Self Help: The Law Of Attraction Works!
The mind of a man,can be compared to a garden. This he can cultivate in an intelligent manner,or he can allow it to run wild and become covered with weeds. If no useful seeds are put into it, then an abundance of useless weed-seeds will
fall therein, and will continue to produce their kind.
Just as a gardener cultivates his plot, keeping it free from
weeds, and growing the flowers and fruits which he requires so may
a man tend the garden of his mind, weeding out all the wrong,
useless and impure thoughts, and cultivating toward perfection the
flowers and fruits of right, useful and pure thoughts.
If he decides to go the way of cultivating his mind he becomes in charge of his life,the master gardener of his soul He also reveals, within himself, the flaws of thought, and understands, with ever increasing accuracy, how the thought-forces and mind elements operate in the shaping of character, circumstances, and destiny.
Thought and character are one, and as character can only
manifest and discover itself through environment and
circumstance, the outer conditions of a person’s life will always be
found to be harmoniously related to his inner state.
This does not mean that a man’s circumstances at any given time are an
indication of his entire character, but that those circumstances are
so intimately connected with some vital thought-element within
himself that, for the time being, they are indispensable to his
development.
The law of a man’s being determines where he is; his thoughts are responsible for getting him where he is today. There is no room for an element of chance. Everything is the result of a divine law that does not err. This law works with all, wether one is out of harmony withhis surroundings or wether he is quite contented with it.
As a progressive and evolving being, man is where he is that he
may learn that he may grow; and as he learns the spiritual lesson
which any circumstance contains for him, it passes away and gives
place to other circumstances.
Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes
himself to be the creature of outside conditions, but when he
realizes that he is a creative power, and that he may command the
hidden soil and seeds of his being out of which circumstances grow;
he then becomes the rightful master of himself.
That circumstances grow out of thought every man knows who
has for any length of time practiced self-control and self purification,
for he will have noticed that the alteration in his circumstances has been in exact ratio with his altered mental condition.
This is so true and can be noticed when a man applies himself sincerely to make right the defects in his character,for he makes swift and rapid progress while passing through a myriad of vicissitudes.
The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors, that which it
loves, and also that which it fears. It reaches the height of its
cherished aspirations; it falls to the level of its unchastened desires,
and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives it own.
We must become aware that every though sown or allowed to descend upon the mind,takes root there, and when allowed to germinate ,grow and develop, produces its own fruit of opportunity and circumstance.
The outer world of circumstances shapes itself to the inner
world of thought, and both pleasant and unpleasant external
conditions are factors which make for the ultimate good of the
individual. As the reaper of his own harvest, man learns both of
suffering and bliss.
