The Superbings of John Randall Price

Price suggests that we are here as humans for a purpose: to find our way back to God. He provides ways to do this. This is a classic in the spirituality/metaphysics library, a book as relevant today as it was when it was published in 1981. I remain amazed, and I suppose I shouldn’t, that we knew so much more than 20 years ago. While each year new information comes to light and we find new tools to help, there is validity and truth to this book.

I keep wondering if we are learning or just reprocessing information and not growing from it. I am as guilty as anyone of the continued search. I like the saying I read recently that at some point we must stop “searching” and accept that we have found the answers. I’m feeling that the time is now. We can no longer simply intellectualize our spirituality and be content with our ongoing search. Soon we must come to terms with our own Truth, what we know we must do, and then just do it. Sacred study and practice may continue, provided they are combined with the same amount of sacred action.

Price offers practical suggestions. He points out that the power of the universe can work through us only when it “finds a consciousness that is in tune with its nature.” Our job is to make sure that our consciousness is open and in harmony with nature. “God can only do for you what he can do through you. God is your Higher Self.” That cannot be done by reading.

That must be done living. And that living should not be just an emotional response to life. Living is transcending, not ignoring, our emotions reacting differently to our daily encounters.

If we begin to look at our lives from the point of view of our Higher Self, our inner God, we might find a different answer. We may want to be healthier, richer, and more fulfilled, because we help the world when we help ourselves. We do this by raising our vibrations and making ourselves lighter. Price believes that the “power of light…is slowly straightening the earth, correcting the tilt and bringing it into balance.” From that point of view, humans are evolving. Again, Price knew this, as did many others, more than 20 years ago. What have we, as individuals, done to live better in that time?

Price points out that raising our vibrations is more than just positive thinking. We must learn to work with the Power and Energy of the universe to expand our consciousness. It reminds us of the universal law of Cause and Effect: We are what we think. We have to think better thoughts. He provides ways to do it:

Determine what you really want.
Accept the fulfillment of your desires.
Combine your intellectual awareness and your feelings.
Balance your mind and heart
Don’t worry about how the wish will come true; just say it.
Fill yourself with gratitude that your wishes have already been fulfilled
Be active; don’t sit around waiting.

Is this new information? No. Is it still valuable and real? Absolutely. Perhaps now we can start to be serious and incorporate this into our lives. Raising our vibrations is the way to change our lives and the world. Price knows it. We know. We just have to do it.
