This Part opens with, “In order to express life there must be mind; nothing can exist without mind”.
That statement is similar to the old adage that, “if a tree falls in the woods, and there is no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?”
The answer is No. If the vibrations of ‘the noise of the tree falling’ are not received by an ear that can hear, or a mind to acknowledge the vibration, there is no sound.
It is in Part 25 that Charles Haanel goes really deep into the Laws of Nature, and the 7 Laws of the Mind.
I believe that if I hadn’t read the first 24 Parts of The Master Key System I would be really lost in these ‘lost chapters of the book’.
It is not my intention to explain, in great detail, all the important lessons in this part, but to inspire you to want to read it for yourself.
The statements made on Pranic Energy, and Freedom consisting of conscious harmonious relation with the laws of being, are just a couple that need to be consumed by the reader in it’s entirety, to get a clear understanding, so that one can apply what he/she learns.
I particularly liked the explanation on aging where “Age is a prejudice, which has become so firmly anchored in your mind that any causal number of years mentioned evokes a precise image on your brain”.
He breaks down what that image displayed looks like when we think of someone at 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and beyond 80 years of age. And then makes the point that “The person who has seen the untiring astronomical phenomenon forty times, may be much younger in the real meaning of the word then one who has seen it but thirty times”.
Everything that lives has periods of birth, growth and fruitage.
These periods are governed by the septimal law. The law of sevens governs the days of the week, the phases of the moon, the harmonies of sound, light, heat, electricity, magnetism and atomic structure.
The law of periodicity governs cycles of every description. And there are other periods when vise and crime rule with a high hand, periods of strikes and hard times, times of turmoil, confusion and disaster, and there are periods of reform.
STUDY BREAK: I know this is a lot to take in, because at times, when I am reading this stuff from Haanel, I am as bewildered as when I am ‘trying’ to understand the writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson.
And if you are still with me at this point in the Blog, I would be remise if I didn’t share the other reading that Mark Januszewski included in this weeks resources – As A Man Thinketh by James Allen. This short book is still very relevant, even though it was written in 1903, and I believe should be a mandatory resource in every personal library.
In closing, let me just say how much I appreciate you for reading my Blog, and following my Hero’s Journey with The Master Key Experience.
It is my honor and privilege to share this amazing content, and hope that you get some value for taking the time to read this.
Until next time, stay safe and be well,
Scott W. McAvoy

Phenomenal material, and such a great teacher, that Mark J. Thanks for the summary, Scott!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
I agree, Scott. We would all be lost in the woods without the MKE!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
I love your humorous reply Pamela and part of the funniness is it’s true–the Master Key Experience has helped me find my way to a purpose that inspires me. I’m definitely out of the woods!
I liked learning about some of the less well-known laws, Scott – thank you for an informative post! 🙂
Thanks Laura, I appreciate you taking the time to drop a comment on my Blog Post.
Wow! Thanks Scott! I appreciate your insight!!!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Scott, I love the mention of the “As a Man Thinketh” because we are “as we think.”
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
You are welcome. I love reading about your #MasterKeyExperience and I am amazed how similar it is to my own #HerosJourney. #ThereIsNothingLikeIt for sure. Thanks for sharing and replying to the comments. Love #CharlesHaanel and #RalphWaldoEmerson as well. I could get lost sometimes but reading about others thoughts and experiences helps me understand their works better.
I agree. I like to read others perspectives too. I can’t say that I understand Emerson just yet though, I am still working on that. Take care and see you around.
Boy, can I identify with struggling with reading Emerson – Mahalo for sharing your experience!
I agree Davene, Emerson and it is an opportunity to slow down my brain so I can increase my understanding.
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
I’m really enjoying reading this. Great content!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
i love this gotta have it for my personal growth
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
The law of sevens is so interesting to me. Thanks for bringing
this to mind again.
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Great, Scott, it’s great to see how you are continuing in your Hero’s Journey and sharing your experience!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
I love your use of the word “bewildered,” Scott! That’s why I love MasterMinding with you and everyone in the Master Key Experience. Getting through the wilderness on this stuff is SO REWARDING! Thanks for this blog!
Thank You for taking the time to comment. I appreciate your thoughtful insight.
It is amazing how fixed the images associated with different calendar ages are in our minds. How often do we talk ourselves into some “symptom of aging”? Your post makes the Master Key super intriguing!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Yup, we need to be aware of that cement about aging that is all around us! 🙂
The Master Key is definitely the personal growth course to take. Great sharing Scott.
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
You have inspired me to read all the chapters! Thank you!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Great post Scott. I too liked the explanation on aging where “Age is a prejudice, which has become so firmly anchored in your mind that any causal number of years mentioned evokes a precise image on your brain”. Shows me that I should not let my preconceived notions rule my thinking. Your friend, Linda
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Wow! I believe we all need that! All the power is within.
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Thank you, Scott. I agree with you. I have also found challenges in our reading. But how rewarding!
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Thank you for sharing your blog, it opens a lot of thought, looking forward to following your blog
Thank You for taking the time to comment.
Rearing its head above your post, Scott, like the watchful eyes of a stallion. I’m reminded of the Universal principles set forth in the Kybalion. Which summed together including Allen, make me certain how much you will appreciate the brand new release, “Thrive 2,” once you get a chance to see it.

Hey, Scott, I know we’ve done an effective job of commenting when we can ferret out a whole batch of cookie-cutter replies. LOL 🙂
Right. Thanks for exposing my laziness. 😉
LOL Well, as the chronologically youthful person that you are, down-playing your effort as you’ve done comes across as respectful humility; while if I were to do the same thing, given my more advanced age, it would come across as a less attractive product of senility. 🙂
thanks for sharing Scott. Great summary xx
Thanks for dropping a comment. I appreciate you.
Scott, I get important value from reading your blogs. Thank you. From your blog rover friend John.
Thanks John, I appreciate you. Have a blessed day.
Thanks Scott
Interesting stuff here! Thanks for your share and your take on it!!! 🙂
Thanks for dropping a comment. I appreciate you.
I loved the age comparison in this chapter! Thank you for giving me another perspective:)
Thanks Nicole, I appreciate you dropping a comment.
Hi Scott, interesting read and when I read this: “Everything that lives has periods of birth, growth and fruitage.”, it made me happy & grateful that I’ve discovered and benefitted from the Master Key Experience before the end of my “fruitage”! Great summary, I look forward to your next post! 🙂
Thanks Laura, I appreciate your comment. I am just getting caught up, so some new Posts to follow.
