Richard, I think if positive, or even not so positive, thinking comes from a more surface level of the mind, then the thoughts will not have much power. Only thoughts that come from the quieter levels of mind have power to heal, manifest, etc.

If you throw a pebble into a pond of water the effect will be ripples radiating out in waves to the edge of the pond. This analogy corresponds to the theory of cause and effect - causality. For everything that happens there is a cause and a corresponding effect - there is a relation between cause and effect. The question is, can a thought influence nature or our surroundings? Buddhist certainly think so, because one of the cardinal beliefs of Buddhism is to project good thoughts along with acts that do no harm to a living thing. So, if thought is energy it would have an effect on something, if nothing more than an effect on the mind itself. Some people think there is a relation between thoughts and the ability to cause physical change. It may be possible that positive thinking can influence the ability of the body to heal itself in a sick person.

I have to agree with past statements made by Barry - the Movement is dead and it is continually being re-buried by practices like this. >-------------------------------------------- > >On Sun, 11/24/13, dhamiltony2k5@... <dhamiltony2k5@...> wrote: >> >>Subject: [FairfieldLife] RE: TM Nazis, Again?? >>To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com >>Date: Sunday, November 24, 2013, 3:38 AM >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >>Overseers.
