Putting the false sense of self out of business

VIRGINIA F. DUNN

For the business man or woman nothing is more freeing than getting rid of a false sense of self. This false sense may destroy one's peace by fostering the feeling of being a personal success or a personal failure, or perhaps the victim of circumstances or of other people. It may even suggest that one is justified in using any legal methods in business—however morally questionable they may be—in order to provide for one's dependents.

Christian Science refutes this and gives us a higher sense of self and family. It explains that we are really expressions of infinite, divine Love; that our family members are actually God's children. In this way it gives us a basis for a higher standard of action.
