I Think Therefore It Happens

Last week, Peg left the following comment  on some things I said about our senses etc..

"Regarding last week's post about our senses, what interests me is covered in The Secret and what some call The Law of Attraction: that thoughts have a frequency and Like Attracts Like. The Concieve-Believe-Achieve theory, The Power of your Subconscious Mind. I think we are able to do a lot more than we realize we can do, if we make use of all our facilities."

There is no question that we are able to do a lot more than we think we can do.  We limit ourselves by negative thoughts and visions of impossibility.    Now some things are impossible under the circumstances such as neither I nor Peg will dunk a basketball unless the baskets come down from their present height of ten feet or we get a ladder or something.  But when it comes to manifesting things that we want in life then that is a different story.

In the early 1900's Napoleon Hill interviewed Andrew Carnegie and Carnegie took him on as friend and confidante.  In 1939 Hill published a book based on the success stories of Carnegie as well as other wealthy men of that era.  That book was Think and Grow Rich. And the time was right in America for men and perhaps women as well to develop an idea and accumulate wealth as a result.  This had its parallel in Genesis when God took unformed substance and gave it activity to form the earth and the stars as well.  Hill discusses in his book the secrets and practices of these wealthy men which allowed them to think and dream and visualize how to manifest those into material wealth and abundance.

Eric Amidi, also known as "Dr. E", gave the best description of the process in his book titled The Secret Behind the Secret.   He described the process as from the consciousness to the sub-consciousness to what may be called a super-consciousness.  This super-consciousness is sometimes described as a pool of consciousness or other repository where everything is stored that ever has been, is now and ever will be.  So the thought goes from the consciousness to the sub-consciousness to the super-consciousness from where it is manifested into material things.  So thoughts go from the consciousness to the sub-consciousness to super-consciousness for manifestation.  And this is reminiscent of some of the ideas coming out of quantum physics today.

Next week I will discuss how this is made to happen.  In the meantime let us have your comments since they do stimulate ideas and discussion.
