We have the power to choose our thoughts and we have the ability to control and guide our feelings. It all depends on our desire and commitment to be better, more loving, healthier, and more all-inclusive. Planting new seeds of lovely and good thoughts in our minds will bring us the blossoms and blessings we are yearning for, because in the mental realm the Law of Cause and Effect is always in operation. There is no such thing as getting away with wrong doing, wrong acting, or even wrong thinking, in this world of Universal Consciousness. This Law is fair and just, and cannot be altered. It just is.
Many call this law Karma, but whatever your name for it is, you must be aware of the consequences you will experience if you do not adhere to its rules. This is not meant to be a warning; it is only a statement of Truth. Going a bit further with this idea, the Law of Cause and Effect has more potency than Karma. Karma suggests that all of your deeds will be rewarded or punished. The Law of Cause and Effect, however, includes your health, your experiences in their entirety, your relationships, your progress in unfoldment, frankly your life.
Our thoughts are blossoms of the mind. Some unattended notions will come quickly and wilt away. Some concepts are nurtured and cared for; seeds put into fertile soil. The purpose of flowers is to bloom beautifully for our enjoyment, and even after they are spent, reaching full fruition, they turn into more seeds, ready to produce more beauty. So it is with our thoughts. Our mind is our garden and we are the caretakers, responsible for the mental blooms and the spiritual fruits.
Seeds produce more after their own kind – just like our good thoughts produce more good thoughts. Regrettably, wrong or ignorant thoughts work the same way. They produce wrong and ignorant, unhealthy outcomes. So it is pertinent to our unfoldment to keep the good in the forefront of our minds. A steady focus on our thought patterns, and habits, will assure that we are on the right path, paving our road with a sturdy surface and not walking on quick sand.
See, everything is mental. There is nothing that is made of matter; nothing on this plane is solid. It is only our dream-vision that makes it so. A movie, our particular motion picture of life – we, each and every one of us, created what we see and experience. We are the writer, director, actor, editor and watcher of the screen play we are putting on, right here and right now, on this earth. So the focus needs to be on the spiritual development, mind-matters, and not on material things. Material things will naturally be added on, once the mind is at ease and has reclaimed its power.
Do not forget who you are. You are born pure and of spirit. You merely forgot your birthright, your heritage. This is only the beginning. A mortal dream, lived to help us grow and learn, and to unfold our understanding of the workings of our minds. We are in kindergarten, so to speak, where we are taught to remember life’s true nature and its glorious promise. The workings of Mind shall be revealed to us step by step, and together we achieve the ultimate state of being, which is Peace, Happiness and most of all Love.
