Thought (Consciousness): The Intangible Force of Creation

by Michael Corthell

The writer/poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox gave evidence of her understanding of the supreme, intangible force of the subconscious mind in this verse:

“You never can tell what a thought will do

In bringing you hate or love—

For thoughts are things, and their airy wings

Are swifter than carrier doves.

They follow the law of the universe—

Each thing creates its kind,

And they speed O’er the track to bring you back

Whatever went out from your mind.”

Yes, the greatest intangible force in the Universe is thought. A THOUGHT. Thinking about possible positive outcomes will create IDEAS (thoughts) that lead to positive results. Period.

 ''And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.''

—Genesis 1:3

God allowed light to enter into being. Even for God to do so required a thought. ONE thought. The singularity. We, being created by Him, in His image (a representation) use the very same formula to manifest matter. We translate and transmute thoughts into things. It can be no other way. The intangible becomes tangible. Energy becomes matter, and matter reverts back to energy. Life cycle. This foundational principle of how the Universe was created is raw and simple just as the foundation of all matter. Starting with the construction of one hydrogen atom. Then another and another...then squeezing a whole bunch of them together to form a star. Very simple stuff. The complexity as we know is in the details with the devil, so to speak.

There are two major units of the mind. The conscious, curious, self-aware decision-making part. And the buried, backroom, behind the curtain part. The former guards and feeds the latter.

The subconscious mind is molded by the thoughts presented to it in proportion to the level of emotion or feeling attached to those thoughts. Logical or cold ideas have much less attachment value. In fact, it is this writer's opinion, that only thoughts attached with strong feelings have any influence on the subconscious mind. I also know that emotion or feeling rules the behavior of mankind. We use it in marking and advertising every day. Politicians are masters of it. 

What then, is the evidence of a person who has mastered the harnessing of the intangible force? You see it. They 'seem' to be people who attract good things. They appear 'lucky' or blessed. (they are very blessed, believe me, because they know the 'secret'). They are active people and they get the job done. 

A thought can be positive or negative. It can be light or it can be dark. It is the universal way of being because the Universe and all the laws that govern it are the same way. It is the duality of existence. It is digital if you will. On/Off. Binary code like this: 01100001. For every 'inside', there is an 'outside'.

A Practical Lesson

There are seven primary positive emotions and seven primary negative emotions. The negatives voluntarily inject themselves into our thoughts, so we must take charge consciously, be proactive in our thinking to influence and create positive outcomes.

          THERE ARE SEVEN (7) PRIMARY POSITIVE (+) EMOTIONS

• The emotion of DESIRE
• The emotion of FAITH
• The emotion of LOVE
• The emotion of SEX
• The emotion of ENTHUSIASM
• The emotion of ROMANCE
• The emotion of HOPE
  
  THERE ARE SEVEN (7) PRIMARY NEGATIVE (-) EMOTIONS

• The emotion of FEAR
• The emotion of JEALOUSY
• The emotion of HATRED
• The emotion of REVENGE
• The emotion of GREED
• The emotion of SUPERSTITION
• The emotion of ANGER

These emotions can't exist in your mind at the same time. Therefore they are your choice! One or the other must dominate your mind. Again, you choose your dominating thoughts. It is your responsibility to make sure that positive emotions dominate your thinking.

Remember that your dominating thoughts attract, by a definite law of nature. This is done by the shortest and most convenient route, (nature is very efficient). Guard against negative influences by being careful what your thoughts land on. Dwelling on the negative just contributes to a negative's power.

What Kind of Reality are You Creating?

Reality isn't something you perceive; it's something you create in your mind. Isaac Lidsky learned this profound lesson firsthand when unexpected life circumstances yielded valuable insights. In this introspective, personal talk, he challenges us to let go of excuses, assumptions, and fears, and accept the awesome responsibility of being the creators of our own reality.
