moon--Represents personal intelligence; the intellect.
Its light is supplied by the sun, symbol of spiritual light.
mortal beliefs--Beliefs in sickness, sin, poverty, trouble, accident, and death, which are prevalent in the race mind.
mortal consciousness--Consciousness of self as separate from God. This is a false consciousness. Consciousness must harmonize with God-Mind to be free from thoughts of poverty, sin, sickness, and death.
mortal ego--Identification of the I AM with the whole array of false race and individual mental patterns.
mortal plane--That realm of ideas conceived in mortal, or material consciousness.
mortal words--Words spoken by the intellectual man. They are empty because they lack the life and substance necessary to impart spiritual life and nourishment to the mind.
motherhood, divine--The brooding, nourishing element of Divine Mind, or God, in which spiritual ideals are brought to fruition.
mountain--A mountain represents an exalted state of mind where the divine plan may be perceived and unfolded; a state of spiritual realization.
The "high mountain" to which personality carries us in our spiritual uplift is the consciousness of power over mortal thought in all its earthly avenues of expression. Going up into the mountain to pray means elevating our thoughts and our aspirations to the spiritual viewpoint.
mule--Represents human will. When it is ridden and is obedient, it infers subjection of that faculty to the established order.
multitude--The "great multitude" of John 6:5 is composed of our own hungry thoughts. They want an influx of the Truth of Spirit into consciousness. "Man doth not live by bread only, but by everything that proceedeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live" (Deut. 8:3). |
