"Heaven is HERE, and we are living in it NOW. Its harmony and order enter our consciousness to the extent that we come into correspondence with it.
We enter into Heaven, or the Heavenly Consciousness, when we acknowledge and realize that we are children of God, that we are thoughts or ideas of God, forever held in the Divine Mind as whole, perfect and good, and that other people are in the same relationship, and that we are all subject to the laws of Heaven, which are Love, Co-operation and Service.
The Lord IS The One Indwelling Spirit - The One Universal Spirit, therefore the Lord is in everyone, and when we are dealing with people, we are really dealing with the Lord. The realization of this truth should make our conduct towards others more kindly and considerate."

From The Way of The Practical Mystic by Henry Thomas Hamblin
