You Are What You Think, And So Is The World Around You

Man is a creative being. He creates via two centers of activity: the lower and the higher. The lower creative center lies in the area of the genitals and, via cooperation between the sexes, results in the generation of a physical human shell that will unite with a returning microcosm to introduce a new personality into the physical world.

The higher creative center lies in the head sanctuary. Here the Mind creates via thought. The offspring of our thoughts are manifested in the words that we speak and in our actions.

We are going to discuss the latter creative activity - thought - which man has not learned to properly utilize. Because man does not understand the power of his thoughts, he creates in ignorance and gives birth to horrible 'creatures'.

As you may know there are several grades, or planes, of astral matter that form the universe. This Primordial astral matter is divided into seven major Cosmic Planes. Those seven Cosmic Planes are further sub-divided into seven divisions, which are, in turn, sub-sub-divided into seven more divisions and so on. In this manner, a nearly infinite number of astral sub-divisions exist in this Dualistic universe.

We will restrict this post to the 7th Cosmic Plane, the 3rd-density, physical-etheric plane that we experience in. Within this physical plane, man has bodies corresponding to all seven astral sub-divisions but is only conscious of one, the physical body. He has very little knowledge of his etheric double (the vital body), almost no knowledge of his astral body (the desire body) and is completely unaware of his mental body. Man must learn to recognize and understand these "invisible" bodies if he is ever to recognize his True Purpose or to understand the forces that are arrayed against him.

All matter is astral matter. What distinguishes the different types of astral matter is the level of vibration. Higher, Spiritual matter vibrates at an incredibly high rate. As this astral substance drops in vibration, it becomes a little less subtle. At each step-down in vibration, a slightly coarser, slightly less-spiritual plane of astral matter is extruded. This cascade effect continues until it finally reaches a nadir, a place where the vibration of astral matter is so slow that this matter almost crystallizes. This crystallization results in what we call physical atoms.

As above, so below. Just as the astral matter of the individual planes and sub-planes changes as it drops in vibration, so does the astral matter in the human-being. When a man has a thought, that thought is a living thing. The thought projects into mental matter a vibration in line with the nature of the thought. This thought-vibration is instantly transferred to the astral material of the human and thus the desire body is conditioned in a manner that is compatible with the nature of the thought. There, man has his 'feeling' about the thought.

If the desire body contains any material that resonates with the vibration of the thought, comparable etheric material is extruded from the astral body and passed to the etheric body. Here, the hormones and the nervous system cooperate to put in motion the action or actions that will correspond with the original thought-feeling. Because the etheric body is the matrix that vitalizes the physical shell, the physical body is infused with the etheric distillation of the original thought-vibration created in the astral matter of the mental body.

So we have thought initiating desire, desire initiating activity, activity manifesting in the material of the physical body. This all happens in the space of a microsecond. You should understand that it is via this pathway that Thought moves and conditions the Physical Body.

The above is the most rudimentary and simplified outline of what is actually a vast subject. However, it is enough to give those with discernment something to pause and consider.

All physical illness is the direct result of consistent and habitual poor thinking. From the smallest pimple to the most devastating cancer, it is our Thinking that constitutes the root cause of all disease. From the least of our actions to the most significant, it is Thought that conceives and gives birth to the Act.

Abuse of the lower creative function manifesting as sexual indiscretion and promiscuity has led to disastrous results for mankind. Broken homes, dysfunctional childhoods and rampant sexually-transmitted diseases plague mankind. Abuse of the higher creative function via selfish and corrupt thinking has resulted in a world where control by The Few perpetuates war, poverty, famine and disease.

Thought is the horse that draws the cart. Everything within us and around us is a direct result of both our individual and collective thought processes. In order to change things we must break the habit of mechanically acting upon the thoughts that "pop into our heads", and learn to think consciously. We must re-direct our thoughts away from the selfish and the vengeful, to thoughts of unselfishness and Love for all, no matter who they may be. It is not the outer personality of an entity that matters, but the Soul-spark within that we must honor.

Think before you allow your thoughts to give birth to any act in this world. Do not continue to contribute to mankind's misery with your poor thinking. Purify your thinking and you will purify your mental body, your emotional body, your etheric body and the physical body. You will radiate a more purified aura and thereby benefit your fellow man and the earth. Oh, and one's personal health will benefit as well, for the low-vibrating viruses that cause disease cannot survive in an aura of high vibration. This all begins with the vigilant policing of our thoughts.

Learn to Think, truly.
