Emotions

Thoughts are living things, they are light flashes, impulses of the brain. These light impulses are made up of a very rarified and fine matter that has weight and can be detected by a very sensitive instrument. At Duke University, they experimented with test subjects who would touch an instrument and think a certain thought and the instrument registered the thought. You can measure the power of your thoughts with this knowledge. In this lesson, we begin to understand that thoughts are THINGS, LIVING THINGS. Thoughts are made of a material form which is more rare in nature and construction than our material body.

These thought forms remain in or near the action field of the person who entertains these thoughts. They unite with forms of the same kind. If all of us could hold the same thought, that thought would increase in strength. I would call these Thought Beings. NOW PAY ATTENTION!!! They are like small clouds all around us. Since thoughts are living things, living in a cloud form, they need to be fed. We need to understand that thoughts are living entities of a definite order and class. They depend on the light power of the brain in which they originated. These Beings with their force will intrigue, if allowed and even get their creator to maintain them with the same thought power out of which they were created. I will try to describe to you the way in which this compulsion is carried out by the offspring of your thoughts.

If you have a certain idea and keep thinking about this idea, you create what we call an Elemental. These Elementals are all around you. If these thoughts are fortified by the act of accumulation of other thoughts, this particular thought becomes a living thing, then turns on you and causes you to do what you are thinking. Are we creators of our destiny, or not? NOW PAY ATTENTION!!! When a human being succumbs to this very natural compulsion, (this is done almost hourly) then from these mental clouds, circulating within the field, we can see forms arise. The most expressive outer characteristic of these forms are the eyes. The size of the form is according to the measure of the thought the form is being mentally fed. Once the elemental(s) are formed, if they are constantly being fed by one or more thought, it's eyes will emanate a powerful paralyzing influence energy increasing in force. The human being, hypnotized by its own mental off-spring, is driven to a series of actions and thereby is driven into slavery by it's own Elemental. "Know ye not that ye are creators."  Many times people have said , "I don't know what made me do or say it."  It was your own thought creation, ether consciously or subconsciously. You created a elemental by your own thinking, you fed it, it became a living thing and started to influence you. "YOUR OWN CREATION." In this way, all of us in the course of the ages have become slaves of our own delusions, of our prejudices, preconceived ideas, dogmas, vices and superstitions. These have taken shape in our field of restoration through the working of our own thoughts which we have kept up, which we have fed until they finally began to dominate us. The cloud that I spoke of earlier, starts on the right side of the body at the level of solar plexus, ascends to the top of the head, then descends down the left side of the body and appears at the solar plexus.

How often have we heard someone say, "I would like to change myself, but I can't do it." The life conduct that we often regret and powerlessly resist is the attitude which often embitters our life. Because we grow disgusted with ourselves, we are in danger of losing our self-respect. This is a result of the compulsion that is emanating from our wrong thinking habits, due to our own mental process. Does it pay to think good thoughts?

Mankind is ill, fatally ill. Mankind is a victim of his own creative passions and there is no earthly man to whom this statement does not apply. The fact is that every second, man abuses the creative facility of his brain, (does not think right) which causes him or her to feel helpless and at the mercy of the events in their life.

How many times have people said "I don't do the things I want, but I do the things I hate."
