Hay-Ku of the Day (I Am in Command)

I Am in Command
Of the Boundless Still Point through
Which I Am Aware.

I Am in Command
Of the Breadth of Vision through
Which I Am Aware.

I Am in Command
Of the Boundless Focus of
Divine Awareness.

***

I Am in Command
Of both breadth of vision and 
Mental focal length.

I Am in Command
Of my mental focal length
And breadth of vision.

I Am in Command
Of the moment to moment
Breadth of Awareness.

***

I Am in Command
As the Aware Presence of
All Conscious Being.

I Am in Command
As the Conscious Awareness
Of Being God Is.

I Am in Command
As the Witnessing Presence
Of Aware Focus.

***

In Command of an
Adjustable focal point of
Absolute Focus.

In Command of a
Perfectly Adjustable 
Still Point of Focus.

In Command of a
Perfectly Expandable
Still Point of Focus.

***

A Dimensionless
Still Point of Infinitely
Adjustable breadth.

Extending Focal
Length and Breadth of Vision will
Restore Paradise.

Extending breadth of
Vision and focal length soon set
Mental captives free.

[Rich Note: A related and amazingly revelatory Part 1 from the  Neville Goddard "At Your Command" follows:
"Can man decree a thing and have it come to pass? Most decidedly he can! Man has always decreed that which has appeared in his world and is today decreeing that which is appearing in his world and shall continue to do so as long as man is conscious of being man. Not one thing has ever appeared in man’s world but what man decreed that it should. This you may deny, but try as you will you cannot disprove it, for this decreeing is based upon a changeless principle. You do not command things to appear by your words or loud affirmations. Such vain repetition is more often than not confirmation of the opposite. Decreeing is ever done in consciousness. That is; everyman is conscious of being that which he has decreed himself to be. The dumb
 man without using words is conscious of being dumb. Therefore he is decreeing himself to be dumb. When the Bible is read in this light you will find it to be the greatest scientific book ever written. Instead of looking upon the Bible as the historical record of an ancient civilization or the biography of the unusual life of Jesus, see it as a great psychological drama taking place in the consciousness of man. Claim it as your own and you will suddenly transform your world from the barren deserts of Egypt to the promised land of Canaan.

"Every one will agree with the statement that all things were made by God, and without him there is nothing made that is made, but what man does not agree upon is the identity of God. All the churches and priesthoods of the world disagree as to the identity and true nature of God. The Bible proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that Moses and the prophets were in one hundred per cent accord as to the identity and nature of God. And Jesus’ life and teachings are in agreement with the findings of the prophets of old. Moses discovered God to be man’s awareness of being, when he declared these little understood words, “I AM hath sent me unto you.” David sang in his psalms, “Be still and know that I AM God.” Isaiah declared, “I AM the Lord and there is none else. There is no God beside me. I girded thee, though thou hast not known me. I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil. I the Lord do all these things.”
 The awareness of being as God is stated hundreds of times in the New Testament. To name but a few: “I AM the shepherd, I AM the door; I AM the resurrection and the life; I AM the way; I AM the Alpha and Omega; I AM the beginning and the end”; and again, “Whom do you say that I AM?” It is not stated, “I, Jesus, am the door. I, Jesus am the way,” nor is it said, “Whom do you say that I, Jesus, am?” It is clearly stated, “I AM the way.” The awareness of being is the door through which the manifestations of life pass into the world of form.

"Consciousness is the resurrecting power – resurrecting that which man is conscious of being. Man is ever out-picturing that which he is conscious of being. This is the truth that makes man free, for man is always self-imprisoned or self-freed. If you, the reader, will give up all of your former beliefs in a God apart from yourself, and claim God as your awareness of being – as Jesus and the prophets did – you will transform your world with the realization that, “I and my father are one.” This statement, “I and my father are one, but my father is greater than I,” seems very confusing – but if interpreted in the light of what we have just said concerning the identity of God, you will find it very revealing. Consciousness, being God, is as ‘father.’ The thing that you are conscious of being is the ‘son’ bearing witness of his ‘father.’ It is like the conceiver and its conceptions. The conceiver is ever greater than his conceptions yet ever remains one with his conception. For instance; before you are conscious of being man, you are first conscious of being. Then you become conscious of being man. Yet you remain as
 conceiver, greater than your conception – man.
"Jesus discovered this glorious truth and declared himself to be one with God – not a God that man had fashioned. For he never recognized such a God. He said, “If any man should ever come, saying, ‘Look here or look there,’ believe them not, for the kingdom of God is within you.” Heaven is within you. Therefore, when it is recorded that “He went unto his father,” it is telling you that he rose in consciousness to the point where he was just conscious of being, thus transcending the limitations of his present conception of himself, called ‘Jesus.’"  -- Neville Goddard.

PS: Here's a link to the full version of "At Your Command" for those who might wish to read more of Neville's masterful, 14 page exposition on the "Principle of Expression" (Spiritual Law of Attraction and/or Manifestation as reflected  in the  preceding Scripture): 

(1) "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee." Proverbs 23:7 KJV

(2) "Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same." Job 4:8 KJV 

(3) "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33 KJV.
