" But, once you know that consciousness is the only reality and is the sole creator of your particular world and have burnt this truth into your whole being, then you know that success or failure is entirely in your own hands. Whether or not you are disciplined enough to sustain the required state of consciousness in specific instances has no bearing on the truth of the law itself — that an assumption, if persisted in, will harden into truth. The certainty of the truth of this law must remain despite great disappointment and tragedy — even when you 'see the light of life go out and all the world go on as though it were still okay'. "
