    Appendix: Seminar Outline

    Understanding Your Emotional Self: Session 1 Part 1

    1. Introduction

    What we would like to discuss with you today is a basic principle that we feel is the main reason why no real soul change has occurred for most people who hear Divine Truth. So the subject of today's discussion is part of the Relationship with God series, and we're calling it Understanding Your Emotional Self.

    Now the reason why we've decided to have this chat with you today is because we feel the majority of people still don't understand one of the basic principles of the Way to God. And that basic principle is this - without you becoming a fully-fledged, 100% emotional being, you'll never have a relationship with God. Without you becoming a fully-fledged, 100% emotional being, there is no way that you'll ever become at-one with God.

    What we would like to talk to you about is how you do that, and the contrast between that and what many of you are currently doing, and how much many of you invest in your emotions rather than actually allow your emotions. We'll talk about what we mean by investing in them in comparison to allowing them. We'll talk about how many of you want to talk about emotion rather than feeling emotion.

    No real change can occur without you understanding that your soul is going to be 100% emotional, that you're going to be emotional all the time. Once you're at-one with God, you will be emotional all the time.

    2. Our current state is completely out of harmony with how God designed us to be

    The first thing we would like to say to you is this. The way you see things at the moment, the way you hear things, the way you interpret things, the way you taste things and the way you touch things, the way you believe things to be with your intellect, the way you analyse things, the way you feel things at the moment, the way you see the universe around you, the way you see God and yourself and others around you - all of it is out of harmony with how God sees you.

    Do you know how we know that? Because if it was in harmony with how God sees you, you would already be at-one with God. So what I'm basically saying to you is even the very way in which you think is completely out of harmony with the way God originally designed you to think. The way that you currently feel is out of harmony with the way God designed you to feel. The key is to not get all complicated about that, but to realize the truth of that - that the way God designed you to be is not the way you currently are. The way you currently are has been completely controlled and manipulated by the environment in which you have lived. And that environment has been completely the opposite way of dealing with anything than the way God originally designed you to deal with everything: completely the opposite.

    Now I feel most of us have no concept of that at this stage. We believe the life we currently have is reality, and it's not from God's perspective. It's not. And we are so addicted to this reality that we think that we understand what's being said to us when we have a discussion about Divine Truth, and we don't. What we have instead is even our thought and intellectual processes have been distorted so much by the environment in which we live that it's impossible for us to really understand what's going on; what's even being said to us. We interpret every statement of what's said to us through the filters that have all been distorted. It's like having a great big filter, like a water filter, and having it coloured with
