Step Two Hundred and Twenty-Three


Step 223. I Will Receive Knowledge This Day.
Upon the hour receive Knowledge. In your two deeper practice periods, receive Knowledge. Give yourself to receiving Knowledge. This is your practice for today. Everything else is merely a form of confusion. There is no event in your outer life that need replace your practice today, for Knowledge blesses all things within you and without. It dispels that which is unnecessary and purposefully engages you with that which is necessary and has true potential for you.

Return, then, to Knowledge, regardless of the circumstances of your outer life. Receive Knowledge so that you may have certainty in the world and so that you may understand your own meaning and value.

Practice 223: Two 30-minute practice periods. Hourly practice.

Here you will find pointers for getting started if this is your first encounter with this practice: Taking the Steps to Knowledge.

November 30, 2013 Round One: I am in particular need of receiving Knowledge this day. I wish to be engaged in that which is necessary and has true potential and not in that which brings confusion and despair. I have confidence that Knowledge will lead me in the right direction and I will find a way to help those who need my help.

March 15, 2015 Round Two: There is a saying “don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.” My take on that is: Gifts that are given from the heart should be received by the heart. Knowledge is a gift from the heart, from the heart of the Creator of All Life. I would be foolish not to receive it. So I am doing my utmost to open myself to Knowledge and receive its gifts. I don’t think there is anything more valuable in this life, and beyond.
February 16, Round Three: When I am not receiving Knowledge, I am engaged in some form of confusion. Receiving Knowledge dispels all the unnecessary. I am to receive Knowledge no matter what my outer circumstances, this takes top priority.

Step 317. I Need But Relinquish My Ambivalence To Know The Truth. How simple it is to know the truth when the truth is truly desired. How easy it is to recognize ambivalence and to see its devastating impact upon your life. How simple it is to see the evidence of ambivalence in the world around you and how it undermines the deeper inclinations of all who dwell here. Seek, then, escape from ambivalence, for this is confusion. Seek, then, escape from the burden of constant decision making and choice, for this is a burden. The man and woman of Knowledge need not burden themselves with constant deliberation of what they must do, how they must be, who they are and where they are going in life, for these things become known as each step is anticipated and taken. Thus, the great weight that you carry in the world is released from your shoulders. Thus, you begin to trust yourself and the world. Here peace is possible and assured even for those who are active in the world, for they ca

Step 312. There Are Greater Problems For Me To Solve In The World. Many of your personal problems will be resolved as you give yourself to a greater calling. Some of your personal problems you will need to attend to specifically, but even here you will find that their weight upon you will diminish as you enter into a greater arena of participation in life. Knowledge gives you greater things to do, but it does not overlook any detail of what you must accomplish. Therefore, small details and great details, small adjustments and great adjustments are all included. Nothing is left out. You yourself could not possibly balance your preparation in this respect, for you would not know how to establish your priorities between what is great and what is small. Your attempt to do so would merely push you deeper into confusion and frustration. Be grateful, then, that you have been spared from attempting the impossible for yourself, for what is real is given to you. What you must do is bec

Step 315. Today I Will Not Be Alone. Today do not be alone. Do not isolate yourself in your fear or in your negative imagination. Do not isolate yourself in your fantasies. Do not think you are alone, for this is a fantasy. Today do not be alone. Realize that those who are with you are not persuaded by your errors or dismayed by your failures, but recognize your true nature and your Knowledge. Those who are with you today love you without exception. Receive their love, for this will confirm that you are not alone, and this will confirm that you do not wish to be alone. Why else would you want to be alone except to hide your pain, your sense of failure and your sense of guilt? These things which are the result of your separation only isolate you further. Yet, today you are not alone. Therefore, choose not to be alone, and you will see that you have never been alone. Choose not to isolate yourself, and you will see that you are part of life already. Confirm this upon the hour a
