"People must not be afraid to take second step.'
It seemed and still seems to have two sides.
First of all, it seems connected with a quite
new scale of attention, permanent attention,
remembering all the time, as a continual state.
We have to demand from ourselves.
But it also seemed connected with the realization
that quite new things are possible, that higher
influences are much nearer than we thought,
and that with their help our ordinary self,
the machine, can actually be transcended.
These two sides are inseparable, each impossible
alone, but each making the other possible.
Only one has to believe that it is possible.
The slightest breath of doubt, not only of those
higher forces but of oneself, immediately seems
to cut one off from new possibilities.
Perhaps one has not only to believe new things
possible, but to be sure that they will come."
- Rodney Collin quoting Ouspensky in
The Theory of Conscious Harmony
