The Power of Thought – “Man’s greatness lies in the power of thought”
“Ninety percent of thought – force is wasted by the ordinary human being, and therefore, he is constantly committing blunders; the trained man or mind never makes a mistake.”
“Good & Evil thoughts are each a potent power, and they fill the universe. As vibration continues, so thought remains in the form of thought until translated into action.
For example, force is latent in the man’s arm until he strikes a blow, when he translates it into activity. We are the heirs of good and evil thought.
If we make ourselves pure and the instruments of good thoughts, these will enter us. The good soul will not be receptive to evil thoughts.”
“Whatever you do, devote your whole mind, heart, and soul to it.”
“It is our own mental attitude which makes the world what it is for us. Our thoughts make things beautiful; our thoughts make things ugly, the whole world in our minds. Learn to see things in the proper light.”
“We are responsible for what we are and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.”
