Until now, we have directed our hearts and efforts toward the external world to find fulfillment for our desires and satisfaction, and all of us have been deeply disappointed. This is because the hunger everyone feels for satisfaction is actually the cry of a homesick child for its Father-Mother—God This gender-neutral phrasing for the Divine was a hallmark of the New Thought movement, emphasizing God as both the source of strength and nurturing love.. It is simply the Spirit's desire within us to emerge into our consciousness as greater and greater perfection, until we become fully conscious of our oneness with All-Perfection. A person has never been, and can never be, satisfied with anything less.
Each of us has direct access through the Father within us—the central "I" of our being—to the great whole of life, love, wisdom, and power, which is God. What we want to know now is how to receive more from this Fountainhead original: "Fountainhead"; refers to the original source of a stream, used here to describe God as the source of all things. and how to make more and more of God (which is simply another name for the All-Good) manifest in our daily lives.
There is only one Source of Being. That Source is the living fountain of All-Good—whether it is life, love, wisdom, power, or anything else—the Giver of all good gifts. That Source and you are connected every moment of your existence. You have the power to draw upon this Source for all the good you are, or ever will be, capable of desiring.
In the first lesson, we learned that the real substance within everything we see is God. We learned that all things are one and the same Spirit appearing in different degrees of manifestation. All the various forms of life are simply the same one Life emerging from the invisible into visible forms. All the intelligence and wisdom in the world is God acting as Wisdom in various degrees of manifestation. Finally, all the love that people feel and express to others is just a small amount, so to speak, of God as Love becoming visible through the human form.
Now, when we say there is only one Mind in the entire universe, and that this is the Mind which is God, some people will immediately understand. Having followed the first lesson and recognized God as the one Life, one Spirit, and one Power expressing itself in various degrees through people and things, they will say, "Yes, that is all clear."
But someone else will ask, "If God is the only Mind that exists, then how can I think wrong thoughts, or any thoughts other than God's thoughts?"
