Natural Law of Thought

"We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thought.
With our thoughts, we make our world."

The Buddha

Throughout my studies of the Natural/Spiritual Laws, I am reminded of the billions of people on this earth who are totally involved in negative thinking. This has brought them nothing but stress and a depressive state of being. Thinking is something everybody does and yet no one can see it happening. It is totally within the person. Not even people who claim to be “mind readers” can see or hear the thoughts of another person if that other person doesn’t want his/her thoughts read. Normally, thoughts can only be perceived, but not seen or heard until a person expresses them verbally. This is not to say that some people don’t contain their thought and they often radiate them psychically and so strongly that others are affected in a negative way – to put it mildly.

At one university, a young psychology student decided to do an experiment. While he was studying at the university library, one day, he decided to try and read the thoughts of other students there. As he listened mentally, he found that he was able to tune into other students, and he was extremely surprised at how easy it was. What he learned from his experience shook him terribly. He learned that a group of students were planning on committing a crime, a crime that would see a certain part of the university blown up. The young man alerted the campus police who put the group under surveillance and they were later able to stop the crime. So, some people are able to read other people’s minds, while others who could, just don’t.

As I thought about the meaning of the law of thought, it became obvious that what goes on inside another person’s head is “none of my business.” For me, or any person to try and read another person’s thoughts is an intrusion into their life and we don’t have that right. God gave all humanity total freewill, yes, but not to think and do whatever we wish. Doing whatever one wishes may have dire consequences. A person may end up in jail for the rest of their life, or worse. However, it’s still their privilege of freewill.

Freewill has been a gift and a curse. A gift when used for ones highest good and the good of society for the rewards it produces, and a curse, because it can be totally destructive. You may ask, “Why do people do the things they do?” it’s because they do have freewill. Freewill to think and choose where it is they will be born, whether or not they will starve to death by the age of 2, or die in a non-declared war, or at 106 years of age. It is written that we even choose the life and lessons that a physical life can give us, before we incarnate into this physical world. To think whatever we wish is a privilege of being alive.

Freewill is a privilege that makes the Law of Thought possible. We think therefore we are… Oh? Yes it is because we can think and through our thinking produce new products and services here in this physical world. Humans are continuously thinking up new things. No animal can do this. Can an animal produce the electronics that make up a computer? Can an animal or even an insect or ameba build a skyscraper? Not that I know of! There is not even a single word written that proves that animals, birds or insects can do or be anything but animals, birds and insects – they can only live by their instinct. So, let’s read about the Laws of Thought that was written by another person:

Law of Thought

Have you noticed that people with a negative outlook seem to be surrounded by negativity and negative thinking in general? [The Spiritual Natural Law of Attraction, like attracts like.] Think about the people who are chronically miserable complaining that the world has short changed them, others are always getting ahead faster than they are, and how things could be so much better if only things were done their way instead. Their world is largely a reflection of the negative thoughts that they generate.

Thoughts, both positive and negative, play a large role in our life. Our thoughts and our way of thinking are part of our being and vibration. Everyone is living in an ever – changing sea of thought. The waves, tides, and currents produced by our thoughts have an affect on others (and their thoughts affect us too.)

Don’t dismiss this by saying that your thoughts don’t have an affect on anything. They do. Negativity, bitterness, and jealousy cast darkness over your being as surely as love, kindness, and compassion spread sunshine. That sunshine (or darkness), affects how you feel and react to things and is also reflected towards others when you come into contact with them.

Thoughts are very powerful. Thoughts (with feelings behind them) are just as powerful as actions. Your thoughts (and your way of thinking) are the base for your being and vibration. Since “you are what you think” (to a degree), change your thinking for the better and you will change yourself as well. Of course, it won’t happen overnight, but will change overtime.

Your thoughts are not isolated to yourself. You don’t think in a vacuum. Others can perceive thoughts that have enough energy behind them. For in­stance, how many times has a friend or relative called you on the phone and you tell the person that you had just been thinking about him or her? Or vice versa? You probably just take this experience for granted, but there is more to it. You sent out a thought (most likely subconsciously). Your friend picked up on the thought (most likely subconsciously) even though they were many miles away from you.

A phone call is a simple example that shows the point, but do not dismiss this whole idea as trivial nonsense. It is not. And it is not as easy as arbitrarily thinking whatever you want and having it immediately happen either. If it worked that way then everyone would be a lottery winner and never have to work again!! There’s no “faking” here, be genuine. It bears repeating – thoughts (with feelings behind them) are just as powerful as actions, and everyone is living in an ever – changing sea of thought. If your friend on the earth plane is sensitive enough to pick up on your thoughts from time to time, you can be sure that the spirit people around you pick up on your thoughts also. Spirits are more sensitive than your friend on the earth plane and can perceive your thoughts more easily.

Consider the implications. Thought can travel any distance and be perceived by others. Thought can become a method of communication. Thought is the basis for Spirit communication.

Both thought and action are subject to Natural Laws. For example, if you’re thinking is negative you will draw negativity toward you (through the Law of Attraction). On the other hand, positive thinking and outlook will draw the positive toward you.

Law of Thought (2)

“Encompasses both the Law of Contradiction and the Law of Identity, the Law of Thought relates to the incalculable energy force of the universe. This law pervades all that there is. Since thought is also a process of communication, this law also encompasses the world of creative thought. Positive, creative thoughts create higher vibrations than negative thoughts. Each thought has three parts: the kind of thought (destructive or constructive), the direction of the thought, and the intensity of the thought. As one thinketh, so the person is. By our thoughts we meld our being. With constructive thoughts we can solve our problems and create a better way for all humankind.”
