truth heard or read
that makes you feel it is truth, is a seed, that is being taken
into your consciousness. You can no more expect it to do something
for you tomorrow than if you planted an apple seed today and
expected to find apples growing in your yard tomorrow." The mind
of Christ is that Truth received from within our own being and
comes after time spent living by the letter of truth and opening
ourselves to hear the Word of God through meditation. We have to
become adept at meditation, so that we can hear the still small
voice. As he says "When God speaks, our problems dissolve…. When
we hear the voice of God, our entire universe changes."

He states very clearly that knowing the letter of truth is not
sufficient, we have to progress towards being taught by the spirit
or Christ within us, then our consciousness is changed. He says
"Nothing exists for us except what we become conscious of or aware
of. Therefore, if we would bring the grace of God into our
experience, we must consciously open our consciousness to the truth
that 'I and the Father are one.'"

This book demands that we go beyond mental knowledge to the
spiritual reality, which is within each of us.
